Riding an electric bike for the first time? It's clear that there's some obvious differences between an ebike and a standard, non-powered pedal bike, so it can be confusing as to whether or not the same laws apply.
Thankfully, an eBike is classed as a bicycle when it comes to road laws, and there's no additional registration or costs required to use it. However, there are some additional laws that apply specifically to eBikes, with regards to the speed and power of the motor.
How old do you have to be to ride an eBike?
According to UK law, you can only ride an electric bike on public roads if you're at least 14 years old.
What is the maximum eBike motor power?
250W is the maximum motor permitted on an eBike. Anything higher, and the bike would instead be classed as a moped.
What is the speed limit for an eBike?
15.5mph (30 km/h) is the maximum speed at which at the bike's motor can provide electric assistance. You can travel faster than this, but only through your own pedalling power.
eBike Legal FAQs
Do I need a driving license to ride an eBike on the road?
No, you don't need a driving license to ride an eBike, even if you're cycling on public roads. The only requirement for you to use an eBike on the road is that you're at least 14 years of age.
Is an eBike treated the same as a standard bicycle?
Yes, an eBike has the same vehicle classification as a standard bike in terms of rules and regulations. However, if you illegally tune your eBike so regulations on speed and power are exceeded, your bike would actually be classed as a motorised vehicle, bringing with it additional costs and requirements.
What's the difference between an electric bike and a moped?
While an electric moped and eBike are both powered by an electric motor, there's one key difference – a moped accelerates without any work from you, while an eBike requires you to pedal.
Do I need to pay road tax for an eBike?
No, an electric bike is classified the same as a standard pedal bike, meaning you don't need to pay tax to use it on the roads. It also doesn't need registering in the same way as other vehicles.
What is eBike tuning?
An eBike has automatic mechanisms to ensure that when you're travelling above 15.5mph, the electric motor will cut out and stop providing you with additional assistance. Tuning devices are available that manipulate how the speed is read by the bike, meaning the motor continues to speed up the ride while over the legal limit. It's a process that can be dangerous, as well as illegal when on public roads.
Is eBike tuning legal?
In a way, yes. Tuning an eBike isn't an illegal act, but using a tuned eBike on the road is definitely against the law. You can use a tuned eBike on private property, but once you're anywhere where the Road Traffic Act applies (such as any public road), it's illegal to ride. Breaking this law can lead to a conviction, potentially involving a hefty fine, and in some cases even a custodial sentence. Want to know more? Read our blog on why eBike tuning is illegal and dangerous here.

IN the first section of the book (Chapters 1-8) instructions and diagrams are given for making 19 different kites. It will be found that some are easy to make; others require more time and skill. Again, there are several sizes which range, for example, from the Small Fish kite to the large Box kite. This selection is offered for certain reasons. One is to help the beginner to progress from the simpler to the more complex forms. In this way he will gain skill in making and handling many different kites, and at the same time he may build up a collection of which he can be justly proud.
Another and related reason is that many people do not know how large the scope is in kite design. These chapters will reveal something of that scope, and so may serve to correct the idea that kites are limited to the Box and Pegtop styles. Literally speaking, dozens of different styles could be made, and they would fly, if certain rules were kept. From the large number available, a selection has been made in which the reader may find much that is of interest and satisfaction to him.
The rest of the book (Chapters 9-13) is concerned with a number of important things, each of which forms a part of kite-craft. They may serve to prove that this hobby opens a door to a variety of interesting activities and studies. The writers intention has been to present in as simple a way as is possible the obvious and less obvious factors in kite making and flying. It is earnestly hoped that the book may succeed in attracting many new friends to a hobby which can be of absorbing interest to all who take it up.
Work comes complete with source in word doc format as well as pdf version. Custom cover graphics.

Arizona State women's golf Missy Farr-Kaye undergoing colon cancer treatment
Arizona State women's golf coach Missy Farr-Kaye is undergoing treatment for colon cancer.
Farr-Kaye, 53, went public with her medical status Tuesday.
She was diagnosed with colon cancer in November and began chemotherapy treatment in December. She plans on coaching this season if her health allows.
"As some close to me are aware, I am undergoing treatment for colon cancer after being diagnosed in November," Farr-Kaye said in a statement. "My doctors are optimistic as we caught it early and treatments have begun, and we are confident being cancer free will happen.
"Chemotherapy has started and the plan is to coach this spring and be with our team as much as I can. Our focus will be on the incredible spring we want to have after not playing this past fall and having last spring taken away. We are ready to make a run at the championship in May at Grayhawk with many Sun Devils supporting us to our ninth NCAA title. There is room for more trophies on the shelf, and I look forward to being a big part of making that happen."
Michelle Estill is ASU's associate head coach, who will assist in running the team. The Sun Devils open their season Jan. 24-25 with a tournament in Gold Canyon.
The NCAA Women's Golf Championships will be held May 21-26 at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale followed by the men's championships on May 28-June 2.
Farr-Kaye's sister Heather Farr, who played on the LPGA Tour, died at 28 of breast cancer. Missy Farr-Kaye is a breast cancer survivor and leads the Heather Farr Foundation. Both played golf at ASU.
After serving 13 seasons as ASU assistant coach, Farr-Kaye was promoted to head coach in 2015 and is going into her sixth season in that capacity.
ASU won its eight NCAA title in 2017 under Farr-Kaye, also a national champion with the Sun Devils as a player in 1990 and assistant coach in 2009. She was Golfweek 2016-17 national Coach of the Year as well as West region and Pac-12 Coach of the Year.

Located in a popular, sought-after location
Far reaching views across Loch Fyne
Close to Tarbert's yachting marina
Benefits from private lift access, keyless entrance and two allocated parking spaces
EPC - C75
Located on the shorefront of Pier Road in the popular coastal town of Tarbert, The Penthouse offers buyers an opportunity to acquire an iconic apartment in the former, historic Columba Hotel Development.
This exciting project has transformed the historic c-listed hotel into a selection of modern, high-specification apartments.
The development contains a limited number of luxurious apartments over four stories, with the magnificent Penthouse occupying the complete top floor of the building.
Access to the building is made via the keyless entrance into a ground floor lobby where a lift and staircase offer easy access to all floors, with the Penthouse benefitting from exclusive, protected access.
With coombed ceilings and stylish fittings featuring heavily in the design, this is an incredible opportunity to acquire a truly exclusive property.
The stylish, high specification copper themed kitchen sits within the walls of the intricate mansard style roof architecture and enjoys panoramic views across the water.
Much thought has been given to the design and layout, with large windows also included in the roof structure, flooding the area with light and capitalising on the stunning views across Tarbert Bay.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a combined dining/living room offers flexibility and functionality in equal measure and is the perfect place to entertain guests.
The master bedroom has an attached, modern en-suite bathroom, with stylish freestanding bath and walk in shower. A second double bedroom and family bathroom complete the accommodation.
A private staircase leads from the third floor of the property to a dedicated landing, giving opportunity for convenient storage of bikes and outdoor pursuits equipment. The landing also leads to an internal hallway containing a functional utility room along with a useful store room.
The superior specification of the Penthouse includes private lift access, keyless entrance, ethernet wiring, mains water and drainage and mist fire alarm/detection system. Two dedicated parking spaces are included with the Penthouse, both with charging points for electric vehicles.
Externally, the property is a stone's throw from the water's edge and is within easy walking distance of Tarbert town centre and its fabulous yachting marina.
A bespoke elevated decking area has been installed at the rear of the property, offering residents a place to sit and enjoy the tranquil surroundings.
Given its supreme specification and fabulous location, The Penthouse is certain to attract a significant amount of interest and early viewing is advised.
The Penthouse apartment benefits from a great position in the popular tourist destination of Tarbert. In the summer, Tarbert is host to Scotland's largest sailing regatta - the Scottish Series. There are a number of cafés and restaurants overlooking the harbour in addition to a supermarket and banking services. Tarbert Academy offers local schooling at nursery, primary and secondary level.
There is a short 9-hole golf course and two major golf courses at Machrihanish, including the Machrihanish Links - one of the finest links in the country and voted one of the top 50 courses in the UK. For field sports enthusiasts the area offers numerous fishing, stalking and shooting opportunities.
Tarbert is popular with overnight visitors as it is the last stop before the ferry service to Islay, famed around the world for its whiskies. Most Bed and Breakfasts in Tarbert provide early morning breakfasts and transport for the early Tarbert to Islay ferry which is less than 10 minutes by car on the way south to Campbeltown. Campbeltown also offers the convenience of daily flights to and from Glasgow, with the exception of a Saturday.
The main local hub is that of Lochgilphead, a town approximately 14 miles to the north and the administrative centre of Argyll and Bute. Facilities include a swimming pool, a sports centre, a hospital, supermarkets and a nine-hole golf course. The town is approximately 100 miles north of Glasgow, to which a daily bus service operates.
Entering Tarbert on the A83, make a turn onto Harbour Road next to the Bank of Scotland building and follow the road along the side of the harbour. The road eventually becomes Pier Road and The Columba building is located on the right-hand side after around half a mile.

Connectivity Shortfalls
By Doresa Banning
While businesses in Nevada's metropolises are demanding smart capabilities from their wireless communications devices, their counterparts in the state's rural parts simply want and need broadband, or high-speed, Internet.
A lot of cities in the Silver State don't have it, explained Tom Husted, the CEO of the non-profit electric utility Valley Electric Association Inc. (VEA). VEA provides electricity to more than 45,000 people within a 6,800-square-mile service area between Fish Lake Valley and Sandy Valley, primarily along the border with California. "We aim to help facilitate high-speed communications wherever we can within the state of Nevada," he said.
VEA has been doing just that. Its wholly owned subsidiary, Valley Communications Association (VCA), has installed the infrastructure for wireless Internet in VEA's entire service area except for Sandy Valley, Mountain Springs and Trout Canyon as of mid-February. Regulatory approval has been obtained to begin work on Sandy Valley but remains pending for the other two spots. Buildout in all, however, is expected to be completed by year-end at the latest. As for the fiberoptic infrastructure, VCA currently is installing it in Beatty and Pahrump, the first two cities in VEA's service area to get it. Beatty will be the first such community to be fully fiberoptic equipped.
VCA also is installing either wireless or fiberoptic, depending on need, in cities outside of VEA's service area, such as Tonopah and Goldfield.
"As the wireless gets replaced with fiberoptic, the former equipment will then be taken and redeployed in communities outside of VEA's service area," Husted said.
The high-speed Internet VCA is making available is 10 times faster than what these communities had before, Husted said. The wireless speed is 25 megabits per second up and down. With fiberoptic, the maximum service available today for businesses is 10 gigabits per second, but the capability is limitless. As commercial consumers need increased capacity with their fiberoptic, it can be accommodated with the infrastructure that VCA has been installing.
"The service is absolutely phenomenal," Husted said. "The system is designed so that as more consumers come on, it doesn't have degradation in quality."
Broadband Internet is "a game changer" for businesses in rural Nevada, Husted said. "High-speed communications is critical infrastructure in this day and age. Demand for that is only going to increase in the future."
That technology allowed Raj Singh and Sam Dhillon, owners of the Best Western Pahrump Oasis, to meet customer demand for fast, reliable Internet. It enabled Pahrump attorney Jonathan K. Nelson to open an office in Las Vegas. It lets Tyrus Tom, the owner/operator of six Horizon Market gas station and convenience stores in Nye County, to better manage his locations as he can remotely stream video from them in real time. It provides Andrea Little, owner of Liberty Tax in Pahrump, the ability to download tax program updates and upload clients' tax returns rapidly, much faster than the 30 to 45 minutes it took for one file in the past.
And it kept open the Beatty Medical Clinic, the only one in town. Staffing the family practice full-time became unviable, economically. However, now with broadband, the operator Dr. Michael Reiner said he can have a virtual provider there 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday to Friday and have another one physically present on a limited, as-needed basis.

TGIF! That's what surfer wanna-be peeps in or near Austin Texas are saying this morning! Artificial wave pool surfing has opened at 4836 E Hwy 71, Del Valle, TX 78617 today! And here's the map!
1912 Palisades Amusement Park in Bergen County, New Jersey had a salt water pool. The water was drawn from the Hudson River's saline waters. Rotating pontoons created an ongoing one foot wave. Were they surfing? No, but hey, it's still 1912!
The huge and popular amusement park remained opened until 1971.
"Gellért Spa is famous for its main hall with gallery and glass roof, built in Art-Nouveau style.
This early wave pool might not be interesting to a California surfer girl, but, they were getting at an exciting idea!
1969 Big Surf opened in Tempe, AZ, USA. The video below is from when it reopened in 2010 after some refurbishing.
2001 – FlowrRider started a chain of Wave House waterparks opening first in San Diego. While the wave pool was central, these include restaurants, bars, performance stages and basically, a lifestyle or kind of hyper-lifestyle. Fun!
In Santiago Chile a Wave House opened in a huge mall complex. You can ride some waves and then get some pizza! Following that, you can peruse the retail establishments stocking board sports items.
Wave House Sentosa (an island) south of Singapore ramps up the fun on the isle of "peace in tranquility" (a Malay phrase).
2012 – in Mallorca Spain the 180 room Wave House hotel quintissentializes – or quintilescalates? – the surf pool lifestyle. Two wave pools on the beach front. What's not to celebrate?
2016-2017 . Twenty eight million peeps will get to surf at the new Wave House in the southwest Chinese city of Chongqing.
Changchun, the Detroit of China in the northeast will get their Wave House fun in 2017. There's more coming too, and you can read about it on the Wave House site.
Here's a video of Kelly Slater's wave pool. He's definitely having fun!
2013 – Virginia Beach, Virginia at Juice Box Surf Center "Riders will have the ability to surf indoors in winter and outside in summer. The guest experience includes surfing, shopping, spectating, food, and live music." Surfing championship, board making, et al!
Snowdonia opened. With eighteen waves an hour, surfers can practice in the middle of the pool and beginners and children can learn near the edge. The water is clean, from natural reservoirs. The wave pools may never present the size of the wave you see immediately above – but the popularity of these pools is growing!
Have you tried artificial wave pool surfing? Or, will you? What do you think? I'd love to hear about your experience,with, or plans to try an artificial surf wave pool.

Bam Margera sends update from rehab: 'I'm 39 years old, the party is over'
He writes on Instagram that he'd 'like to join the sober parade.'
When Bam Margera's best friend and fellow Jackass star Ryan Dunn, (in painting right) died in a fiery crash in West Goshen Township in 2011, he went into a deep, downward spiral. No one would ever argue that the West Chester resident had it all together, but he was making money and having fun, supposedly, living the perpetual Peter Pan life. It turns out that through much of Jackass, Bam was bulimic and drinking heavily and all of that got much worse after Dunn's death. He drank, a lot, got beat up and caused a scene wherever he went. Today he's lost weight, remarried and having a baby, and he's fallen back in love with skateboarding, the hobby that led him to fame from the beginning.

Bam Margera is sticking with sobriety about a week into his third stay in an alcohol rehabilitation center, the former Jackass star says.
Margera, 39, announced on New Year's Eve that he would enter rehab for the third time since the death of friend Ryan Dunn, who died in a drunk-driving crash in 2011. At the time, Margera wrote that he hoped "the term 3rd time is a charm is true." Now, in a handwritten note posted to Instagram, Margera says he is "sick of people thinking I'm drunk, crazy or f- up," and that he would "like to join the sober parade."
"I have spent enough time grieving over Ryan Dunn through alcohol," Margera wrote. "I am 39 years old, the party is over. I don't plan on drinking anymore."
In a separate video, Margera indicated he is staying in a rehab center in California's Bay Area. As he wrote in another handwritten post, rules at the facility appear to be strict, leaving Margera with only "thoughts and a pen."
Terms, the post read, include Margera staying off the internet, not being able to go to outside Alcoholics Anonymous meetings with his rehab group, and not taking "important calls from important people," as well as being prohibited from communicating with his wife, Nicole Boyd, and son, Phoenix Wolf, via Facetime.
"My eyes hurt from reading, my wrist hurts from writing, cause there is nothing else to do," Margera wrote.
This most recent stay in rehab for Margera comes following weeks of erratic behavior online that culminated in mid-December with a massive party at the pro skater's West Chester property known as Castle Bam. As part of the event, Margera sent an open invitation to fans to visit the home and tear down a skatepark to make way for a new one designed by fellow pro skater Danny Way. Margera appeared to be intoxicated at the event.
Following the party, Margera continued posting handwritten messages online, including some that indicated he had broken up with his wife "because that was always the plan." Additionally, Margera turned his attention to friend Brandon Novak, a former heroin addict turned motivational speaker and author, claiming Novak has been "too busy for me" over the last few years. Margera later thanked Novak, as well as fellow Jackass stars Steve-O and Johnny Knoxville, for helping arrange his current stay in rehab.
Margera's alcoholism has been highly publicized since 2016, when he appeared on VH1's Family Therapy with Dr. Jenn, on which he detailed his experiences with drinking. In 2017, he discussed his addiction to alcohol in depth as part of Vice's Epicly Later'd series, saying that drinking caused him to develop bulimia in his 20s. That year, Margera also discussed with the Inquirer the role Dunn's death had on his drinking.
"I didn't know what I was doing for a long time, but I went into a deep downward spiral once that happened," Margera told the Inquirer in 2017. "Waking up instantly to a beer was normal for a long time."
Currently, Margera's Castle Bam property is being renovated to be used as an AirBnB location, his mother, April, told the Inquirer last year. The property has not yet been listed on the rental service's website.
"He went to rehab, and he has embraced sobriety," April said last year. "We're really proud of him. He's moving forward, and he takes it one day at a time."

Kintsugi, The Japanese Art of Fixing Broken Pottery With Gold
by Kaushik Patowary Wednesday, May 28, 2014
Most people would like damages to their broken items to be concealed and hidden by repair making the object look like new. But the Japanese art of Kintsugi follows a different philosophy. Rather than disguising the breakage, kintsugi restores the broken item incorporating the damage into the aesthetic of the restored item, making it part of the object's history. Kintsugi uses lacquer resin mixed with powdered gold, silver, platinum, copper or bronze, resulting into something more beautiful than the original.
According to Lakeside Pottery:
Kintsugi is said to have originated in the 15th century when a Japanese shogun broke a favorite tea bowl and sent it back to China to be fixed. But the repair job, which was done with metal staples - being the standard for repair at that time - detracted from the beauty of the bowl. Disappointed, the shogun enlisted a Japanese craftsmen to come up with a more aesthetically pleasing solution, and kintsugi was born.
Although kintsugi repair makes it appear as though the original piece was mended with gold, the original process is essentially a form of lacquer art. Broken pieces are glued back together using urushi lacquer, derived from the sap of the Chinese lacquer tree. The final layer of urushi is covered with fine gold powder and then burnished. The collection of the sap and processing of the urushi oil is difficult because of its toxicity. Fortunately, once it dries and hardens the toxic effects of the urushi oil are essentially nullified, making the lacquer ware safe to handle. Today, thanks to modern polymer technology, kintsugi style repair can be accomplished with state of the art materials that are stronger and have greater longevity than the traditional lacquer methodology.
Collectors of kintsugi are so enamored of the art that some were accused of deliberately smashing valuable pottery so it could be repaired with the gold seams of kintsugi.

Current residence: Boston, MA, U.S.
Current position: Chief Scientific Officer, Orig3n, Inc.
I am the Chief Scientific Officer at Orig3n and at Orig3n, we are a pioneer in regenerative medicine and creating the largest source of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) for the understanding and treatment of a variety of diseases. What excites me is the impact this will have on the future of medicine. The access to large numbers of human cells from "normal" and disease patients allows scientists to understand differences between people and understand the molecular mechanisms of disease.
I went into the world of therapeutics because I like science and medicine. Developing therapeutics relies on the solid foundation of science and applies this foundation to our understanding of disease. For the first part of my career, I had to use cell models by starting with cancer lines because they divided easily and could be manipulated. There was no easy access to human tissue that could be cultured in a dish. Who wants to donate a bit of their brain or heart for research? The fact that IPSCs can be differentiated to any tissue is powerful!
I like the outdoors and being active. This takes the form of running, hiking, and cross country skiing. I also like to go out to dinner and the theater with my husband and friends. I have three grown children that live nearby and I like spending time with them, as well.
I am a classically trained mandolin player, but I don't have a chance to play much right now.
One of the best aspects of the ISSCR is the opportunity to listen to exciting stem cell science; this includes what's going on now and the newest directions the field is going. The conference serves also as a way for scientists to get together for informal discussions. I hope to get more involved in the ISSCR organization and the running of future conferences.


As a reminder, we have our Community Workout coming up on Saturday, July 18 at 8:00 am at our Lewisville location (1400 Moccasin Trail St 18). From 9:00-10:30 we will have our Performance Seminar where the first 45 minutes will cover nutrition and the Fluff to Buff challenge that will begin Monday, July 20 and the second 45 minutes will cover a movement in CrossFit that we find people struggle with. The Community Workout and Performance Seminar are both free to members and non-members. Body Analytics will be out the whole morning from 8:00-12:00 doing Body Compostition testing. Email lindsey@crossfitflowermound.com for more information.
Happy birthday Josh C. !
Some of you may remember Jim Leddon. He was one of our very first members at CrossFit Lewisville (CrossFit Denton County at the time). He was in the Air Force and life took him away from the gym. He later returned to CrossFit Flower Mound in the fall of 2013 and was a member for several months attending mainly the 8 and 9 am classes.
Jim suffered a Basilar Artery Stroke on Sunday, June 14 and passed away this past Thursday. He was an awesome person and we wanted to honor him in the best way we know how- a workout.
Happy birthday Greg and Tucker!
This weekend Noreen G. has a birthday! We hope you have a great weekend!


Insomnia is not a disease, so no specific test can diagnose it. But when you can't sleep well, it often has to do with some other cause.
"Normal sleep" differs for each person, so checking your health and sleep history is an important first step to finding a cause for poor-quality sleep. Talk with your doctor about your medical history, any medical problems you have, and any medicines you are taking. Your doctor may also want to do blood tests to rule out certain medical conditions such as thyroid problems.
Your doctor can learn a lot about your insomnia and its causes by reviewing your sleep history. Your sleep history can show how long you sleep each night, how well you sleep, and whether you snore or gasp for air. Your doctor may ask your bed partner questions about your sleep.
You may also be asked to keep a sleep journal for 1 or 2 weeks to track your sleep patterns and habits. Your sleep journal can help your doctor spot certain habits that may affect your sleep. He or she may even see signs of a hidden health problem that may need to be checked.
Your doctor may recommend a sleep study if your insomnia seems to be caused by breathing problems (such as sleep apnea) or periodic limb movement disorder. Or your doctor may suggest a sleep study if you have tried other treatments that haven't worked.

Welcome to Hacking Chinese Challenges!
The concept is simple. Each month, there will be a challenge focusing on one particular area of learning Chinese, where you strive to reach your goal and/or beat your friends. The challenges are very straightforward: set a goal, study as much as you can, log your activity and make sure you reach your goal before the end of the month.
To make sure we diversify our studying, I have worked out a schedule and will cycle different types of challenges. You can join all the challenges and get a lot of everything or just join those that happen to be aligned with your current plans, it's up to you.
If you join all the challenges, I will make sure that the proportions make sense, so even if there will be some special/unique/interesting challenges, most will just be very useful.
Once you have registered, you can join challenges, set goals and report progress. Please note that this month's challenge will start on Friday, so even if you can enrol now, you can't start reporting progress before Friday. I will write more about this month's challenge on Thursday and will also post some suggested resources early next week.
I have included more specific instructions on how to use Hacking Chinese Challenges below, but let's look at the schedule first. I will update this as I come up with new challenges or if I decide to include reader suggestions. Leave a comment if you have ideas for challenges!
There will be one challenge each month that will last for roughly three weeks, always starting on a weekday and ending on the last day of the month. Three weeks is enough to stay focused and achieve a lot, but not so long that you tire and get distracted. You also get one week breathing space between each challenge.
Each challenge will be preceded by a post on Hacking Chinese where I introduce the challenge and share some relevant articles and resources (you can always go to Hacking Chinese Resources). Let's help each other out and share tips, information and resources for each challenge!
I like challenges a lot and I think it's an excellent way to stay focused, especially for learners who aren't taking courses but still want to improve. My hope is that if you commit to these challenges, you'll get more done.
I have participated in several reading challenges (this project is inspired by Read More or Die) and I typically read more than twice as much when I'm in a challenge compared to when I'm not! I want to use this power not only for reading, but for all areas of language learning. And I want you to join me. I plan to enrol in all challenges myself and I came up with the idea partly because I need this badly myself.
This is a beta version. It has been through some testing before this (I ran a listening challenge with volunteers from the e-mail list as well as a short vocabulary challenge with people from Facebook). However, there are likely still occasional quirks and bugs. This is a work in progress and if you have any feedback or comments, please let me know!
Just as for Hacking Chinese Resources, I'm not responsible for the coding on this project. Instead I have relied on the invaluable help of Stefan Wienert, thank you! I have also received a lot of help from Julien Leyre of the Marco Polo Project.
I'm going to tell you more about the October challenge this Thursday, but if you want to start now, you could prepare yourself by enrolling in the challenge and finding as much listening material as you can. I'm going to talk much more about this later, but try to find audio that is at or below your level. See you again on Thursday!
Hi Olle! Is this limited to Chinese? I'm learning Japanese which is similar in all the areas of practice mentioned, and I'd love to participate.
Great! That´s the exact question I had. I´m studying Spanish and I was wishing there was something like this for Spanish. I´m glad I can participate in the challenges as well. Can´t wait to join. Thanks for allowing us to participate.

Librarian Karen Saunders led the event, which took place in the large meeting room of the library. The event had a "Fair and Farm Fun" theme to coincide with the Canfield Fair, which began on the same day.
She opened the event with an exercise to get the children thinking and moving where they moved and clapped their hands at differing tempos as directed by Saunders. Then, she read "Minerva Louise at the Fair" by Janet Morgan Stoeke and later read "Down on the Farm" by Merrily Kutner.
The children created paper beanbags with the help of their parents and Saunders at the end of the event. Saunders gave the children crayons, paper, scissors and tape to make the beanbags.
The paper had farm animals that the children colored.
Each part of the event helped the children learn while also entertaining them. The books raise the children's literacy skills, the songs improved the their identification and rhythmic abilities and the craft exercise worked their creativity and motor skills.

Hong Kong Couple Ask a Taiwan Pastor to Take Care of Their Child
Category: Relationships Tags: China / Hong Kong protest / Huang Chun-Sheng / parenting

Immediately after giving birth to their first baby in Taiwan, a young couple decided to return to Hong Kong to get back to the protest. They wanted to entrust their baby to the pastor, Huang, Chun-Sheng and said: "We are willing to give our lives for Hong Kong."
The Chief Pastor of Presbyterian Church in Taiwan's Zhongzheng Church, Huang Chun-Sheng, is one of the most important figures supporting Hong Kong in Taiwan. Observing the situation there over the past six months, he said: "The tears have dried up." However, he felt even more heartbroken a few days ago when he received a letter from a young couple from Hong Kong.
This couple was involved in the protest when it started. Just before the wife was about to go into labor, they traveled to Taiwan so she could give birth to their first baby. They wanted to go back to Hong Kong to continue the protest after the birth, but they were reluctant to bring the baby back to an environment full of conflict and tear gas.

The young mother wrote in the letter: "Dear Pastor, we must go back to Hong Kong. Can we entrust the baby to you?" The pastor said that he did not know this couple. He said: "She knew that we help Hong Kong and provide medical care for people there. It takes nine months for a mother to have a baby. There is a deep emotional bond and connection with its life. She loves her baby so to protect her child from the tear gas and evil regime, she would rather leave the child in a liberal and safe place. This is terrible. They might sacrifice their lives for the protest. Listening to their story, I felt heartbroken. She must be really struggling."
The pastor did not agree to their request. He thought that it would be unbearable for the mother to leave her child. The pastor told her: "Don't worry. You just go back. If you really run into any trouble, you can come back here." She replied: "Hong Kong is not an ideal work environment anymore. We might risk our lives for Hong Kong!"
"Look at this young couple. It's their first child. Don't you think the situation has gone too far?" said the pastor.
A few days later, the young couple took the child back to Hong Kong. The pastor contemplated how the word evil can be used to describe a regime that drives a mother to think about leaving her child alone so that she could go fight against it and possibly sacrifice her life.

He said: "There is no place for people to be safe and happily settle down under the ruling of the Chinese Communist Party since it has no conscience. A corrupt regime cannot reform and change its vicious qualities so it is impossible for its citizens to have happy lives. It cannot lead the civilization to develop toward a bright future."
The Chinese Communist Party always emphasizes that the Hong Kong issue is their "domestic matter." The pastor said that he used to help a woman who suffered from domestic violence. The perpetrator claimed: "This is our domestic matter so you should not interfere." The pastor said: "Is it so? For a person with a conscience, this is not simply someone's domestic matter. This is a matter of conscience."
"Shall we save the victim of domestic violence? Of course. If you see a person who falls on the ground and injures themselves would you say that it's his own issue? Of course not. You would help him!" the pastor said.
The pastor said that if the Chinese government really takes Hong Kong people to be their family members, then the Chinese government should put down their weapons.
"I would not take a gun and point it at my son! I would listen to what he wants to say and respect his choice. A real family should behave this way, so the Chinese Communist Party does not see Hong Kong people as their family."
Watching the harsh situation in Hong Kong, the pastor still remains optimistic and said: "I am not being naïve or unaware. Throughout history, we can see that evil can never prevail over good, and the darkness never wins over the light."

Former veteran all-rounder Yuvraj Singh arrested, know the whole case
By News Track
There has been big news about former Team India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh (Yuvraj Singh). In fact, he used derogatory words for his fellow cricketer and has been arrested in Haryana in the same case. Veteran left-handed Indian cricketer Yuvraj was reportedly arrested at Hansi in Hisar district of Haryana on October 16 last Saturday. In fact, Yuvraj was accused of using caste words, and a complaint was made last year in the case.
An FIR was registered against him in the SC-ST Act case at that time, though he was arrested in the case last Saturday and immediately granted bail. Yuvraj Singh was reportedly caught up in the entire case last year for his inadvertent comments. Yuvraj Singh, like many other players, was talking to his fellow players on Instagram Live during the lockdown in 2020. He was also entertaining his fans during that time.
In the meantime, he had a live chat with Team India's star batsman Rohit Sharma. During the same live chat, Yuvraj used a word about Indian spinner Yuzvendra Chahal, which came under the purview of casteist remarks. There was a heated argument after his statement came to light and an FIR was lodged against him under sections of the SC-ST Act. He was questioned for some time at Hansi police station last Saturday in the same case and subsequently, following court orders, the police completed the formalities and released Yuvraj on bail.

Impartial judges help strengthen the rule of law
From Africa Renewal:
August - November 2016

When a survey on corruption was carried out in Ghana two years ago, more than 8 out of every 10 Ghanaians (85%) said judges and magistrates were some of the most corrupt public officials in the country.
On top of the list was the police (89%), while national government officials (86%) came second. The judiciary tied for third place with the Ghana Revenue Authority. The survey was conducted by Afrobarometer, an independent, nonpartisan network that conducts public opinion surveys in Africa.
Some African countries have made significant progress in ensuring judicial independence.
A local journalist, Anas Aremeyaw Anas, showed that the judiciary's high ranking was justified. He conducted an explosive undercover investigation into corruption within the judiciary, which exposed judges accepting bribes to either throw out cases or pass lower sentences.
Mr. Anas's findings were aired on national TV in a two-hour investigative report featuring hidden camera footage, the result of two years of investigation. These recordings riveted the nation, and Ghanaians were outraged as they looked at grainy images of judges and other judicial officers accepting money or food, including a goat in one instance, in exchange for favours from the bench.
Long-held suspicion
"Justice has been wounded," Ghana's chief justice Georgina Theodora Wood commented a few days after the release of the incriminating footage. She said the exposé had "cast a dark shadow on the legal community as a whole, its services, its people and its credibility" and deepened long-held suspicions about the legal profession in general.
The role of the judiciary is to enforce the law and hold public officials accountable. Scandals like the one in Ghana highlight the structural weaknesses in the judiciary in many sub-Saharan African countries.
According to anti-corruption activists, the lack of judicial independence from the executive is one of the root causes of a judiciary's inability to uphold the law. The findings of the 2016 Africa Integrity Indicators report produced by Global Integrity, an organization that promotes transparency and accountability around the world, showed that judicial independence is not guaranteed in about half of the 54 African countries.
Global Integrity data is also used to compile the annual Ibrahim Index of African Governance, a project of the Mo Ibrahim Foundation that collects data for every African country and ranks them according to how well they adhere to principles of good governance.
"We looked at whether there are influences [over the judiciary] from other branches of the government," Sun-Min Kim, a manager at Global Integrity, told Africa Renewal. "But since judicial independence is such a broad concept, our indicators have tried to specifically assess the appointment process, for example, and the degree of autonomy of judges in giving rulings, whether or not the rulings were justified and if they were made public."
In some cases judges, magistrates and prosecutors may be beholden to political interests when their careers are controlled by the executive branch. In Cameroon, for instance, the president chairs the highest judicial body, the Superior Council of Magistracy, which, among other things, oversees judicial appointments. In some parts of Africa, the president might have the final say in who gets selected for higher courts.
Appointments sanctioned by the president of a country tend to be determined by political loyalty rather than merit. When such appointees fill the judiciary, experts argue the likelihood of a government being held accountable is diminished and the door is left open to all kinds of influence, including political pressure, threats and bribery.
Even when the independence of the judiciary may be formally and legally guaranteed, the risk of interference is still present. In Angola, for example, Judge Joaquim de Abreu Cangato, a long-time official of the ruling party apparently with no judicial background, was appointed in March 2000 to the country's supreme court, according to the Committee to Protect Journalists 2016 report. This was despite the fact that judicial independence is enshrined in the country's law.
Of the 54 African countries surveyed by Global Integrity, 11% have a "completely independent" judiciary, while 30% are "not completely independent". Among those found completely independent were Botswana, Cape Verde, Mauritius and South Africa.
Checks and balances
Some African countries have made significant progress in ensuring judicial independence. Botswana's judiciary, for example, "is generally considered independent despite concerns over the president's unfettered power to appoint high-level judges," says Marie Terracol, the programme coordinator on whistleblowing at Transparency International, an anti-corruption watchdog. However, Amnesty International has raised concern over President Ian Khama's suspension this year of four high court judges.
South Africa has a mixed record when it comes to judicial independence. The recent ruling by the Constitutional Court, the country's highest judicial body, upholding corruption allegations against President Jacob Zuma, was internationally hailed as a sign of the judiciary's independence, wrote The Guardian, a British newspaper.
"The President has failed to uphold, defend and respect the constitution as the supreme law of the land," a unanimous court found earlier this year, after President Zuma and his government failed to comply with the recommendations of the public protector, Thuli Madonsela, to repay public money spent upgrading the president's private home.
Slow progress
In 2011, Mogoeng Mogoeng, South Africa's chief justice, was appointed by President Zuma over then deputy chief justice Dikgang Ernest Moseneke, who was widely viewed as having been more experienced and better qualified. Civil society organisations and opposition parties opposed the appointment, claiming that the executive was trying to stifle the independence of the court and possibly skew its decisions in its favour. But as the South African Constitutional Court decision showed, judiciary appointments, even by politicians, do not always tie judges' hands.
For its part, Cape Verde, generally considered one of Africa's strongest democracies, appoints its judges and magistrates through a selection process based on merit.
In 2007, when many African countries were planning judicial reforms, Transparency International looked at corruption in judicial systems in its annual global corruption report, focussing on political interference and bribery involving court personnel. It recommended greater transparency, fair court processes, training of court officials and greater involvement of the civil society.
The report also emphasised the importance of striking a balance between accountability and independence, adding that "granting judges independence, while subjecting them to effective accountability mechanisms, will deter prosecutorial and police corruption."
These recommendations form the basis of judicial reform programmes across the continent. Based on the current Africa Integrity Indicators, the continent is making progress, albeit slowly, on judicial accountability.

Albuquerque seeks millions for warrant backlog crackdown, new police facilities
by: Chris McKee, Marilyn Upchurch
Posted: Jan 6, 2023 / 12:59 PM MST
Updated: Jan 7, 2023 / 04:45 PM MST
City's proposal would create $10m state fund, $5m for ABQ metro area
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (KRQE) – Albuquerque city leaders are pitching more than $50 million in funding requests for a slew of new law enforcement related investments, including funding to crackdown on Bernalillo County's warrant backlog. The announcement came during a Friday news conference, less than ten days away from the start of the next 60-day New Mexico legislative session.
Of the requests outlined for Albuquerque's purposes Friday, the city placed the most emphasis on a $5-million ask to pay for overtime in the execution of 5,000 outstanding felony warrants and at least 60,000 outstanding misdemeanor warrants in Bernalillo County. The number of outstanding warrants represents more than 10% of the population of Albuquerque.
Police investigate shootings at homes, offices of Albuquerque elected officials
"If you ask any law enforcement person in Albuquerque now, what's the number one thing you could do in the next month to reduce crime, it's to get those warrants served," Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller said at Friday's news conference. "That's what we're asking the legislature to help us with."
Officially, the city is pitching the creation of a warrant backlog overtime fund as something that could benefit the whole state. The Keller Administration envisions the fund as a $10-million dollar pot of money, with $5-million dollars reserved for the Albuquerque-metro area. The remaining $5-million could be used by other agencies, according to Keller.
"All of it's going to come from overtime so that it doesn't drain from [day-to-day policing]" Keller said, while gesturing a board showing APD's active holding calls for service. "Right now, if we were serving these 5,000 warrants, no one would be responded to any of these calls, that's the issues we're in, so that's why we have to do this with overtime."
Keller said if the proposal passes, he could see the city getting a bolstered warrant task force running by July. With the funding, the city says it's hoping to triple the number of warrants it currently is able to serve.
Albuquerque Police Chief Harold Medina emphasized making sure that those who are arrested are held accountable after their arrest. The city says it envisions a fund that would also be able to help bring on additional prosecutors or aid parole and probation's efforts.
"We want to make sure that we just don't serve these warrants," Medina said. "That the DA's office is prepared and we have cases ready to make sure these individuals stay in custody put our best foot forward in preventative detention hearings."
Operationally, the city says it would use the funds in a "sustained effort" between APD, BCSO, State Police and the U.S. Marshals Service. Emphasizing a new level of collaboration, Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen appeared at Friday's news conference. Allen effectively endorsed the city's request for funds to operate a warrant crackdown.
"We don't want to be victimized by crime in our community anymore, or revictimized," Allen said. "It is very important to have deputies and officers and other people in law enforcement entities to be working together to get people off these streets."
Newly appointed Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman also endorsed the crackdown effort Friday, saying his office is "100% supportive" of going after outstanding warrants. A
"I cannot imagine something more important for the city of Albuquerque and the county of Bernalillo than to spend the necessary resources on dealing with this warrant backlog," Bregman said. "And I gotta tell you, we're going to make sure we do everything possible at the district attorney's office to not let them get away with [absconding] and make sure they show up for court."
Two Albuquerque lawmakers attended Friday's briefing from both sides of the aisle, including newly elected Representative Cynthia Borrego (D) and longtime state Representative Bill Rehm (R). Neither lawmakers spoke during Friday's news conference.

Legislature: State lawmakers look to raise minimum wage to $15.50
New Mexico: Concerts coming to New Mexico in 2023
Other Funding Requests
Along with the request for a warrant crackdown fund, the city also announced requests for a series of investments related to police facilities. One of the largest requests is for $20-million to build a special operations building over the site of the now-closed Coronado Park.
"There's a lot of interest to have a centralized [building], it's for the entire state, every law enforcement and fire department in the state, to use a training facility in Albuquerque," Keller said. "We're asking for $20-million dollars to do that at Coronado Park."
No further details about the Coronado Park request was mentioned at Friday's news conference. Keller said the city would also seek $10-million to buy land for a public safety center to built somewhere in southwest Albuquerque, in the area of Coors and Rio Bravo, and funding for space for a future University area command around the University of New Mexico campus.
"We're going to be talking about this in the future," Keller said of the proposed university area command. "We need a facility there and [$4-million] in funds for that facility."
Finally, Keller announced an anticipated request for nearly $3-million to finish building the revamped Real Time Crime Center. Over the last year, the city has moved the RTCC's operations from the main police station downtown to the city's Emergency Operations Center on the westside with the aid of state legislative funding.
"From the U.S. Marshal, to the Sheriff to the DA's Office, this is now available to entire community," Keller said. "Now we are set up to fight crime together, literally."
The city is also seeking $7-million to "expand capacity at the APD Academy." The next legislative session begins on January 17.

Got a room going spare and want to take a tenant or lodger in? Great idea. Not only are you doing your bit to help the housing crisis, you're also possibly in with a chance of finding a new friendship with an awesome flatmate. Oh, and you might make some money. Winning all round.
The first thing to do is decide on a price for the room – which can be trickier than it sounds. Let us guide you through it.
Did you know that SpareRoom has a rental index that includes up-to-date rates for postcodes across the UK? It's a great starting point to give you a feel for what tenants will expect to pay in your area. And of course, don't forget to reflect the room's size, facilities and location in your price.
Fact: including the cost of monthly utility bills in the rent price will make the offering more desirable to SpareRoom users. In fact, a whopping 94% of users asked said they preferred to see rents displayed this way.
Including bills should increase the number of views to your advert, which in turn should increase the number of people who contact you about the room.
It also gives your potential new tenants a chance to budget properly and keep a handle on their outgoings before they move in. Which means no nasty surprises later on.
Including this figure from the offset gives potential tenants a chance to budget properly and keep a handle on their outgoings before they move in. When bills are missed out the rent, it can be unnerving – especially if tenants will later be presented with hefty bills later on that they hadn't prepared for.
As a landlord, it can be tempting to list your rent price as a weekly amount to make it look lower to potential tenants – but keep in mind this could also confuse them too. Not just because a weekly rent x 4 doesn't give the correct monthly amount, but because a lot of people don't budget in weekly cycles.
The golden rules of offering a room? Be honest, fair and reasonable. You'll attract better tenants and build a happier flatshare in the long run.


It's been a while but I've been busy working on my stage productions until I can save enough to WRAP "A Wound in Time". We need two to three weekends to complete the production phase and 10K. I will move forward at that time. Yes, I've been contacted by distributors in Los Angeles and Germany who have been awaiting a screener. We'll have something special to show them thanks to the wonderful talent and crew! Stay tuned.


Problems with LED flashing, chaser, motor driver, basically anything I do.
Discussion in 'Embedded Systems and Microcontrollers' started by Artikbot, May 30, 2012.
I've been trying to get into the microcontroller world for some time now, but every time I make a new attempt, I miserably fail and quit for a month.
I'm currently on my fifth attempt, and probably well over my 100 hours of reading, coding, programming, re-checking code, re-checking circuitry, programming again,... But my circuits keep failing to work.
I'm trying to do the simple LED blinker, as sad as it sounds.
I run a 18F4220, programmed with a Kits R Us K150 programmer (I bought it built to ensure working condition).
The code is as follows. Ports in side B declared as all outputs, then a loop that turns them off, waits, turns them on, waits, and repeats itself. Clock set by INTOSCIO2, and set at 8MHz internal frequency.
But instead of blinking, I get absolutely no activity.
The layout is pretty easy. Power from VDD pin, ground from VSS. From any of the side B pins to a resistor, then to a LED, to ground.
Power is fed via a 5V 1A LM7805 regulator-based PSU.
I use Microchip's own C18. I code on MPLAB 8.76, as MPLAB X seems to bug out in my system.
To burn the PIC I use Kits R Us' own MicroBrn, with the .hex files that come out of MPLAB needing to be fixed using their tool, FixHex (not entirely sure why, but if I don't do this the burner throws an error).
Which pin of PORTB are you using to connect to the LED?
Why are you setting PORTB = 0x5A; ?
Okay, I discovered that I can manually program the fuses in the burner. Apparently they are set properly now.
After doing this, I completely removed the delay routines in the code, and it turns on now, making me thing that the issue is the delay routine.
I'm writing a blinker using the delay.h as we speak. Reporting back soon!
This weekend I'll experiment with the PWM controllers and try to build a DC motor driver, an RGB controller or whatever crosses my mind LOL. Thanks again!
PWM module for CC LED driver - am I doing anything silly/dangerous/etc with this circuit?
