Home invasions are on the rise in Oklahoma city for the last five years. A good number of them are the classic hit job, for the most part gang related. As for the robbery scenarios, people are consistently being encouraged to arm themselves, to defend their families. I Oklahoma city we have the "make my day" , simply put, if someone breaks into your home you can shoot. I've seen teens gone from bad to worst, in most cases parents had to work to much or were absent, the glorified gang culture took place with the customary drug dealing, which leads to violence. Once a kid crosses that line, is close to impossible to bring him/her back. A sobering thought. IMO, charging the surviving perpetrator with murder of the other perp is a bit of a stretch. I can see the charge of robbery stand as for the murder charge, that I've got to see.
Texas and Oklahoma laws are very similar. In Texas, you and your buddies rob a bank, the guard inside kills all your friends and you are the getaway driver. You get the needle for Capital Murder. I suppose OK is similar.
In life, strive to take the high road....It offers a better field of fire. "Robo is right" Fuzzball

I love how they kept calling the person who shot the bastard the victim. I completely agree but many news writers would have called the dead kid a victim instead. 15 year old dead is tragic in any case but I'm glad the lady had the nerves to pull the trigger. I really hope the other two punks get sent away for life so they can't endanger more women and children. Sickening what the youth thinks is ok nowadays. I just hope my wife would have the same ability if that happened in our house while I was away.

Mesquite Trip Report
Touchstone Blogger, James Lucas checks in to recount about his recent trip to Mesquite Nevada.
Located between Las Vegas and Zion, Mesquite offers perfect limestone climbing between the two sandstone meccas. For the months of February and March, I traveled in the area, sampling many of the best crags and bouncing between the long sandstone route of Las Vegas and the splitter cracks of Zion.
The desert surrounding Mesquite contains a few different climbing areas. The VRG resides a few miles east of the town. The Cathedral and Wailing Wall sit twenty minutes north east from town as do the Gorilla Cliffs and Black and Tan Wall. Each area offers a vastly different experience.
Dan Mirsky works on Route of All Evil at the VRG
The Virgin River Gorge provides roadside cragging on some of the best limestone in the United States. The VRG holds a high concentration of difficult sport climbs from 5.12 to 5.14 and was one of the primary haunts of Touchstone Stock Boy Scott Frye. The crimpy, technical nature of the climbing combined with the bold style makes the area difficult. Perhaps more bothersome at the crag is the highway. Sitting above a four lane highway with semi-trucks barreling down, hearing your climbing partner yell above the noise proves to be one of the cruxes of the climbing experience. Despite the noise, I managed to eek out the two 5.11 warm-ups at the crag and then injured myself by falling out of a heel-toe cam. Whoops! I spent a fair bit of time punting on the classics before realizing that the VRG was a great place to project difficult climbs but not the best place to have a fun and leisurely day of rock climbing.
Mary-Kate Meyerhoffer cruises up Pocket Line at the Wailing Wall
The Cathedral and Wailing Wall provide a significantly better setting. While the rock quality pales in comparison to the VRG, the areas host a variety of sport climbs from 5.10 to 5.14. I spent the majority of my time climbing on the more technical Wailing Wall as apposed to the steep cave of the Cathedral. The limestone edges strengthened my fingers. Getting to the crag is a bit of an ordeal as it involves driving from Mesquite to Beaver Dam then continuing on a small highway to ten miles of dirt road and an arduous forty minute hike to the crag. I spent the majority of my time climbing at this area with the goal of climbing all the 5.12 and under routes at the Wailing Wall. I accomplished my goal but not without breaking a few holds, lowering off slung limestone horns and doing enough on route gardening to make Martha Stewart impressed.
Matt Pincus cuts loose at the Black & Tan Wall
Beyond the VRG and the Cathedral area, the climbing around Mesquite has a number of smaller often overlooked crags. The Black and Tan wall offers VRG quality limestone in a significantly more boulder style. The routes required ballistic power. As do the short route of the Gorilla Cliffs. Just outside of town is an area known as Lime Kiln Road. The Grail, which is a large limestone diamond, sits a few minutes outside of town and has a number of longer, slabby sport pitches. Exploring each of these areas provided significant adventure. I found little to no information on the routes at the Grail Wall and did a fair bit of vision questing, hoping that the routes I climbed on would not prove to be over my abilities.
One of the best camping spots ever is located on the BLM land outside of Beaver Dam
While the limestone is awesome around Mesquite, the town leaves something to be desired. The town sits on the time change of Nevada and Utah. One moment the clock reads nine am and the next moment it says 8. The constant time change coupled with the casinos gives the town an odd, broken feel. Mesquite offers amenities in terms of a large Walmart, a decent grocery store and a number of bad Mexican restaurants. The public library provides the only free Wi-Fi and the aquatic center in town sells $5 showers.
Overall, the climbing around Mesquite is some of the best limestone in the states. The variety as well as the density of a number of the crags makes it an awesome fall through spring destination.

The Haxan Cloak: U.K. Producer Channels Demons, Curdles Blood
"Ever since I was a child, I've always warmed to the darker-natured things in life."
Who: Hailing from Wakefield, England, Bobby Krlic is the Haxan Cloak, a producer of dark ambient music as blackened and viscous as a scorched crème brulee. He takes his alias from the 1922 silent film Häxan, a hallucinatory exploration of witchcraft and psychosis, and his death-rattle strings and amorphous drones (with titles like "Raven's Lament" and "Burning Torches of Despair") leave little doubt as to his sepulchral inclinations. "Ever since I was a child, I've always warmed to the darker-natured things in life," Krlic admits. "My brother is eight years older than me, and when I was a kid, he'd bring home Napalm Death records, but also Snoop Dogg and Ice Cube, and a lot of the imagery and lyrical content in those records is very dark. My mom would always say, 'Don't let Bobby listen to it, he's too young.' So me and my brother would have these listening sessions where my mom didn't know. The whole thing was very exciting, because it was forbidden fruit."
Metal Circus: Krlic spent three years recording his self-titled debut album, which was released in 2011 on the Aurora Borealis label. That record wove scraped percussion, strings, and gravelly digital processing into a shifting electro-acoustic soundscape that recalled Iannis Xenakis' spectral fantasia more than any of his metal-minded labelmates. The new Haxan Cloak album, Excavation, out April 30 on the doomy Tri Angle label, is a seething mass of timbral head-fuck, like the THX "Deep Note" layered exponentially and turned up to 11. Much of the raw material was sourced from acoustic instruments in the studios of the classical Britten-Pears Foundation. "They've got loads of orchestral drums and tympani and gongs," says Krlic, "so I was just like a kid in a sweet shop for a few days. With the last record, it was very much primal instruments, all acoustic, quite bound to the earth. With this one, I wanted to deconstruct those elements and make it more ethereal. Get field recordings and just crush them — really get the magnifying glass in and break them down and go really textural, like Impressionist painting."
Don't Tri Angle This At Home: Early on, Krlic studied classical guitar, played in punk and metal bands, and messed around with turntables and Reason trying to reverse-engineer rap and dance music. It was while studying sound art at university that he hit upon the visceral frequencies that make his work so throat-grabbingly compelling. "I started getting speaker cones and taking them apart," he explains, "and I would place different materials on top, like water or jelly or plastic or metal, and I would see the effects that different frequencies have on those materials. It sounds pretty naïve, but I had never thought about the physical properties of sound." In his live shows, throbbing tones seem to emanate from inside listeners' heads, and they expand until the walls and ceiling tremble — a trick he manages by exploiting the resonant frequencies of the rooms he plays. "There's a descending high-pitched frequency and a descending low-pitched frequency at the end of the set," he explains of his technique. "I'll be listening intently as I'm going down the tones and finding where it really pops out, and then I'll leave it on that and kind of modulate around it for a bit, just trying to spin people out as much as I can."
Aural Rehabilitation: When he's not spinning out his listeners, he helps a different crowd find its way through his work as a music tutor at a youth offenders' prison. "Like any kind of teenage kids, whether you're in prison or you're in school, everybody's self-conscious and scared of making a fool out of yourself," he says. "We'll do a lot of team-building exercises and games to get their confidence up. Sometimes it doesn't work in your favor if you tell them they're doing well. It's uncool to be doing good, so you just leave them to it, and slyly give them confidence in other ways. There have been a couple of projects where we've encountered good rappers, and I've gone home that night and made some instrumentals, and the next day I'm like, 'Quick, have you got 10 minutes to spit over this?'"

Twin Kitchen Hutches #72
by bricofleur
Sunday, April 4, 2010
To make the rabbets on which the glasses of the upper doors will rest on, I'll be using this rabbeting bit. The bearing will follow the lower shoulder of the groove while the cutters will cut the upper shoulder to form the rabbets. Standard bits...

Saturday, September 5, 2009
To mill the profile on the edges of the top shelves, I installed a 3/8'' radius round over bit in the router table. The bearing was not used, only the fence guided the workpieces. After making the usual tests, here are the completed edges...

Monday, September 14, 2009
This is the final step, installing decorative cove moldings under the top shelves. A thin bead of glue is enough and will prevent glue squeeze out. I drive few pin nails to hold the moldings while the glue set. Finally, here are the two completed hutches...

Thursday, October 8, 2009
Here I am starting the fabrication of the upper parts of the kitchen hutches. I cut the uprights to their approximate length at the radial arm saw. It would be hazardous to cut such long pieces (8') at the tablesaw. The radial arm saw is the ideal...

Sunday, October 11, 2009
The four uprights and the four fixed shelves are ready, except for the width of the shelves. I must wait until the back rabbets are done to take the exact measurement. I will make the dadoes in the uprights of both hutches in pair, in one operation, so...

Thursday, October 22, 2009
No mill the holes for the adjustable shelves of the uprights I chuck up a 1/4'' spiral bit because of its plunge feature and a 5/8'' guide bushing. Note that my jig has been designed to use such 5/8'' guide bushing...

Friday, November 6, 2009
The back panels being cut in width and the beads being machined, the next step is cutting them to length. Because of the size of these panels, my shopmade panel cutter is the best jig to use at the tablesaw. I start by squaring one end. Note how well...
Twin Kitchen Hutches #38

Saturday, November 14, 2009
I am ready to rip the stiles for the two face frames. Since my boards are long, I'm using a featherboard for uniformity as well as safety. The outfeed table behind the tablesaw is essential here. By cutting the stiles together, I'm sure they...

Saturday, November 28, 2009
After drawing the center line, I trace on a piece of hardboard each half from the paper pattern I made earlier. Here is the result. Note that an optical illusion from the camera shows the bottom of the lines curved towards the inside. I'm making...

Wednesday, December 16, 2009
I install this shopmade support on my workbench to raise the face frames to be cut. I use the jigsaw with a coarse blade to cut the curves on the lower part of the face frames. The blade stays away from the line. The router will complete the cut. This...

Sunday, December 27, 2009
The final sanding is made by hand, particularly the rounded edges, that I sand with 500 grit sandpaper. You should feel the smoothness of the edges. This is very nice wear simulation. It looks like I'm wearing sawdust gloves! Finally, the face frames...

Sunday, January 10, 2010
I install the face frames on the upper hutches to mark for the biscuits. To do so, I use a block of wood to align the lower ends. I'm using bar clamps to temporarily set the face frames and get a small T-square and a pencil. At each 8-10 inches...

To proceed gluing the face frames, I raise the casings on these shopmade I-beams. Doing so, I'll be able to slip the clamps under the casings. I spread a moderate amount of glue and insert the biscuits. As shown, I proceed with one hutch at a time...

goP@Riot, goP@Riot (Self-released). The trio of drummer Nate Weaver, bassist Ben Williams and second bassist Sean Inman twitches, twists and turns more than a condemned man swinging below the gallows. While "fast-loud-ugly" seems to be the guiding esthetic, the trio's instrumental virtuosity and occasional concessions to melody and structure make for a surprisingly accessible experimental rock record. — Eyl
Hearts of Palm, The Bridge EP (Morning After/Illegal Petes). As Nathan & Stephen, this outfit set the bar high with an audacious debut that it seemed unlikely to match. With this limited-edition four-song EP, though, the rechristened band captured lightning in a bottle once again, with even greater exuberance and catchier songs. — Herrera
Hello Kavita, And Then We Turned Sideways (Self-released). This debut from Corey Teruya and company melds '70s California rock with Neil Young and a heaping helping of delicious melancholy to create the ideal soundtrack for sad sacks and intellectuals. Teruya's subtle, enigmatic and economical songwriting doesn't waste a word or a note in delivering its powerful punch. — Eyl
Fred Hess, Single Moment (Self-released). With an impressive mix of original flights and covers of jazz standards, this album is a testament to Hess's unique ability to reconcile jazz's traditional and avant-garde components in a single package. Takes on classics such as Rodgers and Hart's "Spring Is Here" side by side with original Hess compositions like "Norman's Gold" make for a seamless blend. — Goldstein
The Hollyfelds, Saratoga (Self-released). Vocalists Eryn Hoerig and Kate Grigsby, with help from the other Hollyfelds, make music that splits the difference between alt-country and the genre's mainstream — a difficult balancing act, but one they manage to strike more often than not. Tracks like "Empress of Wyoming" and "It's a Good Thing" are emotional yet accessible, with just the right touch of twang. — Roberts
Hungry Giant, [Under] Mining Skies (Self-released). Capturing the essence of being a creative person in a world seemingly hostile to such instincts, these songs document the urban experience in the high plains west with a ferocious intelligence and insight. This is atmospheric hip-hop with musicality at its core and creativity guiding its experimental twists and turns. — Murphy
Ichiban, Psycle Analysis (Self-released). This has been a benchmark year for Ichiban, from being crowned best MC at the Westword Music Showcase Awards to seeing this release crack CMJ's Top 20. The accolades are well deserved: Psycle Analysis is a hip-hop masterstroke, thanks to Ichiban's intelligent rhymes, smooth cadence and hook-infested production. — Herrera
Infinite Mindz, Monkey Rebellion Music (Self-released). Infinite Mindz pretty much took the local hip-hop scene by storm with its debut album. The album showcases tight beats, fresh lyrics, and a sound and vibe all its own. Although the group changed its lineup with the departure of Frankie Figz and the addition of Spoke In Wordz, it's still a group to watch out for. — Salazar-Moreno
Joe Thunder Presents Contact and Six O' Clock, Go for Broke (Self-released). While Contact and Six O' Clock are supposed to be the stars of this release, we're sorry to say they were outshone by the production and guests who were so freaking incredible. With some of Colorado's best MCs, like F.O.E., Deca and Distrakt, sprinkled throughout the project, and hot production from Kevin Pistol, Rude Boy and Status, it's a solid showpiece for local talent.
— Salazar-Moreno
The Knew, Boom Bust (Self-released). The Knew's collaboration with producer and Hot IQs member Bryan Feuchtinger (who also oversaw last year's Holladay) has yielded another gem. "By Yourself," which is capable of taking control of hips whether their owner likes it or not, and the stop-start, rat-a-tatting charm of "Hey, Let's Live Together" make this EP a boom, not a bust. — Roberts
Laylights, Auricle (Self-released). Laylights builds upon and refines its atmospheric Brit-pop sound with unforgettable songs, impossible-to-ignore sonic complexity and powerful vocal risks. Drummer Martin Baker and bassist Chris Martucci have never sounded more confident and cohesive, driving Ian McCumber and Tyler Hayden's dense, atmospheric guitars straight into the rocks. — Eyl
Machine Gun Blues, I Hate the Machine Gun Blues (Self-released). Though the compressed recording and restrained performances fail to capture the cartoonish chaos of the Machine Gun Blues' live show, this EP adequately documents the glorious proto-garage-punk mess that the group was. There will be no more MGB live shows, so this is one for the vaults. And the bonus track is the ultimate middle finger. — Eyl
ManeLine, ...& Sew Its Seams (Self-released). Mane Rok, InkLine and DeeJay Tense share a knowledge of, and reverence for, hip-hop history that informs every syllable and groove on their latest platter. Rather than jump on the trend du jour, they move forward into the past in a manner that leaves tunes such as "All Alone" seeming fresher than anyone has a right to expect. — Roberts
Aakash Mittal, Possible Beginnings (Self-released). Throughout nearly every one of the original songs on Aakash Mittal's debut album, the young saxophonist and flutist draws as much from his Eastern Indian roots (a lot of tunes were inspired by family members) as he does from jazz history. — Solomon

What is the treatment for fainting (syncope)?
Fainting is not normal, although the cause may not be serious. When in doubt, calling 911, activating the emergency medical system, and seeking medical care is appropriate. It is always appropriate to seek medical care.
If the episode is short-lived and the person returns to normal function with no evidence of injury, it may be appropriate to contact the primary care practitioner to discuss care options.
If the person is not breathing and no pulse can be felt, 911 should be activated, an AED placed, and bystander CPR should be initiated.
In the ambulance, hospital, or doctor's office, because the potential life-threatening causes of syncope need to be initially considered; often a patient who complains of fainting (syncope) will be placed on a heart monitor, have an intravenous line placed, and oxygen supplied. A fingerstick blood sugar may be checked to look for hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
Further treatment will be tailored to the specific cause of the fainting or syncope based upon the patient's evaluation.
Can fainting (syncope) be prevented?
Depending upon the cause, there may be opportunity to prevent fainting spells. For example:
- Patients who have had a vasovagal episode may be aware of the warning signs and be able to sit or lie down before passing out and avert the fainting episode.
- For older patients with orthostatic hypotension, waiting for a second after changing positions may be all that is needed to allow the body's reflexes to react.
- Medications may be adjusted if they are thought to be the potential cause of fainting or syncope.
- Adequate fluid intake may be enough to prevent dehydration as the cause for syncope.
- There is an increased awareness of syncope and sudden death in younger athletes due to hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. A variety of screening tests are available to assess potential risk for sudden death, but no consensus yet as to who and when to screen athletes has emerged.

Finding A Good CNC Job in FL
My Bestfriend's Name Is CNC
CNC machine tools are praised all over the world because of three major factors: automation, accuracy and versatility. Human (operator) intervention is reduced to minimal levels because CNC machines can run on its own after it is programmed. Also, when the program is perfected, the CNC machine can run the instructions perfectly on its own.
Remember that any CNC machine can also be programmed to do special one-time tasks such as a dry-run, which will help the operator oversee what will happen when s/he leaves the CNC machine to do its tasks alone. Accuracy also goes hand in hand with repeatability. Again, once the program is perfected, the CNC machine can perform that task PERFECTLY even until 7 or 7000 times.
Finding A Good CNC Machinist Job in FL
Lastly, versatility also works in the form of "task memory" that these CNC machines have. Once a program has been performed even for just one production run, it can be easily recollected the next time that the company needs the program. This saves time for setting up and loading of different programs.
The CNC sure simplifies the work of thousands of factories and machine shops worldwide. However, no matter how great CNC sounds like, it is something that doesn't fit in some industries. Like, perhaps, in the cosmetic industry, or in the show-business. Those examples are way too obvious. On the other hand, in these two major mechanical industries, CNC is almost synonymous to "hero".
Think of Metal. Metal. Perhaps the easiest metal that you can imagine is that of…a spoon. Now, imagine ANY spoon done with bare hands. After that, imagine a thousand spoons done with bare hands. It's so tedious you might even consider suicide if you are assigned to such a job.
Finding A High Paying CNC Machinist Job in Florida
The metal industry has been operating on CNC for ages. In fact, if you search CNC in the internet, you will instantly find metal companies topping the list. The major CNC centers that you will find in most metal machining processes are "CNC turning centers", "CNC machining centers", "CNC grinding centers" and "CNC drill and tap centers".
Some of the CNC programs that are connected with the metal industry are milling, drilling, reaming, boring and tapping. Moreover, any metal that has any curved side have experienced some form of knurling, grooving, turning and/or threading.
Fabrication, in manufacturing, refers to processes that are executed on thin plates/sheets. These sheets are cut, punched, and bent to form their finishing shapes. CNC also stars in almost every aspect of metal fabrication.
Finding A High Paying CNC Woodworking Job in Florida
While the most beautiful wood-worked products are most likely hand-made, you cannot deny that a wide array of tools and furniture HAVE to be NOT hand-made to save time and for mass production levels. There's just too much work and not to many hands. In light with this, CNC has worked wonders for this industry.
Important woodworking processes include cutting, framing, carving and engraving. The most useful woodworking CNC product is the CNC router table. It is capable of carving elaborate 2D and 3D designs. Moreover, it is also capable of material change while repeating the same design. Since contemporary furniture is often a splash of different materials (e.g. Wood, aluminum and/or plastic), any CNC router is capable of reproducing the same design EVEN in different kinds of materials by just altering the router bit.
Finding High Paying CNC Jobs in FL
Although many local, middle-sized enterprise owners are skeptical about using employing CNC in their manufacturing operations, there have been many success stories to sway them to using it anyway. In the Metal and Woodworking industries, CNC has proven itself time and again to be efficient.
It saves time and efforts in production and (more importantly) back-jobs. If you're venturing to one of these industries, remember that the word "labor" isn't something social anymore – it's technological. And start calling CNC your best friend.

Coles and Stokes to return to UK
England Lions management today confirmed that Kent pace bowler Matt Coles and Durham all-rounder Ben Stokes will be sent home from the current tour of Australia, following disciplinary hearings for unprofessional conduct.
The pair had contravened their conduct obligations previously during the tour and had been issued with written warnings.
ECB Performance Director David Parsons said: "On a very challenging tour to Australia, both Matt and Ben have ignored the instructions given to them around their match preparation and recovery and, following previous warnings, it is regrettable that it has been necessary to terminate their involvement in the tour.
"Both are very talented individuals and it is hoped that, with the support of the ECB and their respective counties, they will take positive steps to give themselves the very best chance of fulfilling their potential.
"There will be no replacement players called up to the squad as a result of this matter."
Coles said: "I am very sorry about what has happened in Australia and I believe I have learnt my lesson. I have apologised to the players and coaches involved, so would now like to move forward from this by looking ahead to the start of the county season at Kent."
Stokes added: "I would like to apologise for the way in which I acted. I am determined to bounce back from this situation and I regret my actions off the field. I look forward to getting back to my county to start pre-season preparations."
The ECB will be making no further comment.

Re: STL 60: Dumpster Diving for Terrific Tools
As an archaeologist - working mostly in California - one of the facts about historic sites, 19th and early 20th century, that has always stood out is that metal tools are very uncommon. I've seen more guns, mostly pistols, than chisels for instance, and more cross-cut saws (the kind operated by either one or two men) than chisels. I excavated a ranch forge where two cross-cut saws were set, teeth downward, on slate bedrock cleared of soil, across the mouth of the forge and small, fine single-cut files were driven tang downward into the slate to fix the saws upright in position. I've also found a fragment of a Chinese natural water stone. But, by and large tools arfe not common. I've never seen a regular handsaw or a plane nor do I recall a hammer in more than 20 years or professional archaeology on about 30 historical archaeological sites.
I never understood this until I began woodworking. Most of my planes are older than I am and some will turn 100 in the next few years - Type 11 Stanley Baileys. My wife's uncle, who is now in his 90s gave me several saws and a Millers Fall bench plane when he moved back to Connecticut. In looking them up, most were at least as old as he was, and one is pre-Civil War (1850s). There are a large number of hand tools that are a century or more in age that are still in use and will still be useable a century from now. I expect my son will get mine.
Re: Shop Talk Live 36: Definitely a Dovetail Disaster
Regarding the new music. The complainers need to turn in their ears, or get an education in music. Changing theme music occasionally doesn't hurt. But still, "bluesy" is adult????
BTW, moving cabinetry between southern and northern California, or between the coast and the interior can result in catastrophic failures: doors twisted into pretzels, panels jamming and then splitting.
Re: Avoid Twisted Doors in Your Furniture Projects
I have, well my wife has an old "gun cabinet" that I believe started life as a side board. I think it was retasked for guns and fishing rods, possibly when whoever ordered the original failed to pay up. We moved the piece from southern California to northern California and within about a year the doors were twisted like pretzels. The material is good looking mahogany and the door panels are nicely cut tongue and groove multi-piece assemblies that were unfortunately glued together and then glued into the door assembly. So, not only did the doors twist madly, the tongues on some of the subpanel elements have ripped right off. It is quite a restoration project, but I think it will be in better shape when done than it was when new.
Re: What hand tools can't you live without?
I would replace the tape measure with a folding rule, or else add one. I'ld also suggest treating the interior of the chest so that the tannin in the oak won't corrode carbon steel tools.
Re: It's impossible to cheat at woodworking
Cadabra, you're playing semantic games with your definition of "cheating." In fact you don't use it in the same sense in all of the examples you offer. So, is it really "cheating" to reheat pizza in the microwave? Well, no. If you have the time, the oven is definitely better, since the results aren't soggy and resemble the original out-of-the-oven version more closely. It IS "cheating" if you are telling yourself it has all the same pleasant qualities as oven-baked though, but you are only cheating yourself.
Matt's article makes it pretty clear that quality is a key criterion and that happens to recognize a vital historical fact about tools and tool use without syaing as much. Patterns and jigs were in use centuries ago. Arguing that such devices are "cheating" is the logical equivalent of saying that metal tools (blades, scrapers) are cheating and that the ancient Egyptian way is the only true way, or that hafts on tools are cheating and Cro Magnon man was the last true wood worker. It's silly.
In fact, I can say so from experience, a fully hand-cut joint can be a mess, if you have yet learned the methods for using the tools you employ to make the joint and that is as true for machine tools as it is for hand tools. The fence Matt shows is precisely the same conceptual application as a bench hook or a miter box, and it is used for precisely the same reason, to guide the blade and relieve the craftsman of some of the need for additional, and tiring, concentration and muscle control. You can focus on driving the chisel and the depth of cut.
Re: Neckties and Tablesaws Just Don't Mix
Doesn't matter. Ties around table saws are poor thinking. That photo still presents profound ignorance of good practice. Probably he has handlers who have insured that the saw is unplugged, but still, a moment of thought would let anyone who actually knows much about physics and electricity, that a SawStop will not protect you from being strangled by your saw, because you dipped your tie in it. In fact, given the first comment, about the SS reacting when the blade touched his head, it would not have strangled him. It would have snapped his neck like a hangman's noose. SO, while it is certainly safer than a regular saw, it could be that a truly catastrophic accident with an SS would be fatal, not just an injury. It would not be nearly as common as amputations, and would be less costly than physical therapy, so insurance companies might like it better. Rehabilitation can be considerably more costly than simple death benefits.
Significantly, that saw in the video is plugged in to the California State Capitol power supply. And, the assemblyman DOES make a cut with a piece of plywood and a hot dog. The observations in the blog aren't just ironic and do not call for a chuckle. There is no indication the fool took his tie off.
Re: California Considers Tougher Safety Standards for Tablesaws
One point that is a good one is the "power, money, greed" triumvirate. The problem is that the culprits are not saw manufacturers, but insurance companies. Liability is an enormous industry in the state - and in the country - that keeps an army of lawyers in expensive suits and really nice cars. Liability suits always target deep pockets rather than responsible parties. Like the "seat belt" laws, this type of legislation protects the profit margins of health and liability insurers.
The proposed legislation will not lower premiums, but it will potentially reduce costs to insurers significantly, since the published indicates that treatment for table-saw related accidents is more than $2-billion a year, increasing the profitability of insurance purveyors.
The aggravation is not the idea of a good active safety measure on a table saw. Mine has none at all, since the Chinese-made elements simply would not mount on the saw. It is that a replacement will cost more, and what I pay will not be recovered by any reduction in my health insurance costs. As it is, I find that sheer terror when operating the saw is a very effective safety measure.
Re: Blade brake inventor aims to compete with SawStop
There's a lot of misinformation on this thread that seems to indicate the same lack of attention that loses fingers in the shop. The system above is triggered by proximity not a touch to the blade. There may well be NO tooth encounters before blade stops - which is precisely what you see in the video - NO blade encounter at all. The brake triggers BEFORE you touch the blade.
Instead of destroying a valuable blade and running up a very costly repair bill replacing the SS-style brake, you still have a usable saw that stopped very, very quickly, a reminder you were not paying proper attention, and all your digits. Better yet, if the zombies in our elected government do pass a law to protect us from our wandering minds and ignorance, the device can be retrofitted to an existing saw, something that can't be done with SawStop. Personally I would like that, since MY saw was shipped from China with a guard that simply couldn't be attached. So, any time I use it, I'm bloody terrified. Of course I feel that way about my chisels too, and I doubt that anyone can invent a chisel stop, or a kevlar glove fine enough to allow proper sense of touch.
Re: CPSC Drafting New Tablesaw Regulations
Two things. First, "what is wrong with you people?" Lawyers. It was clear that there absolutely no reason other than deep pockets for suing the saw manufacturer. There were guards and if the worker had used them, and if the employer had observed the modicum of OSHA requirements there would have been no injury. So, stupid worker, sloppy employer, greedy lawyer (well, maybe just a hungry one).
Second, "why hasn't Sawstop technology been licensed?" It would seem to be a no-brainer for manufacturers to do so. Since they haven't, and they do have experience with lawyers, it would appear that the patent holder has some really vicious licensing. If we get rid of patents, and instead look to the market to establish reasonable margins, the tablesaw might be a good deal safer.
Re: Play Fine Woodworking's Game: Against the Grain
It would have been nice if the "sleeve" issue had a better range where the choice could be selected. I picked the wrong spot three times. Otherwise, pretty cool.
Re: Is Danish Modern the furniture style of our time?
Another possibly indirect influence is notable. Some of the examples of Danish furniture at Danish-Furniture are very reminiscent of classical Chinese work, some of the chairs especially.
Re: Reader Says Mythbusters Missed on Hammer Strikes
While I've never had a steel hammer chip, I've never wailed away on anything while using a steel hammer with enough force to classify the "use" as abuse. I have chipped splitting wedges with a sledge.
On the other hand, I chip stone. I can and have chipped stone all day and know just where each chip will come from and where it will go. The chief lesson learned is that chips are predictable. Any brittle material will chip and the geometry of the strike and striking surfaces, the relative hardness and toughness of the hammer and the object being struck all enter into the result. You would not for instance try to chip glass with a glass impactor.
If you try driving the claws of one hammer under a nail using a another hammer, the plane of the strike interface is going to run through your body, possibly even your head. Since the hammer faces are likely to be nearly equal in the important physical traits (like two pieces of glass or obsidian), either piece may chip. Since the primary degrees of freedom of motion for resulting chip motions are going cluster around the plane between the impacting surfaces; the motion of chips is going to be within a few degrees of that plain. If you can see that point, that's bad. If someone else's body can be intersected by that plane, that's bad. If a surface is present near the blow and and could serve to cause ricochets, that is not good either.
Adequate safety precautions are fairly simple. First, never, ever strike two objects of similar composition and physical character together (well lead or copper will probably be OK, but even brass will sometimes crack and chip). Second, wear safety gear. Third, have others clear out of the potential discharge path of resulting chips. Fourth, a backstop should be a material a chip will embed in rather than bounce off. So peen on a piece of plywood on the workbench, NOT on the cast iron saw table.

My favourite Windproof/waterproof cycling jacket
I have purchased the Featherlite jacket 3-4 years ago so I've put it through a lot of abuse. Ever since then I did not get a different one. The jacket has everything I need for my commute or week-end cycles. I live on the west coast of Ireland with rain and wind constant companions. This jacket protects me from both and the extra additional chill factor. I often came soaked from cycles, but never cold. The jacket is light, easy to carry around and waterproof. I would warmly recommend it to anyone.

Great jacket
I have one of these jackets and its saved me from hyperthermia more than once. The jacket folders up rediculiously small and it a great fit. It has hi-vis sections to make you more visable and the cuffs are great and secure. I'd recommend it

Good Bike Jacket
I been using one of these jackets for a while for work, teaching mountain biking, it is great for keeping warm at the start of a ride whipping off when it gets hot and it packs so small so it doesn't take up space in the bag. We have also started giving the same jackets to the clients for the same reasons. If there is a downfall it is they don't react well to being thown down the track with the rider inside but then body armour is probably needed not jacket ...
Author: Tim Pickering
Super light and packable
Great for cooler spring / autumn rides or just as a general emergency windproof. It easily stuffs into a jersey pocket and you hardly notice it's there. It's breathable enough that you don't sweat too much when riding hard, and in a light shower it keeps the rain off long enough to get home.

TUCSON - Last night, a 73-year-old woman drove through the front of a Circle K in the Village of Oak Creek, south of Sedona, sheriff's officials confirm.
At about 6:30 p.m. last night, Yavapai County Sheriff's Office deputies responded to a report of a car that had driven through the Circle K located at 6051 Highway 79, a news release form the YCSO stated.
The driver pulled into a space in front of the store, and while stopping, her foot slipped onto the accelerator pedal, the release stated. Her car drove over the concrete parking space bumper, through the front window, to the right of the front doors.
No one in the building was injured, nor was the driver, the release states. She did not show signs of impairment from alcohol or physical ailment.
Several store shelves, fixtures and dispensing machines were damage, but the car did not hit and structural supports. The driver was not cited.

May 5, 2014 10:01 PM by The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES (AP) - A former Transportation Security Administration officer has been sentenced to nearly six years in federal prison for taking bribes to allow cocaine smuggling through her screening station at Los Angeles International Airport.
City News Service reports that 29-year-old Joy White of Compton was sentenced to 70-months in prison by U.S. District Judge Margaret M. Morrow on Monday.
White pleaded guilty last year to conspiracy to aid in the possession of cocaine with intent to distribute. She was one of seven, including other former and then-current screeners, indicted in April 2012 for the scheme to smuggle drugs through checkpoints onto planes.
Defense attorney Joel Thvedt argued for a three-year term and said White, a mother of two, was suffering from postpartum depression and was in desperate financial straits at the time.

Step 1: Cut the Diamond Plate
Using a circular saw fitted with a metal-cutting blade, trim 4 in. from a piece of 0.08-in. diamond-plate aluminum that measures 24 x 24 in. You could use a jigsaw, but the cut wont be as straight or as smooth, even if you employ a straightedge guide.

Jan. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Showa Shell Sekiyu K.K. of Japan will supply as much as 150 megawatts of thin-film solar panels to a North American renewable energy unit of EDF Energies Nouvelles SA.
The panel contract is worth more than 10 billion yen ($130 million), Akane Yamiya, a spokeswoman for Show Shell unit Solar Frontier K.K. said by phone today in Tokyo. She declined to give further details.
Solar Frontier is supplying the panels to enXco Inc. for a solar park project in Kern County, California, which will be built in two phases, the companies said in a statement yesterday.
About 60 megawatts of generation capacity is targeted to go online by the end of the year and the rest of the project by June 2013. The plant will generate enough power for about 35,000 homes a year, the companies said.
Solar Frontier will supply panels using copper, indium, gallium and selenium, known as CIGS, produced at a factory in Miyazaki prefecture in southwestern Japan, according to Yamiya.
The company has annual capacity of about 1,000 megawatts at its three factories, all in Miyazaki.
"We are considering increasing our capacity," Yamiya said, without commenting further.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Babs!
Facts about Babs
- Breed: Miniature Pinscher Mix
- Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Babs's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Babs is heartworm positive.
Please visit our website: www.lfldr.com to complete an adoption application. All applicants must be 21.
Other Pets at Looking Fur Love Dog Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Babs, a Baton Rouge Miniature Pinscher dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Miniature Pinscher for sale in Baton Rouge, or seeking a Miniature Pinscher dog from a breeder in Baton Rouge.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Baton Rouge already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Baton Rouge breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Miniature Pinscher breeders who help with Miniature Pinscher rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Baton Rouge paves the way for another one to be saved.

Photos by Spencer Zidarich
Here's a little collection of shots Spencer and I took of each other this weekend while paroozing the Apple Fest. Exploring new neighborhoods always presents new spots for outfit pictures and Lincoln Square was no exception! This weekend was the first time I actually felt a chill this season. Somehow I reveled in that. Old feelings always seem more endearing when they are being rediscovered.
Spencer and I both opted for trench coats to fight the falling temperature. I always feel extra sharp when I have one cinched over my everyday ensemble. Trenches have that "it-factor" for me. Like this skirted trench, I always reach for it when wearing dresses. It gives the skirt room to breathe. I've had this 1950s plaid dress for many years, I bought it at my favorite vintage store in Minneapolis, Blacklist Vintage, before I even moved to Chicago. I try to pay a visit back whenever I am home. Something I always have luck with there are hatboxes. Particularly beautiful!
If you've noticed, my bangs have been looking rather shaggy as of late so apologies for the borderline angsty teenager vibe going on in this post. Getting a trim has inched its way to the top of my to-do list. Sometimes certain errands like that get lost in the crowd of other responsibilities until it presents itself right in front of my face (literally). Oh Danielle, will you ever learn?
How swoony are Spencer's leather boots? Can I have them made in my size? Please and thank you!

It was the sweetest sound I had ever heard. Right then and there my life changed.
That couldn't be more true.
To see you make others smile and bring such joy to others is an indescribable feeling.
But your daddy has decided that he wants to write you his own letter.
He is going to write you one every year and give them to you when you turn 18.
He won't even let me see them!
He's a very special man, you are lucky to call him daddy.

Courtesy Stemilt Growers, LLC., Stemilt Growers organic gala apples grow in their orchards. Gala is the No. 1 organic variety in Washington state, with fuji second, then red delicious, granny smith and fast-rising Honeycrisp, according to the Washington Apple Commission.YAKIMA, Wash. — Shipments of organic apples continue to rise in Washington, but production increases may slow in years ahead.
In 2012, the U.S. Department of Agriculture reported domestic shipments of organic apples from Washington totaled about 6.6 million cartons, compared with 6.4 million cartons in 2011 and 5.55 million cartons in 2010.
Export shipments of Washington organic apples totaled 680,000 cartons in 2012, compared with 752,000 cartons in 2011 and 632,500 cartons in 2010.
In part because of concern about the effectiveness of approved organic controls for fireblight, enthusiasm for organic tree fruit may be waning among some growers, some speculate.
In a move that took away an important weapon against fireblight, the National Organic Standards Board excluded the antibiotic tetracycline in organic apple and pear orchards after Oct. 21, 2014.
Certified organic apple acreage in Washington was reported at 13,655 aces in 2012, off from 14,296 in 2011 and 15,735 in 2009. Transition acreage for apples — acreage moving from conventional to organic — was put at 1,064 acres in 2012, up from 725 acres in 2011 but down sharply from 4,256 transition acres in 2008.
In 2012, organic apple acreage in Washington accounted for 8% of all apple acreage in the state.
Market and demand
Washington accounts for close to 70% of total U.S. organic apple acreage, and most Washington organic fresh apples are shipped from September through June.
December was the leading month for Washington apple organic movement in 2012, accounting for 15% of calendar year shipments, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture shipment figures.
March accounted for 13% of 2012 organic apple shipments, followed by 12% for January, November and February. July and August were the low points for organic apple movement, with each month accounting for less than 1% of total annual shipments of organic apples from Washington.
While Washington state's organic production of more than 8 million cartons in 2012-13 is significant, the most remarkable element is how varieties are tuned to consumer tastes, said Todd Fryhover, president of the Washington Apple Commission, Wenatchee.
"The interesting thing to me about the organic deal is not necessarily the volume but how the volume is broken out," he said.
The organic deal apparently turns faster to consumer taste than does conventional fruit, he said. Gala is the No. 1 organic variety, with fuji second, then red delicious, granny smith and fast-rising Honeycrisp with about 500,000 cartons, Fryhover said.

Album review
Clue To Kalo - Come Here When You Sleepwalk
In common with the excellent Icelandic group Múm and a bunch of artists on the Plug Research and Morr Music labels, Adelaide's Mark Mitchell is part of a new digital generation who take more inspiration from late-'80s indie, particularly dreampop, than the usual electronic curriculum. Feyness is a constant threat, but Mitchell's British debut generally tiptoes clear of whimsy, mixing up the guitar loops, squitting beats and genteel vocal angst in a way which becomes insidious. An introspective companion piece to the barnstorming Manitoba album (see p 120).

Railcats fall to Saltdogs, 10-4

GARY — Any chance the RailCats had of fashioning a second straight comeback pretty much burned up in a ragged sixth.
Without the benefit of a hit, Lincoln scored four runs in that inning on its way to a 10-4 win on Friday night at the Steel Yard.
In an inning in which Takahiro Matsuka made a less-than-spectacular RailCats — and American — debut, the Saltdogs used three hit batters (they were hit a total of five times in the game), a walk, a sacrifice fly and two errors by second baseman Chase Tucker on the same play to break open the game at 8-2.
"We took a step back tonight in terms of our play," RailCats manager Greg Tagert said.
"The hit batsmen on the pitching side, then the wild pitches (four), and the defensive side — we really didn't give ourselves a chance tonight, not to take away anything from the Saltdogs."
Matsuka recorded just one out before leaving with the bases loaded (two hit batters and a walk), eventually charged with three runs (two earned).
"There's concern there," Tagert said. "We've seen him throw well for us, we've seen flashes, but we're not sure what we're going to get."
RailCats starter Ari Ronick, converting back to the rotation after spending the last two seasons in the bullpen in the San Francisco Giants organization, went five innings, allowing four runs on three hits with three strikeouts, three walks, and two hit batters.
After retiring all five batters he faced in Thursday's season opener, Taylor Sewitt really picked up the RailCats bullpen on Friday, coming through with 22/3 innings, allowing an unearned run on a hit with three strikeouts. But by then, it was too late for them.
The Saltdogs (1-1) scored four runs in the third to take a 4-1 lead, highlighted by a three-run homer by Matt Forgatch — who spent part of last season in Gary — the fourth homer the RailCats have allowed in two games this season.
The RailCats (1-1) had taken a 1-0 lead in the first on Mike Massaro's one-out single and Ryan Babineau's two-out single up the middle.
"I don't know if it's something we'll address, being so early in the season, and I don't want to say it was a letdown, but some things started to snowball," Tagert said.
Notes: Danny Pulfer got the start at third base on Friday night, after Brian Kolb was a late scratch. Kolb suffered a jammed finger in Thursday's game sliding home with a run in the second inning, and it remained swollen overnight. It was not thought that Kolb's finger was broken, but he likely was going to get X-rays to be sure. … Right-hander Stephen Hiscock was scheduled to start Saturday night's game, against Saltdogs lefty Nathan Moreau.
