Winnipeg Free Press - ONLINE EDITION
Isles defeat Jets 3-2 in OT
No one wants to bust up the feel-good thing the Winnipeg Jets have got going on right now. That would be like peeing in the punch bowl and popping the party balloons.
So, the spin late Tuesday night out of the Jets dressing room — not long after a 3-2 OT loss to an under-manned New York Islanders squad — was all about a late rally to grab a critical point.
As for the point lost against a team that had lost four of its last five and was missing John Tavares (gone for the season), had scratched Thomas Vanek (expected to be traded) and had earlier in the day traded Andrew MacDonald?
Don't even go there.
"It's a point gained for us," said Mark Stuart. "We've got to grab them whenever we can. Now it's just a matter of getting the next one and grabbing two."
"We were down by one goal going into the third... we'll take it," added Olli Jokinen. "That could be a big point going forward. Overall we were a little bit tight, but this is the way things are going to be: all the teams are good and everybody wants to win."
That much was evident from the Islanders right from the opening puck drop. Despite being short-staffed and lacking some of its star power, the Isles got some big-time work from goaltender Anders Nilsson and some of their foot soldiers, especially the penalty-kill unit which completely stifled the Jets on five chances.
The OT loss means the Jets are now 30-26-7, good for 67 points. That leaves them one back of the Dallas Stars, who fell 4-2 Tuesday to Columbus, but still hold the final Western Conference wild-card spot. The other bit of good news was the Nashville Predators, who are still in the Jets' rear-view mirror, fell to Pittsburgh and are now five back of Winnipeg.
The Phoenix Coyotes, however, did knock off the Vancouver Canucks 1-0 and pulled into a tie with the Jets for 67 points.
Jets centre Mark Scheifele had to be helped off the ice midway through the second period after taking a hit on his knee from Isles' defenceman Calvin de Haan. Paul Maurice said the rookie pivot — who has been so solid in the latter half of the season — will be further evaluated on Wednesday.
"We'll have Mark tested (Wednesday) morning and get a real good understanding of what we're dealing with," said Maurice. "I'm not going to speculate on what we think in terms of the length of this. We'll know everything we need to know by the time we meet tomorrow."
Asked if he could still be available for Thursday's game against Los Angeles, Maurice added: "If he goes in and it's all clean and everything's good, then there's a chance. But the spectre is there now with what we think." And there's more: Maurice said Chris Thorburn, who was in a first-period fight with Matt Martin and finished the game on the bench but was limited to 48 seconds of ice time, has an upper-body injury.
Andrew Ladd was the best of the Jets, scoring his 16th and 17th goals of the season, including the critical game-tying marker with just 5:07 left on a breakaway.
Michael Grabner was the OT hero after splitting the Jets' D to beat Ondrej Pavelec — the kind of defensive breakdowns that were far too prevalent all night — but, again, the message in the home-side clubhouse was all about the rally.
"We understand there are no easy games in this league," said Ladd. "I thought we were a little tight, in the first period especially. We got a little looser as the game went on and I thought we did a good job of getting it into overtime and getting a point.
"We'll take the positive of getting one point and move on."
"We've played some darn fine hockey here," said Maurice. "We've had some stretches where our compete is what got us through it — the blocked shots. But tonight at the end of the day the execution with the hands and the feet wasn't good enough to win the game. It was good enough to get a point.
"We'll learn. We're a young team and we'll learn how to get better at that. That being said, we weren't winning our last 21 games. We weren't. Nobody is."

Provided by Wayland Baptist University Athletics
Markus Monroe scored a season-high 31 points – including several highlight reel dunks – to lead the Wayland Baptist Pioneers to an 81-68 win over Oklahoma Baptist in Sooner Athletic Conference play on Thursday night in Hutcherson Center.
The Pioneers (11-2, 2-1) led at halftime, 33-23, and never let the Bison (7-7, 1-3) back in the game in the second half.
Wayland made just 2-of-20 shots from three-point range, but it didn't really matter. The Pioneers shot 71 percent (29-of-41) from inside the arc.
Barry Johnson added 13 and Royal Crouch 11 for the Pioneers, who outrebounded the Bison, 45-33, paced by point guard Travis Payton's 11 boards. Payton also ended with eight assists, five points and three steals.
OBU was led by Aaron Abram's 26 points and 13 rebounds. Morris Woods added 17 points.
Wayland returns to action at 3 p.m. Saturday against No. 18 Mid-America Christian (8-3, 4-1), which edged OBU, 69-64, in its last game Jan. 7.

Rigel has always known he is not quite human, but the only clue to his origin is the otherworldly bracelet he has worn since childhood. His search for his parentage leads him to the Starlands, where reality and fantasy have changed places. There he learns that he is a human-starborn cross, and his bracelet is the legendary magical amulet Saiph, which makes its wearer an unbeatable swordsman.
Fighting off monsters, battling a gang of assassins seeking to kill him, Rigel finds honorable employment as a hero. He knows that he must die very soon if he remains in the Starlands, but he has fallen hopelessly in love with a princess and cannot abandon her. Through the imaginative landscape of the Starlands, Rigel's quest leads him to encounter minotaurs, sphinxes, cyclops, and more fearsome creatures in Dave Duncan's latest fantasy series.
©2013 Dave Duncan (P)2013 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
Likes to listen while doing chores; likes to write reviews while he should be doing chores.
"Forget the mattock; dig in with a teaspoon"
Not having read Duncan before, I did not know what to expect, only that the book was recommended to me by audible based on my other reads.
One good thing about this book is that it includes all the trappings of heroic fantasy. Orphaned hero seeking his parentage, living on the edge of society because he's just a bit different, gets whisked off to a magical land where he discovers he has some special amulet which makes him extremely powerful, but also comes with its own enemies and perils. And then you throw in all the things that are supposed to be in a fantasy novels, centaurs, minotaurs, harpies, elves, sphinxes. Notably lacking: a bearded dwarf that spoke with a Scottish brogue.
Unfortunately, because of this, it seemed like a novel built from stock parts.
It is a quick fantasy read that will not challenge the reader. It moves along fast enough and doesn't bog down. It is OK so long as you don't try to dig too deep.
Another good thing about this book is the reading. Podehl does yeoman's work deepening characters that Duncan wrote pretty flat. He deserves quite a bit of credit for raising this book up in my estimation.
Now about those characters...
This is one piece where the book really fails. The characters are almost all one dimensional, many wouldn't even have that if it weren't for Podehl's reading. The evil megalomaniac is a bad guy, because he's a bad guy. His evil henchman performs odious acts, because that is what you do when you're an evil henchman. The main character acts heroically. Why? To impress a girl. That's new. The reader just can't identify with what is essentially a cast of cardboard cutouts.
I would not recommend this to anyone except maybe the convinced Duncan fan who knows exactly what he or she is getting into.
Hey there! I am a Fantasy/Sci-Fi nut. I also enjoy a good zombie novel or thriller now and then. My likes tend towards Young adult novels as I find most of the "adult" Fantasy novels to be uppity for lack of a better word. Follow me if you like the same as I intend to go back and review every book I had listened to on this site and will keep doing so.
"Surprisingly good!"
I picked up this book without a lot of hope but was a little bored. Next thing I know I was sucked in! There are truly many twists that you do not see coming, and from a huge reader that is hard to do to me!
The book does a great job of making you feel for the lead, while also filling out the other players in the story very well. The world is fleshed out amazingly well, and leaves you wishing to go yourself!
If you enjoy good Sc-Fi or Fantasy you will almost certainly enjoy this book as it does a wonderful job of weaving the two together.
I highly suggest you give this one a try, I am currently reading book 2 of the duet and it is just as good as the first and for the price these books are a steal!
"Princess of Mars meets Kingkiller Chronicles"
This book is exactly what I wanted it to be: a light, popcorn listen.
I wasn't' expecting Rothfuss or anything, just a mildly humorous fantasy book that was set in modern day, which is what this turned out to be. You have Rigel who is head over heals for the alien (It's cool, he's half alien after all). Rigel wields the most dangerous weapon in the known universe and is shunted to another....realm? Planet? Galaxy? Something. Here he is a lower class citizen in love with the upper class. Because of this he gets stuck in the middle of a great assassination plot. Where everyone wants to either use him or make sure no one else can use him.
You know what? The best way to describe this book is the lovechild (I made a joke, read the book to get my glory) of Patrick Rothfuss (I actually checked to see if it was him under pseudonym) and Edgar Rice Burroughs circa Princess of Mars.
I'll finish this series as each book comes out. And I'm not going to recommend this book to anyone, if any of what my review or the book flap sends you.... it's exactly what's on the tin.
"Nick Podehl ruined this book"
I just can't stand Nick Podehl's narration!!! I think this book would be really entertaining if they had a better narrator. The book itself was pretty good. The problem was with Nick's narration caused me to drift off and I would have to rewind the book and really focus on the book. I love David Duncon's The Magic Casement series and this series was just not as good.

The left corner of my desk is a popular spot these days. See, its gardening season, and as a former nursery owner and landscape designer, and currently a Master Gardener, I'm the go-to office guru for all things horticultural, botanical, and outdoor mechanical.That translates daily to someone perching on my desk or sending an email, usually accompanied by a hand-drawn sketch, asking for advice or just general hand-holding. Even after all these years, I am the first to admit that gardening can be overwhelming to the point of paralysis but, as with most DIY projects, let me clue you in on a little fact—it's more about having the right tools than being a savant.
So, I thought it might be useful to answer a few questions and share a few products that can help make gardening a chore you adore.
- Can I grow tomatoes in a pot?
Answer, yes, as long as it is one big ol' pot.The root ball on a mature tomato plant can easily fill a 15-gallon nursery container so watchword here is go big or go home. Please, yes, I am pleading, invest in a 20" or larger pot. Your plants will thrive and healthy plants are less inclined to be pest-magnets.
- How often do I feed my potted plants?
Entire books have been written on this topic, but as a general rule feed when you plant, after the first blooms or fruits, and once more just to use up what's left in the bag of fertilizer. The first feeding helps set roots and inspires shoots, while the second nourishes plants that have doubled-down in their effort to put out flowers and fruit. That third feeding is more about greening up tired plants and it just makes everyone feel better. Cultivate soil (just scratch the surface with a trowel to loosen compacted planting mix) and feed according to product directions.
- I have an ugly wall. Now what?
It would seem urban blight isn't contained to cities because my co-workers have flashed me pictures of generic fences, scary looking concrete walls, and prison-worthy wire fences out in the 'burbs. My best advice goes like this, "vines are divine" and adding a sturdy trellis gets you halfway to heaven. Look for vines that, by habit, cling or sucker to surfaces, thereby doing most of the work for you. If you are more adventurous, try a vertical garden like this one.
- I want a no-work, no-hassle garden.
I'll just wave my magic wand over your patch of dirt and shazaam! If only, right? My advice here is to create a small but glorious little patch where you are most likely to see it daily. A few flowering shrubs, a pretty fountain, and a few cooking herbs tucked in pots is all you need. Now you can get on with the rest of your busy life.
Even though you can't come sit desk side and whip out your iPhone to regale me with your landscaping horror pix, I'm here to help. Any questions?
- Kate

Tips for Insomniacs - Antioxidant Sources
Q I travel a lot for work and notice two problems, particularly when I fly: My skin gets incredibly dry and my digestion really suffers. What can I do to take care of myself when traveling?
A According to Ayurveda, the traditional healing system of India, the universe is comprised of five basic principles, which can loosely be translated as space, air, fire, water and earth. Space represents the potential for manifestation. Air represents movement and change. Fire is the power of transformation. Water reflects the attractive forces that hold things together, while earth represents the boundaries of objects and things. These five great elements combine to form three biological mind-body principles, or doshas, known as Vata, the movement principle composed of space and air; Pitta, the digestion principle made up of fire and water; and Kapha, the protection principle bringing together water and earth. These three codes of nature govern our physiology and psychology.
Traveling by air is an inherently Vata-aggravating experience and may result in irregularity, dryness, anxiety, insomnia and difficulty with concentration.
Ayurveda suggests a few tips to balance Vata when you're on the go. Drink plenty of warm, non-caffeinated beverages. Make up a thermos bottle of gingerroot tea (1 teaspoon grated ginger per pint of hot water) to take with you on the plane. On the morning and evening you travel, apply almond or sesame massage oil to your skin. Eat less while traveling, seeking out warm soups rather than salads and sandwiches. Lubricate your nasal passages with a tiny drop of oil placed into each nostril.
When you get to your destination, as soon as possible take a warm bath. Drink warm liquids and try immediately to align with the rhythm of your destination city. If it's lunchtime when you arrive, eat lunch. Maintaining optimal biological rhythms even while traveling is the best way to counter the aggravating effects of travel on Vata and reduce the symptoms that reflect it.
Q I know how important antioxidants are for my health. I would prefer to get as many as possible through food sources rather than supplementation. Can you suggest an easy way to choose the most beneficial foods?
A Almost every biological function requires oxygen, which supplies electrons to run the machinery of the body. An oxygen molecule that has released its electron becomes a free radical or reactive oxygen species (ROS). When a free radical forms, it becomes irritable and immediately seeks to replace its missing electron. It will do this by stealing an electron from any local protein, fat or DNA molecule. The resulting damage from this free-radical attack contributes to a wide range of illnesses, including heart disease, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease and cancer.
Antioxidants are molecules that willingly donate their electrons to free radicals. Vitamin E, vitamin C and beta-carotene are the best known of these natural ROS neutralizers. Nutritional science i...

HARRISON COUNTY, KY (WAVE) - Charges have been dropped for a man accused of torturing his girlfriend for hours, but not because he didn't do it.
A Harrison County judge ruled that Harold Stevens, 55, is incompetent to stand trial according to a clinical psychologist. Stevens was accused of raping his then girlfriend, stabbing her with a screw driver and hitting her in the head with a hammer.
"Did it scare me? Yes it scared me. I've hid so much that I'm not even on the grid," said Dorothy Butcher, the victim. "Because I'm scared to death if I leave a paper trail he's going find me and he's told people he's going to do it. He's going to finish the job."
According to the Harrison County Attorney, Stevens in now a free man because of the judge's ruling.

: In Soho, on our way to meet Sherill Tippins- the historian of the Chelsea Hotel. Radek is drawn to some street art. Sophie is there by his side to document.
Art is our weapon. Fire away.
"Was not so much our finding America as it was America finding
its voice in us; many spoke to America as though
America by land-right was theirs by law-right
legislatively acquired by materialistic coups of
wealth and inheritance; like the citizen of society
believes himself the owner of society, and what he
makes of himself he makes of America and thus when
he speaks of America he speaks of himself, and quite
often such a he is duly elected to represent what he
represents… an infernal ego of an America
Thus many a patriot speaks lovingly of himself when he speaks
of America, and not to appreciate him is not to
appreciate America, and vice-versa
The tongue of truth is the true tongue of America, and it could
not be found in the Daily Heralds since the voice
therein was a controlled voice, wickedly
opinionated, and directed at gullible
No wonder we found ourselves rootless… for we've become the
very roots themselves,—the lie can never take root and there grow under a truth of sun and therefrom bear the fruit of truth"

2 ways of looking at ticket scalping
People reselling seats at inflated prices are part of the scenery at concerts and sporting events. Is it 'pure capitalism,' or is it a crime?
Bad karma, dude. That's what one University of Oregon professor says ticket scalpers are accumulating by scooping up tickets to the Dalai Lama's scheduled appearance at the school next month and selling them online for more than 10 times the original price of $20.
Despite the amazing cynicism involved in trying to make a buck off a religious leader (and a winner of the Nobel Peace Prize to boot), scalping -- the reselling of legally purchased tickets for often more than their original face value -- is just part of the scenery at most major sporting and entertainment events.
The publication Entertainment and Sports Lawyer estimates the "secondary ticket market" is a $5 billion business with a growth rate of about 12%. Myles Kaufman at the ticket search engine SeatGeek found 29 states have laws regarding the resale of tickets. But only a handful, he says, have outright bans or strong regulations. And those laws are often hard to enforce.
Efforts to get a Fairness in Ticketing Act passed in Tennessee's legislature failed last week. Several big venues supported the bill, which would have required ticket brokers to register with state authorities and disclose both the original price and seat number of tickets.
"It's upsetting to see what people pay, double or triple, for ticket prices, Tennessee Theatre general manager Tom Bugg told WBIR-TV. "And there's no recourse for them when they figure it out."
But according to TicketNews.com, the Tennessee measure was doomed by opposition from consumer advocates, property rights activists, event-goers -- and groups like the Fan Freedom Project. The group bills itself as a grassroots organization. It received initial funding, however, from StubHub, the online ticket marketplace that's a division of eBay (EBAY).
According to Fan Freedom, one of the main issues it has against anti-scalping laws is ticket transferability. "When fans buy tickets, we own them," the organization's website says. "We have the right to buy, give away or sell our tickets however we choose, anytime we choose, in any way we choose, at any price we choose."
In the meantime, Entertainment and Sports Lawyer says Stubhub and companies like industry giant Ticketmaster -- which merged in 2010 with Live Nation to form Live Nation Entertainment (LYV) -- "have stepped up their efforts in statehouses across the nation and inside the Beltway as part of an effort to align the laws with their respective interests."
And not everyone considers scalping a bad thing. Jim Caple at ESPN.com calls it "capitalism at its purest level."
"An event is sold out, you need a ticket and the scalper provides you one at a mutually agreed upon price," he wrote several years back. "You don't need to be Louis Rukeyser to understand the remarkable efficiency of this market."
So the business to be in is to buy up every ticket for a popular event and then resell them at inflated prices. Sounds like a reasonable business model and fair too. You just might be the lucky person to be 5th in line waiting for tickets but the 4th person buys them all. What a deal!
I understand if you buy a pair of tickets for a concert but your wife goes into labor before the show and you want to get your investment back; ticket price, time spent waiting in line etc. But to be able to purchase large blocks of tickets and thus bring on a "sold out" condition prematurely for the sole purpose of resale at profit is inherently unfair to those who deserve the chance to buy at face value.
Ticket scalping should be illegal and enforced. This is a parasitic industry that includes large companies like Live Nation Entertainment and small scale local street level scalpers. They are all guilty of changing the price of live entertainment and often times increasing the price so much that the event becomes too expensive for the very people the event is staged for.
I don't have a problem with fans buying tickets then reselling them if they want, I do have a problem with corporations buying up all the supply of tickets to an event with the sole purpose of reselling them at an outrageous markup. Supply and demand should not be fueled by companies cornering the market by buying all the tickets before the fans get a chance to buy them.
Why is scalping illegal at all, likely because the venue isn't getting their cut, and Uncle Sam isn't getting their cut; its about supply and demand but more about who gets paid from your sale.
If I bought a car and it was a super popular car and I turn around an sell it for a profit. Is BMW going to come after me for scalping my car...why is the entertainment industry different.

Earlier this month, Pink tweeted that June was "crazy hair month," and now she's putting her money where her mouth is -- by shaving half her head.
Pictures of the singer on People magazine's website show her with long straight blonde hair on one side of her head, and the other side shaved nearly bald. It's similar to a hairstyle that Rihanna had not too long ago. There are also some faint pink and blue highlights in Pink's platinum locks.
Pink wrote on June 1, "officially decided that June is crazy hair month. If there's something you have been wanting to do---go for it! No Fear! Crazy hair is fun."
The singer will kick off her record-setting tour of Australia on June 25. It's not clear just what hairstyle she'll be rocking onstage while Down Under.

NEW HANOVER COUNTY, NC (WECT) – New Hanover County Commissioner
Brian Berger left his checkbook at home Monday night. Instead he ended the
board's October 1 meeting with comments to county staff for its recent work on
his expenses.
Berger called the $477.16 amount owed to the county an
example of 'government math in action.' He continued, saying it is
inappropriate for staff to devote time to an issue so small, especially when he
already agreed to pay. Berger told WECT.com that he would bring the money to
Monday's meeting. After the meeting, he said the money would be paid sometime
later in the week.
The commissioner might not support staff's efforts, but
County Manager Chris Coudriet said the project to collect expense reports and
receipts came from an initial request by Berger himself. Coudriet said such a
task might not be the best use of time, but his office has to complete any
requests from commissioners.
When asked about his comments after the meeting, Berger told
WECT.com that some staff members, while on the job, are working to attack him.
He would not provide specifics, but Berger said there is the appearance of
wrongdoing. Coudriet considered the accusation absurd.
"To suggest that we are creating mischief or digging for
information is incorrect and I think unfair," he said. "There is absolutely
nothing in the public or private record that would suggest that."

Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD)
The Vaccine Safety Datalink (VSD) is a collaborative project between CDC's Immunization Safety Office and nine health care organizations. The VSD started in 1990 and continues today in order to monitor safety of vaccines and conduct studies about rare and serious adverse events following immunization.
The VSD uses electronic health data from each participating site. This includes information on vaccines - the kind of vaccine that is given to each patient, date of vaccination, and other vaccinations given on the same day. The VSD also uses information on medical illnesses that have been diagnosed at doctors' offices, urgent care visits, emergency department visits, and hospital stays. The VSD conducts vaccine safety studies based on questions or concerns raised from the medical literature and reports to the Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System (VAERS). When there are new vaccines that have been recommended for use in the United States or if there are changes in how a vaccine is recommended, the VSD will monitor the safety of these vaccines.
The VSD has a long history of monitoring and evaluating the safety of vaccines. Since 1990, investigators from the VSD have published many studies to address vaccine safety concerns. Examples of VSD's work include the following:
- Are vaccines that contain additives safe for children? How about vaccines with preservatives?
- Are rotavirus vaccines safe for infants?
- Do vaccines cause febrile seizures?
- Are there safety concerns following HPV vaccine?
Participating VSD HealthCare Organizations
- Group Health Cooperative of Puget Sound, Seattle, Washington
- Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Boston, Massachusetts
- HealthPartners Research Foundation, Minneapolis, Minnesota
- Kaiser Permanente Northwest, Portland, Oregon
- Kaiser Permanente Medical Care Program of Northern California, Oakland, California
- Kaiser Permanente Colorado, Denver, Colorado
- Kaiser Permanente of Georgia, Atlanta, GA
- Marshfield Clinic Research Foundation, Marshfield, Wisconsin
- Southern California Kaiser Permanente Health Care Program, Los Angeles, California
Objectives of the VSD
- To conduct research on important vaccine safety questions in large populations
- To conduct vaccine safety studies that come from questions or concerns in the medical literature or from other vaccine safety systems, like VAERS
- To monitor possible adverse events when new vaccines are licensed or when there are new vaccine recommendations
- To provide information to committees who make recommendations for the nation
Rapid Cycle Analysis
Rapid Cycle Analysis (RCA) allows VSD to detect adverse events following vaccination in near real time so the public can be informed quickly of possible risks.
How Can I Access VSD Data?
Interested researchers are able to access VSD data and data from published VSD studies through public use datasets, the VSD data sharing program, and collaboration with current VSD investigators.

The First 5 Power Tools to Add to Your Tool Box
There are always going to be minimalists that insist you don't need anything but a hammer. So if you're looking to add a few power tools to your toolbox, it can be difficult to know where to start. Luckily, we've put together a short list of the 5 best power tools for beginners to add to their arsenal—whether you're taking on a huge renovation or just trying to keep up with little home repairs.
If you wander into Home Depot looking for a new addition to your workbench, it's easy to be overwhelmed with the latest 10-in-1 power tools that promise to solve all your problems.
Instead, stock up on these basics, if you haven't already. These essential power tools can tackle almost any task:
1. Drill / Driver
Essential to anchoring frames on the wall, everyone should make this their first power tool purchase. Get a combination drill and driver tool that can drill holes in the wall with a drill bit, then seamlessly get to work screwing around with flat- and phillips-head attachments.
2. Laser Level
Another one that going to help you with simple around-the-house tasks, the laser level is a definite upgrade from your dollar-store plastic level. You'll get hands-free precision accuracy each time.
3. Jigsaw
The jigsaw is a hand held tool that can cut detailed shapes into wood, metal and other materials. Where the most saws cut straight lines, the jigsaw can cut curves—making it ideal for any creative projects you've got.
4. Circular Saw
A circular saw is necessary if you're going to be cutting straight through anything wider than a soup can. Whether you choose a hand-held or table-mounted circular saw, it's perfect for sizing down just-a-bit-too-long lumber or shortening table legs.
5. Impact Wrench
An impact wrench doesn't do anything differently than a simple wrench. The difference is that it does it better. Instead of constanlty tightening nuts and bolts that loosen up over time, an impact wrench will securely tighten them the first time it's used.

5 Comments
If you are choosing your first 5, a sander will get more use than an impact wrench.
I think the saws are pretty useless unless you have a work bench - I mean, you can't be cutting wood on the floor (unless you want to cut a hole in your floor too!).
To cross cut a board, you can support it on a couple kitchen chairs. 2 sawhorses and an old door or piece of ply can act as a workbench. A few bricks can even be used to raise a piece of wood so that it can be safely cut on the floor. The saws are very useful.
I have to disagree about the impact wrench. Torque values for lugs are set for a reason, if you overtighten you can damage things.
When the tire shop used an impact wrench, they cross threaded it and ruined the hub on my VW (since VW uses a lug bolt in lieu of a lug nut) it ruined the hub and bearing assembly.
great post but you forget about electric polish power tools
great power tools review

Wednesday, July 17, 2013 - 9:16am
San Francisco, CA — Asiana Airlines will not pursue a lawsuit against a bay area TV-station over a major mistake in its coverage of the recent Asiana crash in San Francisco.
During KTVU''s noon broadcast Friday, an anchor reported erroneous and offensive names of the pilots. The bogus names phonetically spelled out phrases such as "something wrong" and "we too low."
Asiana Airlines called the report "demeaning" and said it was "reviewing possible legal action."
but Wednesday it said it would not file a suit after KTVU offered an official apology.
Three people were killed and more than 180 others were hurt in the crash. The early stage of the investigation has focused heavily on actions of the crew during the landing attempt.
