When the Power Glove was released in the early 1990s, the idea that you could control games with hand motions was incredible, but like the Virtual Boy that followed years later, the hardware of the day just couldn't keep up. Today, hardware has finally gotten to the point where this type of interface could be very useful, so Teague Labs decided to integrate a Power Glove with an HTC Vive VR headset.
While still under development, the glove's finger sensors have shown great promise for interactions with virtual touchscreen devices, and they've even come up with a game where you have to counter rocks, paper, and scissors with the correct gesture.
Making this all possible is the Arduino Due, which supports the library for communicating with the Vive tracker.
We took a Power Glove apart, 3D scanned the interfacing plastic parts and built modified parts that hold the Vive Tracker and an Arduino Due on the glove. After some prototyping on a breadboard, we designed a shield for the Due and etched it using the laser-cutter transfer technique. We then soldered all components and spray-painted the whole shield to protect the bare copper. After mounting the tracker and tweaking the code by matzmann666, we had the glove work.
If you'd like to see the details of what has been accomplished so far, check out the Teague Labs team's design files and code on GitHub.
Redditor "xmajor9x" has spent several weeks building a three-legged machine to balance a metal ball on top of a plate. The device uses three servos attached to a rectangular surface with linkages that translate servo position into linear displacement of the table. This allows it to keep the ball centered, or rotate around the perimeter in a circle or square pattern.
An Arduino Due controls the ball using a PID loop, and the ball's position is sensed not by an external camera, but by the top "plate," which is actually made out of a resistive touchscreen. Although this adds a very unique element, it means that the ball on top must be quite heavy to be reliably tracked, and its creator is considering switching to a computer vision system in the future.
If you've seen color sensors such as the TCS34725, you may have considered them for projects that can pick out one colored object over another. On the other hand, if you were to take one of these sensors, mount them to an Arduino-driven plotter, and then take readings in an X/Y plane, you'd have all the elements needed for a simple single-pixel scanner.
In the video seen below, Kerry D. Wong does just this using his hacked HP 7044A plotter to scan a picture, recording RGB color values in a 128 x 128 grid. As the device scans, the Arduino Due used for control passes these values to a computer, which assembles them together into a low-resolution image.
You can find more details on the project, including its code, in Wong's blog post here.
To address the limitations of today's fixed-face watches, researchers have come up with an actuated smartphone concept that physically moves itself using an Arduino Due, Bluetooth and several motors.
Receiving Internet notifications has gone from using a computer, to checking them on your smartphone, to now simply seeing them come in on your wearable device. On the other hand, you still have to rotate your wrist into the right position to see the screen. Worse yet, if you want to show others what is on your wrist, you may even have to twist your arm awkwardly.
Fortunately, there is a possible solution to this scourge in the form of Cito, which bills itself as "An Actuated Smartwatch for Extended Interactions." This design can move in five different directions–rotates, hinges, translates, orbits and rises–potentially making viewing more convenient, or even providing haptic feedback. Prototype electronics are housed inside a control box on the upper arm, but presumably would become much smaller in a production version.
You can see the team's entire paper here, or read this write-up for a more involved summary.
Browse around eBay for an original Altair 8800 and you quickly find that the price range is in the thousands of dollars. If you are a collector and have some money in your pocket maybe that's okay. But if you want the Altair 8800 experience on a budget, you can build yourself a clone with an Arduino. [David] kindly shared the build details on his Arduino Project Hub post. Using an Arduino Due (or a Mega for 25% of original speed), the clone can accurately reproduce the behavior of the Altair's front panel elements. We covered a similar project in the past, using the Arduino Uno.
While not overly complicated to build one, you will need a fair amount of patience so you can solder all the 36 LEDs, switches, transistors, and resistors but in the end, you'll end up with a brand new computer to play with. In 1975, an assembled Altair 8800 Computer was selling for $621 and $439 for an unassembled version. Sourced right, your clone would be under 50 bucks. Not bad.
The simulator comes with a bunch of software for you to try out and even games like Kill-the-Bit and Pong. BASIC and Assembler example programs are included in the emulator software and can easily be loaded.
In addition, the simulator includes some extra functions and built-in software for the Altair which are accessible via the AUX1/AUX2 switches on the front panel (those were included but not used on the original Altair). From starting different games to mount disks in an emulated disk drive, there are just too many functions to describe here. You can take a look at the simulator documentation for more information.
After winning the South African National Barista Championship in 2009, Neil Maree decided to actually start a company to make coffee roasting equipment. Genio was the result, and after some work, his machines can now roast coffee to perfection using recipe input via an Android app.
Once instructions are transferred, a heavily modified Arduino Due controls the roaster depending on user preferences. Maree first tried an analog solution, then used a PLC before deciding that the Arduino was what he needed.
All of Genio's roasters have a control panel with a variety of traditional switches and knobs, and then a not-so-traditional tablet mount. The app sends a "roast profile" to the roaster over a Bluetooth connection.

Although smartwatches were designed to be an easy-to-use alternative for your smartphone, interacting with their touchscreens still requires your opposite hand to be free. So what do you do when you're carrying a bag of groceries or holding onto a bus handle?
This is the problem a Dartmouth-led team set out to solve with WristWhirl, a smartwatch prototype that uses the wrist wearing the device as a joystick to perform common touchscreen gestures with one-handed continuous input, while freeing up the other hand for other tasks.
WristWhirl was built using a two-inch TFT display and a plastic watch strap equipped with a dozen infrared proximity sensors and a piezo vibration sensor, which is connected to an Arduino Due board. Commands are then made by moving the hand as if it were operating a joystick, while a finger pinch turns the sensors on/off to indicate the start or end of a gesture.
For starters, the team implemented four sample applications with off-the-shelf games and Google Maps to illustrate potential use cases.
Four usage scenarios for WristWhirl were tested: 1) a gesture shortcuts app was created, which allowed users to access shortcuts by drawing gestures; 2) a music player app was created, which allowed users to scroll through songs through wrist-swipes and play a selected song by double tapping the thumb and index fingers; 3) a map app was implemented for which 2D maps could be panned and zoomed depending on where the watch was held in relation to one's body; and 4) game input, which often requires continuous input was tested, for which Tetris was played using a combination of wrist swipes, wrist extension and wrist flexion.

A team from ETH Zurich has created an incredible submersible robot called Scubo as a way to scan entire coral reefs. Equipped with six onboard webcams, the omnidirectional device is capable of exploring the deep sea from every angle. What's more, users can take a virtual dive by throwing on a pair of VR glasses to make it feel as if they're swimming with marine life.
Scubo consists of an Arduino Due for hard real-time tasks, an Intel NUC for high-performance calculation, an IMU, and a pressure sensor — all housed inside a carbon cuboid. Eight thrusters are symmetrically mounted to the outside, one at each corner, while a tube goes through the box to ensure proper water flow and to keep the electronics cool. The system is neutrally buoyed and weight in the form of screws can be added to the thruster arms to adjust buoyancy and the center of gravity.
A tether connects Scubo to a computer outside the water and the power source, which allows the camera pictures to be viewed live and the batteries to be recharged with a steady current. According to the team, this highly extends the operation time, though the batteries would last approximately 120 minutes under standard conditions without recharging.
Scubo is based on ROS, and with the rosserial_arduino package, they are able to send or receive commands on a laptop from the Arduino. This enables them to steer the bot with a SpaceMouse joystick while monitoring all the sensor messages (pressure, leakage, temperature, voltage, etc.) at the same time.
It should be noted that Scubo isn't only restricted to coral research either. In fact, the underwater machine was built with modularity and entertainment in mind as well. Users can easily attach their own sensors, lights and HD cameras via one of five universal ports.
We are confident that Scubo has great potential for the future. Since every necessary sensor is already implemented, Scubo can be programmed to scan a coral reef or any other place fully autonomous. Telepresence could be used in many aquariums or in the sea for entertainment. Because of the module ports different kinds of sensors and devices can be connected and used, for example to generate a geographical map of the sea floor or to inspect boats.
Whether corals in the Caribbean, the shore of Lake Zurich or even a virtual dive in an aquarium — Scubo not only convinces with its captivating technology but also with its modern design. Innovation starts when science meets entertainment.

Col. Marc Hoffmeister, assistant commandant of the U.S. Army Engineer School, addresses engineering needs and concerns at the Multi-Domain Operations Joint Technology Demonstration held at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center in Vicksburg, Miss., August 7, 2019. The event encouraged discussions concerning technology gaps, joint doctrine, training and collaboration to deliver technology to the Warfighter quickly and at all levels.
Participants pose for a group photo during the Multi-Domain Operations Joint Technology Demonstration held at the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center in Vicksburg, Miss., August 7, 2019. The event emphasized how multi-laboratory, multi-disciplinary teams can engineer the solutions needed to succeed within a single domain or the more difficult option of crossing domain boundaries such as sea-to-land or land-to-air.
VICKSBURG, Miss. -- The U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center held a Multi-Domain Operations Joint Technology Demonstration, August 7, 2019, at the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory in Vicksburg, Mississippi, showcasing more than 18 ERDC MDO technologies.
The event titled, "Engineering the Theater to Win during Multi-Domain Operations – Anywhere, Anytime," was structured around the ERDC's role during the World War II D-Day invasion and illustrated how the organization continues to develop and deliver solutions that support the Warfighter and Department of Defense today. The exhibition demonstrated how multi-laboratory, multi-disciplinary teams can engineer solutions needed to succeed within a single domain or over multiple domain boundaries such as sea-to-land or land-to-air.
By studying the past, researchers are able to define the future. "The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' research and development mission has supported the military since World War II," said Nick Boone, technical director at ERDC's Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory. "Few people know that we enabled critical operations at D-Day such as the amphibious landings at Normandy.
"We continue to advance the state of the possible by developing modern methods to cross these boundaries."
"Our flumes tested float bridges 80 years ago, and today they evaluate the limits of the Improved Ribbon Bridge," said Dr. Ty Wamsley, director of CHL. "Today we simulate complex projects."
ERDC simulation tools allow virtual mission rehearsal in all domains to identify operational challenges. Ship simulation gives commanders insight into the realm of the possible with regards to navigability of the landing sites, allowing them to better assess risk with more accurate Go/No-Go thresholds determined through simulation. Once on the ground, the Autonomous Navigation Virtual Environment Laboratory is an interactive, real-time engineering modeling and simulation software tool built specifically to assist in the research, design, testing and evaluation of intelligent ground vehicles.
However, simulation isn't the only tool ERDC researchers are using. CHL researchers have developed the Mini-Robotic Submersible Dredge that provides organic capability to deepen ports or establish "duck ponds" if a beach landing location is insufficiently deep, mud-flats are encountered or world-class ports need improvement. If ports are damaged due to degradation or kinetic attack, CHL's Multifunctional Assessment and Reconnaissance Vehicle I can provide hydro-surveys of damaged port facilities where the MARV II can navigate more rapid and rough waters potentially encountered at bridge piles or river sites. And GSL's robotic Mine Clearing Line Charges provide unmanned capability to explosively breach minefields without placing Soldiers at risk if enemy obstacles such as minefields are emplaced to control troop movements.
ERDC researchers have also turned their eyes on the sky. "Eventually the sea and land domains will be difficult to maneuver through, so modern methods to open the air domain are needed, such as expedient airfield damage repair, sight selection of helicopter landing zones and other ways to get our forces to the fight through the air," said Boone.
"I can't think of any other organization that possesses the talent and capability to not only understand the problem, but to also recognize the speed needed to turn it around and provide a solution that is easily implemented in the field," said Col. Marc Hoffmeister, assistant commandant of the U.S. Army Engineer School.
Hoffmeister, along with guests from Army Futures Command (Maneuver Support, Sustainment and Intelligence); the 416th Theater Engineer Command; the 7th Transportation Brigade (Expeditionary); the British Army; the U.S. Army Program Executive Office, Combat Support & Combat Service Support; and the U.S. Marine Corps participated in discussions concerning technology gaps, joint doctrine, training and collaboration to deliver technology to the Warfighter quickly and at all levels.
"ERDC continues to deliver solutions that will help us win in Multi-Domain Operations," said Boone. "We did it in World War II, and we know we can do it again, because we have great engineers and scientists on board to make it happen."
"ERDC laboratory researchers can adapt their knowledge to solve problems of national interest," said Wamsley. "We discover, develop, and deliver new ways to make the world safer and better every day."

FlexHeat™ Triple Radiant Element The FlexHeat™ triple radiant element is like having three elements in one. A 6" inner ring is great for smaller pots and pans, while 9" and 12" outer rings make room to heat larger cookware.
It's only 2 weeks in, but no issues, it does not exhaust a lot of heat from vents, bottom drawer for storage is on the smaller side, but the oven has so much space!!! It passes the wife test, glass does not scratch easily, or bubble up from spilled goods. The door glass and viewing with the light on is fantastic, controls are solid, and it cooks everything evenly. If you are updating beware, my grilled cheese in this broiler cooked twice as fast. Convection is very quiet. The oven is sealed very well, it does not give off a lot of heat around the door seal or sides.
I have been using it for 1 week and enjoy using it, but still accustomed to the different controls.
i purchased this appliance about 2 months ago, and we recently installed it, and I love it! It is user friendly, attractive, easy to clean and works wonderfully. Looking forward to lots of great meals in our future!
Love the way it works. I like the steam clean.
I like everything about the range except that it should fit tight to the counter. There is enough space that crumbs and liquid can slide between the counters and the range. Mine replaced a range with an over-hang on the counter. Makes a more attractive look and prevents food from entering the space--even though the space is very small. This new look also required adjustments to my granite countertops as they weren't exactly 30 inches. However, that didn't matter with the old range. The dimensions were more forgiving.
I bought this range around Thanksgiving and so far I really do like it. The sleek, modern design really makes my remodeled kitchen POP! I am very pleased with all the options this stove has and how evenly it cooks. If I had one complaint, it would be the bottom drawer for storage, it is itsy bitsy but if it were any bigger, it would take away from the extra large oven space. Highly recommend this stove.
Love the big oven. Cooked a turkey, a ham and dressing all at once on thanksgiving.
After first use of range, I found it difficult to control the burner temperature of the two front burners. Neither would turn down to a simmer on their lowest setting. More troublesome is that the skillet apparently scratched up the supposedly ceramic coating. I am also disappointed to find out the fit guarantee expired in September, which means I must spend $75 for the trim kit . I should have kept our 20 year old kitchen aid stove.
The beautiful sleek design is a great addition to my kitchen. The selection of burner sizes are so many that it accommodates whatever I am cooking. Also the option to bake convection is a plus. The fan for convection baking is so quiet you have to check to see if it is running. True european convection is a must. Other brands I have purchased are very noisy.
I love this stove. It works great and the fifth burner for just keeping it warm is great. It sure beats the one I had bought over 20 years ago. We got it for a great price and couldn't be happier.
We have had this range for only about 10 days, and we are very happy thus far! No issues.
I am enjoying the large cooktop space and oven.
I have been using my new range for a week now. I am so satisfied with its features and the ease in using them.
We bought this range because it seemed like a good value for the money and it was made by a reputable manufacturer of kitchen appliances. I'm glad I put more weight on the good reviews and ignored the few bad reviews. This is not just a range. After reading the users manual and using the range. I consider this a Culinary Instrument. Everything works very precisely and almost everything is customizable down to the timer beep loudness. There are many fine tune able parameters. You are prompted on the display for the options available for many of the features.. This range is very easy to use as long as you read the users manual to understand the features available to you. Being an Electrical Engineer, I appreciate the control and flexibility of the instruments I use. I feel that this range is definitely a step into the 21st century at an affordable price. To top it off it looks impressive too. We've only been using it a week so my experience with it is limited. If things start to degrade I'll surely post an update. BTW installation was a breeze. Leveling the feet was made easy by pushing the range in place and removing the drawer, then reaching underneath and adjusting the leveling feet by hand. Removing the drawer was the most complicated part of the whole process.
I have never owned a Whirlpool applicace and am duly impressed! Really like the large cooktop with several options for various cooking utensils. The warming burner is great, use it all the time. Especially like the large oven, it's possible to put two muffin tins side by side. The controls on the top are ideal for me. Only negative is the bottom stove drawer gets extremely hot when I'm using the oven (only reason for 4 stars).
Really like the looks of the stove. Especially like the controls on the top and enjoy all the choices I have. The warming burner is great and very useful. The oven is large and bakes evenly.

Officials quiet over potential local tuberculosis case
Grand County commissioners held an executive session Monday afternoon to discuss a confidential issue with public health officials potentially regarding tuberculosis.
While the exact topic of the executive session was kept confidential, the standard practice for executive sessions, a review of the board's meeting agenda lays out the relevant state statute under which the executive session was called, specifically highlighting C.R.S. 25-4-511.
The state statute pertains to tuberculosis.
Tuberculosis is a potentially serious infectious bacterial disease that mainly affects the lungs. Tuberculosis is communicable to others through microscopic droplets released into the air, usually via a cough, sneeze or when speaking.
The statute lays out the duties of the board of health and departments as it relates to confidentiality of records. Among other topics, the statute vests authority in boards of health to "direct any program of investigation and examination of suspected tuberculosis cases, including persons who have had contact with a person who has suspected or confirmed active tuberculosis."
The statute additionally stipulates that any records retained by public health agencies or county coroner's offices as a result of any investigation of tuberculosis "shall be kept strictly confidential."
Grand County Public Health Director Brene Belew-LaDue told Sky-Hi News following the meeting that she could neither confirm nor deny the existence of any tuberculosis cases in Grand County, citing HIPAA laws.
"Grand County Public Health will be proactive in protecting the health and safety of our residents and visitors," she said.

Family-friendly policies
Research and teaching Departments and schools Computer Science About us Family-friendly policies
The Department of Computer Science sets out in this page its commitment for supporting staff in relation to maternity, paternity and adoption.
The Department follows and implements all College policies and procedures in relation to maternity, paternity and adoption, which can be found in the HR website under Family Friendly Policies. This page does not fully transcribe those policies, and should therefore be read in conjunction with the official College documents.
In each section below, we start by summarizing College policy and then add (in bold) Department-specific policy items that reflect our ethos.
In relation to adoption, departmental policies that apply to maternity also apply to the individual who adopts or, in the case of a couple jointly adopting, the partner that the couple chooses to take adoption leave. Paternity policies apply to the partner of an individual who adopts or the other member of a couple who are adopting jointly.
The Department is clear that there will be no discrimination and bias of any form in relation to staff who benefit from these policies. The Department is committed to ensuring equality and diversity and the purpose of this policy statement is to ensure that parents and parents-to-be have the opportunity to integrate the development of a career with their family responsibilities.
You can also download our Departmental Maternity/Paternity/Adoption policy statement.
Support offered to staff before they go on maternity/adoption leave
All pregnant employees, irrespective of length of service, are entitled to reasonable paid time-off during normal working hours to receive antenatal care made on the advice of a registered medical practitioner, registered midwife or registered health visitor. During the time-off for antenatal care the College pays staff at their normal hourly rate of pay.
Staff are asked to advise their line manager as far in advance as is possible of the time and date of any appointment. Line managers carry out a risk assessment to identify any hazards to the staff member's health or that of her unborn child, typically within five days of being notified and with input from the staff member and advice from the Health and Safety Department; they also agree annual-leave arrangements prior to maternity leave commencing wherever possible. Line managers are also asked to ensure that the staff member is not treated less favourably as a result of her pregnancy.
Time-off for pre-adoption leave up to the permitted number of days are paid at the employee's normal rate of basic pay.
The Department specifically commits to being flexible in accommodating any specific needs of the member of staff.
Support offered to staff during maternity/adoption leave
Line managers are asked to make reasonable contact with the staff member during their maternity/adoption leave depending on the individual circumstances and as agreed between both parties prior to the commencement of the leave; this is so that the staff member is kept up-to-date with changes in the workplace, including opportunities for promotion, or to discuss their return to work. They are also asked to agree with the staff member any Keeping in Touch Days (KIT Days) that they may wish to uptake.
The Department commits to providing, within reason, resources that the staff member may need to maintain departmental contact, and research activities or teaching-related initiatives or pedagogic research during leave.
The Department specifically commits, within its means, to ensuring that, while on leave, no member of staff will be discriminated against in relation to research projects in which they are involved, in particular that they are kept informed of all project activities and given the opportunity to attend meetings, physically or remotely.
Support offered to staff when returning to work after maternity/adoption leave
On return to work, line managers agree a meeting with the staff member for dealing with any housekeeping matters and ensuring that they settle in smoothly; this includes a return-to-work plan for which the Department of Human Resources provides a typical checklist to be adapted to the circumstances.
The College makes every effort to consider and accommodate requests for reasonable adjustments to workload following a period of maternity/adoption leave in order to enable the member of staff to settle back into work on a gradual basis.
Staff are also advised to consult the Working Families Web site for guidance.
Depending on circumstances, to support their research career, the Department will consider a reduction in teaching and administration load for academic staff on non-teaching focused contracts during an initial period after their return from maternity or adoption leave. Some funding will also be made available for equipment, travel to conferences, and research visits to (or from) collaborators.
Support offered to staff when taking paternity leave or shared parental leave
The College pays full pay for both the first and second week of Ordinary Paternity Leave; this payment will include SSP if applicable. There is flexibility in changing the date on which staff members want their ordinary paternity leave to start, for example if the baby is born before it is due.
The College's policy on Shared Parental Leave applies to members of staff regardless of whether they are the mother or the partner. The College may pay more generous occupational shared parental leave pay ("OShPP") to employees who meet certain conditions; this currently reflects the rate payable through the College occupational maternity pay taking into account the compulsory two-week maternity leave period following the birth of the child.
Shared Parental Leave provisions are complex and the College encourages members of staff to clarify their Shared Parental Leave rights with the Human Resources Department to ensure that they access their full leave entitlement if they so wish and that requests are handled as smoothly as possible.
Support offered to staff with children
The University has an on-campus nursery, the Englefield Green Nursery and Preschool, which is managed by Bright Horizons. This is for the children of staff, students and the local community. Staff and students have priority places when a waiting list is operated. This is an HMRC work-placed nursery with tax advantages for RHUL parents who send their children there: this is a salary-sacrifice scheme whereby Childcare Vouchers are issued in exchange for a reduction in salary of the same amount. Tax and National Insurance contributions are not paid on the vouchers, which is where the financial savings are made.
The Department is very accommodating in granting (informal) flexible working to staff. Typically, working from home is permitted as long as it does not interfere with the functioning of the Department.
Where possible, the scheduled departmental committee meetings are held in the afternoon, starting early enough to finish before 4pm; no departmental meetings are organised during school half-term breaks unless it is strictly necessary to meet College requirements, for example in relation to the June exam period. Ad-hoc meetings are scheduled in consultation with the people involved. The dates of meetings are publicised well in advance and staff are encouraged to select the most suitable dates using online tools.

Q: windows XP connection to internet problems I have a windowx xp sp 3 on my laptop, from several month ago I have a problem, when I connect to internet and after a while, when I try to open a web page, browser message shows that cant connect to page, and after several refresh , I can view that.this problem occur on all sites in that time.
I change my ISP, but problem didnt solve. I check and see if I use dial up, LAN card or wireless , the result is same. in this time all ping request timed out.
I install a fresh copy of windows and for a while every things work fine, and again I have this problem now.I check and see I can't connect to my local network address when this problem occur.
I have F-Prot antivirus and it is up to date.
How can I fix this problem?
Thanks
Mehdi

A: Try to run without the anti-virus.
If this solves the problem, find another anti-virus.
If it doesn't, check if the problem occurs while booting in Safe mode, to determine if the problem is caused by an installed product.

Q: a proof regarding ordinary least squares I am reading a statistics textbook. On page 271, in the section 'a brief derivation', the author proves a theorem about the ordinary least squares method. He proves that the size of error is minimized, when the error vector $\vec{\epsilon}$ is orthogonal to $\bf{X}$. However, I don't understand how he derives.
$$ \vec{\epsilon_{n}}^{T}\vec{\epsilon_{n}}
 = (\vec{\epsilon} - \bf{X}\vec{\iota})^{T}(\vec{\epsilon} - \bf{X}\vec{\iota})
 = \vec{\epsilon}^{T}\vec{\epsilon} - 2\vec{\iota}^{T}\bf{X}^{T}\vec{\epsilon} + \vec{\iota}^{T}\bf{X}^{T}\bf{X}\vec{\iota} $$
Is it trivial that $\vec{\iota}^{T}\bf{X}^{T}\vec{\epsilon} = \vec{\iota}\bf{X} \vec{\epsilon}^{T} $ ?

A: Keep in mind that the term $\epsilon^t\epsilon$ is a scalar (possibly real), which means that both $\iota^tX^t\epsilon$ and $\epsilon^t X\iota$ are also scalars. Furthermore
$$
(\iota^tX^t\epsilon)^t = \epsilon^t X\iota
$$
To summarize: one of the terms is the transpose of the other one, both are scalars, the transpose of a scalar is the same, therefore, the terms are the same


We are hours away from hearing about the blessings that the Fed will bestow upon us and the market is slightly down. It is at these times we need to pull back and take a look at a longer perspective and look at what might be ahead. Wall Street is hoping that Uncle Ben will uncork something truly unanticipated, but in reality his options are pretty limited.
In general, the consensus is that the Fed will go forward with Operation Twist where they attempt to buy longer dated treasuries and sell shorter dated ones. The impact of this will be to drive longer term interest rates even lower (Grandma, you happy about that?) and possibly move up shorter term rates.
If Operation Twist is implemented and successful, we probably won't see much real improvement on the regular Joe or on business owners as people and businesses simply aren't borrowing and lower rates won't make much of a difference. It will have an impact on banks though, and this could really hurt them as they essentially fund in the short term and lend long, so this compresses their margins and drives their funding costs higher and reduces their income potential on lending. I think this is why you are seeing all the bank stock prices fall.
The Fed is already trying to bail out Europe by providing swap lines where ample dollars are available no matter how horrible business conditions are and in fact we are seeing almost everyone BUT the Fed walk, (no run!) away from European banks. This week we've heard that major corporations in Europe are taking their reserve deposits from banking institutions and trying to deposit them directly with the ECB rather than risk losing money at a bank. That is an indication of confidence isn't it?
So here is the deal, we don't really know what the real impact will be besides that it will move the markets. If Benny doesn't oblige and give us something awesome, you could see the markets drop significantly. If the Fed gives us some great news and tells us that free money will be available to the financial elite forever without any cost, we could easily rocket to the April highs from earlier this year. From my perspective I think we are in a no-man's land right now as you look at a 4 year chart of the DJIA. Dating back to July of 2008, we were right at 11,750 right before a nasty fall all the way into March of 2009. Guess where we are right now? You got it, right at 11,350. We have some support at 11,050.
This chart tells me that we are playing around in a range that I don't want to trade until I have confirmation of a direction. If we see real disappointment I might hold off and not even attempt a buy till real support at 9,800. If we rocket higher with a vengeance and blow up and through 11,800 that might be a nice area to buy.
Even if I am a buyer, you cannot forget that Europe is just one week, month, or year away from having Greece default and blowing up the whole Euro experiment. It is doomed and it is just so amazing to me to see Greek politicians put their citizens through hell to avoid a lesser hell. The obvious problem is that Greeks are going to hell, it just would seem rational to go to one of your choosing, rather than going to one that is picked by the IMF or ECB. If the Euro falls, the dollar automatically gets huge inflows and you can wipe away any stock market gains for the last couple of years. It is hard to say what would happen to gold at that moment, probably a huge spike and then a fall. I mention these things because they will happen and we need to be aware of it no matter what our independent banking cartel does today.

If you can imagine seeing a train leave a station with the understanding that it is going to experience an agonizing, slow motion and unavoidable wreck, the movie Judy gives you a gut wrenching, trackside view of such a journey. Along for the ride are various audiences, friends, family, fans and industry parasites that witness the spectacle and ride on the coat tails of Judy Garland's career, spanning forty-five years, beginning at age two.
Judy Garland became a household name with her performance in the Wizard of Oz in 1939. The film won best song that year, sung by Garland, and was nominated for best picture. But it was a big year for movies. Gone With the Wind took best picture. Both films were directed by Victor Fleming.
This is essentially a one-woman show starring Renee Zellweger. I was unconvinced by previews but must say after seeing the film that I can't imagine anyone doing a better job of channeling the late Garland. The film recounts Judy's life at a stage during the winter of 1968 when drugs and alcohol had derailed her career in the United States, causing her to leave her children with ex husband Sid Luft while she attempted to pull herself together in England.
As a biopic of a famous figure, Judy is interesting but not outstanding. It's Zellweger's portrayal of the fierce and fragile paradox embodied in the tiny (4' 11") legendary performer that kicks this movie up a couple of levels and makes it worth seeing. For those old enough to remember, or current fans with audio collections, the fact that Zellweger sang in the film is courageous. Garland's vocal range and smooth delivery deteriorated over the years, in part due to her chronic smoking habit. The warbling vibrato she became known for is seen by some as a tactic to reach notes as she aged. But she could still belt out songs and thrill her audiences, fueled by a combination of drugs, alcohol, adrenaline, fame and transcendent willpower.
I remember Judy Garland from appearances on the Tonight Show, first with Jack Paar and later with Johnny Carson. (Thanks Mom and Dad for letting me stay up late and watch.) She was one of those late night couch dwellers that oozed charisma and was just quirky enough to be really interesting. Zellweger captures Judy's mannerisms and jerky stage presence but just can't approach her vocal talent. That should not be taken as criticism. She did an admirable, believable job. That said, she will probably be nominated for an academy award for this role.
Flashbacks to Garland at sixteen help explain the extent to which she spends her life as a victim of abuse at the hands of parents, producers and a string of husbands. She is never taught, or allowed, to make good choices, suffers from insomnia and is fed pills to sustain her through eighteen hour days. This becomes habitual and carries her through her early career. The abused becomes the abuser.
Zellweger is no stranger to controversy. Her rather strangely changed appearance following a lengthy absence from the limelight had the media speculating about all sorts of unidentified conditions. She claims that she just…aged. So be it.
Even in death, Garland could find no initial peace. Her remains were moved from Manhattan to Hollywood and re-interred at the request of her children in 2017. Her death was ruled an accident resulting from accumulated barbiturates, not a suicide. She was only 47 years old.
The film ends with a final song on stage. Yes, that song. You know the one.
Judy (2019) runs 1 hour 58 minutes and is rated PG-13

If you are using the NewsPublisher extra for MODX Revolution and would like to restrict users to editing only pages they created, there's a fairly simple solution.
When you put the [[NpEditThisButton]] tag on a page, front-end visitors who are logged in will see a button labeled "Edit" on each page. Clicking on it will launch NewsPublisher with that page loaded in the editor. The secret to keeping users from editing other user's pages is to just not show them the button. This is easy to do with a simple snippet and a tag in your Template.
That's all there is to it. When MODX sees the snippet tag, it will run the snippet and replace the tag with what the snippet returns. In the snippet, we first set the output to an empty string. Next, we compare the user's ID with the createdby field of the resource. If they match, the user created the page and we set the output to a tag that will show the "Edit" button.
The end result is that if the user created the page, they will see the "Edit" button. If not, there will be nothing at all where the snippet tag was.
The only catch is that you might have originally created the pages for the users, or used an extra that created them. In that case, the createdby field may contain your ID instead of the user's ID. No users will be able to edit any pages until you reset that field. Fortunately, the Batcher extra provides a relatively easy way to do that.
In Batcher, put a checkmark next to all the pages of belonging to a particular user. Click on the "Bulk Actions" dropdown and select "Change Authors" option. Click on the "Created By" dropdown and select the user. Then click on the "Save" button. Once you've dont that, the user's ID will be stored in the Resource's createdby field and the snippet will work as it should.
better yet, buy my book: MODX: The Official Guide.

Brave daughter to fly sky high in memory of Mum
Penny Watson is stepping out of her comfort zone to take part in a tandem skydive to help raise funds for Sheffield Hospitals Charity in memory of her Mum who died in 2018.
West Yorkshire based Penny is completing the 15000ft skydive with all proceeds going to the Brearley Wards at the Northern General Hospital.
Penny's Mum, Patricia, received treatment and care on Brearley Ward 4 before she passed away after a three-year battle with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The department provide respiratory support to patients with lung disease.
To help Sheffield Hospitals Charity (SHC) and the work that they do, Penny will be taking to the skies of Hilbaldstow, North Lincolnshire, on April 24 to complete her skydive.
Penny is aiming to raise £700 and said: "In my Mum's final days she was supported by the staff on Brearley Ward 4 with the upmost respect and care where they made her feel comfortable before she went home to be at peace – this is something I will be eternally grateful for.
"My Mum was afraid of heights so by jumping out of a plane I will be able to feel close to her again and I know that she would be extremely proud.
"To say thank you to the staff on all of the Brearley Wards I wanted to do something to contribute to the work that they do so that they can continue to offer care, support and lifesaving treatment."
The Brearley Wards at Northern General Hospital are managed by Sheffield Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust. The ward specialises in respiratory medicine caring for a number of patients including those with lung cancer, asthma, bronchiectasis, pulmonary embolism and tuberculosis.
SHC Community Fundraiser Kimberley France, said: "At Sheffield Hospitals Charity we are always pleased to hear of inspirational stories like Penny's where people want to give something back to the charity and help others.
"Penny's efforts will go towards ensuring that respiratory patients continue to receive exceptional care and support on the Brearley Wards, and we wish her the best of luck in her leap of faith."

Apple MacBook Air (11-inch, Late 2010) review
In the second part of our coverage of the new MacBook Air range, we take a look at the new 11in model. Is this sleek and small ultra-portable laptop worth its high price? Read our review to find out.
by: Alan Lu
1. Apple MacBook Air (11-inch, Late 2010) review
We've already reviewed the 13in version of the MacBook Air, Apple's 1.33kg ultra-portable laptop. That model isn't the lightest, smallest Mac laptop available though that honour goes to the new 11.6in version which weighs little more than 1kg. It's more comparable in size and weight to the iPad or a netbook than it is to any other ultra-portable laptop we've seen. Carrying it around all day is almost effortless and its low height means it's more comfortable to use in cramped spaces, such as an economy-class airline seat.
Like the larger 13in model, this new Air isn't just very light, it's also eye-catchingly thin. The tapered design is just under 2cm thick at its chunkiest point and less than half a centimetre thick at its thinnest point. Despite its slender, lightweight build it feels rigid, robust and very well-made thanks to its aluminium construction.
A few compromises have been made to achieve this very low weight and slender profile. Unlike the 13in model, there's no memory card reader so if you want to copy data off SD cards then you'll need to occupy one of the two USB2 ports with an external memory card reader. Like all previous Airs, there's no built-in Ethernet or optical drive, although Apple sells a portable USB DVD writer and a USB-to-10/100Mbit/s Ethernet adapter separately.
More disappointingly, there's no built-in 3G. Not only is 3G internet access increasingly a necessity, not an optional extra, for frequent travellers, a dongle would occupy yet another precious USB port.

Microsoft Surface Pro review: Still worth buying?

1.) Why should I have an Auction?
When looking at the the bigger picture, auctions bring in the most money. It is a proven fact.
When selling a complete household through our service, you will receive the "HIGHEST NET RETURN". Additionally, an on-site auction offers the convenience of not having to pack and move the sale items to another location.
2.) Why should I hire an Auctioneer?
A good Auctioneer is always worth more than his or her fee. The Auctioneer will serve as an overseer of the liquidation of all the items to be sold and will bring in the general public, collectors, dealers, and the right special interest buyers to receive the best prices for your special treasures.
Identification of the value of antiques, collectibles, and other desirable household items and knowledge of the best selling strategy for their auction, takes years of study and on-the job experience. It involves continual research, updating, and networking. In short, it takes a full-time professional who specializes in estate liquidation at auction, to fully realize true compensation for the variety of contents being sold. The extra money that an experienced auctioneer can realize for you on just a few items can easily pay the commission for the entire auction.
3.) What items may be sold at an Auction Sale?
Any condition antique furniture, antiques, art, bric-a-brac, china, collections, silver & gold US. coins, pre-1935 US. paper currency, pocket watches, advertising signs & items, clocks, metal toys and banks, farm toy tractors, railroad items; fine furniture, glassware, pottery, jewelry, kitchenware, cookie jars, hunting & fishing related items, duck decoys, sportsman items, military items, oriental rugs, paintings, porcelain, prints, oil paintings, toy trains, railroad items, wicker furniture, silver, crocks and stoneware, tools, office equipment and most used household items. Additionally, tools, power tools, small and major appliances, yard equipment, automobiles, trucks, ATV's, machinery, vintage clothing, books and various everyday items make for fantastic sale items. There are no limits to the various kinds of items which you may sell. Our suggestion is to allow the auctioneer to consult with you prior to throwing away, selling on your own or donating any items, to ensure enough quantity still remains to qualify for a successful auction.
4.) What advertising will be done?
Ads are written uniquely for each auction to attract the appropriate clientele. Our service will place creative advertisements in the proper local, regional and national advertising mediums. A Plus Auctions will also include listing your auction on our internet website auction calendar page, which is checked regularly by hundreds of buyers. We utilize our large exclusive, email notification database of special interest buyers. We also send out mail fliers to notify prospective buyers of your auction. When available, interactive internet location maps are provide from our website directing buyers to your location. Day of auction where permitted, we will place road/curbside signs also directing buyers to your location.
5.) How much lead time does an Auctioneer need to prepare and conduct a sale?
The more time an Auctioneer has to prepare the sale, the higher the proceeds will be. Top prices come from the proper marketing. Sorting, arranging and cleaning greatly increases household items salability, and this can take time. Generally, (4-5) weeks from a completed service agreement are sufficient in preparing an average auction. While specialty sales may require as much as 2-months to be properly promoted in the right trade publications. The actual auction is generally conducted in one (1) day.
6.) What is done to protect my property?
Small valuable items are arranged in jewelry display cases, with a staff member assigned to watch the items and assist in customer viewing. Normally a plain clothes security person is in the crowd watching.
7.) When are Auctions usually conducted?
In this area, on-site auctions are normally conducted on Saturday's or Sunday's, Spring through Fall. Thursday evenings work well for smaller auctions in the Summer months. The day of, and hours are determined in accordance with the uniqueness of each individual auction and time of year.
8.) What do you do with items that do not sell?
We take great pride in being able to sell to the walls… at very good prices and with little remaining. On average, when selling a complete household, the remaining non-salable items will fill two (2) bushel baskets.
9.) Do you negotiate prices?
At an Auction the prices per item (s) being sold are negotiated higher rather than being reduced.
10.) How much will it cost to have an Auction service arrange and manage an auction?
Auction services usually receive a percentage of the gross proceeds of the sale. The commission rate varies with the size, the total estimated value and the what is required to prepare for your auctions success. The expenses that are associated with an auction should be viewed as an investment… and not as a cost. The seller is normally paid within (5) business days following the sale.
11.) Do I need to be present during the sale?
This can go either way. Some owners stay and watch their belongings sell while visiting with friends and neighbors. Other sellers want to take off for the day once the auction is set up, then come back afterwards. We will take all the help we can get in carrying merchandise out to be displayed for auction. The owner, or Personal Representative does not need to be present during the actual auction as long as we have access to the premises.
12.) What do you do to maintain safe conditions during the sale?
Every effort is made to identify potential hazards. Safety measures and necessary precautions are verbally implemented, minimizing potential liabilities.
13.) Do we sign a service contract?
A service contract is required by the State of Wisconsin Regulations for Auctioneers. I feel it is best to state in simple language just what will be done, and to have this understood and agreed to in writing before any work is started. The Auctioneer will go over the contract with you, explaining clearly the terms and conditions within it and answering any questions you may have. This is a reassuring process, as we wish for you to be completely comfortable and pleased with our service. A contract will eliminate any future doubts.
14.) All right! I will have an auction. Now what do I do?
Call A+ Plus Auctions for an auction evaluation. Prior to the evaluation appointment, pre-decide which items will be excluded from the auction. If possible, remove the items from the premises, or secure in one lockable area.
Keep the telephone and utilities connected. These are needed before, during, and sometimes after the sale.
Have a good overview of all the items for auction. The Auctioneer will need to make a listing for proper marketing.
Secure all extra keys, and or have the door locks changed.
Schedule enough time before and after the sale for preparation and cleanup.


In the 3 /4 class, girls develop a deeper sense of self, as well as a sense of school community. Together with parents, our teachers provide children with opportunities to progress in all areas including social emotional, language, fine and gross motor, mathematics, science and social studies. Throughout the day, natural opportunities encourage girls to become independent. The girls are encouraged to verbally express their needs, ideas and opinions, participate in conversations, listen, ask questions and share in front a group. Girls in the day care program remain with the same teachers for two years to allow the teachers and girls to begin their second year with an established home/school relationship.
The power to learn at this age is almost entirely emotionally-based. Social and emotional learning is the process through which children and adults develop the skills, attitudes and values necessary to understand an manage life tasks such as cognitive learning, forming relationships and adapting to the demands of growing up in today's complex society. Therefore, It's important to encourage this development at this age. CSG enables and empowers our young learners in the day care program to develop their social-emotional values.
The physical education experience in our 3/4 program focuses on the development of both fine and gross motor skills. Students are introduced to locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative concepts in both individual and cooperative learning environments. Additionally, the children explore body movement through a variety of learning styles.
Our all-girl Pre-K program takes a unique approach to common development.
The early years are important years for all aspects of development. Children's natural dispositions to be intellectually curious and to investigate their environment emerge. (Katz, 1995) They learn about reading and writing and become motivated to develop and use a wide variety of related skills. It is important that they have an opportunity to experience active, engaged learning. While academic goals address small units of knowledge and skills, intellectual goals address dispositions; that is, habits of mind that include a variety of tendencies to interpret experience. (Katz,1993).
Through an integrated approach, children have experience in oral language, asking and answering questions about a text, retelling familiar stories and telling own stories, singing and reciting the alphabet, phonological and phonemic awareness and handwriting.
Through a variety of experiences, 3/4 girls learn counting skills orally and using one to one correspondence. They recognize, compare and order whole numbers, explore colors and shapes and demonstrate an understanding of positional and directional words and awareness of patterns.
In the Program for Young Children, teachers recognize, foster and challenge children's natural curiosity and innate sense of inquiry. Children and teachers work collaboratively to co-construct knowledge. Together, they use their senses and scientific equipment to observe, hypothesize, experiment, and analyze to establish science as an exciting, useful, and enjoyable way to learn and relate to the world.
In the classroom and beyond, children explore and experiment with the properties of building materials, respond to "what if" questions asked by teachers, sketch objects and communicate findings in familiar and unfamiliar places, and engage with care, respect and curiosity the outdoor environment.

The jury acquitted George Zimmerman. And just like that, it now seems that a 17 year old black boy had died in vain. I regret the decision reached by this jury, but long before this day came, as I watched this trial, I couldn't help but realize that something like this was eventually going to happen.
George Zimmerman may have been declared NOT GUILTY in the eyes of the court, but he'll be fearful for the rest of his life. It seems almost unimaginable that he did not get any jail time for what happened--whether it was intentional or accidental. We do not know what exactly happened, but if there is any ultimate justice in the end, the death of Trayvon will be punished one way or the other. May his soul rest in perfect peace!

SBCC Women's Soccer Beats Hancock on Sean O'Brien's Late Goals
by Dave Loveton, SBCC Sports Information Specialist November 8, 2019 | 8:28 pm Updated January 5, 2023 | 7:09 am
Freshman forward Sean O'Brien scored in the 78th and 89th minutes on Friday, leading SBCC to a 2-0 women's soccer shutout of Hancock in Santa Maria.
The Vaqueros (9-6-3, 6-1-2) moved back into first place in the tight WSC North race, one point ahead of Ventura (6-2-1) and Cuesta (6-3-1). Hancock fell to 7-7-6 and 3-4-3.
O'Brien took a pass from Elin Hedstroem at 77:45 to make it 1-0. She scored again at 88:20. O'Brien, a transfer from St. Mary's College, is second on the team with seven goals.
The Vaqueros outshot the Bulldogs 17-5 with nine shots on-goal.
"It took us some time to adjust to the uneven grass surface but we were on the front foot from the whistle and tested the keeper a number of times," said SBCC coach John Sisterson. "We kept it up in the second half and I felt it was only a matter of time before we got the breakthrough.
"On the second goal, Sean dribbled around three players and smashed the ball past the keeper from a difficult angle. It was a good result in a challenging game."
The Vaqueros will travel to Ventura for a first-place showdown on Sunday at 6 p.m.

Europe risks losing sight of its meaning
Olivier Poquillion OP, secretary-general of the Commission of the Bishops Conferences of the European Community, warns that the EU needs to rediscover its original peace-building mission
The Church could breathe new life into the EU by reminding it of its mission/ Klaus Ohlenschläger/AFP
By Jean-Christophe Ploquin (Paris) and Céline Schoen (Brussels) | International
The Commission of the Bishops Conferences of the European Community (COMECE) will hold its General Assembly in Brussels on October 28.
Its new secretary general, Olivier Poquillon OP, believes that the European Union runs the risk of disappearing if it fails to rediscover its raison d'être understood as peace and solidarity in plurality.
La Croix: This week the COMECE will hold its first General Assembly since the British vote to leave the European Union. Does Europe have the capacity to overcome these accumulating crises?
Brother Olivier Poquillon: People who speak of crisis often do so because they have a very anxiety-oriented analysis of the facts. The acceleration of time falsifies our perspectives. Looking at Europe today, it is clear that it is experiencing a level of peace and security that is much greater than that which it has experienced over recent centuries. Nevertheless, we are also facing a period of change, particularly technological and anthropological change.
Sociological changes too. Our communities are becoming increasingly plural. How can unity and diversity be articulated in this context?
OP: Let us not believe that there is greater acceptance of diversity today than in the past. On the contrary, our communities are actually tending towards greater uniformity. And dialogue often turns into confrontation.
Moreover, we have moved from a dominant anthropology that was more personalist – I receive life, I share it, my actions have an effect on my peers – towards an ideology that is more individualistic – I am the reference, if it's good for me, it's good full stop. We see this debate in the United Nations, we see it in Europe. The real shock of civilizations is not between East and West, North and South, Muslims and Christians, but between these two competing conceptions of the person.
Can the EU play a federating role, enabling the emergence of a common denominator?
OP: The European Union is not a goal. It is a means. But I don't think that it has lost its relevance. I am aware that communities are mortal. The fact of having lived in Iraq has made me conscious of it. I experienced a country where all the structures existed but nothing worked. A community can die. Not because it no longer has the resources but because it no longer has a meaning or a reason to be. This is a very real risk for Europe today.
Is the very existence of the European Union now in question?
OP: The challenge for the Union is to remember the reason that it was founded, namely peace. However, peace is combat. Choosing to live together is a very real choice today. What do we want to do together? Christians need to participate in the response by taking part in the [peace-]building process.
With respect to Germany, we spent centuries killing each other. And the day that we overcame that fear and decided to live together, we created the premises of the European Union. Today, we are witnessing a radicalization of our societies because we no longer understand our common reference points and because people have a feeling of loss of control over institutions, the economy, technology, etc. This causes a closing in on oneself that can only increase tensions.
COMECE brings together the national churches of all the member states of the EU. Are there divergences or oppositions…?
OP: There are as many differences of opinion within COMECE as there are within a family. In reality, the episcopal conference send a bishop who represents them, reflects opinion within their country, their people. This is rather a good sign. The Church is truly rooted in and reflects local realities.
COMECE offers an opportunity for the bishops to meet, to listen to one another and to move forward for the common good. This enables differences to be overcome, e.g. in matters of family, migration, security and defense policy. Such diversity becomes wealth when we are able to define a common approach.
Can the Church help breathe new life into the European Union? If so, how?
OP: First of all by recalling its mission. For Christians, the Church is the location of the incarnation. This starts from below, with the suffering of the weakest, because it is only in this way that any society will be able to advance together.
Moreover the Church supports multilateralism. The pope does not regard the construction of Europe as completed but as a tool for preserving the peace, which is in danger today around the world. He invites Europeans not to close in on themselves but to deal with the new challenges.
Olivier Poquillon is a Dominican who has lived in Mosul, New York and Strasbourg.
The COMECE General Assembly will address the theme, "The distress of the poor in Europe."
It is the first to be held since Brother Poquillion took up his post as secretary-general.
Poquillon, who was ordained as a priest in 2001, was an expert of the Holy See at the Council of Europe, a military chaplain, a teacher at the University of Mosul in Iraq, permanent delegate of the Order of Preachers at the United Nations and prior of the Dominican convent in Strasbourg.
Under the leadership of COMECE president, Cardinal Reinhard Marx of Munich, he has contributed greatly to the preparation of the major congress that will take place in Rome in October 2017 to mark the 60th anniversary of the treaty establishing the European Economic Community, with the theme, "What common project for Europe today?"
