8 Claims, 4 Drawing Figures marae SEED DISPENSER FOR PLANTERS This is a division, of application Ser. No. 162,091, filed July 13, 1971, now U.S. Pat. No. 3,762,603.
CROSS REFERENCES TO RELATED APPLICATIONS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTIO 1. Field of the Invention This invention relates to dispensers and particularly to planters. More specifically, the invention concerns a planter of the pneumatic type.
2. Description of the Prior Art Planters of the pneumatic type utilizing air pressure differential in a rotatable seed selector to retain seed at a pickup opening by vacuum or by pressure greater than atmospheric and discharge the seed after a predetermined rotation of the selector by vacuum release or by positive air pressure, are known. Planters of this type are shown for example in the U.S. Pats. to: Dodwell, No. 2,960,258 of Nov. 15, 1960; Clow, No. 3,240,175 of Mar. 15, 1966; Winter, No. 3,142,274 of July 28, 1964; and Ferrault, No. 3,412,908 of Nov. 26, 1968. Such planters have been cumbersome, and the relationship of the seed source to the seed selector or metering device has caused inefficient and ununiform delivery of seed thereto with consequent failure to fill all of the seed pickup openings. Furthermore, the haphazard relationship of the air pump or blower to the seed selector has been accompanied by air losses resulting in abnormally high power requirements for operating the blower, impairing the efficiency of the pickup openings in the seed selector to attract and retain a seed and carry it to the discharge area, and to discharge the seed to the furrow openers.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Under optimum conditions each of a plurality of seed pickup openings in a pneumatic seed selector of the type with which this invention is concerned will attract and hold a single seed and will successively discharge to the ground single seeds at uniform intervals. However, prior planters have, due to the disadvantages referred to, retained more than one seed in a pickup opening or have failed to fill all of the openings and to discharge the seeds uniformly.
Therefore, the present invention contemplates the provision of a dispenser assembly for a planter wherein the interacting components are advantageously arranged in a compact unit to feed seed from a hopper to the interior of a seed selector drum having peripheral openings therein and to deliver air under pressure from a blower to the drum to seat seed in the openings and to discharge the seed to the planter furrow openers. The dispenser assembly comprises a support structure mounted on the planter frame which supports the seed hopper centrally of the frame. Rearwardly of the hopper and closely adjacent thereto the support structure carries an air pump or blower having a rear wall on which is rotatably mounted the selector drum, said rear wall of the blower forming a common wall with the drum. The components of the dispenser assembly are thus closely associated and combine to achieve maximum efficiency in feeding seed to the selector drum with minimum loss of air pressure from the blower.
An object of the invention is the provision, in an improved seed dispenser of the pneumatic type wherein a rotary seed selector is revolved in the presence of a supply of seed which is fed to the selector from a seed hopper in close association therewith, the seed being received and held in openings in the periphery of the selector during a predetermined rotation thereof and discharged by air under pressure supplied by an air blower in close association with the hopper and the selector.
Another object of the invention is the provision, in a planter of the pneumatic type having a mobile supporting frame carrying a plurality of furrow openers, of a seed dispenser assembly centrally disposed on the planter frame and including a seed hopper, an air blower and a rotatable seed selector having a connection to the hopper and to the blower to receive seed and air under pressure, respectively, therefrom and to discharge the seed by high pressure air to the furrow openers.
DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a trailbehind planter adapted for connection to a tractor "and having mounted thereon a pneumatic seed dispenser assembly incorporating the features of this invention;
FIG. 2 is a view in side elevation, with parts removed, of the dispenser assembly shown in FIG. 1;
FIG. 3 is a rear view of the assembly shown in FIG. 2; and FIG. 4 is a plan view of the structure shown in FIG. 2.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT The planter shown in FIG. 1 comprises a rectangular frame 10 including front and rear angle bars 11 and 12, respectively, and end plates 13, rotatably supporting the ends of a shaft 14 to which are affixed rearwardly extending arms 15 upon the ends of which are mounted wheels 16. Shaft 14 also carries a plurality of brackets 17 to which are pivotally connected the forward ends of drag links 18, upon which are mounted furrow opener units 19.
A hitch structure 20 is secured to and extends forwardly from the planter frame and is, adapted for connection to a tractor of any well known type, not shown, having a power take-off shaft.
A seed dispenser assembly generally designated by the numeral 21 is carried by the planter frame and comprises a seed hopper 22, an air pump or blower 23 and a seed selector drum 24, disposed in a vertical plane extending longitudinally of the direction of travel of the planter. The dispenser assembly is mounted on the planter frame by a supporting structure 25 comprising laterally spaced side plates 26 extending in the direction of travel and affixed to the central portion of the planter frame.
Seed hopper 22 is mounted between the forward ends of plates 26, and the housing for blower 23 is mounted between the side plates 26 adjacent but spaced somewhat from the rear wall 27 of the hopper. The rear ends of side plates 26 of the dispenser support are connected by a transverse brace 28.
Blower 23 comprises a forward wall 29 and a rear wall 30 having an opening 31 therein and connected to the forward wall by a closure member 32. The housing encloses a fan or vaned member 33, mounted on a shaft 34 extending in the direction of travel in longitudinal alignment with the seed hopper, and at one side the closure 32 communicates with a downwardly and rearwardly directed air discharge tube 35.
Walls 29 and 30 of the blower are provided with flanges 36 by which the blower is secured to the sides 26 of the supporting structure 25, and rear wall 30 of the blower extends vertically downwardly to form a stationary supporting member and forward wall for the seed selector drum 24. Drum 24 includes an outer or rear wall 37 and a cylindrical peripheral portion 38, and is driven in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3 by a shaft 39. Shaft 39 is rotatably mounted in the forward stationary wall 30 about an axis parallel to and generally in the same vertical plane as the axis of blower shaft 34, and its rear end is secured to outer wall 37 of the drum.
As shown in FIG. 2, the hopper bottom 40 slopes downwardly from front to rear. Also as viewed from the rear in FIG. 3, the hopper bottom 40 slopes laterally inwardly to form a relatively long bottom portion 41 and a relatively short portion 42 converging at a location laterally removed from the longitudinal center line of the hopper and of the blower and seed selector drum. A discharge outlet 43 is formed in the lower portion 44 of rear wall 27 of the hopper, as indicated in FIG. 2.
Seed discharge outlet 43 is connected to the upper end of a tubular guide member or chute 45 which is directed downwardly and rearwardly, and diagonally inwardly below the blower and the drum shaft 39, and is connected to an opening 46 in the lower portion of the stationary forward wall 30 of the drum. Seed flows from the hopper 22, through chute 45 and into drum 24 to form a seed supply in the bottom thereof.
Blower fan 33 mounted on shaft 34 comprises vanes 47 curved at their outer ends into the direction of rotation and, as indicated in FIG. 3, air discharge tube 35 delivers air under pressure to the drum through an opening 48 in the stationary wall 30.
Fan drive shaft 34 is rotatable in a bearing 49 carried by wall 29 and its forwardly projecting end is supported in a bearing 50 carried by the planter frame. A pulley 51 mounted on shaft 34 is driven from a larger pulley 52 mounted on a shaft 53 receiving its drive in any suitable manner, not shown, from the power take-off shaft of the tractor by which the implement is propelled.
Drum drive shaft 39 extends forwardly and is revolved in the opposite direction from the blower by suitable gearing, in a manner not shown, from one of the ground engaging wheels 16.
The construction and operation of the seed selecting and discharge mechanism within the drum 24 form, per se, no part of the present invention. Reference is hereby made to the above mentioned application to Loesch, et al, for a complete disclosure of the seed selecting mechanism. It will suffice for an understanding of the subject invention to note that the periphery 38 of the drum is provided with circumferentially spaced rows of seed-receiving openings 54 and individual seeds filling the openings are held-there by the pressure differential between external atmospheric and the high pressure air introduced into the drum.
Seed picked up by the openings 54 from the seed supply in the bottom of the drum is carried upwardly in the direction of drum rotation indicated by the arrow in FIG. 3 to a location near the top of the drum where the seed is released.
Release of the seed from the openings 54 is caused by the provision ofa series of rollers or wheels 55, preferably made of rubber, rotatably mounted on a shaft 56 carried by a fork 57, shown in FIG. 4. Fork 57 is pivotally connected to one of the supports 26 and has an arm 58 projecting through a slot provided in the other supporting plate 26 to accommodate raising the rollers, out of engagement with the drum. As the outer edges of openings 54 successively move into engagement with the rollers the pressure differential between the inside and outside of the seed openings is negative and the seeds are released.
High pressure air from the drum flows through the discharge tubes 58 and carries the released seeds along with it. The discharge tubes which are directed downwardly and forwardly of the direction of travel, as shown in FIG. 2, extend through suitable apertures provided in the forward wall 30 of the drum and are connected, in a manner not shown, to seed guide tubes 60. As indicated in FIG. 1, seed guide tubes 60 extend laterally from the selector drum and carry the seed to the furrow opener units 19.
The combination and arrangement of the seed dispensing components of this invention herein described efficiently and economically meters seed supplied from a hopper carried by a mobile planter and discharges the seed to the furrows formed by the planter furrow openers at regular intervals and with a minimum expenditure of power, and the construction and operation thereof should be clearly understood from the foregoing description.

Zames-Falb Multipliers for Quadratic Programming
Free registration required
Executive Summary
In constrained linear model predictive control a quadratic program must be solved on-line at each control step, and this constitutes a nonlinearity. If zero is a feasible point for this quadratic program then the resultant nonlinearity is sector bounded. The authors show that if the nonlinearity is static then it is also monotone and slope restricted; hence they show the existence of Zames-Falb multipliers for such a nonlinearity. They express the results in terms of integral quadratic constraints. The multipliers may be used in a general and versatile analysis of the robust stability of input constrained model predictive control.

I searched for an implementation of std::map runtime ordering and have found this solution: STL std::map dynamic ordering
It is clear for me, but I don't understand, how it can be possible to use OrderingType in the constructor of std::map. std::map has a constructor, which gets a comparator object as an argument. So it is normal from my point of view to use code like this:
int main()
Ordering<int> test_ordering( ASCENDING );
CUSTOMMAP map1( test_ordering );
return 0;
But code from above mentioned topic also compiles:
int main()
CUSTOMMAP map1( ASCENDING );
return 0;
I don't understand, why it works: constructor of std::map must not get argument of OrderingType enumeration instead of Ordering class object itself.

Keg #6 --- Skull Camp Brewing- Lazy Bones Porter.....1/6th barrel
Bottled this up last night.. can't wait to try it in a few weeks.
How long do you recommend letting this sit in primary before bottling, and how long should it sit in the bottles before putting it in the fridge?
MASH IN! Thanks for the recipe Yooper. This is going to be the first stout I serve off my nitro!
Brewed this last weekend and I'm brewing it again today. Tried bottled water for one and tap water for the one today to see if there is anything different. I'm too lazy and unsure of how to use the results of a water analysis. I think we have a lot of chlorine in our water.
Can't wait to try a 10 gallon batch next time.
That went smoothly... Hydro sample is tasting nice with some bourbon.
Just checked the gravity of our batch we brewed last week. Only 1.030 so I hope it hasn't stalled. Going to give it another few days and check again to see if we have to repitch. Hope not since $7 for yeast ain't fun. Though if it comes to it we may try notty since I have loads of it.

This is my background, I have a Masters in Computer Engineering and most of my work experience involved writing device drivers for various consumer electronics. I have done 8051 and 8086 controller programming as part of my curriculum. I have also done some work on functional validation of Automotive HW. Now I want to move to very low level where it involves flashing the board, powering up, bootloader programming, validating the various components on the board, validating buses, memories etc.

Many good questions generate some degree of opinion based on expert experience, but answers to this question will tend to be almost entirely based on opinions, rather than facts, references, or specific expertise.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
First you need a good understanding of electronics, an EE degree helps but is not necessarily required, depends on the market you are going into.
You definitely need strong schematic reading skills, good schematics and bad ones.
You definitely need strong datasheet and other reference manual skills. Most of these manuals have mistakes so you need some hacking skills as well. Never trust the manual, never write hundreds or thousands of lines of code without testing against the hardware. One step at a time. Some vendors have good docs, some are horrible, surf sparkfun and places like digikey and mouser to get datasheets on various things from different vendors.
tons of stuff at sparkfun.com, arm based, avr based, msp430 based, etc, etc. These of course are all tested boards, but can teach you how they boot, how to read schematics and datasheets (programmers reference manuals, etc) and from that how to program the devices to make them perform.
If you have never brought a chip up or lets say booted one from reset, I have a few simulators at github, search for thumbulator to find one of them and go from there. you may find the lsasim one interesting as I have a way to simulate a hardware/logic version of it and you can see the inner workings of the thing while it is running. You can get a feel for how to get gcc to build a binary that you can boot a chip from.
ability to read verilog and vhdl, ability to write it is even better. the "real" documentation for a design is the source code itself.
ability to operate an oscilloscope. Probably your number one debug tool both for figuring out why something didnt come up and developing test software and debugging your software.
develop a strong knowledge for often used interfaces. spi, i2c, mdio, serial, etc. Ideally you should be able to put a few scope probes on a spi bus and read the commands and responses.
be able to write code to bit bang any of the above busses, controlling the timing so that you do not exceed the I/O speed capabilties of any of the parts involved.
Basic ethernet protocols and tools like wireshark or other similar ones. if there is ethernet on board you will need to bring that interface up, receive some data, dump it out be able to parse through the bytes and see the packets. Be able to generate simple packets, arp, ping, udp.
read up on the fat file system. sd card and other similar interfaces use this.
learn usb.
learn pci/pcie.
stellaris boards from ti are loaded with peripherals to try to figure out how to talk to .
get the beagleboard schematics or the open-rd or plug computer schematics and research all the major components, the dram the flash, sata, ethernet, usb, etc.
Oh, right definitely learn how to program eeproms and flashes, eeproms are dying out but were unfortunately more consistent with each other. flash parts, spi, parallel, plus every microcontroller has a custom interface, are wide ranging.
defintely get used to using jtag. openocd is good, the ftdi serial breakout boards at sparkfun can be used to bit bang jtag, or pretty much anything else. amontek makes the jtag-tiny which is good for arm or for repurposing for other platforms. I think the lattice programmer can be repurposed as well. speaking of...understanding the different ways fpgas can be programmed and booted. Likewise how to program an fpga by bitbanging some gpio interface, often the fpga vendor will have a skeleton (svf player for example) and you have to provide the backend, not unlike putting a backend on openocd. Some microcontroller families have non-jtag, usually serial, interfaces that can be used as an alternative way to load/program the chip.
look up, learn about pwm, pulse width modulation.
study vpi and other ways to connect test software with hardware/hdl under simulation, great benefits can come from testing and writing test software for the chip/logic before it is on a board.
know what a clock looks like when there is too much capacitance, or resitance, or not enough of each (ringing). know what crosstalk looks like.
being able to solder helps. after about the third time in an hour a flash has to be unsoldered because you keep making software mistakes and bricking the board, its like the boy who cried wolf, you wont get much help.
ad hoc programming, the faster you can whip up a program/tool the more things you can get done in a day.
That reminds me you have to have excellent discipline and patience. Only change one thing at a time when testing/debugging, it can take an eternity to work through all the things that can be wrong, one thing at a time, take a logical path. divide the problem in half again and again until you find the cause. documenting and storing everything you can, and being able to recall the relevant information from that collection of data and present it. get it right the first time. boards are easy to brick, and the pads can only handle being reworked so many times before the board is scrap. the easiest solution is do not make mistakes. being able to create tests and test fixtures that reduce human error causing failures. If you cannot manage your own human error doing your job how are you going to reduce the human error related to production testing? Having the ability and courage to defend and demonstrate your belief in what the problem/solution/test method is. For example here is how to make the next card non-brickable, how much it will cost per board, and how much it will save in development time to offset that cost.
Your question is too wide open, the answer to your open ended question is you need to learn everything that can be on or connected to a pcboard. you need to be able to program at the lowest level comfortably. so fully understand every datasheet at digikey, mouser, etc. be able to program every one of those parts, all compilers, etc. if you narrow the question down some we can give a more digestible answer.
Learning embedded systems design with microcontrollers will teach you how to design a board and bring it up. Try http://www.avrfreaks.net/ for some projects with Atmel AVRs. There's also http://www.sixca.com/, http://www.eevblog.com/, and http://www.webring.org/hub/avr
Really, your question is quite broad and there are many ways to approach learning these things, but this is the direction I came from originally and it has worked well for me.

Canada and Asia-Pacific
The growing Asia-Pacific region is a key priority for Canada. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has reiterated that engagement with Asia is vital to Canada's future prosperity; in the October 2013 Speech from the Throne and the recent 2014 Federal Budget, the Government of Canada committed to expanding trade with emerging markets in Asia through our engagement in the Trans-Pacific Partnership and active negotiations with Japan, South Korea, and India. Canada places great value on our relationships with Pacific and Asian countries: we increased our presence on the ground with 10 new offices in China and India since 2006, committed new resources to the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) and appointed Canada's first-ever resident ambassador to Burma in March 2013.
Canada's engagement in Asia-Pacific has never been stronger. We are committed to playing an even bigger role in the region now and in the long term. Specifically, Canada is working with global, regional and local partners toward three goals: building partnerships; providing development assistance and strengthening economic engagement.

New Music: Stereoshock, Ibeyi, Sasha Siem, Sinead O'Connor, The Barnum Meserve, The Written Years - LISTEN
New Music, brought to you weekly by Deadly Music!, will generally avoid most mainstream music - unless it's particularly deadly - to give new, emerging and fringe artists a chance. Most tracks are available on a Soundcloud playlist, some of them on a Spotify playlist....both of which are embedded at the end of this column.
Stereoshock: 'The Letter' and 'The Messenger'
Stereoshock is New York based producer, composer and songwriter Josh Cohen.
Under the Stereoshock name, Josh has been releasing EDM for a number of years but he has taken a change of direction with his new work.
Two recent tracks 'The Messenger' and 'The Letter' are companion concept pieces. Both are emotionally raw cinematic pop tracks, more spoken word soundtrack than actual songs.
In Josh's own words, "'The Letter' is a musical story about a protagonist, who leaves his family in order to regain a sense of direction in his life. However, throughout his travels, he realizes that time is not always the best resolution. This record represents a valuable life lesson, and provides us with a greater understanding of the power that time truly holds. Life around us will move on, whether we choose to participate in it or not."
Tearing up Soundcloud for the past few months, Stereoshock could well blow your tiny mind.
Ibeyi: 'Mama Says' and 'River'
Ibeyi is French/Cuban twin sisters, Lisa-Kaindé and Naomi Diaz, daughters of Buena Vista Social Club percussionist Anga Díaz.
The sisters sing in English and Yoruba and play Díaz's signature instrument, the Cajón.

Say goodbye to X-Fi as Creative rolls in its new series - Sound Core3D
Creative are back in the limelight once again today after previously announcing both the ZEN X-Fi3 Bluetooth Touch MP3 player and Sound Blaster Recon3D. The company has also rolled out a new line of PCI-Express sound cards that, while impressive by design, may bring on a bit of a sad panda face for some due to the obvious end of the X-Fi generation for good after its over half decade presence since August 2005.
The new line-up is called Sound Core3D and it has one major difference to the X-Fi family of cards. Where X-Fi used high-performance native audio processing (through hardware) by making use of the processors on the card such as the CA20K series, the focus is now on the set of DSPs (digital signal processors) resident on the Core3D; there being four of these that give it a "quad-core" moniker, but this is not in the sense of there being four actual processing cores. These four DSPs are also not necessarily hardware-accelerated, but due to the presence of four of them, they work together in order to produce the best overall audio output.

Creative give cross platform love with new Sound Blaster Recon3D USB solution
Along with the launch of their new ZEN X-Fi3 Bluetooth Touch MP3 player, Creative has also extended its Sound Blaster family of audio products with the Recon3D today. This is a USB bases audio device which gives cross-platform support for the Xbox 360, PS3, PC and Mac.
Running dimensions not much different to your typical gaming mouse, the Sound Blaster Recon3D is a compact USB audio solution which promises a dramatic improvement in audio playback quality and immersion thanks to THX StudioPro, a full suite of audio enhancements developed by Creative and THX audio engineers.
The Recon3D also features Dolby Digital via its optical input, giving full 5.1 surround decoding, which combined with THX TruStudio Pro promises excellent accuracy and positional audio playback in conjunction with a gaming headset.

SOUL by Ludacris SL800 Headphones now on sale
Here's an interesting looking pair of headphones, which perhaps may be quickly dismissed if you're not looking to spend much due to the $299.95 price tag. First announced back in March, SOUL by Ludacris have just made available their SL300 headphones via Amazon at the aforementioned price point. Clearly these aren't your basic stereo headphones as indicated by the price alone; rather, some big claims are made from the U.S. based company with a 'high definition, fully isolated listening experience' for professionals and audiophiles also seeking unique styling.
The SL300s come in two color options; gold, and black/white. They feature a breathable headband pad and fully articulated earcups that promise a very comfortable fit and are foldable for convenient storage when not in use. Using dynamic drivers with a Neodymum magnet, they also feature active noise cancelling technology (two AAA batteries required for this), gold-plated 3.5mm connector, an in-line remote and tangle-free cable. They ship with a cleaning cloth and carrying case included.

Razer debut Electra headset, Carmen Electra left out in the cold
Razer have debuted a pair of cushy headphones designed for gaming on-the-go. The most obvious feature the Electra headset has is the detachable 3.5mm jack cables on the headset, sure it looks like something you might not use, but if you've ever tripped on your cord, accidentally pulled it out or heck, even transportation, this is a godsend. Razer pushes the headset for gamers who want a headset for their hones as well as for gaming, the mic-enabled cable is made compatible with the iPhone, BlackBerry and HTC phones.
The Razer Electra headphones are getting prepped for an October launch and should have a price of US$59.99.

A press release today sheds light on several new limited edition Modern Warfare 3 themed headsets hitting shelves right around the time of launch of the game. Turtle Beach calls them the Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 Ear Force headsets, a limited run with four models on offer.
Turtle Beach states in their press release that thanks to a partnership with Activision, they were able to obtain unique sets of audio presets designed specifically by the audio teams at developers Infinity Ward and Sledgehammer Games - this allowed Turtle Beach to include custom-optimized presets for these headsets to enhance the overall audio experience for the game.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) - Authorities evacuated the New Mexico Capitol after a male caller threatened to kill himself in the building.
State Police Lt. Emmanuel Gutierrez says the evacuation was ordered around 12:30 p.m. Monday and the building was shuttered for the rest of the day.
He says police know the identity of the caller, but hadn't been able to locate him.
A spokesman for Gov. Susana Martinez says the governor's office had received a series of calls from someone threating suicide.
Martinez spokesman Enrique Knell says the evacuation was ordered after an initial investigation by law enforcement found the threat to be credible.
Knell says the governor wasn't in the building at the time.
The Legislative Council Service said the Capitol will reopen to the public on Tuesday.

Brie BellaBrianna Monique Garcia-Colace
- Birthdate: 11/21/1983 (age 31)
- Height: 5'6"
- Weight: 120 Ib
Brie Bella has spent most of her career working...
WWE is reportedly disappointed and confused by the fact that Brie Bella is not over more as a babyface. The company felt that she would get a lot of sympathy during the attack by Tamina Snuka on RAW.
The feeling is that Brie comes off very likable on Total Divas, but the issues there are that the audience for that show is mostly women who do not watch or attend RAW. There is also the fact that Brie went from a heel that mocked the faces to a face with no real turn.

Nicki Minaj - Your Love
Artist: Nicki Minaj
Producer: Papa Justifi of the Knightwritaz
Album: Untitled Debut
Avg Rating: 3.6 ( 127 votes )
People obviously love talking about Nicki Minaj, and looking at Nicki Minaj, but it's starting to look like they may not be so interested in listening to Nicki Minaj. Despite a tsunami of hype, Minaj's lead single Massive Attack has more or less flopped on the charts (and in the Booth). Unfortunately, I don't really think her new single Your Love is going to help turn the tide. Your Love is as close to a slow jam as Nicki's going to get, with producer Papa Justifi [of the Knightwritaz] flipping an Annie Lennox sample into a softly echoing track that Nicki fills with some of the slowest, most subdued rhymes we've ever heard from the usually schizophrenic emcee. Plus she decides to take on hook duties; not a lot of good decisions being made on this one. Then again, I've been wrong before (there was this one time…). As always, I'll leave it up to the Booth to decide Your Love's final fate. Either way, without a hit single, I wouldn't be surprised if Nicki's currently untitled debut album gets pushed back from its late summer release date.

Taylor Swift Definitely Purchased Mansion Near Kennedy Compound
Here's hoping Conor Kennedy doesn't break up with Taylor Swift anytime soon. Despite reports that Swift didn't really buy a mansion near the Kennedy compound, she most definitely did.
Here's hoping Conor Kennedy doesn't break up with Taylor Swift anytime soon. Despite reports that Swift didn't really buy a mansion near the Kennedy compound, she most definitely did.
Why does Taylor Swift torment her exes through her songs?
"Because that's fun." Simple enough, right?
Taylor Swift loves getting back at those who wronged her, like when she writes song lyrics about the horrible things her exes have done. Swift reveals in a new interview that in order to spite the classmates who picked on her in school, her first big purchase was a Lexus SC430, the same car shown below and driven by the bullies' favorite movie character, Regina George of 'Mean Girls.'
The press has been dogging Taylor Swift for months with rumors that her relationship with young Conor Kennedy is a source of contention for his family -- but in a recent interview, his grandmother went out of her way to express her approval.
One of the highest anticipated songs off of Taylor Swift's 'Red' is her duet with Ed Sheeran-- and luckily for fans of both artists (but perhaps not for their labels), the track leaked!
Taylor Swift released 'State of Grace,' the fifth single from 'Red.' Has it really been that many already?! In any case, the quality matches the quantity: 'State of Grace' may well be a perfect pop song.
Taylor Swift is the world's best alarm clock, since she has been waking us up with song previews for the past few weeks.
Taylor Swift is going on yet another marketing endeavor for 'Red.' The 'I Knew You Were Trouble' singer is working with Papa John's Pizza to sell 'Red' alongside pizzas. Because if there's anything we think of when we think of Taylor Swift, it's pizza. Right?
