"The driving force in the VFX production comes down to two things; passion and people," notes Peter Ware. "Drawn By The Light's partners have immense passion for the work and respect their artists. With their team camaraderie and innovative approach they are destined to be a creative force in the industry. I look forward to our long and successful collaboration."

More than six years after Jodi Parrack, 11, was murdered, we finally know more about how she died.
Parrack was found in the Constantine Cemetery after she did not come home from a friend's house in November 2007.
Her death was ruled a homicide. However, it was not until Tuesday that a medical examiner listed the cause of death as asphyxiation resulting from strangulation, according the Sturgis Journal.
Raymond McCann, 46, a person of interest since the beginning, was arrested last month on charges of perjury.
The affidavit claimed McCann acted suspicious the night of Jodi's murder and lied to police about what he was doing during that time.

PROVIDENCE — North Smithfield's resurgent football program took a step backwards on Saturday afternoon, turning the ball over five times during an 18-10 loss to Hope High.
"Extremely frustrating," Northmen coach Wes Pennington said when asked to describe what he had just seen. "We fought hard but you can't win football games turning the ball over like that."
Fresh off a season-opening 55-26 romp over Burrillville, the Northmen entered their Division IV opener seeking to maintain the momentum built by the 2010 squad that qualified for the playoffs with a 6-2 league record.
Hope also made the playoffs last year and returned "a real good group of seniors," according to coach Michael Gibbons. Those seniors played a key role in Saturday's outcome.
North Smithfield's biggest turnover came early in the fourth quarter, right after Hope had taken a 12-7 lead. The Northmen hit on a 23-yard pass from Dan Jordan to tight end Peter Keenan, putting the ball near midfield. Halfback Paris Correia then ran for 21 yards. An encroachment penalty on Hope put the ball at the Blue Wave's own 28-yard line. Momentum had clearly swung in North's direction.
On first-and-five, Jordan dropped back from center and tried to flip a screen pass to Correia in the right flat. Correia, however, was a yard behind his QB and the ensuing missed connection on the short pass became a live ball. Hope's Johnson Weah, arguably the best player on the field, beat Correia to the football, picked it up and ran 59 yards, all the way down to the 13-yard line. Halfback Delonce Wright needed just two carries to push across the game's decisive score.
North Smithfield responded with an efficient drive culminated by Jacob Walkow's 36-yard field goal with 3:38 left in the game, cutting the deficit to a doable 18-10.
The Northmen then rose up on defense to force a punt.
This is where Weah, a senior, hurt the visitors again, sending his boot 46 yards down the field to North's six-yard line. Jordan and Correia and company never had a chance as the Blue Wave defenders swarmed through the line of scrimmage for two sacks in the final minute of the game.
North Smithfield began the game gaining 14 yards on its first two carries. Correia got six and then Jordan scrambled for eight yards after missing an intended handoff to Mancini in the backfield.
On first down from North's own 39, Jordan and Mancini proceeded to botch another handoff, putting the ball on the ground. Hope's Corey Brinkman recovered at the 37 and the Blue Wave covered the remaining distance in six plays with Wright scoring from 25 yards out for a 6-0 lead.
North turned the ball over on downs on its next possession. It fumbled the ball away at midfield with 45 seconds left in the first quarter. Jordan was intercepted midway through the second quarter, then saw his desperation pass at the end of the half just elude the outstretched hands of Keenan at the end zone flag for what might have been a stunning last-second touchdown.
It was that kind day for the Northmen.
"We can run that screen pass 50 times in practice and get it right every time," Pennington said. "Maybe today was just one of those days. The kids get a little tired and the timing for a handoff or a pass is thrown off. One of our fumbles today was the quarterback's fault. Another was the fullback's fault. We have to do a better job than we did today. That's the bottom line."
North's lone touchdown drive came early in the third quarter. Correia, who rushed 18 times for 171 yards, began the possession by sweeping right end and cutting back across the field for a 33-yard gain. Four plays later, the hard-running junior raced 20 yards into the end zone to tie the game at 6-6. Walkow's extra point gave North its only lead of the day.
Hope went back ahead 12-7 on a 52-yard scoring drive early in the fourth quarter. A 27-yard run by Richard Collins got the ball to the 25 and teammate Delonce Wright covered the rest on the next play.
North Smithfield will visit Smithfield this coming Friday night. Smithfield dropped a 29-0 decision to Central Falls in its league opener this past Friday evening.

What do you drive?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 07-19-2013 - 11:52am
What do you like about it? What do you dislike about it?
I'm car shopping. Going from a minivan to midsized SUV. I've done so much internet research over the last few days that my head is swimming. I know what I liked driving but am curious about feedback from people who are driving/have lived with what I'm considering.
I have to say that the Highlander and Pilot are already out of the running. Highlander felt cheap--the seats, the finishes--I drive a loaded Sienna now expected similar comfort from the similarly quipped Highlander. Yeah, no. It reminded me of my first car, and not in a good way. The Pilot is too boxy for my taste. So that leaves the '13 Mazda CX-9, '13 Nissan Pathfinder (CVT transmission issues give me pause, but it is pretty and plush) and the '14 Kia Sorento. That list is in reverse order of preference...
Also, since I'm prying about cars, are there any features you find to be a must-have? Anything you thought you may not need but now can't live without? That sort of thing. Like, I'd never go back to cloth upholstery or unheated seats after having a toasty bum for five years. But, after 10 years of a built in entertainment system in my vehicle--I'm giving that up. I'm actually looking forward to listening to music instead of hearing DVD dialogue...and I'll buy a portable DVD player for long trips.
Anyway, just curious about your experiences...

We're an all Toyota family but chance not design. My husband has a 2009 highlander, 100K problem free. (Plastics, cloth seats are fine by him, he drives a lot and he finds it comfy). This car was bought new and ridden hard. We hope it will last for another 3 yrs and then most likely buried.
My daughter drives a 2008 Rav4 - bought used at 23K well under book value and also problem free - cloth and plastics, and we're cool.
I drive a 2007 Toyota convertible, leather heated seats are nice, but plastic interior doesn't bother me at all. It was bought used at 62K at well under book. New tires otherwise problem free after 30K, and I will drive it until it becomes unreliable.
I love my convertibles, but price, function over form is my necessity in a car. Because we live in a rural area, we put many miles on our cars, and we rarely buy new. I'm the car shopper, I hate it, but I've been very good at it for our value.

I have a 2012 Nissan Versa. So far, I love it. For a car of its size, the cargo capacity is phenomenal. In fact, I knew long before I was car-shopping that I would one day want one, based on our experience taking Joel to camp in my brother's Versa. We were able to fit a full drum set, 2 guitars and an amp, several tool boxes and bags of accessories, 2 suitcases, pillows and bedding, the wheelchair and transfer board, and 3 adults in there with no problem. And the back seat has tons of leg room, so my mother is happy. :)

I'm not particularly thrilled with the gas mileage (28 City, 33 Hwy, compared to my 15-yr-old Sentra that got 30-35 even in its old age) but other than that, it's been great.

DD3 has a 2013 Versa. She bought it for the cargo capability. She can haul 2 bikes in it.

I drive a Toyota Corolla. I love it. It was my empty nest present. The first vehicle I bought with just me in mind, not what worked best for the family.
It is a very good fit for me. Being short I was never comfortable driving our mini vans or pick-up truck.
But I do not think it would make a good family car. When we have had three adults in the back seat it is a tight fit. I think it would be the same with a couple of car seats.
|Fri, 07-19-2013 - 4:38pm
Jam, we did the same thing. We were shopping for an SUV because we have a lot of ice and snow here in the winter, but every 3rd row seemed way too cramped and there was no cargo space, so we ended up with an AWD Sienna. I love it. Hate the run-flat tires because they are $$$$ and you have to replace them every 2 years, but that's the only thing I don't like about it.
I will drive this thing until I no longer need the room, and then get a Prius or something like that. I also love the look of the Ford Flex, but won't need one that big when I'm ready to get rid of the Sienna.
|Fri, 07-19-2013 - 1:07pm
Do people lease minivans? I've never leased a car. We buy them. I've had my Sienna for 5 1/2 years. After over 10 years of driving minivans, I'm ready for something a bit more fun. And since my oldest will be driving in a few years, he'll get whatever I buy now. Which is why we're seriously considering his input in this process. I'm not going to saddle a 16 year old boy w/a minivan...
DH usually buys a new car every year. We drive a lot. Being comfortable in our vehicles is important to us. And do you know the improvements in car technology that have been made in the the last five and a half years? Stuff is standard in base models that wasn't even available as an upgrade when I bought my current car.

How long have you had your minivan, wannabe? I thought you were on here just a couple years ago talking about a minivan you had on order. Do you lease your vehicles? .
|Fri, 07-19-2013 - 12:52pm
I have a 2002 Suzuki Aerio with fewer than 70,000 miles. I just found out that Suzuki apparently went out of business, so it may be hard to find parts to fix it if it has problems. So, I'm kind of thinking about looking for a car. . . reluctantly.
They didn't go out of business; they've stopped selling cars in the US. They still sell elsewhere in the world. Your mechanic should be able to get parts.

Should the power industry adapt its approach to capital markets in this environment? The answer, of course, is yes. Multiple frameworks are necessary to establish a power company's or project's...
The Fortnightly 100 Revisited: Do Utility Stock Prices Reflect Operational Efficiency?
is poised for competition, and how effectively it communicates these to the public, this perception may or may not be favorable. This variable is represented in this analysis in the form of an index of deregulation activity. The index ranges from one to four based on the following designation:
retail choice approved for all customers, index value = 4;
retail choice approved for some customers, index value = 3;
retail choice under consideration, index value = 2;
little or no regulatory action on retail choice, index value = 1.
For utilities with operations in more than one jurisdiction, we weighted the index values, based on total megawatt-hour sales. Given the uncertainty inherent in the dynamics of competitive markets, we expect deregulation and open access to affect adversely market value. Figure 1 shows the M/B ratio for the various NERC regions.
4. Capacity mix: Fuel diversity provides flexibility in a changing environment. Potential supply disruptions and price fluctuations can raise rates and ignite political and regulatory pressure that ultimately may lead to erosion of financial performance. We hypothesize that the ability to alter generating sources and take advantage of lower cost fuels would be viewed favorably by financial markets. Fuel diversity in this analysis is represented in terms of a modified measure of entropy, the "G" index with a range of zero to one.fn6 It measures how generation of power is distributed among hydro, steam, nuclear and other fuel sources. The less concentrated is the power output, the higher the value of "G." Thus, if all of a utility's power were generated from a single source, the value of "G" would take the value of zero. Conversely, if generation were distributed evenly among four fuels, the value would be unity.
5. Operational Efficiency: For this category we relied on the universe of utilities and their efficiency ranks used for The Fortnightly 100, as published in Sept. 1, 1998. The method there employed Data Envelopment Analysis. DEA uses a mathematical optimization to construct a convex production frontier, tracking the input/output ratios of the most efficient companies. Companies that form the production frontier are considered efficient and receive a score of 1.0. All other utilities receive an efficiency score between 0 and 1.0, based on distance from the production frontier.
Other Miscellaneous Factors. The operation of nuclear plants poses a special challenge for electric utilities. While a nuclear plant can offer significant opportunities in resource flexibility, the aging stock of nuclear plants is likely to increase financial exposure resulting from higher maintenance expenses and uncertain costs of decommissioning. More stringent environmental restrictions also can add significantly to operation and maintenance costs and in disposal fees for spent fuel. To test this hypothesis, we included nuclear plant ownership as a separate variable in our analysis.
By contrast, we ignored consideration of several other variables, known to have a bearing on perceptions of performance and value in the financial community, particularly management and prices. Surely a utility's management is of paramount importance to its market performance, since management's decisions affect all areas of the utility's operations. But

Does turning the pot do anything to the speed? Are you sure you have hooked up the correct terminals on the pot?
your potentiometer (pot) should be wired as shown... using one side and center terminal on pot. (The on/off power switch can break either leg)
Components MUST match - both Fan and transformer output (Direct Current)
if AC, start over, get a light switch dimmer...
good luck!
Everything is hooked up correctly. I know this because the fan works the exact same through the pot and switch as it does straight to the power supply. I've tried two power supplies now both say output is 12V - 500mA and on was .2A and the other was .3A. The second power supply was actually purchased from an LED site (rapidled.com) that actually sells these to run pc fans as cooling units in light fixtures. I've had it hooked up to 2 smaller fans before that worked great. I think the issue must be the fan. For whatever reason the fan just isn't work. Any more ideas would be greatly appreciated but I just can't figure this out.
Primary: Empty
Secondary: Semi-Sweet Raspberry Mead
Bottled: Irish Stout, Cream Ale, Dry Hopped Pale
Kegged: Nut Brown Ale
I don't have another fan on hand I can try but I'll pick another one up just to be sure. Also I've read ten times that the middle wire on the fan is useless and not needed. Is leaving this out of the equation part of the problem? Should it be added to either end of the power supply?
Ok so the way I have mine hooked up I have the Red to the hot wire, the yellow to the negative and the black is not hooked up. Could this be the issue with the fan running slow or should it not run at all like this? I'm going to swap out the yellow and black wire when I get home and try that.

It's October in New York and with the turning of leaves there is a refreshing shift in style. For me, there is nothing better than a fresh start, a new season calls for an all important updated wardrobe and with that the exciting promise to reinvent. I see it as a clean slate to refresh my style, banishing the repetitive summer wears of barely there basics, and replacing them with rich fabrics and generously proportioned silhouettes. There is no doubt about it the hero of this season is knitwear. This one from Zara is a loud echo of the Celine knit-suit that stormed the runway and I couldn't be more obsessed with the long hand covering sleeves and slashed side slits. I'm wearing it here with some baggy cropped trousers, they make a nice change to the usual cigarette shape I go for, adding a much needed touch of volume, a look I'll be adopting in every way conceivable this fall. As for the loafers (Porter magazine is calling this manish chunky flat the 'new loafer shape' to covet) trust Zara to come up with a High Street equivalent of the ubiquitous Marni shoe. When I saw them online I knew they needed to be part of my new season refresh and judging from the insane response on Instagram, you all couldn't agree more.
And speaking of fresh starts, I shared some exciting news today on Instagram that I have found a job in fashion e-commerce in New York. It's a very similar role to what I was doing at Selfridges in London so I'm feeling very excited to finally get back on the career ladder! I'm going to apologise in advance for the sporadic posting on the blog that is bound to follow as I lead a normal 9 to 5 but I promise I have every intention to continue The Wears as I spent so much time building it and really love sharing my style inspirations with everyone. Thank you to everyone for reading and following my New York adventure so far x

Driver dies in single-car crash on I-295
A 56-year-old driver was killed Thursday afternoon when his 2004 Mercedes left Interstate 295 just before Hecksher Drive and struck a light pole and tree, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers say Dennis Fernandez was driving north on I-295 at 2:40 p.m. just after a rain shower when he lost control for an unknown reason. His car rotated over the grass shoulder before hitting the pole, then into the woods line and hitting a large tree.
Fernandez was transported to Shands Jacksonville Medical Center, where he died.

Brian Farragher, a New York native and 30-year veteran of managing residential treatment centers, was introduced Thursday as the new executive director of Hanna Boys Center.
Farragher, who will take over leadership at the revered 69-year-old Sonoma Valley institution in June, was on campus last week, with his wife, Anne, to meet the boys and attend Hanna's annual Evening with the All Stars, the center's signature fundraising event.
"Many of the kids here come from a background with a lot of adversity," Farragher said during an on-campus interview. "That changes the way they relate to the world."
Asked about his leadership strategy, Farragher explained, "You have to help them develop trusting, authentic relationships with adults. Of course, there have to be boundaries, but some residential programs focus too much on discipline and not enough on loving. Discipline without love is abuse."
Farragher, who is 56, began his career after college as a caseworker for abused and neglected boys at St. John's Home for Boys in his hometown of Rockaway Beach, the slender finger of land extending out into the Atlantic Ocean from the borough of Queens where Hurricane Sandy wreaked some of its worst havoc.
From St. John's, Farragher went back to school for a master's degree in social work, then became a caseworker with seriously disturbed children. In 1986, he became a program director at Andrus Children's Center, a Yonkers, N.Y. treatment facility serving some 2,500 families annually. In a 28-year career there, he rose to become executive vice president and COO, earning an MBA degree along the way.
That business degree gave Farragher added skills in funding the Andrus center's $31 million annual budget, and should serve well at Hanna, which is closing in on the $15 million goal of a years-long capital campaign. During the All Stars fundraiser Saturday night, the center brought in record auction proceeds topping $230,000.
Anne Farragher, who spent 36 years as a registered nurse and loves to garden, says she feels right at home at residential treatment facilities and is looking forward to the year-round growing season of the Sonoma Valley.
Brian Farragher arrives some 18 months after the resignation of Father John Crews, who headed Hanna for almost 29 years. Crews, an ordained Catholic priest and Navy reserve chaplain, left under a cloud when the relative of an alleged victim who had since died contacted the Diocese of Santa Rosa to report an act of sexual misconduct that allegedly occurred in the early 1970s.
The alleged victim and only witness was dead, and no corroboration was possible, but Crews immediately submitted his resignation to avoid any publicity damage to Hanna. Board members of the center made a point of stating that no complaints against Crews had ever been voiced during his decades at Hanna.
Farragher said he had an hour-long phone conversation with Crews Wednesday, and when he addressed an assembly of the center's boys Thursday, he told them, "I know I'm not here to replace him (Crews). I've worked in places where you're not supposed to talk about the person you replace. That's BS. You should never, ever forget him. You should keep him in your heart. Father Crews is a wonderful man. We give him his due."
Asked by a student how he will manage the institution, Farragher answered, "I'm not going to change anything right away. It's already working very well. I think I'm smart enough not to screw it up."
Farragher, whose father was a police officer killed in a traffic accident when he was 6-months-old, told the Hanna boys, "I was not a great student, I thought I was a bit of a dope. But I had people in my life who believed in me. I'm here not because I'm brilliant … but because people believed in me. And what we're going to do, what has been done here for decades, is find that place in you."

Playing for coach Jermaine Whitaker's son who passed away last week, the Tempe Marcos de Niza Padres started slow Friday, but kept fighting, eventually knocking out the Glendale Ironwood 43-7 in a 5A-II showdown at Marcos de Niza High School.
Led by quarterback Zach Schira, who didn't complete a pass until the second quarter, and a defense that didn't give up its first points of the season until the fourth quarter, the Padres (2-0) eventually found their groove and scored 36 unanswered points against the Eagles (0-2).
Despite their second blowout win to start the season (they beat Marana Mountain View 55-0 last week) the only thing that mattered after the game was Logan Mitchell Whitaker, coach Whitaker's six-month-old son who died last Saturday due to complications from birth.
"He passed away the same day my wife's mother passed away a year ago so it's been real tough on us," coach Whitaker said. "We appreciate everything everyone at Marcos has done for us. I'm truly blessed to be here right now."
"This victory is for coach Whitaker's son," head coach Roy Lopez said. "We're going to have a service to bury him tomorrow, so this is for him."
Marcos running back Ramon Abreu lifted the Padres spirits, scoring on a 3-yard run toward the end of the first quarter to put his team ahead 7-0.
In the second quarter, Schira finally got into a rhythm, finding tight end Brett Thompson for a 10-yard touchdown pass to push the lead to 14-0. On the Padres' next possession, Schira led an 8-play, 52-yard scoring drive that ended in a 5-yard quarterback sneak. Schira then found wide receiver Justin Rodriguez in the end zone for the two-point conversion to give the Padres a 22-0 lead at the half.
"He's a smart kid, he kept his composure (after a slow start)," Lopez said of Schira.
Schira picked up in the third quarter right where he left off in the second, finding Thompson again, this time for an 8-yard score that made it 29-0 and, thanks to the excellent Padres defense, put the game out of reach.
"The defense played an incredible game," Lopez said, "we can build on that."
The stellar Marcos defense did give up its first points of the season in the fourth, when Ironwood running back Tyrece Pegram punched in a touchdown from 6 yards away to close the gap to 36-7.
"That score was on the special teams," Lopez said. "We will be making some changes on there."
Despite the minor blemishes, the night belonged to coach Whitaker, who couldn't have been prouder of his team's performance.
"They (the kids) played with a lot of heart for my son," Whitaker said. "They dedicated this week to me and my son and I'm so proud of them. I appreciate everything they did for me."

One of the most ridiculous titles you'll be setting eyes on. But the actual incident may not seem as weird.
Herefordshire's Crown Inn was swarming with police officers this week as they overtoppled furniture, peeped under floorboards and used fiber-optic cameras to examine the crannies. All to find the mighty, the divine- Holy Grail.
The Nanteous Cup, a medieval wooden bowl, well, not quite a bowl, as half of it has broken off, is a historic relic that has been held in the Nanteos Mansion in Wales for centuries, ever since it was brought to them by monks in the sixteenth century. Myth has surrounded the relic, and it is believed that it can heal anyone who drinks from it. It is one of those most likely candidates for the Holy Grail.
The celebrated curio was stolen a month ago, and the police raided the Inn after receiving a tip-off that it might be located there.
Unfortunately, their searches proved futile, as pub landlady DI Franklyn says:
"We get a few rogues and scallywags in the pub, but no one who's quite on the level of stealing a priceless ancient artifact."

I no longer trust our electoral process; news venues; entertainment industry, schools or courts, and I darn sure do not trust our federal government
"A just law is a man made code that squares with the moral law or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law. To put it in the terms of St. Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just."
"Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. …We should never forget that everything Adolf Hitler did in Germany was "legal" and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was "illegal." (Italics added)—Martin Luther King Jr. (1929-1968) "Letter From a Birmingham Jail"
"Where a people contend not for glory or conquest; where they take every method to avoid an alternative so disagreeable; yet where they cannot preserve their lives, their liberties, their estates and their religion, without "resisting unto blood," they are to do so. If they do not, they offend against GOD, and voluntarily sacrifice the birthright which He has given them."—Peter Thatcher (1752-1802) "A Sermon Preached Before the Ancient and Honorable Artillery Company" June 3, 1793
"Lincoln said he had taken an oath to preserve the Union, but he was mistaken. He had taken not an oath to preserve the Union, but rather an oath to preserve the Constitution, and the Constitution did not in 1861, and does not now, prohibit the secession of an American state."—Donald W. Livingston "The Secession Tradition In America"
"What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."—William Shakespeare (1564-1616) "Romeo and Juliet" Act II. Scene II.
I am still not convinced that secession is the best remedy for what ails us, but I have been doing some thinking along those lines, and in this article I will share some of my thoughts with you. Secession is not my idea of a good time, but there it is, and here we are.
Right down the line I have advocated measures that would put the USA back on the track toward being a free republic—short of a bloody civil war. It may well be that secession is the last chance "we the people" have for avoiding such a catastrophic outcome.
Some people shy away from the notion of secession because "it will divide people." In case you haven't noticed, permit me to point out that we are already "a house divided," and the divisions to all appearances are irreconcilable.
Other people oppose secession because "it would mean the end of the United States." Here is where the above quote by Shakespeare comes in. It is from the play "Romeo and Juliet," and has Juliet telling Romeo that she loves him, not his name —that she is interested in who he is, not what label he goes under.
As Juliet puts it, a rose would be a rose no matter what you name it. Conversely, just because you label something a certain way does not change its reality. For example, one might call the malodorous carrion plant amorphophallus perrieri "The Pink Rose of Madagascar," but it will nonetheless still stink of rotting meat and feces. Certainly it will not "smell as sweet" simply because it has been labeled "a rose."
All of which is by way of leading up to the fact that the name the "United States of America," or the acronym "USA," are just labels, and do not necessarily reflect the reality behind them—or rather, the reality that should be behind them; the reality that was originally handed down to us by those who fought, bled and died in the "Revolutionary War."
America no longer stands for liberty, free enterprise, American exceptionalism, and God—it now stands for welfare, lawfare, warfare, Godlessness, and globalism
The name "United States of America" no longer stands for what it once did. It no longer stands for liberty, free enterprise, American exceptionalism, and God—it now stands for welfare, lawfare, warfare, Godlessness, and globalism. It stands for an ever-dwindling middle-class and an oligarchy of overlord elites. It stands for an arrogant and bloated bureaucracy lording it over "we the people" with blatant disdain and disregard for rules of law and liberty. The name, the label, "USA" no longer represents anything worth fighting for. FREEDOM is worth fighting for, not outdated labels.
The United States did not exist as such when the "Declaration of Independence" was written—nor was there any Washington DC, or US Constitution. The Founders made it up as they went along. They did not fight and die for the United States—there was no United States—they fought and died for freedom. They did not put their lives and fortunes on the line for the "USA"—they did so for liberty. They did what they did so that they could shatter the shackles of tyranny and live as free men and women. "Live free or die"—ring any bells?
I mention all this because I can envisage an argument starting over who has the rights to the name "USA." Let the liberals keep the name if they want, and the welfare, warfare, and lawfare for which it stands—and we'll keep the values and principles which it used to represent.
Any new republic that is to rise from the ashes of the old must be founded in liberty, and led by men and women of courage, wisdom, foresight, and vision. They must, like the original Founders, be able to think outside the box, yet have the wisdom to retain that which is time-tested and valuable from our past. Personally, I would recommend taking the "Declaration of Independence" and "US Constitution" along on any new endeavor.
I do not mean to make light of the topic—secession is a serious matter. Thomas Jefferson noted that "Prudence…will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed." (Italics added)
To frame Jefferson's words in modern language—you had better have some darn good reasons for dissolving the bonds with your existing form of government. People will put up with a lot of aggravation before bestirring themselves to take to the streets, because throwing off the chains of tyranny is a major undertaking. It took the colonists untold hardships and eight long years to throw off their shackles. God knows how long it would take us. Longer? Shorter? I have no idea.
What about working things out through give and take—working with liberals to reach some mutually agreeable compromise? That may have been feasible in the past, but any more the liberal idea of "give and take" is we give and they take. The chasm separating the Makers from the Takers; the moochers from producers, has become too wide for any further meaningful dialogue. It is what it is.

LATAM Airlines Group will reduce its C02 emissions by 10,000 tons per year by changing containers
LATAM Airlines Group and its affiliates announced the purchase of 3,517 ultra-light Kevlar' containers from Nordisk Aviation Products. These modern containers will replace all of those currently used in the company's cargo operations as well as those of LAN CARGO and its affiliates, MasAir, LAN CARGO Colombia and TAM Cargo.
These air containers make it possible to transport large cargo volumes in a single unit, as well as helping to mobilize different types of cargo more rapidly, efficiently, and with greater security and control. The material used to manufacture the containers ' Kevlar - has many advantageous properties, including high impact resistance and excellent stability when exposed to extreme temperatures. Kevlar' is 5 times stronger than the same amount of steel by weight, providing an ideal combination of ultra-lightness and strength.
'We are very happy with this new acquisition, as it represents a major investment being made by our companies 'more than USD 9 million- that will yield savings in fuel and maintenance as well as reducing annual CO2 emissions by 10 million tons annually', stated Fernando Poitevin, Vice-President of Operations for LAN CARGO.
The Kevlar' containers are 30% lighter than the current aluminum containers, and are made of the same material used to manufacture bulletproof vests as well as other products such as underwater cables and space vehicles, and in military applications, including the aeronautical industry.
This agreement supports the long-term commitment of LATAM Airlines Group and its affiliates to improving fuel efficiency and thus lowering our environmental impact. The new containers will be used in several aircraft models included in LATAM fleets and those of its affiliates, including the Boeing 777F-300 cargo plane, one of the most modern and efficient aircraft in the industry.(Reuters)

Transistor Equipped Microphones Using Audio Frequency Circuitry
In the course of conversion of many electronic devices from tube to semi-conductor operation, the condenser microphone seems for the longest time to have remained in the domain of tube technology. The generally used audio frequency circuitry of the condenser microphone requires an amplifier with extremely high input impedance, while at the same time demanding wide dynamic range and minimal self-noise level, something which is impossible to achieve using ordinary transistors.

I don't disagree but what I was pointing out is that the Yashica's are 25 years or so younger, so don't need a CLA unless you're very unlucky. Mine didn't, it worked perfectly.

As a professional motivational speaker, I have been "edutaining" audiences for years. Empowering, encouraging and inspiring others is my passion. It is tremendously satisfying to use my experience as a business executive, workshop designer, motivational speaker and personal transformation coach to help young people lay the groundwork for quantum change. My skills, experience and qualifications are perfectly aligned with your needs. Earlier in my career, while working the New Jersey Department of Corrections, I began to see that I had a gift for shaping behavior through coaching and inspiration. The personal transformation techniques that I employed in that role brought me success in the corporate world and with Landmark Education Corporation, where I spent ten years leading seminars, managing sales and recruitment and overseeing volunteer programs in the United States and in Africa. Throughout the 90s, I created initiatives designed to spur personal and cultural transformation in every socio-economic group. As the Director of the Youth Business Entrepreneur Program for the Boys & Girls Club of Chicago, I helped teens launch and run a manufacturing company. In 1995, I partnered with the Chicago Alliance for Neighborhood Safety and the Chicago Police Dept to design and coordinate the city's first-ever community alternative police training workshops. As the co-founder of the International Black Summit, I designed and delivered workshops that have helped thousands develop a vision for the future. In 2000, I co-founded The R.E.A.L. One, LLC, a leadership development partnership and co-created Transcending Differences: Breaking the Cycle of Prejudice, a groundbreaking seminar designed for Canadian business and members of the Human Rights Commission of Nova Scotia. Today, I lead The Young Group, a consulting practice that helps clients reveal passion, recover vision and transform both into action plans that produce fulfilling and rewarding results using experience

I get what you are saying.
I just can't understand how it would be beneficial to them to destroy there future that they are working so hard to build towards, just to get rid of one bad contract that isn't a huge negative factor right now anyways since they aren't a contender.
Also your not taking into account the finacial situation in Long Island, as I said to someone else, Buyouts aren't as easy as they sound.
Owner's don't generally like doing it because is just paying for your mistakes as GM.
You're being obtuse.
From the start I was making the point the Isles can't afford the buyout.
You suggested they'd buy him out themselves.
Now you're telling me I haven't considered their financial situation?
As you said to someone else?
They can't afford the buyout or the contract. That's the point Smashian.
That's why a rich team for whom buying assets would make sense, ie a contender for whom the investment could pay off, would consider the trade and buyout - in exchange for the assets.
Things have changed - and teams from both ends of the spectrum are bound to take advantage of the terms.

Hurricane Sandy
Posted By GKC On November 4, 2012 @ 2:00 am In Blog | 2 Comments
In the days after Hurricane Sandy, many of us are managing (well barely!) with no power, heat, hot water, closed schools, and an inability to get around easily. Honestly, we are the lucky ones who are just suffering without these luxuries. Many people lost their homes, or sustained tremendous damage that they must somehow manage. It's always amazing to see how friends and communities pull together to help one another in these types of emergencies – from calling to say, "come stay with us", to sharing their generator electricity, to late night rescues from water-flooded homes or just enjoying a game of Monopoly by flashlight. I am so privileged to know these types of people and grateful for the welcome they gave us.
On a much lighter note, I cannot help thinking about some of the ideas that came to mind while trying to cook without power. The main goal was to use whatever perishable ingredients I had on hand. Second, I only have a gas powered cooktop so I was limited to cooktop items.
The first night we enjoyed a homemade marinara sauce. I added some flanken that I browned in a pan and then slow cooked it in the marinara sauce for about 45 minutes. The result was a delicious, thick and rich tomato sauce. I cooked some pasta, added a bit of the pasta water to the marinara sauce pan and coated the pasta with the meat sauce. Dinner 1 is done!
The second night I made Asian Chicken Salad Cups [1]. It used up all my leftover chicken from Shabbos and quite a few other refrigerator and pantry items. We devoured the No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Oatmeal Bundles [2] while playing board games by flashlight. Mission accomplished.
The third night, we went to a friend….game over

A MAN who tried to make easy money by advertising prostitutes on a website was described as a "pimp" by a judge.
Robert Andrew Pettener, 28, sent out messages on Facebook to random women asking them if they would like to work as prostitutes.
A court heard yesterday how one of them was sent to a 16-year-old girl who was horrified at the suggestion and felt very scared.
Judge Philip Hughes branded Pettener a drug-dealing pimp.
Mold Crown Court was told that between November 2012 and January last year he incited women to become prostitutes.
The defendant, formerly of Coleshill Street, Holywell, but now of Bindley Avenue, Winsford, Cheshire, admitted six offences of inciting prostitution for financial gain, possessing cannabis with intent to supply, and supplying cannabis.
He was jailed for a total of two years and two months.
Pettener, whose girlfriend is heavily pregnant and standing by him, was told by Judge Hughes that from November 2012 to mid January 2012 he became involved in trying to persuade young women "to become sex workers for you".
He had used his mobile phone to try and find girls who were already involved in the sex trade but it was quite obvious he was contacting other young women via Facebook.
One girl as young as 16 received a template recruitment message he had prepared "out of the blue". Pettener had disguised his identity.
"You were trying to get her to become a prostitute," Mr Hughes told him.
Analyses of his mobile phone showed he had been in negotiations with others asking what services they would provide clients – with him claiming a cut for managing their work for them.
"You were effectively a pimp," he said.
He said Pettener exploited young women for financial gain.
They were nasty offences with the potential for significant gain.
Matthew Dunford, prosecuting, said a police investigation was set up after police were alerted to the message sent to the 16-year-old girl.
He had suggested she work for £65 an hour, with £200 up front.
At the time, Pettener was working as a carer at the New Hall Independent Hospital and when arrested at work, he told officers: "Can we go please, it's embarrassing."
On the way to the police station, he asked how old the girl was, and when told 16, he said it could have been worse, she could have been 12 or 13.
His phone was seized and his conversations with other women were found, including one where he was in dispute with one working girl over a debt he said she owed.
He was threatening to "sell" her debt to others.
Interviewed, he said he did not know the legalities of it.
Mark Davies, defending, said Pettener got the idea when he visited an escort while separated from his then girlfriend.
He described himself as a conduit or manager where male customers could meet females via his website, two of whom were already providing escort services.
It was not a sophisticated operation, it operated for a short period and he claimed that his financial gain was some £700.
He denied there was any coercion or threats to get the females involved in the first place.
As far as the cannabis was concerned, he grew his own, gave it up and then sold off his drugs to others – people he knew who were already users.
He had no intention of targeting young girls. He would look at their Facebook profiles and he believed they were 18 or over, the 16-year-old girl had been photographed holding a pint of lager and he believed she was older.
Pettener had a difficult childhood and since his arrest had made significant lifestyle changes.
Following his arrest he had lost job as a carer, lost his home and had been living rough for a period of time.
He now had a child due in three weeks time and his partner was a positive influence on his life and was standing by him.

Lower Manistee Below Tippy Dam River Fishing Report
September 2014
Michigan Guided Fly Fishing & Light Tackle Guided Fishing Trips on the Lower Manistee River for Salmon, Steelhead, and Trout.
(Steelhead / Trout / Salmon / Smallmouth)
The lower Manistee river below Tippy Dam has seen a little increase in flow with local rains (nothing like southern Michigan.) The cooler summer has the water several degrees below normal temps for Sept. Trout fishing remains good to great, mostly smaller fish with a bigger Brown trout in the mix. Caddis, Ants, Hoppers, and Bwo's are working well. A few summer steelhead are near the dam, but have also seen a fair amount of fishing pressure. First light has been the best chance at these Hot fish! Good mornings have produce as many as 5 of these fish on, and of course some days of no takers.
Salmon have also started to show, Fish are moving in good to great numbers this past week. Local rains have pushed a good number upstream in the deeper pools, and new fish have been hooked entering the river each day.
September will bring good to great numbers of fresh salmon into the river offering opportunities for streamers as well as gear fishing for these brutes. Mornings and overcast days lead to the best fishing. Most of September is spent on the Betsie river, less crowds and good numbers of fish. Late September and early Oct on the Big Manistee will see lots of spawning salmon!! A few steelhead and a fair numbers of browns can be hooked feeding on salmon roe. Mid October will bring good numbers of fall steelhead and the best fishing of the year will start!!

The Manistee River in Michigan, is also known as the "Big" Manistee or "Big River", runs into Lake Michigan, and has a great resident trout population (one of the better rivers to fly fish in the Midwest) with great runs of steelhead and salmon below Tippy Dam.
It is a medium sized trout stream in its upper reaches (CCC Bridge area) and a large dynamic steelhead and salmon fishery
When the demand for trout fishing slows in the fall in the upper section, salmon pick up the pace in August, with some great early streamer fishing. Large runs of Chinook and Coho salmon enter the river in September. Fall run steelhead follow the salmon into the river and top the list of great fish on a fly in early October
(steelhead enter the river to feed on salmon roe).
Originating a few miles to the east of Mancelona, the Manistee flows south for approximately twelve miles while paralleling the famous AuSable River which is just a few miles to the east. The difference between the two rivers is that after paralleling each other, the AuSable turns east (Grayling .Michigan) and flows into Lake Huron while the Manistee turns southwest, travels across the state and flows into Lake Michigan (offering many miles of great fly fishing opportunities). The Manistee flows for nearly a hundred miles from its headwaters to Lake Michigan.
The best trout water is found in its upper reaches from the vicinity of Mancelona Road (M-38) downstream over thirty miles to M-66. This stretch of river is small at first (approximately 15-25 feet wide) and gradually gets larger and swifter as it nears the M-66 Bridge (approximately 100-120 feet wide). The upper reaches of this stretch are home to beautiful brook trout and some great brown trout in small water. The farther downstream you venture the more brown trout you will find and the bigger the fish! There is also a healthy population of rainbow trout in the lower reaches of this section (rainbows up to the 10lb range can be found). The size of the fish can vary greatly, so cover a good amount of water. A guide and a drift boat can help your chances at a trophy trout! The overall consensus is that the farther downstream you venture, the larger the fish (there are very large trout found in the mid to lower reaches of this section).
Access can be found in many areas along the Manistee River. Access to the upper section of Manistee River can be found near M-38 (Mancelona Road) and is best fished with a light fly rod (3-5 weight). Below Mancelona Road you will find access in the town of Deward off of Fayette Road, County Road 612 Bridge, the CCC Bridge area (King Rd), and Sharon Bridge area. There are also plenty of other areas to access the upper river (see map).
Access to the lower river can be found from numerous side roads off of M-55. River Road (parallels the north side of the river) and East River Road are found near the river, and lead to Tippy Dam. North High Bridge Road crosses the river a short distance below Tippy Dam (High Bridge Access) while other roads parallel and lead to the river (see maps).
fallen logs, undercut banks, deep runs, beautiful pools, and sharp bends all creating good holding habitat for trout. In the upper reaches, you will find a lot of overhanging brush and good cover to provide shelter for the trout.
There is a special regulations area for artificial flies only ( M-72 downstream to CCC Bridge).
This is a productive stretch of river that has good access and a lot of goodholding water (good numbers of trophy trout). The special regulations put upon this stretch have helped to preserve this great resource. "Catch and release and the future will remain".
Below Tippy Dam is the area of the Manistee River known for its quality runs of steelhead and salmon. Every year anglers come from around the World to fish for the thousands of steelhead and salmon that enter its lower river (no fish ladder at Tippy Dam). The water is big and in some areas very tough to wade. A Guide and a boat will certainly help to cover the water.
The river below Tippy Dam flows aggressively towards Lake Michigan over a sand and gravel bottom. Fallen logs, deep pools, swift runs, and charming riffles all help to create classic holding water for steelhead, salmon, trout and smallmouth bass. Bear Creek is a feeder to the Manistee that is found on the north side of the river. This creek is also an excellent fishery for steelhead and can be found along River Road near where it enters the Manistee or off of Coates Highway to the north. This feeder stream to the Manistee can produce some great fishing!
The Manistee River is most famous for its steelhead and salmon fishing, but produces some of the best trout fishing on a fly in the united states at times (Hex hatch). Trout fishing is excellent and provides anglers with exciting action on both the surface and subsurface for a wide size variety of trout from little brookies to large shouldered brown and rainbow trout. Hatches are prolific stirring the surface with hungry trout during the spring and summer. Streamer fishing can produce big chases from monster brown trout in the spring, and during high water periods throughout the year. Steelhead and salmon can be caught on Great Lakes fly patterns; egg flies, Hex nymphs, caddis larva, stone fly nymhs, as well as wet flies, spey flies, leeches, and streamers. If you're looking for an excellent Lake Michigan tributary for exciting steelhead and salmon fly fishing or for a great trout fishery to wet a fly, take a look at the Manistee River.
Fall Steelhead fishing on a fly can be awesome below Tippy dam from October through December. Water temps can turn these silver bullets into freight trains, and make some of the larger fish almost unlandable! Fishing with a guide will allow you to cover water and get you over the best fishing the river has to offer.
Although the access and wade fishing is good on this river, the use of a guide will always provide a safe, exciting educational experience, and put you on the best fishing the river has to offer at that time of year.

Sigg Water Bottles
I adore this thing. It keeps tap water cool and crisp, reigns in my expensive and destructive plastic water bottle purchases, and helps me keep track of how much water I drink in a day. Also, the bottle opening is little, so I'm not constantly sloshing water all over myself while I'm on the treadmill. It comes in a kazillion colors and designs, but my favorite is the swirly black and white. Go get one.27 Sep, 2007 in Food and Drink
