It has been awhile since I looked, but I think Allcraft had aselection of stakes. Can't find their catalog right now, butwill look and post info tomorrow unless someone else has a bettersuggestion for you.
Does anyone know a good way to polish stakes. I have acollection of rough cast stakes. I have a grinder to get theworst of the rough off. What is a fairly quick way to get a goodfinish without spending hours on the polisher?
Richard WhitehouseUK
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
How about sanding them down until you have a survace that isready to polish?
Richard- You could try what I used to do years back when makingspurs from stainless steel. To get the smooth and rounded edgesand sides, we would do the initial rough grinding as you describeand then use the large size Cratex wheels to get them smooth andsemi-polished before buffing. Are Cratex available in the UK?They are a rubberized abrasive wheel, also called Brightboy,etc.like the small ones used in jewelry work. Good luck-RL
I could do that but they are very hard metal. I think I would beexhausted if I had to do a lot. I wonder how the manufacturers doit. I mean polishing, that is!
I think i would consider looking at one of the art metal sitelinks for on how to polish cast steel .
A belt sander would probably be quickest. For rounded forms youwould want to use a resilient back plate or none at all.
A large buff charged with Greaseless Compound works well on steeland would give you a very resilient and aggressive wheel.
The problem here isn't so much the hardness of the material, butthat combined with the scale of the pieces. You've got to scaleyour up your tools here to match the job. With a decent beltsander you should be able to get down to 600 finish pretty quickly.
Dick Caverly
Hi Richard,
I could do that but they are very hard metal. I think I would
be exhausted if I had to do a lot. I wonder how the manufacturers
do it. I mean polishing, that is!
Depending on the shape of the stake & the accuracy required on thefinished item there are several ways industry might polish theseitems. Most of the ways require some type of machine, lathe,cylindrical or centerless grinder.
A way that most folks could use is a belt sander and/or anglegrinder. Th is requires the use of tools generally available (inthe US) at well equiped hardware stores and any industrialsupplier. Belts of different grits are available at these locationsalso, however, a better selection of belts is available from acompany specializing in abrasives (look in the Yellow pages of yourphone directory). The majorit y of abrasives (in the US) are mfgdby 3M or Norton Abrasives.
Depending on the shape & size of the stake, a narrow width (aprox1", 25m m) belt might be required. If push came to shove, you couldalways get abrasives in 'shop rolls', various widths by about 50ft& grind/polish sh oe shine fashon. The final polish can be doneusing buffs or a polishing arb or or a right angle grinder.
Good luck!
richard, try your local school in the CDT dept thay may have alinisher,(like a belt sander for metal). they may be able to help
P.S. You should be able to rent a belt sander at a tool rental.
Most of them I am familiar with,but there is one that I've never
seen before and can't seem to get on.

New New York – Havana service
- Published by Ozgur Tore
JetBlue Airways and its charter partner, Cuba Travel Services, today to announce a new flight from New York to Havana, Cuba. The milestone makes JetBlue the first major carrier to announce a new flight to Cuba from New York since travel restrictions were recently eased.
New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said, "By leading one of the first state trade missions to Cuba as the United States reestablishes diplomatic relations, we placed New York State businesses at the front of the line for new prospects in Cuba, that will in turn support jobs and economic activity here at home. I commend JetBlue CEO Robin Hayes for his leadership in making JetBlue the first major carrier to announce a direct flight from New York to Cuba in this new era between our nations."
Cuba Travel Services is offering the flight, operated by JetBlue, on Fridays from New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) to Havana's José Martí International Airport (HAV) beginning July 3, 2015. Travelers should make arrangements directly with Cuba Travel Services (www.cubatravelservices.com).
JetBlue serves all charter flights to Cuba on its 150-seat Airbus A320, and will offer the airline's award-winning service featuring comfortable seating; free Fly-Fi, the fastest broadband internet in the sky; complimentary and unlimited name-brand snacks and non-alcoholic/soft drinks; free, live DIRECTV® programming and 100+ channels of SiriusXM® radio in every seatback; and the most legroom in coach (based on average fleet-wide seat pitch of U.S. airlines).
With the addition to the New York-Havana flight, JetBlue will operate five weekly round trips to Cuba, including flights from Tampa (TPA) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL) with various charter partners. Cuba will one day play an important role in JetBlue's overall Caribbean network, a region where JetBlue is the largest airline. The airline began flying to Cuba for charter companies in 2011.
Schedule between New York and Havana on Fridays as of July 3, 2015:
JFK - HAV HAV - JFK 12:00 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. 4:30 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.

Sort by:
after hesitating then jerks before regaining speed with stinking gas smell--might run normally for a couple days
check hybrid system light-the battery is coming to its end. "Battery pack deterioration"
My car has several warning lights on. It says to stop the car and call repairman immediately. Is this a common problem and does Lexus assist with costs?
stereo and satellite system work , NO volume control; doesn't show volume level on screen
Had filter changed during oil change service, immediately afterwards screen shows its on and working but not blowing on any setting? Is this normal and is there a reset to get the blower back blowing again? I had absolutely no problem at all prior to them changing the cabin filter?
does the 2007 LS460 require a 4 wheel alignment are front only?
how do you reset oil reminder light

The power bottom is not working and the disc or lod bottom are not working
First time having this kind of problem. My car was just completely unresponsive. At first it wouldn't start and orange triangle light was blinking with a message "parking brake is not available." I turned off everything and got out of the car to wait a few minutes. Then I was locked out, I couldn't open my car with the smart key. I had to manually open it. What seems to be the problem? I'm having it towed to the dealer.
Timing belt is made of rubber...a timing chain is made of metal....
Either cd pops out and sound system turns off or if no cds are in car radio just
turns off. Happens a couple or time a week. Hands are not near "mode" or Anthony other than outer rim of steering wheel.

Bought ls460 in December 10, and engine ran very quietly, not tapping, smooth and quiet. Had Valve Spring Replacement (per recall) performed at Northside Lexus. Now when car idles it has a noticeable clatter sound that accelerates when the rpms increase. One salesman said "turn your radio up." It is very frustrating in that this is an expensive car...supposedly the best Lexus makes.

And now, a note from Chuck fan Al Mosier:
AN OPEN LETTER FROM BUY MORE, Boston;
Hey Chucksters! We've been hounding composer Tim Jones for a score soundtrack CD for over two years and I hear from a reliable source that while he'd love to do one, Warner Brothers Music and WaterTower Records has to give the official "go-ahead."
So our mission is to let them know how much we want one. I'm starting a letter writing campaign to show WB there are lots of us that would jump at the chance to own those amazing tracks Tim composed for the show over the last five years!
Just write a polite letter stating your request and some nice things about WB/Chuck. If enough of us do it, they'll have to bow to the pressure. NBC did.
Pop the completed letter into an envelope addressed to:

text: Scott's website states that Grub-Ex will not kill existing grubs and if the homeowner knows that grubs exist, Ortho Insect killer should be used. Last year I had significant grub damage. I tried to kill them with diazonon (?) in November but it probably didn't kill many of the grubs. They were still near the surface. In mid-June, I treated my yard with Bayer Advanced Grub Control (the bag that contains Merit). Will Merit kill grubs or is it only a preventative measure? I'm starting to notice some turf problems where the new grass was planted in early April. I cut my lawn on the mower's highest setting (3" +/-). I will start watering every other day, but we've had a lot of rain this spring. Thanks, Dan

"The first visible snowfales of the season fell upon Hollidaysburg's 10th annual Pumpkin Festival last month. While the day's weather was oppressive with cold, wind, rain, snowflakes and sleet, it didn't thwart live music...I then caught my first look at The Chrome Hearts. The husband and wife duo of guitarist Bob and Stephanie Onkst share singing duties, flanked by guitarist Chad Buterbaugh, bassist Brian Baum and drummer Doug Fetter. The Chrome Hearts' primary flavor is country, with touches of rock and blues thrown in . During their two sets, the group did upbeat numbers from Johnny Cash, Don Williams, Jeannie C. Riley, the Eagles, Miranda Lambert, Elvis Presley, Albert King, Little Big Town, Linda Ronstadt, CCR and more. The Chrome Hearts also introduced two of their own original songs, "Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is" and "Jealous [of] You."

The Fort Worth Nature Center and Refuge is a hidden jewel-a wilderness comprised of forests, prairies, and wetlands reminiscent of how much of the Fort Worth/Dallas Metroplex once looked. Replete with native flora and fauna, beckons to those searching for a tranquil piece of nature. At 3,621 acres, the FWNC&R is one of the largest city-owned nature centers in the United States. Over 20 miles of hiking trails provide easy access to a myriad of natural wonders to be found on the refuge. It was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1980 by the National Park Service.
nice trails, clean, scenic is good.
I covered parts of Prairie, Deer Mouse, Riverbottom, and Caprock - a little over 3miles.
Overall, even despite the heat it wasn't bad. The bugs are out in full force which was really irritating the entire time, and there are huge wasps so be aware if you're allergic. When I got to Riverbottom I only stayed on it for 10min and then ran to the paved road when I was sure I heard an alligator dunk himself; could have been a big turtle but I wasn't taking any chances. Caprock has a big steep climb on one side of it, not sure about the other. All in all, it was a fairly easy and nice walk.
Awesome walk. Nicely kept trais.
The trails were well maintained. The markings for the trails need some work. Saw bison, deer and one rattler. Traveled the prairie, deer mouse and river bottom out to the rest a while
structure. it was an easy hike.
Love this place for hiking! The trails are relatively easy, and there's a beautiful view on all of them. A few are close to the water, so if you're weary of snakes and such, I'd avoid those. There's a ton of wildlife to see and an interactive area where you can learn more about the wildlife around you. It is a $5 fee to get in, dogs are allowed but must remain leashed. They also have events from time to time. It's a gorgeous center and a great place to take kids to educate them on the wildlife and ecosystems around them!

Server redundancy provides automatic synchronization of Point and Alarm Databases. Server redundancy provides automatic switchover of CimView application using Points and Alarms. Before you start building your application you should review the section in this documentation entitled "Limitations of Server Redundancy", to verify that the features of CIMPLICITY that you intend on using are supported in server redundancy.:.
CIMPLICITY will run your application as you design it. CIMPLICITY cannot automatically fix your project if you design it incorrectly. Therefore, it is important that you design your project to be mission critical from the ground up. Also, it is imperative that you test your application in a server redundant environment with viewers during the development stage. Only with a properly configured project can you switch on server redundancy and have it work flawlessly.
We at GE Fanuc have designed many redundant systems using CIMPLICITY. We understand the methodology and design techniques needed to build a robust system. Therefore, we do recommend contacting your salesperson to obtain several days of design consultation before you start your first project, and several days of on-site support during deployment.
Scripting Requirements for Server Redundancy
The single biggest issue in building a server redundancy system is your user defined scripts. During failover, point values may be unavailable for a short time. Scripts must be written to properly handle these intermittent periods and to exit cleanly. Scripts that depend on cleanly exiting must be coded to trap the errors that can occur when a point goes unavailable. You must test your scripts during fail over to verify they operate correctly.
Use of Primary / Secondary Computers
The purpose of your primary and secondary computers is to read and process data from your devices, distribute it to viewers, and to remain synchronized. They need available CPU bandwidth to handle exception conditions in your process. If you have viewers in your system, the primary and secondary servers should not run user interface applications such as CimView. The secondary server is not a "spare" computer to be used to perform other chores like word processing, etc. It is a hot backup, dedicated to providing redundancy for your mission critical application.
Important: The primary computer must have a mapped drive to the secondary computer. It is through this mapped drive that a qualified user (a user with administrative privileges) can start and stop the slave.
Database Logging Requirements
If you are planning on using database logging, you should certainly read the information in this document on how to use logging within a server redundancy project. Additionally, in a mission critical application, the use of Microsoft Access as a database is not supported. Instead, Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or other supported database server must be used. If you plan on logging a large volume of data you may want to consider locating the database servers on separate computers within the same LAN / switch as the primary and secondary. Remember the total CPU utilization, including the database server, must be less than 40%.
Network Configuration Requirements
In addition to having a solid physical network, server redundancy requires specific network software configuration to be performed on every computer in the system. Since specific configuration is required on every computer you cannot just "plug" another viewer into the network and expect it to work. The network configuration must be updated on the viewer and related computers.
Time Synchronization Requirements
The times on the Primary and Secondary computer must be synchronized. Additionally, if using trending on viewer computers, the times on the viewers must be synchronized with the servers. It is your responsibility to ensure that the computer times are synchronized. There are a variety of commercial products available to maintain time synchronization between computers. If you choose to automatically synchronize your clocks do so at any time other than midnight.

Find out more about one of the biggest commercial opportunities in today's fast-changing economy.
Artificial intelligence (AI) can transform the productivity and GDP potential of the UK landscape. But, we need to invest in the different types of AI technology to make that happen.
Our research shows that the main contributor to the UK's economic gains between 2017 and 2030 will come from consumer product enhancements stimulating consumer demand (8.4%). This is because AI will drive a greater choice of products, with increased personalisation and make those products more affordable over time.
Labour productivity improvements will also drive GDP gains as firms seek to "augment" the productivity of their labour force with AI technologies and to automate some tasks and roles.
There will be significant gains across all UK regions, with England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales seeing an impact from AI in 2030 at least as large as 5% of GDP.
Explore the global results further using our interactive data tool or see which of your products and services will provide the greatest opportunity for AI. You can also download our UK report to get a more detailed analysis and commentary on the positive economic outcomes.
Our analysis highlights that the value of AI enhancing and adding to what businesses can do now is large, if not larger than the impact of automation. It shows how big a game changer AI is likely to be – transforming businesses, people's lives and society as a whole.
But, for the UK to benefit fully, we need to:
Create the right environment for existing and new businesses to innovate and make the most of the product, productivity and wage benefits that this technology can bring.
Look at how to obtain the right talent, technology and access to data to make the most of this opportunity. To meet this challenge, we need to be even more innovative in the way we develop technology skills in the UK.
Make sure that AI systems are adopted responsibly and that every part of society can reap the benefits. Our Responsible AI report warns that effective controls need to be built into the design and implementation phase, so AI's positive potential is secured. This will also address stakeholder concerns about it operating beyond the boundaries of reasonable control.
There will be significant gains as a result of AI across all UK regions.
The larger total impact on GDP in some UK regions reflects the different trade patterns in each of the countries. England, and to some extent Scotland and Wales, have stronger trade links with Europe and the rest of the world. The gains through trade related to artificial intelligence are likely to put even higher upwards pressure on GDP in these countries by 2030.

When you boil down movies, books, and really any other form of stories, you find that they all follow the same pattern and, ultimately, are all from the same source. Disney screenwriter Christopher Vogler, in the late 1980's, came about a work by Joseph Campbell called, The Hero with a Thousand Faces. In this work Campbell proposed that all stories share a fundamental structure, which he called the mono-myth. George Lucas admitted that Campbell's work had inspired him in his creation of Star Wars.
When Vogler discovered Campbell's work, he sent out a company memo to all other Disney screenwriters where he explained that they should retell the story that Campbell explained was present in all major stories as many times as they could. The story they would tell and retell eventually became known as the hero myth.
Vogler boiled down this way of telling a story into twelve stages.
The 12 Stages of the Hero Myth
1. Ordinary World – the hero's normal world before the story begins;
2. Call to Adventure – the hero is presented with a problem, challenge, or adventure;
3. Refusal of the Call – the hero refuses the challenge or journey, usually because he's scared or wounded by previous experiences in some way;
4. Meeting with the Mentor – the hero meets a mentor to gain advice or training for the adventure;
5. Crossing the First Threshold -the hero leaves the Ordinary World and goes into the Special World;
6. Tests, Allies, Enemies – the hero faces tests, meets allies, confronts enemies, and learns the rules of the Special World;
7. Approach – the hero has hit setbacks during tests and may need to try a new idea;
8. Ordeal – the biggest life-or-death crisis;
9. Reward – the hero has survived death, overcomes his fear, and now earns the reward;
10. The Road Back – the hero must return to the Ordinary World;
11. Resurrection Hero – another test where the hero faces death – he has to use everything he's learned;
12. Return with Elixir – the hero returns from the journey with the "elixir," and uses it to help everyone in the Ordinary World.
Campbell believed that all myths contain at least most of the above stages. Only a few have them all, but all have many or most of them.
This way of structuring and telling stories gave Disney Studios the creativity it needed to make films such as The Lion King, The Beauty and the Beast, Toy Story, and more.
The Source of Every Great Story
Here's the point. If you take those twelve stages and look at Jesus' life, you'll find that every stage is present.
1. Ordinary World – Jesus grows up in the ordinary town of Nazareth, eventually working as a carpenter.
2. Call to Adventure – Jesus is aware of his calling, but waits for the appointed time to commence his public ministry.
3. Refusal of the Call – Jesus obediently submits to God's will, so this doesn't necessarily relate.
4. Meeting with the Mentor – Jesus is baptized by his cousin, John the Baptist.
5. Crossing the First Threshold – Jesus enters the wilderness where he is tested and prepared for his ministry.
6. Tests, Allies, Enemies – Jesus faces an assortment of tests, he calls the twelve disciples, and confronts the religious leaders.
7. Approach – Jesus is betrayed, arrested, tried, and tortured by his enemies before being rejected by the crowds and condemned to crucifixion.
8. Ordeal – Jesus suffers and dies to pay the sin debt of mankind.
9. Reward – Jesus defeats death and is resurrected on the third day, guaranteeing that his sacrifice was sufficient and accepted by God.
10. The Road Back – Jesus returns to his friends and followers to invite them to the mission of the kingdom of God.
11. Resurrection Hero – Jesus promises his followers that he will be with them to the very end of the age and tells them to make disciples of the whole world.
12. Return with the Elixir – Jesus' return will be accompanied with a regeneration of all things. He will bring the new heavens and the new earth. No more tears. No more pain.
Mankind has a longing for a hero. We tell stories about great people rising up to save the day. Could it be that this story is marked within our very hearts? Could it be that the stories we come up with are types that, if we look carefully, point us back to the story of our Savior?
We all have a longing in our hearts to be rescued from this world, from ourselves, from our circumstances, from our failures. Whether a person is a Christian or not, their desire is the same. All of mankind desires a hero. And the great news is that Jesus isn't a character drawn up in a myth or a movie. He is God himself coming down as a man to rescue his creation from themselves and to reconcile them to himself.
So, who is the source of every great story? Jesus.
This idea was adapted from a book I highly recommend, The Faith of Leap by Michael Frost & Alan Hirsch.

I'm looking for some new fruits to try. But my tastes run toward the less-sweet side of the spectrum: I like grapefruit, granny-smith apples, blackberries, slightly-underripe peaches and strawberries, etc. In other words I enjoy the distinctive flavor and texture of each fruit more than the pure sweetness that comes with it, although a little sweetness is nice.
So what are some other fruits I might be overlooking that are similarly only mildly sweet?

Yes, he did it again. Keith Schilling and his eponymous schleb-friendly firm managed to secure a High Court injunction on behalf of none other than fallen pop princess Britney Spears. See story
Toxic to any UK-based gossip reporter, the injunction bans media organisations in this country from printing false allegations about Britney, stemming from leaks regarding her ongoing sojourn in rehab. Heat is going to have to rethink its front page.
An application is pending to get media organisations to divulge their sources of the rehab leaks, so reporters would be crazy to break this injunction, no matter how tempting.
Critics may say that freshly-shorn Britney is overprotected but we think Schillings is becoming a slave 4 any high-profile media spats.
You'll remember that Schillings' Simon Smith got the first-ever John Doe injunction in 2003 on behalf of Bloomsbury against anyone daring to publish pages of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix ahead of the official release date.
And Schilling is fresh from securing a settlement, on behalf of Kate Winslet, with Grazia magazine for suggesting that the actress had visited a diet doctor.
Is stopping scuttlebutt for the benefit of celebrities just his prerogative?

Ummm...hi. *gives little wave, then ducks out of way of tomatoes* I know it's been a while, but this time (last chappy of The Darkness Within will be up this week or next week cross my heart), I do have a good excuse; my 'puter broke, so I had to wait for a few months to save up to get a new one. Say hello to Pooky Bear, my new laptop! Pooky Bear says hi.
But, onto business. This was supposed to be a prompt fill for '12 Days of Avengers Christmas'. But since my computer died *glares dead computer, which sulks alone in a corner*, I had to make it more...simple (okay, so maybe it wasn't JUST the computer; just call me the queen of procrastination! :) So, there are 3 chapters (2 prompt fills for each). It is Earth 3490/female Tony Stark, so if you don't like genderbending, I don't recommend this story.
Anyways, I hope you enjoy!
Oops, almost forgot:
Disclaimer: My name is Koko and I do not own Avengers, thought it would have made a lovely Christmas present. Oh, well. There's always next year.
And all chappies are unbetaed. All mistakes are my own.
Christmas Trees-Candy Canes
Steve could feel his left eye twitch.
'Just breath.' he thought to himself. 'Ten deep breaths, then…'
Oh, and there went his eye again.
The Avengers were going to pick out a Christmas tree for the tower, and Steve (heaven knew why) had insisted that they all go together, as a fam…team. As a team.
So, Phil had rented a huge, white van (Toni had called it a "molester van", whatever that meant), and they'd all piled in for the mini-road trip to Carlson's tree lot.
Toni had whined and complained (of course, it wasn't like everyone else was happy about it, either-the only ones who appeared to be happy about it were Steve-team bonding-and Thor, who was "most happy to see the "set of trees grown by the son of Carl"). Still, they'd had to forcibly buckle Toni into a seat in the very back, which was a little too dramatic. The billionaire had moaned that it was bad for her image to be seen in a 'molester van'. They all knew different, though-they just couldn't tell if it was arrogance or insecurity, but suspected it was more one than the other. Either way, they'd gotten her into the van and were on their way. Steve had been adamant they all go together.
Only now he wished he hadn't.
"Would you…please…stop that." Steve managed to grit out, clenching and unclenching his fists as they rested on his knees.
Toni grinned at him through the rearview mirror.
"Toni." Phil's voice was calm, emotionless, his eyes trained on the road. "There are seven people in this van, and you are the only one who has to cause problems."
"Hurry up and finish your candy cane!" Steve growled.
It felt as if his eye was trying to tap dance.
Natasha smirked over at him. "She's only doing it to get a rise out of you, Cap. Just ignore her and she'll stop."
He nodded, letting out a pent-up breath and slowly uncurling his fingers. He could do this. He was calm. He was…
A very loud, very deliberate
Steve lost it.
"I can't believe you did that." huffed Toni, trudging along in the wet, brown sludge that coated the side of the icy winter road. A good chunk of her dark hair was missing, just over her left ear (he'd Avenged his eye twitch).
"You asked for it." Steve huffed right back.
Running her mitten-covered hands up and down her arms with a shiver, she heaved a loud sigh. "I still can't believe Coulson made us walk. I mean, what are we, 5?"
"Yes, you did ask…wait, what?"
Electric blue eyes rounded one, quick rotation. "Nothing. I always though you had more of a lid on it, Cap."
Milky air gusted from his flared nostrils as a smile ghosted over thin lips. "I don't when obnoxiously little girls crunch candy canes right next to my super-serum enhanced ears."
"'M not a little girl." she muttered, arms clamped defensively over her chest.
He reached down to ruffle her hair, letting his fingers slide through the silky, boyishly short (she claimed it was called a 'pixie cut' and even Romanoff had said it was 'all the rage'), strands. "You are, compared to me."
Toni bumped her hip against his own (or his leg-he had a good foot on her). "Don't be so modest; you were frozen most of the time."
He chuckled low in his throat. "Thank you for that lovely confidence builder."
She regarded him with innocence framing her doe eyes. "Oh, you know me. Always striving to please."
He couldn't stop his eyes from darting to the missing hair. "Sorry about your hair. I…didn't really mean to pull it out. Honest."
Her playful expression instantly transformed into a guarded pout as she patted her tresses down to cover the bald spot. "You should be."
"In my defense, it was you who was…"
"Hey! Don't you dare to pin this one on me, it…"
"… eating that candy can rather loudly."
"…was just as much you as it was me!"
"You're the one who was purposefully being…"
"Oh, yeah?! Well, you're the one who jumped over the backseat like…"
"…obnoxious! I mean, really, you'd think a…"
"…like a kangaroo!"
"Hey! I am not…"
Toni stopped, clamping her hands over on her ears, curling in on herself. There was a wild, hunted sort of look in those eyes, a look that instantly made him feel bad. "Stark…"
"Shut up!"
Steve scowled. "Stark, really…"
"I said stuff a sock in it and shove it where sun don't shine, Captain, O my Captain."
The rest of the walk was full of silence and glares wasted on the innocent snow ahead.
The tree lot was swarming with people, and was heavily forested with large pine trees.
It was a wonder they didn't have a search and rescue team there to help people find their way out.
"This is just great." Toni griped as her wool coated fingers curled around Steve's bicep, trying to keep track of him in the thick knot of people and trees. He barely contained a gasp as electricity jolted up his arm-not an altogether unpleasant feeling. Toni apparently hadn't felt it, if her enduring chatter was anything to go by. "I mean, we'll never find them with all these people running around like crazed ants. And you wouldn't let me bring my phone! Team outing, my big toe!"
He ignored her in favor of glancing down at her small hands in confusion as tingles continued to race up his arm. Did she have Natasha's Widow's Bite under those mittens?
She noticed his look and pulled on hand away to stretch it out before them. "They're not much to look at,"-it was true-the wool was dyed an ugly maroon with puke-green stripes, and it appeared the knitter had unintentionally dropped several (hundred) stitches, "but surprisingly warm. Pep made them for me last year." The genius smiled softly down at the mittens. "She promised me a matching scarf this Christmas."
Steve couldn't stop his own tender smile. He'd never seen Toni look so blissfully vulnerable.
He realized, with a small start, that she was beautiful.
After that kind of revelation, the last thing he needed was a cannon ball to the stomach. But, fate just loved Steve Rogers.
Glancing down, he saw a dazed little boy, lying on his rump in the middle of the cobblestone path. He must have been about 6 or 7, all bundled up in scarves and coats and double gloves. A few, wet strands of pale blonde hair peeked out from under his Iron Man beanie, barely brushing his tear-filled blue eyes. He bit his lip as he stared up at Steve, letting out a squeak of, "Sajnálom!"
The soldier knelt down, resting his weight on one knee and fixing a friendly smile over his worried frown. "Hey, little guy. Are you alright?"
The boy blinked up at him uncomprehendingly. "Ninics English, nincs English."
Steve's brows crumpled in confusion. "What?"
"Aha!" Toni snapped her fingers, startling both males. "Hungarian, Capsicle! He's speaking Hungarian! I knew it sounded familiar!"
In a flat, exasperated tone, he murmured, "I don't speak Hungarian."
"Well, I do. Move over." The woman crouched down and gave Steve a little nudge. He took the hint and stood, stepping out of her way.
"Ummm…oh, right! Sorry, I'm a little rusty. Jól vagy?"
Relief flooded the boy's face and he shook his head emphatically. "Azt hiszem, az elveszett."
Lips pursed, Toni's head dipped slightly in confirmation. "Sajnálom. Ha megyünk meg a szüleid?"
The child eyed her distrustfully. "Nem szabadna, hogy szóba idegenekkel."
She threw her head back and laughed, the column of her tan throat illuminated by the Christmas lights blinking cheerfully around them. Steve swallowed thickly, focusing on the exotic words as they poured easily from Toni's lips. "Igen, de én nem vagyok idegen. Én vagyok Iron Man."
The boy's jaw dropped. "Tényleg?!"
Toni laughed again, her own eyes sparkling. "Tényleg. És ez a fickó Amerika Kapitány."
He edged closer to Toni, eyes bright and excited. "Ön egy titkos küldetés? Ezért te álruhában?"
Toni nodded. "Igen, de nem mondja el senkinek. Titkos, emlékszel?" For emphasis, she placed a finger to her lips-although the effect was lost, seeing as she had only two fingers in those mittens.
When the boy nodded eagerly, Toni added, "Vagyunk egy szuper-titkos küldetése, hogy segítsen megtalálni az anya és apa. Hol láttad őket utoljára?"
The little boy pointed down a path that wound through the trees to the side of where they were standing. "Ott lent."
Toni smiled brightly, rolling back up to her full height and taking the boy's hand in hers as she wrapped her arm around Steve's once more. "Keressük őket!"
As they turned down the walkway, Toni asked brightly, "Mi a neve?"
The child smiled shyly up at her. "Albert."
"A nevem Toni." She gestured to herself, then at Steve. "Ez Steve." In English, Toni said, "Cap'n, this is Albert. We're helping him find his anya and apu-his mom and dad."
Steve sent Albert a small wave. The boy grinned, then ducked behind Toni. The man chuckled. "I didn't know you spoke Hungarian."
She cheeks flushed lightly. "Surprise? I kinda forgot about it. I learned it a few years ago, when I got back from…" She broke off suddenly, clearing her throat with an exaggerated cough. "When I got back."
Steve's brows rose in curiosity, but in the short time he'd known Toni, he'd found he wouldn't get anything out of Toni that she didn't want to tell him, so he let the matter lie.
As they continued down the path, Steve couldn't help but think how…right this felt-his arm around Toni's shoulders, her hand held tightly by a child who had her eyes and his hair. What would that be like, to have a family with her?
The illusion shattered as Albert squealed, "Anya! Apu!", and broke from Toni's hold, running into the arms of an anxious looking couple several yards away. They received him with scolding cries of "Hol voltál?!" and "Hol voltál?!" and even a "Buta fiú!" (whatever that meant.)
Oh, well. It had been a hopeless dream anyway; there was no way he and Toni would ever stop arguing long enough to even consider a relationship.
Did he seriously just think that?!
"Hey, C.A., you coming? Our anonymous good deed of the day is finished so…ninja vanish!" She ducked behind a tree, poking her head around to grin at him. "'Sides, we gotta go find the others. Geeze, it's like a Christmas corn maze. Only, the corn is pine trees and…yeah, I'll shut up now. Whoever finds them first gets dibs on the first cup of coffee tomorrow!"
But, as Steve laughed and chased her through the sweet-smelling pines, he couldn't help but wonder about what could never be.
Hungarian Translations (I used google translate, so...they're probably not very correct. BLAME GOOGLE NOT ME!) XD:
Sajnálom: I'm sorry
Ninics: No
Jól vagy?: Are you alright?
Azt hiszem, az elveszett.: I think I'm lost.
Sajnálom. Ha megyünk meg a szüleid?: I'm sorry. Should we go find your parents?
Nem szabadna, hogy szóba idegenekkel.: I'm not supposed to talk to strangers.
Igen, de én nem vagyok idegen. Én vagyok Iron Man.: Yes, but I'm not a stranger. I'm Iron Man.
Tényleg?!: Really?!
Tényleg. És ez a fickó Amerika Kapitány.: Really. And this guy is Captain America.
Ön egy titkos küldetés? Ezért te álruhában?: Are you on a secret mission? Is that why you're in disguise?
Igen, de nem mondja el senkinek. Titkos, emlékszel?: Yes, but don't tell anyone. It's a secret, remember?
Vagyunk egy szuper-titkos küldetése, hogy segítsen megtalálni az anya és apa. Hol láttad őket utoljára?: We're on a super-secret mission to help you find your mom and dad. Where did you see them last?
Ott lent.: Over there.
Keressük őket: Let's go look for them
Mi a neve?: What's your name?
A nevem Toni: My name is Toni.
Ez Steve: This is Steve.
Hol voltál?!: Where were you?!
Hová tűntél: Where did you go?
Buta fiú!: Silly boy!
(I just realized that most of this story is written in Hungarian. O.o I really need a life. Ooo, and a fun fact: Albert is actually a Hungarian name; it means bright :)

When I played in the Australia team the captains were all nerds. Allan Border was a nerd, Mark Taylor was a nerd, Steve Waugh was definitely a nerd and Ricky Ponting too. The incumbent is a bit different. Michael Clarke is a Julio.
That was how we categorised ourselves in the dressing room – you were either a nerd or a Julio. Julios have got to look perfect – the hair has got to be perfect, they've got to have the right gear on, it's all about their appearance. The nerds weren't bothered about how they looked. The result was all and if you looked a mess it didn't matter as long as you achieved what you wanted to achieve.
In that sense "Pup", Julio though he may be and a very different character to the men I played under, is just the same as those Australia captains of the past. He may be a very modern guy, a metrosexual, but on the field he plays it tough and expects the best from himself and his team-mates. The only time Steve Waugh thought about his clothes was when he was trying to work out what was clean and what was dirty – I used to be his room-mate and, particularly in the days before he was captain, he was horrendously messy – but they have that hunger to win in common.
The first time I came across Michael in Aussie colours was on his Test debut in Bangalore on our tour of India in 2004. From the moment he came into the national side he was always a fairly confident guy – and he scored 151 in the first dig so it was well placed – but he always had a lot of respect for the older players and was willing to learn.
It wasn't a bad set of teachers he had either. Ponting, Shane Warne, Adam Gilchrist and Matthew Hayden, to name just a few, were all in there. That kind of environment is pretty special. In particular Warnie, who is such a good reader of the game and would've made a great captain, has passed a lot of his knowledge on to Michael.
To have that sort of schooling makes a huge difference to a young player. When I first came into the set up you had players like Border, Steve and Mark Waugh, Ian Healy, Craig McDermott and David Boon – all guys that I really looked up to when I was coming through the ranks. To play alongside them is something quite remarkable and you absorb a huge amount just from watching them at close quarters and in the conversations that you have.
At the time Pup first came in I'm not sure that we immediately thought: "This guy is captaincy material", because there were so many senior players and he was starting out. But when you think back he always had that potential and by the time Ricky retired he was the obvious choice. He has developed into a great captain. There's quite a contrast in style with Alastair Cook. While Cook is very structured in his approach to the game, Pup adjusts a lot quicker to the match situation. It's one of his real strengths.
I wouldn't really say that he's a student of the game, with his head buried in cricket books. I've known players who have been cricket, cricket, cricket – there's a reason why we call Mike Hussey Mr Cricket – and Michael isn't in the same league on that score. He's not a real stickler for the history of the game either, though he recognises that it is important, puts a bit of time and effort into it and treats it with respect. Generally he tries to be more of an all-round package. It'll be very interesting to see when he hangs up his boots whether he goes into commentating or coaching, or whether he goes off and does something completely different.
An Australian prime minister once said that his job was the second most important job in the country – behind being captain of the cricket team. It's not a job you take on lightly. And with Pup being the prize wicket in the batting order as well as the captain there is a lot on his shoulders. But that is what he enjoys – he enjoys being the focus, the centre of attention, the one that is expected to go out there and do a job. Some people get in that position and wilt. They can't handle it. Michael, on the other hand, seems to thrive on it.
When he scores big runs the team do well. He's the man who sets the standards for his team-mates – and he'll need to set the bar high again at Durham.

- Name: Josh Maxfield
- Class of: 2010
- Studied: GCSE Maths, BTEC National Diploma in Engineering, NVQ Level 2 in Performing Engineering Operations and 'AS' Mathematics
- Doing What? BEng (Hons) Mechanical Engineering, Northumbria University
Josh Maxfield had never really understood Maths at school so it was no surprise that he only gained a grade D in his GCSE. However, determined to improve his job prospects he decided to retake the subject when he enrolled at Selby College.
After a few months at college something suddenly "clicked" and Josh started to understand Maths more, so much so that he decided to study an AS Level in the subject. This in turn sparked his interest in Engineering and led to him swapping 'A' Levels for the BTEC National.
Having been named Engineering student of the year in 2010 Josh has never looked back and now on the verge of completing his Degree he has ambitions to further his education with a Masters Degree in Mechanical Engineering.
He said; "I wouldn't have been able to go on to Higher Education without the help and support of both the Maths and Engineering staff at Selby College. Maths was never my strongest subject, but they made me enjoy it and more importantly understand it; without their guidance I wouldn't be where I am today!"

Leona Build Guide by Zyllian
Not Updated For Current Season
This guide has not yet been updated for the current season. Please keep this in mind while reading. You can see the most recently updated guides on the browse guides page.
Thank You!
Your votes and comments encourage our guide authors to continue
creating helpful guides for the League of Legends community.
Leona Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Here is my first guide on Mobafire. First of all, please excuse my approximative english.
I chose Leona as my first build because I really enjoyed the way you can play this OP champion!
For those who don't really know who's Leona, I'd say she's a mix between Sion, Jarvan IV and Amumu.
Let me explain that:
Her shield Eclipse is the same as Sion, besides it does not provide an extra armor but an augmentation of your magic and damage resistance. It will explode after 3 seconds, dealing a GREAT amount of damage. (I'll get back onto this)
Her Zenith Blade is like Amumu's skill, but even better! You'll deal damage toward all the enemies your Blade go through, and finally teleport to the last champion on your way.
I play here as a tank that can take a lot of damage, and also a great assist for the team (Aegis of the Legion + 2 stunts)
I hope you'll enjoy that short Build, as much as I did. I really won a lot of games playing Leona this way.
Since Leona is an AP/Tank, you'll need magic penetration. I've seen some people playing Leona with a full AP build, but Leona is NOT HERE TO DEAL A LOT OF DAMAGE. And that's one thing important to remember!
The Seals of Defense and Glyphs of Shielding are commonly used when playing a tank.
Yet again, the masteries 9/21/0 is the common skill tree for a tank.
Again, Leona is not a champion to choose when you want to deal big amounts of damage.
I've tried myself Leona as a full AP and a 21/9/0 masteries tree, it's not the way Leona was made for.
Early game, I start Leona just like I play Mordekaiser. She's quite low on mana and rely on the other in lane with you to finish enemies.
Kindlegem allows Leona's cooldown to be shorter, which make easier the track of ennemies. This item combined with Blue, and you're the greatest stunt of League of Legends.
Randuin is really helpful during teamfights. Any good tank will have Randuin in his hands actually.
Late game, depends on how the fight is going. If you have lots of AP in front, you should then get Force of nature instead of Frozen Heart.
Remember, you're not a killer, you're a GREAT help for your team during teamfights.
Skill Sequence
Just wait till level 2, when you get your Shield of Daybreak. When an enemy is near, just use Zenith Blade to get to him and stunt him.
When you get to have Eclipse, YOUR MAIN SKILL, here you'll be a pain in the ***.
Skill Sequence:
Active Eclipse
Use Zenith Blade to get to your enemy
Stunt him with Shield of Daybreak
Eclipse will explode
Use Solar Flare (on the whole enemy team or on enemies escaping)
Wait for CD
Your Ult is AMAZING in teamfights, but also when an enemy is escaping, or YOU are escaping (it can happens)
Always be sure to active Eclipse when ready
The main way you kill an enemy is that way. DON'T FORGET TO USE ECLIPSE BEFORE USING ZENITH BLADE TO GET TO THE ENEMY
Even though a champion is played differently by everyone, the way I play this Leona makes me win 7/10 games.
I hope you enjoyed that short build, short overview on how to play that OP champ (for now)

Odemwingie: Baggies are a target
West Brom striker Peter Odemwingie feels that his team's great start to the season is partly responsible for their lack of points in recent matches.
The Baggies have only picked up one point from their last five league games, and Odemwingie believes this is because teams are no longer underestimating them.
He said: "After a good start, teams are coming to us, playing more defensively and we are finding it difficult to open them up. Every success has its effect, teams are not underrating us and it has become more difficult."
He added: "I don't think we are playing badly. We've been a bit unlucky and had a few injuries and suspensions.
"We just need to add a little bit of extra effort which will bring the goals that got us the points.
"We did show we can play and beat any team, so they started looking at us more seriously and that makes things more difficult.
"It's something we have to learn and be ready for because if we get back to playing well it's going to happen again, but we'll know how to respond."
The Nigerian international added that the squad had addressed their recent form in team meetings.
"We had a few meetings this week, and how we react is what's important," he said. "We just reminded ourselves of our targets, had an open discussion about how we felt as a team, and asked if anyone has ideas about how we can correct the situation and start winning.
"The team spirit is still there. There were no quarrels, people who had opinions spoke them and we have to now use those to get back to where we were."

Was delighted with both the quality and style of the trousers I purchased. I had to return the smaller pair I ordered so contacted customer service for information. They said for me to let them know how much it cost me to return them and they would be happy to reimburse me. I emailed them to say I had returned them, but that as it didn't cost a lot to post them, I didn't require reimbursing. I found their service very polite and helpful… Read Full Review

text: Started with EXTBlue 09sept, had the phone freeze up a couple times when exiting sleep mode. Flashed a nightly over that, problem persisted. Also had it randomly restart a few times. From there, started over by wiping everything, and flashing a nightly (091710 I think). Still had the problem, found the so-called "6.1" update, wiped again and went with that. I still have the original problems, and now it's also freezing up on the camera screen. Otherwise happy with the performance and such, any suggestions?

I´ve heard the medical doctors now are suggesting we do SOCIALIZED lawyers, and put them on the gov´t dole...see if they´ll like it.
we already do- Public Defenders.
Tort reform can and should be done first, NOW and separately. There is no complex entwining and threaded set of current legislation that has to be taken into account. It can and SHOULD be done in a SEPARATE, PRISTINE manner that ALL of us can read, even the Congressmen voting on it! (Imagine that!) It will lower the cost of health care by 100-200BILLION dollars.
I realize that some other things could be done too. I, as a NYStater, would be very happy if Congress would pass legislation affirming the Commerce Clause of the Constitution to allow the interstate activity of me buying insurance that the Wisconsin legislature has deemed sufficient.
However after that I would have no objection,
IF the Congress wishes to work on creating a pilot HealthCare program which MANDATES that ALL Congress be enrolled in FOR LIFE, all federal retirees, and ALL Federal employees be enrolled in while they are employed.
Lets see how well they can design something that they and their union and non-union buddies are required to purchase. Maybe they would even decide it is worth their time to read the bill. In such a public program, ANY other American would be allowed to VOLUNTARILY enroll in that program at any time with the same premium schedule. However, since they are not federal employees, they would be free to change out of it annually. In addition if that program EVER runs a deficit, premiums would be IMMEDIATELY be increased to cover the cost, or benefits must IMMEDIATELY be cut. It can NOT run deficits.
Lets see how what type of money saving, excellent, desirable, keep doctor, public, coop, competitive health care program that they design for themselves and their minions first.
PROVE IT FIRST, CONGRESS! Gain our trust this way!
If you build it, and prove it, we will come, and willingly.

Dear Governor Perry,
On March 30, 2009 the Texas House of Representatives passed HCR 50 affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment.
You have publicly supported this bill, and stated that attorney generals from all over the union could be getting ready to sue the US Government.
We are asking you to take the lead.
We are asking you to order the Texas Attorney General to publicly begin working on a law suit under Article IV, Ninth, and Tenth Amendment of the Constitution.
We are asking you to protect the citizens of Texas that we will not stand for government controlled healthcare in our state.
Under your leadership we can effectively kill the proposal of this administration and allow Texas to be a state free from socialism and collectivism.
Be the voice of reason in the national debate and allow Texans the ability to solve the problems of our state.
Thank you,
(Signature Date)

Facts about the 10th Amendment:
The Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) of the United States Constitution, which is part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791. The Tenth Amendment restates the Constitutions principle of Federalism by providing that powers not granted to the national government nor prohibited to the states are reserved to the states or the people.
Affirming that the State of Texas claims sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution, serving notice to the federal government to cease and desist certain mandates, and providing that certain federal legislation be prohibited or repealed.

Council says no to Machettie markets
The Bathurst Regional Council has rejected a proposal to run markets in its main park.
Council received a request to run bi-monthly craft markets in Machettie Park, which would attract around 30 stalls.
But the council has rejected an application to run the event in the city's main park, because it is thought it would crowd the area and ruin the park's atmosphere.
The Mayor Monica Morse says the proponent has been asked to consider the Lions Club's Berry Park.
She says council wanted to maintain the serenity of Machettie Park.
"I think people feel very strongly about Machettie Park and keeping it as it is," he said.
"It's a very important part of Bathurst where you take your children to feed the ducks and sit and have picnics with the views of the trees and it's just got a special atmosphere Machette Park.
"It's not being used expect for Australia Day for things like stalls.
"There are other parts of Bathurst where we have had stalls we've had them in Berry Park and the showground.
"That's probably best we felt to keep that sort of activity in those areas, rather than in our beloved Machettie Park."

Developing Sustainable Education in Regional Australia
Edited by: Andrew Gunstone
The issues analyzed in this book explore a range of questions that impact the sustainability of Australia's rural and regional education. Divided into three sections - university education, school education, and Indigenous education - the questions that are examined include: * How can students from homes where neither parent has received post-school education be encouraged to undertake higher education? * How can the collective needs of some children - for example, Indigenous students - be met? * Is competition beneficial for attracting all types of learners? * How does one re-distribute resources to those who are in most need? * How do we reward the more effective academics and teachers who impact learning? * How do we measure this impact? * How do we keep the most talented and motivated people in the teaching process? * How does assessment become an on-going developmental process that invigorates and stimulates interest and understanding?

Over / Under: James and the Giant Peach
by Matt Goldberg
February 10, 2008
Over / Under is a new weekly column that looks back at films of the not-too-distant past and sees how time has treated them. Which films are over-rated and which are under-rated? What's mandatory viewing that isn't so mandatory? What cinema cult should you join or which should you avoid? I'm sure this column will piss a lot of people off so before that happens, I'd like to start with a positive review…
Henry Selick's The Nightmare Before Christmas (yes, Tim Burton's stamp is unmistakable, but he didn't direct it) is deemed a classic and rightly so. The songs are fantastic, the design is sublime, and it doesn't overstay its welcome. But the best aspect is the stop-motion animation. If there's one thing I lament about the over-use of computer animated films, it's that it pushes out not only traditional hand-drawn animation but stop-motion animation. Selick is the best stop-motion animator this side of the Atlantic (the other side would be the UK's Aardman Animations who brought us Wallace & Gromit). While Nightmare may be Selick's best-known film, he did another one a few years later based on a classic book by Roald Dahl.
James and the Giant Peach (1996) is a modern fairy-tale where the titular character (James, not the Giant Peach) is orphaned when his parents are killed by a runaway rhino (you read that correctly), and he's forced to live with his wicked aunts, Spiker and Sponge. But along comes a mysterious stranger who offers James a bag filled with magic, glowing, maggot-looking things. But before James can use their magic and go to the place where dreams come true (New York City), he drops the bag and the magic maggots end up creating a giant peach. When James enters the peach, he turns into stop-motion animation and encounters a group of bugs that have all been magically transformed into stop-motion and now have the ability to talk, play the violin, and other assorted tasks.
Rule #1: don't over-think a family film. I could just as easily mock Toy Story or The Wizard of Oz but I don't want to have to beat the shit out of myself. Yes, the film is silly, but it is genuinely enjoyable and that's due in large part to Selick. The look is completely different than Nightmare and Lane Smith's conceptual design really works well with Selick's animation. But before the film goes stop-motion, you can see Selick aching to go beyond the real-world as the "real-world" of James and the Giant Peach is barely-real to begin with. The backgrounds are simple, the colors stark, and clearly not of this world but also not the stop-motion where the film lives.
But what's truly interesting about James is that it's such a product of it's time in that it feels the arbitrary need to have songs and celebrity voices. Today, we still have celebrity voices but the songs are practically a relic. And it's the forced musical aspect that hurts the film the most. The songs kind of… suck. It makes you appreciate talented composers like Alan Menken and it also further enforces my belief that Randy Newman is garbage. I mean, his music is passable, but as a lyricist, he's the worst. Well, actually, Damien Rice is the worst, but he doesn't write music for films.
I try to look at this film and others I'll be reviewing without the rose-colored glasses of nostalgia. If you don't have a deep love of stop-motion animation, then James and the Giant Peach may not work for you. It will certainly disappoint if you're expecting another Nightmare Before Christmas. But as a family film, it stands up rather well and if you have kids, it's not a bad flick to have in your collection after you've "lost" that copy of Shrek the Third.
