Hi I'm in alaska and as strange as it sounds I have maybe one month left before we get the 30 and 40 and below weather that I am sure will kill my potted minis. I have three choices; a barely heated garage (dry, east facing, 50-60's, (not readily accessible)) A heated office (dry west facing 70's) or a heated apartment (moist east facing 70's)
I have not kept minis before and I really like my plants. (Charlie Brown and the Ring of Fire are the best) any advice would be great. thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Ideally you want your roses to go dormant (lose their leaves and stop flowering) and stay that way until spring. Temperatures in the mid 20's or so are pretty good at accomplishing that. Do you have a 4th place perhaps that is in between the inside temperatures and the outside temperatures you mentioned? Do they have greenhouses in your area that rent out space to overwinter plants? |

I kept 62 in a garage under a house last year, It was actually too warm and they didn't go completely dormant. But all but 9 made it! I watered them about once a month if they were dry. But I think they are better off than in a warm house, I have not done well keeping them in the house for long periods of time. Lee |

Stop fertilizing now but keep watering them. Right before the petals fall, remove them manually but do not cut the spent blooms. This will help the plants go dormant. Do you have an unheated attached garage or another unheated space where the temps can be around 32 - 38F during the winter? After a few days of hard frosts but not freezes, water the pots well and then remove the foliage. In my climate this happens in early to mid November, but it will be sooner for you. Then slip the pots inside large black plastic garage bags. Do not tie the bags shut, just fold the open ends over - the roses need air. Prop the bagged roses up off a cold cement floor, especially if you will using your garage. I place mine on wooden boards. If you use your garage, place the bagged roses as far away from the large door as you can. I've spent the past 2 winters as a snow bird in Florida for 3 months each year and the roses came thru those winters without watering. The plastic bags help keep the potting mix just moist. I have mostly tender old teas and chinas in pots but I do have a couple minis in containers including Sweet Chariot in a hanging basket. :-) |

Hi All, After hours and hours of searching and reading, I have come to posting, on what is clearly a well-discussed topic over the years.
I am replacing a 30" Frigidaire Professional Series all gas range. I originally thought DCS. I had wanted self-cleaning, but not for $1000 more. Local dealer does not sell DCS, which brings me, by eliminating Capital, Berta, GE and Electrolux, and with the salesman's recommendation, to the Wolf and Thermador Pro Harmony. I prefer the look of the Thermador with its big window, and its 3x rolly racks and slightly larger internal depth. The Pro Grand door is much nicer than the Pro Harmony but I don't have the space to do a range that deep. I prefer the Wolf burners - they look more versatile. I am fairly stuck. Thinking that I'll get Wolf based on GW reviews and compromise on aesthetics. Should I worry about the interior depth, given that I'm sticking with just a 30" range? Next, the under-cabinet hood: Salesman recommended Best by Broan with mesh filters not baffles as it will be quieter at low speeds. I prefer the look of the XOT (with baffles), but the lights are at the back only. Any opinion on which is better? Thanks! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Surprised you haven't gotten much feedback. IIRC, the Thermador achieves low simmer by turning the burner on and off - some users don't like the clicking noise, it doesn't bother others at all. The Wolf AG, in my opinion, is one of the least electronic of the ranges available - so it should be pretty reliable. Can't help with the vent, I have the baffle, and they are pretty easy to clean in the dishwasher and like the look. I have not heard that they are any louder and I thought the noise was from the air movement and the blower, but can't be sure. |
I am unaware of any effect that would cause a baffle to make more noise at low speed than a [clean] mesh filter. One expects air turbulence for the same flow rate to be greater with a mesh filter. Further, baffles make very little noise at low speed. I can only hear, under quiet conditions, a bit of motor rumble from my roof mounted fan. (Scaling my Wolf Pro Island hood to 30 inches width would scale my fan to a nominal 750 cfm at full speed, or maybe a real flow rate with pressure losses of 450 cfm. There is only modest baffle noise even at full speed.) It might be safe to observe that mesh filters load up with lint and grease, so once fairly well blocked, the air flow would decrease and whatever turbulence noise there was would attenuate with the reduced flow. Under normal use baffles are immune to blockage of this type. The important factors are a hood large enough in aperture area to encompass and capture the rising expanding effluent, large enough in aperture volume to support the air flow rate in containing and expelling the effluent, and sufficient air flow rate. If the OP chooses a mesh filter hood, I recommend close attention to filter cleaning, possibly on a weekly basis depending on observed filter impairment rate. kas |

We have an old Theramador vent hood with mesh filters and a 1000 cfm external motor after a long run. Noisy hood and chronically sticky mesh in spite of dutch cleaning. Next time, hopefully soon on this kitchen upgrade, I'm going with baffles. As to Wolf vs Thermador, which I too have reviewed/eyed, my consensus is for Wolf. I had a Thermador cooktop before it broke, still have their old uneven heat ovens which work. Still, my products are/were old when we moved in. |
Am still agonizing a little and haven't quite placed the order, so after a little break I came back now and found your responses! Hooray! I decided upon the Wolf AG 30" range + XOP hood, and from your responses, all is well with that choice. Thanks! I am glad that the baffles are fine, they look much better. Still can't understand why a no bells and whistles range (apart from the brand) costs SO much! I am hoping I won't miss my old range with it's warming drawer that I use so often. |

Jan 29th 2011 4:53PM You can't do any of the starting zone quests after a race change, because of the Realm Firsts to 85. If you could do the quests, someone could have race changed, done the quests, dinged 85, and gotten a Realm First way before everyone else.
As far as why we can't do the starting zone quests now that all the realm firsts have been handed out, I do not know.
However, I DO know that my once-night-elf-now-worgen druid wants a top hat. =)

Sea Shepherd's Paul Watson steps down as captain but still sails against Japanese whalers
Environmental gadfly and fugitive Paul Watson is back in the Antarctic (Southern) Ocean and awaiting the Japanese whaling fleet for his ninth campaign against what the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society deems illegal whaling.
This time, though, he told the Georgia Straight, he has stepped down voluntarily from his duties as captain of the SS Steve Irwin and president of Sea Shepherd U.S.; he has also removed himself, at least temporarily, from his duties as a director of Sea Shepherd Australia.
The changes are the result of a December U.S. Court of Appeals decision in Washington state that overturned a February 2012 ruling won by Sea Shepherd. That victory came against an attempted preliminary injunction brought against the society by Japan's so-called Institute for Cetacean Research, a cover for that country's government-sponsored whaling, allegedly for scientific research.
The latest injunction prohibits Sea Shepherd from getting closer than 450 metres to any Japanese whaling-fleet vessel in the Southern Ocean.
In one of several interruption-plagued interview attempts by satellite phone before the connection finally severed, Watson told the Straight from the bridge of the Steve Irwin in the Southern Ocean on the evening of January 9: "As a U.S. citizen named in that court order, I cannot be involved in any [prohibited antiwhaling] action.…and I've stepped down from the board of Sea Shepherd USA and Sea Shepherd Australia."
The latter organization is the main director of the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society's controversial and well-known eight-year campaign against Japanese whaling in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary, a 50-million-square-kilometre area around Antarctica established in 1994 by the International Whaling Commission as a commercial-whaling-free zone.
Watson—who said that he had sailed from New Zealand four days previous and had "crossed the 60-degree [S] latitude"—stressed that he will be acting "as an observer, but I will not be breaking that injunction".
He pointed out to the Straight that Sea Shepherd has two Dutch-owned and -flagged vessels as well as two Australian-flagged and -owned ships, both of which he said are not subject to the terms of the U.S.-issued court order.
Before he could answer a question about whether that meant he would be planning some antiwhaling tactics that would see him removed from those vessels before they closed within 450 metres of the Japanese fleet—which Watson said he expected to encounter on or around January 21: "They're far to the north"—the phone call terminated and could not be resumed despite repeated attempts to reestablish the connection.
Prior to that, Watson noted of the organization he founded decades ago: "For 35 years, the Sea Sheperd Conservation Society has done what it has done without injuring anybody or being convicted of any felony."
Watson wrote for the Straight in the 1970s and corresponded from the earliest Greenpeace antisealing campaigns in Atlantic Canada. Those dispatches were titled "Shepherds of the Labrador Front", from which he fashioned the name of his present society. (His Straight ID card is pictured at the top of this article.)
In Germany last July, Watson allegedly skipped bail after 70 days of house arrest after being arrested in May by authorities in response to a Costa Rican warrant concerning a high-seas incident with a fishing boat 10 years ago.
Sea Shepherd alleged at the time that the Costa Rican government was acting at the behest of Japan, which, it claimed, would attempt to extradite Watson to Japan if he was shipped from Germany to the Central American country.
Germany issued a warrant for Watson's arrest, and international police agency Interpol issued a "red notice" alert for the activist's detection.
At a news conference in Hobart, Australia, on January 7, Sea Shepherd Australia announced that Watson's captaincy of the Steve Irwin would be assumed by Capt. Siddharth Chakravarty and that Sea Shepherd U.S. board member Marnie Gaede would take over his duties for that organization. It was also reported that former Australian senator Bob Brown would direct this year's Southern Ocean antiwhaling campaign, dubbed Operation Zero Tolerance.
Good on him at least his got the Balls to stand for whats right.
As for Costa Rica issuing a Warrant on the behest of rich old Japan its time for Canadians to wake up and boycott Costa Rica and any Japanese Brand / Company.
Vote with your Dollars.
The specific items before the court involve issues of safety at sea under several international treaties such as SUA (Rome Convention) and UNCLOS. Though the US is not a signator to UNCLOS, they do support most of the provisions of that treaty including the portions on piracy. The US has far reaching power to extend jurisdiction to enforce these treaties and uphold their obligations under international law.
It is illegal to both interfere or attempt to interfere with the navigation of a vessel on the high seas under SUA. Both ramming and propfouling are arguably such interferences. The specific wording of SUA is here, see Art. 3 http://www.admiraltylawguide.com/conven/suppression1988.html
The specific US law that pertains to this is found in US Code, title 18, ss2280. Note the list of offences and the far reaching jurisdiction claimed by the US. http://uscode.regstoday.com/18USC_CHAPTER111.aspx#18USC2280
The Netherlands and Australia are both party to the same treaty.
Kevin is correct, a ''felony'' is a US term, watson can't say he hasn't been convicted of crimes equivalent to a felony in several countries.
Watson has never said his Not subject to US Law and the US has not issued an Arrest Warrant for him currently.
Watson is following to the letter of the US Courts Ruling of the Injunction of not approaching closer than 450 Meters to the Japanese WHALING Fleet.
The "Warrant" issued by Costa Rica is highly suspect as is the 'Red' Notice which is usually reserved for Mass Murders, Crimes against Humanity and Jihadi Terrorist Leaders.
Watson is CLEARLY not in that group, in fact Watson has NEVER killed ANYONE!
What did Japan offer Costa Rica in return for that 'favour'.
Quoting the Criminal Code of a Country does not mean someone is guilty of breaking it.
Again the US has NOT issued ANY Criminal Charges against Watson ONLY a Civil Injunction not to be closer than 450 Meters to the Japanese Whaling Fleet.
THe SAME Japanese Whaling Fleet USING LOOPHOLES IN THE LAW TO HUNT AND KILL WHALES! For "Scientific' SUSHI!
So once again we get to watch millions of donor dollars spent on what amounts to Paul's own Captain Ahab delusions about saving whales. 35 years of this nonsense, faked assassinations, reality tv garbage, and media noise.
Strategy? Hardly, just an overweight psychotic media loon who is giving the Kardashians a run for their media domination over the next few months.
Keep jigging fat man, we love it when you throw your butter!
No I am not a judge or any sort of govt official. What I don't think has been made clear is that sea shepherd.org is responsible for any actions taken by any member of the crew, not just Paul, Paul is just trying to save himself but the org is still in danger if they violate the injunction. It doesn't matter who is at the helm the org financed this campaign and will be held accountable.
You are correct this is a civil case for now, if they violate this injunction that could change quickly.
I've known about the Costa Rica charges for years and wondered why they hadn't acted sooner, he had a court date in CR in June of 2006 but did not attend, now he acts surprised? I don't know who he thinks he's fooling, you maybe, the courts will not be fooled.

What remains open to the public are a few of the North Family buildings, including the Brethren's Workshop, the Wash House, and a small Dwelling House. I see an exhibition, created by local schoolchildren, on the Shakers who made Mount Lebanon famous for its cloaks, seeds, and furniture. But the place feels lonely and forgotten.
That is about to change. Twenty minutes south-west, toward the rolling farm country of Old Chatham, New York, the Shaker Museum & Library beckons. Housed in several beautifully laid out barns, converted into a museum space in 1950, is the world's premier collection of Shaker artifacts and archives, though the site itself had nothing to do with the Shakers. Eighty percent of collector John S. Williams Sr.'s machinery, tools, textiles, furnishings, oval boxes, and manuscripts originally came from Mount Lebanon. With Mount Lebanon listed by the World Monuments Fund in 2003 as one of the 100 most endangered sites in the world, the Shaker Museum's board recently voted to acquire the North Family buildings—including the massive stone ruins of the five-story Dairy Barn—and move the Williams collection back to the village from whence it came. When the mammoth project—which includes reconstructing the barn and turning it into a museum—is finished, at least a portion of Mount Lebanon will have been restored to its former glory and another rich Shaker site created.
As a child who swam and fished in Shaker mill ponds by day and slept in a room rimmed with Shaker pegs by night, I had heard many rumors and half-truths about the sect. Local farmers, suspicious of the Shakers and their strange ways, used to call the ceremonial site in the woods above the Tyringham settlement the Devil's Playground. Bizarre rites, drunkenness, and debauchery were said to have taken place up there. Rounding out the intriguing tales, there was the rumor that on a freezing January night in 1858, 23 children averaging 14 years of age ran away from the Tyringham Shakers, never to be seen or heard from again. With equally chilling stories awaiting me farther north, I persuade my husband to join me for the New Hampshire leg of my tour.
From the Berkshires, a three-hour drive up Interstate 91 through Massachusetts college towns and past crunchy Vermont food co-ops deposits us at Mascoma Lake, just a half-mile or so from the doors of the Shaker Inn in Enfield, New Hampshire. It is past midnight, but even by moonlight the enormous structure—known to the Shakers as the Great Stone Dwelling—is impressive. Designed by a well-known Boston architect named Ammi Burnham Young and built between 1837 and 1841 out of locally quarried granite, the six-story building measures 62 feet from ground to bell tower. It is the largest dwelling the Shakers ever built, with room enough to house 150 Believers. Inside, there is scarcely a nail to be found, though 800 drawers, 500 built-in cupboards, 182 windows, 200 feet of black-cherry banister, and a complicated system of flues to vent smoke from lamps and odors from chamber-pot cupboards were fashioned by hand to outfit the interior.
We push open the front door and find no one. The innkeeper has gone to bed, and we walk the wide, empty halls, trying to pick one of the 20-foot-square sleeping chambers. All of the doors are open. We are, it seems, the only guests. I remember from my reading that one of the rooms is said to be haunted by the ghosts of indentured children who wanted to leave the Shakers but couldn't. After coffee the next morning, Janet, the innkeeper, leads a private tour with her spaniel Mojo in tow. She regales us with tales of eerie sightings, like that of a tall, spectral figure dressed in a long cloak who was apparently standing at the top of the stairs when two guests bumped into him on their way out to dinner. The patrons were regulars; she is sure the story is true. After all, in 1863, outside the doors of this very building, a deranged veteran of the Civil War who'd been denied the right to reclaim his children had murdered Caleb Dyer, beloved Trustee of Enfield and himself the son of a woman who spent her life trying to extract her children from the firm grip of Shaker indenture. She adds that Mojo often barks at windows and doors, making a fuss for no reason, and on quiet, slow nights during the week, Janet herself has sensed that she was in spiritual company. Taking her daughter through the attic workrooms one day, she opened several built-in drawers in one of the rooms to demonstrate the quality of Shaker millwork. They were alone in the huge stone building and yet, minutes later, on their way past the room to go back downstairs, the two women found all of the drawers slammed shut. Convinces me. (The property is now closed, taken over by the nearby Enfield Shaker Museum. Beginning in April, visitors can tour the Great Stone Dwelling, but it will no longer function as an inn.)
I consider myself a skeptic by nature, but I feel the presence of "others" around me the whole time I'm here, and when I try to talk my husband into sneaking up to the attic at midnight so that we can catch a glimpse of a Shaker ghost-child, he blanches and plunges his nose resolutely into his bedtime reading.
Earlier in the day, however, he consented to driving 45 minutes on back roads to Canterbury. We passed chunks of New Hampshire granite set into fields and forests like enormous tombstones. Turning a corner in the road, our eyes were drawn to a long green hillside capped by a series of white clapboard houses ashimmer in the sunlight.
Canterbury was a prominent Shaker village for 200 years and stands as a remarkable—and picturesque—example of how Shaker life evolved over time. The last Shaker resident, Sister Ethel Hudson, died in 1992. Peering into her modest quarters—at her card table, her television set, the small stuffed animal on her bureau holding a sign that reads, YOU LITTLE DEVIL!—one grasps that she, unlike the participants in the time-frozen costume drama that unfolds daily at Hancock, was a real person. She baked and prayed and remembered the night Canterbury was first illuminated by electric light, but she also had a sharp, mischievous sense of humor and was addicted to One Life to Live. Go, Ethel. It is the continuing strength of her presence here that makes me feel, for the first time ever, a real human connection to Shaker life.
From the surprising vulgarity of early Shaker paint colors (orange, red, and yellow in the sleeping rooms!) to the famous Shaker-style Ivy League letter sweaters produced for decades by the Sisters at Canterbury, the site inspires one to think of the Shakers as people, not weird religious dinosaurs or theme-park mascots. In this austere Canterbury compound, a group long celebrated in books, articles, and Ken Burns documentaries for its discipline, ingenuity, piousness, and innate (if unintentional) sense of design finally comes alive, ghosts and all.

Keep a track of Marya D., she is going to become an addition to the list of famous pornstars on the planet.
The porn career of Marya D. started with a solo fingering video which did not make such an impact on the audience. It is when she grew up a little, that Marya D. became the force that she is now. Hardly a day or week goes by, without a site releasing a video featuring Marya D.. She is making the most of her great looks and her all round ability to do it all, whether it be a cum-shot video, or a gang bang.

In Part 1, we covered materials and hardware.
In Part 2, we covered tools.
In Part 3, we showed you how to set those tools up for webbing.
In Part 4, you learned the crucial Box X stitch.
Now it's time to put it all together and create your own projects. To demonstrate a project from start to finish, and explain some things you'll want to keep in mind as you work on yours, I'll make a dog collar from scratch. Whether or not you own a dog, watching this project being made will be useful, because a collar uses the most common webbing hardware parts: Squeeze-release buckles, a webbing slide for adjustability and a D-ring you can shackle things to. Using these same techniques you can make plenty of non-dog-related items, like the box-carrying harness I showed you in the first video. Once you understand how it all comes together, you can design your own items and start making them.
Hit the jump for some review tips.
Things to remember:
- With cotton webbing, always keep the unfinished edges inside your project, and even sandwiched between two other layers if possible. If your machine can handle three layers of cotton webbing, you can double-fold it and stitch the end shut to prevent fraying.
- Always ensure that your hardware has been slid onto your webbing, prior to sewing, in the correct order. If you don't, you'll be getting your money's worth out of that stitch ripper tool.
- When fastening hardware inside of a webbing loop, sew as close as you possibly can to the hardware (while still keeping the two layers compressed) to make that loop as tight as you can. If your loop is too loose, the hardware will have excessive play. That play can in turn cause the webbing to fray at the edges of the loop.
- Study the design of existing webbing-based items to see how they were constructed. A lot of times you'll find smart little details, like the example I showed in the video with the end-tab being on the inside of the collar.
- Think about which direction any forces or friction that might act upon your webbing are coming from, and ask yourself what would happen if a joint failure were to occur at a specific point. Design your object accordingly. The good news is with a Box X stitch you're probably not going to experience a catastrophic failure, where the entire joint gives way at once, but it's just good design to anticipate and plan for it.
To state the obvious: If you've never done this before, sure, your first few projects are likely going to suck—but so what? If you really want to work with webbing, the best way to get good at it is to do it over and over again. Using a sewing machine is like using any other tool—get the reps in, and your confidence and competence will grow.
If your object failed, refine the design, examine your technique, and go back to the drawing board.
For someone like me whose only design school instruction was in working with rigid materials, it's really satisfying to be able to create things out of webbing. (And even more satisfying that it can be done fairly cheaply.)
The first one of you that makes something cool out of webbing, puts it up on their Coroflot page with good images and lets me know about it, is going to get a handsome Flotspotting write-up!

The main difference is CP is pretty much any kind of concentration where you don't really work in one facet of the organization. Wherein an internship, you would more likely be concentrated in your field of study, for example, if you're a finance major, your internship would be in a financial area and if you're a marketing major, you'd work in marketing, etc.
Hope this helps,

Beginning Plans to Repair Roads in Place
CEDAR RAPIDS, IA (CBS 2/FOX 28)--Plans to begin repairing streets in Cedar Rapids are now underway just one month after voters approved the local options sales tax.
The Public Works department has put together a priority program that allows them to get to work as early as next year.
The idea is to repair patched and cracked roads like this one beginning next year--but it's also about doing that in the most cost efficient way. That's what the "quick start" streets program is all about.
Nearing the end of their service life, Officials say that's the bottom line when it comes to many streets in Cedar Rapids.
Now with money from the local options sales tax, repairing them gets underway.
"We've identified projects for the street improvement program for 2014 that we're going to be able to add into our normal capital improvements program, said David Elgin, Cedar Rapids Public Works Director.
It's called "the quick start program" and includes a priority list of 86 street projects.
Those streets are the ones that have been reviewed to ensure that utility companies will not be tearing them up anytime soon.
"We want to get projects ready to start the construction season and continue throughout even though the revenue for the program don't show up until later on in the year, Elgin said.
Right now the money will come from other programs which will then be reimbursed once funds from lost kick in in July.
Elgin says they will also look at the entire city to put together plans for other roads that will be repaired in the next ten years. City leaders are on board.
"We wanted to get off to a real good start and get prepared for the construction season, said Mayor Ron Corbett.
"The community is going to be better off with this improved road program that we've put in place thanks to the voters, he said.

This past week the children explored their sense of touch, taste, smell, sight, and hearing. Let me show you what the children found in the "sense of hearing" discovery center…
The children played a listening matching game. In a basket were 35mm canisters filled with items such as corn, dice, and salt. There were two of each sound canisters.
The children shook the canisters and then used their sense of hearing to find the two cannisters that sounded just the same.
I noticed that it didn't take long for the children to figure out that they could also match the canisters by weight rather than by sound.
The children also listened to recordings of sounds from Play 2 Grow and used their sense of hearing to guess what the sounds were.
We didn't make this a right or wrong answer game – instead, we just focused on listening and let the children guess what they thought they had heard.

Research Overview
I am a comparative animal physiologist and thus my research covers a range of species and taxa (crabs, fish, birds mammals). Virtually all research projects conducted by my laboratory investigate adaptations of animals to extreme or variable environments. The science I conduct typically contains both a field and laboratory component. Over the years, I have segued from more basic, terrestrial biased investigations, to also include physiological research to applied and basic marine physiology and biomedical physiology.

Television, movies, and more fill the vastness of this entertainment company. NBCUniversal Media is a leading media conglomerate anchored by its broadcast network NBC, with more than 200 affiliate stations (including 10 that are company-owned), and its Universal Studios feature film division. Other broadcasting operations owned by NBCUniversal include Spanish-language network Telemundo and a portfolio of cable TV channels that includes Bravo, E! Entertainment, Syfy, G4, USA Network, Oxygen, and news channel MSNBC. It also owns online portal iVillage and has a stake in video site Hulu. Comcast, the country's #1 cable systems operator, owns 51% of NBCUniversal and has agreed to acquire General Electric's 49% stake.
Change in Company Type
In early 2013 Comcast announced plans to take full ownership of NBCUniversal for nearly $17 billion. There was already a structure in place for Comcast to eventually take full control, but stronger than expected growth from the joint venture accelerated those plans. For GM, the divestiture is part of CEO Jeff Immelt's strategy to focus on industrial operations.
Geographic Reach
NBC programming is available throughout the US and in much of Canada. The company operates through US offices in New York, Los Angeles, New Jersey, Miami, and an international office in London. The media company's content is distributed to more than 200 countries around the world.
In addition to its wholly-owned network and cable channels, NBCUniversal is a partner in both The Weather Channel and A&E Television (AETN).
Universal Parks & Resorts, the movie-themed amusement park and resort operations owned by Universal Studios, has seen attendance rates sag as a result of the sour economy.
NBCUniversal, like other media conglomerates such as Time Warner and News Corporation, is focused on using its numerous distribution channels to maximize the profit potential of its creative content. However, the company has been beleaguered by uneven performance at the box office and low ratings for its broadcast network. The recession has also had a negative impact on advertising revenue and home entertainment DVD sales.
NBCUniversal has turned significant focus toward digital entertainment and online media distribution to capitalize on new technologies. The company has an almost 30% stake in video streaming site Hulu.

(Attica, OH) What a difference seven days can make. A week ago Brandon Martin tangled with Dean Jacobs and ended up crashing at Attica Raceway Park . On Friday, Martin dominated the O'Reilly Auto Parts 410 Sprints, leading all 30 laps – including several restarts with Jacobs on his rear bumper – to earn his second career win on Edward Jones of Clyde/Mike Neill Financial Advisor/Bud Light Night. "I tell you what, he (Jacobs) wasn't going to pass me…that's for damn sure. He took out a fast race car last week and it killed us…it's been a long week. These guys got me back out here…my car is torn up bad," said Martin beside his Burns Electric/Oak Ridge Festival backed #9x. Martin, whose shop is literally within view of Attica Raceway Park , tried for 11 years before getting his first win at his hometown track on July 1. Now he has two wins in one season, both coming on Kistler Racing Products Fremont Attica Sprint Title (FAST) nights. He becomes the first repeat winner of the 2011 season at Attica Raceway Park . "I've got a lot of catchin' up to do…we've been doing this for a long time. It's been tough…I've had a lot of great people behind me…a lot of the race track guys and people in the area of Attica. It's good to be here tonight with Stan Cortad (car owner). Jimmy Havens and Rick Benson work real hard on this thing," said Martin in the Engine Pro Victory Lane . "I did a lot of praying this week and it helped me out…someone was looking out for me this week." Caleb Griffith and Paige Polyak banged wheels coming to the checkered in the Fremont Fence 305 Sprint feature, with both spinning across the start-finish line. It was wreckers AND checkers for Griffith, who earned his second victory of the season. Griffith, a former track champion, also scored his first career Attica win on July 1. "We were racing hard there and I gave her the slider that at the end and we just ran out of room. She (Polyak) ran a heck of a race…I really have to hand it to her," said Griffith beside his Al Davis Carpet/Balleville EZ Shop/Fremont Fence backed #40 that sat in the Engine Pro Victory Lane hooked to a wrecker. "A lot of times when you're running second it's easier to see what you need to do…I've given up a lot of races like that." Defending national UMP late model champion Rusty Schlenk dueled with Devin Shiels through most of the Fultz Fabrications and Speed Shop Late Model feature before pulling away late for his second win of the season at Attica . It was his 11th career victory at " Ohio 's Finest Racing" speedplant as he now has 10 overall victories in 2011. "I was nervous starting 10th..the redraw nearly killed me tonight. I was a little tight in the heat so we freed it up for the feature and the car was awesome. I have to thank all my guys. We finally made the right calls for once here tonight," said Schlenk beside his Micro Armor Lubricants/Main & Company/Lazer Chassis/Complete Truck Repair backed #91.

Frazier Campbell has revealed there was double delight for him on Wednesday as he became a father as he was making his England debut.
The Sunderland striker, 24, was introduced 79 minutes into the Three Lions' 3-2 friendly defeat by Holland at Wembley.
However, any disappointment at the result was eased after the final whistle when Campbell discovered he had become a dad.
He Tweeted: "Delighted to earn my first international cap and the very same moment I became a dad to Isla rose campbell! £cloud9."
It completed an amazing few weeks for the former Manchester United man, who has battled back to full fitness after 18 months out with a serious knee injury.

Friendly staff. Tight turn and steep hill getting in and out of the park. Walk to some parts of city. Lots of noise from train adjacent to park. - Tranquilty1
Nice folks running this park. Very courteous. The previous reviews are accurate. Wi-Fi worked in the park for 2 of the 6 days we were there then quit. Its was available only sitting at the front door of the office. Mentioned it to management but they said its the way it is. Noise from the RR and nearby airport are issues here. Homeless people moved through the park one evening trying to sell used coolers. Probably the best thing going in Anchorage for camping though. Convenient to many Anchorage attractions. - americanrascal
Stayed both here and at the Golden Nugget (GN). The park has older infrastructure and is located on Alaska RR land, so not much incentive to improve. Compared to GN the roads are much wider and the site slots are angled so easy to get into, but they are narrower. Setting is nicer than GN, but neighborhood is industrial and lots of homeless running around (though the park will call the RR police if one enters). Easy walk to downtown. At least one freight train a night goes by and tracks are right behind the park. For class Cs a good park, for anyone with large units and slides it is just like GN not much room to move around. But in Anchorage you really only have two choices and this could be the lesser of 2 evils. - sheltieRV

Military campground on Fort Richardson. The area is nice, the sites are OK and easy to park in. The camp hosts sites are a dump! Have never seen anything like this on a military base. Shouldn't be allowed. They have junk cars, trash everywhere on their sites. The civil engineers took all the water faucets off for the winter then "lost" over half, so less than 1/2 the sites have water. They will not allow you go buy a faucet and put on. Sad to say this is how they treat their park and the military that depend on being able to stay here. At least should have reduced the cost! - ICU RN

We stayed here because the park has hot showers. However, from the beginning, this park scared us. Many of the people camping here appeared to be homeless and our site was filled with broken auto glass. We were afraid to leave the trailer here for fear it would be broken into. Staff was friendly. We left after one night to find a safer place. - Vicky
Only open a few days a week, and what a dump - bigrigrvingdotcom
Nothing special. Only 2-3 pull through sites. Not level. Old city park, that is basically run-down and in an old part of town. OK for a night or so. Not worth the price, but not much else worthwhile in Anchorage. - grizd

Lovely location, but not maintained. Massive and deep potholes in the road through the park. I don't know if a big rig could make it. There were stumps in the middle of sites so it was very difficult to park, and they were very uneven. It could be a great place; it's close to the water, in a forest with large private sites. But it needs a lot of work. We stayed there because it was close to Anchorage for returning our RV in the morning. That would be the only reason to stay. I wouldn't stay here again. - foster33
This campground is located about 16 miles south of Anchorage at mile marker 101 on the Seward highway. It is a good location but in need of a lot of work. The gravel road into and through the campground had potholes 8 and 9 inches deep and 2 to 4 feet round. It is a narrow winding one way road. Big rigs can get in if very careful. There where a lot of trees down laying all around. It look like they may have been cut and just left to rot. I did talk to a state park worker and he said the campground is going to get a complete makeover. I would not stay here without checking it out to see if it had a makeover. - BLT101
This campground is permanently closed! - rwise

Stayed 3 weeks at Creekwood RV Park. Had every thing we needed the place was close to everything and had major TV and Wi-Fi. If you stay for a week you pay for 6 days and get the 7th free. Had a great time visiting with the kids and grandkids. - Grandpa Frank
Open area of gravel. The sites are almost touching the next one. Area of town is a bit shady. Is OK for a few nights while in town. - ICU RN
We chose this park because it was advertised as being close to major attractions. It was not close to anything we wanted to see. We had to take a cab to the downtown area. On initial impact, the park is very old and run down. Many of the park users are permanent residents, living in old beat up rusty RVs, cluttered with junk and debris. The sites are small, with no eye appeal, basically a gravel parking lot. No picnic table. The hookups work, but the water hookup is hot, apparently heated for winter but heater left on. The washrooms need a lot of TLC, but at least appeared clean. The smell, on the other hand, was awful, like a sewer backup. The office staff were polite and helpful. The office was neat and clean. It's way overpriced. - lymm

A large RV Park in the city. The only thing going for it is it's a block from Costco! We spent 4 days here with a Winnebago Caravan. This is the first park we've been in that caused us to question Good Sam's Inspection and Standards and Winnebago's. The sites are close together (look at their own web site photos); ours had deep depressions which we considered unsafe; roads uneven; the laundry room was filthy; Wi-Fi unreliable; on our slides we cover the sharp corners with foam. Went on a day tour, returned, found them stolen. Gunshots at night. Read previous postings. If you have children, beware. We would NOT use this park again. - TrekNsee
Rate reflects weekly rate. Park is convenient to all of Anchorage but the surroundings are not the nicest. Some sites are tight and somewhat short. They squeezed 40' motorhomes into much smaller sites when a caravan arrived. Our site was not particularly level and was right next to a very busy road so was noisy during busy times of the day. Wi-Fi worked well for the most part. Over the air TV signals are abundant. A couple of hours after we arrived several police cars and police with guns drawn surrounded an RV and had a standoff with the occupant. He wound up going to jail and his RV was towed out of the park. At 3 AM the next morning I heard 8 rounds of gunshots from the neighboring trailer park and the SWAT team showed up for that one. A few days later, again at 3 AM a few more gunshots were heard from that area. Staff was great despite the neighborhood. Great shopping nearby for re-stocking your cabinets. Not too sure if we would return simply because of the area. - Bob & Stephanie
The office staff was nice. Good location with shopping close. Took us 10 minutes to get into pull-through site with help from neighbor as roads are narrow and sites are not angled. We have a 41 foot motor home and this was the hardest site to access in 10 years of travel due to location of trees or very large rocks guarding utilities. As stated in past reviews, Internet was non-existent. We stayed one night instead of the five we planned. - Lovetheview

Has anyone used the cloning machines? I want to use it for roses, shrubs, etc....would like some feedback, please.
Thanks, Kris |
Follow-Up Postings:
I don't know what you mean by cloning machine....is this a proprietary device? I have an aeroponic set-up and can clone your grandmother's toenails :^) and I think this is true generally for hydroponic systems. |
Here is a website where they are sold: http://www.4hydroponics.com/hydroponics/aeroponics2.asp?ItemNo=Aagri |
I'm sure it would work great. It seems like a waste of money though. You can easily build one cheaply from a rubbermaid tub, aquarium aerater, and net pots or styrofoam cups. You could even add a water pump attached to misters if you wanted to go all out, although that isn't necessary. Do an internet search for an "aeroponic cloner". I wouldn't shy away from sites that are primarily geared toward illegal crops. You can learn a lot from those guys, even if you plan on growing vegetables. |
I built one on advice from 'those guys'. Two Sterilite tubs, some styrofoam cups, silver duct tape and an ultrasonic mist maker. I'm thinking of adding an aquarium bubbler for more Oxygen. |

The Kid From NYC Comes To Granby, Helps The Little School That Did
John Buser wanted to make a point to his son, Brett, about a basketball game and he ended up with one of those intensely personal moments that help carve a young man's future.
It was in the days and hours leading into Granby's state title game when Buser looked his boy in the eyes and said, "You win this game, it's the rest of your life. You win this game, rest of your life you can hang out with these kids on this date every year and talk about it forever.
"Or it's just another game."
This would not be just another game.
For anyone who gathered Saturday morning for the Class S championship, the first game in a day of basketball that would stretch past 10 p.m., this game will be remembered as much more. For Brett Buser and Michael Noyes, for coach Wally Hansen and Granby, well, John Buser was right. The Bears, who erased a 21-point second half-deficit to pull out a heart-pounding 83-81 double-overtime victory over Weaver, will talk about this one forever.
"A great game," Noyes said, "a truly great game."
Granby had fallen behind 51-31 with 2:44 left in the third quarter when Noyes hit the first of four threes during a 24-4 run. He would tie the game at 55 with the last of those threes with 3:49 left in the regulation. From there the game, only the second double OT in boys state championship history, would take on epic highs and lows.
Buser eventually would hit a three-pointer to tie the game with 3.4 seconds remaining in regulation With Noyes [19 points] and Tanner Gibson [17] fouled out, Buser would essentially take over the game in overtime. Controlling the ball, driving to the hoop, hitting floaters, he wasn't finished until he stole the ball with 28 seconds left in the second overtime and hit a final free throw.
"Brett loves the spotlight," Hansen said. "He's a championship-style player."
"That was so much fun," Brett said. "It was just crazy."
Yes, this is the story of an incredible state championship game. Yet it also is the story of how a basketball team in a small town accepted a New York kid into its fold for his last year of high school. It is a story that doesn't have to work out. Sometimes pettiness can take over. Sometimes jealousies can make young players and their parents act less than generous of spirit. Noyes and Carlin Champion [15 points, eight rebounds] deserve highs marks.
"Carlin and me are captains this year and we try to include everyone," Noyes said. "We had fun this year, a great team right off the bat. He was welcomed. He played fall ball with us. We played at the Y with him. So we were used to playing with him going into the season. The chemistry was there."
This isn't the easiest thing in the world for a young guy transferring from the big city, either. Buser had played three years at St. Francis Prep in Queens. He didn't play much. He's a gym rat, the kid who's not going home until you turn off the lights and chase him out. He needed to play.
"We just didn't think that would happen at St. Francis Prep," John Buser said. "His coach and him didn't see eye to eye."
John had brought Brett to clinics in New York when he was too young to compete. He was only 3, but he swears he dribbled the ball better than kids who were 8 and 9. The bottom line is Dawn Antonuzzo and John Buser may have been divorced, but they've kept their son's best interests in heart. They made the call for him to live with Dawn in Granby.
"He was playing AAU," Antonuzzo said. "He brought his CYO team to a [Brooklyn-Queens] Diocesan championship [with St. Pancras]. For some reason, his high school wasn't playing him.
"It's a tough transition for someone his age to transfer. But we pulled him out and brought him into Granby and it was probably the best decision we ever made."
Hansen knew by June that Buser would transfer.
"What I didn't know was what he was about and how good he was," Hansen said. "I saw him for like 30 seconds and I'm thinking this kid can play."
He played summer AAU in Connecticut. He spent time with his future teammates.
"I hadn't wanted to move at first, I was a little nervous," Buser said. "My mom said it would be better for me. I had faith in her. I played with the guys over the summer, and it was a great experience. Basketball has gotten me way more friends at Granby."
You really have to see the three at work. They ooze Queens. It's classic.
"They're great," Noyes said. "Their family is so intense. I'm so glad Brett came."
"Everybody embraced the situation," Hansen said, "And this is what happens when you embrace it and play team basketball."
What happened on this Saturday was fairly extraordinary. Weaver forced Granby into 15 first half turnovers. The Beavers were too fast, applied too much pressure. Freshman Ke'Andre Fair, who is going to play important college ball some day, was putting his imprint on this one. Down 23-8 after one quarter and 15 at halftime, Granby looked like they were totally outclassed.
"Coach gave us a very motivational speech how this is the last game the seniors will ever play for Granby," Buser said.
"There were some heads down," Hansen said. "I told them, 'Let's play the best 16 minutes of our life and see what happens."
"I'll be honest, down 19 at halftime, we were nervous," Noyes said. "But we picked each other up and that starts with defense. Our heart was there. Suddenly, we couldn't miss a shot."
Noyes started hitting three after three. Each one, Hansen said, was big as big can be. And then he fouled out with nine seconds to go. Carlton Randolph both his free throws. Weaver was up 58-55. The Beavers chose not to foul. Buser raced up court. He split the defense.
"I just said, 'Give me the ball,'' Buser said. "I wanted to get up the court as fast as possible. I thought they were going to foul, so I wanted to get it off.
"When [Noyes and Gibson] fouled out, going through my mind was I have to take over now. It's Champ's and my game."
Floater after floater, big play after big play, Buser played with the confidence of, yes, a New York guard. Over on the sidelines, Noyes refused to sit down at the end of the bench. He was yelling, stretching like a contortionist. "I was cheering as hard as I could," Noyes said. "I wanted to be out there so bad."
On the court, Buser pushed himself to exhaustion. And then he stole the ball in double overtime. "I just held onto it with my life," He said.
Suddenly it was over. Jubilation. The Granby fans chanted Brett Buser's name. He was overwhelmed. So were dad and mom.
"People were coming over to me in the stands crying," John Buser said. "It's unbelievable. It's like a movie script. It's one of the best days our life."
It's a day Brett Buser and the Granby Bears will talk about the rest of their lives.

Audio Science Redesigns PCI Tuner Adapters
Newecastle, DE - April 2, 2008 - Audio Science has announced the new ASI8921 line is a smaller version with the addition of RDS/RDBS metadata monitoring.
The ASI8921 is a half-length PCI card, much smaller than the ASI8700 series, and can be fitted with one or two tuner modules as required. Currently available modules provide either four channels FM+RDS or four channels of AM/FM+RDS. Added functionality includes AM and FM de-emphasis, which is software selectable, using Audio Science's ASI Control mixer application. An F connector feeds RF signal from an external antenna to all tuners on the ASI8921. On the AM/FM module, each tuner may also be fed from an external antenna input per tuner. An HD50 connector makes available the mono or stereo line level audio of each tuner output.
The silicon tuners used also reduce the power consumption of the ASI8921 series. The ASI8921-2200 with eight AM/FM tuners consumes less than 10W compared to almost 20W of the previous generation ASI8702 AM/FM adapter.
There are four versions of the ASI8921 available:
- The ASI8921-1000 has 4 channels of FM+RDS

Art Meets Fashion In Locally Based Site WELCOMECOMPANIONS
Ever since I purchased a fake rubber rolex by artist Shelter Serra (nephew of Richard Serra), I've been thinking a lot about the fine line between fashion and art. It's not a new phenomenon but I'm trying to be a bit more conscious of buying items that have meaning and not just something that walked down the runway. That's why I like the site WELCOMECOMPANIONS. Created by Laurel Consuelo Broughton, the site is a curated collection of objects and accessories that bridges the gap of playful and useful with the artistic. With her studio WelcomeProjects, the site revolves around one particular story and create objects for that story. Currently, they've taken a surrealistic approach by paying homage to French writer and surrealist Rene Crevel with the titled story, "Mr. Knife, Miss Fork." You'll find the hat as a handbag, a glove as a coinpurse, and an airmail envelope as a wallet, among other cool items. The accessories are all so witty and fun. A true conversational piece.
A native Angeleno, I asked Laurel a couple of questions about the site and her inspirations behind the items she designs.
How did you come up with the idea of WELCOMECOMPANIONS?
WELCOMECOMPANIONS arose out of a desire to produce a line of accessories that could be a whole world unto themselves. I see each collection as its own story. As the pieces get used out in the world, our stories get to be a part of other larger stories. I've always been very interested in the way objects get coded with meaning through culture. Narrative plays a big part in developing or deciphering the meaning—hence my interest in storytelling.
I love the idea of art as fashion. Do you think this is a new trend or something that's always been at play?
I think fashion and art have always had an important relationship that various artists and designers have tapped into at different times. I love the accessibility and mercantile aspect of fashion and the single-mindedness of art. Fashion has a way of migrating that art doesn't access in the same way even though a designer and an artist may be working with similar ideas or conceptual positions. It reminds me of Andy Warhol's sentiment, "…good business is the best art," which I see not so much about money as about audience.
You're from Los Angeles, what in our city inspires you?
Los Angeles is infinitely changeable—it is in its DNA as a place that morphs to accommodate different visions and realities all the time. There is this very rich history of dream culture here which some people miss when they can't access Los Angeles as a traditional city.
I grew up at the beach, so when I need some time out of the fray, I generally head in that direction. My house and studio is also a place that I've tried my best to insulate from the noise and commotion. But more than anything, I find Los Angeles fascinating.
What item from the current collection has really stood out and done well?
Both Hat, a handbag and Glove, a coinpurse have gotten a lot of attention. I think they speak to a common desire for play to be a part of our everyday experience.
You're working on a spring collection. What can be expected?
The next collection or story as we call them revolves around the idea of picnicking as a way to get out of the rhythm of the every day. The pieces toy with the different trappings of the picnic—gingham, the food, eating—as well as the references to the picnic in art and literature—everything from Manet's Le Déjeuner sur l'Herbe and the flamboyant repast of Wind in the Willows. It is our largest story so far and it includes 10 pieces ranging from totes to shoulder bags to clutches to iPhone cases and a special WELCOMECOMPANIONS deck of cards made especially for whiling away the afternoons.
When designing these objects, do you have a person in mind?
I'd say the WELCOMECOMPANIONS' girl or guy is intelligent and playful. She or he appreciates conceptual precedents, a good story and a good laugh too.

Many of these bugs have already been fixed. Reading through bug 18918, Azarah's comments seem perfectly reasonable to me, so I think the author of that message was a bit harsh. Lindstrom's last comment on that bug does seem fairly clear, but I'm wondering if his proposed fix will break /etc/profile for the zsh (and any other fancy *sh that might exist that I don't know anything about)? I do agree that we should try to prevent our /etc/profile from breaking people's prompts, but I don't want people to lose the distinctive Gentoo eye-candy, either.
