I have some questions:
1) is there any other way of setting the flywheel to the right position,(other than using a compass) before applying the 36 volts? Piston position?
2) Once the flywheel (magnets) are in the correct position, is this repeated every 90 degrees? and if so could the exact 90 degrees not be accurately found by turning the crank exactly 90 degrees?
You can get position the flywheel by looking inside the transmission cover but you need a compass to get the correct polarity. Once set you can turn 90 degrees for other points. One successful way is covered in:
Make sure the car is pointed east-west.
How well does this work compared to removing the magnets, recharging them individually, etc etc?
The two posts on the above thread that answer your questions are:
Sept. 14, 2010, 1:41pm and
Sept. 14, 2010, 7:38pm.
The most reliable way to find the N magnet is with a compass with the hogshead off, especially if the magnets are so weak that it is difficult to get a reliable compass reading through the thick hogshead.
Jim Patrick
Charging the magnets individually is best but I have done it in the car many times with great results.
Since individual charging of magnets requires removal of the engine from the car, a separation of of the engine from the oil pan and complete dismantlement of the transmission, requiring many hours of of work, not to mention new screws, spools, magnet face plates, gaskets, a homemade charging unit and possibly an expensive magneto gapping tool, charging of weak magnets in the car, between overhauls, is the most convenient way for most of us, to charge the magnets and, if done correctly, is just as effective in magnet strength, longevity and performance.
The above thread documented my experience in charging my magnets in the car in September of 2010 and almost 2 years later, my car starts easily on MAG and runs strong, providing more than enough current to the various systems. To be honest, now that I have done it this way and had such great results in a fraction of the time, expense and effort, I would not consider any other method. Jim Patrick
I did mine several years ago in the car, I did not know about the east-west thing and remembering back my car was facing north, everything worked fine and still is.
I agree that the in car charging works but it does not enable you to check the condition of the magnets. Ron Paterson was kind enough to offer to charge my magnets individually when I mentioned that I was working on the magneto of my '12. But for his offer, I was going to recharge the magnets in place. Turns out one of the magnets was cracked and would have eventually let go causing lots of mischief. For me, especially if the motor is out of the car, the only way to go is to take the magnets out and do them individually
If you have the transmission removed from the engine, the magnets can be charged by placing the transmission(magnets in placed) on the mag ring. Correct placement using the compass is required, but with "0" spacing between the magnets and the mag ring results in maximum charging of the magnets.
One of the model T books covers this procedure, do not remember which, but it works and sometime it is difficult to separate the mag ring from the magnets.
Thanks all, I did this procedure 3 years ago, but only in one position as I had not seen mention of the need to repeat every 90 degrees.
Using (3) 12v batteries connected by charging cables and with the positive pole clamped to the magneto post, touch 8 times (1 sec. touch each) at each 90 degree position in rapid succession (total of 32 times) with the negative clamp.
So as not to bugger up any of the machined faces connect an old bolt and nut to one of the bare steel surfaces and the touch the negative clamp to the top of the bolt. There should be a bright flash so wear eye protection. Jim Patrick
PS. If there is no spark, either you don't have a good connection, or your mag coil is bad and needs to be rebuilt. Jim Patrick
I found the instructions I used to do my in car charge several years ago, I don't no what voltage I ended up with as I have never checked that, but still runs fine on mag and a bittner magneto battery charger as well.
Thanks to all for word on how to recharge magnets in car. Found my compass today, removed the floor boards, magneto wire and found correct position for charging and marked crank pulley at 90 degree. Connected 2 12v batteries (only have 2) and zapped each position 6 times. Started on battery and first thing I noticed was headlamps. Never been this bright. Turned key to mag position and runs without miss firing. Thanks to all for your help via this post.
Make sure the car is pointed east-west. (End Quote)
That was a Joke, right Gary
No, think about it. With the car pointed north how will you know you have found the north magnet and not the north pole of the earth? With the car pointed east west you have a very clear indication of when the north pole of the magnet is in position. I have done this procedure twice and can tell you pointing the car east-west is the way to go. Guess how I found this out.
I don't know if it is a joke but I do know that it is sound advice that makes sense to me and has been suggested almost everytime whenever this subject come up, so, when I did mine using the in car method, I made sure to position my engine to an East to West alignment so the N compass reading I was getting could not be attributed to magnetic north, but to the N magnet I was trying to locate. Jim Patrick
When you hold a compass close enough, and in the right spot it should be, to get a reading, even if you had the car on a revolving turn table, it wouldn't make any difference. Compass needles are only affected from a magnetic, or metal source which happens to be the closest. In this case the magnet source is the stronger.
When a compass needle gets close to a magnet, that magnet has control of the needle.
All the instructions in the Ford Books, and Dikes Books, and the Factory units, made to do that job, left east-West out, so how could it have worked then.
Just another wild tail that somebody comes up with, and gets passed around with out any thought!
So, Gary, I say to you, think about it.
Not if the magnets are too weak to get a reading such as in the case of my magnets. That's why I had to recharge them. When I tried to get a reading through the hogshead with the front of the engine facing west, the compass needle pointed toward the right side of the engine (magnetic north). It was only after I removed the hogshead that I could get the compass close enough to the magnets to locate a N magnet. It's still sound advice in my book and one step I will not skip. Jim Patrick
Jim, that is the way it works, the needle will be side ways when you have the compass in the wrong spot, or the other way is NOT having the flywheel in the right position, that is it is pulling North, and South equal to each other in strength, that is normal.
If that is the condition you get, you either move the flywheel, or the compass, NOT the car. You just didn't get it in the right spot.
I didn't post that information for people such as yourself who know it all. It was intended for someone such as myself who as done it and found locating N to be easier if the compass wasn't confused between the magnet and the north pole.
You have once again lept into something proclaiming yourself to be the end of all knowledge on a subject.
BTW, a compass will point at the strongest field with relation to its position rather than the closest. If your in doubt (and I know your not because you know it all), lay a magnet out of a hard drive next to the #4 spark plug. It is further from the compass than the flywheel but because it is much stronger will over power the influence of the weaker magnet.
I have worked with a compass a good bit. I have swung quite a few over the years in various airplanes and helicopters. It is extremely tiring that all of you post are such "look at me, how smart I am".
Well, Gary, if you think it helps, and gives you piece of mind, you are open to do as you please!
I heard if you string some Garlic, and hang it over your radiator neck, you can charge the magnets facing South, west!
I tried the in the car recharge on my 26 2 years ago. the magneto had shorted out through the ignition switch and was dead-dead-dead. I could not get any motion of a compass needle on the hogshead with turning the engine over slowly. I ended up removing the engine after the ignition switch was fixed, replacing the magneto, and charging each magnet individually. I don't know if it was the hogshead insulating the compass from the magnetic pull, but I know I couldn't use a compass to get the right position. BTW, the car was in the garage pointing South
Again, you post more drivel in an attacking mode. I guess if you have no technical explanation you might as well. I am glad I have your approval to do as I please. I was wondering how I would ever sleep tonight lacking such.
I was recently given a 36V battery charger for a scissor lift. Has anyone tried using something like this with any success?
Well, I don't post for Hard Hats, I post for the new guys that don't know, and would believe fancies!
I wish I could forward some of the posts I have gotten on this!
I got my point across, every man for him self!
Whether it is (1) 36V, (3) 12V, or (6) 6V, I think so long as you have 36V, the source is inconsequential.
Herm is right. we can all do whatever we feel is right for us, so if I ever need to do this procedure again, I will certainly face my engine in an east, west alignment, for I am convinced by, not only my own experience, but by the experiences of dozens of well respected members who, for many years, have advised that, aligning the engine from east to west, is the correct way to begin this procedure.
Just because Dykes and the Ford Service Manual neglected to mention it, does not make it not so. There are plenty of things we talk about on this forum that we have discovered through our billions of cumulative man hours working on the T that they never thought of mentioning in their 1920's publications. Jim Patrick
It also don't have to be 36v. I've used my 48v golf cart successfully on the last 2 T's I recharged--1 in the car and 1 out.
Jeff, It's not just the voltage. The battery chargers will not put out enough amperage to do a good magnet charge.
I read once that magnets could be recharged with a welder. Does any one remember the current and voltage required? Welders I've got... batteries a little scarce.
I heard the same thing, and was told it worked better with an AC welder,
would like to have more information on it,
I have a small 70 amp AC welder that is not good for anything thicker than tinfoil,...would it work???
output is about 12v 70 amp max
You need a DC welder to recharge the magnets.
I would guess an AC welder would charge them (+) for 1/60 second, and (-) for 1/60 second. the charge would depend on when you disconnected from the circuit. Just guessing, mind you, I only pretend to be an electrician on weekends doing "honey-do's".
Thanks guys,
I know about the DC current vs current
but I saw an article about AC somewhere
it claimed a better charge,not sure how
I found this http://www.nwo-modelt.org/T-2007MAR.html
but it us not what I was looking for
anyone seen it?
You are correct Noel. It only takes about .004 seconds to charge the magnets when using the mag ring and 1/60 of a second is longer than that so it would indeed end up being whatever polarity was on the mag ring when you disconnected the AC source. Normally one uses an AC source to DEMAGNETIZE a magnet.
I used 18V to recharge my son's magneto while it was on the car. Old batteries used during T era were not capable of the very high peak currents of modern batteries. Using 36 volts is about 6 times more juice than you need since modern batteries are capable of some really high peak currents. The magneto ring typically is 1/4 Ohm of resistance so you are then looking at 36/.25 = 144 amps - way overkill and dangerous to the health of your mag ring. 48V is even worse. Welders represent a total unknown with regard to actual voltage or current regardless of what the label on the welder says its maximum is. Why do you guys always go higher and higher on voltage when you do stuff? Why do you always think "more is better"??? I successfully charged a dead magneto back to life with 18V batteries (6V in the T with an additional modern 12V jumpered in series). The multiple striking does nothing additional other than heat the mag ring more and more. Give your T a chance to survive the event and start with a lower voltage.
Do not attempt an in-the-car recharge of the magnets unless you have absolutely nothing to lose by trying it. If you think it might spruce up the performance of a car that runs on magneto - you might be sorry you tried it. Many people have had that sad experience.
would a 12 v truck (tractor) battery be better ?
it would provide ample current,
this is why I asked about a welder, it's output it only about 12 v but high amperage,
now I know about DC vs AC current and polarity
(I saw an article about useing a welder, not sure of they built a rectifier or how it was used)
my question us voltage and amperage needed????
min and max
Open circuit voltage on a DC welder is in the range of 70 volts.
Under load that will drop to somewhere between 17-40 volts.
The main thing is there is plenty of current available.
Bearing that in mind a series of QUICK jolts to the coils is the way to go.
You wouldn't want to turn the tiny peg that "sticks" the coil assembly into a welding rod....... YIKES.......
The source of the east-west reference is Murray Fahnstock. It appeared in Ford Owner in February 1924. If you have the book Model T Ford Owner it is on page 238.
He writes, "When checking up the position of the magnets on the flywheel by means of a compass, it is preferable to have the car headed east or west - either direction being equally good. The magnets are usually so powerful (notice he uses usually and not always) that the influence of the earth's magnetisim is relatively unimportant. Though the cast iron transmission covers now used on Fords make it a little difficult to obtain accurate magnetic readings and every assistance is needed."
My initial post was intended to be helpful. My follow up posts dropping to Herm's level were not helpful and I won't allow myself to be drawn into the mud again. My apologies to the forum.
I have been accessing this forum for over a decade and have read countess threads accompanied and drawings on this procedure and they have ALL recommended 36 volts and now, for the first time, we are being told that that 36 volts is too much and that multiple strikes are unnecessary? All I know is I, along with probably hundreds of others over the years, used (3) 12v batteries (36 volts), with multiple strikes at the (4) 90 degree positions and it worked like charm, for me and my magneto, without getting it hot.
One maddening thing about this forum is that, after so many years of being advised by so many respected members of a pretty much universally accepted way of doing a procedure, reinforced by period literature and diagrams, the rules suddenly change and the accepted way is now wrong and even dangerous. All this does is create confusion among those who no longer know who to believe, because as far as I'm concerned, John Regan, to me, is one of the most respected Model T guys on the planet and whatever he says is pretty much gospel! Jim Patrick
PS. After reading this I know many of you are thinking. "Well, Jim, if you don't like it you don't have to log on" and you are right, but no matter what, I will always love the forum and communicating with all of the members here whether we disagree or not.

Even the worst Mag. that needed charging, we could always tell where the polls were, but then I have never tried to find the poles with a compass that was gotten out of a Cracker-Jack Box!
You're showing your age Herm. Those kind of neat prizes have not been available in Cracker Jacks for over 40 years, however, they are still available in gumball machines, if you're lucky. LOL

The Odin Project
About Odin
Odin is the name of the project and software that allows users to run Win32 applications in eComStation (OS/2) operating system natively, almost as if they were intended to be OS/2 applications in the first place. It also makes porting from Win32 to OS/2 easier by providing a Win32 API implementation in OS/2: the Odin32 API.
Binary compatibility is achieved by converting Windows EXE and DLL files (applications are made of those) into the format that OS/2 uses. Conversion can be permanent, or it can be done transparently at runtime, when an application is started. Conversion and loading of Win32 programs, basicaly, consists of:
- Converting PE (Portable Executable - Win32 binaries) objects in OS/2's LX (Linear eXecutable) format.
- Reassembling them in memory in the way OS/2 applications are supposed to be assembled.
The program that will permanently convert binaries (EXE and DLL files) is called PE2LX.EXE. However, it's much more flexible to use dynamic, on-the-fly conversion (via PE.EXE loader) because in that case executable modules on disk are not changed, and you can use your Win32 programs in both Windows and eCS (OS/2) from the same space on disk. Both methods can be automated and made absolutely transparent to users with the use of the WIN32K.SYS driver that allows OS/2 processes (WPS, command prompt...) to launch Win32 binaries as any other OS/2 applications, providing automatic conversion/loading at startup time. NOTE: The WIN32K.SYS approach is not building anymore with Odin 0.8 and up. WIN32K.SYS from prior to 0.8 seem to work at this time (0.8.5)
Converted/loaded program will look and behave as any other eCS (OS/2) application. There is no emulation layer, no Windows "sessions" or virtual machines like it was the case with Win-OS/2 that IBM has provided for running Windows 3.1 applications: the code is executed directly by CPU with all rights, privileges and limitations of normal 32-bit eCS (OS/2) programs. In order for program to operate, it must have access to the same API functions as in Windows operating system(s). Those functions are called Win32 API (Application Programming Interface) and Odin provides them, as well. It's the second part of the project which aims at: Providing runtime libraries that replicate Win32 API functions and that are used by loaded and running programs. Runtime libraries are supplied as a number of DLL files with the same names as the ones what are supplied with Windows because Win32 applications expect to find them under those names. Any name conflicts (DLLs with same names shipped with eCS (OS/2)) are resolved during the conversion/loading process. Odin32 DLLs are pure native eCS (OS/2) binaries which operate in the same way as their Windows counterparts. The set of API functions that are implemented for Project Odin is called Odin32.
The Odin32 API can also be used (and is used) for native eCS (OS/2) development, as for porting software from Windows. Since it replicates the functionality of the Win32 API closely, a porter can much easier match the basic functionality and then add eCS (OS/2) specific improvements.
A very good example of an application which is using this technology is OpenJDK6 for OS/2. It is compiled using Odin32 API and eCS (OS/2) specific behavior was added as well.
The final goal of the first part of the project is to make every Windows program load and operate properly, and the goal of the second part of the project is to create complete eCS (OS/2) implementation of Win32 API, which means that every single API function should be implemented or mapped to equivalent eCS (OS/2) API function via Odin32. Whether those goals will be ever achieved remains to be seen, but this project gives good results even now, since no Windows program uses all API functions and very few use even majority of them.
Latest Version
The latest version is 0.8.8 released on 31.12.2012. The list of changes can be found in the ChangeLog file.
Starting from version 0.7.1, the primary way to distribute and install official builds of Odin is RPM. This means that all Odin components are provided as RPM packages which may be installed from either the netlabs RPM repositories using the YUM command or directly using the RPM command (the GUI frontend is on the way). In order to install RPM packages on your machine, you need to install the RPM bootstrap package (once) which contains the RPM installer. The installation of RPM is described here in detail. Once you have RPM installed, you may issue one of following commands to install various parts of Odin:
|yum install libodin
|Installs the basic Odin runtime needed for Odin-based and Odin-ized applications
|yum install odin-doc
|Installs the Odin user's manual
|yum list *odin*
|Lists all available Odin packages with short desctiptions
|yum update libodin
|Updates an already installed Odin to the latest version
Note that the first command is not normally needed -- if you install an Odin-based application from the RPM repository, it will install all required Odin components automatically. This command is only necessary if you have an Odin-based application distributed as a ZIP archive or in some other (non-RPM) form.
We also provide a Zip package of Odin (see below) for your convenience, if you cannot use RPM for some reason. Older ZIP and WPI packages are available here.
A small note on the OdinApp Package: This package is only needed for Win32 apps not built with the Odin SDK. We provide a Zip package of it (see below) for your convenience.
This is a list of prerequisites for the Odin ZIP packages. Note that if you use the RPM packages, these prerequisites, except xsystray, will be installed automatically. Xsystray are not in RPM repositories yet so you will need to install them from WPI in either case.
|kLIBC 0.6.5 Runtime Library
|kLIBC runtime libraries needed for all Odin installations (required).
|GCC 4 Runtime Libraries
|GCC 4 runtime libraries needed for all Odin installations (required).
|xsystray widget
|Extended system tray widget for xCenter/eCenter for system tray support In Odin (optional).
Odin ZIP Packages
|Odin Runtime Libraries
|Odin runtime necessary to run Win32 based applications.
|OdinApp Package
|The OdinApp package is only needed for Win32 apps not built with the Odin SDK.
Wiki & Mailinglist
There is a (rather outdated) page in the netlabs.org Wiki about Odin, feel free to contribute to it! Also we have a mailing list at netlabs.org, you can read it at gmane.org, or you can subscribe by mail. The name of the list is odin-user@….
Reporting Bugs
Reporting bugs and requesting new features is done through the ticket system. You can view existing tickets, add comments to them and create new tickets using the corresponding buttons at the top of every page. If you want to submit a new bug or request a feature, please use the Search function first to make sure there is no ticket for this task already created.
We review the tickets regulary and leave comments if we need more info. So please revisit the Feedback analysis as often as possible. If we leave comment and don't get feedback from the ticket creator, we will close the ticket after some weeks.
Anonymous access to the ticket system has been restricted due to multiple attacks of stupid spammers we've been suffering from lately. In order to create a new ticket or comment the existing one, you need to login with your Netlabs login id.
If you do not have a login id, you can request one at http://www.netlabs.org/en/site/member/member.xml.
We are sorry for inconvenience, but at the present time this is the only way to avoid extremely annoying spam.
About Trac&Subversion, code guidelines
To allow proper coding and usage of Trac&Subversion features, it is suggested to follow some guidelines.
First, all commits must belong to a ticket; tickets can be created by project manager or by developers for defect fixing, code enhancements or other tasks.
Tickets will be used to tell other people about problems, and allow discussion of patches or new code added. Subversion commits needs to link their ticket in commit message. This can be done using the following syntax:
svn commit -m "Here are my changes. ticket:1." *.*
Trac timeline will automagically convert 'ticket:1' into the URL of the ticket.
At the same time, the changeset number should be added to the ticket using the following syntax:
(changeset:145) Here are my changes.
This allows following ticket life without looking at timeline changes every time. While the commit message is usually short, developers can add more detailed informations in ticket record. Remember, other developers could not know what you are doing, or understand what has been changed simply looking at code.
Also we need to track changes to avoid regressions as much as possible: exhaustive descriptions makes life much easier when regressions or typos must be fixed.
Pulling the Odin repository
For the primary environment:
svn co http://svn.netlabs.org/repos/odin32/trunk Odin
To get it built you need the GCC 4.4.6 compiler, the OS/2 Toolkit 4.5 and the kBuild utility
The easiest way is to install GCC and kBuild from the RPM repository. The Toolkit isn't available as RPM right now

Police: Vehicle struck pedestrian, left victim lying in road in Foxborough
A 27-year-old Southwick man facing multiple charges after allegedly hitting a pedestrian and leaving the scene of the accident, Massachusetts State Police reported. The incident happened along the northbound lanes of Route 1 in Foxborough around 1 a.m.
Police were notified by a passing motorist about the pedestrian lying in the road. State Police noticed the man was in pain and rolling around on the ground. A description of the suspect vehicle was given, and a second officer discovered an Infinity sedan with a hole in the windshield and a broken side-view mirror.
Investigators said Daniel Lishness, 27, of Southwick had an odor of alcohol on his breath, was walking unsteady on his feet and slurring his words.
Lishness was transported to the State Police Barracks in Foxborough and charged with OUI Liquor 2nd offense, leaving the scene of personal injury, negligent operation of a motor vehicle and OUI liquor with serious injury and negligent operation. He was scheduled to appear in Wrentham District Court Tuesday.
The victim, a 30-year-old from Boston, was reported to have a broken leg with cuts and bruises.

Microsoft Word Auto Correct
i use sublime for both code and prose.
i love microsoft word's auto correct feature, although it sucks as a general editor.
basically if you have been typing a lot you might develop carpal tunnel. and when writing documents or emails, microsoft's auto correct saves you from using the shift key to capitalize the first word and you dont have to type a lot of punctuation except commas and fullstops.
for example, if you type this in word
i dont have a lot to say about taht, but waht you said is ok.
you get
I don't have a lot to say about that, but what you said is ok.
it does a fine job of saving you from pressing the stressful keys and also correct a lot of common errors when you're typing fast.
you can also easily export the auto correction list from word
if this can be done in a package, it would be okay as well.

For those of you who want to root your AT&T(or Bell, Telus, Rogers) Galaxy Note SGH-i717, here's a "universal" method that will root any JellyBean, ICS and Gingerbread.
UPDATE: (8/12/2012) Users have confirmed this root method works fine on the new T-Mobile Galaxy Note SGH-T879!
This root method is completely safe, does not erase any of your personal settings/apps, and anyone can do it.
This method is using Windows only but I will have tutorial coming soon for Mac OSX and Linux (so please check back).
Step 1. You will need to first put your Galaxy Note into downloading mode, so go ahead and hold down Volume Down and Power button together for about 10 seconds.
Step 2. When your phone reset, keep holding down the Volume Down button but let go of the Power button. (You will feel a little vibration when your phone resets and your screen will turn black also.)
Step 3. Once you see the warning screen like below, hit the Volume Up button to enter Downloading mode.
Step 4. Connect a micro-USB cable from your phone to your Windows computer.
Step 5. Make sure your phone shows up as "Samsung Mobile USB CDC Composite Device" under Device Manager. If not, simply install Samsung Kies and you will see it.
Step 6. Download ATTGalaxyNoteRootICS.zip and unzip into a folder. (Don't have unzipping program? Download and install 7Zip first.)
You will find 4 files. Run odin3v1.85.exe file by double-clicking on it.

Step 7. Next, you should see the ODIN program come up with a yellow highlighted COM. If you do, you are ready to go.
Step 8. Choose PDA and choose the file "odin_ni717_cwm_recovery_b4.tar".
Step 9. Hit "Start" and this will flash ClockworkMod Recovery on your Galaxy Note.
Step 10. Reboot your phone and copy over the file Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip to the internal storage or SD card of your Galaxy Note.
Step 11. You will now reboot into ClockworkMod Recovery. Hold down Volume Up, Volume Down, and Power button together for about 10 seconds.
Step 12. When your phone resets (you will feel little vibration and the screen will turn off), keep holding down the Volume Down button but let go of the Power button.
Step 13. Once in ClockworkMod Recovery, choose "install zip from sdcard" using the Volume buttons and hit the Power button to select.
Step 14. Choose "choose zip from sdcard" or "choose zip from internal sdcard" depending on where you copied over the Superuser zip file earlier.
Step 15. Choose "Superuser-3.0.7-efghi-signed.zip".
Step 16. Choose "Yes".
Step 17. This will root your phone by installing SU binaries (which gives you root) and SuperUser app (which allows apps to make use of root). If you get any errors at this point, don't worry about it and repeat Steps 13 to Step 16 twice more and reboot. You will still get root.
Step 18. Reboot and you should find that your Galaxy Note SGH-i717 has been rooted with SuperUser app.
Congratulations! That was easy right? Not everyone can jailbreak an iPhone but anyone can root a Galaxy Note.
Having problems?
With Android 4.0.4 update, your phone might overwrite the ClockworkMod Recovery you flashed in ODIN.
To get around the problem, simply flash ClockworkMod Recovery again in ODIN, then when you see "PASS!", immediately hold down Volume Up and Volume Down buttons, you should be in ClockworkMod Recovery instead of the Belly-up Andy Android figure.

A tour of the Peoria Sports Complex
Most fans don't get the chance to visit Arizona and get the up close season preview that Spring Training provides. With that in mind, today we've decided to give you a brief tour of the Peoria Sports Complex. Hopefully this will give you a glimpse of where the Pads spend their days, preparing for the 2012 campaign. What more could you want? Right? Right!
Worst case scenario, at least we'll provide plenty of content for Bad Spring Training Twit Pics. (If you don't tweet them, do they still count?)
With that in mind, here goes nothing…
Welcome to the Peoria Sports Complex. Located in beautiful Peoria, Ariz., down the street from Chick-fil-A, behind the Target and adjacent to the Salty Senorita. Flip through the slideshow below and use the map at the bottom for reference as you make your way from the player parking lot, through the clubhouse, to the weight room, out to the fields and finally back to the cafeteria for lunch. The players typically arrive around 6:30 or 7:00 each morning, squeezing in a morning workout in the weight room before a 9:00 team meeting followed by workouts on the field until noon.
5 Comments
Great look at behind the scences! Thanks–wish I could make it to Spring training.
Going there in 2 weeks, it will be out 10th time in 11 years!
Great pics been going for years but never saw the behind scenes. Can't wait to get there and season to start.
We went last year, It was great, nice to see behind the scenes. Used to go to Yuma all the time (shorter drive)
It's a beautiful complex. It's on my bucket list.

Director Todd Phillips has boldly proclaimed that "The Hangover Part II" will be regarded in much the same way as "The Godfather Part II," that rare sequel that was even better than its legendary predecessor. You can feel this film straining for those glorious heights, and while it falls short, it's still pretty funny.
Having learned his lesson from the last bachelor party, Stu (Ed Helms) announces to Doug (Justin Bartha) and Phil (Bradley Cooper) over pancakes at IHOP—there will be no shenanigans in the days leading up to his wedding in Thailand and there is no way that Alan (Zach Galifianakis) is invited. At the risk of spoiling the film for you, Alan ends up getting invited and there is a bachelor party that makes 2009's bacchanal look like a tea party.
Structurally, the film is nearly identical to the original—the Wolf Pack is back together, there are stand-ins for the Heather Graham character, the baby, Stu's missing tooth, Mike Tyson's tiger…The set-ups still work, the jokes are still funny, but it feels so familiar that you can't just give yourself over to it if you've seen the first film. It's kind of like reading a Michael Chabon novel—as much as you may be enjoying it, too much of your brainspace is wasted trying to guess which character is going to turn out to be a closeted homosexual.
U.S. & World
And while nearly every set-up has a direct corollary from the original, the guys in the Wolf Pack respond as though nothing like this has ever happened to any of them before. Look, there's no doubt that getting waking up facedown in a strange hotel room is disorienting, but if you've done it once, you'd think you'd bring a certain level of cool to dealing it with it the second time around.
Other than geography, the biggest changes to the "hangover" recipe are an increase of face time for Zach Galifianakis and Ken Jeong, with only the latter serving to benefit the film. Galifianakis is something of a savant, but his flavor of comedy is at its best when it's on the fringes of the frame—not in the middle. Jeong, however, makes the most of Mr. Chow's increased presence, making his "Hangover I" turn seem tame by comparison. He's naked, he's coked up, he's recklessly dangerous, completely out of his mind—it's amazing to watch.
Contrary to Phillips' proclamation, "The Hangover Part II" offers more of everything except laughs (and poor Justin Bartha), but it still delivers enough to make you wonder whether or not Alan gets married in 2013.

The nice part of a summer birthday is you generally get to celebrate several of them! Since many people are vacationing over the summer, getting all the friends and family together for a large birthday party is difficult, so we enjoy several of the smaller varieties.
We had a good time up at Charleen's and Micheal's house. It was warm outside, but we were able to welcome back Ben and Hope to Minnesota and have some birthday cake for Sylvia as well.
As for July 12th... Sylvia's actual birthday, she enjoyed a great day at school including "bike day", "treat day", and mom and dad both picking her up. She got to pick what she wanted for dinner - shrimp on the grill. And of course, got to open some more presents.
So that concludes Sylvia's 2013 birthday celebrations. Now mom and dad just need to get all the thank yous sent out!

Warren Throckmorton watched a couple of prominent advocates of gay reversion/reparation therapy go on TV with Dr. Oz and lie about what that therapy entails and what their views are on homosexuality. They're trying to portray these "pray away the gay" ideas as kind and loving, not hateful and destructive.
For example, they denied that this kind of therapy tells gay people that there's something wrong with them. As Throckmorton points out, as the 2:45 point of this video clip, a gay rights activist says, correctly, that reversion therapy inherently implies that there's something wrong with gay people that they have to fix to be healthy and "normal." Julie Hamilton, a proponent of that therapy, says she agrees and then says:
Reparative therapy does not tell children that there is something wrong with them.
But her writings are full of such proclamations, saying that men are turned gay because they don't have a close relationship with their fathers and such. And she has edited a book on such therapy that includes statements like this, from anti-gay bigot Joseph Nicolosi:
The homosexually oriented man typically carries a deep sense of shame for his strivings to make a connection with the masculine. On some level, he believes he is defective, insignificant, and depleted in his masculinity. Homosexual acting-out seems to promise reparation of those negative feelings, i.e., attention, admiration, and masculine reassurance, adding with it the reassurance that he truly does possess a worthy male body.
I think it's great that Throckmorton, who at one time helped advocate this sort of thing (though never in favor of forcing anyone into it), has over the last couple years started to call out these people for their distortions.

SPX Shares Slump on Talks With Gardner Denver
SPX has been pretty open about plans to ramp up its flow business, but that doesn't mean shareholders are embracing a Wall Street Journal report that says the company is in talks to merge with industrial-pumps maker Gardner Denver.
Credit Suisse reckons a deal could see SPX offer $80 a share in cash and stock and move up gross debt to 3.9 times EBITDA, well above a target range of 1.5 to 2.5 times.
WSJ reported that SPX has so far outbid several private-equity firms, which are currently waiting on the sidelines to see if SPX and Gardner Denver can strike a deal. The offers from private-equity firms were in the low- to mid-$70s per share in cash, whereas SPX has offered several dollars more per share, likely through a mix of cash and stock, WSJ reported, citing people familiar with the matter. Both companies have nearly identical market capitalizations of around $3.4 billion, necessitating the exchange of stock for a merger.
Meanwhile, "any major capital returns to shareholders [a key tenet of the SPX investment thesis] would likely be on hold," Credit Suisse said, sticking with its neutral rating.

Falling for Bainbridge
Get a taste of Puget Sound in a 30-hour escape. We've planned a leisurely itinerary for you―with coffee breaks, of course.
Imagine yourself on a ferryboat deck with a latte in one hand, your overnight bag at your feet, and the dazzling Seattle skyline filling the horizon behind you. While the boat churns across Elliott Bay, the Space Needle disappears from view and a shoreline materializes in the distance.
You're bound for Bainbridge Island―an antidote to Seattle's big-city bustle and an introduction to Puget Sound island life. Here's how to make the most of a 30-hour visit.
9:35 a.m. Skip the commuter rush and take a midmorning ferry from Seattle. The 35-minute ride stops near Winslow, the downtown shopping district, a five-minute walk from the ferry terminal. Have a look around; you'll get the chance to shop tomorrow. Drop your bags at your hotel (see our recommendations under "10 p.m."). Now, it's time to explore. Although Bainbridge isn't large, you'll need a car, taxi, or bike to reach many areas.
10:30 a.m. In Winslow, you'll find a coffeehouse on every block. Pegasus Coffee House and Gallery serves beverages made from locally roasted beans in a vine-covered waterfront building, while Andante Coffee and Bainbridge Bakers attract loyal followings. Enjoy a cup of joe, then grab some take-out stir-fry from Teriyaki Town or a sandwich from Real Foods Market and Cafe.
12 p.m. Spend your afternoon discovering the island's beauty in pristine woods, state parks, and waterfront. Once a private estate owned by a timber magnate, Bloedel Reserve is now a 150-acre sanctuary of trees, wildlife, ponds, and gardens. Open by appointment, the park's paths meander past majestic Douglas firs, hemlocks, and cedars. Elsewhere on the island, try IslandWood, a 255-acre outdoor learning center, which offers three-hour walking tours of its breathtaking property.
If you still have time, take a boat tour. Back of Beyond Explorations and Exotic Aquatics Scuba & Kayaking both rent kayaks. Prefer pedaling to paddling? Rent a bike from Classic Cycle, which operates from the barn near the ferry terminal in the summer. Or explore by car. The coastal route along the island's south end borders stop-and-stare views and the chance to watch the Bremerton-Seattle ferry travel through Rich Passage.
6 p.m. When it's time for dinner, choose from one of Bainbridge's fine-dining restaurants: Edna's Beach Café, Madoka Pan-Pacific Restaurant, Café Nola, and The Four Swallows. Doc's Marina Grill, along the waterfront, serves some of the best fish-and-chips on Puget Sound. Sawatdy Thai Cuisine's dishes stand out despite its location next to a gas station.
7:30 p.m. While several restaurants offer live music, The Harbour Public House and The Living Room, a wine bar, are the island's best adults-only venues. On the first Saturday of each month, The Edge improv troupe grabs the local playhouse stage. Or catch independent films at The Historic Lynwood Theatre, a 1936 movie house on the island's south end. If you haven't already eaten, make a pre-showtime stop at nearby Treehouse Café for the island's best thin-crust pizza.
10 p.m. There's more to see and do tomorrow, so head back to your hotel for some shut-eye: The Eagle Harbor Inn wins praise as Winslow's premier accommodations, with four well-appointed rooms and three luxurious townhomes. Island Country Inn provides traditional motel amenities, and more than a dozen B&Bs and rental homes dot the island. Two of the most exquisite: Waterfall Gardens, a 5-acre retreat with spring-fed ponds, waterfalls, and gardens, and Skiff Point Guest House, with a 180-degree view of Puget Sound.
9 a.m. Wake up with traditional morning fare at Richie's 305 Diner or Streamliner Diner. For a lighter option, try Blackbird Bakery. You won't find toast on the bakery's chalkboard menu, but order it anyway. When the thick-cut wheat slices and jam arrive at your table, you'll be glad you did.
10 a.m. There's still time to explore Winslow's compact commercial district, which offers everything from a top-notch travel store to a distinctive candle shop. At Eagle Harbor Book Co., browse titles by some of the island's almost 200 published authors, such as David Guterson, who penned Snow Falling on Cedars. A few doors down, Bainbridge Arts & Crafts represents hundreds of regional artists. Clothes shopping is an upscale affair―the numerous boutiques include Adam & Eve Clothing Company, which carries more than 100 styles of jeans. When you've had your fill of browsing, get a bite to eat. Then indulge your sweet tooth at either Mora Iced Creamery or Bon Bon Confections.
1 p.m. Before the sun sets on your visit, stop at the Bainbridge Island Historical Society & Museum to uncover a history tied to shipbuilding, strawberry farming, and Japanese internment during World War II. Or stroll the boardwalk that leads from Eagle Harbor to the ferry terminal.
2:55 p.m. Board the ferry, and depart Bainbridge relaxed. Now that you've had a glimpse of island life, Puget style, we know you'll be back.
Bainbridge: Why go now?
Think Puget Sound and you think green. But from late September through October, maple, native alder, and white birch trees splash a rainbow of colors onto the island's evergreen canvas. No matter when you come, expect some rain.
Before You Go: Make an appointment to explore Bloedel Reserve, 206/842-7631. And book hotel accommodations: The Eagle Harbor Inn, 206/842-1446; Island Country Inn, 800/842-8429; Waterfall Gardens Private Suites, 206/842-1434; Skiff Point Guest House, 206/842-7026.

Lisa Jacobs' carbon Apollo Bikes Arctec CX disc as ridden in China. © Cyclocross Magazine
Editor's Note: This article is from our mud-loving friends at Cyclocross Magazine and originally appeared on cxmagazine.com. It was written by Daniel Curtin. Visit them for your daily cyclocross fix.
Lisa Jacobs (VIS) became Australia's first Women's National Cyclocross Champion in August.
But it wasn't until September, at the first-ever UCI cyclocross race in China, that we got a closer look at Jacobs' unique Apollo Bicycles' carbon Arctec CX that she propelled to victory in Australia at the 2013 National Championships and 14th in China.
Take one look at the top tube and seatstays and you'll see it's a unique frame design. The frame features GT-like seatstays that meet the top tube in front of the seat tube, but without the "Triple Triangle" that GT creates by continuing the top tube all the way to the seat tube. It's not the first time we've seen a national champion race with such long seatstays, as the McCormack brothers of Saturn won plenty of races on their steel GT bikes (seen here), but it might be the first on a carbon frame.
Jacobs actually got the Arctec CX just in time for the Australian Nationals, after having ridden Apollo's $1599 (AUS) SRAM Apex-equipped aluminum Xact through the 2012 and 2013 seasons. In fact, Jacobs powered the Xact to the 2012 Australian Cyclocross Series Championship before sitting down with Apollo to develop the Arctec CX.
The Arctec CX is now featured in Apollo's lineup, but the bike Jacobs rode at Nationals was none other than a prototype, shipped directly from its trade show debut. With help of a Victoria Institute of Sport mechanic and the local Apollo dealer, the bike was ready to race.
The first thing one notices is the unique shape of the frame, made from hi-modulus multi-weave Torayca carbon from Toray.
Perhaps a visual marker, perhaps a design feature, the Apollo Arctec CX top tube/seat tube/seatstay juncture is undoubtedly unique. © Cyclocross Magazine
The frame's unique design leverages what Apollo Bicycles calls a S.L.I.M. Monostay, which the company claims " vertical flex that dampens the vibrations coming up through the frame." It's quite thin, but does form a solid joint by the seat tube, unlike the Trek Domane, where the seat tube is isolated from the seatstays. The company also claims its longer tubing (compared to compact frames) "allows bumps and road vibrations to be soaked up along the length of that tube."
Speaking of bump absorption, Jacobs has some custom-colored FMB 33mm SSC tubulars to show off her Australian Championship stripes and give her bike a unique look (in case that unique top tube isn't enough).

Jacobs' prototype still has the holes to insert cantilever bosses on the fork and seatstays, but Apollo is not trying to compete with Lapierre, Pivot or Redline on frames that can accept disc or cantilever brakes. Production models are disc brake only.
SRAM Rival cranks are standard on the Arctec CX, but Jacobs opted to run a 42t single front ring over the stock configuration, eliminating a front derailleur. Her stealth, black single ring is without markings but is a wide-narrow tooth ring, similar to XX1 and designs by Wolf Tooth and Absolute Black, used with the goal of avoiding a derailed chain without needing a chain guard or dual ring guards.
A SRAM X9 Type 2, clutch-equipped rear derailleur was chosen over a standard road mechanism and easily accommodates the wide range 10-speed cassette. It's a setup that's growing in popularity. We've tested a similar setup on the 2013 Marin Cortina reviewed in Issue 19, and found it effective to reduce chain slap, and SRAM-equipped racer Ryan Trebon has been spotted with a prototype SRAM 11-speed single ring group that also employs a clutch-equipped (Type 2) rear derailleur.
Jacobs' bike has a specific parts selection compared to the stock offering, including the SRAM X9 type 2 rear derailleur. © Cyclocross Magazine
Controls and braking come from 10-speed Force-level SRAM S700 hydraulic shifters mated to SRAM S-700 brakes. Hope Pro2 EVO hubs match up nicely to HED Belgium C2 rims.
Shimano's pre-XTR M959 SPD pedals handle the power transfer.
Jacobs samples cockpit components from all of Easton's aluminum line-up, choosing an Easton EA50 seatpost, EA90 stem and EA70 handlebars finish off the build.
As her bike sponsor tells it, Jacobs had previously focused on a road career, but the demands of her career as a practicing lawyer meant shifting race priorities to cyclocross. It seems safe to say that with a National Championship in hand, Jacobs' move was a good one.

Recommended Video:
MONTREAL (AP) -- Ryan Callahan ended New York's four-year-old goal drought in Montreal and rookie Cam Talbot made 22 saves for his first NHL shutout and the Rangers blanked the Canadiens 1-0 on Saturday night.
Callahan scored his sixth goal of the season for New York, which has won eight of its past 11 games.
Talbot, who replaced Martin Biron as the backup goalie, became the first Rangers goalie to earn a shutout in Montreal since Ed Giacomin in a 5-0 win on Feb. 25, 1967.
The Rangers outshot Montreal 34-22.
The Canadiens were coming off a 3-2 shootout win in Columbus on Friday night and spent most of the game a step behind the Rangers, who played the first of back-to-back games before playing Los Angeles at home on Sunday.
Callahan broke the Rangers' Bell Centre drought just as a two-man advantage ended as he tipped Brad Richard's blast from the left circle past Carey Price 5:25 into the second period.
The Canadiens went into the game with four straight shutouts against New York, including a 2-0 win Oct. 28 with Peter Budaj in goal. Price had blanked the Rangers the past four times he faced them at the Bell Centre and lost at home to them for the first time in eight meetings.
Montreal was 7-0-1 at home against New York and had outscored them 25-3 since a 4-3 loss in March 2009.
The Rangers played Talbot largely because Henrik Lundqvist, who will play against Los Angeles, has struggled in Montreal.
Notes: The Rangers expect to have star forward Rick Nash back from a concussion either Tuesday against Boston or Thursday at Dallas. Michael Del Zotto and Brandon Mashinter didn't dress. ... Emelin, who injured a knee in April, made his season debut on defense for Montreal, bumping Douglas Murray. He played on the third pair with Francis Bouillon. Brendan Gallagher, who sat out Friday with the flu, was back but was used sparingly. Ryan White and George Parros were scratched.

March brings us Women's History Month, and this year's theme of education as the path to empowerment fits perfectly with some initiatives at the San Antonio Area Foundation.
Our Women & Girls Development Fund will announce its first grants at our Women, Wisdom, Wine luncheon program on Saturday, March 31, at the Grand Hyatt. The $50,000 in grants will go to nonprofit organizations with effective programs for women and girls in these important areas on which the Fund focuses:
- Health
- Education and Research
- Social/Human Services
"Obviously, these are areas that are challenging for our community, particularly for women and young girls," said Terry Brechtel, chair of the Women & Girls Development Fund Committee. "We are not trying to duplicate what is already being done, but to support nonprofits that are successful in our community, that already have programs that address these areas for women and girls."
The grants will support organizations working in such areas as reducing the city's high teen pregnancy rate, fostering leadership skills and education for women, and providing a wide range of social services.
It's not too late to apply for a grant. Deadline is March 15 and more details are available online at www.saafdn.org, on the "Women & Girls Development Fund Application" link on our homepage.
Keynote speaker at our March 31 event at the Grand Hyatt is Bal Arneson, known as the "Spice Goddess" on the Cooking Channel. She will share her inspiring story of the challenges she overcame as a single mother in India to achieve the success she enjoys today.
The event also will feature a poetry slam, or spoken-word poetry competition where San Antonio community leaders will pair up with young ladies from the Boys & Girls Club of San Antonio. You won't want to miss the performances by Priscilla Hill Ardoin, Rosabel Gabriel, Araceli Garcia, Judge Lisa Jarrett, Texas Sen. Leticia Van de Putte and Joanna Weidman.
Additional information on the Women, Wisdom, Wine program can be found at this link.

The downward trend in grain prices should be viewed as a gift for hedging feed prices. The volatility in grain is not going to go away this year or next.
Cheese markets have not been very exciting over the past month, with prices for both blocks and barrels remaining in the $1.70s range. Class III futures contracts through December have settled down considerably from their previous volatility. First-half 2012 contracts have virtually traded sideways while later contracts slowly creep higher.
Previous projections from some analysts for continued high milk prices due to high feed prices have fallen by the wayside. With milk supply and manufacturing sufficient to meet current demand, it appears cheese prices will remain in this range for some time. Increasing milk production is enough to satisfy school milk demand as well as fall manufactured product demand. Seasonally, this is the time when buyer interest is heavy. Orders for the end of the year are being placed, and inventory is dipped into to supplement fresh manufactured supply.
Buyers are not concerned over supply at the present time. Demand has improved with lower cheese prices, but it has not improved as much as was anticipated. Cow numbers continue to increase and are expected to increase further. The latest monthly dairy cow slaughter report showed the lowest slaughter since June 2008. Higher milk prices increase the desire to produce more milk despite higher feed prices.
Grain prices appear to have made a top and are trending lower as harvest approaches. USDA reduced corn production on its latest World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates (WASDE) report last week, to 12.497 billion bushels. Despite expected production being down significantly from earlier estimates, the current expectation is still 50 million bushels higher than last year. It certainly was a good thing more acres were planted this year.
Soybean production was raised 29 million bushels to 3.085 billion bushels. However, this number is 244 million bushels lower than last year. This report has not been enough to stop the current liquidation phase taking place in grain futures.
The lower trend in grain prices needs to be watched closely for an opportunity to hedge feed prices, either through a forward contract or with call options or call option spreads. The balance sheet for supply and demand for grain is tight. The current trend lower in grain prices should be viewed as a gift and opportunity. Purchase $7.00 March corn call options and sell $7.70 call options for a spread price of 25 cents. If prices fall further, scale in and purchase more feed coverage with the same strategy at lower strike prices. The volatility in grain is not going to go away this year as well as next year.
USDA did not change its price outlook for milk and dairy product prices for 2012 on the WASDE report released last week. The All-Milk price range remained at $17.80 to $18.80. The cheese price is estimated to range from $1.67 to $1.77, with butter in the range of $1.6150 to $1.7450. Of course, this can change significantly, but right now Class III futures are in line with expected prices. The best strategy for now is to focus on protecting feed and to see how dairy prices react as the calendar moves toward the holidays.

- August Cold Storage report on Sept. 22
- August Livestock Slaughter on Sept. 23
- Advanced Class I price on Sept. 23
- Commercial disappearance on Sept. 27

A piece of legislation that would have banned food trucks from parking near schools was dropped by Assembly Member Bill Monnings.
While it was initially aimed at helping keep school children from unhealthy foods it could have been viewed as a threat to the popular food truck industry in California.
The now-defunct legislation AB 1678, introduced into the California State Legislature on Feb. 14, would have restricted "mobile foot and beverage vending" near schools while in session.
To be exact – food trucks could not sell within 1,500 feet of schools from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Bill authors argued that mobile food vending "diminishes participation in the school nutrition programs" and "increases students' access to foods and beverages that are calorie rich, nutrient poor and contribute to negative health outcomes like being overweight and obesity."
Not true, argues Dyann Manning, Executive Chef for Devilicious, just one of the many food trucks that operate around San Diego County.
"If we were to ban food trucks from a 1500-foot radius of elementary or secondary school then should we not also shut down all fast food restaurants and convenience stores within those same parameters?" Manning said adding that most food trucks offer handmade, preservative-free street food.
Word spread through the industry and among food truck fans, and it seems the outrage worked. The bill didn't obtain enough votes.

WARNER ROBINS -- With the potential of automatic cuts still looming, the Air Force has ordered a civilian hiring freeze.
A memorandum sent to senior commanders Wednesday directed a halt to all civilian hiring, according to an Air Force release. How that will impact Robins Air Force Base is still uncertain, said Tech Sgt. Robert Lipham, the base spokesman.
The Air Force statement said the action is being taken to "pursue reversible and recoverable steps" in the event automatic cuts or other budget cuts are implemented.
The automatic cuts would go into effect March 1 unless Congress and President Barack Obama reach an alternative agreement.
The freeze applies to all positions open to those outside the Air Force, including temporary jobs. Promotions and reassignments within the Air Force will not be impacted, the release stated.
Lt. Gen. Darrell Jones, the Air Force's deputy chief of staff for manpower, personnel and services, issued the memo informing commanders of the freeze. Hiring actions can continue if a selection has been made, but if not, all current external job announcements must be withdrawn.
Additionally, commanders were directed to release temporary employees immediately.
"These are uncharted waters concerning the federal budget and the effect it will have on the Air Force," Jones said in the memo, according to the release. "It is imperative we work closely together to balance the mission needs and minimize impacts to our dedicated civilian employees and their families."
If an agreement to avoid the automatic cuts isn't reached, $1.2 trillion in cuts spread over 10 years would trigger on March 1. About $500 billion of that would come from military funding. The cuts, part of the Budget Control Act of 2011, were supposed to take place Jan. 2, but Congress and President Obama agreed to a postponement.
Retired Maj. Gen. Robert McMahon, former commander of the Warner Robins Air Logistics Center, wrote in an e-mail the hiring freeze "only scratches the surface" of what could come if an agreement isn't reached to stop the automatic cuts, commonly referred to as sequestration.
"The civilian hiring freeze at Robins Air Force Base is symptomatic of a much larger impact if Congress and the President fail to act before March 2," wrote McMahon, who now serves as president of the 21st Century Partnership, a community group that works to support the base. "As a defense community it is critical that we demand Washington address the effects they themselves would create through sequestration and any extension of the continuing resolution. This hiring freeze only scratches the surface of what Middle Georgia will see if action is not taken by Congress and the President."

I watched the Senate "debate" tonight between Ron Johnson and incumbent Russ Feingold.
Like the governor's "debate," a couple of weeks back, this was not a debate like one we might have witnessed or participated in in school.
Again the candidates were asked questions and responded to them.
Also as in the governor's debate, the Democrat trails the Republican in most polls and came out swinging.
As in the governor's debate, the Republican didn't make any mistakes and nothing that was not already known came out. Consequently, as in the governor's debate, there will be no change in the polls.

Carson man arrested on suspicion of felony possession of stolen property
A 30-year-old Carson City man was arrested Thursday on suspicion of felony possession of stolen property and felony possession of a controlled substance.
According to the man's arrest report:
A deputy with the Special Enforcement Team was conducting a business check at a Dotty's on East William Street shortly before 9 p.m. He saw a young-looking man and asked if he had any identification. The man, Jeffery Christopher Haugen, said he didn't have it and didn't know his Social Security number.
The deputy thought Haugen might flee and put him in handcuffs, and dispatchers advised the deputy about the warrants.
Haugen acknowledged having "some stuff" in his right front pocket, and the deputy found 15 balloons of suspected heroin in a cigarette wrapper, as well as a bag containing several pieces of jewelry.
At the Carson City Jail, a deputy found $1,120 in Haugen's breast pocket. The arresting deputy learned that another deputy was with the victims of a burglary.
He took a photo of the jewelry from Haugen's pocket, and the victims identified it as theirs.
Haugen was arrested at 8:51 p.m. on the felony counts, as well as on two contempt-of-court warrants. Total bail was set at $9,200.
