From The BBC:
A new scientific study concludes that changes in the Sun's output cannot be causing modern-day climate change.So this debunking will be summarily ignored along with all the other evidence and we can keep that debate going on.
It shows that for the last 20 years, the Sun's output has declined, yet temperatures on Earth have risen.
It also shows that modern temperatures are not determined by the Sun's effect on cosmic rays, as has been claimed.
Writing in the Royal Society's journal Proceedings A, the researchers say cosmic rays may have affected climate in the past, but not the present.
"This should settle the debate," said Mike Lockwood, from the UK's Rutherford-Appleton Laboratory, who carried out the new analysis together with Claus Froehlich from the World Radiation Center in Switzerland.

I have a 16x24 double poly GH . With a Modine LP gas funace. Continuous pilot , no power vent . About 8-9 yrs old. Having some issues with it lately- probably due to age and most likely not enough fresh air feeding furnace. I recovered the GH in the fall. The furnace is 100,000 btu, I am in zone 6 . Was having issues with pilot going out. Repair man replaced some parts. I also Added a 4" fresh air vent pipe to bottom of heater , but still having issues with pilot going out - just not as often. So I am thinking that it may be time to upgrade to a better heater. Any suggestions. I do not need it to be a Modine. Mike |
Follow-Up Postings:
Modines are good heaters. At least the four that I have. I just replaced one of my modines after about 20 years of service. The burner was shot and I had an extra Modine so I just installed that one. Is there a loud noise when the burner goes out? It could be flashback that is blowing the pilot out. Try leaving the bottom open and see if that might help. Make sure there is nothing flammable around the heater. |

The heater starts with very little noise. It runs and then the burner stops and the fan runs for a few more minutes. The pilot light goes out when I am not in the GH. I really dont hear any load noises I had an issue with lots of soot build up in the beginning of season. I had it cleaned, new pilot , new regulator, removed and cleaned the burner. Still had problems with the pilot going out almost every day. Then I made a 4" air inlet pipe ran directly to the bottom of the heater. It will run for a few days and then the pilot goes out Maybe not enough fresh air. All this started after I replaced the covering. I believe that the house was drafty, and it got plenty of air. Now the bottom of the house is sealed tight I have looked at the new Hot Dawg, that has fresh air intake, - and have seen a few other brands - . I may even get a smaller size heater. Calculations tell me I can use a 35-40,000 btu. This one is not running to long before the thermostat shuts it down. I wonder if anyone has had luck with the Modine Hot Dawg, or another brand. |

ABC News' Shushannah Walshe and Matt Negrin report:
Last May, a cult-like throng of journalists chased Sarah Palin and her bus along the East Coast, eager that she'd drop the slightest of hints that would answer an almost fanatical question: Was she jumping into the GOP primary?
This weekend she gave a speech in front of hundreds of supporters, revving them up with some of her favorite lines — blasting both President Obama and "crony capitalism" and calling the "bitter clingers" to action. She even unveiled this new line to huge cheers:
"We're little tea pots, and we're getting steamed up because Obama is tipping us over, pouring us out and draining the entrepreneurial spirit from us, that which grew America into the most exceptional nation ever known," she said at a tea party event for wounded soldiers in Belleville, Mich., sponsored by the Koch brothers-backed Americans for Prosperity.
Yesteryear's Republican nominee for VP is still a folksy fireball, but gone is the dissection of every word she says, analysis of everything she espouses on Fox News or rabid coverage of her every move, even big speeches like the one in Michigan. She still does those things, of course — Thursday night she told Greta van Susteren that Condoleezza Rice would be a "wonderful" running mate — but the constant headlines of her name before a colon have vanished.
She was once the most visible spokeswoman for the conservative cause, and now her reality star daughter Bristol gets almost more attention. Not that the elder Palin isn't still good at it; she riles up a crowd in a way no one on the GOP side can. So why the fading headlines?
Get more pure politics at ABC News.com/Politics and a lighter take on the news at OTUSNews.com
SarahPAC is still a secretive organization, but those willing to lift the veil a bit say she's actively taking a step back and not much is going on inside. What's not clear is if they are gearing up for attack or if she will stay in the background.
Even her chief of staff has left, ABC News has learned. Michael Glassner was hired last February and it set off a flurry of early will-she-won't-she run headlines. He recently left SarahPAC because there just wasn't enough for him to do, according to several sources knowledgeable of the inner workings of the organization.
They are still fundraising, though. According to their Federal Election Commission filing Friday they raised $780,000 over the past three months. That's up from only $388,000 they raised in the first three months of the year.
Despite the slower schedule, she is focused on congressional candidates as opposed as to the top office. She went after Obama in Michigan ("Why would anybody want to fundamentally transform what is so good and free and strong about America?" she said, according to the Detroit News), but she isn't firing up the crowd for the presumptive GOP nominee, a visible distinction.
Palin never officially endorsed Mitt Romney, and in her Fox News appearances and Facebook posts, she prefers to slam Obama rather than praise his challenger.
Down-ballot candidates still clamor for her backing, though, and she still carries influence — look at Deb Fischer's surprise win for the GOP Senate nomination in Nebraska (she doesn't get all of the credit, of course) as well as Richard Mourdock in Indiana and even Ted Cruz, in Texas, who forced Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst into a runoff election later this month. And just last week she came out for Florida Rep. Sandy Adams in her tight primary battle against fellow GOP Rep. John Mica.
Palin's next steps are a bit of a mystery, but why isn't she hitting the road with Romney, jazzing up the so-called base that the former Massachusetts governor has struggled so hard to win over?
"I think it would be essential for victory in the fall for Gov. Palin to be involved in galvanizing turnout in key battleground states," said Steve Bannon, the executive chairman of the right-wing Breitbart News who is also Palin's friend. "In order to win, we need the same type of surge in the fall of 2010 among tea party and grassroots organizations, working-class people — and Gov. Palin talks to that audience better than anybody else today. … There is no scenario for victory in November in the battleground states that is not directly tied to turnout. Governor Palin is the key that picks that lock."
Palin has yet to make an appearance on the road to the White House being traveled by Romney. As we approach Romney's announcement of his own running mate, four years after Palin was plucked from the frontier, the headlines about the pride of Wasilla are almost more about her family's reality shows than her comments or aspirations. Her daughter, Bristol, stars in "Life's a Tripp" on Lifetime, and her dog-sledding husband, Todd, is set to be a celeb himself, competing in a show next month on NBC called "Stars Earn Stripes."
And what about the Republican National Convention next month — the place she made such a splash just four years ago — there's no sign that she will have a speaking role, but we do know her political action committee will be there, if not on site.
On FEC forms filed in April, SarahPAC spent $4,500 to reserve space at the Channelside Bay Plaza in Tampa for the event. It's a five-minute walk from the Tampa Bay Times Forum, where the actual convention will be, and it's easily accessible to all the big GOP leaders and delegates, as well as the thousands of journalists who will descend on Florida.
Grover Norquist, the anti-tax hawk, said the Romney campaign would be wise to build a strong relationship with Palin just as it has done with Ron Paul, the libertarian candidate who marshals a loyal following in the GOP. But with Palin, formalities might matter — Romney shouldn't expect Palin to beg for a speaking slot at the convention, he said.
"Some people need to be invited. Some people need to be told, 'We want you,' " Norquist said. "People like to be asked."
Norquist added: "There's still this sense that people have — 'I liked her, I trusted her, I had this connection with her. The media that doesn't like her would never have lunch with me anyway. We are two peas in a pod.' "
And in a hint as to how Palin is thinking about Romney's campaign and what advice she would give, Bannon said he believes she would agree with a Romney surrogate who hasn't always been so kind to Palin.
"I think she would agree with John Sununu on one vital topic: the Romney campaign has to start talking in 'simple declarative sentences,'" Bannon said, referring to advice the tough talking former New Hampshire governor and Romney surrogate gave the campaign on CNN earlier this month.

Testify Today To Increase Oil Production
Who: Alaska Chamber Members
What: Testify in support of meaningful oil tax reform tonight.
Why: To increase production and support the Alaska economy
When: Today Wednesday, March 6 & Tuesday, March 12
Where: Your local Legislative Information Office (Click here to find the LIO nearest to you)
The Senate Finance Committee will be taking public testimony from Alaskans on SB 21:
Wednesday, March 6
3 - 5 p.m.
Tuesday, March 12
4 - 6 p.m
How: Use the following talking points and resources. Comments should be limited to two minutes, but don't forget to state your support for meaningful reform.
Talking Points:
- We support the Governor's four key principles that tax reform: 1) must be fair to Alaskans, 2) must encourage new production, 3) must be simple, and 4) must be durable for the long term.
- Alaska's economic future is at state and our economy relies on oil and gas. To increase long-term jobs we need to increase production today, which is more important than the state making more money through high tax rates today.
- Alaska is about to become the fourth largest oil producing state in the United States. Right behind California. This is unacceptable. In 2012, Alaska's oil production averaged 547,000 barrels per day (bpd).
- Tax policy does have an effect on the oil and gas industry. Alaska's tax policy should generate more production from new fields and legacy fields alike.
- Exploration does not guarantee production. Companies currently exploring in Alaska, such as Repsol, support a change in the production tax structure.
- It takes an average of at least between 5 to 7 years to reach production if an exploration well is successful.
- Increased production would increase the health and viability of the Trans-Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS).

A Sneak Peek at Under Armour's Notre Dame Fighting Irish Uniforms
Earlier this month, it was announced that Under Armour would serve as the exclusive performance footwear and apparel supplier for the University of Notre Dame. Today, the brand and school have officially announced the new partnership at a press conference at the school's Indiana campus.
The 10-year agreement means that Under Armour will equip the university's men's and women's varsity athletic team for training and game-day appearances from head to toe. Take a look at the sneak peek of the men's basketball uniform provided by their instagram account, @NDmbb.
Under Armour founder and CEO joined University VP and Director of Athletics Jack Swarbrick to formally introduce the partnership. "Notre Dame is the standard-bearer of excellence in collegiate athletics and is one of the most recognizable and admired universities in the world," said Plank. "It's an honor and a privilege to have the opportunity to dedicate our passion and innovation for making athletes better in this game-changing partnership. We look forward to collaborating with the university's administration, athletic department, student-athletes, alumni and its powerful fan base to uphold the Fighting Irish's championship pedigree."
Stay tuned for more details on the Under Armour takeover and how the university will be involved in their wide-ranging story telling efforts.

Then I guess I will just eat chicken, if that's what everything else tastes like!
Then I guess I will just eat chicken, if that's what everything else tastes like!
What I say 100 times each day:
"It's not a Disney Resort even though it's on Disney property!"
Go for it, I'll keep myself from telling you how chicken kidneys taste :p
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?
Don't shoot me BUT.. I had to try this well talked about shark fin.. It was a filling for steamed dumplings.... umm.. it was GROSS!!! tasted like shark jello if you ask me!!! Yeah that was a once in a lifetime experience..
Can't tell you about what dog meat tastes like. But I do know that in China they raise St. Bernards for meat, to the chagrine of the Swiss. And they also raise Alsatians for fur. I suppose it's no different than any other livestock.
Snakes tastes like chicken, too. But then, there are different tastes in chicken, depending on the species, its feed, age, etc. So saying it tastes like chicken is just a cop-out, or really making an advertisement for the chicken people, like Tyson.
or it....actually.....does taste like a regular chicken.....available at your local grocer's freezer :P
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?
latest from Hong Kong Disney:
total chaos as food service staff culd not handle 30,000 visitors. One hour wait at McDonalds. Government told them to limit visitors to 20,000 a day. Just imagine if they served shark fin soup and dogs. That would double the attendance to 60,000.
latest from my opinion:
give them a break, seriously, how many theme parks are there in Hong Kong? Can you possibly expect them to be experts at a job they never had before? To get well, you need time, and experience. Did you watch ****'s Kitchen (it's a weak comparison I know)? In the beginning 16 chefs couldn't feed a whole restraunt, near the end, 4 chefs fed the entire restraunt themselves.
one more thing. Ok, I get that your for animal rights and things of that nature, I don't have a problem with this, however, why do you feel the need to keep bringing up what they eat in other parts of the world? how would you feel if some people from India were here and they kept convicting us? (if I remember correctly, you are a vegetarian, so the point to you may be moot, but the idea is clear)
in essence, I get why your for the rights you advocate, I just don't see why you keep bringing it up, since I don't think many people here are going to Hong Kong anytime soon (myself excluded). So I really don't know what you're trying to accomplish.
again, I'm sorry if I sound rude, I just don't totally understand what you are trying to accomplish.
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?
Ok, I don't really think I would ever eat Shark cause it is not something I'm interested, and I see some people's points but....
Why is it ok to eat some animals but not others? I think if you are going to be mad they are eating shark, then you should be mad we eat cows, chickens, lambs, pigs, etc. I just don't see the difference and why one animal is off limits but others are just fine to eat.
Is this shark endangered? If not, then I don't see the problem.
"Almost everyone is mad here. You may have noticed that I'm not all there myself." - Chesire Cat
"You have spirit for one so small, and that spirit deserves a fighting chance." - Shere Khan
the point that was made regarding that was that some companies cut off the shark's fin, then throw the rest away.
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?
Several points to Shere Kahn:
The Heat mentioned that they just throw the rest of the shark away, and let them die as they sink back into the sea. "Cruelty" is a subjective judgment, but the waste can be objectively agreed.
Second, many species are endangered, including the basking and whale sharks, whose large fins are prominently displayed in some of more famous restaurants in HK.
Third point about Disneyland in Hong Kong is that it was built entirely on landfill, and the dredging has caused imreparable harm to the local marine environment, choking the fish with silt, and further endangered the Chinese Pink dolphin living nearby.
That's the fish story.
Ergh, first off I love animals. And I eat meat. Second, don't believe anything that PETA says. They are a bunch of radicals who are practically undoing all the good work that animal welfare agencies have accomplished by their extreme and often illegal means. Third, chickens, cows, and fish are raised in this country for the sole purpose of being eaten. In Hong Kong, they go into the wild and take the fins off wild sharks, then leave them to die. And it's not just one or two sharks. That is the problem. Not only is it wasteful, it is cruel, and it is also endangering species. And if certain species become limited or extinct, it has a huge effect on the whole ecosystem.
It is not about eating different things in different parts of the world. It is about basic animal rights and welfare, especially with an animal as majestic and beautiful as a shark.
It's not worth it.. Shark is gross!!!
I liked it ^^
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?

Written by: Lettie Kirkpatrick Burress www.writingforhim.com Delegating is key. An effective leader does the tough thing --- she releases control of many aspects of a church's women's ministry to other gifted women. While she guides by example and by position, she must also learn to "partner" with the women she serves, rather than dominating. At a recent lunch appointment, I listened to a friend share about watching two women at her church direct a ladie's event. Although there were many women available to serve, those two "did it all" while everyone else looked on and felt useless. Discerning the giftedness of the women we minister to is a priceless part of the process of plugging women in and allowing them to experience the joy (and benefits) of service. As we observe them, we must ask God to show us where "our girls" fit and what they do well. Then we help them nurture those gifts for use in the body of Christ. Don't rush. Very often, leadership comes on board with visions, goals, and plans they are anxious to see in place. Remember, though, it takes time to build relationships, and draw others into our plans while earning trust and respect as a leader. Be willing to move at the pace required for that to happen. The Destination is unity. When women move toward a goal in a united way, the success of a project is assured. While there may always be some naysayers, a general consensus is necessary for women to work together, enjoying the fellowship and growth of a common pursuit. This is true whether it is preparation for a small outing or a major event. Disciple, don't parent. When we are focused on a ministry goal, it can be frustrating when others don't see its importance or don't follow through on their commitments to contribute time, talent, or finances. Grown women don't need pressure, guilt trips, or someone doing their job. Our ladies ministry had a fun newsletter that everyone enjoyed. But it required a group effort of contributions, computer skills, and meeting deadlines. When it became obvious those things were not going to happen, we reluctantly chose to discontinue the newsletter. Do what works. When setting goals and planning programs, recognize the differences in people, programs, and even spiritual maturity. It helps us face unrealistic expectations and prevent disappointment. For instance, one women's ministry offered intensive 12 week studies that were attended by only a small number of women. When they tried a different type of six week study, they were able to reach a much larger group of women. Define events. Women enjoy being able to call something by name. Try to give an upcoming event a title that describes it and conveys a sense of glad expectation. An evening of "Sharing your Secrets" is spent sharing household, money-saving, and time-saving hints, but it draws women in. The topic of lifestyle evangelism becomes "Telling your Story", and a trip to an unnamed location is a "Mystery Morning". The naming of events helps tremendously with verbal and visual announcements. Distribute accolades. Be generous with appreciation, acknowledgement, and encouragement. Expressing thanks, both privately and publicly, to those who have contributed to ministry (or who just need to be recognized) should be considered a regular part of a leader's responsibilities. How this is done (phone calls, emails, notes) can vary, but it is not an option. Deflect both praise and criticism. Just as many complaints and much murmuring can be unfounded and unworthy of response, so praise is pleasant, but only to be acknowledged and released. With an open heart and willing spirit, ask God if the criticism has any merit at all and respond accordingly. When praise comes, remember where glory goes and Who is the source of all we are and accomplish. Determine to let God lead the leader. It is easy to get caught up in the pace of activity and leadership and forget Who is in charge. Nothing of any worth is accomplished without the power, direction, and wisdom of the One who we serve. He is the One who keeps us focused, balanced, and serving. His grace, His mercy, and His love will accomplish His purposes in us, in the hearts of those we serve, and in the church and lives we hope to impact. Return to Women's Ministry Page

The rise in popularity of mechanical keyboards that replicate the Model M's design opens the door to more independent companies like Rosewill making their own versions, and the RK-9000 has all the parts typists are looking for in a mechanical input device, including Cherry Blue switches, a tough nylon-wrapped USB cord, a low-profile design, and an affordable price to top it off.

Well, that was … unexpected. Some key takeaways from an eye-opening 104-96 Raptors victory over the Cavs to start the season.
– The obvious caveat that everyone's going to throw out here is the fact that this win came against the Cavaliers, a team that won fewer games than the Raptors' 22 victories last season. But regardless of opponent, it would be tough to duplicate the balance the Raptors received on both sides of the floor and up and down the lineup. Head coach Dwane Casey wisely said post-game "I don't want to get too excited on the wins, and I don't want to get too upset on losses." The Pacers should provide a more substantial challenge in Wednesday's home opener.
- This was a game where the Raptors defence traveled pretty well in the first game that mattered (a few Cleveland drives after halftime notwithstanding). A big positive? For each of the seven Raptors who scored in double figures tonight, I can think of a strong defensive play for each of them. Whether it was Jose Calderon moving his feet to deny Kyrie Irving baseline or DeMar DeRozan following a missed shot with a sneaky steal (Kyrie, you again. Sorry.) this team definitely seems to be buying what Casey is selling in terms of defence.
Not bad for a team that's trying to get its man-to-man coverage up to snuff before implementing any zone defence. But Casey still sees plenty of work to do saying "I'd give us a 'C' probably as far as containing the ball."
– Game 1 was unquestionably the best the Raptors have looked so far offensively and they did it by sharing the ball with 35 assists on 42 made field goals. "That was our buzz word for the night 'Trust The Pass' and our guys did," said Casey post-game. "They trusted each other, found the open man and made the extra pass."
Also much improved in Game 1, way fewer turnovers (12) and way better shooting percentage from 3-point range (9-21 3PTFGM-A for 42.9 per cent).
– Interesting to see Casey running things through Bargnani and DeRozan down the stretch with the duo scoring 13 of the team's final 16 points. It also prompted one of the early quotes of the year from the head coach with "no disrespect to last year, but this is not a democracy, offensively. We want to make sure our offensive players, who are our closers, get the basketball."
– So Casey gets his first win as head coach of the Raptors and two of his biggest moves came hours before tip off. Casey used a third Raptors starting lineup in as many games and the changes yielded two impressive results. James Johnson came in off the bench and while the turnovers remain an issue (four in each game including preseason so far), he was a big part of the spark the second unit brought tonight with steals, rebounds, blocks and assists. Odd stat: Johnson moves to the bench but still logs a team-high 36 minutes.
Starting Amir Johnson (13 pts, 13 rebs, 3 asts, 3 blks) at centre proved to be even more beneficial. His great chemistry with Jose Calderon offensively (especially in the pick-and-roll) remains intact and his defence and rebounding were big factors at the other end of the floor. Amir may not always start at centre depending on the matchup, but he'll earn a pretty major chunk of minutes up front if he can keep up that level of play.
– Speaking of Calderon, a vintage performance for quite possibly the best player on the floor tonight. Nothing forced, he was deadly from distance, lethal with the lob pass and perhaps most importantly, put DeRozan and Bargnani in a position to succeed down the stretch.
– Earlier this season assistant coach Johnny Davis told me that learning how to put teams away in the fourth consistently was a big key to the Grizzlies eventually turning the corner last season. Monday proved to be a good confidence builder and lesson in that regard as the Raptors bent, but didn't break after a Cavs fourth-quarter run.
– You couldn't ask for much more in just under 18 minutes from Ed Davis. The crafty lefty power forward coupled some excellent rim protection with a perfect night from the floor offensively (7-7 FGM-A). It should be interesting to see how his role might grow over the course of this season.
– Aaron Gray sat this one out Monday night as the team was reportedly "monitoring [his] rapid heart rate." Raptors media relations tweeted Gray will see a specialist at Cleveland Clinic in the next few days, the facility where fellow NBA players Jeff Green and Chuck Hayes were tested recently for heart-related issues. More on this as we get details.

Packaging and the LinkStation 420
The LinkStation 420 arrives with colorful box art, similar to what we have found with the DriveStation DDR, which we reviewed a few months back. Marketing on the front of the box mentions 80 MB/s performance, along with capabilities of the unit as NAS storage with its RAID 1 data protection.
Included with the LinkStation 420, we find a flat ethernet cable, power adapter, and user manual with software disk.
The Buffalo LinkStation 420 is similar in appearance to the DriveStation series. On the front, we have the power button.
On the back of the appliance, we have a single Gigabit ethernet port with a USB 2.0 available as well.
The front of the LinkStation 420, after removed shows the drives houses in the drive trays.
Our LinkStation included dual Seagate Desktop HDDs in the 4TB capacity.
Removing the casing from the LinkStation, we find the Marvell Armada 370 SoC next to 512MB of DRAM.

Tecolote and Venado (aka my son Paul and his eight-year-old son Asher) headed out on March 9 to hike the length of the Appalachian Trail this year. They are within 100 miles of the 2200 mile trek to the finish on Maine's Mt. Katahdin. I wondered if Asher could do this--but he has become the driver of the adventure. Here's to you, Asher!!! |

I walked many parts of the "Appalachian Trail" while living back east. The trails were well marked and it was an easy walk for us week-end walkers. It is a beautiful part of Virginia and West Virginia. What's up with the "Barbarian" thingy? |
West, the phrase comes from Benton Mackaye, one of the central figures in establishing the Appalachian Trail and a man whose writings are both startling and mind-changing--though sometimes a bit too hyperbolic for my taste. From what I can gather from the little I have read of Mackaye, he meant the phrase to contrast with the Metrolitan who wants the trail to be less wild and more tame. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Benton Mackaye
Many congratulations to both for their accomplishment. I've walked portions of the trail, and once upon a time had hopes of walking the whole thing. At that time, a notable amount of the southern segment was really for experienced hikers with vague markers and tough climbs. Do let us know how they rated it. |
Walking the complete Appalachian Trail is a great accomplishment for anybody, but it's extra great for an eight year old. He must be a very special and very tough kid. You must be proud of both of them. |
The toughest climb, according to Tecolote, was the Mahoosuc Notch in Western Maine. Often described as the "toughest mile on the AT," this notch can take several hours to treverse. Tecolote and Venado (my son's and grandson's trail names) were very pumped up by having done it in 1 hr. 45 mins. If you are on Facebook, check out Barbarian Utopia for a remarkable account of this amazing trek. |
Here is a link that might be useful: Mahoosuc Notch
I have followed the trek on Facebook and am so impressed at their accomplishment. Venado will never forget this and it will have a great influence on his outlook on his life and his future. |
Lilo, I hear from everyone who has met up with them and also from Tecolote that the little boy who headed out on this trek is a different boy now. I really do think this will work out to be a life-changing experience for him. I am anxious to see him again and just "feel" what's been happening to him. |

Have a detached, two-car garage and I'm thinking about renting half of it. If any of you do this, do you charge by square footage, comparable storage rates in the area, or use other factors to determine rental fee? Do you and/or how often do you raise the rent, and if so by how much? Only plan to rent the space for storage only - not as a workshop. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Are you in a safe area to do this. I would not do it unless I personally knew the person/people. You never know what people put in storage. Would this person come and go as they wish and would your stuff be in the other half. Also you might check with your insurance company because of the liability. Marie |
Yes, I'd want to think over the potential problems with what someone could put in there, and also the possibility of them coming and going at odd times, leaving the door unlocked and exposing you to having your own stuff stolen, etc. To fix a rate, check with "mini-warehouse" places in your area and see what they charge for a storage facility that has roughly the same square footage as what you're going to be renting out. Ken |
Adnemra/Choufleur, Perhaps, if you have time and there are some other garages near you, check with the owners to find whether someone has rented theirs, what fee they charged, what their experiences were, etc. Your rental fee will be substantially influenced by the fact that you are only renting half and can't offer sole access. Have you considered building a partition down the middle? If considering it, is there a window that would give light in each side during the day? Are there two doors, to allow each user private access? You might be able to recover the cost of building the partition (plus window and door, if required) from the extra fee that you could charge by offering sole access to the renter's portion. Plus interest on your cost of contruction during the period until it was all repaid. You might consider that this would take so long that the construction was not worth the trouble. Further - if you were to change your plans and use the whole garage yourself at a later date - not only might you have not recovered the full cost of the construction - but the wall might be in your way and you end up several years from now wishing that it were not there (or removing it). Just some ideas to consider. Good wishes with your quest. joyful guy |

I love the way June looks in the sun. I don't have a lot of areas with sun though. I found out this year that I don't like the color of it being in partial sun. I prefer it in a lot of sun or little sun. Yours look happy and healthy. I can "see" that you are doing a great job of culling out the blue! Is the blue Halcyon? Here is a picture of one of my Junes in the shade. I love water beads! |

Your June is a thing of beauty pictured with the water beads! Takes my breath away. Yes, that's the blue and it's quite substantial already...I think I first noticed the sport last year. BK...It's a precautionary measure...thanks, Dave! Little snails and slugs also hide within the plant so the 'bath' will get rid of them and any eggs. |

Everyone's June pics are beautiful. I don't care if she's in sun or shade, she is a real beauty! Here's my June, she's in part sun. Still looking good even with the season winding down. |
By the way, not red mulch in the pic! (Hate that stuff!) It must be because the pic was taken at twilight and the mulch was also damp with rain that it looks so red, cause it's regular brown. Wierd. The hosta is true to color. I didn't want Ken to hunt me down b/c of that mulch! :) |
Haha...red mulch police on the prowl, eh? An acquaintance of mine was just telling me what an amazing deal she got on a bunch of RUBBER mulch...she said she will have enough extra for me to take some, too. Gee, you think that would be a nice addition to the hosta beds? Heheh. Maybe its RED rubber mulch! Hmm... Back on topic though, lovely Junes all around. That classy gal just can't take a bad photo. I can't wait until mine starts strutting her stuff! |

'June' has become my favorite Hosta at the moment. Not that I have a large collection, just seven varieties all together. It has really performed too. Grown quickly from a small plant, in maybe 3hrs of morning sun. It's doing so well, I hesitate to touch it, but would love a second one. I might just pick up another one. It's the first I've heard about 'blue sports', so I took a look at my photo to see if I had any. I see one solid blue leaf on the left side here, is that what you are talking about? Is there any harm in leaving it alone? |

Jadie...your terrific humour is always welcome!! Post a pic of that rubber mulch when you get it, ok? Throw it in here or start a vry funny post..lol Moc...I actually am seeing a satiny sheen on your June...it's beautiful. Prairie moon...you have a gorgeous specimen of June...the leaf you pointed out actually has some variegation on top left of leaf...see what Spring will bring...I had June for at least four years before it sported the blue. I culled it because I wanted to grow it..I used to have Halcyon, which is a parent of June. As I've learned from Idiothe's wonderful 'tutorial' which I will find for you, some solid sports are very vigorous growers and if left to grow alongside the parent, can take over. Some of our forum gardeners pinch it out, or pull it off, or cut it...I let it grow for a full year and I'm so happy with its size and vigour. It will grow as H. 'Halcyon' in my garden (potted up for now). |

Prairiemoon... here is an excerpt from Idiothe/Jim's explanation to me re solid coloured sports. ".......if a variegated hosta gets a solid sport started, that sport will usually be more vigorous than the original plant. It has more chlorophyll. It will often have larger leaves. Even if the same sized leaf, the additional chlorophyll, as a general rule, makes it a more vigorous plant - and that means it is producing a larger percentage of the crown in the ground. That crown will determine the composition of the plant in future years. The time varies, but in the typical situation the solid will take over the plant. On a more typical plant... you can leave that solid on there for a couple of years without too much concern - but most folks remove them immediately when they see a whole solid eye...just grab the eye near the base and give it a twist-pull." |

Gee, thanks Josephine! I learned something new today. I do love this 'June' hosta's variegation and I will wait for next year just to see how it does, but then I will pull that leaf if necessary and keep my eye on it in the future. I do see the slight variegation on that leaf. I bought my plant in 2008, so it was 5 years old this year and has been left undisturbed all that time. Thanks! |
I did notice a leaf on my June that is different. It has a white streak. I'll keep an eye on it next year and see if it just goes away or it comes back with friends :) |
Has anyone else had a June that sported a June Fever? My June made a Fever all of her own. I wonder if this is common, as 'June Fever' is listed as a sport of 'June'. Sure pretty though. Glad to have a Fever. |
I could be way off here, but I read that 'June Fever' is a sport of 'Devon Green,' the all green 'Halcyon' sport. If that source is correct, then a sport straight from 'June' would be something else, yes? |

Is the area protected on the cliffs with strong winds off the bay or unprotected . Are you on what eposure to the sun. How much sunlight during the middle of the season will these pots get. When would that sun if any during the day be available. Will you be placing these pots directly onthe shore sand, rocks, steps, hanging in trees, nailed to a wall?! What time period would you be able to care for these plants, and at what stage do you want these plants, ie geraniums flowing with color and ivy works if dead headed and feed a nice compost tea every other watering or so. some plants which are cooled by the shore breezes may compensate for shade if kept cool and with sunlight much like those in protected shaded areas which do well. However some winds on shorelines are salty sprays and may kill theplants if too close or be salt tolerant. shade/light/exposure/potsize/soil/placement all play a part in the sucess of where a plant resides and grows.:) Sorry ot be so long....I am procrastinating cleaning and organizing my home... |

Again I am 6' tall and with pack about 220# I am running 2.4 Maxxis Ardents up front and 2.25 in back and they are 29ers. Since I have gone tubeless I have run down around 20 a few times but didn't like the roll over, but the traction was awesome! It seems with my weight 25psi works well for me, although every now and then I can feel the rim hit on some hard square edges, but only on the rear tire where all my weight is!

A real pain in the patoot to make but ahhhh soooo good!
1 # mild ground pork sausage
2 T butter
4 green onions, thinly sliced
14 large eggs, beaten
¾ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper
8- 8" soft green spinach taco size tortillas
1 C (4oz) Monterey Jack cheese with peppers
Grape tomatoes cut in half
1 or 2 green onions, thinly sliced
sour cream garnish on top is optional
Cheese Sauce:
1/3 C butter
1/3 C all-purpose flour
3 C milk
8oz cheddar cheese, shredded (about 2 C)
1- 4oz can of chopped green chiles
¾ teaspoon salt
1. Start with the cheese sauce. Melt butter in a heavy saucepan over medium low heat; whisk in flour until smooth. Cook whisking constantly for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk; cook over medium heat, whisking constantly 7 minutes or until thickened. Remove from heat, and whisk in remaining ingredients until cheese is melted. I left the ¾ teaspoon of salt out and thought it great.
2. Cook sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium high heat, stirring frequently until sausage crumbles and is no longer pink. Remove from skillet and drain well in a sieve pressing it with paper towels. Wipe skillet clean. Melt butter and add green onions and sauté 1 minute. Add eggs, salt and pepper and cook without stirring until eggs begin to set on the bottom. Gently draw cooked edges away from the sides of the pan to form large pieces. Cook until eggs are thickened but still moist. Remove from heat.
3. Place about a ¼ cup of cheese mixture on each tortilla long ways. Divide up egg and sausage between the 8 tortillas and roll up tight. Place the tortillas seam side down in a lightly greased 9"X13" Pyrex baking dish. Pour remaining cheese sauce over tortillas, then sprinkle with Monterey pepper jack cheese.
4. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes or until sauce is bubbly. Garnish with tomatoes and green onion.

King James Version (KJV) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered , and his disciples. | 1 When he had finished praying, Jesus left with his disciples and crossed the Kidron Valley. On the other side there was an olive grove, and he and his disciples went into it. |
2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples. | 2 Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples. |
3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons. | 3 So Judas came to the grove, guiding a detachment of soldiers and some officials from the chief priests and Pharisees. They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons. |
4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth , and said unto them, Whom seek ye ? | 4 Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him, went out and asked them, "Who is it you want?" |
5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them. | 5 "Jesus of Nazareth," they replied. "I am he," Jesus said. (And Judas the traitor was standing there with them.) |
6 As soon then as he had said unto them , I am he, they went backward , and fell to the ground. | 6 When Jesus said, "I am he," they drew back and fell to the ground. |
7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye ? And they said , Jesus of Nazareth. | 7 Again he asked them, "Who is it you want?" And they said, "Jesus of Nazareth." |
8 Jesus answered , I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way : | 8 "I told you that I am he," Jesus answered. "If you are looking for me, then let these men go." |
9 That the saying might be fulfilled , which he spake , Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none. | 9 This happened so that the words he had spoken would be fulfilled: "I have not lost one of those you gave me." |
10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear . The servant's name was Malchus. | 10 Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest's servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant's name was Malchus.) |
11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it? | 11 Jesus commanded Peter, "Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?" |
12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him, | 12 Then the detachment of soldiers with its commander and the Jewish officials arrested Jesus. They bound him |
13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year. | 13 and brought him first to Annas, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year. |
14 Now Caiaphas was he , which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. | 14 Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jews that it would be good if one man died for the people. |
15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple : that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest. | 15 Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Because this disciple was known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the high priest's courtyard, |
16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. | 16 but Peter had to wait outside at the door. The other disciple, who was known to the high priest, came back, spoke to the girl on duty there and brought Peter in. |
17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith , I am not. | 17 "You are not one of his disciples, are you?" the girl at the door asked Peter. He replied, "I am not." |
18 And the servants and officers stood there , who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves : and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself . | 18 It was cold, and the servants and officials stood around a fire they had made to keep warm. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself. |
19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine. | 19 Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. |
20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort ; and in secret have I said nothing. | 20 "I have spoken openly to the world," Jesus replied. "I always taught in synagogues or at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret. |
21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me , what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said . | 21 Why question me? Ask those who heard me. Surely they know what I said." |
22 And when he had thus spoken , one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand , saying , Answerest thou the high priest so? | 22 When Jesus said this, one of the officials nearby struck him in the face. "Is this the way you answer the high priest?" he demanded. |
23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me? | 23 "If I said something wrong," Jesus replied, "testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?" |
24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest. | 24 Then Annas sent him, still bound, to Caiaphas the high priest. |
25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself . They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said , I am not. | 25 As Simon Peter stood warming himself, he was asked, "You are not one of his disciples, are you?" He denied it, saying, "I am not." |
26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off , saith , Did not I see thee in the garden with him? | 26 One of the high priest's servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, challenged him, "Didn't I see you with him in the olive grove?" |
27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew . | 27 Again Peter denied it, and at that moment a rooster began to crow. |
28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled ; but that they might eat the passover. | 28 Then the Jews led Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman governor. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness the Jews did not enter the palace; they wanted to be able to eat the Passover. |
29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said , What accusation bring ye against this man? | 29 So Pilate came out to them and asked, "What charges are you bringing against this man?" |
30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee. | 30 "If he were not a criminal," they replied, "we would not have handed him over to you." |
31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death : | 31 Pilate said, "Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law." "But we have no right to execute anyone," the Jews objected. |
32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled , which he spake , signifying what death he should die . | 32 This happened so that the words Jesus had spoken indicating the kind of death he was going to die would be fulfilled. |
33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews? | 33 Pilate then went back inside the palace, summoned Jesus and asked him, "Are you the king of the Jews?" |
34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me? | 34 "Is that your own idea," Jesus asked, "or did others talk to you about me?" |
35 Pilate answered , Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done ? | 35 "Am I a Jew?" Pilate replied. "It was your people and your chief priests who handed you over to me. What is it you have done?" |
36 Jesus answered , My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight , that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence. | 36 Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place." |
37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered , Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born , and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice. | 37 "You are a king, then!" said Pilate. Jesus answered, "You are right in saying I am a king. In fact, for this reason I was born, and for this I came into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me." |
38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all. | 38 "What is truth?" Pilate asked. With this he went out again to the Jews and said, "I find no basis for a charge against him. |
39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews? | 39 But it is your custom for me to release to you one prisoner at the time of the Passover. Do you want me to release 'the king of the Jews'?" |
40 Then cried they all again, saying , Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber. | 40 They shouted back, "No, not him! Give us Barabbas!" Now Barabbas had taken part in a rebellion. |

A simple (I hope) question arising out of my limited knowledge of ballasts in fluorescent light fixtures . . .
In determining the load that a fluorescent fixture contributes on a circuit, does the ballast figure in? That is, the load from 36 40W bulbs would just meet the safe "constant use" (80%) threshhold on a 15A circuit, but what about the ballasts in the fixtures? If ballasts make a contribution, where is the information to calculate it? |
Follow-Up Postings:
ez, Here is the extra power consumed by the ballasts. These figures are per each bulb: Magnetic Ballast(40w) = 6.0 watts Zink |
- Posted by jagermeister (My Page) on Wed, Jul 12, 06 at 9:08
Also, the amps that the ballast draws is always printed on the ballast case. In the case of the HD Sunpark ballasts, it's 1.0 amp. And that's probably a maximum figure at startup. |
