BeBook Neo ereader: WiFi and Wacom touchscreen

Chris Davies - Jan 22, 2010
BeBook Neo ereader: WiFi and Wacom touchscreen

It’s obviously the day for wireless ebook readers, with BeBook announcing that they’re taking preorders for their new BeBook Neo ereader.  Packing a 6-inch E Ink panel with a Wacom touchscreen, the Neo may not have integrated 3G like some rivals we’ve seen, but it does get WiFi for accessing a range of third-party ebook stores.

In fact punch in your location and BeBook’s UI will automatically show you what ebook retailers are offering their wares.  There’s also Wikipedia and Google access, together with a sketchpad app (albeit monochrome), and the Neo will display ePub, PDF (DRM/non-DRM), TXT and various picture formats.

The battery is tipped to last up to 7,000 page turns and BeBook reckon their Freescale processor makes the Neo 2.5x as fast as rival ereaders.  There’s 512MB of onboard storage, an SD slot (happy with cards up to 16GB) and USB connectivity, along with a 3.5mm headphone socket.  Preorders are being taken now for £279.99 ($453), with general availability expected in February 2010.

Press Release:

BeBook’s Neo is world’s first touchpad WiFi eReader with access to eBook stores worldwide

Endless Ideas, specialists in eReader technology, today launches its exciting new eBook reader the BeBook Neo. Following the success of the BeBook One and Mini, the Neo includes WiFi technology to allow users to find eBook retailers wherever they are in the world, download an eBook and even surf Google and Wikipedia whilst on the move. The Neo is available for pre order and will be available to buy in the second half of February.
The Neo provides users with a unique and extremely easy way of locating and purchasing eBooks. The eBook portal shows a world map and users click on their country of choice for a clear overview of third party eBook retailers. As the Neo supports all the most popular file formats, including ePub, pdf and even JPEG, the user can make sure they get the best deals on their eBooks.

There are several new attractive features available with the Neo, for instance, it has a powerful battery, supporting up to 7,000 page turns. The Freescale processor makes it currently the fastest eReader on the market, offering up to 2.5 times quicker browsing and operating speeds. The Neo also features the latest WACOM touch panel technology, which allows users to sketch, mark up and annotate text.

The open architecture of the BeBook Neo makes it possible to expand its capabilities. Keep an eye on for firmware updates.

Popular file formats

Just like the previous models, most popular file formats can be read, including ‘ePub’ and ‘PDF’ (both with and without Adobe DRM), txt and even popular picture file formats, like JPG, are included.

Lost Season 4: odds and ends

Thanks to the great folks at Lost Spoilers we’ve got some early photos of production and the ABC preview video shot guerilla style at Disney. All in all it’s not much to look at, but it does get us amped and only confirms that February can’t get here fast enough.

Lots of new casting for Season 4 and now we know for sure that one of the greatest shows on television is nearing a definitive end.

Most might have seen this video already, but it’s great to get a peak at a new station.

And those production photos of Matthew Fox, Evangeline Lily and newcomers Ken Leung and Jeremy Davies.

In this tutorial, you'll learn about and see a demonstration of the mobile app UDLinks. We'll begin with an introduction to the UDLinks app. Then we'll walk through the three main sections of the app, the class profile option, the resources section, and UDL principles. Let's get started. The UDLinks app was developed as a resource to help both teachers and parents locate online resources that are aligned with universal design for learning.

Teachers can use the app to search for lesson plans, tutorials, games, practice activities, and multimedia elements. All of these elements can be browsed by topic or searched for by keywords. Let's look first at the class profile section of the app. Here, teachers can refine the list of available resources by creating what's called a class profile. First, you indicate the desired content area and the desired grade level. Then decide what type of resource you are looking for.

Available options include multimedia presentations, lesson plans, simulations, practice activities, tutorials, collaborative tools, and games. Finally, select the desired outcome. What would you like the result to be after implementation of the resource? For example, are you looking to engage your students in a new way, or address content in a new method? Once you've selected your options, a list of available resources will appear. Once you've chosen a resource you can view it on your mobile device, market as a favorite within the UDLinks app, and share it with others.

Another way to locate resources is to use the resources option in the app. Here, you can search for lesson plans, multimedia, and other options by either topic or search term. Once again, when you've located a resource in this manner, you can also save it as a favorite, share it using social media or other methods, and view it on your mobile device. Finally, the UDL principles section of the app contains links to resources for both teachers and parents that are shared directly on the website of the center for applied special technology, or CAST.

You also have quick access to the favorites that you've marked in the app by pressing the favorites button at the bottom of the screen. In this tutorial, we introduced the UDLinks mobile app and you saw a demonstration of the functions of the app, including the class profile section, resources and the UDL principles. Now it's time for you to stop and reflect. Would you find the UDLinks app to be a helpful resource in your classroom or as a parent?

Will you share this resource with the parents and guardians of students in your classroom? For more information on how to apply what you learned in this video, please view the additional resources section that accompanies this video presentation. The additional resources section includes hyperlinks, useful for applications of the course material, including a brief description of each resource. Thanks for watching. Have a great day.

Using the TTS256 with the Voicebox Shield

What are we doing?

The TTS256 Text to Speech IC is a cool little chip that interfaces to the SpeakJet IC and allows the user to send a text string to the device and have the text automatically converted to sounds the SpeakJet can interpret. In essense you send english sentences to the TTS256 and then the Speakjet speaks the sentence aloud; how cool is that! While a person could certainly do this themselves the 'code cost' is very high; once the necessary code was written to interpret english you wouldn't have much code space left for your own application. The TTS256 means you can add text to speech to your project while still having plenty of room for other things.

In this short tutorial we'll cover how to add the TTS256 to the Voicebox Shield from SparkFun, and look at a basic sketch for sending sentences to the device.

What do I need?

Hook up the hardware!

There's not too much to do to get this project up and running; however there are a couple delicate solder connections that will have to be made. We'll start with the easy stuff though: solder the stackable headers onto the Voicebox Shield so that the male connectors are pointing down away from the components. Now we have to put the TTS256 IC onto the shield. The shield has 13 columns of prototyping vias, the TTS256 has 14 pins on each side. Bummer! A dirty fix that must be made is to bend pins 1 and 28 so that the rest of the chip can be put into the vias. Pin 1 is indicated on the IC with a little dot. Check it out below.
TTS256 with bent pins

Put the TTS256 with the bent pins into the vias on the Voicebox shield. Orient the chip so that the bent pins are facing the 'Vin' pin on the shield. We have to solder a wire to one of the bent pins and this will make it easier.
TTS256 inserted onto the Voicebox Shield

Now to the 'delicate' part; there are 5 signals that have to be connected on the TTS256. The table below describes the connections that need to be made. The 5V, GND and Rx pin of the TTS256 should be connected to shield header pins. The 'Ready' and Tx pins of the TTS256 will need to be wired to the Speakjet chip.

Signal Name TTS256 Pin Voicebox Pin Speakjet Pin Note
Vdd 28 5V -
GND 14 Gnd -
Rx 18 2 - Make sure that the jumper on the voicebox shield is removed.
SJ_Ready 20 - 15
SJ_Tx 24 - 10
TTS256 with signals wired
Jumper removed from pin 2 of Voicebox Shield

Now that the chip is soldered to the board correctly the only thing left to do is add a speaker. I added a 2 pin female header to the Voicebox shield and plugged wires from an 8 ohm speaker into them; but you can solder the speaker directly to the output terminals of the shield if you prefer.

Adding the Firmware

The TTS256 text to speech chip is quite easy to use; all that needs to be done is send a text string (english sentence) over a serial connection. In this project we'll use pin 2 on the Arduino for the serial transmission so that the hardware serial port isn't interfered with. Start by downloading the zip file from the Code Downloads section at the top of the tutorial. Unzip the folder in your Arduino sketchbook (the folder just contains a sketch). Once you've unzipped the folder open the sketch in Arduino.

If you check out the code you can see that it's a very basic sketch. After initializing all of the pins on the Voicebox shield along with the Tx pin that goes from the shield to the TTS256 pin the main code just waits for a string on the serial port. Once a carriage return character is received it is sent out through serial connection to the TTS256. The TTS256 takes the sentence and converts it to individual sound codes which are sent to the Speakjet chip. Finally the Speakjet chip converts the sound codes to sound and sends those sounds to the spekaer.

Compile and upload the code to your board. I actually didn't have much luck using the Arduino serial terminal; but if I used another terminal program like hyper-terminal, tera-term or X-CTU things worked out well. Once a connections is made (use the settings for 9600 baus, 8,N and 1) just type a sentence and press the 'enter' key. You'll find out that the rules the TTS256 chip uses to convert the words aren't always perfect; but in my case I found ways to manipulate the spelling of different words to achieve the desired sounds.

Good luck with your project!

  • I got this to work great right away. I am using putty on Windows 7 since there is no more hyperterminal. Just opened up the com port at 9600 and it worked. It says “ready” when you press the reset button anytime the Arduino is powered on. It did skip a couple of times, like stuck on repeat but that could have been stray capacitance since I was holding the Arduino. Creative spelling will get the sounds your looking for (example is u is often better replaced by o in most words. YMMV.
    Yes the new board is SMT, but the pinouts are identical, just be extra careful when soldering, clean your tip before every tiny joint.

  • I tried using this as a guide to connect the TTS256 to a SpeakJet on a breadboard. I changed the sketch to just use a fixed message and a 2 second delay between each time it sends it. I get the “ready” when it powers up, but then nothing. However, if I disconnect the Vout wire from the audio amp input (I’m using the Mono Audio Amp breakout) and then reconnect it, I’ll hear it output part of the message that is being sent. E.g. I’m sending the message “testing 1 2 3 testing four five six” and I’ll hear “1 2 3 testing” or “2 3 testing four five”.

    The SpeakJet data sheet shows a “two pole” low pass filter that I didn’t have the needed capacitors on hand to build. I’m guessing that circuit will help get rid of the high pitch whistle I currently get, but should it help with the incorrect output?

    I’m trying to get some of the niftier components figured out for projects for HS kids. They kid bored easily with the basic projects, so I’m hoping cool sound effects and text-to-speech might keep them engaged.

  • If you do not wish to bend the Pin 1 and 28 as recommended add two strip of 14 way ‘Turn-Pins’ cutting off pin 1 and 28 - There is no connection to pin 1 and wire pin28 to +5V by soldering a ‘wire-wrap’ wire to the underside of your home made socket. Remove the Jumper from JP2 - Look carefully on the SMT version of the voice shield the jumper is next to ‘TX’ and Digital I/O ‘2’. I was able to run a wire from pin-2 of JP2 via the via to pin 24 of TTS256 so the only wire that needed to be connected to Speak Jet was on pin 15.

  • Quick question, I am not sure about the components, I thought the SpeakJet was able to synthesize on its own, so what is the purpose of this extra chip, is it just a way to implement the communication protocol used by the SpeakJet? Something as shown below,

    Arduino -> Serial -> TTS256 -> (Something weird + serial data) -> SpeakJet -> Sound

    • You can certainly interface directly to the SpeakJet without the additional TTS chip. However, the SpeakJet only understands “allophenes”, the individual sounds that make up speech, so you’ll need to break your desired speech output into those sounds. You can do this yourself using the information and dictionary included in the SpeakJet documentation (see this tutorial). This works fine for a limited vocabulary, but if your application requires unlimited or arbitrary speech output, the TTS (Text To Speech) chip does the work of translating (more or less) any english text into the allophenes that the SpeakJet understands.

  • but in this video had show TTS256 need to interface with using a X-CTU to write the text..

    is TTS256 can stand alone without interface with X-CTU??

    and is it possible if by using a TTS256, it can run directly that means if we write it directly using keyboard and it will appear at the 16x2 LCD and when press “ENTER” it will pronounce the word?.

  • I bought this and when I tried to soder rx pin 18 to the shield pin 2 trace it came off. Will It still work if I connected it directly to the header pin 2 instead since I can no longer attach to the trace?

    • I hate when that happens! Yes, that should still work. There will normally be a little airspace when connecting boards together, so if you solder it to the very top of the pin on the underside of the shield, you should be fine. (If you won’t be plugging further shields into this one, you could also stick a wire jumper or 1-pin header into the socket end of pin 2 and get a connection that way). Good luck!

  • I bought this and when I tried to soder rx pin 18 to the shield pin 2 trace it came off. Will It still work if I connected it directly to the header pin 2 instead since I can no longer attach to the trace?

  • Is there a way of altering the output voice? Perhaps via something like Abelton? Or do we have to put up with mister robotic?

  • Thanks SparkFun! This works great!

  • I believe I followed all the instructions, and all I get is a varying number of ‘ready’ statements. No discernable difference in tone no matter what I send. Any luck getting this to work on a MAC using coolterm or cornflake? (Didn’t work on hyperterm on PC either).

  • Is this shield compatible with the Uno?

    • Yes, all shields compatible with the other Arduinos are compatible with the Uno as well.

  • I just received a shield as well, and yeah it looks slightly different. Did you remove the solder on pin 2? I think that’s what is meant by “jumper”.
    Where are you having the trouble? Does it do anything at all? Did you read this note about the datasheet: (note: The correct character to append to the end of text is 0x0D and not 0x0A as listed)?

    • I believe I had the same problem as Boppyer. And the problem was the jumper. The instrutions really aren’t as clear as they should be regarding this point. As you mentioned, you actually need to wipe away the solder on pin 2. Use a multi-meter and test if pin 10 on the speakjet is connected to pin 2 on the shield. If it is, the jumper connection still exists and needs to be wiped away. After making this change it worked.
      The new shields use a much smaller speakjet chip which makes doing the soldering even more difficult. You definitely need the very thing wire-wrapping wire to make these connections.

  • Anyone got this to working? I followed the instructions but I can’t get it to work :-( I also noticed the shield in the photo looks slightly different to the one I received from Sparkfun. Anyway to test that I’ve done it right?

  • I have the BMA180 breakout board going through a logic level converter into an Arduino Mini 04. I am able to communicate with the accelerometer and write changes to the registers but I have not been able to use the interrupt feature.
    Has anyone had luck triggering interrupts with the BMA180? I am looking to trigger an interrupt on a double tap (any axis), I have set the necessary settings and threshold but I still cannot trigger the interrupt.

No public wish lists :(

innerhalb 2 Tagen lieferbar

Vast is Vornheim, The Grey Maze…

…but I'm not here to bore you with that. This book is not about Vornheim, it’s about running Vornheim – or any other city – in a fantastic Medieval setting. And about running it with a minimum of hassle – so you and your players can get to the good stuff…That’s why we called it a ‘Kit’ – you can use it to build your own city, even in the middle of a game. Give somebody a floorplan and they’ll GM for a day – show them how to make 30 floorplans in 30 seconds and they’ll GM forever.

That said, anyone hoping they bought a book containing The Real Vornheim That The D&D With Pornstars Girls Play In has got it. These are our rules and tables and monsters and places. I wouldn't want to spend all this time writing a book I could't use...

– from the introduction

We asked Zak S., the game master of I Hit With My Axe, to make a little book full of the notes he had when running city adventures – and everything he wished he had.  He gave us not only a sourcebook detailing key rules, tables, monsters and places in Vornheim – the city at the center of the Axe campaign – but also a treasure chest of resources for running adventures in any city.
Need to know how to get from here to there even if neither here nor there are listed on a map? Even if there is no map? Need a random encounter? Need instant stats for that random encounter? Need to know why there was a random encounter?  This book was designed to help you make a city happen now.

In addition to details on Vornheim, adventure locations, and player commentary from the I Hit It With My Axe girls, every single surface below this jacket – including the back of the jacket, the book covers underneath, and the inside covers – has been crammed full of tools to help you build and run a city in a First, Second, Third, or Fourth Edition game.

Changes made to Marina Bay Circuit ahead of Singapore GP

The Singapore Grand Prix will be held from the 18th to the 20th of September in the island-nation.

The Marina Bay Circuit in the island-nation of Singapore

Singapore GP, who are the race promoters and organisers of the Singaporean Grand Prix at the Marina Bay Circuit, announced modifications to the street track, which is raced at night. The news was released on the official website of the Singaporean Grand Prix this morning.

Work is on at the Civic District in the island nation, and in order to harmonise this construction with the current layout at the Marina Bay Circuit, the stretch on the track from Turn 11 to Turn 13 has been reworked. These changes will mean slightly slower turning speeds at that chicane, and lane positions for drivers will also switch as a result of changes to the entire stretch.

It is not all bad news for racing enthusiasts, however. Turn 13, a hairpin bend, will be widened by a metre. This will give drivers more opportunities to overtake during the stretch between Anderson Bridge and Esplanade Drive. The Straits Times and official Formula One Twitter also carried the information later in the day, with organisers Singapore GP announcing the news on social media:

Changes have also been proposed to make the race more fun for spectators and TV audiences. The newly constructed Jubilee Bridge, the brainchild of Singapore’s Minister Mentor Lee Kuan Yew, was opened to the public during his funeral earlier this year, and will be part of the racing.

 Singapore GP's deputy chairman Colin Syn told Singaporean newspaper The Straits Times "It's a win-win situation that the development of the new arts, culture and lifestyle precinct will provide an upgraded experience, but also potentially make for closer racing at this year's F1 Singapore Grand Prix."

France leads Czechs 2-1 in Davis Cup

Wimbledon doubles champions Nicolas Mahut and Pierre-Hugues Herbert had to fight hard to defeat Lukas Rosol and Radek Stepanek 6-1 3-6 6-3 4-6 6-4 to give France a 2-1 lead over the Czech Republic in the Davis Cup quarterfinals on Saturday.

A week after beating Julien Benneteau and Edouard Roger-Vasselin in straight sets to clinch their first Wimbledon title, Mahut and Herbert needed five sets on the indoor hard court for a victory that puts France one win away from a Davis Cup semifinal.

Amid increased security following the deadly attack in the French city of Nice, Mahut closed it out with an overhead volley on the first match point in the eastern Czech city of Trinec.

In Sunday’s first reverse singles, Jo-Wilfried Tsonga can clinch the best-of-five series with a victory over Jiri Vesely. If he fails, the tie will be decided in the final reverse singles with Rosol facing Lucas Pouille.

On Friday, Rosol prevailed after almost four hours over Tsonga 6-4 3-6 4-6 7-6 (8) 6-4 to put the Czechs 1-0 ahead before Pouille made a victorious Davis Cup debut for France by beating Vesely 7-6 (2) 6-4 7-5 to level the tie at 1-1.

On the Czech pair, Rosol replaced originally named Adam Pavlasek who had a back problem, and struggled with his serve throughout. He was broken in the opening game of the final set in what turned out to be the decisive break.

The French pair didn’t waste time, jumping to a 3-0 lead in the first set that Mahut served out with an ace.

The Czechs replied with a 3-0 lead in the second set and Stepanek served it out with a service winner to come back.

Rosol double-faulted to drop his serve in the third set for the Czechs to trail 3-1. They saved two set points at 5-2 before Rosol’s return hit the net on the third set point.

In the most dramatic fourth set, Herbert gave the Czechs a chance to tie the set at 4-4 after two straight double faults. The French wasted a break point in the following game and the Czechs took the set when Herbert’s volley hit the net.

The winner faces the United States or Croatia in the semifinal in September.

In the last semifinals two years ago, France beat the Czechs before losing to Switzerland in the final. France won the last of its nine cups in 2001. The Czechs won in 2012 and 13.

My Favorite Bold Coffee #8 – Sumatra

For the past 30 years, I’ve started each day with a coffee press of Sumatra or, when it’s available, Aged Sumatra.

Sumatra was the first Starbucks coffee I ever tasted. I encountered it on my first visit to the Pike Place store in 1981. It was distinctive, unmistakable…Sumatra.

I described that first sip in my book Pour Your Heart Into It. What I wrote then still describes how I feel about this coffee today.

“As we spoke, the counterman scooped out some Sumatra coffee beans, ground them, put the grounds in a filter cone, and poured hot water over them. Although the task took only a few minutes, he approached the work almost reverently, like an artisan. When he handed me a porcelain mug filled with the freshly brewed coffee, the steam and the aroma seemed to envelop my entire face. There was no question of adding milk or sugar. I took a small, tentative sip. Whoa. I threw my head back, and my eyes shot wide open. Even from a single sip, I could tell it was stronger than any coffee I had ever tasted. Seeing my reaction, the Starbucks people laughed, ‘Is it too much for you?’ I grinned and shook my head. Then I took another sip. This time I could taste more of the full flavors as they slipped over my tongue. By the third sip I was hooked.”

    I love your X-bold roasts. On the other hand, if all I had to drink was your new blond roast, I would probably give up coffee altogether.

      TO RMCNUTT383 If I had to drink Blonde roast I am sorry but I would have to give up drinking coffee altogether. Most people are ignorant of the fact that the Bold dark roasts have less caffeine than any of the others.. But my LOVE of strong coffee started with my first café expresso. Since I wanted to taste the coffee I could not put any sugar (sweetener) or dairy products. . That was in 1967 and I still drink coffee Black and Hot.

    Ah, Sumatra... nothing better in the morning or anytime fo the day. For awhile I was trying Suluwesi (sp) but it had a sweetness that Sumatra didn't have. So it's me and Sumatra to the end. Thank you Starbucks for this great blend. I am originally from Seattle where it all started and I was there in line. Thanks

    Sumatra has been my favorite since the first time I tried it. I travel overseas quite often and always take sumatra in my bag so I can have coffee where I can't easily get it. I don't know how I could function without it.

    Nonetheless, Sumatra is for true coffee lovers. If you really like coffee, not light coffee, coffee with milk, moca-java or other coffee concoction, but your really like coffee (espresso, dark roast, european, turkish), sumatra will be your favorite too.

    I first met Sumatran Coffee at a café in Eugene, Oregon around 1985. It was so delightful to taste that I had to ask what it was. It was their house coffee and it was Sumatran. Nothing else comes close to the magnificent flavor and texture of Sumatran. I recommend it to everyone. And Starbucks has the very best.

    As a resident of Hawai'i, the only commercial coffee producing state in the US it is distressing in reading your recent post and discussion of "the Coffee Belt" that our island state in not even shown on the map provided, let alone acknowledging our coffee crop production. We value our various coffees, and would not expect them to be served by Starbucks, given the scope of the organization and the extensive market from which the beans are drawn worldwide. Couldn't we at least be on the map?

“…it is often said that from the standpoint of “after” realization (note the quotation marks), nothing ever happened …” … “…to realize emptiness is to realize the interdependence of what one thought was fixed and independent …” ~ Greg Goode

In Part 3 of this series – Can We Equate Emptiness with Advaita? – Greg completes the differences between Emptiness and Advaita … and concludes the series.

In the awareness teachings, realization of the nature of the Self is something that happens once per lifetime. Depending on the teaching, there might be several different stages to this realization, but regardless of the process, it is not something that can be repeated (or needs to be). In fact, it is often said that from the standpoint of “after” realization (note the quotation marks), nothing ever happened. Who could it have happened to? Oftentimes, depending on the particular awareness teaching, there is not a lot to say about the process or the person who undergoes the process.

In the emptiness teachings there is a lot to say. Whether before or after realization, it is not regarded as unwarranted to speak of the conventionally existent person. The conventionally existent person is an informal designation based upon the essenceless, fluctuating assembly of psychophysical parts. In the spirit of this informal designation, the person exists (conventionally). This person is the one who suffers, meditates on emptiness and does other practices, and who realizes the emptiness of the self. It is all conventional, including the Buddhist teachings themselves.

Another difference is that the realization of emptiness can happen many times. Each realization, even a tiny one, promotes lightness, vibrancy and openness of heart. There can be more than one because to realize emptiness is to realize the interdependence of what one thought was fixed and independent. Since there are many ways for things to depend on each other, there are many different ways these interdependencies can be seen and realized. Each realization strengthens one’s insight.

Some Mahayana Buddhist teachings distinguish between inferential realization of emptiness, which happens through the mediation of a concept, and direct realization of emptiness, which happens unmediated by concepts. One’s first direct realization of emptiness, according to these teachings, eliminates a significant part of one’s afflictive emotions forever. But this direct realization can be repeated many times (even over lifetimes of rebirths according to some Mahayana teachings), so that compassion is increased and the lingering roots of ignorance can be eradicated. The point here is not so much exactly what happens according to certain teachings, but rather that realizing emptiness is something that can happen many times. It even happens after one’s own suffering has come to an end. Why continue if one’s suffering has ceased? This is related to the Bodhisattva ideal, according to which one devotes one’s energies to the eradication of others’ suffering.

realization emptiness awareness

Talking about realization

In the awareness teachings, it is quite common to talk about one’s own realization or other aspects of one’s spiritual state. Often this is part of a teacher’s teachings. “I did it; you can too.”

In the emptiness teachings, this is rarely heard, if ever. Buddhist teachers may talk about the realization of someone in the past, and you might hear how difficult and earth-shattering this realization is. But people tend not to talk about their own case. At least I have never heard it. In over 15 years of studying these teachings, working with teachers, visiting temples and monasteries, and reading thousands pages of emptiness teachings, I can’t recall even one time that someone said, “Back when I directly realized emptiness….”

Support: Nissen's Grandchildren

November18, 2006: It's been about a century now since portable military structures (rigid, not tents) first appeared. During World War I (1914-1918) the Nissen hut was invented by a Canadian engineer. These were basically semicircular structures, made from pre-formed corrugated metal, with wood or masonry to close off the two ends.

The Quonset Hut of World War II, was based on the British metal Nissen huts of World War I. It was the U.S. Navy that asked for a new design in 1941, and a factory was built near Quonset Point, Rhode Island, to produce the new, American, design. Over 170,000 Quonset huts were built during World War II. Many were used by the military into the 1970s, and a few are still standing. Many were sold off as surplus after World War II, and can still be found in different parts of the country.

Quonset Huts are basically prefabricated structures made out of metal. With, or without, a concrete slab for a foundation, they can be quickly erected, and protect their inhabitants from the elements. Well some elements. But not the heat, or the cold. These structures were often not insulated, and being made of metal, they proved very hot in the tropics, and very cold in chilly climates. But they had plenty of screened windows, to let in what breeze was available. In cold weather, they usually had two or three space heaters, fueled by "jerry cans" of diesel. Unfortunately, one can only lasted about six hours, so someone either got up in the pre-dawn hours to put on some fresh fuel, or everyone woke up real chilly. And nothing woke you up faster than your bare feet hitting frigid concrete. The Quonset Huts rarely came with toilets, which, in typical army fashion, were in separate buildings, along with the showers. Again, in Winter, it was a bracing experience going to and from the shower.

The Quonset Hut had a semicircular roof, but also vertical walls, plus windows and doors. The original design was 36 feet long and 16 wide (with an eight foot ceiling). The most common design was 20 by 48 feet, with a ten foot ceiling. This model, the most widely produced, weighed about 3.5 tons, and required 325 cubic feet of shipping space to transport overseas. Some users, if they had the rank and resources, could add wood paneling, insulation and all manner of amenities to the interiors. The largest Quonset Hut was the three hundred, 40 by 100 foot, warehouse models, each of which weighed twenty tons, knocked down and ready for shipping.

After World War II, it took several decades for military prefab structure technology to make any more bold jumps. But by the end of the 20th century, new portable and prefab structures had appeared. Some of these were just better, "self-erecting" tents. Other used inflatable structures, or lightweight panels that quickly snapped together. Another popular portable structure was the 40 or 20 foot long shipping containers, that come loaded to a combat zone, but either leave empty, or stay and provide an instant building.

    I fell in love with these beatiful sneakers, but how does a middle-aged guy pull these off without looking like a twenty-something?? I stay more towards the clean cut, business casual or "off duty" look, so these would be perfect at times. I've just never worn tennis shoes for anything other than around the house when I'm in sweats or a track suit. They're such a classic and a "must buy".. just gorgeous! Thanks for any/all advice and feedback!

    Seven months, Seven months i've been dragged through this maddening struggle and i'm still not free, i'm not here to preach guys, as i type these words i am still a victim, who knows, maybe i always will be, but the important thing is that maybe, by sharing my experience, you won't have to live like this.....if what i'm experiencing right now can be considered a life.....

    It all started seven months ago when i began to go out with this guy, he was funny and honest, i could be myself with him, so we had a really good relationship for about three months, we were both gamers, we both liked minecraft, and he was a freaking genius which i always liked XD. It was perfect everything was.....perfect really.

    Then around our three month anniversary he cheated on me with this one girl who claimed was his "soulmate" but somehow, i don't even know how, he basically talked me into being his lover on the side, and i'm only to blame for that stupid move, i know, these days i wish every day i'd simply had the courage to walk away, but i didn't, maybe i never will......

    Anyways after i basically became his prostitute the mind games started, i became depressed and yet, when i told him about it he said my problems were insignifigant because he had a friend who had been raped and whose father constantly beat her and she didn't complain half as much as i did, so therefore my problems were nothing, then one time he and his friends ganged up on me during a wifi minecraft game and yet, every time, like an idiot i forgave him and took him back....it was a battle of wills and his was stronger than mine, if i wasn't with him i felt empty and drained, i was so depressed.....Maybe, maybe this is all my fault, i let him get to me, i let him get inside my mind and posess me like the demon he was and for all i know, still is and to this day i let him continue. At the moment we're back together after a two or three month break, he isn't dating anyone else (he's never bothered to hide if he was or not, so i can trust that) iwe're both imperfect humans, but together, together we are.....something acceptable to the human race, and apart we're absolute trash, we both know this and so....our relationship might continue forever......i was once so much better i had a hopeful future, and i still do academically, but emotionally, i can't give a damn anymore, i can't feel anything but stress and pain, so take my warning, don't let anyone manipulate you like this, don't be like me and fall for the sweet tongue with jagged teeth.....this isn't a life, i'm simply existing miserably, you don't want this beleive me, the few happy moments i get aren't worth all this pain, and the worst part is i can't tell anyone because they just brush it off as teen angst....oh dear readers if only you knew.......if only you knew that this teen has experienced more pain in a year than some people do their entire lives.

    Hi, ciera800. I'm so sorry someone has treated you this way. You deserve better. Total Eclipse has made a good suggestion - some therapy/counselling to help you sort out your own feelings and to give you some support as you work out what you will do.

    Hi Ciera..NO BODY deserves to be treated in this manner, it is unacceptable to most people. Honestly, I would get myself out of the situation and see how happy/sad I am after that? What have you got to lose?

    ciera800 Member

    I did leave him, more than once and i just.....i felt empty inside, like i couldn't feel a thing, but when i let him back in, i felt two emotions stress and happiness, and to me, that's better than nothing at all.

Letting Go.....

    Letting Go

    What do you do when your spirit has lost the will to live?
    And the windows to your Soul are glazed with a misty sheen of vacancy?
    What do you do when your heart beats rapid, but not for love?
    And when every magnificent sunset fails to stir emotion?
    What do you do when endless sighs are all that you breathe?
    And the laughter has turned to tears?
    What do you do when love turns to hate?
    And the spring in your step now ambles a sluggish trail?
    What do you do when you no longer hear the song of a bird?
    But the voices in your mind that tell you to give up?
    What do you do?

    You seek help!

    I wrote that poem when I was at the lowest of the low. When I resided in the abyss and gave up on life. I later added the "You seek help"

    I have read many of your posts. Some of whom were, and/or are... suicidal. I want to say to you that it does get better. Here is an old cliche: "Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem." It is one that I have to agree with.

    We ALL have problems, some large, some small, some gigantic. If you view these problems more as challenges in which to learn and grow from it certainly makes life easier. We were not all born perfect; if we did not experience pain we would never evolve and become stronger beings. We would either remain stagnant or regress. The choice is yours, and ONLY yours!

    If you choose to bury your problems beneath the dusty carpet they are never going to go away. You can suppress them within your subconscious until another one comes along, then do the same with that. Eventually you may implode. How can we possibly think lucidly with all that mush floating around in our heads?

    If you want to die, there is a reason. If you are oblivious to the reason then you may well have a chemical imbalance and need medication. If you do know the problem..... Confront it! Deal with it, and move on.

    Do not tell me it cannot be done! I was raised by a mentally abusive father who I adored. My mother was a manic depressive who was dealing with her own crisis at hand, and I was thrown out on the street when I was 16. I lived a life of mental hell. Yes, I even attempted suicide at one point. I ended up at a mental health facility where I felt incarcerated for 72 hours.

    Upon my release I "Woke Up". I looked my pain and fears in the face and I overcame all that crap. Only YOU can help you. People can support us and guide us in the right direction. They can listen to our plight and prescribe us meds, but only you can make the choice to heal yourself.

    Another thing, if you do decide to kill yourself imagine the intense pain you are going to cause those left behind. Is it really fair to put your loved ones through that agony because you couldn't hang? Face your problems. Face your fears. Face your pain. Don't suppress it. Get it out there.

    It's been 3 years since my suicide attempt, and I am now an advocate for suicide prevention. Life DOES get better! but you have to work at it, nobody said life was easy... You are feeding your soul. I am living proof that life gets better, and you have to believe that.

    Existing in a land of grim oblivion, corrupt from the scars of life,
    Naked daydreams reflect upon a present state of consciousness and strife.

    Depression lurks, while darkened clouds emit a shadow over the desperate soul, splintered thoughts of a dejected philosophy curb to a silent anger,
    That devours the tender spirits goal, while a barren mind digests
    Every aching moment, of survival.

    Imprisoned and chained by the negative state of despondency and oppression, a supraliminal erosion of self satisfaction dominates the regression.

    Forgotten is the destiny I chose.

    The habitual discovery of life from which the Soul matures,
    As the cruel ascendance of pain encompasses a weary spirit,
    Deluding of all cures, anxiety and stress seep undetected from my pores,
    Favoring demented suicidal thoughts to conceal confrontation,
    Cowardly starving the soul of enlightened elevation.

    Forgotten, is the destiny I chose.

    Each and every obstacle a stagnant reminder of a trivial existence,
    Met with the seemingly turbulent unknown, while destiny a waits.

    Fractured, worn, and torn, from the deceptive onslaughts of pain my joyful spirit awakens. Twisted attempts of destruction make way for positive fulfillment, and powerful acceptance forsaken.
    Fear not, such lessons of life.

    From the book Dying to Live, confessions of suicide. YOU DO NOT.....Need to go this route!

    "I continued to wash down more pills with the alcohol and heard the familiar you’ve got voice mail tone, two in fact. The first was from my roommate, and the second still reads clear in my mind today. “ This is the local police dept, we’re just calling to make sure you are okay, if you have an emergency call 911” I remember thinking Oh that’s just great! Now the police are involved. This fleeting concern was superseded by the knowledge that I will be dead by the time they find me. Swallowing some more pills I sat in my car in this dark secluded spot and leaned back into my seat, I closed my eyes and waited for the drugs to kick in.

    I was fiercely tired, physically, mentally and emotionally, I wanted to sleep and never wake up. I was scared, confused, saddened that my life had come to this. I recall laughing through the pain that I was still relatively alert from having taken so many sleeping pills, but this is no joke. Had I of witnessed myself from above throughout this ordeal to end my life, I would have been deeply distressed. I would have cried and pleaded for it to stop, cradling her saying “It is going to be okay” IT IS GOING TO BE OKAY! Never once did I hear these words.

    MY words however, echoed turbulently through my consciousness:
    Was she even looking down on her daughter?
    Like a child, I needed my mother.

    Before I knew it, I saw some extremely bright effervescent headlights speeding towards me, the lights were so blinding they stunned my vision. I had no idea who this was, and why they were invading my space. The car came to a sudden halt when out stepped my roommate and her girl friend. I must have had a sheer look of terror on my face because I was truly astounded at how they managed to find me, this being the first question I posed during what appeared to be a delusion. I was in utter shock. She raced up to my window, and asked me what I had taken; I reluctantly showed her the bottle, as she commented that the police were on the way.

    I became distraught again while informing her that I didn’t have Health Insurance and if they found me they will whisk me off to the hospital and quite possibly a Mental Home. I tried to engineer a deal with her, insisting I will force vomit if she allowed me to go with them instead of the police. At that moment I overheard her tell my roommate that the police had arrived. I was still crying uncontrollably as I sat there waiting to be grilled. The policeman was calm and collective as he informed me “We’re not going to arrest you, but it is illegal to commit suicide in the State of California.” I looked at him with tears streaming down my face, and affirmed with a questionable “It’s MY life” He asked me how many pills I had taken, and the inevitable “Why did you do it?” I was honest and forthright, and of course always respectful. Upon recollection, it seemed as though he was talking to me for ten minutes or so, while another officer had at one point leaned through my passenger window and confiscated the remainder of my alcohol. I really do not recall much more of the conversation, though I have a vivid recollection of my descent from the car. I was not at all happy with regards to being found, and was less appreciative upon witnessing the army of police vehicles that surrounded me. I threw my arms to the side in disbelief, thinking ‘this is insane, why all the commotion?”

    The police officer led me to the ambulance where I was immediately given oxygen, together with a rather nasty squeezable tube of charcoal, which I was forced to consume in its entirety. I have since learned that this disgusting concoction is known as ‘Activated charcoal’ which not only induces vomit, but primarily helps to prevent the absorption of drugs, and other poisonous substances by the stomach and intestines. I squeezed a couple of doses into my mouth, and then handed it back to the paramedic in disgust. He then informed me that I have to drink the entire tube. I thought there is no way I can drink the rest of this, but I tried relentlessly knowing that since I am not now going to die, I might as well make an effort of coming out of this relatively unscathed. I remember wiping my mouth a few times, and seeing this thick black matter all over my hands and arms. The following afternoon when I awoke I was a sight for sore eyes. My eyes were swollen from crying all evening, my face was bloated, and I had somehow managed to get the charcoal on my forehead and cheeks. I was a wreck! Physically - mentally - emotionally."

    I truly hope your empty words of promises work for some. If you had uttered those words some 30 years ago to me I might of bit. But I have been fighting, holding on for that better tomorrow, struggling to see the day when things do get better. But I have come full circle in this battle so many times and each time it feels like that circle is tightening around my neck. I'm 45 and at the point where there are no more solutions. No mom or dad to turn to, no family that can take the time to care, they have problems of their own, no miracle cures for my cancer, no prince to come riding in on a white stallion to whisk me away. And all along I fight, for me. I work damn hard for me. I put out the brave me and try to find any other solution. Try to even keep the roof over our heads. But I am only human, and am so tired and used up from all the fighting and struggling, from it all. I fight for me but there really isnt any me left!! And at the end of each day I say what the Hell for????

    I get so tired of seeing the same thing "it will get better". Yes for some it will. I hope that your words can help those people. And I am so grateful that it does. But for some it just cant. That is the reality of life.

    Yes it depends on an individuals situation. My "Empty" words have helped some people because they have filled them with hope. I struggled also for 43 years, felt the same way you do. I didn't find happiness through a knight in shining armor, or by winning the lottery, but by working on my pain and my situation. I did it alone, my parents are also deceased, and when they were alive they didn't care anyway. I cried out for help many times and never received it. I was always told" Well you made your bed" That's when I figured the only way I am going to get well is if I help myself. Change my life. Completely.

    I had to change my perception of life. I started to smile at people, and they smiled back. Instead of resenting them, everyone. I resented people because of my own disposition, it wasn't their fault that they were successful while I was struggling, banging my head against a wall.

    If something isn't working, it needs to be changed. If it cannot be changed it needs to be accepted before it eats you alive.

    How we view the world, is our perception of life. Our reality is our perception. I have been homeless, living on the street, I had not eaten for three days because I had no money, then I had my car broken into, my purse stolen, later had my car repossessed, filed bankruptcy. I had crap after crap happen to me. I had no choice but to turn my life around.

    I am proud of my efforts to have fought the battle. I still experience crap, but I wont go back to where I once was.

    itmahanh Senior Member & Antiquities Friend

    And so you should be... proud of what you have done for yourself. Proud that you have had the opportunities to make change happen. And proud that you want to help others to achieve the same thing. I guess I just get frustrated when time after time people present "this things will get better" and really believe that it can apply to everyone. It simple doesnt. When I hear people say that to me, it really makes all the effort I have put forth, for so many years, seem meaningless. Like as if all the years of fighting just to hold my head never mind above water but even just below the surface were for what? Because someone who had the right opportunities fall their way and were able to change things for the better uttered them? I and many others have struggled as much or even more than you may of. You made it. Be proud. But it isnt always going to be a happy ending for everybody no matter how much we all want to belive that. I had hope once. No matter what words are said, it wont be coming back. So please keep reaching out and try to help as many as you can. But please dont forget that sometimes what you say can be just as hurtful to some as it is helpful to others.

    I have accepted that things wont get better or be changed or fixed. I have accepted that suicide is my solution. I take great pleasure in smiling back at people. I dont resent others. I live in a small rural community where it is still "acceptable" to wave at a car as it passes you. To just stop in the middle of what you are doing to have a chat with a neighbor who just "stopped by". That there is a lazy, laid back attitude about life in general here. Living here has been my saving many times. But it isnt going to fix or change my problems. If I cant then I cant expect someone else to be able to do it either.

    I am truly grateful that there are people out there that really do want to help others. I'm grateful that there are success stories such as yours. And I hope that you can help atleast one other person. Good luck.

    I know, I wish you luck too itmahanh. I am just trying to shine a positive light because I have been in the abyss, suffered mentally, tried to take my life, and came through to finally smell the scent of the blossoms.

    I am not lessening your personal battle by any means.

    Thank you for sharing with us chooselife. For some, finding out that yes, things can change and for the better, is all they need to give that glimmer of hope that keeps them fighting to continue on. For those that have struggled and no longer have that sliver of hope, perhaps they can be thankful that for some, life does get better. If it makes the difference for just one, then the purpose has been served. Again, thank you for your post. :hug:

Any good live recording aps for Android tablets?

    I recently picked-up a 7" Android tablet (Nexus 7). It has a mic and basic recorder function, but seems to be aimed at personal voice recording and notetaking. I've also looked at some of the little portable digital recorders like the little stereo Zoom. So, my question:

    Can anybody recommend a decent quality digital audio recorder app for Android tablets (not phones) suitable for recording live music?

    I don't need a multi-track studio with mixing capability - I have all that already - just something with good audio quality to use at gigs to capture how the band sounds?

    You'd think with all the built-in capability of these tablets (and 32 gigs of memory - more than my desktop!) that there would be something similar to what they're doing with those small digital recorders. I've heard the little mic can do pretty well for mp3-quality recording with a good recorder app. I'd like to hear what it can do with live music.

    Even better would be the ability to clip, trim, edit and organize audio clips. Any experience or suggestions?

  1. my parents have been toying around with opening a music store, and my bro and i have been assigned the task to research info on obtaining a dealership license from companies...do any of you know how to do that? like do you have to qualify to carry a certain company...and if so, what kind of criteria do you have to meet?? any info would be so greatly appreciated.

    I could be talking out of my patootie, but I think you'll have to have a business license first.

    I do know there might be restrictions on the product you might be able to carry based on what other stores are already offering in your region. You might want to look around, see what's absent from other stores and buy accordingly. The old "find a need and fill it" principle.

    Hope this helps.
  3. oh i know about the whole business license thing, my parents are handling all that stuff, as far as financing and whatnot, my mom has a degree in business, haha, so thats not the proble, this was just what task i was assigned, as to not work everyone in the family to death. but thanks for your help. we are quite far from alot of music stores quite actually,thats why we have the hankeirng to open one here. thank you very much for your help.
  4. i suggest hanging a huge disco ball from the middle of teh celing in your store. otherwise i have nothing to say...

There are over two dozen different 501C classifications that the United States Internal Revenue Code uses to categorize organizations qualifying for federal income tax exemption. The largest and what most think of as a charitable entity is the 501C3. This classification includes organizations whose primary activities are either charitable, educational, religious, literary, animal and children cruelty prevention, scientific, or public safety testing.

Charitable trusts under the 501(c)(90) classification are also quite common with 127,000+ organizations and over $100 billion in assets. Many wealthy families and corporations have entities under this category. Other large classifications include 501(c)(6) business leagues, 501(c)(5) labor organizations, and 501(c)(4) civic and social welfare organizations.

Product Description
"Add It" can be sung to the tune of "Happy" by Pharrell Williams and helps students remember key points about addition. Students LOVE dancing around the room and clapping hands like in the music video too!

The lyrics are included in 2 different formats as shown in the thumbnails. A page of Key Points is also included.

Key Points:
• Addition and subtraction are opposite operations.
• Adding numbers together produces a total called a sum.
• One addition hint is to find the largest digit, then start there and count up to find the sum.
• Altogether and in all are clues that may signal the need for addition.
• One way to make adding more than 2 digits easier is to try and find a combination that makes 10, and add on from there.
• Adding means counting forward, so the sum will always be bigger than either addend.

Music is NOT included. You can almost always find the original song and an instrumental version for free on YouTube or for sale on iTunes. Or you could just sing it a cappella!

I’d appreciate your purchase, your rating, and your feedback.

Thank you from The Brighter Rewriter!
