Love isn't always meek and mild. Sometimes love is firm and tough, but it's no less love. Consider Jesus' response to the moneychangers in the temple.

His words are strong, "It is written," He said to them, "My house will be called a … [Read more...]

To walk "before" Him, as so many verses word the concept, is to live continually God-aware. … [Read more...]

National Public School won the 'TCS IT WIZ 2007' title
CHENNAI: The IT bug seems to have caught them young, and bitten them hard. Twelve students from city schools made the not-so-IT-aware section of the audience feel obsolete at the 'TCS IT WIZ 2007', an inter-school quiz contest organised by Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) here on Tuesday.
Quiz master stunned
Quiz master Giri 'Pickbrain' Balasubramaniam was stunned when a Standard X student recognised Kevin Rollins, the ex-CEO of Dell.
From trivia about the term 'Silicon Valley' to what Wikipedia's original logo looked like, the schoolchildren cracked most of the questions put to them.
Over 1000 students
Over 1,000 students participated in the preliminary rounds.
Teams from city-based Chinmaya Vidyalaya, Maharishi Vidya Mandir, Padma Seshadri Bala Bhavan (Nungambakkam) and National Public School made it to the finals, along with St. Jude's Public School and Laidlaw Memorial School in the Nilgiris.
Close contest
After a close contest between St. Jude's Public School (which won the last two editions of the contest) and National Public School (NPS), Kushal Bhandari and Varun K. Agarwal of NPS walked away with a bagful of prizes, including a laptop each, after answering the tie-breaker question.
Home Secretary S. Malathi and head of Chennai TCS' operations Ravi Viswanathan gave away the prizes to the winners.

I just received an order from one of our well known hybridizers. The two starters are full of blooms and thrips. They are in isolation in another part of the house. I intend to repot and treat with avid for three weeks.
My question is my leaves which are in an enclosed humidity tray, but on a shelf with my prime collection. The will probably remain closed for three months until babies are present. Do I need to worry about the leaves?
Thank You, Thom
I would spray them at least once. You will have your AVID solution anyway. Hope you removed all the flowers and buds from the new arrivals ASAP. Thrips - fly - and spread from one part of the house to another without any problems. This way you at least got rid of the flyers.
They are very adaptable - and even they prefer flowers, the do good on young leaves as well.
I am preparing for the Major Spray on Sunday. I just threw away a couple of violets with tight centers last night.
Need to charge my 4 gallon battery sprayer and find my last drops of Pylon.

Landscape Suggestions
We don't know what to plant at the front of our home or how it should be arranged. The area is 12 ft. x 7 ft. It only receives morning sun. We were thinking about some Firepower and Harbor Belle Nandinas since they don't grow so tall.
Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Here is a link that might be useful: http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2vty7g5&s=5
clicking on the link you provided only takes one to the "upload" page of Tinypic. It's better to post the picture right here. To do that, go to where the picture is on Tinypic. Look around for options that are probably hidden under the word "share," or something like that. There, find the html code for the picture (there may be different options for different sizes.) Copy the code and paste it into your message here. When you preview your message, the picture will show up if right code it used. Good luck.
Without any real context - like photographing from farther back so we can see the whole picture rather than an empty 12'x7' space - it's a bit difficult to offer much.
Did you see the thread (deja vu all over again) a few below yours entitled How to embrace this little hellstrip?
I will offer a simple solution and maybe someone else will offer something more complex, if that suits your taste. I'd put a single plant (fill the bed, not just a row at edge) that is groundcover or perennial below the window so there's no height trimming whatsoever. Liriope comes to mind. But it could be a flowering perennial (about 18" height) instead. Then I'd put annuals--whatever you like of whatever color--next to the doorway. (If you have a similar spot on other side of doorway, maybe match annuals over there.)
Liriope spicata spreads SO aggressively by runners, it'll go below cement and come back up on the other side.
Liriope muscari is the "clumping" kind that does not spread by runners and basically stays where you put it.
The whole idea of clumpy grassy has a place - like the hell strip between sidewalk and street. That being said, nice in bloom but otherwise loads of flopping strappy leaves. In fact, sort of like that flattened thing close to the sidewalk on the right of your picture.
Perhaps a small shrub to the very left; gumpo azaleas stay small. One of the small spirea specimens. But, as annuals were mentioned, you might get more for your plant buck with those. There's no major commitment and they'd be a good place holder until a more permanent scheme is developed.
"like that flattened thing close to the sidewalk on the right of your picture. That flattened thing looks like a newly installed plant in it's "end of winter" stage. Usually, Liriope muscari, once established, stands up tall under all kinds of abuse so has a very long season of looking good. While Liriope spicata does spread rampantly, I never use is so kind of forget about it. Glad, Duluth... you made the distinction.
I'm not one of the experts here, but I don't think I'd do much to that teeny area without considering this bigger picture. Others' suggestions about fairly straightforward shrubs or simple perennials seem to fit the bill. You might want to consider what it would look like to have the one type of shrub (Euonymous? Can't tell from pic) to the right, the lonely guy on the left side of the house, and then something entirely different in the middle near the door.
The lonely guy on the left side is a Holly as well as the one on the far left. Quince is under the windows. Knock Out roses are on the far right and next to the Holly on the left. In the first picture, the "flattened thing" is Lirope. Behind it is Varigated Pittosporum.
Oooh, that photo pbl_ge posted is going to get all kind of suggestions about moving your beds further into the yard. Especially the one in front of the garage.
For me, that little space is so small and right in the middle of that little bed that I would just continue whatever shrubs you have going on to the right and just having it be a green line. Unless you want to pull out the shrubs and start that whole thing over again.
I think a double staggered row of one of the dwarf cultivar Nandina's would work well in this spot, and the foliage texture would contrast nicely with the adjacent Pittosporum. I'd also suggest that adding a foreground lower accent such as Ajuga or Vinca minor, perhaps with smaller spring flowering bulbs such as Crocus or Muscari or Lycoris could give additional seasonal interest. I could also see a contrasting mass of evergreen ferns or another smaller arching small shrub in this spot. You might also consider using something with seasonal fragrance in this spot, I don't know if things like Trachelospermum jasminoides or Daphne odors are fully winter hardy in your area, but along those lines. Winter blooming perennials such as Hellebores or Bergenia might also interest you.
Nandinas sound good, but I would add a couple different hostas and a hellebore, or some other bigleaf for contrast - if we're only talking this small spot. (The first pic looked like this was your only patch of ground).
Looking at the big picture, I see yet another "eyes and nose" effect, with windows being the eyes and the evergreen shrub taking the role of a nose. I suggest you take the shrub out, and treat the front yard as a blank space.
When I saw the first photo I couldn't help but notice the near white of the walk from the driveway up to the entrance.
Seeing the big picture, my first though was on how appealing the house was with the balanced blend of brick, white, and black in just the right proportions. Then I looked again at the white walk at the entrance. With the distant view it looks like an underscore for the front door. Merely from a visual standpoint, I keep wanting to extend that white underscore across the house.
What a great nose, it can even be moved! I think moving to the right corner is a good idea if the shrub survives - but give it space, I'd say 6-8 ft from the corner towards the street and a little to the right (there's a white pole in the bigger picture, is that on the lot line? This would be just next to the shrub then)
By "blank space" I mean, imagine the narrow planting strip under the "eyes" isn't there and you're starting from zero, drawing new lines on the ground.
Where the arrows are, we're adding 5 Sky Pencil Hollies (10 total) on the sides of our patio/screened porch area for privacy. I also bought 6 more to put 3 at each of the corners of the house (question marks) to sort of bring it all together. Before I do the shovel work, I'd like a 2nd opinion about putting the 3 at each corner or any other suggestions.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Crowds pounce on Boxing Day sales; poll suggests majority of Canadians to shop
TORONTO - Wallets were flung open and registers rang out Wednesday as a number of Canadians shook off holiday fatigue and flocked to stores for Boxing Day bargains.
In Toronto, eager shoppers lined up in sub-zero temperatures outside downtown stores while others scoured the Eaton Centre mall for savings.
Griffin Courtice, 17, got a 5 a.m. lift to Best Buy, braving the morning cold to stand in line with dozens of people an hour before the store opened its doors.
The teen said he set his sights on a deeply discounted TV, the nearly half-off sale price deemed worth the pre-dawn wake-up call and "mind-blowing" lineup.
Despite growing competition from the U.S.'s Black Friday — the annual day of drastic markdowns held the Friday after American Thanksgiving — Courtice said the bargains found on Boxing Day are nothing to sleep through.
"Even though Black Friday may have been a bit more intense, a bit crazy, people are still getting good sales," Courtice said while clutching a 32-inch flat-screen TV.
A new survey commissioned by the Bank of Montreal suggests Canadians continue to embrace the Boxing Day tradition this year.
The Pollara survey of 1,000 Canadians found that roughly six in 10 respondents planned to shop on one of the busiest business days of the year for retailers.
The survey suggested Alberta would see the most transactions Wednesday, with 76 per cent of respondents saying they planned to take advantage of Boxing Day bargains. Atlantic Canada was next at 72 per cent, followed by Ontario at 69 per cent.
Quebec was expected to see the lightest Boxing Day shopping, with just 36 per cent of respondents saying they planned to take part in the annual shopping extravaganza.
The survey also found that men were more likely than women to take advantage of Boxing Day sales at a rate of 66 per cent versus 58 per cent.
One-in-five, or 22 per cent, said they planned to shop for themselves, while 34 per cent said they would buy items for both themselves and others.
The survey was conducted between Oct. 11 and 16. and the results are considered accurate plus or minus 3.1 per cent, 19 times out of 20.
Despite the survey's findings regarding Quebec, several major electronic and clothing stores in downtown Montreal drew big lines on Wednesday.
A crowd of bargain hunters waited for hours outside a big-box retail store in frigid temperatures.
Fabiola Ruiz, 31, split the waiting duties with her mother and brought along her eight-year-old daughter for company as well.
"It's very cold, but it's worth it," she said, sipping coffee to keep warm. "We're looking for deals for the whole family."
It was a similar scene in Vancouver, where shoppers bustling through one of the city's most popular downtown shopping streets paid little attention to the light mist of rain coming down on their packages.
Small queues formed outside several Granville Street clothing stores, and a steady stream of flatscreen TVs were wheeled out of a big box electronics store and loaded into taxis.
Two sisters who called themselves "professional" Boxing Day shoppers said the deals lived up to their usual expectations, having arrived at 7:15 a.m. from Mission, B.C., an hour's drive from the east.
"You know what to expect and it's just going to be crowded and crazy and you have to know what you want and get in and get out. We went scouting before," said Gillian Robertson, 20.
"The other day we came in, walked around, saw what we wanted and then waited for the deals," explained her sister, Caitlin Robertson, 24.
Howard Ma, however, who used to live in Vancouver but now returns from his home abroad to visit family each year, said he is starting to notice a downward trend.
"There wasn't as many good deals as I thought there'd be. Retailers do sales the whole year round," he said.
Regardless, he expects he'll be back again next year.
"I think it's still going to happen, it's just a tradition," he said. "Going to come out the day after the holidays, walk, look around. But you're not going to go out of your way to do the 6 a.m. thing anymore. That was, like, ten years ago."
Future Shop spokesman Elliott Chun said most shoppers ducking into the electronics chain on its busiest day of the year are looking to fulfil their own desires.
"We're seeing customers coming in with their gift cards, with their Christmas cash and they're starting to spend it on themselves," he said, adding the average transaction on Boxing Day tops $500.
Chun said Black Friday isn't sapping the enthusiasm of shoppers, noting that hundreds lined up early at Future Shop stores across the country, some arriving the night before to camp out for a prime spot in line.
Meanwhile, BMO Vice-President Su McVey said in a statement that bargain seekers should take Boxing Day buys into account when figuring out how much they'll spend over the holiday period.
Robert Knowles, 56, said he didn't work Boxing Day spending into his holiday budget this year, but that the $50 computer printer he nabbed Wednesday in Toronto isn't going to break the bank.
"I'm not very good at budgeting (for) it other than not to spend too much money," he said before heading home with his purchase.

Getting guns from police car trunks
I've learnt the skill, but I go over to the police station where lots of police cars are there, I don't seem to see any option of getting guns.
How can I do it?
Remember those Favor missions, about how you get Tire Irons from regular cars?
Yeah, that on a stationary, empty cop car.
Go behind it and find the prompt.
Qazi - claw
Run to the Hills! Run for your Lives!
You have to stand directly behind the trunk facing it and you might have to wiggle yourself around till the prompt comes up. If you move the slightest you'll lose the prompt. The system is a bit finicky and very sensitive and you have to be in the right spot to trigger the prompt.
Also you may only be able to get a shotgun from a cruiser around town and not at an actual police station since there's cops outside looking. Although I was once able to steal an SUV when the two cops blue bubble wasn't in the area of the SUV so you may have to wait to not have any cops looking in your direction.

Yeah watch out at police stations. They don't like it when you steal a shotgun out of their trunk. A 10 minute chase/gun fight with them ending with myself in jail/hospital. Was fun none the less.

^ I quickly realized that if you ram the cars chasing you, the chase ends quickly as back up does not come after that initial wave of 2-3 vehicles. So I would just stop, wait for the cops to pass me, then ram them 2-3 times and I would no longer be chased. Never had a chase last longer than a minute.

The biggest hassle was the fact that I changed airlines from United to US Air, so had to get my luggage and lug it upstairs in another terminal to check it in at the US Air counter. Then I had three hours to kill. That's when I got tired! Think I fell asleep on the San Fran to Charlotte ...

Norway Orca Whale Shot in the Head, Killed Too Quickly
Yesterday a young orca stranded near the shore of Norway, and 24 hours later it was euthanized, two bullets to the brain. It was a decisive action, a black and white choice for a black and white animal. No options, no gray areas to explore. No serious rescue or rehabilitation effort. The whale had been […] [Read More]

Need help picking out hinges
I'm going to be making some recessed medicine cabinets for my bathroom remodel. I'm going to construct the cabinet boxes out of 3/4" wood.
The boxes will then be recessed into the wall and drywall will come up to the edge of the box. I then want to use a 1" trim piece for the front of the cabinet box that will overlap the drywall by 1/4" for a nice finish. I hope that makes sense.
The "door" of the cabinet is going to be a framed mirror with the same dimensions, or slightly larger, than the final dimensions of the cabinet box with trim piece. In essence, all you will see on the wall is a hanging mirror and the cabinet will be hidden behind it.
I had planned on using frameless hidden hinges but when I went to Lowes to look at them, I could only find hinges with a 3/4" overlay. I would need an overlay of at least 1" to hide the cabinet box with trim.
Does anyone know if the frameless cabinet hinges (Blum) can be adjusted for larger overlays than 3/4". Do they make frameless cabinet hinges with larger overlays?
I've checked a couple online vendors but none of their descriptions mention anything about overlays.
Well, I went back to Home Depot yesterday and looked at the 1/2" solid hardwood planks. With their pricing, just for the sides of the cabinets, the solid wood would be more than $30, then I still need a back.
My cabinets are going to be 22"x28" and I'll have two of them. They'll be roughlty 4" deep as they're going into a 2"x6" wall.
I was just thinking, for the price, a sheet of cabinet grade plywood would be the cheapest option. Maybe I'll dig a little deeper and see if I can't find some better deals on 1/2" solid hardwood.
Oh, and I don't own a thickness planer. So, another reason to go with the 3/4" plywood option?

Inter-cloud and cloud to cloud lightning thunderstorm with a beautiful sky above a country lake north east of Longmont and Boulder County. Lightning bolts were really striking and hitting the ground in Ft Collins. We are on the south side of this storm. Lightning is a case of an electric arc between one cloud and the earth or another cloud, as are sparks caused by discharges of static electricity.

A colorful sky as an electrical charged lightning bolt strikes near the road and green thunderstorm clouds above. When the sun is low in the sky, such as before sunset when most severe storms occur, the reddening light of the sun when shining through Earth's atmosphere makes the bluish cloud tint turn green.

Kotor - very pretty joint. Would love to come back
Isn't this a fantastic place. Deep fjords, huge mountains and a seafaring culture in and around the islands. A campervan visit back here would involve numerous car ferries and boat trips. The arrival this morning just at sunrise, we were met by a really heavy fog in the fjords. It made for an interestingly picturesque trip through to Kotor at the end of the Fjord.

Breaking news from central Oregon to the Pacific Coast is fair game for this versatile reporter. Ways To ConnectEmail 3 Tips On Spotting A Migrating Gray Whale Along The Oregon Coast This Week By Chris Lehman • Dec 27, 2013 Mike Baird / Flickr The week between Christmas and New Year's Eve is one of the best times of the year to watch grey whales migrating along the Oregon coast. It's the height of their annual southbound trek from Alaska to Baja, California. Here are three tips to help better your chances of spotting a grey whale. Move Over, Keanu: Oregon Trees, Shrubs Get Role In New Action Flick By Chris Lehman • Dec 23, 2013 Listen Listening... / 0:52 The makers of the new action flick "47 Ronin" didn't want to film their movie in Oregon. But that doesn't mean the state won't have a starring role. Oregon has a connection to a big-budget movie that hits theaters this week. Long-Term Unemployed Face End Of Benefits By Chris Lehman • Dec 13, 2013 Jae C. Hong / Associated Press Unemployment benefits are about to run out for tens of thousands of Northwesterners. Without a Congressional extension, payments will stop later this month to people who've been without a job for more than six months. The holiday season will mean an end to unemployment checks for about 1.3 million Americans, including about 45,000 jobless in Washington, Oregon and Idaho. State benefits are still intact, but those last no more than six months. These cuts affect people who, in some cases, have been looking for work for more than a year. Improving Economy Means Lower Community College Enrollment By Chris Lehman • Dec 4, 2013 javacolleen / Flickr Listen Listening... / 0:56 The improving employment picture in the Northwest isn't good news if you teach at a community college. Enrollment is dropping as more people head back to work. And that means there are fewer classes to teach. Frank Goulard has taught math at Portland Community College for more than 30 years, so he knew what would happen when the economy started to tank five years ago. Cranberry Growers Wish Berries Weren't Just a Seasonal Delight By Chris Lehman • Nov 27, 2013 Bill Wagner / Washington State University One out of every five cranberries grown in the U.S. is eaten Thanksgiving week, according to industry giant Ocean Spray. Here in the Northwest, some cranberry farmers hope to convince Americans to eat more berries year-round. You probably aren't a real cranberry farmer unless you eat a fair share yourself. "We make them into our own sauce. We use them in salads, cranberry bread. We eat a lot of cranberries," said Scott McKenzie, who has been harvesting the berries for nearly 20 years on his coastal farm near Port Orford, Oregon. Meet the Homegrown Politicians Who Run a Tiny Northwest Town By Chris Lehman • Nov 25, 2013 Chris Lehman Listen Listening... / 4:55 Every morning, Jim Larson takes a walk around town. Down to the railroad tracks. Up the hill behind City Hall. There's hardly a sound. The silence is not unusual for a weekday morning in Larson's small town of Prescott, Oregon. There's not even a morning rush hour. "No, because there isn't that many people even that work anymore, either," Larson said. "Everybody up this hill that I live on, from my house up. Nobody works here; they're all retired." Drug Cartels Thrive on Ultimate Consumers: Addicts By Chris Lehman • Sep 18, 2013 Chris Lehman Listen Listening... / 5:09 Editor's Note: Drug traffickers are doing big business up and down the West Coast. When you go by freeway, you're driving a Silk Road of sorts for heroin, meth, and cocaine. This export industry is evolving. Drug experts say heroin is back on the rise, fueled in part by prescription drug abuse. This week, in a series we call Border to Border Drugs, we're reporting on drug-trafficking rings that rely on every freeway in the West. In part two of the series, correspondent Chris Lehman reports on how the supply side of this business may change, but the demand remains strong. --- Heavy-duty prescription painkillers have something in common with heroin. They're both opiates, and the effect they have on people who get hooked is similar. One difference? Heroin is usually cheaper and easier to get. That was true for Portlander Kevin Lehl. He says he got hooked as a teen when he was prescribed opiates to treat chronic pain. "I was in love with it from the very beginning," Lehl said. 'Cow Olympics' at Oregon State Fair Test Bovine-Handler Bond By Chris Lehman • Aug 31, 2013 Chris Lehman There's an unusual sporting event at the Oregon State Fair that involves athletes that could end up on your dinner table. With just moments left until the "Cow Olympics," the cattle were clearly restless. Before them was a six-part obstacle course. IRS Ruling Could Mean Upswing in Same-Sex Marriages in Wash. By Chris Lehman • Aug 29, 2013 Elaine Thompson / Associated Press County officials who issue marriage licenses in Washington state are gearing up for a possible influx of new applicants following the Internal Revenue Services' ruling that states gay marriage will be recognized across state lines for federal tax purposes. Fire Managers Increasingly Turning to Private Fire Crews By Chris Lehman • Aug 19, 2013 Listen Listening... / 1:01 With wildfires still raging across the Northwest, fire managers are turning to private firefighting crews in increasing numbers. One private industry group says contractors are responsible for a surprising 40 percent of firefighters on the ground in the region. Both the U.S. Forest Service and the Oregon Department of Forestry said that figure sounds about right. But the shift didn't happen overnight; the Oregon Department of Forestry's Rod Nichols says the change started in the 80s. Same-Sex Couple Files Complaint in Oregon Bakery Case By Chris Lehman • Aug 14, 2013 The state of Oregon will look into whether a bakery discriminated against a gay couple by refusing to make a cake for their wedding ceremony. On Wednesday, the Bureau of Labor and Industries announced the investigation, which comes in response to a complaint filed by two women who say a Gresham bakery cited religious reasons for turning them down. Real Life Story Of Small Town Mayor To Hit Seattle Stage By Chris Lehman • Jun 11, 2013 The mayor of Silverton, Oregon is one of a kind. Stu Rasmussen is the nation's only transgendered mayor. It's a distinction that generated international headlines and even a protest by the anti-gay group, Westboro Baptist Church. Now, Rasmussen's saga has a new twist: A musical about his life. It's hitting the stage in Seattle this summer. In a small rehearsal room in Seattle's South Lake Union neighborhood, long-time actor Mark Anders is preparing for a role like none he's had before. Oregon, Washington file briefs in support of same-sex marriage By Chris Lehman • Feb 28, 2013 SALEM, Ore. – The top state prosecutors in Oregon and Washington have filed briefs in the U.S. Supreme Court in support of same-sex marriage. The high court is expected to take up the cases later this month. The first case involves an effort to strike down California's Proposition 8, which bans same-sex marriage. The second case involves efforts to overturn the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Oregon same-sex marriage supporters file initiative for 2014 By Chris Lehman • Feb 11, 2013 SALEM, Ore. – Oregon voters could decide next year whether to legally recognize same-sex marriages. Supporters of gay marriage submitted an initiative Monday aimed at putting such a question on the Oregon ballot in November of 2014. Nine states including Washington issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples. But Oregon can't, since voters defined marriage as between one man and one woman nearly a decade ago. It would take a statewide vote to reverse that. So the gay rights group Basic Rights Oregon filed an initiative to overturn that Constitutional ban. Oregon At Odds With Federal Government Over Japanese Tsunami Gift By Chris Lehman • Dec 19, 2012 SALEM, Ore. – The state of Oregon is at odds with the federal government over how to use money from Japan meant for cleaning up tsunami debris. It can't be used to reimburse the state for money it's already spent. The Japanese government donated $5 million to the US this fall to help pay for the cost of cleaning up debris from last year's deadly tsunami. But Oregon hasn't seen a penny of that money so far.

Newbie Question on Edging
I am edging a bib, says to sc evenly around entire piece. Does this mean more than stitch along the sides that were dc?
Also, the center is too big, any suggestions for fixing that? I was going to fill it in with sc.
Here is a link that might be useful: Slipover Baby Bib
It means that you should crochet around every edge: top, sides, bottom, and the neck edge.
If the center is too big, you could make several decreases around the neck edge by inserting your hook into a stitch and pulling up a loop, then inserting your hook into the next stitch and pulling up another loop, then yarn over and draw through all three loops. Repeat this every few stitches and see what you think. If the neck edge is far too big, you will want to do this for several rows.
Oops sorry, I reread my original post....I meant to say does this mean more than ONE stitch in the DC's along the sides?
Thanks Donna for the reminder to keep decreasing when I try to fill in the center.
At least I learned that I like this yarn (cottontots from bernat) and I like most of the pattern, next time I will try a smaller hook, etc.

Stihl blower
I have a stihl br 380 blower that took a fall earlier today, and humpy dumpy here is trying to put it back together. I believe what happened is that when it fell it knocked the throttle cable off it's seat at the trigger. Any way, it starts and runs just fine, but the trigger is lose and doesn't pull the cable. I've check the Cale at the carburetor and it's still attached. Does anyone know how the cable is supposed to seat of the trigger mechanism? I'm at wits end here. A picture or a link to a diagram would be worth lots.
Thanks, John
Just buy a new one if the mounting points haven't broken.
