Wrong 'Em Boyo LyricsArtist: The ClashAlbum: London Calling Stagger Lee met Billy and they go down to gambling Stagger Lee throwed seven Billy said that he throwed eight So Billy said, hey Stagger! I'm gonna make my big attack I'm gonna have to leave my knife in your back Why do you try to cheat? And trample people under your feet Don't you know it is wrong? To cheat the trying man So you better stop, it is the wrong 'em boyo You lie, steal, cheat and deceit In such a small, small game Don't you know it is wrong Billy Boy has been shot And Stagger Lee's come out on top Don't you know it is wrong To cheat the trying man To cheat Stagger man You'd better stop So you must start all over again-all over again You got to play it, Billy, play, you got to play it, Billy, play And you will find it is the right 'em boyo But if you must lie and deceit And trample people under your feet Don't you know it is wrong It is the wrong 'em boyo

I just read that peace lilly plants are poiseness. My little puppy has been nibbling occasionally on the leaves. Do I need to be concerned.
peace lilieslbiessen July 17th, 2008, 04:42 PM I just read that peace lilly plants are poiseness. My little puppy has been nibbling occasionally on the leaves. Do I need to be concerned. Purpledomino July 17th, 2008, 08:10 PM Yes you DO need to be concerned. This is a plant that is toxic to dogs, and you should not have this plant in your home, or at the very least, put it up high where your dog is certain to never get at it. I would never let a dog nibble on ANY houseplant EVER....there are just too many that are poisonous and it isn't worth the gamble. A small size dog such as yours probably would have to ingest less of the plant to do damage.....so please be very vigilant! katherine93 July 17th, 2008, 09:33 PM DO YOU NEED TO BE CONCERNED???? :wall::eek: I can't beleive you would even ask that! of course you should be concerned, You have written about health problems that your dog has been having, and then you find out that the plant your dog has been snacking on is poison and you still ask if you should be concerned? Im sorry i kinda flew off the handle buut.. ugh:wall: Can you please take her to the vet and remove the plant from your house, for the good of your dog...sorry i was so rude about how i said it, i sure hope you arent scared away from this forum! ancientgirl July 17th, 2008, 09:47 PM Please, take the plant away from anywhere your dog is. If you like having plants around your house, you can find a list of toxic plants and safe plants I believe on the ASPCA site. I think it would also be a good idea to take your dog to the vet with this new information. Perhaps it will help solve some of his health issues. Good luck! 14+kitties July 17th, 2008, 10:31 PM Here is a list for you. It may be a good idea to print it and keep it handy. Poisonous Plants Dangerous to Dogs The following is a list of plants that can be toxic or fatal to dogs: A Aloe Vera Amaryllis Apple (seeds) Apple Leaf Croton Apricot (pit) Asparagus Fern Autumn Crocus Avocado (fruit and pit) Azalea B Babys Breath Bittersweet Bird of Paradise Branching Ivy Buckey Buddhist Pine C Caladium Calla Lily Castor Bean Ceriman Charming Dieffenbachia Cherry (seeds and wilting leaves) Chinese Evergreen Christmas Rose Cineraria Clematis Cordatum Corn Plant Cornstalk Plant Croton Cuban Laurel Cutleaf Philodendron Cycad Cyclamen D Daffodil Devils Ivy Dieffenbachia Dracaena Palm Dragon Tree Dumb Cane E Easter Lily (especially in cats!!!!)

She said "Where have all your house plants gone, you use to love your plants" All I said was " I love my dog more". Take your dog to a vet, talk to your vet. tstav August 5th, 2008, 11:16 PM Hi there, A friend gave me some seeds for Oriental Poppies and before I plant them and share them, I wanted to make sure they weren't harmful to my pets. Does anybody know? Thanks! Tom :pawprint: rainbow August 6th, 2008, 01:38 AM All parts of the poppy are poisonous.... http://www.sniksnak.com/plants-toxic.html |

he must either have great luck, or he's done something terrible to pay for his success.
whatever he is doing, it seems to be working.
Yep, it's all about luck with talentless hacks like himself and Robin Williams.
NBC, a network struggling with crappy shows, it shooting itself in the foot by putting him in the late night spot when they replace Jay with Conan.
Bring back the Sig Test!
Conan is ****ing awesome, but sticking Conan beside Kevin Eubanks and the rest of the assclowns at the Tonight Show would suck some inordinate amounts of ass.
Move Conan's entire show to the Tonight Show time slot, then you (NBC) are good. Then it won't matter how much Fallon chews.
Ten tenths.
Are they talking about doing that?
I would think Conan would threaten to quit if they tried to pull that. That would screw up his whole act, and require him to move to socal.
Plus, once Jay retires, or perhaps just starts doing more with cars, Kevin and all of them even if not funny are talented and will have no trouble just playing music, so I bet they wouldn't even want that. Wouldn't seem to make a bit of sense.
Bring back the Sig Test!
I thought he absolutely stole the show in the 19.3 seconds he was in Band of Brothers. I've never seen someone act so well, all the while driving a vintage WWII Jeep. Sheer genius what he did with that scene. Made the other 26 hours of the series seem utterly pedestrian by comparison.
Has anyone else noticed that 47 is a magic number?
As untalented as he is, the Bee Gee's spoof on SNL did make me laugh.
Good times.
The same reason Jerry Seinfeld and Will Farrell made it -- it's the Hollywood exec's way of saying talent doesn't matter, he can MAKE a star!

That's how I used to do it. Factor by the change in the size (area) of the paper then make a test strip. Then you have to also consider that your contrast is going to change, too.
I made up a chart for my most-used print sizes: 4x5, 5x7, 8x10, 11x14. Just multiply by the factor from the chart and add or subtract contrast as indicated.
But, it's been months since I did all that. I don't even know where my chart is. I think I tossed it out.
Since I got an Analyser Pro, I don't putz around with that stuff anymore. I just take two readings then push the "Print" button.
Seriously! Pull your Christmas gift card money together and get one!

If you have a history of fibroids and you're still bleeding after 3 weeks, I would suggest you contact your doctor. Three weeks in an awfully long time to bleed. Please contact your physician and let us know what he/she says.

Five Skills to Learn if You're Looking for a Job
Public speaking: Consider polishing your presentation skills by joining your local chapter of Toastmasters International. The organization brings together groups of 20 people or fewer, who meet weekly to practice speeches and get feedback.
"It can help you in a future job but it will also improve your networking and help polish your pitch to prospective employers," says John McKee, founder of the Colorado-based consulting firm BusinessSuccessCoach.net.
LEED certification: Want to get ahead in real estate or construction? Consider seeking certification in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design from the U.S. Green Building Council. Applicants must learn about sustainable building and energy and water management to become certified, which costs $200.
Home sellers hire LEED-certified real estate agents to help them value eco-friendly improvements they've made. LEED-certified builders are tapping into demand for green development.

Letter from the Director
The South Tampa Family YMCA Tackle Football program dedicates itself to high mental and physical development as well as one on one teaching on how to play the game of football. Not only does the program improve developmental skills in all aspects, it teaches the importance of character values in life and the athletic arena. Some examples include how to being a team player, how to having fun, and how to be responsible . Our program also offers what many leagues don't and allows everyone the opportunity to play. It's the Y way!
Tackle Football Coordinator
YMCA 8 on 8 TACKLE FOOTBALL RULES
The most important thing that we should be thinking about is that this tackle football program is designed for the children to have fun and learn the sport of tackle football in a YMCA setting.
Practices: You will get two practices a week during the first 6 weeks, the first two weeks are helmets only no contact. You will then have one practice and 8 games. Any team practicing more that the allotted time will result in that team being asked to leave the league and the YMCA will not refund fees.
Captains: Both teams will gather together at the center of the field and the team captain from each team will say a quick prayer, thought for the day, or something inspirational. Coaches please pick your team captains during your week practice time so that they can come prepared to do this before the game starts. This is a way to get the players to learn the YMCA values of respect, faith and responsibility all rolled into one event.
We will be following High School Rules with some exceptions for the 8-man game.
Parents: Parents and fans need to be behind players box UNLESS child injury or helping out with the chains! Any parent or fan that enters the team box will be warned. If problem persist they will be asked to leave the game .
Teams: Teams are to stay in their box throughout the ballgame!
Coaches: Only certified coaches by the YMCA are allowed to participate in coaching positions during the game. These coaches are the names that appear on your team rosters. This helps everyone involved to know what the YMCA program is about and everyone is aware of the rules that the YMCA play by.
Coaches on the field: The 7-8 (if not interfering with the game play may have 2 coaches), and 9-10 and 11-12 year olds will be allowed to have one coach on the field either a defensive or an offensive coach during game time. The defensive and offensive coach must move to the sideline area before the play starts.
13-14 years No coaches on the field at any time.
Field Size: approximately 40 x 80 yds.
Playing Time: Each player is required to play at least 10 plays at anytime during the game! This rule will STRICTLY BE ENFORCED. Any coach not in complience will be suspended for 1 game. . It is helpful to have an assistant coach or parent keep track of plays for every player or every player close to being a 10 play player! A YMCA representative will be monitoring playing time.
Questioning a Referees Call: The referee is in total control of the game and his call stands. You may have 1 questioned call per half if you do not understand what the referee called. These do not carry over to the second half. The only person that can question a call is the coach and they respectfully ask the referee closest to them to have a meeting on the sidelines the referee will talk with the head coach only from that one team about the call. The referee can then fill in the coach from the other side if they feel that it is pertinent to do so. Any other questioning of the calls will result in a 10 yard penalty the first time and then the Outburst Penalty of 20 yds., or ¾ of the way to the goal and a fresh set of downs for the next offense. This is not an image that we want to portray to our players questioning every judgment call. If the referee is continually calling something that is not a rule for our league then call the field representative over and they will discuss it with the referee.
OUTBURST PENALTY: There will be no outbursts from the coaches to the referee or to any of their players or spectators. The YMCA's football program is based on the values of Faith, Caring, Honesty, Respect and Responsibility. Any outburst from a coach, player or parent will result in a penalty against your team of 20 yards or ¾ of the way to the goal line and a fresh set of downs. Outbursts of any kind are unacceptable behavior for the YMCA Youth Sports Program and the referee and YMCA Field Representative is in total control of this call. Any action the referee deems, as an outburst will result in the same penalty as above. If there is a second outburst the coach, player or parent they will be asked to leave the premises and will be suspended for the next game.
UNSPORTMANLIKE PENALTIES: Any player that is asked to leave a game for any reason will not be allowed to play in the following game. The child must come to the next game and watch the game from the sidelines in a respectful manner with no negative comments being made. If a player fails to show up for the game or cannot be respectful then he will sit out the next game as well. If a child is asked to cool off for a few plays and then gets to return to the game this does not carry the same penalty. After 2 penalties by 1 player they are ejected and suspended for the next game.
Field Volunteers: To help in the process and getting the games started right away each team is to have 1 Chain crew and 1 down marker person ready at the beginning of each game. They will meet at the down marker and chains to decide. The down marker person's from each team will talk and decide if each will do a half or one will do the whole game. The chain crew needs to be at the chains and ready to go once the ref has called the captains to the field.
10 yds. From goal: There are no coaches, parents or players allowed within the 10 yd. Line of the goal for either team on either side.
Game Length: Games will consist of four 15-minute running quarters. The clock will stop during the last minute of the game (the clock will stop on incomplete passes, out of bounds, and changes of possession). The clock will restart at the snap of the ball on the next play.
Overtime: Each team will get one possession of the ball starting with the captains and a coin toss. If the game is still tied after both teams have had a possession then the game will end in a tie. You will also get one time out per team. The ball will be placed on the 20 yrd line with 4 downs starting 1st and Goal!
In Between Plays: You will have 30 seconds in the huddle. First offense will result in a warning after that it is a 5 yd penalty for each infraction. This rule will take affect after the first game of the season.
Time Outs: Each team will receive (Two) timeouts per half. Unused timeouts do not carry over to the second half. One full timeout and one half timeout . A full timeout is 2 min the half timeout is 1 min.
Official Time Outs: The referee will determine when to take water breaks. If a team has only enough players to play the game more water breaks may be given for these participants. This will be a 30-45 second water break. The referee will notify you 2 plays before the water break is called so that you are ready with their water. This is not a strategy session only a time for water.
Halftime: Halftimes will be 10 minutes long.
Coaches or team parents: A good idea would be to have hand towels that can be kept in a separate cooler with ice and water so that the players can put them on their heads and around their neck to cool them off. This should be brought out to each game.
KICK OFF'S: Ages 7-8 kickoff beginning and halftime of game... All other ages kick all game!
The kick-off is spotted at the kickoff teams 40 yard line and is always a live ball after 10 yards.
The receiving team must have at least 3 players within 10 yrds of the ball at the kickoff (prevents on-side kicks).
Fair Catch is permitted

If kickoff goes into the endzone, it is brought out to the 20 yrd line for play.
After a Safety, the ball is brought to the 30 yrd line for the free kick/ punt.
If first kick attempt goes out of bounds , the team gets a rekick if second one goes out offense takes the ball at their own 40 yrd line
Punts: There is a 20 yrd minimum for all punted ball unless a return is attempted inside the 20 yrd line. The offense may not leave the line of scrimmage until the ball has been kicked. There are to be no fake punts.no team may punt inside opponents 30 yrd line. Defense may not try and block punts. A touchback will be placed at the 20 yrd line. If a punted ball lands out of bounds inside the 20 yrd line it will automatically be a touchback unless an attempted return and the returner is tackled inside the 20 yrd line.

Also, the player committing the foul must sit out for 5 minutes of game time. If the same player commits a second personal foul, he will sit out for the rest of the game.

When a celebrated science fiction writer takes to space on his first trip to Mars, he stumbles upon Mars' most carefully hidden secrets and threatens the future of the entire planet!
©1952, 1967 Arthur C. Clarke (P)2012 Audible, Inc.
"Good "Golden Age" novel"
Clarke was a favorite of mine growing up so I may be a little prejudiced, but he's a good writer technically and this is a good early novel speculating on Martian colonization. It is not a wiz bang type of novel, but it is filled with excellent ideas and I was surprised to find, revisiting this one after 30+ years how well he imagined and described elements of space flight and visuals. Overall I enjoyed it and though it may fall under the category of a book for teenagers to instill wonder and desire for science and space, I didn't find it as juvenal as Heinlein's books for youngsters. Also you can see just the germ of the idea that would become A Fall of Moondust, and one that was later used in 2010.
I like to listen while I walk in the morning. What I listen to carries into my business day so I look for titles that will bring a good attitude and ideas for my business and concepts that will help me help others.
"I wish there was a second book"
This so far is one of my favorite Clarke books. I really enjoyed the reader and how Clarke developed the characters. I really wish there was a followup book as I'd love to know what happens with the CE and Jimmy???
It has to be Gibson of course as it is through his eyes that you learn about the other characters and his world.
Excellent job reading this book and bringing life to each of the characters.
There are no listener reviews for this title yet.

It's a scorching late-October morning, and the sky is a pristine shade of chlorinated-pool blue. Todd, a shirtless man riding a rusty maroon Schwinn with a white basketful of trash, brakes suddenly. He leans his bike on its side, causing a few crushed cans to fall to the hot concrete. He then places his hands on his hips, polluting a five-foot radius around his sunburned body with a home-brewed musk that reeks of wet dog, cigarettes, and day-old Pollo Tropical.
Todd squints up at two turkey vultures slowly circling the Miami-Dade Civil Courthouse on Flagler Street. "They look like Freddy Krueger with wings," he cries in a mucous-riddled voice. "Those things are disgusting. I've seen them eat garbage! Or maybe they're attracted to all the lawyers. You know, birds of a feather."
In Miami, the leaves never change color. Nor does it snow. About the only signs of seasonal change are the Santa's Enchanted Forest banners on the Palmetto Expressway — and lower FPL bills. So it has come to pass that some civic-minded folks depend on an annual flock of black-feathered, scaly-faced scavengers to indicate the beginning of autumn.
73 W. Flagler St.
Miami, FL 33130
Category: Historic Landmarks
Region: Downtown/Overtown
Some of the more superstitious courthouse denizens believe the buzzards are reincarnated judges who began roosting atop the hall of justice when it was Florida's tallest building and they could see both the Atlantic Ocean and the Everglades.
A quarter-century ago, a Miami-Dade Community College professor named Marilyn Gottlieb-Roberts proposed that the vultures come to Miami from a suburb of Cleveland called Hinckley. "We've been welcoming the birds for many years," she told United Press International. "Our vultures sit on top of the courthouse. They make a beautiful flight across Biscayne Bay for lunch at Virginia Key, the city dump, then come right back to the courthouse."
Bob Hinkle, chief of outdoor education for parks in Cleveland, says it's "a high possibility" the buzzards come to Miami from Hinckley. Then he offers interesting factoids about the mysterious snowbirds: They lack vocal cords and thus can only hiss when they're upset. They vomit when they're threatened. And if they become overheated, they defecate on their legs to cool down. Speaking of feces, you can even eat theirs. The enzymes in their stomachs are like nuclear weaponry to germs. "It's pure," he says.
No shit.
The birds began flocking to northeastern Ohio in 1814, when the Great Hinckley Hunt was first held. Locals slaughtered game mainly to rid the area of varmints such as black bears and mountain lions. Residents took what they could use for food and left the carcasses as a kind of smorgasbord of death. The vultures devoured it and began returning each year on the same date — March 15 — for a new meal. "We like to think that the buzzards bring the spring back home with them," Hinkle says.
In the '80s and '90s, the Miami Herald would write — and usually overwrite — about the birds' arrival in the Magic City each fall around November 1. The "dark-winged angels," reporter Geoffrey Tomb wrote, "are as big as a fixed-wing Cessna, as dark as Dracula's heart." Like a vulture, he would vomit pretty much the same prose year after year.
So I head to the Flagler Street courthouse in search of turkey vultures. I see but two soaring far above the pointed peak. An attorney with thinning hair who goes by the name Patrick S explains new construction might have something to do with the paucity. "Actually, I haven't seen many for a couple of years," he says. "I mean, you'll still see one or two flying overhead or maybe one by a court window once in a blue moon, but there's never a huge flock anymore. This isn't the tallest building in Miami anymore, so I think they've spread out."
Where exactly have they gone?
"I've seen some perched on the Julia Tuttle," he says, referring to the I-195 causeway over Biscayne Bay. "And along Brickell. Actually, I've seen more lately at the justice building."
So off I go to the Richard E. Gerstein Justice Building on NW 12th Street. I arrive at noon to discover that Patrick is right. Circling above the parking lot are about a dozen buzzards.
Across the street, I run into Edgar, a hot-dog vendor in a faded purple polo shirt and blue baseball cap. I ask him if he ever has problems with the vultures.
"The crows bother me," he says with a bright smile. "But not the buzzards — they're not interested in my food. They're more interested in the sacrificed chickens and lambs that all the people practicing Santería and vodou leave around here."
Excuse me?
"For the incarcerated," Edgar says, offering a theory for the buzzards' new digs. "I think it's done by the families of the people who are locked up, but I see it all day long. They pull up in cars, jump out, take some dirt from the courthouse's lawn, and then leave with it. I don't know what they do with the dirt, but if you take a walk around, there's little baggies of corn all over the place too."

Ok, I don't know if I am going to be able to fully describe the scope of what I am doing, but hopefully I can convey some level of it here and hopefully someone will understand. So..
I have these global variables I am defining in my javascript ie:
var abc = '';
var def = '';
var ghi = '';
With these variables I am able to define them later in my script through functions. So they are then reusable by other functions later. That part I have down fine. Now I have an interesting notion that has me stumped where the. The variable is this case is ultimately an object I pass around from function to function, that I can use for various comparisons, and update it as needed. Now Ive reached a point where I need to redefine the whole object at the end of a particular function. But I am merely passing around the object itself so the reference is lost as to which object was the starting point.
So now I am trying to figure out is there a way I can redefine it, say my function is
function monkey(var)
//code to do stuff
//something here after stuff to redefine var as the object it once was referenced
//example ghi = something_from_code_generation_above
where after making calls like that the abc object update, or the def object updates, or the ghi object updates. But keeping it confined within the function and not through a closure like
ghi = monkey(ghi);

The strangest thing happened to me on a recent trip to Florida to visit some old friends.
One evening we were all sitting around outside having some drinks and snacks and talking about our golf that day. After awhile, the mosquitoes came out and forced us to go inside.
The next morning, I woke up with a welt over my right eye where a mosquito had bitten me. No big deal, I thought, and headed out to play golf.
Later that day, the lump over my eye was larger, so I put some antibiotic cream on it and off we went to dinner.

Carrollton Bancorp Reports Second Quarter And Year To Date Net Loss
Carrollton Bancorp, (NASDAQ: CRRB) the parent company of Carrollton Bank, announced a net loss for the second quarter of 2011 of $697,000, compared to a net income of $221,000 for the second quarter of 2010. Net loss to common stockholders for the second quarter of 2011 was $834,000 ($0.32 loss per diluted share) compared to net income available to common stockholders of $86,000 ($0.03 per diluted share) for the second quarter of 2010.
The Company's loss before taxes was $1.2 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 compared to pre-tax income of $301,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2010. For the six month period ended June 30, 2011, the Company's loss before taxes was $968,000 compared to income before taxes of $7,000 for the six month period ended June 30, 2010.
The overall decline in operating results for the 2011 periods compared to the same periods in 2010 is a result of the ongoing losses associated with the loan portfolio and foreclosed real estate. During the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded provisions for loan losses of $1.4 million and $1.5 million compared to $570,000 and $704,000 during the same periods in 2010. Expenses and losses associated with foreclosed real estate were $821,000 and $896,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $71,000 and $145,000 for the same periods in 2010.
The Company reduced non-performing assets (non-accrual loans and foreclosed real estate) by 33.6% from $14.9 million at March 31, 2011 to $9.9 million at June 30, 2011. As a result of this improvement and the Company's continued strategy focused on reducing excess balance sheet liquidity and reducing the cost of our interest-bearing liabilities, the Company's net interest income improved by approximately $84,000 and $194,000 for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2011 as compared to the prior year periods. In addition, the Company increased non-interest income by approximately $213,000 and $888,000 for the three and six month periods as a result of strength in the Company's electronic banking, investment brokerage and mortgage origination businesses.

Here is a simple lesson plan for PBL Critical Thinking skills...
More Related Discussions
2 1214 Views
Hello colleagues,
I am new to this group and just read the current thread about Critical Thinking...and decided to invite you to participate in a Critical Thinking Classroom-Based Project I have done over the years of my learning career...
Enclosed is a simple lesson plan I composed years ago, that I have used successfully across all age groups and subject areas, and involves arts & crafts activities and writing fun.
It is part of a curricular unit that includes other pages and pictures etc. But I figured I would start with something you could easily copy and adapt to your own classroom situation...
to be continued...
Allen Berg
ps: in a certain sort of funny way, this "Introduction" is a Project-Based Learning invitation to participate in a PBL Project, together as teachers here at Edutopia, to create a resource for you all and to simply have some educational fun... together...
The Engineering of Everyday Things: Structure and Function
---The Analysis of a Whole and its Parts.
Lesson Plan by Allen Berg
[Photograph of a ball point pen disassembled: the clear plastic tube of ink, the small inner spring, and the 2 parts of the outer casing with their molded screw connection. ]
I am not incurious;
I like to look at things, care-fully
and understand how they work.
Observation and then description
are important tools of Science.
As you can see from the picture of the pen above,
Things have parts that make up the whole.
In this lesson, you will choose an object
and analyze its structure and function.
1. Name and define the object. (You can check a dictionary.)
The definition of an object is often its purpose.
2. Draw a picture of the object as a whole and as its separate parts.
2a. Take digital photographs of the object as a whole and of its various parts.
2b. Advanced students can use free 3-D software to produce computer-generated 3-Dimensional images. (Google's "Sketch-Up" etc.)
3. Label each part.
Describe the material each part is made of.
4. Explain the function of each part and how it is related to the
whole object.
5. Look close-up and carefully at the object to find the name of the
country where it is made.
6. Evaluate the object:
a. Does it do the job it is supposed to do?
Rate its performance: poor__ ok__ good__ excellent__ etc.
b. What is the object's durability?
How long does it last? Can you repair or replace the parts
or do you just throw it away?
c. What is its cost? Is this a "fair value"?
d. Would you recommend using this object? Why or why not?
e. Can you suggest improvements in its design?
List and explain your suggestions.
Provide a visual image(s) of your improved design.
7. Conclusion:
How does this object compare to similar objects, for use?
[Example of an "improved design": the addition of a soft rubbery fingers grip… Photograph of the "improved" pen]
8. Share your Analysis with other students, family, and friends…
Be proud that you are a Beginning Engineer…

Weather: |
Tides and Whirlpools: |
"We warned at the start of ZetaTalk, in 1995, that unpredictable weather extremes, switching about from drought to deluge, would occur and increase on a lineal basis up until the pole shift. Where this occurred steadily, it has only recently become undeniable. ZetaTalk, and only ZetaTalk, warned of these weather changes, at that early date. Our early warnings spoke to the issue of global heating from the core outward, hardly Global Warming, a surface or atmospheric issue, but caused by consternation in the core. Affected by the approach of Planet X, which was by then starting to zoom rapidly toward the inner solar system for its periodic passage, the core was churning, melting the permafrost and glaciers and riling up volcanoes. When the passage did not occur as expected in 2003 because Planet X had stalled in the inner solar system, we explained the increasing weather irregularities in the context of the global wobble that had ensued - weather wobbles where the Earth is suddenly forced under air masses, churning them. This evolved by 2005 into a looping jet stream, loops breaking away and turning like a tornado to affect the air masses underneath. Meanwhile, on Planet Earth, droughts had become more intractable and deluges positively frightening, temperature swings bringing snow in summer in the tropics and searing heat in Artic regions, with the violence of storms increasing in number and ferocity."
From the ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for February 4, 2012:
The wobble seems to have changed, as the temperature in Europe suddenly plunged after being like an early Spring, Alaska has its coldest temps ever while the US and much of Canada is having an extremely mild winter. India went from fatal cold spell to balmy again. Has the Earth changed position vs a vs Planet X to cause this? [and from another] Bitter cold records broken in Alaska - all time coldest record nearly broken, but Murphy's Law intervenes [Jan 30] http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/01/30/bitter-cold-records-broken-in-alaska Jim River, AK closed in on the all time record coldest temperature of -80°F set in 1971, which is not only the Alaska all-time record, but the record for the entire United States. Unfortunately, it seems the battery died in the weather station just at the critical moment. While the continental USA has a mild winter and has set a number of high temperature records in the last week and pundits ponder whether they will be blaming the dreaded "global warming" for those temperatures, Alaska and Canada have been suffering through some of the coldest temperatures on record during the last week.
There has been no change in the wobble pattern, the wobble has merely become more severe. Nancy noted a Figure 8 format when the Earth wobble first became noticeable, in early 2005, after Planet X moved into the inner solar system at the end of 2003. The Figure 8 shifted along to the east a bit on the globe between 2005 and 2009, (the last time Nancy took its measure) as Planet X came closer to the Earth, encountering the magnetic N Pole with a violent push earlier in the day. But the pattern of the Figure 8 remained essentially the same. So what changed recently that the weather patterns became noticeably different in late January, 2012?
The N Pole is pushed away when it comes over the horizon, when the noon Sun is centered over the Pacific. This regularly puts Alaska under colder air, with less sunlight, and thus the historically low temps there this January, 2012 as the wobble has gotten stronger. But by the time the Sun is positioned over India, the N Pole has swung during the Figure 8 so the globe tilts, and this tilt is visible in the weather maps from Asia. The tilt has forced the globe under the hot air closer to the Equator, warming the land along a discernable tilt demarcation line.
The next loop of the Figure 8 swings the globe so that the N Pole moves in the other direction, putting the globe again at a tilt but this time in the other direction. This tilt is discernable in weather maps of Europe, again along a diagonal line. Depending upon air pressure and temperature differences, the weather on either side of this diagonal line may be suddenly warm or suddenly cold. The tilt and diagonal line lingers to affect much of the US and Canada, but the Figure 8 changes at this point to be an up and down motion, pulling the geographic N Pole south so the US is experiencing a warmer than expected winter under a stronger Sun. Then the cycle repeats, with the magnetic N Pole of Earth pushed violently away again as the Sun is positioned over the Pacific.
From the ZetaTalk Chat Q&A for April 6, 2013:
Would the Zetas be able to let us know what is causing the early break-up of the Arctic Ice, the ice seems to have taken on a swirling pattern at the same time, would this be wobble related? [and from another] http://www.vancouversun.com/news/national/Canada+Arctic+cracks+spec... The ice in Canada's western Arctic ripped open in a massive "fracturing event" this spring that spread like a wave across 1,000 kilometres of the Beaufort Sea. Huge leads of water – some more than 500 kilometres long and as much as 70 kilometres across – opened up from Alaska to Canada's Arctic islands as the massive ice sheet cracked as it was pushed around by strong winds and currents. It took just seven days for the fractures to progress across the entire area from west to east. [and from another] http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/IOTD/view.php?id=80752&src=iot... A high-pressure weather system was parked over the region, producing warmer temperatures and winds that flowed in a southwesterly direction. That fueled the Beaufort Gyre, a wind-driven ocean current that flows clockwise. The gyre was the key force pulling pieces of ice west past Point Barrow, the northern nub of Alaska that protrudes into the Beaufort Sea.
The Figure 8 formed by the N Pole during the daily Earth wobble has shifted somewhat to the East, due to Planet X positioned more to the right of the Earth during its approach. This was anticipated, and well described in ZetaTalk, the Earth crowding to the left in the cup to escape the approach of Planet X, so the angle between these two planets would change slightly. This shift of the Figure 8 to the East is due to the push against the Earth's magnetic N Pole occurring sooner each day than prior. Thus instead of occurring when the Sun is high over the Pacific, over New Zealand, it is now occurring when the Sun is high over Alaska. All the wobble points have shifted eastward accordingly.
This has brought a lingering Winter to the western US, and a changed sloshing pattern to the Arctic waters. Instead of Pacific waters being pushed through the Bering Straits into the Arctic when the polar push occurs, the wobble is swinging the Arctic to the right, and then later to the left, creating a circular motion in the waters trapped in the Arctic. Since the Earth rotates counterclockwise, the motion also takes this path. This is yet another piece of evidence that the establishment is hard pressed to explain. They are attempting to ascribe this to high pressure and wind, all of which are not new to the Arctic, but this circular early breakup of ice in the Arctic is new.
Tornado Touches Down Near Stockton, California -
"SAN JOAQUIN COUNTY, CA - A tornado touched down in San Joaquin County on Wednesday after a severe thunderstorm moved into the area.
The National Weather Service confirmed that a tornado touched down southwest of Stockton on West Howard Road sometime between 12:30 p.m. and 1:00 p.m.
The tornado damaged a number of barns and downed power lines along Howard Road between Stark Road and South Roberts Road, San Joaquin County sheriff's Deputy Les Garcia said.
Calls into the sheriff's department reported that the tornado touched down near Stark Road and headed southeast over Howard Road.
Garcia said a number of items and pieces of structure were thrown around by the tornado, which damaged vehicles in the area.
There were several sightings of funnel clouds also in French Camp, Stockton, Lathrop and Tracy.
The storm also produced large hail, which was reported from as far south as Stockton and as far north as Natomas."
Tornadoes near Stockton, CA since 1950:
Here's another hail storm - an actual river of hail in Texas today (April 11). This I have never seen or heard of.
Hail ravages US 287, shuts down highway
Extreme weather, including heavy hail and flooding, has paralyzed parts of the Panhandle, shutting down highways.
According to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), Highway 136 at Fritch is closed in Hutchinson County because of flooding.
Highway 287, which was previously at a complete standstill, has resumed traffic. TxDOT said traffic is moving on the northbound lanes and the southbound lanes will likely remain closed through the night. The road must first be cleared and then damage assessed.
Three to four feet of hail was reported near the Canadian River. Watch the video above from Storm Search 7 Storm Chaser Doug Blach.
The Potter County Sheriff's Office confirmed motor vehicles being stuck in the ice and rain.
Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS) reported extremely low visibilities in the area at the time of the storm. The main part of the heavy hail was reported four miles north of the Canadian River near the Fain Plant.
Golf Ball-Sized Hailstones Kill Three People
The giant pieces of ice pelted several rural areas in east China's Jiangxi province overnight and on Wednesday morning, resulting in the deaths of three people, the Xinhua news agency said.
The hailstones were said to be as large as 3.5cm in diameter and weighed 18g on average.
The storms forced the evacuation of more than 700 people, destroyed about 2,700 hectares of crops and damaged more than 900 houses, a spokesman with the Jiangxi provincial department of civil affairs said.
First quarter of 2012 also warmest on record; early March tornado outbreak is year's first "billion dollar disaster"
Record and near-record breaking temperatures dominated the eastern two-thirds of the nation and contributed to the

A wonderful book
Riley's Gift - A review by Cynthia DeVaughn This is an excellently written story. You are on the edge of your seat reading the whole time. You love, hate, laugh and cry through out the whole book. The characters are very endearing some bring humor and others bring the urge to slap them. Even at the end I wanted to know more but was satisfied. Riley is witty and genuinely honest with her self even though she isn't always honest with everyone else. I love to read but haven't been able to read alot lately and this book quenched that desire to every extent. It is a love story, a mystery, and a drama It even has a good helping of humor intertwined in it. I would suggest everyone that just loves a good story to get this book, you won't regret it. It is unmistakeably a 5 star book.

The medium bore Bach trumpets allow for a lighter sound with less effort. The .453" bore makes playing a lot easier yet the #37 bell still gives that great, solid Bach sound.
Please Note: All Bach trumpets and cornets come with 1st valve slide hook, 3rd valve slide ring, case, and mouthpiece, unless otherwise specified.

Comments about Bach 180SM Stradivarius Series Bb Trumpet:
I just bought this trumpet a couple of months ago and i gotta say it is fantstic. I went with the 37 inch bell for more control. I would strongly recomend getting the 37 inch bell. But this is a FANTASTIC instrument!
