Q: Reading multiple analog inputs in cRIO 9045 through LabVIEW RT We are currently running real-time simulations using CarSim software with the CarSim Solver for LabVIEW-RT package. The simulations are being run on a cRIO 9045 in which, in addition, we introduce two analog inputs that simulate a brake pedal (with a load cell) and a steering wheel (with a small potentiometer).
The image below shows the LabVIEW VI we are using for this. In the lower left part of the block diagram we perform the reading of the physical ports of the cRIO that we are using for the analog inputs. We use the DAQmx channel creation and reading blocks. Then we condition the signals obtained from the sensors before sending them as input to CarSim.
We are new to LabView and think that we are probably programming the data acquisition wrong, since cRIO should deal with it without any problem.

A: You are missing DAQmx Start Task.vi. Use it before Timed Loop, after Timing configuration. That Start Task.vi will trigger data acquisition - so then AI channels will be read in the Timed Loop. Also, after Timed Loop you need to use DAQmx Stop Task.vi, in order to stop task. You could check any example for AI reading, directly accessible in LabVIEW Example Finder.

Men's Basketball Wins Heartland Basketball Title
Home » News » Men's Basketball Wins Heartland Basketball Title
DENTON – Five St. Mary's University players scored in double figures and the Rattlers finished the game with an 11-2 run, leading them to a 79-70 win over St. Edward's University in the championship game of the Heartland Conference men's basketball tournament Saturday night at the Super Pit on the campus of the University of North Texas.
The second half was a back-and-forth battle with neither team taking more than a four-point lead. The Rattlers held the lead early in the second half, but the Hilltoppers rallied and took the lead with 6:26 left on a pair of Shawn Weinstein free throws. But Rod Bellard (Jr., Beaumont) hit a three-pointer and Marcus Hill (Sr., Longview) hit a pair of free throws to tie the game at 60 with 4:27 left.
The Rattlers took the lead on a Robert Owens (Jr., Oakwood) free throw with 1:45 left to give the Rattlers a 63-61 lead with just 1:45. However Taylor Land nailed an off-balance three pointer with 1:07 left and Jannik Zimmer followed with a free throw with 12 seconds left to give the Hilltoppers a two-point lead. But Allen Coleman (Sr., Corpus Christi) found Owens for a layup with six seconds left to tie the game and send it into overtime. That's when the Rattlers finally took over.
With the score tied at 67, the Rattlers outscored the Hilltoppers 7-0 with Hill and Coleman making layups. Shawn Weinstein came back with a three-pointer with 57 seconds left to make it a four-point game. But the Rattlers hit 5-of-8 free throws in the final 50 seconds to hold on for the win.
"They showed a lot of heart tonight," St. Mary's coach Jim Zeleznak said after the game. "I really thought that both teams competed really, really well. It was just a matter of who would put together a spurt. Defense was the key to the win for us."
Owens scored a game-high 16 points on 5-of-8 shooting from the field and 6-of-8 from the free throw line and was named tournament MVP. Coleman also earned all-tournament honors, scoring 14 points and dishing out five assists. Bellard added 11 points, while Hill and Latez Williams (Sr., Hamilton, Ohio) had 10 points each.
St. Mary's won its fifth straight game and improved to 17-12 overall this season with the win. St. Edward's fell to 23-6. The Rattlers earned the automatic berth into the NCAA Division II South Central Region Tournament. The announcement of the field will be at 9:30 p.m. Sunday night.

Erik ten Hag 'looking to the future' after Cristiano Ronaldo's messy departure
Cristiano Ronaldo left Manchester United last month (Martin Rickett/PA)
Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag claims the club have quickly moved on from Cristiano Ronaldo's messy departure last month.
Ten Hag was not willing to discuss the saga in depth when asked by the club's in-house TV channel MUTV in an interview that was aired on Wednesday.
The Dutchman instead insisted his focus was on the future as he looks to continue the rebuilding job at Old Trafford that he began when he arrived in the summer.
🛬 Just landed: part two of our extended sit-down with Erik…
Transfers, the season so far and United's future were all discussed — don't miss it 👇#MUFC
— Manchester United (@ManUtd) December 7, 2022
Asked how he had managed the situation, Ten Hag said: "He's gone and it's the past. We are now looking forward and we're looking to the future."
United terminated Ronaldo's contract after being rocked by an extraordinary series of complaints from the Portuguese star in an explosive TV interview with presenter and journalist Piers Morgan.
Ten Hag came in for particular criticism from the 37-year-old Ronaldo, who accused the Dutchman of not respecting him.
More questions may come when Ten Hag faces external media at a later date but, for now, his attention is on United's return to action after the World Cup break.
United face Burnley in a Carabao Cup tie on December 21 before hosting Nottingham Forest in the Premier League six days later.

Ten Hag is confident his players will hit the ground running.
He said: "We had a plan, we have prepared the players with what the plan is, so there can't be any confusion about what the programme is.
"We make the players aware of the fact that, after you are out of the World Cup, you have to return to the club and the league immediately goes on. You have to be ready for that, but I think our players are used to it."

Twitter, the social media sites giant, recently made a news that it would certainly be exploring uncommon website traffic on its website that can be caused due to state-sponsored cyberpunks. Shortly complying with the claim, Twitter's shares dropped virtually 7 percent in an issue of a couple of hrs. This is the most significant decrease for Twitter shares in the last 2 months.
In a blog post published by Twitter, it stated that its consumer support website encountered a considerable surge in traffic coming from particular web servers situated in China and Saudi Arabia. The security pest exposed big quantities of data from the system such as the phone nation codes and information about secured accounts.
WHY HAS THE VIOLATION IMPACTED THE COST OF SHARES?
One might be wondering regarding why the plain information of a protection violation has triggered such a massive adjustment in the billion-dollar firm's shares. Such information can absolutely question psychological of users and also investors. Michael Pachter, Expert at Wedbush, said, "Plainly, a breach such as this hinders customer trust in the platform".


Enjoy the charm of a rustic farmhouse in the stunning Bullpasture Valley of Highland County, Virginia. Since this house is ruled by Aries, it impacts the particular person's early years, the setting wherein they've grown up and what attitudes they acquired. In the tradition of Sixties rock icons just like the Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton and the Beatles that they had been heavily influenced by blues and took this traditional blues on to become an all time rock classic of the 1960s.
Arthur Charles Clement, businessman and son of prominent businessman of a dried goods operation, built this home while dwelling on the east facet of Joliet for his household. The home was listed for the bargain value of $159,000 and because of social media efforts, the sale bought nationwide attention. That sort of inflation tells me that either the purchase-to-letters have moved in to the market in large numbers, or else people are waking up to the truth that it is better to buy than to hire in such low cost areas.
Another improvement is using one space below the house the place we previously grazed the sheep and we have now our apple trees. We have demo'd so much of the home and I've been kind of keeping up with it on my Instagram tales but I thought it was time to show you at the least a number of the small progress we have now made within the month we've owned this new dwelling of ours. However, she and I dwell in the western mountains of WY and haven't any plans to go anywhere right now. What started as a one bedroom, kitchen, front room, eating room & toilet is now all those plus 2 bedrooms, household room, entrance room and seasonal patio room.
Edward Gallagher Jr, opened his new improvement called Ednor Gardens and used rock blasted from the constructing website in house designs. We moved into a new house not too long ago and the downstairs toilet has what appears to be like like darkish grey/black mould alongside one wall. White furry mould in your bedroom, at the first floor level, cannot be rising damp, which would never rise that far. Once a suggestion's received they will negotiate the promoting price, getting the best price possible for your home for you. If you dont have the money for it now, dont get it. trust me, credit cards DO NOT help. The body components ruled by the third house are shoulders, arms, palms, lungs, the collar bone and the nervous system. This is the house that provides a clue about the way you get along along with your Father, and the way your early years of life will probably be usually. The Mackinac Room is offered to exterior teams when sponsored by a Michigan House Member.
Free parking is on the market behind the Columbia Market House and in a public car parking zone 20 ft from the market home on on the left hand facet of South third Street. When the time of start just isn't identified, the Astrological Sun Sign on the Birthday becomes the Ascendant, and that is known as a Solar Chart. Getting rid of dampness in your own home typically means altering your individual habits and adjusting your life-style. This home had loads of constructed-ins, such as a closet, cupboard, range hood, and fireside. The owl, lifeless hummingbird and lifeless finch have all occurred prior to now 5 to 7 days.

Open House: Price-Reduced Kaneohe Townhome
Jenny Quill,
Outside looking in: An exterior view of the Club View Gardens III townhome.
It's Friday, which means it's once again time to talk open houses. This week I'm turning my attention to Kaneohe, more specifically, the Ahuimanu area. This townhouse is located in Club View Gardens III, a quiet community popular with new-home buyers, retirees and military families who appreciate the well-maintained grounds, recreation center and clubhouse, easy access to the H-3 (about a 15-minute drive) and Windward Mall (about five minutes away).
While the townhomes were built in 1976, this particular unit feels fairly modern thanks to a recent renovation that included new wood floors, new paint, an updated kitchen and master bath. The residence has three bedrooms, two baths and three lanai, which look out onto the property's lush tropical landscape, as well as vaulted ceilings and two parking spaces, all for $438,500.
Maintenance fees are $436 per month, and cover landscaping, termite prevention and building and roof maintenance. An additional $32 per month fee pays for the maintenance of the community recreation center and clubhouse.
Open house: Sunday, Oct. 3, 2 to 5 p.m.
For more information: MLS #1010999. www.hicentral.com.

Q: GNUPG and PHP Decrypt Failure I am encrypting a string using:
$gpg = new gnupg();
putenv("GNUPGHOME=/var/www/.gnupg");
$gpg->seterrormode(gnupg::ERROR_EXCEPTION);
$gpg->addencryptkey($fingerprint);
$encrypted =  $gpg->encrypt($data);
echo "Encrypted text: \n<pre>$encrypted</pre>\n";

The output of which works correctly, but I am having problems decrypting this output back to a string.
In order to decrypt this in CLI I have to use
gpg-agent --daemon --verbose gpg --homedir /var/www/.gnupg

(I get a socket connection error if I don't include the gpg-agent stuff before gpg)
I then enter my passphrase and and CTRL+D for end of file, and the text string is correctly decrypted.
When I try the same decryption in php using gnupg_decrypt I just get decrypt failed. Is there something I can do to disable the gpg-agent as I've tried adding no-agent etc to the conf file but it appears to have no effect but I think this may be the problem.
All files are set to match the owner of the process that is run from the php file, and permissions seem correct as everything else is working okay except for interaction with gpg-agent.
This decryption needs to happen silently as a php function as it forms part of an overnight automatic update system.
Any help much appreciated.

Noriko was the title of the movie. It was going to be a take on zombies in Hong Kong, a story with an anti-hero. Questionable morals, a revenge scenario and the most hilarious anti-zombie gadget you had ever seen.
The movie was being produced by my good friends over at Robot Entourage and Arne Venema who was directing, had asked me to do the soundtrack. We had discussed the script and I had seen some rushes, it was enough for me to start work on the tracks that were to become the soundtrack.
For the opening track, I wanted to do something special. So I called my friend Peter Nijland, who showed up to play electronic contrabass on "Joe wanders the streets". For one of the other tracks I took my inspiration from "Beyond the black rainbow", which has a great soundtrack. I experimented with tonality, using only one repeating phrase played by many different electronic instruments on another track.
I was working on track number five when I heard the bad news. There had been a burglary in the offices of Robot Entourage and all of the footage for Noriko had been taken. Probably an industry-job, but without footage and not enough time to reshoot, the project went on hiatus. The soundtrack is all that's left.

In nod to thriving population, West Covina looks to designate Filipino business area as 'Little Manila'

By Stephanie K. Baer | sbaer@scng.com | San Gabriel Valley Tribune
PUBLISHED: February 10, 2017 at 5:45 pm | UPDATED: August 30, 2017 at 6:01 am
WEST COVINA >> Customers file in and out of a small storefront in a shopping center in the southern part of town, leaving with cartons of sauteed noodles, marinated chicken and roasted pork.
It's rush hour on a Wednesday at Planet Pansit, a Filipino noodle house owned and operated by Luisa Soriano.
Some call in orders from as far away as Los Angeles, Anaheim and San Bernardino, stopping by Soriano's restaurant at the intersection of Azusa Avenue and Amar Road about an hour or two later to pick up their favorite Filipino noodle dish for dinner.
"We have the authentic noodles," said Soriano, who opened up her restaurant about eight years ago in the area home to an estimated 11,000 Filipinos and the largest collection of Filipino businesses in the San Gabriel Valley.
It's known as the home away from home for some in the community, but under a proposal included in the city's long-range development plan, the area may soon become officially known as "Little Manila," as a way to better attract tourists and recognize the contributions of the Filipino community in the city.
"It's important for cities to think about what makes them special and I think that's one of the special places in West Covina," said Councilman James Toma.
The update to the city's general plan, adopted in December, identifies the four corners at Azusa and Amar as an area the city could brand and promote as "Little Manila" through signage and potentially a business improvement district that would manage marketing and organize festivals to celebrate Filipino culture.
The idea was brought forward by Johnny Chua, president of the Filipino American Chamber of Commerce of the San Gabriel Valley, during planning meetings in the community.
"If this place is truly recognized as Little Manila it might be a tourist spot for people," said Chua, who lives in nearby Walnut. "When you are here you don't feel like you're in the states."
It's not clear why so many Filipinos ended up in West Covina. Some of them started to settle in the area in the 1970s, leaving the Philippines for various political and economic reasons.
Linda Santos, a personal financial consultant and founder of the Filipino chamber, said there were a lot of new houses in the area and they were much more affordable than homes in Los Angeles.
"Most Filipinos want to own homes. That's their dream," said Santos, 68, of West Covina.
They also like to own their own businesses and what better place to open a Filipino business than a place where lots of Filipinos are, she said.
In the mid-1990s, Santos helped organize the chamber as a group to support business owners. The chamber also started to host annual celebrations in the shopping center parking lot to bring more people to the businesses.
In 1998, the chamber petitioned the city to name a street in the area Manila Way and worked with the city, local businesses and the Philippine Consulate General to erect a bust of Dr. Jose Rizal, a national hero whose writings helped inspire the Philippine nationalist movement in the 1890s, at the shopping center.
There is no timeline for implementing the designation and putting up signs. Chua said he plans to formally petition the city to do so in the coming months and unveil the signs in June when the Philippines declared independence from the United States more than 100 years ago.
Soriano and other business owners hope the designation will bring more non-Filipinos to the area.
"We are always proud of our products and when we share it to non-Filipinos they appreciate it," she said. "We put our heart in it. Anything we do we share; it's a good feeling."

good morning, everybody. i am joy reid. that was bernie sanders explaining to our own rachel maddow why in his view, his cohort of voters are more powerful, more powerful voting bloc, than hillary clinton's bloc of voters. that's the case bernie sanders plans to make at the democratic national convention in philadelphia. but so far, got to say, bernie sanders is not winning with his cohort of voters. his cohort is actually not helping him get the nomination. in fact, mathematically, sanders is basically eliminated at this point. let's find out why. the reason comes down to one thing, race. more specifically, african-american voters. let's go to my new friend the board here and take a look at the united states broken down by county and by race. these are the various counties in the united states and the concentration of african-american voters is indicated in purple. so the more intense the purple, the darker the purple color that you see, the higher the concentration of african-american voters. not surprisingly, that's mostly in the south.
in the states of the former confederacy, right? so you see high concentrations in places here, in the southern part of the united states, a little bit up here in new york and a little bit out here in the west, but in the vast middle of the country, not a lot of african-american voters. now let's take a look at how bernie sanders and hillary clinton actually did with those voters in the primaries. you see a pattern here? hillary clinton doing well in that same big swath of the country where you have high concentrations of black voters. bernie sanders running up big margins, the intensity of the green and the blue indicating where each of these candidates did better. bernie sanders running up big margins in places like kansas, minnesota and idaho. hillary clinton with prohibitive margins in places like mississippi, alabama, georgia, south carolina. some of these states hillary clinton actually won by 80 percentage points, huge wins. to make that even a little more clear for you, let's look at the 20 states with the highest concentrations of african-american voters. these are the 20 states where
the percentage of african-americans in the population is more than 10%. so again, we are back to the south again. places like georgia, alabama, mississippi. who won those states? we are going to give it a second. who won those states? hillary clinton. hillary clinton winning 19 so far or 18 of the 19 of those states that have voted so far. the only state where bernie sanders managed to get a win, right here in michigan. we will talk a little about that later. so the question is why is this map the way it is? why is hillary clinton doing better in the states that have these high black populations than bernie sanders? the reason may come down to the way bernie sanders explains himself and his issues. let's go back to the interview he did with rachel maddow and listen to him explaining what hillary clinton needs to do to win over his voters. >> as we go into the democratic convention, the democratic party has got to open its doors to those young people, to those
working people who now do not feel much allegiance to the democratic party. that means the democratic party has got to be very clear about which side it is on. is it going to be on the side of wall street? is it going to be on the side of the drug companies or is it prepared to stand with working families and low income people and demand a government that represents all of us and not just the 1%. when you do that, i believe, when you have that agenda you create excitement at the base. >> all right. joining me at the table where i have reappeared having played with that little board, from the national memo, joe conason, msnbc contributor toure and joining us from austin is panil joseph from the university of texas at austin. thank you for coming this morning. i want to start on the last point about the way bernie sanders talks about himself. you have been covering this campaign. you have been on the bus, speak to speak, with bernie sanders. you heard him speak a lot of times. when he's framing issues of
economics, how much does he touch on race typically? >> he typically touches on race in every single speech he gives. he talks about the real unemployment rate being 10% and usually goes into the fact that youth unemployment for hispanics and african-americans is extremely higher. he talks about this idea of raising the minimum wage and this idea that african-americans are going to benefit, wholly women are going to benefit so much if you raise the wages. he has appeal, his message i think is the issue. the issue is in the south, they kind of gave up the south to hillary clinton. i was on this call once, conference call with his senior strategist where they basically said the reason we didn't win the south was because we didn't compete. i was thinking well, you didn't compete so what are you thinking about, why are you talking about it now. i think that was a big problem for him, this idea he didn't think about it. >> to that point, we pulled through the magic of our friends at nbc news, we pulled out the
numbers on the actual spending, whether or not the sanders campaign actively competed for black voters. take a look at that. this is the spending of the campaign so far. they have not wanted for money. in iowa they spent $8 million. in new hampshire, $10 million. you then get to the fourth primary, the most important primary if your plan is to woo african-americans, $972,000. that spend is not big. you look at a state like new york which is a massive media market, they only spent $5.7 million. for a campaign that is saying it wants to win african-americans, it's in their mess age, they haven't spent the money to do it. >> clearly they have not, because they have internal polling they know what they can and cannot achieve in terms of the number of voters they can ramp up. look, i disagree slightly, i think there is a problem with his message in that he's all about class, economy, wall street, inequality. that's great. for a lot of black people that message doesn't resonate because we understand our problems are greater than class. our problems are about dealing with white supremacy and white
privilege. those things are not superseded by when you get a good job or get into the middle class or even the upper class. so he's not dealing with a central problem for us. we understand that this class-based argument is not -- it leaves us cold a bit because it's not the entire story. also, of course, the gun issue. black people are more pro-gun safety than white people were after newtown. that is where we live in a very high level of supporting gun safety. his position on that is just a total non-starter. >> especially in a place like new york where you have these issues, yet it is a state restrictive on guns. the way the sanders campaign talks about its inability to win over african-american voters. i want to start by playing bernie sanders talking about the south. this has become a big issue particularly for supporters of hillary clinton, the way bernie sanders talks about the south. let's listen to bernie sanders. >> secretary clinton cleaned our clock in the deep south. no question about it.
we got murdered there. that is the most conservative part of this great country. that's a fact. >> in my little presentation i did at the beginning, you look at that map of where african-americans live and it is still so heavily concentrated in the south. how does a comment like that wind up landing with african-americans, saying we didn't win the south because it's so conservative? >> yeah. i think he misspoke when he said that. i think that doesn't land very well with the black community. but i think in terms of sanders and race, it has to do with how he's framed his message. he has some great african-american surrogates, he's run an impressive campaign. black lives matter activists sort of pushed him to the left on race. but he's been unable to braid his message of inequality about class inequality like toure was saying, with racial justice. that should be his mantra for every speech. i would add racial and gender justice. bernie's big problem is a problem of intersectionality.
all the young voters and the young activists who are leading black lives matter chants care about intersectionality. they care about lgbt issues, they care about poverty, they care about race, they care about class and they realize we live all these identities simultaneously so i think his biggest flaw has been sort of conceding that, that hillary clinton is going to get these black voters because of bill clinton and because of this decades-long association but like people like michelle alexander talked about when the black community, if you really investigate hillary clinton, the public policy implications of the clinton administration, you will see mass incarceration, a lot of negative policy impacts, but bernie has sort of conceded that and has had this inability to braid that message. we know he's talking about inequality but he doesn't braid it with racial justice and really gender justice, lgbt. he will talk about them in speeches, but it's all segmented
and silo'ed and it's not together. >> to that very point, no one has covered the clinton sort of world more than you have, there is this concession that even though the point is made, particularly younger african-americans are actually interested in sanders' message because they do have this intersectional desire to have something like revolution politically, this is jane sanders, really conceding the african-american vote, all of it, young, old, all of it, to the clintons. take a listen. >> she has a good relationship with the african-american community that goes back decades so that hurts us. it helps her. we are making inroads, especially among those under 45, we are winning across races among those under 45. so it takes awhile for them to get to know bernie. >> i should have said conceding the older part of the african-american cohort saying that's just hrelationship. is that too simplistic,
particularly when they didn't spend ad dollars? >> it's simplistic. there's definitely a generational divide which i have observed. i went with bill clinton in philadelphia to see the leaders of the a.m.e. church, bishops who were meeting there. it was like he was their best friend. they have known him for 30 years or more. they know what he did in arkansas as governor which is different than what he did as president. he broke segregation in arkansas, fought for many years. so people, older black people i think understand this about him. despite differences over issues, plus bernie sanders voted for the crime bill. the crime bill was a different thing when it was voted than people have come to see it now, including the clintons. i think it is complicated. there are strata within the african-american community in terms of voting in this primary. he does have an appeal to younger voters. my view is if bernie had stayed in brooklyn he would be doing a lot better.
he would have the comfort level in those communities that a guy who has lived in vermont as a politician for all these years, all white pretty much, it's just not there for him. whereas hillary clinton knows african-american people, she has them in every campaign, in leadership positions. this is not something new for them. they don't have to go and learn about it. >> one other point i want to make is that what any social group you are asked to join, you will consider who are the people in the group, not just the leaders, right, and you know, i actually lying beike bernie. if he became the nominee, i would be very happy to support him. but the bernie bros are very off-putting. to ask me to join that group and stand shoulder to shoulder with them would be difficult for me to do. i think for some black people would feel the same way. they do not present a positive face for the bernie sanders movement. it's just something that makes it difficult to want to make that leap.
when you have these other idealogical problems of we're not together on guns or this or that, and i got to stand with those guys? >> i want to give this next question to you, as you have been on this campaign trail. i want to show video. this is not about african-americans. this was a rally in los angeles that hillary clinton held on cinco de mayo that was met with bernie broism outside. protesters were screaming at the people who were exiting that hillary clinton rally and just the vitriol and anger you are seeing from the base of bernie sanders supporters, do you see that on the campaign trail in real time? >> i'm usually at the bernie sanders rallies, so it's kind of like a party, very celebratory. when i ask people about hillary clinton, whether they will support her, the first time you ask, usually people, maybe half the people say no. when i say will you support her if she's running against donald trump, 90% of the people say yes. i think while these people might be protesting outside, as soon
as you start asking about donald trump they run over to hillary clinton's corner. i think some of this is also anger in the fact they are seeing their candidate go down. i was reporting all last week about how they were reassessing, cutting, laying off staff, pulling people. i think they are mad to see this movement they had so much invested in coming to an end. >> i think that toure makes a good point, we all experience in the media covering this campaign, we experience it in our social media feeds, the kind of rage really that you see among not all, but some supporters of bernie sanders. does that hurt him in trying to build a broader movement that is at the end of the day based on being part of the democratic party? >> well, i think rage hurts everyone. that never helps a candidate. one of the things that when we talk about things like bernie bros is the lack of sensitivity to again that word intersectionality, the fact we really are in this, all in this together. it goes back to bernie has said he's a socialist, a social democrat. when we go back to the 19th
century, the key for that revolution was just going to be class. race, gender, these other issues were really just side issues and we are bringing the margins to the center. that's what's so exciting about the black lives matter movement. at its best, young bernie supporters of color really talk about intersectionality and some of them have transformed the bernie bros. at its worst, it's just about class. it can turn people off. when we think about november, there's going to have to be some kind of united front if hillary clinton's going to be elected. if young people decide not to vote, not to vote for hillary, if they can't get bernie sanders, they are going to be in for a really rough surprise with donald trump. remember, this happened in 1968, too. we had hubert humphrey, richard nixon, george wallace running for president. eldridge cleaver ran as well.
young people did not go to humphrey and we got nixon. some thought nixon would produce the revolution but he did not. he gave a lot of poor people, lot of black people, a lot of pain. >> thank you so much. up next, republicans had their reagan democrats. anti-trump sentiment is creating hillary clinton republicans. how many will dare to cross party lines? ♪jake reese, "day to feel alive"♪ ♪jake reese, "day to feel alive"♪
donald trump is the face of the gop. that makes us crony capitalists. it makes us wafflers. it makes us pretty racist. it makes us big government guys. i won't tolerate it.
i don't want my children to look at that man and say yeah, he's my president. i won't have that. >> glenn beck is not having it. cracks in gop party unity broke wide open when donald trump emerged as the last man standing and presumptive republican nominee. both presidents george h.w. bush and george w. bush are withholding their endorsements and neither plans to even attend the gop convention in july. house speaker paul ryan is saying nope, at least for now. others like you just heard from glenn beck are anti-trumping all the way to november. so they say. then there were those republicans who are divorcing the party all together. you may have seen some of them on social media, burning their republican party registration cards and posting the official evidence of their deregistration from the gop. there was also another category of republicans who not only ran away from trump and the republican party, but headed straight for the hills like former john mccain aide mark salter and red state editor ben howe who both jumped the
partisan fence, tweeting on tuesday i'm with her. back with me is joe conason and joining me is the long-time republican strategist and lobbyist and from miami, news radio host and pollster, fernand. max, i want to go to you first. we do have this divide over republicans who have dyspepsia over donald trump and those who say they would actually vote for hillary clinton. in which camp are you? >> i will not vote for hillary clinton. i have been a republican all of my life and worked for the republican party and i can't bring myself to vote for hillary clinton. neither will i vote for donald trump. he's not a republican. he's the ultimate rhino. he's a republican in the same sense the visagoths were romans. i think the party is better than that. i think the nation deserves
better than that. he's not qualified to be president on any metric. we created him and it's up to us to stop him. >> you actually win the entire year for bringing that into the discussions. we love you for that. the question is for somebody like you, if you can't bring yourself to vote for hillary or trump, what do you do in november? you are a party leader in a very important swing state. what do you actually wind up doing? >> i'm doing it now. all we need is 3% to 5% of republicans to stay home. we don't have to convince 50%. florida hangs on the knife edge. you can't win the white house without florida. he needs 92% of republicans and he needs to break even and win or slightly win independents. he's unlikely to do either. we only need 3% to 5% of sane republicans with decent values and good conscience to not vote in that race. i'm doing that now. >> wow. so fernand, we have talked about the party in florida trying to
prevent a flood of people walking away. i will show you a few tweets off gop twitter this week. senator lindsey graham saying if we nominate trump we will get destroyed and deserve it. you have national review writer charles cook, madam president. conservative blogger and radio host eric ericson saying i don't want to congratulate hillary clinton on winning the presidency tonight but she just did. and american is essentially dead, declaring its death date to be may 3rd, 2016. how hard will it be for republicans to prevent max from mounting a stay home campaign? >> when he says i'm not going to vote for donald trump and i'm not going to vote for hillary clinton, let's be honest in what that means in the political calculus. that is a vote for hillary clinton. by not participating and voting for the republican candidate in this case, as you said, unbelievably, donald trump, you are in essence causing and signaling other republicans stay
home, that's going to elect hillary clinton. i think what's happening, what's remarkable about this, is that this early out, there is a sophie's choice that the republican party is making in saying hey, we either get the white house or we keep our majorities in congress. i think that's what was so remarkable about paul ryan saying huh-uh, not supporting trump yet. i think their internal studies suggest if we don't do this, we could lose both so let's protect our congressional majority, say no to the trump candidacy for the white house and do what we can to hold on to our majorities in congress. >> you have actually people like george will saying that's exactly what republicans should do. it's essentially their responsibility as conservatives and responsible members of the party to go ahead and let hillary clinton win and then fight it out in 2020 for the white house and protect down ballot races. >> you know, that's sort of their normal. in other words, they are a congressional party now. they haven't been a presidential party for awhile. since george w. bush. they haven't had a prospect of becoming a presidential party.
people said this was a strong field, started out with 17. the other side called it the clown car. nobody was impressed and now it's turned out the worst possible outcome. so now, it sort of is sensible for them to try to preserve their status as a congressional party. if they don't do that, they have nothing. >> is it, in your view, better to rebuild the party essentially by holding on to congress and trying to essentially concede a hillary clinton presidency and try to fight her from there and try to come back in 2020? in your mind, is that a way to build the party and can that work if the base of your party wants donald trump? >> well, i would go back to something the gentleman said earlier about the effect of abstaining in the presidential race. as i said, i'm opposed to hillary clinton. the first segment on your show made me want to open a vein. but donald trump is worse by far. hillary clinton is a democrat.
she's a mainstream democrat. she's no more loose than lyndon johnson, no more liberal than barack obama, no more transactional than her husband and we will survive. donald trump is a fascist. he's a dangerous man. we can't have him be president of the united states. now, we also need to preserve the republican party. it plays an important role in the country. donald trump will destroy it. >> you know, i think that was very well said. andrew sullivan has gone further and called it, i think we are running out of time. he's called it an extinction level event to have nominated donald trump. all my guests are sticking around. much more of this. up next, ted cruz made things entertaining. a look at his campaign trail moments to remember. the ones we will love and truly miss. i have asthma...
...one of many pieces in my life. when my asthma symptoms kept comingack on my long-term control medicine i talked to my doctor and fod a missing piece in my asthma treatment with breo. once-daily breo prevents asthma symptoms. breo is for adults with asthma not well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. breo won't replace a rescue inhaler for sudden breathing problems. breo opens up airways to help improve breathing for a full 24 hours. breo contains a type of medine
that increases the risk of death from asthma problems and may increase the risk of hospitalization in children and adolescents. breo is not for people whose asthma is well controlled on a long-term asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. once your asthma is well controlled, your doctor will decide if you can stop breo and prescribe a different asthma control medicine, like an inhaled corticosteroid. do not take breo more than prescribed. see your doctor if your asthma does not improve or gets worse. ask your doctor if 24-hour breo could be a missing piece for you. see if you're eligible for 12 months free at mybr.com. so we know how to cover almost alanything.ything, even a stag pool party.

>> back with me is my panel and joining me is daily beast columnist michael tamaski. let me bring you in first. that was paul ryan, essentially hedging, saying he's not ready to support donald trump right now. they are scheduled to meet and we don't know what will happen next week. i want to play you on hannity's show on thursday, newton leroy gingrich. he had this to say about paul ryan's hedgery. take a listen. >> in the case of paul ryan, he made a big mistake today. he needs to understand this. he is the speaker of the house. he has an obligation to unify the party. he has an obligation to reach out. >> michael, newt gingrich is obviously supporting donald trump but will we now see a civil war in the republican party over whether or not they are obligated to endorse? >> it's going to depend in paul ryan's case entirely on what the polls tell him about what impact donald trump is going to have on the races that his house members
face. that's all this is about. it's not really about positions. it's about ryan's assessment of how badly trump's going to hurt his people. there are i forget the exact number, i haven't checked it lately, but there are a number of swing districts in the house and i know the experts added to the list of vulnerable republicans once it became clear that trump was the nominee. so there's going to be polling in those districts and ryan is going to check that polling obsessively and he will see whether trump is going to cost him seats or whether trump is in the end maybe not going to cost him seats. in the former instance, he won't endorse. in the latter instance, he probably will endorse and that's all this is about. >> that's very interesting. as a person that is in the officialdom of the republican party in florida, one of the few states where republican house members actually can potentially have hispanics in significant numbers in their districts, is that something you worry about, particularly in a place like florida where you have state-wide and district level races where hispanics could be
part of it and they are the most anti-trump of all the groups? >> as i said in the earlier segment, i think donald trump will have a devastating effect. maybe i'm exaggerating. i don't know if it will be devastating or not but he will certainly have an adverse effect down ballot. maybe it will peter out further down the ballot you go. but in the florida state race and some of the congressional races, we are a purple state. i just don't think the people of florida are going to be that crazy about the dog whistle that is the trump campaign, torturing people, killing their families, all of that sort of stuff. i think it will be a problem for us. >> you know, another issue that has been a big part of the trump campaign, probably the most animating portion of what he does and why he's attracting people is this idea of building a wall across the southern border. it's what gets huge cheers at his rallies. i wonder if it's also something that sets him apart the least from his party. this is ted cruz talking about the idea of building a wall, from a republican debate in february.
>> in short, what we're going to do, we are going to build a wall, we are going to triple the border patrol, we are going to increase and actually since donald enjoyed that, i will simply say i have got somebody in mind to build it. >> now let's look at john mccain, who lives in a state that is also very heavily latino that has hispanic votes he needs to win at least a plurality of or decent portion of in order to be re-elected state-wide. this is john mccain at a fund-raiser talking about trump hurting his re-election prospects. >> donald trump at the top of the ticket here in arizona, with over 30% of the vote will be the hispanic vote, no doubt this may be the race of my life. people are angry, they are upset, they feel that there's this disconnect, and all of that, and frankly, there's an element of nativi ishgs sshgnat
well. this is going to be a tough campaign for me. >> here is john mccain saying with 30% of the vote in arizona being hispanics it's going to be a tough race for him. this was john mccain back in 2010 and how he was talking about the very same issue that is driving donald trump campaign. >> we got the right plan, plan's perfect. you bring troops, state, county and local law enforcement together and complete the danged fence. >> isn't this an issue that is broader than donald trump? it's not as if he's all that different from the republican party in general on things like immigration. this is an issue that the republican party has been struggling with and they also know they are kind of -- they need to do something because the demographics are not in their favor. i talked to a lot of republican sources who tell me they are working really hard to try to figure out how to get more hispanic votes, to get more black votes. experts i talked to ridiculed the republican party, think about that, because you are candidates, think about mitt
romney saying self-deportation, you think about all these people who have done this. now the republican nominee is known. at the same time, they are trying to go to their base. john mccain, you talk about this fence, he's trying to be the republican nominee at the time. they know they need to talk about their base, they need to kind of rile people up but in a general election, and i would say for the future of the party, they know hispanics will be key and they can't keep doing this. i think that's what you hear john mccain talking about. he's worried for the future of the party. yes, he's worried for his seat but is also wondering how do republicans continue to be elected if we are going to continue to ostracize hispanics. and the voters are growing, they are a huge part of the population and are very poli politically engaged. >> we are starting to see complaints on the right from red state.com that donald trump is already selling out the base. there's a piece called selling treachery in which he is saying donald trump isn't the nominee yet and is already changing his mind and is open to raising the
minimum wage. the "wall street journal" reporting that trump will not be self-funding his campaign, that he will actually raise big money, renouncing his own tax plan which mostly benefits the wealthy and the man he picked to head his fund-raising is a foe former hillary clinton donor. is he moving to the left on a lot of issues while at the same time moving to the right on finance? >> it sure looks that way. that's harder to do than he might think. mitt romney tried to do that in 2012. everyone will remember the famous etch-a-sketch comment that one of his campaign aides made. that comment didn't go down very well. then the implementation of the etch-a-sketch throughout the course of september and october also didn't go down that well. it bought him a little time. he did it very aggressively in the first debate about obama and picked up some points but obviously didn't win the
presidency. it's not that easy for trump to do, for any candidate to do, especially for trump now when he faces a situation when all of these people except jeff sessions and one or two others are extremely wary of him. they will be looking to save their own necks. that mccain quote, yeah, that's how they are all going to be thinking. and not wrongly so. they want to save their own necks first. if that means throw trump overboard that's what that means. >> do you believe in the future what the trump experience has taught your party is they may actually need to abandon some of these ideas including on things like minimum wage. if he will make that pivot and that's already popular with populist working class white voters who vote republican, is trump going to shake up the idealogical firmament of the republican party? >> we need to stop enabling the wrong kind of ideas, stop encouraging the wrong beliefs, that government's their enemy.
trump cannot pivot on immigration because you can't put the xenophobia genie back in the bottle. that was the original foundational lie of his campaign, we were going to round up, transport, house, guard, feed and deport 12 million people, twice as many as joseph stalin managed in 30 years. it was unbelievable and could only be believed by fools and a man who exploits the credulity of fools is a charlatan. i would be stunned if hispanics don't savage him in november. >> you are a great guest. hopefully you will come back. thank you for being here. stay right there. donald trump keeps coming up with new ways to drive away latino voters. that's next. assion. but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one.

>> do you promise to deport those in this country illegally? do you stand by that? >> yes. they are going to be deported. >> everything i said i would do, folks, i'll do. >> suzanne, donald trump says he will do great with hispanics because he will have a jobs, jobs, jobs message. can a jobs message overcome that? >> there's no way that could overcome what he said. i talked to several gop hispanics asking for a 180 degree turn to even think about talking to him about helping him in the hispanic community. look, we have been doing this from day one, where he opened his presidential bid with an insult of mexicans and calling them criminals and rapists. that was our headline, he was trashing mexicans. he actually got an entree into the hispanic community from the chamber of commerce. the ceo invited him to a
candidate forum to talk to hispanics about the issues. he made a deal and backed out. that's a way of saying you devalue the hispanic vote and you know, he's kind of showing that he doesn't fear it. he doesn't care about it. putting out a taco bell is not the same as what you saw with president obama doing on cinco de mayo. he understands the nuances of the community, how important that was to hispanics. >> fernand, you are my pollster friend in addition to all the other great things you do. i want to throw three stats at you. you clearly already know them but talk about how this makes the donald trump assumption he can win over hispanics really untenable. you have unfavorable ratings at 77 to 12. mitt romney managed to get 27% of the hispanic vote. if that's the percentage trump gets, he's in trouble. let's go to the second stat, the projected electorate in november. white voters, 69%, an historical
low. hispanic voters moving up to 12%. one last statistic, the growth in eligible voters 2012 over 2016. hispanic voters, the fastest growing group in the united states in terms of eligible voters. the question is whether or not hispanic voters in your view will actually come closer to voting their population share because that typically doesn't happen. do you see signs that that actually could happen this year? >> no question. i think all one has to do is go back to see the microcosm precedent for this sort of situation and it was california in the mid '90s during the prop 187 era. donald trump for the hispanic community nationally is pete wilson on steroids. they know this is a big problem, by the way, but i think where donald trump is trying to right the ship by focusing on jobs, that is the number one most important issue for hispanic voters, bar none. lot of folks think it's
immigration. not to suggest immigration is not an important issue, but jobs and the economy. if he thinks he's going to move those numbers around, those horrific numbers that you saw in terms of favorability rating by doing a tweet around cinco de mayo, he's sadly mistaken. he will have to start to walk beco back some of the statements. i don't think he can. this is the very reason i think he was propelled to the leader board position on the republican nomination side. it started off as a very strong anti-immigrant, anti-illegal immigrant, undocumented immigrant message and all mixed in there is the problem with the hispanic community because on the one hand while immigration is not the most important issue, they see that as a code issue for disparaging the hispanic population and i just don't see how donald trump walks that back between now and november. >> yeah. all right. well, if you see the little box in your lower right-hand corner of the screen, that is president
obama preparing to give the commencement address at howard university. we will watch that and we may bring you a little of that if it comes in our hour. at the top of the hour, how trump became the face of the republican party and the other celebrities who have been elected to office. we are just warming up. pet moments are beautiful, unless you have allergies. flonase is the first and only nasal spray approved to relieve both itchy, watery eyes and congestion. no other nasal allergy spray can say that. go ahead, embrace those beautiful monts. flonase changes everything.

Apple unveils the cheaper M2 Mac mini, the highly anticipated upgrade option to the M2 Pro
by Niko G
Windows 10 nags users with full-screen Windows 11 "free upgrade" notifications
The new Windows 11 File Explorer feature lets you drag a tab to open it in its window
The Galaxy S23 is so boring that there's nothing Apple can improve on
As predicted earlier this week, Apple announced the launch of new M2 and M2 Pro models of the Mac mini on Tuesday. These offer much faster speeds at the top end, but also entry-level price cuts as Apple tries to appeal to both ends of the market.
Apple's smallest and cheapest Mac was equipped with Apple silicon processors back in 2020, but it needed an upgrade from the M1 to the M2 chip used in the 2022 editions of the MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and iPad Pro. What was less expected was that the company would simultaneously add the option to get the mini with a brand new upgraded M2 Pro.
"The new M2 Pro chip brings pro-level performance to Mac mini for the first time," Apple said in a press release, "enabling users to perform powerful workflows previously unimaginable in such a compact design."
Specifically, the M2 Pro configuration features up to 12 CPU cores (eight high-performance cores and four high-efficiency cores), up to 12 GPU cores, and up to 32 GB of RAM. It includes four Thunderbolt 4 ports and can support three 4K displays or one 8K display. Apple says this model delivers up to 4.2x faster ProRes transcode in Final Cut Pro than the 2020 M1 Mac mini, and up to 2.8x faster gameplay in Resident Evil Village.
The M2 Pro Mac mini has four Thunderbolt 4 ports, an increase from the M2 model's two ports.
Of course, not everyone needs this power, and the Mac mini has traditionally been viewed and purchased as a compact budget machine. But here too there is good news. The M2 model starts at $599 (or $499 for education), a decent price reduction from the $699 starting price for the M1 model. Even in the UK, which has become accustomed to price increases in recent times, the starting price has dropped from £699 to £649.
Unsurprisingly, the M2 Pro model is a little less wallet-friendly. The base configuration costs $1,299 / £1,399, and made-to-order options – including extra cores, 32GB RAM, 8TB storage and 10 Gigabit Ethernet – can bump this up to $4,499 / £4,599 without even pre-installed software. The previous Intel model started at $1,099.
Readers in the US can browse pricing and configuration options and place an order for the new Mac mini on Apple's website for delivery starting Tuesday, January 24, though we're already seeing delivery estimates back to three weeks or more. UK readers can order from the dedicated UK shop.

Bunker Infrastructure
@Adam
We started this year continuing our work on base building to bring it's core design goals to completion. This has allowed us to focus on the depth of this feature rather than just moving onto the next area of the game.
Bunker Infrastructure ideally will be used to add a sense of persistence, investment, and ultimately long term goals for base builders. People will get to decorate bases as they like, and doing so will advance the tech associated with an individual bunker base. Think of it as a mini tech tree that progresses the larger and the more awesome a base looks. The rate of progression is directly determined by the number of installed Infrastructure Modifications, requiring planning and effort to achieve these mountain goals.
There are three types of Infrastructure and each has its own set of Modifications that contribute to their rate of progression equally. Each has its own tech progression and will affect the type of structures you unlock for that bunker.
Garrison - Unlocks defensive structures
Support - Unlocks support structures
Command - Unlocks facilities and structures that can impact deployment
For example, if you build a new T3 Bunker Base, you have to install Garrison infrastructure modifications to advance your Garrison tech, which will eventually unlock structures like Howitzer Garrisons.
The Bunker system and the Trench system wasn't scalable to other new features that we wanted. To make sure that we could add the content we wanted, we had to restructure the Blueprint "Class" system to allow for the creation of more involved content.
The chart showcases how we organized the Bunker content. When you have a hammer equipped and are in 'upgrade mode' it basically runs a check when you click on the available upgrade. If you click on a firing port, it will show you all the available locations to build a firing port, because its in the wall slot. This system worked well enough for simple assets, but what if we wanted more visually interesting assets with lots of variants?
The programming monkeys on our team (aka Casey) have modified the system so that we can create a sub-type called 'mods'. These mods are their own blueprint (essentially a folder) where we can decorate it any way we want and have a corresponding type that it fulfills. This means we can add visual variations, and add things like decals and lights without bloating the Bunker Class blueprint with a million assets. Now it even supports the randomization of assets when you build something, so when two people build something side-by-side they will not look identical.
To make a long story short. We can now make more complicated and visually interesting props for the Bunkers, that allow players to visually customize their bases.
Modular Visuals
The challenge of being able to make more visually interesting assets is that we the artist, now have to create more visually interesting assets. Anthony, Julian and I had the task of researching and creating a large library of assets for us to generate to populate all of the content required for mods. We needed a way to create variants for each of these mods without creating a custom model for each one.
Julian drew a lot of concepts for things he would like to see, and then Anthony and I broke down the visuals into related groups. We also found some cool references for things we would like to make in the world
After breaking down the list of things we wanted to create, we divided up the work and began content creation of the individual groups, to prepare for assembly. Building in a modular fashion is an interesting challenge as you have to pre-plan your textures and have them organized in a way that anyone can create a new asset just by manipulating the UVs, but it allows for a huge variety of decent looking assets made very quickly and efficiently.
Once all the elements are made we can then assemble their mod blueprints in the engine to create all the variants.
Here are some of the assets in-game.
To showcase some of these details we are also playing around with the idea of having a "cinematic" camera that is more zoomed in and slightly lower camera angle. The idea was that there is a keypress that would zoom the camera is similar to how games like Diablo 3 does it.
We still have lots of work to do, and we hope to get it in your hands soon!

Bookmakers call it off on Greece exit!!!
I've come across this interesting article on bookmakers across the Euro region on the betting for Greece exit. I already have an account with Betfair which I have used to bet on soccer rather than political regime betting. So do you have an account with them? :p
Bookmakers in Britain have suspended all bets; if Greece, will be leaving the eurozone due to the current political upheaval in the country.
William Hill and Ladbrokes have suspended all bets on whether Greece will be leaving the eurozone. Betting on William Hill had increased on Greece leaving the eurozone that it had been deemed to risky to continue taking new bets. The odds had actually been pushed to down to a quarter. The increased bets on whether Greece will be leaving were attributed to the fact that the country is having political troubles, after leaders in Greece were unable to form any government. This has increased fears that Greece could be heading to a single currency.
Greece's capital, Athens is in chaos as voters who had recently elected new leaders showed their anger over the new measures on austerity. This has put leaders in the country in limbo, and they are still trying to create a sustainable government. This has led to great uncertainty over the country's continued membership in the eurozone causing jitters in Europe and the world markets. It is this uncertainty that has led to Ladbrokes suspending all bets in lieu of the country's withdrawal from the euro.
Greece has been a favorite among betters for a while, but with the elections and subsections chaos in Greece, every one has had a change of heart, and it is the only the thing that people want to bet on. William Hill, which is also the biggest betting firm in Britain, said that that such a situation was dangerous, and unhealthy, because it was becoming increasingly hard to make a book. On the other hand Ladbrokes said that it, suspended betting on the issue because they had been cutting the odds for a while now. The second biggest betting firm said that suspending the bets was better because it was safer in the long run. However, Ladbrokes is still taking bets that the Greek stock market will loose more than 25% in a single day's trading by the end of this year. Additionally, due to the fears that have been expressed: that the withdrawal of Greece would be the beginning of the end of the euro. Then Ladbrokes is offering bets on the odds that by the end of this year, the euro will no longer be there. This bet, when taken would mean that any bet made, would be thirty three times, its original stake. Other odds offered by Ladbrokes PLC (LON:LAD) include odds that the euro will stop existing by the 2015, odds of 5/6, and odds of 4/1 that two or more countries will have left the eurozone by the end of this year. However, William Hill has placed bets that the euro will stop existing by 2015, and odds that had been gotten before the suspension of betting showing that 11/10 were against the odds, and 4/6 supporting it. Nonetheless, the two largest bookies in Britain said that as soon as Greece stabilizes, then it will reopen its books to the market and resume betting.
