The Facts: Ethics and DeLay, Rove, Abramoff, etc.
There are so many ethics scandals swirling in the capital right now, one might be tempted to think it must be a really slow news month and everyone's just scraping around for something to talk about. Not so! There happens to be plenty of news, and these particular scandals are concerning enough to stick around even up against so much other big news.
Before we tap into the debate over what the various scandals mean, here are some basic facts to keep in mind.
First up is the matter of the leaking of Valerie Plame's name. The grand jury investigating the leak is set to expire on Oct. 28, so indictments -- assuming there will be any -- should be handed down in the coming days. Plenty of documents related to the case can be viewed at FindLaw, including Title 50, section 421 of the U.S. Code, setting out the rules regarding disclosure of the identity of an undercover agent. Time magazine provides this timeline of events in the leak case. Here's factcheck.org on the Valerie Plame case and the distortions of the truth on both sides.
If you read nothing else recommended here, be sure to check out the dueling accounts in the New York Times of how reporter Judith Miller ended up in jail -- first the newspaper's account, then Miller's. Oh, and don't miss the Robert Novak column in which he outed Plame, and the NYT op-ed by Joe Wilson that started it all.
Moving on to House Majority Leader Tom DeLay -- that is, former House majority leader Tom DeLay ...
... He is no stranger to ethical scandals. Here's a compilation of DeLay scandals (warning: it's written with some attitude, but the facts are there) by Slate, which also offers a readable (if, again, not perfectly straight) piece on infamous lobbyist Jack Abramoff's "extraordinary career." The Post offers the definitive account (so far) of Abramoff's misdeeds. (It even comes complete with graphics, like this one on Abramoff's Paper Trail. Also available is DeLay Indicted: A Post Special Report as well as a LiveOnline about the case.
Beef up on lobbying laws with the meaty Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995. The Rules from the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct are also worth a look, and then read the brief post-indictment lovefest for Tom DeLay courtesy of Rep. Wilson of South Carolina. (After waxing eloquent about DeLay and partisan attacks, Wilson's closing line is 'In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never forget September 11." I wonder, is that a common closing line, even when completely unrelated to everything previously said?)
Definitely read the text of the DeLay indictment, and here's some breaking(ish) news about the warrant issued for DeLay's arrest. And in case you're wondering about Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist's questionable stock sale, here's Jim Lehrer's News Hour discussing the matter.
Have any good leads on interesting opinion pieces regarding these scandals? Any other scandals you'd like me to explore as part of this week's Debate? Leave me a comment below. You're also welcome to e-mail me at email@example.com.

Good links today Emily!
Yeah, we all know DeLay is a little sleezeball, but the Plame affair info is interesting. I particularly liked the factcheck.org timeline/summary. From reading that I get the sense that it is a more a case of the administration (or vice-president's office) being sloppy, careless, indifferent and/or incompetent, than it is of deliberate and malicious retribution for the Wilson letter. I'm just not sure if that makes it better or worse. I at least feel a little bit less like Rove/Libby/Cheney are the type of comic book villains you might think they were if you believed they engineered a life-threatening outing of a covert agent as payack for an embarrassing op-ed peice. Of course, seeing incompetence and negligence rather than malice is just my reading, and maybe others would disagree. I would be interested on other people's opinions after reading the timeline.

base on the info on fact check, ms plame had been outed in 1994 and her cover pretty much blown.
in addition, it is pretty clear that they were avid Gore supporters. she also jeopardized her cover by writing a check from a CIA front company. was this her money? was this government monies being funneled into a presidential campaign?
in addition, it was pretty convenient that 2 avid democratic supporters sought to embarrass the administration with mr wilson's whitewash of the fact of WMD. what about judith miller and her notes about ms flame (plame) that she wrote in 1999 for her book about germ warfare. was this the leak? this was well before the administration was involved.
the disclosure by a reporter just isn't very interesting compared to blaming administration officials. it is scandalous, but not on the administration side.
besides, she was not undercover since 1994. anyone could have noted who went in and out of CIA headquarters and figured out that she worked for the CIA.
what's the crime?

I think it is the duty of the agent to keep his or cover classified. If it is truly the fault of the administration, then the administration should be disciplined accordingly. If it is the fault of the agent, then the agent is ultimately responsible. Irresponsible, slant, Leftist journalism is always partially responsible.

i read the DeLay indictment. it seems a bit far fetched to me. it appears that he is indicted because he worked within the RNC and knew colyando and ellis.
look at the record of this prosecutor and you can see that this was trumped up to embarrass the republican party. these frivolous charges are the real crime.

Tom Delay is crook. He's proved that with the company he has kept. No one is above the law. Not even Mr. Delay who has a knack of changing the law to fit his ill begotten deeds.

Emily, you are right on target when you say, "There are so many ethics scandals swirling in the capital right now."
Yes, indeed. The latest scandal, however, seems to be the call issued by Charles Krauthammer and others that Harriet Miers must withdraw.
Krauthammer says in today's Post that Miers should withdraw on grounds of "irreconciliable differences over documents." He frames the case as a conflict between the White House and the Senate. The White House would not release "policy documents" and "legal analysis" from such a close confidante (so says Krauthammer). But the Senate cannot confirm unless this information is made available (so says K.).
One would expect the President to be forthcoming and provide the documents required by the Senate because the Senate MUST have this information. Or, if the President holds back the information (let us assume, rightfully) the Senate will vote without the knowledge of the documents. So, if the White House is keen on the confirmation of Miers it MUST release the documents demanded by the Senate. If, on the other hand, the White House considers it absolutely necessary not to release the documents in order to preserve executive prerogative then it SHOULD NOT release the documents.
In any case, the burden is on the White House because it is the Prez that nominated Miers.
To demand that Miers must withdraw sounds rather silly. Why should she? She has the confidence of the Prez. She is said to possess legal acumen and belong to a conservative, fundamentalist church which is essentially pro-life. So, what's the big deal?
If she has any respect for the Prez she must stick with him. If he has no confidence in her HE must withdraw her nomination. Don't put the burden on poor Miers and ask her to "put preservation of executive privilege above personal ambition." She did not nominate herself to the Court! How can you accuse her of being ambitious?

Don't understand why no one has dug up the Italian journalist story which was the real start of the whole yellowflake myth.
An Italian reporter for reasons best known to herself wrote a column "revealing that Iraq was trying to buy yellowflake uranium from Niger. My own recollection is that this was reported in The New Yorker magazine, perhaps by Seymour Hersh. Hunch: this report got the administration all excited. Aha -- weapons of mass des-truction AT LAST.

A Statement from SEIU United Service Workers West President Mike Garcia
Los Angeles, CA — On Tuesday, March 14th Governor Brown and a coalition of community and labor groups reached an agreement to propose a ballot measure to temporarily raise the state's sales and income taxes this fall. According to California's Department of Finance, the proposed increase would raise between $7 billion to $9 billion dollars, providing much needed revenue to fund the state's health, educational, and social services as well as infrastructure projects.
Mike Garcia, the president of California's largest union of property service workers, issued the following statement:
"Yesterday Californians from all walks of life came together to unite behind a revenue initiative that ensures those who have prospered from better days make possible California's comeback in the years ahead. It's an example of how we can reach solutions to our state's toughest problems when we work together.
We appreciate the efforts of all involved that helped improve the governor's initiative to make it a more equitable and more progressive tax proposal for the working people and 99% of this state. It's an initiative that will mean the 1% will pay to mend the economy they wrecked.
If passed, this measure would not be a small step towards a renewed California but a leap towards a shared prosperity for the state's working people, including the janitors, security officers, stadium and airport workers who make up United Service Workers West."

In a spectacularly well timed release for those who are planning to increase their fitness level in the New Year, RunKeeper has released the next major version of their iOS app. Version 3.0 of RunKeeper brings with it a new user interface which is cleaner and easier to use than its predecessor. Users will apparently find it more motivating as it more clearly highlights personal fitness achievements, translating, one would hope, to increased usage.
The new app also improves the social aspect of the app, meaning that more weight is placed upon competing with friends and colleagues, as well as enhanced functionality related to in-app photo sharing of workouts. All of these features are integrated with Facebook and Twitter so you can post to social networks without having to move to another app.
Perhaps the coolest addition is the ability to enable live activity tracking, meaning that if you are competing or quite simply engaging in a training session, your family or friends can track your position (this service only applies to RunKeeper Elite accounts however).
RunKeeper is free to download and free to use, and version 3.0 is available from the iOS App Store right now.

Act quickly to adopt Ali. Pets at this Shelter may be held for only a short time.
Other Pets at Walton County Animal Control
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Ali, a Monroe Pharaoh Hound/German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Pharaoh Hound/German Shepherd Dog for sale in Monroe, or seeking a Pharaoh Hound/German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Monroe.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Monroe already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Monroe breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Pharaoh Hound/German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with Pharaoh Hound/German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Monroe paves the way for another one to be saved.

Unsupervised learning

Clustering |
Dimensionality reduction |

Anomaly detection |
Neural nets |
Theory |
In machine learning, the problem of unsupervised learning is that of trying to find hidden structure in unlabeled data. Since the examples given to the learner are unlabeled, there is no error or reward signal to evaluate a potential solution. This distinguishes unsupervised learning from supervised learning and reinforcement learning.
Unsupervised learning is closely related to the problem of density estimation in statistics.[1] However unsupervised learning also encompasses many other techniques that seek to summarize and explain key features of the data. Many methods employed in unsupervised learning are based on data mining methods used to preprocess[citation needed] data.
Approaches to unsupervised learning include:
- clustering (e.g., k-means, mixture models, hierarchical clustering),[2]
- hidden Markov models,
- blind signal separation using feature extraction techniques for dimensionality reduction, e.g.:
Among neural network models, the self-organizing map (SOM) and adaptive resonance theory (ART) are commonly used unsupervised learning algorithms. The SOM is a topographic organization in which nearby locations in the map represent inputs with similar properties. The ART model allows the number of clusters to vary with problem size and lets the user control the degree of similarity between members of the same clusters by means of a user-defined constant called the vigilance parameter. ART networks are also used for many pattern recognition tasks, such as automatic target recognition and seismic signal processing. The first version of ART was "ART1", developed by Carpenter and Grossberg (1988).[4]
Applications in genomics[edit]
Unsupervised learning techniques are widely used to reduce the dimensionality of high dimensional genomic data sets that may involve hundreds of thousands of variables. For example, weighted correlation network analysis is often used for identifying clusters (referred to as modules), modeling the relationship between clusters, calculating fuzzy measures of cluster (module) membership, identifying intramodular hubs, and for studying cluster preservation in other data sets.[citation needed]

How to cover school books without getting bubbles

, Feb 08 2008 01:38 PM

#1Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:38 PM
Argghh is contact getting crappier these days or what?
DD has 15 books to cover and DS has 8. God help me. I am such a perfectionist and can't stand the bubbles and lines. Any tried and true methods? #2Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:39 PM
You just have to go slow and push out all the bubbles.
#3Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:43 PM
There must be a secret! I do go slow, I use a ruler, DD holds the book and I go slowly, but half the time the contact stuff is just dodgy and gets lines in it.
Please tell me there is a secret. #4Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:53 PM
Yes, there is a secret... it is called a plastic book slip!
Doesn't help with bigger books.. When I was a kid Mum used to let us buy wrapping paper and brown paper to wrap our books in. Only the text books got contact. #5Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:53 PM
If you do get bubbles use a pin and sort of pop the air out and then flatten it.
Hope that makes sense. Leeanne xxx #6Posted 08 February 2008 - 01:56 PM
Ok I worked in a library and used to cover millions of books. First cut the contact just a bit bigger than the size of the laid out open book leaving about 3/4 inch all the way around. Fold contact in half then peel back one half of the contact and place spine of book along this folded line in the middle. Turn book over and get a credit card or similar card and push the airbubbles towards each side, then trim the corners and fold over. Peel off otherside of the contact and do the same. If you still have a slight bubble get a pin and prick it lets out the air. Good luck.
#7Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:10 PM
We would use a ruler and slowly slide the plastic down pressing firmly with the ruler, to help it go down smooth and press out any bubbles.
#8Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:22 PM
Cut the contact 2cm or so bigger than the book. Peel back 1/2 of the contact & put the middle of the spine in the middle of the contact. Put the book with the side you're going to stick first facing up but holding the contact up in the air so it's not touching the book. Smooth it out along the spine, starting from the middle of the book to the top/bottom. When that's done, have the book how you would if you were reading it. Hold the contact in the air with your right hand, & slowly start from the spine & work your way up & down the book until you get to the edge pushing the contact down. You shouldn't get any bubbles. Turn over & do the same thing to the back of the book. Open the book up & diagonally cut the corners of the contact & also near the spine & along the spine. Fold the edges starting from the middle out. All done! It's not that hard if you do it bit by bit & start from the middle out & then from the middle to the other out. Maybe get someone to hold the contact in the air for you while you're pushing it down if it's too hard to do with 2 hands. Good luck!
#9Posted 08 February 2008 - 02:38 PM
I use the ruler method! I usually start inside one cover and fold the backing paper back as I edge along with a ruler, but the librarian method of starting at the spine sounds good. I think I will try that next time!
#10Posted 08 February 2008 - 03:17 PM
I think contact is getting crappier, I have endless trouble contacting books, and I hate this time of year when there are so many of them to do. I always used to do the fold in half work fromt he spine method, but no more, I jhust don't have the coordination. This year, I fold in half, put hte spine in the middle, then peel a little way back on one side, lay a little bit of the book cover on it and stick down (enough to not get bubbles), flip it over and use a ruler to smooth it down as I pull the backing off, all very slow. When you get to the middle, turn the book over and keep going.
Don't know if that makes sense, but basically, I do it all in one direction. As an aside, Monday this week at 8am, DS2 knocks on the bathroom door, "Mum, can you cover my books?" NO . Honestly, he'd had them since Friday night. #11Posted 08 February 2008 - 03:23 PM
Go to a proper stationery store and buy 'library grade' contact. It's that little bit thicker than ordinary supermarket contact and is so easy to use.
Also make sure that when smoothing over with the ruler, that you are not pulling the contact too tightly (to remove backing paper) that it stretches and then won't stick smoothly. #12Posted 08 February 2008 - 04:01 PM
I feel your pain...I hate covering books. But I have found some brands of contact are worse than others.
#13Posted 08 February 2008 - 05:44 PM
no no no ... you have it all wrong!!!
you need a kitchen bench & a water spray bottle. spray the cupboard with a mist of water where you plan to work, then cut your contact to size, then spray the shiny side of contact with water. pull off the back paper with the wet shiney side & the wet laminex together. you will find the wetness stops all the static and it is as easy as covering books with a sheet of paper. my 4 kids had 8 books each.... i got them all covered in about 2 hours, no swearing and throwing of books, and more importantly.... NO WRINKLES OR BUBBLES!!! it is seriously amazing :D:D:D:D #14Posted 08 February 2008 - 05:49 PM
After many many hissy fits, screwed up balls of contact and a little (lot) of swearing I now cover with paper (coloured or brown paper then add stickers) and then cover again witn a clear plastic, looks really spiffy!
#15Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:09 PM
ok well i used to be the "queen" of covering books when i was at school ... many moons ago!!
there were two different types of clear contact back then, a cheap and nasty version and a slightly more expensive one, the dearer one is thicker and goes on like a treat!! 1. cut the contact about 1.5cm wider than the book is, before you peel the backing off, fold the contact in half to create a crease that goes down the spine of the book. 2. peel back contact on one side until you reach the crease mark, stand books spine along the crease and roll it down on to the sticky contact, if you are using the dearer contact you should have no bubbles, if you are using cheap and nasty version you may get bubbles. 3. cut corners off contact, snip the contact at the spine on both sides, fold edges of contact onto book. 4. stand book on its spine and pull the backing of the contact on the reverse side and same as before roll front of book onto contact. cut corners off and fold contact edges onto book. #16Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:42 PM
Excuse my ignorance, but what's with covering books in contact? This was not something my mother ever did! Won't they survive if you don't?
#17Posted 08 February 2008 - 06:45 PM QUOTE After many many hissy fits, screwed up balls of contact and a little (lot) of swearing I now cover with paper (coloured or brown paper then add stickers) and then cover again witn a clear plastic, looks really spiffy! My mum did this for all our books in primary school. She used patterned wrapping paper and then the clear plastic over the top. We had the best looking books in the district, and when the other kid's contact was cracking around the edges at the end of the term ours still looked as good as the day she did it. In fact she's kept some of our old workbooks and they still look great today. She later went back to uni and studied to become a librarian...so all that book-covering practice came in handy Edited by mummy~mel, 08 February 2008 - 06:45 PM. #18Posted 08 February 2008 - 07:19 PM
Yep, I do it like stayathomemum and never have a problem at all. Rarely even get one bubble.
#19Posted 08 February 2008 - 07:49 PM
5*little*ducks may I kiss you????
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! For the first time ever, I have contacted books without bubbles and without me swearing. It was easy as pie and done in half the time. I did not even use a ruler. #20Posted 08 February 2008 - 07:57 PM
I just covered 25 books with the method used by just about everyone here although I use a tissue (soft cloth) to smooth.
Might try the wet kitchen bench next time. Ali #21Posted 08 February 2008 - 08:03 PM
Remind me of the water thing next year won't you? I've finished all the book covering for this year.
#22Posted 08 February 2008 - 08:14 PM QUOTE Go to a proper stationery store and buy 'library grade' contact. It's that little bit thicker than ordinary supermarket contact and is so easy to use. I agree with this. My local newsagent sells contact-type stuff, but it's quite thick and it's much nicer than contact. Sorry I can't be more helpful with a name or brand, but you can ask your newsagent if they sell this stuff. #23Posted 09 February 2008 - 01:46 AM
Yeah, go out and buy the expensive stuff. Definitely worth the money. I had terrible luck with the cheap stuff but the 'thick' contact covered flawlessly every time.
#24Posted 09 February 2008 - 12:29 PM
yes ~♥~Mia~♥~ you may kiss me LMAO happy to be of service
#25Posted 09 February 2008 - 01:07 PM
Wow, thanks for posting this topic. We have a few books to cover this weekend. DP always cracks it with the contact!

Album review
Horace Andy - Mek It Bun
Horace Andy got fed up waiting five years for Massive Attack to make the follow-up to Mezzanine, so he took himself off to Jamaica to make his own album of classic, ganja-fuelled '70s-style 'conscious' reggae with felicitous echoes of even earlier ska. There's a magnificent cover of Gregory Isaacs' "Night Nurse" which puts Mick Hucknall to shame, and an improbable but enjoyable version of America's "Horse With No Name". For the rest, it's Horace's original one-drop roots rockers (co-written with producer 'Stepper' Braird), as if dancehall and ragga had never been invented.

Eventually I will be getting an induction range. I need a 50 amp circuit for it. In words of one sylable, how much is this going to cost? FWIW I now have an electric range and a heat pump. Does that mean I am halfway there? Just need the electrician to get service from the breaker to the kitchen? I don't "do" electricity. Make this explaination very short and simple. |

Short explanation: Ask the electrician for an estimate. Oh, you wanted us to price this without having any of the details whatsoever? OK, here goes: A ball park estimate is somewhere between $50 and $3000. |
Hard to figure out what the questions is. What is your induction range: (a) is it an induction cook-top with an electric oven; (b) an induction cook-top with an induction/electric oven. Both are electric ranges. I do not think (b) is available in North America yet. Do you intend to keep your already existing electric range - it is just as electric as induction type is? It probably is already on 240V/50A circuit. If you are replacing one electric oven for another electric oven (induction or not) - just use the circuit you already have. Just check the circuit breaker. Could not make it shorter because of the ambiguity of your question. |
terribletom, For all I know $3000 is what it would cost. I did find the answer on another thread though so never mind. |
l1234, I WANT the Kenmore induction slide in (aka built in)range with convection oven. It will be the only range I will have. My second choice would be the Samsung freestanding. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/search_10153_12605?keyword=induction%2Brange&vName=&x=23&y=0 Third and fourth choices would be freestanding Kenmore or GE in no particular order. |

Pinch Me, You simply didn't provide enough information for anyone to accurately answer your question. The problem with pricing is that there are so many variables that the best you may come up with is a very rough ballpark. Unless you get your number from a neighbor who has the exact same house as you do, has the exact same work done, by the same contractor. Even then, you might not get the same number. Your best bet is to get some electricians in and get estimates. |
If you have an electric range now go to the circuit breaker box and open the cover and look at the breaker for the range. It will be a double breaker with numbers on the handle. Report back with the numbers. |
#19 & #21 labeled kitchen range each say 40 amp. |
The wire needs to be a size larger and the breakers need to be changed. How far you have to go and how difficult it is to access the wires determines the cost. Also where you live, some places are way more expensive than others. |
Thanks, hendricus. The range is almost directly above the breaker box so it shouldn't be too bad. I still remember getting the bill for the heat pump wiring so I am much more cautious now. This should be doable. I won't be afraid to call the electrician. I wonder......if I should have him do it now when I have the kitchen torn up anyway and before it gets any more expensive or is it just a matter of pulling the old wire out and the new wire in? And a 50 amp breaker. It will never get cheaper but I can't think it would get a lot more expensive in a year's time. The new range was not in the original remodel plan. |
- Posted by terribletom (My Page) on Sun, Dec 13, 09 at 10:59
As the available facts unfold, it's beginning to look like you have close to the best case scenario. (The true best case would be if you were simply swapping out a range already wired on a re-usable 50-amp circuit, in which case the cost might be zero.) The next best case would be that your present 40-amp range circuit is actually wired with 4-conductor 6-guage wire (6-3 w/ground). While that might have been slight "overkill" when the original range was wired, it is something that does happen from time to time. (It's not inconceivable that the original electrician roughed in the circuit to meet maximum demands and learned later that a 40- not 50-amp range/oven was being installed. So, he/she may have subsequently put in a 40-amp breaker even though the wiring would supprt a 50-amp breaker.) If that's the case, the present wiring might be sufficient and you might only need a new breaker. (That's the $50 end of the estimate). Assuming that the wire must be replaced (seems likely, as Hendricus notes), the fact that the range is close to the breaker box is a big plus. Knowing that, and further assuming that there's good access to the run, you are now probably looking at something in the order of a couple hundred bucks or so. [I'd also note that, in addition to a new breaker, you may need to replace the receptacle at the other end. But this is no more than about a $25 item.] So where'd I get off with a maximum of $3000? Well, you'd only incur that sort of expense if your entire electrical service were already close to the point of overload and the **addition** of a new 50-amp circuit, together with other increased load demands of your kitchen remodel, forced an upgrade of your whole house's electrical service under difficult conditions, in an expensive area of the country. From the information given in the original post, that couldn't be ruled out. BTW, you should definitely call in an electrician while the kitchen is torn up, rather than waiting until the walls are closed and finish work has progressed. It will never get cheaper but I can't think it would get a lot more expensive in a year's time." Nods. While I don't have a crystal ball, you're probably right. Funny, though, that copper wire is actually cheaper now that it was a couple of years ago, although it appears to be headed back up. It's a volatile market and if you could predict it with certainty, you could make a fortune on the commodities markets. In the meantime, the recession has deflated the price of labor markets in some pockets of the country. Depending on your local economic conditions, you may well be correct: If the housing market makes a big recovery and copper skyrockets, it could be a good bit more expensive in a year's time. But who knows? |
- Posted by terribletom (My Page) on Sun, Dec 13, 09 at 11:52
Oops. I need to correct a slip of the fingers: Instead of "4-conductor 6-guage wire (6-3 w/ground)", please substitute "three six-guage conductors plus a ground". |
Too bad we didn't all buy stock in the copper wire market. Maybe I'd still have my 401. The plan as I see it is, get the electrician to put in the new service now - use it on the "old" range - and when I get rich enough to buy the dream range I'll be good to go. New breaker, wire and outlet. This old, Old house has been very well maintained but I wouldn't expect the 40 amp to have been made any more than that. Thank you. I won't feel completely lost when I call to get this scheduled. They always ask stuff I don't know. BTW the answer I found earlier in this conversation is on this site. Answered quite nicely, too. Had I found it first there would have been no need for me to ask again. |

- Posted by terribletom (My Page) on Sun, Dec 13, 09 at 13:50
...and had you made it clear you were replacing one range on a 40A circuit with another that requires a 50-amp circuit, this thread would no doubt have resolved quickly. BTW, I don't see any discussion of cost in that other thread. Unless I badly misread the OP, that was the principal question posed here. Ah, nevermind. Sounds like a plan -- at least have an electrician put in the new cable while the walls are open. (It is possible that you may have to swap the receptacle or hardwired connection later, but that's no biggie.) All's well that ends well. /finis |

THE DIXIE SCHOOL BOARD has not escaped the political battles over affordable housing in North San Rafael.
The board has been urged to get involved and side with critics of affordable housing who contend district schools wouldn't be able to handle the growth. They say that much of the housing, if built by tax-exempt nonprofits, would not generate property tax revenue needed to run the area's public schools.
So far, the board has done a good job of avoiding the fray.
In part, that's because of three strong incumbents — Brad Honsberger, Mark Schott and Bruce Abbott. They are seeking new terms on the Nov. 5 ballot.
The race has drawn two challengers, Lisa Culbertson Simmons and Ruth Carter.
Carter, a retired teacber who had taught in West Harlem, entered the race because she was troubled by the "upset and anger" generated by the housing debate. She has some solid endorsements, including from Marin Supervisor Susan Adams and progressive Democrats.
Simmons, a San Francisco prosecutor and mother of two youngsters, was among those challenging the county's housing plans. She has been a sharp critic of Adams' "mishandling" of that issue.
But she says she supports the board's "non-political position" on housing and says it is the district's job to provide an education to all kids.
There is agreement on that point among the candidates.
There also is agreement that Dixie's schools are terrific and a draw for people looking to move into Terra Linda, Marinwood or Lucas Valley.
There may not have been an election had it not been for the housing debate. The candidacies of Carter and Simmons have forced voters to take the time to think about their local public schools, the performance and their future.
Both challengers are campaigning to win.
What they haven't done is give any good reasons why they could do a better job than the incumbents.
Honsberger notes that the district's 2011 election for its Measure A parcel tax was passed by nearly 80 percent of the voters.
He recognizes that that margin was a strong vote of confidence in the schools and the school board.
Abbott is seeking his third term. His son is a graduate of Dixie schools, but Abbott has remained involved, not only locally but countywide, as well.
His experience as a school business manager gives him helpful insight in school financing. His experience on the board should prove valuable as the district complies with new state-funding requirements.
Schott, the father of three Dixie students, is seeking his third term. His business acumen and focus on educational opportunities for all Dixie kids is impressive.
Dixie faces some important changes in school funding, curriculum and, possibly, growth. With Honsberger, Abbott and Schott on the board, it has the leadership and experience to handle them.
That's why the IJ recommends Honsberger, Abbott and Schott on the Nov. 5.

I have a stainless steel INOX from Italy fish poaching pan with a steamer/lifting rack and lid that has seen many a slab of fish. There should be something else I can use it for - any suggestions? Nancy |

No reason why you couldn't roast in it. Long Narrow roasts like a pork loin or a beef tenderloin. Minus the lid. You could also bake cabbage rolls covered in that pan. ~Ann |

I steam boneless chicken breasts when making chicken salad. This would be perfect. I would also use it for steaming asparagus. I think I want one of these now! |
1. Perfect for lasagna. 2. If you look at images of BBQ spare ribs, you see lots of bones sticking out. The more bones you see, the more meat shrinkage has happened and you get dry falling-off-the-bone meat. That is not a very desirable thing especially for a BBQ competition. This poacher pan may be perfect for making ribs. Just big enough for a rack of small baby back ribs. Rub and season one rack, put in pan and cover. Roast ribs in oven under very low heat for many hours, until meat beome tender but not mushy, than grill on extreme charcoal fire. You will get incredible ribs with not much meat shrinkage. dcarch |

I have this same pan from Italy, which I bought at a restaurant supply store. It lives in the garage because I seldom have a fish that large to poach. After poaching the fish, I decided that I liked the fish stock that I got better than the fish - it seemed that most of the flavor went into the stock. I wonder if it would be good for tamales? Lars |
I use mine for steaming frozen crab legs. |
I have used mine for baking no knead bread in a long baguette shape. Jim |
OK, it has been a few days since your replies - thank you so much! I've made pullman shaped bread, rice custard pudding in cups, baby back ribs before the grill (electric not the outside frozen gas grill), and enchiladas. I had to stop looking at it like a poacher and begin looking at it as a new vessel and I so appreciate you sharing your ideas. It's not going to gather any more dust while I wait for fishing to start up again late Feb. Nancy |

Men In Underwear From Asia
When I say men in underwear from Asia, I mean the man of course, not his underwear!! This very lovely Asian twink in his underwear is Lexus. I just love his gorgeous dark skin. His face is just toooo cute. With his hair so short his beautiful features are highlighted so well. His dark eyes never seem to leave you alone - I almost feel as if he is reading my mind. However, I think it's obvious what is on my mind! More to the point, he looks fab in his stripy underwear showing his lovely bulge!! And when the underwear is off, a stunningly suckable cock is revealed and a lickable hair-framed hole!!

Three Jacksonville Cocaine Traffickers Sentenced To Federal Prison Terms For Shipping Cocaine From Southern California To Northeast Florida
Jacksonville, Florida - U.S. District Judge Roy B. Dalton, Jr. sentenced Charles Hall (35, Jacksonville) and Daniel Williams (51, Jacksonville) each to twenty years in federal prison for conspiring to distribute 5 kilograms or more of cocaine. Antonio Hughes (33, Jacksonville) was also sentenced today for his role in the conspiracy, he received 63 months in federal prison. All three pled guilty in July 2011.
According to court documents, from late 2010 to the end of March 2011, Hall, Williams and Hughes worked together to obtain kilogram quantities of cocaine in Southern California. Hall and Williams shipped the cocaine to various addresses in Jacksonville and Flagler County. Hughes retrieved the cocaine and redistributed it to various drug dealers in Jacksonville. On March 25, 2011, law enforcement officers with the United States Postal Inspection Service (USPIS), U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations (ICE HSI), the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office worked together to intercept a parcel being shipped to a residence in Flagler County. Officers obtained search warrants and found one kilogram of cocaine in the parcel. They made a controlled delivery of the parcel to Hughes. When Hughes accepted the package, officers executed another warrant and later arrested him. The investigation identified Hall and Williams as traveling from Jacksonville to Southern California to purchase kilogram quantities of cocaine for $26,000. Those kilograms of cocaine were shipped to northeast Florida and sold to other Jacksonville drug dealers for approximately $34,000.
This case was investigated the USPIS, ICE HSI, FDLE and the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney A. Tysen Duva.

Full Definition of THROMBOSIS
Origin of THROMBOSIS
noun \thräm-ˈbō-səs, thrəm-\ (Medical Dictionary)Medical Definition of THROMBOSIS
noun (Concise Encyclopedia)Formation of a blood clot (thrombus) in the heart or a blood vessel. Contributing factors include injury to a blood vessel's lining from inflammation (thrombophlebitis) or atherosclerosis, blood flow that is turbulent (e.g., from an aneurysm) or sluggish (e.g., from prolonged bed rest), or coagulation abnormalities (e.g., from high numbers of platelets or excessive fats in the blood). Thrombosis, especially in deep veins of the leg, is a particular danger after major surgery. A thrombus can block blood flow at the point of clot formation or break free to block it elsewhere (embolism).

Dear Reverbnation friends and fellow artists:
Just got a new demo back from Nashville, 'Going Underground.' First song up on my site. I wrote this in Ottawa a few years back. Hope you'll give it a listen and tell me what you think. I like this straight-up treatment by Jason Roller (Magic Shack Productions, Nashville), and the singer, Ronnie Kimball, did a great job with the lead and background vocals. I've put a few older ones up there, too. Each one features a different vocalist, and each song has a little bit different style. I hope you enjoy them all! I'll be happy to stop by and give yours a listen and a 'like,' too. Just drop me a line or leave a comment. In the meantime, I hope all is going well for you life-wise and inspiration-wise.
All the best,

Piedmont: Wine, Goat Cheese, and Gelato
Last destination: Italy's viticultural mecca, Piedmont. To most this means the Big B's: Barolo, Barbera, and Barbaresco, but in-the-know grape geeks come to chase the elusive grail of Timorasso. In the vine-patched compact hills of the Colli Tortonesi area, in southern Piedmont, a maverick winemaker named Walter Massa has brought back to life the age-old, indigenous white grape. Vigneti Massa, his farm, presents so humdrum a face you might initially drive right past. But Massa's wines have earned multiple tre bicchieri, the highest distinction from Gambero Rosso, a popular guide to wine and cheese. Imagine the spicy-floral-mineral charm of a Riesling trapped in a creamy powerful body of a noble white Burgundy. Bellissimo!
Nearby at Malvirà winery, in the Langhe region, Roberto and Massimo Damonte produce delightfully earthy Roero Nebbiolos, which pair perfectly with the pungent mysteries of the Robiola di Roccaverano goat cheese aged by master affineur Gian Domenico Negro of Arbiora. There are other memories not to be missed in Piedmont: the talented young chef at All'Enoteca restaurant, in the small Langhe town of Canale d'Alba, not far from Alba, packs duck, rabbit, and guinea fowl into olive oil and waits three long years until they achieve the plush concentration of a confit (crazy good!). Near Canale, you can't skip the local-seasonal smooth gelato spooned from paper cups at Agrigelatera San Pé—"Agri" because this countryside gelateria doubles as a dairy farm, wholesome manure smell and all.
The latte for the gelato? Pumped from cows that very morning, of course.
