Cheese-Stuffed Lentil Cottage Pie Croquettes - Wing It, Don't Fling It!
There wasn't much cottage pie left, but after I added a bit of milk and breadcrumbs it expanded enough to make four large croquettes.
To transform the cottage pie into croquettes, all I did was transfer the pie leftovers into a bowl, added a couple of tablespoons of almond milk and gently mashed it in with a fork. Then I added some extra seasonings (salt, black pepper, bit of onion powder) and a handful of breadcrumbs, just enough to form a dough that wasn't sticky but also not too dry. Then I took about a quarter of the dough and slightly flattened it in my hand, placed a piece of cheese (Daiya Jack Style Wedge) right in the middle of the flattened dough, and wrapped the dough around the cheese until it was completely covered. I did this three more times until all the dough was gone. To bread them, I first dipped the croquettes in tomato sauce, and then rolled them in seasoned breadcrumbs. I pan fried them in a bit of olive oil over medium heat, turning them every few minutes to brown all sides of the croquettes.
They were so tasty, and I loved the gooey cheese that was melted in the center! Next time I make cheese-stuffed croquettes I will use coconut milk cheddar, but I've been out of agar flakes for a couple of weeks and that stuff is expensive. I'm not made of money here!
Buddy the Blue Jay wants to know: have you recycled any leftovers lately? Also, I think he would love to have a little sweater or a scarf.

Those look SO tasty, River! I've been yearning cottage pie recently, after someone brought a delicious one to the Scottish Vegans potluck here last week. Now I've got two reasons to make it, and I will! Thanks for the inspiration!ReplyDelete
You win the leftover transformation award. Now you must send the entry to me so I can confirm that it tastes as good as it looks. :)ReplyDelete
And where has Penny been hiding herself all this time?
These look amazing! I need to make some lentil cottage pie stat. I don't think I ever would have thought to transform it into this.ReplyDeleteReplies
You do need to make some lentil cottage pie stat! And invite me for dinner! I promise not to harass your kittehs too much... OK, that was a lie :DDelete
Hee hee, the kitties would love to be harassed... Well, Sahara would. Dim Sim would be hiding behind the curtains in my room. ;)Delete
Then Sahara would have to receive a double harassing from me. Poor kitteh! :)Delete

Your guide to 4th of July TV marathons
The weekend of July 4th is a time for doing American things: grilling, watching fireworks, ignoring zoning restrictions and setting off your own fireworks. But shenanigans are tiring, you know? The sun will give you a sunburn. The grill will make your clothes smell like smoke. We at EW much prefer to test our endurance in other ways, mostly by watching TV.
There's a whole set of marathons on for the weekend, some highly publicized (can you make it through three straight days of The Walking Dead?), some obscure and ready for love (a marathon of the animated Transformers series, which is surely better than seeing the new movie in theaters). We've compiled a list from Friday through Sunday below. Trust us, this is way better than a weekend at the beach.

Good news, everyone!

Jupiter, Io, Ganymede, Callisto, Europa and Uranus from Santiago de Compostela
This may not look like much, but it took a fair few shots to capture it. Jupiter at the moment is one of the brightest objects in the sky, rising around sunset and shining through the night, it's currently the closest it's been to us for almost 50 years. I've caught Jupiter with the four major moons before, but this shot was a bit special. When I enhanced the image, a bright green spot jumped out. I knew what it was having seen on Stellarium a few days earlier what else was in the sky, but I double checked to make sure that I'd really captured the very faint image of Uranus around 2 billion kilometers away from us, just to the top left of the Jovian system. Here's the result (my photo on the right) as compared with Stellarium (on the left):
Here's another image from the same set of shots, but at a different setting on the camera, such that I could get the moons in better resolution. Here's Callisto, Europa, Io, Jupiter and Ganymede

A rarely-sighted stream has re-emerged for the second time in two years – and folklore suggests this is a very bad omen.
The Bourne Gutter, a tributary of the River Bulbourne, has been spotted trickling across the fields of the Bourne Valley, near the McDonald's on the A41.
The stream is known to some who live nearby as 'woe water' because its appearance is believed to come before a major tragedy or war.
It also appeared in March last year, but before that the last time it flowed at its full three-mile length was between November 2000 and May 2001.
Just a few months later the Twin Towers disaster killed 2,996 people and wounded more than 6,000.
The catastrophe led to America's War on Terror and the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq by multiple countries.
The Bourne Gutter is presently flowing as an after-effect of the very heavy rainfall experienced nationwide.
Freelance Gazette photographer David Satchel has been capturing images of Dacorum for several decades, and said the Bourne Gutter hardly ever appears.
He said: "The Bourne Gutter doesn't have a riverbed as such and flows over the grass, resembling a lawn after someone has emptied a paddling pool over it."
He said the stream has been known to appear during dry spells when water authorities are imposing hosepipe bans.
The Hertfordshire Natural History Society kept in-depth records of the flow of the stream for 40 years from the late 1800s.
They recorded that it flowed for two or three miles in 1879, 1883, 1897 and 1904 – but its length has generally been much shorter in recent decades.
Mr Satchel has traced and photographed the source of the stream, where it comes bubbling out of the ground near Whelpley Hill, not far from Bovingdon.

- About Us
- Troposcatter Overview
- Featured Products
- Legacy Modem Status
Who We Are
Founded in 1967 as Comtech Laboratories, Comtech Systems, Inc. has spent over 50 years designing and implementing cutting-edge solutions to the toughest communications challenges worldwide. In addition to the US military, our customers include foreign governments and militaries across the globe. Additionally, we provide remote communication solutions to the commercial sector, including some of the world's largest energy companies, such as Royal Dutch Shell, Petronas, and PEMEX.
Troposcatter Overview
Advanced Troposcatter Systems provide high capacity, low-latency data links for over-the-horizon distances, without the need to rely on satellites or multiple line-of-sight repeaters. They also provide a level of resistance to intercept or detection that exceeds most line-of-sight microwave and satellite communications. These systems have little in common with the troposcatter (tropo) equipment developed for long-haul communications from the 1950s to the 1980s, much like computers today bear little resemblance to the computers of that era. The common element is that all troposcatter systems function by using the non-homogenous elements present in the lowest level of the atmosphere— such as water vapor, dust, and atmospheric variations— to scatter a small portion of the transmitted energy forward in a predictable manner.
A troposcatter system is a point-to-point link that requires a terminal on each end, with each terminal both transmitting and receiving. Terminals can range in size from a portable transit case system, to a vehicle-mounted system or large fixed installation. The antenna(s) at each terminal are aimed at a fixed point in the troposphere, generally slightly above the horizon. The region where the antenna beams intersect is known as the "Common Volume.". The Common Volume is where this predictable scattering phenomena occurs.
Due to the nature of troposcatter propagation, only a tiny portion of the energy is scattered forward in a usable manner. The vast majority of energy passes on into space and is lost, and a small amount of non-useable scatter energy is lost as it disperses in other directions. A troposcatter system uses the remaining energy to create a stable and secure data link. For a full overview of Troposcatter technology, click here.
Comtech's Modular Transportable Transmission System [MTTS] is the most flexible mobile troposcatter terminal available. The main elements of the MTTS are the Modem Converter Case, which contains the CS67500 Digital Troposcatter Modem and the CS4400 Frequency Converter System, and the RF Case, which houses the TRP500-4450 Solid State Power Amplifier. When paired with a C-Band troposcatter antenna, the system provides a complete troposcatter communications solution in a rapidly deployable package.
The modular design allows users to take a building block approach to deployment, only utilizing the cases needed for a specific mission objective, with the ability to increase the power of the systems as those requirements change. The MC Case (paired with a C-Band antenna) can function as a stand-alone line of sight transmission system for short range and unobstructed links. The addition of a single RF case enables dual diversity troposcatter and diffraction links, for medium range and obstructed communications, and a second RF Case (with antenna) provides Quad Diversity troposcatter communications for maximum range.
The portable transit case design allows for more flexible deployment options than traditional trailer or vehicle based troposcatter systems. The MTTS cases can be carried to the top of a building or over terrain that is inaccessible by vehicles in order to optimize transmission paths, as well as be transported inside a helicopter or SUV if required.
- Data Rates up to 50 Mbps
- Line of Sight to 150km+ range (terrain dependent)
- Modular transit case design for maximum flexibility
- Can utilize any C-Band antenna with a troposcatter feed
- Optional Tri-mode configuration enables LOS, Tropo, and VSAT communications with one common set of equipment

Support of Legacy Comtech Modems, including the TM-20
Having received questions relative to the availability and support of the Comtech Digital High capacity troposcatter modem family including the TM-20 modem, Comtech is supplying the following clarification.
Comtech Systems is the world leader in troposcatter systems and has been for the past 50 years, delivering more high capacity systems (8 Mbps and greater) than any other company in the history of troposcatter. A key Comtech Systems differentiator is that we also lead in the research and development of new troposcatter technology and techniques.
As a systems solution provider with a large installed base and whose core business is troposcatter, Comtech Systems has and continues to invest in future troposcatter technology development and in our product support services. This assures our customers that they will always have state-of-the-art equipment and that Comtech Systems will support our systems for the life of their applications.
Comtech Systems currently offers and supports only the S-575, and CS6700 series modems. This includes the S-575 (8Mb/s), the advanced CS67200 and CS67500, and the US Military CS 6716 family of 22 MB/s modems which are the most advanced modems in the market today. The US military has purchased over 350 of the Comtech 6700 series modems to date and has effectively standardized on the CS6700 modem family.
The TM-20 modem* was taken out of production in 2009, after extensive evaluations by Comtech and evaluation by the US Military. The superior performance of the Comtech designed modems already in use, and the very limited sales and market acceptance of the TM-20 made the decision to cease production clear.
We understand that the Comtech TM-20 modem is still being offered in some markets as a current supportable modem. As a service to our current and potential troposcatter customers, Comtech wishes to clearly state its position on the TM-20.
- The TM-20 is carried as an "obsolete" product and has been out of production since 2009. Comtech will not go back into production of this modem.
- There is no Comtech support for warranty or repair service or spare parts for this modem.
- The only support for this modem may come from inventories of these old modems manufactured between 2005 -2009 that may still be available from others. Some components used in the TM-20 are no longer available.
Comtech values its name and reputation and wants to make sure that customers understand Comtech's position on its modem family.
*Comtech acquired all ownership rights to the TM-20 when it purchased Radyne Corporation (a satellite equipment manufacturer).

ABSABS plastic is an easily machined, tough, low cost rigid thermoplastic plastic with high impact strength, ideal for turning, drilling, milling, sawing, die-cutting, and shearing. ABS plastics provide a balanced combination of mechanical toughness, wide temperature range, good dimensional stability, chemical resistance, electrical insulating properties, and ease of fabrication. ABS applications are extremely broad, falling between commodity plastics and the engineering resins.
AcetalAcetal is a tough, stable engineering thermoplastic with a high modulus of elasticity, high strength, good rigidity, dimensional stability, resistance to moisture, solvents and other chemicals. It performs significantly better than copolymers in toughness at extreme temperatures, fatigue endurance, and elongation at yield. Common applications include precision gears, bearings with close tolerances, electrical engineering insulators, snap fit assemblies, and parts operating in a hot water environment.
AcrylicAcrylics have outstanding resistance to long-term exposure to sunlight and weathering. It has excellent optical properties and is more resistant to impact than glass. In addition, acrylic has low water absorption, good electrical resistivity, and fair tensile strength. Applications are infinite, including art installations, outdoor signs, glazing, aircraft canopies, skylights, auto tail-lights, dials, buttons, lighting applications, knobs, and machine covers.
HDPEHPDE, or High Density Polyethylene, is a very light and extremely tough, chemically resistant plastic and is one of the most commonly used plastics in the United States. It does not absorb water and has good sliding abrasion resistance in addition to being self-lubricating. High density polyethylene lends itself particularly well to blow molding, e.g. for bottles, cutting boards, dipping baskets, dippers, trays and containers.
PVCPolyvinyl chloride, or PVC for short, is one of the world's most widely used plastics for its extreme versatility. Most PVC produced goes into building and construction applications such pipe, siding, and window profiles. PVC has a great resistance to oils and a low permeability to gases. Sheets can be welded to produce tanks, trays and troughs. Packaging is another major market for PVC plastic. Rigid grades are blown into bottles and made into sheet for thermoforming boxes and blister packs. Flexible compounds are made into food wrap. Other markets for PVC plastics include wire and cable coating, flooring, garden hose, and toys.
UHMWUHMW-PE (also shortened to UHMW), stands for Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene. It's this extremely high molecular weight that gives UHMW-PE an unsurpassed combination of slickness, toughness and chemical resistance. It's a common plastic encountered every day in the form of food containers, milk containers, and many home appliances. Because of its low coefficient of friction, UHMW-PE is self-lubricating; it replaces unwanted grease and oil in many applications such as bearings and conveyors. UHMW-PE has a "No Break" Impact Strength rating, meaning it will pierce though or be cut before breakage occurs. UHMW-PE can be sawed, milled, turned, planed, drilled or punched.
PTFEPTFE, or Polytetrafluoroethylene, is a fluoropolymer that is resistant to heat and chemicals. It has an extremely low coefficient of friction, and is used as a coating on cookware, gaskets, seals, and hoses. It is unaffected by virtually all acids and caustics, functioning in environments up to 500°F, and as low as -350°F. Virgin PTFE is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in the food, beverage, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. It is also of great use in laboratory applications because contaminants do not adhere to the surface.

Xfce 4.8
Update Xfce to the upstream 4.8 release with many new improvements and features.
- Names: Kevin Fenzi, Christoph Wickert
- email: email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.com
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 15
- Last updated: 2010-11-03
- Percentage of completion: 10%
Detailed Description
The Xfce project has been working on a new version, 4.8 for quite a while now.
The Xfce 4.8 schedule is currently estimated to have a release on 2011-01-16.
Benefit to Fedora
Xfce 4.8 has a number of improvements and new features. A few of the more notable ones:
- Xfce menu will support menu merging.
- (Hopefully) bring back the graphical menu editor known from Xfce 4.4
- Thunar is ported from thunar-vfs to gvfs
- PolicyKit support in xfce4-session
- Multilib enhancements for xfce4-panel plugins.
Existing packages will need to be updated to 4.8 in rawhide.
All needed packages are already reviewed and in rawhide, but will need to be updated to the new 4.8 versions.
Two packages will need to be Obsoleted and blocked from Fedora 14:
- libxfce4menu (replaecd by garcon)
- libxfcegui4 (replaced by libxfce4ui)
At least the following will need to be updated:
- libxfce4ui
- xfce4-settings
- exo
- libxfce4util
- xfce-utils
- xfce4-appfinder
- xfce4-panel
- xfce4-session
How To Test
New installs:
- install rawhide/Fedora 15 on any machine.
- yum install @xfce-desktop
- confirm gdm offers Xfce4 as a session type
- confirm you can select this session and login
- confirm settings changes can be made and saved, and are found after a logout/login cycle.
- confirm day to day desktop functions are working.
- confirm all settings dialogs come up and work.
(More specifics can be added when final changelogs are available)
- confirm yum groupupdate 'XFCE' works and all packages are properly updated/obsoleted.
- confirm the updated desktop works fine.
User Experience
Contingency Plan
Revert to older Xfce 4.6 version. This may require a Epoch and rebuilding packages and plugins. Or if the dist-f14-xfce tag has not yet been merged back into rawhide, only reverts in cvs will be required.
Release Notes
- Xfce has been updated to version 4.8. This version includes many enhancements and bug fixes. See the tour at http://www.xfce.org/about/tour for more information.

Dusting off a perfect game
It's not essential that I actually watch a Yankee game when Ken is home on an off-day since he treats me to a play-by-play from his favorite perch in the TV room. As he's "doing his homework" (how's that for an explanation why a husband needs to watch so much baseball?) Ken calls out sporadically, "3-nothing Yankees!" … or … "CC Sabathia has a no-hitter going!" … or whatever pinstripe action is unfolding on the screen. (He gets stirred up when he's watching his guys.)
"What inning?" I called out about that particular game, knowing no player can count their baseball chicks before they hatch.
Now, call me oblivious, but I don't always listen 100% to the baseball lingo floating around our house (being that it's a daily occurrence), so I'm thinking Ken meant CC was pitching a perfect game.
Later, when Ken's final game report echoed from the TV room that Sabathia gave up a hit in the eighth inning, I commented something about a perfect game.
That's when Ken quizzed me. "Beauty," (he calls me Beauty), "Do you know the difference between a no-hitter and a perfect game?"
Although I could describe a perfect game as when batters are up 1-2-3 and out 1-2-3, I failed the quiz by improperly describing a no-hitter (and how long have I been a baseball wife?). Well, I knew what I meant.
And although I didn't describe it correctly, at least I know what a perfect game most definitely looks like, since I've been dusting a framed scorecard autographed by Dennis Martinez that has been on display in Ken's office for 19 years. It's a keeper.
Okay, that's a white lie. I haven't been dusting the scorecard for 19 years because, well, I don't actually dust.
Martinez's perfect game July 28, 1991 is one of two that Ken has had the privilege of calling as an announcer — one in the National League and one in the American. That's some kind of baseball statistic right there, folks, since only 18 pitchers total have tossed perfect games in MLB history. The earliest two were recorded in 1880 and not another happened until 1964!
That perfect game between Montreal (2) and Los Angeles (0) was made sweeter for my husband to witness — and call — since Dennis is a former Orioles teammate and was a Montreal Expo starting pitcher during Ken's run at The Sports Network in Canada.
Before the YES Network evolved and Ken was a Yankees announcer on the Madison Square Garden Network, David Wells was the second pitcher to decorate Ken's office with a perfect scorecard May 17, 1998 (New York 4, Minnesota 0).
Super! Another dust collector … uh, I mean … keeper.
1 Comment
Very interesting piece. I had no idea so much time elapsed between perfect games 1 and 2. It's great that Ken got to broadcast 2 of them. Also it shows how special Don Larson's perfect World Series game was.

March Madness: Tax tips for gamblers
Did you win last year's NCAA hoops pool (and the winner-take-all loot) after picking the Blue Devils to go all the way?
Technically, you should report those winnings on your tax return this year.
"The IRS requirement is that you report everything you win," said Kim Lothringer, an Aurora-based master tax advisor with H&R Block.
Most people assume that if they don't receive a W-2G form from a casino or other gambling establishment, the winnings are tax free. But that's not the case.
Still, Lothringer admits that she has never prepared a return for someone who actually claimed winnings from a March Madness pool.
"I have never seen one come through the office and I've been doing taxes nine years," she said.

Day's Best: The plain-talking governor of NJ rips fellow Republicans
You don't have to love Chris Christie, the calls-it-as-he-sees-it Republican governor of New Jersey. And we certainly do have our policy disagreements with him.
But it strikes us that his willingness to speak his mind and blast members of his own party over their handling of Hurricane Sandy relief is worthy of respect.
The inimitable Christie held a 40-minute news conference Wednesday to comment on the action — and inaction — of federal lawmakers, taking no prisoners along the way.
"Americans are tired of the palace intrigue and political partisanship of this Congress, which places one-upsmanship ahead of the lives of the citizens who sent these people to Washington DC in the first place," Christie said.
He was angry about the House's failure to take up a compensation package for victims of the storm that ravaged New Jersey and other northeastern states. But he broadened his criticism to take on House Republicans in general and House Speaker John Boehner specifically.
After the rant, Boehner scheduled a vote on the aid package for Friday.

Storm Season Preparation
Preparing for storms and flooding
The first thing you should do to get ready for storm season is assess whether your property might flood. Talk to your neighbors and learn about the history of flooding or landslides where you live.
If you think you might experience flooding, you can take several actions to get ready before seasonal storms arrive. Some of the actions on this page require permits that could take up to a year, and the help of hired professionals.
Prepare for emergencies
- Follow the 3 days/3 ways approach – Build a kit. Make a plan. Stay informed.
- Know where your shutoffs are. If flooding occurs, you'll need to know how to shut off electricity, gas and water at main switches and valves.
- You can also attend a class in Seattle to get official training.
Elevate large items
Elevate your furnace, water heater, washer/dryer, and electric panel if they are susceptible to flooding. Use masonry blocks, concrete, or pressure-treated lumber so that they are at least 12" above the projected flood level.
Retrofit your house
If your house might flood, consider some retrofits that will improve its ability to withstand water. Most of these changes require time and money. Use a search engine to look up "drainage" for the guidance of drainage professionals.
Highlights listed below are from FEMA's Homeowner's Guide to Retrofitting: Six Ways to Protect Your House from Flooding.
- Seal walls in basements with waterproof coatings or supplemental layers of masonry or concrete to avoid seepage.
- If you have floors below street level (grade), look into installing a sump pump, which is usually installed in the basement to remove water and prevent water from entering living spaces.
- Install watertight shields to doors, windows, and other openings.
- Strengthen your walls so that they can withstand the pressures of flood waters and the impacts of flood-borne debris.
Contact the Seattle Department of Planning and Development regarding requirements for discharging water from your basement, permits, and solutions for side sewer problems. Learn more about side sewers.
Consider getting flood insurance
- Flood Insurance, How It Works – National Flood insurance Program.
- Check your homeowners' insurance agreement for flood coverage. Flood insurance protects you from the financial damages caused by flooding. Learn more about obtaining flood insurance.
- Everyone is eligible for flood insurance.
Redirect where flood waters flow
- Direct flows from downspouts at least 5 feet away from your house foundation, without sending flows to adjacent properties. Never discharge water over the edge of a steep hill. Coordinate with the Seattle Department of Planning and Development for approved points to discharge water.
- Create "flow paths" in your yard where water can flow during a storm without damaging your neighbors' properties or valuable gardens.
- Consider using sandbags to redirect flows.

Padres schedule FanFest on Feb. 9 at Petco Park
The daylong event is free and open to the public. Details surrounding Padres FanFest will be released before the event.
Last year, the Padres had nearly 18,000 attend the one-day event with more than 20 players attending, along with manager Bud Black.
Third baseman Chase Headley presided over a hitting clinic while Clayton Richard did the same for a pitching clinic on the field.
One change that occurred last year was moving the Padres Garage Sale to the actual field itself, where merchandise -- such as autographed jerseys, game-used equipment and clubhouse memorabilia -- was sold, raising more than $80,000 to benefit the Padres Foundation.
The team also announced that it will hold its annual awards dinner on Feb. 8 at the San Diego Hall of Champions in Balboa Park, where it was previously held before moving to Petco Park in 2012.
The event -- which will include a reception and dinner, Padres players, coaches, broadcasters and members of the leadership team -- will help kick off the 2013 season and honor the Padres' 2012 Major League and Minor League award winners.
Individual tickets and tables for the dinner are on sale now, with all proceeds benefiting the San Diego Hall of Champions' Jr. Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) program in San Diego.
For information, or to purchase tickets, please contact the Padres community relations department via email at [email protected] or by phone at 619-795-5274.

What Keeps the Summit League in Sioux Falls?
Every year since 2009, the Sioux Falls Arena has been the site of the Summit League men and women's basketball championships. So, why does the league keep coming back to Sioux Falls?
"I think it's the way we run the men and women's tournaments combined. It creates a whole different atmosphere; we have a host hotel, where all the teams are in that hotel. The Arena makes it unique because you go in there, and it's loud. Attendance has been great. More and more fans are coming, and they now picked up not only on their home team, but are coming out to watch both Indiana schools compete against each other. I think that's what has really grown this tournament," says Summit League commissioner Tom Douple.
The league seems to break attendance records every March, too. In the second men's quarterfinal in 2014, 6,647 fans (a new tournament-record) watched South Dakota play Denver and South Dakota State play Western Illinois,
Overall, 4,125 fans saw the South Dakota women cut down the nets for the first time, and 16,472 total fans came out to support the women's tournament over four days. On the men's side, 4,263 fans saw North Dakota State advance to the NCAA tournament, while drawing 20,832 total fans. A total of 37,304 fans came to watch the Summit League tournament, which is third-best all-time.
The future keeps getting brighter, and the league is excited to play in the Premier Center.
"We can't wait. The amenities that the new arena is going to offer for our fans, student-athletes, staff, workers, and media is going to take us to a whole another level. I guarantee we are going to set some records next year in the new arena (laughs)," adds Douple.
Looking back, leaving the Arena will be difficult, as the league has enjoyed some pretty cool moments in the barn-like building. The South Dakota State women won five Summit League titles in their first five years, and never lost a game before losing to South Dakota this year. The USD women won their first title in 2014. The SDSU men won two straight titles behind Nate Wolters. NDSU's Ben Woodside hit a memorable shot in 2009.
"Somehow or another, just because the way it's designed with the roof, that place gets loud. It's really unique when there is an exciting play or basket. The noise level bounces off those walls, and creates a great atmosphere," tells Douple.
Over the years, the Arena has seemed like a home game for SDSU, USD, or NDSU, but all in all, the tournament has become a unique experience for a basketball-savvy town in South Dakota.
"I think it's the level of play of men and women's basketball. Our student-athletes have done a great job of raising the bar and it's just exciting basketball to watch. Our very knowledgable fans in the Sioux Falls area have realized that, and they like coming to see good basketball," tells Douple.
Sioux Falls has embraced the Summit League, and loves the chance to send teams dancing to the NCAA tournament.
"The support you get from the community. The corporate support, the fan support, the Arena staff is outstanding to work with, the volunteers and media coverage has been outstanding from television to print to radio, and of course, we have had some exciting basketball games," shares Douple.
It helps the tournament receives a little national attention on the college basketball landscape, too.
"This year, being as highly-ranked in men and women's basketball, it's a pretty good level. Getting every game on national television exposes our brand to a lot of folks. Obviously, with the USA Today article, it's become a national tournament, and it's no longer just a local tournament. That's what the beauty of it is," says Douple.
USA Today published an article before last week's tournament showcasing the league's tournament as one of March's best-kept secrets. Locally, the tournament was broadcast live on Midco Sports Net, and nationally, the women's final was on ESPNU, while the men's final was ESPN2.
In 2015, the Summit League men and women's basketball championships will move down the road from the Arena to the Denny Sanford Premier Center, a state-of-the-art facility that will seat 12,000 basketball fans.

The Point Cloud Library (or PCL) is a large scale, open project [1] for 2D/3D image and point cloud processing. The PCL framework contains numerous state-of-the art algorithms including filtering, feature estimation, surface reconstruction, registration, model fitting and segmentation. These algorithms can be used, for example, to filter outliers from noisy data, stitch 3D point clouds together, segment relevant parts of a scene, extract keypoints and compute descriptors to recognize objects in the world based on their geometric appearance, and create surfaces from point clouds and visualize them -- to name a few.
PCL is released under the terms of the 3-clause BSD license and is open source software. It is free for commercial and research use.
PCL is cross-platform, and has been successfully compiled and deployed on Linux, MacOS, Windows, and Android/iOS. To simplify development, PCL is split into a series of smaller code libraries, that can be compiled separately. This modularity is important for distributing PCL on platforms with reduced computational or size constraints (for more information about each module see the documentation page). Another way to think about PCL is as a graph of code libraries, similar to the Boost set of C++ libraries. Here's an example:
The project is being developed by a large number of engineers and scientists from many different organizations, geographically distributed all around the world, including:
Please see the developers website at http://dev.pointclouds.org/ for more details.
The project is financially supported by Open Perception, Willow Garage, NVidia, Google (GSOC 2011,2012), Toyota, Trimble, Urban Robotics, Honda Research Institute, Sandia Intelligent Systems and Robotics, Dinast, Optronic, Velodyne, Spectrolab, Fotonic, Leica Geosystems, National Institute of Standards and Technology, Southwest Research Institute, Ocular Robotics, TetraVue, Aptina, Intel, and REMAP UCLA. We would also like to thank and acknowledge the support of the Ministry of Knowledge and Economy (MKE) from South Korea, who has generously awarded PCL with the First Prize at the Open Source Software World Challenge in 2011.
If you're interested in supporting the project in any form (anything from a check to a pat on the shoulder will do), please use the contact form here, or get in touch with us through our host organization, Open Perception. Thank you in advance for your support.
A point cloud is a data structure used to represent a collection of multi-dimensional points and is commonly used to represent three-dimensional data. In a 3D point cloud, the points usually represent the X, Y, and Z geometric coordinates of an underlying sampled surface. When color information is present (see the figures below), the point cloud becomes 4D.
Point clouds can be acquired from hardware sensors such as stereo cameras, 3D scanners, or time-of-flight cameras, or generated from a computer program synthetically. PCL supports natively the OpenNI 3D interfaces, and can thus acquire and process data from devices such as the PrimeSensor 3D cameras, the Microsoft Kinect, or the Asus XTionPRO.
For more information about point clouds and 3D processing please visit our documentation page.

- Rest (1) (remove)
Objectives: To prevent an accumulation of strain during work and to reduce error risk, many countries have made rest breaks mandatory. In the nursing literature, insufficient rest break organization is often reported. However, the outcomes of nurses' rest break organization and its anteceding factors are less clear. Data sources: We searched for academic literature on nurses' rest break organization in electronic databases (PubMed, Medline, PsycArticles, PsycINFO, CINAHL). Review methods: Our search yielded 89 potentially relevant articles published between 01/1990 and 04/2016. The final sample in our scoping review consisted of 36 publications and included data from 35 independent and international study samples and two reviews. Results: Several studies reported a high prevalence of missed, interrupted, or delayed rest breaks in nursing. Nurses' rest breaks often related to better physical and mental well-being but mainly did not affect motivational outcomes and performance. Results on the effects of napping breaks were inconsistent. Rest break activities and rest break areas are further factors that relieve nurses from job demands and can be helpful in coping with them. Several study results indicated that temporal and quantitative work demands, job resources, and individual characteristics influence rest break organization. However, most of these findings stem from studies that do not allow causal conclusions to be drawn. Conclusions: Well-designed rest breaks influence nurses' occupational well-being and behavior positively. However, the mechanisms and moderating break-, work-, and person-related factors involved in producing these effects are less well understood. Thus, further theory building and stronger empirical data are needed.

Max in America 2007
One thing I'm looking forward to is discovering what wacky new security schemes US Customs has come up with since I last visited. In 2006 they'd added fingerprinting and digital mug shots. This time I'm thinking maybe they'll swab my mouth or get me to sing the Pledge of Allegiance. Or maybe they have followed this route to its logical conclusion and now herd foreign visitors straight from the airport to prisons, where any of us not intending to commit terrorist atrocities can fill out applications to be released.
Wow, that was pretty cynical, even for me. I'm not sure if that struck the appropriately witty, feel-good note I want to promote a book tour. But anyway. I have dates! And here they are:
- Los Angeles, CA
Sunday March 25th, 2007
- Denver, CO
Monday March 26th, 2007

- Austin, TX
Friday March 30th, 2007
- Phoenix, AZ
Saturday March 31st, 2007

As usual, I expect any outrage over ill-considered dates, places, etc, to be directed at my publisher. Remember, they're the ones organizing this stuff. I'm just turning up and cleaning out the mini-bars.

Revision as of 12:04, 7 November 2017
This article covers special topics for operating w:Solid State Drives (SSDs) and other flash-memory based storage devices. If you want to partition an SSD for a specific purpose, it may be useful to consider the List of file systems optimized for flash memory. For general usage, you should simply choose your preferred filesystem.
- 1 Usage
- 2 Troubleshooting
- 3 Firmware
- 4 See also
Most SSDs support the ATA_TRIM command for sustained long-term performance and wear-leveling. A techspot article shows performance benchmark examples of before and after filling an SSD with data.
As of Linux kernel version 3.8 onwards, support for TRIM was continually added for the different filesystems. See the following table for an indicative overview:
|File system
|Continuous TRIM
discard option)
|Periodic TRIM
and notes
|since version 2015.3.14, [4]
To verify TRIM support, run:
# lsblk -D
And check the values of DISC-GRAN and DISC-MAX columns. Non-zero values indicate TRIM support.
Or install hdparm package and run:
# hdparm -I /dev/sda | grep TRIM * Data Set Management TRIM supported (limit 1 block)
Periodic TRIM
The util-linux package provides
fstrim.service and
fstrim.timer systemd unit files. Enabling the timer will activate the service weekly. The service executes fstrim(8) on all mounted filesystems on devices that support the discard operation.
The timer relies on the timestamp of
/var/lib/systemd/timers/stamp-fstrim.timer (which it will create upon first invocation) to know whether a week has elapsed since it last ran. Therefore there is no need to worry about too frequent invocations, in an anacron-like fashion.
To query the units activity and status, see journalctl. To change the periodicity of the timer or the command run, edit the provided unit files.
Continuous TRIM
discard mount flag is recommended against generally by ext filesystem developer Theodore Ts'o. If in doubt about your hardware, apply #Periodic TRIM instead.
Using the
discard option for a mount in
/etc/fstab enables continuous TRIM in device operations:
/dev/sda1 / ext4 defaults,discard 0 1
The main benefit of continuous TRIM is speed; an SSD can perform more efficient garbage collection. However, results vary and particularly earlier SSD generations may also show just the opposite effect. Also for this reason, some distributions decided against using it (e.g. Ubuntu: see this article and the related blueprint).
discard flag if you run
fstrim periodically.
On the ext4 filesystem, the
discard flag can also be set as a default mount option using tune2fs:
# tune2fs -o discard /dev/sdXY
Using the default mount options instead of an entry in
/etc/fstab is useful for external drives, because such partition will be mounted with the default options also on other machines. There is no need to edit
/etc/fstab on every machine.
Trim an entire device
If you want to trim your entire SSD at once, e.g. for a new install, or you want to sell your SSD, you can use the blkdiscard command, which will instantly discard all blocks on a device.
# blkdiscard /dev/sdX
Change the value of
issue_discards option from 0 to 1 in
/etc/lvm/lvm.conf). As such it does not seem to be required for "regular" TRIM requests (file deletions inside a filesystem) to be functional.
For non-root filesystems, configure
/etc/crypttab to include
discard in the list of options for encrypted block devices located on an SSD (see Dm-crypt/System configuration#crypttab).
For the root filesystem, follow the instructions from Dm-crypt/TRIM support for SSD to add the right kernel parameter to the bootloader configuration.
Maximizing performance
Follow the tips in Improving performance#Storage devices to maximize the performance of your drives.
Hdparm shows "frozen" state
Some motherboard BIOS' issue a "security freeze" command to attached storage devices on initialization. Likewise some SSD (and HDD) BIOS' are set to "security freeze" in the factory already. Both result in the device's password security settings to be set to frozen, as shown in below output:
# hdparm -I /dev/sda
Security: Master password revision code = 65534 supported not enabled not locked frozen not expired: security count supported: enhanced erase 4min for SECURITY ERASE UNIT. 2min for ENHANCED SECURITY ERASE UNIT.
Operations like formatting the device or installing operating systems are not affected by the "security freeze".
The above output shows the device is not locked by a HDD-password on boot and the frozen state safeguards the device against malwares which may try to lock it by setting a password to it at runtime.
If you intend to set a password to a "frozen" device yourself, a motherboard BIOS with support for it is required. A lot of notebooks have support, because it is required for hardware encryption, but support may not be trivial for a desktop/server board. For the Intel DH67CL/BL motherboard, for example, the motherboard has to be set to "maintenance mode" by a physical jumper to access the settings (see [5], [6]).
hdparm unless you know exactly what you are doing.
If you intend to erase the SSD, see Securely wipe disk#hdparm and #SSD memory cell clearing below.
SSD memory cell clearing
On occasion, users may wish to completely reset an SSD's cells to the same virgin state they were at the time the device was installed thus restoring it to its factory default write performance. Write performance is known to degrade over time even on SSDs with native TRIM support. TRIM only safeguards against file deletes, not replacements such as an incremental save.
The reset is easily accomplished in a three step procedure denoted on the SSD memory cell clearing wiki article. If the reason for the reset is to wipe data, you may not want to rely on the SSD bios to perform it securely. See Securely wipe disk#Flash memory for further information and examples to perform a wipe.
Hardware encryption
As noted in #Hdparm shows frozen state setting a password for a storage device (SSD/HDD) in the BIOS may also initialize the hardware encryption of devices supporting it. If the device also conforms to the OPAL standard, this may also be achieved without a respective BIOS feature to set the passphrase, see Self-Encrypting Drives.
It is possible that the issue you are encountering is a firmware bug which is not Linux specific, so before trying to troubleshoot an issue affecting the SSD device, you should first check if updates are available for:
Even if it is a firmware bug it might be possible to avoid it, so if there are no updates to the firmware or you hesitant on updating firmware then the following might help.
Resolving NCQ errors
Some SSDs and SATA chipsets do not work properly with Linux Native Command Queueing (NCQ). The tell-tale dmesg errors look like this:
[ 9.115544] ata9: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0xf SErr 0x0 action 0x10 frozen [ 9.115550] ata9.00: failed command: READ FPDMA QUEUED [ 9.115556] ata9.00: cmd 60/04:00:d4:82:85/00:00:1f:00:00/40 tag 0 ncq 2048 in [ 9.115557] res 40/00:18:d3:82:85/00:00:1f:00:00/40 Emask 0x4 (timeout)
To disable NCQ on boot, add
libata.force=noncq to the kernel command line in the bootloader configuration. To disable NCQ only for disk 0 on port 1 use:
Alternatively, you may disable NCQ for a specific drive without rebooting via sysfs:
# echo 1 > /sys/block/sdX/device/queue_depth
If this (and also updating the firmware) does not resolves the problem or cause other issues, then file a bug report.
Some SSDs (e.g. Transcend MTS400) are failing when SATA Active Link Power Management, ALPM, is enabled. ALPM is disabled by default and enabled by a power saving daemon (e.g. TLP, Laptop Mode Tools).
If you are starting to encounter SATA related errors when using such a daemon, you should try to disable ALPM by setting its state to
max_performance for both battery and AC powered profiles.
ADATA has a utility available for Linux (i686) on their support page here. The link to latest firmware will appear after selecting the model. The latest Linux update utility is packed with firmware and needs to be run as root. One may need to set correct permissions for binary file first.
Crucial provides an option for updating the firmware with an ISO image. These images can be found after selecting the product here and downloading the "Manual Boot File."
dd command to copy the image to some device, the MBR won't be present, making such device unbootable.
Owners of an M4 Crucial model, may check if a firmware upgrade is needed with
$ smartctl --all /dev/sdX
==> WARNING: This drive may hang after 5184 hours of power-on time: http://www.tomshardware.com/news/Crucial-m4-Firmware-BSOD,14544.html See the following web pages for firmware updates: http://www.crucial.com/support/firmware.aspx http://www.micron.com/products/solid-state-storage/client-ssd#software
Users seeing this warning are advised to backup all sensible data and consider upgrading immediately. Check this instructions to update Crucial MX100 firmware by using the ISO image and Grub.
Intel has a Linux live system based Firmware Update Tool for operating systems that are not compatible with its Intel® Solid-State Drive Toolbox software.
Kingston has a Linux utility to update the firmware of Sandforce controller based drives: SSD support page. Click the images on the page to go to a support page for your SSD model. Support specifically for, e.g. the SH100S3 SSD, can be found here: support page.
The lesser known Mushkin brand Solid State drives also use Sandforce controllers, and have a Linux utility (nearly identical to Kingston's) to update the firmware.
OCZ has a command line utility available for Linux (i686 and x86_64) on their forum here. The AUR provides ocz-ssd-utilityAUR, ocztoolboxAUR and oczcloutAUR.
Samsung notes that update methods other than using their Magician Software are "not supported," but it is possible. The Magician Software can be used to make a USB drive bootable with the firmware update. Samsung provides pre-made bootable ISO images that can be used to update the firmware. Another option is to use Samsung's samsung_magicianAUR, which is available in the AUR. Magician only supports Samsung-branded SSDs; those manufactured by Samsung for OEMs (e.g., Lenovo) are not supported.
Users preferring to run the firmware update from a live USB created under Linux (without using Samsung's "Magician" software under Microsoft Windows) can refer to this post for reference.
Native upgrade
Alternatively, the firmware can be upgraded natively, without making a bootable USB stick, as shown below.
First visit the Samsung downloads page and download the latest firmware for Windows, which is available as a disk image. In the following,
Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q.iso is used as an example file name, adjust it accordingly.
Setup the disk image:
$ udisksctl loop-setup -r -f Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q.iso
This will make the ISO available as a loop device, and display the device path. Assuming it was
$ udisksctl mount -b /dev/loop0
Get the contents of the disk:
$ mkdir Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q $ cp -r /run/media/$USER/CDROM/isolinux/ Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q
Unmount the iso:
$ udisksctl unmount -b /dev/loop0 $ cd Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q/isolinux
There is a FreeDOS image here that contains the firmware. Mount the image as before:
$ udisksctl loop-setup -r -f btdsk.img $ udisksctl mount -b /dev/loop1 $ cp -r /run/media/$USER/C04D-1342/ Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q $ cd Samsung_SSD_840_EVO_EXT0DB6Q/C04D-1342/samsung
Get the disk number from magician:
# magician -L
Assuming it was 0:
# magician --disk 0 -F -p DSRD
Verify that the latest firmware has been installed:
# magician -L
Finally reboot.
SanDisk makes ISO firmware images to allow SSD firmware update on operating systems that are unsupported by their SanDisk SSD Toolkit. One must choose the firmware for the right SSD model, as well as for the capacity that it has (e.g. 60GB, or 256GB). After burning the adequate ISO firmware image, simply restart the PC to boot with the newly created CD/DVD boot disk (may work from a USB stick).
The iso images just contain a linux kernel and an initrd. Extract them to
/boot partition and boot them with GRUB or Syslinux to update the firmware.

A dramatic film about the last day in the life of a man shot to death in Oakland by a BART police officer on New Year's Day 2009 was awarded a top prize for a dramatic film at the Sundance Film Festival Saturday.
Fruitvale, written and directed by Bay Area filmmaker Ryan Coogler, was awarded the U.S. Jury Grand Prize for a dramatic film.
Coogler accepted the award Saturday night during a ceremony at Basin Recreation Field House on in Park City, Utah.
The film follows Oscar Grant in the hours leading up to his death at the Fruitvale BART station.
Grant is played by actor Michael B. Jordan, who is known for roles in The Wire, Friday Night Lights and Parenthood.
Here's how Sundance summarized the 90 minute film:
Oscar Grant was a 22-year-old Bay Area resident who loved his friends, was generous to strangers, and had a hard time telling the truth to the mother of his beautiful daughter. He was scared and courageous and charming and raw, and as human as the community he was part of. That community paid attention to him, shouted on his behalf, and filmed him with their cell phones when BART officers, who were strong, intimidated, and acting in the way they thought they were supposed to behave around people like Oscar, shot him in cold blood at the Fruitvale subway stop on New Year's Day in 2009.
Grant, a 22-year-old Hayward resident, was fatally shot in the back in the early hours of Jan. 1, 2009 by BART police officer Johannes Mehserle. Grant was unarmed at the time he was shot, and his death caused widespread outrage and protests in Oakland.
Mehserle was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in a 2010 trial that was moved to Los Angeles County Superior Court because of intense publicity in the Bay Area. He was sentenced to two years in prison and released in 2011 due to credits for time served.
Mehserle testified that he intended to use a taser stun gun but accidentally drew his revolver instead. Grant's family and several other men who were detained with him in the BART station at the time of the shooting have lawsuits pending against Mehserle and others connected with the incident.
Grant's uncle, Cephus Johnson, told NBC Bay Area on Sunday, that the family was pleased with the film.
"We knew this movie would help us share with the world who Oscar was, you know, no one is perfect and we should all be entitled to some redemptive acceptance in our lives," he said.
NBC Bay Area's Monte Francis contributed to this report.

text: RDS Expand Regional Teams Initiative Tweet RDS 2005's Celebrate EDP Fall Classic Win © New York Red Bulls Expand Youth Platform – Expansion of RDS Regional Teams The New York Red Bulls Regional Development Schools (RDS) will expand their Regional Team initiative with the addition of six new teams in 2017. After a hugely successful inaugural season piloting the year-round program with the 2005 age group, the New York Red Bulls RDS will field three teams in the 2007 and 2008 age groups respectively, all of whom will complete in Eastern Development program (EDP) League. The regionally based teams will each hold small rosters of 12 to 14 players. With one region spanning New Jersey and all points west, one encompassing Westchester, Rockland, and all points north, and a third catering for NYC, Nassau county, all points east, these new teams will provide unrivalled coverage for New York Red Bulls' flagship player development program. In doing so, the pre-Academy feeder system ensures that elite youth players from the entire Metro area will have access to what promises to be some of the most competitive youth teams in the nation. Each team will begin with a pre-season residential camp week, to prepare all players for a successful season with their new team-mates. Throughout the Spring and Fall, each team will participate in two local training sessions per week, in addition to one optional centralized training session at Red Bulls Training Facility in Hanover, N.J. All home games will be played at Red Bulls Training Facility. All teams will participate in four high-level tournaments each year, and players will benefit from additional indoor winter training, summer residential camps, and supplementary Futbolinho training. As part of an MLS set-up, teams will also have the the opportunity to participate in exclusive MLS events such as the Generation Adidas Cup, Toronto FC KIA Fall Invitational, and numerous other exclusive events. Tryouts for the 2007 and 2008 RDS Regional Teams will be held throughout March and April. Players selected to the rosters will be notified in late April, with league play commencing in September 2017. Consistent with New York Red Bulls' policy of developing youth talent, dual carding is permitted, provided a player's primary commitment is to Red Bull New York.
