I'm a newbie to vegetable gardening and have a question on tomato plant spacing and possibly transplanting some of mine. I started some tomato plants and they're all doing well, but some much better than others and I think it may be due to planting them close together. I have raised beds with great soil and was told I could get away with packing my beds fuller than you'd be able to in desert soil. I was limited on space when I first planted but now have opened up a lot more space with great exposure for tomatoes, should I transplant some of the smaller plants that aren't doing that well into the better location or are they too fragile? Any advice is appreciated, thank you! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I guess it all depends. Are your varieties determinant or indeterminate? Are you caging them or staking them or weaving them or trellising them or just letting them sprawl? |
I have Roma, Patio and Celebrity tomatoes and I'm staking the plants that have grown very quickly (and tall). Hope that helps and I really appreciate any advice, thanks! |

2-4 feet apart depending on variety ... they need AIR and LIGHT to reduce molds, mildews and other diseases ... plus this gives you easy access to address critters and to prune, pick fruit ... |
All three are determinate varieties. You do know you are going to get a lot of tomatoes all at once and then all your plants are going to die? Anyway I would stake them 2ft apart as they are short lived and relatively small as far as tomato plants go. You should go to the link at the bottom and read it. |
Here is a link that might be useful: What is the difference between

Spacing is a number that varies from person to person. It also depends on how you grow and care for them. I grow indeterminate toms with 18 inch spacing in my raised bed. But I cage and prune them. I try to grow more for variety than quantity. Some wouldn't consider going this close while others may go with 12 inch spacing. I've only grown Roma once, but 18 inch spacing was doable. The plant didn't get very big for me so maybe I got lucky. I'd say a 2 foot spacing is more than adequate. |

ECU is committed to, and places the highest priority on safe emergency procedures for all workers, students and visitors.
Emergency procedures have been implemented to meet the requirements of Australian Standard AS3745-2010 – Planning for Emergencies in Facilities. All personnel responsible for managing the emergency process are trained in accordance with the relevant standards.
The Campus Support Office on each campus manages the implementation of these practices and procedures. Full and partial evacuations are conducted annually so that ECU complies with current legislation and to ensure that all members of staff are familiar with the procedures in the event of a real emergency.
In the event of an emergency on campus, the Chief Warden is responsible for coordinating the initial response until the arrival of professional emergency support agencies. The Manager Campus Facilities is the designated Chief Warden and is supported by the Emergency Response Team, consisting of Building and Area Wardens, Security and Traffic Services and other designated personnel.
During an emergency, please follow the directions of your Building and Area Wardens and members of the Emergency Response Team. Evacuation procedures for each building, indicating where the nearest assembly areas are located, can be found throughout all buildings. Please take some time to find out where one is located in your building.
Staff, students and visitors should:
Staff conducting lectures or classes at the time of an emergency are responsible for the evacuation of students under their control – refer to the ECU Emergency Manuals.
In the event of an emergency after normal hours (8.00am-5.00pm) contact Campus Security on 6304 3333 (3333 from internal phones).
If you discover an emergency:
In the event of the need to evacuate from your current location on the grounds of your campus, please follow the instructions of Security or a member of the Emergency Response Team.
The following areas have been designated as assembly areas in the event of an emergency incident which requires a total evacuation of the Mt Lawley Campus:
Both of these areas are approved designated Assembly Areas and your Building Wardens will guide you as to which area is to be used depending on the location or type of emergency incident.
The following guidelines explain how to deal with different kinds of emergencies

Over at Slipped Disc, Norman has linked to a fascinating story from the Western Mail, hauling out, for Remembrance Day, the question "Whatever happened to John Foulds and his World Requiem"?
The work is freely available to listen to on the recording that was issued following its resuscitation and performance four years ago at the Royal Albert Hall, so you can make up your own mind about its quality. At the time, I interviewed Foulds's grandson, gatecrashed the rehearsals and became completely fascinated by the zeitgeist that surrounded the work, to say nothing of Foulds's own astonishing story, and that of his partner, Maud MacCarthy. The World Requiem may in fact have vanished for a good reason: though before that performance expectations ran high indeed, it turned out to be rather disappointing, despite some magical moments. Foulds (1880-1939) at his finest is completely fabulous - a fascinating mind, a generous spirit and an original, ingenious creator and craftsman. But even Sakari Oramo, who is largely responsible for reawakening interest in the composer through his championship and superb recordings with the CBSO, admitted in an interview I did with him some time ago that the World Requiem was not really one for him.
Professor Cowgill's research, quoted in the article, is certainly a fascinating addition to the existing body of material about Foulds, which also includes a book by the magnificent Malcom MacDonald. The article, though, doesn't go into the whole picture of the politics that left Foulds out in the cold. He came from an extremely modest background in Manchester, where his father was a bassoonist in the Halle Orchestra; to make matters worse, Foulds's parents were Plymouth Brethren - aged 13, he ran away from home to escape this oppressive religious regime. Snobbery in the musical establishment was of course rife - but more than that, Foulds espoused strong left-wing views, which increased the suspicious attitude towards him. Living in abject poverty, he found himself forced to decamp abroad for a while and he worked in Paris as a cinema pianist.
But spiritualism, eastern philosophies and Theosophy in particular were both fashionable and popular in Foulds's day. And Maud MacCarthy was an exceptional case. She was a child prodigy violinist, then became a pupil of Annie Besant, who had morphed from feminist pioneer to disciple of Madame Blavatsky, the founder of Theosophy. The story goes that when she and Foulds fell in love, both already being married, the two couples sat down together to discuss the situation and agree a conclusion in a civilised manner - though later, when Foulds and MacCarthy went ahead and set up home together, Mrs Foulds (also named Maud) was devastated.
Acceptance of the notion of contact from the spirit world and the dictation of musical themes from the beyond comes through strongly in Foulds's book, Music To-Day - he terms the phenomenon 'clairaudience'. This was nothing new. Even Schumann believed in this sort of thing; there's one famous instance in which he insisted that the theme of his Geistervariationen was dictated to him in a dream by the spirits of Mendelssohn and Schubert (though in this case the unfortunate composer, his mind disintegrating under the influence of tertiary syphilis, had forgotten he'd written it himself and had already used it twice before). As for Theosophy, the poet WB Yeats was another believer, and just two of the other composers lured by the promise of worlds beyond our own - eastern or spiritual or both - were Scriabin and Holst.
What was different was the passion with which MacCarthy devoted herself to her spiritual life, perhaps to a certain extent dragging Foulds along in her wake. She was clearly a powerful personality; Foulds adored her, was absolutely in thrall to her, and seems to have followed where she led. She insisted on the couple's move to India apparently because of a directive she received from the spirit world...
But meanwhile, somewhere in the east end of London, she encountered a beautiful youth - illiterate and poor - who had the ability to channel messages from a group of wise entities that MacCarthy called "The Brothers". We don't know the youth's name; in her books, MacCarthy simply calls him The Boy. She took him to India and set up what today we'd probably call a visitor centre or even an ashram. Devotees came from far and wide to consult The Brothers, as channelled by The Boy, for advice, wisdom and healing.
Foulds, meanwhile, went to Calcutta to be head of music for India's national radio. There he caught cholera and died. Many of his manuscripts were destroyed by the climate or eaten by vermin. We'll never know exactly what was lost, though the idea of an East-West Symphony is both tantalising and tragic. After his death, MacCarthy took the name Swami Omananda, and married The Boy - yes, a swami is a monk and there is a discrepancy there. She insists in her book The Boy and the Brothers that the marriage was only nominal and for appearance's sake, and was never consummated, though the tone of the text suggests at every turn that she was madly in love with him, and was perhaps deceiving herself.
It's only a pity that the World Requiem does not entirely measure up to its back-story. Perhaps, as Remembrance Day approaches, it is time to give it another listen.

Why I didn't go Gothic
As you'll have noticed if you have even half an eye on music in London, yesterday the Proms put on the first professional UK performance in 31 years of Havergal Brian's 'Gothic' Symphony. Everyone's been in a ferment about this. More than 1000 performers were involved; the RAH sold out promptly. There've been previews aplenty... and now the reviews are coming through.
Oh dear. Just look at this, from David Nice at The Arts Desk. "I proclaimed that this was exactly the sort of thing the Proms should be trying. Now I'm hanging out the garlic and spraying the air-freshener to keep Brian's other 31 symphonies at bay." Read the rest here. Meanwhile our friend Entartetemusik put it slightly more tactfully: "The Gothic outstays its welcome..." And my colleague Ed Seckerson at the Independent: "It's an incomprehensible, albeit sporadically thrilling, mess..."
I listened to a bit of it on Radio 3 - but I didn't buy into it. I didn't stay the course. What I heard was just enough to confirm my reasons for not going: I've had it with white elephants. And this is the biggest white elephant of the lot. Besides, as Andrew Clements says "Bruckner is an obvious model...", I'm not surprised if it wasn't quite my tasse de thé.
The White Elephant is a familiar story. We unearth a 'forgotten masterpiece', a work of vast ambition and grand scale and (often) British significance that's disappeared because of a) The Nazis, b) William Glock, c) Pierre Boulez, d) Schoenberg, e) Margaret Thatcher (delete as you think applicable). It is going to change our lives and our view of musical history. There is usually an astonishing tale behind it. We enjoy a huge anticipatory build-up... and then it turns out that maybe there's a good reason after all that the thing isn't performed every other weekend in Weston-super-Mare.
For instance, there was John Foulds and his World Requiem. Foulds, a rather fine composer who has been much championed recently and with good reason, married a mystic Maud who whisked him off to India, where he died of cholera. His World Requiem was given on Armistice Day for three consecutive years after World War I. Then it disappeared...until a few years ago. Much excitement: Foulds undoubtedly wrote some wonderful pieces. Unfortunately it turned out this wasn't one of them.
Sometimes white elephants are too risky; sometimes too large; sometimes virtually unplayable. Sometimes the critics love them and the audience hates them. Sometimes the audience gives an eight-minute standing ovation, as apparently was the case last night, yet the critics wheel out the wild garlic.
So should we keep doing them? Shouldn't we just let sleeping Gothic Symphonies lie? Ahh - I didn't buy into the Gothic, but I'm still glad it happened. I still think it was absolutely right to give it an airing. Because sometimes, in amongst the football rattles and the harmoniums, sifting through strange texts and outlandish philosophies, there might be a gem waiting for us. If we don't give the white elephants a chance to be heard, we'll never know the truth. You need to kiss a lot of frogs before you find a prince.
UPDATE: after a rather Middle Eastern-style scrap about balanced viewpoints, it seems fitting in the interests of world peace to present an alternative and more enthusiastic view written by someone who was at the performance and has explored it in depth.

Breaking Bad's Walter White and Jesse Pinkman do spend a lot of time together which happen in their industry, but one fan found more than one similarity to Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger's relationship in Brokeback Mountain. Even Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul loved this one which you can check out below.
Like with any video, editing with just the right amount of music and cuts, it can be completely turned around, and a big Breaking Bad fan did just that with his buddy Jason Mittleman in what is a very inspired funny clip of Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul doing what they do best. This one's entitled Breakbad Mountain, and it should definitely have the tagline 'Making meth requires a certain kind of chemistry'.
As you'll see, so many of the clips will remind you of the most dramatic scenes from Brokeback Mountain, and these guys were rather brilliant in noticing this and really bringing it to light in this. I love it, and anyone who already loves this duo, will love them even more after watching this. Enjoy!

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 Rocky!
Facts about Rocky
- Breed: Rottweiler
- Color: Black - With Tan, Yellow Or Fawn
- Age: Adult
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Rocky's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, purebred, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
He's a really good boy, his name is Rocky - 4/5 years old. Huge head, his ear is tattood. He is possessive about his toys and growls when another dog gets too close to his dish...otherwise he's really easy to get along with. He's vocal, talks alot!
When we got him his eyes were so green and goopy I thought for sure something was very wrong. Turns out he just has some environmental allergies. We took him to the vet, he got some antibiotics and drops - he's otherwise in perfect health. He tolerates the drops getting put in. His tail was cut too short and has a couple of sore looking things at the base of it, but the vet said they too, are allergy related.
He loves to be with people - loves attention, loves car rides - LOVES toys. Isn't a very big eater. He is usually submissive and only holds his own when really being bothered. .400.0 adoption fee applies cats and other dogs no promblem
Other Pets at Give 4 Paws A Second Chance
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Rocky, a zephyr Rottweiler dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Rottweiler for sale in zephyr, or seeking a Rottweiler dog from a breeder in zephyr.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in zephyr 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 zephyr 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 Rottweiler breeders who help with Rottweiler rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in zephyr paves the way for another one to be saved.

"Get your rule-setting right."
Adults tend to resent rules – especially rules in the workplace. Have you, or the people around you, ever thought these things:
"Why can't they trust us?"
"Do they think we're stupid or something!"
"Isn't that just common sense?"
The reality is that not everyone has the same level of common sense or awareness of consequences, and not everyone can be trusted. That's why organizations need rules.
In a perfect world, we'd all do our jobs with integrity, honesty, safety, and concern for the well-being of stakeholders. But do you have to look far to find examples where this hasn't happened? People embezzle money from companies all the time. And they sometimes take extreme actions to cover up mistakes. A recent example is the French trader who created billions of dollars of debt for his employer, just to try to hide a bad mistake.
Unfortunately, some people take advantage of situations for their benefit. That's why rules are necessary. It's also why you need to understand why the rules are there and what they protect. When you appreciate this, you can help yourself – and others – follow the rules and build more harmony in the workplace.
There are essentially two types of rules...

Team 10 Troubleshooter goes undercover for San Diego County car shop comparison
Simple hose unhooked for consumer test
SAN DIEGO - Consumers may wonder if a mechanic is telling the truth when they take their cars to repair shops.
To find out the answer on some shops, Team 10 went undercover and compared estimates of several shops in San Diego County.
Using a nearly new Hyundai, Team 10 unplugged the car's oxygen sensor so the engine light turned on. The car had just over 4,000 miles and is covered under a 100,000 mile warranty.
Car experts said when Team 10 took the car to repair shops, mechanics should advise our undercover team member to take the car to the dealer, because it's under warranty.
Using reviews on Yelp and the Better Business Bureau, Team 10 took the car to several shops: Precision Tune Auto Care in El Cajon; Import Auto Specialists in San Diego; Rod's Automotive in El Cajon; Precision Auto Tune in San Diego; and Sandrock Gas and Auto Repair in San Diego.
From free advice, to diagnostic testing at a price, to written estimates for a new part or a used part, Team 10 had a wide variety of responses from the group of shops.
The first shop we went to was Precision Tune Auto Care in El Cajon on East Main Street. The owner told us to take it to the dealer.
"We are going to save our customers some money whatever way we can," said owner Karim Sarangi, when contacted by Team 10 after the test.
An auto repair specialist at Import Auto Specialists in San Diego on Ronson Road plugged in a scanner to check the car's computer system. He ran the codes and said the car was so new that it was probably fine.
"We try to stay honest and we believe in karma," said service advisor Charles Schagene when Team 10 contacted him after the test. "We hear horror stories from other places and we try not to be like that."
At Rod's Automotive in El Cajon on N. 2nd Street, an employee said the shop would run a diagnostic test to check things out for $75.
After the test, a manager at Rod's said over the phone the customer would have never been charged.
"I could not have done that vehicle anyway," said Jim, who didn't want to give his last name. "Our after-market software isn't new enough to run those codes. So, if was written up, it would have been sent right back at no charge."
Mechanics at Precision Auto Tune on Midway Drive in San Diego also told Team 10 to take it to the dealer.
The shop told our undercover team member if she felt uncomfortable driving the car, they'd check the engine code descriptions for $40.
"We do that for everybody," said owner Clarence Goodman, when contacted after the test. "We look at your concerns and address those first and advise you on what to do from there. If it was a safety issue we would need more information."
Then Team 10 went to Sandrock Gas and Auto Repair in San Diego on Sandrock Road.
Employees ushered us into a bay, plugged in a scanner and ran the codes to check the car's computer system.
The shop's owner, Lee Asper, said the car needed a brand new sensor for $350. He said he possibly could get us an older part $235.
He gave Team 10 a written estimate detailing the cost and told our undercover team member if we paid with cash, they wouldn't charge tax.
Team 10 went back to Sandrock Auto to ask why they would charge us hundreds of dollars when there is nothing wrong with the car.
Employees called Asper but he never came to the shop.
Team 10 talked to two employees who looked at the car on the day of the test, but both denied ever seeing the car.
Team 10 has both mechanics on video looking at the car the day it was brought in.
Sandrock Auto Repair was the only shop that said the car needed a new part.
Team 10 tried to contact the shop's owner a second time after the car shop test, but was unable to reach him.
Experts say consumers should always check with the Bureau of Automotive Repair before agreeing to repair work. The BAR has a website to help consumers determine a shop's complaint and violation history, as well check on state licensing.
Visit that website here. According to the BAR website, Sandrock Auto currently is under probation.

Important Information >>
By Silas Kopf
"Plus c'a change, plus c'est la même chose." This centuries-old French expression translates something like this: "The more things change, the more they stay the same." It's a bit of wisdom that seems appropriate for woodworkers. Though technological advances can change our tools and methods of work, we often work to standards that artisans established hundreds of years ago.
The marquetry and inlay work I do today is inspired by and measured against the skill and creativity of woodworkers who have practiced the craft for 500 years. Most notable among these artisans was André- Charles Boulle, whose last name is often used to describe the inlay technique that I used on the commodes shown here. During his lifetime (1642 - 1732), Boulle supplied French royalty with furniture that was incredibly rich in surface ornamentation.
Boulle's inlay materials included tortoiseshell, brass, pewter and even animal horn. For contrasting woods, he often used rosewood, ebony, kingwood, and other dense, dark-toned tropical species. Boulle's marquetry technique was to make two contrasting sheets of intricate inlay that were cut from a single sandwich of materials. If the sandwich, or packet, contained two layers that were light and dark, the two final products would be a sheet with a light pattern on a dark background, and a reversed sheet, with a dark pattern on a light background. One sheet would have been considered the primary pattern, in French the première partie. The opposite pattern was called the counterpart, or contrapartie. By sawing both patterns out of one packet and reassembling them on two trays, the background of the première partie becomes the motif of the contrapartie. Boulle made cabinets with both patterns in a single piece, or pairs of contrasting cabinets.
I have developed a way to do Boulle marquetry with modern tools and materials. This Boulle project uses two materials: sheet brass and dark bog oak veneer. They are assembled into a packet (Fig. A) with a sheet of waxed paper, backing layers of thick veneer, and the pattern.
I use standard brass that is .032-in. thick and veneer that I saw myself and sand down to exactly the thickness I need. This veneer should be slightly thicker than the brass, to make the final cleanup easier (Photo 9). It's a lot easier to sand down wood to make it flush with the brass than vice versa. For this leveling process I have found that the veneer I make on the bandsaw holds up better than regular sliced veneer because the wood fibers haven't been crushed. Even so, I glue a piece of newsprint to one side of the veneer with hide glue to strengthen the veneer when I cut the packet on the jigsaw. The brass is scuffed with a piece of fine hacksaw blade on the side that will be glued down to the cabinet. I use 1/16-in. thick poplar veneer for the two outermost veneer pieces, which are sacrificial—they only serve to stiffen the packet. The wax paper lubricates the saw blade.
When you make up your own Boulle packet, each layer should be the same width and length. Assemble the layers with veneer tape and use yellow glue to fasten the pattern on top (Photo 2).
Before you begin cutting, drill starter holes for the scrollsaw blade in every motif (Photo 3). I usually put them at the apex of sharp corners so they're less noticeable. I use a No. 60 (.04 in.-dia.) bit for this work (see Sources, below).
You can do the pattern cutting by hand using a fretsaw, but I prefer to use an Excalibur parallel-arm scrollsaw and a superfine No. 1 wood-cutting blade with at least 20 tpi (see Sources, below). The advantage of the scrollsaw over sawing by hand with a fretsaw is that it keeps the cut square to the work and allows you to maneuver the work with both hands.
I generally start sawing near the center, so the packet is supported fully by the saw table (Photo 4). This is especially important if there is a motif with lines inside other parts. Despite the minuscule size of the blade, it can still be hard to saw crisp points. I run the blade back and forth, turning it slightly each time. This "carving" usually broadens the kerf enough for a tight turn. When I get near the end of a cut, I slip a piece of cardboard under the packet to support the motif. This also prevents tiny cutouts from falling through the hole in the saw table. The leaves on this particular design have veins, made from saw kerfs, which will be filled with dark epoxy during final glue-up.
As I cut individual motifs free, I place them on a felt-covered tray that is larger than the final piece (Photo 5). The felt grips the pieces, preventing them from sliding and getting lost. You can discard the wax paper and sacrificial veneers as the motifs are cut out, but keep the brass and wood layers together.
When you're done cutting, you'll be left with two "grounds," the large pieces into which the inlay will be placed. One is wood, into which the brass will be inlaid (the première partie), and the other is brass, into which the wood will be inlaid (the contrapartie). Glue a piece of kraft paper to the top side of each ground, using yellow glue or hide glue. This creates a bottom for each of the cavities where a motif will go.
I typically assemble the première partie and contrapartie at the same time (Photo 6). Glue the brass piece into the wood ground, then glue the corresponding wood piece into the brass ground. Use a small dab of yellow glue on the back of each motif. You're putting the assembly together upside down, so you should be gluing down the shiny side of the brass and the papered side of the wood. Do your best to keep the kerf from the saw blade even all around each motif.
With the inlaid pieces glued to the kraft paper, you're ready to glue them to the substrate that you will use in the cabinet construction. Traditionally, hot hide glue was used in this step, but I prefer the strength and workability of epoxy (Photo 7). It holds the scuffed brass and wood veneer to the substrate and fills the voids left by the saw blade, including those of the leaf veins. I use black wood dye to darken the epoxy so it matches the color of the bog oak.
For the cabinets shown here, I used MDF as a substrate, cutting the core pieces oversize so they can be trimmed later on the tablesaw. You can do the glue-up with clamps, a press (as I did), or vacuum equipment. Lay up the panel as follows: On the bottom place a thin sheet of rubber. This will absorb the bumpiness of the panels, with their differing thicknesses of brass and wood. For one-time use, non-corrugated cardboard will do. On top of the cushioning layer, lay newspaper or wax paper to prevent the epoxy from sticking to the cushion. Next, place the inlaid sheet, with the scuffed side of the brass up. Coat your core piece liberally with epoxy and turn it upside down on the inlaid sheet. Coat the other side of the core with epoxy, and cover with a piece of backer veneer. Top with a newspaper, a caul, and then clamp (Photo 8).
The panel will be plenty messy when it comes out of the press, but it's immensely rewarding to watch the inlaid pattern emerge during clean-up.
Use a cabinet scraper to remove the paper (Photo 9), then switch to a double- cut *** file, working from all directions. Don't file too vigorously, or the heat will soften the epoxy. I usually switch back and forth between the two panels so they stay cool.
When the designs begin to appear, switch to hand sanding (Photo 10). Although this is tedious, it's necessary to avoid heating the brass. Any voids that you discover can be filled with the tinted epoxy.
Once the panels are clean and flat, they can be trimmed to fit the intended cabinetry. Brass is soft enough to be cut with carbide-tipped blades, but use a high-quality ATB combination blade. The brass will tarnish unless it has a protective finish. Traditionally shellac was used, but I prefer sprayed-on lacquer.

1. The essence of Boulle work is cutting intricate patterns in a packet consisting of thin brass sheet, dark-colored veneer, waxed paper, and sacrificial veneers, that are placed on the outside for stiffening. Veneer tape holds the layers together.
2. The pattern is glued on to the packet using yellow glue. After sawing the packet, it's possible to separate the layers, so that two complementary inlaid sheets can be made.
3. Drill starter holes for the scrollsaw blade inside every motif, using a tiny drill bit. The best place to locate these holes is in sharp corners, where they'll be hard to notice.
4. Cut out the pattern using a scrollsaw with an extremely fine blade. Cut directly on the lines.
5. Arrange the cutouts on a felt-covered board that is larger than the finished sheets will be. When you're done, separate the packet and you'll have a wood background and a brass background, each with the pattern cut in it.
6. Assemble the inlaid sheets by gluing both the ground and the inlaid cutouts onto a piece of kraft paper, using yellow glue. This will hold all the pieces together. Keep the gap around each piece even.
7. Coat the substrate to which you plan to attach an inlaid sheet with epoxy. In this case, the glue was colored black to match the dark veneer. The epoxy fills the kerf left by the saw blade and firmly glues both wood and brass.
8. Press the assembly until the epoxy sets. You should epoxy a veneer to the back of the substrate for stability, and use a rubber or cardboard cushioning layer against the inlay work, because it's bumpy.
9. Scrape the paper off the finished panel, using a cabinet scraper, and then use a file in all directions to level the panel. Work slowly so the brass stays cool; heat breaks down the adhesive.
10. Finish by hand sanding, using a hardwood block behind the paper to keep the work flat. Start with 80 grit and progress to 400. When you're done, lacquer the panel to keep the brass from tarnishing.
Intricate inlaid patterns have been made for centuries. The author's cabinets capture the glory of the traditional Boulle technique, with modern tools and materials.

And what are it's effects on the Borderland?
El Paso, TX (KTSM) — Thunderstorms and extra humidity across the Borderland can mean only one thing. Monsoon season has begun.
It lasts June 15th through the end of September. It's a period of time when the winds reverse and bring moisture from the South.
Rains linked to monsoon wreaked havoc on El Paso in 2006. Now that rain is in the Borderland, many El Pasoans might just think summer is the rainy season.
"Academia loves to argue over 'Was this really the start date of the actual monsoon?'," said National Weather Service meteorologist John Fausett. "People get tied up in that and forget about all the hazards that are associated with a monsoon. So we went with a monsoon season, like a hurricane season".
A monsoon is not a storm or a one time occurance.
"A monsoon is a pattern, Fausett said. "It's a reversal of our winds. So instead of westerlies bringing the dry air in, you start to get winds out of the south southeast bringing moisture in during the summer".

Oxidation State, Charge, Valence
Name: Garrett Status: student Grade: 6-8 Location:OH Country: N/A Date: 5/9/2005
Do the oxidation state, charge, and valency of an element have anything to do with each other?
You are correct in realizing that these terms are all somehow related. Oxidation state and charge are pretty much the same thing, it is a statement on the difference between the number of protons and electrons found in each atom or ion. Valency is almost the same thing. Valency is the number of electrons in the outer shell of an atom and usually tells how many electrons may interact with other atoms in forming bonds. Since it is the outer electrons that tend to be removed during oxidation, then valency is a good way of predicting oxidation states. This is not always true, however, but do not focus on the exceptions, focus rather on what these terms mean.
Greg (Roberto Gregorious)
Your question shows a sense of critical thinking I find commendable. In many cases the terms are just used interchangeably. What they have in common is an attempt to correlate atomic/molecular structure to some "intrinsic" property (empirical or theoretical) of the constituent atoms (oxidation state, charge, valency). Making the connection requires several broad "acts of faith" on the part of the student because in order to hold on to these concepts (which personally I find hopelessly flawed).
It is necessary to immediately modify the bonding model(s) with "ad hoc" after-the-fact patches. Specifically, "resonance structures", "formal charges", "electron promotion, "valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) for short" -- The list is longer but four patches will suffice to make my point.
Introductory chemistry as it relates to the chemical bond needs a conceptual overhaul, but textbook authors seem content, for the most part, to just copy the ideas from older texts.

SBA Cooked Books on Katrina Loans to Help Bush Save Face
In a stunning series of new disclosures, investigators say the Small Business Administration under Steven C. Preston trampled over Hurricane Katrina victims in an effort to stem the political fallout over the Bush administration's disastrous relief efforts.
Early in the evening on Aug. 23, 2005, the National Weather Service spotted the gale force winds of a tropical depression gathering speed over Bermuda. Within 48 hours, a Category 1 hurricane known as Katrina was slicing through Florida. It was one of three hurricanes to strike the region in short order, spawning the most catastrophic natural disaster in the nation's history. More than 1,400 people would die, $80 billion in property would lie in ruins, and the nation would be shocked into disbelief.
As the second anniversary of the storm nears, I'm sure most of us can still recall the heartrending pleas and shocking images of the storm's victims. But the government's bungled attempt to provide emergency aid afterward proved to be just as shocking. In September 2006, the Small Business Administration (SBA) finally responded to public outrage. It launched a major campaign to right the wrongs of its disaster-assistance programs. But according to a yet-to-be-released government report and new congressional testimony, the program was just as scandalous.
Far from a major humanitarian effort to finally aid Katrina victims (as it was billed), the program was a cynical, contrived campaign to clear the backlog of Katrina loans from the SBA books -- at any cost -- simply to help the Bush administration save political face.
Thousands of Katrina victims were summarily denied loans, often without even being told. SBA procedures were violated wholesale; employees were threatened or offered cash payments to clean up the backlog. In order to disburse billions of dollars in backlogged loan assistance, the SBA dished out money to thousands of unqualified recipients, often without the requisite collateral and documentation. More astonishingly, the SBA wrote checks to thousands of people who never finished a loan application and didn't want the money. In some cases, the SBA hadn't heard from the recipients in months.
"These numbers represent individuals and families who have faced a tragedy most of us cannot imagine," said SBA Inspector General Eric M. Thorson in disturbing testimony. His office conducted two audits of the program. The reports are in draft form and have not been released to the public. But Thorson provided the details in testimony this week before the Senate small business committee.
Until now, it's largely been an untold story. But the reports and congressional testimony this week from those who were there, and those who investigated the SBA's efforts, provide a rare glimpse into how a government agency was subverted politically to stem one of the Bush administration's worst political nightmares.
More important, the current debacle calls into question the judgment -- and character -- of current SBA Administrator Steven C. Preston, who was nominated by President Bush in April 2006 to fix the struggling agency. Preston was controversial because of his big business background and strong Republican Party ties. Little did we know that his mission also involved a political fix. In light of what happened you have to question his fitness to continue leading the troubled agency.
The clouds over official Washington first darkened as Katrina left Florida, hit the Gulf of Mexico's warm waters, and surged in fury. By 7 a.m. on Aug. 28, she was a Category 5 monster with maximum sustained winds of 175 mph and lashing, 215-mph gusts. She would make landfall in Louisiana 24 hours later, at 6:10 a.m. Unprecedented destruction followed in her wake.
The monumental task of responding to the emergency and providing relief to thousands of homeowners and businesses fell to two government agencies: the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the SBA. Neither had faced anything like this before, and neither was remotely prepared to deal with the devastation.
In the days and weeks that followed, the nation looked on in stunned disbelief as the government hopelessly bungled relief efforts. Thousands were stranded, hundreds of thousands were displaced, and promised aid was snarled in virtually impenetrable red tape. On April 25, 2006 -- nearly eight months after the storm -- embattled SBA Director Hector Barretto resigned. At the time of his announcement, 90 percent of the money that had been approved for disaster loans to victims had yet to be disbursed.
As the scandal dragged on and public outrage grew, the Bush administration was desperate to break the logjam and get relief to the region. So, in the fall of 2006, the SBA launched a campaign to contact every borrower (some 90,000 in all) within 45 days "to properly and rapidly disburse funds" to the victims of Hurricanes Katrina, Rita, and Wilma, according to a Government Accountability Office (GAO) report. Hence, the program was called "Operation 90 in 45."
Gale B. Martin, at the time an SBA loan officer in the Office of Disaster Assistance, was part of the effort. She told lawmakers she was shocked and stunned by what happened next. Instead of a humanitarian effort to get aid to the region, SBA officials became hell-bent on clearing the books of unprocessed loans at all costs. "We were being forced by management to cancel, decline, and withdraw [loan] applications unnecessarily and unjustly in order to make the numbers look good to the public, the press, and Congress," she testified.
"We were forced to rush through files at a ridiculously unreasonable rate, or be faced with losing our jobs," she continued. "The bar of daily quota production was raised often, and directly correlated with the amount of 'bad press' the agency was receiving."
Martin described a process that was apparently drawn from baseball's three-strike rule. Loan officers were ordered to make three telephone calls to a loan applicant within 24 hours. If they failed to make contact, the loan was canceled. "That meant one call in the morning, one call in the afternoon, and a third call in the afternoon of the second day," she testified. "By the close of business that second day that file could be withdrawn."
If by some happenstance they made contact, the loan applicant was given 48 hours to fax in all their documents. If they failed to do so, the loan application could be declined or withdrawn, she said.
The SBA Inspector General's report confirms Martin's story and similar tales told by eight other loan officers. "These instructions were intended to get the loans off of SBA's books, so that SBA did not have to report a backlog of undisbursed approved loans," said Inspector General Thorson. "Our audit of SBA's records disclosed that, in most cases, SBA made only one attempt to reach the borrower before canceling the loan."
The Inspector General's audit focused on 12,000 loans canceled during a two-week period in September 2006. Of those, about 8,000 were canceled without any prior notification to the borrowers, said Thorson. "I personally visited the New Orleans area and walked on the deserted streets of the worst hit areas, surrounded by total devastation. Just being there was a life-altering experience," he told the committee.
To the SBA, however, Katrina victims were a political problem that had to be dealt with. The three-strike rule wasn't the only high-pressure tactic that SBA officials used on their employees. Loan officers were also ordered to disburse loan proceeds "without contacting the borrowers, even when SBA had not heard from the borrower in several months, or had not received additional documents needed for disbursement."
The directive was part of an effort to meet "production goals" to clear the books through loan disbursements during the 45-day period. "Temporary employees were fearful that if they did not disburse enough loans, they would be terminated," Thorson said. To drive loan officers even harder, the SBA dangled a carrot by offering cash awards to teams that disbursed the most loans.
"We concluded that the goals and bonuses may have inappropriately influenced employees to make decisions or disburse funds that were disadvantageous to the borrower," Thorson testified.
A second Inspector General's audit discovered that more than 21,000 loans, totaling $1.5 billion, were awarded to high-risk applicants who had no visible means of repaying the money. The goal was simply to meet the disbursement quotas. The SBA also disbursed another $368 million in loan proceeds on more than 3,000 secured loans without obtaining the required collateral. That almost guarantees that taxpayers will be stuck with the bill if the loans default.
To date, the SBA proudly claims it has approved just fewer than 120,000 loans totaling $6.9 billion. About 58,000 of those loans went to small businesses. The agency triumphs the fact that all but 1,000 loans have been either fully or partially disbursed, but it's a hollow achievement.
As the hearing testimony reveals, it's likely just another bureaucratic smoke and mirrors show to cover up massive bungling in the wake of the Gulf disaster. And once again, it not only comes at the taxpayers' expense, but also at the expense of all of those who suffered through that terrible tragedy.

A Week On The Wrist: The Girard-Perregaux Chrono Hawk
Girard-Perregaux introduced the new Hawk line of watches earlier this year in Miami's Art Basel.
The line consisted of two watches, the Sea Hawk, which saw a refresh to
a watch that's been in the G-P line since the 40's, and the entirely
new Chrono Hawk. Both are meant to compliment the active lifestyle while
not feeling out of place when the going gets formal. Each also
represents an evolved visual identity for G-P meant to carry the brand
into the 21st century alongside its well established contemporaries. I spent a week with the Chrono Hawk to see just how far along they've come. Read on for my impressions.

GOD'S WORD Translation (GW) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 From Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ. I was sent to lead God's chosen people to faith and to the knowledge of the truth that leads to a godly life. | 1 Paul, a servant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ for the faith of God's elect and the knowledge of the truth that leads to godliness-- |
2 My message is based on the confidence of eternal life. God, who never lies, promised this eternal life before the world began. | 2 a faith and knowledge resting on the hope of eternal life, which God, who does not lie, promised before the beginning of time, |
3 God has revealed this in every era by spreading his word. I was entrusted with this word by the command of God our Savior. | 3 and at his appointed season he brought his word to light through the preaching entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior, |
4 To Titus, a genuine child in the faith we share. Good will and peace from God the Father and from Christ Jesus our Savior are yours! | 4 To Titus, my true son in our common faith: Grace and peace from God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior. |
5 I left you in Crete to do what still needed to be done--appointing spiritual leaders in every city as I directed you. | 5 The reason I left you in Crete was that you might straighten out what was left unfinished and appoint elders in every town, as I directed you. |
6 A spiritual leader must have a good reputation. He must have only one wife and have children who are believers. His children shouldn't be known for having wild lifestyles or being rebellious. | 6 An elder must be blameless, the husband of but one wife, a man whose children believe and are not open to the charge of being wild and disobedient. |
7 Because a bishop is a supervisor appointed by God, he must have a good reputation. He must not be a stubborn or irritable person. He must not drink too much or be a violent person. He must not use shameful ways to make money. | 7 Since an overseer is entrusted with God's work, he must be blameless--not overbearing, not quick-tempered, not given to drunkenness, not violent, not pursuing dishonest gain. |
8 Instead, he must be hospitable, love what is good, use good judgment, be fair and moral, and have self-control. | 8 Rather he must be hospitable, one who loves what is good, who is self-controlled, upright, holy and disciplined. |
9 He must be devoted to the trustworthy message we teach. Then he can use these accurate teachings to encourage people and correct those who oppose the word. | 9 He must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. |
10 There are many believers, especially converts from Judaism, who are rebellious. They speak nonsense and deceive people. | 10 For there are many rebellious people, mere talkers and deceivers, especially those of the circumcision group. |
11 They must be silenced because they are ruining whole families by teaching what they shouldn't teach. This is the shameful way they make money. | 11 They must be silenced, because they are ruining whole households by teaching things they ought not to teach--and that for the sake of dishonest gain. |
12 Even one of their own prophets said, "Cretans are always liars, savage animals, and lazy gluttons." | 12 Even one of their own prophets has said, "Cretans are always liars, evil brutes, lazy gluttons." |
13 That statement is true. For this reason, sharply correct believers so that they continue to have faith that is alive and well. | 13 This testimony is true. Therefore, rebuke them sharply, so that they will be sound in the faith |
14 They shouldn't pay attention to Jewish myths or commands given by people who are always rejecting the truth. | 14 and will pay no attention to Jewish myths or to the commands of those who reject the truth. |
15 Everything is clean to those who are clean. But nothing is clean to corrupt unbelievers. Indeed, their minds and their consciences are corrupted. | 15 To the pure, all things are pure, but to those who are corrupted and do not believe, nothing is pure. In fact, both their minds and consciences are corrupted. |
16 They claim to know God, but they deny him by what they do. They are detestable, disobedient, and unfit to do anything good. | 16 They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good. |

Another step up from our Regional Championships, our North American and European National Championships are highly competitive, top-level events that draw participants from locations far and wide. These championship events feature unique, high-level prize support and provide players their final chances to win first-round byes and free entry to our FFG World Championship Weekend in November (see Welcome to the Winner's Circle below for more details).
The 2012 North American Championships will be held at Gen Con Indy, August 16th-19th. Players will travel from great distances to compete in our tournaments for A Game of Thrones: The Card Game, Call of Cthulhu: The Card Game, Warhammer: Invasion The Card Game, and Dust Tactics. We will also hold the first Dust Warfare North American Championship at Gen Con Indy, as well.
In addition to the North American Championship Tournaments scheduled at Gen Con this year, there will be exciting side events for both LCGs and miniatures during the weekend. Join us at Gen Con 2012 and make your mark at FFG's North American Championships!
In addition to first-round byes and free entry at the FFG World Championship Weekend, we're continuing to offer Gen Con tournament winners the most imaginative prize in gaming – the overall North American Champion for each LCG wins the chance to work with our developers to design an LCG card. The overall champion of each LCG at the annual Castle Stahleck tournament will also have the opportunity to design cards in conjunction with our LCG developers. These cards will enter the card pool in a standard LCG release, forever immortalizing that player's accomplishment and their contribution to the game.
Furthermore, we are truly excited by the possibilities opening up for European champions, and by extension, all players world-wide. The decision to schedule our World Championship event in the Fall was not taken lightly. After careful consideration of the European Tournament schedule that runs in the Summer and Fall, it became apparent that this timeframe would be necessary in order to get champions in Europe to join us at Worlds.
Our partners in France, Germany, and Spain have already made arrangements to send their national champions to the FFG World Championship Weekend, making this a truly global event. We look forward to seeing them, and you, in Roseville, Minnesota this November!

So far it has been shown that the greater percentage of the population the Muslims have, the more outspoken and demanding they become. Western governments seem to be all too willing to give in. Look to France and to some extent Germany for that. The reason they are so quiet here in the US and Canada is their population is not great enough yet. Though you are starting to see some grumblings, like the lawsuit against McDonalds in Michigan. It will only increase, until I believe there will be armed confrontations. The Muslims are outbreeding us, so their population will increase in number and influence. Ten years ago I used to occasionally go to a local mosque and referee their soccer league. They paid well, treated me well, and were very nice to deal with. I no longer referee as I am too old and slow. An old collegue said the mosque (Sunni) was forced to qualify their own people as referees, as our people had started to have problems with them at games. I did not personally experience it, it is all heresay to me, but it does follow the pattern.
A bad day at the range is better then a good day on the job!
There are over a billion Muslims in the world. In comparison, there is a small minority of religious fanatics. All other religions also have religious fanatics, including Christians and Jews. Condemnation of a billion people, based on their religion, for the exploits of a few fanatics, is the same attitude that lead the Germans to try to destroy the Jews; pay attention how that worked out for Thousand Year Reich. Lets try to hate the terrorist, not the Muslims, or we will be no different from the Nazis, and may well share their fate.
"It is better to be too skeptical then too credulous" Carl Sagan
F'em I say. If most Muslims were peaceful some would speak out on a grand scale. Hasn't happened. Call me a bigot, racist or whatever I don't care. Had enough of THEM. There I said it. It's a shame to. Wish all could get along but it doesn't seem possible.
The Koran says to kill the infidels. I ain't ever heard of someone killing another, and shouting, Jesus is great. Chainfire has the typical liberal response.
I dont believe and will never believe that Islam in itself, is evil. I think it is chosen by evil people. Specifically, because it's the last major religion to include an organized movement that condones murder of innocents. It's a spiritual tool for the disenfranchised and desperate. Look at where radical Islam flourishes, the crappiest wastelands of earth and prisons. It offers righteous vengeance that most other major religions have since turned their back on (for the most part). Islams relationship to evil is similar to the AR-15 and mass murderers. An effective tool to be used by desperate souls, seeking revenge for their terrible lives. The relationships are correlations rather than causation. Islam doesn't cause murder anymore than an AR-15 does. It's only when some demented freak gets a hold of either that they feel empowered to do horrible things. If and when some muslim radical uses an AR-15 to shoot up a mall, I believe that will be the day when the internet folds in on itself and becomes self-aware. The machines will begin their cleansing of humanity by turning millions of roombas against their owners. It will be a bloodbath. On that day, we will all agree. The dogs were right. The dam dogs were right all along.
Islam is an evil relegion. Christianity is not.
This Muslim and I agree are in complete agreement on a very, very important point. North America lacks courage and moral clarity in dealing with fundamental Islam. Hence, you and we see our talking heads on TV, federal elitists and their smug minions all trying to dance on the head of a pin whenever the facts go contrary to their construct.
