Homebrew Rondo!
I saw the Rondo for the first time and decided it was nifty...
Then I got sick and couldn't go out and fly. I needed something to do, so I designed a Rondo Ripoff!
Preliminary layout.
As you can see, it is round... As you can also see, it is in development. I have etched a prototype and it is looking promesing.
I will have to wait untill I get my hands on some real live speciments of the chip I intend to use for it to actually fly anything, but I have been testing the firmware in a equivialent chip, although to large to fit on the PCB.
Features are:
* Speed-controller with 8-bit PWM.
* Max 14A(theoretical), 10A max to be safe.
* arming-function
* auto-calibration
Status is:
- Working and running smoooooooth!
Current focus / todo:
- Add more decoupling to improve noise-immunity
- Get ahold of a LM2940 voltage regulator in SOT-223 case to compare against the lousy LM340 I have to use now.
And, before anyone asks: NO I will NOT be adding a breake, nor will I be adding current-limiting. The FET is fairly cheap and will burn if one short out motor. This can be your protection.
As for breake, use this ESC for fun stuff like flying wings or other placed u can stick a speed 280/300 motor...
Oh, and for those wondering: I will be using the Microchip PIC 12F629 in this ESC. It is only 8 pins, has flash-memory and costs less than $2 in singles!

Nice work - do post pictures please!
|Sep 14, 2003, 06:06 PM
Will even post a vid of it running a speed 300 on my wing
|Sep 14, 2003, 08:28 PM
Well done! Amazing what a little boredom can accomplish eh?
|Sep 15, 2003, 11:53 AM
New RR300 layout is done!
I've upgraded my CAD program so that I can rotate parts in any angle! I think the new layout is better as it has better connections for the RX-wires. Also, I used a new function to create arched tracks along the outer-rim.
There is decoupling-capacitors on V+ near the connection to RX and the microcontroller. There is also one over the motor together with a emf-diode. There is also the usual 2 capacitors on the regulator. I did add another larger capacitor on the V+ rail close the the regulator. This should make the system a lot more immune to noise.
The previous version could run with a LM340 regulator all the way down to 5.1 volts with a speed 280. The new version should get lower and if you can get ahold of a LM2940 is SOT-223 package, this should reach noise-immunity down to 3.6v ! (Wich would mean I need to add a LVC in order not to kill your battery's if you are stupid.)
|Sep 15, 2003, 05:33 PM
Here's the new pcb almost done. Only thing missing is the actual microcontroller. I will be getting that tomorrow and then I will go flying!
|Sep 15, 2003, 08:17 PM
Hey Kreature
Do you have that mounted on the motor? Good idea.
Ever since I started seeing you work on these electronics I have wanted to learn also. I'll be getting a soldering iron (i think this is a good first step...) soon just for regular hobby needs. My highschool offers no courses on working with electronics like this, the robotics club is more about building the robot (they buy pre-made robot control electronic boards), and the "tech" class is more about pneumatics and stuff....
maybe i can get a course at the local college over the summer or buy a few books or something
|Sep 16, 2003, 11:44 PM
Hey Kreature, you might want to add a hole to strain-relieve the negative battery wire, it looks like it could pull the copper right off the board, especially if it is in a pusher, where a crash would pull that connection away from the board.
|Sep 17, 2003, 01:29 AM
Nice work. You are very close, but might I suggest one more detail that I feel will help the cause. I see you added as much copper fill as you could to your primary heat disipating components, namely the FET and the regulator. This is good. What concerns me is the height and mass of C4. The leads on these surface mount electrolytics won't take a lot of lateral G's, especially when mounted vertically...don't ask me how I know. It's one of those mechanical moment thinguses ME's know about...out of my range. If you would like to try some small tantalum brick types for C4 instead, PM me, I got many to spare.
Another trick for heatsinking prototype stuff is to use a doublesided board and leave as much copper on this otherwise unused side as possible. Copper tape can make a double-sided board in a pinch as well. Then simply attach copper braid to the tabs, wrap over, and solder to the other side. Remember though to watch the polarity of your tabs and planes from one side to the other side--no shorts allowed. A +5 Vdc regulator tab inadvertently conected to the drain or source of the driver FET would get ugly. In that case, you would need to separate the backside copper to connect both.
FWIW, Very nice work!
|Sep 17, 2003, 02:44 AM
zagisrule! I have thought about that as well... I don't think a hole will do anything as I am using 0.8mm thick board.
The jolt would snap the board instead. M+ on the other hand is actually soldered to the motor tab so it should be safe
Stickman, I am testing different layouts and ideas. That capacitor was already replaced the same night as I etched that board.
I am now using 2 large tantalum at the regulator, 1 smaller cheramic at the V+/GND outputs to the tx (this also happens to be close to the microcontroller) and a 0.1 uF cheramic over the motor poles.
I have also split the return-path of the emf between the motor pins so that it now goes through the diode and cap and meets with the regulators large tantalum instead of joining up with the regulators feed pin before the caps. This should reduce the noise a bit too.
When it comes to heat, there is no real issue with the FET as it has sooooo low internal resistance it can easily handle 10-14 amps without a heatsink. The FET is a logical-level controllable HEX-FET with only 4.7 mOhm on reistance and a 0.6v threshold.
at 90% duty it does NOT even get luke warm running a speed 280 on 8 cells.
The regulator on the other hand leaves to be seen. I don't think there will be any issues but the regulator has both short circuit and temp protection and essentially can NOT be distroyed.
I have tested the circuit a good deal now and it can run a 8-cell battery down to about 5.1volts before the BOD kicks in and stops the controller. At this time there isn't really any power left anyway and if you didn't notice thrust dissappearing waaay earlier than that U deserve to crash.
The new layout isn't as pretty but looks like this:
I do have room for some small 0805 or smaller type capacitors very close to the vreg pinns and will probably add that.
Also, I will add another cheramic up by gnd/V+ pads, simply because there is room
|Sep 17, 2003, 03:14 AM
Mind you, if it goes, so does the model anyway
|Sep 17, 2003, 12:08 PM
It will only limit current... It won't CUT.
|Sep 17, 2003, 06:18 PM
I see, I have just had some experience with pads coming off and it really peeves me when it happens. I saw that the + lead is going straight to the motor tab, good strain relief and as little as possible resistance.
What MOSFET are you using? You could easily do a 400-480 controller with a TO-252 FET. Adding a brake is not all that hard either, it is just a P-chan MOSFET that pulls the negative motor wire to Vcc to short the motor. You just need to add a code segment driving inverting P-chan driver high on a no throttle
|Sep 17, 2003, 11:23 PM
Looking good....a good single sided layout--low noise, etc-- is often challenging to achieve. It really would be nice to have the luxury of a full ground plane on the other side wouldn't it--on the other hand: boring!
I'm breathing easier now, now that the electrolytic went bye bye.
Could always try reducing the 0.1 uF across the motor terminals to 47 nF with an additional 10 to 1 nF in parallel with it--might filter the higher frequency noise better.
Thanks for sharing your efforts.

NASA's tensegrity ball robot can bounce its way across planets
NASA has used all kinds of designs to get a rover landed safely on some other celestial body, but most of the vehicles turn into straightforward wheel-based carts once they're on the ground. Not so with the Super Ball Bot, which uses its flexible tensegrity ball design to protect it both during landing, and while moving around.
Buckminster Fuller coined the word "tensegrity" to describe a structure where cables in tension are used to provide integrity. The twist with the NASA Super Ball Bot is that cables are attached to motors that can alter their tension and length, allowing the robot to become flexible for landing, or to alter its shape in a way that allows it to move across the ground.
The prototypes being developed at NASA's Ames Research Center in California are about three feet across, but NASA says that the basic design can easily be scaled up or down in size to suit different tasks. The current thinking at Ames is that this type of robot will be perfect for a mission to Saturn's largest moon Titan. Titan is big enough to have a thick dense atmosphere, which means that a passing spaceship could drop the Super Ball Bot from over 60 miles up, yet have it land safely on the surface.
Check out the video below to see some of NASA's Super Ball Bot robot prototypes in action.

title has it
i only have two
DBZ and Bleach
all of them but ill watched subbed too and the more i watch one piece the more i like it subbed
Only DragonBall series...
I think the only few I can handle is Dance in the Vampire Bund, FMA, an Bleach. But that's it lol
Dbz for sure much better english dubbed then Subbed
I would prefer to stop watching one anime, than watch it dubbed. Even OP (yes I said it)
DBZ and Yu-gi-oh (original)
The only thing I dont like about Dbz subbed is Gokus voice.
Only DBZ
DBZ and Yu Yu Hakusho are the only anime where I can only watched dubbed.
And I do like the Bleach dubbed.
Anything else is subbed.
DBZ, Detective Conan way too much to read.
Well I watch all anime english dubbed, but as other language is concern I like the whole dragonball franchise better in spanish than english. The mexican spanish voices in dragonball are just epic.. They put a lot of enthusiasm and heart into the characters
Only time i prefere dub is in this moment:
LOL @ Gorillazzz
I think FMA i prefer dubbed. I just watch whatever is available, i dont mind dub v sub, but if the voice actors are bad in dubbed, i go immediatly to subbed.
I like DBZ more funimation dubbed, but subbed is still good too.
The one anime that is clearly better dubbed than subbed is yu yu hakusho, the american voice actors did an awesome job.
Originally Posted by Gorillazz

It had to be the infamous over 9000... lol
Yeah. Same with me, I will try out dubbed. And if I finding myself grinding my teeth cause the characters sound stupid, subbed I go.

|Report of the reactive monitoring mission, 2 to 9 June 2007, Selous Game Reserve (United Republic of Tanzania)
Factors affecting the property identified in previous reports
a) Poaching;
b) Reduction of elephant populations;
c) Insufficient funding;
d) Mineral and hydrocarbon prospecting and mining;
e) Tourism management and development;
f) Potential and proposed dam development.
Current conservation issues
On 2 February 2011, the State Party submitted a comprehensive report on the state of conservation of the property. This report provides an overview of the status of various proposed developments, including the Stiegler's Gorge/ Kidunda dams and the Mukuju River uranium mine, as well as the implementation of the 2007/2008 mission recommendations. The key conservation issues currently affecting the property are discussed below.
a) Proposed dams – Stiegler's Gorge and Kidunda
The State Party report acknowledges that while no decision of building a dam in Stiegler's Gorge has been taken, the feasibility of the project is being assessed. The State Party notes that a Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) has been recommended for this project and that the World Heritage Centre will be informed about any project developments. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN reiterate the 2008 mission's conclusion that a dam at Stiegler's Gorge, which is situated in the middle of the property, would have serious impacts on the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV), and in particular the integrity of the property. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN consider that major dam projects are not appropriate developments inside natural World Heritage properties. Flooding, as a result of dams, is specifically noted as an example of ascertained danger to OUV of such properties in paragraph 180 of the Operational Guidelines. They therefore consider that the State Party should reconsider this project in line with its commitments under the Convention. They further recommend that the Stiegler Gorge dam SEA consider using past data and research on this proposal, including the detailed feasibility study funded by the Norwegian government in the 1980's, which could provide important baseline data and information.
The State Party report notes that a new Environmental Impact Assesment is underway for the re-designed Kidunda Dam, planned at the edge of the property. However, no information is provided if the new design will flood part of the property or affect the Gonabis wetland, an important area for many of Selous' large mammals on its boundary. They recall that the 2008 mission recommended that any review of the Kidunda dam design should prioritise alternatives outside the property.
The World Heritage Centre and IUCN recall that all environmental assessments for proposals affecting World Heritage properties should meet international best-practice standards and at minimum: i) assess the likely impacts of the proposal on the property's OUV and integrity, based on the Statement of Outstanding Universal Value (SoOUV); ii) consider and assess feasible and less environmentally damaging alternatives to the proposal, which in the case of the Stiegler Gorge dam may include alternative energy production/ efficiency options at national level; and iii) undertake adequate stakeholder consultation at both the scoping and environmental report stage in line with international best-practice principles. The State Party should also consider using recommendations from the World Commission on Dams available at http://www.internationalrivers.org/dams-and-development-new-framework-decision
b) Proposed Mukuju River uranium mine
The World Heritage Centre and IUCN note that the State Party submitted a minor boundary modification request to exclude the Mukuju River uranium mine concession area from the property, which will be considered separately under item 8B at its 35th session.
The State Party submitted the ESIA (Environmental and Social Impact Assessment) for the proposed Mukuju River uranium mine to the World Heritage Centre for review. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN reviewed the ESIA and provided their assessment to the State Party on 8 March 2010. In their assessment, the World Heritage Centre and IUCN noted that in its current design the uranium mine would be partly located within the property and reiterated that this would be a clear basis for recommending the inscription of Selous Game Reserve on the List of World Heritage in Danger, in line with the Committee's position that mineral exploration, mining, oil exploration and exploitation are incompatible with World Heritage status, as well past Committee decisions and the findings of the 2007 and 2008 World Heritage Centre/IUCN reactive monitoring missions.
They further noted that the ESIA does not assess the likely impacts of the proposal on the property's OUV and integrity, and therefore cannot form the basis of a decision on whether or not to grant a license for uranium mining even if the mine would be adjacent to the property. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN recommend that the Government of Tanzania revise the assessment and resubmit the ESIA taking into account World Heritage Centre/IUCN's comments. In the meantime, they consider that the State Party should not grant the exploitation permit.
c) Weakening of the property's legal protection and mineral / oil exploration
At the 34th session of the World Heritage Committee (Brasilia, 2010), the World Heritage Centre and IUCN highlighted that the 2009 revision of the Wildlife Act significantly weakened the legal provisions for protection that were in place at the time of inscription of the property by legalizing mineral and oil exploration and exploitation within game reserves. In its report, the State Party acknowledges that mineral and oil exploration and exploitation may undermine the OUV of World Heritage properties but considers that the revised Act addresses this issue by requiring that any development in Game Reserves undergo an EIA; and developments commence only once an EIA certificate is issued by the Ministry responsible for Environment. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN point out that the legal protection regime of Selous Game Reserve at the time of inscription did not allow for oil exploration or exploitation, which is no longer the case as a result of the 2009 Act. They therefore consider that the current legal protection is insufficient for a World Heritage property. The report did not provide details on the current status of the oil exploration project. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN wish to highlight that there exist proposals for hydrocarbon prospecting within the property, and recall the clear policy position of the World Heritage Committee oil exploration are incompatible with World Heritage status.
d) Poaching
The State Party notes that it shares the Committee's concern about the estimated 44% decline in the property's elephant population between 2006 and 2009. The Tanzanian Wildlife Research Institute is in the process of establishing the cause of this decline, which in the State Party's view may be due to a number of causes aside from illegal killing. Moreover, the State Party considers that a trans-boundary census including the Niassa Game Reserve is needed given the link between its elephant population and Selous'.
IUCN notes that it has received reports of ongoing poaching in the northern sector and along the Mozambique boundary, including in the area of the Mukuju River uranium exploration concession. IUCN has also received reports that field rangers and game scouts have insufficient funds to conduct regular patrols within Selous Game Reserve (SGR) to address the increase in poaching. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN consider that the severe poaching problem in Selous can only be addressed by urgently restoring its management capacity, as discussed below. They emphasize that the maintenance of the Selous-Niassa wildlife corridor is important to preserve the integrity of the property over the long-term. They remain concerned about the fragmentation of this corridor due to encroachment from subsistence agriculture fields and development pressures including uranium exploration, and strongly encourage the Government of Tanzania to consider including this strategic corridor within the property.
e) Deterioration in management capacity
The State Party reports on the progress achieved in implementing the 2007/ 2008 mission recommendations, in particular through the on-going establishment of a new Wildlife Authority, the establishment of 8 Wildlife Management Areas around the property, the recruitment of 40 additional employees in February 2010, and that the procurement of 4 new vehicles. However, the State Party also acknowledges that several recommendations so far have not been implemented as a result of limited financial means. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN note that while some progress has been made, it has been insufficient to restore SGR's management capacity. IUCN notes that it has received a number of reports concerning the property's deteriorating management standards and increasing corruption, including insufficient capacity and funding for anti-poaching activities as noted in point d) above. IUCN also has received reports that the spread of invasive alien species is accelerating, including Mimosa pigra, Lantana camara and Pistia stratiotes.
The World Heritage Centre and IUCN recall that Decision 34 COM 7B.3welcomed the State Party's intention to create an autonomous Wildlife Authority which will automatically reinstate revenue accrual and significantly increase the property's human and financial resources. They wish to point out that the Authority has not yet been created and consider that in the mean time the Revenue Retention Scheme should be reinstated.
Given the State Party's request for technical and financial management support, they recommend that the Government of Tanzania undertake a Management Effectiveness Evaluation for Selous Game Reserve, in line with the "Enhancing Our Heritage" methodology, with technical support from IUCN and encourage the State Party to request International Assistance from the World Heritage Fund to do so. This would also be an opportunity to convene a workshop to address the implementation of the 2007/ 2008 missions, as repeatedly requested by the Committee at its 33rd and 34th sessions.
The World Heritage Centre and IUCN wish to highlight the weakening of SGR's legal protection status and the different development projects (Stiegler's Gorge dam, Kidunda dam and Mukuju River uranium mine and oil exploration) which are being considered but are incompatible with the World Heritage Status of the property and could potentially endanger the property's OUV. They consider that a decision to go forward with these projects would create the conditions for inscription of the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger. Deteriorating management standards, escalating poaching, and potential hydrocarbon prospecting are also of serious concern. The World Heritage Centre and IUCN consider that decisive action is urgently needed to address these issues, in line with the actions listed in Paragraph 4 of the draft Decision below.
Decision Adopted: 35COM 7B.6
The World Heritage Committee,
1. Having examined Document WHC-11/35.COM/7B,
2. Recalling Decision 34 COM 7B.3, adopted at its 34th session (Brasilia, 2010),
3. Reiterates its utmost concern about the weakening of the legal protection status of the property, the different development projects (Stiegler's Gorge dam, Kidunda dam and Mukuju River uranium mine and oil exploration) which are being considered, ongoing wildlife poaching and the evident deterioration in the management of the property;
4. Urges the State Party to implement the following actions in order to protect the property's Outstanding Universal Value:
a) Finalize the creation of the autonomous Wildlife Authority and reinstate the Revenue Retention Scheme,
b) Abandon plans for the different development projects which are incompatible with the World Heritage Status of the property, in particular the Stiegler's Gorge dam, uranium mining and oil exploration inside the property, in line with its commitments under the Convention,
c) Ensure that the design of the Kidunda dam will not affect the Outstanding Universal Value of the property and avoid flooding part of the property or key wildlife areas on its boundaries,
d) Enact specific legislation to prohibit prospecting and mining within Selous Game Reserve on the basis of its World Heritage status,
e) Develop and implement an emergency plan to strengthen anti-poaching activities in the property in order to cope with the alarming increase in poaching,
f) Revise and resubmit the Environmental Impact Assesment for the proposed Mukuju River uranium mine in line with the World Heritage Centre and IUCN recommendations prior to granting exploitation permits;
5. Reiterates that any decision to go forward with oil exploration, mining or dam construction inside the property would constitute a clear case for inscribing the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger;
6. Strongly encourages the State Party to provide an appropriate protection status to the Selous-Niassa corridor as its inclusion within the property is vital to the long-term integrity of the property and the corridor is progressively fragmented;
7. Recommends that the State Party undertakes a Management Effectiveness Evaluation for Selous Game Reserve, with the assistance of IUCN, and to convene a workshop to address the implementation of the 2007/2008 mission recommendations to develop a plan to implement a full and effective set of conservation actions, and also encourages the State Party to request International Assistance from the World Heritage Fund for these activities;
8. Requests the State Party to submit to the World Heritage Centre, by 1 February 2012, a report on the state of conservation of the property and on the steps taken to implement the requests set out in Paragraph 4 above, for examination by the World Heritage Committee at its 36th session in 2012.
Decision Adopted: 35COM 8B.46
The World Heritage Committee,
1. Having examined Documents WHC-11/35.COM/8B.Add and WHC-11/35.COM/INF.8B2,
2. Acknowledges the State Party's legitimate need to ensure the well-being of its population, fight against poverty and diversify its economy while continuing to protect its natural environment under the framework of and in compliance with domestic provisions in this regard;

Not all appearances of name-brand items in movies result from product placement. But can audiences tell the difference between what's a paid ad and what isn't?
Sony Pictures
Towards the end of The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, the film takes the viewer past pristine white walls and sleek Scandinavian furniture, through a hallway and secure steel door, and down a flight of stairs. There, a character is strapped into a noose, grimacing at the killer who has led him to his chamber of horrors. The madman looks back smugly, ready for whatever sadistic torture might be imagined—but not before he disinfects his hands with a bit of Purell.
Purell's blue logo appears vividly in this shot of David Fincher's new thriller, a signal to the audience that the villain's hands will be properly sanitized for the terrible deeds he prepares to do. Here's one takeaway from the scene: Blood and guts can spew where they may, but this particular bad guy intends to remain as spotless as the house upstairs. Here's another: Yikes! Murderer-rapists choose… Purell?
"The audience has gotten to a point where they assume that everything they see is placement."
While advertising has become ever-more ubiquitous—and ever-more surreptitious—in movies and television shows, this Purell moment in a film already heavily stocked with name brands nevertheless seems bizarre. Why would Purell want to be associated with torture? In fact, it doesn't. A Purell representative said that the company was entirely unaware of its role in Dragon Tattoo, not to mention the product's use in the climactic scene. When asked about how the brand comes across, the spokesperson replied that the sanitizer "is an integral part of societal and personal well-being. Naturally we would not endorse or promote this type of product placement."
Indeed, product appearances on screen do not always come about through monetary deals struck between studios and brands, frequent as those arrangements may be. But Chet Fenster, of the media agency MEC Entertainment, says that "the audience has gotten to a point where they assume that everything they see is placement"—regardless of whether or not it's been paid for. And why shouldn't they? According to the most recent branded entertainment marketing forecast from research firm PQ Media, paid placement spending increased in the double digits during the last decade, and is now up to as much as $3.61 billion, if not more.
Hence the impression of at least one fan, who tweeted, "Without giving anything away, Purell was my favourite product placement in The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."
The practice of showcasing consumer brands in films began as an informal barter system, dating as far back as 1896, when a representative for the Lever brothers (now Unilever), got two cases of Sunlight soap into a Lumière film. Those sorts of arrangements—a cereal box on screen in exchange for breakfasts in the studio cafeteria—continued in Hollywood, and still do, as prop masters and costume designers seek out supplies at minimal or no cost. But as an industry, product placement really took off in the '80s, with the notable appearance of Hershey's Reese's Pieces in E.T. The candy lured the alien out of his hiding place, and sales rose 65 percent after the movie's release.
E.T. came out in 1982, during a period when product-placement spending in the U.S. was rising dramatically, from $190 million in 1974 to $512 million in 1985, by PQ Media's count. Today, a dedicated team at Norm Marshall & Associates—one of the most prominent names in branded entertainment marketing—sift through more than 600 hundred scripts annually in search of placement opportunities. Where there's a sneaker to be worn or a beer to be sipped, the firm get clients "exposure in an organically favorable way for the brand," says NMA President Mark Owens, who has been in the business for two decades. Some deals are paid, others are trade; "more fees do exchange hands in film than in television," he noted. In general, "brands have a lot more control now than they did before."
At the highest level, companies "tend to insist on a great deal of artistic control, and in some cases will even collaborate on the screenwriting process," says Mark Crispin Miller, a professor of Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University. Brands not only want to see that their products appear desirable, but also that audiences are most effectively allured.
In 2003, media marketing consultant Erwin Ephron penned a now oft-cited Mediaweek article, "The Paradox of Product Placement," in which the titular conundrum is defined: "If you notice, it's bad. But if you don't notice, it's worthless." More recently, a study published in the Journal of Advertising comparing the effectiveness of overt versus subtle product placements found that viewers responded more positively when a brand's visibility was less prominent and less frequent. As the paper concluded, "Slapping one's brand on the big screen in a haphazard manner will yield disdain, not engaged consumers."

House, Senate Negotiators Announce Deal To Avert Another Shutdown
By Tamara Keith
Originally published on Wed December 11, 2013 12:30 pm
House and Senate negotiators said late Thursday that they reached a budget deal. The agreement would restore some of the automatic spending cuts known as sequestration, and includes some relatively small deficit reduction over the next two years. Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., and Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., hammered out the deal, which they characterized as a step in the right direction that would avoid another government shutdown in mid-January if both the House and Senate approve the budget.

I have not yet but do intend on making this recipe. However, I do not appreciate reading ratings/reviews (particularly unjustly poor ratings) from people who have not even tried to make the recipe! Just because the recipe is not completely "authentic" does not mean that it can't taste good.
I have a dutch mother and was brought up on indonesian food.This is a very good recipe. It is very basic. I add ham and chicken breast and shrimp to it. I also use sambal and ketchup manis in it. It is a tasty recipe that I have made many times. Its yummy. Also the trick is make your rice a day ahead and let cool in the refridgerator. Comes out the best
I think Sri Owen, the author of the Asian Kitchen tried to adjust the authentic recipe so that people can make this with stuffs they already have in their pantry. But to label this recipe as Indonesian Fried Rice is not fair. Unlike Chinese Fried Rice that require simple soy sauce, you actually need lots more exotic spices in Indonesian version. For example, paste made of corriander, galangal, garlic, shallots, srimp paste, and sweet dark soy sauce is a must. Be careful not to offend Indonesian people: they are very proud of their Nasi Goreng and satay.
It's not genuine nasi goreng without sweet soy sauce (kecap manis), which you can get at an oriental food store. The ginger isn't necessary. The red chilis are to give the dish a hot flavor; chili sauce (oriental food store again) can be substituted, or, in a pinch, cayenne pepper. If served as a main dish, it should have some sort of meat (chicken, shrinp, or pork) in it. Cucumber and/or tomato slices on the side are excellent.
Being Indonesian , i have never seen a Nasi Goreng recipe like this before! I would concur that there is no tomato ketchup in any Indonesian dishes - where is the Sambal Oelek and the Meat ??

CorMedix Announces SPA Agreement With FDA For Phase 3 Trial In The Prevention Of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury Study With CRMD001 (A Proprietary Formulation Of Deferiprone)
CorMedix Inc. ("CorMedix") (NYSE Amex: CRMD), a pharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing therapeutic products for the prevention and treatment of cardiorenal disease, announced it has received a Special Protocol – Agreement letter from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") regarding a Special Protocol Assessment ("SPA") on the design of a pivotal Phase 3 trial for the Company's oral formulation of CRMD001 in the prevention of Contrast-Induced Acute Kidney Injury ("CI-AKI"). This SPA takes into consideration a modification to the dosing regimen contained in the previously submitted protocol.
CI-AKI, also referred to as Contrast Induced Nephropathy ("CIN"), with its associated morbidity and mortality, each year afflicts about one-third of the approximate 325,000 high risk patients with Chronic Kidney Disease ("CKD") in the U.S. who undergo angiography for vascular imaging. If effective, CRMD001 treatment could significantly reduce the occurrence of CIN and its complications.
The Phase 3 clinical study of CRMD001 to be conducted under the SPA is planned for approximately 800 patients in approximately 80 centers worldwide. The planned study will be randomized, double-blind and placebo-controlled, with patients evenly divided into two groups: CRMD001 and placebo. The study will assess the efficacy and safety of CRMD001 in the reduction of morbidity and mortality in patients with CKD undergoing diagnostic or interventional cardiac procedures and receiving an iodinated radiocontrast agent. The study will have a primary composite clinical endpoint that includes: death, dialysis, myocardial infarction, stroke, congestive heart failure and hospitalization. The hypothesis is that CRMD001 will significantly reduce the composite event rate compared to placebo. The study also includes secondary and exploratory endpoints which will include changes in serum creatinine and serum cystatin C, as well as other biomarkers. CRMD01 or placebo will be administered orally for 8 days.
CorMedix plans to begin patient enrollment in this Phase 3 study during the first half of 2012, pending results of its Phase 2 study for which patient recruitment was recently completed; results of such Phase 2 study are expected to be reported in the second half of 2011.

July 22 (Bloomberg) -- New York Times Co. is beginning to stabilize as more people sign up to pay for its online news than expected, according to Evercore Partners Inc.'s Douglas Arthur.
"Because they've been free for a long time, they've built up this huge audience, they know from years of study and analysis that there is a large group or a subgroup of those unique visitors who are high frequency, dedicated, loyal visitors to the site," Arthur, an analyst at the investment firm, said in a radio interview on "Bloomberg Surveillance" with Ken Prewitt and Tom Keene.
New York Times Co.'s third-quarter earnings, released yesterday, exceeded analysts' estimates as customers signed onto the online subscription model and digital advertising sales increased. The company's stock, which fell below $4 in February 2009, traded at $8.95 today in New York.
The company said July 13 it's repaying a $250 million loan from billionaire Carlos Slim earlier than planned.
The newspaper publisher attempted to cut costs without lowering its journalistic quality, and the success of its effort to charge for access to its website is the true test of whether it can accomplish that, New York-based Arthur said.
New York Times Co. introduced in March the Web-based subscription model, which requires online readers who view more than 20 articles per month to pay for access to the site's content. It said it had 224,000 subscribers for the service at the end of the quarter.
"There's been so much media focus on the New York Times effort, really drawing a line in the sand that they can continue to invest big dollars into high-quality journalism and get paid online," Arthur said. "You're seeing a slow but inexorable paradigm shift on the Web as to who is going to pay for what."

Some 6 percent of Lithuanians plan to emigrate in the near future, according to a survey by Spinter Tyrimai for online news service Delfi.
Another 35 percent of adults are contemplating leaving the country, Delfi said on its website.
The poll, conducted from June 15 to June 22 among 1,008 adults, had a margin of error of 3.1 percentage points.
At 23.7 people per 1,000, Lithuania's emigration rate is the European Union's highest, according to Eurostat. About 53,900 Lithuanians emigrated in 2011, while 15,700 returned, the statistics office in Vilnius said on March 23. Eighty-two percent of the emigrants were unemployed for a year or more before leaving, it said.

CommonWealth REIT Files Preliminary Consent Revocation Materials
CommonWealth REIT (NYSE: CWH) ("CommonWealth" or the "Company") today announced that it has filed preliminary consent revocation materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in response to the preliminary solicitation materials filed on December 3, 2013 by Corvex Management LP and Related Fund Management, LLC ("Corvex/Related").
The CommonWealth Board believes that a wholesale removal, without cause, of all the members of the Board is not in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders, and would be disruptive to CommonWealth's business and a value destructive exercise.
The Board and management team are committed to executing on the current business plan to increase value for all shareholders by repositioning the Company's portfolio towards high value office buildings located in urban and downtown locations and disposing of suburban properties and other non-core assets. Despite the disruption that Corvex/Related has caused to CommonWealth's business and operations for the last ten months, the Company has made significant progress implementing this plan during the last year, including:
- Approving plans to sell 85 properties (204 buildings), most of which are industrial and suburban office properties; and
- Selling 38 of these properties (92 buildings since the beginning of 2013, with additional sales expected in the coming months.
The Board is also pursuing a number of significant changes to its governance and management compensation based on direct input from shareholders, including:
- Adding additional Independent Trustees to the Board;
- Appointing a Lead Independent Trustee;
- Declassifying the Board;
- Terminating the "poison pill"; and
- Restructuring the business management fee payable to the Company's manager, Reit Management & Research LLC ("RMR"), so that management's compensation is further aligned with the interests of shareholders. Specific changes include:
- The base management fee includes a market capitalization component;
- The base management fee is payable partially in Company common shares, instead of all cash;
- The incentive management fee includes a shareholder return component;
- The incentive fee is payable entirely in Company common shares; and
- The incentive fee has a "clawback" and five-year vesting.

Chicago is preparing for another day of violent protests as the NATO summit comes to a close Monday.
Police clashes with demonstrators led to several injuries and dozens of arrests over the weekend in President Obama's hometown of Chicago.
Police took into custody three Florida men who authorities say came to the Windy City to take part in protests, including one May Day demonstration by so-called Black Bloc Anarchists in front of Chicago's Bank of America.
The three are accused of manufacturing molotov cocktails with plans to attack the president's campaign headquarters and the home of Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel during the NATO summit.
"My office has charged each of these individuals with material support for terrorism, conspiracy to commit terrorism, and possession of explosives or incendiary devices," Illinois state attorney Anita Alvarez said.
The NATO summit now turns its focus on ending the mission in Afghanistan.
The gathering was about "painting a vision of post-2014 in which we have ended our combat role," Obama said at the summit.
Afghan President Hamid Karzai apologized to Americans for for being a burden.
"I'm bringing to you and to the people of the United States the gratitude of the Afghan people for the support that your taxpayers' money has provided for Afghanistan over the past decade," Karzai said.
As world leaders met indoors, many of the day's protests outdoors were peaceful as thousands marched through the streets of downtown Chicago, calling for an end to the war.
"The NATO generals need to have accountability to the service members serving under them," one protestor said, who is an Iraq War veteran.
"The people are sick of war. We want money for education, for housing, for jobs, for all of the social programs that the people in this country love so well," another protestor said. "We've had it up to here with war."
Prosecutors charged two more people on Sunday as part of their investigation into three separate violent plots against the summit.

Besides that, it was already mighty hot and humid, so I decided to skip the

Konark. Pulak guided us on one last village walk through a town that

The wrong trousers Gromit
It wasn't the wrong trousers it was a close shave!
My roughty toughty image suffered a bit of a set back today following a shave and a face massage - it was all good until the 450 rupee bill. The most a good ferangi shave should be is about 50 rupees and it's usually about 20 / 30 if a suitable roadside affair. I fully appreciate the white skin tax rule but even ...

... very lucky chap in that mosquitoes don't like me - they're not the only ones - but even so they were buzzing in their unique high pitched way. As a result my Touratwat supplied mosquito net came out and I wrapped myself up in it putting my hands in the indicator recesses (I used my bike cover). I started to doze at about 9 pm when I was called by the chap I'd spoken to an hour before. He told me to call him if I had any problems during the night and my onward journey ...

Located in the heart of the wonderful Olympic vacation resort village of Lake Placid, New York, the Lake Placid Club Lodges is a short and picturesque drive to Whiteface Mountain.
The colors are becoming brillant and the mountains luscious in every direction. What a terrific time to enjoy all that Lake Placid and the Adirondack Mountains have to offer. There is an abundance of outdoor activities including biking, canoeing, camping, fishing, hiking, and of course, shopping. But what sets Lake Placid apart is its' Winter Olympic heritage. Visitors enjoy public skating in the Olympic Center,visiting the Olympic Museum and Ski Jumping complex, partaking in summer and fall bobsledding, and mountain biking. The vista from the peak of Whiteface Mountain is amazing and can be easily reached by riding the Cloudsplitter gondola or driving the eight-mile Veterans Memorial Highway to the summit. The region also boasts some of the best fall golf in upstate New York. Check out our Great Golf pages for descriptions of some of the finer courses in the area.
Whiteface Mountain, which boasts the greatest vertical drop east of the Rockies, was recently given a new title: No. 1 ski resort in the eastern United States and second overall in eastern North America. An independent survey of 7,000 SKI Magazine readers put the Olympic mountain back on top for the first time since 2003.
Whiteface, which has 283 skiable acres and 86 trails, also received high marks for its Apres-ski, ranking No. 1 in "Off-Hill Activities" for the 18th year in a row. The Olympic Regional Development Authority spokesman Jon Lundin pointed to the nearby Olympic venues, the wide variety of restaurants and special events in the area."It's the overall experience and the authenticity of Lake Placid, Whiteface and Wilmington that make it so unique," Lundin said. "People just get in the spirit of things. They say they want to ski an Olympic mountain so they come to Whiteface."

I am eagerly waiting for that epic episode... it will be a great episode for sure...
It will be interesting to see how all this turns out - and where Jalandhar's wedding to Vrinda will fit in to the storyline, and where Indra and Indrani will come in as well. Its very busy with so much going on all at the same time!
Mohit Raina is doing an awesome job in his triple role of Mahadev, Swami Adiyogi, and Jalandhar, and Sonarika Bhadoria is doing very well as the amnesiac Princess Parvati. :-)
