StanChart to give update on turnaround plans as problems pile up
LONDON, Nov 10 (Reuters) – Standard Chartered boss
Peter Sands has his work cut out to convince investors he can
turn around the Asia-focused bank after three profit warnings,

restructuring plan he unveiled a year ago is still relevant and
goes far enough.
UK prepares forex fines for six banks on Wednesday -sources
LONDON, Nov 7 (Reuters) – British regulators investigating
allegations of collusion and manipulation in the foreign
exchange market could fine a group of six banks as early as next
Wednesday, people familiar with the matter said.
The six banks are Switzerland's UBS, U.S. banks JP

pounds (2.37 billion US dollar).
Watchdog cuts extra capital requirements for UBS, Credit Agricole
LONDON (Reuters) – Switzerland's UBS and France's Credit Agricole have been deemed by regulators as less important to the global financial system than a year ago and will not have to hold as much extra capital as previously forecast.

UK banks face break-up threat as competition probe launched
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain's big banks could be broken up after the country's competition watchdog launched a full-blown investigation into services for small business customers and personal accounts because of a lack of competition.
It marks the latest step by authorities to break the dominance of the country's big four lenders and is likely to keep the industry in the political spotlight ahead of next year's election and beyond.
Wells Fargo sticks to what it knows in overseas push
LONDON, Nov 5 (Reuters) – Wells Fargo & Co, the
world's biggest bank by stock market value, remains on the
lookout to buy loan portfolios in Europe but is in no hurry to
snap up an ailing bank to speed up its international growth, a

touted as a possible buyer of banks around the world.
Biggest banks brace for poisoned chalice of a place at the top table
LONDON, Nov 5 (Reuters) – About 30 banks will be formally

rather dubious honour costing them billions of dollars each in
additional reserves and placing them under increased regulatory
Policymakers have leaned on the world's biggest banks to

LONDON (Reuters) – HSBC's profits fell short of expectations in the third quarter after the bank set aside $1.8 billion for misconduct settlements and compensation for customers, including a potential fine for rigging currency markets.
The provision and a jump in HSBC's everyday compliance costs show the impact of regulators' increasing efforts to clamp down on bad behaviour in the global banking industry that contributed to the financial crisis.
HSBC sets aside $378 million for forex probe
LONDON (Reuters) – HSBC Holdings (HSBA.L: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) has set aside $378 million for a potential settlement with Britain's financial watchdog for alleged manipulation of currency markets as the bank reported a 12 percent fall in underlying profit in the third quarter.

Bank of England increases lenders' risk buffers, but less than expected
LONDON (Reuters) – The Bank of England told British banks on Friday they will be required to hold more capital to guard against the risks of bad loans, but the new measures were less stringent than many had expected.
Shares in Barclays (BARC.L: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) — one of the banks which analysts had feared might be hit hardest by the new rules — rose a hefty 7 percent on the news, and shares in Lloyds Banking Group (LLOY.L: Quote, Profile, Research, Stock Buzz) also gained.

Her novel, Seraglio (Nan A. Talese/Doubleday, 2003), was called "both serious and enchanting" by Publishers Weekly. The New York Times Sunday Book Review said it was "a Horatio Alger story … and a micro-history of the Ottoman Empire." In her research for the book, Ms. Wallach traveled to Turkey where she worked with experts in history, art and the Topkapi Palace.
Ms. Wallach is the author of Chanel: Her Style and Her Life (Nan A. Talese/Doubleday, 1998), the story of the 20th century's most important female fashion designer. The book received a three-page review by John Updike in the New Yorker, and was recommended by Harper's Bazaar, Marie Claire and Town & Country.
Over the course of the past fifteen years, much of it spent living and working in the Middle East, Ms. Wallach has co-authored Arafat: In the Eyes of the Beholder (Carol Publishing, 1991, updated 1997), a biography of Yasser Arafat ; The New Palestinians (Prima, 1992), a look at leading figures in the West Bank and Gaza ; and Still Small Voices (Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1988), the personal stories of ten Israelis and Palestinians during the intifada . Her work on the Arafat biography took her to Tunis, where she spent three months interviewing Arafat and other PLO officials; Egypt, where she met with PLO officials, Egyptian officials and Arafat family members; Syria, where she interviewed radical anti-Arafat Palestinian groups and high Syrian officials; Jordan, where, in addition to meetings with Arafat confidantes and family members, she had an extensive interview with His Majesty, the late King Hussein; and Israel, where she interviewed leading officials and met with the Defense Minister, the late Yitzhak Rabin.
As a frequent contributor to The Washington Post Magazine from 1982-1987, and as a contributor to Smithsonian Magazine and other periodicals, Janet Wallach has written cover story profiles of Queen Noor of Jordan; First Lady of Egypt Jihan Sadat; Iraqi Ambassador Nizar Hamdoon; Reza Pahlavi, would-be Shah of Iran; and Saudi entrepreneur Adnan Khashoggi.
Ms. Wallach is a Woodrow Wilson Institute Visiting Fellow and has taught at Bradford College; Earlham College; Longwood College; Ohio Wesleyan University; Stetson College; St. Olaph's College; Susquehana College; and West Virginia Wesleyan College.
Janet Wallach has been a guest speaker at Arizona State University (T.E. Lawrence Symposium); the Carnegie Council on Ethics and International Affairs; Chautauqua Institution; The Cosmopolitan Club; The Explorers' Club, Harmonie Club; Meridien House; the National Arts Club; Quinipiac College; St. Olaph's College (Nobel Peace Prize Symposium); Wellesley College; Women's Democratic Club; Women's Republican Club; and Yale University.
She has appeared as a guest commentator on various television programs for the Cable News Network, A&E "Biography," MSNBC, National Geographic, and network talk shows as well as on BBC and C-Span "Booknotes." She co-hosted a nationally syndicated program, "Private Lives; Public People" on the Lifetime cable network.
Janet Wallach is a founding director and president emeritus of Seeds of Peace, a non-profit organization created by her late husband John Wallach. This year-round educational and leadership training program begins by bringing outstanding teen-agers from countries in conflict to a summer camp in Maine; it continues with follow-up workshops and seminars in the region, and with conferences in the U.S. and elsewhere. More than 4000 teenagers have graduated from Seeds of Peace. The program focuses on Israelis and Arabs, and also brings together Indians and Pakistanis, and Afghans, as well as American youngsters. In October 2000 Seeds of Peace received a Unesco peace prize.
Janet Wallach was born in New York City and received a B.A. degree from New York University. She has two sons, David Allyn and Michael Wallach.

DRI Corp. announced its Mobitec AB subsidiary in Herrljunga, Sweden, received an order for Mobitec electronic information display systems from an original equipment manufacturer on behalf of a transit operator in Western Europe.
"This Mobitec EIDS order is strategically significant for several reasons, not the least of which is that it is our first order for this Western European transit system operator through this OEM," said David L. Turney, DRI's chairman of the board/CEO. "This particular Western European location also is a showcase transit market position. Deliveries are expected to conclude in fourth quarter 2011."
The order is valued at approximately $550 thousand.
ABQ RIDE is looking to model its plan after the Greater Cleveland Regional Transit Authority's HealthLine, which is sponsored through a hospital partnership. Construction on the so-called ART system could begin in May 2016 with an in-service date of September 2017.
The service, which costs $6 a ride, asks riders to download the Leap app, creating an account, uploading a photo and adding a credit card that enables them to pay via a QR code.
Agencies ordering the company's products, which are now in at least half of all new U.S. and Canadian transit buses, include L.A. Metro, Chicago Transit Authority and New York City Transit.
The contract includes a firm order for 35 XN40 and 20 XN60 Xcelsior buses, with an option for another 150 XN40 and 100 XN60 over the next five years. All buses are to be powered by CNG.
The decision comes after the agency conducted an analysis and product review period. Implementation of the project began in February and all work is expected to be completed by the end of April.

Help with my kitchen remodel layout
The attached is my proposed new improved kitchen layout. Currently the space on the left contains a small round dining table and no cabinets. I have a formal dining room which is now open to the kitchen space after changing the location of the doorway and expanding it into an 8 foot wide arched opening.
I do not want to move the location of the sink, dishwasher, range or refrigerator. The LG french doored refrigerator is counter depth and only a few years old. It will stay. The current range is an old glass top electric which will be replaced by a 30â gas range, probably an NXR. The gas line is already installed and the vented hood (Kobe) is on order. The dishwasher and sink will be replaced but not relocated.
What I have done with the layout is to open up the space between the interior of the âÂÂUâ by adding the trash cabinet and the 36â corner cabinet where there is currently a standard blind corner cabinet.
I have added an overhang to the peninsula with enough room for 2 counter height stools. There are just 2 of us living in the house and we have the nearby formal dining room for entertaining and a large patio where we eat about 8 months out of the year.
Additionally I have added the row of 18â deep cabinets along the side wall. These need to be shallow in order to stay out of the sliding glass door opening noted on the drawing.
My biggest problem with the layout is the short (37âÂÂ) blind corner cabinet. As it is currently laid out, it will only have a 12 in wide access door. I donâÂÂt mind stuffing it full of seldom used items but it will not be very accessible or elegant. I really want the pull out spice rack which is why I had to shorten the blind corner cabinet. Does anyone every just seal the corner off and not use that space. Am I missing any other ideas?
Yes, a lot of people do seal off the corner. That's probably what I would do here. Then you can have a spice drawer instead of a spice cabinet. Imagine pulling out the drawer and seeing all your neatly labeled spices smiling up at you, instead of pulling out the pullout and crouching down so you can look at the spices. You can even do a four or five stack drawer set there so you have multiple shallow spice drawers.
I like the addition of the shallow base cabinets.
Make sure your seating overhang is at least 15" deep. Otherwise, your sitters will not be comfortable - they will have to bend over awkwardly to reach the counter when sitting there because their knees are hitting the cabinet and the counter doesn't come forward enough for them.
I don't think moving the DW involves much plumbing at all. It's tied in to the sink by flexible hoses and would be a piece of cake to move to the other side of the sink. Are you worried about the electrical outlet for it? I only mention this because it would be better for your layout to swap the DW and trash.
Definitely close off the corner! With all the storage space you are adding to the left, you don't need space you can't easily access. That allows you to increase the width of the cabs on the peninsula. I recommend putting drawers there instead of doors.
If you are really feeling daring, close off both cabinets. Move the DW to the other side of the sink, and with the 12" remaining (after eliminating the 36" left corner), you can put in a narrow cabinet for cookie sheets and cutting boards. Next to the stove, you can put a stack of drawers, as tracie.erin suggested. You may lose some measured space, but I think you'd gain a lot more in easily usable, functional space.
Thanks all of you for your comments to date. I am mostly left handed and the primary cook in the house. The way I use the kitchen and do the prep, the trash is in the correct location for me, but I will think about the swap and ask my wife for comments.
Currently the trash bin is under the sink but when I work in the existing kitchen, I usually place it on the floor in the location where the trash pull out is planned. I actually have never given much thought to this part of of kitchen planning, probably due to the fact that I spent the last 20 years living in Egypt and cooking in a small miserable kitchen. The idea of having all of this floor space to play with is almost overwhelming!

Rebels suffer record loss to Sharks
March 24, 2013
Ryan Kankowski produced a powerful performance against the Rebels
© Getty Images
Melbourne Rebels have suffered a record Super Rugby drubbing with the Sharks running in 10 tries in a 64-7 bloodbath in Durban.
The Rebels flew to South Africa confident of cracking their first ever win abroad but instead were embarrassed by the rampant Sharks. Their previous biggest defeat was 53-3 at the hands of Queensland in March 2011.
The home side had only managed three tries in three rounds leading into the match but eclipsed that in the 34th minute when skipper Keegan Daniel charged across the line for try number four.
Compounding the misery for the Rebels, star playmaker James O'Connor was yellow-carded in the second half for a lifting tackle which could face further scrutiny.
The proud home side was shocked last week when the Brumbies ran in four first-half tries in their 29-10 victory and made their intentions clear from kick-off.
Melbourne skipper Gareth Delve was penalised at the breakdown in the first minute of play although Pat Lambie missed the kick.
The Sharks didn't have to wait long though with points on the board in the sixth minute. Following a Rebels handling error, Daniel made a break from the back of the scrum and the Sharks swarmed, with fullback Louis Ludik touching down.
The Rebels had no answers against the Sharks (video available only in Australia)%]
Two tries came after the Sharks pack drove across the line following a line-out, with the Rebels unable to stop the dominance of their big forwards.
They were out to 24-0 by the halftime break thanks to Daniel's own try, with credit going to the Sharks who didn't miss a tackle in that 40 minutes. The Rebels in contrast had missed seven, with 10 turnovers and a 10-5 penalty count giving coach Damien Hill some miserable reading.
The second half couldn't have started any worse for Melbourne. Hooker Kyle Cooper scored in the 41st minute, followed by tries in the 44th, 47th and 50th which brought the tally to 50-0.
The scoreboard ticked over for a further two tries, with Ludik getting his second followed by Riaan Viljoen, who brought up No.10 for the first time in Sharks history.
Delve was held up over the line in the 63rd minute before Scott Higginbotham finally opened the Rebels' account in the 68th minute after halfback Nick Phipps took a quick tap and passed on to the Wallaby backrower.
Delve described the loss as a "kick in the teeth".
"We need to go away and look at ourselves," Delve said. "There's not many positives we can take from, but we need to go away and pick through the bones and make sure we finish the tour on a high."
The Rebels next face the Cheetahs in Bloemfontein.

Senate's GOP leader reserving judgment on possible Hagel defense secretary bid
WASHINGTON — The Senate's Republican leader said Sunday he is reserving judgment on whether to support former Sen. Chuck Hagel, the front-runner to be the next defense secretary, and predicted that his former colleague would face serious question about his stands on Iran and Israel.
President Barack Obama, who returned to the White House on Sunday after his vacation in Hawaii, may round out his new national security leadership team this coming week, with a nomination for Pentagon chief expected and a pick to lead the Central Intelligence Agency possible.
A congressional aide said Senate Democrats have been given a heads-up from the White House that Hagel's selection is imminent. The aide was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said any defense nominee must have "a full understanding of our close relationship with our Israeli allies, the Iranian threat, and the importance of having a robust military."
McConnell told ABC's "This Week" that Hagel, a Nebraska Republican who left the Senate in 2009, has "certainly been outspoken in foreign policy and defense over the years. The question we will be answering, if he's the nominee, is do his views make sense for that particular job?"
McConnell said he would "wait and see how the hearings go and see whether Chuck's views square with the job he would be nominated to do." He added: "I'm going to take a look at all the things that Chuck has said over the years and review that, and in terms of his qualifications to lead our nation's military."
Obama, in an interview that aired last Sunday on NBC's "Meet the Press" called Hagel "a patriot" who "has done extraordinary work" in the Senate and on an intelligence advisory board.
Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, the second-ranking Senate Democrat, told CNN's "State of the Union" that Hagel "is a serious candidate if the president chooses to name him."
Hagel has criticized discussion of a military strike by either the U.S. or Israel against Iran. He also has backed efforts to bring Iran to the table for talks on future peace in Afghanistan. Some lawmakers have been troubled by his comments and actions on Israel, including his reference to the "Jewish lobby" in the United States.
"This is a controversial pick," Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., told CNN. "He is an antagonistic figure when it comes to the state of Israel. It's a signal you're sending to Iran at the worst possible time and to our allies."
Obama has nominated Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., as his next secretary of state, in what was the president's first step in filling out his second term Cabinet and national security team.
Kerry, as well as the nominees for the Pentagon and CIA, must be confirmed by the Senate.

Yugyd Va National Park
|Югыд ва
|Yugyd Va National Park
|Komi Republic, Russia
|62°25′N 58°47′E / 62.417°N 58.783°ECoordinates: 62°25′N 58°47′E / 62.417°N 58.783°E
|18,917 square kilometers
|April 23, 1994
Yugyd Va National Park (Komi, Russian: Югыд ва) is a national park in the Komi Republic, a constituent republic of the Russian Federation, in Northeastern Europe. It is Russia's and Europe's largest national park.
The Yugyd Va park covers 18,917 square kilometers (7,304 sq mi) in the Northern Ural Mountains and adjacent foothills and flatlands. The entire park is within the Pechora River basin, i.e. west of the Europe-Asia continental divide; this means that all of it is geographically in Europe.
Administratively, the park is located in the south-eastern part of the Komi Republic, on the territory of the Vuktylsky, Intinsky and Pechorsky districts of the republic. The park headquarters is in the town of Vuktyl; branch offices operate in Pechora and Inta
In the south, the national park is adjacent to a much older Pechora-Ilych Nature Reserve.
The park was created by the Russian Government on April 23, 1994, with the goals of protection and recreational use of the taiga forests of the Northern Urals.
In 1995, the forest area including the Yugyd Va National Park and the nearby Pechora-Ilych Nature Reserve were recognized by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site, Virgin Komi Forests.
More than half of the park is covered with the taiga boreal forest; the rest is mostly tundra, found at higher elevations. There are also some 20 km² of meadows, both alpine ones and those in the river valleys.
Some 180 bird species live in the park, some of them quite rare. Twenty fish species are known to inhabit the park's rivers and lakes. There are also five amphibian species and one reptile species in the park.
Among the mammals common in the park are the mountain hare, flying squirrel, reindeer, ermine, otter, Alces alces (known as the moose in North American English and elk in British English), wolf, fox, wolverine, bear, pine marten, weasel, arctic fox.
Recreational uses of the park include rafting, boating, and hiking in the summer, Nordic skiing in winter. Limited hunting is allowed too, but permits have to be applied for several months in advance.
Due to the remote location of the park, the amount of tourism there is still quite low. According to the park's management, it is currently visited by some 4,000 tourists every year, which is much less than the park's potential recreational capacity. The management was concerned with the fact that the user fees (some 2.4 million roubles (US $100,000) a year) did not cover park expenses (some 5 million roubles (US$200,000) a year).[1]

Our special coverage of the closest race for years
Explore the personal stories of Syrian refugees in Lebanon
28 Jan 2012 23:31 GMT | Sport, Football, Spain
Real Madrid opened up a seven-point lead at the top Spain's Primera Division with a comfortable 3-1 win over bottom side Real Zaragoza as Barcelona could only draw 0-0 at lowly Villarreal on Saturday.
The league leaders recovered quickly from their midweek King's Cup quarter-final exit to arch-rivals Barca and it was Pep Guardiola's victors who seemed to suffer a hangover.
The European and Spanish champions are facing a mini-injury crisis and looked stale and short on ideas at the Madrigal when Lionel Messi and Cesc Fabregas missed gilt-edged chances.
Their pursuit of a fourth consecutive league title is now an even steeper uphill struggle as they seek to catch Jose Mourinho's men after yet another poor showing on the road.
Real's 17th win from 20 league games left them top on 52 points, with Barca second on 45. Valencia in third with 35 visit Racing Santander on Sunday.

Saturday January 28Espanyol 1-0 MallorcaVallecano 2-3 BilbaoReal Madrid 3-1 ZaragozaVillarreal 0-0 BarcelonaSunday January 29Real Betis v GranadaLevante v GetafeSociedad v GijonSantander v ValenciaMalaga v SevillaMonday January 30Osasuna v Atletico Madrid
Angel Lafita gave Zaragoza a surprise early lead at the Bernabeu after a quickly taken freekick in the 11th minute but thoughts of a first win since mid-October quickly disappeared.
Kaka squeezed a low shot under Roberto to level in the 32nd minute and Cristiano Ronaldo tapped in his 24th league goal of the campaign just after the restart.
Mesut Ozil netted with a fierce drive after a slick passing move in the 56th and Zaragoza rarely threatened again.
Manolo Jimenez's side remain six points adrift at the foot of the standings with 12 points, and are without a win in 13 outings.
Espanyol are fifth with 31 points and Athletic Bilbao sixth on 29 after both won earlier on Saturday.
Espanyol recovered from a shock midweek King's Cup quarter-final exit against tiny third-tier side Mirandes to beat 10-man Real Mallorca 1-0 at home.
Vladimir Weiss capitalised on an error from Mallorca's Israeli goalkeeper Dudu Aouate to put the Catalans in front after 18 minutes, but they failed to make the extra man count when Aouate was harshly sent off just after the break.
Spain striker Fernando Llorente scored a hat-trick as Cup semi-finalists Bilbao came from behind to win 3-2 in a pulsating encounter at Rayo Vallecano.
The powerful frontman nodded in the equaliser, controlled a long ball and turned his marker to put them 2-1 up, and headed the winner for his 11th league goal this season.

That's not a glitch. Anything killed with enough force will gib! SSG is almost guaranteed to gib zombiemen and imps. Direct hits from rockets usually gib enemies, and sometimes even splash damage will gib them.

Optimus said:
I guess, the enemy health and weapon damage in PSX TC has changed in such a way that it deems possible. Or, there is something else. The original shotgun and especially SSG force was more than enough combined to maybe gib, but if it fires 7 pellets and the first 1 or 2 is enough to bring the enemy down, the others don't add but hit the enemy behind. That could be different here.

Weapon behaviour is the same on a technical level. The only difference is that it most likely takes less damage to gib something in the PSX version as was eventually worked out and implemented in the TC.

Starting today, you will be able to put the pedal a little closer to the metal in parts of Ohio.
Legislation signed into law earlier this year pushes the speed limit from 65 mph to 70 mph along rural portions of interstate routes for both trucks and four-wheelers.
In May the Ohio Transportation Department identified the routes that will have the higher speeds, which had already been permitted along the Ohio Turnpike since 2011.
The exact location of the speed limit increases are:
Interstate 70: From the Indiana border in the west to just outside of Wheeling, W.V., in the east, excluding Dayton, Columbus and Zanesville
Interstate 71: From the Jeremiah Morrow Bridge in southwest Ohio to just south of the border of the Cuyahoga/Medina County line in the north, excluding Columbus
Interstate 75: From just outside of Toledo going south until just north of Dayton, excluding Findlay and Lima
Interstate 76: From just outside Akron going east to just west of Youngstown
Interstate 77: From just outside of Canton south to the West Virginia border
Interstate 90: From just outside of Cleveland to the Pennsylvania border
A map from the Ohio DOT shows the routes with the higher limits.

2007 Lexus ES 350 Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 11 reviews
The fifth generation of Lexus ES sedans debuts this year with the new ES 350. The new badge signifies an engine replacement, which aimed to provide a much needed power boost. Even though the new ES still competes on the lower end of the luxury scale, it has progressed beyond many of the earlier flagship LS 400s with respect to comfort, features, and performance. Both interior space and ride quality benefit from a new longer wheelbase and wider track. Many standard features have been added, but leather seating is still not on the list. Although considered optional, leather can be found in most examples.
The most significant piece of news is the arrival of a new engine. Still six cylinders, this larger 3.5-liter version boasts the most substantial power upgrade in ES series history. The 2006 horsepower rating of 218 has been updated to 272, and the sedan is now supplied with 254 pound-feet of torque. The ES's 0-60 time drops from over eight seconds down to 6.8. The troubled five-speed automatic transmission is replaced with a new six-speed. Fuel efficiency somehow manages to increase, now observed at 21/30 mpg.
Despite more impressive performance specs, drivers have continued to categorize the ES as the comfort-oriented Lexus. Some might suggest such a kindly remark is obvious...it's a Lexus! Certainly, the IS and GS models are more performance-based. What makes the ES so attractive to many is its longevity. Like the LS, the ES series has been available since day one, and eighteen years on the road has definitely engendered trust in the ES name.

I looked high and low for a source of gold leaf, BINGO! found what I needed and more, and the biggest bonus is that the customer service staff cannot be more helpful. The e-mail replies are speedy and they do what they say they will. Great job, it's like going to the neighborhood store, which is good since I live pretty much in the middle of nowhere!! THANKS THANKS THANKS.

Well...it'd be hard to say, I'd have so many questions, haha! The obvious one would be "how did I get here??" But I wouldn't really complain or wonder too much about that, I mean, there's a Pokemon world out there to enjoy, and Pokemon to catch, so why wonder how you got there when you have to make the most of what you have, anyway??
At first I'd imagine I'd feel like a stranger, but that's only for a few seconds while I find a way to immediately make myself here at home! And I'd definitely enjoy the experience of being in the X/Y world, and I think it'd be something I'd find a lot more enjoyable than just simply living in other regions! Maybe the cities in this region are bigger, more livelier and the Gym Leaders are more challenging and that would all be a wonderful experience, in the end, yeah? :3 I'd like to meet people, and having them show me around the region and stuff, it'd be awesomeeee! @_@
go ahead. fly. take flight. no one can tell you otherwise, right?

7.5 ton Trane package unit
I could use a little help from all you commercial guys out there that work on a lot of Trane package units. I was called today to look at several units ( 2-15 tons, 1-12.5 ton & 1-7.5 ton). I have done some work on their residential lines but not on the commercial stuff.
Here's what i have. 7.5 ton package unit, all electric, 230vac 3 phase, 2 circuits, one 4 ton & the other 3.5 ton. Unit was not running except for the blower. Pulled the door off, installed gauges on both compressors, checked voltage (had it) checked transformer (had 24vac out), t-stat set to cool. Working with a lot of York's, i know if they have problems, the board shuts the compressors off & they stay off until you reset the breaker. That's what i did here. Turned the breaker off.... then on. Waited about 5 minutes, compressor #1 came on, along with cond.fan. A few seconds later compressor #2 came on. After about 10 seconds, head pressure pegged my gauge, and the unit shut off. No frosting in that short of time that i could see. Back to where i started, but i know i have a restriction somewhere.
This is what I'm unfamiliar with: I couldn't find a TXV or a flow-rater anywhere. Looks like both liquid lines come straight out of the condenser, thru 2 extruded dryers (gonna pull them off tomorrow) and straight into the evap coils header pipe. Did not see any cap tubes, nothing. Am i missing something? Are they using the overall length of the liquid line as a cap tube?
Any help would be appreciated.
post model numbers if you have em.
Im pretty familiar with trane rooftop units. if its the ones im thinking of, they have multiple fixed orifice metering devices in the liquid header right at the evap coil. (i.e.. if the header has 6 lines coming out of it, you have 6 orifices.) kind of a bad design in my opinion. dont understand why they didnt just use a txv-distributer-feeder tube setup.
we've found units with plugged orifices and we just changed the entire header. (its a pain in the rear)
high side pegged the guage?
is your condenser coil clean?
stupid question but, you DID have the compressor access door on when you fired up the unit didnt you?
leave that door wide open and you will peg the highside guage when the condenser fan pulls air thru the door instead of thru the coil.
I'd check the condenser coil. it may look clean but it may be a 2 piece coil that you have to split to get clean in between the two halves. the unit is probably locking out on high head due to a dirty coil.

First a little disclosure and background. When he was a high-schooler, Tom Bailey worked at Clayton Blackmon, the beloved caterer/lunch destination at Green Hills that pretty much provided the snacks for every party in the '05 and '15 zip codes for a decade. The disclosure part is that Tom was in my class at University School, and we could always count on him to provide a slab of leftover goat cheese torta for any party. (We were definitely spoiled having Clayton Blackmon food alongside the Rotel dip and Bush kegs.)
One of Tom's jobs was making up the popular pimento cheese and another was working the counter. Country crooner Conway Twitty was a daily visitor, and he always picked up a container of that delicious pimento cheese every day for months. Before leaving on a tour in 1993, he came into the store and bought 6 pounds of cheese for the trip. A few days later, Twitty fell ill on his tour bus, supposedly with a tub of pimento cheese within arm's reach, and passed away. At least he was hopefully happy and sated when he went.
Now Bailey has partnered with Mary Coleman Palmer, (formerly Mary Coleman Blackmon) to revive a version of that popular recipe under the brand name of Professor Bailey's Spicy Pimento Cheese. While living in Texas 15 years after leaving Clayton Blackmon, Bailey started making pimento cheese again. He was reading an issue of Gourmet that included an article about putting dollops of pimento cheese on baguette slices and then sticking them under the broiler for a few minutes. Tom didn't really like the pimento cheese recipe they put in the magazine, but he couldn't remember exactly how he made it at Clayton Blackmon. He started playing around and came up with a pretty good version, and then accidentally doubled the spices and found a winner of a recipe. This is where he came up with the name for the LLC that distributes his product: Accidental Spices.
Tom has spent the past few years making up small batches of his creamy treat for friends and family, and Tom Lazzaro began to buy larger quantities to make a very popular Pimento Cheese Ravioli at his Germantown store Lazzaroli Pasta. Bouyed by his first commercial success, Bailey quit his day gig and decided to go into the cheese business full time.
One problem about getting the business was that he wasn't sure how to balance demand and supply, especially since pimento cheese is a perishable product. He wanted to come up with some way of avoiding food waste and started thinking about cheese biscuits. Tom took a basic biscuit recipe and played around with the proportions until it could be made with the pimento cheese fully integrated into the dough, and people went nuts for them. Pretty soon, instead of using the biscuits as a way of not wasting excess pimento cheese, he began making extra batches of the pimento cheese just so he could make more biscuits. There is actually more pimento cheese in the biscuit than flour, and they are really addictive.
Bailey is now selling both his cheese and the biscuits at the Nashville Farmers' Market every Thursday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to about 3 p.m. The pimento cheese sells by the half-pound for $5, and the pimento cheese biscuits are $6 for a dozen. Lazzaroli's has also started to stock both products for retail. Future planned line extensions include Professor Bailey's Spicy Pimento Cheese Mornay Sauce and Professor Bailey's Spicy Pimento Cheese Gougères, which Tom hopes will be available in time for Thanksgiving.
To learn more, follow Professor Bailey on Facebook or check out the company website which should be online within the next week or so.
Try some out and let us know what you think, and let us know your choice of the best pimento cheese in town. Is it your own recipe, or do your fondly recall Clayton-Blackmon like many of us do? Is Mrs. Grissom still the big cheese?
If you're really obsessed about the topic, you can also check out this entertaining short documentary, where a certain one-legged local pitmaster admits to adding (gasp) Miracle Whip to his recipe.

Project Pat - Talking Smart ft. Pimp C
Artist: Project Pat
Producer: DJ Paul & Juicy J
Album: Walkin' Bank Roll
Avg Rating: 3.4 ( 25 votes )
Since the mid-'90s both Project Pat and UGK's Pimp C have played the pimp game; they know "the rules." So obviously they know if you try "Talkin' smart to a pimp, you dun broke the first rule." As you would expect from collaboration between the two, Pat & Pimp are quick to show off their shine and put the 'haters' in their place. DJ Paul & Juicy J's production is softer than expected, so while you shouldn't anticipate Talkin' Smart to be a popular single (if it's even chosen as one), it works as a solid addition to Pat's sixth studio album, Walkin' Bank Roll, set to drop October 30th.

⬅ Return to School Promises In Settlement To Stop Removing Library Books For 'Advocacy Of Homosexuality'
Jade Kauffman
Jan 31st, 2013 at 6:42pm
I love what the ACLU did in the Davis school book restriction. I want everyone to be equal. I don't want anyone discriminated against. I want America to be a place where everyone is free. We're not yet. But the ACLU will change that.
Jan 31st, 2013 at 8:47pm
""I am happy that all parents will now have the chance to make their own decisions about their own children." We couldn't agree more."
I don't actually feel that I am given the chance to make decisions about my own children when they are at school. When they select library books, no one is there guiding them as they select an appropriate book to check out. If I have moral issue with the books in the library (imagine if there were a book about a subject YOU felt you didn't want YOUR children to be subject to), I am not there to help them make appropriate choices, like I can be at a public library. I have no problem with whatever books we want to make available at public libraries, but I would like there to be more discretion at a school library where innocent children are left to themselves to read whatever is in front of them.
Jan 31st, 2013 at 11:13pm
I can't even look at a picture on the Internet without being raided by a SWAT team, but you folks don't care about that. You are too busy worrying about one or two books at one school.
Jan 31st, 2013 at 11:14pm

Feb 6th, 2013 at 2:05pm
If you're terribly worried about what books your kids will find in the school library, you have some options:
1. Forbid them to get school library books and provide them with enough books yourself that they don't need to.
2. Teach them what is appropriate (although we wouldn't agree on what that is; I welcome my kids to read anything and everything they like) so they can make choices you'd approve of.
3. Homeschool them so you can control everything they are exposed to.
4. Let them grow and learn- your worldview isn't the only one, and doesn't have to be theirs.
Feb 6th, 2013 at 4:14pm
Hey SWAT raided person - MOVE or change the situation.
To others who only complain about what the school is doing/not doing for your kids: get off your butts and BE A PARENT. Get involved. Go to PTA meetings.
And to the poster above - #4 is GOLD! You Rock!
Feb 6th, 2013 at 4:17pm
To the SWAT raided person: MOVE or do something to change your situation.
To the others who complain about what the school does/does not do: BE A PARENT. Get involved. Go to the PTA meetings.
To Anonymous #5: YOU ROCK! I agree 100% with #4 in your list. I grew up after I moved away from the narrow, bigoted view I was raised with. I still love my mother, but I will not be dictated by her choice to hate.

Embracing life as an apple
There's a buzz circulating in small-town USA, and I'm not talking about the anticipation of Justin Bieber's upcoming birthday.
I came across a new item at the grocery store. There, between the strawberries and pre-cut watermelon, sat an unassuming bag containing three fruits. At first glance, I thought they were apples because that's what they looked like. Then I saw the label: "grapples."

Siggraph: New VFX Details Revealed on 'Sin City: A Dame to Kill For'
Prime Focus, also an investor in the production, completed 2,282 VFX shots
Prime Focus World presented an advanced discussion of its work on Sin City: A Dame to Kill For — a special project for the VFX company in that it also took a financial stake in the production while handling all of its 2,282 VFX shots. The film is scheduled to open on Aug. 22.
Speaking Tuesday at CG confab Siggraph in Vancouver, VFX supervisor Stefen Fangmeier and Prime Focus co-founder and chief creative director Merzin Tavaria related that look of the sequel needed to both respect the look of co-director Frank Miller's graphic novels and the 2005 Sin City film, while also "taking it to a new level." That meant balancing a look that was both stylized and photoreal, and this time with stereoscopic 3D.
The live action was shot entirely on a greenscreen in native 3D, and then there was substantial work that including 65 fully CG locations and 1,500 CG assets. The VFX team numbered roughly 700 (this number didn't include the Prime Focus staffers that handled the stereoscopic 3D conversion work), primarily in Prime Focus' Mumbai facility (which handled nearly 1,800 of the shots) and Vancouver (nearly 500 shots).
The global effort also involved work from Prime Focus' London and L.A. offices, as well as connecting to co-director Robert Rodriguez' base in Austin, Texas. According to Tavaria, this meant revamping its pipeline including asset management and its system for storing and moving data. "Working across countries and time zones was going to be — wow. But it was a labor of love," he commented.
Fangmeier showed making-of sequences from several shots in the film, from greenscreen to VFX elements to final. "It was important to have consistent quality," he emphasized.
Prime Focus World recently merged with VFX house Double Negative.

Private property near Pantaloon acquired for Rs. 3.41 crore to widen the road
In a major relief to scores of commuters traversing through Begumpet, Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) began dismantling the outer walls of the storm water drain near Pantaloon after successfully acquiring a private property on Wednesday.
Commissioner Sameer Sharma said the private owner, Kochar, has been paid Rs.3.41 crore to acquire 1003 sq.yards of roadside space atop the drain after completing all the necessary legal processes paving the way for removing a major traffic bottleneck for road widening.
After removing the various pipelines and cables belonging to the government departments and private firms, a slab would be laid for the use of traffic.
Another slab would be laid on the opposite side covering 391 sq.yards atop the drain. Mr. Sharma pointed out that the master plan which envisaged widening of road from Begumpet flyover to S.P. Road to a width of 150 ft was held up at a few places due to litigation and other reasons. The property belonging to Vijay Kochar and others was one such property whose acquisition was delayed leading to major traffic jams as the road width was narrowed down to less than 60 ft.
It had forced the traffic police to streamline vehicular movement by allowing vehicles to move in phases especially during peak hours.
The issue was resolved only after painstaking negotiations taken up by senior officials with the property owner who consented to hand over the land after payment of the compensation amount, he said. Additional Commissioner (Development Planning) K. Dhananjaya Reddy said work on construction of the culvert on both sides as well as widening of the roads would begin from Friday and expected to be completed in two months.
Tenders for the works estimated to cost upto Rs.80 lakh were already awarded and once completed 40 ft of extra width towards the Kochar Apartments side and another 30 ft on the Pantaloon side would be available for traffic movement.
The Commissioner also said that serious efforts were also on to acquire two more properties - Alladdin building and Jabbar building near the Shopper's Stop, which are the other two major traffic bottlenecks through negotiations as cases were pending in the High Court.
The Heritage committee had earlier given permission for taking over the open land before Alladdin building for road widening.
