Super A govener ?
I just got my super A running after 2 years of sitting, rebuilt the carb and now she starts right up. When I try to accelerate, the govener retracts the throttle and won't let me maintain a higher rpm also it won't get to full throttle. I adjusted the rods as per the manual but no change. When I manually accelerate the engine at the carb with the govener rod disconnected it works just fine. Any thoughts or suggestions?
Re: Super A governor ?
Sounds like there is dirt/crud somewhere in the linkage and it is binding a bit and reacts in reverse. Suggest spraying all joints, connections etc., (see diagram below) with a good penetratng oil over a couple days, work the governor a bit and see what happens.

Re: Super A govener ?
Thanks Rudi, Although i have not dissasembled the govener I have dissasembled all the linkages and they are clean and non binding.
Re: Super A govener ?
Are you sure the output shaft on the governor is free and moves easily? That's usually what gets sticky and hard to move.
Re: Super A govener ?
They are bad for getting a lot of play in the housing Bushing and shaft worn , maybe

Re: Super A govener ?
My sa governor dont work either!---free when motor not running,-- locks solid at half throttle when motor is running! thanks; sonny
Re: Super A govener ?
Lots of them wear where the lever goes into the governor housing. There is a guy over on the Yesterdays Tractors forum that rebulds them. He did one for me and it works much better.

Hunkered down in a converted shipping container stationed in a San Francisco parking lot, three young entrepreneurs are tinkering with the DNA of ordinary plants in the hopes of being able to mass produce a variety that glows in the dark.
If all goes well, their start-up company will begin mailing out the first batch of seeds next spring to the 8,000 donors across the country who helped them raise nearly $500,000 in a phenomenally successful online fundraising campaign through Kickstarter.
The distribution of an estimated 600,000 seeds would be, by far, the largest release of a synthetically engineered organism to the general public. The recipients will be able to plant the seeds in any standard flower pot and, with enough light and water, grow a glowing version of a small winter annual with oval-shaped leaves that is related to mustard.
It is an event that supporters are looking forward to with giddy excitement but also one that has sparked worry in Washington about whether existing laws and statutes are adequate if something goes wrong and the seeds upset the balance of the environment.
The team is confident they can grow a plant that gives off light — scientists have been able to create glowing plants as far back as in the 1980s. What they don't know yet is how bright they can make it. They plan to announce Friday that they have successfully created an early prototype of glowing seeds.
For Antony Evans and his colleagues, the experiment represents the first step toward the ultimate goal of creating sustainable natural lighting. They imagine a world where light bulbs are filled with DNA from fireflies and jellyfish and bioluminescent trees replace streetlights.
"Our project is a demonstration of what's possible," said Evans, 33, who has an MBA and is the Glowing Plant Project's manager.

Z-Biddy scam
I just received an email from a company called E-Biddy. After doing a little investigating I learned they claim to be a penny auction site that sells high dollar items for really low prices. As soon as you sign up They charge your credit card for $159, before you ever bid. You are supposed to be able to spend that $159 on bids, but there are many reports that you cannot bid even after being charged. You are also charged for each bid, whether you win or not. Remember, if it sounds to good to be true it probably is.

Re: Z-Biddy scam
Trend Micro's site safety center is currently saying:
I have run into situations where a site had a problem that has been cleared up but Trend still have the site tagged. That may be what has happened in this case.
Re: Z-Biddy scam
While I never registered for any of the penny auctions, some comments by others lead me to believe that whatever you bid is deducted from your account and kept by the auction, even if you are not the ultimate and final high bidder. They could potentially collect huge amounts (from large numbers of bidders) on some sales that end at low prices. Don't bet against the "house".
Luck favors those who are prepared

By Jude Stewart
In her new book, "ROY G. BIV: An Exceedingly Surprising Book About Color," Jude Stewart startles us into really seeing color again with interesting anecdotes about the hues that surround us.
Bumblebee-bright, a yellow taxicab blurs across Times Square: an instantly recognizable and infinitely reproduced symbol of New York City. But New York cab companies weren't the first to paint their vehicles the now iconic yellow, a popular taxi color in many parts of the country and the world.
When businessman Harry N. Allen launched the New York Taxicab Company in 1907, introducing the city's first fleet of gasoline-powered cabs, his imported French vehicles were equipped with "taximeters" to charge fees based on mileage, manned by drivers dressed like West Point cadets - and originally painted red and green.
In 1915, Chicago entrepreneur John Hertz (of future rental-car-company fame) opened the first Yellow Cab Company in his city. To unify his fleet, Hertz had commissioned a local university study to "scientifically ascertain which color would stand out strongest at a distance," per his biographer - and yellow won. (Color researchers still agree that yellow is generally the most visible color, though some have suggested that it's chartreuse that the eye most easily detects.)
But this often-told story ignores the fact that yellow taxis had already appeared in various American cities before 1915. Businessman Albert Rockwell was operating a fleet of yellow cabs as early as 1909, and he went on to incorporate the Yellow Taxicab Co. in NYC in 1912. If Hertz chose yellow for scientific reasons, legend has it that Rockwell was merely appeasing his wife Nettie, who preferred the color.
The wild popularity of gasoline-powered taxicabs lured dozens of competitors into the industry, including Morris Markin's Checker Taxi, which was based in Chicago, and later Kalamazoo, but whose vehicles were ubiquitous nationwide.
Like any madly growing business sector, the taxicab biz was rife with abuses - and the Great Depression only worsened infighting among cabbies desperate for work. The Haas Act of 1937 tried to clean up New York's taxicab industry by regulating officially licensed cabs under a medallion system. The Haas Act didn't mandate a specific color of taxicab, but standardizing the cabs' look to reflect more standardized regulation made sense. With a consistent color and make, "official" taxicabs signal to wary riders that they're duly regulated by city government.
The logic of visual standardization became fully entrenched with a 1967 ruling that all "official" New York taxicabs be painted yellow - specifically "Dupont M6284 or its equivalent," according to Allan Fromberg of the New York Taxi & Limousine Commission. Any visual swerve therefore indicates either an unlicensed vehicle or an alternate taxicab system.

Walter Football that is. They have the Bucs going 5-11 and finishing 4th in the division. The Bucs would do better than that with the exact same team they had last year. It has to be a bias of some sort. The worst trolls on this board pick us better than that. Ridiculous.

Maple Syrup?

Maple Syrup?
Always been interested in making maple syrup. Anyone on here ever done it? What's involved? Brandon.
Yes did it many years ago when I was in high school. One of our problems was that squirels would be attracted to the cooker. Once ypu start the fires you need to keep tjem going 24/7. Took lots of wood. But then we had one section of woods. Spent a lot of time running a JD B or behind a JD B collecting sap. Have to be careful about green sap. As the weather warms up the sap takes on a greenish tint. Cold nights and warm days works best. Best to confirm all this by reading or comparing notes. Boy did the stuff taste good. Got a pretty penny or two selling the stuff.
Have at it.
Si hoc legere scis,nimium eruditionis habes.
What's involved - a lot of hard work! I look back now on my youth with lots of fond memories of "sugar makin'." My parents made maple surup from the time I was 3 or 4 until well after I graduated college. Trust me, it involves a lot of hard work. And in Kentucky, you may be to far south for a very long season. You will probably warm up to quick.
Good, reliable, basic information is located here:
Look it over and go for it. Nothing tastes like eggs boiled in the flue pan! Better yet are the hot dogs!!! I can still savor the taste.

I am about 10 miles north of Lexington. I try to make syrup at least every other year. The best time seems to be around Martin Luther King day. Up here that is nearing the end of sap running. I use a piece of 1/2 inch copper pipe as a spiggot. I drill in the tree about 2 inches and insert the pipe just past the bark. Two nails driven above the pipe will hold a bucket. I don't cover the bucket but I use an old milk strainer to get out any foreign matter. My cooker is a 50 gallon stainless steel pot. After I put the sap in the pot it is just a matter of keeping the fire going. I am not real precise with my cooking. I finish the syrup in the kitchen where I can watch it more closely. Don't cook off the sap in the house or every thing inside will be damp! You will have the best syrup you have tasted.

Silverta16- My family sugars here in Vermont, right now just helping family friends with their operation. We have about 5000 taps and boil on a 5 X 14 evaporator, fired with wood. A lot of wood! On a big day, we will burn 4-5 cords, the logs being cut 4 feet long, for the most part. The sap is also run through a reverse-osmosis machine before boiling, which raises its sugar content from 2-4% up to about double that. Our season runs from early March through mid April, depending on the year and the amount of snow on the ground and the frost in it. Our taps are about 70% on pipeline and 30% in traditional buckets, mounted on a tap in the tree.
If you just want a little fun for the family, a big pot or a large steamer tray over a gas or wood fire should do the trick. Expect lots of time, as 40 gallons of sap produces about a gallon of syrup. This ratio will probably be worse in your southern clime, as your trees will produce sap with a lower sugar content. Watch out for over-boiling. The sap has become syrup when it boils between 217-220. If you go much over, it will crystalize. If you go under (too thin) it will explode cans or could go rancid.
We expect each tap in Vermont to produce around a quart of syrup in an average year, but you may want to count on a little less if the season is shorter.
If I can answer any questions, feel free to PM me, or I'll try to address them here.
Do you just bring it to a boil? How long do you let it boil? It would take me a while to collect 40 gallons of sap, can you store the sap till you have enough to make? I'm going to try it one of these days. Brandon.
Brandon, do you have Sugar Maple trees (Acer saccharum)? They are the only ones that produce sap that can be made into maple syrup.

Yes and no. Sugar maples will make the best syrup and have by far the highest sugar content in the sap, but black maples, norway maples and red (or soft, swamp) maples will also do the trick. You just have to boil away a lot more water relative to the amount of sugar. Flavor will not be quite the same. More important is how each tree "runs" or allows sap flows in certain weather. Sugar maples raise sap into the tree in warmth and lower it in freezing temperatures, and (roughly) it's only as it passes the tap that you get a run. With red maples, the sap will usually start later, run like hell once or twice and be done, which limits the season and makes it much more work, if you're trying to make lots of syrup. They also heal the taps differently. We just pass them by where they occur in our sugarbush.
As for time boiling, depends on how fast you can boil away the water. It's not done until it gets to the right temperature, which is actually an approximation of the right density, or the amount of sugar it contains per volume. You always want a full-on rolling boil.
You can store sap for a limited period, but being a sugary liquid it goes bad (starts to ferment) pretty quickly. Unless it's very cold, it will be rancid and begin to yellow in about 24 hours. You can still make syrup out of it, but you'll get a bitter taste and a very dark color (grade). If you use a pot or cauldron, your syrup will be very dark to begin with anyway. Ideally, the evaporator will run very shallow, and sap will move through it very quickly to preserve lighter colors and milder taste.
By the way- gathering sap in a sugarbush (other regions call this a maple "orchard") is a great activity for a Cub in places farther south. Someone in the past posted a great photo of their gathering tank, made our of an old potato cart. In Vermont, we often have to tap the trees on snowshoes, as it's too deep, even for the biggest tractors, and when the snow melts, the mud is too deep for small rigs. A Cub would be a permanent fixture until June! Hence, an advantage of the pipeline. And of 200 horse four-wheel drive modern tractors.
As for volume, you can make syrup with any amount of sap, you just end up with less when you're done! To give you an idea of what "worth it" is for us, we don't fire the evaporator unless we have at least 1500 gallons of sap, as it would just be getting going when we run out.
Thanks for the clarification, Rusty. Sugar maples are the only trees used around here (western MD) for syrup.

Same here, unless you have flatlanders in your tapping crew. Then I've see red (soft) maples tapped, along with ash trees, beach trees and the occasional telephone pole.
After hunting season ends and Christmas passes, sugar season is the next high spot in the year!
My kids and I tapped the maple trees in our backyard 5 or 6 years ago as my son's science project. We hung gallon milk jugs on the metal tubes we bought from the county agricultural office, hammering them into the trees after drilling 7/16" holes. Don't recall we collected more than 5 gallons of sap, and boiled it off on our gas BBQ grill. As mentioned, the yield was about 40:1 - we ended up with about a quart of syrup. As I recall, you watch the temperature as you go . . .as the water boils off the temperature rises slowly at first, and then more rapidly. When you reach the endpoint temperature, it's begun to thicken.
It was alot of work. . . a really labor intensive process. Was it worth it? The flavor of real maple syrup was like nothing I ever had before. . . it was terrific. And to make it from your own trees was a great feeling. We haven't done it again since . . . we keep saying we'll do it this year . . . but we haven't. But my kids remember it. Store syrup sure never tasted the same again. Seems like I read somewhere that Aunt Jermima syrup contains 2% true maple syrup, Log Cabin 5%, and Mrs. Butterworth has none at all.

My wife knows that anything but pure Vermont maple syrup in our house is grounds for divorce! If it isn't real, I don't insult the pancakes with it, even at a friend's house. On the rare occasions I end up out for breakfast with someone, I stick toward the bacon/eggs/potatoes side of the menu.
By the way- the "real" syrup they put in Log Cabin and such is usually the real dregs you coudn't sell retail. Often, this is the product of the last run of the season, when the sap is yellowed (because the trees are already budding), and has been too warm for too long (worked). We always laugh because the "Vermont Maid" syrup is one of the few that actually has no real maple whatsoever....
Is "real" maple syrup sweet. I've been raised on store bought, love how sweet it is. I went to Cracker Barrell, ordered some pancakes, didn't like their syrup it was supposed to be real maple? I love pancakes though. Brandon.
Brandon, you come up to Cubfest 2007 in Ohio in June, and I'll bring you some real maple syrup.

If you've ever wanted to say, "The shelves at the grocery store are spying on me" without being accused of harboring paranoid delusions, just wait until 2015.
That's the year supermarket supercompany Mondelez International (owner of such brands as Nabisco, Kraft, Cadbury and others), in conjunction with Microsoft Kinect, will introduce so-called "smart" store shelves that can "identify the age and sex of the would-be snacker" in the supermarket aisle, the better to decide what sort of advertising to aim at them.
Tech journalists were nearly unanimous in their effusive praise for this brave new world of in-store targeted advertising. Brian Fung at the Washington Post said, "It's not quite Minority Report levels of creepiness, but it's getting there." Fastcompany.com's Neal Ungerleider called it "the ultimate in creepy yet inevitable marketing tech."
The idea is that, in addition to identifying the age and gender of consumers, the "smart" shelves will be equipped with weight sensors that notice when an item has been moved. Presumably then, when the sensors detect that a box of cookies has been lifted up by a female aged 18-34, various in-store coupon dispensers or display screens will belch forth whatever suggestions their adbot algorithms think will persuade young women to buy cookies.
Or maybe not. As we've noted before, when marketers try targeting campaigns specifically at women, the results tend to be clueless at best and insulting at worst (no, pink packaging does not justify a fourfold price increase). Maybe they do better at marketing to men, though we're inclined to doubt it.
From a consumer angle, we're not sure what concerns we should focus toward this forthcoming smartshelf grocery technology: "Oh, no, it might persuade me to buy more junk food than I can afford," or "Aw, crap, shopping's irritating enough without computerized sensors tossing asinine ads my way."

Captain Robert "RT" Trosset stared intently at his video sounder as we idled toward the stern of an anchored shrimp boat some 45 miles northwest of Key West in the Gulf of Mexico. The shrimpers had trawled all night and recently finished separating the harvested shrimp from the other critters scooped up in the giant nets - what scientists call "bycatch" but fishermen call "shrimp boat trash."
The shrimpers shovel the trash overboard around daybreak, and predators move in to feast upon the thousands of small fish and crustaceans that are thus disposed of. This creates an incredible fishing opportunity for blackfin tuna, little tunny (what we Floridians call "bonito") and cobia. The trash makes it all happen, and so each day starts with the purchase of a bag or two from an anchored boat. The shrimpers know that fishermen want the trash to attract tuna, so they save some to sell in the hopes of picking up an extra buck or two.
Trosset had purchased two large bags of trash from one of the shrimpers the day before, so now we searched for the fish. As we approached the stern of the first boat, a large red orb appeared on the video screen, and Trosset said, "We've got company." He turned off the engines on his 34-foot Yellowfin, Spindrift, and began throwing a few pieces of the trash overboard to see what might show up from below.
It didn't take long to find out. Hordes of little tunny swarmed around the boat, their telltale green backs flashing in the clear Gulf water. We only spent a few minutes there and ultimately decided that we needed to move; bonitos are fine sport on light tackle, but we had come in search of blackfin, and they simply weren't appearing beneath this particular shrimp boat.
Invest Bait Wisely
"We don't want to waste our bait here," Trosset said. "You don't want to invest all of your bait on bonitos. You need 60 to 70 pounds of trash for bait, and you can go through it quickly if you're not careful." Fortunately, seven more shrimp boats lay at anchor, spread out over several square miles of the Gulf. We moved to the closest one and repeated the process.
This time, our drift and Trosset's chumming produced bonitos at first, but then a large black shape came streaking through the chum. "That's what we're looking for," Trosset said, and we set up to fish. My wife, Poppy, and I each grabbed stout spinning rods rigged with 30-pound braided line and 30-pound fluorocarbon leader tied to circle hooks. We baited with dead fish, carefully selected from the bag of trash, and awaited instructions.
"The key to catching blackfins and not bonitos is to throw just enough trash to keep them interested without getting the bonitos too fired up," Trosset explained. "If the bonitos get into a feeding frenzy, they will crowd out the blackfins and you'll never get one." He went on to explain that as we drifted farther from the shrimp boat, we would draw the fish away with us as they followed the chummed trash. With just the right amount of trash tossed overboard, the bonitos would eventually fall off, and the blackfins would remain.
When we began seeing more black backs than green ones in the water, Poppy and I cast our baits and stared into the depths below to see what would come. I hooked up first, a large bonito that came streaking out from under the boat. My reflexes were too slow to get the bait away from the fish as I saw it coming, but the 15-pounder put up a great fight and was released quickly.
Tuna Time
Poppy did better: A large black shape engulfed her bait and headed straight down as the rod bent over hard. "That's a nice fish," Trosset said, a fact made obvious by the amount of braid screaming off the reel. Blackfin put up a terrific fight, and Poppy strained to lift the fish from the depths, but she soon had it boat-side, where Trosset gaffed it and swung it aboard. Our first blackfin of the day, a beauty that weighed in at 31 pounds! Fifteen-pound bonito are fun, but a 31-pound blackfin is awesome, and tasty too.
We repeated the process again and again during a hard morning of fishing, working from one shrimp boat to another, and we ended up catching nine blackfin, the smallest of which weighed 24 pounds. We also caught and released a dozen or more bonitos, including a few on fly rods. This light-tackle action went on nonstop until shortly after noon, when the fish faded away and we could no longer raise them. Just as well: A morning of pulling on strong fighters like these is enough.
Shrimpers move to the southern Gulf in late winter, north of Key West, and spring finds the tunas following them. Find the anchored shrimpers in May, and you'll undoubtedly find plenty of light-tackle action.

Dallas Cowboys
Sean Lissemore - #95 - DT
|6' 3"/ 303 lbs.
|Teaneck, NJ
|William & Mary
|Years played
|2010, 7th round, 27th pick by Cowboys
Austin unlikely to leave Dallas now
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has said that he intends to sign restricted free-agent WR Miles Austin to a long-term deal, but the team won't use the franchise tag on him.
Cowboys will get Jones, Choice more work
One of the interesting subplots of the Cowboys' offseason will be the talk about how much more work Felix Jones and Tashard Choice will get — and perhaps how much less will be in the hands of Marion Barber.
Cowboys likely won't blow up O-line
The immediate reaction from the playoff loss was that the O-line must be the area the Cowboys must focus the most on improving in the offseason.
Cowboys give Phillips two more years
The Cowboys announced a well-anticipated new contract for head coach Wade Phillips today that runs through the 2011 season.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Don't expect Robin Yount to be added to Cubs manager Dale Sveum's staff. The Hall of Famer accidentally shot his former Brewers teammate in the right ear while hunting quail in Arizona.
"The bird went up in front of [Yount] and I was about 50 yards up on the hill," Sveum said Tuesday, explaining the freak incident. "He got the bird up and lost track of where I was and pulled the trigger and was like, 'Uh oh.' I was looking for birds myself and he was behind me. I got drilled with pellets in the back and the ear."
Sveum's reaction was expected and unprintable. Was there blood?
"Oh yeah, there was blood," Sveum said.
The Cubs manager didn't need stitches.
"You don't get hit very often," Sveum said. "It's not that big a deal."
He said they usually don't fire that close to each other but there have been times in the past when they've had 6-shots fall on them.
We know Yount shot Sveum. What about the quail?
"He got the bird," Sveum said.

Mayor Emanuel is counting on your lead foot to help him balance next year's city budget.
Sources tell FOX 32 News the budget the mayor plans to propose on Wednesday projects that new cameras designed to catch speeders will net $70 million for the city treasury. That's in addition to $55 million the mayor expects to reap from the existing red-light cameras, totaling $125 million from the two types of traffic cams. That number could go a lot higher.
New computerized cameras caught more than 90,000 motorists breaking the speed limit during a city experiment earlier this year. While no fines were imposed, motorists could have been charged nearly $5 million. And that was with cameras at just four locations. They'll soon be installed at 50.
City officials predict speeders will quickly wise up and slow down. If they don't, doing the math shows fines could run into the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Sources FOX 32 News that revenue from traffic cameras will play a key role in closing a projected $338.7 million shortfall in Mayor Emanuel's 2014 city budget.
Despite indications that the speeding cams could yield far more, the mayor's counting on only $70 million from them next year. He's also raising a series of taxes, fees and fines on such things as cable TV, cigarettes, illegal parking, and zoning changes.
Sources said the city treasury is also getting a boost from a recovering local economy, yielding tens of millions of dollars more than was expected from Chicago's share of the state income tax, the sales tax, hotel tax and real estate transfer tax.
None of those long-established revenue sources have the potential for sparking anger that the traffic cams have. A few activists are already organizing in an effort to kill the camera program, vowing to make it an issue in the 2015 city election.
Balancing next year's budget is far easier than in the years after that. Unless things change, huge sums will have to be paid into pension funds for teachers, fire fighters, police officers and other public employees. The mayor's warned that without pension reform, local property taxes could double.

By Katy Waldman
A bizarre demographic chill has stolen over the Land of the Rising Sun. According to a fascinating and bewildering investigation in the Guardian by Abigail Haworth, Japanese young people are losing interest not just in marriage, but in romantic relationships. Some have even given up on sex. The national press is calling it sekkusu shinai shokogun, or celibacy syndrome.
The evidence: Japan's population is declining, and is projected to dive a further third by 2060, with fewer babies born in 2012 than in any year on record (and a corollary: adult diapers outselling baby diapers). Haworth cites a survey that found that "61 percent of unmarried men and 49 percent of women aged 18-34 were not in any kind of romantic relationship," and a study showing that 30 percent of people under 30 have never dated. Women in their 20s have a 1 in 4 chance of never marrying, according to the Japanese Population Institute, and a 40 percent chance of remaining childfree. Another study indicates that 45 percent of women and more than 25 percent of men "were not interested in or despised sexual contact."
The non-statistical details are in a way even more suggestive. A panicked government official warns that Japan "might eventually perish into extinction." Meanwhile, a 32-year-old career woman declares relationships "too troublesome" and a 31-year-old "herbivore" (slang for a straight man who isn't looking for sex or a girlfriend) explains that "emotional entanglements are too complicated." Behind these examples are evocative bits of scenery: stand-up noodle bars for one, convenience stores selling "individually wrapped rice balls and disposable underwear," an entire culture geared toward singles who want to focus on their friends and careers.
The trend seems to rise out of a complex brew of physical estrangement and disassociation (perhaps related to technology?), unattractive prospects for married women, economic malaise and the collapse of institutions — like organized religion — that might encourage coupling up. (Also, it's possible that a scourge of 29-foot tapeworms in glass jars is killing the national mood.)
A sex and relationship counselor — her dominatrix name translates to "Queen Love" — tells Haworth that Japan is experiencing "a flight from human intimacy" as "the sexes spiral away from each other." She works with clients who cannot relate to other people: "recovering hikikomori ('shut-ins' or recluses)" who "flinch" when she touches them, 30-year-old virgins who live with their parents, men who can only get aroused by watching "female robots on a game similar to Power Rangers." For them and for others in their generation, the "usual technological suspects" step forward as sexual alternatives: virtual-reality girlfriends, online porn, anime cartoons. (No doubt Japan's incredibly advanced and imaginative online play-worlds deserve some credit here.) But what is lost, the sex therapist says, is a sense of "skin-to-skin, heart-to-heart" connection.
How do people get so alienated from their bodies and the bodies of others? It's easier to see how young people in Japan might come to shrug off traditional marriage and courtship. Haworth writes convincingly about the factors dissuading young women from seeking out romantic partners. "Japan's punishing corporate world makes it almost impossible for women to combine a career and family, while children are unaffordable unless both parents work," she says. Women hardly ever get promoted once they marry: Bosses just assume they will become pregnant and leave. Indeed, almost 70 percent of Japanese women quit their jobs after their first child, forced out by inflexible hours and a disapproving corporate culture. The survivors, ladies who insist on balancing marriage and a career, sometimes get tarred as oniyome, or devil wives. For aspiring professional women, Haworth suggests, it is simpler just to stay single.
Men, too, resent the expectation that they will provide for a family in a time of thin pocketbooks and scarce jobs. "I don't earn a huge salary to go on dates and I don't want the responsibility of a woman hoping it might lead to marriage," explains one. But rather than merely rebelling against traditional gender roles — the breadwinning husband, the stay-at-home wife — people like him are choosing to reject love and relationships as a whole. They "don't see the point," reports Haworth. Intimacy "has become too hard."
The article tries to put Japan in a larger context: "Across urban Asia, Europe and America," Haworth writes, "people are marrying later or not at all, birth rates are falling, single-occupant households are on the rise." But the sense of romantic futility and disillusionment in Japan feels distinct. Trapped by outdated gender roles and crunched for both time and money, the young people in the story seem to be throwing up their hands in surrender. It would be one thing — new, but not tragic — if all the virtual wonderlands and stimulating careers and electric urban pastimes were diverting attention away from couplehood and even sex. But, at least in this article, the ebbing of human intimacy seems to come from a place of disenchantment and frustration. I can't make this historical husband-wife arrangement thing work, so I'm giving up altogether.
But perhaps that's just how we are predisposed to see it and write about it? Maybe Japanese young people are pioneering a deeply satisfying lifestyle in which love and sex have receded into the background — and the tradeoff makes them perfectly happy. (Also, as Doug Barry at Jezebel points out, the minute sex grows so rare that having it becomes a statement, it will inevitably turn cool again.) Rates of psychological illness in Japan and the United States are comparable: 24 percent of Japanese adults and 25 percent of American adults have suffered some sort of mental health problem. So could a collective bias against singlehood be warping the way we see celibacy syndrome? Is it really a syndrome, or just an alternate (convenient, culturally exigent) mode of being? I find the notion of an intimacy-starved society as depressing as anyone, but maybe those are my reactionary, Jane Austen-informed values talking. At the very least, Japan's new status quo might remove some of the stigma from living alone.

'Gene Simmons Family Jewels' Canceled By A&E
Tuesday, August 21, 2012
After seven seasons and 160 episodes, A&E has canceled Gene Simmons Family Jewels, according the Vintage Vinyl Rock. The show, which has been both adored and reviled by rock fans, has shown a supposed "warts and all" look at the Kiss co-founder's long-term relationship with his girlfriend -- now wife -- former Playboy Playmate Shannon Tweed, their children Nick and Sophie, along with the facelifts, the alleged split between the couple due to Simmons' infidelities, and thwarted baby adoptions.
A&E issued a statement following the cancellation saying: "For seven great seasons, Gene, Shannon, Nick and Sophie have been part of the A&E family, and we could not be more proud of the unparalleled run of Gene Simmons Family Jewels. On behalf of everyone at A&E, we'd like to thank the production team at Thinkfactory Media, Gene and his amazing family for their partnership, collaboration and for opening up their lives, warts-and-all, to us throughout the years."
Gene Simmons said in his own statement: "With Kiss on tour and with my other business commitments, we have decided to draw the final curtain on our show. It has been a wonderful, life-altering experience for our family, and after seven successful seasons, we feel it's time to move on. A big thank you to A&E for allowing us to tell our story and a big thank you to our excellent producers Leslie Greif, Adam Freeman, Adam Reed, and the team at Thinkfactory Media. This is not the end of our story, it's the beginning of a new chapter. With love -- Gene, Shannon, Sophie, and Nick."
Upon its debut, Gene Simmons Family Jewels was trashed for being a staged, unfunny, and predictable rip-off of MTV's then-recent hit The Osbournes, featuring Ozzy Osbourne and his family. When we caught up with Simmons back in 2003, he made no bones about being a major fan of the show: "The music world is so full of boring people, it's great to see somebody who's interesting, at the very least, whether you're a fan of Ozzy's music or not. I mean, this is a unique guy, who's obviously survived the times, and here's hoping he and his family survive more."

The Gamecocks' number one receiver could be out for the home opener against North Carolina while he battles a hamstring injury.
Following Tuesday night's practice, coach Steve Spurrier revealed Bruce Ellington is still dealing with the nagging issue.
"Bruce is questionable," said Spurrier. "He'll try to run around tomorrow."
Ellington has been battling the hamstring injury for most of summer practice. Just days ago, Ellington appeared to have healed from the issue, but reaggravated it a short time later.
Busta Anderson could also miss the Thursday opener as well.
In other injury news, defensive coordinator Lorenzo Ward said linebacker Cedrick Cooper will be out due to an elbow injury.
The Gamecocks take on the Tar Heels at 6 p.m. at Williams-Brice Stadium.

DERRY, N.H. — Jack Webb, battalion chief of the fire department in this New Hampshire community near the Massachusetts border, said he and his fellow firefighters watching a television program Saturday morning that warned viewers about the danger of using blow torches to thaw frozen water pipes.
"We were actually joking about it before the call came in," Webb said. "It's just something you don't do. Don't ever do it."
But when firefighters responded to the call about a fire at a multi-family home, they quickly learned that the blaze was caused by someone doing exactly that.
Investigators said Clement Laplante had picked the dangerously wrong way to get the water running in the two-family, century-old home — and it's going to cost him, according to Webb, who estimated damage to the building at about $20,000.
Fire crews were able to quickly extinguish the fire after knocking down several exterior and interior walls to keep it from spreading. A team from the American Red Cross helped relocate the five adults who were displaced. With the piping and electrical system damaged, Webb said, the building is uninhabitable until repairs are made.
Emergency crews treated a woman with a history of respiratory problems and transported her to a local hospital.
"We also found numerous electrical and fire code violations as well," Webb said.
"The most serious fire code violations we found were no operating smoke and no operating carbon monoxide detectors in either of the two rental units," he said.
Details for this story were reported by The Eagle-Tribune in North Andover, Mass.

Anyone have one of these in hand yet? Please post photo's!!!
Anyone have one of these in hand yet? Please post photo's!!!
Another bump...are we there yet???
Anyone have this in hand, I am dying to see pictures. I never was that interested in the shaped, bolstered handles and style, but I after picking up a Vallotton I am really digging this smooth G-10, polished bolster look.
I have seen plenty of stock photo's, but am very interested in in-hand pictures.
Back in stock at KW.
More S90v & CF please.......
I handled one today, and WHOA perfect F&F and a beautiful knife. I really want one but question when I would carry it. Absolutely a custom quality show stopper.
I probably did not do this thing justice, The blade is like a smaller Millie in shape and initial impression, the linerlock is perfectly centered and nice and stiff but probably a bit GBish in the ease of disengagement, the bolsters are mirrored in polish...like check your teeth for spinach shiny, and the standoffs are gorgeous and honestly the "behind" shot of the knife might be the most handsome. The clip is just ok, sort of Southard-esque but this type of knife is rarely a clipped knife. I think a much more beadblasted would be better but might detract from the shiny bolsters. Again, custom quality and unreal panache. Sort of a merger between Ethnic and Gent's if you will

Can you tell I have not stopped thinking about it?
I picked up my Hungarian from the post office this morning. A few very quick first impressions and a few quick and dirty cell phone photos.
On the comparison side vs a BM Torrent that I saw similarities to before I bought the Hungarian (blade shape, polished G10, liner lock and then it stops), CRKT Summa that I really wanted to like but the steel and flipper put me off, Caly 3.5 that recently really impressed me and, because it is so well known and widely owned, a Para2
In hand shots, lock up and spine shot as requested :
My first impressions then : I like the fit and finish but I still need to sharpen it. I have had issues with weird bevels on my some of my Taiwan knives but once they have spent some time with the Edge Pro it is all sorted.
I really like the polished G10 and think there should be more Spydercos offering this. I'm neutral on the polished bolsters. I've already dropped the knife so there is already a scratch on the bolster so we are good to go and use this thing rather than baby it.
Blade shape works for me, tip isn't too delicate and I like the belly. I really like the sharpening ricasso (I think that is the term). Steel is fine for my uses. My experience with XHP is limited to my Techno and it performs fine for my purposes. I cannot see this being any different and look forward to using it and touching up occasionally.
Handle is nice and narrow (as apposed to thin from scale to scale). I like this. I have small hands and this feels really comfortable in my hands in a variety of grips that I would use for slicing, food prep, light work, etc.
I like liner locks but this guy is a bit inconvenient to close as the scales are the same size and there isn't a cut away in the opposite scale to make closing easier. I'm not asking for something the size of the Chinese's cut out but just a little something so I can use the side of my thumb rather than the friction of sliding the pad of my thumb across the jimping on the lockbar - from what I have seen, this is my only complaint about the knife. I'm sure there is a very good design reason for not having a slight cut out but I would have preferred one and cutting / grinding one in is going to look really bad.
So far so good. Definitely a keeper and something that will get used fairly frequently. I can recommend this, even from the very little time that I have had with it.

Thanks for the pics, its a lot smaller than it seemed without the context of other knives, my interest level +2
I collect knives, my knives collect dust.
As soon as one of these arrives at Heinnie Hayes in the UK I'm snapping it up....It's the first 'Ethnic' Spydie in a good while that's grabbed my attention, plus as a Valloton owner I know I like that contoured G10 'feel' in the hand.
Can't wait
Nothing in his pockets except knives and lint....
thanks for this review. I'm the designer of this folder. Yes you're right it's a bit hard to release the lock. I have a Gay Bradley (I love it), so I knew very well how the lock would work on the Hungarian. There are two reasons of this solution. First I didn't want to modify the authentic handle shape. This shape is the main characteristic of the "header-curved" folder. I had to modify the blade to create a Spydie so I wanted to keep the handle original. And the handle is very narrow at the point of a cutout. It would look very strange there. By the way this folder type is still alive and very popular in Hungary. Some custom knife maker handicraft really beautiful pieces.
Finally I suggest everyone to use both hands to close the blade, if possible.
Hun, it's always great to be able to hear directly from the designers, thanks for contributing!
Which Knife, A or B? get Both! (and C, D and E)
I saw / handled one of these in Golden at Spyderco a few weeks ago. Very nice grip / "feel" to it in one's hand. Blade design is straightforward utility. I had no problem with the lock on the display knife. IMHO just a nice working knife with an interesting twist to it design wise.

Thanks to you for the design of the knife! I suspected that this was the reason for the lack of cut out and you are right, it would spoil the clean lines and shape - which is what I have been looking for since that Summo didn't work for me and my Laguioles are too small and non locking.
I would like to say that Hun worked very hard on this design refining many times. He's a perfectionist and he was great to work with.
I also spent some time with a group from the Hungarian knife forums. Also great knife afi's. I got to play with some custom pieces made by a very skilled maker in Hungary. It's a beautiful ethinic design and we're pleased to be able to make it.
I finally received my Hungarian a few days ago. Ethnic series knives are often my most anticipated due to the variety they bring. They also often offer interesting and tangible insight into cultures with which we may not be familiar. I knew next to nothing about the Hungarian knives that inspired this Spyderco model, but I've been enjoying learning more about them.
The Spyderco Hungarian Folder is beautiful and elegant in hand. Its slender handle profile is quite a change from the wider handles on many models. It handles and carries smaller than I was expecting. Fit and finish is amazing, as has become expected from Taichung. I also like the pocket clip very much. It has a graceful shape, custom formed to the handle, with a nicely rounded end.
A very classy and refined knife. Great work to all involved.

New back ground??

New back ground??
I logged onto this site today and everything is different. I really like the old background and site set up. Now the background is really unfriendly and very hard to read. I have bad vision and don't like this at all. The white background...ugggh. The blue background and layout was awesome. Topics and icons seem to over lap and are very hard to read. I this just on my computer or were changes made to the site?
Re: New back ground??
What you are seeing is the basic BBS forum format style. The GUI interface that php uses has been stripped. This is a glitch most likely with the Hosting ISP. If you clear your cache and reload it should clear. Already has for me..
For those of you who were wondering what it was like 10 years ago.. well you just got a sample.. but we did have a nice orangeish background. I miss the old style at times.. but only for very, and I mean very short periods.

Re: New back ground??
Great. Only problem with me is I can design skyscrapers but don't have a clue how to clear a cache. Pretty versatile of me. I'll get someone in the office to figure it out for me. Thank you Rudi.
Re: New back ground??
this is the view i get 99% of the time on wild blue. even with clean cache.
Re: New back ground??
Didn't work for me. Cleared the cache on 2 different computers and it's still like this.
OK, fixed it finally. Go to the User Control Panel, choose the board preferences tab, then choose the edit global settings bar, then under "my board style" choose something other than "prosilver". Any other will do, though "prored" seems the most appropriate.

Re: New back ground??
Well, I logged out and went to do some work on the garden -- first spray of the season. Came back in and poof.. same problem Old style bare bones BBS look to the forums. Not impressed.
Sent Dennis an email, so the Host should know soon.. plus with a few other comments as to which ISP's downstream are having problems the Host may be able to figure out what is going on.
However, after I logged in, poof everything came back to normal. Now this is in IE6 with tabs and a few other addon's. I do not use IE7 nor 8. I am checking Mozilla now.. to see if Firefox has the same problem.
For me it seems to clear up after I log in and the cache is rewritten.
Ok, just opened FireFox and yup same stuff.. As soon as I log in though, it goes back to normal. I am not sure what is happening, but it could be a host problem. Again, though, try deleting files, history yadayada then close your browsers, count to 10, open browser and relog in to farmallcub.com and see if that helps.
I am seeing the forums properly at the moment. There have also btw, been a number of mysql and database loss problems over the last 2 days... it may or may not be related. Oh, I am not using prosilver I am using probw which works for me. The red is just well tooooooo red!
There have also been a few other problems that I have noticed over the last week. When composing posts or pm's, the tags are not working properly either. Instead of wrapping highlighted text, the tags just go in as open and close statements with nothing between. Very frustrating.

Re: New back ground??
Really liked the ProSilver format which seems to have been wiped for some reason. The ProRed hurts the eyes, and the ProBW is really hard to see whether there are new posts in the thread. SubSilver has a completely different look than the Pro series, and I don't care to learn that style if I can help it...
Here's hoping that the ProSilver comes back!!

Re: New back ground??
SubSilver is my favorite. I hated the looks of the others. Try it, you'll like it.
