Charlie Daniels Band
May 10 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Event Navigation
From his Dove Award winning gospel albums to his genre-defining Southern rock anthems and his CMA Award-winning country hits, few artists have left a more indelible mark on America's musical landscape than Charlie Daniels.
His own unique voice as an artist emerged as Charlie recorded his self-titled solo album in 1970 for Capitol Records. Two years later he formed the Charlie Daniels Band and the group scored its first hit with the top ten "Uneasy Rider." Since then the CDB has populated radio with such memorable hits as "Long Haired Country Boy," "The South's Gonna Do It Again," "In America," "The Legend of Wooley Swamp" and of course, his signature song, "The Devil Went Down to Georgia," which won a Grammy for Best Country Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group in 1979 as well as single of the year at the Country Music Association Awards. Charlie just exudes joy whenever he steps on stage.

Wondering what you can do to nurture healthy, vibrant skin from the inside out? Tackle stress! Make Dr. Amy's seven habits — which are the heart and soul of her book, The Mind-Beauty Connection — part of your life. Then, watch every inch of you — but especially your face — start to look younger, less stressed, more alive. Each step chips away at the nonstop pressure and tension that can age you 6 years or more. Use the 9-Day Renewal Plan to get the stress wrecking-ball rolling.
1. Practice Deep Breathing
Shift your body's balance of oxygen versus carbon dioxide in favor of energizing, stress-squashing oxygen by doing slow, controlled breathing exercises. Here are three good ones.
- How often? Aim for twice a day.
- Why do it? When you focus on your breathing, you're not focusing on anything else (your to-do list or the late babysitter). That mental shift helps remove stressors, bringing you to a deeper level of consciousness, a place where you can put things into perspective.
2. Get Active
Release the repressed anxiety trapped inside you by putting your body in motion for 30 minutes or more.
- How often? Do something — anything — every day, because exercise only tames stress for a maximum of 24 hours. So to reap the most benefits, you need to do it daily. If you prefer, tuck 10-minute pockets of activity into your day — at lunch, after dinner, right after you get up and the house is still quiet. Find ways to sneak fitness into your schedule.
- Why do it? Staying active boosts circulation, which delivers more nutrients to cells and skin. It also increases lung capacity, so you can take in more oxygen; lifts your spirits and sense of well-being; and fights age-related diseases. And, for many, it's the ultimate stress reducer.
3. Beat the Foods That Beat You
Reduce the allure of sugary, fatty foods — which are as bad for your skin as they are for the rest of you — by eating more lean protein: fish, eggs, poultry, low-fat dairy foods, and even walnuts. Use this list of good-for-your-skin foods that can help lower stress and fight wrinkles, too. Also, try to be more aware of what you reach for — and how much you consume — when you're stressed. Get some pointers on mindful eating.
- How often? All day, but especially early on — morning protein helps curb afternoon cravings.
- Why do it? Protein is key to avoiding mood swings and energy dips. It helps you maintain a healthy blood sugar balance, which in turn keeps certain hormones (including insulin) in check. Bumping up your protein intake also gives you more energy and fights hunger pangs, which can play games with your moods.
4. Focus on the Good Things
Pick up a notebook you particularly like, and at the end of each day, make a list of things for which you are truly grateful. Or write down three things that went well, and why.
- How often? Nightly, as part of your winding-down routine.
- Why do it? Keeping a journal that records the good things in life helps shift your focus to what you're doing right, and that can put the brakes on the stressful negative chatter that often goes on in your head.
5. Stretch Out Your Sleep
Make it a goal to sleep as many hours as you need to feel alive and productive the next day — all day.
- How often? Every night.
- Why do it? Sleep is free cosmetic medicine, pure and simple. When you ask Dr. Amy what single thing makes the biggest improvement in how a stressed-out person looks, she says, "Sleep." Nothing exacerbates stress and etches in lines like exhaustion.
6. Take a Time-Out
For most of us, life is so hyperscheduled and speedy that we never do absolutely nothing. It's rare to set aside time to simply be — no agenda, no demands, no plan. (Just like a real vacation. See if you're due for one.) Find a comfortable, quiet spot to sit for 10 to 15 minutes every day, stop all your hustling and bustling . . . and simply, by yourself, be still.
- How often? Try for once a day.
- Why do it? Slowing down for a little while helps create a sense of spaciousness in your life, a break in the nonstop whirl that can open the door to new perceptions, new solutions, new possibilities. It gives your brain, your psyche, your whole being a break. Like one long, peaceful sigh.
7. Cuddle or Have Sex
Enjoy a little intimacy.
- How often? At least once a week.
- Why do it? All kinds of age-defying, beauty-promoting events happen during sex as three seductive hormones spill out of the brain: endorphin, a natural opiate, which contributes to that delicious high; prolactin, which gives you that relaxing, tension-zapping ahhhhhhh; and soothing oxytocin, which promotes feelings of affection and triggers a nurturing instinct.

Three jailers at the center of a nearly two-year-old controversy surrounding the beating of a female inmate at the Tazewell County Jail have been reinstated.
Three jailers at the center of a nearly two-year-old controversy surrounding the beating of a female inmate at the Tazewell County Jail have been reinstated.
The reinstatements Tuesday bring to a conclusion months of contentious hearings over the status of Sgt. Richard Johnston and corrections officers Jeffrey Bieber and Justin Piro, who were charged with misconduct after the October 2008 beating of Becky Behm.
All three jailers have twice been found not guilty of the administrative charges leveled against them by Tazewell County Sheriff Robert Huston, who had sought to have their jobs terminated.
"The not guilty verdict of the Tazewell County Merit Commission was and remains an outrage," Huston said in a release. "The evidence in this case was overwhelming in the direction of guilt."
Rob Scott, an attorney with the Fraternal Order of Police Labor Council who represented Bieber before the Merit Commission, did not return a call seeking comment Tuesday. The group had been critical of Huston's hesitancy to follow the orders of the commission and for releasing a video of Behm's cell to the media.
None of the jailers faced criminal charges connected to the incident. Behm sued the county in federal court and settled the case for $175,000 last year.
"Tazewell County has already paid to settle the lawsuit in this case," Huston said. "This was done in this case because of the clear, wrongful conduct of these officers."
Behm was brought to the jail after being arrested for drunken driving. She was belligerent toward Bieber and Piro, who allegedly swung her head-first into a concrete wall in a cell, punched her in the face and doused her with pepper spray.
The officers were accused of using excessive force in responding to Behm's actions. Johnston was accused of not acting properly as a supervisor, in part for not offering medical assistance to Behm.
The Merit Commission last year acquitted the jailers of all charges and ordered them reinstated with back pay after several hearings. Huston appealed that decision in Tazewell County court and won, with the case returned to the commission for further consideration.
Those hearings resumed earlier this year, and members of the commission again ruled in favor of the jailers.
"The one thing in this case that we can not overturn on appeal is the stubbornness of the Merit Commission," Huston said. "Apparently, no one can force them to do the right thing."

With its charm, history, and diverse culture, the UK's capital city will find its way into your heart the first time you visit. This sprawling metropolis of beautiful architecture, a world famous underground transport system and plentiful tourist attractions means that your trip to London will be exciting, eye-opening, and action-packed.
If you love a good museum, London has plenty of brilliant free attractions! Visit The Natural History Museum or The Science Museum (both are free of charge), for a dose of facts and hands on exhibits. Just a short stroll from the beautiful Kensington Palace and Gardens. And if you love animals, then London Zoo is a must-see!
London is renowned for its food and drink so be sure to make time to explore just some of what is on offer. Head to Covent Garden where you'll find cuisine from all over the world, as well as a whole host of trendy cocktail and martini bars and some good old-fashioned British pubs! If you fancy somewhere a bit more lively, head over to Soho.
And let's not forget all you shopaholics; London is a shopper's paradise! For world-famous department stores such as Selfridges, John Lewis and Debenhams, then you'll want to head to Oxford Street. Or to really splash the cash in London's most exclusive shopping area, take a walk around Bond Street and Mayfair.
The South West
Porthcurno Beach, Cornwall
The South West of England is home to a whole host of amazing regions and cities, including Devon, Cornwall, Exeter, Poole, Plymouth, the Cotswolds, Bristol, and Bath.
Beautiful coastlines, two National Parks, and five areas of Outstanding National Beauty make Devon and Cornwall truly unforgettable. Get back to nature with long walks, fishing, riding, or even sailing, or take the whole family out for a fun-filled day at the theme park, zoo, or aquarium. After all that activity, why not treat yourself to cream tea? Cream tea is a light afternoon meal (also known as 'tea') which involves drinking cups of tea and eating scones, clotted cream and jam. However, the order of adding the cream and jam is different in Devon and Cornwall; Devonshire cream tea is made with the cream on the bottom and the jam on the top, while Cornish cream tea is made with the jam on the bottom and the cream on the top! Try both and see which you prefer!
Exeter is the capital city of Devon and has a wonderful mix of ancient history and modern amenities. A spot of retail-therapy is a must as not only will you find leading high-street brands, but also unique, quirky shops that make this city so charming.

A lovely onsite cafe will allow you to take a well-deserved break after all that exploring!
And if you're still hungry for more, don't miss Exeter's Underground Passages; a network of tunnels that used to supply the city with fresh water. It's now a fascinating tourist attraction, complete with exhibits and interactive displays. They also offer guided tours which get really busy during peak-season, so it's advisable to book in advance.
Just 6 miles from Bournemouth (approx 20 minutes in the car) is Poole, a large coastal town and seaport on the south coast of England. With its Blue Flag beaches and miles of sandy shores, Poole is the ideal place for swimming, watersports, and sailing.
If you prefer to keep your feet dry, Poole has two beautiful nature parks; Holes Bay Nature Park and Corfe Barrows Nature Park. It also has a fantastic cycle network and numerous walking trails.
Plymouth is a waterfront city situated on the south coast of Devon. It's about 37 miles from Exeter and is easily accessible by road and rail.

West Midlands
Birmingham canals
This is the furthest inland you can get within the UK, so don't expect any views of the sea! But what this region lacks in coastline, it makes up for with National Parks, World Heritage Sites, and five areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is the place to come for long walks, climbing, trekking, horse riding, and exploring pretty old towns. Here you'll also find the River Severn, the longest river in the UK.

Birmingham is world-famous for its Bull Ring shopping centre. Easily recognised by the iconic Selfridges building and 6 tonne bronze bull, this 3-level shopping haven has everything you could possibly want from a spot of retail-therapy.

The people of Yorkshire are like no other; they have their own distinctive accent and dialect, a ferocious sense of British pride, and a fiercely friendly nature! You really won't find more down-to-earth, thoroughly British folk than those in Yorkshire.
Yorkshire is the largest county in England and has a population of over 5 million; that's more than in Wales or Ireland, and nearly as many as Scotland! Despite this, Yorkshire still has huge expanses of beautiful countryside dotted with quaint towns and villages, and is of course home to the famous Yorkshire Dales. Located within the Yorkshire Dales, the Three Peaks are some of the best hills in England, and every year many visitors flock here to try and conquer at least one of the magnificent summits.

Northern Ireland
Belfast City Hall, Belfast

*As Epe car crushing plant facility rots away
To prevent miscreants from planting bombs and grenades in abandoned and disused vehicles, the Lagos State Government has come up with various security measures including evacuation of such vehicles from the roads .
Subsequently, a committee on abandoned/disused vehicles was established. It is charged with the responsibility of removing the vehicles.
Several abandoned vehicles in areas such as; Surulere, Mainland, Mushin, Agege, Ketu among other council areas that make up the 20 Local Governments and 37 Local Council Development Areas, were later removed.
Apart from serving as hideout for criminals, such vehicles impede free flow of traffic, resulting in gridlocks where lives and property of citizens are threatened. The irony, however, is – no sooner than the government evacuated abandoned vehicles do others replace them.
Also worrisome is the abandoned refurbished car crushing plant at Shalla in Epe, where decrepit vehicles were supposed to be crushed and recycled. The plant, built with several millions of public fund has been under lock and key.
The wide expanse of land at Epe, dedicated to the crushing purpose is presently over-grown with weeds, with no sign of activity.
However, while inspecting the plant sometime this year, governor Babatunde Fashola noted that the place was under- utilised, stressing; "There is need to increase the capacity of the industry in order to boost the revenue generation and employment need of the state."
All efforts to find out the immediate and remote causes of inactivity at the crushing plant from the transportation commissioner Mr Kayode Opeifa, whose ministry oversees its running was unsuccessful at press time. However, recently while giving the scorecard of the ministry, Opeifa said; "While we are proud to have removed over 4,500 abandoned and disused vehicles from Lagos state roads, it is sad that recent surveys by Community Development Associations, CDAs, and Community Development Councils, CDCs, under the supervision of the Ministry of Rural Development have, from the beginning of the year, identified another 4,632 vehicles abandoned on over 9,100 roads in Lagos State.
"It is equally sad that as soon as we completed the removal exercise in Surulere Local Government, working in conjunction with the CDCs and the local government chairman, some vehicles were back on the roads especially on Cole Street, Shifawu Street and Ayilara/ Clegg area.
"These vehicles are veritable tools for hoodlums, miscreants, armed robbers and other forms of social vices. Also they pose as health risk to residents."
Obstruction to traffic
Investigation by Vanguard revealed that abandoned vehicles still litter the state, causing obstruction to traffic as well as posing security threat to residents.
The committee seemed to have relaxed in the responsibility of enforcing the removal order as owners of abandoned vehicles have left them unattended to in their usual manner.
Some of the streets where vehicles are abandoned recklessly include: Olorunde, Amoo Streets, Orile Agege, Kasumu Street, Agege, Oniwaya Street also in Agege area. They are also found at Ipodo Street, Ikeja, near Ikeja flyover bridge, off Awolowo Way, Oduyemi Street, Ikeja; Ikorodu environs; Ojo, Orile-Igamu, Apapa council area and Yaba, among others.

Jon Gabriel's Method for Non-Diet Weight Loss
Results not typical. Stress management, emotional health, balanced nutrition and/or physical activity are often needed to achieve and maintain weight loss. Full FTC Disclaimer
The above pictures are actual, untouched "before and after" photos of me. I lost 226 pounds without dieting and without surgery.
Maybe you saw my story on Today Tonight or on A Current Affair. Or perhaps you may have heard Muhammad Ali's daughter, Khaliah, talk about me on various talk shows in the US like The Today Show,and Entertainment Tonight.
Other places you may have seen my story include, The Sunday Morning Times, WHO magazine, Nova Magazine, Holistic Primary Care Magazine or on radio stations: Coast to Coast AM, ABC Radio and the Bill and Kelly show in Burbank, CA.
This is NOT a diet. This is NOT about grueling exercise. This is NOT about high-priced gym memberships. This is NOT about any form of drugs. This is NOT about meal plans.
When my daughter's nanny, Carole Skabe, discovered what I have to share she lost 88 pounds over a 6 month period – without dieting. Her 14 year old granddaughter, Chantelle, lost 44 pounds in just 2 months. Chantelle is now speaking with me at seminars and schools, helping other teenagers solve their weight problems forever.
After Gabrielle Hart of XLR radio in Brisbane interviewed me for her radio show, she became so inspired that she lost 38 pounds. That was weight she had been struggling to lose for years, and she lost it in just four weeks. Ms. Hart has now invited me to be the resident weight loss expert on her weekly radio program.
And here's what Khaliah Ali (daughter of boxing champion Muhammed Ali) had to say about my approach in an interview for WHO magazine:
"I have been truly blessed to have a very close relationship with Jon Gabriel, so much so that I consider him my brother. His wisdom and his broad-reaching knowledge have acted as a guide to help navigate me through all the noise and confusion in the world of weight loss. His story is very compelling and alluring but what's more compelling is the way he's going to go out into the world and completely transform it."
Results not typical. Stress management, emotional health, balanced nutrition and/or physical activity are often needed to achieve and maintain weight loss. Full FTC Disclaimer
But it's not just celebrities that are endorsing this…

Happy Mother's Day, Mom!!!!
Shout out to my mom who, in no particular order:
Dresses better than anyone I know
Makes the most spectacular potato salad, spaghetti, gazpacho, and pumpkin pie ON EARTH
Raised SIX kids
Taught me to drive stick
Knows all the words to the Navy fight song
I think we all have lists like these about our moms...Most, by definition, are astonishing creatures. But I'm glad I have the one I do. Thanks, Mom.

So these are definitely not the official Easter portraits. We woke up way too late on Sunday so I didn't have time to do the kids hair like I wanted and to spend more time getting cute pictures. Some day if it ever stops raining I will take them outside to do it.
Here is Jake sporting his famous Dinosaur growl face.And here he is again being extremely cooperative.
Lily was SO excited to finally get to wear her Easter outfit. This is her jumping for joy.
And this is her being her usual cutesy self. She is so proud of those new shoes.

Saturday afternoon. Just over a week since leaving home. Already it feels like a lifetime.
Sitting in Sea-Tac Airport, Seattle, waiting for a flight to Sacramento. We arrived in the rain and we are leaving in the rain. After the dry, clear sunshine of Denver, we flew in yesterday to gale force winds and ice-edged rain driving in off the Pacific.
This town, so like Glasgow - the light, the rain, the seven hills - was alive with fancy-dress kids attending a Japanese anime convention, lending already spaced brains an even more surreal perspective on the world.
Having dropped our bags off at the Renaissance Hotel, we fought against the wind and the rain, mid-afternoon, to the Pike Street fish market where we found my favourite chowder joint - a tiny café squeezed into a corner of the market, where they serve the most wonderful chowders. Sadly they were out of my favourite smoked salmon, and I had to do with southern chicken and corn instead. Large cups of thick, warming, comforting soup.
Neither La Patronne nor I could face another restaurant last night, so while at the market we found a great cheese stall, bought a selection of nice cheeses, some herb crackers, then went in search of a screw-top bottle of wine - can't carry a corkscrew with us on our flights.
So it was cheese and wine in the room before collapsing amongst the pillows of the king-sized bed for an early, early night.
Of course, I was awake at 5.30am, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, and with a morning to kill before my signing event at the Seattle Mystery Bookshop. I found a US channel showing the Man U/Chelsea game, which passed a couple of hours before breakfast, then another battle with the elements and the hills to find the bookstore, just off Pioneer Square.
Warmly welcomed as always by Bill and Fran, I signed stock for the shop, and books for customers - one of whom had dropped in looking specifically for a book set in Paris, to get the atmosphere of the city before heading off for a spring holiday. He bought "Extraordinary People" (now renamed "Dry Bones), and I recommended that he make a tour of the catacombs, which he would read about in the book. Before I left I made my own contribution to the bookstore's blog, which you can read here.
Then we ate in an Italian restaurant, and spent the afternoon feeling sick, and responding to excited e-mails from Susie in Sacramento who was getting orgasmic over an iPad delivery.
The airport has suddenly come alive with people in open sandals and shorts, and winter white skin. God knows where they've come from, or where they're going. It's the holidays!! Aaaargh!!!
Happy Easter.

Hello Goodbye
Saturday afternoon. Just over a week since leaving home. Already it feels like a lifetime.

There are several woods which I prefer to carve. Since I do commissions I use various woods for different carving projects. The next two woods are perhaps my most commonly carved woods and are perhaps the best woods for getting started with. These two woods are my carving mainstays. Any carving project could be accomplished with either of these woods.
Linden wood (Bass Wood) is an excellent wood for general carving as it has a relatively soft, tight, straight and perhaps boring grain. Which makes it an excellent wood to sink your knife or carving tools into. I like this wood for doing commissions of small figurines and reliefs. Since this wood will not hold up well to the elements it is not good for exterior sculpture or signs. This wood takes finishes well.
Sugar Pine or northeast white pine are good woods for most general carving projects which do not have fine details unless you have extremely sharp tools. Other then synthetic carving media, pine is a good choice for carved signs which are going to be painted or are going to be stained or finished naturally.
Some of my favorite carving woods include...
Walnut, this is an excellent wood and one of my favorites. It is an interesting wood in that it has a grain which is hard, has character, fun to carve, and takes to oil finishes. As far as I am concerned, this is what marble is to stone sculptors. Carving of walnut can be finely detailed or abstract with only smooth curves.
Teak, which a number of carvers tend to stay away from since it is renown to dull your tools is really a great wood. Teak has a rich grain that makes it interesting to carve.
African and Honduran Mahogany are good carving woods. However their grain can be tricky to carve and cause ripping if you are not careful. As with most tropical woods they have an open grain. Philippine Mahogany (Luan) is not a true mahogany and can be an okay wood some carving projects. Luan is actually any tropical wood that has similar characteristics and their grains range from soft to extremely hard and stingy. Luan really has nothing in common with a true Mahogany other then if stained with a mahogany stain they may appear to be Mahogany.
Eastern Cedar and Southwestern Juniper although both have a tricky grain to carve, do produce interesting carvings. Eastern Cedar comes from larger trees then the Southwestern Juniper. This means that the Eastern Cedar is mostly available as the reddish heart wood and also is known as Aromatic Cedar. Juniper has a reddish heart wood with a creamy sap wood and makes for some interesting carvings. The early Spanish settlers of the southwest used this wood for carving their Santos. There are about three different types of Juniper, some tend to have a more brownish heard wood. Juniper and Eastern Cedar are very similar and often mistaken for each other. I like Juniper because of its contrast between the heart wood and the sap wood and allows me to use this in my compositions.
Fruit Woods are always good for carving as they have a lot of grain characteristics which make for interesting carving. My favorites are Cherry, Pear, Apple, and Plum. I have a seen some interesting works carved in coconut and other types of nuts.
Other woods you may consider...
Oak can be used but it has drawbacks in that it has a heavy grain which can interfere with your design. With that said, if you keep your design simple or use the grain as part of that design you will be happy with this wood. American oak both red and white have a broader grain then English Oak which has been used for appliques on English furniture. So if you could acquire English Oak you could easily do more detailed work without having the grain interfering with your design.
Alaska Cedar which comes from well you can figure that out on your own. This wood carves much like Linen wood but is somewhat harder. It has a yellowish coloration and was used by northwest tribes to carve mask and totem poles.
Aspen and Cottonwood have also been used for carving but I personally have not enjoyed working with them.
There is a variety other woods that have been used by carvers from all over the world so there is no end to woods that you can use for carving. I have only mentioned some of the woods which I am personally familiar with. So find some wood and start carving.

So... why do #cpd23? Well, why not?! It's an ideal opportunity to learn a few new skills, brush up on some others, and become better at reflecting on my practice. It should provide evidence of continued personal growth for rigid mechanisms such as the Chartership process; and it will probably, at least sometimes, be entertaining!
Of course, it does require fairly consistent blogging, which I've pretty much failed at in the past. Indeed, in order to properly engage, I need to try and stay fairly current with the Things; looking back over the past month or so, I've never quite caught up to reality, always a day or two behind on email (and considerably more with RSS feeds), rendering what I find exciting news to be old hat to those around me. Maybe the structure of the program will force me to catch up a bit and make a concerted effort to remain abreast of developments.
Another element of #cpd23 which appealed to me was the burgeoning sense of community which already surrounds the project. I'm a relatively-neophyte tweeter (who really hasn't got the whole concision of language thing down yet), and this offers a valuable opportunity to be part of something larger than myself and the local half-acre of intellectual real-estate. Of course, in reality this may translate into even more people coming to know me as a crashing bore, but you can't hide who you are forever... :)
So, what are my aims? To be better (never was good at setting SMART targets)! To engage to show professional development; to be part of (and contribute towards) something larger; to refresh my ability to write long spiels of random thoughts and make it seem like there was some underlying plan (I'm award-winning in that last area, believe it or not...). One further personal aim: to write a few more straightforward sentences, without using colons and hyphens for awkward pauses or ending a thought on ellipses - that one may take some work...
Right, onwards and outwards, to explore a selection of the other blogs who're engaged in this enterprise! Please leave comments; I welcome abuse as well as faint praise, and deserve nothing more. [/selfdeprication]

I think trying to open the 3D viewer will also give the same error if the edge cut is not continuous.
Debugging step export
Thank you guys so much for the quick replies.
Both the 3d viewer and the dsn exports completes just fine with no errors.
When i replace my current outline with just a simple square the step export works, so this is definitely outline related. I double checked the design for dublicated lines, and couldn't find any, that would also throw an error in the 3d viewer.
My outline comes from a solidworks DXF export, with endpoint merging enabled.
Does anyone have any ideas ?
Do you have any footprints with models?
Yes, all of them except some virtual components.
Here are my SW2017 options for DXF export. I've never had a failure to import then export as step but that could also be geometry dependent.
Since you are using a nightly, it might be new enough that it has an additional menu item to show graphic items in sketch mode. This is under Preferences / Display and Hide.
You might see something wrong with the lines that you can't otherwise see.
Thanks again guys,
I started a new project and added only the outline, and it fails to export, 3d viewer and dsn export works just as before
Kiki: I have the same settings as you, but with the endpoint merging option enabled, with an error setting of 0.1 in this case. This means that all points that are within 0.1mm of each other will be merged.
Sprig: I enabled outline mode and verified every arc and line, they have the same start and end coordinates down to rounding of the last digit displayed in kicad, i.e. +/- 0.000001. I checked the source code for kicad2step, and two points within 0.0001 of each other are considered to be the same. I see absolutely no reason to why this shouldn't work. All coordinates are double precision so they should be fine.
kicad2step does post logs with wxLogMessage( "%s\n", ostr.str().c_str() ); but I have no idea on how to access that from the kicad ui, i tried running kicad2step.exe in cmd but that gives me nothing at all either.
I tried to upload the DXF file containing the outline, but since I'm a new user I'm not allowed
Should i report this as a bug ?
Ok, so i found what was causing it. Seems like there is an issue for short lines/arcs or small features. The endpoints of all segments does have the same coordinates, and the lengths of the segments are orders of magnitude bigger than the MIN_LENGTH2 defined in oce_utils.cpp, which decides how small features are allowed, but kicad2step still fails for some reason.
For future references:
Maybe one of the moderators can help out with the status issue. If you can post the sldprt and/or dxf I'd be willing to see if I can recreate the error.
He just flew up a step
If you can make a reproducable error dxf file for the devs and file a bugreport, I'm sure they want to know this.
this is a recursive query… in this case you can simple link a downloading page offered by i.e.google drive or similar on line clouds
Thanks Joan
Here is the DXF file, lets see if we can replicate it
main_pcb.DXF (19.8 KB)
Because I see no others joining,
I tested this with the StepUp exporter:
here the kicad_pcb that doesn't export from internal exporter (created importing the main_pcb.DXF in Kicad dev)
main_pcb.kicad_pcb (6.4 KB)
and the corresponding STEP model created with StepUp in FC0.17
main_pcb_ksu.step (62.8 KB)
If I import the DXF it looks good using the OpenGL canvas but the legacy canvas shows some discontinuities. I don't see the discontinuities in any other programs.
The KiCommand command 'ends' will calculate the endpoints of that arc. You can select it, then issue the following command string:
drawings selected ends print
The select the line segment and do the same command. And compare the answers.
I encountered a similar problem with STEP export in version 5. I downloaded the MKRWAN1300 Eagle files and imported them into KiCAD (https://store.arduino.cc/usa/mkr-wan-1300). They import fine. When I try to export the STEP file, I get the following error:
_Executing '"/Applications/KiCad/kicad.app/Contents/MacOS/kicad2step" -f -o "/Users/me/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Kicad/MKRWANV1.1/MKRWANV1.1.step" "/Users/me/Library/Mobile Documents/com~apple~CloudDocs/Kicad/MKRWANV1.1/_autosave-MKRWANV1.1.kicad_pcb"'_
_Warning: 11:09:49 AM: /vagrant/build/kicad/src/kicad/utils/kicad2step/pcb/oce_utils.cpp: addEdge: 1482_
_Warning: * added an auxiliary segment from 180.687,-92.5036 to 180.687,-92.5036_
_Warning: 0x113d17fcb : Standard_Failure: BRepAdaptor_Curve::No geometry_
_Error: Unable to create STEP file. Check that the board has a valid outline and models._
I noticed something weird with the corners of the board edge. When I zoom in and look at the corner top right corner (note all corners have this anomaly) where the edge is curved, the curve stop and end points are offset by a couple degrees. Might be an Eagle import issue? Not sure if this is causing the issue with exporting the STEP file or not. Here is a screen shot.
I suspect you are experiencing this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1784626
This is resolved for 5.0.1. You can test this using the 5.0 nightlies at http://downloads.kicad-pcb.org/osx/testing/5.0/
Thank you @Seth_h. Sounds like this might be the cause. I will download the nightly and give that a try and let you know.
One thing I noticed with a couple exports to STEP is that the pcb copper traces do not appear in the STEP model. Is that a limitation of exporting to STEP or is there a setting to include the copper traces?

The Huskies have still yet to lose this season, but they're likely to face a challenge from in-state competitor Eastern Washington this evening. How can we best take advantage of the NCAA basketball lines?
Odds Overview
As of now, the Huskies are favored by nine points in our NCAA basketball odds. They've still yet to lose once this season and odds makers are showing them love as a result.
Should we expect a lot of points tonight? Perhaps, as we see a total of 146.5 put on the board. Why so high? Well, Eastern Washington, surprise surprise, has been one of the most lethal offensive teams in the nation. As crazy as it sounds, the Eagles are averaging 85.0 points per contest.
Washington Huskies
The Huskies are sitting pretty at 7-0 overall this season. They haven't had the most difficult of schedules, but that being said, they did manage an outstanding win over San Diego State in their most recent taste of action.
Points were extremely hard to come by against the Aztecs, but ultimately Washington stood form to win 49-36. They were all over San Diego State, holding their ranked foes to an unheard of 20.4 percent from the floor. That's as low of a field goal percentage as we've seen in quite some time.
For Washington, Andrew Andrews and Nigel Williams-Goss were the main guys, as they combined for 28 of the team's 49 points. It didn't matter that the Huskies shot a mere 37.5 percent from the field, considering San Diego State wasn't hitting anything at all. So while it wasn't the prettiest of victories, you have to give a lot of credit to the Huskies for making life difficult.
Washington has only played three games at home and they've had little trouble thus far. Their defense has been what's guided them to the spotless 7-0 record, and it's sure going to be tested to its limit by the visiting Eagles tonight.
Eastern Washington Eagles
You may not know much about the Eagles, so let us help you a bit.
This team has proven to be quite a handful so far this season. Eastern Washington is 8-1 on the year, with the team's one loss coming to a then-ranked SMU team on the road. The Eagles' best win came over Indiana on the road a couple days after that one defeat to the Mustangs.
It's proven tough to stop this Eastern Washington offense from enforcing its will. That's because the tandem of Venky Jois and Tyler Harvey has been fantastic all season long. Jois is averaging 21.1 PPG and 8.4 RPG on the year, while Harvey has been good for 20.4 PPG, 3.9 RPG and 3.7 APG. Throw in Ognjen Miljkovic, who's going for 13.3 PPG, and you can see why this team has been performing so well.
Can the Eagles keep it going in a very tough matchup with the Huskies? Only time will tell for this one-loss Eastern Washington squad.
NCAA Basketball Pick
It's hard to find much fault in Washington's start to their campaign, especially since they've already earned a double-digit win over a strong San Diego State program.
Nonetheless, we really like what Eastern Washington has done as well, and we think they'll be able to make life difficult on the home team in this spot. It's a very interesting clash of styles here, with a top offense going up against a formidable defense, which tends to make it tricky to decipher the best value.
With two guys in Jois and Harvey that can score seemingly at will, we look for the Eagles to be worth backing with your NCAA basketball picks. It's going to take a lot to win straight up against these undefeated Huskies, but Eastern Washington should be able to notch a cover as significant dogs.
NCAA Basketball Pick: Eastern Washington Eagles +8

Are you suffering from plantar fasciitis and haven't been able to find an effective solution? Is your quality of life affected by this condition? Is moderate exercise or even walking painful?
If your answer is yes to any or all three of these questions, getting orthotics for plantar fasciitis could be the solution you need to treat the debilitating condition. By relieving the stress and torque on your plantar fascia when you stand or walk, insole treatment is essential to decreasing your pain. Unless custom made, orthotics don't require a prescription and can be bought even for those who have self-diagnosed themselves with the ailment.
What Symptoms Advocate for the Use of Orthotics?
While a doctor is the best person to diagnose you with plantar fasciitis, if you are looking to save money, there are some tell tale signs that indicate the presence of the ailment and warrant you getting orthotics for plantar fasciitis.
When exercising, if you notice a sharp pain radiating from the sole or arch of your foot, you may be suffering from strained plantar fascia. Some patients report this pain is worse in the morning. The presence of heel tenderness or sensitivity along the length of your foot arch is another common symptom, but keep in mind that if your entire heel is painful to the touch, you could have a stress fracture or small bone tumor. The most likely cause for any of these symptoms though is plantar fasciitis.
Do You Actually Need Them?
Although this decision is, in the end, a personal preference, most doctors recommend getting orthotics for plantar fasciitis. Every step you take puts pressure on the arch of your foot and further strains the plantar fascia tissue. Unless you remain sedentary until it heels, you will need to find some way to relieve this pressure, and orthotics are the best way to do so. While relief is not immediate and may take a few days, you will slowly appreciate the additional cushioning and comfort that inserts offer.
It is also advisable to wear the shoes and inserts as much as possible when standing or moving— even while in the home. Some people with the condition even purchase two sets of inserts so that one can stay in their regular shoes for shopping or outdoor activities, while another remains in slippers or shoes only for home use.
Custom-made Orthotics
If you and your doctor jointly decide that your plantar fasciitis is deserving of custom-made insoles, you will first need a prescription. While getting orthotics for plantar fasciitis is never cheap, nonprescription insoles are less costly than molds specifically designed for your foot. It is always advised to try available commercial options though before investing in an expensive, custom device.
In order to make the shoe insert, a podiatrist or insole specialist will first take an impression of your foot with a plaster cast. This plaster will then be used as a mold and filled with rubber, gel, foam or any other shock-absorbing material catered to your precise issue and area of pain. Other options like additional cushioning in certain areas or a heel lift to increase arch support will be recommended and implemented by your doctor.
Another reason to invest in custom-made orthotics is if you have an unusually shaped foot or an uncommon problem.

How Optimizing Your Site For Search Engines Can Make Your Business More SuccessfulImproving a website's search engine results ranking has a direct impact on the overall success of a website. Any experienced webmaster is aware of this fact and optimizes sites accordingly. No matter your level of experience, you can always find new ways to improve your site's search ranking. The tips below will help you achieve that.
To start, make sure you fully understand the concept of search engine optimization. It would be nice if people ranked pages and not computers. Instead, search engines perform this task through a complex system of number-crunching and algorithms. SEO is a way to use these formulas to boost your website.
There are several ways in which a search engine finds and ranks your site. For instance, the presence of certain keywords in your content and titles will help determine how relevant your website is. Sites that are most updated and visited are searched as well.
Patience is a skill that must be used when you are working on achieving a higher ranking in the search engines. You can increase your rankings by optimizing things in your website, such as your layout, content and keywords. Try to incorporate lots of keywords in your site throughout the main Learn More text, titles and headings. This will show all of the search engines the relevance of your site to those keywords.
Higher search engine ratings cannot be purchased directly. However, companies can pay to have their site featured in a certain space. These placements are usually limited to about three. Larger corporation seem to be the only ones that can pay for this service.
Optimizing your site without using phrases or keywords can be achieved. For example, establishing links with other websites can boost your ranking. You can always swap links with other websites.
Target visitors are people who you expect to be potential customers once they find your website. It is common for websites to have visitors who are not interested in the service, but this will not help your business. For instance, if your customers are teenagers, you will not get any purchases from them if you are selling anti-wrinkle remedies. Optimize your search terms and phrases by tailoring them to match your target visitors.
Today every company has to have a website. This is particularly true for businesses that operate entirely over the internet. In these cases, it is not only important, but also mandatory. In addition, every business should take steps to make sure that its individual website is capable of attracting many visitors. This article provides you with tips to enhance your website's structure, design and content for maximum visibility and increased traffic.

The Kwara State Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC) has hailed the decision of the Lagos State Government to challenge the discharge and acquittal of Major Hamza al-Mustapha, the former Chief Security Officer (CSO) to late Head of State, General Sani Abacha, at the Supreme Court.
al-Mustapha had been on trial for about 15 years for the murder of Alhaja Kudirat Abiola, the wife of the acclaimed winner of June 12, 1993 presidential elections, Bashorun Moshood Abiola.
A Court of Appeal, sitting in Lagos, last month discharged and acquitted the former CSO of the murder.
The OPC described al-Mustapha's freedom as politically-motivated.
It noted that the case portends grave danger to the country.
The State OPC Coordinator Salam M. Olanrewaju said the steps taken by the Lagos State Government were in the right direction.
Olanrewaju said: "In any country where rope is used tie an elephant is unsafe for human habitation. If a court, which has been referred to as the last hope of the common man, has now become an instrument for the manipulation of politicians, then that country is heading towards a disaster.
"If a personality like Alhaja Kudirat Abiola could be murdered in cold blood and the perpetrators are not brought to justice, then something is wrong with our judicial system. It further shows that the entire country needs to be restructured.
"The decision of the Lagos State Government to challenge the Appellate Court's ruling renews the hope of the common man and good citizens of Nigeria to believe in equity and justice."
The OPC leader alleged that al-Mustapha's release was aimed at enabling the Goodluck Jonathan administration to curry the support of the northerners for the 2015 general elections.

John Singleton brings LA's '80s drug scene to life on FX.
Twenty-six years ago, director John Singleton exposed the world to the realities of South Central Los Angeles with his Oscarnominated film Boyz n the Hood—a tale of three African American boys plagued by gang violence and the overflow of cheap crack cocaine. Now Singleton, 49, returns to the not-so-small screen with Snowfall, which premiers July 5, to follow the rise of the crack epidemic in the early '80s that changed Los Angeles into an urban war zone.
In what ways is Snowfall autobiographical?
"Being from Los Angeles, my life changed in the early '80s when the crack game started. This show is like the prequel to Boyz n the Hood. It shows a time when people didn't have bars on their windows. Then things started to get crazy. Gangs began taking over selling crack in different territories. It turned into a deadly war over money."
How is the process for TV different from film?
"With television shows you have to find actors who people want to watch over and over again. I hold the same standard for directing television as I do my films. I want this to be the ghetto Game of Thrones because everyone loves re-watching the episodes of that show." How did you make the show as authentic as possible?
"We talked to so many different people from the community who lived during that era. And I myself was a huge resource for this project! I focused on what outfits people wore then, what shoes, and especially what music they listened to. At that time, hip hop was only on the East Coast, and Los Angeles was into soul—we were listening to the Gap Band and Chaka Khan. I tried my hardest to keep it as accurate as possible."
Tell us about some of the characters.
"I wanted to show that what happened to LA was broad and affected many people—not just the black community. We have a white guy who is a CIA agent, a Mexican wrestler who is an immigrant but still trying to find his way, and a young black boy who is bussed to school in the Valley, where he eventually learns how to sell crack. All of these characters were greatly changed by all this, and it's great that we get to see their stories."
How would you sum up the show?
"I hope the experience will be like when someone first sniffs cocaine. I want viewers to become as addicted to it as soon as possible… Seriously, it's going to be like nothing anybody has ever seen before."

Mice Open Window to Flagstaff History
Mural Mice artists R.E. Wall and Margaret Dewar had been painting a mural in the Flagstaff Convention & Visitors Bureau, A.K.A. the Milligan House, for two months. The vision for the mural called for resident ghost Mabel Milligan to head upstairs to her chambers. An unusual gallery greets her at the top of the stairs where a window to January 1st 1916 has been left open. Because of all the paranormal energy afoot; the roof was removed to reflect eternity in the form of stars above.
With Marketing Director Trace Ward at the helm and CVB staff gently stepping through the mess on the steps, the Mice took the house ghost vision to the next level, making it the newest attraction for the Flagstaff Haunted Places tour. Located on 323 W. Aspen Ave.

As expected, Apple has rolled out an iMac update that brings Intel's Sandy Bridge CPUs to the all-in-one desktop line. Quad-core processors have been deployed across the board, starting with a 2.5GHz Core i5 in the base 21.5" system. Apple doesn't list model numbers for the CPUs, but you can upgrade the 21.5" to a faster Core i5 or a Core i7. Similar upgrade options are available for the 27" iMac, which starts with a 2.7GHz Core i5.
Sandy Bridge has surprisingly competent integrated graphics, but Apple has instead gone the discrete route with a collection of Radeon GPUs. The Radeon HD 6750M and 6770M are the only options available with the 21.5" iMac, while the larger model can be configured with a potent Radeon HD 6970M with either 1GB or 2GB of memory. Serious Mac gamers (all three of them) would do well to consider the 2GB upgrade given the 27-incher's 2560x1440 display resolution. The Radeon HD 6700 series should be adequate for everyone else, especially given the fact that the 21.5" model's display maxes out at 1080p.
In addition to CPU and GPU upgrades, Apple has added Thunderbold connectivity to the new iMacs. There are dual Thunderbolt ports at the rear of the 27-incher and just one tucked behind the 21.5" model. Forgive my lack of enthusiasm. Thunderbolt peripherals are still rare in the wild, while USB 3.0 storage devices are relatively cheap, readily available, and certainly not bottlenecked by the latest USB interface. The new iMacs eschew SuperSpeed USB connectivity completely, and they only have four old-school USB ports. Apple has, however, added a 720p webcam for hi-def FaceTime calls and Chatroulette sessions.
Rumors of a cheaper iMac with a new panel size failed to bear fruit in this update. The base iMac still starts at $1,199, and you'll have to pony up $1,699 to get into 27" territory.

Retail spending consists of about 40% of total personal consumption expenditures, while personal consumption expenditures account for about two-thirds of total spending in the economy. This means that total retail spending accounts for about one-third of all spending (GDP) and thus is an important indicator of the strength of the economy.
The retail spending report is backward looking and shows what consumers have done in the previous month. Yet, this information, together with information on consumer confidence and employment changes should allow reasonable deductions regarding the future of retail activity. It is also worth noting that the report contains end-of-month inventories, which are important indicators of pending shortages or surpluses.
While personal income is the major source of retail spending, consumer credit, especially non-revolving credit (home mortgages), has played a significant roll in keeping consumer spending from slowing recently.
Monthly Advanced Retail Trade Survey
To gain the most information from this indicator, it is important to understand the nature of the retail trade survey itself. The U.S. Bureau of the Census, Retail Indicators Division, conducts a written survey of about 12,000 different retail businesses, with a subset of 4,000 of these queried about end-of-month inventories. The information is processed and a preliminary report (called the "Advanced" report or MARTS ) based upon a representative sample of some 5,000 firms is released about two weeks after the close of the month. This is the report that is given attention by the financial press because it is timely and has a short two-week lag from the end of the month.
The full report — the MRTS — is released about six weeks following the close of the month and contains revisions to the advanced report as well as the previous twelve months. In addition, there is an annual revision made the previous year as well as the past thirteen years. In spite of the many revisions made to this series, some of which can be significant, the data is timely and is used to estimate personal consumption expenditures (part of Gross Domestic Product), consumer price level changes, and productivity measures in the economy.
A significant aspect of this survey is the industry detail it provides. Since there is some volatility in this series, usually associated with auto sales, the series is reported both with and without auto sales. Because of this volatility it is best to view any trends in spending in the context of a three-month moving average.
The reported results are adjusted for seasonal variation, differences in holiday dates, as well as differences in the number of trading days available.
A final caution to interpretation of the data is that the survey does not include service sector spending (healthcare, education, recreation, etc.), which accounts for some 55% to 60% of total personal consumption spending. In spite of this omission, the trends are viewed as representative of total retail spending.
Price level changes not measured
An important limitation of this data is the fact that there are no adjustments made for price level changes. Retail sales are reported in current dollars. When prices in any one sector are moving up rapidly, the reported increases in retail sales may not reflect an increase in physical volume of sales but some combination of volume increases and higher prices.
For example, gasoline sales were up in October by 27% over October 2004, but this change contains a combination of both price and volume increases. To accurately gauge the change in real retail sales, adjustment for price level changes must be made.
Consumer credit and retail spending
While disposable personal income is the primary source of consumer spending, consumers can increase their consumption expenditures through the use of credit. The two primary types of consumer credit are revolving credit and nonrevolving credit. Revolving credit includes credit card debt and store charge accounts and amounts to about 43% of total consumer credit debt. Nonrevolving debt includes auto loans, personal loans and loans for recreational vehicles. Changes in the amount of revolving and nonrevolving debt are reported monthly (a five week lag) by the Federal Reserve Board (www.federalreserve.gov) in a report titled Consumer Credit.
The use of mortgage refinancing in recent years to reduce record levels of revolving credit has made it important to broaden the examination of consumer finances. With record low interest rates on home mortgages, many consumers refinanced their homes in the last five years, used a portion of the proceeds to pay off revolving credit (credit cards) and a portion to supplement their consumption habits. In short, consumers have been replacing revolving credit debt with mortgage debt.
To gauge the impact of this activity on the consumer, the Federal Reserve Board issues a quarterly report titled Household Debt Service and Financial Obligations Ratios. An accompanying chart to this week's column shows that the debt service to disposable income has reached record levels in 2005, topping 13% of disposable income.
With both mortgages and credit cards having variable interest rates, it is possible that if interest rates continue to increase in the next year debt services will take a larger bite out of disposable income and impact retail spending.
Watching for what?
When there are rapid price level changes in one sector, look for declines in other sectors as consumers adjust their spending to reflect the drop in real incomes.
Indeed, one of the fears of rising gasoline prices is that it will derail retail spending in other areas of the economy and potentially result in a slowing of the overall economy. This can be mitigated by rising hourly wages, increasing employment, falling savings rates or increasing consumer credit.
The key to understanding where retail spending is headed is understanding consumers' overall financial situation and their attitude toward the economic future.
Next time, we'll take a look at imports, exports and the related numbers that matter to the overall economic picture.

Wrap up: CIAF 2016July 28, 2016
The van was a little lighter on the way back to sunny Townsville when we returned from CIAF2016. That's because we sold a few prints and masks at this year's indigenous art fair! The clear winner to us was the masks by our indigenous members made in a workshop led by Obery Sambo. They attracted so many visitors to our walls for a deeper look. Children and adults enjoyed them alike! We bumped into colleagues from other galleries, and the Australia Council CEO Tony Grybowski and Visual Arts Director Laura McLeod.
We shared a section with our good friends from Umi Arts – the comradery getting us through the long days! Our artists in attendance were on hand to share their stories with the visitors and media. A big thank you goes out to the CIAF Staff, the Tanks Install team, and our artists and other partners for playing a part in this great event.

Sicilian authorities have refused to pay Italy's "baby bonus" to the youngest daughter of jailed Mafia boss Toto Riina, 36-year-old Lucia.
Salvatore "Toto" Riina, former boss of the notorious Cosa Nostra, was jailed in 1993 and now has terminal cancer.
Italy's top court ruled this month that he had a right to "die with dignity" under house arrest but there were protests and he may not be let out.
A parole board will have to decide in the northern city of Bologna, where 86-year-old Riina is in jail for his role in dozens of Cosa Nostra murders.
Two anti-Mafia judges - Giovanni Falcone and Paolo Borsellino - were killed in 1992, in Riina's "war against the state".
Corleone was the hometown of the fictional "Godfather" in Francis Ford Coppola's blockbuster films.
Lucia and her mother are the only Riina family members still living in the town, which is run by special commissioners because the previous administration was found to have Mafia connections.
The baby bonus is an allowance paid to poor families in Italy - €160 (£140; $180) a month for those with income not exceeding €7,000 a year, and €80 a month for those earning no more than €25,000.
The Corleone authorities said Lucia had put in an incomplete claim for the bonus. Her husband Vincenzo Bellomo had submitted a new claim, but the deadline had expired.
The monthly allowance covers a baby's first three years.
