Left 4 Dead Infects Xbox 360 [Casemod]
This wouldn't be the first L4D + Xbox 360 combo we've featured here on technabob, but I think it's my new favorite.
Modder Tjpitbull decked out his 360 with a complete Left 4 Dead inspired look, covering the entire case with a distressed military green paintjob on both the console and controller. And you see that giant cutout "4" from the game's logo? It's backlit with bright blood red LEDs when the lights go down – and the most appropriate Red Rings of Death you'll ever see.
Here's some video of the glowing red L4D console doing its glowing thing.
I promise I won't write about any more L4D casemods unless someone manages to make one that looks just like a lifesize Boomer. And then it needs to explode and cover you with a malodorous slime that attracts a horde of smaller 360s.

How to get Usability and Ergonomics News with an RSS Feed
This page discusses the benefits and method for creating an RSS feed to Usability and Ergonomics News. All of the information discussed here applies to numerous other News Feeds such as CNN, Washington Post, NY Times, etc. You will be able to access all these news sources on your desktop as articles are published rather than having to check each website to see if there are any new articles of interest.
Usernomics has two News Pages with an RSS Feed for each: (a) Ergonomics In The News (Biometrics, Health & Safety, Occupational, Workplace, Physical, and Office Ergonomics) and (b) Usability In The News (Human-Computer Interaction, Interface Design, and Usability).

Go to the Ergonomics In The News RSS Feed
RSS is a format for syndicating news and the content of news sites, including major news sites like Wired, NY Times, Washinton Post, Slashdot, etc. RSS stands for "Really Simple Syndication." RSS allows you to keep up to date with the news on your favourite web sites without having to visit them all individually. RSS sends the details straight to your news reader for you to browse through each time an update is detected.
RSS is based on XML, a widely used standard for information exchange between applications on the Internet. RSS feeds can be viewed as plain text files, but they are really designed for computer-to-computer communication. Note that RSS is just one standard for expressing feeds as XML.
The most compelling use of RSS is that it lets users read dozens of websites, all on the same page. The sites can be scanned in seconds rather than having to be laboriously loaded individually.
Usernomics now offers a free RSS feed for news about usability and ergonomics. Use this together with either a web based RSS feed reader, or a Desktop RSS feed reader to keep up to date on the news, throughout the day, every day.
You will either need to download and install a Desktop RSS feed reader program or use one of the web based RSS feed readers. This is very simple to do and most of them are free - it is very similar to reading newsgroups in Outlook Express. We have listed some of the most popular programs below. Once you have either installed or subscribed to a news reader, simply add our RSS feed URL into the appropriate "add feed" section. It will then collect and display the latest headlines.
A quick and easy way to get RSS Feeds is on the Web with Newsgator. There are two nice features with Newsgator: they update the news frequently and they show the whole feed including images. You can automatically add any RSS Feed by clicking on this logo whenever you see it:
To subscribe to the Usernomics' RSS Feed for either Usability In The News or Ergonomics In The News, follow these simple steps:
It's as simple as that. The good news is that you will now be able to add RSS Feeds from any site displaying the Newsgator button. Even if a site does not display the Newsgator button, you can still add it by copying and pasting the URL of the RSS Feed into the Newsgator reader.
Another easy way to get any RSS Feed is through My Yahoo! This is similar to Newsgator and if you already have a My Yahoo! account it might be easier. You can automatically add any RSS Feed by clicking on this logo whenever you see it:
To subscribe to the Usernomics' RSS Feed for either Usability In The News or Ergonomics In The News, follow these simple steps:
Another simple solution. The good news is that you will now be able to add RSS Feeds from any site displaying the Yahoo button. Even if a site does not display the Newsgator button, you can still add it by copying and pasting the URL of the RSS Feed into the Yahoo reader.
Following are a variety of readers that act much like the Newsgator and Yahoo reders. Some are Web based like Yahoo and others are stand-alone desktop readers that require a download. You get the same information and the main difference between readers are convenience features.
A list of news readers appears below. They are divided up into web based readers and desktop readers. Please bear in mind that different readers work with different operating systems, so do check the instruction details before installing.

After we worked out all the details of our flight home, we were faced with the awkward task of telling our national and missionary friends that we were leaving without explaining why. We revealed the news about our resignation gradually, so as to minimize the amount of awkward time in between the announcement and our departure.
When Southern Baptist (and probably all) missionary families resign from the mission field, it is usually due to one of a handful of reasons, including failure to adjust to the new culture, children going to college, health problems, financial problems, illegal or immoral behavior, and (too often) marriage problems. Everyone knew that our reason for leaving had nothing to do with the first two of these, and we took pains to assure everyone that it was not due to the latter four. Still, it must have sounded fishy: "We're leaving, but we can't say why. Really, though, everything is just fine! Just trust us!" I don't know what everyone must have thought, but I was certain that no one guessed that we were leaving because we wanted to convert to Orthodoxy. Later, after we arrived home and told the whole story, my suspicion was confirmed. No one had been even close!
Even worse than the awkwardness of not being able to tell people why we were leaving was the deep sadness we felt about leaving the country and people whom we had grown to love. After a year and a half on the field, we had finally "arrived," both literally and figuratively. And now, we were having to give it all up. Still, we trusted that God would give us even more in return, and he certainly has.
I also realized that I was going to have to find myself a new career, at least for a while. I knew that the only field I could get into relatively easily, without the hassle and expense of years of further schooling, was teaching. I looked into several school districts and their alternative teacher certification programs. Unfortunately, the application date for someone wanting to start teaching in the fall of 2001 had passed in all but one. Ironically, it was the same suburban Houston district where I had attended from grades 2-12! Via email, I set up an interview with the director of the alternative certification program. The interview would be only a few days after we arrived home. All of us were thankful that God provided the means for us to not starve!
On April 21, 2001, we said goodbye one last time to our colleagues and our closest national friends. With tears in our eyes, Jennifer, Audrey, Courtney, and I left Banja Luka for the last time and drove to Zagreb. We spent the night in Zagreb at our missionary guest house, and boarded our plane the next morning. In passing, I must note that our colleagues, and indeed our whole missions organization, treated us very well. Even though they hated to see us go, and they certainly disagreed with our new theological position, they dealt with us with the utmost of integrity and Christian love. To this day, I will not allow anyone to speak badly of Southern Baptists, particularly not their missionaries, in my presence. Even though I now disagree with much of their theology and practice, I still believe that the overwhelming majority of them are kind people who love God and are seeking to serve him as best they know how.
The plane touched down in Dallas later the same day. We were greeted at the airport by Jennifer's parents and sister, who drove us to their home in Texarkana. We were thankful to be safely back in the U. S. Now we had but a simple task ahead of us: starting our lives over from scratch!

Anyone who carefully studies this issue and is intellectually honest must come to the conclusion that valuation limits are bad for Arizona and for economic development. Before we dismantle the Arizona property tax system and change our state Constitution, we must conduct a thorough and careful analysis of the impact the proposed valuation limits would have on our economy and our ability to fund local government.
We at the Arizona Association of Property Tax Analysts (AAPTA) are property tax professionals who have decades of experience with the Arizona property tax system. AAPTA agrees that the current system is complex, but we also agree that Prop. 117 is NOT the answer. While limitations on property tax valuations may negatively impact our industry, we stand in opposition to Prop. 117 primarily because AAPTA agrees with "independent, authoritative studies and experts" which say that Property Valuation Limits are "bad public and economic policy". If the goal is to reduce the property tax burden, valuation limits are clearly not the answer. They are merely gimmicks with significant negative impacts.
Negative Consequences of Proposition 117
• It unfairly favors wealthy property owners and high dollar real estate.
• It forces Arizona voters to change the state constitution when it is not needed.
• It creates "windfall" for rapidly appreciating high growth areas that will far outpace the 5% value limit. It also creates a "windfall" for properties already on the tax rolls at only a fraction of their true value with no remedy to fix it.
• It destroys "equity" when property valuation limits allow the favored class to be taxed at a fraction of their true value when the majority would be paying their fair share.
• It impairs bonding capacity and bond ratings.
Current Limitations are Sufficient
• Not a Valuation Problem! Recent Department of Revenue Sales Ratio studies indicate that property values had median ratios of less than 84% of true value.
• Assessors are required by statute to specifically analyze the market and the individual property for any value increase over 15%.
Independent Studies
• Google "Property Tax Value Limits" and check for yourself.
• Lincoln Land Institute – Lessons from Thirty Years experience.
• Tax and Expenditure Limits (TEL's) subject guide – International Association of Assessing Officers.
• Four easy steps to a fiscal train wreck: Andrew Young school of Policy Studies, Georgia State University.
• Surprise: an unintended consequence of Assessment Limitations, Land Lines.
These are only a few of the potentially devastating ramifications of valuation limits on real property values.
AAPTA cares deeply about being part of the solution to improve our property tax system. Our supporting independent data would strongly suggest that Prop 117 is not the answer. That is the reason our Tax professionals do not support Prop 117.

Peer-led Bereavement Support Groups
Please find the current schedule of our support group meetings here.
We hold four free peer-to-peer support group meetings in Connecticut each month for women and men who grieve the loss of a pregnancy or infant.

There is no judgment at our meetings: only understanding, compassion, and respect.
Each of our support group meetings is led by two trained volunteer facilitators who have themselves experienced the loss of a pregnancy or infant. All of our groups are drop-in groups: new participants are always welcome, and you may attend as many or as few meetings as you like.
To join a group, simply come to a meeting. You may come by yourself, with your partner, with a relative, or with a friend. There is never any pressure to speak; you may come to a meeting just to listen.
Though most people feel nervous before their first support group meeting, nearly everyone is glad they came. We hope to see you at one of our upcoming meetings. Please find the current schedule here.

I spent some time in Chicago this winter and was able to get some photos in, despite the extreme cold (in context of the southern winters that I'm used to). These shots were from the second day of our visit, which was mainly spent shopping and walking; nothing for me to complain about when there are both heated stores and pretty snowfall.

Engineers are among those people who find solutions to everyday problems. From creating useful household and industrial tools to knowing how to make things work, engineers are the main people who have this job.
They play a vital role in making the lives of many people more comfortable by leading in innovating things and solving problems that no people in other professions do.
Join us in this podcast as Felicia interviews Douglas Rabeneck, an inspired and dedicated Industrial Engineer, as we learn how he became what he is now.
In this podcast we'll learn important things about Rabeneck's journey in becoming an established and well-regarded industrial engineer and:
- What are the things that made him decide in becoming an industrial engineer
- In his years in the industry, what keeps him remained motivated in doing what he is doing now
- What are the roles that industrial do that separates his career from any other professions
- Why he think students of today should pursue a career in industrial engineering
- What advice he can give to students who are considering a career as an industrial engineer
Being an industrial engineer means knowing other things other than industrial engineering. Since this career is a mixture of business, technology, and processes in an industrial setting, an aspiring industrial engineer must be flexible and willing to learn many things that'll make the industry better.

I have a question for the experts here. I am in the process of ripping up a two layer floor in my kitchen in preparation for tiling. The two layers are a linoleum layer and then a glued down (to the linoleum) engineered hardwood floor. Getting it up was pretty easy, but the paper backing on the linoleum is left on the floor. Do I need to remove this paper backing before I put down the backer board for the tile? |

Google Result Pages – New Format ?
December 30th, 2005 at 10:28pm
Just found that the Google result page format has changed! Specially while using IE. The change is not yet visible for Firefox. The links on top have moved to the left, and lot of space available on the right side of the screen (ads???).
Not sure how long this would last, may be Google could be doing some testing…… Anyway, here is as screen shot of the same…
Can you see these changes too ?

12 Gut-Wrenching Scenes That Are Practically Gore-Free
Cinematic Listology By David Christopher Bell on October 4, 2012 | Comments (22)Ah yes. It's that time of the year, folks. The only month where it's slightly less mean to jump out at a child while wearing a clown mask. The vandal's holiday… cretin Christmas. It really is a special time for all of us horror movie fans. So let's light some candles, get our favorite Misfits album out and start this party. They say that nothing can ever outdo the imagination – something that is most evident when it comes to terror and death. It's not what you see that scares you – it's what you don't. It's why we fear the dark. So while gore is great fun, it's nothing compared to something merely implied.
Comic-Con 2012: 'Dredd' Clip Packs a Lot of Splatter Into 60 Seconds
Comic-Con By Nathan Adams on July 13, 2012 | Comments (1)After 1995's Sylvester Stallone-starring take on the "Judge Dredd" comic series shit the bed and offered film and comic geeks little more than a couple of ironic quotables from a pizza delivery guy played by Rob Schneider, it didn't seem very likely that anyone would take a shot at revisiting the property anytime soon. Seventeen years must be the statute of limitations on this one though, because here we are in 2012, getting a promotional clip for a new Karl Urban-starring take on the material called Dredd. Having reservations about this film due to past failures in translating the character to live action is understandable, but it's starting to look like it might not be justified. Dredd recently screened for audiences at Comic-Con, and the buzz coming out of the room was that this new take on the character is much more true to the original comics. Word on the street is that this is a gritty, gory, action-packed shoot 'em up that has way more in common with the face-punchingly awesome The Raid: Redemption than it does any Sylvester Stallone failures.
'The Devil Inside' Red Band Trailer Kicks Things Up a Notch
Movie News By Nathan Adams on December 26, 2011 | Be the First To CommentWhen the theatrical trailer was released for Paramount's upcoming horror movie The Devil Inside, I responded to it by groaning and putting my face in my hands. There wasn't anything in the footage that made this film look any different from the one million exorcism movies or the one thousand found footage horror movies that are already out there. Was this project really necessary? Well, the new red band trailer hints that though it might not be necessary, The Devil Inside might still be pretty fun. No, there isn't anything revolutionary going on here that's going to separate this film from the rest of the pack in your mind, but it's starting to look like this one goes a few steps further than the rest of the recent exorcism films as far as big time spectacle, creepy effects work, and offensive content goes. This time around we get extended bone-crunching gymnastics, camera-splattering vaginal blood, lots of action, and a bit with a baby that's bound to give you the willies.
Boiling Point: 'Shark Night 3D' Threatens Schlock Without the Shock
Boiling Point By Robert Fure on August 29, 2011 | Comments (2)No matter what I say below, know this: I will see Shark Night 3D. There are no press screenings, no DVDs mailed to my home. I will head out to a theater to watch it because I love sharks and I love watching people get eaten by them. So to be extra clear: I haven't seen the film yet. No one has. But still, I'm going to bitch about it, because that's how I roll. Why? Well, because it's easy to get mad at this film. It's rated PG-13. I mean, if there ever was a title for a hard R-rating, it's Shark Night 3D. After all, Piranha 3D, which was probably instrumental in green lighting this late entry to Shark Week, was well received because of its gore. Its nudity. Its generally over the top nature. Without Jerry O'Connell getting his dick bit off and two hot, naked women swimming for six minutes, that film is a pile of crap. The blood makes it – and the PG-13 rating for Shark Night might break it.
Why Watch? It features the revenge of a household item we've been dumping our shit in for years. For the next week or so, we'll be shining a spotlight on some of the short films from the ABCs of Death competition going on right now to find the 26th director for the upcoming horror anthology. Each entry starts with the letter T and has to pick a T-word to use in a deadly way. We've featured work from Lee Hardcastle before, and this new short has the same wicked charm and horror sensibility that manages to make you laugh while cringing. What does it cost? Just 4 minute of your time. Check out T is For Toilet for yourself:
Blood, Sweat and Latex: A Brief Stint on 'From Beyond'
Blood Sweat and Latex By Shannon Shea on August 15, 2011 | Comments (1)For newbies to the column, I'm recalling defining moments that made me what I am: A Special Effects Make Up Artist looking for relevance in the 21st Century. The time is 1985, and I have finished a tour of duty for Stan Winston's Studio. I am 23 years old. Freelance. Footloose and fancy-free. Unemployed again. I had tasted of the good life and knew that, somehow, I needed to return to Stan Winston Studios. It was everything I imagined working in a Hollywood special make-up effects studio would be and more. It certainly was first class all of the way but at the moment, it was irrelevant. Alec Gillis and Rick Lazzarini had left and joined Stan and the rest of the crew in England to continue work on Aliens. I, on the other hand, needed to find work. Toward the end of Invaders from Mars, a rumor began circulating that Rick Baker was putting together a crew to build a Sasquatch suit for a film entitled Harry and the Hendersons. Now, regardless of what others may or may not think, I knew that my work was below the established standard of excellence at Rick's studio. This was confirmed when I interviewed with him and I wasn't hired.
The 'Conan the Barbarian' Red Band Trailer Gets Vampiric
Movie News By Nathan Adams on June 17, 2011 | Comments (3)Up to this point I haven't been all that excited about the upcoming remake of Conan the Barbarian. All of the ads have made it look like a pretty generic swordplay film that could sit alongside the B-level stuff I'd watch on cable as a kid on Sunday afternoons. But then, on last week's episode of Game of Thrones, we got a great fight scene where Conan star Jason Momoa gleefully slit a guy's throat and then reached in and pulled out all of his neck guts and his tongue and stuff. It really whetted my appetite to see Momoa slash some more stuff up. And coincidentally enough, now IGN brings us a red band trailer for Conan that gives us almost exclusively tons of that. Momoa growls to us in this trailer that, "When a Barbarian feels thirst, it is a thirst for blood." It's a pretty sweet tag line, but it's also backed up by constant images of Conan hacking and slashing his way through the countryside. This movie seems to be all swirling swords and fountains of the red, sticky stuff. At one point Conan even seems to get amorous when he sees a lady put a sword through a downed opponent's skull. That's the sort of dedication to bloodletting that I can get behind. And in addition to the blood showers, we also get a glimpse of burned villages, sacrificed virgins, and what seems to be a much larger scale recreation of the trash compactor scene […]
Pleasant Surprise: 'Human Centipede II' Might Actually Be Disgusting
Movie News By Scott Beggs on June 6, 2011 | Comments (3)Besides the bad acting, the eye-rollingly terrible story, the logic gaps, and pointlessness, the biggest problem with Human Centipede was that it just wasn't all that gross. With a premise like that, you'd better deliver the goods, and director Tom Six instead covered the goods in adult diapers and pantomime poop-eating. Fortunately, its sequel has been flatly rejected by the British Board of Film Classification – citing "images of sexual violence, forced defecation, and mutilation." A plot synopsis of sorts has come from the decision, and it reveals that Human Centipede II (Full Sequence) will be employing a new horror trend into its bag of tricks. Of course, mild spoilers stand right ahead…
Guess what, everyone. Yoshihiro Nishimura is still obsessed with spraying gallons of blood from people's necks and shoving body parts where they absolutely don't belong. There's nothing wrong with that, but after Tokyo Gore Police, Vampire Girl vs Frankenstein Girl, and Mutant Girl Squad, the act is wearing thin enough to rip in half and release a tsunami of the red stuff spraying into the theater. Kika (Yumiko Hara) has her heart ripped out of her chest by her mother – a vicious woman who gives birth to a massive horde of zombies given power by the horns sticking out of their foreheads. The horde is mostly relegated behind a partition wall that separates Human Japan from Zombie Japan, but Kika teams up to go get her heart back and destroy all the zombies so that the country can be united again.

Pink Eye is Just What the Doctor Ordered
First Look By Paige MacGregor on July 12, 2008 | Comments (2)Normally, a movie titled Pink Eye wouldn't have caught my attention, but given the fact that I've had conjunctive eyetis (a.k.a. pink eye) twice since mid-May, I had to stop and take a brief look.

Master of Education, Educational Leadership
Master of Education, Educational Leadership
37-38 semester credits required (depending on the degree): face-to-face or online
This major is designed for those seeking formal educational leadership roles such as building-level principals, assistant principals, or instructional team leaders. The program emphasizes the administrator as an instructional leader. Skills appropriate to goal setting and maximizing human potential, the unique aspects of an organizational structure, and the management tasks of an administrator are identified. The major is offered utilizing a cohort model, and schedules are designed to allow the educator to complete a master's degree while teaching full time. Many classes are offered in both face-to-face and online formats. (The program director reserves the right to combine formats or replace an asynchronous online format with a synchronous videoconferencing format for individual classes in any semester.)
A significant expectation is that each student will identify a specific topic or problem of interest and will work on a project related to it. The EDUC7518 Action Research for Educators and EDUC7598C Seminar courses require the student to develop an action research proposal, complete the action research effort, submit the results in a formal paper to NNU, and make a formal presentation to an approved audience. The student will also complete an internship in a school setting under the supervision of a qualified building principal. The internship assignment must be approved by the school district and the NNU program director. Near the end of the coursework, each student will enroll in EDUC7700 (zero (0) credits) to complete a comprehensive examination.
The Building Administrator emphasis takes approximately 23 months, including the 9-month internship. Successful completion qualifies the graduate for recommendation to the State of Idaho for a Pre K-12 Principal endorsement on an Idaho Administrator Certificate.
It is the student's responsibility to submit the appropriate paperwork and fees to the Idaho State Department of Education for obtaining certifications and endorsements in Idaho. Current forms and information are available from the ISDE website. Students should check the Internet and other sources for specific requirements for certification in other states. An optional class may be offered to help students who want to become principal certified in Oregon: EDUC7570 Oregon Law and Finance. See the course descriptions for more information.
Required courses for M.Ed. Educational Leadership - Building Administrator (Face-to-Face and Online):
EDUC7500. Introduction to Online Learning (required for online students only) (1)
EDUC7511. The Learning Process (3)
EDUC7518. Action Research for Educators (3)

BlueScope protection slammed
PUBLISHED: 05 Oct 2012 00:06:00 | UPDATED: 05 Oct 2012 15:24:45PUBLISHED: 05 Oct 2012 PRINT EDITION: 05 Oct 2012Protected species ... rolled steel at BlueScope's Port Kembla manufacturing plant. Photo: Louie Douvis
Gemma Daley, Joanna Heath and Mathew Dunckley
A plan to impose a punitive tariff of up to 15.45 per cent on imported steel to help BlueScope Steel against foreign competition has sparked warnings of price spikes across the economy, including for new buildings, consumer goods and manufactured components.
The heavily subsidised car industry is leading the fight. But in a sign the decision could be self-defeating, a West Australian streetlight manufacturer said it expected to switch to foreign steel if the federal government acted on the recommendation of the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service.
A D Coote & Co's product manager, Mick Eidam, said the tariff would increase costs.
"We'd probably have to look at importing more finished product rather than manufacturing here, which would possibly affect the number of employees we have," he said. "As it is, we're trying to compete against imported lighting poles. It's getting more and more competitive out there."
The tariff on imported steel, designed to protect BlueScope, the nation's biggest steel maker, was criticised by the services sector, which is unhappy about support for stressed manufacturers, and steel customers, particularly car makers, who fear it will push up prices and lay the groundwork for tariffs to be applied to other products.
"Steel and car manufacturing are no longer viable here."
"The subsidies and protection are misguided and need to stop," said Australian Services Roundtable executive director Andrew McCredie. "Steel and car manufacturing are no longer viable here."
Master Builders Australia chief executive Wilhelm Harnisch said the government should not ignore the plight of the construction industry, which is a heavy user of steel.
Australian Tourism Export Council managing director Felicia Mariani said support should be targeted at growth industries.
The Customs Service's preliminary advice to the government proposes a tariff of up to 15.45 per cent on hot rolled coil imported steel depending on the product and the origin. Its recommendation goes to the Minister for Home Affairs, Jason Clare.
General Motors Holden managing director Michael Devereux said the company would ask the federal government to change the dumping laws.
"I'm incredulous at what seems to be the path that is being taken," he said. "I cannot even begin to tell you how bad that is for our business."
Mr Devereux criticised the lack of a legislative exemption for car makers and said it was illogical to be spending government money aiding the car industry at the same time as pushing up costs for car makers.
Mr Devereux said that while he supported dumping provisions, the steel tariff was the "tip of the iceberg" because dumping cases covering aluminium wheel rims and coated steel were still being considered by the government. BlueScope is asking for protection from foreign coated steel.
If a similar tariff were applied to coated steel it would add "hundreds of dollars" to Holden's cost of manufacturing a car, he said.
"There are others that are much more costly for us and I can't just make you, as an Aussie consumer, pay more," Mr Devereux said.
He estimated the extra costs could stretch into millions of dollars a year.
General Motors' local operation spends about $60 million a year on steel and purchases 35 per cent of it from BlueScope.
The government has handed out billions of dollars in assistance to protect car jobs and expertise, as the industry struggles under the high Australian dollar and competition from cheaper imports.
Imported steel not available locally
Mr Devereux said almost all of the imported steel was not available from local suppliers. Customs said the dumping legislation did not allow it to protect one industry from paying the tariff.
Toyota Australia said it could not obtain the required grade of steel locally.
"The introduction of a tariff would have an impact on our costs and profitability," a Toyota spokesperson said. "We strongly believe that imported steel should be exempt from any new tariff if we cannot source the required product locally."
Australian Workers Union national secretary Paul Howes accused the car industry of hypocrisy given the billions it receives in government subsidies.
He said anti-dumping measures tackled illegal trade.
"I imagine GM would take anti-dumping action against car importers who are selling their vehicles at less than the cost of production," he said. "I don't see GM coming out and calling for dumping laws to be scrapped. It seems like they only have an issue with anti-dumping laws where it affects their prices."
One industry source suggested the steel used in car making was effectively carved out by a Customs recommendation of a zero rate tariff for a type of steel known as pickled and oiled hot rolled coil.
Ron Silberberg, a former managing director of the Housing Industry Association, said it was unfortunate that consequences for downstream industries were not considered and the process lacked transparency.
"The whole dumping methodology is an artificial construction," he said. "To all intents and purposes it's just a black box."
BlueScope's chief executive for Australia and New Zealand, Mark Vassella, said Customs had validated the company's claims.
"Every country we named, every manufacturer we named, has been found to be dumping hot rolled coil into Australia and injuring our business," he said.
BlueScope was confident of winning its other cases on coated steel. Across the three "dumped" types of steel, BlueScope had suffered injury worth $100 million in the past year, he said.
A D Coote's Mr Eidam accused BlueScope of not keeping up with the technology and failing on quality, saying this was why his company switched to imported steel.
"The BlueScope product is flawed and bowed whereas the stuff we get from overseas is nice and straight," he said.

I've just started to share our experiences with other bloggers on "how we start plants under lights".
Thought it might be useful for some. This link with pictures may be informative to look at. We like to keep it simple. :) Patsi Under Lights from start to finish |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by anniebetannie 5 (email@example.com) on Fri, Feb 13, 09 at 23:30
Again thanks Patsi....DH looked at the pictures and figured how to make mine. I made a mistake on my zone. It is 5 not 7. I did call our Extension Office and found out that May 1 is our safest date for planting regarding last frost. Are you or any others starting seeds yet?, and what are your starting. Annie |
Annie, Tried to e-mail you at earthlink. Didn't go through. E-mail me if you need more details. We're in Zone 7a and won't put anything out before Mothers Day. Husband put his tomato plants out late last year around the last week in May...no problem...just had fruits a week or two later than normal. We start most seeds come mid March. |
Your pictures are helpful,but where do you find someplace warm enough to germinate? Our house is never that hot. |
Hi Sip, We put up a shelf in our laundry room that is about 2 feet from the ceiling where the temps are higher since heat rises. You can always use heating pads if your not growing as many plants as we do. Or some people use the top of their frigerator. Try and find someplace up high it should work. You may want to get a room thermometer and lay it down next to your tray or trays. This way you'll know for sure if it's warm enough. Good luck, |
Great post! It really is amazing what those lights will do for seedlings. My confidence as a gardener has sky rocketed thanks to my t12s. |
I agree...it's amazing! It's also amazing how many people still rely on window light. :( We've been at it for 6 years and our method of growing under lights which I believe is common...works like a charm. |
I never realized how affordable a fluorescent light set up could be. I paid $10 for a 48 inch two bulb shop light and $8 for two t12 bulbs. A lot of gardening catalogs sell set ups that cost hundreds of dollars. Another reason I relied on window light was that I didn't realize how cool running and energy efficient the lights are. Live and learn I guess. |
I'm stunned by what they charge in the catalogs for a very small lighting set-up. But If you don't know any better or have hundreds to spend...I guess it's fine. Ours is expensive BUT for $250 we get a 5 metal shelves($50) and 10 double light fixtures($200). With that in mind..I can put 3 trays on each shelf times 5 is 15 trays. We grow alot of tomatoes and flowers! |

This was YEARS ago. I was a teen with my folks at WDW, and it was sprinkling out. I looked up and a raindrop fell in my eye. I yelped, Ah! My eye! My eye! And the guys behind us go, Ah! My liver, huh huh, my liver! Think Beavis and Butthead era :o)
More recently, as you can see in my sig, my son (in 2006) pointed as the monorail approached, and said (replace all R's with the W sound) 'Look Mom! It's the Comonorail!' He actually thought that's what it was called! But then again, he also called Denny's Benny's. It's been Benny's every since! Too cute!

Next round 2015 Belarus will compete in Europe/Africa Zone Group I again in 2015 after losing out in the promotion play-offs. Last round 4-9 February 2014 Once again without the services of Victoria Azarenka, Belarus still managed to top their round-robin pool by defeating Portugal, Turkey and Bulgaria. With Aliaksandra Sasnovich and Olga Govortsova entering the promotion play-off against Netherlands undefeated they were disappointed to both lose in straight sets to miss out on a place in the World Group II play-offs. History Belarus's best performances to date have been reaching World Group II in 1999 and 2012. Prior to 1991, Belarusian players competed under the USSR flag. Record Belarus's 5-0 victory over Estonia in 2011 set a new Fed Cup record for the most comprehensive win in a best-of-five rubbers tie (losing just 13 games).

In my previous submission to AMOF ("Saved From Jesus" - 4/23/06) I presented a hypothetical dialogue between an evangelist and a potential convert to the "faith". The article was designed to raise lots of questions and answer none of them, so I thought it would be prudent to at least answer the main question, simply: What is it that God is saving us from? Rather than torture you eternally I'll get right to the answer... it's Death.
Mainstream Christianity on the other hand answers the question thus: Eternal Hell. This thought is so pervasive that if someone were to suggest that Hell either doesn't exist as such, or that it exists but is not eternal, it is equivalent to suggesting that there is nothing that we need to be saved from, and therefore we don't need a Savior. Nothing could be further from the truth. We most certainly do need a Savior to save us from the "wages" of our sin:
Rom 6:23a (KJV) "For the wages of sin is death..."
Death is the consequence of sin, not eternal hell. Rom 6:23a is not saying anything new. It simply reiterates what God said right from the start, and here too God does not say that man will suffer eternal hell if he sins, but only that he will die:
Gen 2:17 (KJV) "But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die."
Christendom would have us believe that God is both potentially Your Worst Nightmare and the Savior all at the same time, both the problem and the solution, and asks us to love and trust this abusive father, or else. The consequent fear induced reaction is passed off as "faith". We are supposed to love our enemies while He burns them mercilessly forever. It is a contradiction, and the source of all this twisted thinking can be traced back to erroneous Bible translation - garbage in, garbage out. But God's justice is satisfied, not by tormenting people for sins that Jesus already paid for, but by that very payment, laying on Jesus: Isa 53:6b (KJV) "...the iniquity of us all."
Christendom would have us believe that Hell is separation from God, ignoring passages like Rev 14:10b (KJV) "...in the presence of the Lamb:" where the recipients of His wrath are everything but separated from Him. But it is death that threatens to separate us from God, leaving us in a state where we are unable to appreciate Him, and it is this problem that God will ultimately resolve, even if He has to use wrath to deal with stubborn clay. The final goal is to bring life to all, and abolish life's antithesis: 1 Co 15:26 (KJV) "The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." At all points along the way, no matter how bumpy the ride, God acts in accord with His will, which is to save all mankind. God does not "wish" that His creation would turn out okay - He demands it, because He "...worketh all things after the counsel of his own will" Eph 1:11b (KJV).
But let's assume just for a moment that Christendom is correct, that the wages of sin is eternal hell. If that were true, then there is an enormous problem that should cause every believer to shudder: Jesus has not yet paid for your sins! The simple fact of the matter is Jesus has not, nor ever could successfully pay the price of eternal hell. At best he might have gone through hell for several hours, maybe even several days, but definitely not the eternity that Christendom's theology requires. Thank God that the wages of sin is not eternal anything because no one could ever finish the job. No, the wages of sin is not eternal hell, it is death, and Jesus paid exactly the right price:
1Co 15:3-4 (KJV) "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"

With the transition to digital education, including the adoption of 1:1 computing, e-textbooks and mobile devices, it's easy to think that printers are a relic of paper-based education. But this is far from the truth. In this new digital realm, printers can be a vital ingredient in the educational process. As the classroom continues to evolve, the ways in which students and teachers use printers — and the access they need to them — will also change. This Center for Digital Education white paper highlights the printer's evolving role in the digital classroom and explains why it is critical in K-12 education for all students and teachers to have access to a printer.

Christmas Day Crotch Bomber Tied To Israel, FBI
February 11, 2010 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Jeff Gates, Salem-News.com
(TEMPE, Az.) – The Christmas Day "terrorist" is the latest in a series of staged incidents meant to make The Clash of Civilizations appear plausible and "the war on terrorism" rational.
The storyline does not hold together. Not even a little bit. As usual, the source of this media-fueled fear campaign traces directly to Tel Aviv-with a supporting role by the FBI.
How did a young Nigerian Muslim without a passport "slip through" security at Amsterdam's Schiphol airport? Not only did his itinerary feature an illogical travel route, he paid cash for a high-priced last-minute ticket and boarded without checked baggage. How?
ICTS International, the security screening company at Schiphol, was founded by former members of Shin Bet, Israel's civil security agency, and Israeli executives in charge of El Al security. ICTS had already proven its expertise in mounting this type of operation.
In December 2001, Richard "The Shoe Bomber" Reid "slipped through" ICTS security at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. Huntleigh USA, an ICTS subsidiary, shared responsibility for security at Logan International Airport in Boston where hijackers for two of the four 911 jets "slipped through" airport security. It gets better.
The Crotch Bomber told U.S. authorities that radical Yemeni cleric Anwar al-Awlaki counseled him on the incident. Born and raised in New Mexico, Al-Awlaki moved to Yemen in 2004 after advising the two 911 hijackers who trained in San Diego. He also advised U.S. Army Major Nidal Hasan who is charged with shooting 13 people at Fort Hood, Texas in 2009.
It's not yet clear whether FBI agents were monitoring the Nigerian while he too was advised by Al-Awlaki. If not, that would be an anomaly in a repetitive pattern of FBI complicity.
FBI agents not only monitored Major Hasan and Al-Awlaki before the Fort Hood shootings, they also monitored the San Diego hijackers while they were advised by Al-Awlaki. It gets better.
Though the Nigerian was foiled while trying to ignite 80 grams of PETN, an explosive sewn into his underwear, that amount was barely enough to dislodge the arm on his seat – of course that assumes it could have been ignited.
Without a blasting cap, this "terrorist incident" was doomed to failure even before he "slipped through" security. Could this get even better? Oh yeah.
We were told about his father alerting the C.I.A. station chief in Lagos. However we were not informed that his father, a banker, oversaw a Nigerian defense firm that hired Israeli Defense Forces personnel to train Nigerians – in security.
Nor were we told that, for decades, Nigeria has been a central hub for Israelis laundering the proceeds of their transnational organized crime. That's not all.
The Iraq War Connection
Four days after 911, San Diego special agent Steven Butler came to the San Diego home of Iraqi-American Munther Ghazal, the Iraqi closest to Saddam Hussein then living in the U.S.
That's the same day Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz proposed in a principal's meeting at Camp David that the U.S. should invade Iraq. Iraq?!
Agent Butler paid rent and cashed checks for the two San Diego hijackers while they were being advised by Al-Awlaki. What did Butler want to know? Was Ghazal funding Mel Rockefeller with whom he had traveled to Iraq in 1997.
While in Baghdad, they confirmed that Saddam Hussein had mothballed Iraq's WMD program after the 1991 Gulf War – and was prepared to negotiate his departure without this war. That was four years before 911. The FBI has yet to interview Mel Rockefeller.
Meanwhile, the usual suspects are once again profiting off the misery of both sides in a "Clash" that they played a key role in creating. It was Jewish Zionist Bernard Lewis who first coined the term, The Clash of Civilizations.
Only later was Harvard professor Samuel Huntington branded with that premise when his book by that name was published in 1996, five years before 911.
Israeli-American Michael Chertoff, former Secretary of Homeland Security (aka the rabbi's son), now promotes firms that manufacturer highly intrusive body scanners that are terrific for spotting crotch bombers unless, of course, an Israeli firm is in charge of security.
News reports suggest that the stock of body-scanning firms soared $3 billion in value after this latest "terrorist" incident. Imagine the glee among clients of the Chertoff Group.
Meanwhile the U.S. has been transformed from the wealthiest nation to the world's largest debtor. Nobel economist Joe Stiglitz projects a $3 trillion tab for a war based on fixed, flawed and outright fabricated intelligence – every cent of it borrowed, including $700 billion in interest.
Tel Aviv: The Common Source of Terror
That's not all. Controlling shares in ICTS are held by Menachem Atzmon, board chairman since 2004. While treasurer of Israel's long-dominant Likud Party, Atzmon was convicted of campaign finance fraud. His co-treasurer, Ehud Olmert, resigned as Prime Minister in 2008 after being acquitted of fraud amid multiple corruption charges.
Did I forget to mention that ICTS was also handling security for London's bus system when the U.K. was targeted for its terrorist attack? Did I neglect to note that six months prior to the Shoe Bomber's flight on American Airlines, Richard Reid was stopped at Schiphol while boarding an El Al flight to Tel Aviv? Shin Bet allowed him to board so he could be monitored in Israel.
Did the Israelis inform their loyal ally about Richard Reid? What do you think?
Remember the October 1983 truck bombing of the Marine Barracks in Beirut that left 241 Americans dead? A former Mossad case officer conceded they had a description of the truck. Did our ally tell us? What do you think?
Our withdrawal from Lebanon left the field open to those who specialize in displacing facts with what targeted populations (including our own) can be deceived to believe.
Recall our belief in Iraqi WMD? Iraqi ties to Al Qaeda? Iraqi mobile biological weapons laboratories? Iraqi yellowcake uranium from Niger? Iraqi meetings in Prague? All were false. All were traceable to Tel Aviv. Are you still having trouble connecting the dots?
As the U.S. sinks into bankruptcy, we are ridiculed abroad for failing to acknowledge the obvious: Americans have long been the target of a fraud operated by Israelis, pro-Israelis and those supportive of their goals for the region.
What better way to wage war on the U.S. than from within? How else can Israel expand except by duping its super power ally to wage wars for Greater Israel? Never mind the cost in blood and treasure. As an ally, the U.S. is easily portrayed as guilty by association.
Those promoting the Crotch Bomber scare are part of the problem. In the Information Age, this latest false flag operation is typical of how treason proceeds in plain sight yet, to date, with impunity. Those media outlets marketing this latest lie are an enemy within.

The Mythical European Umma
December 27, 2009 by TMO · Leave a Comment
By Khaled Diab, Guardian
Muslims in Europe are secretly amassing an arsenal of the deadliest in biological weaponry: the demographic time bomb. The first phase of the Muslim invasion – or should I say reinvasion – of Europe has already begun with the deployment of an expeditionary force of womb-men: a fearsome army of mutant ninja warriors whose function is to go forth and multiply. Their turbo-charged and perhaps even genetically modified uteruses mass produce the deadly biological agent which is currently being stockpiled in Muslim homes across the continent.
And their mission: to create Eurabia – or, better said, since many European Muslims are not Arabs, to turn the EU into the European Umma. Having been driven out of Europe once and unable to reconquer it through force of arms, those crafty and cunning Muslims are back to do it through the Trojan horse of immigration and reproduction.
Some dismiss this demographic time bomb as being far-fetched and as fantastical as Saddam Hussein's non-existent arsenal of WMD, but yet another smoking gun has been found in the Netherlands. Troubling evidence has emerged that Muhammad has become the most popular boy's name in the country's four biggest cities. And a similar situation is emerging in other European urban centres.
In fact, five centuries after the reconquest of Granada, that last Muslim stronghold, Eurabia has established its first de facto capital in Rotterdam. And when the number of Muhammads and other assorted Mohammedans become a majority over the coming century – as the great Bernard Lewis warned – they will form an army of mujahideen of Talibanesque horror which will subjugate the natives and make them live as second-class dhimmis under sharia law.
As far-fetched conspiracy theories go, the Eurabia myth is one of the most persistent and dangerous of recent years – and the Daily Telegraph fanned the controversy this month with its claims that it had carried out an investigation which revealed that the EU's Muslim population would jump from the current 4-5% to an improbable 20% by 2050.The six-paragraph article gives no indication of how the projections were arrived at, nor the assumptions upon which they were based. In fact, as the BBC pointed out in a piece debunking a popular YouTube hit on "Muslim Demographics", population projection is an inexact science. It cites, as an example, the projections made in the 1930s that the UK's population would fall to 20 million by the end of the 20th century.
Most projections that foresee a massive increase in Europe's Muslim population are based on certain assumptions which are hard to justify. They assume that recent immigration trends will continue indefinitely for decades to come, but this is unlikely as Europe continuously raises the immigration bar for non-EU citizens, and it is not far-fetched to expect that many European countries may call a halt to immigration or draw their future immigrants from certain more "desirable" countries. The projections also assume that European Muslims will continue to have a significantly higher fertility rate than the population at large. But evidence suggests that the fertility rates of Muslim women are gradually converging with those of the wider population. And there are signs that the fertility rate among the white population of some European countries, such as France, is recovering.
So, given that the only hard facts we can be sure of is that a small minority of about 4% of the EU's population is Muslim, why is this fear of a coming Eurabia so strong in certain quarters? Many of the biggest proponents of the Muslim demographic time bomb myth are cheerleaders of and apologists for US imperialism in the Middle East, such as Bat Y'eor and Bernard Lewis.
Some Europeans, particularly from conservative and Christian circles and the intolerant wing of liberalism, have fallen for the myth for a variety of reasons. One is the relatively rapid shift in western Europe towards multicultural, multi-ethnic and multi-religious societies in recent decades, which has caused a certain sense of alienation and insecurity, especially for those whose economic security has been undermined by neo-liberal economics and globalisation. Other reasons are the massive lifestyle and social changes. These have caused distress for traditionalists and people who still identify themselves as Christian: they have seen their religion die a slow death, while Islam seems to go from strength to strength.
Then, there is the plain old fear stoked by the overexposure given to the most intolerant Islamic fringe groups and individuals. Certainly, there are some European Muslims who want to live according to sharia and there is even a lunatic fringe who would like to see Europe incorporated into some fantastical global caliphate. But Muslims in Europe are not some unified, monolithic force. Not only are they ethnically diverse and from communities that are not the greatest fans of each other – consider the animosity between Moroccans and Algerians, for example – they are also as varied ideologically as the rest of the population.
Although Muslims tend to be more religious and conservative than the rest of society, there are also plenty of secular, non-practising, cultural and even non-believing Muslims. In addition, it is impossible to tell what kind of identities future European Muslims will have, but I suspect that the future cultural fault lines in Europe will not run along traditional religious lines, but will pit believers against non-believers, creating a kind unity of purpose between conservative Muslims and Christians intent on preserving faith in a "Godless Europe". While Eurabia is a fantasy, Europe is almost certainly going to become more diverse in the future, and so a debate is worth having about how to adapt to this reality and what constitutes citizenship in an increasingly mobile world.

These are custom built Cypress cabinets that I'm having a hard time deciding how to finish. I was going to use Waterlox but it turns them an amber/orangey color.
The wood has beautiful grain and I like the light color. What can I use on them. They're in a 106+ year old house so I don't want anything painted or contemporary. The floors are Brazilian Cherry that will be sealed with Waterlox. |

My architect showed me a sample of brown/coffee Cypress wood that I considered for kitchen cabinets. I really liked it - it looked like wenge but without the wood cuts. Depends on whether you are looking for something that dark. |
- Posted by sombreuil_mongrel (My Page) on Tue, Oct 13, 09 at 19:57
Maybe Watco oil would not darken the wood as much as Waterlox. You could apply a wipe-on satin poly over it for more water protection without looking plastic-y. Personally, I feel that cypress is the most sublime of all softwoods, and I would never stain it. The copper sink is very orange in places, it would seem, and I think that the waterlox finish would actually be perfect for the intended use. The color is going to mellow out over time. A penetrating finish is really the thing for cypress, as surface finishes, varnish included, tend to be prone to peeling. Casey |

I don't want to go really dark. The floor is Brazilian Cherry and very dark. The walls are very dark blue/black. I definitely want a penetrating stain. I got another piece of wood to play around with and I'm going to try mixing the stain with the Waterlox instead of putting straight stain. I'm going to check with the Benjamin Moore dealer here. They mixed a color to match the Brazilian Cherry that went on Mahogany and it's perfect. It's so hard making a decision because I only have one chance. I can't redo it like painting a wall over. The copper sink is actually very dark. The orange spots are a reflection of the flash. |

Student Scholarships and Research Assistantships
Anthropology majors and Classical Studies minors may apply for departmental awards to conduct independent research or to work with a faculty member. The goal of this program is to provide undergraduates with opportunities to learn how research is done and to gain professional experience in the field.
Projects include (but are not limited to): participation in archaeological excavations, cultural anthropological field studies, classical studies research abroad, field schools, travel to meetings where the student is presenting a paper, and independent library research involving travel or significant research off-campus. Students should work with a faculty advisor to complete the required documents.
Click on Scholarship Application or Research Assistantship Application to access forms online. Hard copy forms are also available in the department office.
The fall 2015 deadline for applications for student scholarships and assistantships is April 15, 2015.
The Awards Committee consists of the Department Chair and one elected representative each from Archaeology, Classical Studies, Cultural Anthropology, and Physical Anthropology. Three members present constitute a quorum for meetings.
The Committee solicits and evaluates applications from students and faculty for scholarships and research. Applications are considered on two deadlines each year: mid-April and mid-October. Because much research and associated travel falls in the summer, generally more funds will be awarded in April than October.
Students may receive no more than two awards. Requests may not occur on consecutive deadlines. All requests are evaluated; the act of submitting a request does not guarantee an award. No single criterion governs evaluation, but the Committee will rank proposals in descending order as follows:
- Student-initiated proposals and external studies;
- Student-initiated proposals that involve close collaboration with a faculty member
Applications must be received by the deadline, and on the departmental forms designed for this purpose.
Click on Scholarship Application or Research Assistantship Application to access forms online. Hard copy forms are also available in the department office.
The application must include the student's statement of interest and research, along with details of the student's program of study (course background, major/minor, GPA, career plans). Proposals that involve collaboration with or supervision by faculty require an associated proposal by that faculty member.
Award amounts will vary depending upon the project and student need. Generally, Scholarship awards will not exceed approximately $3,000, and Research Awards will not exceed $7,500 per academic year. Awardees must accept awards in writing (not by e-mail) within one week of notification.
At the end of the project for which funds are awarded, the recipient will make a presentation to the Department. Presentation setting, format and date will be determined by the Committee. Recipients who fail to comply with this requirement will be ineligible for future awards.

In "Families," a Tapestry of Faith program
There are few difficulties families can experience that are as devastating as having a member imprisoned. It is especially hard when the imprisoned member is a mother, father, or primary caregiver. Providing opportunities to build connections for families that are hurting in such a way could be a rewarding long-term project that would involve both Families participants and others in the congregation and community.
The exact nature of such a project could take many shapes. For instance, families whose mothers are imprisoned could be the focus. In this scenario, the project might be to host holiday celebrations (perhaps ones that are already part of your congregational calendar) and invite families. For example, you might invite families with absent mothers to a small party the week before Mothers Day, at which they can make cards and small gifts for their mothers. At such a party families could make picture frames, without glass, from foam or wooden sticks. The Families participants could then use an instant processing camera to take photos of the children and put the photos in the frames for children to present to their mothers.
Work with others in your congregation or community to design a project that actively engages the program participants and gives them an opportunity to interact with the prisoners' families in a safe way.
If you lack support for such a project, instead consider inviting a guest speaker who could talk to participants about the experiences of families having a head of household in prison. Ask the guest speaker if there is a way the youth could help and, if so, to offer a suggestion during the talk.
After the discussion or event, consider using the following questions to help process the experience:
