Join host Michael Keegan as he explore these questions and more with Mary Davie, assistant commissioner, Office of Integrated Technology Services (ITS) in GSA's Federal Acquisition Service (FAS).
New hallways' lead to strategic sourcing expansion
Under the Obama administration's strategic sourcing cross-agency priority goal, new commodity managers will oversee "hallways" for information technology, administration and human resources across government. The hope is that the managers and their teams of experts will be able to offer guidance and best practices to agencies when it comes to strategic sourcing.

Brian Miller, Managing Director, Navigant
Every major agency has an inspector general. Some are enthusiastic about sharing their office's work with the general public. Others prefer to let their reports speak for themselves. Brian Miller used to be an inspector general -- he's the former IG of the General Services Administration and now managing director at Navigant. He joined In Depth with Francis Rose for the beginning of an ongoing look into the world of inspectors general. He said there's an apprehension in some offices towards publicizing the work they do.
Agency blunders put spotlight on risk management
A series of management blunders and agency misbehavior in recent years ranging from the General Services Administration to the Veterans Affairs Department, haven't only put agency leaders in the hot seat and sometimes out of work. They've also highlighted the importance of better risk-management planning by agencies, current and former federal officials told Federal News Radio as part of a special discussion on risk management.
Lessons in federal training - straight from your garden
Training should not be about checking items off a list, says GSA Chief Learning Officer Mike Casey. It should be more like a "self-weeding garden."
Joe Petrillo, Procurement Attorney, Petrillo & Powell PLLC
How much should contractors charge the government for labor for a project? Perhaps not surprisingly, it depends on the type of contract and what the government instructed the contractor to do. It gets murkier when subcontractors are involved. In a long running case between QinetiQ and the General Services Administration, GSA is asking for millions it says the company overcharged. The company sued, saying it was doing what the government asked for. In this week's Legal Loop, procurement attorney Joe Petrillo joined Tom Temin and Emily Kopp on the Federal Drive to sort out this highly-watched case.
Mike Casey, Chief Learning Officer, GSA
Training your agency's employees by sitting them down in a classroom in front of a teacher giving a lecture won't work for the federal government anymore. Mike Casey is the chief learning officer of the General Services Administration and a guest for the Executive Suite on In Depth with Francis Rose. He's at the forefront of the effort to teach agency managers the difference between training and learning. Casey said knowing the difference could make a big impact on the cost to run your agency.

Two years after the project was first discussed with the community, Shelby County Public Schools Superintendent James Neihof said he wants the board to make a decision in regards to a proposed arts center to be located at the 800 block of Washington and Main streets in Shelbyville.
"We've been contemplating for some time, as a community, creating an arts center downtown. The school component of that would be arts education," Neihof said.
The Shelbyville City Council Thursday voted to accept Trace Lane into the city road system, despite the fact that the road does not meet the city's standards, and that the council turned down the request in 2007.
Many residents on Trace Lane, made up of mainly senior citizens, expressed their frustration that they were financially responsible for any repairs needed on the road, saying that upon purchase, they were never made aware that the road was private.
After a shooting in Martinsville over Labor Day weekend, city residents are looking for answers.
Residents of Martinsville attended the Shelbyville City Council meeting Thursday and noted a lack of police presence in the area.
In anticipation of trying to curb crime in the Martinsville area, residents have arranged a meeting with Mayor Tom Hardesty, Shelbyville Police Chief Danny Goodwin, and members of the city council next week.
Four year-old Colin Abbott is a happy, lovable, very bright little boy who should have an amazing future ahead of him.
But because of a genetic disease that leaves children with a life expectancy of little more than 20 years, his outlook is bleak.
Bookfest donationsbeing accepted now
The annual Shelby County BOOKFEST is only a few weeks away.
Library patrons and others are urged to clean out attics, basements and bookshelves for new and pre-owned books, CDs, DVDs, and art objects which will make someone else very happy – although no encyclopedias or VHS tapes will be accepted.
Although crime statistics show that violent crime did not increase last year, there is still too much of it being committed in the city, some Shelbyville residents say.
The latest violent episode, a shooting on Labor Day in Martinsville – one such area of concern – has got residents up in arms.
People were angry before Monday's shooting, in which a father and son have been charged with attempted murder – the victim is still hospitalized – and that event seems to have spurred a call for action.
At Tuesday night's meeting of the Shelby County Fiscal Court, magistrates passed a resolution making official a plan amendment for the sewer service area to include the new Bulleit Distilling Co. distillery on Benson Pike.
Shelbyville Municipal Water and Sewer Manager Tom Doyle presented a plan amendment regarding the sewer service area in order to provide sewer service for the construction of Diageo's new distillery to be built on 300 acres on Benson Pike.
Doyle said the expansion only includes the distillery.

Home to a church and a small grocery store, the quiet town of Southville will be unusually booming Saturday as Salem Baptist Church hosts Southville Day.
Nestled between Mount Eden, Waddy, and Finchille, the Southville community decided to bring back the old gathering tradition.
"We used to do this years ago and the community really loved it, so we decided to bring it back," Southville Day Chairman Peggy Whitaker said.
The event starts at 10 a.m. and ends at 4:30, with entertainment, activities, games and events offered throughout the day.
When most people think of a superhero, they picture batman or superman.
But when Shelby County residents think of a superhero, many will now see Blake Hundley, the young boy that fought and beat cancer not once, but twice.
After his second battle with chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant, 8-year-old Hundley has once again beaten the odds that were stacked against him.
In July of 2012, Hundley's parents got the news of any parent's worst nightmare – their little boy had brain cancer.

Jeff Zatkoff and Thomas Greiss will split the net on Monday against the Minnesota Wild.
Jeff Zatkoff will have to contend with free agent signing Thomas Greiss for Pittsburgh's backup goalie job.
Goaltender Jeff Zatkoff, getting a start in goal for the Penguins' regular-season finale, came out on the short end of a 3-2 shootout against the visiting Ottawa Senators Sunday night.
Just to confirm, Jeff Zatkoff will start on Sunday.
With the Pittsburgh Penguins likely sitting Marc-Andre Fleury on Sunday, look for Jeff Zatkoff to get the start.
Jeff Zatkoff allowed four goals on 20 shots in the Wild's 4-0 loss to the Penguins on Saturday night.
The Pittsburgh Penguins will start Jeff Zatkoff on Saturday.
Penguins backup goaltender Jeff Zatkoff played well, but ended up on the losing end of a 3-2 decision against Los Angeles Thursday night.

Feds peek at newest electronic security technology
SecTech brought integrator ADT together with leading government security technology vendors
Dozens of security companies gathered in the District last week to show off their newest products in hopes of snagging government contracts. But their cutting edge technology may also be cutting in on citizens' privacy, civil liberties groups say.
The ADT SecTech Expo celebrated its 10-year anniversary June 6 at the Atrium Hall at the Ronald Reagan Building & International Trade Center. The vacant space was transformed into a top-secret command center as ADT Security Services unveiled the latest in security technology. Many big-name security companies were on-hand, including: Honeywell Security, Bosch Security Systems, and General Electric Security.
Products varied widely. There were identity management tools like LG's eye-scan technology, IrisAccess. Security platforms were also on display, such as Comtrak Technologies' video surveillance and digital recording systems and Cisco Systems' card access control.
But at the center of it all, the crown jewel of the show, was the SecTech Control Center. A collaboration from multiple vendors, the control center linked up cameras and security systems from around the nation. On multiple monitors, visitors could witness what was going on around the corner, or in a bagel shop in New York with just a simple click of the mouse.
The American Civil Liberties Union and the Electronic Privacy Information Center weighed in on the matter, saying the technology impeded on individual's right to privacy and did not ensure a drop in violent crime.
"We don't think it is appropriate for American citizens to be tracked and surveilled as they go about their daily business," said Arthur Spitzer, legal director for the ACLU's National Capital Area. "This is exactly what George Orwell warned us of when he wrote '1984.'[TFI]"
Each year, ADT invites legislators at the state and federal level to show off the latest gadgets in hopes of drumming up business. Other government representatives are also invited, such as Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration, and members from branches of the U.S. armed forces.
Paul Brisgone, national director in ADT's federal systems division, said there are other security shows in the Washington-area, where thousands of people attend. But, the SecTec Expo, which has crowds around 200, is much more personal and consequential because of the clientele.
Mr. Brisgone says rather than have people walking around looking for "a free lunch and some trinkets" his show brings "individuals who make decisions."
"We try every year to bring new technology and show people what they're buying," he said. "We want to show them where we are, what we can provide and what our capabilities are."
One item on display was ADT's wireless mesh network video system. The technology is in the process of being installed in Richmond, Calif. The undertaking is expected to be completed next month said Janet Schneider, Richmond's administrative chief.
The technology is costing the city more than $2 million, Ms. Schneider said. Richmond is installing the surveillance cameras in high-crime areas.
"It certainly isn't a panacea," she said. "But we have high expectations it will deter crimes."
The city's seaport, Port of Richmond, which handles the trade of automobiles and fuel, is just nine miles from the Golden Gate Bridge. The port attained a $2.5 million homeland security grant to install the cameras.

In a season full of "firsts" for the new Charlotte 49ers football program, Matt Johnson lead the Niners (4-2) to their first win over a nationally ranked opponent against Gardner-Webb. It was by far Charlotte's most competitive game of the season against a tough squad that's beaten a handful of ranked teams themselves this year.
After being tied 24-24 at halftime, Gardner-Webb scored 21 unanswered points to open the second half in a game that looked like the Runnin' Bulldogs would run away with. With the score of 45-24 heading into the fourth quarter, the Charlotte 49ers were able to score 29 unanswered points of their own. Matt Johnson brought the game within two touchdowns with a 5 yard touchdown pass to C.J. Crawford two and a half minutes into the fourth quarter. A safety coming from a bad snap on a GW punt from their own 38 cut the Bulldog's lead to 45-33 with just over five minutes to go in the game. The 49ers were able to score three touchdowns in a span of 2 minutes and 8 seconds to go up by eight points at the end of the contest. Gardner-Webb scored a touchdown with under a minute to go, but couldn't convert the 2-point conversion the send the game to OT.
Gardner-Webb came into the game known for having a stout defense, but Matt Johnson and Co. were able to rack up 586 total yards on offense (342 passing, 244 rushing) and have no turnovers on the day. Johnson put up Peyton Manning-esque numbers, throwing for 342 yards and 5 TDs without any interceptions. Phillips and Barnwell continue to be effective as a 1-2 punch on the ground, running for 75 and 97 yards with a touchdown each. Despite being dominated on time of possession (37:05-22:54) and giving up 577 total yards on defense, Charlotte was able to win the turnover battle 3-0 which is a big reason the Niners were able to come away with the victory.
Charlotte welcomes UNC Pembroke next Saturday to Jerry Richardson Stadium for Homecoming.

Sermon shared by Ivan Casteel
May 2006
Summary: To challenge each Christian to stand for the Lord in their daily walk.
Scripture: Ephesians 6:10-6:13 (add scripture)
Denomination: Baptist
Audience: General adults
(Illustration) You can�t insult a dead person. You can say anything you wish about the corpse and he will not respond. The family might be offended, but not the dead person.
People say the strangest things at the casket:
�He looks so natural�.
�He looks so good.�
�She looks as though she could talk to us.�
You could say, �He looks terrible�, and the corpse would not respond.
�That�s the ugliest suit I have ever seen.�
�What an obnoxious dress.�
�I wouldn�t be caught in that dead.�
You can say all matter of stuff, and you will not offend the corpse.
A dead person has no opinion.
You will never be successful in standing for the Lord until you have a heart for the Savior, which means death to self.
D. A Result Of Self-Denial.
Lu 9:23 And he said to them all, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me. (KJV) A person who is given to an appetite for things of the world will not deny self. When our love for the Lord supersedes all other emotions then we will be on our way to �Standing Strong For The Lord�.
II. HAND ON THE SWORD Vs. 17.
Eph 6:17 "And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:"
How dreadful to have the very Word of God in your hands and not let the Word of God get hold of your heart. You must have the Word of God tucked into your heart if you intend to stand for the Lord. The KJV. This church is settled on the KJV issue. The KJV is not just another Bible of choice, rather a Bible of purpose and preservation. I believe the KJV is the only Word of God for the English-speaking people.
In some meetings the preachers get offended if you mention the KJV being the Word of God. If the mention of the KJV offends anyone, then they need to determine what the Word of God is.
So many Christians never open their Bible after leaving church on Sunday. If you are going to stand for the Lord you must have a steady diet of the Word of God. The Word of God will make a difference in your life. Let ask you this: Are you reading the Bible through this year? You could still start and read part of it through. Ps 119:9 Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word. (KJV)
There is always something fresh when you read the Bible, something that will strengthen your stand for the Lord.
A. Believe It. Faith comes by hearing the Word of God. As you read it just believe it no matter how difficult if may seem. I have had some Christians tell me that certain portions of the Word of God were hard for them to believe. I have never had that problem. I believe it. Back there where God parted the Red Sea and the Israelites walked over to the other side on dry ground � when the fine tuned the vocal chords of Balaam�s donkey and the donkey spoke to him is as real to me as is my phone number. When God stopped the movement of the Sun in the Book of Joshua, it is as real to me as is the existence of this building we are occupying right now. I believe the Word of God. You must believe it if you intend to stand for God.
B. Behave It. All this means is to be obedient.
1. It feeds your soul.
�Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness for they

Singer/Songwriter Ne-Yo doesn't need to sing. The Las Vegas based artist had made his money as a premier songwriter some time ago, but there always seems to be that nagging bug that wonders "What if that was me instead of (place your favorite singer Ne-Yo has written for here)??" His chance came when he dropped his Def Jam debut, In My Own Words to the tune of triple platinum worldwide. The singer/songwriter had arrived and taken the scene by storm. As Ne Yo stretched into acting roles and continued penning hits for huge acts (ex: Beyonce's "Irreplaceable") he began to craft his follow up album, Because Of You. Is the magic still there for Ne Yo to be a huge artist, or are we simply biding our time until the new Usher album drops?
Because Of You is an album that oozes of Ne-Yo's influences. When Jay-Z announces on "Crazy" that "Ne-Yo's like Young Michael/I'm Quincy Hov," it is evident where this album is headed. While some albums completely jack an era, Ne-Yo does a great job paying homage to 80′s R&B while implementing good songwriting throughout. The aforementioned "Crazy" gives off the energy of early Michael Jackson solo outings, as Jay-Z chips in just to lend a little support. He also channels the energy of Prince on "Sex With My Ex" with the electro drums racing around some edgy guitars. It provides the perfect backdrop to Ne-Yo's brash sentiments of banging his ex lady. Although it sounds overt, it really isn't and that's the beauty of excellent songwriting - to imply without saying. It's an art that Ne-Yo has taken seriously, and it echoes throughout.
"Angel" is another instance of brilliant songwriting. Ne-Yo creates an unusual concept of loving an angel – not a girl - an "actual" angel. "I'm in love with an angel, but she don't belong to me" carries on as the 80′s production takes hold of Ne-Yo as he delivers what can be termed a "beautiful" song. In this era of R&B it is indeed difficult to find great writing. "Leaving Tonight" features American-Idol-castoff-turned-Oscar-winning-Dreamgirl, Jennifer Hudson, as the two beef about a lady that gets her own ringtone in Ne Yo's phone. It's a cute song that allows Hudson to break out of her acting shell to show that her pipes are quite masterful. "Say It" is a swanky love song that is sure to drop the drawers with its sexual innuendo, while "Addicted" playfully allows Ne-Yo to explain his hunger for sex.
Sure, Ne Yo doesn't have the strongest vocals around. He may not be the best looking, best dancer, best singer but the dude really knows how to make an album. While "Go On Girl" sounds inexplicably like Beyonce's "Irreplacable" and "Make It Work" is pretty bland, Because Of You is an album worth getting as it talks to the new generation while hearkening the R&B the old heads have been complaining about for the last decade. Will he replace Usher? Nah, but Usher needs to make room as Ne-Yo isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Motty's semi-final preview - Uruguay v Netherlands
The first of the World Cup semi-finals takes place on Tuesday, with Uruguay facing the Netherlands in Cape Town at 1930 BST.
Motty previews the game as well as giving us a footballing history on the two nations.

Alright Motty.
I think the Dutch will get to the final. But I really cannot see past Spain. They have got the results without stepping up and peaking. I fear for Germany, I think Spain have the intelligence and experience to oust them. Holland V Spain will be a European spectacle of a final, but I think this Spainish team are tough to beat. Even the game they lost in the group stage against Switzerland was lucky. Spain dominated. They were very unlucky to not get a draw at least.
Spain will be the first team to lose their opening game and win the WC.
England Fan.

I hope it's a Germany v Uruguay final.
Why? It's simple.. Germany have been the best team by far in this tournament, they know when to peak at the right time and play lovely attacking football, and as for Uruguay, well it's more interesting for an unfancied underdog to make it, they have a great team spirit and prove that having "world class superstar primadonas" isnt necessarily the way forward.
Spain have been good but not great, they play nice stuff but rely to heavily on 1 man, Villa.
Holland have been efficient but average, nothing more.
so germany 2 - 1 spain
holland 1 - uruguay 1 ( uruguay win on pens)
final score... not bothered, happy either way

Uruguay vs Germany final in my opinion. I dont think the Spanish have been impressive and the Germans are young and full of running, their endeavour and passing has exploited gaps in defences that other teams could not
As a United fan I enjoy seeing Forlan doing so well, but my head says Germany for the WC and so does my wallet with a tasty £50 straight on them to win it!!
Come on Germany!!!!

I think Uruguay will beat The Netherlands but I really hope I'm wrong. The Netherlands have arguably underachieved on their potential in previous world cups, and i think the arguments within the team will arrive.
Again i hope Spain will beat Germany, as I like their players, but having seen Germany's performances against Argentina and England, and Spain's performances so far in this world cup, I think Germany are the greater team.

I would really love the Netherlands to win. They have played attractive football & have great players such as Robben & Schneider, but I think Germany will beat Spain & go on to win. They just seem to know how do well in tournaments. In the past they have got to finals with what all the pundits considered a rubbish team.

Uruguay shouldn't even be there. The ref should simply have awarded a goal because the ball went over the line. It wouldn't have been the worst decision at this World Cup. Holland v. Ghana would have been an interesting game. As it is, the Cloggies will win comfortably.
In the other game, Spain seem to be under the misapprehension that they're playing handball. The hypnotic (literally "sending to sleep")Spanish cobra will come up against the German mongoose (which, apparently is "Mungo" in that language. Lends a whole new dimension to Mungo Jerry, as it were).

I really like Uruguay. Forlan and (even the cheating) Suarez are great players and for a nation of under 3.5 million people to be doing so well is one hell of an achievement. Trouble is I like the Dutch even more and have liked them since I was a kid. Nevertheless, although the Dutch will be favourites, Uruguay will be no push over.
As for the other semi, although Germany have been mighty impressive, unlike before, everyone now knows how seriously they must be taken, including Spain. Plus, Spain's defence is better organised than Argentina's, so this is a tough game to call.

4. Spain have shown, in my opinion, the most fluid and well paced football of the tornament as opposed to the effficient a ruthless german play.
5. The germans have only even reached the semis because evey team they have played against have been masively off form except serbia, who unserprisingly one. Germany are good at sniffing weakness but have only reached this point on others failings, not their sucesses in my opinion.
6. Uruguay have had prehaps the easiest path to the final in world cup history
7. No team who can only draw with the worst french team ever deserves to win the world cup.

..couldn't agree with that comment more and I'd love English referee Howard Webb to award the Dutch some 'PAYBACK' for Jack Taylor giving Germany a first minute penalty back in '74! (wouldn't that be funny after what the Germans said regarding Lampard's goal).
Strangely, I had Holland down as my winners on the BBC's predictor table from the start (maybe I have Octopus genes?) - problem is how to suppress the natural urge to support Spain in knocking Germany out in the semi first, thus spoiling the chance...it's a bit of a conundrum isn't it!?

Jon Stewart's "List of Things I Don't Understand About France"
- Why do all your elderly middle-aged bureaucrats have really hot spouses or girlfriends?
- Why are all your skunks so date rapey?
- Why, when you buy a baguette, do you only get half a bag to put it in? I mean, bag is in the name.
- Why do you put your most hunchbacked people in charge of ringing your heaviest bells?
- Do you really think your kid should be drinking wine?
- Why do you have so much trouble walking against the wind? How windy does it get there?
- Gérard Depardieu.
Why are all your skunks so date rapey
I like The Daily Show, so sometimes if I'm home late at night, I'll catch snippets of that. I think Jon Stewart's brilliant. It's amazing to me the degree to which he's able to cut through a bunch of the nonsense – for young people in particular, where I think he ends up having more credibility than a lot of more conventional news programs do.
Jon Stewart speaks for the people.
Mitt Romney being a tool.
I really need to catch up on the Daily Show.
I'm just going to say it. If you side with Fox News on the clips presented here by John Stewart, you are a bad person. I was once "I don't know if I will be able to buy food next week" poor, and it's not fun. I can't believe the Republicans/Fox News are suggested that instead of taxing the rich, we tax the people who are so poor that they don't pay income taxes. How can people buy into this stuff? It's evil. Our country should be better than this, a lot better.

Madison Hileman
Program of Emphasis: Psychology
Hometown: Altoona, PA
High School: Altoona Area Sr High School
Why I chose to attend Juniata: I chose Juniata College because it is a family tradition. My great grandfather, John Wolfe, played football here, and my older sister, Breanne Hileman, just graduated from here last year. Along with this school being a family tradition, I also chose this school because it has such a beautiful and welcoming campus.
Clubs and Organizations: Caring For Kids with Cancer is a club that I joined a few weeks into the semester. This club is new to Juniata this year. As of right now we are fund raising. I am selling "CFKC" bracelets to help bring money to the club.
Most Interesting Class: The most interesting class that I have taken this year was World Literature. I did not think that I was going to like this class, but after a few weeks I loved it. It helped me understand new cultures, and think about them in a different way, rather than a more "american" or ethnocentric way.
Favorite Faculty Member: Kathy Jones, my general adviser, has made a difference in my life. She has helped me greatly with my transition to Juniata College. I appreciate all of the time she takes to help me, and she is always in a pleasant mood. I can go to her with any problem, even if it is not academically related. She has created a very trusting, and comfortable environment for me.
Thank you!
Receiving this scholarship was an honor. It was so helpful to me because it allowed me to come to Juniata College. Since the cost of tuition is so high, I really needed a scholarship to help me out with the cost. This scholarship was a great help and helped make my dream of going to Juniata come true. Without this support, I would have struggled to find money to pay for college, so I am very grateful that I was awarded this scholarship.

How to Bend
PVC Pipe
bend looks neater? Smoother? More professional?
After you've mastered the basics of making PVC
projects, here's how to form PVC pipe into the
shape you want. Actually, it's pretty easy once
you learn the way I've been doing it. No need to
spend hundreds of dollars on specialized PVC
pipe bending equipment... everything necessary
to get set up should cost less than $35!
how not to bend PVC pipe.
Now, the right
Tools Needed
Pipe Cutter
or 3/4-inch PVC Pipe
practice, cut a length of 3/4-inch diameter
(1/2-inch works as well) PVC pipe, about 3 feet
long, then lay it on a flat surface... garage
floor, sheet of plywood or whatever. (Read "Is
Working with PVC Safe?")
Turn the heat gun on high, place the "business
end" about an inch, or thereabouts, from the
section of pipe you want to heat. (If you get
too close, you'll likely burn the pipe.) Slowly
turn the pipe and move the heat gun back and
forth 3 or 4 inches in each direction.
Be sure to wear a good pair of leather gloves
and work in a well-ventilated area.
You'll see that, in just a minute or so, the
pipe becomes malleable. Turn off the heat gun,
pick up the pipe and slowly curve it to the
desired shape.
Sand. Use clean sand that you can get from most
any hardware store. Or pick up a small bucketful
of sand from a yard and garden shop, from the
beach, or wherever.
Next, fit a PVC
cap onto one end of the pipe, fill it with sand
and tamp it down (I use a wooden dowel). Then
place another cap on the opposite end.
Do not glue the caps to the pipe.
the pipe as described above. The sand evenly
distributes the heat and will keep it from
kinking. Bend the pipe, then let it cool for a
couple of minutes.
No Sand... Bad
Sand... Good
You can speed-up the cooling process by wiping a
wet sponge on the pipe.
Pull the pipe just a smidge beyond the desired
radius. Because of the recovery characteristics
of PVC, the pipe will often "spring back"
slightly after cooling.
Method #2
Instead of sand, you can insert a spring, such
as the Pipe
Viper. For large diameter pipe, I insert
a used garage door spring. I acquired a couple
of them free that were discarded by a garage
door supplier.
Follow the directions above.
Attach a wire, or small chain, at one of the
spring to aid in removal after the pipe cools.
Recently, I tested a nifty tool called PVC
BendIt®. If you do a lot of bending – and
don't mind spending a bit of money –
you'll find this little beauty indispensable.
Take a look at the bends I easily made in the
1/2-inch and 1-inch pipe. Each bend took about
40 seconds.
One of the things I like about the BendIt
device is you don't need to insert sand or a
spring when bending, which makes it easier and
quicker to bend the pipe.
You should check
it out. And tell 'em Brooks sent you.
(No, I don't get a commission. It's just a cool
tool to own.)
Your Own
Bending Jig
thing to know is how to get the same radius each
time you bend the pipe when you make duplicate
projects. Or, for example, the same curve for
arms of a chair.
For that, you'll need to build a simple bending
jig. Cut a sheet of plywood into a 3-foot
square. (Depending on your project, the square
can be bigger, or smaller.) On the plywood,
pencil in the radius you want to bend. Then,
hammer in a few nails along the line.
Prepare the pipe as before, heat and, when
ready, place the pipe alongside the nails and
bend. Repeat to make as many duplicates of the
bend as you need.
Hammer a nail on the opposite "side" of the pipe
at each end to hold the bend in place while it
To make a more permanent jig, cut a few short
lengths (three inches, or so) of 3/8-inch
diameter wooden dowels.
Draw a two-inch grid pattern on the plywood,
then drill holes at each intersection. Tap the
dowels into the holes. You can then move them
around for various radii. The tighter the grid
pattern you draw, say one-inch instead of
two-inch, the more variation you can achieve.
Here's one more way to make a PVC pipe bending
On the left-over sheet of plywood, draw your
radius and cut it out with a jig saw. You can
make several different curves with the rest of
the plywood. Then nail the piece to the 3-foot
square sheet of plywood, heat the pipe and bend.
Again, tap in a nail at each end of the pipe to
hold the bend in place while it cools.
PVC Pipe Made
Easier... Much Easier
To make bending easier, quicker and to get all
kinds of radii, I've come up with an
simple-to-build bending jig that utilizes a "peg
system." And it's pretty slick.
The tool can be
made with scraps. But, if you have to purchase
the materials, the cost should be under $20.
I've put full color photos and directions into a
manual that details exactly how to make the jig
in just a couple of hours. You can read
more about it here.
Anyway, with a bit of practice, you'll soon be
bending plastic pipe into all kinds of shapes.
imagine what you can do with PVC
The possibilities are endless!

"BlackBerry Storm: I hate it!!"The good: Flat screenThe bad: Everything read below Summary: OK I guess I am the only one who hates the d***n storm...
I have it for over half a year... and it drops calls all the time. Sometimes, I only hear the last ring because it is always thinking and misses everything or goes directly to voicemail. The phone is constantly reloading or something. When I try to type with the keyboard, I can't see the letters, and they are smaller than hell. It is suppose to be easy to use because each letter lites up before you actually hit it.. but the light lites up under your finger and the keyboard is so small that if you are on a letter near the one you really want you screw up....AND I HAVE VERY SMALL HANDS!!!!! I had the ENV before and never had a problem typing. I hate this phone.... it also has a mind of its own and when I push one application another opens...I thought there was a learning curve at the beginning but by the time I realized it was the phone I couldn't give it back....I HATE THIS PHONE...my kids have the IPhone and that is 100% easier to use and much more user friendly.

Got my first t-shirt from Sevenly.org today! I loved the design and the cause both, so it was a great purchase. For those of you who don't know, Sevenly.org is a bit like TeeFury, only $7.00 of the purchase goes to the charity designed on the shirt. The shirt is available for 7 days only!
I really wanted to order the one from this past week (that ended THIS MORNING!) but I wanted to make sure the size I ordered this shirt in fit before I went on ordering other ones :( Oh, well! Every cause is a worthy cause :)
This shirt goes to a charity preventing sex trafficking in India.

Exclusive remedies clauses: UAE law and the common law
An exclusive remedies clause provides that a party's remedy for breach of contract is restricted to the form of redress expressly prescribed in the contract to the exclusion of all other remedies that would otherwise be available at law. Such a clause means that a party's rights and liabilities are codified in the contract.
Exclusive remedies clauses frequently arise in construction contracts in the UAE and often prove to be a hotly contested issue. This article is therefore to consider exclusive remedies clauses from a UAE law perspective and, by comparison, briefly sets out the common law position (from where the concept is derived)…

General Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie, also known as Alexandre Dumas. Dumas shared the status of the highest-ranking black officer in the Western world only with Toussaint Louverture (who in May 1797 became the second black general-in-chief in the French military) until 1989. Born in Saint-Domingue, Alexandre Dumas was of mixed race, the son of a white French nobleman and a black slave mother. He was born into slavery because of his mother's status but was also born into nobility because of his father's. His father took the boy with him to France in 1776 and had him educated.

Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit, Win98 as Virtual Machine
How do I set up a dial-in server like in Windows 98?
Is it possible to set up a dial-up server in Windows 7? It's quite easy to do in Windows 98 but I can't find this functionality in 7.
I'm talking about sharing internet access with an old computer by connecting it back-to back with a new PC through RJ11 phone cord and USB modem.
I am able to do this by running Windows 98 SE in VMware Player.
I can't find any decent tutorial on Google. Any links would be much appreciated.

Washington D.C. police are on the hunt for security video that could prove to be the smoking gun in the Chris Brown assault case ... and the people who make your money may hold the key.
We've learned ... Metro Police have contacted businesses near the spot where Brown allegedly punched a guy in the face ... to see if security cams caught the fight on tape. But so far they've come up goose eggs.
Sources tell us ... the W Hotel -- where the fight occurred --- has cameras ... but they were not pointed in the direction of the melee. And we're told cops also struck out at a neighboring restaurant.
But ... our sources tells us the U.S. Dept. of Treasury -- located directly across the street from the hotel -- has numerous cameras attached to the building that could have captured the scene. Any video from those cameras would be in the hands of the Secret Service ... which handles security.
We talked to officials at the SS ... who are tight-lipped about their security measures ... neither confirming nor denying there is video ... or even if they would share it with local police in a misdemeanor case.
I hate Chris Brown.
I guess they're going to keep slapping him on the wrist until he goes to far and kills someone. This guy is a piece of work.
chris brown is such a nice person and a great role model. chris isn't going to jail because he is a good person and hasn't done anything wrong. I LOVE YOU CHRIS teambreezy for life :)

So many angry people on here.. lol, it's funny!!
I doubt he's innocent, no matter how anyone spins it. The reason I say that is because, even when he was proved guilty, he never was remorseful, and never did anything pre-emptive in terms of going to rehab prior to being proved guilty. So for him to go to rehab, prior to being "proved" guilty, shows he must know they got him by the short hairs and his attorney convinced him that thumbing his nose, and middle finger, to the law will definitely land him in jail doing hard time. He's just never been the type to basically capitulate prior to shouting his innocence from the rooftops.
I hope, hope, hope the cameras show that freckle faced little POS sucker punched the guy and he gets put away for a few years.
Ugly ass punk looks like a friggin chipmunk
There is no way the Federal Government will ever hand over the tape if there is one?
I am so tired of seeing this guy and kanye's face. Brown beat the living crap out of a girl and got nothing, west assaulted several photogs and insulted Taylor Swift and got nothing. They are not worth mentioning.
the fact he's gone running into rehab tells me he's guilty as hell and trying to cover his azz mighty fast cuz he fears prison.
If he broke the guys nose, I don't see how footage will help his case.
I think Chris Brown paid off the secret service agent to say that the victim told the cop Chris did not hit him since the cop has denied it so I do not think the secret service is going to turn over video since it probably shows Chris punching the guy and he probably paid them all off! I wish some other place had security video of him punching the guy. Throw this POS in jail before he kills someone.
Metro police? Yall need to get it right! Its DC police or MPD. Y'all make it sound like the metro bus police lol.
Your a little PIG!! WHEN I SEE ON YHE STREET AGAINN IM GONNA BEAT YOU BITCH!! THE THING WITH REHIANNA IS JUST WHO YOU ARE..Witing for you when u get out of PRISON..WHOS THE BITCH NOW!!'

Information Guide for Postdoctoral Scholars
Your unit headquarters and the MIT Department of Facilities website are your best starting points for learning about your options. Many postdocs choose housing near public transportation, particularly the "red line" of the "T" (subway). MIT subsidizes the purchase of monthly passes for the MBTA (subway, bus, and commuter rail) transportation system. This is an option only for employees (Postdoctoral Associates) who are eligible for payroll deduction and do not have a full parking permit. Parking on campus is limited, and your unit headquarters can tell you whether or not it is an option for you. The website listed above includes details on public transportation, parking, bicycling, a variety of on-campus and area shuttles, ride sharing, car sharing, short term "Zipcar" rentals, and more. The International Scholars Office has helpful information about Boston's Public Transportation System and Massachusetts Driver's Licenses, Identification Cards, and Cars.

I took a couple days off from my inspection of the Oakland Raiders depth chart to do a couple other things, but with the players checking into the Napa Marriott in the next 24 hours it's time to get back to it.
No.1 Javon Walker
Walker will be examined early and often by Raider coaches during training camp. He may be cleared to play by then, but it's still unclear what to expect from the wide receiver. Walker was held out of the second practices of the mandatory mini-camp and OTA's. Twice Kiffin referred to Walker's weight, once telling the Sacramento Bee,"he's a little heavy right now." Walker has said all the right things since his Vegas mugging to try and reassure his coaches that he'll be there for training camp, and fans that he'll be ready for the start of the season. I still don't trust him, but with his back already against the wall due to the many questions about his commitment and work ethic, maybe his effort will increase. I'm hoping he feels regret for his conditioning and choices in Vegas, and proves to everyone that he wants it as much as he says he does. Next Up: practice starts Thursday, the first chance for Walker to live up to his words.
No.2 Ronald Curry
Curry has recovered from offseason surgery to remove bone-spurs in his left foot, and not only looks to be ready to run at 100% by training camp, he looks stronger. "I never took the weight room too seriously. I would do just enough," Curry said. "But Kiffin wanted me to get in there and really hit the weights, and [strength] coach [Brad] Roll was really a blessing for me." Having trained with both football players and power lifters for most my adult life, I can't stress how important I think the weight room is to staying healthy on the field. Curry didn't make any of the mini-camps, and seemed to sit out every other play during OTA's, but when he showed up, he made sure to impress. Anyone concerned with Curry's surgery needn't be, because the 6'1" pass catcher played at a high level even with the injury last year, and in no way are the bone-spurs linked to any of his prior injuries. Next Up: dust off the rest of the rust with a strong training camp.
No.3 Drew Carter
This was one offseason move that I was really excited about, and after mini-camps and OTA's I've got reason to think Carter may surpass my expectations. "He has been really impressive," said a team observer. "He has looked like the best player at the position during workouts." JaMarcus Russell has been able to find the 6'3" former Panther with ease. With Walker and Curry out for the better part of the last few months, Carter has become Russell's primary target and the receiver he trusts the most. Carter is a bigger target than Curry, and might find himself on the outside no matter if Curry and Walker get the nod to start or not. Curry has always been effective inside, and Carter has the frame to stretch the field, so if Carter can finally live up to his amazing skills the Raiders might have one hell of a threat down field; Walker or no Walker. Next Up: continue to keep play at a high level, and force Walker and Curry to keep up.
There was little I could find on the remaining receivers that I could assess, so here's from a guy who gets a closer look; NFL writer Jerry McDonald.
No.4 Johnnie Lee Higgins – "Higgins is being talked up by Kiffin for his playmaking skills and improvement in Year 2, and will be given every chance to be the punt return specialist."
No.5 – Todd Watkins – I do know Watkins well, and am glad to have heard many good things about him this offseason. "Based on what he showed in the offseason, Watkins is an extremely gifted physical receiver who has a chance to stick if either of the rookie draft picks isn't deemed ready for the 53-man roster."
Rookie Draft Picks: Chaz Shilens and Arman Shields – "Shields and Schilens both seem extremely bright and earnest, and have the physicality the Raiders are looking for as receiving partners for Russell. Shields is a project who needs plenty of snaps but who promptly had a hamstring pull, robbing him of valuable learning time. He will need to catch up to Schilens in training camp."
Long shots: Jonathon Holland, Chris McFoy, Drisan James, Will Buchanon (just cut to make room for Greg Wesley) – "McFoy was elevated to the 53-man roster late last season, but rates no better than a longshot to stick this year along with one-time camp phenom Buchanon, Holland and James."
Marcel Reece – "Kiffin would love to see Reece make a move if for no other reason that the Washington receiver made the training camp roster on a tryout basis. If he were to contend for a roster spot or make the practice squad, he would serve as an example that draft status or salary takes a back seat to production when it comes to making the team.
Reece has a tight end's size and a wideout skills."
Tight Ends
No.1 Zach Miller
One of the bright spots last season was Millers progression. Great numbers (44 rec. 444 yds. 3 TD) came as Millers effort on the practice field and in the film room increased. Miller's draft concerns (4.86 40, 16 reps at the bench) came to show early in 2007. He struggled with blocking and getting off the line quick enough to get down field. By the end of the season Miller had improved on all levels, but will never be a great blocker or get any faster. He runs precise routs, takes the right angle to get the most out of his strength when blocking, and doesn't let the defender keep him from getting off the line of scrimmage. Miller is kind of like the complete opposite of Rickey Dudley. Miller struggles with speed and power, something Dudley didn't lack. Where Dudley failed was with rout running and pass catching; exactly what Miller excels at. Next Up: sophomore year begins on July 24th, hope there's no slump.
No.2 John Madsen
I love the way this guy always finds a way to get open. He lacks everything you want in a tightend: size, strength, speed; but yet he's always open. He's not the prettiest rout runner, but catches every pass thrown his way. He even seems to break a tackle or two with ease after every catch. Madsen's an average blocker that's not going to get much better, and most of the time needs to be used off the line of scrimmage to find success. He's nothing special, but one hell of an asset to this team. Next Up: look for him to at least triple his current 1 touchdown a season average.
No.3 Tony Stewart, No. 4 & 5 Chris Wagner, Darrell Strong
"Stewart was a non-factor in the passing game, his two main roles being as a special teams player and as the union player rep.
Wagner and Strong are practice squad hopefuls." – Jerry McDonald
