Time Extension Request
PA ID# 111-65042-00; City of San Buenaventura
PW ID# 897 and 906; Time Extension Request
Severe rainstorms in January 2005 produced very high storm water flows through the normally dry Ventura River bed. The storm water flow and associated debris scoured the river bed and embankments and damaged the City of San Buenaventura's (Applicant) water pipelines and wells located at the Foster Park Well Field. The wells provide the community's drinking water supply. On February 4, 2005, a major disaster was declared as a result of the severe storms and flooding. FEMA approved PW 897 (August 2005) and PW 906 (June 2005) for damage incurred during the storm and for proposed hazard mitigation measures to stabilize the eroded riverbank and prevent future damage.
FEMA prepared PW 897 to repair 1,000 linear feet of 12-inch raw water pump line between Nye Wells 7 and 8, and 900 linear feet of 16-inch pipeline crossing the river. The estimated cost of repair was $420,804. FEMA also approved a hazard mitigation proposal for slope protection. The proposed bank stabilization and slope protection measure included two rock groins and riprap extending 1,200 feet along the west bank of the river. The estimated cost of the proposal was $829,206. FEMA prepared PW 906 to replace and relocate Nye Well 1A and associated pipelines in the amount of $303,609. In addition, slope protection and bank stabilization was proposed for the east bank of the river to mitigate future damages to the relocated well. The estimated cost of the proposal was $952,686. The California Emergency Management Agency (Grantee) approved time extensions for the PWs through January 15, 2009, pursuant to Title 44 Code of Federal Regulations (44 CFR) §206.204(c) Project performance, Time limitations for completion of work.
On October 21, 2008, FEMA granted an extension to complete both projects per their original scopes of work through December 31, 2009. The Applicant requested an additional time extension until December 30, 2011, citing delays caused by environmental reviews, permitting requirements and seasonal construction constraints. The Grantee forwarded the Applicant's request on April 8, 2009, recommending approval and noting the Applicant's intent to revise the scopes of work. Updated cost estimates for the projects were provided on June 17, 2009. On August 7, 2009, FEMA responded with a request for additional information to include: a detailed construction timeline, scope of work for bank protection design, differences between original PW and actual scopes of work, status of coordination with an adjacent pre-disaster mitigation project for the Ojai Valley Sanitation District, status of environmental reviews and other permits, status of compliance with National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) requirements. While the Applicant submitted some of the requested information, more detailed information on the revised scope of work was necessary for FEMA to make a decision on the time extension. Over the next seven months, FEMA worked with the Grantee and the Applicant to obtain details regarding the revised scope of the hazard mitigation proposals.
On March 3, 2010, the Applicant submitted a revised mitigation proposal. The mitigation measures for PW 897 included the design and construction of three spur dikes along the west bank with an estimated cost of $2.5 million. The proposal for PW 906 included the design and construction of six spur dikes with 800 linear feet of riprap along the east bank for a total estimate of $4.8 million. On May 19, 2010, FEMA conducted an interagency meeting with all of the environmental agencies, the Grantee and the Applicant to discuss the project's environmental clearance. Based upon the information obtained at that meeting, FEMA concluded that the necessary environmental reviews would not only be lengthy, but the associated clearances would be potentially unattainable due to a related upstream project.
In addition, because the original PWs did not include a benefit-cost analysis (BCA) for the proposed hazard mitigation proposals and the scope of work had changed, FEMA performed a BCA in August 2010 based on the current cost data obtained from the Applicant. Based on the results, the projects were not cost effective. The benefit-cost ratios were 0.14 and 0.87 for the west and east bank projects respectively. On October 4, 2010, FEMA determined that the hazard mitigation projects were ineligible and denied the request for a time extension.
First Appeal
On December 8, 2010, the Applicant appealed the denial of the time extension request for PWs 897 and 906. The Applicant, with the support of the Grantee, requested reimbursement of $412,301 in related environmental and design costs incurred through September 2, 2010, plus the additional costs to complete the design and construction of the bank protection project. The Applicant's proposed completion date was December 30, 2012. The Applicant cited the following as a basis for its appeal:
· Risk to human health and endangered species habitat without the project
· City's timely request for time extensions and continued city funding
· Delays in city's efforts to obtain environmental compliance caused by FEMA
· Potential inadequacy, errors, and inappropriate application of regulations in the BCA
· Failure of FEMA to provide a copy of the BCA.
FEMA denied the appeal on October 17, 2011. FEMA stated that the time extension was requested only for the hazard mitigation portion of the project, and noted that the permanent repairs to restore the facility to its pre-disaster condition were complete. In addition, FEMA maintained that the proposed project was not cost-effective and, therefore, not eligible for funding under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act) Section 406 Repair, Restoration, and Replacement of Damaged Facilities. The issues brought forward by the Applicant were all addressed in the Regional Administrator's appeal analysis.
Second Appeal
On February 29, 2012, the Applicant submitted a second appeal for the time extension denial and the denial of additional costs incurred on the hazard mitigation proposals. The Applicant's second appeal is based on the contention that FEMA failed to provide it with a complete copy of the BCA used to deny the projects, FEMA relied on the wrong policy directive and incomplete data when conducting the BCA, and FEMA has denied the Applicant due process rights.
In support of the appeal, the Applicant reiterated the status of the design (90 percent complete) and preparation of the environmental documents (80 percent complete). The Applicant again requested reimbursement of $412,301 in related environmental and design costs, plus the additional costs to complete the design and construction of the bank protection project.
The primary issue of the second appeal is whether the Applicant's hazard mitigation proposals are eligible for Public Assistance funding as allowed under Section 406 of the Stafford Act, as amended; and, secondarily, whether the requested time extension is justified under 44 CFR §206.204(d) Project performance, Requests for time extensions.
The disaster damage reflected in PWs 897 and 906 was due to the flooding that occurred in January 2005. At that time, the applicable policy related to hazard mitigation funding for Public Assistance projects was Response and Recovery Policy 9526.1, Hazard Mitigation Funding under Section 406 (Stafford Act) dated August 13, 1998. This policy was revised as Disaster Assistance Policy 9526.1 on July 30, 2007, and again on March 30, 2010. Specifically, the 2010 policy was revised to adopt the BCA tools and methodologies utilized for the Hazard Mitigation Grant Programs. This added elements, such as loss of function, to be considered when determining projected benefits. However, the 2010 policy is not retroactive and only applies to disasters declared after the policy issuance date of March 30, 2010.
The Applicant's appeal claims that FEMA relied on the wrong policy and incomplete data when conducting the BCA. In particular, the Applicant states that the 1998 policy allowed wide discretion in determining what factors to include in a BCA. The 1998 policy, however, does not specify the factors to use when determining cost-effectiveness. Furthermore, prior to the 2010 policy, the only benefits considered under Section 406 were future avoided costs related to direct damages to the facility, necessary emergency protective measures and temporary relocation assistance. Additional elements, such as benefits associated with loss of function of the damaged facility, were not included. Accordingly, the BCA performed by FEMA for PWs 897 and 906 did not include loss of function as a benefit. Upon review, the BCA followed an acceptable methodology and utilized data provided by the Applicant's design engineer, Hawks & Associates. Data provided by the Applicant included project cost estimates, historical erosion rates, project useful life, and project maintenance costs.
With regard to other impacts requested by the Applicant to be considered in the BCA, many are associated with facilities outside the Applicant's legal responsibility, including the Casitas Municipal Water District pipeline, the Ojai Valley Sanitation District sewer trunk line, and Highway 33. In accordance with past and current policy, mitigation measures must be related to eligible disaster-related damage and must directly reduce the potential of future, similar disaster damages to the eligible facility (i.e., the Applicant's damaged wells and pipelines). Upon review, the BCA correctly excluded benefits associated with other facilities.
In conclusion, FEMA applied the correct policy at the time of the disaster and the data used was complete and sufficient in determining cost-effectiveness. Because the BCA resulted in benefit-cost ratios of less than 1.0 for both the west and east bank projects, the hazard mitigation proposals are not cost effective, and therefore, not eligible for Public Assistance funding. A complete copy of the BCA is attached to this appeal analysis.
Relative to the Applicant's request for a time extension, there is no justification to extend the deadline for these PWs. Based on the appeal documentation, FEMA was not formally notified of the changes in design and cost estimates for the hazard mitigation projects until the Grantee forwarded the Applicant's time extension request on April 8, 2009. Subsequently, due to the significant changes to the original scope and the substantial increase in costs (three and five times the original estimates), FEMA justifiably re-evaluated the feasibility and cost-effectiveness of the proposed measures. As determined above, the hazard mitigation proposals are not eligible, and for this reason, no further time extension is required.
The Applicant's proposed bank stabilization projects are not a cost-effective hazard mitigation measure in accordance with Response and Recovery Policy 9526.1, Hazard Mitigation Funding under Section 406 (Stafford Act) dated August 13, 1998. Because the project is not eligible, there is no justification for a time extension beyond the completion date of December 31, 2009, previously approved by the Regional Administrator.

AFP Delivers Two Spectacular Fitness Facilities in the Heart of New York City
Private State-of-the-Art Fitness Amenities Bring Added Luxury to the New Eventi Hotel And Residency at 835 Sixth Avenue
NEW YORK– August 19, 2010 – Advantage Fitness Products (AFP), the leading provider of fitness facility design, supply and service, finished one of its most ambitious projects to date, with the completion of two unique fitness centers at The Eventi – a Kimpton Hotel and Beatrice Luxury Residences located atop 835 Sixth Avenue, in New York's fashion district.
AFP has designed two separate gyms that will serve the wellness needs of both short-term hotel guests and long-term residents respectively.
The hotel's fitness center boasts a wide variety of amenities including personal viewing screens, new feature rich cardio equipment and functional training tools like exercise balls and stretch bands.
Like the hotel's fitness center, the residential fitness space was engineered with an equivalent level of detail and care, but tailored to accommodate and entertain users that will no doubt visit the gym several times a week. The facility offers a deeper selection of strength equipment and complementary items including free weights, core and balance focused stations and an array of dumbbells and accessories.
"The Eventi is truly an exceptional property. Our local team worked very closely with the developer to meet their expectations of providing both quality equipment and an exceptional guest experience. The building itself displays an energy and such an inviting feel that frankly makes it very easy to transition into the fitness space", Bryan Green, President of AFP. "We're confident that hotel guests and residents alike will quickly understand and appreciate the care and planning that went into this beautiful offering."
The Eventi and Residences at Beatrice Luxury Rentals are the latest in a lineup of mixed use hotel and residence installations that AFP has successfully completed across the country such as the Ritz Carlton- L.A. LIVE and the Mondrian South Beach.

Why Sony (SNE) Stock Dropped Today
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Sony (SNE - Get Report) stock is enduring a tough trading session Wednesday after the company guided for another fiscal loss this year, its sixth annual loss in seven years. The Japanese tech company has struggled to turn a profit in recent years on flagging sales in consumer electronics and expensive restructuring moves.
For the fiscal year to March 2015, Sony said it expects to splash 135 billion yen ($1.3 billion) on restructuring costs as it nixes its unprofitable businesses related to PC and disc storage sales. In particular, its sale of laptop brand VAIO, scheduled to close in July, is expected to drag on profits.
By late afternoon, shares had dropped 7.3% to $16.36.

STOCKS TO BUY: TheStreet Quant Ratings has identified a handful of stocks that can potentially TRIPLE in the next 12 months. Learn more. TheStreet Ratings team rates SONY CORP as a Hold with a ratings score of C+. TheStreet Ratings Team has this to say about their recommendation: "We rate SONY CORP (SNE) a HOLD. The primary factors that have impacted our rating are mixed -- some indicating strength, some showing weaknesses, with little evidence to justify the expectation of either a positive or negative performance for this stock relative to most other stocks. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its compelling growth in net income, revenue growth and largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including a generally disappointing performance in the stock itself and poor profit margins."- You can view the full analysis from the report here: SNE Ratings Report

Mageia Alpha 0 Still on Track for January Release, Joins OIN
Initial release of Mandriva fork Mageia is still on track for release later this month. Numerous preparations continue behind the scenes to facilitate this highly anticipated release.
A previous report of an earlier packagers' meeting outlined some of the procedures and personnel in place and still needed to begin the process of building Mageia software. Hardware and temporary hosting was secured and the build system was being implemented. In a more recent blog posting, Mageia representatives stated that "packaging tasks have been launched." While the build system isn't fully operational, the first 40 packages are expected in the coming days as letters describing the SVN upload process, which is ready, have been sent. Mentors are being paired with new developers who did not previously have an account so they can begin their work as well.
The same post stated that the migration to permanent Web hosting isn't complete as of yet. The holidays contributed to the lag, but progress moving "Bugzilla, www, maintainers, account management, calendar, code repositories" is slowly being made. Completion is expected this month.
Despite running a bit behind, founders do not anticipate a delay in announcing their initial technical release. Alpha 0, as it is being called, is still on track for sometime in January. Anne Nicolas warns that it is just that - an alpha. She said, "things will be way more interesting in the coming months." The alpha was previously described as "Mandriva with the branding removed." From there Mageia is expected to diverge from Mandriva and slowly build its own identity.
In other Mageia news, it was announced that "Mageia.org has just joined Open Invention Network as a licensee." OIN was formed to help protect and share patents held by Linux members and to defend against patent infringement allegations from outside the Linux sphere. Many projects have joined OIN, either as members or licensees, to further this cause. Some include Novell, GNOME, Canonical, Red Hat, Mozilla, and KDE.
Susan Linton is a Linux writer and the owner of tuxmachines.org.
Mageia build sytem is up
Mageia build system status website :
Mageia now contains 1000 src.rpm !
All hail Mageia! I can't
All hail Mageia! I can't wait to see how Alpha 0 does, and the upcoming months sound like they will bring with them many improvements and upgraded features. Here is a really awesome article with easy explanations of what we can expect from Alpha 0 http://blog.mageia.org/?p=363Essay
Check it out, there's some good info there. Thanks for the post and the continued hype!
Mageia still on track
Good to see that the old Mandrake is making a come back through Mageia. I had used Mandrake/Mandriva until 07 when I got my (still) current PC. On a recommendation, I switched to Debian testing. I will give Mageia a try when it goes Beta.
On a side note, my favorite candidate for the logo was the yellow orb supported by the green tendrils. (http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/mgaorange/)
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

I'm out in my writing shed so I don't have the numbers to how many times my poetry manuscript was rejected, but will get you that info. We were way into double-digits, but I'm interested in going back to see the first time I submitted it. More on that later, but for now, I thought I'd offer some suggestions about publishing a book.
While I'm definitely not the "all-knowing" poet because I had a manuscript chosen in a contest (I do believe a lot of winning is luck & timing), I wanted to offer some thoughts and questions to think about while submitting your work to save you time, money, and hopefully, your sanity. I think they are things I wished someone had mentioned to me before I started submitting--
1) Is your manuscript done? This could have saved me a lot of time and money as I realize I was submitting my manuscript before it was complete? Why? Because the manuscript was ready for publication, but I was.
It's something to think about-- is your manuscript really ready for publication or are you? If your mss isn't ready, ask yourself what you need to do to get it ready (i.e. put it in a better order, write more poems, find a title?) Have a little conversation with your manuscript and see what it needs (more on this later).
2) Submit only to presses you want to be published in. Okay, this sounds obvious, but I'm amazed at hearing how people aren't happy because they were chosen by X contest. I say, "X contest didn't just choose you, you sent them your work." "I know," they said, "but that was because I didn't think I
would win." Huh?
I think the thing here is, sometimes we lower our standards too much. We so want to be published it becomes-- you or someone like you. Then it's -- you or someone who might know you. Then it's-- you or really anyone, anyone, I'm feeling desperate here...and lonely.
Try to imagine being chosen by the press you send to, are you happy or disappointed that you weren't chosen by Press Z and now wondering if you should say yes.
- Do you like they way their books look?
- Are you proud of them out in the world?
- Do you like other poets this press has published?
- Would you be happy to tell someone this press published you?
If getting published by a certain press isn't going to make turn cartwheels, but make you feel like your settling, maybe it isn't the best press to submit to.
This is a very long way of saying what I said to begin with-- Submit only to presses you want to publish your book.
3) How do you feel about contests? There are a lot of poets who despise contests, I'm someone who doesn't for a lot of reasons. Here are some reasons I like poetry contests--
a) I think they are fun and I think winning something is fun and fun to tell people. Maybe this is my 7 year old girl-self, but it was really fantastic to win a book prize. Maybe this is the girl in me who never got the trophy (except from my good friend, Nancy as a birthday gift. It reads: Poetic Champion of the World (that always makes me smile).
b) These contests keep the press afloat! As much as some despise them, they are helping our independent presses stay alive! It's as if 300-900 people made $20 to $25 donations to the poetry presses of America. If that's how presses find the best way to get their money because people aren't buying books or making donations on their own, then so be it. It's not their job to help us out, it's their job to stay alive in a world of big publishers.
c) I like getting the winning book and (this might sound odd), but it feels more real or validating to me to have someone choose my book then for me to publish it on my own. I know that last one has to do with my insecurities, but I just thought I'd throw that out there because I bet may be a few of you who feel that way too.
4) Before you submit to a publisher, have someone else proof it for you and find the typos. There will be some, trust me on this!
5) Make sure to also send it to presses that don't run contests as they are cheaper and/or free. Pitt, Sarabande, Boa, are a few I immediately thought of that will take manuscripts submissions in certain months. Some require you to have already published a first book, some don't. But they are great presses and I would have been doing cartwheels to be chosen by any of these!
6) Ask yourself, "Are there any poems I need to write for this manuscript to be complete?" This is similar to #1 but a little different. I think many times we start with X number of poems then try to order them or pull out the weakest ones, but I think it's always a good idea to ask yourself what is missing?When I first showed my manuscript to peers in my MFA program, they felt it was missing emotion. It was so witty or smart and full of word play, which they liked, but overall it felt shallow. That was in 2006-2007 and I spent the next year rewriting it and adding poems that gave it more an emotional depth.
7) Know what would make you happy and follow that. Do you want to win a book prize or do you want to have a book to sell at readings? Do you want to be published by a prestigious press or do you want to published by a local press that isn't as well known? Do you just want to get your poems into the hands of readers or do you have a specific goal?
Some poets are just as happy by self-publishing their own book (they have full control, it's less money, etc) while others want to go with a press already in business, (it feels more prestigious or "real" to them, they don't have to do all the graphic work of creating a book, all the details like getting it on Amazon & the ISBN # are covered). Either way is a good way, you just have to know you.
I knew myself enough to know I wanted to go with a press already in business and I wanted my manuscript chosen by someone.
And if you go way back to my Artist Way Action Plan of May 2008 (the last one I did) it says this: Goal: Publish an Award-Winning Second Book of Poems.
I guess my final thoughts are know yourself and what you want and what would make you both happiest and the most satisfied. And find the best path for you. It's kind of both the best and worst parts of being a poet-- there's no one way. I think it's more of a good thing because there are so many roads to take to achieve whatever your goal is.
Anyway, just some thoughts to consider. Not the truth, not the facts, just maybe something to think about as you submit.
Oh and trust luck and timing, it's part of it in much of life's stories...

Jolie-Pitt family donates $1M to hospital
June 14, 2009
Brad Pitt's brother Doug said the actor, his family and actress Angelina Jolie have donated $1 million to St. John's Hospital in Springfield, Mo.
Usmagazine.com said the money will help establish an endowment fund to pay children's cancer specialists. The donation will also help the hospital build a new pediatric unit, as well as double the size of its neonatal and pediatric intensive care units.
St. John's is matching the donation to help fund the expansion of the hospital's cancer treatment unit, which will be renamed the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Center, in honor of Brad's mother, Usmagazine.com said.

Support Tattoos and Piercings at Work
I was recently contacted by the Communications Director of 'Support Tattoos and Piercings at Work', or STAPAW for short. In their own words STAPAW is a Heal the World movement aimed at raising awareness about discrimination of piercings and tattoos in the workplace. STAPAW helps pierced and/or inked staff and bosses, as well as non-pierced and non-inked staff and bosses in the following ways:
- Change stereotypes.
- Encourage positive character and work ethic.
- Feature positive companies and employers.
- Feature hard working employees.
- Help employees who lose their job because of discrimination.
- Work with companies to change dress code and hiring policies.
- Educate employers on the negative effects of discrimination.
- Protect employers' right of decision making.
- Promote community involvement with charities.
- Change perceptions, not by words, but by actions.
My goal for this blog is to help change stereotypes and perceptions. STAPAW takes it to the next level by reaching out to people affected by discrimination and working with companies to change policies. I encourage everyone to check out their website and get involved if possible. There are petitions to sign, opportunities to volunteer and contents to enter. Doing something as simple as sharing the link to their site is a help to the cause.
Pointillism Tattoo Art by Kamil Czapiga
These tattoos are absolutely amazing. And I just found a new blog to add to my reading list.
Wedding Day Tattoos
I haven't posted many personal stories on this blog, but I wanted to share this special day with my readers as well as to account for the lack of posts over the last few weeks.
Two weeks ago, June 4th 2013, exactly three years after my first date with Heidi we became husband and wife. After beginning to plan a more elaborate and traditional wedding in the fall, we decided to scale things back significantly and pull the date in. Instead of choosing an arbitrary Saturday based on the availability of the wedding venue of our choice, we decided to honor our true anniversary. The wedding was small and casual. We had an absolutely perfect day for the occasion and had the time of our lives.
One of the arguments I have heard against tattoos on women is the old, "what are you going to do when you get married?" The answer is, have fun and look amazing doing it. Heidi chose a dress that showed some of her tattoos, but did not make them the center of attention. If I do say so myself, she looked stunning. I'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Tattoos and Employment
Articles about tattoos in the workplace have been popping up everywhere and I have received a number of emails from engineering students who are questioning how tattoos might affect their chances of getting a job after graduation.
Every time the topic of tattoos and employment is brought up I give the same answers, so I thought it was time to write a little more about it. Referring back to one of my earlier posts which is now well over 2 years old, Some Basic Tattoo Advice, I said this
Think about how tattoo placement will effect your possibility of future employment. Qualified or not, I doubt these guys are going to be hired any time soon.
How to Disagree – The Hierarchy of Disagreement
This is not related to tattoos at all, but very relevant to some of the comments I have been receiving on the blog lately.
Click here for a more detailed description of each of the levels of the hierarchy.
If we're all going to be disagreeing more, we should be careful to do it well. What does it mean to disagree well? Most readers can tell the difference between mere name-calling and a carefully reasoned refutation, but I think it would help to put names on the intermediate stages. So here's an attempt at a disagreement hierarchy:
DH0. Name-calling.
This is the lowest form of disagreement, and probably also the most common. We've all seen comments like this:
u r a fag!!!!!!!!!!
But it's important to realize that more articulate name-calling has just as little weight. A comment like
The author is a self-important dilettante.
is really nothing more than a pretentious version of "u r a fag."

Anyone have a holster mounted in their vehicle to transfer that CW to while driving. I don't mind moving my weapon from my holster and back again, just wondering where you mounted them and how without drilling holes, I have a 2013 wrangler sport, really don't want to cut in it yet :-)

I actually leave my ccw in my pocket and have a glovebox gun I move from the box to a holster affixed to the console by the shifter. Then it goes back when I get out... rinse repeat. I also have one under the drivers seat and one on console between seat and e-brake I tried, but they weren't ready to access enough and took to long to draw. So the holsters are still there, but I don't use them. I also keep a second gun in the glovebox for a passenger that might be in the car during any altercation.
Ive seen the holsters that mount to the dash under the steering wheel and wife suggested i get one for my 04 F150 but id rather not. Ive always got my piece on my hip, in the event i have to leave it in the truck i just tuck it under the seat. A holster under the wheel would be visible to would-be thieves from outside the truck. If i happen to be carrying my bersa itll go in the overhead bin, it fits perfectly there.

I had to dig up pics from an old post of mine and couldnt edit them in, but here they are. A word of caution regarding legality, this is definitely not texas friendly. Hard to believe that this liberal cess pool that is wa is better than texas in that oc is legal.
Yankeemarshal did a really good video on youtube. He basically took a left handed seeps holster and instead of the paddle he used the belt bracket and mounted it to the side of his console near his shifter knob. Really nice set up and still has retention. He filed down the retention block a bit so you did not have to push the locking button down to remove it just had to give it a slight tug. Worth checking out for an option that you can literally mount anywhere in your car.
I use two mounts: 1) Fobus paddle bolted to door pocket (just a simple bolt & locking nut to hold it in place, easily removed) 2) http://www.copsplus.com/prodnum1481.php bolted to the floorboard (looks like it's no longer available). Fobus ROTO Holster Universal Vehicle Mount

5 Small, light, functional and cheep.Posted: 18/07/2011Having read the other reviews I gave all the plugs a go and they all fitted fine for me. It powers my netbook just fine and adds a handy additional USB charging point for when the netbook is off or if its something I don't want talking to the PC (charging wireless PS3/360 controllers). My only two criticisms are that the plugs on the netbook side are all a bit bulky (sticking out over 15mm) and Belkin have followed everyone else in sticking a super bright blue LED on it, not good for charging overnight in a hotel unless you also want to read by it.
4 Fast and quietPosted: 16/08/2008This brown and orange monolith dose exactly what you expect, you can throw large lumps of data at it and play back high resolution video files from it with out a problem, the software is a bit of a pain but optional so you can just skip it as everything I've linked it to from XP and Vista to OSX and Linux will just mount it up. The only real criticisms come if you want to move it about a lot the base of the case feels a little flimsy but has lasted well and the unit is a bit bulky, but if you are only after an extra hard drive or the ability to move big files round your office this is a fine hard drive.
2 17c? Slightly optimistic claim.Posted: 16/08/2008Having put the unit to the test on a Core2Duo 2Ghz laptop running Rosetta@home for 100% CPU utilisation the results are as follows:Without:Core 1 56cCore 2 58cG.P.U. 55cRam 53cChipset 25cH.D.D. 34cAfter 1 hour at full speed:Core 1 54cCore 2 56cG.P.U. 52cRam 50cChipset 25cH.D.D. 31cThe temperatures took about quarter of an hour to fall with the thermal mass of the alloy laptop case then stabilised out, during this time the ambient temperature remained constant.So a 2-3c across the hot components, on a system that's marginal on cooling it may help out more but I had hoped to get a bigger drop in temperatures especially for the components not covered by the laptop's built in fan.Finally noise levels are very similar to those of the internal fan so there are unfortunately no benefits to using this in place of the laptop fan for those simply after a quieter work place.
5 Fantastic, in short the best game this millennium (so far).Posted: 25/05/2007Continuing in the tradition of the previous Elder Scrolls games Oblivion features there best looking engine yet (though if your PC is a few years old you will need to turn down some of the settings the game still looks fantastic on my laptop) along with an absolutely massive game world (almost twice the size of Morrowind). Add in enough sub plots that you can spend quite literally hundreds of hours without touching the mail quest line and some very imaginative and often amusing side quests plus a streamlined interface that makes the game more accessible to novice RPG players than anything approaching it's scale has previously been, best of all there is the total freedom to never touch a quest if you don't want to, you can make a living any number of ways from simple cave exploration to cleaver trade and alchemy (buy ingredients to make potion then sell potion). It's no surprise that it swept through not only the PC but also the Xbox 360 and PS3 charts despite the normal reluctance for console RPGs of this depth. Quite frankly I can't recommend this game enough to anyone who has the time to put into it. Not that I can recommend it to anyone who would like to see the sun ever again. Once you enter Oblivion you may never want to venture from your computer again.
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion - Shivering Isles (Expansion Pack) PC Games 4 New from £10.89 Free delivery Available used from £9.99
4 A not quite worthy add-on.Posted: 24/05/2007Now lets be totally hones with the original Oblivion this was an add-on that had a lo t live up to. Being set in the world of madness should add some extra fun but the island lacks the same imagination in plots that you find in Cyrodiil (for example the dark brotherhood's Whodunit? quest and the suicidal troll spring to mind) and occasionally feels a little rail road like. That said it adds a raft of new dungeons if you like to explore, a host of new creatures to kill and plenty of extra ingredients for the alchemic types out there. If it wasn't for the fact it's following on from something as brilliant as Oblivion this would stand out on its own, as a follow up though it feels a little lacking in the inspiration of the original. If you like the original then you should probably get this. (So The Shivering Isles' biggest problem (it's predecessor) is also it's biggest selling point (after all it's an excuse to spend more time in Oblivion).)
5 Wired Wireless I can€t recommend this enough.Posted: 24/05/2007This kit features a rechargeable battery that fit's into the back of your wireless controller where your normal battery pack sits and a USB cable to plug into the 360 or any USB port you have. As a little tip install a powered USB hub under your sofa and plug it in there, that way you can charge the controller when the 360 is off (one minor problem with plugging it into the USB ports on the 360 is that they turn off with the console) and if the battery runs low during an extended gaming session you can plug the controller back into the lead without having wires trailing across the room. Adding wires to a wireless controller may seem a backwards step but in all honesty it's not. The only real question is why this didn't ship with the system in the first place.

Dear Folks,
I was wondering if there would be much felt difference in carrying a Glock 26 in a front pants pocket holster vs. a Kahr CM 9 in same? Assuming large pockets (such as in cargo pants or shorts) would the Glock 26 carry well? I have a Superfly holster for pocket carry of my Kahr and it does well. But Kahr is just not as reliable as a Glock. (I know I should go to the local gun store and try it but thought i would pick the brain of the good folks of this forum). Any thoughts are appreciated. Any special holsters/modifications to make the Glock carry in a pocket a more pleasant experience?
Thanks in advance for your responses.

Bearsharktopus is a fictional hybrid monster consisting of shark's head, a bear's body and octopus tentacles.
On September 17th, 2009, Redditor CtrlAltDelYourFace submitted a post titled "Hey Reddit, I heard you like bears and sharks, so I made you a Bear Shark. Enjoy," which featured a photoshopped image of a bear-shark hybrid monster. Prior to being archived, the thread received over 1,850 up votes and 275 comments, many of them containing more altered versions of the image. Redditor mintyice submitted a three bear moon version of the image (shown below, middle) and CtrlAltDelYourFace submitted an updated version of the image with octopus tentacles for arms (shown below, right).
On July 2nd, 2009, the webcomic site Nedroid published an illustration of a "Bearshark" (shown below).
On September 17th, 2009, the Bearsharktopus image was reblogged on the Internet humor site The Daily What.[2] The same day, the image was highlighted on the viral content site BuzzFeed[3], where it earned the "most shared", "LOL", and "omg" badges. On September 20th, the bear-shark hybrid version was highlighted on the Internet humor site College Humor.[4] The same day, the satirical Christian conservative blog ChristWire[5] published an article titled "Crazed Evolutionists Create Bearsharktopus", which scorned genetic engineering for creating the fictional creature. On September 21st, the Internet news site BoingBoing[6] highlighted the image in a post titled "Beware the Bearsharktopus." On October 13th, 2009, GQ[9] published a post titled "Know Your Meme", which included the Bearsharktopus image accompanied by several fictional facts about the creature. On February 28th, 2010, the Internet culture blog UpRoxx[7] published a post titled "Nine Badass Hybrid Monsters That Deserve Their Own SyFy Original Movie", which ranked the Bearsharktopus as the #1 hybrid on the list. As of August 21st, 2012, the "Bearsharktopus" Facebook[8] page accumulated over 1,130 likes.

Denis Clemente Transfers to Kansas State
11/19: Daily Dribble
I'll be honest, I'd never heard of Stephen Curry before this week. The son of former NBA star Dell Curry is a freshman for the Davidson Wildcats. He wasn't even considered the best player on his high school team, but the 6-0 guard came into today's game against Missouri averaging 23 points, 7 boards, and 4 assists per game. In a close loss to the Tigers in Columbia this afternoon, he finished with 16 and 6 assists. Curry's biggest problem is turnovers, as he's more of a combo scoring guard trying to play some point and doing too much with the ball. Still, the baby faced scorer has a great stroke, a knack for getting the ball in the hoop, and the potential to be a major force in the Southern Conference with a little more experience and physical maturity.

I'm new to electric brewing, I built my system based on one of P-J's diagrams, but used a TD4 PID instead, acquiring most other equipment from Amazon. If I put the PID in manual mode, it heats the element fine. If I connect the thermocouple with blue ends on pins 7 and 10, with 8 and 9 jumpered and the red ended connector attached it displays "UUUU" which means that the upper limit of input exceeds the measured value. If I attach either of the blue ended wires from the thermocouple to 8/9, and the red to 7 or 10, it displays -403. I have set it to farenheit, and the thermocouple to Pt. Did I get a bad thermocouple? Thanks in advance for any help!
I think that is a MyPin brand PID... I have a TA7 model. I ran into two minor issues with my about two weeks ago when I set it up. First, the probe type was factory set to a "K" type, had to change it to a RTD/PT1000, but it sounds like you checked that already. Second, I had to cut off the terminals on all three probe wires, when I looked at them I saw that when they crimped on the terminals they never stripped the wires. Some to check. So much for quality control, but hey, the price was right!!
looking at the terminal ends, it seems that the wires weren't stripped, now to go back to trial and error with switching them around. I wish my voltimeter worked, time to buy a new one.
I so have a MyPin TA7. I opened mine up to look at wire colors. Red, yellow, and green on the thermocouple and I think it was pins 10-13. That doesn't help you in the slightest.
Walmart is about the only reason for open or concealed carry that I can get behind. -Randar
I'm fairly confident that the thermocouple is wired poorly on the other end as well. I switched around the wires again and still no luck. With the TA7, when you wire it correctly does it resemble the ambient temperature of the room or do you put it in autotune mode or calibrate it somehow? I noticed some fluctuation around -400F this time, where there was none before. I ordered a different thermocouple from Amazon, I may just have to measure with an external thermometer and brew in manual mode this weekend. So far I've only missed 2 weekends brewing this year, I don't want to make it a 3rd.
When I stripped the wires it worked just fine. The probe read right about room temp. then.
It showed some crazy stuff until I got it wired correctly and on the correct setting buried down in the menus. On mine, I had to jump one of the terminals. It took some research to figure that one out. Yeah, it came to ambient. I checked it at least in hot and cold water. I should go back and check calibration.
Just thought of this.... Check to make sure that there is not an offset programmed into the pid already. I am at work and don't have the instruction sheet....but I know one if the screens in the set up is for an offset
Yeah, it read -403 so I set an offset of -99, the highest the offset would go. Now it's showing -310. It states to set it in autotune when equipment changes. I suppose I could give more detail: Pins 8 and 9 jumpered according to the diagram: Diagram: B: 7 and 10, A 8/9 jumpered PV 'UUUU' blue in 7 or 10 red in 8/9 yellow in 10 or 7 PV -310 red in 7 blue in 8/9 yellow in 10 PV -310 red in 7 yellow in 8/9 blue in 10 Haven't tried: Jumper 7 and 10 instead of 8/9 . . . trying that now.
Just saw a post over on the Automated Brewing Forum called Trouble with MyPin TD4 Temp Controller. Seems they are having a similar problem. There looks like some good info on it for trouble shooting.....

Mickey Mouse Sues Donald Duck-
Our legal system at work.
| In a sign of just how stimulating it must be to work in the legal system down in Florida, some anonymous prankster has actually filed a lawsuit by Mickey Mouse against Donald Duck.
The real lawsuit against Mr. Duck was filed in Southern District Court at some point on November 18 for trademark infringement. While Mickey is being represented by Juan Abagado (you know, of Abagado & Abagado down on Candy Cane Lane), Donald chose to trust in an old friend by having Pluto serve as counsel.
The deputy clerk, Goofy, issued a summons and with any luck this whole issue will be settled out of court as it's likely going to go poorly for Donald if he shows up before the judge with no pants on again.
It's unknown who filed the case but with the attention they're now getting it seems likely this will inspire some additional creative litigation. Hopefully tomorrow we can let you know if Casper the ghost's family are filing a wrongful death suit against anyone.

I have been following xda-developers forum for a long time and I felt that I should share my first Android application here. I would really like people to try it and maybe be kind enough to return me with some positive/negative feedback. Please be gentle, since this is my first experience
My application is on the Market and it's named Flickr Earth. It especially focuses on displaying Flickr photographs according to the geographical location it was taken.
Some of the features of the app:
- Browse through photos taken near your current location
- Explore photos taken anywhere in the world by navigating through the map or searching for a target location
- Specify a geographical region (a country/continent) and search for a tag among the photos taken there
- Find exactly what you are looking for by making advanced search queries on Flickr (specify tags, date range, interestingness, etc.)
- View highly detailed information about any photo you stumble upon (e.g. tags, date taken, location on map, camera model, other photos by the same user)
- Save photos in your device or share it with your friends through e-mail, instant messengers or social networking sites
There are some screenshots attached to this post.
