CCAMS
Centralised code assignment and management system
Powering out efficient SSR code allocations service.
We optimise the efficiency of European Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) code management by centrally selecting code for each flight within its area of applicability using an intelligent algorithm and distributing it to the appropriate ATS unit. Our system is implemented in 20 States.
Our collaborative Centralised Code Assignment & Management System (CCAMS) is the most efficient way to use Mode 3/A codes within the European network. It uses available flight plan data to assign Secondary Surveillance Radar (SSR) codes to flights at the time they are actually required, using an intelligent algorithm, rather than using the current inflexible and static code allocation to States.
CCAMS is a collaborative system for the most efficient use of Mode 3/A codes in the European network. It provides:
efficient management of SSR codes;
maximum retention of a code;
reduction of code conflicts;
flexibility to match future demands;
SSR codes for special events and military exercises.
CCAMS consists of a central server located at EUROCONTROL's premises. It provides a unique code for general air traffic operating in the region. This server:
automatically selects and sends a code to all the units along the flight's route, based on the information available from other NM systems;
responds to code requests received from air traffic control (ATC) units;
ensures a code conflict-free trajectory for the flight, allowing the code to be retained in the CCAMS area;
monitors code use to ensure safe and efficient operations.
Centralised code assignment and management system (CCAMS) User Manual
Centralised code assignment and management system (CCAMS) Contingency Plan
Since the mid-1990s, individual States have been forecasting potential shortages in their allocation of SSR codes to meet the forecast growth in air traffic.
Until now, changes to the ORCAM rules, FDPS (Flight Data Processing System) functionality upgrades, and close coordination between States, have ensured that no major safety or capacity issues would arise routinely.
Increasingly since 2000, ORCAM States have been raising serious concerns about their ability to meet future demand using the existing SSR code management methodology, for several reasons:
the basis of ORCAM are the traffic flows and Participating Areas (PA) structure;
the geo-political map of Europe changed;
new States needed to have SSR codes allotted to them;
the use of secondary radar in neighbouring ICAO regions, such as Africa and Mid-Asia, is leading to more limitations in code usage;
the levels of air traffic have risen considerably over the last decade and forecasts indicate that the level of traffic will continue to increase significantly;
the instances of SSR code conflicts are increasing and are suffered by many of the ORCAM States.
Implementation project
The Provisional Council of EUROCONTROL approved CCAMS at its 26th Session in November 2006. EUROCONTROL set up a project for the development and the implementation of CCAMS as a pan-European solution to overcome the shortages of the SSR codes used by air traffic control (ATC) for radar services. Currently, implementation is planned in 20 States.
ICAO Paris has recognised CCAMS as the short- to medium-term solution to code shortages, as have military aviation, industry and airspace user organisations in their respective high-level working arrangements.
CCAMS User Group (CUG) members, nominated by air navigation service providers (ANSPs), coordinate activities locally and ensure that local systems are adapted in time. They are also responsible for developing procedures for implementing CCAMS.

Is Light Slowing Down?
The speed of light is a universal constant — or is it? Some evidence seems to suggest it might actually be slowing down. Will we soon have to revise our cosmological beliefs?
A New Twist to Optical Detectors
A new arrival in the family of optical detectors gives a new twist to the detection of the orbital angular momentum of light. This could make classical and quantum optical communications even easier.
Quantum Randomness on a Chip
Online banking, e-commerce and data protection are currently secured by pseudo-random numbers which could, eventually, one day be cracked due to the fact that they are not truly random. A new approach based on quantum optics may soon allow for safer operations by efficiently generating truly random numbers.
How to generate random numbers. The setup toggles between two complementary fringe patterns (heads or tails). The center (white line) will coincide with a minimum or maximum of the pattern, which can be interpreted as a random 0 or 1. Image: Alireza Marandi, Stanford University.

Heads or tails? The result of flipping a coin can appear random because we are not able to control what side the coin will land on. This is random enough for everyday use, but not inherently random. Scientists have long been looking for ways to create truly random number generators based on the only area of physics in which randomness genuinely exists: quantum physics. While current experimental setups remain relatively slow, large, and expensive, a new approach proposed by Alireza Marandi, from Stanford University (California, USA) and collaborators may soon produce fast, cheap random number generators on a simple chip, which could then be integrated in a laptop or tablet for high-security applications such as internet banking, more efficient statistical sampling, and ever increasing levels of security in games of chance.
In today's world, random numbers take center stage in many areas of our daily lives, and more so since the advent of online commerce and banking. Put simply, the codes we use to secure these services rely on the fact that a potential adversary cannot predict said numbers. Thus, whenever we need to reveal our credit card information or bank account number, random numbers are used to encrypt this information, and to prevent criminals from obtaining it.
"Actually, most 'random numbers' appear 'random' because of the convoluted algorithms used to produce them. Strictly speaking, these are deterministic algorithms, and after some large number of iterations they (the pseudo-random numbers) will show cyclic repetitions," Boris Zeldovich [1], from CREOL at the University of Central Florida (USA) says. Security when dealing with large data volumes is therefore reduced. Moreover, two identical conventional random number generators can be synchronized to predict a random number sequence, as Yoon-Ho Kim [2] from the Pohang University of Science & Technology (South Korea) explains, but synchronization would be impossible with a genuine random number generator.
How can truly random numbers be generated, then? As it turns out, quantum physics offers a solution. Countless experiments indicate that a quantum system that has to choose between one of two states does so completely randomly. This probabilistic aspect of quantum physics is in stark contrast with the deterministic nature of classical physics. Not surprisingly, it has taken a long time for the scientific community to fully embrace the inherent randomness of quantum physics.
Marandi's experiment shows how to exploit quantum randomness in an otherwise classical system. "Intuitively speaking," he says, "we gradually start generating photons while forcing them to decide between heads or tails. Then, we amplify them to the point where we can treat them with conventional, classical optics. This means we can avoid the usual complicated quantum setup, and it clears the way towards high-speed, cheap, and on-chip truly random numbers." Concretely, Marandi and his team use a crystal that converts one photon into two photons of double the original wavelength. During this conversion, they are able to make these photons choose between one of two possible states — heads or tails. Once the resulting photons have been amplified beyond the point where quantum physics is necessary, conventional classical optics can be used, and the need to use cumbersome quantum techniques avoided.
"The biggest advantage of our setup is its conceptual simplicity," Marandi says. Because of this, he expects that it will soon be possible to put his setup onto a single chip, which could then be used in security and statistical devices.
"The idea by Marandi, Leindecker, Vodopyanov, and Byer is really extremely nice and beautiful," Zeldovich summarizes. "Good ways to generate random numbers are becoming more and more important," Kim adds. "The bit-rate reported in this work (theoretically up to Giga-bits per second) is quite impressive," he concludes, envisioning possible uses that could range from enhancing quantum cryptography to affording greater safety in Las Vegas casinos.

445nm Lasers
Battery Powered Labby, Mark II
Thread starter brianpe
brianpe
A while ago I built a battery powered lab laser (Battery Powered Labby). It was a fun project but beam quality wasn't that good and I there were some changes I wanted to make to the control electronics.
Meet Labby 2:
Test Firing
Test firing @ 4% power. Just at the threshold of lasing.
Changes from Labby 1:
Extra 2X cylindrical lens mounted back to back with 6X. Hugely improves beam shape.
Cylindrical lenses mounted on custom 3D printed mounts.
Larger heat sinks for better run time.
Much safer electronics. Impossible to turn key switch on and find laser was left 'on'.
Battery built-in, built in charger.
Temperature monitoring of diodes, with bar graph on front display.
Display can show percentage, amps going to diodes, or estimated output power.
Smarter diode selection, so lower powers only use one diode. Selectable selection modes including a "maximize runtime" mode that runs one diode at a time and chooses the coolest diode every few seconds.
The extra cylindrical lens (courtesy of This Post from Milos) makes a huge difference. The spot is a crisp square about .25" on a side after 20'. Just in case I also added threads for a SanWu 3x beam expander. By the way, SanWu says the threads on their beam expander are 11.4mm x .5mm. They aren't lying, but a tap for that seems impossible to find. I ended up drilling an 11mm hole, soft tapping it with a 11mm tap, and then forcing the stainless shaft of the expander in to make threads in aluminum. I'm not proud of it, but it screws on nice. With the expander mounted I can focus down to about 1/8", which is a tiny space to stuff 12 watts of photons. It burned through four layers of corrugated cardboard from 20' away without the expander on it, so I don't know if I'll use it often.
Thanks all to the great feedback from my first labby - I used a lot of it when designing this laser.
Labby 2 runs for about 3 minutes on full power before it gives a max temperature warning and takes about 2.5 minutes to completely cool back down. It always starts at 0% with the fire switch off when you turn on the key so there are no surprises. It still runs each NUBM44 at 5.5 amps, which is a little more than they want, but I rarely turn it all the way up. It uses a 8000mah RC car LiPo battery (Amazon link here) and can recharge it at four amps, so it doesn't take too long to fill it up when empty. It does not, however, fit in my pocket.
Edit: I was lacking describing the electronics, so here's an update (I've also attached the schematic to the gallery):
Power to everything is controlled by a 100A mosfet. This way the key switch doesn't have to handle the current to the laser drivers, and also allows me to power up the board when the charger is attached. I'm using an Adafruit Pro Trinket for processing and maxed out all the IO lines on the processor. It knows when the charger is attached, temps to both diodes, PWM control to both diodes, drives the display through I2C and has inputs for the encoder and fire buttons. PWM and power is sent to dual BlackBuck8 drivers preset to a max of 5.5A.
Pressing in on the encoder enables a menu mode where you can choose the display style (%, amperage to diodes or calculated power output) and diode settings (auto - drive one diode till we hit 40% power, then start driving both, each laser independently, both lasers, or run whichever laser has the lowest temp).
I grabbed temperature data off the NTM sensors on the diodes with my last labby but had to actually cut the pins to the processor because it was preventing laser startup. This turns out to be because the processors analog inputs have a 10k impedance, and was causing the BlackBuck to think the lasers were over temp. I now buffer the NTM voltage through op amps.
The display is 3V logic, so I chose a 3V processor. The PWM inputs to the BlackBuck require 5V, however, so there is a level shifter to shift the signal up to 5V. I'm not terribly happy with this. First, when then CPU is resetting the outputs are all high impedance which the level shifter interprets as a "high". Result: Reboot the processor and both lasers turn on. Bad. I worked around this by controlling the enable pin of the 5V regulator by the processor so I don't even enable outputs until I'm ready. But there is also some low voltage noise on the outputs. It's small, and would never be seen as a "1" to logic, but the BlackBucks do see this is an analog signal. The result is that even at 0% power, as long as that 5V regulator is enabled the lasers have a small amount of glow (way below threshold). I didn't notice this till very late -- it's totally invisible when you're wearing goggles. I worked around this in software. I only enable 5V when the laser is firing.
LiPo charging is handled through a Linear 4002 LiPo charging IC. I originally chose a different IC but I bit off more than my newbie SMD skills could handle. Here's the original chip:
My first Lipo charger proved too much for me to solder correctly. Tiny pins, all under the...
The 4002 requires an external mosfet but was a slightly better form factor for me. I added a good copper pour to heat sink the mosfet and used an external heat sink glued to it since my prototype melted its solder joints! So far it has been working fine but it's a constant worry for me. The mosfet does get hot. It's switching at 500Khz.

Cool! Looks very well built, definitely an improvement to the original. I would've liked to see more explanation on the electronics side, especially the interface, but I'm not complaining.
Other members have had problems with the Sanwu beam expander threads in the past as well. It appears they use either their own thread measurements or at least a very uncommon one. Unfortunately like you said buying a tap is difficult to find/very expensive so sometimes you just have to macgyver your own solution.
How do you find the 8Ah battery? Didn't see much of it in your write-up.

Rich " Lifetime17 " had a tap made. He can make a threaded adaptor to your liking, has made several for me.

is it possible to cut an M11*0,5mm tread on the sanwu beam Expander? (is there enough material for a down size?)
I orderd a beam Expander yesterday and i have the 11*0,5 mm cutter in my Hobby room.
I do not like this Special threads. I also noticed, that the DTR copper moduls in 20 mm have a 17,83mm * 0,5mm thread, very Special.
reloader45 said:
There is a decent amount of material thickness on the threaded part so you may have some luck re-threading it. If I were to try this I think I'd turn down a rod to exactly match the inside diameter before trying to turn down the barrel to the right diameter for an 11mm thread. That will hopefully prevent the wall from collapsing. Chucking it up in a lathe might be tricky without damaging the threads on the other end of it though, unless you can build a threaded adapter for that side (which I'm sure is also a a special thread).
i will see what to do, when the beam expander arrives. Maybe it is easier to modify my homemade heatsinks to 11,4*0,5 mm. With the wright tap, it would be the way to go.
On the other side, it is easy to make an outside thread with the lathe. And going from 11,4 mm to 11,0 mm is only a short trip.

Regarding DTR's 20mm modules, they are most likely an 18mm x 0.5mm thread; the OD of a threaded part is most always smaller than the nominal size (20mm), a size for size fit would be very tight, and the threads would be sharp and nasty looking.
The 0.17 smaller size is a bit much for such a fine pitch though.
sorry, I checked the DTR modul again. The tread is between 16,83 mm and 16,9 mm. So it will be a 17*0,5 mm thread. That is not so exotic.

LAPD report pushes for women in SWAT
By Rachel Uranga | ruranga@scng.com | Daily Breeze
March 19, 2008 at 12:00 a.m.
LAPD Chief William Bratton refused Tuesday to divulge findings of an independent report that calls for changes in the department's elite SWAT team, including altering the unit's selection process to make it more open to women.
Though the report – called for by Bratton himself – has not been released, several SWAT officers expressed anger over what they say is a loosening of standards.
And at least one of their wives has sent e-mails to Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, the civilian Police Commission and City Attorney Rocky Delgadillo to protest the changes in the selection process.
Bratton would not confirm any of the details of the findings, first reported in the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday, saying they are confidential and would be presented to the commission within two to three weeks.
"I have no obligation to share it with you," Bratton told a group of reporters. "It's a confidential report."
He pointed out that many of the recommendations had already been implemented and said he would like to see women on SWAT.
"I would like to see women in every part of the Los Angeles Police Department and fully expect that we will see women on the SWAT unit," he said. "We have women fighting in our armed forces in Iraq, we have women in every other walk of life, and women will in fact have the opportunity in this department to serve in any capacity. I am committed to that."
The Times reported that the panel was critical of SWAT for relying too heavily on force instead of negotiation and called for tighter supervision. It also called for changes to make the unit more open to women – a recommendation that has irked many in SWAT.
"It's very disheartening. We are very concerned about the future of SWAT," said one SWAT officer who declined to be named. "But we will move on and do what the chief wants for whatever his political reason. … But we have great concern for ourselves and the citizens and Los Angeles."
Bratton convened eight independent experts to look at the unit after SWAT officers killed 2-year-old Susie Pena during an August 2005 shootout in which her father used her as a human shield.
Formed after the Watts riots in 1965, the unit responds to hostage situations, standoffs and other highly intense situations.
Most recently, it came into public light after a gunman killed SWAT Officer Randal Simmons during an incident in the San Fernando Valley last month that left four others dead and another SWAT officer injured.
Last week, Assistant Chief Sharon Papa told the Police Commission the internal SWAT report had been given to Bratton around the beginning of the year. She said among the recommendations implemented were the addition of a second lieutenant and captain.
"It is widely believed this is an attempt to be politically correct and allow a female officer on the team," one of the SWAT wives wrote in an e-mail circulated to city officials. "We will not sit quietly by and allow you to compromise our husbands' safety."

Main News The Ukrainian PPGI and GI market shows steady growth for the second year in a row.
The Ukrainian PPGI and GI market shows steady growth for the second year in a row.
During the VI National Conference of Steel Construction, the Rauta Director, Andriy Ozeychuk, noted the increase in consumption of pre-painted galvanized iron in 2016-2017 by 45 and 8% respectively and steel with a zinc coating – by 18 and 5%.
According to Andriy Ozeychuk, 60% of the steel market with polymer coating in 2017 was imported from China, and a year earlier this figure was 55%. At the same time, the thickness of imported steel decreased: in 2017 steel imports in thicknesses 0.5-0.6 mm fell three times, while steel supplies of 0.4-0.5 mm increased 2.9 times.
Speaking about galvanized steel, Rauta Director noted that 79% of the market is presented by non-structural steel grade DX51 with non-guaranteed yield strength and 57% of the segment is products with a coating below 140 g/m2.
"Today we see a tendency to deterioration of the quality of rolled products with coatings, which reduces the durability of end-products made of such metal," said Andriy Ozeychuk. "While choosing roofs, facades, sandwich panels and LGSF, end-user should pay special attention to the quality characteristics of products, such as: thickness and grade of steel, level of galvanization, thickness and type of the polymer coating".
10.12.2017The sandwich panels market growth during 9 months 2017 was 14% – Andriy Ozeychuk.

Element X is a five piece independent hard rock band active since 2014. The band released their first E.P. called "The Prologue" in 2015 and have played many gigs around Ireland since then.
As of 2018, Element X are hard at work on writing material for their second studio release, and also keeping very active in the live rock/metal scene.
Element X is pure hard rock with a savage metal edge and a twist of alternative angst. They have made an impression on the musical world with their own unique spin of this melding of the powerhouse genres.
Let's start out with Full Throttle, and trust me it makes you take on the day with that kind of energy. This is the song you can see thousands of people getting into their cars, dreading the day of work or school that lies before them, then hearing this song come on, cranking up the volume and drumming on their steering wheel to the beat and singing at the top of their lungs. Of course that energy will carry on and you might end up slam dancing your way into your cubicle but at least the feelings of dread and lack of motivation are now but a distant memory. The vocal style is loud, powerful, and gritty, the guitar is fast and adrenaline pumping, finishing off the song is the hypnotic rhythm of the drum that becomes the heartbeat of the song. This song really sets the stage for one epic musical ride you are about to embark on.
Showing their artistic chops in a more sinister sound is the song Reaper Fire, it has the adrenaline pumping vibe you get throughout their album The Prologue but Reaper Fire starts out with this hypnotic guitar cadence to captivate you, leading you into a haunting and intense musical arrangement where once again the gritty vocals are the star of the show. It is not the same type of energy where you want to slam dance into your co workers, it's more of a brooding energy. Like you picture the evil madman sitting in his dungeon surrounded by darkness plotting what he is going to do to all those who have wronged him. The guitars enhance the story with their speed, riffs, and breakdowns, and the drums provide the strong heartbeat to the song. Each "character" of the band brings their usual intensity that you come to enjoy as you listen to the music but they certainly do not play the same character, there is a subtle variety where the songs sound cohesive rather than chaotic.
The song that displays the variety which I spoke of is You'll Always Be. It is a slower paced song but certainly not what I would consider a ballad. It is a brooding angsty energy of someone being wrong and singing their heart about what evil was done to them and singing to the person who did it. We have all dealt with a monster in our lives, in one way or another, so this is your anthem to release that pain and anger. Sometimes the monster needs to hear exactly what they did to you, not so they can change because honestly, do they ever change? But they need to hear that they can't break you, to set yourself free. You didn't deserve the pain and it was not you who caused that evil to be done to you. A monster is sometimes just a monster and likes to hurt others. Who knows, maybe after hearing this song, more people will take a moment for self reflection and make sure they are not the monster in which the song sings about and maybe a wave of change will come across society where people are more mindful of how their actions or words might hurt another soul. Back to the song, it starts out with the gut wrenching pain of being hurt, but then leads into this enchanting breakdown which is the moment of freedom where the guitars and drums are gently guiding you back to the light, then the vocals are commanding the dark to release you and allow you to return back to the serenity of the world and return the light back to your heart. I would have to say, personally speaking, this song is the most powerful on the album and my personal favorite. I love it when music is a release but also a self check tool to ensure we are not becoming the monster that hurt us in the beginning.

Buying Guide: Best sat nav 2014: which one is right for you?
Could the car sat nav boast the shortest lifespan of any technology yet? Surely our GPS-supporting phones are more than capable of handling our daily car sat nav needs?
Not so fast - there's still plenty of life left in dedicated devices. Apart from offering the kind of focus that is only available from a dedicated device, true sat navs offer proper mounting systems that aren't fiddly plastic nightmares and also pack voice options that entertain and inform.
That's not to say that you should leave your phone at home. Phone apps are catching up quickly, and they don't cost the earth either. In fact, some of the most interesting projects are only on phones right now.
So settle down, buckle up and get ready for a whizz around the current state of the sat nav industry. Here are the top 13 options to help you get from A to B, arranged in order of their market prices.
Are freebie apps really an alternative to premium navigation?
There's a variety of sat nav apps available for Android phones and tablets, and the great news is that on this platform there's absolutely no need to spend any money - the best ones are free.
Google Maps doesn't need much introduction, but surprisingly few have tried Navigation, its linked sat nav app. The driving guides offered by this tool are powerful and accurate, although we'll admit that some of the pronunciations can be clumsy.
You'll have to get used to constant updates, and the interplay between maps and navigation isn't always smooth, but it is free. And it does work. And those constant updates mean it performs well. Plus it takes into account live traffic data, so this app does better than many of the more expensive options at times.
But the real problem is that it requires a data connection. That's a major weakness for a turn-by-turn nav app. A premium alternative is the recently released TomTom app fro Android. It brings all the goodness of TomTom's market leading nav devices to ANdroid. But it's not yet compatible with HD handsets. Bummer.
With that in mind, the best current bet for Android is probably CoPilot Live Premium. It's competively priced at £19.99 for the UK & Ireland version and combines all the usual turn-by-turn niceties with ActiveTraffic and some social networking bells and whistles.
The iPhone has had some incredible sat nav apps since day one, but unfortunately they've tended to attract the kind of price tags that could secure you a dedicated device. Thankfully developers are picking up on the fact that there's a place for advert-supported apps too.
NavFree is just such an app, that offers up voice and screen navigation with the option to buy safety camera locations, different voices and additional maps for a mere £1.99. This app is only possible thanks to the work of the OpenStreetMap project, which we'll discuss in a moment.
The alternative with a much bigger up front fee is TomTom for iPhone. At £39.99 for UK & Ireland maps, it ain't exactly cheap. But you know you're getting one of the best nav solutions on the market with perhaps the best routing along with HD Traffic data and more.
Navigation has become a proper big boy's toy. All the major players including Google and Apple are at it. But mapping ain't easy and the stakes are high as Apple found when it ditched Google Maps in favour of its own flawed map app with the iPhone 5.
While all that was going on, Nokia has been trying to reboot its relevance as a smartphone maker and part of that effort is Nokia Here. Intriguingly, it's not just available on Nokia's swanky new Windows Phone 8 handsets. You can also download it for iPhone and Android. And it's free.
We're still getting to grips with how Nokia Here compares on different platforms. But the good news is that you can download map data to the handset. It also comes packed with funky online features like real-time traffic, public transport schedules, points of interest and more.
Admittedly, Nokia Here is more optimised as a general mapping app in the Google Maps mould. But it does have turn-by-turn navigation. It will be interesting to see how it develops.
If you don't get on with the previous apps for your particular smartphone, then it's worth checking out Skobbler's offering, which is available in both iOS and Android guises. This app may not boast all of the features you'll find on high-end sat nav devices, but it does pack a punch, thanks to the power of its underlying technology - OpenStreetMap.
Akin to Wikipedia, but for maps, OpenStreetMap enables you to correct any problems that you see in your journeys. It does mean that some areas are a little patchy, but you can add in information yourself to bring it up to date.
Binatone, as a brand, isn't as recognisable as some others. But even so, the company has put in plenty of years propping up the budget end of the sat nav market. There's nothing obviously missing from the F350 when it comes to the core functionality of planning a route and keeping you on it.
It's true that the interface is a little crude, and the suction mount isn't as flexible as some, but it's surprisingly well designed and the package is certainly complete. The 3.5-inch display is clear, boasts 2D and 3D views and even comes with safety camera alerts. It also doesn't require a subscription.
The most affordable Navman, but is it worth your cash?
Navman is a much more recognisable name in the world of sat navs, and the EZY rolls in at only £10 more than the Binatone offering. The extra cash doesn't get you much more in the headline-grabbing specifications - both have 3.5-inch screens, 2D and 3D displays and simple mounting systems - but it's the subtleties that matter.
The lane guidance of the EZY is a welcome addition for this much money, as is the speed warning feature. This alerts you with a couple of beeps if you go over the current speed limit, and while the voice is a little fuzzy, this a great value package.
On the surface, this entry for Garmin doesn't seem too different from what has gone before, but there are a number of extras on offer here that lift it above previous Garmin Nuvi sat navs such as the Garmin Nuvi 3790T.
The big sell of the Garmin Nuvi 1200 is the inclusion of the ecoRoute software, which attempts to help you find the most fuel-efficient route for your journey and for your driving style. The ability to pinpoint your location and find all the local services around you make it an ideal companion for holidays. The inclusion of safety camera locations and speed limits warnings are also welcome.
At a penny under £70, the big excitement of the RAC 5000 is the fact that it boasts a 5-inch widescreen display at an incredibly low price. In fact, you'd have to look very hard to find a widescreen sat nav even vaguely in the same ballpark as this.
The obvious benefit of having more screen space is that you can see more of the roads around you, and get more information about your journey on that screen. The great value of the RAC 5000 extends to the free safety camera updates for life, as well.
TomTom overhauled its Start range last year, and this, the Start 20, received a good amount of love in the process. While this is a little more expensive than some of the budget offerings out there, the general feeling of quality is incredible. While it lacks some of the features you can find higher up the food chain, such as bluetooth connectivity and traffic jam updates, it does boast a solid interface and a clear, bright screen.
You also get detailed junction views and road names on your maps, and an impressive number of points of interest to peruse in your idle moments. Overall, this is the budget sat nav that defines the market.
The TomTom Start 60 Europe is easily one of the best sat navs we've reviewed. The large screen, clear navigation and accuracy of the maps makes it a joy to use. The voice navigation, complete with spoken street names, is calm and clear, and it's easy to switch to a different voice if you're not happy.
We did find the mounting a little fiddly, and would have prefered the power button to be allocated on the opposite edge to the mounting system, but you will get used to this with time. The camera warnings from the map share community need some fiddling with to get right as well, although again it isn't too difficult to get this right over time.
The Navman Panoramic has one clear advantage over its peers - its size. While cheaper sat navs wander around in 3.5-inch guise, and even mainstream widescreen models are a mere 5-inches, the Navman Panoramic is a huge 7-inches of GPS-powered joy. The touchscreen is bright and clear, and boasts large buttons for easy access.
You also get four different routing options for your journeys - ranging from the most economical to the fastest possible. The included car-mounting kit is incredibly versatile too, which means that despite the Panoramic's size, it won't obscure your view.
TomTom splits its sat nav lines into connected and non-connected models, with the Live 825 falling firmly into the first category. These Live devices are for those that drive a lot, and need the latest road and traffic information wherever they go. Beyond this difference, which incurs an annual subscription after the first year, the delta in features is actually quite slight.
Even so, for the target audience, where time wasted on out-of-date maps is money, knowing where there are traffic jams and speed cameras is worth paying for. Factor in the 5-inch widescreen display and the maps for the whole of Europe, and this isn't bad value at all.
Any standalone nav device has a tough time justifying itself in this age of apps. But near-£300 satnav? That's a very tall order.
The Garmin nuvi 3590LMT has a pretty good stab at it, however. It starts with ultra-slim smartphone aping propotions. The phone analogy extends further, too. Garmin has gone for a capacitive touchscreen where most nav devices use a resistive screen.
The result is one of the slickest and most responsive satnavs on the market. Elsewhere, the steep sticker price buys you UK and Euro maps with updates for life, Bluetooth and voice control. You'll have to pay extra for Live services, of course. But it was ever thus.
The TomTom Rider is a top sat-nav unit for a motorcyclist, works terrifically well and should be one of only a couple of options you consider if you're in the market for one. However, there are a couple of drawbacks. Firstly, there is no car charger or mount included, in contrast with its biggest rival, Garmin's Zumo350. This lessens the appeal of the overall buy slightly, as without spending extra on accessories, it's for bike only.
One day, car technology might put an end to just about all road accidents. But right now we're in a tricky phase where drivers are being bombarded with more and more features and functions. That's a major problem when it comes to driver distraction. It's never a good idea for to take your eyes off the road ahead, even to glance momentarily at your navigation screen. That's exactly where the new Garmin HUD comes in. It's a head-up display that's compatible with literally any car, no matter how new nor how old. The idea is that is delivers heads-up navigation cues along with other information including your current speed and time to destination so that you can keep your eyes forward and on the road.
Dedicated navigation devices have gone through something of a crisis of confidence. That's thanks to the rise of the smartphone. With almost everyone now toting smartphones with navigation ability, who needs a TomTom? For a while, it seemed like the answer was every more complex nav devices that mirrored the functionality of smartphones. But TomTom's latest have proved what a dead end that idea is. The real answer is to makes navs so good at actually being navigation devices, they're worth having as well as a smartphone. The TomTom Go 5000 does just that. It's very probably our favourite navigation device.
The TomTom Go 6000 is an impressive piece of kit. The interface is intuitive, with TomTom's excellent routing benefiting from being able to draw on live traffic data to make for incredibly accurate journey times as well. The fact that it includes lifetime map and journey updates for 45 countries in Europe make it all the sat nav you should ever need. We would have preferred to have the camera data include for free as well, but if mobile camera positions really are that important to you, then the £20 a year cost is probably good value. The screen is bright and clear and easy to see whatever the lighting outside, and the voices are clear and precise too. The new mounting system is solid, yet it's easy to remove the sat nav from its cradle if you need to. You can charge the sat nav from a standard micro-USB connector, if you're away from your car too, which adds to its flexibility.

NTN Bearing Corporation Celebrates 50 Years in America
Tweet 0 comments
Mt Prospect, IL, March 14, 2013 – NTN Bearing Corporation of America is proud to reflect back on its fifty years of success in the United States, providing world-class products to a wide variety of industries. Incorporated on this day in 1963 by Shungi Iishino and "Lucky" Itoh, the Japanese-based company opened its first corporate office in Lincolnwood, IL. Now, fifty years later, NTN Bearing Corporation of America continues the tradition of supplying top quality products, services and support to America's most prestigious companies.
"It's with a great sense of pride and humility that we look back to our roots. It was Mr. Iishino and Itoh's ability to 'Dream Big' that laid the groundwork for what has become an industry-leading organization. That same 'Dream Big' vision still drives us today as we look forward to continuing our growth into the next fifty years," states Pete Eich, NTN President and Executive Officer.
NTN quickly outgrew its Lincolnwood headquarters as its initial employment of twenty people expanded. A new facility was purchased in October 1971 and corporate offices and warehouses were consolidated under one roof in Des Plaines, IL. NTN moved again in May 1991 to a four-story office building in Mt Prospect, IL while keeping the Des Plaines facility as a warehouse.
Today, NTN employs over 4,000 people in the U.S. at its 10 manufacturing plants, 8 sales offices, 3 warehouses and one R&D center as U.S. sales approach $2 billion annually – a far cry from the initial 20-person operation in Lincolnwood.
The company plans to celebrate its anniversary with several functions this year tailored to both customers and employees.

Some people, either ignorant or malicious, ridicule the demands of several people to amend the curricula in public schools, especially since we have reached a most dangerous stage when it comes to molding the brains of the young in the belief the ministers of education are mostly liberals if are 'hands in glove' with the malicious and ignorant people. This simply means, in their view and their malicious tendencies, the curriculum is not bad and does not need any amendment or development, if not otherwise, these ministers, current and former would not hesitate to amend them.
I call them "malicious" because they know that it is difficult if not impossible for any minister of education, with respect for the majority of them, to touch the curriculum, and the religious education materials in particular, without the green light from the higher 'bodies' who were sometimes against amending even one word.
Faith in the unseen and its impact on life.
The qualities and rights of male and female angels.
Functions of angels in the world and the Hereafter.
In the section of the limitation of reason, the following points were presented: The mind is understanding, perception, science, the distinction between good and evil, and selfrestraint from undesirable things.
So the sane is the one who knows good and seeks it, and knows the evil and abandons it, and whoever does what harms him is like someone who has no mind, and the place of mind is the heart, and reason has strong relationship to the head by the powers of thinking.
The call to contemplate God's creation and to know the power of God.
Directing the mind to contemplate God's creation in the universe and to identify the secrets.
Directing the mind to contemplate the wisdom of the revelation to come to the legitimate rules.
Guide the mind to the mastery of the divine Sunnahs that take place in human life, such as the support of God to the believers and the destruction of the oppressors.
All this is good, of course, but where is the role of mind in the field of science and the development of solutions to the problems that encounter man from birth to death? Where is the role of reason in discoveries and inventions?
Where is the role of mind in the production of medicines, the discovery of vaccines, the invention of medical devices and the development of treatment in every field?
The didactic lesson, the objective and the conclusion of the curriculum is that the mind is limited in abilities, confused and unable to understanding the necessary knowledge is obvious.
Therefore, humans no matter the power of understanding and the reason and intelligence they have, they cannot use their minds according to the general organization for reforming the whole nation. I do not really know how a schoolboy or a schoolgirl at the age of eleven can know and understand such terms and lessons?
These are just a few examples and quick observations, where it is difficult to dive more in such a thorny issue.
Without distinctive and incentive education to encourage the learner to 'Critical Thinking', they will remain like animals with no minds and the examples are evident.

Blue Bell, Pennsylvania (BUSINESS WIRE)–Mitochon Pharmaceuticals today announced that it was awarded a grant from The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research (MJFF) to help develop its mitochondrial targeted compounds for treating Parkinson's disease. The funding will go to pivotal animal studies to assess the benefits of Mitochon's compounds in ameliorating the deficits associated with dopaminergic neuron loss, the hallmark of Parkinson's disease. If successful, Mitochon's compounds, MP101 ad MP201 could be in patients as early as 2019.
"We are delighted to receive funding from The Michael J. Fox Foundation, the preeminent institution in the field of Parkinson's research. By harnessing the power of the mitochondria, our compounds are able to protect cells from the destructive effects of age-related degeneration. Importantly, this funding will pave the way for human clinical development, with the hope of helping the millions of people with Parkinson's disease," said Robert Alonso, co-founder and CEO of Mitochon.
"Abnormalities in the mitochondrial processes can have severe consequences for the function and survival of dopamine neurons in people with PD," says Shalini Padmanabhan, PhD, Associate Director of Research Programs at MJFF. "The Foundation supports Mitochon's work toward discovery and development of mitochondrial-targeted therapies to speed breakthroughs for patients."
MP101 and MP201 are mitochondrial targeted, once-a-day, oral therapies that have been shown to shield cells from damage caused by a host of degenerative processes (genetic and non-genetic, auto-immune and injury). In preclinical studies, these compounds have exhibited striking protective and functional benefits in disease models. These include: brain volume sparing in Huntington's disease; axonal protection from demyelination in Multiple Sclerosis and dopaminergic neuron loss in Parkinson's disease. To understand the critical step of translation, Mitochon will initiate Phase I studies in normal healthy volunteers in 2018 and is expected to be in Phase II studies in 2019.
About The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research

Q: Solar powered LED light needs help I just got a outdoor solar powered LED lamp to illuminate our house number at night. It is supposed to charge up its battery during the day, and automatically turn the LED on at dusk. The problem I'm discovering is that the solar panel on this lamp doesn't get enough natural light to charge it so that it can power the LED even for a few hours at night. I like the light fixture well enough so I'm thinking of keeping it but giving it some help.
I have a door bell and opener circuit located under the lamp that runs off a transformer. I was thinking about giving the LED lamp some help from this circuit. Here are the specs for the LED lamp and the doorbell circuit:
LED lamp: SMD 5630 LED 0.5 W, 3.2V 1000mAh Li-ion battery
Doorbell transformer output: 16V AC 30VA (but I measure 18.25V AC at the output)
Would this be a complicated exercise? I have some soldering skills but I need help figuring out how to step down the voltage and amperage to feed the light from the doorbell. I'm assuming that with the proper step down I can wire in the power from the doorbell to the same place the little solar panel is attached to augment the same charging circuit in the light?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Back of PV and battery (blue and yellow wires from PV, blue and red from battery
Circuit board. The IC is labeled: 8182 4K154
During the day the battery charges from the PV, at dusk the LED switches on and is powered from Battery. Could I maintain the switching capability and just power the LED with appropriate 3.2V power supply? Will the PV be attempting to charge my power supply during the day?! I don't want to cut out the PV since it appears to be the dawn/dusk switch as well...

A: *

*Assuming 12h LED duration, current is ~156mA (0.5W/3.2V)

*thus 1900 mAh is needed (156mA*12h)

*you are getting a few hours with a 1000 mA LiPo battery charged only to 3.2V

*thus not getting full capacity of up to 6h (minus series losses from 3.7 to 3.2 or ~14% (0.5/3.7)

*

*If 16Vac Tfmr is unloaded, it is reading 14% higher due rated V at 86% efficiency.

*the transformer can supply <2A @30VA @16Vac only to a linear load and not to a bridge rectified battery but a series R  can make it more linear yet lossy with < 15% efficiency 3.5/24V in powering the LED.

*thus another wire pair from a full bridge diode at transformer or single wire to bridge and series R at load must be wired to charge the battery using current load for expected voltage R drop.

*Using 16Vdc avg to 3.2Vdc LEDs with up to 156mA

*with no PV, R=82 Ω drawing 2W (12.5*0.156A)

*however when LED is off, Vbat continues to charge up during day time with no overvoltage protection.

Thus you can leave LED on all the time, and choose a 5W resistor for cooler operation or buy a proper supply or add more complexity to regulate LiPo charger.
Unfortunately both your PV and storage battery are under-designed to meet the load requirements.

One simple solution is power the battery and LED from a 3.3V source such as tap into an ATX PSU with wire pair to series Sch. diode to LiPo, or buy one ~3.2Vdc >150mA wall supply to feed circuit.

A: I picked up a bunch of doorbell transformers (just for my junkbox) at $1 each, a while back. About the same as you describe. I'd probably use a bridge rectifier followed by a ripple capacitor to get the basic DC part done in preparation for an LM2596 buck converter. (You can get these for under a dollar on ebay, if you don't want a fancy voltage and current display, and they can easily handle your LED requirements. Most include potentiometers to use in setting the voltage and current limit, too.) Once you get the voltage into the right vicinity (say 5 V), you can then drop the rest of the voltage with a current limiting resistor in the usual way.
The first thing to do is to test your transformer under load. Just to make sure it works, mostly. I use one of those big 25 W resistors -- \$100\:\Omega\$ if you have one around? Load it down and see what it does. Chances are, it's fine though. But I like to know what the transformer does under load just to be sure.
But that's what I'd probably do (partly because I have a small box of buck converter boards laying around, too.)

A: Bare minimum, a diode ac full wave rectifier, maybe a step down regulator and a lipo charger circuit. The solar and battery part of the lamp is likely just a solar cell, a diode and the battery pack. Dumb and depends on the low output of the solar cell, matching the charged voltage of the battery.
The LED half has a LDR circuit as part of it that turns on automatically, so no extra modification is really needed. At that point though, you might as well ditch the solar cell and battery and directly wire it to the AC wire. Or run a wire for low voltage outdoor lighting which is often 12V DC.
Highly depends on the actual wiring and circuitry of your lamp.

General Viamonte est un partido de la province de Buenos Aires fondé en 1908 dont la capitale est Los Toldos.

Histoire
Il a été fondé sous le nom de Los Toldos le , avec des territoires des partidos de Lincoln, Nueve de Julio et Bragado.

Y sont concentrés des territoires qui avaient été concédés par la loi de 1866 aux aborigènes mapuches du cacique Ignacio Coliqueo . L'enracinement et la permanence de cette tribu explique la formation de ce département.

Le bourg s'est formé autour de la station ferroviaire "Estación Los Toldos" du chemin de fer Ouest, tracé en 1894 par Mariano Quintana, et a été désignié comme chef-lieu du partido, sous le même nom. L'un et l'autre ont été rebaptisés General Viamonte en 1910, mais pas la station ferroviaire qui a gardé le nom "Los Toldos".

Appellation
Le nom actuel de "Los Toldos" est un hommage au général Juan José Viamonte (1774 - 1843), héros de Suipacha, président du Congreso Nacional en 1819 et gouverneur de Buenos Aires de 1829 à 1833.

Aloë är en restaurang på Svartlösavägen 52 i stadsdelen Långbro i södra Stockholm.

Restaurangen öppnades 2015 av Daniel Höglander och Niclas Jönsson i en äldre konsumbyggnad i villaområdet. Jönsson hade ett förflutet på Lux och Bon Lloc och Höglander på Esperanto, Vassa Eggen och Operakällaren.
Restaurangen har plats för 35 gäster som serverars avsmakningsmenyer i lyxklassen. Aloë är latin för okänt ursprung. Enligt Höglander är namnet delvis valt för att inte säga något om den gastronomiska inriktningen, vilken kan beskrivas som en motreaktion mot den nynordiska trenden, med dess säsongsbundna och närproducerade råvaror.

Sedan 2017 driver man även den enklare systerkrogen Rinos bodega i samma fastighet.

Aloë belönades med en stjärna i prestigefyllda Guide Michelin 2018, vilket 2020 utökades till två
