GARNAVILLO –The DNR responded to an anonymous report of manure odor Friday, checking ammonia levels in an unnamed tributary of South Cedar Creek near Garnavillo in Clayton County.
Rick Martens, a DNR environmental specialist, found high levels of ammonia in the tributary and traced it back to a 300-head hog finishing building owned by Douglas Reimer of Guttenberg.
He also found a leaking pipe at the hog facility with liquid manure entering an inlet to an underground tile. In addition, he found flattened grass, ponding and some manure solids in a grassy area that Reimer said he had used for emergency land application.
Both the tile line and the grassy area drain to a small intermittent stream, which flows about one mile to South Cedar Creek. There is no estimate of the amount of manure which reached the stream.
Reimer immediately closed the intake to the tile line and repaired the pipe.
Martens found elevated ammonia levels downstream in South Cedar Creek Friday. There was no evidence of a fish kill. By Saturday, field tests showed elevated ammonia levels in the tributary but not in South Cedar Creek. Water samples have been sent for laboratory testing.
The DNR will continue to monitor the situation and take appropriate enforcement action.

Fighting crime...in a future time...
Cops and robbers went high tech in the daily syndicated C.O.P.S. Set in the year 2020 in the corrupt metropolis Empire City, the show pitted the forces of the Central Organization of Police Specialists against "The Big Boss" and his gangland goons.
Led by former FBI man Baldwin P. "Bulletproof" Vess, C.O.P.S. was a team of trained specialists, each with cyborg enhancements suited to their names and talents?Longarm nabbed criminals with his extending limbs, Highway was a former California Highway Patrol officer who zipped along at blinding speeds, Bowzer was the group's canine expert and the master of the cyborg dog Blitz, Mainframe was the computer whiz, and so forth. Other C.O.P.S. officers included Hardtop, Mace, Barricade, Bullseye and Mirage.
Out on patrol, the C.O.P.S. often ran into The Big Boss' gang of cyber-enhanced yahoos, facing the likes of Berserko, Rock Krusher, Ms. Demeanor, Nightshade, Buttons McBoomBoom and Dr. Badvibes. Despite the futuristic setting and mechanical body parts, this motley crew of uglies preferred to dress and talk like Prohibition-Era gangsters, right down to The Big Boss' Edward G. Robinson accent.
Also making life rough for Bulletproof and company was Empire City's corrupt and inefficient bureaucracy. Mayor Davis meant well (probably), but he was often an unwitting pawn in The Big Boss' schemes, usually through his desires to cut costs for political gain.
Like any good 80's cartoon, C.O.P.S. capped off its half-hour of action-fueled mayhem with 30 seconds of neighborly tips. "C.O.P.S. for Kids" featured quick lessons on being a good citizen, staying out of trouble, saying "No" to drugs and so on, all with the blessing and assistance of organizations like DARE, the National Crime Prevention Council and the California Highway Patrol.
C.O.P.S. only lasted one season in syndication, but since it was a daily, 65 episodes were produced before the show's eventual cancellation. These 30-minute thrillers were revived briefly in 1993 when CBS placed Cyber C.O.P.S. (same show, same episodes, new title) on its Saturday morning schedule. Alas, after only six more months of busting crooks, the C.O.P.S. team was once again sent to an early retirement.

Why Felipe Lopez won't be back
Baseball October 20th, 2009
Admittedly I am the internet's biggest Rickie Weeks fan (check out this post that looked so awesome on Opening Day) so perhaps I am a bit biased, but I don't think Felipe Lopez will be back next season and I don't even think there is a chance. Why do I think this? It's simple. This quote from Doug Melvin:
"We view Rickie as our second baseman at this point."
Or in other words, Felipe Lopez won't be back.
Now, make no mistake about it the Brewers WILL offer him arbitration. I think that could be part of the reason they traded for him in the first place. (Last season when the Brewers traded for CC Sabathia they had a plan. Make the playoffs and then replace the farm system they lost through picks from Sabathia and Sheets signing elsewhere. Only one of those two things happened and the system wasn't as deep as it might have been therefore they weren't as free to make a move this season. That's just a theory of mine though.) The fact is he's a Boras client coming off a great season and Boras thinks he can get more than a one year deal in the open market, but for a second let's just say he accepts arbitration. Could he be back? Read the rest of this entry »

WHAT IT IS: Serpent, the signature symbol of Roberto Cavalli, is feminine, sensual and dangerously charming. The composition is built around mango blossom known in Hindu legends as the food of Gods. According to a Brazilian legend, snakes eat mango blossom. This floral-oriental composition opens with sweet mandarin notes and mango blossom. The heart introduces exotic Tiare flower and rich scent of Frangipani blossom, refined by violets and black pepper. The oriental base is built on harmony of Tolu balsam, sandalwood and amber.
KEY NOTES: Mango blossom, sandalwood, amber
INCLUDES: Serpentine Eau De Parfum; Size: 3.4 fl oz
Brand: Roberto Cavalli Fragrances
Described by the New York Times as "the Italian fashion designer with a gypsy soul," Roberto Cavalli has forever transformed the fashion industry through his use of flashy, high-end animal prints, printed lightweight leather, and luxurious sandblasted denim. Launched in 2002, Cavalli's perfume collection captures all the vigor and free-spiritedness of his leopard- and zebra-skin clothing line, with scents ranging from woody and earthy (Man) and spicy (Just Cavalli's I Love Him) to fruity (Serpentine, Roberto Cavalli Eau de Parfum) and floral (Just Cavalli's I Love Her). Ingredients range from sandalwood and peppercorn to mango, violet leaves, and vanilla. Since debuting his first collection in 1970, Cavalli has built an empire that includes Just Cavalli and his flagship label as well as Class Roberto Cavalli (casual clothing), Angels & Devils (kids' clothing), perfume, and several eclectic side projects (a café, a nightclub, even a vodka).

Amazing Dress!
I have a spring engagement party to attend next week and I went scouring the online web for the perfect dress!
4 months ago I had my Baby Boy and have fortunately lost all of my baby weight already EXCEPT my once abtacular tummy has now a bit of a bump so I was certain I wanted to try out the peplum style just to conceal this.
I had about 4 dresses I saw on the website and stumbled upon this dress. I wasn't too keen on it so it didnt make it onto my list to try on. Well, I ended up at the Bebe store yesterday and this dress was hanging in the racks in my size so I decided what the heck, no harm in trying it! I put it on and the small fit me perfectly and the cut and style was everything I wanted! The peplum conceals my little bump too, which was exactly what I wanted. I had about 7 other dresses in the room with me and not one of them could beat this dress and so, I GOT IT!
This dress is perfect for parties and even suitable for work (pair it with a short cardigan).
I am 5'3 and 120 pounds. The XS would have fit me as well but due to breast feeding (bigger breasts), I stuck to my original size. I have a toned body and long legs.

Statement in Tribute to Billy Frank, Jr.
Trout Unlimited was saddened to learn of the unexpected passing of Billy Frank, Jr. Mr. Frank, up until the very end, was a tireless advocate for tribal treaty rights and for Pacific Northwest salmon.
A member of the Nisqually Indian Tribe in south Puget Sound, Mr. Frank was a prominent Native American leader who played a major role in ongoing efforts to recover imperiled salmon and steelhead populations in Puget Sound and was a proponent of collaboration among salmon stakeholders.
"On behalf of Trout Unlimited, I wish to express our condolences to his family, and our deep gratitude to Mr. Frank for his impassioned advocacy for the restoration of salmon and steelhead to their native waters," said Chris Wood, CEO and President of Trout Unlimited. "Mr. Frank will be sorely missed, and the best way to honor his exceptional leadership is to work together to protect and restore salmon and steelhead habitat for the benefit of the people of the Northwest."

I just love this wallet!
It's neat and compact and has space for everything I need to carry in a wallet. I was afraid the amber color would be lighter than I wanted, but it's a shade darker so exceeds my expectations. I've had a couple of Bosca address books, and each one lasted a couple of decades. This was a pricey wallet for me, but it's worth every penny. Beautiful and feels good in the hand.

Love it!
Love the color, amber. For its size, It has sufficient slots for credit cards, and it has a place for money bills. The see through I D window is a nice feature though I must say, I struggled to get my drivers license out. It would be totally great if it had a removable I D window. With all that said, under no circumstances, am I returning it. I love it!

The Perfect Wallet
I never post reviews but felt compelled to because of how much I love this wallet. I was tired of my large checkbook wallet and wanted something more compact. I looked online for a long time before stumbling on this one. This holds everything I need and is of wonderful quality. I love the amber color and it is the perfect size. This is my first Bosca purchase and I am already loyal to the brand. I will be using this beautiful wallet for many years to come.

My last Bosca wallet was a French purse that I used daily for 19 years. This wallet is much more compact, the leather is lovely, and I will continue to buy Bosca.

Indians can't bowl - Where has the rumour come from as I myself and many indian friends arwe competent fast bowlers ?
With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
yeah but since when has reason played any part in the nsw selection process. this is a bread and butter selection for them! everyone from 7 down bowls!
def seems feasible. particularly with sok od's game still a question mark. doran would have made more sense tho.
that said they may have had enough of maddinson up top (ha! unlucky)
Last edited by Spikey; 16-11-2012 at 05:28 AM.
well looking at the glass half full, that side bats down to 9. zampa made the side on runs, as much as wickets. scored more runs then maddison this season, but that isn't hard.

I have played Zampa a number of times and whilst before this season I could see your points I believe this season he has actually really earned a shot at playing.
He has taken at least 1 if not 2 Second XI five wicket hauls this season and then taken six wickets and scored 120 runs in the last Futures Game.
He has never been a big grade cricket dominator which is something I am wary of he does OK averaging 26 or 27 with the ball but never really scores runs in grade cricket.
His slider is getting a lot of blokes out at the moment.
He bats higher in Second XI than grade cricket sometimes.
The main reason why he scores more runs in 2nd XI is that he gets a chance, because the NSW selectors pick 6-7 bowlers in every XI. So all the bowlers bat 2 spots higher then grade cricket, where teams pick proper XIs. But Zampa can bat.
I would think batting at 7 or 8 is more than enough opportunity to score runs if you are good enough.
The fact is he has never scored a first grade 50 in four seasons in Sydney. And his highest score last season was 25.
Knew WA were ****ed when Mitch Marsh pulled his hamstring!
Just means more lap dances
oh my god they haven't played Zampa. could this be the start of a new selection era?
probably not. abbott coming in at 3 and smashing them anyway so we probs should have played Zampa anyway. also haddin batted 44 balls at north sydney and didn't hit a six. dead set....
White bowling at this ground - uh oh

"Stacey,McHenry, IL"

Comments: I was very pleased with the keepsake boxes we purchased. They were each given to three children who recently lost their father. The boxes allowed them to collect some memories, photos, keepsakes of their dads to put in their boxes and look back on fondly through the years. They were all very touched and loved the idea. And I was very happy with the look and quality. Thank you

Material: 100% merino wool shell
Brand: Icebreaker
Origin: Imported
If there's one thing New Zealand has a lot of, it's merino sheep. Luckily for you outdoorsy types, the Wellington-based clothing label Icebreaker discovered the perfect use for all that wool: turn it into exceptional base-layer clothing and gear for hiking, skiing, and running. Known for its warmth and breathability, Merino wool doesn't itch or hold odor — major advantages when you're hiking to the South Pole, or simply too lazy to change your shirt for four days. Since its founding by Jeremy Moon in the mid-1990s, Icebreaker has expanded its collection of men's, women's, and kids' clothing to include everything from underwear and socks to T-shirts, fleece jackets, and leggings. As an added bonus, customers can click on a bar code (or "baa code," in official Icebreaker parlance), located on the company website, to learn more about each purchase — from the sheep that produced the wool to the farms where they live.

Chrysler 300M Engine Problems
hello i have a 2001 300m and i have a few problems with it ok first for the last couple of months when ever i am driving when ever i press on the gas there is this loud rattling noise that sounds like its coming from under the hood i have been to a garage with it and they seem to think it's my converter you can put the car in reverse and hold on the brake and give it some gas and you can here the noise clear it sound's like it comeing from the passanger side right next to the motor has this happened to anyone else or does anyone know what this might be? p.s when i here the noise it fells like my car is loseing power while the rattling is going on..
and my next problem just started my car ran out of gas and my engine light came on i went to auto zone and they ran a test and it said there was a misfire on four of my sparkplugs so i changed all 6 spark plugs and the little ruber boots that sit on top of my spark plugs my engine light has gone off but now when i go to accelerate the car fells like it wants to kind of be slugish and it jerks back for a second like its not getting gas to the fuel tank do you think it needs to be replaced or has anyone had this problem

dwightad Posts: 2I have a 2003 300m with 72000 miles. When I start up the car I hear a herendous rattling noise and there after a hard knocking noise/ticking noise. It gets louder as I press on the gas pedal. One mechanic told me it was my camshaft or my extension rod and that I needed to replace my engine. Is this a common problem? The knocking noise appears to be coming from top of the engine not below. Can any one help me with this one?
beckys Posts: 1we have a 99 300m and think we are hearing the same noise...2 mechanices outside of the chrysler dealership said it sounded likes rods...we have been hearing this sound for 12 months! today we went to get the car from the transmission shop and they said it sounds like it is in the front of the engine and heard it before on a 300 and it ended up being the timing belt/brackets...I don't know alot about that area but when he lets me know I will respond back again...I am afraid it is costly...the whole front end has to come off!
dwightad Posts: 2Thanks for the info. I took it again to another mechanic and he also stated that it might be rods or the crank shaft. The timing belt/brackets suggestion is a new one for me. Yes, it is very costly. I recently took out an extended warranty on this vehicle so my deductible is only $100.00... I will keep you informed.
lovea300m Posts: 3My car is slugish or it jerks whatever you want to call it. When you take off and the needle gets up between the 2 & 3 RPMs it starts jerking back and forth. Or do you call it slugish. I have taken it to a Dealership and had a diagnostic test. They arent sure what it is. It could be 3 different things. Timing Belt, Fuel Pump, or possibly drive plate. So much for a diagnostic test. What a waste. I would really like to know. I love this car. It only has 73,000 miles on it. Now the check engine light is on of course until we fix the problem. If anyone out there knows what it is or they have had some experience with the same thing please let me know. Thanks
shalley Posts: 1just had the 3.5 engine in my 2003 300m rebuilt at the dealer overlap bearing on the camshaft i now get 14 m per gal and the motor vibrates when ideling in gear at a stop a lot of weird sounds under the hood that i work at the plant that built this garbage so much for buy what you build by the way this car only has 81000 kilometers on it
ihelget Posts: 4My car will all of a sudden stall. it usually happens when i am just about stopped. i can put in neutral and start it back up but it is getting annoying. also when i am driving at highway speeds it will some times feel like it chugs. i have done a fuel system cleaner and that didnt see to help at all. is there any explanation for these things?
bswatson Posts: 2try using your key code to see if there is a fault code.put your key in the ignition turn on to run but dont start.do three times on,off,on,off,on.you should see a code where your trip meter is.i have a 2002 300m and it did same thing.i got a p0206 fault,which is an injector 6 circuit fault.runs like a 300m now.

joeymoos Posts: 1I have a 2001 300M and never had any problems with it until recently. A few weeks ago it wouldn't start and the battery was draining. The mechanic checked alternator and battery and that wasn't the problem. He pulled fuses #7 and 19 and there was no drain and the car would start for a few days. He replaced the interior light switch and ignition switch as others suggested. The car would be okay for about 4 or 5 days and then againwon't start. Sometimes also the interior lights go off after 2-3 seconds while other times there are on the for 20-30 seconds and the manual describes them to operate.
It was working fine for a few days and then this morning my husband went to start it and it wouldn't start. He jumped it and let it run for a while. When I got in it this morning it barely started and all the cd lights were blinking for about 30 seconds. Also I haven't had a radio in about a year. I've read I got the bad radio for that year since it says RBB under the hour and minutes. Do you think the radio could have a short in it that's causing the battery drain?
Has anyone ever had a problem like this and know what it is? Our mechanic talked to a friend of his at a Chrysler dealer and even he has no idea what the problem is and suggested we bring it to a dealer.
The car is mint and only has 40,000 miles on it. I'd hate to get rid of it but I also don't want to keep putting money into it.
I'd appreciate any help of suggestions. Thanks!

papasam1 Posts: 84I have just replaced the cam in my 1999 300M after it ran hot. The cam was in two pieces and the car ran fine with a miss on one cylinder. The new cam from chrysler was just under $1000.00 so I am told. I got a used head for the cam and now then used the new found head and cam. Now the lifters are very loud, I have been driving it for two days now with no better results. Will driving the noise go away.
110183 Posts: 1I need serious help.. i dont know what is wrong with my car. ok well i drove my car to my college the first time i drove it on a fourteen hour trip and when i got here it started to act weird. i was driving around town then when i went to park my car it would not go into park it wouldnt go past reverse. then finally i got in park then i drove it around again thinking it was fine when i went to park back at school it would not go it park no matter how hard i tried. then my shifter got really loose and the shifter would move to drive nuetral park reverse, but the car still remained in reverse so i had to shut it of because something was broke so now my car is stuck in reverse and i dont know if anyone possibly knows what im talking about or the problem with my car
ceverette Posts: 1I have a 2000 300m , 180,000 miles, while my wife was driving it cut off. Now it will not start. I was told the timing belt broke, and that I needed another engine..because the valves were probably bent.. Is it better to change the belt and heads or change the entire engine... Which would be cheaper!!!
meckeish Posts: 2My chrysler 300m 1999 starts jerking when the car is at speeds of 60-80mph. The check engine light flashes, of course the car is jerking/knocking. I let of the gas so the jerking can stop. it does but i want to get to the bottom of the problem and fix it. What could be the problem?

morgan71 Posts: 25Ok, now that i got the starting stalling issue fixed, my other issue is my engine recently started making a tapping sound. It starts after its been driven when the engine is warm. I hear it when I come to a stop sign and a stop light but it goes away when I pull off. It even goes away when the car is put in park. But I also noticed it becomes a little more pronounced if I have the car in park and or when I slightly turn the steering wheel to the left or right. It sounds like its coming from the left driver side but its hard to tell since im always driving.
Any body have this same problem and what did you do to get it fixed? Any help would be appreciated. -
moparmadness3 Posts: 1WELL MY QUESTION TO YOU IS DO YOU ALWAYS BELIEVE WHAT SOMEONE TELLS YOU???? THERE IS A WAY TO TELL IF YOUR GONNA NEED A NEW ENGINE, THE PROBLEM IS IS THAT IT WILL COST YOU SOME FUNDS TO RE-TEST AND SEE IF INDEED THE VALVES ARE BENT, #1 A NEW BELT NEEDS TO BE PUT ON, #2 THEN A GOOD COMPLETE COMPRESSION TEST NEEDS TO BE DONE AND IT WILL DEFINATELY TELL YOU EITHER WAY, I JUST HAD ONE DONE BY A SHADE TREEE MECHANIC HE WAS LUCKY, IT DIDNT BEND ANYTHING, IF YOURS HAPPENS TO BE A FLUKE THEN THE COST OF PULLING THE HEAD AND LOOKING AT THE DAMAGE CAN BE QUITE EXPENSIVE IF YOU ARE NOT MECHANICALLY INCLINED, BUT IF YOU HAPPEN TO KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS GOOD COMMON SENSE AND LIKES A GOOD CHALLENGE THEN DONT BE AFRAID TO TAKE THE CHANCE, I MEAN 250.00 VS 1000 AND UP IS A PRETTY STEEP, AND THE LOWER MILAGE YOU FIND, BE PREPARED TO GET BENT OVER, THEN YOU HAVE THE LABOR TO R/R AND YOUR PROBABLE LOOKING SOMEWHERE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF 2200-2700.00 THEN ASK YOU SELF "IS IT WORTH IT"

Healthy Choice says, "Add some zest to lunchtime with this mouthwatering meal that's a real treat for your taste buds. Healthy Choice Pineapple Chicken features fried chicken breast, red peppers, and the deliciously unexpected zing of pineapple tossed in a sweet glaze over a soft bed of whole-grain rice, this delectable dish is sure to please." Well, that's just what I wanted to do - add some zest to my lunchtime with a mouthwatering meal!
This meal was just okay for me - bordering on I'll probably not buy this again. I think my main issue was the the flavors didn't seem consistent, and they didn't go well together. The breaded chicken seemed to take hold of the sweetness of the sauce like a fish takes to water and some pieces would almost be too sweet, while others were just right. Also, to be very literal, there are 4 pieces of chicken pictured on the box, and there were only 3 in my meal.
The pineapple seemed a little out of place with it's slightly sour taste, and it didn't really seem to go well with the chicken. Then the rice with the sauce only would sometimes be more sour than sweet. The carrots were nice and firm, while the bell peppers were a bit limp, but still had flavor - and they were actually the highlights of this dish for me ... wait, didn't I say something similar about Healthy Choice Sweet and Sour Chicken? Different vegetables, similar batter fried chicken and the end result - neither is anything special.
Each Healthy Choice Pineapple Chicken meal provides 380 calories, 11% & 8% of the daily value for total fat and saturated fat, 9% of the DV for sodium, 20% of the DV for fiber, 30 grams of sugars and 9 grams of protein.
Way too much sugar for me - and this is not even a desert, which is where I prefer to get my sugar highs from. Healthy Choice - you have some meals that I really enjoy, like Healthy Choice Sweet Asian Pot Stickers and Healthy Choice Mediterranean Pasta, but Healthy Choice Pineapple Chicken is not one of them ... although I did get it for a very low price of $1.88, and if I had only $2.00 to spend on a meal, I guess I wouldn't feel bad about buying this.

Conference Center Connects with QSC Q-Sys Integrated System Platform, Part 1
Jan 9, 2013 12:38 PM, With Bennett Liles
You've got the core and the amps; it seems pretty close together. What's the cable run like between those?
The core itself connects to its I/O frames. We have 15 of those. That connection is digital, so where the I/O frames are located, the longest analog run we have to an amplifier is 10ft., everything is digital to that point, so the inputs from the microphones and the outputs to amplifiers happen remotely to the core itself. [Timestamp: 6:19]
OK, so your long cable runs are then from the amps to the speakers?
The real nightmare cable runs. We've got almost 200ft. of five wire. Now we're using a really, really big cable about the size of your cable antenna cable and five of those, but even at that, trying to run a high-definition analog signal that far is a nightmare and its going through a switch first. In every room there is an upscaler for the video, which upscales the video to HD and analog and then sends it through out to the switchers, which then send it back to the same room. So if you're watching a video in the farthest conference room, you have the signals of both audio and video traveling 150ft. to 200ft. one way and 150ft. to 200ft. back. [Timestamp: 7:05]
OK so as far as the users are concerned, when they're in the conference rooms out there, what do they see as far as what they've got for AV facilities in the rooms?
Well, every room has a minimum of this upscaler and a mono audio line, a line level inputs, VGA computer inputs. For our outputs, we've got five wire RGBHV video, bi-directional Cat-6 analog phone, fiber interconnects between the two data rooms with 24GB throughput. We had to split up our system into two systems, so there are two data rooms and two different video switches. The thing about the Q-Sys is it can handle all of this without all of this machination. You just stick the core in there and you run Cat-6 to your I/O frame; the I/O frame has GP I/O outputs. It's analog and digital outputs, and you configure that frame with four cards; each card having basically two channels or four channels and two amplifiers. So all of your input and output happens there locally. Basically what it becomes is to the user is it's a sealed system. He sees none of this. [Timestamp: 8:16]
I read that you've got some Earthworks microphones in the ballrooms for monitoring the acoustical situation in there.
Yeah, one of the other things that Q-Sys can do, which not many other systems have ever been able to do, is it has the ability to analyze an incoming signal, compare it to its outgoing signal, and make adjustments. So they wrote a special program for us to do EQ as well, so we have 16 listening microphones throughout the building and if the promoter wants it to be automatic, we can EQ the room empty, set the volume levels with the room empty, and then as people come in with coats and mass and noise [and] the sound floor goes up [and] the absorption goes up, the EQ balances itself and so does the volume level. [Timestamp: 9:00]
That's great to be able to adapt it that well, sort of on the fly because they have so many different things going in there you can never be sure what sort of acoustic environment you're going to be dealing with.
Right or technical requirements, I mean we had in the first week we had a doctor's convention and they had to be able to not only communicate while they were there, [but also] a couple of them performed robotic surgery from the conference using our lines and equipment. [Timestamp: 9:27]
It's just amazing.
I also saw that the system automatically combines the rooms when the air walls are opened. Do you have sensors triggering that or is that part of a manual control sequence?
We have an infrared sensor and it tells the lighting system and the audio system when the combining walls are open or closed. When they're open all inputs in the room become that room's inputs. The speakers they're all matched. The videos all matched and then when the room closes they divide and the systems divide. [Timestamp: 10:01]
That's really something. I'd really like to see how that works. That's almost like it's got a mind of its own.
Between that and the ability to control it completely remotely it makes it absolutely hands off for the staff and one of the big things about hospitality staff is they may know how to count chairs, but they don't really know much about audio/video and so most of the time you have to hire another company to come in and run the show. Well, you don't have to with this trade and conference center. It's smart enough that it will do it by itself. [Timestamp: 10:33]
Well, it's a fantastic system and in part two we're going to get more into that. Thanks for being here Rick and for taking time to explain how the whole system works at the Sheraton Fairplex Conference Center. In part two we'll get more into the Core 4000 and how you use the amps and integrate those with the emergency system in the facility and some other things but thanks for being here for this one.
Well, thank you very much for your time. I enjoyed it.

There isn't a SWM-4, but I'd guess you have the SWiM-LNB [which is the same as the SWM8, but included in the LNB] and the 29 volts works fine with it. "In fact" with long coax runs, it's known to work better than the 21 volt.One thing i noticed. the DIRECTV SWM-PI 29V works for SWM-8 and SWM-16. I have the SWM-4. Will the DIRECTV SWM-PI 29V still work on the SWM-4 SWITCH?
I've run my SWiMLNB with a 29 volt for years without problems.

The year was 2006, we were still an "I" and it was the summer holidays, so spare time was in abundance.
Browsing Karen Traviss' blog on starwars.com, I found a mention of
Penny Arcade
, as she had, four years previously, been quite pleased with a strip featuring the Republic Commando game ('cos she does the novels, see). However, she didn't actually link to the relevant bit of the archives, so I went on a massive trawl.
After that, I completely forgot all about web comics for a while.
Later, whisperings of a second Alien vs. Predator movie were circulating, and I was checking their veracity. In doing so, I followed a link to
Alien Loves Predator
, and joined their forums (originally under the name Cortle Steeze,
but this has now been changed to reflect our older and more widespread web presence), where I found the "what other webcomics do you read?" thread.
A link there took me to
, and when one of Chris' rants implored "vote!" I did. In the Buzzcomix top ten, there was a rather shiny and well-drawn banner linking to Earthsong. It was clicked. You can guess the rest.
Those who do either pay attention to, care about, or remember any of what we write, may recognise this as my name. This is no coincidence. When we joined the Wotch forums in December of '06, the discrepancy between the account name and the Freewebs account from which images were drawn was joke-explained away with "this is Cortle, my technical advisor," instead of just saying "no, I'm not stealing these images." It should have been left there, but the joke was extended to allow mock arguments to be staged within posts. What he/I/we didn't expect was that I would take on a reality of my own.

I was in my apartment in fukuoka when I found this comic. It was like 3AM or so and I didn't have anything on for the next day so I was just checking out new comics and stumbled across this gem.

It was my... junior? ... Senior? Year of high school, and I was reading a comic who's name I can't remember, which linked to MegaTokyo, which linked to Inverloch, which linked here. At that point, it was the original and the comic was when Willow was first starting to feel the stirrings of rebellion. Before her journal, I think. Maybe. Not sure. It's been so long.
Then, there's was this twitter-thingy on the home page, and I joined the chat room, and when the chatroom bit the dust I joined the forum and was briefly a mod. Briefly, 'cuz I went to a college with a proxy server and Earthsong was blocked.
Anyhoo, I finish college in December, and came back for the next month because... I am bored.

I can't remember my exact path to Earthsong, but I suspect it involved TWC. I lurked for a while until I could figure out how to say something like "I love the webcomic, the goddess Earthsong is beautiful" in Middle Egyptian just so I could make a splash when entering the forum the first time. Then I hung around making goofy comments until Lady anointed me as a moderator. The rest is history.

Once upon a time, I was bored with internet access...so I started looking at webcomics, and I found Earthsong through TWC. I was always struck by how
ES looked.

I just recently started reading Earthsong. Probably a month or two ago, following a link from Catena (http://www.catenamanor.com). Fell in love with the art and thought the story was interesting. When I was (mostly) caught up I started thinking I'd like to chat with other fans.

The Hub Plot
The Hub Plot, MASG's food production garden group, meets each Monday from 9am to garden and to exchange produce, recipes and seedlings. We always have a cuppa at 11am.
We also conduct garden/food related workshops and go on great field trips. Feel free to drop in and join in, or for further information:
- email Peter
- phone Heather on 0409 327791
The Local Food Production working group was formed because MASG members were concerned by the large carbon footprint generated by our current food growing, processing, transporting and storage systems.
Go to the Hub Plot Blog, to read a little more about what we do.
One of our partners is Growing Abundance, a wonderful, innovative group that does great things with food.
We owe it to future generations to reduce the climate-altering greenhouse gases we are responsible for, and we must all play a part to reduce our carbon footprint.
We have become used to the year-round availability of food, regardless of where and how it is produced, how it is processed and stored and how it is transported. Every stage is dependent on non-renewable fossil fuels.
Many of us have lost our appreciation of the "seasonality" of food. Food harvested at its peak of ripeness, and eaten immediately, has a much 'better flavour' … just compare the tomatoes you buy in winter to home-grown tomatoes freshly harvested in summer.
The industrialised food production cycle is:
- inefficient
- wasteful
- energy intensive
In many cases, the energy needed produce food is greater than the nutritional energy of the food itself.
By growing our own food we control what goes into it. Inorganic fertilisers and chemical pesticides and herbicides (all non-renewable resource based) are used in large-scale, monocultural food production.
Growing our own food also reduces worker exploitation in poor countries.
Local food production
• Reduces CO2 emissions by minimising the distance food is transported
• Reduces the energy needed for the processing, packaging and storing food
• Reduces water used in food production
By example we want to encourage people to be locally productive.
We are a focal point
• To demonstrate different ways of growing food with available resources
• To demonstrate the latest ideas in dealing with grey water, collecting rain water and other water technology
• To run workshops on topics of interest, such as composting, watering systems and seed propagation
• To demonstrate ways of preserving surplus production
The site: The Hub, 233 Barker St Castlemaine
We started work on the site in August 2007. We now have two, 9000l rainwater tanks, which are filled from the roof of the Baptist Church and hall next door … some say our garden grows because we are using holy water!
A glass hothouse with concrete blocks and bricks inside it for thermal mass extends the growing season.
We have established a fruit forest using different rootstock varieties and demonstrating methods of pruning suitable for a small garden such as espaliering and cordon training.
Members sponsored many of the fruit trees and the Diggers Club donated the six pear trees.
We have been fortunate to have had valuable help from a Green Corp team, and of course, member volunteers.
The last stage of the project on this site will be to develop a shady social space with a wood fired BBQ and pizza oven.
Further plans
• To have regular seed and seedling exchanges
• To establish a community allotment garden on a site at the edge of town for those who have no suitable land or who like a social component to their food production.
• To establish a demonstration integrated permaculture system on another local site.
• To run classes on "how to deal with surplus" – techniques for preserving, making jams and chutneys, preparing food for freezing etc.
• To hold regular fund raising "100 kilometre" dinners where all seasonal produce is sourced from a 100 kilometre radius (and drink of course too!)
What can I do?
• Join MASG
• Become a garden volunteer
• Resolve to put your green thumbs to work.
You will be surprised how rewarding it can be – good for your physical, nutritional and mental health, and good for the health of our planet … a win-win-win-win!

There I was, just lucky to be along for the ride, thinking I might get to live vicariously through some choir members who would be up above the stage. Suddenly, all of us were up there together. I was seated in the gap on the bleachers between our choir, PS22 Elementary School Choir and the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir.
I don't ever expect an event of this magnitude to occur again for me, and I mean that in the sense of how many people, not just famous, but leaders of the free world, were right smack in front of us, 50 feet away. It seemed like maybe it was some elaborate IMAX screen.
The Carters, the Clintons, the Obamas, Supreme Court justices, John Kerry, John McCain, the list goes on. Both of our U.S. senators for Tennessee were there. Sen. Lamar Alexander of course had a role to play in the program, so he got an extra burst of applause from our group. These people were introduced as they entered the area and took seats arrayed behind the podium.
John Mayer and Katy Perry (my daughter tells me they are important) popped up to the bleachers to say hello to the PS22 Choir. Beyoncé, Kelly Clarkson and James Taylor were other musical guests on the program.
The anticipation among the choir, leading up to this performance, was undeniable.
"I'm not nervous, just excited," said Jared Petty, sophomore youth ministry major from St. Louis. Jared is a tenor and stood in the center of the back row. "I'm like a little kid in a candy shop."
I ran into Elizabeth Sheeks the other day before sound check. She is a freshman from Cleveland who I missed in my first journal list of Cleveland kids. She graduated from Cleveland High last year and is now majoring in PR. Elizabeth sang alto in the middle of the second row.
"I am just really excited," Liz said. "I don't feel like it's going to hit me though for real until we get up there and see all those people."
And that's what happened. It was a more unbelievable moment than I had expected. And I got to be alongside them as they experienced it. I'm no musical expert, but it was a success in my estimation. By that I mean they nailed it. It was gorgeous.
The choir's sound and spirit captured attention and favor from new places (CSPAN, ABC News, for instance). But much of this was feedback we were scooping up on phones and computers in the bus from email, text, Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. After all, as soon as Beyoncé sang "…home of the brave" at the end of our nation's anthem, everybody started filing out, and we headed out to beat the parade street closings and get back home.
So now we're heading back in the 5-bus caravan while I'm writing this. People are tired. They all got up early. But the easy smiles, joyful camaraderie and sporadic napping on the bus speak of a job well done and the relief of being homeward bound.
I asked some of the folks in Yellow Bus Three what they took away. Rachelle Allen of Cincinnati said she felt a pride in being an American taking part in such history made today.
Jared Petty said, "There was a feeling of unity today, and it made me proud to be an American."
Zachary Majors, a senior from Dalton, Ga., took away "the fact that we got to minister to 600,000 people at one time, with hopeful words about our faith in God."
This sentiment kept repeating itself, one of faith and of patriotism.
Junior accounting major Ryan Glass, from St. Louis, said, "We always talk about being something that's bigger than ourselves, and seeing something like this is even bigger than I could imagine … it was incredible."
Austin Barnwell, a first-year graduate student in marriage and family therapy, is from Asheville, N.C. He called it "such an honor in the first place, to be a part of the inauguration and to share the message of Christ through music to a group of people we wouldn't normally get to be around."
Regardless of what the students carried away, it was infused with an awestruck wonder over just how momentous it all feels.
Kassandra Beaudoin, a senior music education major from Maine said it like this: "I don't think we know the full impact that we've had today."
And I agree. It feels too fast to have a pat answer as to what it all means. It's still working its way out. I hope the ripples from this event will continue to be felt for a long time.
One thing is certain, it has been great hearing all of the feedback from alumni and friends around the country who caught a bit of the singing today or otherwise heard the news and are expressing how great it was.
Before the big day, I had asked Sheeks if she had anything to say to the folks back home.
"We're here to make you proud," she said.
On behalf of Cleveland, Lee, families and friends of choir members, I can easily say to all the members of the Lee University Festival Choir, you have. We are proud as can be. Thank you so much for representing us so well today.
