Need data on force needed to pull out lag bolts from ordinary studs.
Considering 1/4, 5/16, and 3/8 bolts, with 2 or 2 1/2 inches in the studs. |

Google found a useful link. John |
Here is a link that might be useful: lag bolt loading specifications
Thanks for that link. Two to three-hundred lbs per inch of depth is pretty darn strong! |

jbn, The bottom line is how many studs, and how well installed are they? It would be better to bolt to the rim joist. Is the ledger going to support a deck, a pergola...or a kitchen counter? steve |
The actual usable rating is from 1/8 to 1/10 of the ultimate strength. This makes up for variations in the wood and less than optimal installation. You also need to consider the stud flexing and what it will transfer the load to. |

in my experience, lags are not strong enough to hold railings in wood (if railings is what we are talking about). The force exerted by a 42" railing is very significant, as if you had a 42" crowbar, and will pull lags right out of all but the densest wood. |
I've demolished enough railings to agree with you there, it should be bolted, if that's what the app is. On the other hand, if it's a face plate for a deck being screwed through the outer sheathing to the outside wall studs, then I guess your only choice is lag screws (I haven't been back in N.America for long after an extended stay overseas, so I'm assuming a lag screw is a hex-headed self-tapping wood bolt/screw, just larger and heavier than what we'd just refer to as a screw?) |

Yes, "lag bolt" and "lag screw" mean the same thing, which is simply a giant hex-head screw designed for penetrating wood. They have an identity crisis because they have the leading edge of a screw and the trailing edge of most common bolts (See Wikipedia). But you raise a good point that some machine screws (notably in computers) also have hex heads, and they're not lag screws. Someone has probably defined a more precise distinction (e.g., anything above a #14). If they were truly a bolt, they would not be capable of self-tapping (they can, though for larger diameters a pilot hole of the commonly recommended size, drilled into a center punch, is well-advised), and they would be capable of receiving nuts (they are not). As for railings being easily destroyed, I can imagine. Fatigue failure (shake-shake-shake repetitive motion) on wood is a pretty low bar. One thing you can do is to screw (lots of screws) or liquid-nails a steel plate to the wood on both sides. Drill a hole the size of your bolt through the whole sandwich. Put a spring washer on your bolt, put the bolt through, and hit it with a second spring washer on the end. Top with a nice big nut (dome-shaped for safety, hex doughnut for easier installation). Curious to see what you'd all say about warped warehouse beams ... normal or not? |

Clearing clutter, getting organized, makes December less stressful
By Kristyne E. Demske
C & G Staff Writer
Once the stockings are hung by the chimney with care, the tree and halls are decked and the home is ready for Santa up on the rooftop, it can begin to look a lot like Christmas.
Or it can look like an episode of "Hoarders" on A&E.
But local experts have tips to get you in the holiday spirit without feeling buried under mounds of clutter and décor.
"Many times, we have all these keepsakes and memorabilia, and everybody wants to display them in the home. (But) you need to put a limited amount of that memorabilia out and then rotate it, and it gets a fresh look," said Karen Cynowa, a professional organizer with Time's Up in Rochester Hills.
She says when it's time to break out the holiday décor, the year-round items can go into storage.
"Put a lot of that away in a plastic bin because you have so much that comes out with the decorations," she said. "A lot of times, they just don't go with the whole ambience that you have."
Sometimes that means it's time to get rid of things in order to make room for holiday décor and guests, and to get a fresh start in the new year, she said.
Patrick Lipa, co-owner of College Hunks Hauling Junk in Berkley, said spring and summer are popular times for cleaning out homes, but when fall and winter hit, "people start to be indoors a little bit more, and that's how things start to accumulate."
But that's also the time when being able to park in the garage to get out of the weather becomes a priority.
He said his company hauls away almost everything, and it will also donate and recycle as much of the trash as possible so that customers don't have to worry that it will all end up in a landfill.
"Over 60 percent of everything we take, we're either recycling or donating," he said. "We definitely try to find a home for it."
Chris Nylen, general manager of Organize-It in Shelby Township, said purging is the first step to getting organized. The second step is to make sure there's a place for everything.
"That's where we come in," he said. "We sell all kinds of storage containers and racks. It gives you a place to put things so they're easy to find and they're organized."
He said drawer organizers, dividers and shelves are some of their most popular products because they keep clutter from taking over.
"We say that anytime you're able to find things more easily, it de-stresses your life, and the holidays are a stressful time for so many people," he said. "So it's just a matter of being able to find things easily and having them organized."
Nylen said one of the biggest months of the year for the store is January, when New Year's resolutions to get organized are made. But there's no reason not to get a jump on things before the season, he said.
"We get really, really busy and sometimes we run short on stock, so if you do it ahead of time, you make sure you get the items that you want," he added.
Having holiday décor organized — with different containers for wrapping paper, bows and ornaments — can make a difference in the experience of the season, as well.
"You can keep all your wrapping paper in one spot, so you're not having to look for things, run around the house like a mad person," Nylen said.
But getting prepared for guests sometimes takes more than just clearing off the countertops, Cynowa said.
If you prefer guests not wear shoes in the home, make sure the front closet is cleared out and stocked with an empty boot tray to catch the slush. She said it's also a good idea to clear out the family's coats and put them in another closet, then stock the entryway space with strong wooden hangers for everyone's coats.
Having overnight guests? Cynowa said it's important not to wait until the last minute to prepare.
"If you're organized with the whole process of who's coming into your space, that's going to eliminate the last-minute chaos," she said. "Part of being organized and eliminating the clutter on your mind for company … is to just stop for a minute and think ahead."
She recommends making a master list of items needed, so you're already prepared when you hit a store.
"It's all thinking ahead and just putting your head into it. Making your list ahead of time so that … when you're already in those stores, you won't forget you need these things," Cynowa said.

Errington baronets
There have been three baronetcies created for persons with the surname Errington, one in the Baronetage of England and two in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. One creation is extant.
The Stanley, later Stanley-Massey-Stanley, later Errington Baronetcy, of Hooton in the County of Chester, was created in the Baronetage of England on 17 June 1661 for William Stanley, the great-grandson of Sir William Stanley, of Hooton and Stourton, a member of the Stanley family headed by the Earl of Derby. The sixth Baronet assumed the surname Stanley-Massey-Stanley. The ninth Baronet married Mary Haggerston, great-niece and heiress of Henry Errington of Sandhoe House, Northumberland. Their eldest son, the tenth Baronet, represented Pontefract in Parliament. Their second son, Rowland Stanley, the eleventh Baronet, inherited the Errington estate in Northumberland and changed his name to Errington. The title became extinct on the death of the twelfth Baronet in 1893.
The Errington Baronetcy, of Lackham Manor in the County of Wiltshire, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 18 July 1885 for George Errington, Member of Parliament for Longford. The title became extinct on his death in 1920.
The Errington Baronetcy, of Ness in the County Palatine of Chester, was created in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom on 26 June 1963 for the barrister and Conservative politician Eric Errington. As of 2010[update] the title is held by his son, Colonel Sir Geoffrey Errington Bt OBE, the second Baronet, who succeeded in 1973. He is a Vice-President of the Standing Council of the Baronetage.

Larry Chillinsky is best known as the "Hot Dog Man" on the local Courthouse Square.
For four years, he has been the man who braved rain, sleet, snow and heat to provide visitors to the Bradley County Courthouse Square area a treat.
Only the best products are served with pride by the vendor, who has quite a background in the food industry.
Originally from sunny San Diego, Chillinsky packed up and moved his family to Tennessee more than 18 years ago.
He worked for a company in Etowah, then decided after the company closed operations to go into business.
"I just wanted to work for myself," Chillinsky said.
"It took a little bit, because I had to find something I could do," he added.
Chillinsky has prepared foods in a number of restaurants during his career.
He also prepared meals daily for some 200 residents in a California retirement community. He provided two meals per day to the residents.
From steakhouses to fast foods and even working as a short-order cook, Chillinsky learned his way and realized quality of product was a key to success.
He also made breakfast at the Los Angeles Fairgrounds and tens of thousands of Philly cheese steak sandwiches.
So, how did he get into the hot dog business?
"I saw a cart for sale in Chattanooga, and it finally came together," said Chillinsky.
Prior to purchasing his dog stand, Chillinsky was a disc jockey, providing music at parties and weddings.
Not a fan of hip-hop or rap music, he got out of that when music styles and tastes changed.
Chillinsky's hobbies include collecting and repairing video game machines — some vintage.
He and his family also have a new venture in the works.
The city of Charleston has opened its arms and welcomed Chillinsky's talents to the community.
"It has surprised me greatly," he said.
Lilly's sits on Highway 11 [Hiwassee Street], just before the bridge heading north into Calhoun.
Pizza, barbecue, nachos and cheese, chili and other sandwiches and sides — and of course, a variety of fresh, quality hot dogs — are being served.
"I still have the cart and plan on being at the Courthouse Square on certain days," Chillinsky said.
What is the most popular dog on the streets of Cleveland?
"The chili-cheese with slaw," he said.
Inside Lilly's, it is evident that Chillinsky likes his vintage video-game machines.
He will hand the children who visit Lilly's handfuls of quarters to play the games.
"The people of Charleston have appreciated what we have here so far," Chillinsky said.
He actually opened the establishment in mid-December.
"It has been great every day," he said.
Looking into the future, Chillinsky wants to make his new venture a family hangout where the kids and adults alike can have a good time, good food and entertainment.
"I want to make this place somewhere everyone can come and enjoy," Chillinsky said.
"My greatest reward is having someone say good things about what you are doing. I like honest opinions and look at them as positive input," he added.
"So far, I have new people walking through the door every day, and those who liked the hot dogs on the Courthouse Square and the residents of Charleston have also been repeat customers," Chillinsky said.
He plans on keeping the downtown Cleveland hot dog cart going on a limited basis as the new venture continues to grow.

Open source is being used to battle against global poverty. One excellent example is the Grameen Foundation's Mifos, an application for nonprofits to manage microfinance operations efficiently. Microfinance is a form of economic development whereby poor people, typically in developing countries, receive small loans to start small enterprises and get out of poverty. You may recall that Grameen's director, Dr Muhammad Yunus, won the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize for his microfinance work in Bangladesh. Although Grameen created Mifos, it has generously made the software available to everyone and is leveraging the open-source model industry-wide. Although Mifos has been around for a year, the latest news is that IBM will apply its expertise in finance and open source to improve the application.
The Linux-friendly Wolfram Research has taken a page from Adobe Acrobat's playbook by creating the new and free Mathematica Player runtime application, which is available now for download on Linux, Windows and Mac OS platforms. People with a licensed copy of Mathematica 6 can upload their Mathematica notebook files for processing to the new Publish for Player Web service, after which the notebook files will run in the Player. The end result is that you do not need a full version of Mathematica just to view documents as in the past. Also in the pipeline is the non-gratis Mathematica Player Pro for viewing interactive Mathematica documents and other functionality.
Talend has two new developments this month: its Open Studio open-source data-integration application was upgraded to version 2.2; and it released the Activity Monitoring Console/Personal Edition. First, Open Studio Version 2.2, which has more than 150 connectors available, now offers a number of new specialized connectors, as well as event-based action triggering and SOA functionality that enables exposure of data-integration processes as Web services. Furthermore, Open Studio takes advantage of recent improvements in Eclipse v3.3. Second, Monitoring Console/Personal Edition is a new centralized tool for monitoring the distributed execution of all data-integration jobs. It provides notifications upon failure or error as well as the ability to analyze statistics and trends and detect potential execution bottlenecks before they occur.
In other integration news, CorraTech announced OPENSUITE, a Java-based, open-source application that will enable business process and data integration across a range of open-source applications. OPENSUITE is currently in pre-beta. The aim is to integrate CRM, ERP, content/document management, messaging and project management. Organizations can implement cross-application business processes, preserve intrasession context while working with multiple applications, create single sign-on access for multiple applications and reduce redundancy introduced by the complexity of integration across applications. Using an SOA approach and supplying middleware layer functionality, OPENSUITE is distributed with a number of packaged business processes, called Business Process Packs. The first Pack will support CentricCRM, KnowledgeTree, Openbravo and Zimbra.
Despite the crush of Linux information out in Internetlandia, having an organized, distro-specific book on hand when trouble or confusion strikes is sanity insurance. The upgraded openSUSE Unleashed by Michael McCallister and Sams Publishing is the latest in the wide-ranging Unleashed series of comprehensive technology reference guides. Based on openSUSE 10.3, Unleashed covers just about everything you'd like to do with your OS, from installing and administering to working with standard desktop applications and setting up networks and servers. The companion DVD includes openSUSE 10.3 with five CDs worth of goodies, and on-line updates are available. Unleashed is recommended for intermediate to advanced users.

As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

The winner ("winner") of the annual Bad Sex in Fiction award has been announced! Manil Suri takes it with his novel, The City of Devi, and this description:
"Surely supernovas explode that instant, somewhere, in some galaxy. The hut vanishes, and with it the sea and the sands – only Karun's body, locked with mine, remains. We streak like superheroes past suns and solar systems, we dive through shoals of quarks and atomic nuclei. In celebration of our breakthrough fourth star, statisticians the world over rejoice."
Given that erotica is ineligible for the coveted (or not) award, have you read a worse sex scene this year?

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 Romeo!
Facts about Romeo
- Breed: Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier Mix
- Color: Silver & Tan (Yorkie Colors)
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Male
Romeo's Info...
I am already neutered, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
My name is Romeo and I am about 2 years old
I only weight about 12 lbs and am the biggest loverboy on earth. I am
such a happy go lucky dog that just wants to have fun. I am pretty
much house trained. I like other dogs and cats are ok too - except I
do like to chase them some. Not sure why they don't like that - I
just want to have fun with them. Anyway, if you want Mr. Personality
come meet me! And look at my grin - how can you resist?
I am up to date on my shots and neutered. Adoption fee is $125.
Please email us to find out which adoption event Romeo will be attending this weekend! Locations are listed below.
Other Pets at Buster's Friends
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Romeo, a Houston Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier for sale in Houston, or seeking a Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier dog from a breeder in Houston.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Houston 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 Houston 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 Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier breeders who help with Yorkie, Yorkshire Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Houston paves the way for another one to be saved.

GM may face US$918-million loss due to suit stemming from bankruptcy
General Motors may see a loss of US$918 million should a bankruptcy judge rule certain hedge funds were favoured over other investors during the automaker's 2009 restructuring. A trust representing a number of unsecured creditors has sued to undo a lock-up agreement that saw hedge funds receive around US$367 million while other creditors were left to recover a slim fraction of their original investments. The creditors claim the agreement was unfair and that it took place after after the bankruptcy filing. That means the deal would have been subject to scrutiny by bankruptcy courts.
But both GM and the hedge funds maintain the lock-up agreement was sealed before the bankruptcy took place, meaning it isn't subject to judge approval. Judge Robert Gerber held several days of trial between August and October and a ruling is expected early this month. Should Gerber rule in favor of the trust, GM will have to pay up on a loan of almost US$1 billion owed by GM Canada to a Nova Scotia lender.

Hi, I would appreciate any advice! I am thinking about buying an Ikea Pax wardrobe. (I have just moved into a newly renovated house, in Belgium, where there are no built-in closets, and all our clothes are in boxes or hanging on racks.) My bedroom measures 314cm wide by 360cm long. The Pax would go on the 314cm wall opposite the bed. Should I get a 300cm-wide one so as to make maximum use of the space? Or would that be too massive, squat and overwhelming? I would order the 201cm height (not 236, which would barely fit under the ceiling). It would cover most of the lovely apple-green wall. (The wall behind the bed is also green, the side walls are white, but I was thinking that if some of the doors of the Pax were mirrored, it woudl reflect the green from the bed wall.) There would be abouta meter of space between the end of the bed and the wardrobe. I'm thinking normal hinged doors instead of sliding ones, which I've had trouble with before. Any opinions about how to organize the inside of the wardrobe? I had one in a rented house that included the trouser hangers and wire "drawers" and know I don't want those. I'm thinking just hanging bars, with one area for shirts, another for longer clothes like dresses, and solid drawers, and a shoe rack. Thank you for your input! |

Whether it looks crowded or not depends on what else you would have in the room. If you only have a couple of small nightstands, the bed and the wardrobe it wouldn't look crowded at all. I think if it were me I would go for the bigger one that covers the entire wall and put everything in there, rather than bring in a lot of other furniture. One way to visualize how it would look is to measure off the 68 CM. that would be taken up by the depth of the wardrobe and put tape on the floor. Now imagine a wall there--that is how it would look with the wardrobe. |

My two cents on IKEA wardrobes: In your concern about width, don't overlook the height! We bought two of these for our apartment in Switzerland. The height of our room was greater than the height of the wardrobes but we failed to take into account the assembly of the units. After they were built on their backs on the floor, they were too tall (in the hypotenuse) to tilt up to standing. The store assemblers were great (since we bought an entire 3-bedroom apartment full of furniture in one swipe.) They told me which units WOULD fit, dismantled the PAX units, returned them and brought them back the next day. I don't remember the name of the shorter units, but thank goodness they were available. Like you, there were no bedroom closets in this brand new apartment. |
For my benefit and sharing with others who are metric-challenged: 314cm wide by 360cm long = a room about 10 x 12 feet. You don't mention the depth, but honestly, I don't think you will gain any visual space by getting a smaller size. |
Thank you for your comments, everyone! I should have put the measurements in non-metric as well, and that's a good point about raising them into position after assembly (I'm also going to let the Ikea guys do it, I figure they can do it much faster and better). I hope the bed doesn't have to be moved out of the room first! The depth is 58 cm or about 28 inches. |

ORIGINAL ARTICLE Year : 2010 | Volume : 1 | Issue : 4 | Page : 205--207 Anti-inflammatory activity of Shirishavaleha: An ayurvedic compound formulation Shyamlal Singh Yadav1, Galib1, B Ravishankar2, PK Prajapati1, BK Ashok2, B Varun2, 1 Department of Rasashastra and Bhaishajya Kalpana Including Drug Research, Institute for Post Graduate Teaching and Research in Ayurveda, Gujarat Ayurved University, Jamnagar - 361 008, Gujarat, India 2 Pharmacology Laboratory, Institute for Post Graduate Teaching and Research in Ayurveda, Gujarat Ayurved University, Jamnagar - 361 008, Gujarat, India Correspondence Address: The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory activity of Shirishavaleha prepared from two different parts of Shirisha (Albizia lebbeck Benth.), viz. the bark (Twak) and the heartwood (Sara). The activity was screened in the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema model in albino rats. The raw materials were collected and authenticated in the university and the trial formulations were prepared by following standard classical guidelines. Randomly selected animals were divided into four groups of six animals each. The test drugs were administered orally at a dose of 1.8 g/kg for 5 days. Phenylbutazone was used as the standard anti-inflammatory drug for comparison. Between the two different test samples studied, the formulation made from heartwood showed a weak anti-inflammatory activity in this model while that made from the bark produced a considerable suppression of edema after 6 h. It appears that the bark sample would be preferable for clinical use.

"Open government" used to carry a hard political edge: it referred to politically sensitive disclosures of government information. However, over the last few years, this traditional meaning and the boundaries between the technologies of open data and the politics of open government have blurred. In fact, it has shifted toward the open technologies.
"Open government" used to carry a hard political edge: it referred to politically sensitive disclosures of government information. Over the last few years, however, this traditional meaning and the boundaries between the technologies of open data and the politics of open government have blurred. In fact, it has shifted toward the open technologies.
Open technologies involve sharing data over the Internet, and all kinds of governments can use them, for all kinds of reasons. Recent public policies have stretched the label "open government" to reach any public sector use of these technologies. Thus, "open government data" might refer to data that makes the government as a whole more open (that is, more transparent). It might equally well refer to politically neutral public sector disclosures that are easy to reuse, but that may have nothing to do with public accountability. Today a government can call itself "open" if it builds the right kind of website — even if it does not become more transparent or accountable. This shift in vocabulary makes it harder for policy-makers and activists to articulate clear priorities and make cogent demands.
Having Harlan Yu and David G. Robinson, the authors of The New Ambiguity of 'Open Government', as presenters, this BBL will provide a platform for a discussion on the approach toward "open government" suggested by the authors: separating technological from political "openness" – in another words, separating the idea of adaptable data from that of transparent politics. What is the implication to our work with our client countries and to our open development agenda?
Harlan Yu is a Ph.D. candidate in Computer Science at Princeton University, and an affiliate of its Center for Information Technology Policy. His primary research areas are information privacy, security, and open government. He has extensive hands-on experience at the intersection of technology and policy, including work at Google in both engineering and public policy roles, at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, and at the U.S. Department of Labor, where he helped develop and implement its open government plan. He holds an M.A. in Computer Science from Princeton and a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences from UC Berkeley.
David Robinson is a Knight Law and Media Scholar in the Information Society Project, and a third year JD candidate, at Yale Law School. Before going to Yale, he served as the first Associate Director of Princeton University's Center for Information Technology Policy, where he ran the Center's operations and developed its interdisciplinary research programs. He has published scholarship on Internet-enabled government transparency, and on digital copyright and trademark issues. He holds bachelors degrees in philosophy from Princeton and Oxford, where he was a Rhodes Scholar.

GRAM PARSONS: THE COMPLETE REPRISE SESSIONS Singer-songwriter Parsons who died of a drug overdose in 1973 gets the
royal treatment with this three-disc collection, featuring remastered
versions of 1973's GP and 1974's Grievous Angel, plus unreleased tracks
and interviews. The set is co-produced by Emmylou Harris, a frequent
Parsons collaborator whose voice provides the sweet counterpart to his
mournful tone on both of these albums. With no new Ryan Adams record on
the horizon, this more than fills the void. (Out June 20)
TURTLECAMPER Only four inches tall and not the speediest mode of transport,
Turtlecamper was born to chill. The vagabond reptile from San

WIRE EDUCATION An influence on bands like Elastica and Sonic Youth, Wire continue to

trademark rapid-fire masterpieces like ''Mr Suit'' and ''Field Day for the
Sundays'' hold up extremely well nearly three decades later and if you

Take Two for October 3, 2012
Are banks changing their fraudulent lending practices?
Corey Bridwell/KPCC
Occupy LA supporters hold up a "Stop Foreclosures!" sign outside of the BNY Mellon Bank during today's press conference.
Six months ago, the banking industry reached a $25 billion settlement with the government. The five biggest banks agreed to the payout after investigators uncovered an industry-wide practice of using fraudulent paperwork to process foreclosures.
So-called "robo signing" resulted in estimated thousands of people losing their homes.
The multi-state settlement requires lenders to change the way they handle their customers, specifically, banks need to communicate more directly with people who are trying to stay in their homes.
Now that the settlement is in full effect, are the banks holding up their end of the deal?
We talk to Katherine Porter, the UC Irvine law professor appointed to oversee California's share of the settlement.

One thing that's been on my wish list for the 6 years my wife and I have had out hot tub is a towel warmer. We soak pretty much every night from October through April and rarely use the tub in the warmer months. I have a row of 6 wrought iron hanging plant holders that we use to hold robes, but when the air temp is 10 degrees, the towels get a tad bit chilly. Warm towels, while not a necessity, would be a nice little luxury.
I've looked online for outdoor towel warmers, but they tend to start at around $2,000, have more features than I want or need, and no one seems to have them in stock. At $2,000, warm towels is a luxury I can't afford. I decided to make my own. I figure a simple wood box with a small 150 watt strip heater (or even a light bulb) in the bottom under a false floor would do the trick. Before I reinvent the wheel, I was wondering if anyone else made their own warming box. If so, does it work OK? Is there anything you would change about it? Joe |

That might work. I hadn't considered one designed for indoor use, but I guess I could carry it out when needed and plug it into a GFCI receptacle. It only holds two large towels, though. Most of the time it's just my wife and me, but occasionally my stepdaughter or another couple (or two) join us. At least buying one off the shelf, I'll have it to use. Making one, who knows when I'd get around to it. I'm a bit of a procrastinator. For example, last spring one of the pump/motor units was going bad. Since we rarely use the tub in warm weather, I just cut the power and figured I'd fix it when I had a chance. By mid-summer, I figured the water must be getting pretty disgusting, but was afraid to look. By late summer I had built up enough courage to take a peek. My jaw dropped when I saw there was no water in it at all. I added water, only to discover it was pouring out a pump seal. I still didn't want to deal with it, as it's really shoehorned in with other components in front of it, so procrastinated some more. Well, it's been getting down to around 25 degrees at night lately, so if I didn't want the water that remains in the lines to freeze and cause major damage, I thought I'd better get on it. I just placed the order for a new pump/motor unit a half hour ago. That first soak next week is going to feel extra nice. Joe |

Aurora theater shooting: New lawsuit charges Century 16 owner Cinemark with negligence
Last month, three survivors of the Aurora theater shooting filed lawsuits against Cinemark, owner of the Century 16, where the July 20 massacre took place. Cinemark has filed to dismiss these claims -- but another has just arrived. Marc Bern, whose New York law firm has won a big settlement on behalf of 9/11 first responders, is suing on behalf of several high-profile survivors who feel Cinemark is guilty of negligence. Details and multiple documents below.Marc Bern.
The plaintiffs in the suit, filed in Arapahoe County District Court (as opposed to U.S. District Court, where the other complaints now reside), include a number of people you've met in this space. Among them are Farrah Soudani, who got an assist from theCHIVE.com to help defray enormous medical costs associated with the serious injuries she sustained, and Yousef Gharbi, a teenager shot in the head during the assault.Farrah Soudani in a photo supplied by theCHIVE.com.
Another plaintiff is Mike White, Sr., who was at the theater with his son, Mike White, Jr., during the fateful screening of The Dark Knight Rises. The elder White wasn't physically injured, but his namesake suffered severe wounds.
As we've reported, the two previous suits -- the first jointly filed by Denise Traynom and Brandon Axelrod, the other by Joshua Nowlan, all of whom sustained injuries in the attack -- argue that because of past incidents at the Century 16, including "at least one shooting, involving gang members," plus assaults and robberies, the theater should have had security personnel on hand for the Dark Knight's midnight premiere. The complaints also take Cinemark to task for failing to have alarms that would have alerted employees after Holmes allegedly blocked open the exit door in order to arm himself.
Similar themes are struck in the new suit, which arrives under the auspices of Napoli Bern Ripka Shkolnik & Associates, LLP, a firm that secured an $816.5 million settlement in the aforementioned 9/11-related matter. The "General Allegations" section maintains that the Century 16 "posed an unreasonably dangerous risk to paying customers such as Plaintiffs because Defendants had failed to ensure that the subject premises were safe and secure for its paying customers and were free of the violent crime and the risk of violent crime."
Continue to read more about the suit, as well as to see a video of the news conference and the complete documents.

This is the Three Tuns, 79 Commercial Rd. (East side of Wolsey Rd)
A public house is shown at this location on the 1932 valuation map. and also on the 1884 OS map. It stood to the west at the junction of Commercial Rd and Wolsey St.
It's still shown on maps at least as late as 1964; by the 1984 sheet it's been demolished, so evidently closed between those dates.

I've been a regular visitor to the parks since I was 7 but this spring I'll be making my first trip with both of my kids. My son is 3 and my daughter will be turning 1 for our trip. I'm guessing that there will be some rides that the 3 year old will want to go on that that we may want my daughter to sit out for. When I was a kid I remember some sort of parent swapping for rides that my little sister couldn't ride yet where each parent would get a turn riding with me but only had to stand in line once. Having not been in this situation yet I'm curious if this still happens and if so if there is anything special that needs to be done in advance.
Has anyone had any experience with this?

It's that time of year, north winds howling, water temps dropping and water levels falling. Not a bad thing for us in Bayou Dularge just a little bit of transition period, fishing goes on here year round. At the beginning of winter as the fronts start coming through the water temps are up and down, Trout fishing can be really good one day and bad the next. But one thing we can always count on is our great Redfishing! After about a month of this the water temps get down and settle out and the Trout move in to their winter holes and it's game on every day, good or bad weather!
Last year I had some of my best trips in Jan and Feb, most people don't realize this and don't book trips? We fish anyway! If you can handle a short cold boat ride it will usually mean a quick limit of big Trout. Then you either head in for coffee or stick around a little longer for a limit of Redfish.
I love fishing from my Xpress year round but, this time of year is where it really shines. We deal with low water all year down here, we call 4 to 5 feet of water deep holes! So when the north wind blows hard for a few days and pushes 3 feet of water out you can get yourself in real trouble! Especially if it drops a foot or 2 while you are fishing. In my Xpress all I need is a few inches of water over soft mud and I can jump on plane with 3 or 4 people on board and run out of the marsh!
So break out the winter gear and come on down and "Get You Some"! Great Trout fishing and the best time of year for sight fishing for Redfish!

Jake will perform some selections from his self-titled album, produced by and featuring William Tyler. Acclaimed Durham guitarist Daniel Bachman will also play a special solo set for the occasion. Now a Durham resident, Fussell grew up in Columbus, GA.
As Jake explains it, "the Southern half of the Georgia-Alabama border follows the Chattahoochee River, which cleaves Columbus from its decidedly less reputable neighbor, Phenix City, Alabama. Georgia's second city is the hometown of 'Mother of the Blues' Ma Rainey and novelist Carson McCullers, but it was local hillbilly duo Darby and Tarlton's 1927 hit 'Columbus Stockade Blues' that first immortalized Columbus in popular culture. Back in their day, if you ended up in lockup in Columbus, chances are you did your dirtiest deeds across the river."
Jake is the son of Fred C. Fussell, a folklorist, curator, and photographer who hails from Phenix City. Fred's fieldwork took him (sometimes with Jake) across the Southeast documenting traditional vernacular culture, which included recording blues and old-time musicians with fellow folklorists George Mitchell and Art Rosenbaum, as well as collaborating with American Indian artists, which eventually led to Jake's graduate research on Choctaw fiddlers.
As a teenager, Jake played and studied under elder musicians in the Chattahoochee Valley, including Piedmont blues legend Precious Bryant ("Georgia Buck") and Alabama bluesman George Daniel ("Rabbit on a Log"). He later accompanied Etta Baker in North Carolina, studied with Will Scarlett and Steve Mann in Berkeley, earned a degree in Southern Studies from Oxford (Mississippi), recorded and toured with Rev. John Wilkins, and, last year, met up with acclaimed artist William Tyler to begin recording his first solo album. The album drops on January 27th, and we can't wait to hear it. You can listen to a single of "Raggy Levy" here.
This lecture is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.

And fashion folk here are relishing the prospect of a model first lady, as speculation swirls a February wedding could be in the offing.
"It's very 'our times,'" said Karl Lagerfeld. "Carla is great: chic, modern, speaks many languages, perfectly educated, beautiful. I see only quality."
Sarkozy's office had no comment Monday on a report in the Journal du Dimanche citing Feb. 9 as the date for the couple's nuptials. The paper also said Bruni gave Sarkozy, a fan of luxury watches, a Patek Philippe as a promise gift in exchange for the ring.
The courtship between Sarkozy, who divorced his second wife, Cecilia, last fall after only several months in office, has attracted torrents of media coverage in France — with some pollsters citing the president's topsy-turvy private life as a factor explaining a recent dip in his approval ratings. Yet designers and other observers praised the pairing.
"I loved the Chiracs, but politics are like fashion: It's about change and there has to be a first lady in a place like the Elysée Palace. Why not such a beautiful one?" Lagerfeld asked. "In life, she is chic and modern the way she is."
"She would be the ideal first lady of France: She is like a heroine out of a novel, remarkable and wonderful," said Jean Paul Gaultier.
"I think the idea of having such a good-looking, stylish woman as France's first lady is brilliant," agreed designer Giambattista Valli. "It would also be amazing to see the French embrace a foreigner [in that role]."
"She's gorgeous, she has a great sense of style and she has her own mind. Every fashion industry worldwide could use someone like her as their country's first lady," added Robert Ferrell, director of Marilyn Agency, which has the Italian singer on its roster.

We have a woodchuck once again. The den at the corner of three yards seems to have been uninhabited for a few years, but something has been eating my asters, boltonia, and coneflowers, and the other evening I saw him. At least, I hope it's a him--last time it was a VERY BIG mother and there were 11 of them, including several litters that never left home. Haven't had woodchucks since we got together with our neighbors and had them all trapped (the only legal means of control around here). Oh well. He has good taste--my plants are the only natives around, and he obviously loves them. Last night he absolutely leveled a square yard of boltonia. They got too tall last season, and I was intending to pinch them, but not quite so soon . . .
As for the black flies. I never knew that we have them here in NJ, but I've been seeing some small black flies and getting extremely large, extremely itchy bites all around my hairline, just like you get from black flies in the Adirondacks or Maine. Horrible, and it never happened here before. Are there black flies in Bergen County? |

ElaineNJ, Please share a photo of your incisor friend if you can. Plus you can add the leveled boltonia. Should Wilma or Woodfro (and offspring) relish that vegetation, will see if it occurs in Wisconsin. |

Black flies - is that why I am itching this year??? All around my hairline I am so itchy, never had this happen in other years. also had my first tick! Gardening season is definately here!! |
Don't send the flies my way - but we've had ticks out here since March, so maybe it all evens out in the end. |

More reviews by hellokittyfan1974
I really like the scent of this and the fact that it's a dual beauty product.You can use this as shampoo, shower gel and bubble bath. It's a nice product overall but I'm just not thrilled about the price. It's almost $20 for only 8 fl which is way overpriced in my opinion.
Love this for hair shampoo and shower gel, it smells lovely and makes my skin and hair fab - with the conditioner. The only thing is it is v expensive and I wish it came with a pump bottle - hence the 4 lippies
I love the scent of Amazing Grace! I use this as a body wash, not a shampoo, because I want t shampoo for my specific hair type. It is very expensive, but I believe it is worth it for the scent!
More reviews by MadamButterfly75
Love this product, leaves you feeling so clean and smells great. I use it with my clarisonic face and body and its even better.
So expensive, but smells so refreshing. Doesn't leave any film behind, either. Really drying on the hair, so I add conditioner to the mix.
Agree with the low reviews on this...And I got this as a sample. No lather, barely any scent. Boring, ho hum....What's all the excitement about??
Amazing grace is my scent and I really don't see myself changing anytime soon. I get complimented on my scent often and I love that the scent lingers on my clothes and even makes the dryer smell good.
However, all that being said - this contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate which does not agree with my skin. I have to use it on the lower half of my body (arms and chest are somewhat acne prone.) I hate when they show on QVC the lathering quality of this. I'm like, seriously. SLS is a cheap ingredient and irritates the skin. Also the first ingredient is water. I mean c'mon! I love Amazing Grace so I have to overlook these things but I always thought Philosophy was more into natural type products. SLS is not natural!
4 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
More reviews by myolderbrother
I do like this scent as a shower gel. It is clean and fresh and light and is like soap magnified. This product doesn't lather very much but it is refreshing showering with this product.
I adore this shower gel. The smell is light and heavenly and it's gentle on my skin. It's very pricey, and for that reason I don't use it daily, but it's a nice treat. Other reviews are correct, it doesn't lather much. However, I don't mind it so much since it gives me a nice light scent on my skin after I dry off.

Dime Q&A: Rony Seikaly Talks LeBron, Miami Heat & DJing
Before Dwyane Wade, Chris Bosh & LeBron James took Miami by storm, there was one man that ran South Beach. And his name was Rony Seikaly. Averaging 16 points, 10 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game during his career with the Heat, the man nicknamed "The Spin Doctor" (due to his trademark low-post spin moves), is still considered a living legend. Nowadays, Seikaly has traded in his spin moves on the court for spinning on the turntables, as he is an up-and-coming DJ/Producer who recently signed with Subliminal Records. Yesterday, we got up with Miami's first ever draft pick to talk about LeBron, the Miami heat and life in the world of DJing. Read More »

Scenario #1: Bullying on the playgroundA bully and his/her two friends are surrounding a child alone on the playground and making fun of his/her haircut. Another couple of children are watching from a short distance away but they aren't sticking up for him/her.
Invite one child at a time to come and stand in his/her shoes while others stand silently in the shoes of those in the scene.
Invite the child in the shoes to say what the target feels, and what he/she wants. It may help if they all start by saying, "This is what I feel... " "This is what I need or want... "
Allow a few more volunteers to stand in his/her shoes.If you like, ask the bystanders to say what they feel and what they want as well. If the situation feels safe and you believe the children will be serious and respectful you can ask the children in the bully roles to say what they think those characters are feeling.
Scenario #2 — Picked last Children are picking teams for a softball game. The last two children are left. Set out shoes for a few children on each team and two children left.
Invite children to come and stand in their shoes and say what they feel, and what they want. When everyone is done you can ask them to reflect on how they might act differently after feeling empathy.
Scenario #3 — New child in classA new child comes to school from a foreign country. His/her English is not very good yet and he/she has a strong accent. When the teacher introduces him/her to the students and he/she says hello, my name is ____ a few of the other children laugh quietly.
Set up chairs as in a classroom and put the shoes of the new child under one of the chairs in the back. Put a few other pairs of shoes around for the children who laughed and a few for those who didn't.
Again invite volunteers to stand in their shoes and to answer the questions:"What do I feel?" "What do I want or need?"
When everyone is done, ask them to reflect on how they might feel or act differently after feeling empathy.
Scenario #4 - Looking differentThere is a child who comes to school who has to wear a brace, thick glasses or has something about their appearance that is different. No one sits next to the child in the cafeteria at lunchtime.
Ask the children to help set up the chairs or tables and the shoes to create this scene and ask for volunteers to step into the shoes. Try to get as many children as possible to try on the shoes of this child.
Scenario #5 — Little brother or sisterA boy or girl wants to play alone with his/her friend but a little brother or sister wants to tag along. The little sibling is on one side of a door crying. The big brother or sister and friend are on the other side.
Set up the shoes and let people try on the roles. When everyone is done you can ask them to reflect on how they might feel or act differently after feeling empathy.
Create your own scenarios that feel age-appropriate for the group.

The Robertson Cup first came into existence in July of 1978 when it was first awarded to the Champions at the first National Tournament for girls box lacrosse held in White Rock, B.C. The White Rock Titans club gathered together a hardworking committee and secured G&B Sports as one of the major sponsors. It was this enterprising company that donated the trophy. Bonnie Allen of G&B Sports contacted Dorothy Robertson to ask if the trophy could be named for her as emblematic of women who are involved, participating and working for lacrosse. The Cup was awarded to the National Girls Box Lacrosse Champions in 1978 in White Rock, 1979 in Nova Scotia, 1980 in Montreal, 1981 in Hamilton and 1982 in Mississauga. With Canada' participation at the first World Cup for women's lacrosse in Nottingham, England in 1982, the emphasis and interest shifted from the box game to the international field game for women. The Robertson Cup has been awarded annually since 1983 to the Canadian Senior Women's Field Lacrosse National Champions.This is formerly the G and B Sports Club Trophy used for Women's "Box Lacrosse" from 1978-82. The overall tournament championship was won by the USA from 1983-85.

Secretary of State probes MECA board member residency
UPDATED 10:15 PM CDT Sep 13, 2013She serves on the board overseeing the CenturyLink Center, but there are questions over whether she's legally qualified to do so.
Video TranscriptSHE SERVES ON THE BOARD OVERSEEING THE CENTURYLINK CENTER... AND THERE ARE QUESTIONS OVER WHETHER SHE'S LEGALLY QUALIFIED TO DO SO. NEBRASKA'S SECRETARY OF STATE IS ASKING QUESTIONS ABOUT JAMIE GUTIERREZ-- AND THE ADDRESS SHE LISTED ON A VOTER REGISTRATION CARD. GOOD EVENING, I'M JEREMY MASKEL. THE BY-LAWS - GOVERNING THE - 'METROPOLITAN ENTERTAINMENT AND CONVENTION AUTHORITY' BOARD SAY ITS MEMBERS MUST BE -- 'RESIDENT ELECTORS' -- OF DOUGLAS COUNTY. AND JAMIE GUTIERREZ'S RESIDENCY IS IN QUESTION. K-E-T-V NEWSWATCH SEVEN'S TONY CORNETT IS LIVE WITH THE BIG STORY AT SIX. OMAHA CITY ATTORNEY PAUL KRATZ SAYS HE BELIEVES MECA BOARD MEMBER JAMIE GUTIERREZ LIVES IN BELLEVUE, OUTSIDE DOUGLAS COUNTY. NOW-- ACTING ON A COMPLAINT BY A DOUGLAS COUNTY MAN, NEBRASKA'S SECRETARY OF STATE WILL INVESTIGATE WHETHER HER VOTER REGISTRATION IS LEGIT. IN A LEGAL OPINION SENT TO THE MAYOR LAST WEEK, CITY ATTORNEY PAUL KRATZ ADDRESSED THE GUTIERREZ RESIDENCY QUESTION. AND THE MAYOR SAYS NEBRASKA SECRETARY OF STATE JOHN GALE, ENDORSES IT.(Jean Stothert, Omaha Mayor, "He said that Paul Kratz wrote an excellent legal opinion, and we agree,") KRATZ NOTES GUTIERREZ PURCHASED THIS 35-HUNDRED SQUARE FOOT HOUSE ON BELLEVUE BOULEVARD FOUR YEARS AGO. HER DRIVER'S LICENSE SHOWS THIS ADDRESS. SHE AND HER HUSBAND BOUGHT A CAR LAST YEAR USING THIS ADDRESS. BUT SHE TOLD THE CITY OF OMAHA 'THIS' IS HER RESIDENCE... 50-29 SOUTH 19TH. IT'S THE SAME ADDRESS ON HER RESUME SUBMITTED TO CITY COUNCIL LAST FEBRUARY AFTER SHE FAILED TO INCLUDE AN ADDRESS ON HER ORIGINAL RESUME. AND THIS IS THE ADDRESS SHE USED TO REGISTER TO VOTE. KRATZ CONCLUDES IT'S CLEAR GUTIERREZ REMAINS A RESIDENT OF SARPY COUNTY. 'IT IS INCONVEIVABLE', WRITES KRATZ,' THAT SHE MOVED FROM HER LARGE, BELLEVUE HOUSE TO A SMALL, OLD, MULTI-UNIT HOUSE IN OMAHA.' MECA BY-LAWS SAY BOARD MEMBERS CAN BE REMOVED WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE. THE MAYOR CAN REMOVE A MECA BOARD MEMBER FOR INCOMPETENCE, NEGLECT OF DUTY, OR MALFEASANCE IN OFFICE.(Jean Stothert, Omaha Mayor, "I don't support change in the rules mid-stream for one person to make them eligible if, indeed, they are not.") BUT SHE'LL NEED CITY COUNCIL APPROVAL TO REMOVE HER. FORMER DOUGLAS COUNTY ELECTION COMMISSIONER PATRICK MCPHERSON SAYS THE RESIDENCY QUESTION MADE HIM SO ANGRY, HE SENT THE LETTER TO GALE'S OFFICE REQUESTING THE INVESTIGATION. (Patrick McPherson, former Douglas County Election Commissioner, "It was clearly something that was orchestrated to appoint somebody who was not a resident of Douglas County and does not qualify to be on the MECA board.") LANGUAGE IN THE VOTER REGISTRATION APPLICATION OATH IS CLEAR: I DECLARE UNDER PENALTY OF ELECTION FALSIFICATION THAT I LIVE IN THE STATE OF NEBRASKA AT THE ADDRESS PROVIDED IN THIS APPLICATION.(Patrick McPherson, former Douglas County Election Commissioner,"She misrepresented her..her residence, you know. That's, frankly, voter fraud.") AND THAT RESDIENCY QUESTION IS THE NARROW FOCUS OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE'S INVESTIGATION ... IT'S A CLASS-FOUR FELONY TO KNOWINGLY SUBMIT FALSE INFORMATION ON A VOETER REGISTRATION APPLICATION. THAT'S UP TO 5 YEARS IN PRISON AND UP TO A 5-THOUSAND DOLLAR FINE. GUTIERREZ HAS AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE MAYOR ON MONDAY TO EXPLAIN HER SIDE OF THE STORY. THAT CITY ATTORNEY OPINION IS AVAILABLE RIGHT NOW ON KETV- DOT-COM.

Sunday was not a day of rest for Bre Macha.
As if arguably the hottest pitcher in the East Valley the past four weeks wasn't already rolling, Red Mountain's junior ace had a pitching lesson on Sunday night, re-kindled her riseball, and apparently raised her repertoire another notch.
Coming off what she called her best outing of the season in beating Desert Ridge on Monday, Macha nearly matched her wits again. She threw a two-hitter with nine strikeouts to beat rival-Mountain View, 2-0, on Wednesday night to send the Lions to an unprecedented fifth consecutive state championship game.
The sixth-seeded Lions will face the winner of Friday's Mountain View-Chaparral winner on Monday night at Arizona State.
Since two rough outings against Gilbert and Desert Ridge, respectively, to begin April, the junior ace has allowed two earned runs and struck out 91 batters in 57 innings.
"The riseball was really working," she said. "I got some jump on it since the pitching lesson."
Mountain View got one runner to second base all night, and while Red Mountain had five hits and four walks against Toros' ace Val Kaff (12 strikeouts), both schools were satisfied with their approach (though not necessarily execution) at the plate against two of the best pitchers in the state.
"The were up there swinging which is all you can ask," Mountain View coach Joe Goodman said. "She just made quality pitches."
A couple Mountain View miscues led to the scoring margin. TJ Beeson singled to right with one out in the third inning, and after Kaff struck out Macha, Jordan Beck roped a ball into center field.
Beeson went to third base, but Mountain View centerfielder Brittney Lindblom threw a strike to third base from near the center field fence. The ball beat Beeson but she was called safe.
Meanwhile, Beck was caught between first and second, and the Toros had her in a rundown, but the throw to second base was low and rolled away. Beeson then took off for home and was safe when the throw in sailed to the backstop for a wild 1-0 Red Mountain lead.
The Lions had chances in the second and fourth innings, but couldn't bunt runners into scoring position. But McKenzy Gutierrez opened the sixth with a single, and, with two outs, Alyssa Fernandez launched a ball to deep right field, but a leaping catch attempt two steps in front of the fence was missed and Gutierrez scored easily for the insurance run.
"Those two runs probably shouldn't have scored, but our defense, unlike other times when we crumbled, didn't," Goodman said.
That was plenty for Macha, although the Toros fared better in making contact against Macha than the Toros' two previous meetings this season (Sid Ryan missed an opposite field home run in the first by a couple feet and younger sister Kinsey Ryan hit two balls hard to the outfield for outs).
But while the Toros remained upbeat with at least one more game to play, the smile on Macha's face was wide enough to suggest Red Mountain's five consecutive appearances in the biggest game of the season wasn't lost on the part of this group of players, a few of which (especially Macha) played a big part in the previous two titles.
"There's so many other (teams) who fought their way all season to get here and didn't make it, so we cherish it," she said. "We still have a fight left to play."
