Pacific Rim Technologies announces 4G Shield hard case
Pacific Rim Technologies has announced the 4G Shield hard case made of aircraft-grade aluminum. The 4G Shield features a swivel belt clip, and a clear, hard plastic screen protection and access to all iPod functions. The 4G Shield is priced at $34.99 and is expected to ship in early September 2004. Some of the comments below refer to the hole in the back of the case. This hole is used to push the iPod out from the case for removal.

Nice, so many 4G cases announced today. This one looks promising. I wonder how the belt clip looks like…

that looks like ####. it looks like it could #### up your ipod. the glass/plastic case ###### up my old 3G and there is no way in hell that thing is touching my 4g

Thgis looks ideal - I will buy it as soon as either iPodlounge or Apple breaks total silence on audio defect. Has Apple gone into stealth mode hoping the problem will just go away—or are they working on a fix?
Anyway this looks like the hard case I want - Give me the "all clear" Ipodlunge and I will buy both a 40gb 4g and this case

It's great that the 4G cases are finally being announced. This looks interesting, but I'm definitely going to look for a review first.

ahh! what is with the hole in the back! how annoying will it be when there is a scratch ONLY INSIDE THAT LITTLE HOLE!
Posted by harrison on August 18, 2004 at 4:05 PM (PDT)
right, that hole sucks. i know how big my ipod is. Thanks, but no thanks.
Posted by grafty on August 18, 2004 at 4:27 PM (PDT)
I got the 3G version of that case and I wondered what that whole was for… The neoprene padding inside is so tight, your iPod is impossible to remove (wont accidently pop-out). The whole is to push the iPod out!!
Posted by Pixel Jockey on August 18, 2004 at 9:43 PM (PDT)
The hole is also to allow heat to leave the unit, so your iPod doesn't overheat while it's used inside the case.

Looks awesome!
Posted by Obadiah on August 19, 2004 at 4:49 AM (PDT)
I don't like that there is only one case that holds both the 20GB and 40GB. That means the case will be oversized for my think little 20GB. I'd like a metal case made specifically for the 20GB model so it is thinner.
Posted by Shadow on August 19, 2004 at 7:35 AM (PDT)
umm is this thing supposed to be heavy? I have an Extremity case from ExtremeMac and I think i just jumped the gun on buying it, although it did come with some nice add-ons for pretty cheap compaired to some of these other cases that are coming out.

Dear iPodLoungers,
Thank you for your interest in the new 4gShield Case for 4th Generation iPods. We just wanted to answer some of your questions.
- The whole in the back is in fact to push out the unit. The neoprene lining gives it a very tight fit and it would be impossible to push out without the whole. The tight fit holds the unit tightly in place.
- The case is made of aircraft-grade aluminium and is VERY light.
- The case is lined with neoprene and it is IMPOSSIBLE for you to scratch it.
- The Belt clip is a standard cell-phone belt clip. We've just uploaded an image of the belt clip on our product page.
Happy iPodlounging,
Senior Marketing Manager

Gee, handled by marketing… this is the 2nd thread I've read today, and it's the 2nd one with a marketing guy quelling any negative sentiment contained within.
I was on another gadget forum for tablet PCs that was an awesome resource, until it was literally overrun by Microsoft MVPs aggressively "helping" people.
Personally, when I'm talking with friends or family regarding the traits of merchandise I or they may potentially purchase, the *last* thing I want is a sales rep butting in at every turn "correcting misconceptions" and offering generic answers and statements (e.g. directed at the group rather than individuals).
Product hawking and customer-management in this casual and friendly environment for *fan* chat is entirely inappropriate IMO, and ruins the "atmosphere" of the place. If marketdroids are *really* concerned with users' or potential customers' complaints about their product (and aren't just grandstanding in a popular forum to put a good public face on things), may I suggest "polite, specifically-addressed private e-mail" instead of "stone tablets from a mountaintop" as the recommended method and form of communication?
Have fun scratching up your iPod!

yuk! one of the ugliest ipod cases i've seen, i'm ordering the vaja ivod as soon as its released.
Posted by pantalaimon on August 20, 2004 at 6:56 AM (PDT)
just ordered my 4g hardshiel w/ shipping and sales tax it came out to $50.73. I hope itz a good case
Posted by renegadezx91 in Orange Count, Cali on August 20, 2004 at 8:36 PM (PDT)
I actually like the case. I was thinking of getting one of the ipod Armor cases and drilling it out to look pretty much like this one does right now.
I can't say i'm impressed with the hole though. I understand it's for heat issues but if that is a problem perforate the back like a G5. That would solve the heat issues and give better protection.
Though I can see how getting it out would still be a problem.
The only other thing I am not wild about is the latch on the case. It looks like it could be snapped off or lose it's tension over time and eventually make the lid not close tight.

Joe's Cafe, 24/7 pit stop for ESL learners and teachers | June 2013
Egg's off, bacon's off, bread's off, tea's off. English is on though.
What's this guy got to do with English?
This guy is "Guy Fawkes", and English was his mother tongue. His death is gruesomely celebrated in England every 5th November when ordinary people mindlessly burn effigies of him on bonfires.
What did Guy Fawkes do to deserve such venom? He plotted with others to assassinate the king of England (and of Scotland) by blowing up Parliament during its state opening in 1605. Their motives were politico-religious… But they failed. Their plans were leaked and Guy Fawkes was the one conspirator found guarding the gunpowder under the House of Lords - all 36 barrels of it, enough to send the king and Parliament to kingdom come. Guy Fawkes was questioned but refused to speak, except to give a false name - John Johnson. Eventually the king signed orders for him to be tortured ("gently at first"). An observer (Sir Edward Hoby) noted "Since Johnson's being in the Tower, he beginneth to speak English." "The Tower" was the Tower of London, specifically, in this case, its torture chambers. In fact, under the effects of torture - probably the rack - Guy Fawkes broke and revealed not only his own true name but the names of his co-conspirators.
The mask you see in the photo is a representation of Guy Fawkes. This particular representation, designed by illustrator David Lloyd, first appeared in Alan Moore's comic book series V for Vendetta (starting 1982) and subsequent film adaptation (2006). The story concerns resistance to a repressive regime set in England in the then not-too-distant future. The mask has since come to be used as a symbol for the online hacktivist group Anonymous, and more broadly as a symbol of popular protest against corruption and government sleaze and of resistance to authoritarian Western governments (although its import and use is banned by some Western-leaning regimes such as Saudi Arabia).

WASHINGTON — For those caught up in the chaos and horror of a shooting spree, the Department of Homeland Security has a survival plan.
With seminars, online courses, posters, a booklet and even a pocket card highlighting salient points, the department is educating mall owners, office managers and the public on how to lessen the likelihood of becoming a casualty.
The pointers include yelling at or subduing the shooter in some situations. The online course consists of quizzes and assignments such as telling how to respond during a gunfire assault.
While the guidance may seem reminiscent of advice given to 1950s' schoolchildren to hide under their desks to survive a nuclear attack, security professionals said people need to prepare for the increasing deadliness of mass shootings.
"The only method of response is for citizens to understand their options to cope and respond to avoid being a statistic, because someone usually dies," said Robert Siciliano, a Boston- based security consultant. "In this case, information certainly is power."
Even so, Colin Goddard, one of the survivors of the Virginia Tech university massacre in 2007, said he doesn't think any of the booklet's pointers would have helped him avoid the four bullets Seung-Hui Cho pumped into his leg, hips and shoulder.
"You can never prepare for something like that," Goddard, 26, said in a telephone interview.
A New York Police Department report last year found that 281 mass shootings occurred between 1966 and 2010, and many of the most lethal incidents happened in the past decade.
In the latest tragedy, a gunman wearing a gas mask, ballistic helmet and vest killed 12 and injured 58 on July 20 in Aurora, Colo., when he opened fire in a movie theater showing a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises."
The booklet and online course indicate that "attitudes have evolved into a tacit, realistic acceptance that violence in our workplaces, schools and public places has become a part of our lives," Joseph A. LaSorsa, a former Secret Service agent who's a Swansboro, N.C.-based security consultant and private investigator, wrote in an email.

LEXINGTON COUNTY — Two Columbia men were arrested Thursday for attempting to perform illicit sexual acts at a public boat landing near Irmo.
The two men a 54-year-old and a 42-year-old were charged with violating a Lexington County ordinance that prohibits persons from performing sexual acts in public. The case will be handled in magistrates court.
The two men were released from the Lexington County Detention Center on personal recognizance bonds.
Lexington County Sheriffs deputies arrested the men during an undercover investigation in response to citizens complaints about illicit activity at the boat landing.
The two men each approached a deputy who was working undercover and offering to perform a sexual act. The deputy then arrested each man.

The mountaintop has the double task of protecting the food and preventing "lulà" from eating all day. but quite apart from the functional features, I wanted above all to give life to a landscape, to the dream of this mountain in the figurative tradition that I identify with so much.
Hmm, perhaps the dog is howling because she can't get at the food! Kidding, even though it's form over function for those all-day-snackers, this $80 style sure is sleek.

The sys admin's daily grind: ncdu
I've never heard of an admin having to remove disks from a server because of a chronic lack of data, but full disks are part of the daily grind. The du clone ncdu will help slim down your data.
I use Nagios to keep track of hard-disk capacity on my server disks. Whenever the successor to NetSaint kindly informs me that the remaining disk capacity on server XY has dropped below the magical threshold of 10%, I may be warned, but the trouble is just starting. If I'm out of luck, the whole data repository could reside on a RAID system without anything in the line of partitioning, and believe me, this is fairly typical for smaller servers. With a bit more luck, Nagios might tell me that the /var partition is the bottleneck, leaving me to launch du and find out where the disk hogs have their megabytes stashed. Unfortunately, output from the Disk Usage tool for overly complicated directory trees, like the ones I have, is less than intuitive.

How to hard reset the HTC Wildfire
We show you how to hard or factory the HTC Wildfire if something goes wrong
If you find yourself in difficulty with the HTC Wildfire, such as it keeps craching, you can perform a hard reset to revert your device back to factory settings.
Please note that all data will be deleted from the HTC Wildfire as a result of this procedure. This process does NOT delete data stored on the microSD card. We recommend backing up all of your personal data before proceeding.
- Turn the power off. If your HTC Wildfire is frozen, pull the battery out and reinsert it
- Hold the Volume Down button
- Press and release the Power button
- You are now presented with a menu that allows for Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock
- Select Clear Storage by pressing the Volume Down button
- Press and release the Power button
- Now simply confirm your decision: Volume Up for YES and Volume Down for NO
If you selected YES, all data including third-party applications will be deleted from the HTC Wildfire.
Once the wipe is complete, the phone will reboot to its factory fresh state.
Disqus - noscript
Hello, i have this problem, about two days ago my HTC Wildfire's screen would not work right - after pressing the sleep/wake up button the four sensoric buttons would light up, but the lock screen would not appear, the screen remained black. I noticed that even if the screen doesn't show any signs of life you could still unlock the phone by making the same finger moves you would normally do to operate it. Today, after a half an hour of pushing the sleep/wake up button for my HTC to show me the lock screen i was greeted by success and after backing up my data i tried to do a HARD (FACTORY) reset by turning my HTC off and following the steps provided above. When holding the Volume Down button and pressing and releasing the Power button nothing happened though. Then i held the Volume up button and pressed and released the Power button, my HTC turned on and vibrated three times, but no matter how long i held the Volume up button the screen wouldn't show anything, just the light indicator turned green and kept that way for as long as i didn't take out the battery. At this moment i don't know what to make of this situation, is it a screen hardware issue or somekind of weird software problem? Oh and after the unsuccessful attempt to Factory reset the HTC i pulled the battery out and pressed the Power button, after a while it played the HTC sound when turning on and the four sensor buttons below the screen lighted up. So i'm back to where i started :(
tried and the solution is good
thank you very very very much for this i have not been using my phone for months now. but this has worked for me
very helpfull .. thank a lot
I searched this issue everywhere and someone told me press volume up + power. Omg. btw, thank you so much :)
how do i leave the bootmenu when the buttons vol up or down dont repond
i hold the volume down and power together for five min and after releasing my htc just turned on and nothing happened...my problem is i download a keyboard for my htc and i change the input... and after turning my phone on and off i had to enter password password , i enter it correctly with the new keyboard i have downloaded but it just dont come.
I did that but it still did not work
Hello, i have this problem, Since sometime back my HTC DesireVC is not switching on, I mean it remains till the screen "HTC quietly brilliant" thats it...It does not go ahead from there..I tried connecting to the Sync manager but it does not detect my phone...I need refresh/wipe/reset my phone. Does HTC have any software like BBSAK ?
Any help is appreciated.

Despite the fact that he claimed just half of the real estate, Dunnett managed to pack his half booth with some gorgeous custom snare drums, including his first Magnesium model, featuring the lightest shell in his arsenal. We also got an eyeful of his new wood veneer carbon fiber snare and a striking acid etched steel model among his other artistic creations.

Colts, Titans looking for redemptionBy BARRY WILNER
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS | November 14,2013AP PHOTO
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck throws against the St. Louis Rams during an embarrassing loss last Sunday in Indianapolis.The Colts and Titans would very much like to forget last weekends debacles. Theyll get a chance right away.
Indianapolis (6-3, No. 8 in the AP Pro32) leads the AFC South and pretty much can put away Tennessee (4-5, No. 21, AP Pro32) with a victory Thursday night. Of course, the Colts need to play far, far better than they did in being routed at home by St. Louis 38-8.
And the Titans must show a lot more than they presented in handing Jacksonville its first win of the season last Sunday, 29-27 at Nashville, no less.
Indy has been plagued by slow starts, and not having star receiver Reggie Wayne has become a huge problem. The Colts have been down in the first quarter by double digits against Miami, Seattle and Houston. The Rams got a big lead early in the second period.
Like I said, were not the hunters no more. Were the hunted, cornerback Vontae Davis said. So teams are coming out throwing punches at us.
Tennessee took a haymaker last week just when it could have climbed within one game of the division-leading Colts. Starting quarterback Jake Locker is done for the season with a right foot injury.
His replacement, veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick, is eager to get his team off to another of those fast starts against Indy.
When things are doing well, you can feel that momentum and feels like the football field gets slanted, and it gets you on a roll and you start scoring points, Fitzpatrick said. Itd be good to get that going early.
Look for the Colts to be doing that instead.
Cleveland (plus 5½)
at Cincinnati
Browns could really shake up AFC North with win. Close, but ...
New England (plus 2½) at

Akai S5000 / S6000
The Akai S5000 and S6000 feature DOS (FAT32) disk format and .WAV files as the native sample format. Stereo WAV files are treated as a single sample (instead of two mono L/R samples) allowing easier sample editing and program creation. Any standard PC WAV file can be loaded directly for instant playback from any PC formatted hard drive attached to the S5000 or S6000 - including downloaded samples available on the Internet.
Both models feature a 64-voice system, and both are upgradable to 128-voices (U.S. Version). Improved programming options allow for up to 128 multi programs to be loaded into RAM at any one time, a 'QUICKLOAD' function to load programs directly into parts, and Akai's APM (Assignable Program Modulation) which offers a comprehensive range of new filters, flexible envelope generators, LFOs and more. The S6000 also offers programmable "user keys" which can be assigned to any page for rapid access to commonly used functions.
The S5000 features eight individual analog outputs (upgradable to 16) and a stereo master analog output, while the S6000 comes equipped with 16 + 2 analog outputs. The S6000 also includes balanced stereo input jacks which are accessible by either the rear panel connectors or via the convenient jacks located on the S6000's front panel.
The front panel of the S6000 features a removable, full-function remote control panel allowing operation from a convenient location within a 30 meter range.
Samples can be recorded into RAM or directly to hard disk. Playback from either is transparent, allowing playback of long samples directly from disk without having to load them into memory. RAM is expandable to 256 MBytes and the operating system runs from easily upgradable flash ROM. Stereo digital I/0 is standard and both models are capable of handling up to 16 individual analog outputs which can be configured as stereo pairs. The S5000 and S6000 also include two SCSI ports. The Wordclock connector insures easy integration into an all-digital studio and an optional ADAT interface provides sixteen digital outputs.
Both models feature a large 320 x 240 LCD graphic display, with eight dedicated function keys running down both sides of the screen -- placing 16 of the most commonly used programming functions at the user's fingertips.
S5000 Rear
The Akai S5000 and S6000 offer a wide variety of storage options, including the ability to replace the standard 3.5" floppy drive with an optional, internal Zip(TM) drive. The S6000 also offers an expansion slot on the front panel for an additional 3.5" drive. The S5000/S6000 has been used by Underworld, Nick Rhodes (Duran Duran), Max Graham and ATB.

Forget scsi drivers. Mine has 120GB IDE HD, and to mount it i got a rather cheap scsi ide converter found on the web. And...yes, usb interface + aksys tend to be instable after an hour of work, but you will learn to live with this. Great sampler even in 2012.
You shouldn't have too much problems with finding a HD that doesn't make a 747 noise. I was concerned about this when I read your comment, but when my S5000 equipped with a 72gb drive arrived, I thought it was broken, as the whole device made less sound (notice I don't use the term "noise") than my laptop. Good luck.

I love Comment Spammers, they always have something nice to say, well, almost always. Sometimes they are so complimentary I'm tempted to give in and give them the link they want.

News about two up-coming website projects
A quick glance at the posts on this blog would give you the impression that all I do is watch TV and mess around on Pinterest, well that's not completely true.
Apart from my freelance writing work, I'm working on two new projects of my own – and they need a lot of content, so if you would like to get involved do let me know!
Today's linkbait is brought to you by Tinkebell who turned her cat into a handbag
This week's Samantha Brick is a Dutch artist who goes by the name of Tinkebell. She tells her story in The Guardian's Comment Is Free (CiF) section under the headline: Online anonymity: you want me dead, but who are you anyway?
Doesn't sound too Brick-ish does it? But this woman is even more provocative, because her victim status doesn't come from a mis-placed Titanic sized ego (well, actually it does, in a different way), she is a victim because (get the violins out) lots of people hate her because she killed her cat and had it turned into a handbag for an art project.

News that Google is rolling out new ways to penalise "over-optimised websites", as reported here by The Drum, is news only because Matt Cutts has been talking about it recently – in fact, this has been Google's focus for a long time now.
If your website is over-optimised then you've been getting bad advice from your SEOs; search marketing should be just as much about thinking about your human visitors as the search engine robots. Are you at risk of being penalised?

Social networking, blogging? Remember it's like yelling in the street
Recently an idiotic woman was jailed after she took to Facebook to contact someone involved in the court case that she was acting as a juror on. Hot on the news of this, several people have been discovered indiscreetly tweeting about court cases and this has led to a broader debate about whether Twitter should be allowed in court.
For god's sake it's simple isn't it? Why can't commentators grasp that Twitter and all the other social networks are just different media and it's how you use them that matters?
Stepping stones towards having a successful blog for business
I think every company should have a blog, don't you agree?
A successful blog should answer all the following needs in one fell swoop -
- SEO – mid and long-tail search terms especially
- Engagement – use your blog to support other initiatives, especially Social Media campaigns
- Conversion – use your blog to drive traffic directly to point-of-sale & sign-up pages
It's quick and simple to set up a blog with a basic template, but more legwork needs to be put in to make a blog as effective as possible – as this blog demonstrates, it was pulled together in a matter of days and is "ok", but there's a lot more to be done.

Tonawanda News — JAMESTOWN — The Tonawanda baseball team had Fredonia right where it wanted it in the seventh inning of the Class B championship game on Friday night at Dietrich Field: within striking distance.
The Warriors had made their name this season with comeback win after comeback win, and with no outs in the final inning, Tonawanda had the tying run on base and the No. 2, 3 and 4 hitters set to take their hacks.
But on this night, against a dominant sophomore lefty pitcher for the Hillbillies, the Warriors couldn't summon the magic one more time. Sophomore Cody McGregor and senior Jared Zellner struck out and Steven Warthling, who played the final game of a historic athletic career, grounded out, and Tonawanda fell, 3-1 against Fredonia.
"Offensively we really couldn't get our bats going at all to be honest with you," said Tonawanda coach John Frank. "All sectionals long we weren't really able to do so, (but) we came up clutch in the three previous games and found a way to win."
Against the Hillbilies and Cam Voss, who has never lost a game in his high school career, the Warriors managed only three hits in seven innings. Voss finished with eight strike outs and displayed the ability to regroup even on the rare occasions his control started to slip for a batter or two.
In the fifth inning Tonawanda loaded the bases with a single from Andrew Ball and a pair of walks by Ben Stich and Bret Kelly. McGregor drew a bases loaded walk to plate the only Warriors run, part of an eight-pitch sequence of all balls from Voss.
But the sophomore shut the door the rest of the way, and Fredonia coach Vince Gullo said he couldn't have asked for a better outing from his star lefty.

The women and ownership myth
"We are finding that women have a slightly lower interest in ownership than men, and that might be partly because they have
another full-time job to do when they get home," Gerber says. "But still, more than half of the transactions we're doing in
the Northwest now are to women. And that's a huge thing."
National data offers more evidence that women veterinarians are nearly as interested in ownership today as their male counterparts.
The 2012 dvm360 State of the Profession Survey shows 27 percent of women and 32 percent of men saying that veterinary practice ownership
is one of their aspirations.
"I've been involved in a handful of transactions with working mothers who want to own practices in such a way as to form partnerships,"
Glassman says. "So you get two working mothers who are trying to split their time between home and work who will jointly own
a practice and run it as a single-doctor practice, splitting the time there. There are creative and innovative ways to find
practice ownership for those who are struggling with life balance issues."
The trouble with startups
In a market where buyers overwhelm sellers, buyers are growing impatient, Glassman and Gerber both say. A shortage of practices
to buy coupled with a lending community willing to finance startups could offer another avenue for frustrated buyers. Glassman
says he knows a lender who financed nearly 60 startups in the New York area in 2012.
"You only see that number because those are potential buyers who have no practice to purchase," he says. "The marketplace
is looking at those startups as an alternative. And banks are willing to lend."
Gerber says he thinks that could potentially dilute the market. "It's not a healthy thing," he says. In areas where the market
is already covered, a new veterinary practice coming in could make a significant impact.
"Buyers are frustrated," Glassman says. "And when buyers can't find practices to purchase, if they have that ownership or
entrepreneurial drive, they'll consider a startup."
This trend could serve as a cautionary tale for sellers who've been trying to time the market just right. "If you're thinking
of retirement, don't delay too long, because there are some other factors out there that could potentially hurt your value

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Chris Petrie, as well as his wife, Christine. Petrie is the Chairman of the Board of the Stoughton Chamber of Commerce, as well as General Manager of in Stoughton. The Norfolk resident has also been the lead singer for "Insufficient Funds," and performed last night at the for the food pantries at the Portuguese National Club.
Anne Havlin of St. Anthony's Free Market, a part of Immaculate Conception Church, presented a birthday cake to Chris last night. Petrie, and his co-worked Joel Honig, have been active volunteers for the food pantry.
Happy birthday also to Ellen Greene, co-Executive Director of the , the newest member of the Board of Directors of the Stoughton Chamber of Commerce. And to Michelle Jackson, Senior Programs Coordinator at the Striar Old Colony YMCA. Jackson is the one who runs the hugely successful summer camp program at the Y.
TOWN GOES ONE FOR THREE ON AUCTION: Town Manager Francis T. Crimmins, Jr. and Town Treasurer Tom Rorrie were on site for all three town auctions Friday morning. It was an attempt by Crimmins to take vacated property and put it on the tax rolls.
The town batted .333, going 1 for 3. Auctioneer Paul Talkowski, President of Daniel J. Flynn and Company auctioneers, tried to start the bidding on the Gay Street parcel at $150,000. With no takers on the 2.4 acre residential parcel at that price, he asked the bidders who had signed up to start the bidding. Local developer Scott Hersee, a member of the Redevelopment Authority, opened the bidding at $100,000. None of the other registered bidders (there were at least six) would go any higher.
The auctioneer conferred with town representatives, and the bid was accepted. Attorney Jena Caruso Munoz, representing the Town through the Town Treasurer's office, had explained previously that bidders would also pay a 10% auction fee to Flynn and Company, $1,000 in attorney's fees, current 2011 taxes, and anticipated 2012 property taxes, plus a $125 fee to record the deed. So, all in all, Hersee had to write out a rather large check for the "as is" tract.
When this reporter asked him how many lots he expected to develop there, he said, "I'm going to have my engineers look into it, and come up with a plan." Hersee is currently renovating the old Ashmont Discount/Rainbow Flea Market building on Washington Street, as well as building a residential/commercial project at the end of Morton Street, across from Whiplash nightclub, and the Rairoad Station parking lot.
The second auction site was a 10+ acre parcel, zoned commercial, on Central Street, adjacent to Clotida Street, and across from the Holy Sepulcher Cemetery. Despite a direct abutter attending the auction of this parcel, no bidders actually signed up. Talkowski announced that the auction for this property would be "postponed indefinitely."
The third and last auction parcel, on Central Street, at the Brockton line, also drew abutters. Stanley Urban and his son Marty, owners of neighboring F.H. Peterson Machine Company, were interested in picking up the 3.6 acre parcel to help protect the company from any development next door. "We bought the neighboring 7 acres from the estate of Al Peterson," Stanley explained, "and we bought the company itself from bankrupcy court. We had tried to directly purchase this land from the Town of Stoughton three years ago, but it fell through."
Marty lives nearby on South Street in Stoughton. Talkowski tried to start the bidding at $150,000, but it started at $25,000. It stalled at $47,000, the last bid by Urban. After consulting with Crimmins and Rorrie, Talkowski announced that they would take no less than $100,000. When no one offered that amount, the auction was "postponed indefinitely."
Seeing that Urban had no plans to build on the wet property, I asked Crimmins if he thought maybe getting something for it, was better than nothing. "We're confident in the future we will get a fair price for the property. We're not in the real estate business, and we don't want to give it away."
So, bottom line, the town still owns 2 properties, and has another $100,000 going into the General Fund. Only 600 properties to go...
STOUGHTON LOOKING FOR NEW TREASURER AND ASSESSOR: Town Treasurer Thomas Rorrie is retiring at the end of June, he told About Town yesterday during a town land Auction. Rorrie has been a wise man. For 25 years, he has avoided the muddy pit of town politics, and just done the job. As he leaves, he'll be doing over 5 million dollars in bonds, converting more expensive short-term issues into less expensive long term bonds, saving the town money.
Rorrie lost his father recently, and his mother is ill, so he's taking time off to re-assess things and spend time with family. "I need some time to myself," the soft-spoken financial expert told me. We wish him luck, as well as condolences on his loss. Also leaving town is Paula Keefe, who served as Assessor for many years, and after retiring, came back as Interim Assessor. Her last day was yesterday (April 29), and we wish her happiness and good health in the future.
STOUGHTON TEACHERS RALLY TUESDAY NIGHT FOR FAIR CONTRACT: Hundreds of Stoughton teachers are planning a rally on Tuesday, May 3 at 6:30 p.m. to support the negotiating team for the Stoughton Teachers Association. They plan to meet in front of , where they will march to the school and cheer on members of the bargaining team as they enter the building for the 7 p.m. bargaining session, "to show support and advocate for a.fair contract."
The contract between the 341-member STA and the School Committee expired on August 31, 2010. The bargaining session on March 3 will be the 26th such session. According to the STA, the major issues remain wages and health insurance. In a prepared statement to the press, STA President Sue Cogliano wrote, "We are holding this rally to let our bargaining team members know that we fully support their efforts to secure a fair contract for Stoughton's educators – one that shows respect for the work we do teaching the students of this community."
The STA has been having different schools sign a petition and having it read at school committee meetings. The petitions have been signed by virtually every teacher at each school. School Committee Chairman Tom Colburn has said at school committee meetings that he expected to have a new contract agreed to "sometime soon." For the STA, it has dragged on all school year, and isn't soon enough.
OPEN HOUSE: You're Invited to an Open House at the , 1561 Washington Street, on Rt. 138 in Stoughton. It's happening on Sunday, May 1, from 1-4 p.m. Membership information and tours will be available. Contact Elliot Hansen at 781-344-9633 for more information.

Another tick on the Russian River –tion Quest that I started quite awhile back! Big thanks goes out to estocker for sending me this one a LONG time back! Shared this one at aasher's wedding reception with as many people in the wedding party as I could find! Served from growler into a Boulevard tulip. Poured a ruby red-brown with a two finger off-white head that subsided to a half finger slowly. Maintained nice lacing throughout the glass. The aroma was comprised of sweet malt, dark fruit, bread, and banana. The flavor was of sweet mat, fruit, banana, bread, and dark fruit. It had a medium feel on the palate with medium carbonation. Overall this was a good brew. As far as quadruples go, this was a fairly solid one. All the proper flavors and aromas going on in all the right intensities. There was absolutely no sign of the alcohol in this one at all. This was definitely a scary aspect as I'm sure the right person could crush a 64 oz growler without a problem. I'm just glad I had help that all seemed to enjoy it as well. Definitely worth trying if you get the chance to do so.

A - Served a brown-ruby color with a finger of finger of frothy off-white head. Fades at a normal pace leaving behind some nice lacing.
S - Aroma is full of sweet dark fruits, raisins, dark cherries, and plums. Also some candi sugar and rich sweet malts. Bit of booze comes through as well.
T - Starts off with some sweet rich dark fruits with plum and raisin coming through. Some candi sugar and a bit of earthiness. Through the middle, some dark cherries and a touch of booze starts to come through. Finish is a mix of rich dark fruits, candi sugar, and some booze alongside with a touch of Belgian yeast.
M - Full bodied with moderate carbonation. Smooth with a big sweet warming finish.
D - Very drinkable. Nice balance of big sweetness and warming earthy flavors. Not overly boozy.

On tap at RR. 1 of my favorite styles so of course had to save room for a full pour of this one.
A-Lacks the thick tan head of most quads. This 1 is much weaker with a foam that quickly breaks down. Color is dark brown but transparent.
S-Weak notes of sweet malts, not nearly as complex as the good Belgians.
T-Definitely a subdued quad. Notes of raisin and other sweet malts. Not much else really there. Missing the yeast fruity esters here.
M-Alcohol is a little more evident than the greats. Fairly thin body.
O-A decent quad but is missing the complexity of my Belgian favorites like St. Bernardus and the alcohol is clearly present. Yet to find a good American version of this style.

Served on-draught into a stemgoblet at Russian River's taproom in Santa Rosa during their Pliny the Younger release event. Reviewed from notes. Expectations were high due to the brewery - which is a favourite from the Americas, and the style - which is one of my favourites.
A: Pours a half finger head of good thickness, nice cream, and abysmal retention. Colour is a solid black.
Sm: Candi sugar, vanilla, plums, chocolate, caramel, and toffee. A moderate strength aroma.
T: Plums, candi sugar, some vanilla, caramel, and toffee. Balanced and full bodied, with delightful complex layering. It's good, but far from the best quad I've had. Very well done for an American quad. Well built all around, and very nicely balanced.
Mf: Smooth and wet, suiting the flavours quite well. Could use more cream. Neither too thick nor too thin.
Dr: Very drinkable for the high ABV. A lovely little quad, but not the best I've had - even amongst American quads.

PHOENIX, AZ - JULY 27: Andrew Cashner #34 of the San Diego Padres rounds the bases after hitting a home run against the Arizona Diamondbacks at Chase Field on July 27, 2013 in Phoenix, Arizona. (Photo by Norm Hall/Getty Images)
Not too long ago, I asked Padres starting pitcher Andrew Cashner if he liked the Designated Hitter. He said he hated it. I asked why.
"Put your nine best athletes on the field," Cashner said.
He believes he's one of the best athletes available. There's really no way I can argue with him.
Saturday night in Arizona, Cashner hit his first Major League home run, and pitched six innings to earn his 7th win of the season, in the Padres' 12-3 win over the Diamondbacks.
Cashner has nine hits this year, tied for 5th-best in the bigs among pitchers, and is hitting .300.
He got plenty of help from the rest of the order, too. Chris Denorfia and Chase Headley also hit home runs, Yonder Alonso had three hits and drove in four, and Carlos Quentin had a pair of hits, drove in two runs, and scored two more.
After not winning a series on the road since May, the Padres can win back-to-back road series on Sunday behind Tyson Ross. Arizona counters with LHP Patrick Corbin, who's a shoddy 12-1 this year.

Welcome to Pest Pro Thermal
..introduces the 2G solution to bedbug control™ and eradication…
….the new BugWiser™ G2
|• Systems cost 25-45% less than comparable competitors
• Programmable heaters weigh less than 75 pounds
• Removable generator set for hard-to-reach jobs
• Power options to 10 kilowatts per heater
|• One-man setup and operation
• Practical,safe 240 volt 1ph electrical system
• Heaters can draw power from genset or building
• Lightweight trailers can be pulled by any pickup
BugWiser™ bedbug heaters are available separately or as part of a complete PestPro thermal treatment system.
PestPro Thermal™ treatment systems are easy to use and include on-site training at a real treatment site with an experienced pest professional!
If you are buying an electric heat treatment system for bedbugs, two decisions will define how your system performs for you–the operating voltage and heater power. 120-volt systems are the simplest but require more standard 15-amp circuits than you will ever find in a residence. 460-volt systems minimize the size of power cords, but 460 voltage is serious electricity and 460v systems can't use any power from the building. 240-volt systems offer most of the advantages of 460 voltage, but also allow you the flexibility to use power from the building or a genset.
Heater power is the other decision you face. Underpowered systems mean that heatup will waste valuable time. On the other hand, overpowered single heaters are unnecessary overkill for small jobs like apartments, dorms and hotel rooms, and they can make it difficult to evenly distribute heat throughout a multi-room site. Moderately-powered, multi-heater systems solve these problems.
PestPro offers the best thermal solution to your bedbug eradication needs, with complete systems sized from 10 to 50 kilowatts and modular upgrades to 60 and 80 Kw. Our systems utilize 240v power exclusively, and unlike some manufacturers who rate their systems based on generator size rather than heating power, our systems deliver the full, rated heating capability to the treatment area. We would be happy to discuss your treatment requirements and how one of our systems can satisfy your needs and put you into the lucrative thermal treatment market.

The Frontiers Prevention Project (FPP) was implemented from 2002-2008 by the Alliance to conduct targeted prevention interventions for populations placed at high-risk of HIV infection and transmission. FPP was a US$25m project supported by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Through evaluation, FPP has been proven to have made a significant contribution to reducing HIV infections in relatively low-prevalence countries that were put at risk by the growing HIV pandemic. The Alliance's FPP empowered people placed at high risk to HIV infections by improving advocacy within these groups, changing policies that affect these groups, and increasing community awareness.
The evaluation, published in the BMC Public Health journal in August, showed that the FPP reduced risk-taking behaviours and STI incidence, thereby resulting in a lower HIV incidence among most at risk populations, and secondarily among the general population. It also showed that by involving beneficiaries in program planning and dissemination community ownership of the programme and thus its sustainability after the FPP finished increased (the FPP has since been subsumed within the Avahan: India AIDS initiative, also supported by The Gates Foundation).
The Alliance's well-defined sets of interventions, focused on population groups most affected by the epidemic, resulted in reduced incidence of HIV amongst these populations, thereby curbing the potential spread of the epidemic into the broader population. The evaluation stated that 'these positive results suggest that a strong community component may significantly potentiate prevention impact.' The article calls for more robust evaluation in the future to characterize and quantify the benefits and costs of different approaches for community engagement and mobilization to accompany the provision of prevention services.

Keene police take delivery of controversial armored vehicle
The Keene Police Department now has a LENCO BearCat Special Missions armored vehicle like this one. (COURTESY)
KEENE - After a controversial vote to accept Homeland Security funds last spring for the purchase of the town's SWAT vehicle, the Keene police department placed its BearCat into service Tuesday.
The department took delivery of its Special Mission Rescue Vehicle from Lenco Industries on Nov. 16, however the lone piece of equipment that did not come standard on it, a piece radio, had to be installed. According to a press release, after the radio's installation, the vehicle was delivered.
The Keene City Council voted to accept a $285,933 Homeland Security grant in December - without a public hearing - to buy the armored vehicle. Some claimed it was a waste of public tax dollars while others said it was not needed in a small town such as Keene.
After a public outcry, the Council held a vote at its March 1 meeting in City Hall. There, councilors voted 9-4 in favor of accepting the grant, defeating councilor Terry Clark's motion to rescind the grant.
"It's an armored vehicle, not an armed vehicle and there's a big difference," Keene Police Capt. Brian Costa said in describing the BearCat last spring.
The vehicle's manufacturer, Lenco, provided initial training, which will be ongoing.
The BearCat was purchased through Department of Homeland Security and the New Hampshire Department of Safety.
"We hope that if a situation arises I'd be glad to have it," Costa said Tuesday. "The hope is always that they don't arise. That why we have police departments for when they do."
Costa said the vehicle will be introduced to the public in the near future.

SAN DIEGO — Two weeks before he was expected to return, All-Pro tight end Kellen Winslow may rejoin the Chargers when they play host Sunday to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Winslow had been on track to break the NFL's single-season receiving record when his knee was injured last October against the Raiders. Until Monday, it had not been expected that would be able to play before the season's eighth game. And that was the most optimistic projection. Some doctors who had examined Winslow cautioned that he might have missed the entire season.
