4 good stuff...naveed2k | 20/12/2010 | See all naveed2k's reviews (1)the tray is for 14' to 17' laptops. Ive a 17' laptop that is nearly 2 years old and was getting too hot to handle. got this tray and noticed an immediate effect (about 20 mins onwards). fan no longer is noisy and its lowered the temps underneath.whats good about this cooler is that the fans can be adjusted so you can place them where its hottest as opposed to being in a fixed place. ive left them at the default place which is in the centre and doing a good job. Uses 1 usb port to power the fans and the usb connector has a usb port to connect to so you dont lose a usb connection. At time of writing this review ive found that the mousepad area has significantly lowered in temperature and is now much cooler to touch.All in all a good purchase.
5 Incredible, i would recommend this to anyone, I LOVE IT!Krioba | 11/05/2011 | See all Krioba's reviews (2)Before i bought this product my Laptop would crash when i played Starcraft 2 or any other similar 'spec' games. After buying this incredible product for an amazing price there is no crashing at all before i bought it my system core temp was 70 degrees celcius now it is 50C. The adjustable fans are brilliantly made and the whole unit feels sturdy and druable. The fans are well sized and fast and the frame elevates the back of your laptop for air conditioning while keeping it in place with rubber tabs. If you want a laptop cooler then this is the one to buy, 5/5 no problems at all :D
5 Brilliant coolerDanWS12 | 24/08/2011 | See all DanWS12's reviews (1)Decided to buy this after a lot of research into the best laptop coolers. I have a 15.6 inch laptop and this is perfect. My laptop used to get extremely hot and it started to become a big problem. This cooler does the job brilliantly and now my laptop stays nice and cool. What's more, the fans are extremely quiet and barely noticeable. You can positon them anywhere you want and they do a fantastic job. So glad I chose this product, if you're having any doubts about buying this then let me tell you, this is a brilliant cooler. One of the best buys I've made.
5 COOL(er) is the MASTER!derango | 10/08/2011 | See all derango's reviews (7)Great piece of kit as it does what's described & more. If looking to buy a rest, with extras , for your lap-top no need to search further. This quality constructed rest has to be one of the bargain purchases of the year as it's great looking & multi-functional: Ergonomic & light, movable fans for your lap-top's "hot spots", comfortable on your lap, acts as a solid sleeve protector when in your bag travelling & finally at a penny less than fourteeen pounds, awesome. Thank you Cooler Master & Play.com.
5 ExcellentFlix058 | 23/01/2013 | See all Flix058's reviews (11)Its extremely quiet and does the job perfectly. When I was looking at the description I was a bit worried about how exposed the fans are, however its not an issue, they are tucked away nicely!This item is much better than another cooling deck I've had before. The price is excellent and the two fans do the job well.

Thanks everyone for your answers. On my DE warehouse the phoenix 2000 was on BK for the last two weeks, the dynamic-s was not, but I could hold myself and not by it =) And today I looked at hobbyking in my local DE Warehouse, and guess what, they had ONE Phoenix 2000 ARF in stock. Since today is my BD I could hold myself and ordered one
Here I need your help. The DE warehouse only has following low KV motors in stock (didnt look < 1000 kv though) NTM Prop Drive Series 35-36A 1400Kv / 550W NTM Prop Drive Series 35-30A 1400kv / 560w NTM Prop Drive 35-42 Series 1000KV / 700W NTM Prop Drive Series 35-48A 1100kv / 640w All have 4mm shaft Okey I will buy the 4mm folding prop spinner. But the question is - what motor to buy and what props to use ? I can get following folding props: 12x7 12x6 11x8 11x6 10x6 9x5x8 9x6 9x5 8x6 I like this motor NTM Prop Drive Series 35-30A 1400kv / 560w because of high KV so I can fly faster + its max current is 41A and @ 12v it gives 420W or 560W on 4s. There is also this motor NTM Prop Drive 35-42 Series 1000KV / 700W (. Max current is 47A and 450W @ 3s or 700W @ 4s. Will those two motor fit in the nose of the phoenix ? What props should I use for both motors? All in all I would like to go with 1400kv for need for speed, or is 1400kv already to high KV for such a plane ? What horizontal speed can you get with 1000kv motor ? |

I was able to fly my Phoenix Evolution glider for the first time since my big accident. I did a night flight and it went up and handled good. I have to adjust the ailerons some. Getting restricted movement in one because the tape is not letting it move.
Also, I quickly threw on my led lights. I forgot to do the bottom left wing so I was flying with both top wings lighted but only the bottom left wing lighted. With lights running down the fuselage, it sort of looked like a flying "L". It was much harder to maintain orientation and so I did not get very high or far out. I worked on the led lights tonight for about two hours. Hope to have all the lights back on for a Sunday night flight. |

I took her out for a flight today, everything worked great, new esc has brake enabled. solid control rods were good. I noticed the tail (not elevator) is loose at the front edge ? it moves left and right quite a bit,screws are tight it is right at the tip where it sits on fuselage. i put tape on to hold it still today,but going to use glue or something to keep it there has anyone else seen this on theres ? I had the Go pro on my head but guess i didnt get it turned on correctly was very cold and windy !

Sir Alex Ferguson and Singapore
By Dr Wong Wee Nam
16 May 2013
When Sir Alex Ferguson announced his decision to quit as manager of the Manchester United football team, he created a shockwave in the football world. Who would have expected the most successful football manager in the world to leave so suddenly when his passion for the game is still evident in recent games? Nevertheless, the decision is a correct one. Age is catching up on him. He has to leave sooner or later. So what better time to leave than at the pinnacle of his career?
I like Sir Alex, not only for bringing up the great MU teams that have given me countless hours of viewing pleasure, but also for not forgetting his roots and always feeling for the working class in spite of his success and wealth.
A fraudulent election outcome

Low Thia Khiang reacts to Michael Palmer's resignation
Everyone should listen carefully to Mr Low Thia Khiang's reaction to Michael Palmer's resignation. Unlike how the mass media and the PAP launched scathing attacks in the wake of the Yaw Shin Leong saga, Mr Low was scrupulously fair to all parties concerned, and he even recognized Mr Palmer's valuable contribution as former Speaker of Parliament. The contrast is so distinguished it really puts the PAP and the MSM to shame.
This is what politics can — and should — be.
PM Lee sets up facebook page
WARNING: Some paragraphs are ever so slightly tongue-in-cheek.
Written by Ng E-Jay
21 April 2012
Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong set up his own facebook page on Friday, 20 April 2012. It can be accessed here.
In his "welcome" message, Mr Lee said that "the social media (has) changed the way we live, work and play, especially the way we connect with one another", and that having watched his colleagues on facebook, he has decided to "join the fun".
Cherry Picking
While Malaysia's government is forced to embrace change, our government still resists change
Written by Ng E-Jay
19 September 2011
A very significant political development happened in Malaysia last week. On Thursday, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced that Malaysia's Internal Security Act (ISA) would be completely repealed, along with the 1969 Emergency Ordinance which also allows for detention without trial.
According to PM Najib's press release (attached at the bottom of this article), these laws would be replaced with ones which incorporate greater judicial oversight as well as limit police autonomy, and the new laws will be enacted under Article 149 of the Federal Constitution.
Point number 25 of the press release states: "Above all, the government will ensure that the rights of those involved will be safeguarded. Legislation formulated will take into consideration fundamental rights and freedom based on the Federal Constitution. The new laws will provide for a substantially shorter duration of police custody and further detention can only be made with a court order, except laws pertaining to terrorism which will remain under the jurisdiction of the minister."
Let us unite and set our sights on the future general election
28 August, 2.30am
Some people are now attacking Tan Jee Say's supporters in online forums, accusing them of robbing victory from Dr Tan Cheng Bock and handing victory to Dr Tony Tan.
It is very unfortunate that some people choose at this moment to be so divisive and to play partisan politics in such a petty manner.
This is a time for people to unite and look to the future, not for one group to start attacking another group. That is all I have to say. I abhor such pettiness and narrow-mindedness. I hope this stops.
We have to look toward the future general election and continue working for the good of Singaporeans.
Emotional dilemna created by WP? Mr George Yeo, the PAP did it first in 1991!
It is the PAP who started playing the emotional dilemna game, not the opposition.
Written by Ng E-Jay
29 April 2011
Mr George Yeo, leader of PAP's Aljunied GRC team, has lambasted the Worker's Party (WP) for putting Aljunied voters into what he terms an "emotional dilemna".
On Thursday, Mr Yeo said that the WP has placed upon Aljunied residents the "burden" of the opposition cause and the task of supporting the larger interests of the opposition at the potential expense of their own "enlightened self interest".
Kenneth Jeyaretnam's response to TOC lacked composure and calm befitting a prominent politician
Sgpolitics.net wishes all readers a MERRY CHRISTMAS and a very HAPPY NEW YEAR.
Written by Ng E-Jay
24 December 2009
A heated debate has broken out between The Online Citizen and its critics, with none other than Mr Kenneth Jeyaretnam, the Secretary-General of the Reform Party, joining the fray in an attempt, in his own words, to defend not only his late father but also the concept of opposition and democracy.
While Mr Jeyaretnam has every right to respond forcefully to what he perceived (no matter rightly or wrongly) to be a smear campaign directed at the late Joshua Benjamin Jeyaretnam (JBJ), and by association, the Reform Party, his response lacked the composure and calm befitting a politician of his stature. He is, after all, the Sec-Gen of a political party that has gradually gained prominence in Singapore, and his conduct should at all times reflect the weight and dignity associated with the post.
The outcry began when Terence Lee, a writer at The Online Citizen (TOC) website, published an article "Milder but more credible" on Sunday 20 Dec in which he suggested that the late JBJ had practised "rabble-rousing" politics and had engaged in "rambunctious" attacks on the People's Action Party (PAP). Terence also said that the present day Worker's Party is "set on treading the careful path" and seems adamant about avoiding the bevy of defamation suits suffered by its former Sec-Gen.

Image classification and retrieval with kernel methods
AbstractIn this chapter we review some kernel methods useful for image classification and retrieval applications. Starting from the problem of constructing appropriate image representations we describe in depth and comment the main properties of various kernel engineering approaches which have been recently proposed in the computer vision and machine learning literature for solving a number of image classification problems. We distinguish between kernels applied to images as a whole and kernels looking at image features. We conclude by presenting some current work and discussing open issues.

The Job Knob - MADE IN USA!
Acetylene tanks are exchanged over the counter at supply houses across the country on a daily basis. Many of these tanks do not come with a mechanism on the valve to open them, only a metal shank. Currently technicians use any tool handy to open the tank, from channel locks and pliers to wrenches.
The Job Knob offers the user the ability to open and close the valve with ease without jeopardizing the integrity of the shank. The Job Knob also magnetically stays with the tank in use until the time of exchange; where it can be easily slid onto the new tank valve until the next exchange.
Always have a tool to open your tank, and most importantly it will be right were you left it...on the tank!
Posted by HeatGeek on 4th Aug 2014
Like the other reviewer, the product does it's job but the form of the knob is hard on the hands and the bottle is difficult to open if the valve is closed off tightly, A slightly larger knob and and a rubberized coating would help. As an added tip I wanted to make sure the knob didn't get lost so I used aircraft cable to secure the knob by drilling a hole through the knob face and threading the cable through the hole to use it as a tether and securing the other cable end to my torch tote. all in all it works great.
Posted by Unknown on 15th May 2014
I like the way it fits and the magnetic hold. If it was just a little bit bigger around, it would make turning on some of the tighter tanks easier and easier to grip.

We took the 3 top sellers and did a dry dog food comparison of these National brands. The results (below) will shock you. Who would have thought!
Low fat dog food labels are often misleading. Did you know that there is not any official regulation to provide the amount of calories on the dog food label?
You see, only the more reputable brands of weight loss dog food volunteer this information. And it is "volunteer", not mandatory that pet food manufacturers print this nutritional information on their packaging. So first off, if a package does not show the complete nutritional data, don't buy it. They must be hiding something.
It's important to know that dog foods can be labeled lean or light or possibly low calorie - but this means nothing to you as the consumer, merely a packaging ploy.
However, if a dog food bears the words 'reduced calories' then it must contain fewer calories than it's full calorie version of the same food. Ditto with lower in fat or reduced fat. Confusing, isn't it!
Let's compare 3 of the best selling, dry kibble low fat dog foods side by side by side. They all offer you the calorie information necessary for an informed decision, where as many brands do not.
Calories... 3080 Kcal (229Kcal/cup) Fat... 8% Protein... 17% Quality of ingredients... Rice is the main ingredient followed by lamb meal (could be any part of the lamb - hoofs, ears, etc.) in this Nutro Natural Choice dog food, then it moves into lots of chemicals so it qualifies as a "complete and balanced" dog food. |
Natural Choice Lite Dog Food, on SALE here |
Moving on to our next dry dog food comparison in the weight loss dog food category...
Calories... 2997 kcal (295 kcal / cup) Fat... 8% Protein... 20% Quality of ingredients... Corn is the main ingredient in Science Diet Lite, followed by more carbs then chicken by-products (could this be feet and beaks?), yes chemicals here, too. |
Hill's Science Diet Adult Light Dry Dog Food, best price |
Iams dog food is a best seller in most the the dry dog food categories, and here are the results for their weight loss dog food...
Calories... 3392 kcal (333 kcal / cup)
Corn is the main ingredient (again) followed by chicken by-products, followed by more grains before real protein is listed. |
Iams Weight Control ProActive Dry Dog Food, best price |
Certainly you have other choices when it come to feeding your dog a low fat dog food, but these were selected as the most purchased in the Pet Stores we interviewed (Jasper just loves to go shopping for dog food, or food of any kind!).
We have to go with Natural Choice Nutro Lite, based solely on the ingredients. Rice is a great source of vitamins. Each brand was close in fat content, and protein can easily be adjusted by offering some real meat every other day.
The dog food brands that fill your dog dish with filers such as corn and over-processed grains are only doing so to cut cost and still meet minimum requirements. Real is well, real.
Natural Choice Lite Dog Food, on SALE here1.) Measure your dog's food, instead of just guesstimating by pouring our of the bag. Really, it may seem like extra work, but you could easily just leave a measuring cup right in the bag or pet food storage container.
That way anyone who is in charge of feeding times, won't have to fumble - or worse - just dump into the dog dish.
2.) Feed on a regular schedule. Many dogs lose weight when fed 3 - 5 small meals a day, but we realize that is not always practical.
At least instead of just one giant meal, try feeding your dog twice a day, in measured amounts.
3.) Go out for walks! You can probably use the extra exercise just as much as your dog can.
Schedule a trip at least once a week (Saturdays are our favorite times) to the local dog park. Let your dog run and play off leash with Jasper, and Sparkey and the whole gang.
MapMyDOGWALK app (it's a new Free app you can download from iTunes) is new - and Jasper and I think it's super! Easily keep track of your doggie outdoor adventures - this app will keep both of you on the right walk to better health.
From Obese To Oh My Gosh Gorgeous!
You can do it! Our neighbor, Rosie, needed desperately to lose weight - or face knee surgery. Poor Rosie... you could see she was in pain, and rarely played with us at all when we would visit.
However, Rosie lost the weight she needed to lose, by staying on her same favorite dry dog food -
but eating far less.
Dave tried her on a low fat dog food, and she spit it out (who could blame her it tasted mightly yucky).
Knowing that things were going to get tough, Dave kept her on the food she already was used to. Since Rosie already liked the taste, it helped her to stick to her doggie diet.
She was given 1 measured cup both morning and evening and absolutely no snacks in between. That's it, it was so simple!
She now enjoys running for the frisbee and playing with all us doggies as never before. It's so awesome!
Remember your dog will eat nearly anything you put in the dish, begin with the better low fat dog food and take it from there.

Although you can purchase knobs, they are typically very expensive. For me, a #10-32 screw costs $0.09 versus a knob which costs $2.80 which I found at a local Ace Hardware store. I will show you how I made my own knobs for less.
Step 1: Original Adapter
Step 2: Drill and Mark
Step 3: Wax and Level
Step 4: Measure, Clean, and Ready
Other than running decent blades the other thing you can do is bolt that saw down to something really heavy. By something really heavy I mean like a stand made out of thick steel. Attached to that kind of mass it might make the saw somewhat smoother. Mass dampens vibration. By really heavy I mean massive, a couple hundred pounds at least. Find an old straight engine block and bolt the saw to that, with the head removed of course. Naturally this makes the tool less portable, but sometimes you have to sacrifice some features in order to gain others.

Lend Lease aims for 15pc return on equity
PUBLISHED: 25 May 2011 11:25:18 | UPDATED: 26 May 2011 03:19:11PRINT EDITION: 26 May 2011Lend Lease's proposed development of the Barangaroo site on Sydney's Darling Harbour.
Construction company and property developer Lend Lease Group says it is on track to deliver its target full year return on equity (ROE) of 15 per cent.
"We are positive about the group's operating outlook and remain focused on optimising securityholder returns," chief executive Steve McCann said in a statement on Wednesday.
He also said the integration of the Valemus businesses of Abigroup, Baulderstone and Conneq was progressing well and the company was focused on delivering the increase to earnings announced at the time of the takeovers.
The company said at the time of the takeover in December that it was expected to be "circa 15 per cent" earnings per share accretive on a full year basis in 2011/12.
"We have clear priorities over the next 12 to 24 months to achieve our target of becoming the leading international property and infrastructure group," Mr McCann said.
Return on equity for the first half of 2011/12 for the company was 6.7 per cent.

President Obama said today it "makes absolutely no sense" that the Senate failed to confirm Richard Cordray to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and he accused Republicans of blocking key appointments to win political points.
"We are not giving up on this. We are going to keep on going at it. We are not going to allow politics as usual on Capitol Hill to stand in the way of American consumers being protected by unscrupulous financial operators," the president told reporters in the briefing room of the White House.
Republicans opposed Cordray's nomination not because of his qualifications but because they are trying to force structural changes to the agency. "I know that some of them have made an argument, well, we just want to sort of make some modifications in the law. Well, they're free to introduce a bill and get that passed," Obama said. "But part of what's happened over on Capitol Hill — not just on this issue but on every issue — is they will hold up nominations."
"Well-qualified judges do not get a vote. Assistant secretaries to the Treasury get held up for no reason," Obama said. "They are trying to see if they can use that to reverse some sort of law that's already been passed. That's what part of what gets the American people so frustrated. The do not think this is on the level."
Obama did not rule out the possibility of a recess appointment. "I will not take any options off the table when it comes to getting Richard Cordray in as director of the Consumer Finance Protection Board," Obama said. "My hope and expectation is that the Republicans who've blocked this nomination come to their senses."
On the broader payroll tax cut fight, the president warned again that lawmakers should not go home for the holidays until the payroll tax cut is extended, and that he will also postpone his Hawaii vacation if need be. "Get it done. And if not, you know, maybe we'll have a … white Christmas here in Washington," he said.
"This is not about me. They shouldn't extend the payroll tax cut for me. They shouldn't extend unemployment insurance for me. This is for 160 million people who in 23 days are going to see their taxes go up if Congress doesn't act," the president said as he stood before the White House clocks counting down to the moment when the payroll tax cut expires.
The president also spoke out against a move by House Republicans to tie action on the Keystone pipeline to the payroll tax cut. While Obama has said he would "reject" such a measure, Republicans claim the pipeline would create tens of thousands of jobs. "Here's what I know: However many jobs might be generated by a Keystone pipeline, they're going to be a lot fewer than the jobs that are created by extending the payroll tax cut and extending unemployment insurance," the president said.

Basically, it will show you what you need compiled into your kernel to support the hardware present at the time you did your 'lsmod'. For a starter, it might be a good idea for you to support loadable modules and to compile as such those drivers that leaves you with an interrogation mark. Using 'help' from menuconfig will actually help you figure out the driver name associated with the given module. One more thing helpful from your generic distro is to try 'dmesg' as it shows the hardware answer when a specific driver is loaded either as a module or built in the kernel. For those esoteric drivers you have no clues about; Google is your friend. First time kernel compilation might not be for the faint of heart but it is quite educative and gets you more intimate with your hardware. Otherwise, you could always try 'make oldconfig' to get it magically done but it is not why we are on LFS. Right? Lenny is prolly to use an old kernel where module names have changed or been updated. Both 'dmesg' and 'lsmod' will be more accurate on something younger. A recent live CD could help you with it. Don't give up if your first attempt to compile your kernel fails. IMO, the first time it succeeds is some good moments of self accomplishment. Good luck, Dom. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Are you tired of the annoying hot weather? Do you think that your country is the hottest?
Well, in Croatia, to be specific in Knin, a local TV station was filming the ground when a man came up, placing a ice cube on the floor so he waited to see how much time it is going to take for the ice cube to melt. How much do you think it took the ice cube to melt down? Well, you will be amazed. In 7 seconds, the ice cube turned into water! Now imagine walking without shoes on roads which melt ice cubes in less than 10 seconds! Also, think a little bit. Global warming? If an ice cube melts in 7 seconds, what do you think, how much time is it going to take for the sun to melt down the South and North pole? Hundreds of years.
I can't find the photograph, do you have any funny photos of the hot summer?

I had a charging order granted despite having an instalment order in place that I have been paying. It is not in default.
Can I appeal against the charging order arguing the following:
Section 86(1) The County Courts Act 1984:
Where the court has made an order for payment of any sum of money by instalments, execution on the order shall not be issued until after default in payment of some instalment according to the order.
This was further considered in the case of Mercantile Credit V Ellis in The Court of Appeal 1987. It was found that the wording of the Charging Orders Act states quite clearly that no further action could be taken without a default in payment. It should be noted, however, that in the case of Ropaigealach V Allied Irish Bank CA Nov 2001 where an instalment order is made AFTER an interim charging order has been made, a court has the jurisdiction to make a Charging Order final.
(I included Mercantile in my objection but not the County Courts Act)

Generally the phonics of Malay language consonants resemble English. However, when an English native speaker tries to speak bahasa Malaysia, we Malaysians can tell the difference without looking at their faces. The explosions in the production of b.p,d,t,g,k and the frequently epic failure in the ng- ny- department are the first things Malaysians will notice.
In fact, "Consonants on the end of words are often silent," writes James Alexander. Another author Michael Swan observes "...the infrequency of harsh combinations of unvoiced consonants...make
Malay a smooth and sweet-sounding language,"
The most distinctively Malay phonics, are these two consonant phonemes NY and NG. All BM dummies must know them. Let's begin with:
It is a nasal palatal sound.
Combination of NY with Vowels:
I have to mention the Ubiquitous NYA
1. It is a suffix to emphasize.
Please click here to refer to a lesson on exclaiming with "nya"
Mahalnya! ( So expensive ! )
Murahnya! ( So cheap! )
2. It is the English equivalent of his/hers/its.
Please click here to refer to a lesson on his friend and her friend.~~
Teman wanitanya ( his girl friend )
Teman lelakinya ( her boy friend )
Ekornya ( its tail )
Dia punya
P.S. If you can't be bother with proper Malay, you can use " dia punya" to express his/her/its still, you need to use nya.~~
Pernahkah anda cuba menyebut "Apa khabar?" dengan tepat? Biasanya saya dengar "Apa K-abar?", ataupun K-nya dibaca "lembut" sedikit. Setahu saya, bahasa Indonesia ada pilihan "kh-abar" atau "k-abar". Dalam bahasa Malaysia, setahu saya, kami tidak ada pilihan alternatif "k-abar". |
Have you ever tried to say "How are you?" correctly? Usually I hear "Apa k-abar?", or the K is softened a little. As far as I know, Indonesian has the option of "Kh-abar" or "k-abar". In Malaysia, as far as I know, we don't the the alternative option of "k-abar". |
Malay language and Sottish phonics share the same consonant sound in the form of "kh"
"KH" dikatakan sama dengan sebutan "lo-CH" bahasa Scotland. Setelah memerhatikan bagaimana orang Scotland menunjukkan sebutan "lo-CH", saya sendiri walaupun dapat menyebut "lo-CH" dan "KH-abar" berasa tidak selesa meluahkannya di depan orang lain. Sekurang-kurangnya di kampung halaman Sabah ini, tidak ramai orang yang bertutur sebegini. |
"KH" is said to sound like Scottish "lo-CH". After observing how a scot demonstrate the pronounciation of " lo-CH", though I myself is able to say "lo-CH" and "KH-abar", I feel akward saying them in front of other people. At least not in my homeland of Sabah, not many people speak this way here. |
"GH" ini lagi mencabar bagi dungu bahasa Perancis seperti saya. "GH", khabarnya, sama dengan "r" dalam bahasa Perancis. Kalau "Ghaib" masih saya terucap, sampai gambungan dengan "i" dalam "baligh", nyaris saya terludah... |
"GH" is more challenging for a French language idiot like me. "GH", is said to sound the same as the French "R". If it's "Gh-aib", I can still manage, when it's time to combine with "i" in the Malay word "baligh", I almost cough out phlegm... |
Foundation for both Malay language and French is "GH"

Sierra Club Bulletin: News for Members
Club's EPEC Sweep | Por Nuestras Familias | Home Front
Club's EPEC Sweep
For Team Environment, 1995 was what sports fans call a rebuilding year. The political arena, some will recall, was effectively owned and operated by the pollution lobby, the unofficial winner of the previous November's elections. Grateful (and beholden) congressional leaders were openly hostile to existing protections for public health and public lands, let alone the possibility of new ones. After a quarter century of steady gains, all environmentalists could do was play hard on defense and dream of better days ahead.
And rebuild. The Sierra Club, in particular, quickly set about working to increase its muscle by boosting the efforts of its chapters and groups throughout the United States. This renewed focus on the grassroots gave rise in 1997 to EPEC, the Environmental Public Education Campaign, and it's already paying dividends.
The EPEC program was designed to allow the Club's thousands of volunteer activists to tailor a broad message "Protect America's Environment: For Our Families, For Our Future"to local and regional needs. Whether walking precincts, staging rallies and media events, or swarming the letters-to-the-editor pages, volunteers in communities across the country have been talking about issues that resonate with their neighbors. And corporate campaign donors notwithstanding, what resonates with the public still strikes a chord with most decision makers. Some cases in point:
In Oklahoma, volunteers joined family farmers, rural residents, and fellow environmentalists to highlight the threats posed by mega-hog farms and other industrial-style livestock operations. The state legislature eventually banned such facilities.
In Montana, Club activists helped generate enough public outcry to convince authorities in Lewis and Clark National Forest to reject new oil-and-gas development on the Rocky Mountain Front, adjacent to Glacier National Park.
In North Dakota, a half-dozen Club members in the town of Willistonwhich is to say, all the Club members in townorganized to successfully block construction of a toxic-waste facility.
In Georgia, Club activists alerted DuPont stockholders, and eventually the entire country, to the folly of a proposed stripmine adjacent to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, causing the chemical giant to shelve the project.
In Louisiana, the Club's public-education efforts forced state regulators to step up testing for mercury levels in fish, and to expand public-health protections for citizens who might be exposed to contaminated fish.
Throughout the Northwest, activists have been rallying public opinion behind the endangered species that symbolizes the region, the salmon, and its equally imperiled habitat. One measure of the campaign's success: in September the region's four governors agreed to set up a forum to oversee salmon recovery. Through efforts like these, repeated in state after state, Club activists linked their local causes to nationwide policy objectives, from cleaning up our air and water to preserving public lands and endangered species. By helping their neighbors see the effects of federal policy, grassroots volunteers were instrumental in putting the environmental movement back on the offensive. A few of the highlights:
During the first half of 1997, the Club waged an all-out campaign to inform the public of the need for a tough new EPA proposal to reduce smog and soot emissions. In July, despite fervent opposition from polluters, President Clinton signed the proposed new rules into law.
The EPEC program made forest-road subsidies the focus of its efforts to mobilize public sentiment against exploitation of public lands. In January Clinton announced a plan to halt road construction in many (though not all) of the last remaining roadless areas in the public's forests.
After helping to beat back congressional assaults on the Clean Water Act in 1995, the Club in 1997 made clean water a centerpiece of its public-education efforts. The payoff came early this year, when Clinton unveiled his Clean Water Action Plan to address hog- and chicken-farm pollution, loss of wetlands, logging and grazing impacts, and other issues raised tirelessly by Club activists. Expect a repeat performance in 1998, when the EPEC program builds on last year's victories and pushes for additional funding for environmental initiatives and a stronger, more effective Endangered Species Act. In the next edition of the "Bulletin": a look at how EPEC organizers learn the ropes.
Por Nuestras Familias...
Polls show that Latinos are not just deeply concerned about the environment, they're eager to do something about it.
Which is why the Sierra Club, one of the nation's oldest and largest environmental groups, has joined forces with Santa Fe-based Hispanic Radio Network, the nation's oldest and largest educational Spanish-language radio service, to spread the word about saving the planet.
The airwaves alliance took wing in February and March, when the Club sponsored 40 segments of HRN's Planeta Azul (Blue Planet) a daily three-minute environmental report syndicated to 150 stations in the United States, Puerto Rico, and Latin America. The network and the Club plan to continue working together on ideas for several HRN programs, as well as a widely syndicated newspaper column.
"Hispanics consider the environment a legacy that is to be passed from one generation to another," notes Javier Sierra, HRN's managing editor. "The great thing about this partnership is that your objectives and our objectives are very similar."
To hear Planeta Azul, call Hispanic Radio Network at (505) 984-0080 and ask for information on stations in your area, or e-mail the network at email@example.com.
Home Front
In 65 chapters and hundreds of local groups spanning 21 ecoregions and two nations, Sierra Club members are hard at work protecting our natural heritage.
Atlantic Coast: BLUE SKIES FOR BLACKWATER A stone's throw from Blackwater Falls State Park and Monongahela National Forest, Blackwater Canyon looks like parkland to the kayakers of its river rapids and the hikers wandering its 12-mile trail. But recreationists found proximity didn't equal protection last year when the Allegheny Power Company sold a 3,000-acre tract of canyon land to a logging firm. With the habitat of black bear and the endangered Cheat Mountain salamander at stake, the West Virginia Chapter tried to nullify the purchase.
While the chapter's legal argumentthat state law prevented the salewas rejected by the Public Service Commission, the case's notoriety helped spur state legislators to work on a land swap. "The deal is a beginning, but it would protect only 700 acres," says Jim Sconyers, conservation chair of the West Virginia Chapter. "And it wouldn't prevent construction on Lindy Point, the area's most scenic overlook."
Sconyers believes that the best way to save Blackwater Canyon would be outright purchase by the U.S. Forest Service or the West Virginia State Parks Department. "You simply don't find many more places like this in the East. We can't just throw it away." While the chapter appeals the commission's decision, Sconyers urges the public to call Senator Jay Rockefeller at (202) 224-6472 and ask him to help save the entire canyon.
CONNECTING FOR JUSTICE Though thousands of miles apart, the working-class communities of Sydney, Nova Scotia, and Fort Valley, Georgia, both know what it's like to get dumped on. Residents of Sydney dwell next to a tidal estuary containing Canada's worst environmental blight700,000 tons of toxic sludge, the by-product of a century of steelmaking. Fort Valleyans live in the shadow of a Superfund site where pesticides are manufactured.
When activists from the two towns met in Fort Valley in a visit organized by Sierra Club of Canada they discovered they had something else in common: fighting spirit. Sharing comfort and counsel, they discussed strategies on strengthening community involvement and getting governmental agencies to take action. With new tactics in their tool kit, the Canadian activists are now preparing for a visit from their southern allies.
Sierra Nevada: SIERRA SCHOLARS College-bound youth in the Sierra Nevada interested in community service recently received a helping hand from the Sierra Club. To encourage new ideas on building strong and sustainable local economies, the Sierra Nevada Ecoregion Task Force invited high school seniors to submit essays on how to improve the quality of life in their hometowns. The ten most thoughtful and well-researched essays won their authors four-year scholarships of $1,000 per year, donated by an anonymous member. The essay-review committee, made up of church leaders, educators, and local Club members, is counting on the ten winners to put their fine words into action after graduation.
Great Northern Forest: ADIRONDACK JEWELS When heiress Marylou Whitney and her fiancé declared that the hotel and 40 exclusive homes they planned to build in Adirondack Park would make the Sierra Club proud, the Atlantic Chapter immediately worked on setting them straight. The publicity alone about a scheduled black-tie protest in front of a Whitney costume ball helped persuade the couple to drop the development scheme. Later, when negotiations to sell the majestic 14,700-acre forest to the state faltered, the chapter used rush-hour radio ads to pressure Whitney and New York Governor George Pataki to close the deal. At the last minute, Whitney signed on the dotted line for $17 million, giving the chapter a new goalchampioning the land's establishment as a proposed Oswegatchie Great Forest and Boreal Heritage Reserve.
Pacific Coast: CITIZEN GAIN The voter-mandated California Coastal Act explicitly requires protection of the state's breathtaking coastal vistas. Yet the Hearst Corporation recently muscled zoning approval from San Luis Obispo County officials to build a mega- resort on the shoreline, replete with three hotels, a dude ranch, and a 27-hole golf course. In the months leading up to a state Coastal Commission public hearing on the development, San Luis Obispo Chapter members worked furiously to mobilize the public, canvassing locals and going toe-to-toe with Hearst Corporation lawyers in a series of public debates.
"The response to our effort was nothing short of astounding," says chapter Chair Pat Veesart. "The commission received 5,000 letters and nearly 1,500 people attended the hearing." Swamped with demands to uphold the law, the commission voted unanimously to reject the Hearst project, leaving the craggy cliffs and unobstructed views of the Pacific Ocean intact for now. "People are feeling pretty darn good about this victory," says Veesart, "but we've got to keep an eye on this."
Pacific Northwest: GROWING PAINS Once one of North America's great wildlife nurseriessome historians believe on a par with Florida's Evergladesthe Klamath Basin in southwestern Oregon and northern California has lost 80 percent of its original 350,000 acres of wetlands to agricultural use. The remaining 70,000 acres, preserved in a complex of national wildlife refuges, hosts the largest winter population of threatened bald eagles in the continental United States and millions of migrating waterfowl. But because of the Bureau of Reclamation's water-allocation decisions, onions and sugar beets are compromising the creatures' habitat.
In recent years the bureau has diverted enough water out of the refuges to dry out marshes on migratory routes, killing thousands of endangered sucker fish, and exposing nesting white pelican colonies to coyotesall to irrigate farmland. The Mother Lode Chapter and its Shasta Group and the Oregon Chapter and its Rogue Group are suing the bureau to make sure that farmers' needs don't come before wildlife's in the Klamath refuges.

With a new children's book, a Macon great-grandmother is hoping to ease the separation anxiety that happens when parents have to leave their children in the care of others.
Author Linda Truit said her book, "My Momma Comes Back," was inspired by her own family.
"My own daughters and my daughter-in-law, plus every young mom I talk to, say that their first thought when being given their new born to hold after giving birth is 'How in the world will I ever be able to leave this precious person in the care of someone else,'" Linda said.
The main character in Linda's book is modeled on her two-year-old great-granddaughter who is cared for at a child care center and by family members while her mother is finishing her college education.
To help the child feel better, her grandmother composed a song called "My Momma Comes Back." The song became the basis of Linda's book.
She enlisted the help of other artists and muscians in Macon to create her book and the accompanying recording of the "My Momma Comes Back" song.
Linda is 74 years old, a colorectal cancer survivor and a former heart patient at Boone Hospital Center. She also has seven grandchildren who are Boone Babies.
"I have a multitude of reasons to think that Boone Hospital Center is a life-giving facility," she said.
The book can be purchased at www.grandmasbooksforkids.com. Linda also has a Facebook page for the book: www.facebook.com/MyMommaComesBack.

5 things WoW could learn from Star Wars: The Old Republic
AoE looting, redux
AoE corpse looting is the new hotness, and it's here to stay. The fact that Blizzard has not found a way to even make AoE looting an option in WoW yet goes beyond my capacity to understand. Rift made the concept part of the mainstream, and The Old Republic is solidifying the feature as a Day One expectation.
In both of these games, players can choose to loot all corpses in an area around them at once instead of having to click on each corpse individually. Not only is this a great quality-of-life change for players, since less clicking is usually a good thing, but it also helps many players with disabilities who have trouble finding that one corpse under a hundred.

Gallbladder Help with Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) Apple cider vinegar has been touted as a folk remedy and supplement to help your gallbladder and gallstone pain.
This natural home remedy, also called cider vinegar, ACV for short, contains acetic, lactic, and citric acids. However, the malic acid apple cider vinegar contains may be the most beneficial if you have gallbladder problems. Apple cider vinegar comes from fermented apple cider.

Madbury budget thinly attended
Sunday, February 16, 2014
Only a handful of people attended the Feb.10 public hearing on the selectmen's proposed town budget for 2014.
The selectmen were challenged to guarantee that the land, if purchased now, would never be developed. They said there is no guarantee, but that they have faith in the townspeople who have indicated on all Planning Board surveys that they want Madbury to retain its rural character would see to it that the land is kept open.
The Planning Board meeting will begin at 7 p.m.
Chamberlain was born in Brewer, Maine, and educated at Bowdoin College, where he taught before going into the Army in 1862 as a lieutenant colonel with Maine's 20th Infantry Regiment. He headed battles at Antietam, Fredricksburg and Chancellorsville, and was seriously injured at Petersburg in 1864.
This program is to be the beneficiary of an evening of humor and music. On Feb. 22, in the Northwood Congregational Church, Rebecca Rule and Vernon Cox will entertain with far-out and tall tales. Northwood's Rule is a well-known author as well as a humorist, while Cox has earned his kudos in Maine. |

Cars and equipment move into pits ahead of testing
Kuala Lumpurs Sepang International Circuit (SIC) has had a busy few days with the arrival of the Formula One teams ahead of next weeks official test. Ten of the 11 teams will be in action, in preparation for the forthcoming Malaysian Grand Prix.
Following the season opener in Australia, rather than returning to their various European bases, the teams cars and equipment were flown directly to Malaysia as part of a large and carefully-orchestrated logistical operation.
They are actually coming in six flights from Melbourne, with the last flight coming in on Tuesday with all the television equipment, Yunus Malek of freight forwarders Maju Senja told SIC. Altogether, it would be 600 tonnes of cargo.
In light of the test, which will include everyone bar Spyker, officials have concentrated on getting the teams cargo safely into Sepang on time - which has added to the already complex task of preparing for the Grand Prix on April 8.
However, close support from the Customs Department at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport ensured the Formula One cargo received swift clearance and customs officials were even posted at the circuit to monitor offloading.
The three-day Sepang session begins next Tuesday, after which the teams will have a week to analyse their test results ahead of first practice for the Malaysian Grand Prix.
Following the race, an even bigger logistical challenge awaits, with everything having to be packed up and transported to the Middle East in time for the Bahrain Grand Prix just a week later on April 15.

CENTRAL POINT, Ore. – Food stands and amusement rides are rolling in just in time for the 154th Jackson County fair.
Trucks carrying carnival rides were showing up all day Tuesday. Fair officials say there will be more than 40 trucks by the evening. Those rides will be set up throughout the week in preparation for the fair starting in a week.
"This will be our 28th year at the Jackson County Fair," vendor Daryl Whicheloe said.
The Southern Oregon food and beverage food cart is one of the first's to arrive at the fairgrounds.
"We do hand dipped corn dogs, a frozen drink stand, which has 10 different flavors of frozen drinks and best hamburgers in town," Whicheloe said.
Fair officials say they are making a lot of changes this year, including lower ticket prices and activates free with admission.
"We have to listen to the marketplace and we did," Jackson County Expo manager Dave Koellermeier explained. "We've been struggling and trying to make some accommodations and trying to improve our programing, and we know we can do it."
Already $300,000 dollars have been poured into the fair in upfront costs alone.
"You're doing all the prep work, you're getting stuff done, you're doing your repairs and that is of course by the county and the revenues we raise here that we pour back into the grounds," Koellermeier also said.
For the first time this year social media will become a part of the fair. The Jackson County Fair has YouTube, Facebook and Twitter pages for fans to connect with.
"It's just an easy way to get word of mouth out there," social media worker Alei Ghogan said. "It's just an easy way for us to communicate with fans who have questions, social media is huge, and it's everywhere."
Also new, are tickets to the fair. Whether that be general admission tickets or tickets to the carnival, they will be sold for presale at local retailers including Grange Co-op, Sherms, and Food for Less. Presalers can just go right through the gate. Their tickets will be taken and if they need to return they get their hand stamped and otherwise they can go in and enjoy the day
Tickets sold at the gate run at a higher price. Fair officials say they are expecting 80,000 people to come out the fair this year.
