For decades, the Drosophila larval neuromuscular junction (NMJ) has been a powerful model system for genetic and molecular dissection of synaptic growth, structure, and function. More recently the peripheral nervous system of third instar larvae has been employed to study acute neuronal responses to axon damage and disease. However, due to the short time interval between the third larval instar and pupariation, the system is not well suited to study processes that extend over a longer time period. Recent studies demonstrate that third instar larvae mount a rapid initial response to axon damage and display tantalizing beginnings of axonal regrowth. However, the onset of metamorphosis with replacement of most larval tissues precludes more complete analysis of the response to injury - including involvement of glia and possible axonal repair - over time. Similarly, the window of observation in experiments probing mechanisms that maintain NMJ structure and function over time, or how these are compromised with age or by disease, is significantly limited by the onset of pupariation. The goal of this application is to characterize and demonstrate the utility of an experimental system we are developing that overcomes these time constraints while preserving the features of the larval NMJ that makes it such a powerful model. We exploit genetic variants in which larvae develop normally but subsequently remain in the third instar for up to 10 days (4 times longer than normal), during which time they continue to grow before finally undergoing metamorphosis and eclosion. On the basis of our preliminary results, we are confident that the expanded third instar lifespan provides a novel and powerful opportunity for experiments that probe time-dependent neurobiological processes. To establish the validity and utility of this Extended Larval Life-span (ELL) model, we propose experiments that aim to answer the following questions: (1) Is NMJ growth normal in ELL larvae during development? Does the NMJ continue to grow along with the increase in larval size during ELL? Do the key signaling pathways known to regulate NMJ growth during normal development continue to function during ELL? (2) Does the NMJ remain structurally and functionally intact throughout ELL? (3) Can we prove the utility of the ELL system as an experimental tool by employing it to expand our understanding of the injury response in larval motor axons and peripheral nerve glia over an extended time frame? We believe that this novel experimental system has enormous potential to greatly expand the power of the larval NMJ as a model system and enable us to make unique inroads in studies of axonal regeneration and synaptic maintenance, both of which are highly relevant for understanding and treatment of a number of human neurological disorders.
Many human neurological disorders are associated with impairment of motor pathways either as a result of physical damage to nerves caused by injury or as a result of various diseases that perturb the structure or function of synapses where nerves relay electrical signals to muscles. To fully understand these and related disorders and to develop rational therapies, we require a model system in which the necessary genetic, molecular, and cellular analyses can be carried out. We are developing a novel experimental system, long-lived Drosophila larvae, that offers numerous advantages for studies of this type and we are applying it to study the process of nerve regrowth after injury.

Dick Andersen and I were partners on a previous WOW B-17 which I used as a test bed for GWS motors, servos, speed controllers and GWS propellers. It was a lot of fun working together, but alas that plane later crashed. When we saw this large B-17 at the Banana Hobby booth at the AMA we decided to team up once again. We ordered the Nine-O-Nine model B-17 on the Internet from Banana Hobby and got confirmation of our order that day, confirmation that it had shipped two days later, and a few days after that, it arrived in two large boxes. One box held the fuselage and the other held the two wings with motors installed. When we bought this we weren't planning to write a review and so I didn't take the usual pictures of all the parts pictures, but fortunately I did take a few pictures. Since it was not a "review product" it sat until we had time to assemble her together. While Dick went on vacation, I ordered some Lego figures to serve as our crew after seeing E-Zoner Bugman Jeff's B-17 with Lego crewmen in his Nine-O-Nine. Finally, this summer Dick and I had the time together to assembly and fly our Nine-O-Nine and she is a sweet flyer

The Kit Contains
Mike & Dick Supplied
The wing halves came with the motors already installed along with flap and aileron servos. Dick and I had to secure the supplied control horns onto the flap and aileron control surfaces with two screws per control horn. We activated the aileron and flap servos by connecting them to the receiver. The servo arms came down 90 degrees, and we connected the supplied control rods between the servo arms and the control horns. With those properly installed, we installed the supplied servo covers over the servos and the servo arms/control rods for the wings. The landing gear was already installed, and the retracts were ready to plug into the receiver. Each wing half had a working bomb bay door that was servo controlled. The wings are connected with one long wooden wing rod made of plywood. We simply slid the wings onto the wing rod and centered the wing halves on the wing rod. Before securing the wing to the fuselage we connected the flap servos with a short Y connector I supplied and then into one end of the Y harness supplied for the flaps. The aileron servos and bomb bay servos were connected together with the supplied Y harnesses. The ailerons were #1, flaps were #6 and the bomb bay doors were #7. The landing gear Tri-harness was #5 but their servo leads were long enough that we connected them after the wing was mounted to the fuselage. The wing was mounted to the bottom of the fuselage with four supplied long bolts. We found a little glue in two of the nuts in the fuselage that Dick cleared out using the mounting bolt, but that was the only problem with the wing. The final step on the wing was securing the propellers onto the motors. We used a pair of regular pliers and needle nose pliers to hold the motor shaft and secure the prop nut in place. The decorative cover was then installed onto the nose of each motor.
We slid the horizontal stabilizer into the rear of the fuselage as it came in the kit. We ran the servo wires into the fuselage and into servo wire extensions. Dick mounted the elevator control horns, connected the supplied control rods after activating the elevator servos and then mounted the servo covers. The horizontal stabilizer was secured in place with a bolt and glue. We later discovered that the left elevator servo only worked intermittently. It was a reversed red servo, and we replaced it with a servo supplied by our friend Dan Anema who had some extra servos from a crashed plane. By carefully removing the servo and the tape covering the servo wire and cutting a hole from the inside of the fuselage at the tail wheel our repair is not noticed by others. (Banana Hobby would have sent a free replacement servo if we had contacted them; Dan did so for one of his planes.)
We connected the rudder servo with the receiver up in the wing saddle and activated the servo. I connected the control horn and control rod and covered the servo with the supplied servo plate. The vertical stabilizer was secured in place with the supplied glue. I glued one of my Lego figures in place as the tail gunner and glued the tail gunner housing in place on the back top of the fuselage under the rudder. The last item was installing the control arm on the servo that is used to steer the tail wheel.
Besides the tail gunner mentioned above, I installed a pilot and co-pilot into our B-17 in the pilot's compartment and a navigator and two gunners in the nose. With the crew installed, I secured the clear nose piece in place with the supplied glue and glued the cover over the cockpit. The last step was gluing on the 50 caliper machine guns beside the nose and into the fuselage sides behind the wing. Besides installing the tail pieces, the radio installation and installing the flight battery packs were the only other tasks for the fuselage. We installed our flight packs in the nose of the fuselage and had to trim a little foam from the wooden deck inside the fuselage. To that deck we installed Velcro to secure our twin battery packs. Dick bought the two recommended Genesis Power battery packs at 14.8V and 2200mAh each. We secured the packs to the deck with Velcro and did not use the supplied straps.
I installed the receiver near the back of the cockpit area using Velcro on the receiver and the main wooden platform and Velcro on the foam side of the fuselage for the satellite receiver. The throttle uses a Y-connector that connects all four speed controllers to the receiver. The ailerons are marked #1, and I plugged the #1 Y-harness into channel two which is ailerons on my receiver. The elevator extension connected both elevator servos into channel #3 and the rudder connector connected both the rudder servo and the steering servo for the tail wheel went into #4. The connector for the landing gear was numbered 5, and it has three female sockets to handle the tail retract and the two wing retracts. The flaps are connected using the channel six harness. I used a short Y connector for the flaps as their wires are very short. Per the instructions, channel six is used to connect both the flaps and the BEC to supply power from one of the two motor batteries. This is a separate BEC as shown in the picture below. I used the BEC when setting up the controls but not for actual flying. Dick supplied a 5-cell 1200mAh NiMH battery to power the receiver, landing gear and servos. We installed the receiver battery in the front of the cockpit just behind the motor batteries. The battery plugs into a separate battery connector on the receiver. Channel 7 has another Y-harness and it connects the two bomb bay doors which can be opened and closed in flight. We have not yet worked out what we will drop as there is limited space between the doors and the main wooden platform in the fuselage. There are spaces in the sides of the platform for the wires from the wing to come through to connect up the motors to the ESCs and the servos to the receiver.
The bomb bay doors don't open all the way with the standard servo arms so Dick will find some longer control arms for the servos so that the doors will fully open.
The motors are powered in pairs by the batteries, with one motor from each wing side per battery pack. If one pack fails we should still have two motors operating one on each wing half. Motors 1,3 and 4 connected to their responding ESCs by matching the three colors to each other. Motor 2 ran in reverse when connected that way so we plugged it in red to black and black to red with the middle wire remaining the same. The power from the four motors seems very even but we have not done any testing other than flying. There is a landing light on each wing half in the front leading edge of the wing. There are no other navigation lights on the plane. The lights each have a red/black wire combo, and they plug into matching connectors from the speed controllers. The LEDs are powered by the flight pack batteries.
The instructions give control throws for the ailerons, rudder, elevator and flaps. I left that up to Dick, and he programmed in Dual Rate as well. As for the C/G, we went with a balance point about 5 1/2 inches back from the wing's leading edge as measured right next to the fuselage.
The video below shows the initial takeoff and at 3/4s throttle she was climbing excessively per our initial set up. I put in some down trim and Dick later in the flight added a little left rudder trim but otherwise she flew fine. Our friend Dan Anema has the Memphis Belle B-17 which has a 79" wingspan and looks to be the same as our plane but with a different color scheme. Dan applied full throttle for his takeoff and she leaped into the air after a very short run as he flies her. Landings are made with power on but slowly slowing down while descending. So far with all takeoffs and landings basically into the wind, the landings and takeoffs have been uneventful. I like to use slow acceleration for more scalelike takeoffs and longer landings with more scalelike roll outs.
Dan has shown us that the plane can do both a loop and a roll. He also flies his with bursts of full throttle which is very much faster than scale. He can give the Mustangs a run for their money. Dick and I try to fly ours in a more scalelike manner. We've done no loops or rolls so far, and don't plan to. Flying her in a scalelike fashion is very special performance for me, and that is what I will be striving for with my stick time. The plane's flaps work but really aren't needed unless you are landing in a really small field. The plane can be flown slower with the flaps (which are split flaps, not see as flaps from above) down as they do supply more lift. There is limited clearance and space in the bomb bay but the doors can be remotely opened and closed so objects can be dropped from the plane. To fully open the bomb bay doors, longer servo arms then those that came with the kit are needed. Dropping objects and planning for the drift of the objects can be a lot of fun and a real challenge from altitude on a windy day. It helped make me appreciate the problems faced by the crews in the war.
In the first video below Dick didn't go more than 3/4s throttle but she was still flying very fast. Towards the end of the video she is flown a little slower but she handled great throughout. Dan's plane is on the second video, and I caught video of a roll and some high speed passes.
No! Learn to fly a trainer plane and advance to being an intermediate pilot before considering flying the B-17. She is not a hard plane for an experienced pilot to fly.
(Double click on picture to see an enlarged version of the picture.)
There are two different videos posted below and each comes in two formats. The second format for each video is on You Tube. The first video is Dick flying the maiden flight of our Nine-O-Nine and the second video is Dan flying his Memphis Bell.
We had one servo as mentioned above that proved to work intermittently. We were able to replace that servo with an extra that Dan had on hand but we know that Banana Hobby would have shipped us a free replacement as They have done so for another club member when he had a bad servo earlier this year. Other than that servo problem the plane was easy to assembly, looks and flies great. Unfortunately, she is so large we have to take the wing off to transport her to and from the field but she isn't a difficult assembly at the field as all wires are numbered for ease of assembly.
Our club members are starting to build up our own Eighth Air Force. We have two of these 79" wingspan B-17s and a third club member has ordered and received the 79" wingspan Silver colored Fuddy Duddy. Dick and I love the way our Nine-O-Nine looks both on the ground and in the air. She can fly way faster then scale but flies fairly scalelike slightly above 1/2 throttle without being sluggish but we haven't tried to fly her too slowly thus far. Dick and I really enjoy this plane and we're glad she went together in just two relaxed assembly sessions so we can fly her the rest of the summer and at our club's warbird event this fall.
My thanks to Dick Andersen my co-owner on this self-funded review and to Dan Anema for flying his Memphis Belle for this review and supplying a servo for our bird. Now Dick and I just need to figure out what we will drop from the bomb bay on our next mission.

Thanks for the review.
Did you check the cg before flight?
FYI - there is an in dept discussion on CG (and also motor wiring with respect to prop direction/electronics failure, ESC requirements etc) in this review of the same model:
Looks good, but what's with the 'solid' (B-29 style) top turret?
Overall, the plane looks good. Not crazy about the engine cowls, but not really bothered by them. That turret though... I'd have to replace it with something that at least looks close to "right". And I'm not big on modding like that.
Thanks for the review!
You're lucky only one servo didn't work LOL!
Bill Davenport
I've simply come to expect and accept that most low cost, discount, chinese r/c airplanes are going to have some defects right out of the gate. I read the reviews, buy the additional servos ahead of time, then inspect the plane when it comes. Very rarely do I ever get a plane that meets my standards. I'm used to bolstering hinges, replacing servos, adjusting linkages, hot glue/epoxying parts from the start. Its the age we live in I guess. As a consequence, my planes fly better than stock. As a general rule; replace the elevator servo with a known quality servo, no matter what the model or how new it is. If the other servos fail, you should at least be able to fly it back.
Like Miska said there are smart precautions to take with any of these cheap foamies. Even Parkzone products have issues, at least with FMS/Blitz/Dynam you get better foam and a ton more cool details, for less money.
Have a read at what a PITA the so-called "Bind and Fly" PZ Albatros (more expensive than the B-17, with about 1/6 the complexity!) is to build:
Let's see your BBB link on Parkzone, like the one I posted for BH above. There's a difference between having one out of a hundred products that a few people don't like, and loosing your BBB accreditation. Try and get the product service and Warranty from BH (LOL!). Fuggeddaboutit.
Bill Davenport
First, the BBB is a scam. They're a lot like the mafia in that they strong arm businesses for "donations" or else.
With 350 complaints logged against Banana Hobby on BBB why do you think they have a "D-" rating, and not an "F"?
Really, a D-?
Could it be because BBB is trying to force Banana to become a "BBB Member"?
It's funny, I've read that about BH having their BBB "Accreditation" "revoked" somewhere else, but the site makes no mention of it. Google takes me to a RCG thread, with the following reason given for the it being "revoked":
375 complaint(s) filed against business
Failure to respond to 6 complaint(s) filed against business
So 6 unresolved out of 375, and the BBB revokes their "accreditation"?
I bet BH refused to pay the BBB any more money. Good for them.
Considering the thousands and thousands of transactions BH does and the nature of the products (complicated, delicate planes/helis/electronics) the number of complaints isn't at all out of line.
Did you read through any of the complaints Bill?
I did, and many are BS.
Guy complains that his plane took 2 weeks to arrive, after he orders it on a Friday night. And it was missing a control horn (which he probably lost), and a servo y-harness was bad. Many of them are complaints about having to pay postage to send the item back (Terms are on the website for anyone who cares to check).
A good percentage of the complaints are ticky tack stuff.
All I can speak from is my experience, and Banana Hobby has been prompt to address the few issues I've had with their products.
Horizon Hobby's service is top notch, no doubt about it. I own and enjoy many of their products, and have made use of their customer service quite a few times as well. I'm just done paying twice the price for a product with less features. I will, however, be making many more purchases from BH.
best regards,
PS: the AMA is a scam as well
Sorry Kurt, I won't argue because the facts speak for themselves. 350 people complained before BH was dropped accreditation, their would be thousands now if they hadn't been dropped. Come on, have you noticed you are the only protagonist? Yeah right, everything is a conspiracy.. LOL...
Bill Davenport
Bill your point about potentially thousands of complaints if they hadn't been "dropped" is false. There were 2 complaints just last month (both questionable).
Take a look at how many complaints Amazon has....
There's no conspiracy that I know of, just good old fashioned extortion.
Great thing about America - you're free to pay more for less with Horizon if you wish.
PS had 5 excellent flights with my BH/FMS Mustang yesterday. Great plane, even if it cost $100+ more like the PZ equivalent.
OK Mike, I'll try and get this thread back on topic and away from the BH bashing.
I enjoyed your review and I've had my eye on this series of Flying Fortresses for a while now. I think you may have pushed me over the edge (dang your hide!) cause these birds look great in the air!
I noticed that you stated the motors were wired in pairs and that one motor from each wing was paired with the same motor from the other wing. I guess that means that the inner two motors were paired and the outer two motors were paired. By pairing the motors like this, if one battery went to LVCO the plane would still fly straight ahead and would just seem to lose power. This seems like a reasonable setup.
On my twin motor planes I like to set up differential throttle to help with ground handling and rudder response when airborne. My question is, are the individual motor wires and ESC connections and RX leads accessible so that you could rewire them for differential throttle operation? To maintain the motor pairing on the batteries, maybe seperating just the outer motor servo leads and taking them to seperate throttle channels might be an answer.

Knock knee
im a 19 year old fresman in college and wondering about correcting knock knees. I am physically active and play college football, and im wondering if correcting knock knees could be possible without affecting my speed and strength?
Genu valgus or "Knock Knees" is fairly common. The degree of your problem depends on the severity of deformity. With your present abilities as an athlete you may be served by the use of orthotics and physical therapy. If you are referring to surgical correction of your problem you would be better served seeking an evaluation and recommendation of an orthopedic surgeon. We are all primary care physicians. Only an actual physical encounter with a physician can determine what may benefit you.

The newest Supernanny, Deborah Tillman, will be helping empower parents to focus on the positives in Lifetime's latest series, starting tomorrow night (November 29). "It looks more like America," the experienced childcare provider tells Celebrity Baby Scoop about the new series titled America's Supernanny.
Deborah has her skills put to the test when she meets the Weeks-Suszczynski family in the series premiere. When dad Mark isn't working 70 hours a week as a chef at his restaurant, he spends his free time mountain biking and skiing, leaving mom Kim to deal with 4-year-old Tate and his sisters, Nora, 5, and Neva, 9.
The childcare expert opened up to Celebrity Baby Scoop about guiding families across America toward "positive parenting."
What I believe in is positive parenting, which means that you are praising and encouraging good behavior in order to reinforce those good behaviors," Deborah said. "Most families I work with like to focus on the negative behaviors. They say things like, 'He's always hitting, he's always screaming,' but they're not focusing on when the child is good, when the child is sitting down, listening, and doing what you ask them to do. They just seem to focus on everything that the child does wrong."
Tune into Lifetime Tuesday night (November 29) at 9 P.M. EST for the premiere of America's Supernanny.

Locals win crazy game
Anoka 12, Humboldt 9. Sounds like a City League score doesn't it? But no teams of the City League ever made that many runs on so few errors. The heavy hitting of both teams was in a great part responsible for the large score.
To begin with, Allison was not in his usual form, for he was somewhat inclined to put the ball beyond the reach of the batter and four of the six passes resulted in runs. The heavy hitting of his teammates, kept defense away, and three hits by Stubby himself, made up to a great extent for the runs he allowed.

The SdKfz 247 Leichter Panzerspähwagen was an armored car that was used by Germany during World War II.
The SdKfz 247 had a Horch 3.5 engine that was capable of propelling it at speeds of up to 80 kilometers per hour. The SdKfz 247 also had a crew of six men and an armament that consisted of a single MG 34 mounted in a gunner position. The total length of the SdKfz 247 was about 5 meters while the total weight was about 4,000 kilograms.[1] The SdKfz 247's armor protection was about 8 mm thick. Although it was armed with an MG 34, the car itself was designed for reconnaissance purposes only as was the thinly protected crew compartment and open roof.
The 247 also had a 4 speed forward, 1 speed reverse transmission system and had good reliability. Although, the Ausf. A model had very limited capability for traveling cross-country and as was advised by the crew's superiors, the SdKfz 247 was limited to mainly roads only.
The first and only variant of the SdKfz 247 armored car series was the Ausf. B version. It had an improved chassis and an improved maximum range of 400 kilometers. Furthermore, the engine of the Ausf. B was upgraded. In total, about fifty-eight of the Ausf. B models were made.
The SdKfz 247 was first developed 1937 and the Ausf. A model was produced later the same year. However, the Ausf. B was only produced several years later in 1941. The cars were used in limited service throughout the war. In total, sixty-eight examples were made.[2] Because of few were built, it is very rare for wartime photographs of the vehicles in service to arise. Furthermore, no examples still survive to today.

There was an undefeated team on the field that stood one win away from reaching the Super Bowl and capping the greatest season in NFL history.
But it wasn't the lead story.
Not with Philip Rivers playing. Not with the Chargers quarterback taking on the Patriots sans a crucial ally – his anterior cruciate ligament.
Rivers tore his left ACL in San Diego's four-point win over the Colts one week earlier. Normally, such an injury keeps those who suffer it away from the field for at least a year.
Not No. 17.
Rivers had a clandestine scope surgery on Monday, was on crutches through Thursday, and back on the practice field by Friday. He would suit up come game time and throw 37 passes in an eventual nine-point loss to New England.

Chargers 2013-14 season in review
He said that that particular Sunday happened to be the feast day of St. Sebastian – a patron saint for athletes – which let him know that there was no way he was going to miss the game.
But there may have been another influence outside of the celestial realm: It was the playoffs – and if you're in the NFL, you're going to do whatever you can to play.
"Getting to this point, obviously it's win or go home. And a lot of guys – they find a way to be out there," Rivers said. "I think that brings guys closer together. It makes you want to fight for one another. Every team that's still in it has guys that are banged up…you have to find a way to be at your best."
We hear stories about players who can't get out of bed Monday morning during the regular season. During the playoffs, they struggle to merely adjust their pillows.
There are no seven-game series, no do-overs, and no chances for redemption. So most players feel that enduring three hours of physical pain trumps the decades of mental anguish that goes with sitting out.
That's why you see guys like Jack Youngblood playing through the postseason on a broken leg, or Terrell Davis banging in the Super Bowl with a migraine, or former Chargers tight end Kellen Winslow fighting dehydration in a playoff game vs. the Dolphins – being carried off the field one moment and blocking a field goal the next.

Chargers 2013-14 season in review
You have to have a certain pain threshold to compete at this level. Everybody knows that. But when you actually see what some of these athletes go through, and then how they continue playing regardless, you may start to realize that, with some guys, their rise to the NFL goes beyond talent.
"You almost get used to it, and you take it for granted how tough some of these guys are," said Chargers backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst. "The things you put your body through – it's crazy. It's just incredible how they get ready. But I remember something my dad told me about playing hurt, and it's that not only do you play hurt – but you have to play good."
And that's where things can get complicated.
After the Chargers beat the Chiefs to clinch a playoff berth two weeks ago, Coach Mike McCoy addressed those who had never been in the playoffs before and asserted that the speed of the game was unlike anything they'd ever seen.
This makes sense on a mental and motivational level, as those involved realize the significance of every play in a lose-or-go-home situation. But from a physical standpoint, McCoy's warning seems completely counterintuitive.
By this point in the season, an NFL player's body either tattooed with bumps and bruises or riddled with sprains and separations. Had you scanned the Chargers locker room earlier in the week ,you'd have seen Ryan Mathews and D.J. Fluker each wearing walking boots while Nick Hardwick keeping mum on his concussion.
You can even argue that, while Rivers playing a week after his ACL tear six years ago forever rallied his teammates behind him, it was the wrong move seeing how he threw two interceptions and had a passer rating of 27.4. But nobody wants to live with the regret of skipping a game or letting down their teammates, which is why injuries in the postseason always seem to heal more quickly.
"This is the beautiful thing about the playoffs. When the stakes are the highest – it's weird, because that's when you feel the worst. Everybody feels terrible. Everybody is hurt," said Charges linebacker Jarret Johnson. "At this time of year, it's not necessarily who's the biggest or who's got the most talent – it's who's got the most will."
Chargers cornerback Shareece is wearing a bigger shoe than usual to accommodate his bummed heel. Safety Eric Weddle remembers battling MCL and shoulder injuries during his second year, saying that "you just want to get close to 90 percent – I won't even say 100 percent.
Tight end Antonio Gates, meanwhile, was asked Wednesday if there was a ever a time that he was willing to play in a playoff game when there was no way he would have done it in the regular season.
His response?
"Probably now."
He won't be sitting out, though. This is the time of the year where "questionable" becomes "probable," "probable" becomes "definitely" and "out" is an last resort.
These are the playoffs. Emphasis on play.

What is the best way to treat my Apple iBook lithium ion battery? Should I keep it plugged into the wall even when it is fully charged or should I unplug it? And if unplugging basically means letting the battery go down, should I let it go down to absolutely dead or half dead before recharging?
I've researched these questions and everyone says something different. Some say that deep cycling shortens the battery's life span; others say it does not. But no one says whether leaving it plugged in while fully charged is bad. Mary Oey New York City
Nothing irritates more than a computer running out of battery life when there are no mains sockets in sight. An updated version of Richard III would have him looking for a battery to save his kingdom, not a horse.
Much has been said about batteries and, as you rightly point out, much of it is questionable.
People in the computer industry bemoan the slow progress of battery capacity compared with other aspects of technology. The problem is that batteries are not part of the electronics revolution but are still firmly in the world of chemistry.
Progress has been made in creating batteries that last longer, but the advances are still extremely small. A battery brick that lasted two hours 10 years ago, now can just about make it to six.
Although you ask about the iBook, most of what follows is true for any battery for a PC or Mac.
I spoke to some experts, including local computer dealers and people who work in the television business, where battery life is a matter of staying on air. These are people who take battery life seriously.
A healthy lithium ion battery should last longer than any other kind but there are things to be aware of.
Keeping the battery plugged into the mains should not be a problem as long as your computer knows that it is not meant to be charging it. This could be tricky because the icon on the screen may not accurately reflect what is going on. If you have any doubts about this and will be using the machine for long periods plugged into the mains, you may want to take the battery out.
The secret to lithium ion batteries is that, although they can be charged to last for many hours, they cannot be charged indefinitely. One expert said a lithium ion battery could be charged about 1,200 times. After that, it would begin to degrade. So, each time you begin a charge, you are slightly killing the battery.
Obviously, this has led to the idea that you should let the battery go down to as close as zero power before recharging it.
Once again, one must be careful here because letting it go totally flat can also be a bad thing. However, most batteries and personal computers have built-in mechanisms that prevent this.
In the end, though, the day will certainly come when you will need to buy a new battery.
If you travel extensively and think you'll use your battery a lot, you may want to get a second one.

Sen. John Marty says it's better to go with the devil you know than the devil you don't. The Roseville DFLer is one of the most vocal critics of taxpayer funding for sports stadiums. He has repeatedly voted against a plan that would finance an on-campus football stadium for the University of Minnesota.
Marty said the multi-million-dollar-a-year state commitment could be better spent on health care and schools. But Marty says he switched his vote when he learned that Taxes Committee Chair Larry Pogemiller was negotiating with Republican members to get them to switch their votes.
"I still think the bill is too much money for what it's worth. I don't think this is a wise decision to do but they had the votes and I do think this bill is more responsible than the House bill," Marty said.
The House Bill pays for the stadium out of the state's general fund.
The proposal the Senate Taxes Committee finally approved relies on a 13-percent tax on sports memorabilia to pay for the state's portion of the stadium. It amounts to about $13 million a year. Over the past week Marty had joined every Republican on the committee to defeat the memorabilia tax.
Efforts to approve the bill without the tax failed when Republicans complained that instead of Republican Sen. Geoff Michel, not Sen. Pogemiller, should be the chief author of the bill because he'd worked on the issue for two years.
Pogemiller, who has been under fire over his approach to stadium legislation, was relieved when the committee finally approved the stadium bill. He characterized the past week as a "stadium nightmare" when he adjourned his committee.
"There's been difficult days in the tax committee related to this and we just have too many members that want to build things without paying for them... I'm not very enthusiastic about stadiums, but at least this one is paid for and is being for in a fair manner," he said.
Pogemiller has criticized the House plan. That measure involves a $9.4 million annual state payment. Senate Minority Leader Dick Day, a Republican from Owatonna, says his caucus will provide no support for the DFL Senate plan because it spends even more taxpayer money.
"It's DOA on arrival and I will tell you $12.9 million on the floor. It's a major problem for this," Day said.
Other Republicans criticized the sports merchandise tax. Republican Warren Limmer of Maple Grove says the tax is too large and too broad to be earmarked for one U of M stadium.
"You've got taxes on Vikings products, you've got taxes on baseball products and NBA products, and it all goes for just the narrow focus of paying for a college stadium," Limmer said.
Officials with the University of Minnesota say it's a postive sign that the bill is out of the Taxes Committee and is moving to the Senate floor.
The Senate is scheduled to vote on bills to finance three stadiums on Monday. If the bills pass, the DFL-controlled Senate will be setting up a confrontation with the House. The Senate is poised to pass a half-percent, metro-wide sales tax that would fund retractrable roof stadiums for the Twins and the Vikings and also funds transportation projects. The tax would need voter approval.
The House passed a Twins bill that relies on a Hennepin County sales tax to fund a downtown Minneapolis ballpark for the Twins without voter approval. It's also working on a bill that would allow Anoka County to impose a sales tax for a Vikings stadium in Blaine.
On a divided voice vote, the House Governmental Operations Committee sent the Vikings bill onto the next committee without recommendation. In a news conference highlighting their push for a new stadium, Vikings owner Zygi Wilf says he prefers the House bill over the Senate's approach.
"It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that we get all three of them done. I would prefer to have it done along the lines, for our particular purposes, of the plan that just went through the committee, which we have in partnership with the county," Wilf said.
Wilf says he'll continue to make his case for a Vikings stadium with the hopes that some sort of funding plan makes it to conference committee, where differences between House and Senate bills are hammered out. Lawmakers have until May 22 to reconcile their differences on the bills.

Why Metabones®?
Since its inception, Metabones has been designing and manufacturing lens adapters recognized among professionals and enthusiasts as leaders in design and workmanship.
Contrary to the popular trend of other factories using an aluminum ring painted black on the camera-body-side, we instead take no short-cut but use precision-machined brass with chromium plating on both the camera-body and the lens sides of our adapters, in order to ensure smooth mounting, great appearance, and durability. The lens side of the adapter features a strong leaf-spring structure, strengthening the adapter-lens connection and ensuring tightness of the lens in order to reduce wear and prevent focus errors and optical alignment issues from appearing.
Metabones uses matte-black treatment to keep internal reflection to a minimum in order to maintain the maximum optical quality possible with the lens.
All Metabones Adapters follow this tradition of uncompromising precision, robust build quality and outstanding finish. Our new Smart AdapterTM series of products add industry-leading electronic interfacing technology from Canada, with true electronic control of the lens' aperture directly from the camera body.
- Both camera-side and lens-side of the adapter are made of brass, precision-machined and plated with chromium.
- Satin surface finish - just like your OEM lens and camera mounts.
- Precise fit and solid connection - lens has no play, gap or wiggling when mounted on adapter and no adjustments are required to fit your lens.
- Designed to reach infinity focus while maintaining the correct registration distance required to maintain optical quality of CRC lenses or lenses with floating elements.
Our Smart AdapterTM series adapters have the following additional features
- True electronic integration of aperture diaphragm - let camera automatically choose aperture in P or S exposure modes, or dial in yourself on the camera body in A or M modes.
- EXIF data such as lens identification, focal length and aperture.

"When I met Bryan Anderson, I knew I was meeting someone exceptional. He put me immediately at ease. Here he was, this triple amputee, with every reason to be pissed off at the world, meeting someone who never wore the uniform. He pulled himself up on the chair, smiled with that shit-eating grin of his, and told me his astounding story. Bryan is among that rare breed of hero, that takes in all the worst the world can heap on you, and lets it make him stronger, and makes the rest of us want to be better….he will make you think, and he will make you laugh, and you will be better for having read [his book]."—James Gandolfini

HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard
The Question is:
I want to try and use the Hobbyist VMS version on my Alpha XL-266 workstation. Before purchasing the OpenVMS Hobbyist CD and license I would like to know if my hardware platform is supported to run OpenVMS Alpha. Thank you for your answer - Patrick
The Answer is :
The OpenVMS Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) and the Ask The Wizard (ATW) area both contain discussions of this topic. In particular, please read the OpenVMS FAQ section entitled "Will OpenVMS Run On The Alpha XL Series?" and please see various discussions of the XL series here in ATW. Review of these documents -- the OpenVMS Wizard strongly encourages you to download and to use the text version of the FAQ, as that version is trivial to search using your web browser or other local search tools. While other formats are available for the FAQ, they are more difficult to search. If you wish to know which platforms are officially supported by OpenVMS, please review the OpenVMS Software Product Description. VAX and Alpha systems can have substantial low-level hardware variations, and adding support for a platform effectively involves porting OpenVMS to each new family of systems. (While easier than a port to a new architecture, this port can still be an involved and complex undertaking.) Variations can and do exist even within a family, and these (such as the IDE controller differences found across various members of the Professional Workstation series; please see the FAQ) can prohibit particular I/O widget support or potentially platform support. Put another way, just becausea system uses an Alpha processor does not mean that OpenVMS supports it, nor that OpenVMS will boot on it. In this case, the XL series is and will remain unsupported by OpenVMS. Again, OpenVMS is not supported on the XL series.

The New vs. the Renewed: Something to Hold On To
Thrift shopping has been a way of life for me for a long time. I've grown to value a garment or household item with a few imperfections more highly than I would a new one. Imagining what unknown recipes a wooden spoon was used for prior to arriving in my kitchen adds something to my life. My love...

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — In the movie "Father of the Bride, Part II," Steve Martin's character accompanies his wife, played by Diane Keaton, to an appointment with her gynecologist/obstetrician.
The couple had just realized they would soon be empty-nesters, with one child married and another about to finish middle school.
Surprisingly, they discover they are expecting another child.
As Martin tries to grasp the news, remarking that he is about to become a grandfather and pointing out that between the two of them they are almost a hundred years old, he says, "Things like this do not happen to men my age." And the doctor replies, "Come on. Picasso had children well into his 70s."
After a few minutes of disbelief and incessant talking, Martin's character faints.
Whether women find themselves expecting a child as they approach the golden years, or suddenly become the primary caretakers of their grandchildren, or decide to hold off having children in order to promote their careers, many women, according to a report in Psychology Today, are committed to waiting until their 50s (choosing to freeze their eggs) to start a family, asserting that they will be more financially secure and able to dedicate more time to their children.
The facts that people are living longer and are in better health as they age add to the belief that later is better.
A recent study at Boston University School of Medicine reported that "women who gave birth to children after the age of 40 were four times more likely to live to 100 than those who did not." Now that's something worth thinking about; although, when I mentioned it to my husband, his raised eyebrows spoke volumes.
Naturally, there are risks to having children later in life.
"After 40, the risk of having a child with autism increases by 30 percent for men and 50 percent for women. Advanced parental age is also associated with miscarriage, childhood cancer, autoimmune disease and schizophrenia and other neuropsychiatric disorders," according to Isabel Blumberg, OG/GYN at Mount Sinai Hospital in New York City.
However, studies indicate that donor eggs (which are usually young eggs) or egg freezing among over-45 parents show a low risk of Down syndrome.
And just as the reason to postpone having children varies, so it is for the approximately 3 million grandparents (a number that is consistently increasing) who find themselves raising their grandchildren by default.
Many of those grandparents, of course, expected their golden years to be a time to relax a bit, perhaps travel a little, and enjoy the fruits (however meager they may be) of their labors.
The reasons for leaving them sole guardians vary: financial struggles on the part of their children, incarceration of a parent or parents, divorce, illness, substance abuse, death of the parents.
If you find yourself living the golden years with children to raise, remember that children still like to do many of the same things their parents enjoyed as children. Reading to a child, attending their sporting events, and even learning computer skills with them will enhance your new parental responsibilities.
Also remember to seek out plenty of support through schools, libraries and church functions. Free information for grandparents raising their grandchildren can be found through AARP's Grandparent Information Center, where you can sign up for their newsletter. Check out their website at www.aarp.org/relationships/grandparenting.
Another great source for information can be found at www.childwelfare.gov; type "grandparents raising grandchildren" in the search box.
While raising children as a young parent is challenging, raising your grandchildren as you approach the golden years can be even more challenging. And while your physical stamina might not be as strong, "hanging out" with kids is always a great way to stay young at heart and young in mind.
Although stress, worry, anger and grief may accompany these responsibilities, knowing that you are helping to keep the family together and giving your grandchildren a sense of security will outweigh the challenges of raising the next generation.
In the process, remember to take care of yourself too, with the right nutrition and physical and mental exercise.
Tom and Christy Ramsey, of Montgomery, have been very instrumental in helping to raise their grandchildren. "One of the biggest challenges for me has been to try to fill in the gaps, especially to give my grandsons a sense of family, faith and gathering," Christy said.
"Today, with low wages, expenses and job stresses, parents sometimes have trouble taking care of everything. For me, love is the answer — as God would do. Give them as much love as you can and try to live an example of God's love in your life at all times."
Whether you find yourself embracing the joys and challenges of a beginner parent as you enter your golden years or assuming the primary responsibility of raising your grandchildren — unexpectedly or not — the very notion of being responsible for, caring for and nurturing the future still holds a position of the highest value, a position that has the potential to garner tremendous return on investment.

Benefit Thrrrob Reviews
HighlighterThis is a great highlighter. You don't need a lot for it to show, and I think any skin tone can wear it. It goes on smoothly and blends well. Good on top of cheekbones and on nose. — 5 years, 5 months agoCaroleVonAllten | 1401 reviews

nice colorThis blush actually gives off a nice color. I am not sure why it isn't more popular. I have fair skin and this give a nice flush of color. There is little shimmer but if you pop sugar bomb over top it looks great! — 5 years, 3 months agoTaylerbootz | 126 reviews
A pink for every skin tonePerfect pink cheeks is the best way to describe this powder. It doesn't take much to give the right amount of color and it's too easy to apply too much of this powder in the beginning. The downside is that you really do need to use a primer with this blush or else it tends to disappear in just a couple of hours. On the upside because it takes just a light swipe to give great color, this box wi...read morell last a really, really long time. Is it worth the investment? Yes, if you are looking for that universally flattering shade of pink that doesn't look clownish or cartoonish. — 6 years, 10 months agoradar626 | 326 reviews
Not for meI love Benefit's blushes, Coralista is my favourite ever, but this one just isn't pigmented enough. My skin is really fair and this blush doesn't show at all on my skin. Very disappointed. — 5 years, 6 months agohananoire | 49 reviews
PrettyI wanted this for a long time, finally bought it. I really do like it. The only thing, is if my skin is red from my acne, this sometimes makes it show through my foundation. This is not all the time though and if I apply it light enough, it's normally not a problem. — 6 years, 2 months agopinkdaisies | 6 reviews
okWhen I first applied the blush I thought it was great...and i thought it smellled good too. But within an hour or two it just wore off. I tried the blush another time and put some benetint underneath which made it last longer....so this blush was just alright for me — 7 years, 7 months agoemilyrose43 | 3 reviews
love it! perfect cheek flushI've got the hardest skin tone to please, pale pale olive, and this color looks perfect on my cheeks! Or where ever I put it! Feels and looks natural, and isn't too overpowering or bright. Great product! — 7 years, 9 months agoicmdn353 | 2 reviews
versatile blushThis is a great blush. It's versatile to complement my sister's pale skin with yellow undertones and my bronzed skin with more pink undertones. The powder is very fine and blends beautifully. — 7 years, 10 months agopingalingy | 4 reviews
not badI expected it to be more pigmented, but Benefit always has "boxes of powders" not "blushes". If I am in a light pink mood, this is an excellent blush, but overall, it is not outstanding. It looks good when paired with the 10. — 8 years, 5 months agotsunamino | 26 reviews
Flat-Lined For MEI love a lot of Benefit's products and usually have to try out whatever new comes out. I was so disappointed in this one. I have a medium complexion, I'm not pale but I'm not tan either. For the price, not worth it. I lightly dusted it on at first but couldn't tell I had anything on.
