R I N Owhat would one expect?
But he all but endorsed Obama in 2008, so why be surprised? It's a black thing.
Shocked face!
I'll be voting for he?
How sad. He has his and could give a damn less about the decimated black community.
Colin, we hardly knew ye.
Another word comes to mind. Treason.
Iam casting MY vote based on the content of the candidates' characters--and NOT on the color of their skins.I don't think Colin Powell can say that.
Colin Powell has always been all about race... never about America.
Who knew Colin was a statist?
Thought General Halftrack had finally retired to Uncle Sugar's Old Soldiers" Home on Upshur Street?
No surprise there, He is proving he was a token General. I remember when he hung Scooter Libby out to dry, too.
The new Websters Dictionary will have Powells' picture in the definition of Racist. It's amazing how many people cannot look past the color of skin to see what lies beneath the surface...
FTA..he criticized Republican challenger Mitt Romney's stance on foreign policy.The affirmative action General approves of the affrimative action Pres ignoring Muslims murdering Americans.Black is more important to him than country!
Powell is the reason we had to return to Iraq to finish what should have been finished under Bush 41. Had the Iraqis on the ropes and gave up.
powell has no integrity. He's a kindred spirit to obama. Therefore, this endorsement is entirely predictable.
You sir, Colin Powell are an inexcusable racist.
Word is in the beltway he was always just a political animal, nothing more, crawling his way to the top of the military establishment (being 'clean, articulate..." etc. to quote Biden didn't hurt.)
Minor surprise, major disappointment, no impact.
He da racist.
le doosh bag, he speak.
"...voting for he..." Somehow, this supposedly simple error saddens me as much as the unsurprising endorsement. Poster 6 nailed it.
Still, a massive downer for me. I just got back from a charity trip to a 3rd world country not far from the USA. My group gave its time, money and effort to help out. For that, we were called names (I speak their language enough)by the people we went to help. I feel and felt betrayed by them and now by Powell. He is not the man I thought he was....to much like Obama I now realize. He can hang in the closet with Barry and the other empty suits.
Too bad I cancelled out his vote when I voted on Monday.
I remember when the Bush1's Iraq war was going on Swartzkroft was the one doing all the leading then once victory was at hand Powell stepped in to take all the credit. I've had a low opinion of Powell since. I'd like to know what Swartzkroft and the other leaders in the military think of Powell.
It is indeed #2. When I think of the time and the education, the quotas and reparations, affirmative action and special considerations, and they were all for naught. First, foremost and always the vast majority of blacks will vote skin color.
Face it, he was and always will be under the shadow of Affirmative Action. He knows what said his bread (pumpernickel) is buttered on.
"side" not "said".
For anyone who was ever in doubt, this confirms that Colon Pow was indeed and Affirmative Action baby.
Once Powell had played 41 & 43 for all he could get, he got in touch with his inner Rat.
The senior Army guys always knew he was a token general. What a fraud. I guess it takes a fraud to endorse a fraud.
Thsi idiot still thinks that Oblama is black. Cut off his pension.
affirmative action negro
#15, that is my biggest problem with Colin Powell. It was a bad decision from an historical perspective. It was easy enough to see, at the time, that it was going to be a bad decision. Just days and weeks proved it so when there was an uprising of Iraqis and the US stood by and let them be slaughtered by Hussein as he reasserted his power.We did not get any input to override that bad decision. Thankfully, this bad decision on his part will be overridden by the voters.
Well then, once President Romney has settled into the WH, Powell can just crawl away and go back to being completely irrelevant.
Maybe he likes his policies. All these folks crying racist may be the true racist. I disagree with his endorsement, but maybe those of you who are white are supportign Romney for that reason. You can say all you want that it is about the unemployment rate, defense, economic issues
Colin always was a Politically Correct wuss. He is going with Solbama again for the same reason he called off the A-10s on the "highway of death". He can't stand any controversy. He was and remains weak. A puny man who advanced only because of the color of his skin. Sound familiar?
I once thought highly of the man even though he supported the unknown in 2008. The knowns now prove to have made this a terrible decision. To double down exposes a total lack of wisdom and deductive reasoning.
And this is news because.............?
How many country club Republicans supported this south end of a north-bound horse, yet they reject Todd Akin? Country club Republicans are bigger fools than Demorats.
Most of us have had it up to here with this ass-clown, and Powell is endorsing him?!?What #4 & #22 said: "...voting for he..." Good grief, one wonders if the general passed 4th grade English.
#39, oh please, give me a break. Colin Powell got where he is by pretending (apparently) to be a Republican. It was George W Bush, a Republican WHITE president, who elevated Powell to the status he held (and who most of us thought he deserved, based on who he said he was, NOT the color of his skin).So if we are disappointed in the man and who he has endorsed for president, especially after the fiasco of the last 4 years, that doesn't make us racist.
I thought he was a worm back when others thought he was cool. I believed him to be a total wimp during the first Gulf War.No surprise that he'd go for that foreign policy brain trust, Obama.
He needs a colinoscopy ASAP.
Is this affirmative action thing contagious?Powell's conservative credentials expired when he endorsed Obama the first time around. Why does he continue to remain a Republican? He's become almost as big a cypher as Obama is.
Colin Who?
Race before country. Plain and simple.
Republicans made this guy, and he does this. It's all about race with these birds, and that's gratitude for ya.
Can we stop with the "Colin Powell is a republican" nonsense now.Now you know why the liberal media and democrat establishment will never allow a black conservative to win the republican nomination: too many Colin Powell's out there voting by the color of the person's skin.
Years ago a friend with "inside knowledge" on the My Lai massacre in Viet Nam stated that Powell had "dirty hands" in this event, meaning that he had pulled some strings, etc.Can't prove it, haven't read anything about this, never read his book...yet somehow I would, if given the chance, want to explore this thread, this smear, or this supposed fact.I don't trust the guy, especially after how he covered for his boy and sent Scooter Libby up river without a paddle.Nope, go home, rock in your chair, read a black civil war book and imagine what a true leader would say about B. Hussein.Try thinking like Mayor Clint Eastwood...
Worthless, mealy-mouthed, spaghetti-spined political general, whose endorsement ranks up there with Van Jones and Anita Dunn-predictable and inconsequential.
Hardly a surprise. Powell was first and foremost a careerist, and while in the military projected the attitudes that would best insure promotion. After retiring from the Army, he cast off his non-political suit and donned Republican attire to better fit his appointment in the Bush I administration. Upon leaving the Bush administration, he then used his cred to bolster the causes he really believed in. One of these is supporting a Black President.
His 'intelligence' was a scam all this time. This president is tearing down this country, and this 'general' says, yep, he's doing a good job and I'm sticking with him. He covered up the affirmative action quite well, for a time.
Hes racist
Powell is a disgrace. He was never, ever a Republican but an opportunist. He ego was fed by being Secretary of State, but he is a user. As noted above, it's how he got ahead in the military - maximizing the value of affirmative action.
What y'all said.
Ha! One would think that old Colin actually believes that because he pretends to be a "republican" he will get more Republicans to vote for obama! That's a joke, right? And how many RINO's thought he would be a great president back in the day? Too many! WHO cares?
At least Condalisa Rice came to her senses.But I guess she had some senses to come to in the first place. Colin Powell never seemed that smart to me in the first place...
The affirmative action General endorses the affirmative action President. Is anybody surprised?
Always had great respect for General Powell as a true American patriot. He has sacrificed that position by giving in to those who want a black president reelected. I no longer respect him.
Many years ago Powell gave an interview, I believe with 60 Minutes - I am not certain...In the interview he discussed his upbringing, his career in the military and path to the WH and how much Affirmative Action helped him with opportunities in school, college (New York), employment and the military. He was rather upfront and unapologetic about the doors opened to him through Affirmative Action and during the interview he acted as if it was owed to him.This attitude is carried by a vast majority of blacks, and that is why most non-blacks view blacks in postitions of authority or elevated as unqualified because of benefits bestowed without earned merit, talent or accomplishment. This personifies Obama, many blacks in public office/service and those in mid to high level corporate positions (where quotas have to be satisfied).Perhaps the only area where Affirmative Action cannot assist and where true talent and ability are required is in professional sports.
#51, The first link is about My Lai. The second is about Brig. Gen. John W. Donaldson was charged with murder. There are other links worth reading.http://www.consortiumnews.com/2000/121700b.htmlhttp://www.consortiumnews.com/2000/121700c.html''One lesson he doesn't mention is that a military bureaucrat succeeds best by sidestepping controversy and keeping quiet when superiors screw up.''
Correction to post #66: reference should be to post #54.
Any respect I had for this man is gone. He is the same as Obama, an evil man. He sees nothing except O's blackness.
I never cared for Colon. What a lame brain.
Clearly a rayciss.
" I would like to list the reasons I am voting for Obama.........he's black......I'm black!" - Colin Powell
Disappointed.But even 76% of the rank and file are against Obama...so the General is misplaced.
I agree with above posters who noted Powell's ignorance of English grammar. I saw him on TV saying "I voted for he......and Biden."Him really said that. Me heard he say it.
I am sooo glad to hear this. There are still some Republicans who think this man would be a great candidate for them. He has never been a Republican and I doubt if he even voted for the Bushes.
As a former U>S> military general, Mr Powell should understand that Obama's foreign policy can be summed up in two words, PRO-MUSLIM. He has no other foreign policy. Perhaps Mr Powell just wants to vote based on race, which is actually understandable. Obviously he has left his military background far in the background.Voting for the re-election of the president is a vote against America's future.
It's a black thing.
So the AAG (Affirmative Action General)backed up Colin Powell endores his tranformative figger again. Like we didn't see this coming. I still remember back during the Gulf War that this hack gave his bad advice to the first President Bush to not go and get Sodamninsane in Bagdad. The fact that this old RINO would go to bat for Odumbo after how he's decimated the black community with his wretched policies is nothing short of a disgrace. I often wonder how better men like Bush 1 and 2, Rumsfield, and Schawtzkopf feel about this moral coward.
In other news, the sun came up this morning.
Since 2008, I have had no respect for Colon left to lose.
This isn't a RINO, this a Democrap!
It's tribal, I tell you. Tribal!
I think Colin Powell is still peeved over President Regan forcing him to abandon his command in Europe after the Democrats pushed the Iran-Contra fallacy upon the country. I was at NATO HQ when Casper Wineberger called Powell to advise him that President Regan wanted him to report to Washington as his National Security Council Chief. Powell's response was that if President Regan wanted him, he would have to call Powell himself. Powell had just taken command of V Corps as a Three-Star General then. Well, Powell grudgingly reported to DC so we know who called whom....
Hey folks,#39 is off his meds. king booboo can't help himself!!Ted in Michigan
Powell was anti-tea party and he is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations so it is possible he is for the New World Order. That would explain his allegiance to O since with O it is all about the United Nations and International 'well-being' and not the United States-but the denigration of the United States, to bolster the New World Order.Man as God:"Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things." (Romans 1)
No doubt he believes OJ was innocent, too.I give him an A.As in Affirm-A
Powell's bonifides for the most part come in foreign policy. He as said previously that Obama has a questionable foreign policy stance. Most all know that Obama's economic and domestic policies are an abject failure. Maybe color really does run more than skin deep?
Colin Powell made his way up the ranks through Affirmative Action. He was a C student but became a General because of his color. He has never impressed me.
Colin Powell, plantation general. Usually they are only colonels but I guess that's rank inflation.
I wish Condoleeza Rice would tell us about the true Colin Powell...
You're right on #87. Like Fauxbama, Powell is another example of promotion because of affirmative action. Also like Fauxbama, Powell's rise was based on skin color and without any consideration of merit because there was none.
It's so sad to see the great General Powell embarrassing himself in this way. He's showing that he's not right in the head anymore.
obama left 30people to die in Libya!He watched 4 men die and did nothing and you endorse him!
"I'll be voting for he and Vice President Biden..."He? I will be voting for he?Powell is not what he was cracked up to be. The lights are on - but nobody seems to be at home. He looked and sounded like a man of substance, just as Barack Obama -to some people- looked and sounded like a man of substance.If Powell ever decides to run for office, I will not be voting for he.
Thank God this dumba... will never be president, what an idiot he is.
Maybe he has been promised to be the new ambassador to Libya.

I am a student from Germany, and I want to start a company in the US. I've given starting it here first and then eventually expanding to the US some serious consideration, however, the chances of success for this particular business would be significantly smaller and that is not an option.
Let's consider this scenario:
There would be angel investors and/or VCs willing to invest in the company to get it started.
I do not have enough money of my own to invest to qualify for an E2/EB-5-visa.
Basically this scenario would be perfect for the proposed startup visa, but since it will probably take a few years if not a lot more until it might be passed, I need some kind of workaround.
I would like to maintain as much ownership of the company as possible, however I am open to any kind of option such as finding a co-founder with permanent residency/citizen status or getting a job at another company first in order to obtain an H-1B visa if that is the only way to make this happen.
What would be the necessary steps to both found the company and then work for it in the US?

"There's a video?" she asked. "I'm sorry, did you say there's a video? There's no video, trust me."
According to The Star-Ledger report, Hermann told the newspaper that Hineline was fired because of performance issues. She told the newspaper she could not recall attending Hineline's wedding and said that because she was a witness at the 1997 trial, she would not have been permitted in the courtroom when the wedding video was played.
"On the matter of the litigation, that issue was addressed many years ago and was known to Rutgers. I am sorry for the confusion I created by misspeaking about the existence of a video tape," Hermann said Monday. "It was recorded nearly 20 years ago and I simply did not recall the video tape until I saw it in media reports."
Obiala told CNN that she and her former teammates aren't trying to create problems for Hermann.
"We weren't trying to cause any waves. Honestly, I don't think any of us expected it to get to this point," she said. "Hopefully, at this point Julie's changed, and she's realized what a program needs."
The former players, Obiala said, have moved forward.
"Once the (athletic) department acknowledged our letter and gave us the opportunity to speak with her, and she chose not to coach for us anymore, we all accepted it. We said our piece. We've moved on," she said. "We're moms, we're career women, and we're happy."

Nearly ten city blocks evacuated by gas leak in Lyons
LYONS, Ore. -- A natural gas leak caused by a single-vehicle DUII crash called for a large-scale evacuation in the town of Lyons, Ore. Sunday Afternoon, the Linn County Sheriff's Office said.
LCSO deputies and Lyons Fire Department personnel responded to a a call at around 12:40 p.m. Sunday about a Ford F350 pickup that had knocked down a power pole and ruptured a high pressure Northwest Natural Gas line at the corner of 16th and Main.
The driver of the truck, Erik Smith, 41 of Aumsville, his three-year-old daughter and their two large dogs were able to safely get away from the crash scene.
Sergeant Kevin Guilford with LCSO said that the primary safety concern from the crash was with the natural gas harming people living in the vicinity. Emergency crews evacuated an estimated 250 Lyons residents in the area to a safe distance (over a fifth of the town's population, according to the 2011 National Census). Guilford said the evacuation took just over an hour to evacuate an area that covered approximately 10 city blocks.
Smith was arrested and charged with reckless endangering and driving, as well as DUII.
After repairs were made to the pipe and pole, the area was deemed safe and residents were allowed back into the area at about 4 p.m. Sunday. Officials did not know how many people were without power or gas services during the incident.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The last time Angel Pagan was involved in a walk-off hit, he sprinted around the bases, dove into home plate and landed on the disabled list for 82 games.
So this time around, he played it smart, letting rookie Ehire Adrianza do most of the running while still earning the hero's position in the center of the celebration.
Pagan singled in Adrianza from second base with no outs in the 11th inning Sunday, giving the San Francisco Giants a 3-2 win over the kings of extra innings, the Arizona Diamondbacks.
In earning a split of the four-game series with the second-place team in the National League West, the Giants avoided formally being eliminated from the division race on their home field. San Francisco, the defending NL West champ, began the day one loss -- or one Los Angeles Dodgers win -- away from elimination.
The Dodgers played a night game in Cincinnati.
Arizona, meanwhile, temporarily fell 11 1/2 games behind the Dodgers -- pending the L.A. result -- in the race atop the West. The Diamondbacks and Dodgers face off seven times in the next 10 days, beginning with a three-game series in Los Angeles on Monday.
Hector Sanchez ignited the winning uprising with his third hit of the game, a leadoff single in the 11th off Arizona left-hander Joe Thatcher (3-2).
Making his major-league debut, Adrianza pinch-ran for Sanchez and slid safely into second base when Diamondbacks catcher Miguel Montero fielded Gregor Blanco's bunt and unsuccessfully tried to get the lead runner.
Pagan followed with a liner to left field, and when third-base coach Tim Flannery saw Arizona left fielder Willie Bloomquist playing unusually deep, he waved Adrianza in. The speedy infielder made it easily.
"That's exciting. I was waiting for this moment since I was 3 years old," gushed Adrianza, who split time this season between Double-A Richmond and Triple-A Fresno. "Yeah, I was a little bit nervous. That was amazing."
The Giants poured out of the dugout as if the win clinched the division title as opposed to preventing them from losing it. The reason: Pagan.
"Everybody wants to see Angel Pagan in the lineup," said Sanchez. "On the bases and at the plate, he makes things happen."
Added Buster Posey, who returned to the Giants' lineup as a first baseman after having fractured the tip of his right ring finger while catching Tuesday, "He's definitely a game-changer."
Javier Lopez (3-2) got the win after recording the last two outs of the Arizona 11th.
The loss was just the Diamondbacks' sixth in 22 extra-inning games this season. Their record in such games on the road fell to 10-3.
It was the eighth time this season they've gone into extra innings in the final game of a road series. Remarkably, they'd been 7-0 in those circumstances.
Diamondbacks manager Kirk Gibson wasn't around to witness the ending. He was ejected in the 10th inning for arguing with Tom Hallion after the first-base ump had reversed a safe call on Aaron Hill after consulting with his colleagues.
The Diamondbacks had two runners on base at the time of the inning-ending call.
Gibson also was thrown out by Hallion, the plate umpire at the time, during Thursday's 4-2 win. He's now been tossed four times this season.
"We're not in a good streak right now," Gibson said, helping explain the frustration he vented upon Hallion. "Part of it is baseball, part of it is pitching. It's part of the game. We'd certainly like to be better than we've shown."
Neither starting pitcher factored in the decision despite throwing well enough to win.
The Giants' Madison Bumgarner shut out Arizona on four hits for six innings. The All-Star left-hander retired the last 10 Diamondbacks he faced before getting an early shower after throwing only 89 pitches.
"These guys have carried a pretty good workload," Giants manager Bruce Bochy said of his starting rotation, which is headed by Bumgarner. "It's going to be important to keep an eye on them."
Remaining winless since Aug. 6, Bumgarner struck out nine and didn't walk a batter.
Arizona scored its two runs against the third Giants pitcher, Santiago Casilla, to tie the game at 2-2 in the eighth. Pinch-hitter Eric Chavez's sacrifice fly and A.J. Pollock's two-out, two-strike single produced the runs.
Diamondbacks starter Wade Miley left for a pinch-hitter in the eighth. He surrendered only five hits in his seven innings, walking two and striking out three.
The Giants scored their two runs off Miley in the fourth inning. Sanchez singled in Tony Abreu with the first run of the game, and Posey, who had doubled, later raced home on a wild pitch.
NOTES: The Giants were involved in their first extra-inning game since Aug. 9 against Baltimore. They hadn't won in extra innings since beating Miami in 11 on June 22. ... Diamondbacks 1B Paul Goldschmidt was intentionally walked twice, increasing his season total to 16, which ties him for the NL lead with Cincinnati's 1B Joey Votto. ... There were four intentional walks in the game. ... There was only one error (by Arizona SS Chris Owings) in the four-game series. ... Arizona cleanup hitter 2B/3B/OF Martin Prado didn't start for the second consecutive game as he deals with a sinus issue. He entered the game in the bottom of the ninth and batted once, grounding out to third. ... The Giants held 3B Pablo Sandoval out of the starting lineup in the day game following a night game, citing a stiff back. He pinch-hit with two outs in the bottom of the ninth with the potential winning run at third base and was intentionally walked.

By Meredith Jacobs
Here's a look at two recent releases. One North Carolina writer sets her third book, a novel of historical fiction, in Fayetteville, while a local author's fictitious world includes zombies on a rampage.
Karen Cecil Smith, the author of "Pillow of Thorns," researched the story of the first Cumberland County woman to be put on trial for her life. Back when the real trial occurred in 1850, the murder-trial defendant hoping not to be hanged was Ann K. Simpson.
But then Smith decided to shift in a different direction. She turned the factual research into fiction. She took the main facts of the historical story and imagined the dialogue that transpired. She wondered what might have happened to a fictional character named Maria Stafford, who in the novel, is accused of killing her husband.
Richard Flunker
Everywhere you look, you'll find zombies in books, TV and movies. In Richard Flunker's "Deadfall: Survivors," the one place they are not found is at high altitude. This is why a former history teacher and outdoorsman stay in the mountains after a cosmic occurrence causes the dead to rise and roam.
The teacher in North Carolina's Appalachian mountains meets others who have outlived the undead, and they must all fight the zombies.
Flunker, of Fayetteville, writes that his goal was to keep the plot suspenseful, but not overwhelm it with gore.
The meteorite that hit Russia makes the first part of the story seem more real, although no zombies are reported to be rising - yet.
The book is published and sold through amazon.com.

I know it's not fashion or street wear but this book is my newest obsession. It's quite brilliant and something I think the city has needed for years.
Edited by Andy, Emily, and Rob Linn this book covers pretty much everything you need to know about our favorite city. It's an all-in-one guide, even if you feel like you know Detroit. Bell Isle to 8 Mile covers the newest shopping, restaurants, transportation and attractions the city has to offer. If you haven't been downtown in a while you will be surprised by how much awesome new stuff there is to do. The book is broken down by area, e.g. Midtown, Corktown, Hamtramck etc, and covers points of interest, attractions, bars and restaurants, shopping and everything else you need to know about any given neighborhood. Each chapter includes a map, a quick introduction, and some history on the area as well. There's even an annual events section and, my personal favorite "Getting it Strait" a guide to pronouncing or rather mispronouncing place names like a Detroiter!
(Don't think we mispronounce our street names? Say Cadieux to a French speaker)
There is so much good in this book, I could go on and on, but it's probably best to get it straight from the source. I truly believe that every metro Detroiter should have one. It also makes a great gift for our Detroit expats! Belle Isle to 8 Mile is available at City Bird and Nest on Canfield in Midtown for $22. Or at www.belleisleto8mile.com Thank you Linns! this is the guide-book Detroit has been waiting for!
If you don't live in the area, midtown Detroit is worth the trip! City Bird and Nest are next door to each other and are just around the corner from two other fabulous shops, Hugh and Nora. Check out all 4 stores and reward yourself with coffee and a treat at Avalon Bakery or The Great Lakes Coffee Company. It's all within walking distance!

Thanks for reading,

Why aren't we acting more responsible on foreign policy?
Last week, Republican war hawks, such as the man that handed us Obama himself, Mr. John McCain, called on our government to give away weapon's to the guerrilla opposition forces in Syria. This is a very bad idea. Why aren't republicans acting more responsible on foreign policy these days? We know that Assad is bad. We know that his regime is bad. We know that | Read More »

Dallas Semiconductor 1-Wire Questions
November 16, 2009, 03:41:52 am »
Hi Folks!
I'm presently kicking the tires on LinuxMCE, and I have some questions regarding 1-wire support. There isn't much in the Wiki on 1-wire support, so I'm hoping to be able to flesh it out with what I find out...
How is the 1-wire support implemented? Is it direct into LinuxMCE as a DCE device, or via something like the 1-wire file system (OWFS) or digitemp?
What devices other than thermometer chips does it support? Does it support the 1-wire switches for a switched 1-wire network? Does it support A/D and GPIO type devices?
Is the 9097U serial adapter supported in addition to the 9490R USB 1-wire adapter?
Are you able to input a calibration offset amount into the configuration that gets applied to the individual sensors? Due to where most of my sensors are located (phone jack height), I offset those sensors by a degree C so they jive with what my Thermostat reads.
I remember some past forum discussion about data logging not presently existing or about to be implemented... so I guessing that in the 8.10 beta there isn't any way of graphing or otherwise recording temperatures... is that correct? I'm presently feeding a bunch of 1-wire sensors throughout my house into the 1-Wire Weather (OWW) daemon, which feeds that info into Misterhouse, which generates RRD graphs that I can use to analyse tweaks made to the HVAC system.
Thanks for your time!

The driver for the 9490R disappeared in the database sometime ago, most likely due to database corruption at one point. It was implemented as a GSD device, and would need to be re-implemented again, either as a GSD in Ruby, or as a C++ device.

Has anyone started to re-implement Dallas 1-Wire? I have a 9097U and I'm willing to take it on.
I'm going to see if I can get it working as a GSD over the holiday.

I too am just kicking LMCE's tires and I stumble across this - AFTER spending too much time getting a dinosaur PC i have running the core - a very slow process indeed. Anyway, while searching to see what exactly I need to configure to get one of my 9490 's working, I find this...
The driver for the 9490R disappeared in the database sometime ago,
PLEASE tell me the driver is on it's way back into LMCE.
1-wire is key for me. My plans include 1-wire for weather and environmental along with slow discrete I/O, and initially X-10 stuff I have (insteon probably later). To that end, I bought a number of 1-wire devices some time ago including a couple of usb dongles.
I am hoping for basic functionality for home automation and media services from LMCE. Initially, my needs are very basic. I hope to grow the system over the next few years AFTER I have a reliable & capable core. For me, a capable core means a growing, very inexpensive - including maintenance & upgrades - collection of software and hardware. I don't have any coding skills ATM. I was hoping to develop some while getting some of the more advanced functions I want working. I need a reliable, predictable platform to do this on though...

I have designed my house to work on totally autonomous systems that do not rely on central control to work. They are then to be integrated (using Linuxmce) to provide additional functionality. Nevertheless, I do not want linuxmce to be a required element for anything to work.
For my 1-wire weather station and sensors I intend to use an NSLU2 (slug) with
, or somesuch. For
my weather station
there is a lot of software support already as well as all the information needed to write your own.
By running it on a slug, I can shutdown linuxmce when I choose but all my other non-dependent systems, including weather monitoring, keep going. Here is some information for
adding a 1-wire adaptor to the slug
You might want to think about doing it like that.
(For the record I'm also running a small asterisk server on a slug to route between VoIP and my landline - and vica versa, using an SPA-3102).

To all - so many questions... I have no coding skills and not much useful experience with Linux. please bear that in mind all...
soooo....write a new driver....we have a considerable architecture for it....either C++ or Ruby...take your pick.
Please do not take this as me being nasty or a - insert colorful metaphor -. I am simply trying to assess the state of LMCE and whether I am appropriate for it - if you get my meaning. Is there no archival data available aid in recovering the loss of the driver? This kind of 'disappearance' suggests this project exists on the brink of calamity. What am I missing? This also suggests interest in 1 wire is almost non-existent in the LMCE community. To me, that means I would be more on my own than I would like to be. As I see it 1-wire is a very powerful and flexible technology that would draw interest to LMCE and so would not be easily 'dropped' - perhaps it wasn't easy... Sorry if this is an excessively simplistic question/observation.
Again, I am asking because I am totally unable to assess this on my own - what is meant by driver in the MCE context? I ask because there is this thing called FUSE (user file system I guess) now in the kernel (?) and this thing called OWFS (One Wire File System) and optionally OWHTTPD etc. I had OWFS/OWHTTPD working alongside MisterHouse on ubuntu 6.? as I recall and owfs had built in support for most, if not all of the available 1-wire chips at the time. I had some problems with Misterhouse that derailed me at that time. Also, MH seemed to be stagnant then and It doesn't seem to have improved since. None of it was all that difficult to get going - it couldn't be, if I did it! Anyway, OWFS provided both flat and tree file structure (I think) that reflected the one wire devices connected to the host beginning at the configured mount point. It gave at least some control over most aspects of the management of the 1-wire net but didn't need to be hand cranked to get useful info to and from devices. I don't know how LMCE handled 1-wire before, or if it still does - just not the usb dongle. Again, ignorance speaking here, but it seems like it would be not so difficult to add OWFS to LMCE. What would then be needed is code to scan the directory tree(s) - multiple 1-wire interfaces to discover what devices are connected, and code to allow proper interaction with the various device types available (driver?). One thing that might require a little bit of extra smart code might be reading the branches of a 1-wire tree. I don't recall just how that worked. There was the possibility of using a 1-wire part to isolate branches to limit the effects of capacitance and thus permit larger nets and more reliable comms. without needing more host interfaces etc.
Does LMCE support 1-wire at all now? I still see Dallas Semi and the USB host adapter in child device setup...
What host interfaces are supported?
Does LMCE use OWFS? (Where is it mounted?)
If it doesn't use OWFS, was OWFS considered and rejected? Why?
Any illumination would be appreciated.
Assuming I can get the rest of what I need working in the short term on my dinosaur, I would be willing to do some testing of beta code to help get 1-wire USB going again... I have 2 of the USB host interfaces, and can deploy nearly a dozen temperature sensors within 6 weeks or so. Once that part works I would add some discrete I/O points - perhaps 8 for starters.
To Trentend:
If your remarks were to me, I have a WRT610N that I would use more or less as you describe (dd-wrt etc. etc.) but there, I get no basic functions working without writing my own code. Basic stuff to me is things like turn on the outside lights (some controlled by 1-wire outputs) if the driveway sensors sense incoming traffic and it is dark and play a sound if the time is right. Turn off the outside lights if it is sunrise and there was an override on. Otherwise, turn them off 20 minutes (randomize) after the last outside door in the area is closed or driveway sensors indicate departure. Another example - when you hear x10 code A1on send B all lights on and turn on output at 1-wire address (address) etc.
Gotta go.
I do hope LMCE will work for me and that I will be able to contribute something here eventually.

yay, I love it when people get emotionhal and reactionary...instead of researching facts...
do you see what happened there? we're both on mutually defensive positions... and it's your fault...
perhaps we should start off on better footing?
we do not know what happened with the 1 wire driver...as near as we can tell...the device template was written...but there was no corresponding code checked into our database. oh noes! project on the brink!! oh please....stop it.
so somebody needs to write a driver...given our architecture, this is not difficult for someone with a lesser load on their shoulders than those of us who are actively pushing out the next beta.
I do hope LinuxMCE is for you..but YOU must make that determination...seeing as you took the time to write out reams of text, you could have used that energy toREAD our forums and wiki to find the information you need! everyone's time here is valuable...do not waste it'

how about joining forces to get 1-wire working? I am also interested in that, but have (not yet) not much programming knowledge.
many of You guys seems to have much experiences of 1-wire, how about if we start a wiki page collecting all knowledge about 1-wire, how to write drivers and how to get it going?

Sounds good. I'm sure there are a lot of users that would use the 1-wire stuff, if it was supported.
Data logging would be an excellent feature to add now, too (web admin -> automation -> data logger)!

Compressing huge DVD movies to 700mb DVD-rips
Filed Under (guide, movies, optical media, storage, video) by Abbas on 20-08-2008
Tagged Under : CDVDs, compression, guide, storage, video
Ever wanted to compress your huge 4GB+ DVD movies to 700MB dvd-rips while still retaining the original DVD quality? Well thats what we're gonna learn today. You might be familiar with the regular 700MB dvd-rips 'scene' releases, where most underground DVD movies are in 700mb compressed avi format. Today we'll learn how to compress your personal DVD movies to small 700MB compressed format like the 'scene' releases, so that you can keep your DVDs safe in your drawer and enjoy watching the compressed rips from your hard disk drive.
Now if you're familiar with the 'xvid asd' compression format used for those tv-shows rips, you might know how nicely compressed those videos are. You get a complete 50minutes season video in a 350MB avi file. We're gonna use that sort of superb compression for our DVD today in this following tutorial. You'll see that even when our ~4GB DVD movie is compressed to a 700MB dvd-rip, there wont be much difference in the video or audio qualitybecause of the compression softwares and audio/video settings we're going to use.
We'll be using this very nice Xvid/DivX conversion tool called Read the rest of this entry »

Sweet, my birthday was yesterday and I hear Megalodon by Mastodon is coming to the PS3 next week? Happy birthday to me! Any word on the 2x Bass Pedal version though?
I'm always open to that! For example, I haven't been a big fan of Rishloo's RBN stuff, but after checking Downhill out, I have to say I like the track, and it has a fun keys chart to boot, so I'll definitely pick that up for the PS3 if it gets a release. I'll make sure to give your future releases a listen as well.
As for posting the weekly RBN discussion thread in the min RB section for more visibility, I personally like the idea, but I'll have to put it up for discussion with the rest of the gang first before I can commit to it.
Dig Your Grave reminds me of the kind of "OK, this subgenre is really harsher than what I'd usually be into, but this song is really catchy" songs that HMX surprised me with many a time in RB2.
Gamertag DackAttac
Obligatory DLC Wishlist Reel Big Fish, Fountains of Wayne, Motion City Soundtrack, Collective Soul, BNL, recent MCR
The weekly 5-song limit is restrictive enough as it is. Releasing some songs twice within that limit would only make matters worse. Of course it would be a possibility to release only the double bass versions of some tracks on the PS3 instead of the regular version, but we had a poll about that a while back and the community was very divided about it.
You know, it'd take some effort, but is it possible to *not* make it double bass, except on Expert?
Quick shout to whoever worked on Sweet#hart: This song has the most fun guitar chart I've ever played. Love it. This is my favorite song that has been released since Rock Band 3 came out.

While the majority of professional American sports commentators, such as
Mike Ditka
Terry Bradshaw
, inherit that job after retiring from the "field," broadcaster extraordinaire
Bob Costas
marks something of an exception. Though overwhelmingly well-versed in a myriad of sports -- including baseball, basketball, football, and the Olympics --
(at 5' 7," with a slender frame) -- never played any of those games professionally. Yet, ironically, many regard
as far better versed than the game-to-sideline "crossovers." When he arrived on the scene in the early '80s,
essentially reinvented sports broadcasting by imparting levels of articulation, intelligence, polish, insight, and wit that were, according to one publication, unseen since the retirement of
Howard Cosell
. But unlike
projected a congenial aura and probed effectively, without grating. Born March 22, 1952, in Queens, NY,
attended Long Island's Commack South High and, as an undergraduate, Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Communications. In the late '70s, he announced games for the Spirits of St. Louis, held a position at KMOX radio in St. Louis, and worked -- very briefly -- for CBS, before NBC signed him as a broadcaster in 1980, under the aegis of
Don Ohlmeyer
. From that position,
' assignments included emceeing NFL, NBA, and MLB games, alongside such legends as
Tony Kubek
Bob Uecker
Isiah Thomas
, and Bob Trumpy. Sports Illustrated summed up the audience appeal of
in 1986 by asserting, "[
is] able to pull together an audience. He appeals to the
Tommy Dorsey
crowd because he can talk about the DiMaggios, worships the old ballparks, and knows when to be reverent.... But he also pulls in the baby-boomers because he's one of them, and he knows when to be irreverent."
In late August 1988,
expanded his network responsibilities with NBC to include hosting a late-night, Monday-Thursday talk show,
Later With Bob Costas
. Each 30-minute telecast featured
chatting, amiably and casually, with a single guest, usually an actor, actress, sports hero, politician, or newscaster. Memorable bits included conversations with
Chevy Chase
Valerie Harper
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Mario Cuomo
Steve Allen
Wilt Chamberlain
Dan Rather
Richard Lewis
Wayne Gretzky
, and innumerable others. The program debuted on August 22, 1988, and wrapped five and a half years later, on February 25, 1994. Beginning in 2005,

The documentary Barbaro: A Nation's Horse explores the legacy of the great stallion Barbaro, regarded by many Americans in early 2006 as a sure bet for the prestigious Triple Crown, thanks to his 6 1/2 length win at the Kentucky Derby -- until he suffered a severe injury at the outset of the Preakness Stakes. At that point, the hopes of many fans suddenly hinged not on victory but on the horse's survival per se, as they waited on pins and needles for the steed to recover. This program interweaves lengthy footage of Barbaro at the Derby and Preakness with a series of exclusive interviews; subjects include jockey Edgar Prado, veterinarian Dean Richardson, Barbaro's owners Gretchen and Roy Jackson and horse trainer Michael Matz. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

The remarkable life of baseball's most beloved icon comes to the screen with the kind of loving attention to detail only achieved by the respectful, sports-loving documentary filmmakers at pay-cable giant HBO. Filmed in part to commemorate the tenth anniversary of the legendary switch-hitter's death, this film tells the remarkable tale of the athlete who overcame constant, nagging injuries to blast 536 home runs out of the ballpark over the course of 18 unforgettable seasons and swing his way into the history books. A charming country boy who would beat the odds to become the toast of New York, Mickey Mantle's charmed life came to a tragic end when, as he was receiving an operation to replace his damaged liver, doctors discovered that the baseball great had inoperable cancer. As filmmakers speak to the people who knew Mantle best, including his teammates, his sons, his wife Merlyn, and sportscaster Bob Costas, baseball fans are afforded the rare opportunity to watch from the stands as history is made in the ballpark. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Bennett Miller's adaptation of Michael Lewis' non-fiction best seller Moneyball stars Brad Pitt as Billy Beane, a one-time phenom who flamed out in the big leagues and now works as the GM for the Oakland Athletics, a franchise that's about to lose their three best players to free agency. Because the team isn't in a financial position to spend as much as perennial favorites like the Yankees and the Red Sox, Beane realizes he needs to radically change how he evaluates what players can bring to the squad. After he meets Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), an Ivy League economics major working as an executive assistant for scouting on another team, Beane realizes he's found the man who understands how to subvert the system of assessing players that's been in place for nearly a century. However, as the duo begin to acquire players that seem too old, injured, or inept to play major-league baseball, they face stiff resistance from both the A's longtime scouts and the team's manager Art Howe (Philip Seymour Hoffman), who outright refuses to allow Beane's more-nontraditional acquisitions to play. Moneyball screened at the 2011 Toronto International Film Festival. ~ Perry Seibert, Rovi

A pedal-to-the-metal race car determined to prove his worth on the tracks discovers that life isn't always about crossing the finish line first in Toy Story director John Lasseter's mechanically minded tale of friendship and loyalty. Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) may be just a rookie, but he's convinced that he can realize his dream of zooming by the checkered flag if he can only make it to California in time to compete in the upcoming Piston Cup Championship. When Lightning takes a detour into the slow-moving, Route 66 town of Radiator Springs, however, it begins to appear as if his shot at the big time has effectively stalled out. Of course, Lightning's exciting cross-country trek wasn't all for naught, and after befriending such quirky Radiator Springs residents as Sally the Porsche (voice of Bonnie Hunt), Doc Hudson (voice of Paul Newman), and Mater the Tow Truck (voice of Larry the Cable Guy), the eager young racer learns that sometimes life is more about the voyage than the outcome of the race. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Research conducted by Oxford University predicted that around 33,000 deaths a year could be prevented if people followed the dietary five-a-day guidance.
The scientists discovered this by using a computer model to predict how levels of diseases, such as cancer and heart disease, would vary if people ate more fresh produce.
As things stand, they found that just a third of Brits are consuming the recommended amount.
Professor Peter Scarborough, who led the study at the university, commented: "Meeting dietary recommendations would have a massive effect on the health of the nation. "According to our model, the biggest impact would be eating more fruit and veg. But this doesn't mean you should just stop at five - the more the better."
