|MLBPA Press Release
"The Players Association is proud to join the Commissioner, the Philadelphia Phillies and the Atlanta Braves in this weekends important tribute to the heroic men and women of our country's civil rights movement -- men and women who have risked, and continue to risk, their lives to bring equality, freedom, and economic and political self-sufficiency to all Americans. And it is an opportunity to honor those in baseball -- such as Jackie Robinson, Larry Doby, Branch Rickey, Hank Thompson, Luis Castro and Roberto Clemente -- who not only integrated a sport, but helped integrate a nation.
"This weekend's ceremonies, events and games also are a reminder that despite all the progress our country has made, we have yet to achieve completely Reverend Martin Luther Kings dream of a nation that embodies the true meaning of the creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal." We continue to debate as a nation the application of this creed in many contexts, including employment, labor and immigration policies. This weekend, perhaps the best way to honor the sacrifices so many have made to create a more free and just society is not only to pay tribute to what these heroes have accomplished but to also acknowledge the work that remains to be done."

LELAND—Several construction and expansion projects planned for the Brunswick County Complex in Bolivia are on track and nearing completion.
The new administration building is almost done, county manager Marty Lawing told commissioners at their three-day budget retreat last week at Magnolia Greens.

Using N900 to Geotag pictures taken with a DSLR
Posted on 2009-10-27 14:09 UTC by Sascha Makela. Status: Under consideration, Categories: Desktop, Location & Navigation, Media, Accessories.
While there are available multiple solutions for DSLR Geotagging, would it not be very convenient (and economical) to use the exiting equipment like the N900? This would eliminate need to carry (and purchase) a separate device.

ANT+ support

There exists a protocol named ANT+ which is touted as a low power wireless sensor network. Many devices use it, in particular bicycle computers and heart rate monitors. It apparently uses frequencies in the 2.4GHz band. I know there are many transceivers in the N900. I was hoping one of them could be made to work with ANT+. Even though I am a developer, I have never worked with wireless protocols or RF in general, so I thought I would ping on others here before going on a wild goose chase.
Some Linux software already works with the protocol using a USB adaptor that is basically an ANT+ to serial adaptor:

The euro weakened for a third day against the dollar, the longest losing streak in almost a month, after data showed European manufacturing shrank and unemployment rose in Germany, adding to concern the debt crisis will worsen.
The 17-nation currency dropped to a two-week low versus the yen on speculation European Central Bank President Mario Draghi will signal tomorrow policy makers are moving closer to cutting interest rates to spur growth. The dollar erased gains against the yen after private data showed U.S. companies added fewer workers than forecast in April, boosting bets the Federal Reserve may keep accommodative monetary policy in place longer.
"We have very bad purchasing-manager indexes and the first sign that Germany is cracking," said Boris Schlossberg, director of research at the online currency trader GFT Forex in New York. "The gangrene has spread from the periphery to the core. If Draghi hints that there will be more easing to come, the euro may be vulnerable and fall to the $1.30 level."
Europe's shared currency dropped 0.6 percent to $1.3153 at 10:28 a.m. in New York in its longest series of daily losses since April 5. The euro fell 0.6 percent to 105.38 yen and touched 105.13 yen, the lowest since April 16. The dollar was little changed at 80.13 yen after appreciating as much as 0.7 percent earlier.
The euro dropped against most of its 16 major peers as London-based Markit Economics said its purchasing-manager index of euro-region manufacturing shrank for a ninth month, sliding to a 34-month low of 45.9 in April from 47.7 in March. A reading below 50 shows contraction.
The number of people out of work in Germany increased a seasonally adjusted 19,000 last month to 2.87 million, the Nuremberg-based Federal Labor Agency said. Economists surveyed by Bloomberg forecast a decline of 10,000. Yields on Germany's two-, five-, 10-, and 30-year bonds dropped to record lows.
Draghi tomorrow may 'begin to hint that the outlook for the European economy is clearly beginning to deteriorate again," said Robert Rennie, chief currency strategist at Westpac Banking Corp. in Sydney. "Within the next couple of months, the possibility of further rate cuts from the ECB is rising."
The central bank will keep its benchmark interest rate at a record low 1 percent at tomorrow's meeting in Barcelona, according to all 58 economists surveyed by Bloomberg News.
If the euro weakens below $1.30 after the ECB's meeting tomorrow, it could trigger further depreciation as support levels are breached, GFT Forex's Schlossberg said. Support is an area on a chart where buy orders may be clustered.
Spain will auction three- and five-year notes tomorrow amid speculation that the euro area's fourth-largest economy will follow Greece, Ireland and Portugal in seeking a bailout. France and Greece hold elections on May 6.
The euro weakened 6.5 percent over the past 12 months, the worst performance of the 10 developed-nation currencies tracked by Bloomberg Correlation Weighted Indexes. The dollar climbed 6.4 percent, and the yen appreciated 6.3 percent.
The Dollar Index briefly pared gains after a report showed U.S. companies added fewer jobs than forecast. Private employers' payrolls increased by 119,000 workers last month, after a revised 201,000 gain in March, according to Roseland, New Jersey-based ADP Employer Services. The median forecast of economists in a Bloomberg News survey was for a 170,000 advance.
U.S. nonfarm payrolls added 160,000 jobs in April, up from 120,000 the previous month, another Bloomberg survey showed before the Labor Department reports the data on May 4.
Orders to U.S. factories fell 1.5 percent in March, after a revised 1.1 percent gain in February, a Commerce Department report showed today.
While the Fed refrained at a two-day meeting last week from new actions to boost the economy, Chairman Ben S. Bernanke said it's "prepared to do more" if necessary. The central bank bought $2.3 trillion of bonds in two rounds of quantitative easing from December 2008 to June 2011 to lower borrowing costs. The Dollar Index fell 14 percent during that period.
Four U.S. central-bank officials have said they don't see a need to ease policy further as the economy expands. John Williams, president of the San Francisco Fed, joined his counterparts from Richmond, Philadelphia and Atlanta yesterday in casting doubt on the need for additional purchases of bonds to cap longer-term interest rates.
The Dollar Index, which Intercontinental Exchange Inc. uses to track the greenback against the currencies of six major U.S. rose 0.4 percent today to 79.193 and reached 79.319, the highest level since April 24.
The yen dropped earlier versus the dollar after Moody's Investors Service said the role of lawmaker Ichiro Ozawa in Japan's tax reform talks may have an impact on the country's credit rating.
An increase in the country's consumption tax "is a significant issue that hasn't been resolved yet," Tom Byrne, senior vice president at Moody's told reporters in Manila. "Ozawa's role in the debate, there could be implications there, but right now we don't see anything."

The best walking tracks in Leigh
The coastal fishing village of Leigh has lovely walking tracks that offer good seaviews.
The beautiful coastal fishing village at Leigh has many walking tracks for visitors to explore. The Goat Island coastal walk begins at the Leigh Marine Laboratory, crosses farmland and travels through a valley of native bush.
Pretty Leigh Harbour has a track from the boat ramp, passes the Jolly Fisherman's Lodge, and around the harbour through native bush.
From the beach at Matheson Bay a track travels along the west side of the stream, through native bush that includes Kauri trees and a small waterfall.
If you want to meander a little more the Leigh coastline track is edged with large pohutukawa trees that bloom with bright red flowers early summer. Views across Omaha Bay stretch out to the Tawharanui Peninsula. At any time you might be lucky to spot dolphins, orca or whales that frequently pass the coast.
The Ti Point track begins near the wharf and follows the foreshore along the south coast to the Ti Point Scenic Reserve. From here the view is out over the Hauraki Gulf to Little Barrier and Coromandel Peninsula. Large pohutukawa trees line the shore and there are good views over Omaha Bay.
Pakiri Beach is just over the hill from Leigh and is a beautiful beach that offers a chance to get away from the crowds. Omaha Beach has a long white sandy beach plus toardwalks that cross from the beach over the sand dunes. The northern area of the sandspit has some endangered birds plus oyster catchers, gulls and other seabirds. A series of pouwhenua (carved Maori poles) stand amongst the sand dunes.
Other great places for walking include the regional parks at Tawharanui, Scandretts, and Mahurangi.

James Cameron is taking his 3-D mission beyond the multiplexes, aiming to get a toehold in American homes with 3-D TVs and Blu-Ray players in a partnership with Panasonic while tubthumping his "Avatar" pic.
The manufacturer has been named exclusive audiovisual partner for the 3-D film and will promote it along with several of its upcoming products, including its Full HD 3-D technology, in a global advertising campaign.
A truck tour showing a clip from the film on a 103-inch 3-D HDTV will be part of the promo push.
"Any attention to 3-D is good," said Eisuke Tsuyuzaki, chief technology officer of Panasonic. "A tie-in with a landmark movie sends a strong message not only to consumers but to the industry in general."
Panasonic is betting big on 3-D's future in homes. The company has established a division to help studios develop 3-D Blu-ray technology and is investing heavily in home electronics to take advantage of those features.
Cameron predicted that 3-D will become ubiquitous on all screens and made a point of making all video displays seen in "Avatar" 3-D.
While 3-D has commanded higher ticket prices at cinemas, there has not yet been a homevid release using the latest 3-D technologies, so there's no precedent for 3-D Blu-ray disks to also be sold at a premium price.
A Fox spokesman said the studio would announce the date of the "Avatar" homevideo release after the pic's theatrical window has closed, as is its usual policy, and all announcements pertaining to price and 3-D would be made at that time.
While this partnership is centered on "Avatar," Tsuyuzaki noted that it is not an exclusive relationship with Fox.
"Content is the driver and we're certainly looking forward to working with not only Fox's 'Avatar,' but with Disney, Lionsgate and other companies," he said.
Today, DVD or Blu-ray titles have to be downgraded to lesser anaglyph 3-D technology to bring 3-D into the home. "Coraline" and "Jonas Bros: The 3-D Concert Experience" are among 2009 titles that have featured such technology, which produces what some observers deem murky images with poor color.
Panasonic, though, is preparing to launch a stereoscopic 3-D plasma home theater system, which would more accurately re-create the theater experience.
While the company has not announced a launch date beyond 2010 for the system, which is dubbed "Full HD 3-D," the marketing relationship with Fox suggests the technology will available before the home release of "Avatar."
Cameron and Panasonic worked together during the filming of "Avatar," with the helmer relying heavily on the company's equipment. The director is also working with vidgame producer Ubisoft to create a stereoscopic game tie-in. That game will hit stores on Nov. 24, more than three weeks prior to the film's Dec. 18 bow.
"Avatar" is expected to be among the first, if not the very first, stereoscopic Blu-ray releases. The Blu-ray Disc Assn. is developing universal specifications for such titles so they will work on 3-D Blu-ray players from various manufacturers.
Panasonic has privately been demonstrating its Full HD 3-D system using a 3-D Blu-ray version of Disney's "Up."

Tips to Find the Best Homeowners Insurance Coverage
For most middle-class families, the home is the most valuable asset -- often outstripping even the 401(k) and 403(b) for all but the most diligent savers.
Yes, for generations the home has been an important store of value for Americans. It's often a treasured asset -- a legacy that older Americans can pass down to their children and grandchildren. In other cases, it's a vital source of retirement income -- converted to cash either via an outright sale or rental, or thought the conversion of home equity to a reverse mortgage.
The problem: Your home is at risk. Every day, Americans lose their homes to a variety of hazards -- and not just to the obvious.
Fortunately, loss or severe damage to a personal residence lends itself well to insurance. But too many Americans don't adequately protect themselves against possible devastating losses -- losses they simply can't afford.
These mistakes are almost always avoidable -- if the homeowner is well advised. Here are some of the most common mistakes homeowners make when insuring their homes.
Not getting flood insurance
It cannot be stated plainly or forcefully enough: Standard homeowners insurance policies do not cover flood damage. Yet every time there's a major flood or hurricane in an area that is only rarely affected by flood, we see a huge number of families who have no financial protection against flood damage whatsoever.
The risk, for the individual homeowner, is huge. The average claim actually paid out for Hurricane Sandy, the storm that ravaged Florida and the Northeastern Seaboard in 2012, was $58,358. The average paid claim after Hurricane Katrina was $97,052 -- per policy affected.
But only 13% of Americans have a flood insurance policy, according to the Insurance Information Institute.
If you can't afford to lose this amount of money, you need flood insurance. For private homeowners, this is normally only available via the National Flood Insurance Program. This is a federal program that underwrites up to $250,000 for your home, and another $100,000 for its contents.
Is your home or contents more valuable? You probably should look at buying additional coverage. For more information, visit Floodsmart.gov.
Poor or non-existent household inventories
If you have items of value in the home, you should document those items -- before the disaster strikes. Otherwise, an insurer could challenge your claim. Fortunately, the insurance industry has provided a number of tools to make the inventory process easier. Among them: KnowYourStuff.org. This interactive website makes it easy for you to upload digital photographs of your valuables, along with other identifying information, such as serial numbers and model numbers. You can even download a handy app for your iPhone or Android to make it even easier. If you have many valuable items, such as an art, antique, or musical instrument collection, you may need to speak with your agent about securing additional coverage for your belongings.
If you use your home for business purposes, you may also need to arrange for additional coverage.
Inventory information is confidential, and stored off site, so you don't have to worry that the same disaster that destroyed your home will also destroy your inventory documents.
Underestimating replacement cost
Remember -- market value and replacement costs can be very different. For example, with many older homes, local ordinances require you to rebuild according to new building codes, not the codes in force at the time the home was first constructed. For example, you may have to totally replace plumbing or wiring, use different materials, or put your whole house up on stilts when you rebuild, depending on local ordinances in your area. Look at your policy to see what code upgrades it will include. You may need to speak with your agent about adding ordinance or law coverage, and/or extended replacement coverage, which expands your policy limit by 25% to account for increased replacement costs.
Not insuring against local risks
Some areas have risks specific to the locality that are not covered under standard homeowners insurance policies. For example, sinkholes are a major problem in parts of Florida. Earthquakes are a part of life in California. Some areas are at elevated risk of wildfires, and insurers may require you to take specific steps to mitigate your risk of loss by fire. The mistake many people make is assuming their off-the-shelf homeowners policy covers sinkholes, earthquakes, and the like. Typically, they do not. Usually you must purchase separate specialty coverage to insure against these kinds of location-specific risks.
Not understanding depreciation
Many policies don't insure your property for actual repair or replacement cost. Instead, they deduct a depreciation allowance from your property each year. They cover only the cost of a repair minus the depreciation allowance.
Here's how it works: Say it's going to take $30,000 to replace a newly installed roof. A roof has an expected life of, say, 15 years. Each year, the insurance company deducts 1/15th of the cost of the new roof from your coverage. After five years, the actual cash value of your roof is only $10,000, not $15,000.
The financial theory is sound: If your roof blows off in year 14, you were about to replace the roof anyway, so your theoretical loss is not all that high. You'll be OK if you've been saving up for the expected new roof all along. However, many people, shopping for insurance on price alone, get blindsided by the smaller amount the insurance company pays, once depreciation is deducted.
Failure to take advantage of multi-line discounts
Customer acquisition is a huge cost for insurance companies. They have to compensate their agents for hours and hours of phoning and prospecting and paperwork for every new customer. So if they have a chance to upsell new lines of insurance to existing customers, it's worth it to them to provide a discount -- to you. If you are paying for car insurance to one company, basic homeowners insurance to another company, and fire insurance to a third, talk with your agent about consolidating all these coverages under one roof, in exchange for a discount on your premium.

When approached to write about my personal experiences with the Sikh Coalition, I was quick to accept the task. It's pretty simple really: Girl subscribes to the Sikh Coalition e-newsletter. E-newsletter informs Girl of film contest. Girl whimsically enters contest. Sikh Coalition votes Girl as finalist. Girl thinks Sikh Coalition is weird. Girl wins contest on popular vote. Girl thinks greater population is weird. Girl officially becomes Sikh Coalition volunteer. Moral of the story: Don't enter contests organized by the Sikh Coalition, for if you win, you will wind up indebted for life.
Oh Sikh Coalition, how I kid thee…
It has been great getting to know you. In fact, the process has been an outlet: creative, spiritual, and social.
Watch Chandani's winning video:
I have always been proud to be Sikh in spite of questioning it like mad. I grew up in Virginia – not Northern Virginia where Indians have infiltrated the scene in droves but Chesterfield where confederate flags soared proudly from pick-up trucks in my high school parking lot and the opening of a new Walmart highlights the town's chatter. Situationally (and personally) my relationship with Sikhism has been an internal one. With time, however, the need for resolve surrounding the bolstering ambiguity and questions of religion became more evident. This unease coupled with circumstances, placed me in the mix of the North-Eastern tribe of Sikhs. Even after living in Manhattan for 5 years, I revel in the amazement that so many of "us" live in one area. From the glamorous tri-state area Sikhs at the gala that followed the Sikh Arts Film Festival to the vibrant crowd of my generation when filming the Coalition's Bowl-A-Thon fundraiser and each such subsequent encounter, a new perspective of sangat took shape. This only left me with more questions – an articulation of thoughts perhaps for another post.
Watch Chandani's video on the Sikh Coalition's New York City Bowl-a-thon:
My latest and most important project for the Coalition was the Year in Review clip highlighting the organization's campaigns in 2010. I accepted the task quickly dismissing the uncharacteristic cynicism, however slight, that I felt towards the Sikh Coalition as a non-profit organization. How are donations actually spent and is justice an actual output? Perhaps these pointed questions stem from the luxury I've grown up in. That is, the luxury of not having my rights abused. The luxury of not feeling isolated by the way I look. Or the simple luxury of having grown up in our chota Richmond sher di Punjab and in a family that holds education in high regard, that by default, I sincerely believed all Sikhs were established members of society who have reaped the benefits of this supposed land of dreams.
What I learned (besides my need to better voiceover recordings) is that our people are being abused and violated, feel isolated and unsafe…constantly. The time, effort, and money required to bring justice to each case spans over the course of several weeks to several years and if it weren't for organizations like the Sikh Coalition to devote each of these to our community, then who would hear our voices? Would tolerance be a greater obstacle than it is already? Would you personally reach out to a fellow Sikh in need, see justice through or create awareness? I didn't. While it exists to bind our community near and far, the Sikh Coalition more importantly gives each of us a voice. Mine, while perhaps different, has begun to crescendo into existence. To you, Sikh Coalition, I thank you for not only loaning me speakers, but for all the work that you do for our Sikh community.

STEM | News
After participating in a two-week coding and design camp, 16 high school students from across New York recently debuted their own mobile apps as part of a two week summer camp designed to foster coding and design skills.
The STEM Collaboratory Camp, held at New York's Pace University, brought together students from around the city with existing interests in math, science, and technology. The students learned basic skills in coding, robotics, cyber security, design, and more, and then worked in teams with a mentor to design and execute a number of smartphone apps.
In addition to the classes, students in the program participated in workshops and field trips to places like AT&T's cyber security facility (AT&T sponsored the program).
Launched in 2012, the university's STEM Collaboratory encourages STEM teaching and learning among students and teachers through conferences, professional development, and work with regional science and technology professionals.
A list of apps previously created by students through the program -- many of which combine STEM subjects like chemistry and physics with logic and word games -- is available online.

A blockbuster novel, a controversial TV special, and a just-released book on a long-hidden gospel bearing her name: The woman known as Mary Magdalene is again at the center of a swirl of speculation.
Long portrayed in Christian tradition as a repentant prostitute out of whom Jesus cast seven devils, Mary is having her own resurrection in the popular imagination as history is corrected, and new, sometimes explosive, claims are asserted about her relationship to the Master.
This is not, though, just about setting the record straight on an intriguing historical figure. In an era when "God talk" has moved convincingly into the media/entertainment arena, observers say, her story is captivating because it encapsulates major unresolved issues facing Christianity - the role of women in the church, the place of human sexuality, and the yearning for the feminine aspect of the Divine.
All these issues are tantalizingly injected into the bestselling thriller "The Da Vinci Code," which set off the latest debate this summer by positing that Jesus and Mary were married.
"I don't think [author] Dan Brown knew the bull's-eye he was hitting, nor set out to be heretical," says Phyllis Tickle, contributing editor in religion at Publisher's Weekly. "He was aware of the questions boiling in the cultural soup and found them fascinating."
Yet Mr. Brown says that on the basis of documents about secret societies and legends of the Holy Grail that he presents as fact in the novel, he believes they were married. ABC-TV was so taken with the premise that it sent correspondent Elizabeth Vargas globetrotting to explore the evidence, and aired a special Nov. 3. A movie of the novel is now planned by the Hollywood team that made "A Beautiful Mind."
A nonfiction book out this month - "The Gospel of Mary of Magdala," by Karen King of the Harvard Divinity School - strikes a different chord. An eight-page fragment lost for 1,500 years, this gospel, written in the second century, tells of a conversation among Mary, Peter, Andrew, and Levi about a teaching Jesus gave to Mary on the end of the material world and the nature of sin. It highlights Mary's role as an apostle and Peter's resistance to her role.
The gospel "shows us there was a tradition of Mary Magdalene as an important apostle of the church after the resurrection," says Ms. King in an interview. Several other gnostic works (gospels not chosen for the New Testament and termed heretical by early church fathers) similarly support her in that role.
For some, the Bible hints at the same idea in John's Gospel, which depicts Mary as the first to see the risen Jesus and then to proclaim the resurrection to the other disciples. "Since she was commissioned by Jesus to be in essence an apostle to the apostles, she provided the most crucial precedent in the New Testament for women to be teachers, preachers, or evangelists," says Ben Witherington III, professor at Asbury Theological Seminary.
An expert on women in the Bible, Dr. Witherington says that "what happened on Easter morning involving her is really what triggers all of this [debate]." It's now clear that the debate about Mary has gone on from the early church through the Middle Ages right up to today.
Many see her as a central character in the church's marginalization of women over several centuries. The perception of Mary as a prostitute originated in 591, when Pope Gregory the Great falsely identified her with an unnamed sinful woman in the Bible. Almost 1400 years later, in 1969, the church officially corrected its error, though it lingers in public consciousness.
Often-fantastic legends about Mary traveling from Jerusalem to France, pregnant with Jesus' child and giving birth to a line of kings, spread in medieval times and reappeared in books in the 1980s, to be folded into "The Da Vinci Code." The novel depicts Christianity as based on some fabrications. "The greatest story ever told is, in fact, the greatest story ever sold," declares a key character. \Praised by critics as a "brainy thriller" with "intellectual depth," the book reveals its secrets so skillfully that readers are caught up in the debate, wondering just how much of the story might be true.
"America is a Jesus-haunted culture, but at the same time, it's a biblically illiterate culture," Witherington says. "When you have that odd combination, almost anything can pass for knowledge of the historical Jesus."
For the most part, historians and theologians interviewed on the TV special and elsewhere see no historical evidence for the legends - the novel should be seen strictly as fiction, they say. Those scholars who argue that Jesus was married do so largely on the basis that Jewish men of the time were all expected to marry.
King sees something else at play in the debate: The question of Jesus' marriage resonates, she believes, with the complex issues that churchgoers are facing today in discussions about sexuality and the body, including the contentious homosexuality debate. "We have such a medicalized view of the body," she says. "The real issue is how do we think theologically about the body and sexuality."
The "Gospel of Mary," for instance, takes an approach to the issue that is distinct and startling from a traditional perspective. In the teaching Mary receives from Jesus, King writes, people are spiritual beings, sin is not real, the material world will dissolve, and salvation lies in "discovering within oneself the true spiritual nature of humanity and overcoming the deceptive entrapments of the bodily passions."
Over the past 15 years, a stream of books have appeared about Mary Magdalene by feminist theologians, seeking a heritage for women within the church. Meanwhile, new books on the gnostic gospels have captured public interest. Elaine Pagels's recent "Beyond Belief: The Secret Gospel of Thomas" has been a bestseller.
Ms. Tickle sees this interest in Gnosticism and Mary Magdalene - and the willingness of many to look afresh at the Christian tradition - as going beyond the role of women in the church. "This is the pursuit of the divine feminine, a kind of yearning that infects both genders; it wishes to find in the divine parent that wholeness that is the feminine and masculine together," she says. "Scripturally speaking, Mary is our best shot at showing that there was in Jesus the recognition of that."
"The Da Vinci Code" ties that yearning both to Mary and to pagan beliefs of the goddess. "What I would hope is that when the hullabaloo settles, it will cause people to go back and read the biblical narratives for themselves," Witherington says. "A text without context is just a pretext for whatever you want it to be."

What is the Campaign Daily Budget and why is it sometimes exceeded?
Campaign Daily Budget is the approximate amount you're willing to spend on a specific 7Search Campaign each day. Your ads will typically stop showing for that day once your daily budget is met, so a higher budget may allow your ad to be shown more often throughout the day.
Using the Daily Budget feature is NOT an exact stopping mechanism. It is based on perimeters,
EXAMPLE: You set your daily budget to $5.00 and your campaign has spent $4.75. If your bids are higher than $0.75 you will go over budget.
Also, because 7search.com has over 1000 active Affiliates, it is possible that multiple Affiliates will display your ads causing you daily budget to exceed.
We recommend that you maintain enough funds in your account so your exceeding of your budgets does not cause your account to go into a negative balance.

The Intel MCS-51 (commonly referred to as 8051) is a Harvard architecture, CISC instruction set, single chip microcontroller (µC) series which was developed by Intel in 1980 for use in embedded systems.[1] Intel's original versions were popular in the 1980s and early 1990s and enhanced binary compatible derivatives remain popular today.
Intel's original MCS-51 family was developed using NMOS technology, but later versions, identified by a letter C in their name (e.g., 80C51) used CMOS technology and consume less power than their NMOS predecessors. This made them more suitable for battery-powered devices.
The family was continued in 1996 with the enhanced 8-bit MCS-151 and the 8/16/32-bit MCS-251 family of binary compatible microcontrollers.[2] While Intel no longer manufactures the MCS-51, MCS-151 and MCS-251 family, enhanced binary compatible derivatives made by numerous vendors remain popular today. Some derivatives integrate a digital signal processor (DSP). In addition to these physical devices, several companies also offer MCS-51 derivatives as IP cores for use in FPGAs or ASICs designs.
The 8051 architecture provides many functions (CPU, RAM, ROM, I/O, interrupt logic, timer, etc.) in a single package
One feature of the 8051 core is the inclusion of a boolean processing engine which allows bit-level boolean logic operations to be carried out directly and efficiently on select internal registers and select RAM locations. This feature helped cement the 8051's popularity in industrial control applications because it reduced code size by as much as 30%. Another feature is the inclusion of four bank selectable working register sets which greatly reduce the amount of time required to complete an interrupt service routine. With a single instruction the 8051 can switch register banks as opposed to the time consuming task of transferring the critical registers to the stack or designated RAM locations. These registers also allowed the 8051 to quickly perform a context switch.
Once a UART, and a timer if necessary, has been configured, the programmer needs only write a simple interrupt routine to refill the send shift register whenever the last bit is shifted out by the UART and/or empty the full receive shift register (copy the data somewhere else). The main program then performs serial reads and writes simply by reading and writing 8-bit data to stacks.
As of 2013, new derivates are still developed by many major chipmakers, and major compiler suppliers such as IAR Systems, Keil and Altium Tasking continuously release updates.
MCS-51 based microcontrollers typically include one or two UARTs, two or three timers, 128 or 256 bytes of internal data RAM (16 bytes of which are bit-addressable), up to 128 bytes of I/O, 512 bytes to 64 KB of internal program memory, and sometimes a quantity of extended data RAM (ERAM) located in the external data space. The original 8051 core ran at 12 clock cycles per machine cycle, with most instructions executing in one or two machine cycles. With a 12 MHz clock frequency, the 8051 could thus execute 1 million one-cycle instructions per second or 500,000 two-cycle instructions per second. Enhanced 8051 cores are now commonly used which run at six, four, two, or even one clock per machine cycle, and have clock frequencies of up to 100 MHz, and are thus capable of an even greater number of instructions per second. All Silicon Labs, some Dallas and a few Atmel devices have single cycle cores.
8051 variants may include built-in reset timers with brown-out detection, on-chip oscillators, self-programmable Flash ROM program memory, built-in external RAM, extra internal program storage, bootloader code in ROM, EEPROM non-volatile data storage, I²C, SPI, and USB host interfaces, CAN or LIN bus, ZigBee or Bluetooth radio modules, PWM generators, analog comparators, A/D and D/A converters, RTCs, extra counters and timers, in-circuit debugging facilities, more interrupt sources, extra power saving modes, etc.
In many engineering schools the 8051 microcontroller is used in introductory microcontroller courses.
The MCS-51 has four distinct types of memory – internal RAM, special function registers, program memory, and external data memory.
Internal RAM (IRAM) is located from address 0 to address 0xFF. IRAM from 0x00 to 0x7F can be accessed directly. IRAM from 0x80 to 0xFF must be accessed indirectly, using the @R0 or @R1 syntax, with the address to access loaded in R0 or R1. The 128 bits at IRAM locations 0x20–0x2F are bit-addressable.
Special function registers (SFR) are located in the same address space as IRAM, at addresses 0x80 to 0xFF, and are accessed directly using the same instructions as for the lower half of IRAM. They can not be accessed indirectly via @R0 or @R1. 16 of the SFRs are also bit-addressable.
Program memory (PMEM, though less common in usage than IRAM and XRAM) is up to 64 KiB of read-only memory, starting at address 0 in a separate address space. It may be on- or off-chip, depending on the particular model of chip being used. Program memory is read-only, though some variants of the 8051 use on-chip flash memory and provide a method of re-programming the memory in-system or in-application. In addition to code, it is possible to store read-only data in program memory, accessed by the MOVC A, @DPTR instruction. Data is fetched from the address specified in the 16-bit special function register DPTR.
External data memory (XRAM) is a third address space, also starting at address 0. It can also be on- or off-chip; what makes it "external" is that it must be accessed using the MOVX (Move eXternal) instruction. Many variants of the 8051 include the standard 256 bytes of IRAM plus a few KB of XRAM on the chip.
The 8051 is designed as a strict Harvard architecture. The 8051 can only execute code fetched from program memory. The 8051 does not have any instruction to write to program memory. Most 8051 systems respect this distinction, and so are unable to download and directly execute new programs. The strict Harvard architecture has the advantage of making such systems immune to most forms of malware. Some 8051 systems have (or can be modified to have) some "dual-mapped" RAM, making them act somewhat more like Princeton architecture. This (partial) Princeton architecture has the advantage of making it possible for a Forth boot loader running on the 8051 to write new native code to RAM and then execute it, leading to faster incremental and interactive programming cycles than strict Harvard systems.[5][6]
The only register on an 8051 that is not memory-mapped is the 16-bit program counter PC. This specifies the address of the next instruction to execute. Relative branch instructions supply an 8-bit signed offset which is added to the PC.
8 general-purpose registers R0–R7 may be accessed with instructions 1 byte shorter than others. They are mapped to IRAM between 0x00 and 0x1F. Only 8 bytes of that range are used at any given time, determined by the two bank select bits in the PSW.
The following registers are memory-mapped into the special function register space:
256 single bits are directly addressable. These are the 16 IRAM locations from 0x20–0x2F, and the 16 special function registers 0x80, 0x88, 0x90, …, 0xF8. Any bit of these bytes may be directly accessed by a variety of logical operations and conditional branches.
Note that the PSW does not contain the common N (negative) and Z (zero) flags. Instead, because the accumulator is a bit-addressible SFR, it is possible to branch on its most significant bit directly. There is also an instruction to jump if the accumulator is zero or non-zero.
Instructions are all 1 to 3 bytes long, consisting of an initial opcode byte, followed by up to 2 bytes of operands.
There are 16 basic ALU instructions that operate between the accumulator and a second operand. The most significant nibble of the opcode byte specifies the operation, and the least significant nibble specifies one of the following 12 addressing modes:
The operations are as follows. Not all support all addressing modes; the immediate mode in particular is sometimes nonsensical:
Only the ADD, ADDC and SUBB instructions set PSW flags. The INC, DEC, and logical instructions do not. The CJNE instructions modify the C bit only, to the borrow that results from operand1−operand2.
The 64 opcodes x0–x3, plus the few opcodes not used in the above range, are used for other instructions with more limited operand-specification capabilities:
One of the reasons for the 8051's popularity is its range of operations on single bits. Bits are always specified by absolute addresses; there is no register-indirect or indexed addressing. Instructions that operate on single bits are:
Although most instructions require that one operand is the accumulator or an immediate constant, it is possible to perform a MOV directly between two internal RAM locations.
There are various high-level programming language compilers for the 8051. Several C compilers are available for the 8051, most of which allow the programmer to specify where each variable should be stored in its six types of memory, and provide access to 8051 specific hardware features such as the multiple register banks and bit manipulation instructions. There are many commercial C compilers.[7] SDCC is a popular open source C compiler.[8] Other high level languages such as C++, Forth,[5][6][9][10] BASIC, Pascal/Object Pascal, PL/M and Modula-2 are available for the 8051, but they are less widely used than C and assembly.
Because IRAM, XRAM, and PMEM (read only) all have an address 0, C compilers for the 8051 architecture provide compiler-specific pragmas or other extensions to indicate where a particular piece of data should be stored (i.e. constants in PMEM or variables needing fast access in IRAM). Since data could be in one of three memory spaces, a mechanism is usually provided to allow determining to which memory a pointer refers, either by constraining the pointer type to include the memory space, or by storing metadata with the pointer.
The 8051's predecessor, the 8048, was used in the keyboard of the first IBM PC, where it converted keypresses into the serial data stream which is sent to the main unit of the computer. The 8048 and derivatives are still used today for basic model keyboards.
The 8031 was a cut down version of the original Intel 8051 that did not contain any internal program memory (ROM). To use this chip, external ROM had to be added containing the program that the 8031 would fetch and execute. An 8051 chip could be sold as a ROM-less 8031, as the 8051's internal ROM is disabled by the normal state of the EA pin in an 8031-based design. A vendor might sell an 8051 as an 8031 for any number of reasons, such as faulty code in the 8051's ROM, or simply an oversupply of 8051s and undersupply of 8031s.
The 8052 was an enhanced version of the original 8051 that featured 256 bytes of internal RAM instead of 128 bytes, 8 KB of ROM instead of 4 KB, and a third 16-bit timer. The 8032 had these same features except for the internal ROM program memory. Most modern "8051-compatible" microcontrollers include these features.
Intel discontinued its MCS-51 product line in March 2007;[11][12] however, there are plenty of enhanced 8051 products or silicon intellectual property added regularly from other vendors.
The 80C537 and 80C517 are CMOS versions, designed for the automotive industry. Enhancements mostly include new peripheral features and expanded arithmetic instructions. The 80C517 has fail-safe mechanisms, analog signal processing facilities and timer capabilities and 8 KB on-chip program memory. Other features include:
Current vendors of MCS-51 compatible processors include more than 20 independent manufacturers including Atmel, Infineon Technologies (formerly Siemens AG), Maxim Integrated Products (via its Dallas Semiconductor subsidiary), NXP (formerly Philips Semiconductor), Microchip Technology, Nuvoton (formerly Winbond), ST Microelectronics, Silicon Laboratories (formerly Cygnal), Texas Instruments, Ramtron International, Silicon Storage Technology, Cypress Semiconductor and Analog Devices.[13]
ICs or IPs compatible with the MCS-51 have been developed by:
Today, 8051s are still available as discrete parts, but they are mostly used as silicon intellectual property cores. Available in high-level language source code (VHDL or Verilog) or FPGA netlist forms, these cores are typically integrated within embedded systems, in products ranging from USB flash drives to washing machines to complex wireless communication systems on a chip. Designers use 8051 silicon IP cores, because of the smaller size, and lower power, compared to 32 bit processors like ARM M series, MIPS and BA22. Modern 8051 cores are faster than earlier packaged versions. Design improvements have increased 8051 performance while retaining compatibility with the original MCS 51 instruction set. The original Intel 8051 ran at 12 clock cycles per machine cycle, and most instructions executed in one or two machine cycles. A typical maximum clock frequency of 12 MHz meant these old 8051s could execute one million single-cycle instructions, or 500,000 two-cycle instructions, per second. In contrast, enhanced 8051 silicon IP cores now run at one clock cycle per machine cycle, and have clock frequencies of up to 450 MHz. That means an 8051-compatible processor can now execute 450 million instructions per second.
Several variants with an additional 16-bit digital signal processor (DSP) (for example for MP3 or OGG coding/decoding) with up to 675 million instructions per second (MIPS)[14] and integrated USB 2.0 interface[15] or as intellectual property[16] exist.
1996 Intel announced the MCS-151 family, an up to 6 times faster variant.[2] 8051 fully binary and instruction set compatible, but with pipelined CPU, 16 bit internal code bus and 6x speed. The MCS-151 family was also discontinued by Intel, but is widely available in binary compatible and partly enhanced variants.
The 80251 8/16/32-bit microcontroller with 16MB (24-bit) address-space and 6 times faster instruction cycle was introduced by Intel in 1996.[2][17] It can perform as an 8-bit 8051, has 24-bit external address space which is 16-bit wide segmented and 32-bit ALU with mostly 8/16/32-bit wide data instructions (also Boolean processor with special registers/memory) and a large CISC instruction set, 40 8/16/32-bit registers with 8 8-bit registers in 4 times fast switching memory banks (maximum 512 addressable 8-bit special registers).
It features extended instructions[18] - see also the programmer's guide[19] - and later variants with higher performance,[20] also available as intellectual property (IP).[21] It is 3-stage pipelined. The MCS-251 family was also discontinued by Intel, but is widely available in binary compatible and partly enhanced variants from many manufacturers.

Don't you mean "most Americans" don't see wealth distinctions accurately? After all I can assure you *I* see them accurately, and I'm sure you can assure me you see them accurately as well. Even if we see them differently...
[Yes, I'm slightly ironic, but not in 100%, theoretically something like that is possible]
It's income, not wealth, but IMHO it's better for it.

Apparently the lampshade is supposed to be in the shape of the singer's signature weave-hive hairdo. The 'Amy' lamp is available as a floor lamp ($1500), and as a table light ($740). According to Splash:
The European firm behind the product, Delightfull, says of the lamp: 'Inspired by what makes her unique, Amy is a tribute to the great British singer and songwriter. It's an elegant piece, with personality, outlined by detail, surrounded by the black of her hair and of her golden voice.'

Fox News' Unbalanced Coverage Of Economic News
In its recent economic coverage, Fox News consistently downplayed positive developments, while amplifying negative stories as part of an effort to discredit the Obama administration.
Faced with positive economic developments, such as falling jobless claims figures and encouraging unemployment reports, Fox News has consistently dismissed them as either unworthy of highlighting or downright illegitimate. Signs that show the economy is improving were either buried in teasers or used simply as a foil to bring up unrelated metrics, such as rising gas prices and the "real" unemployment rate.
Perhaps the greatest takeaway from Fox News' handling of positive economic news, however, is the now commonplace use of conspiracy theories to deny any signs of an improving economy. Leading up to the 2012 election, hosts and guests repeatedly touted the claim that drops in unemployment were suspicious, suggesting that the Obama administration somehow manipulated data to show numbers in its favor. The network even went so far as to preemptively offer a conspiracy theory prior to the release of the November unemployment rate, indicating that no positive news would be accepted, regardless of its legitimacy.
Negative news, however, was approached remarkably differently. Fox News treated any sign of economic malaise as an opportunity to discredit the efforts of the Obama administration, sometimes delighting in what it meant for his chances of reelection. Regardless of circumstances outside of Obama's control - such as Hurricane Sandy's effect on jobless claims and company scheduled layoffs - Fox News hosts and guests consistently took any negative economic news as an indication of the failure of the administration.
While the network has taken multiple approaches to covering economic news, one theme remains unchanged - Fox News has constructed an alternate reality where positive economic news is bad, and negative economic news is good, in an effort to discredit Obama.

Forbes is up to its old tricks. Once again it celebrates the wealthiest among us with its annual Forbes 400. The minimum entry fee for this exclusive club is a net worth of $1.3 billion. Once upon a time, during the hardly socialist era of Reagan's America, a mere few hundred million would suffice. Any time a leftwing columnist worries about escalating wealth, he or she is accused either of envy or of failing to recognize the benefits everyone derives from the accomplishments of the wealthy elite. There are, however, sound reasons to worry about the causes and consequences of gaping wealth disparities.
When some populists, socialists, and '60s radicals bemoaned what they regarded even then as unacceptable wealth disparities, they met a familiar rejoinder: Even if a socialist government were to confiscate a large portion of these fortunes for redistribution to the poorest third of the population, these sums would not dramatically enhance the circumstances of the poor. An argument of this sort has less power today.
Journalist Holly Sklar points out that the Forbes 400 now has a combined net worth of at least $1.54 trillion, more than a tenth of the nation's Gross National Product. Were even a third of that (circa $500 billion) redistributed to the poorest third of our population in health care, education, public transit services or even reductions in Social Security taxes, etc. it would make an immense positive difference in their lives.
No one, even on the left, is proposing such a vast transfer. Nonetheless, arguments that most of the rest of us have benefited from the gains made at the top are problematic. Edward Wolff of New York University points out that between 1983 and 2004, the average wealth of the top 1 percent of households grew by 78 percent, while the bottom 40 percent lost 59 percent. The benefits of wealth accumulation have failed to trickle down.
One consequence of the economic distress of those at the bottom is that if the basic social services on which equality of opportunity is based are to be funded adequately, sources other than taxing poor and working-class income must be found. And borrowing against future generations has its limits.
Liberal Democrats advocate repeal of Bush-era tax cuts, which have disproportionately benefited the wealthy. Since our total tax structure, including Social Security taxes and state and local income and sales tax, has become much less progressive over time, such a change is long overdue.
Though polls suggest American citizens would support such reforms now, many working-class Americans still shrug off or even resist any tax increase. They assume that they too will become rich, either by working hard or developing a new product or just through luck. Call it Powerball politics.
Some might change their minds if commentators, even those on the left, did more to remind citizens that many of today's wealthiest did not, as the Smith Barney ad used to say, "Make money the old fashioned way, they earned it." Behind many of today's great fortunes lie abuses of power and privilege by those already well placed. In addition, not only have these actions failed to bring the poor and working class along, they have contributed to their problems.
Sklar points out that much of today's great wealth comes from Wall Street speculation. The current difficulties in the subprime mortgage market are symptomatic of larger pathologies. Guardian (London) business writer Will Hutton points out: "lending 100 percent mortgages to borrowers with no income, employment or assets, packaging up the resulting debt and selling it to banks around the globe while taking a handsome fee on every transaction - can be launched with impunity."
Conflicts of interest and abuse of insider information taint the entire system. The firms issuing the new securities pay the purportedly impartial rating agencies, Moody's and Standard and Poor. The Bush administration touts the freedom to create these new exotic financial instruments. Nonetheless, when the whole system eventually starts to implode, the same insiders who once demanded freedom from government beg the Federal Reserve to opens the discount window to keep big financial houses from failing.
Federal bailouts, either through Fed interest rate cuts or direct subsidies, have allowed the big investment banks to escape the emerging markets and long-term capital management debacles of the '90s only to plunge the U.S. economy into a tech stock bubble and now a housing bubble. The biggest financial players not only escape but also often prosper. Many manipulated borrowers, investors who don't manage or own elite firms, or simply aren't privy to inside information lose their houses and other assets. High tech and housing markets are overbuilt and then subject to equally extreme retrenchment.
The Fed should take the risk of economic collapse seriously, but the underlying sources of both our vast inequalities and our dangerous market volatility need attention from federal regulators. Otherwise, taxpayers and ordinary citizens not only won't become rich. They are going to continually bear the brunt of saving financial Goliaths from the messes they create.

"Kevin Spencer offers a genuinely unique way to reach students, and particularly students at risk. As a teacher educator, I could see that my students' eyes were opened to new possibilities in teaching. We are so often bound to what we have seen in teaching, even those of us who consider ourselves to be creative, that our imaginations become limited. I appreciate and admire the way that Kevin can move fluidly between the world of academia and the world of wonder in a way that can reach incredibly diverse populations."

earMUSIC is proud to announce the comeback of UK's Chrome Molly.
The new album "Gunpowder Diplomacy" is their first album in 22 years, to celebrate the 30th anniversary from the band's first release.
The album will be released on January 25th, 2012.
Formed in late 1982, Chrome Molly made a bid for stardom in the mid to late 1980's (being hailed as "the next Def Leppard" in the music press), releasing four albums, opening for Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne amongst many others, playing the legendary Marquee Club over 20 times and headlining CBGB's in New York. Together with Iron Maiden, Saxon and Blitzkrieg, the band was part of the "New Wave of British Heavy Metal".
Despite drifting apart in the early 90's, the band never officially split and began to play together regularly since the mid 90's in various projects, although no attempt to tour or record was made. The re-release of their critically acclaimed debut album "You Can't Have It All…" and its follow-up "Stick It Out" (both re-released last year) brought the band back to the public eye and motivated the band to record and release new music.
With the contribution of Little Angels, Fastway, Dio's Disciples´ singer/producer Toby Jepson, Chrome Molly have produced a new album that marks their finest hour. Bringing a fresh and heavy sound to their hook and riff-laden songs, Jepson has brought the Mollies back with a vengeance. "Gunpowder Diplomacy" features 11 news tracks featuring original members Steve Hawkins (vocals), John Antcliffe (Guitars), Nic Wastell (Bass) and new boy (since 1990) Greg Ellis (drums).
Chrome Molly mark 30 years of honest, exciting and true to the roots heavy metal and guess what, they have not mellowed with age.

Homeopathic medicines are often effective in treating the acute symptoms of coughs, though professional constitutional care is usually necessary to achieve a deeper level of cure of chronic respiratory problems.
: These children wake from sleep with a dry, hoarse, croupy cough, which tends to be worse at night and after midnight. They are apt to develop a cold or cough during dry cold weather. Along with their dry cough, they will have a dry mouth and shortness of breath. They are usually very thirsty. The cough is worse from being cold, drinking cold water, from tobacco smoke, lying on either side, and at night, especially after midnight. This remedy is very commonly given for the initial stages of croup, bronchitis, pleurisy, and pneumonia. These children are often restless and anxious.
Antimonium tart: A loud rattling cough with an inability to expectorate mucus is characteristic of this medicine. Sometimes precipitated after being angered or annoyed, the respiratory difficulties cause these children to feel drowsy, weak, and feeble. Their symptoms are usually worse at 4 a.m. Their difficulty in breathing may cause them to sit up rather than lie down. Concurrent with these breathing difficulties are anxiousness, restlessness, and irritability. They feel chilly but are averse to stuffy warm rooms. They instead desire cool rooms and open windows. This remedy is rarely given at the beginning of an illness.
Belladonna: When cough symptoms appear suddenly and the child has a dry cough with laryngitis, consider this remedy. These children are restless, drowsy, and have wild dreams. Their symptoms are worse at night.
BRYONIA: When a common cold starts with a nasal discharge and then moves down into the chest, Bryonia is often given, especially when the cough is dry and worse by motion or breathing in. It is painful to move and to inspire, so these children tend to hold their chest as they breathe in order to limit the motion of the chest. The cough is also aggravated by warm rooms and during or after eating. These children tend to be sensitive to drafts and are always catching cold. They may feel some tickling in the larynx which irritates the cough. Sometimes nausea and vomiting or a headache accompany the cough.
Drosera: Bouts of continuous, dry, barking coughing are characteristic of children who need this remedy. They may experience a spasmodic tickling cough that is accompanied by choking, cold sweats, and vomiting. Their cough is aggravated by lying down and after midnight, especially at 2 a.m. The cough is irritated by talking, eating, or drinking cold fluids. These children are usually seen holding onto the chest for support during the coughing spells. They become very chilly and tend to perspire profusely, especially at night. They may also develop a deep hoarse voice.
Ferrum phos: Children who will benefit from this remedy do not get symptoms that arise suddenly, nor are the symptoms very intense. These children may, however, be anemic and become ill after being exposed to cold. The cough becomes worse from cold air, in early morning, and after eating. It is a dry hacking cough, and the expectoration may have some blood in it. The children may experience a stitching pain on inspiration and during a cough. They usually have a poor appetite with an aversion to meat and milk and a desire for sour foods. Hoarseness may accompany the cough.
