I'm somewhat of a newbie to this great addictive hobby! I started learning how to fly rc planes at a local club last summer with a great bunch of guys! My instructor has over 40 years of experience with flying model planes. He has told me that I have yet to ask him a stupid question. The man has the patience of a saint. I guess my point is, don't be afraid to ask anything because there will always be someone at the field that is willing to help.
My first plane is a Sig Kadet Senior which is now under a long extensive repair. Oh she will fly again!
I just received my second plane a Hobbistar 60 MK III. Does anyone have any tips or hints I should know about with the Hobbistar 60?
I don't personally, but...
"Does anyone have any tips or hints I should know about with the Hobbistar 60?"
Recommend you use the search function, as there are a lot of folks on other threads with experience with that particular one.
Couldn't find anything recent. So I started one. Thanks Crash.
a friend of mine bought this plane 3 years ago plus a Great Planes Master caddy with all the accessories, he flew it one time with a trainer guy at the local field itscomes with the old Fm radio though. he wants to sell but wont go lower than 200 bucks. its in almost new condition. is this a good buy for 200 clams ?
Evaluate everything with a fine -tooth comb. Nit-pick & tell him your concerns.
Pull out an envelope marked $160.00" and ask him if he'll take it.
If you want to meet him half-way, that's your own personal decision.
Just make sure the items are in GREAT condition, as you've previously described.

it's hard to see,you'd better do a test before flying
I've taught 3 guys with the H-9 p-51 mustang PTS.
It's a great trainer.
it's easier to land due to no nose gear,
being a low wing doing cross wind take offs are a breeze because the wind doesn't get under the wing like on a high wing plane.
One guy I trained is still flying his 4 years later
does anyone have any tips on buying a tower trainer 40 mkii?

New to Nitro Planes
Hello, I'm a newbie to nitro planes and i just bought an old kit from a local guy in my area and i have a few questions. The kit i have is a Thunder Tiger Olympic 20L which isn't made anymore. Does anyone know how to attach the wings to the fuselage. It has two small dowel rods that go through the fuselage so do i use rubber bands to attach the wings, the instructions don't say how to attach the wings which i thought was weird. Also it says to use a .25 size engine, I was looking at getting a a O.S. 25LA ABN or a Thunder Tiger GP .28 ABN. I'm not sure which engine would be better, I want something that is reliable and easy to tune. Don't care about having a ton of speed. I was also looking at a Thunder Tiger PRO .36 but I'm not sure if it will fit, I also don't want to have to worry about ripping the wings off with having too much power.
Any help would be great.

The rubber bands will go front to back straight then front to back cross. If you do it on one side do it on the other you should have a total of 8 rubber bands when you are done. I would go with the TT GP .28. Os makes good engines, but the LA line just isn't the best that os makes, because they lack in power. TT makes great running engines that last a long time. Another thing you can do if you think you will be having alot of questions is post a new thread, because this thread isn't looked at as much anymore. Just remember that you can ask any questions you want, most of us on the forum have learned the hard way and want to make your experience a great one.

Thanks for the quick reply kylerdinger. So this plane does use rubber bands. This is my first balsa plane so i use to foamies where you just glue everything. Do i just make sure the wing is even on the fuselage and rubber band it like you said? I was reading reviews on the O.S. 25 LA and most reviews were bad as far as power like you said. Do you think the Thunder Tiger PRO .36 would be too much for this plane. I'm asking because it is only a few dollars more and also has ball bearings for the crankshaft which the Thunder Tiger GP .28 doesn't. I'm taking you advice and starting a new thread. Thanks
spend the money and get the OS 25 fx. That engine runs super fine and holds it's value should you ever sell it.
That would be the perfect combo and if you wanted to put it in a war bird there are a few 25 combat warbirds out there.

It wasn't stylish, it wasn't pretty and it sure wasn't over until the final whistle blew, but the United States exacted its revenge Tuesday night, winning 1-0 over Jamaica in a pivotal World Cup qualifying match.
Coming off an absolutely heartbreaking—and I'd say embarrassing—1-0 loss to Jamaica four days prior, the United States national team had to win and grab three points to have a legitimate shot at advancing through to the final round of CONCACAF qualifying.
The Americans looked dominant in the first half, holding the ball for more than 80 percent of the game. But shot after shot hit the woodwork.
That is until Herculez Gomez scored on a free kick in the 55th minute to put the U.S. ahead, a lead the Jamaicans would never recover from.
The United States, Jamaica and Guatemala are now all tied in their CONCACAF qualifying group with seven points each. With each having two more matches to play, it'll be incredibly important for the Americans not to sit on their laurels and stay hungry for matches against Guatemala and Antigua and Barbuda in October.
But what did Tuesday night's thrilling 1-0 victory teach Jurgen Klinsmann & Co. and what of it can they carry into next month's qualifiers?
Join me as I present the five things we learned about the U.S. men's national team and what it means concerning their chances of qualifying for Brazil in 2014.

NHL Game Night 11/3: Thrashers at LightningSubmitted by pete on November 3, 2007 - 20:50
Rock bottom.
Johan Holmqvist allowed 5 goals on 21 shots for the loss.
In fairness, the effort level has been there both in this game and the game against the Islanders. The Lightning outshot the Thrashers 34-22 and at times made Atlanta look like a junior team defensively. They could've (and probably should've) scored 8-9 goals tonight but did not finish their chances. Atlanta then capitalized on a rope-a-dope strategy that completely relied on counterattacking on the rush after surviving wave after wave of Lightning scoring chances generated both on the rush and on the forecheck.
The backchecking by the forwards tonight was suspect and some defensive details weren't handled. That needs to be minded in practice. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel, that's the good news.

Initially intended to be released in 2010, Breezy woos the ladies and finally releases this track, which will not be featured on his forthcoming Fortune on July 3. Pretty smooth. Produced by Polow Da Don. xzone
Tag: chris brown
Ouch! While partying at WIP in NYC last night, Breezy was caught in a middle of an altercation where bottles were thrown. NYPD confirms that Drake's entourage was involved. Shortly after the incident, Chris shared the experience on Twitter before deleting his tweets. How u party wit a rich nigga that hate? Lol….Throwing bottles like girls? #shameonya! Niggas is pussy. Bottles? It's nothing! Lol And I'm the singer? Niggas hiding in the bathroom bitch ass niggas! Ok! Niggas stand behind security!!!! Ok! […]
Breezy released this track last month, but has decided to add 2 Chainz and Snoop for another song release. The more the merrier. Oh yea, Fortune drops July 3rd. Sidebar: Chris Brown On 106
Under the direction of Colin Tilley, Chris Brown dozes off and finds himself in la la land for his new video. Fortune in stores July 3. Sweet dreams.
Rocking the classic Polo Snow Beach pullover, Breezy returned to the Today Show and helped roll out their summer concert series. He kicked things off with "Forever". He followed up with "Turn Up The Music" with "Yea 3x" after the jump.
Kid Ink takes fun to a whole new level by giving his track the remix treatment with Tyga and Chris Brown. Cop it on iTunes here. xzone
Breezy apparently has more than enough free music. And with Weezy by his side, they know what your girl likes on their duet above. Better cuff your chick. After the jump, Chris gets intoxicated with love over Hit-Boy's production and then pens one for his fans with a second serving.

A business group has pledged $4 million in matching grants to help seven urban Catholic schools create endowments during the 2010-11 academic year.
Business Leadership Organized for Catholic Schools (BLOCS) on Thursday announced that it had signed partnership agreements with the schools as it launches its urban endowment initiative.
The pilot program advances an approach to helping financially strapped urban parish schools that BLOCS officials have been discussing for the last few years.
Five of the schools are in Philadelphia, and one each is in Chester and Lansdowne.

Victor Lupo Shocks Junior Witter in Ontario, Canada
At Hershey Centre in Ontario, Canada, former WBC 140-pound champion Junior Witter (37-4-2, 22 KOs) was upset by unknown Victor Lupo (19-1-2, 9 KOs) in a ten round welterweight bout. Lupo put in the work to get the nod on two of the three official scorecards. On judge had it a draw 95-95, while the others two saw it 96-94 and 97-92 for Lupo. It was Witter's first bout since August 2009 and he was hoping for a big run at 147-pounds. This certainly a huge setback for Witter's career.

South Carolinas ports continue to grow marketshare, and theres even more potential due to delayed harbor deepening projects like Savannahs.
That was the message Jim Newsome, president and CEO of the S.C. State Ports Authority, delivered to some 600 people who gathered Thursday for his annual state of the ports address.
Charleston is poised to win business from rival ports that arent deep enough for the larger vessels that will be able to squeeze through the enlarged Panama Canal starting around 2015, he said.
Based on the current status and anticipated legal challenges, it is likely that no Southeastern harbor gets deepened before 2017, he said. This is five years from today. Lines cannot wait for this and will have to gravitate to a port like Charleston, which offers a significant draft advantage today.
Charlestons harbor is already 45 feet, and the authority is working on a $300 million project to deepen it to 50 feet to handle larger, heavier container ships.
Shipping lines are moving to larger post-Panamax ships that will be able to move through an expanded Panama Canal. The bigger canal is to open in 2015, but Newsome said the larger ships already are in service. They can be handled at Southeast ports but, because of channel depths, cant get in and out of the harbors at all tides.
By the time the expanded canal is open, there will be about 2,300 of the mega-ships in service, he said.
These lines are going to employ post-Panamax ships now. They are all looking for next year, he said later. They dont want to wait. Fuel is too expensive, and they want to get into a port where they can get in and get out in 15 hours.
Newsome, who last month marked his third anniversary as CEO, touted recent achievements, such as July through September marking one of the strongest quarters for container volume in four years.
The added volume is thanks in part to new routes to areas such as Australia and New Zealand.
Last month, Hamburg Sud, one of the worlds top-20 container shipping lines, pulled its only Georgia call from the Port of Savannah in favor of the Port of Charleston to serve those countries.
The port business is not a spectator sport, and we are very active in the market, wherever it is in the world, Newsome said.
Newsome has been charged with going head-to-head with regional ports to gain new customers.
The efforts come as announced plans Thursday to raise prices of services since they are too low and will need to be adjusted over time to be more in line with U.S. port market rates and the cost of capital assets.
The authority has been investing heavily in sales efforts with staffing changes and shoe-leather marketing. We are aggressively selling our port globally, he said.
Newsome noted that his chief sales executive, Paul McClintock, is back from a two-week business trip to Asia,
I just returned from visiting our carrier customers in Europe, Newsome said.
Newsomes sales mission to Europe postponed Thursday afternoons address by an hour, giving him just enough time to step off the plane and be chauffeured to the Charleston Area Convention Center.

LAIZA, KACHIN STATE—Sau Nam sits on an old bed in Laiza's small, rudimentary hospital, holding her two-year-old son Jang Ma Bawk San tight. Since Monday she has not let him out of her sight, after both of them nearly lost their lives that day.
Still in a slight state of shock from the event, Sau Nam quietly recalls how they and an older couple were warming themselves around a fire in the morning cold when a Burmese government artillery strike on Laiza town took them by surprise.
"I heard a whooshing sound of an incoming shell, grabbed my child and threw myself to the ground. Then there was a large explosion and a lot of smoke and dust," she said. "When I tried to stand up I felt great pain in my left foot; a big piece of flesh was missing. I was bleeding a lot and couldn't walk."
"My child was also bleeding a lot from an injury above his right eye, but I was very relieved to see he was not too seriously injured," Sam Nau, 38, said, adding that she later discovered that shrapnel also hit her left thigh.
The couple had not been so lucky. "Other people ran to help us, and I saw that the man who had been standing was now lying on the ground with a terrible injury to his stomach," she said. "Then another explosion happened a very short distance away and everyone became very panicked"
Nhkum Bawk Naw, a man his 50s, who was standing around the fire at the time of the explosion, was fatally injured. His wife Nang Zing Roi Ji sustained severe shrapnel wounds to her back.
The second of the shells—both of which were fired into Laiza's central Phar Kyan Kyawt quarter shortly after 8 am—exploded near a home, killing elderly church deacon Malang Yaw Htung and a 15-year-old boy named Hpauyu Doi San Awn. A 10-year-old girl Langjaw Nu Jai was seriously injured in her lower body.
Nang Zing Roi Ji and the girl were brought to Mangshe hospital in China for further treatment on Tuesday. Phar Kyan Kyawt quarter was quickly evacuated and on Monday night the Burmese army fired two more artillery rounds into the area, but no one was injured.
Sau Nam and her son, and some of the other victims are among some 15,000 internally displaced Kachin villagers who came to Laiza in recent months to escape the violence. Another 20,000 local residents are sheltering in their homes.
Sau Nam said she abandoned her farm in Na Lung, a village about 25 kilometers southwest of Laiza.
"My village is now occupied by the Burmese army, but my husband stayed there to look after our livestock. I am very worried about him because I do not trust the Burmese army soldiers who now hold the village. I fear they may kill him," she said, looking weary after her tribulations.
Fighting between the Burmese army and the Kachin Independence Army has engulfed the region since a cease-fire broke down in June 2011 and in recent weeks it has drawn closer to Laiza, terrifying residents and displaced villagers.
According to aid groups, food, water and medicine are in short supply in the town, which is located in a valley on the Burma-China border near the KIA's headquarters.
On Wednesday Laiza was calm, but many villagers were preparing to leave out of fear that indiscriminate shelling will worsen. Most are heading north to other displaced villagers' camps located along the Chinese border.
"We hear every day that the Burmese troops are making a serious offensive and coming closer and closer to Laiza," said Sam Nau, adding that after her brush with death she is determined to leave with her son, despite her injuries.
"I dare not stay in Laiza now, even though I know I can no longer feel my injured foot because of nerve damage and walking is almost impossible," she says.
The Government of Burma must use the same model for peace negotiation. We Kachin demand the peace model government applied with the WAs, Maing Lar Groups, Karens, to which the talks were done under peaceful environment, friendly and no military pressure.
With Kachins, the Government use military pressure and dialogue at the same time (Special model). The military intrusion and attacks usually committed by the Government troops on the days of the peace talk. The invitation for the peace talks come along with the heavy military operation. The Kachins will never talk under the gunpoint. US must urge the Government of Burma to use the same Peace model they used for other groups to Kachin, it will be absolutely OK. Kachins are waging defensive war, for now, even escaping war, no way to give trouble to the giant army and to intrude to the mainland Burma. The Government said that KIA disturb the troops travel to deliver the rations to the Government military posts, WHY they have the military posts in the KIA areas, isn't apparent intrusion and for the purpose to ignite the war. KIA is simple, defending their land and their peoples from the brutal foreign troops.
The ongoing war in Kachin State illustrates the fledgeling democrary in Burma and the military overwhelming in Naypyidaw. The peace process can be shattered into pieces any time.
What if all the armed ethnic groups join together and launch counter attack on the government troops, what would the Thein Sein government say to the world about its transformation?
This is the time for all the rebel organizations to band together and fight against the Burmese Army. What are you guys waiting for?
LOBBING HEAVY ARTILLERY SHELLS INTO THE MIDST of the CIVILIAN POPULATION is MOST COWARDLY and HEINOUS ACT of Min Aung Hlaing led MERCENARY (China's) BURMA ARMY of course.
KIA and ABSDF will CONTINUE to DEFEND their POSITIONS and LAIZA as well to the LAST MAN trust me.
Specifically, the ABSDF is comprised of Burmese students who left the country in the wake of the military takeover of Burma and took up armed struggle against military rule since 1988 until today.
The August 8, 1988 (8888) nationwide uprisings against the authoritarian rule of former/late dictator Ne Win is the HALL MARK of the Burmese people's STRUGGLE to RESTORE DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM and HUMAN RIGHTS in their country.
Hence, the 8888 GENERATION STUDENTS led by Min Ko Naing and his colleagues and members of the ABSDF (armed wing) of the 8888 STRUGGLE AGAINST MILITARY RULE as well SHOULD NOT GO INTO OBLIVION much less THROWN INTO THE DUSTBIN of HISTORY by Than Shwe's GENERAL RUNNING AMOK in Kachin Land today I say.
Today, LAIZA the LAST BASTION and SYMBOL of DEFIANCE AGAINST ARMED/MILITARY OPPRESSION AGAINST our ETNIC BRETHREN the Kachins and the PEOPLE of BURMA as a WHOLE as well is UNDER THREAT of INVASION by Min Aung Hlaing, CHINA CHOSEN C-in-C of the BURMA ARMY with a view to PROTECT CHINESE INTERESTS (Myitsone Dam Project, rails, roads, pipelines etc.) in Kachin State IN PLACE of SAFEGUARDING the LIVES and PROPERTY of the PEOPLE of BURMA (Kachins included).
CAPITULATION of LAIZA WOULD BE AKIN to SENDING our GLORIOUS 8888 NATIONWIDE STRUGGLE AGAINST AUTHORITARIANISM into HISTORY and OBLIVION as well of course.
WE SHOULD/WILL NOT LET THIS HAPPEN guys!
In that view and scenario I CALL ON Min Ko Naing and his 8888 GENERATION STUDENTS and ALL STUDENTS, PEOPLE and Buddhist MONKS as well in Burma to SHOW their DISGUST/DISPLEASURE on the BRUTAL WAR ONGOING in Kachin State where Min Aung Hlaing is USING BANNED WEAPONS (jet fighters, helicopter gunships, heavy artillery) on the KIA, ABSDF and the CIVIL POPULATION as well today.
And Daw Suu just saying " the war in Kachin should stop immediately" as well is NOT ENOUGH as well.
She should DEFINITELY PRESS SUBSTANTIALLY for IMMEDIATE CESSATION of ALL HOSTILITIES in Kachin State specifically the ONGOING ASSAULTS/BOMBINGS on LAIZA and KIA/ABSDF POSITIONS in the PARLIAMENT at Naypyidaw and IMMEDIATELY as well.
Also, GOING to Kachin State and MEETING with Gunn Maw and his KIA and ABSDF as well no exception would be BEST for WORKING OUT and FINDING the ANSWERS to RESOLVE the CONFLICT.before LAIZA FALLS and the 8888 Nationwide Struggle for Democracy, Freedom and Human Rights as well THROWN INTO THE DUSTBIN of HISTORY no less.
Of course Daw Suu NEEDS NO INVITATION much less BEG the QUESTION as well for that matter as IT IS A NATIONAL URGENCY/MATTER since SHE IS AN ELECTED MEMBER of PARLIAMENT, HEAD of the MAIN OPPOSITION PARTY (NLD) not to mention HEADING the RULE of LAW COMMISSION as well to INTERVENE in this MATTER and at this TIME and JUNCTURE as well when/where Min Aung Hlaing is USING EXCESSIVE FORCE and BANNED WEAPONS and UNJUSTLY as well on the ethnic Kachin people and THREATENING to COMMIT a GENOCIDE on the Kachins and Burmese (represented by ABSDF) while TAKING LAIZA which the KIA and ABSDF as well would DEFEND to the LAST MAN (believe me) just to PROTECT CHINESE COMMUNISTS' INTERESTS in Kachin State and BURMA on the long run I say.
Most specifically and importantly as well, Daw Suu, Min Ko Naing and his group MUST LEAD the PEOPLE of BURMA and SHOW their SUPPORT, SYMPATHY and SOLIDARITY with our BRETHREN Kachins in this HOUR of their DESPERATION and NEED and CALL FOR IMMEDIATE CESSATION of HOSTILITIES AGAINST the KIA and ABSDF as well in the form of NATIONWIDE MASS DEMONSTRATIONS AGAINST the ONGOING OFFENSIVES (one sided as well) by Min Aung Hlaing's HORDES in Kachin State in case Than Shwe's China picked GENERAL CHOOSES to CONTINUE HIS OFFENSIVES on Laiza of course.

- MSEDCL regional offices to start from October 2, unions not happy
NAGPUR: After a wait of months, the four regional offices of MSEDCL will start functioning from October 2. This is a major move of energy minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule to decentralize the working of the company. The four regional offices will be located at Nagpur, Pune, Kalyan and Aurangabad and will have 44 staffers. The Nagpur regional office will cover entire Vidarbha. The regional offices will have all powers except those related to policy decisions, power purchase and load shedding. Consumers will not have to go to Mumbai to get their work done. Employees too would benefit. A source in MSEDCL said that the regional offices will have to deal with development plans, employee grievances, infrastructure maintenance, technical analysis of MSEDCL data, recovery, permissions to consumer for various works and administrative work. "The detailed project report (DPR) of infrastructure schemes will be given technical approval at regional level but financial approval will be given by head office. Transfer of officers up to executive engineer level will be done by regional directors while head offices will deal with senior officers. Currently, the chief engineer has powers to deal with tenders up to Rs5 crore. The regional director will have powers to float tenders up to Rs15 crore. Bulk procurement of transformers, meters, conductors, breakers, etc will be done by head office," the source said. Prasad Reshme has been appointed as the regional director of Nagpur region. He is presently the chief engineer of Nagpur zone. Pune office will be headed by Sanjay Taksande while Aurangabad and Kalyan offices will be headed by IAS officers whose names would be announced by October 1. Bawankule had wanted to form four separate distribution companies on the lines of other states. However, due to pressure from unions he had tone down the proposal. Unions are in fact not happy with regional office system too. Sunil Jagtap, state general secretary of Subordinate Engineers' Association (SEA), claimed that there was no need for regional offices. "How many consumers have work that will be dealt at regional office level. Over 95% consumers have work at distribution centre (DC) level. Why are the number of DCs not being increased. The management turns down proposals to increase number of junior engineers and line staffers," he said adding that a regional office should have been started on pilot basis before implementing it for the whole state. Meanwhile, it is learnt that even though work of MSEDCL head office has been reduced by half, not a single staffer has been transferred from there to regional office. Instead, staffers from zonal offices have shifted to regional offices.
- Haryana imposes ESMA on agriculture officers' strike
CHANDIGARH: The Haryana government on Wednesday prohibited strike in the agriculture and farmers' welfare department under the Essential Services Maintenance Act (ESMA), for a period of six months with immediate effect. As per the order issued by the state government, the decision has been taken in view of the fact that any strike in the agriculture and farmers' welfare department would adversely affect vital agricultural activities. It will also hit services and implementation of important schemes which are essential and time-bound, weather-based activities and services to the community at large, an official of the state added. The decision to impose ESMA has come just two days after the agriculture development officers (ADOs) working with department had decided to suspend the crop cutting experiment (CCE) for government's much publicized Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) in Haryana. However, unfazed to the government's tough stand, Sushil Goyat, President of ADO association told TOI that they would continue their protest despite ESMA and are ready for any action and even arrest, if required for their demands. CCE is required to be done for all notified crops in the notified insurance units to assess the crop yield. According to the agriculture officers, in the present circumstances when Kharif crops have started reaching market, the present method of carrying CCE is lacking reliability which may affect the claims settlement of farmers in future. The ADOs are submitting that as per the guidelines of government of India, the task of CCE was supposed to be completed through private sector firms. When private companies denied due to complexity of the scheme than how it is possible for the ADOs to complete the task in a time bound manner without no resources and lack of manpower. ADOs had submitted memorandum to the state agriculture minister, OP Dhankar and have been protesting in Dhankar's home district Jhajjar in demand of withdrawing the CCE work from them but government had not responded to their demand.
- Retired IAS officer talks on start-ups at UIET
Chandigarh: Motivational speaker and former director industries in government of Haryana Vivek Attray, IAS (Retd) on Wednesday interacted with the University Institute of Engineering & Technology (UIET) students on the topic 'Start-up Challenges and Leadership'. He talked about requirements to have a successful start-up include leadership skills, innovative idea, capital investment and a good business plan. Atray said that the leader should maintain a balance in the team by involving all the team members. He/She should be able to identify the varying skills of team members and take all of them on board. This can lead to higher productivity. Market survey is quite important to start a company. Some of the start-up ideas include outsourcing the executive assistance services of CXO to some online platform, online marketing, managing social media profiles etc. Dedication of the team members and sense of ownership of the start-up is also a major factor towards success of a company. Atray also shared his experiences about the development of Rajiv Gandhi Chandigarh Technology Park, SPIC while working as Director, IT Chandigarh Administration. Six companies were initially hosted in the SPIC incubation centre with 1-5 employees. Now a days these companies have employee strength of 50-200 and a turnover of tens of crores. Learning platforms like TEDx also plays a crucial role in the early stage of learning. He motivated the students to use these platforms to learn about the best practices followed throughout the world. Role of angel investors and pitching up by the budding entrepreneurs is also an ingredient to the culture of start-ups. On this occasion, director, UIET Prof Renu Vig also mentioned about the role of skill development and entrepreneurship in the current education system. Prof Rupinder Tiwari and Prof Rakesh Tuli also participated in the discussion and motivated the students to adopt the entrepreneurship from the early start of their university education. Around 50 students and faculty members from different departments of the university participated in the interaction.
- Dengue spreads: HC summons govt officers
LUCKNOW: Taking to task the state government and Lucknow Municipal Corporation for not taking preventive measures in checking mosquito-borne diseases that have allegedly caused a high number of deaths in the city, Lucknow Bench of the high court has summoned principal secretaries medical and health and urban development on October 4. Asking them to appear in person, a bench of justice A P Sahi and justice Vijai Laxmi directed them to explain why government and municipal corporation did not comply with the court's September 19 order to constitute joint action committee for steps to suggest measures to control the epidemic and adopt preventive measures. The bench was annoyed as government officials had failed to furnish details of steps being taken to control the epidemic and provide adequate and reasonable facilities to patients in government and private hospitals. The court was also not apprised of steps being taken to clean up the city. On being asked, standing counsel Shastri Prasad Tripathi told the bench he had no instructions from the government though it was sought from officials concerned in pursuance of the court order. On hearing this, the bench issued directions for appearance of the two principal secretaries in the court to explain under what circumstances they did not comply with the order.

Crazy Cool Chevron for Your Ceiling
I checked in with Mandi Grubler over at Vintage Revivals as she always has some amazing project up her sleeve. This week was no different as she's taken to her ceiling for a little ladder work. Mandi shares a great tutorial on how to achieve the chevron look without much headache and makes the entire process look relatively painless, even though the idea of doing it all on a ladder above your head.... well just don't think about that part yet. If the look is too bold for you, consider doing a gloss vs. matte look in the same color instead of alternating colors. It could be the right amount of pop without feeling too bold. Check out all the details over at Vintage Revivals. Image: Vintage Revivals

When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
UPDATE 4:56 CST: One of our readers tipped us to this fantastic piece on Rich Harden's mechanics (with video) by Carlos Gomez at The Hardball Times. Can't recommend it enough....
I've had a little time to digest the trade since my initial reaction and a little time to actually write about it now. I don't think there's too many warm-blooded Cubs fan out there who aren't happy about the deal...other than maybe a Chicken Little or two that are never happy with anything the Cubs do.
We all know the risks. Rich Harden has all the durability of a roll of toilet paper caught in a rainstorm. He was called up half way through the 2003 season, proceeded to make 31 starts in 2004 and has battled injuries ever since. The list is too long and complicated for me to dive into, so we'll wait for the good Dr. Hecht to chime in on that side of the trade. Harden's 13 starts this year are his highest total since 2005 and he spent almost a month of this year already on the disabled list. But in those 13 starts, he's gone 5-1
with a 2.34 ERA, 10.75 K/9, 2.97 K:BB and 0.58 HR/9.
He once had a fastball that could hit 100, although he seems to have dialed it back a bit this year. He compliments that fastball with a fantastic change-up and that's pretty much it. He'll occasionally throw a slider in there, but seems to have scrapped it for the most part this season. A quick and dirty comparison with some of the best in the game using career numbers:
Not bad company to be in and let us not forget that he's still just 26 years old. He signed a four-year extension in 2005 that includes a team option of $7 million for 2009 with no buyout. But, even if the Cubs decline that team option, they would still retain his rights as he won't reach six years of service time until the 2009 season. And of course, there's little chance they wouldn't pick up the option unless his arm literally blows up this year.
The "throw-in" of Chad Gaudin though is what makes this deal go from good to great. I'll let Buster Olney take it (sidebar):
On Sunday evening -- the same night when word broke that the Brewers
had worked out a deal for CC Sabathia -- Hendry indicated to Beane for
the first time that he would make Gallagher available in a Harden deal,
but it would create a problem: If Gallagher was traded, the Cubs
wouldn't have the kind of depth they needed to deal with an injury.
"Let me call you back," Beane said.
Beane had an idea. He could fill Hendry's need for depth by
adding veteran swingman Chad Gaudin in the trade. He phoned Hendry back
on Monday night with the suggestion. "That could work," Hendry said,
and the two general managers began piecing together other parts of the
Okay, Gaudin isn't special and his stuff isn't nearly as electric as Sean Gallagher, but he is just 25 years old. His Rotoworld page seems to indicate he'll be eligible for free agency in 2011, but he entered 2008 with 3.044 (3 years and 44 days) of service time, which by my calculations makes him eligible to be a free agent after 2010. Either way, the Cubs have his rights for a few years. And for 2008, which after all is what this trade is all about, he's a good bet to equal or surpass the outputs of Gallagher or Sean Marshall. He'll start his Cubs career in the bullpen, but adds another arm that can move to the rotation if needed this year and can compete for a rotation job in subsequent years.
The Cubs didn't get off cheap though. Sean Gallagher had the makings of a top of the rotation starter. Maybe not quite ace material, but someone who could put together a couple of All-Star seasons. At just age 22, he was already getting major league hitters to look silly this season, albeit with all the consistency you'd expect of a 22-year old. Matt Murton and Eric Patterson were decent players with no place on the 2008 team and no place on the 2009 team either. I'm not sure where Patterson will fit in with the A's right now, other than to make Mark Ellis possibly available. Murton though should get a shot at left field as long as Frank Thomas is on the disabled list. Jack Cust will likely move back to a full-time DH I expect and then it'll be between Murton and Emil Brown. Josh Donaldson was the supplemental pick we received for Juan Pierre in the 2007 draft and someone our very own Arizona Phil ranked as the number one Cubs prospect to start the year. He struggled out of the gate this season in Peoria, but had started to turn things around ia bit in June. So now that Juan Pierre for Ricky Nolasco, Sergio Mitre and Reynel Pinto deal has evolved to Ricky Nolasco, Sergio Mitre, Reynel Pinto, Eric Patterson, Matt Murton, Sean Gallagher for Rich Harden and Chad Gaudin - phew, so much better!
It's the proverbial win-win trade scenario for the Cubs. The current starting staff already had the best ERA in the NL and they just added someone who would top all of them in that category. And just in case Harden does go down, the Cubs got his likely replacement in Chad Gaudin in the same deal. Yeah, they did lose some good players, some of them may even end up being great players, but none that were going to provide the impact and game-changing abilities that Rich Harden can in 2008.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
While you always hate to see potential stars get traded away, gotta love the club's aggressiveness here in going for the whole enchilada. Get ready for Sutcliffe II - this time, it's personal!
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Sutcliffe 2: Electric Bugaloo?
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
+1 to Doug! Nice reference!!
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
The list is too long and complicated for me to dive into, so we'll wait for the good Dr. Hecht to chime in on that side of the trade.
I swear to God, if his analysis involves "genetic looseness" I'll scream.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
would you prefer genetic looseness or tightness?
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
the guy pitches like a catapult with his upper body and falls/drives off the mound...he dont "fall" off the mound recklessly or anything (like van burren), though.
still, he's pretty violent with his upper body even if he's not pitching across his body.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
If Harden goes on the DL, do we get to put Sabathia in the morgue?
That's the Chicago way!
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
The way I look at it: Sabathia is Milwaukee's Zambrano, Harden is our Sheets.
Gaudin doesn't make this a great deal. He makes this a safe deal.
I won't be surprised if in the near future Gallagher is an Ace.
I will be surprised if in the near future Harden is not on the DL.
So, here's hoping he's done with DL this year, our Pennant Year. If Harden stays healthy I think we win it all.
But hey, at least the Cubs still have Matt Murton!
In case you missed it, syndicated sportswriter Mike Nadel's ironic column posted yesterday afternoon.
Murton and Patterson to the Minors
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
"Okay, Gaudin isn't special and his stuff isn't nearly as electric as Sean Gallagher, but he is just 28 years old."
Gaudin is actually only 25. Born in March of '83.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Reason #25 why I dislike our town's sportwriters;
Morrisey claims the key difference between the Sutcliffe trade and this one is that "Sutcliffe was a horse." Yeah, he was - for the rest of that season. Then he broke down in '85 and never fully regained his previous form - you cannot view trades honestly if you ignore the past history of your own stated examples. Sheesh.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
How about Phil Rogers starting a whisper campaign of "Harden's a bad guy" before he even gets to town? "Another scout said he did not view Harden as the next best pitcher available after Sabathia because of "makeup" and health questions..."
How to write a Chicago baseball column:
1. Invent straw man.
2. Make up or cherry-pick a stat.
3. Have some fun with anonymous sources.
4. Complain that everybody talks about/praises/panics about the Cubs too much.
5. Ozzie Guillen's a nut!
6. Repeat.

Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
I don't know - Gallagher could be a real star a few years down the road. Most of the scouts agreed that his stuff was "electric," and considering the kid's only 22, you'd have to assume that there's at least an equal chance he's going to be quite good soon.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Top of the rotation starter? Gallagher will never be more than a 3 on a good team.
No way, bro. He's real solid. I wouldn't be surprised to see Gallagher represent Oakland on the 2010 American League All-star team.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
I see him as a John Maine. 12 - 16 wins a year with and era of 3.80 to 4.20. Good stuff but nothing earth shattering.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Why is it that when we have discussions like this, the person who predicts success gets laughed off when the player fails, but the person who predicts failure gets crucified when the player succeeds?
Seems like it, anyway...
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun

Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
There's not a single point of comparison between the two. Not a single one.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
be interesting to see what gallagher does now that's he's not working with rothschild.
roths has been cruicial in gallagher's development and mechanics.
he really tightened up his weird/open motion and its led to a more controlled gallagher. he really helped him develop his changeup/fastball location...taking those raw tools and reigning them in. dont think he ever needed help with his curve...its part of why he was so damn promising. he had the fastball tools...he had a developing changeup, but he already had a solid secondary with his curve.
he's not done developing, but it'll be interesting to see what oakland's coaches will do with him. control of his fastball is pretty key. he's come a long way from the kid that just thought he could throw everything past everyone and destroy people's brains with his curve making them swing at something they couldn't hit.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
roths has done a lot of work with him since 05 trying to get him do a ton of things...last spring (07) the focus was control.
it doesnt show at all in his 04 numbers...or 05 numbers, really...but he was REALLY wide open with his motion and just relied on blowing everything past everyone. yes, i know its "weird" to think of a 90-93mph pitcher "blowing stuff by" guys, but we are talking about rookie league and A-ball here...and that's great stuff, especially if you already come pre-equiped with a curve.
he didnt have much of a future just doing that, though...well, not a stable one. command has always been a struggle for gallagher no matter what the numbers show.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
not that he's special with this...cuz others do it...but its not uncommon for roths to work with guys in the offseason or pre-season outside his capacity as the major league coach. it's not like he's wandering around on off-days to go to minor league camps in-season to work with guys or something...or that he was THE guy who worked with gallagher.
gallagher just speaks highly of him through the years and the work theyve done together in articles.
Re: Rothschild actually told Gallagher to go with a slider
Just a couple years ago Gallagher dropped his slider because he said throwing it messed up his curve.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
While I don't believe Beane's a genius regarding talent, I think he knows a good pitching prospect when he sees one (his track record supports that contention) - if what Hendry has been telling us is true, Beane would not discuss Harden unless Gallagher was in the mix. So has Beane been snookered, all of a sudden? I don't think so, and it would be foolhardy to suggest otherwise at this time. Give the man some credit, he's earned it.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
"Jim Callis: [ ] It amuses me that there's a lot of analysis on the blogosphere saying that the A's must know Harden is about to get hurt again, or else Billy Beane wouldn't have made the trade. Beane is a tremendous GM, but I swear, if Kenny Williams made a similar deal, he'd be getting killed for it."
If Kenny Williams made this trade I'd know he was hurt
because he has a track record of trading lemon pitchers. Mike Siratka, Freddy Garcia and Brandon McCarthy have thrown less than 160 IP combined after they were traded.
Edit: My bad it was 159 IP instead of 100. McCarthy threw 101 IP for Texas last year before going down in July and not thrown since, Garcia gave the Phillies 58 IP before needing TJS.
Re: If Kenny Williams made this trade I'd know he was hurt
Just nitpicking, but Freddy García had shoulder surgery, not Tommy John Surgery.
Re: Rotation
Yesterday they were saying Harden would start either Friday or Saturday.
Hendry on XM
Anybody else catch Hendry's interview on XM with Dibs. Said he'd been talking with Oakland about Harden for 2-3 weeks but Beane was insisting on Gallagher. Once Hendry explained to Beane that Gallagher was going to be the Cubs key middle/long relief guy that Beane then brought Gaudin into the mix to fill that role. From there the details worked themselves out rather quick. Also said that Cub's were trying for CC but simply didn't have the corner outfielder/infielder prospect that would be MLB ready next season.
Re: Hendry on XM
Wonder if Matt Wieters, had the Cubs pulled the trigger on him instead of Josh Vitters in last year's draft, would have done the trick for CC?
Wieters is a Boras guy -- ended up with a $6 million signing bonus. Does he have a no-trade clause in his contract with the Orioles?
Don't recall how much Vitters was signed for.
Harden On Espn 1000 today
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
Even if Harden were to break down, he'd probably could be brought back as a reliever. The A's did that last year and had very good early results. He eventually went back to the DL, but he seems to be healthier this year.
Either way, it's a very good deal for the Cubs. I'm going to miss Gallagher; I've been one of his biggest fans since he got drafted and I saw some Jake Peavy flashes during his brief major league Cubs career. However, you can't argue with getting Harden and Gaudin at that very low price.
Here's to a stellar Cubs career for Rich Harden.
Hear hear!
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
The best part about dealing with Oakland in this trade, if Gallagher does turn into a top shelf starting pitcher in a couple of years, the Cubs can always trade again to get him back or sign him when Oakland lets him go as a free agent!
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
True that.
the tribune cubs poll...often a source of utter stupidity and "off-the-cuff casual fan reaction" voting got something along the lines i can agree with...
Cubs get Rich Harden and Chad Gaudin from Oakland, give up Matt Murton, Eric Patterson, Sean Gallagher and minor leaguer Josh Donaldson. You like the deal?
Absolutely -- They filled a huge need and didn't give up much (10845 responses)
don't agree with the "didnt give up much" but like most cubs polls they tend to throw in a uselessly polarizing statment along with their option to pick that may or may not fully mean what you vote for...but it's the "best" one that fits.
Re: When They Pull a Knife, You Pull a Gun
on XM this afternoon, someone who covers the A's said that the "makeup" issues with Harden came from the end of last year when he was rehabbing from his shoulder strain problems and the A's wanted him to come off the DL sometime in september (supposedly on their end to showcase him for an offseason trade) and Harden didn't want to because the A's were out of contention and he didn't want to have a season end setback. Basically he was able to pitch 2-3 weeks in April and 2 weeks in June/July. That was his entire 2007 season in a nutshell.
Not sure what to make of this but it sounded like the A's would have parted with Harden as soon as his trade value was sufficient to make a reasonable deal and they were hoping it was going to be last offseason moving both Haren and Harden. Without Harden pitching at seasons end, they had to wait until mid-season this year.
Most of Harden's 2007 injury issues were called a strained right shoulder. I haven't gotten much research in yet but he didn't have a rotator cuff tear diagnosed and a strain indicates a muscle injury. He missed the season from 4-23-07 to 6-22-07 (2 months), then went back on the DL for the same problem two weeks later, ultimately being transferred to the 60 day DL on 8-22-07 which ended his season. I suspect it was just before the end of August when he and Billy Beane may have disagreed upon trying for a return in September, leading to move him to the 60 day DL. It's hard sorting out these pieces in such a delayed manner though.
Here's Harden's 2007 DL data:
October 08, 2007 Removed from 60-day DL
August 22, 2007 Transferred to 60-day DL
July 12, 2007 Placed on 15-day DL (Strained right shoulder)
July 12, 2007 Placed on 15-day DL (Strained right shoulder)
June 22, 2007 Recalled from minors rehab
June 22, 2007 Removed from 15-day DL
June 20, 2007 Sent to minors for rehabilitation
April 23, 2007 Placed on 15-day DL (Right shoulder strain)

J-Hey not finishing with an offensive onslaught.
If Geoff Blum could be a Playoff hero, there is hope still...
Giants scare me. I think you're wrong about Bumgarner, he would pitch on short rest for Game 2 and then full rest for Game 5. Cueto would go Game 1, then short rest in game 4. Add in some really tough outs in that lineup and I want nothing to do with them. With that rotation they can easily steal a series.
Cards are a tough matchup. The rivalry evens out their comparable lack of talent. And like someone said, they love HRs, which is how to beat the Cubs. The upside is that I would feel really good about Lester twice against STL.

Soler likely to return Sunday, Maddon says
Right now, I'd like to see the Mets first, Giants 2nd.
I believe that since most of the team from last years' NLCS is on the squad this year, they will really amp their game up even more to kick their ass in payback for 2015.
The Giants just do not have the depth in years past, and I think all things equal - and at Wrigley - they could handle them.
I do not want to see the Cards, period. Or their fans, media, or Joe Buck.
I don't want to play Braves in the first round. Any friggin team in the league can win 3 of 5..I hate the first round. Furthermore, I wanted to play the Marlins in 2003 and the Mets over Dodgers last year.
With that said in reverse order:
3. Cardinals: It will be devastating to lose in the first round, but even worse to their main rival. It is increased incentive for the Cardinals, especially after last year. Cards would have nothing to lose, Cubs have everything to lose.
2. Giants: Rotation in the playoffs scare me a bit, but what a lousy team.
1. Mets--because of the losses in the rotation
2. Giants--because they're not the team they were BUT they maybe have bullshit even-year magic?
3. Cardinals--because rivalry and not making the playoffs hurts them more than losing in the NLDS plus getting eliminated by them in the playoffs would make for horrible sports commentary next throughout next season.
Who's asking?
CLE/DET rained out last night already, possible rain-outs in New York (vs. Baltimore), Boston(vs. Toronto) and Philly(vs. Mets) this weekend too.
Not only games involving playoff spots that would need to be played, but any that involve home field advantage.
I got the first one! Second one I'm not even sure what even/odd betting is.
any opponent preference for NLDS?
Mets are down to 1 great pitcher instead of 4. Syndegaard may pitch Sunday which means if Mets win the WC game, he'd be set up for Game 1. There's a chance they clinch a spot by Sunday so he'd pitch the WC and then we'd probably get Colon for Game 1. They've certainly had the hottest bats over the last week and month out of the WC options.

JERUSALEM, Israel - Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu extended the tenure of Mossad chief Meir Dagan for another year.
As prime minister, Netanyahu has the authority to extend the Mossad chief's tenure without a Cabinet vote.
The Mossad (Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations) is Israel's premier counter-terrorism intelligence agency.
The son of Holocaust survivors, the 64-year-old retired major-general - who served for 32 years in the IDF - came on board as chief in 2002.
In the first seven years of his tenure, Dagan doubled the staff at the agency's headquarters north of Tel Aviv.
"This is an excellent Mossad chief, and he has an excellent team," Netanyahu said at Sunday's Cabinet meeting.
Dagan has been at the forefront of Israeli intelligence assessments of the Iranian nuclear program.
"If there is one service that has brought us close to knowing what's really going on in Iran, it is Mossad," one recently retired Israeli intelligence official said.
Dagan's tenure, which has been extended twice in the past, now goes to the end of 2010.
During his military career, Dagan received the IDF's Medal of Courage. He also served as the director of Israel's Counter-Terrorism Bureau.

Understanding Lenses: Part II – A Guide to Canon Normal & Telephoto Lenses
Lens choice is one of the most important aesthetic decisions that we make as photographers. There are two stages in lens selection. The first is deciding which lens (or lenses) to buy. With over 60 current Canon lenses to chose from (plus those made by third party manufacturers) that can be confusing enough.
The second is getting the best out of the lenses that you own. As you get to know your lenses, and understand the effect of focal length and aperture on the aesthetics of the photo, you will learn how to use them to create dramatic, eye-catching images.
In Understanding Lenses: Part I I looked at wide-angle and kit lenses. Understanding Lenses: Part II is the follow up and explores Canon's range of normal, short telephoto and super telephoto lenses.
The eBook is split into two sections. The first looks at the artistic side of using normal and telephoto lenses. It's a guide to using them to help you create beautiful portraits, landscape, travel and close-up images.
The second part is a buying guide. It gives you an overview of Canon's current lens range, and explains the differences between the various models. Whether your budget is £100 or £11,000 there is a Canon lens for you – and this section helps you make wise buying decisions and understand the technology behind the terms that Canon uses to describe its lenses.
