So many, mostly republicans are pushing for voter ID. There is no rule in this country to have a picture ID, but every citizen does have the right to vote. I would consider it a fundamental conservative belief that we should try to limit rule/regs if not necessary and If you are going to require something like this I would think there should be good reason. However there doesn't seem to be any.
I can see no other real reason to push this except to deter some voters, mainly minority/lower income/urban voters all who tend to be more liberal. If nothing else this is a bad PR move on the part of conservatives.

U-Haul asks for patience with reservations, rentals
Biggest moving day of year in Madison is next week
MADISON, Wis. - One of the largest moving companies in Madison is asking for patience from families and students leading up to the biggest moving day of the year next week.
U-Haul said it is working with customers to ensure they will have options "in the face of the most chaotic moving environment (with the exception of a natural disaster)."
Most leases near the UW-Madison campus wrap up on Aug. 14, with new ones beginning on Aug. 15, creating a situation where customers may not be given the vehicle they'd reserved and for the duration that they reserved it.
If that does happen, Tom Hodel, the president of U-Haul of West Wisconsin, said the company will pay the customer $50 and do our best to find an alternative solution.
"It is possible, especially if a customer does not return equipment on-time and we are put in a position of not having what a customer needs when we agreed to have it for them," Hodel wrote in a statement emailed to News3.
Jeffrey Lynn had that happen to him at the end of July as he was moving from one apartment to another in Madison. He reserved a U-Haul truck online for 48 hours only to show up on July 31 and find out his reservation had been changed to eight hours. He had to rent a second vehicle for the second day of his move, incurring further cost and frustration.
"Why was I able to reserve it online for two days and no one told me that it changed?" Lynn said. "The end of the line was, 'We can't help you.'"
Lynn said his advice to students moving next week is simple.
"Double-check your reservation," he said. "Even if you got a confirmation, better call them back, because I had a confirmation and it didn't mean anything."
Hodel was critical of the situation and said U-Haul was doing its best to respond.
"The real story here is the sheer chaos that is created by the school and local housing -- a small group of people who inconvenience an entire community," he wrote. "U-Haul would rather not handle it this way."
The company is encouraging its customers to complete their moves in six hours so as to accommodate as many people as possible.U-Haul asking for patience with reservations, rentals

BELDEN – The conditions were nasty – steady drizzle, a rain-soaked course – but nothing could put a damper on Tupelo High School's day.
The Golden Wave, behind the steady play of Austin Rose, won its sixth straight state championship in high school golf Thursday at the Tupelo Country Club, capturing the MHSAA Class 6A title.
Tupelo's two-day team total was 296-299 – 595. Madison Central was 28 strokes back at 316-307 – 623. Oak Grove was third at 327-324 – 651.
Rose, a junior, shot a 66-68 for a two-day total of 10-under-par 134 to capture state medalist honors. Teammate Hayden Buckley was third overall with a 70-71 – 142.
"The six in a row is pretty solid," Rose said. "I'm glad to put a (medalist) victory up, too. That's the best I've ever played in a two-day tournament."
DeSoto Central's Braden Thornberry was second overall with a 70-69 – 139.
"What Austin did was awesome," Tupelo golfer Miles Johnson said. "We can't thank him enough. He put the team on his back this tournament."
Also for Tupelo, Kirk Reeder recorded a 79-81 – 160, Johnson 84-78 – 162 and Blake Harris 81-85 – 166.
Rose took his score to 11-under-par, but bogeyed on No. 18 to finish his round. He recorded five birdies on the front nine to post a 31.
"What Austin did on back-to-back days is impressive," Tupelo coach Mark Enis said. "He jumped out early Wednesday then kept the pedal to the metal."
Rose sank a 30-footer for birdie on No. 8 to go to 5-under for the day and 11-under for the tournament.
Moments later, however, he missed about a 10-foot putt for birdie.
He recorded eight straight pars on the back before closing with a three-putt on No. 18. By that time, the win was his.
proud papa
Jim Rose, the former TCC golf professional, was all smiles following his son's closing round.
"It was awesome," he said. "It was fun to watch him. He's had the tools. It's been a thrill to see him mature and play.
"He was striking the ball phenomenal yesterday. He didn't hit it as well today, but he made his putts. That's what you have to do … and for two days, he did that."

2015 MustangI really like that look. It looks Mustang but looks nice and modern too.
I'm not too interested since the 2013 looks great. In two years when the design gets old I might actually get excited.

I agree Bad, the 2013 looks great. Mine concern when I heard Global Mustang is that it would lose some American style or Mustang style. Those renderings keep that style which I like.
That wheelbase looks way to long. Front looks passable, but that backhalf needs some terrible help! Proportions don't make it look like a good coupe at all.

looks pretty good. i liked the old rendering that pooped up a few weeks ago better though. i think the independent rear side window needs to be eliminated and incorporated into the main side glass like on the sn95 mustang.

When Ford said the Mustang would have some Evos influence, they didn't mean it would literally have an Evos front end grafted on a current Mustang back end.

Eh, I don't like the front, the current mustang has that long nose this looks like a V6 is under the hood driving the front wheels.

HOUSE ROCKERS Coma Coma.
75orLess Records strikes again with another stoner-rock scorcher in Chateau Rex, courtesy of Coma Coma. While the players remain the same — guitarist Steve Demers, drummer Dan Ulmschneider, and bassist/vocalist Eric Sampson — the East Bay trio have stepped up their game, and their official full-length debut will surely go down as one of the year's best rock albums on the local front, as the Warren-based label continues to crank out excellent product ranging from Mark Cutler to the Jesse Minute.
For Coma Coma, it really is all about the music — to the point that obtaining any helpful press info, pics, or band updates is scarce at best. And while their past two releases are available at 75orLessRecords.com (debut EP Does Your Remote Control Have a Remote Control? and Live at Jake's), a dormant MySpace page is about all you'll find on these guys. While sitting in on the Six Star General recording session late last year, I recall Summing Point Studios engineer (and diePods bassist) Scott Rancourt referring to Coma's then-work in progress: "The new Coma Coma record is gonna be a monster," were his exact words. When I spoke with 75orLess ringleader Mark MacDougall following a recent Six Star show, all he could offer was, "I haven't heard anything from it, but I'm just as curious as anyone to check out the final mix."
Having 75orLess as an all-encompassing support system proves highly beneficial for Coma Coma, with Jeremy Withers (of electro-duo the Inclined) using his graphic design skills for the artwork (inspired by Hüsker Dü's Zen Arcade); he accurately summed up Coma Coma's sound as "modern influences mixed with SST-era post-punk and almost psychedelic solos." As for the album release party next week, Coma Coma will perform Chateau Rex in its entirety, followed by an all-star 75orLess lineup joining Sampson for a set of covers, a Coma Coma specialty that usually closes out their live set. Past standouts include Radiohead's "Just," Ween, and Built to Spill, as well as a sick version of Pavement's "In the Mouth a Desert" (I've since been pushing for an Archers of Loaf cover).
When I finally tracked down Sampson (after he pulled a no-show at their Swansea practice space), a smirk of satisfaction crept from his grizzly-bearded mug as he handed me the disc.
"It's about time," we said simultaneously.
Indeed, Chateau Rex is worth the wait and then some. With influences like Super Furry Animals and the Flaming Lips (along with Sampson's staff-thumping, flannel-sporting allegiance to Mike Watt), Coma Coma sounds right at home on Chateau Rex. "Fourth of July" and "Cheap Disguise," both written a few years back (first appearing on Live at Jake's), provide a subtle wallop to open the disc. True to form, Coma Coma have honed the majority of the dozen tracks here through their live shows. Ulmschneider, now also full-time drummer for Six Star General and a frequent fill-in with the Propellers, is the busiest timekeeper on the live circuit, and his pinpoint fills bolster Sampson's rugged bass lines. As for guitarist Demers, this dude is operating on an otherworldly level; skidding riffs careen through "On a Clear Day" and the meaty "Metaphysical Mistake." His skewed chords and gnarled fuzz provide a literal ripple effect on Chateau, the jagged squalls expertly chopping through the nimble rhythm section. "I still can't remember why I'm in the parking lot getting high," Sampson says on "Cheap Disguise." Don't let the unshaven mug and wrinkled flannel fool you — Sampson and his bandmates take pride in their unique slacker-math rock leanings, and Chateau Rex is a four-star host. "When you got, you got it," Sampson declares on "Argyle Satellite," and indeed they do.

|Inflatable Watercraft Rafts, pontoon boats, kickboats, etc.
|Topic Review (Newest First)
A 5hp engine on that boat would make it fly. I'd highly suggest an electricc kicker though, say a 48lb thrust. But if you do go with a gas 5hp, Don't go with a side motormount. You'll really cavitate that boat. You'll want that kicker to be as DEAD center as possible. With a small electric you won't have the push a gas kicker has. I know my sled goes along pretty good with the original 4/5 horse that came with it. Can only imagiine what it'd do on a 9' outcast.
You'll also have to consider weight. You'll need an external gas tank if you want to run long distances. The weight of motor plus weight of gascan will definitely max out your boat. Problem with aan electric kickker is you don't have that much power if you use it as your main ssource of power.
I'd almost suggest you switch over to a pram vs pontoon boat. Alot of prams are light (not the 40lb light of a pontoon boat) and are a bit more forgiving with a motor. Just an option, and certain maaks of pram can hiit whitewater, or at least take you anywhere your outcast goes.
|steelheader69, I was thinking of a 5hp for getting me across and back on my home waters of the upper columbia. I am looking to avoid drifting and just getting back and forth so as to avoid all of the hassles involved in drifting solo. What do you think?
I totally missed this post
Yes, most have adaptors for boats to put a kicker on. They also have a cool little float that you put your battery in so you don't weigh down your boat with a battery. It depends on what type of motor you want to put on it?
Steelie is right. Most states say if you put ANY sort of motor on the boat, you have to license it. Was thinking of putting a small kicker on my 16' cat, but not going to pay a license on my cat as well, then have to put vessel #'s on it as well. Forget that.
I'll warn you. If by chance you want to "go for the gusto" and really put a big motor on it (say a 5-10 horse gas kicker or a HEAVY thrust electric) to watch out. These boats aren't meant to push water. Go heavy enough thrustwise and your boat with cavitate. Did some experiments years ago and found out first hand. Put my 9.9 on my 16' for tooling around lakes. Man, open that baby up and the boat fealt like I was driving on rocks. You really have to have everything centered just right and balanced perfect if you want some power behind you. If you just want a small added assist to your boat, then you'll be ok.
Lust for Thrust!
You will find that most pontoon builders have an adapter for you pontoon. You can purchase it seperate and add the motor. They work real good, but in most states, if you put a motor on it, you will have to register it as well!
|old man
I've never done it but I saw it done. Saw a person on a small lake the other day And he was tooling right along. I've never seen an electric motor push any thing so fast.
I would think that the weight of the battery and motor would be just a little much,as he was sitting just a little low in the water. His pontoons were almost under water.
motor on pontoons
Has anyone tried a motor on their pontoon boat? Just wondering how it worked out and what size motor was used. I have a pac 9000 and if anyone has any sugestions they would be greatlly apreciated.

The engine has a lot of moving parts that need to be kept lubricated by the engine oil, without which the parts will damage each other. The oil pan and the gaskets are located under the car and are attached to the bottom of the engine. It is common for the gaskets to wear out and start leaking oil. You will see oil on the ground beneath your car. If the oil is leaking, you may see an engine oil warning light in the dashboard. If you continue to drive your car without the proper amount of oil, you will risk severe damage to the engine.

Warning signs, tips for surviving bitter cold
Careless homeowners can have serious issues in spring
MADISON, Wis. - Wisconsin's Division of Emergency Management wants to make sure that people stay safe in this bitter cold.
The agency has put out a few tips to follow over the next few days.
Since frostbite can occur after being outside less than 30 minutes, if you notice a loss of feeling and a white, pale appearance on your fingers, nose, or toes, get medical help.
Make sure you have a car survival kit, with water, food, a flashlight, and battery charger.
And don't forget about your pets: Check out their paws in case they step in salt. And don't keep them outside for long.
As the temperatures plunge, homeowners need to remember to follow a few simple steps.
Especially if they don't want to have a flooded mess come next spring.
Specifically, now is the time to make sure faucets that may be near an outside wall don't freeze over this week.18209628
Homeowners would rather see professionals like Curt Johnson of Action Plumbing, Heating, A/C, and Electric now than in the spring.
"The water in here turned to ice and expanded, and cracked the pipe," said Johnson, recalling a recent homeowners' nightmare. "So then in the spring, when this goes to get turned on, the water just floods the basement."
Johnson said it's the most common problem he is called on to fix.
"Every spring we probably change over a hundred of them," said Johnson.
But homeowners don't have to take a visit from someone like Johnson for granted: It's a problem that can be prevented relatively easily.
Most have probably put their garden hoses away for the winter.
But bitterly cold wind can still get in and split the pipe.
Johnson said you need to shut off the value in your basement too.
"That silcock goes outside, that valve should be shut off right there," said Johnson.
Moving from water to air, with the cold that's coming to southern Wisconsin over the next couple of days, your first move might be to turn the thermostat up.
But if there's no heat coming out of your vents, the problem might be your furnace.
"We're really looking for the filter to see if it's dirty or not," said Johnson about normal furnace maintenance.
If you've got furnace filters, replace them monthly.
Something else homeowners can do: make sure that the pipe bringing fresh air from outside so your furnace can run is clear.
"If we get a lot of snow and the wind blows and the drift comes up against the house and plugs these off, your furnace goes off," said Johnson.
But what's the most telling sign that you have a problem with your heating?
"House gets cold," laughs Johnson.
Oh, and one other thing: Johnson says to find your main water shut-off.
If you're going away for the weekend, just turn it off.
That prevents pipes from freezing.
And if you're worried about a particular pipe near an outside wall, just keep water running from it at a very slow pace.
The analogy is, lakes freeze but rivers don't, so best to keep the water moving.
"Water flowing through the pipes is not going to freeze as easy," suggests Johnson.
Homeowners with faucets and pipes below that are close to an outside wall, should just open up the cabinet.
It lets the warm air from your home into that cabinet space and keeps those pipes warmer.
And if you think a pipe might be frozen, don't do anything drastic.
Just call the experts.

Today, I will have a say good-bye to a very good friend and family member, our old pomeranian. When we got her back in 1997 when she was 4 months old I though this day would never come. I once read exceptional Poms live to be 16, she is that now and that was a understatement. Best and longest lived dog I ever had. She has a had a good run.
We love you and will miss you Casey.
ETA: Just back from having her put down. Thanks for the well wishes. I dont think I can say anything else right now.

Given that everyone in my family loves Pepperidge Farm Goldfish snacks, when I heard about their new Goldfish Puffs product and had a chance to try some as part of a sponsored post for Collective Bias®, I could hardly pass up the opportunity. So, my youngest and I turned a gold-fishing trip to Target into an opportunity for a little dad-daughter bonding. But sponsored or not, all of the opinions in this post (and everything else I write) are 100% my own.
Ever since my oldest (now 23) was about two years old, Goldfish Snacks have been a staple around the house. They satisfied two basic requirements: they taste good (which made them ideal for bribery) and are easy to clean up (actually, since the dog loved them too, cleanup rarely required any human involvement).
Over the years, we ventured beyond the classic and tried the rainbow Goldfish and what seems like dozens of different flavors. As my oldest two grew, those little, yellow snacks remained popular after-school snacks, in part because the little one, now 10, wanted them for every meal. They swam in her cereal bowl, got frozen into Popsicles, were clues for treasure hunts, and even made occasional appearances as birthday cake decorations.
Almost by accident, we discovered the next-gen Goldfish: Goldfish Puffs. Honestly, we were a little skeptical. It seemed like one of those if-it-ain't-broke-don't-fix-it kinds of things. But in my family, skepticism is often defeated by curiosity. And this was one of those times. We found a great deal at Target, but apparently, a lot of other people had the same idea: the cupboard was bare. Not ones to give up, we hopped back on the freeway for a few miles and found those Puffs at another Target store.
Sadly, I'd developed some gluten issues so I was especially happy when I discovered that the Puffs are gluten-free. I'm not sure I understand how, exactly, that's possible, but I'm thrilled to be back in the Goldfish saddle with Puffs.

The recently released Defense Strategic Guidance delicately points to a subtle policy shift away from U.S. security and interests in Europe. But Western economies and capabilities are more inextricably linked than ever. Other than a commentary by The Economist on January 14 suggesting U.S. neglect of Europe, few if any writers or publications noticed the mixed messages in the strategic document regarding the future of the U.S. military's relationship with its European counterparts.
The mixed messages begin with a couple of sentences expressing America's wholehearted support of Europe: "Europe is our principal partner in seeking global and economic security, and will remain so for the foreseeable future," and "The United States has enduring interests in supporting peace and prosperity in Europe as well as bolstering the strength and vitality of NATO, which is critical to the security of Europe and beyond."
Shortly thereafter, however, are statements implying a U.S. withdrawal from the Continent: "Most European countries are now producers of security rather than consumers of it," and "This has created a strategic opportunity to rebalance the U.S. military investment in Europe." What does this mean? Is it a polite way to part company with close allies of over sixty years? Here is one more: "We will also work with NATO allies to develop a 'Smart Defense' approach to pool, share, and specialize capabilities as needed to meet 21st century challenges."

- Description
Cross-sectioned "pillow" (soft sediment deformation) of sandstone with internal (deformed) laminations from Corridor H, West Virginia. Devonian Hampshire Formation. The sample was collected at the same site as this outcrop GigaPan:
The sand was deposited atop squishy mud, then sagged downward in a series of curved linear droops. These weather out positively (i.e., at the expense of the shale above and below) and occasionally fall out where they can be collected by enterprising geologists. This sample was cut (by rock saw) perpendicular to the axis of the sag, and then polished.

The good news: Walden Media (The Chronicles of Narnia) wants to make video-game-turned-childhood-TV-show Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego? into a movie! The bad news: Jennifer Lopez might star in it. Here's the logline:
When the ACME agency's greatest detective Carmen Sandiego becomes the world's greatest thief, it's up to her former partner to follow her clues and track her down. Their cat-and-mouse game leads the partner to confront a greater mystery: Is Carmen really a thief or a hero?
Although Walden says she's currently only attached to produce, we're scared that J.Lo will get her hands on the project. So to combat that rumor, we've come up with seven Latina actresses who we think would be much better fits for Carmen—whether it's attitude, spryness for chase scenes, or the ability to wear a red trenchcoat.
For the most part, I've tried to find photos of these ladies in red or yellow, to get you really envisioning them as Carmen.

Hisanori Maeda to Retire at Fujiwara Festival on August 28th
- Written by Dave Walsh
August 28th will mark the second It's Showtime Japan event, this time a co-promotion with the Fujiwara Festival. However, its biggest impact on the kickboxing world will be Hisanori Maeda's retirement ceremony. Maeda was the 20th AJKF Featherweight Champion and has faced nearly every notable name at 60-63kg in Japan. During his time in AJKF, he faced Naoki Ishikawa, Masahiro Yamamoto, Genki Yamamoto, Hiromasa Masuda, Haruaki Otsuki, Kanongsuk and Ryuji Kajiwara. Though he was unsuccessful against many of them, he managed to go 2-1-1 against Naoki Ishikawa, with their final encounter being a draw for the AJKF Super Featherweight Championship at the last AJKF show.
After AJKF disbanded, he entered the 2009 Krush Lightweight tournament, defeating Fire Harada by knockout in the opening round of the tournament, but losing to Genki Yamamoto in the quarterfinals. He went on to defeat Daisuke Uematsu in a super fight at the finals of the Krush tournament. However, he finished out his career going 1-4 in 2010, losing to TURBΦ and Rashata in that stretch.
Maeda is just one of the many AJKF fighters who has struggled to find success in the post-AJKF Japanese scene and his retirement signifies another step in this changing of the guard in the Japanese scene which has seen many K-1 Koshien fighters find success in both K-1 and Krush. AJKF fighters may have a resurgence in the near future, but Hisanori Maeda will not be one of them.

Am I overfeeding?
I have 2 baby oscars and 2 baby bgk fish in my tank. No worries they are in a big enough tank where they'll be happy as adults with lots of hiding places and get along fine.
I feed them bloodworms twice a day and just break off a piece and defrost it. There is always some leftover on the bottom that is gone by the next time I feed them. I heard that overfeeding is worse than underfeeding so I just want to make sure i'm not doing that. Also, should I be feeding my oscars something else as well?
I had taken in an oscar from a petsmart that had and survived a fin disease so they couldn't sell him, he was about 9 inches and 5 years old when I got him and lived for 5 more years, and I only fed him the hikari pellets, but i'm not using those this time because they make the water so dirty so quickly and that's bad for the bgk.
Welcome to the forum. You are feeding them just right; lightly. I wish more did.
You might want to add a quality pelleted food (Hikari, New Life Spectrum, Dainichi) to the menu of the Oscars. I believe my how-to culture primer is stickied in the food forum. Among other creatures, there is a section with several types of worm you can culture that your black ghost knifes would deeply enjoy.
DaveWhen a finger points to the moon, the imbecile looks at the finger.
Omnia mutantur nihil interit.
The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go
You're feeding practices are fine. Feeding twice a day lightly isn't going to cause any problems. I would say this is more preferred for juvenile Oscars. The overfeeding problems come from a tank's inability to handle the extra and unnecessary waste left in the water. With that being said, if your tank filtration can handle large feedings and you upkeep the maintenance on the tank and filtration then feed away - your fish would be grateful I'm sure You know your tank better than anyone, so if you're feeding lightly twice a day and it's working, then I would keep to that.
I would say switch to a stable pellet diet - I use Hikari Gold. It'll provide your fish with the nutrients it needs to thrive. I would save the meatier foods as a treat - perhaps once or twice a week.
Did you have a BGK with your other Oscar? I don't directly feed my BGK too often. Usually what happens is I'll feed the Oscar and company and whatever scraps fall to the bottom are picked up by either a Green Phantom or Bristlenose pleco along with my BGK. The extra waste caused by pellet feedings has been removed from my tank - just a thought. If you were having this problem before perhaps now it won't be so bad with the two BGK.
Best of luck with the fishes - and keep us posted on how those two BGKs interact. Some people are able to keep more than one in a single tank - I was not one of those people...220g South American

This is my first time owning bgk, i've had them about a month and when I first put them in together they got into a little fight once, but get along wonderfully ever since. One has grown at a much faster rate and is now double the size of my other but so far everyone is happy. I will try the pellets, I am just worried the bgk wont eat them since all they have ever had are the blood worms, that's at least what the lady at the pet store who was feeding them with a turkey baster told me. Thank you both for the help!
Oscars are also noted for Hole in the Head without proper nutrition. I'd also give them a good pellet and less meat. Hikari Gold as Rollins suggested is a good pellet.
I would actually feed a 2-3 different types of dried food, and add some frozen and fresh foods for variety. A good staple pellet is the core for any cichlid's diet, this should then be followed up with something like veggie sticks or carnivore preparation. Some good frozen foods are jumbo bloodworms and krill. For fresh you can pick up some seafood from your grocer and cut it into bite size pieces for your fish, I like to shove some thawed spinach inside these pieces for an extra dose of veggies.
While the fish are growing feeding 2 small meals per day is fine, once your fish are adult once per day or every other day is fine. I would also not recommend keeping 2 knives in the same tank, they can become very territorial with each other as they age. If your tank is not a minimum of a 6ft 125G...it is far too small.
In addition to what Hobbs stated, Oscars are very prone to HITH. You can avoid this with good water quality and nutrition. Soaking their food once or twice per week in a product called Selcon can actually ward off HITH, Selcon contains high levels of vitamin C and Omega 3s. Both of which have been shown to help prevent this ailment.3x75 gallons|2x55 gallons|2x50 gallons|3x40 gallons|1x29 gallon|1x10 gallon
Great information, Jenn, and why your Oscar is a shining example of awesome care. He eats better than I do.

Thank you for all the help! I went and got the pellets and the stuff to soak it in and gave it to them for their night time feeding and they loved it.
Also, they are in a 150 gallon with the bgk.
0Originally Posted by Bkay2008
After reading this I feel as though I am over feeding my albino longfin oscar... I feed him premium pellats (10-20 depending) twice a day (hand feed lol) and blood worms twice a week. Every morning and night he is waiting at the top of the tank for his food and eats it all. Am I feeding him too much? he is fully grown (32cm).

Celebrating 40 Years of Making the Ocean Matter
Posted On September 7, 2012 by Janis Searles Jones
Today Ocean Conservancy turns 40 years old. That's quite the milestone when you think about how we got started. (View a slideshow of our history.)
Founded in the midst of the nascent environmental movement in 1972, Ocean Conservancy began as a small organization focused on securing grants for environmental educators. Now we are recognized as a leader in empowering citizens to take action on behalf of the ocean.
For 40 years, Ocean Conservancy has found success by relying upon science to inform our work and partnering with unexpected allies ranging from fishing communities to major businesses to a global network of volunteers. However, there is still much work to be done.

Jahlil Okafor, three other top five recruits to commit Friday
Four of the nation's top five recruits (according to Rivals.com) in the class of 2014 are set to announce their college commitments on Friday. Two of the players – center Jahlil Okafor of Chicago and point guard Tyus Jones, who is from Minnesota – are expected to choose the same school. Power forward Cliff Alexander and small forward Stanley Johnson are not involved in any so-called "package deals," but their decisions, like those of Okafor and Jones, carry big implications for next season's national championship picture. All four players are scheduled to announce their decisions on an ESPNU special at 4 p.m. ET.
Here is some background information, video highlights and listed favorites for each player to get you prepared for a huge day on the college basketball recruiting calendar.
Jahlil Okafor
Position: Center
High school: Whitney Young; Chicago
Rivals rank: 1
Favorites: Duke, Kansas
Many people were surprised in May when 2013's No. 1 player, Andrew Wiggins, chose Kansas over North Carolina, Kentucky and Florida State. If Okafor picks the Jayhawks if would be just as surprising. What would be truly shocking, based on everything Okafor has said throughout his recruitment, is if he chooses a different school than Jones. Here's what Jones told Sports Illustrated's Seth Davis this summer about their presumed package deal: "We look for the same things, the same coaching styles and philosophies. We both like the same type of stuff. That's why we figure we want to go on this journey together and try to make something special happen in college." Jones seems to be leaning towards Duke, so if Okafor sticks to his commitment to play with Jones, the Blue Devils will benefit from Okafor's presence in the post. But after Wiggins' somewhat unexpected decision last year, it would be foolish to count out Kansas coach Bill Self.
Stanley Johnson
Position: Small forward
High school: Mater Dei; Santa Ana, Calif.
Rank: 3
Favorites: Kentucky, Arizona, USC
During the past four years, Arizona has signed four players from the Oakland Soldiers AAU program: junior guard Nick Johnson, since-departed guard Josiah Turner, sophomore forward Brandon Ashley and freshman forward Aaron Gordon. That list is a good reason to be bullish on Arizona's chances of hearing its name announced at Johnson's announcement ceremony. There's also the matter of winning, and at Arizona – where Sean Miller has his program positioned to remain atop the Pac-12 for years to come – an elite player like Johnson would have the opportunity to compete for conference -- and possibly national -- titles. Kentucky is still in play, and it's never smart to dismiss coach John Calipari's chances of landing a top recruit. USC offers Johnson the opportunity to stay close to home and play in coach Andy Enfield's up-tempo system. Any of these schools would make sense for Johnson, but neither Kentucky nor USC seem as good a fit as Arizona.
Cliff Alexander
Position: Power forward
High school: Curie Metropolitan; Chicago
Rank: 4
Favorites: DePaul, Illinois, Kansas
It has been assumed that Alexander would choose Kansas, but it appears Illinois is making a late push for the big man. Alexander's high school coach Mike Oliver told SNY.tv last week he believed Bill Self was focusing on Okafor, and that the Kansas coach has visited Chicago in recent weeks without meeting with Alexander. "He was there to visit Jahlil," Oliver said. At Illinois, Alexander would be joining a 2014 recruiting class currently ranked 18th in the country by Scout. He would also be able to play close to home, with a team riding an upward trajectory under coach John Groce. Kansas is an attractive option for obvious reasons, but it should be noted that Alexander's girlfriend, Caelynn Manning-Allen, plays for the Jayhawks women's team. And if Okafor picks Duke, as expected, that could make Alexander more likely to choose Kansas.
Tyus Jones
Position: Point guard
High school: Apple Valley; Apple Valley, Minn.
Rank: 5
Favorites: Kansas, Duke
On his blog for USA Today, Jones recently broke down the schools he is considering. Here's what he had to say about Duke, the presumed leader to secure Jones' commitment Friday. "With Duke it's the opportunity to play for Coach K and the style that they play there," he wrote. "I love the way they use their guards, and I feel like I can make an impact right away. Plus they have a great fan base." The Blue Devils offered Jones a scholarship the summer before his sophomore year, and he has since remained their priority at point guard for the 2014 class. Jones seems like a perfect fit for Duke. Of all the players on this list, none seems as easy to predict as Jones. The question is, if Jones picks Duke, is Okafor guaranteed to join him?

Anyone seen these? Another ANH han scuplt, when we're already getting one soon, but he looks cool. I think the Chewie needs to be taller and thinner. Chewies head sculpt is awesome, though.

I haven't seen this, but I would LOVE to!!! Do you have a link or anything you can post for us?
what the hell, why does that link I posted take me to ascension web or some crap? Well anyway, you all know what site I was talking about.
.............................words cannot contain the excitment I'm feeling right now! I actually expected these to simply be rehashes of the DSE Han and Mechanic Chewie, with altered poses. I don't care if it's just another ANH Han, this looks incredible. Chewie's face is just awesome!
And the news that they'll be in retro-style packages, oh wow, somebody pinch me I must be dreaming.
Civilized men are more discourteous than savages because they know they can be impolite without having their skulls split. - Robert E. Howard
That Han looks to be molded after the pre-production costume test shots when harrison's hair was shorter than it was in the movie. Looks to be an okay sculpt though. Chewie looks like he's doing something elementary...... And he's so bulky! Shame his bandolier is molded on. They put a stap on the bowcaster but not on the wookie that's screwed...
They look pretty good so far Hopefully the other 2 sets are just as cool
Plus vintage style boxes...drool
''You fool, my reach is far greater than the Jedi.Only a Sith can wield the force over such a great distance.'' - Darth Sidious
All I could think after seeing that side shot was "huh huh, Chewie's takin' a dump". Actually, I also noticed that Han's neck is articulated at the collar, so if you turn his head, his upper collar turns too, which will look REALLY weird.

The use of a lightsaber does not make one a Jedi, it is the ability to not use it.
Now JT did we really have to resort to potty humor?
These look great! I think Chewie is bigger....its just the angle the picture was taken from.
Now I wonder how much these'll cost?
"Two in the box, ready to go, we be fast, and they be slow!"
Check out my art at The Terrace Room!
I think I read somewhere they will cost $14.99. But since nothing ever makes it to the shelves around here, I'll probably be paying twice that.

Too much is never enough except when it's just about right.
People who have helped me out: DarthChuckMc, msjedi, bobafett07728, jjreason, dr_evazan22
Yeah, he looks alright. The mag says Chewie will be a Kay Bee Toys exclusive. Looks like those overpriced Gammorean Guards will be getting company soon!
Can anyone post a pic? Thanks!
OTC 12" Chewbacca pic from SW Insider:
The head sculpt is a lot better although for the most part overall it still looks like the Power of the Jedi Chewie.
Up, up, and OKAAAAY!!!
i dont really like it...the plastic 12" chewie doesnt appeal to me. if it was softgoods, with fur, now that i would buy.
I saw that in my Insider yesterday and thought it was the VOTC 3.75" figure. When I read it was the 12"... I about died. Tragic.
I disagree Slicker, this one has way different articulation. I don't like that it looks like it's missing elbow articulation and the hips look like the dreaded V-Crotch, but it looks a little better than Ally McBacca.

Had an awesome trip to the Gaff today with the Jenkins group. There was no wind early this morning, it was warm and the sky was clear and blue so we had good expectations for a Gaff crossing. We left at 10am and traveled the "groomed trail" to Rocky Brook Camps on Badger Lake where we met up with Leo. From there we headed cross country though PowderHorn Lake, Dawes Pond and onto South Brook. Instead of heading to the Gaff via Little Sandy Pond we turned South and traveled up South Brook for about 18 KM. The ride was very nice as we broke the trail up the brook. It was not long before we saw caribou on the brook…four of them. Within 200 meters up stream from the caribou a moose struggled up the steep bank. He was far deeper than his belly. We gave him lots of space so he wouldn't feel too pressured to get over the embankment….we had lots of time to observe him. By the time we stopped for lunch (after gaining significant altitude) it became blustery and we decided the going was much better on the fringes of the Gaff. We continued up South Brook until we found an passage to the open country to the East. From there we picked our way to a logging road that lead to little Joe Glodes Pond. Very nice going with lots of snow up here! We saw several Ptarmigan which I got within 5 feet of for pictures. I posted them and the caribou under chalets on the website. Lot of machines on the groomed trail on the way back to the Chalets. Helped a group from St. Johns get a snowmachine out of the ditch. He was stuck pretty good and head-on into a tree. Not too difficult for my widetrack Expedition though. I just backed through the powder, tied on to the machine and hauled it to the trail. Ther were pretty impressed with my machine I think! Looking forward to the next trip.
Distance traveled 135km

Audi TT FAQ --- Maintenance, Misfires, and a XT Spec-B swap --- Great Lakes TCL Registry
Thats pretty much how I looked as I scrolled down the thread.
Amazing. Just amazing.
awesome car, love anything made out of inconel!
The second thing is that since the F40 was raced in competition long beyond it's final production date (it was winning IMSA races six or seven years after the last one left the factory) and there were several evolutions of the turbos and intercoolers, if I remember correctly. Consequently, there are more modern turbos that are suitable replacements that you can get from Italy. I don't know if they have to matched with different intercoolers and ECU's or what but I know that they're available. I know that I can send the whole car to Michelotto and they can turn it into an F40 GTE but that would probably cost as much as the car in the first place. Besides as a street car, it's pretty sweet as is.
The point of all of this was not some sort of "look how cool my car is" or "how cool I am" thread. I just thought I would poke fun of the bad attitudes that I got when I came on here and hopefully put an end to all the Internet Meme comments whenever I post or ask a question.
sherpa - i wasn't trying to be rude or small. that was more of the same joking/allusion towards the internetmeme thread, in which the previously "unnoticed clues" all rushed to everyone once the foul call was made. i was just funnin' around there.
i too am a family man of "priorities," which would be painfully obvious to anyone walking through my barn/home/funhouse. you just have to find safe places to stash the good stuff! the kids are in charge; we work/live around them.
it's good to hear from someone who understands how to truly enjoy his spoils. we don't take too kindly to the preening and polishing types! i applaud your hobby, your pragmatism, and your love, fear, and respect of/for a good woman.
Well this is pretty ****ing awesome.

I just started reading the Internet Meme F40 thread. I am only about 1/3 through but it's pretty crazy to me.
First of all, he seems to know a little bit of what he's talking about. There are some things that are way off but some things right. Also, he doesn't sound like a nutcase (but I still have a lot more reading to do). I have not gotten to any parts where he says what he does or how much he makes or anything, only that he's jetlagged.
But the crazy thing is that he makes lots of Fchat references. Now I don't know tons about everything that goes on over there but I have a hard time thinking that either I don't know his posts or that no one I know knows his posts. But to the best of my recollection, there's nothing like this over there, no guy in the UK on the hunt for an F40. If he were, there would be two guys at least who would know all about it.
I don't know, it's a crazy world and honestly, the part of the thread that I just read has me perplexed. It's also really saddening to me for some reason. I'll keep reading.
Derek, did you ever see that thread?

I am hoping to gather some inspiration from RTF group. My young lab "Wilson" suffered a medial collateral ligament injury (hock not stifle) requiring surgery and incidental finding of carpal fracture of the left rear foot. The surgery was done in Nov 2012. He has been on leash walking only since surgery. After clearance from his surgeon, we are following a certified rehab specialist with his activity level. I honestly believe that the one advantage that he has with this type of injury is his size. He is 45 lbs of lean muscle.
My question to the group is this, has anyone had a dog with this type of injury return to competition? Wilson is a high drive lab who was competing in agility at the time of the injury (injury not related to agility). It is not the focus of his recovery to return to agility, I just want him to be healthy and happy. However, this little dog is DETERMINED! He is nearly 12 weeks out from surgery and doing great. We are walking approximately two to three miles per day and recently included a harness for added resistance training with recent introduction of steep hills and rough terrain training. You can see from the video his frustration of not being able to run. Please feel free to Private message. I appreciate any replies about your personal experiences.

You'll be sorry, Pee-Wee Herman!
So, it's well known that many NASA scientists and whatnot are major Trek fans, most of which claim they were inspired by the show and it's ideals to seek out their scientific careers. Obviously, most if not all of these people would have been inspired during the reign of Kirk's people from '66 and onward. As the years tick by, no doubt many held wonder as to when the Star Wars generation would get ahold of the internal workings of NASA. Well, today is that day. Or rather, tomorrow is that day. NASA will be attacking the moon, or "space station" as they most likely believed in order to go ahead with this.
I kid, of course, but seriously... We're gonna attack the moon. I really want to meet the first person that managed to say that with a straight face.
I do have a question burning in my head about this, though. Is it possible that this detonation on the moon will be able to give them info on the effectiveness of missiles for incoming asteroids?
"Hokey packaging and ancient gimmicks are no match for good detail on your figure, kid."
"I am a Klingot from Oklahoma in human boy form."
"We came, we saw, we conquered... We, woke up!"
The Moon is solid body held together tightly itself own gravity. While the raw material might similar, it's a about the same using Earth based explosion to judge the effective on asteroids. NASA's Deep Impact mission would be (and was) much more useful in terms of how to deal with Earth-killer asteroids.

Time for the Leonid Meteor Showers tonight, kiddies!
For the US: best viewing will be for the East Coasters from 1AM 'til dawn. Viewing best pretty much 90º straight up for you. Left Coasters will have to look to the lower Eastern horizon for their (my) views; again beginning about 1AM our time. The Moon won't be a factor as it will be in its new phase. This will be an average year for us....only about 20-30 displays per hour. If you want the best show, you'll have to get yourself to Asia post-haste! Domo arigato Mr. Roboto...
Bundle up and have fun!
¡Que la fuerza te acompañe!
:happy dance:
Interesting bookends: today is the 42th anniversary of The Eagle leaving the moon after its monumental first landing in 1969, while the space shuttle lands after its inexcuseably LAST mission. But on a positive note, reportedly, the shuttle will be on display at the CA ScienCenter here in SoCal eventually.
I predict that the upcoming Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi film will include the word "and." Multiple times.
I'm super crabby that they killed the shuttle without any sort of replacement programme in place. They keep talking about how the next incarnation of space travel will be left to private corporations and, while I get that, they will be the ones making deliveries to the ISS and such.
Did you know that, at present, it costs $10,000 to deliver 1 pound of coffee to the ISS?
I woke up this morning (sounds like a blues song intro) and noticed the moon looked different from its almost-full size the last couple days. Then I remembered... eclipse! Threepio says, "they're mad men, because "luna" (moon) gave us "lunatic! If you hurry you might catch it!" Check it out if you can, west coasters!

I just don't know about that. You would kill 100 innocent people to save a city from a bomber? I'm not saying thats ridiculous, but that's some deep crap
Now, was it reasonable? Like above, if there was no other way for them to get out, and both would die if one wasn't sacrificed, then yes, I believe it was reasonable, if unethical.
I base this on the fact that by doing this, you got rid of a middle aged over-weight guy and in return got a boy in a time where it would be very hard to raise a child, and the hardest parts of it were already over.
This sounds like some kind of half-hearted attempt at rationalizing how it is, in fact, ethical
I just have a hard time coming to terms with killing innocent life as ever being a viable option
Hopefully I'm never the innocent being sacrificed, but if I am, they better be damn sure they're doing the only thing they can, because if not, I'm going to be pissed.
I remember, if not specifically, stating it was completely unethical under any circumstances to take an innocent human life for another innocent human life.
You go into if's, and's, or but's, but like I said above, it is nearly impossible to go into every single detail. I said under those circumstances, it was reasonable.
If the victim was 8 years old and had cancer, BUT it might be curable, and if the guy hurt back at the farm was overweight BUT etc etc. You could make an ENDLESS number of arguments for all cases.
but I hope you get my point(s).
In the universe of this TV show, ethics are irrelevant.
How can you engage in such an act unless you have rationalized it's ethical nature?
The question is, is it justifiable? Moral?
You explicitly said you believed it to be unethical, but then mentioned characteristics of the man to be killed which can only be viewed as relevant if you were making some ethical rationalization.
I didn't alter the scenario in any way except to point out that the man's physical characteristics are irrelevant to whether or not killing one for expediency is rational.
But again, the question wasn't whether it was reasonable, it was whether it was ethical. Ethics and rational decision making are of course not mutually inclusive.
I didn't add any extenuating circumstances to alter the scenario, so this is not addressing any critique or inquiry I've made.
We are talking about the circumstances at hand and whether they are ethical.
I highlighted why the age and weight were irrelevant to that by showing a 10 year old in good health would be equally as rational to kill in order to preserve the other two persons.

- Description
An exposure of the Mather Gorge Formation, downstream of the 'emergency exit' trail off Billy Goat Trail loop A, and upstream of the first sandy beach. Immediately upstream of this outcrop is a prominent belt of amphibolite, and there are large angular amphibolite boudin blocks embedded in this strange rock. Interpreted as migmatitic metasediments, the dark schisty layers are interpreted as relict bedding, ancient mud layers recrystallized to schist and then boudinaged (broken into pieces) due to tectonic flattening. Interesting metamorphic textures with a 'spongy' texture can be observed in several places, as well as migmatization (partial melting) as evidenced by the felsic, coarse-grained material seen filling the boudin necks. There is chocoalte tablet boudinage at this location too (though not completely shown by this gigapan).
Also in evidence are potholes and flood-smashed trees, showing the effects of the Potomac River on these outcrops. Here in Mather Gorge, the Potomac floods relatively frequently, cleaning off these rocks and allowing us a view into their mineralogy and structure that would otherwise be obscured by lichens or river slime.

Incidence. Prevalence. Risk factors. Outcomes. We hear these words frequently in relation to diabetes and their impact on our world, but are we learning how certain patterns, and trends are associated with the global diabetes epidemic? Are we able to see the big picture, which now totals more than 371 million people living with diabetes worldwide? This is not an easy task given that every nation in the world, regardless of geography or race, is confounded by the rising tide. Professor Jonathan Shaw, Associate Director of Baker IDI Heart and Diabetes Institute, talks about the upcoming Public Health and Epidemiology Stream in Melbourne 2013, and how the programme will provide attendees with a greater understanding of the social, ethnic and geographic complexity of diabetes.

NFL Division Doesn't Add Up
Posted on 5 Jan 2011 by Steven Keys.
It's the topic on every football fan's lips this week: the West Division champion Seattle Seahawks qualifying for the NFC playoffs last Sunday with a lowly 7-9 record. Most in the media are defending the NFL's playoff criteria, saying it's a freak occurrence for a losing team to qualify and that it's nothing to fret about. I'd agree, so far as it's important to give the Seahawks t...
