New owners now have the campground, purchased it a little over a year ago. Very gracious hosts who provided all the info we needed of the local area. Nice peaceful campground situated in a small valley and surrounded by some very old trees. Would recommend this site if you are in the Le Sueur area. - neilmcb2002
Rate based on Escapees discount - got two nights for $22 total! Sites pretty level, quiet, beautiful trees, plenty of room. Limited services might be just the overnighters. Maybe seasonal get more amenities. Not sure how previous reviewer got sewer and Wi-Fi. Wi-Fi is available only in office or right outside. Practically no cell service. Dump station available. Men's bathroom and shower clean and very acceptable. Very pleasant staff. Not much to do outside park but Minneapolis is about 50 minutes away. High rating based on the terrific price. - Wheelbarrows
Nice little campground. We had a 50amp full hookup. They had the old fuse types you had to pull out and in to turn off and on. All sites were back-ins. Cell phone service on Verizon was sketchy. We did get Wi-Fi using our own amplifier to pull in the signal. Folks that were in the office were very friendly and took us to the site. The worst part about the campground was the 1/4 mile dirt road to the entrance, entrance was paved. The dirt road was a real washboard so you just have to drive real slow: 5mph max. We would return. Rate is based on Passport America. - rv4rob

^He probably just sat down somewhere for a second and recovered his energy while watching to see if Nagato would move. He wasn't really in a hurry once he knew that he had time.
Very cool chapter. Thanks for posting it BF.
I seriously hope Nagato will change his ways and joins Naruto in his quest of murdering Madara. I find him totally awesome.
I think that's how sage mode is supposed to work.
It let's you recover chakra while in it since your using nature energy.
So theoreticly so long as naruto can sit still a minute he can go sage mode.
I think said this before but oh well/ An excellent chapter all around. You tell them wise older jounin what's for!
it's a shonen manga... this is the way it works in most shonen manga.
if you fight for your friends all you need when you're allready bleeding to death and have all your bones broken is just the reminder in form of 2 or 3 panels of flashbacks with your friends and you even got more power than before.
kenpachi vs ichigo someone?
My new signature to celebrate my 1000th post!!! (My waifu Yuno)
whoooo time for the talk with nagato...next week we probably get to find out what happend to them and how yahiko died...and how he became a crippled lunatic...good chapter all in all...
fans in mariland say..
I was seriously hoping Naruto bitch slapped Inoichi
"He is now declaring his words to the WORLD!"
Funny how just about everyone popped out of the wood-er, stonework just after Pain got defeated. They were so helpful. Especially Shikamaru's group.<sarcasm>
And considering he wasn't in Sage Mode at the time, why did Naruto stab himself with the rod? I get the feeling he was simply inflicting pain on himself out of frustration.
talkie talk.... next chapter talkie talk continue. i bet neji & co come and stopped by naruto saying "he's not worthed anymore"

Heavy Fighting Resumes in Southern Somalia region
KISMAYU , Somalia (Keydmedia) — Heavy fighting with shells between Somali Government Troops backing by Kenyan forces and Al-shabab militant rebels has resumed again in parts of Gedo region of southern Somalia, residents said on Monday.
Eyewitnesses told Keydmedia Somalia News by phone that the battle erupted at dawn this morning after heavily armed Somali and Kenyan military attacked on Mudale village, a rebel-held area which is just 50 Km away from Bardere town in Gedo province. No casualties reported so far.
Kenyan fighter jets are reportedly taking part in the battle by air attacks that TFG forces and its allied army are struggling to capture from the rebels of Al-shabab.
Locals say the situation is tense and both sides are using heavy and slight weapons that sparked residents fear and anxiety. This fighting is the fiercest that the region has seen in weeks. Some reports suggest that Al-shabab insurgents vacated from their bases in Bardere town, however this reports could no be independently verify.
Keydmedia Somali made contacts with Somali government troop officers for comments on the fighting, but failed because of the poor phone lines in the Gedo region.

Reed Canyon - I Was Wrong (mostly)
A number of years back the enviros at Reed College took it upon themselves to restore the Canyon. The good part of this was the elimination of exotic invasive species such as blackberry and English ivy. The bad part was the elimination of the swimming pool which was constructed in 1929. My kids learned to swim there. It was important to our summers. The reason for this heinous act was to replace it with a fish ladder from Crystal Creek providing access to the lake for trout and salmon. I was pissed! What trout and salmon? How could they survive in the lake which is shallow and heavily silted in if they could make it up the
ladder? I bloviated about this for years.
Yesterday I visited the Canyon with Zac Perry. Zac is a graduate of OSU in Botany and Horticulture. He wrote the original plan for Canyon Restoration, which did not envision either the fish ladder or the restoration of steelhead and salmon runs in Crystal Creek. Zac set me straight on a couple of "issues"
1. The Reed blog describes the pond as the only naturally occuring lake in the Portland area. I pointed out that the pond is held in place by what is clearly a man made earth fill dam and has been since 1929. Zac responded that while this is true the original dairy farmers who cleared the site used the pond for irrigation. Apparently there was an impoundment held in place by a beaver dam. OK it is "more or less" a natural lake, albeit not a geologic formation.
2. True, neither salmon or steelhead can spawn in the lake. They require clear, cool water and clean gravel beds for their redds. Why then was the fish ladder built? Zac advised that the lake is serving as a rearing pond for smolts hatched in the creek below. A camera is mounted at the base of the fish ladder and provides fish counts on a 24/7 basis. A number of adult steelies have visited the pond but subsequently retreated. The salmon of course spawn and die in the creek. Smolt do move up into the lake.
3. The Canyon has become somewhat of a wildlife preserve and opportunity for study. The addition of the Environmental Studies Program at Reed has been greatly aided by this living classroom. When I suggested that the pond might be dredged and planted with black bass and crappies you can imagine the look that Zac gave me.
With the elimination of the blackberries and the release of native species in the canyon the site is more beautiful, accessible and interesting than before. Recently a pair of river otters have been spotted dining on freshwater muscles, beavers continue their campaign of destruction, turtles are making a comeback and the bird life is quite varied. Zac Perry has done a great job of managing the site and leveraging the enthusiasm of the students in the effort. Kudos to Zac.

My Mantra
I must confess to having a secret. In the summer of 1969 I was a student at UO in Eugene OR. I was on the verge of somthing, threatened by Vietnam and the draft, lacking funds to continue school, and essentially adrift. I met an attractive young lady who introduced me to Transcendental Meditation.
I remember my introduction to TM very clearly. It consisted of meditating with a "guru" (young blond hippy guy). There were lots of flowers and incense. The key to the practice seemed to be the receipt of my mantra. The mantra is a simple two syllable sound silently repeated during the meditation practice. He whispered my mantra to me. It imbedded itself on a permanent basis.
I never became a true devotee of TM but I have used the meditation practice throughout my life in order to reduce stress, relax, and free my mind of the cacaphony of daily existence. It seems that the quiet and disciplined repetition of the mantra combined with deep breathing is very effective at isolating the thought processes from the world at large. This is a private and solitary pursuit.
My mantra is the only pure secret I have. I have never shared it with anyone. I have the feeling that if I were to do so it would be somehow diminished. I wonder if there is anything to this or if I am jealously guarding a "secret" simply because I am able. Perhaps it is not even wise to admit that I have a secret. Oh well, the cat is out of the bag now...

New "Iconic" Floor
The University of Oregon has unveiled the floor de-sign of the new Matthew Knight arena. You are forgiven if you "don't get it". I don't either. At least we can rest assured that it cost a lot of money. Following are highlights as I understand them.
1. Graphics of Douglas-fir trees surround and overwhelm the floor creating a dizzying if not muddy image. The orange and brown color gives the impression of a stand of trees dying from a bark beetle infestation.
2. Slogan - Deep in the Woods. Does this refer to the plight of the visiting team or the tax payer?
3. Other Slogan - Kilkenny Floor. This is an obscure homage to the other rich guy (aside from Phil Knight) who has "contributed" to the university. For those lacking local knowledge this might well be misinterpreted as an advert for the manufacturer or installer of the floor.
4. Best Confusing Image - Thingy bob under the big O. While at first glance indecipherable, I am informed that this is a creative styling of the name MATT referring to Matthew Knight, deceased son of Phil Knight and namesake of the arena. An untutored reading of this might be TAT or MAM. According to the official explanation this image is constructed of two Japanese Torii (gates) bracketing the letter A. I didn't see this until it was explained. What the image of the Torii has to do with basketball, Matthew Knight, UO etc. is a mystery. My impression is that it is a rather fuzzy attempt at a display of spirituality. Perhaps the designer is not aware of the close relationship of the animistic Japanese Shinto religion and its close ties to militarism and the cult of the Emperor.
5. On a Practical Note - Where is the center line? Can the players see it? I can't. What is the effect on the psyche of visiting players? Is this an effort to render them disoriented?
In summary it is the humble opinion of this author that the design of this court is confusing, inconsistent, and excessively ambitious. My suggestion would be to sand it down and start over. How about a simple image of a Duck? As a UO alumnus I would find this preferable.

At a time when the nation could use some cheering up -- and the need for civility in discourse is on everyone's minds -- here is a collection, sent to us by a friend last week, of high-class insults:
The exchange between Churchill & Lady Astor: She said, "If you were my husband I'd give you poison." He said, "If you were my wife, I'd drink it."
A member of Parliament to Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease." "That depends, sir," said Disraeli, "whether I embrace your policies or your mistress."
"He had delusions of adequacy." - Walter Kerr
"He has all the virtues I dislike and none of the vices I admire." - Winston Churchill
"I have never killed a man, but I have read many obituaries with great pleasure." - Clarence Darrow
"He has never been known to use a word that might send a reader to the dictionary." - William Faulkner (about Ernest Hemingway)
"Thank you for sending me a copy of your book; I'll waste no time reading it." - Moses Hadas
"I didn't attend the funeral, but I sent a nice letter saying I approved of it." - Mark Twain
"He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends." - Oscar Wilde
"I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend... if you have one." - George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill
"Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second.... if there is one." - Winston Churchill, in response.
"I feel so miserable without you; it's almost like having you here." - Stephen Bishop
"He is a self-made man and worships his creator." - John Bright
"I've just learned about his illness. Let's hope it's nothing trivial." - Irvin S. Cobb
"He is not only dull himself; he is the cause of dullness in others." -Samuel Johnson
"He is simply a shiver looking for a spine to run up." - Paul Keating
"In order to avoid being called a flirt, she always yielded easily." -Charles, Count Talleyrand
"He loves nature in spite of what it did to him." - Forrest Tucker
"Why do you sit there looking like an envelope without any address on it?" - Mark Twain
"His mother should have thrown him away and kept the stork." -Mae West
"Some cause happiness wherever they go; others, whenever they go.." - Oscar Wilde
"He uses statistics as a drunken man uses lamp-posts... for support rather than illumination. " - Andrew Lang (1844-1912)
"He has Van Gogh's ear for music." - Billy Wilder
"I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it." -Groucho Marx
Vitriol, Violence, and the American Politic
We (or at least the great majority) of Americans were greatly saddened over the weekend by the senseless killings in Tucson Arizona. America's body politic has again been tested by our proclivity towards vitriol and violence. Following are some thoughts we would do well to consider:
1. We do not agree as a nation on a wide variety of issues. This is hardly new. States rights vs. Federalism, the role of religion, gun rights, foreign policy, and immigration will continue to be subjects of debate and hopefully compromise.
2. We seem to forget or overlook the value of government. I believe that the more recently expressed hatred for government is quite likely the result of a lack of understanding and consideration of both the proper role of government and the benefits resulting. With a democratic representative government we are responsible for the election of representatives who write and pass the laws. Complete rejection of the value of government is it seems a clear case of self-loathing if not just ignorance.
3. There seems to be a cycle of rhetoric which results in violent outbreaks. The effect of whoever shouts the loudest and makes the most extreme points has the result of gradually increasing the level of anger and feelings of isolation among those espousing the views. This has been exascerbated greatly by the freedom of the internet, but is fueled by leaders in our own government. A recent example has been the tenor of the Republican campaign against the Democratic opposition. Please consider for example Sarah Palin's use of a map with targets overlayed to demonstrate actions which she would have us take:
4. Our political leadership should take as much blame as the fringe groups. Personal attacks on the opposition whether from one party or the other, lead the electorate to believe that our Representatives, Senators, and administration are bad people with evil intent. This is made worse by the use of simplistic sound bites and marketing phrases used to increase the level and fear and anger rather than to inform the issue. A good example is the use of the expression "Death Panels" to describe end of life care provisions in the new health care law. If you hear this repeated enough times it soon becomes the definition of the issue, regardless of its lack of actual content or accuracy.
5. The expanded reach and freedom of the media has thrown more fuel on the fire. Fox News, MSNBC, and the blogosphere in general have contributed greatly to the lack of respect and personal attacks on leaders from both sides. I have been a long time reader of a local blog here in Portland. Jack Bog's Blog (
) has been an excellent source of information about state and local politics and economics. However, recently the quantity of personal attacks against everyone from the President to the Governor to the our Mayor have increased to the point where I decided to cease reading it. A good example was Jack's coining of the name Mayor Creepy to describe Sam Adams, the Mayor of Portland. I found that I was no better than Jack or many other readers when it came to heaping scorn and personal attacks on the Mayor. No, I don't agree with Sam Adams on a range of issues and culturally we are worlds apart, but is anything positive gained by the constantly increasing personal attacks? I don't think so.
6. It is time to reel in the anger and provide role models based on respect and civil discourse. Leadership will be required to accomplish this. I wonder if Jack Bog could go for a full week without using the expression Mayor Creepy, or describing our President in such negative terms. Would this have a positive effect on the tenor of the comments to his blog?
You can take personal action now by not giving in to the urge to "pile on". You can refrain from personal attacks on our elected officials and government workers. This does not mean you have to agree or condone all positions and actions. As a nation we can decide to work together for the best solutions to our problems or we can take the approach recently demonstrated in Tucson. It is up to you.

Our City At Work
Portland OR, led by Sam Adams (aka Mayor Creepy) and his happy band of sustainable bicycling, mass transit enthusiasts has opted for redistributing our property taxes via a mass printing campaign.
Yesterday I came home from work and found this colorful reusable shopping bag waiting for me on my front porch.
Inside the bag there was a veritable cornucopia of brochures, maps, guides, guide books, and more. There were materials from the local bicycle consortium, the department of transportation, Tri-Met, the Water Bureau, Office of Sustainability ad nausium. I am guessing the
re was at least $75.00 worth of printed materials. Of course this doesn't include the cost of the production, not to mention the massive employment rolls of the City required to produce this.
At first I was outraged at this absurd waste of money by our City. Then the Lady Wife pointed out that all this largesse was FREE!. When I reminded her that our taxes paid for all this, she pointed out that she had actually requested this material, and was delighted that the City could provide all this great information for FREE!
I guess it is FREE but I would prefer that we could fund our schools, patch the holes in our streets, replace the Sellwood bridge, and provide police and fire protection. At least now I have plenty of fuel for lighting the barbeque...

Just when I thought it couldn't get any worse...
The local Fox affiliate in Portland brings us this lovely pictorial of Area Man who strives to be the most tatooed person in the world. Having run out of skin surfaces he recently had the whites of his eyes tatooed as well. It really is difficult, yet fascinating, trying to imagine what is going on in this man's mind.

How do I know I am not overloading the machine with clothes? I have a Miele 4842.
Generally I put the clothes in until it reaches the top without pushing down on them. Do I need to be leaving space? When the machine is washing I see the laundry is halfway up the window. We use nice big bath towels. Can I fill the machine to the top or should I be doing it halfway or maybe three-quarters? All my laundry is coming out clean. I am happy with the results, except for my towels. They are still rough. I have been using a powder detergent and have now switched to liquid for the towels. That has helped a bit. The powder detergent contains zeolites. I am wondering if the zeolites is staying in the towels and making them rough. The rinse water is clear. Today I ran four towels in hot water and just washing soda. The water was clear. I dried the towels in my dryer on delicate heat cycle. Still no improvement. I can't think of anything else to do. I've changed detergents, spin cycles, water temperatures and less dryer heat. I've purchased brand new towels. They are thick and soft and I would like to keep them that way. Anyone have any suggestions for my towels? Plus, of course, my original question of how much clothes to place in the washer. |
Follow-Up Postings:
As with any front loading washer, the amount you put in depends on what type of clothes you wash. For stuff that wrinles easy, it is recommended to load it 1/2- 3/4 of the way, to give more movement of the clothes. Towels may not need as much room. You do not mention how much detergent you use, can I take it you are not using a fabric softener. Is your water hard or soft? All of these play in the end results. Are you over drying your towels, even on the delicate cycle? |

Towels are not the same today as they were 20-30 years ago. I don't think any thing is going to make them soft except massive amounts of fabric softener. I have some towels that I bought 40 years ago and some I bought 35 years ago that are washed with newer towels. The old towels are soft, the newer ones are not. |
gates1 Yes you are correct I am not using fabric softener. I have soft water (whole house softener)and therefore use 2-3 tblsp. of powder detergent. The liquid detergent I use 1 tblsp. otherwise I get way too much sudsing. All detergents used are HE. I've put vinegar in the rinse, also, but I've stopped using fabric softener a few years back, simply because I want less chemicals left on my clothes. I have played with the amount of powdered detergent. The towels remain the same. That is why I wonder if the zeolite contained in the powder is not washing out. Yet the rinse water is nice and clear. Overdrying is not the issue, I'm pretty sure on that point. Kris zone6 I agree towels are the same. I have towels that I use for the dogs that are 20 plus years old. They were always washed in a top loader. When I wash them in the front loader, they are still nice and soft (at least for now). I guess I will begin using my newly purchased towels and use only liquid detergent and time will tell if they remain soft. Its all a bit frustrating. |

Soooo...Did you kick some Family Butt while you were there? HA!! Proud of 'ya. So,yours truly has helped the U.S.A. economy by purchasing a new HDTV. The only problem is that I got the JB Jingles treatment since it wasn't in stock and won't be delivered till Dec. 6th. I'll have to give my good neighbor a key to let them in and hook it up. :(( On the bright side,I should be home for the Super Bowl and actually get to watch it. How's things at work going? Take care and be safe Sista'.
Where is everybody? You Slackers!!! HA!! Gawd it feels good to be home. Big Blue is getting a needed rest and I have chores to do. Grabbed a cold one first thing in the door,went out back to say Hi to WD and we conversed for awhile. Traffic was a pain...a cross between Nascar and bumper cars.

Good afternoon all! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had a 30 degree temp drop, and it is now snowing. What a difference a day makes, as the say! @Truth- I wonder if everyone is out shopping today? There are deals to be found, I guess. I hate to say this already, but Christmas is just around the corner. Where did the year go? Have a great weekend everybody!
Good morning all! Quiet day in the Klatch today, as most of you are sleeping off the triptophan induced coma...

The Francesco Fazio Square Bell lighting design gives the illusion that these are single units when in fact, they are five in one, creating an asymmetrical pyramid shape.
As a designer, Francesco Fazio's interior designs focus on practicality through simplicity while simultaneously proving the illusion of depth with each creation. The angled design for the Square Bell light fixtures provide ample lighting in various directions, making this perfect for large rooms or spaces. Strung together by a single gold rope, the Square Bells are reminiscent of old light fixtures that are modernized for today's chic architecture.
Though the lamps are only available in stark white, the glazed ceramic hanging lamps emanate a minimalistic ambiance that can be suited for almost any room.

yeah i dont think this one will be making it out on the sound, probably just be relegated to my little lake and an area of lake Washington that is not far from me that holds some nice smallmouth where I dont have to paddle to far. If I get into it and really enjoy fishing from it I will look at picking up a 12 or 14 footer next fall.
I've been fishing from an Emotion Mojo Angler for about 3 years....12.5', 61 lbs...I love it, comfortable, and stable. Before that I fished out of sit-inside yaks, and found them confining and inconvenient to access gear...and too damn tippy feeling for fishing. With this SOT I can even hang my legs in the water and sit sidesaddle if I want....great secondary flotation. The neat thing about a SOT is not worrying about rough water, waves, or getting swamped...everything just zips out the scupper holes....and you're sitting high and dry, including any gear you store inside the watertight hatches.
Amen, brother. I love all the things you mentioned. I am currently considering a nucanoe 12 frontier.......I love the 12 foot kayak I have now....but....there is always the dream of something better.......harder to tip, easier to stand up in, better to rig. There are lots of good choices out there right now, but..............nucanoe is on my radar!!
I just got the Nucanoe Frontier 12 this summer. I haven't used it much yet but, so far, what I really like about it are: it's a tandem, great stability (my kids have jumped up and down on it and it refuses to tip over), and I can stand up and cast from the deck. What I don't like about it are: it's too heavy (80+ lbs with the seats installed so it's not easy to car top it by myself) and I can't get into a comfortable paddling position with my seats (Captain's Seats).
Holy crap. Really? I would have thought by the photos and videos I've seen (LOTs of those!) that the seating would be primo. Especially compared to standard kayak seating of any kind. 80 pounds is alot but........my little yak is like: 60 plus sooooooooo with a couple of wheels seems like problem solved. Tell you what: Sell me your frontier!
Perhaps the seating is not ideal for me because I am wearing a PFD (the Stohlquist Fisherman PFD) that has a thicker than average back. This pushes my body forward more than I would like. The seat bottom is comfortable enough. Yes, the wheels help in transporting it once it's on the ground. The problem I have is actually lifting it onto the roof rack on top of my van / truck with my bad back. Getting it onto the top of a passenger car is a lot easier.
flyfish4, you can either change out your seats for some with lower backs, or get a kayak fishing PFD designed with the flotation material on the back positioned higher, so that it clears the top of your seat back. My NRS Chinook kayak fishing PFD seems to work well and remain comfortable for paddling (and leaning back in the seat) with both of my kayak seats as well as all of those standard drift boat and pontoon seats (plastic, lightly padded, back folds forward).
Yes I have. Here is a shot of the 2HP Honda I have used. I needed this to go up against the current on my local river. I have to use an extension handle and swivel the seat sideways with my feet resting on the gunwhale (try doing that in a regular kayak!). Adjusting the throttle is difficult because it a slide lever on the motor, not a twist-handle type. I usally reach back with my emergency paddle and whack the lever a bit to adjust the lever. The emergency cord is on my wrist if I need to slow quickly. To reduce the awkwardness a bit I purchased a 55 lb electric motor this summer. The twist handle made changing speeds much easier. I don't know if it will have enough thrust to move me upriver in the spring though. My plans are to have foot-pedal controlled steering and front-mounted controls for the throttle. I bought a pedal kit but it is not installed yet. Still dialing it in. I did find that while using the electric motor with the extension handle, that I could stand facing rearward, put the electric motor in reverse (slowly) and drop a drag anchor off the trolley toward the front of the boat (upriver). So I have effectlvely turned it into a one-person drift boat: electric motor pulling me downriver slowly while the anchor slows the drift. With the extension handle at my knees I can easily steer as necessary. I even found the sweet spot where the motor was off center just enough to counter the drag anchor being sligtly off center on the trolley. This kept me going in a straight line with no need for correction. I could then cast where I needed to while standing. BTW: I bought a PFD from Cabelas that is designed to be worn on a kayak seat. I sit nicely in the folding seat and it does not push me forward. I avoid the trouble of cartopping. I bought an old Holsclaw trailer for it and added some cross bunks to it. I am thinking of enclosing the entire kayak in a box with a lid. That way I can leave all the equipment and tackle in the kayak and just close and lock the lid. Makes for faster launching and retrieval.
Thanks for the pic, Frank. Looks good. The seat on your Frontier 12 is the same style I like and use. When i had my old 13' sq stern aluminum canoe set up with a trolling motor (either 30# or 50# thrust), my seat was close enough to the stern so that a regular extension handle would work great for when I was standing while under power. While seated, I didn't need to use the extension. It was excellent for going upstream. Helped out with steering and maneuvering going downstream, too. Batteries were located in the bow for weight distribution. I had a bow-mounted anchor pulley and an 8# mushroom anchor. Was a very fishable rig. I'm looking to set up another similar system, but not with an aluminum hull. As for now, if I want to take advantage of electric power, I like this mini-drifter set-up:
I don't if this would help but I load our SOT kayaks into the back of my 2007 Toyota Tacoma with the tailgate down (I have a nice ARE canopy top, and simply leave the rear window up if I'm carrying two kayaks). Both of the kayaks hang out beyond the end of the tailgate about 4 feet, so on each kayak I attach two cam-action cargo straps to the outer nose of each kayak...the other end of the cargo strap to an attachment point at the top of the truck bed sidewall. I pull 'em tight, throw a big bungee across the kayak(s).....and nothings going anywhere, even on a rutted mountain road. The main point is that lifting a kayak by yourself to truck bed level is pretty easy...just slide them in until they butt up against the cab end of the truck bed. Put a red warning flag on the end of the kayak so some dumbass doesn't impale their radiator on your protruding kayak. Very fast to load and unload.
carrying in the truck bed is way easier than a roof. i use a truck bed extender which makes it even easier. Truck Bed Extender
I just read an article over on yakangler.com on the "top ten fishing yaks of 2013" and noticed that Nucanoe now makes the Frontier in a 10' solo model. That looks like something that would fit in the back of a truck. Beamy at 38"+ wide, so it won't win any races. But I think one of these might work with a trolling motor.
There are a bunch of demo Frontiers for sale in Bellingham: http://bellingham.craigslist.org/bod/4102771848.html That seems like a good price, especially the tan 12-footer. It's tempting.
Those are fantastic prices; I would snap one up. You will put your own dings in yours in short order anyway.
If I was serious about picking up a Frontier right now, I'd be wasting no time checking those out. Most times that you see a used plastic boat up for sale, it is advertised with the caveat, "Has the usual scratches." Although the 10 footer sounds easier to handle and might be something I'd like to add to a quiver of small craft, if I could only have one plastic yacht, then I'd go for a 12 footer. Generally speaking, I think 12' length is perhaps the best compromise between paddling efficiency, easy handling, and easy transporting in a fishing yak. However, you have to balance considerations about the length with weight and width, etc. The Nucanoes are a bit heavy and wide, but are stable and will take a motor. I was looking forward to Native's recently introduced "Slayer"model in the 13' pedal version ("Propel"), and it looks like something that I would prefer over the Hobie Mirage drive yaks, except that it weighs more than what I am looking for. At 101 lbs, it is going to require a beach cart, and maybe a trailer.

A bracing account of a war that lingers in our collective memory as both ambiguous and unjustly ignored.
For Americans, it was a discrete conflict lasting from 1950 to 1953. But for the Asian world the Korean War was a generations-long struggle that still haunts contemporary events. With access to new evidence and secret materials from both here and abroad, including an archive of captured North Korean documents, Bruce Cumings reveals the war as it was actually fought. He describes its origin as a civil war, preordained long before the first shots were fired in June 1950 by lingering fury over Japan's occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945. Cumings then shares the neglected history of America's post–World War II occupation of Korea, reveals untold stories of bloody insurgencies and rebellions, and tells of the United States officially entering the action on the side of the South, exposing as never before the appalling massacres and atrocities committed on all sides.
Elegantly written and blisteringly honest, The Korean War is, like the war it illuminates, brief, devastating, and essential.
"A powerful revisionist history . . . a sobering corrective." —The New York Times
"Worth reading . . . This work raises the question of what Korea can tell us about the outlook for Iraq and Afghanistan." —Financial Times
"Well-sourced [and] elegantly presented." —The Wall Street Journal

Vertical Intermix Chamber and TMP Enterprise
View Single Post
July 10 2009, 11:45 AM
Re: Vertical Intermix Chamber and TMP Enterprise
I've never really understood how the saucer can be able to travel at warp without the nacelles, as surely the nacelles generate the subspace/warp field necessary?
Most Trek starships don't have "nacelles" - only Starfleet vessels tend to have those. Yet most if not all Trek starships appear to have "warp coils", the things that sometimes are positioned inside nacelles, sometimes inside casings, sometimes inside side or top bulges, sometimes at the very heart of the ship...
The usual hint of the presence of a set of warp coils is a visual glow through some sort of a "field window". Many Starfleet ships have blue glow at the nacelles or cowlings. And remarkably, the saucer of the E-D has intense blue glow on two sets of squarish windows at the aft topside. This would be an excellent place for the saucer's warp engines, close to the impulse engines and their reactors, and close to the reputed saucer aft photon torpedo launcher which would have to have an antimatter source.
There is no clear indication on the TMP engine core that crystals are contained within, unlike the TNG Enterprise where there is a central crystal housing.
Yet there isn't really any evidence of active crystals being located anywhere
, either. If they are in the very heart of the reactor in TNG and ENT, and in TOS "Elaan of Troyius" and the like this seems to be true as well, why assume they would occupy a radically different location in the machinery of other eras?
OTOH, on today's ships one may confuse a reciprocating steam engine (an external combustion engine) and a diesel engine (an internal combustion engine) because both have cylinders and pistons, even though the fuel is in a completely and fundamentally different location in the two. Perhaps the TMP ship was based on a completely different powerplant than the TOS and TNG ones, not just in configuration, but in operating principle as well?
..the identical reactor chamber seen in Voyage Home containing crystals..
Or the identical access point to the conveyor/tubemail/waldo that takes the crystals from the shirtsleeves environment to the hellfires of the intermix chamber?
That'd be a somewhat logical path of development: in ENT, one couldn't manipulate the dilithium at all, in TOS and TMP one could manipulate it by feeding it into a robotic system, and in TNG one could directly access it at the very reaction site.
It is a reasonable assumption, given the evidence, that both Klingon and Starfleet warp technology functions using similar principles.
Indeed, many a TOS episode was based on the premise that Klingons covet the exact same resources as the UFP. So their technologies in general might be very similar, perhaps due to industrial espionage.

Location: Hawks Cay Resort,61 Hawks Cay Boulevard, Duck Key, FL 33050
Prerequisite: Prior completion of an Economics Institute for Judges at George Mason, Northwestern (prior to June 2010), Brookings, Kansas, or Chapman.
Program Description: Our Case Analysis Seminar Series is designed to introduce and reinforce economic concepts and ideas that are directly relevant to legal and policy analysis. All applicants are required to identify a case that they would like to see analyzed. The case does not have to be one that the applicant has adjudicated. This course has a limited number of participants to allow for greater interaction and analysis.
Application Process: Applications are due by September 1, 2014. Applications must be complete in order to be considered. The faculty panel will review all application materials – with particular emphasis on the selected case and the judge's rationale for suggesting the case – in order to ensure a thorough and robust curriculum. All applicants will be notified by October 1, 2014 as to whether or not they have been accepted into the program.
*The application deadline has passed; we are no longer accepting applications for this program.*
