Boston, MA (SportsNetwork.com) - Buffalo Sabres goaltender Matt Hackett left the ice on a stretcher during the third period of Saturday's 4-1 loss against the Boston Bruins.
Boston's Torey Krug was charging toward the net and was checked into the crease before falling onto the outstretched right leg of the goaltender with 11:35 remaining in the contest.
Hackett remained on the ice and was immobilized before being lifted onto a stretcher and carted into the locker room.
The Sabres said after the game that Hackett never left the arena and was set to return to Buffalo with the team, although the initial prognosis was not a positive one.
"It doesn't look good right now," said Sabres coach Ted Nolan. "We'll wrap him up as best we can, get him back home, have our doctors look at him."
Connor Knapp made his NHL debut, finishing the game with six saves.
"All the guys feel pretty terrible about something like that happening, especially with everything that?s happened already," Knapp said.
Four other Sabres were hurt during the contest. Nolan said defenseman Christian Ehrhoff suffered a mild concussion, while forwards Chris Stewart, Brian Flynn and Matt D'Agostini all sustained lower-body injuries.
None are expected to play Sunday in the season finale against the New York Islanders.

Front Brake Rotor Wear Can Cause Pulsations
Front brake rotors can wear causing a pulsation felt in the brake pedal. Our technicians tell us this condition is best corrected by replacement of the front rotors and brake pads.
High Pressure Power Steering Hose Can Leak Fluid
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
Wear In Outer Tie Rod Ends Can Cause Steering Problems
The outer tie rod ends on the steering linkage may wear causing excessive free play in the steering and uneven tire wear. If the worn tie rod ends are replaced, the wheel alignment should be checked and adjusted as necessary.
Transmission Fluid Leak From Cooler Line
The rubber section of an automatic transmission cooler line may develop a fluid leak . In some cases the leaking section of hose can be replaced. In others, the complete cooler line must be replaced to correct this concern.
ABS light due to brake lamp failure
If the ABS light on the instrument panel illuminates, our technicians recommend checking the brake lamps first. It could indicate that a brake light is not working or has burned out.
Steering rack can fail
The steering rack may fail causing the steering to become hard to turn.
The Engine May Stall After Extended Freeway Driving
The torque converter clutch can stick "on" after extended freeway driving causing the engine to stall when coming to a stop. Our technicians tell us when this occurs, the engine usually will restart and stall when put into gear. After allowing about twenty minutes for the engine and transmission to cool down, the engine will start and the transmission will operate normally. Replacing the torque converter clutch solenoid, transmission filter, and fluid will generally correct this issue.
Poor Ride/Handling Due to Worn Suspension Struts
The front struts may show signs of wear, or be excessively bouncy ride at freeway speeds. This may begin to occur at around 75,000 miles.

Fists of Fu
UPDATE: This game has been shutdown and is no longer available
Fists of Fu Overview
Fists of Fu is a 2D action MMORPG with '2.5D' graphics. It offers a light-hearted story which gives players just enough of an excuse to beat up everything that they encounter. For the most part, Fists of Fu plays much like Dragonica Online, as the game has many instanced dungeons. Aside from its in depth PvE elements, Fists of Fu has multiple competitive lobby based PvP modes that support up to eight players at a time. There are thousands of items to collect, over 60 armor sets available, and plenty of ranks & achievements to earn.
The game's three starting classes are:
Fighter – Fighters have the most hit points and armor in the game, but have limited offensive capabilities from a distance.
Archer – They focus on dealing damage to their opponents from a distance.
Mage – Like in most MMORPGs, Mages have powerful ranged attacks but significantly less armor and hitpoints than the other two classes.
Fists of Fu Screenshots
Fists of Fu Featured Video
Fists of Fu Review
By, Omer Altay
Fists of Fu is a side-scroller MMORPG with anime style graphics that mixes a fantasy themed persistent world with instanced dungeon stages. The game resembles Dragonica Online in many respects, but one key difference is that movement is limited to two dimensions. The character and monster models are still rendered in 3D which helps give the game a modern look, but the art style is a bit lighthearted and humorous.
Three Ways to Fu
Fists of Fu is published by Outspark, the same company behind the hit game Fiesta Online. The beta test period for the game started on June 23rd and introduced a new launcher called O+ which aims to simplifying the process of downloading and patching Fists of Fu as well as all Outspark games. At around 500 MB, the Fists of Fu client download is manageable and the game plays well on a wide range of computer hardware. After installation and patching, players will find character creation is a bit lacking, as the game has absolutely no appearance customization. This leads to players looking virtually identical to other characters in game, just like they do in Lunia. There are three classes to chose from, each available in male or female form. Fu and Ling are the Magicians, Hu and Xao are Archers, and Shen and Wu are Fighters. Each class uses its own weapon type and has two advanced class options available for the late game. It's disappointing to see so few playable classes and job advancements in the game, especially considering other side scrolling MMORPGs like Dragonica Online and MapleStory have much more variety in this department. MapleStory has some 15+ playable classes while Dragonica has four starting classes and many more job advancements.
Action Packed Gameplay
The gameplay in Fists of Fu is remarkably similar to Dragonica Online and other action games. Players don't simply "point and click". Every action in the game including movement, attacking and using skills requires players to actively press buttons. Like other action MMORPGs, much of Fists of Fu can be played entirely with the keyboard. As a fan of action MMORPGs in general, I have to say the core gameplay and combat mechanics in Fists of Fu are fun, but they aren't very original. In fact, it's safe to say much of the interface and gameplay in Fists of Fu is copied directly from Dragonica Online, an action MMORPG released back in 2009. Players can battle against enemies in Fists of Fu through instanced dungeons located outside of town. Keep in mind, unlike Dragonica, which has a persistent world outside of Towns, Fists of Fu only has only instanced dungeons. There are no enemies to kill outside of these dungeons, so in a way the game is similar to Lunia.
Each instanced dungeon can be completed under three difficulty settings – Beginner, Expert and Hardcore. The higher difficulty dungeons yield better rewards but are significantly harder. Players can chose to venture alone into these instanced dungeons or party up with others. The game actually has a really good "party finding" system which allows players to find people easily find others working on the same quests / dungeons. In order to clear a dungeon players need to defeat the boss in the final room. Each dungeon has its own unique boss, which adds some depth and difficulty to the game. Unfortunately much of the gameplay in Fists of Fu is incredibly linear. Players need to complete the first few dungeons numerous times before being able to advance to the more difficult ones. In fact, each new instanced dungeon needs to be unlocked before being able to attempt it. Players unlock new dungeons by completing older ones, much like the progression system in Lunia. The first few dungeons are incredibly easy and short, but as players progress in the game, the later dungeons are much more difficult and longer.
Leveling UP and Combat
The experience rate is fairly slow in Fists of Fu, but each new level yields new skill points and an increase in stats (Players don't get to distribute stat points manually). Each class in the game only has a handful of skills, so there really isn't too many different ways to "build" your character. For the most all every mage will play like every other major and warrior will play like every other warrior and so on. This lack of distinction amongst characters is definitely a major drawback. The combat is probably the most fun aspect of Fists of Fu, though it does get repetitive. Combat actually takes skill, so players need to effectively dodge attacks and form combos if they want to be as effective as possible. Players can hit F10 to see all available combo attacks for their characters, but I found myself spamming the basic attack hotkey more than anything else. Skills have to be used sparingly, as they use up a lot of MP, so players won't be able to "spam" their skills in combat. The actual skill animations themselves look quite nice.
Non-Combat Stuff
Aside from grinding and questing in instanced dungeons, Players in Fists of Fu can craft, enchant and upgrade items at the blacksmith. Players can also sell their items to other players by setting up a personal shop in the game's Plaza. Yes, like Rose Online, Seal Online and numerous other games, Fists of Fu uses a personal shop system instead of an auction house, which makes commerce within the game a bit annoying. The game's item crafting system isn't exactly too deep and its more like item crafting in MapleStory than anything else, because there's no actual crafting skill. Instead, players simply bring certain items as well as a fee to the blacksmith in town, and he just crafts the item for you. Players can use strengthening stones to upgrade their equipment as well as gems to socket into their gears to enhance them. One good thing about the enchanting system in Fists of Fu is that players can remove gems from socketed items, so players don't need worry about "ruining" their equipment with low tier gems. Keep in mind though, removed gems don't return to your inventory, they get destroyed.
All in all, there's a decent amount of things to do outside of the core PvE elements. PvP especially is worth checking out.
Action Packed PvP!
Aside from grinding quests and dungeons, Fists of Fu offers a compelling PvP system that's well worth checking out. Players can enter the lobby-based PvP area after reaching level 3. Even though this area of the game is lobby-based, where players can host or join rooms, it works really well. The game currently has three PvP game modes, Team Competition, Team Deathmatch and Survival with up to 8 players in each game. Unlike PvP in most MMORPGs, players can begin enjoying the PvP in Fists of Fu right away. Whether you're level 5 or level 40, the game will automatically equalize characters so they largely the same stats. Higher level players who enter the PvP arena will have access to more skills though, as even though the game equalizes stats, it doesn't give lower level players skill that they haven't unlocked yet. Each match does have a leaderboard, but unfortunately kills and death don't really mean anything, as everyone just kill steals each other. Then again, this happens in most games, but it's especially true for Fists of Fu, as players can take a long time to kill and the game awards the kill to whoever got the last hit. With 8 players in a single game, PvP can be quite chaotic, but even so it's fun and a good distraction from grinding. Players earn PKPoints for performing well in matches which can be exchanged for Rank badges as well as other items in the PvP item store.
Final Verdict – Good
Fists of Fu is a fun action packed 2D MMORPG which although fun doesn't bring anything new to the genre. Unfortunately, there are better action games out there. Namely Dragonica Online, which Fists of Fu copied. Even with its faults, those looking for a new action game to try should give Fists of Fu a chance.

if your g620 does not support vt-x then it is disabled in the bios. see
compared to i3 you dont have got ht and no quick sync (hardware h264 encoder). i3 vs. i5 means no aes commands thats similar to standard phenom vs. fx cpus, those fx cpus have got aes instructions. i5/i7 feature also a turbo mode which simpler cpus lack. usually i5 is not only dual (but there are some dual) but quad. i7 is usually quad + ht. the mobile variants are however dual without a Q in the name. somehow a bit confusing if you never looked at intel specs. for amd you just need to choose fx series when you want aes.
UPD: One good post: http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...1/#post4066699
There are several confirmations that Asus boards work.
Also, I don´t understand why MB has to support ECC?.. Memory controller is in CPU, whats left are physicall lanes and DIMM sockets.
Buffered modules have buffer that ease the load on the controller and hence can allow you to install more modules. I have no idea, if AMD MB supports them, unbuffered ecc should work.
Maybe soon i will upgrade to ECC ram and answer that for you.
Also, I have athlon ii x4 630. Four cores at 2.8 Ghz.
It has WRONG voltage of 1.4v from factory - since it is PHENOM voltage and ATHLON does not have L3 cache.
Because AMD wanted to conceal some of PHENOMs as ATHLONs by simply disabling the L3, they left 1.4v as default, which is ultra stupid.
Athlon II x4 runs at 1.2v perfectly stable.
At 1.2v and with Scythe big schuriken, it gets 40C hot and unhearable in operation.

Apologies to the original poster for hijacking his thread. I hope he finds the ECC discussion useful since it clearly shows AMD has the advantage there, in case he is into ECC at all. I, for one, will always build my servers with ECC in the future + use Btrfs in mirror configuration. The data is all that matters. Please spare me the comments about how Btrfs is not ready for production. By the time I have enough money for a new server it will be
I may be able to help you in the decision I hope. I have two systems that have some resemblance to what you're looking for.
One of those system is equipped with Athlon II X4 630, which basically has the same performance as the cpu part of A8-3800, installed on a 785G motherboard with 8GB ram and I'm using the HD4200 IGP. The other system is built around a Pentium G840 on a H61 motherboard and 4GB ram. Both of them are running Ubuntu 11.10. The Pentium is much more pleasant to work with mainly due to the better desktop experience provided by the GPU. For some reason (probably driver related) the composited desktop experience on the AMD system is terrible although the GPU is more than capable of handling it (I have to use Unity 2D to have a usable system). This is with both the open source and catalyst drivers. On proper fullscreen 3D applications the performance is as expected.
The Pentium is a totally different thing, with the desktop responding very smoothly and with very low latency. In terms of CPU power I don't really notice a difference because most applications are not well threaded enough. Even if they were it would only matter for certain workloads like 3D rendering. The problem here is not the CPU at all, but the GPU (and associated drivers).
For the type of workload you're describing, the Pentium will probably be the best choice. On top of the better experience you'll also be using open source graphics drivers so that should please the open source fanatics. Or not...
PS: The GPU on Llano is much more powerful than the HD4200 of my system, so the experience might be a bit better.

I am interested in a full load noise "test".
Could you please tell me if my "ready made" you mean a known branded PC (HP, Dell etc?)
@devplus: Thanks, your response is really helpful. If you imagine that on my PC the main problem is the desktop experience, (since the VM is a completely different thing), I think you helped me the most, as well as aceman.

Well, don't go for branded PC. It's more expensive.
Go for AMD X4 640 or G620. X4 if you want to maximize the core work (like VM, rip DVD, transcode, render, etc). Else, G620.
Agree with Devius. the open source radeon still no match for intel open source driver, for now. If you've spare money and go X4 630 route, take an cheap nvidia VGA card and you'll good to go.
Any of you with Athlon IIs, is there much lag in p-state switching? (i.e. takes a noticeable amount of time for the cores to change clock speed in response to a computational load)
Intel CPUs since Core 2 Duo I believe have very minimal latency in changing p-states, as do AMD CPUs since the original Phenom. The old Athlons up to the 65nm X2s took about 200ms to clock up in response to a load, which was noticeable in general usage. That *may* explain the difference between an Athlon II X4 and a Sandy Bridge Pentium on the desktop..

Options menu Usability
A menu is a window that presents a list of commands to the user. A menu is arranged into lines, known as menu items, each of which contains a text label. Menu provides a convenient way to navigate between different forms and views in an application. When a user selects a menu item, the command handler is invoked which handles the command pressed. Option menu is an efficient way to allow user to perform some actions, especially in the case of soft key based non touch devices.
The Options menu is a menu list displayed in a pop-up window. It is activated by pressing the Options soft key. (Options are the default value of the left soft key.)
Logical grouping of the menu items should be used so that the users can recongnize them easily.
The main tasks should be available quickly
Users should be able to locate the main task easily.
The menu structure should not be too deep or too shallow.
Menu should not cover whole screen
Ideally it should not cover more than 70% screen of the application. The maximum size is approximately the size of the standard main pane.
|Good option menu example
Dim background content
The content on the screen outside the menu pop-up should be dimmed, as otherwise they would hamper the usability of the menu, as the user's attention might be diverted.

Use icons on the menu only if it is very important or provides some useful information about the state of the application/menu etc, for instance radio buttons/checkboxes etc.
Use short and meaningful/understandable text
Where possible use the conventionally known/used words to denote a menu option command text. Do not use texts which are either too technical or too tough to understand for the end user. Also make sure that the command does what the user expects it to do, do not surprise the user.
The text on the option menu should be short and they should never be truncated or ending with ellipsis. While doing usability testing it is imperative to test this aspect on various screen resolutions and modes.
Provide scrollbar
The first choice should be to place only as many options on the menu as can be displayed at one time, without having to have a scrollbar for navigating up/down. In case it is not possible to avoid having more options than it is possible to display in one shot, a scrollbar should be provided to the user, that ways they would know there is some more menu option which is not visible right now.
Since the space available for showing the menu is limited it makes good usability sense to hide the items from the menu which are not relevant for a given state of the application. For example no need to show delete menu item if list does not contain any item, or provide option to download content when there is no connectivity etc.
The navigations keys, Left Soft Key (LSK)/Right Soft Key (RSK) and Centre Soft Key (CSK) should follow the conventions, whereby the LSK should select the currently focused command; RSK should cancel the option menu and return the user to the view. The CSK should correspond to Select unless it is customized to bring up a context sensitive/drop down menu.
Context-sensitive menus are secondary menus that are typically launched by pressing the Selection key (as opposed to the primary Options menu accessed via the left soft key). These menus are sensitive to the currently displayed view, and furthermore can be sensitive to the internal state of that view.
Use mark able menu options like radio button/checkboxes only in the sub-menu, especially if they are more like custom setting choices. For instance if you are giving the user choice to select a specific number of the 3 pre-defined numbers, you might want to show an indication against the number chosen. This way the user can know what is currently selected/chosen.
For details of drop down/context sensitive menu, check:-
How to display drop down/fly out menu
Provide a looping mechanism to allow accessing the top and bottom commands on the menu, this would save the user the time/effort to scroll up/down to get to the corresponding menu options.
Provide About/Help options
It is very important to provide the user a way to access the context sensitive through the application. The help would assist the user in making full use of the functionalities. User should also be able to know about the application, which should be accessible using the about option. More details can be had from Things to remember when writing Help text or Manuals. If the application has multi views, help should be possibly available on all view option menus, while about should be available only on the main view option menu.
An application without help/about options places a serious usability limitation.
Sub-Menu guidelines
Minimize items
Minimize the number of items in the sub-menu; ideally speaking the sub-menu should always have lesser items than the main menu.
The deeper the navigational hierarchy, the more cumbersome it is from a user's perspective to be able to use them. Avoid using sub-menus for sub-menus, in those cases it would be more relevant to see how the menus can be re-arranged, or possibly breaking down the functionalities into multiple views with single level menu layout.

Hill, 'Toppers vault past Campbell
Saturday, February 2, 2013
SOMERSWORTH — Thirty points would have been a tall order for anyone, but with the week Rachel Hill was having, it certainly seemed possible.
The game itself was never in doubt, as Somersworth jumped out to an early lead and never looked back. The Hilltoppers led 21-11 after the first quarter and 37-23 at halftime. Kylee Julia and Hannah Neild led Campbell (10-5) with 19 and 16 points, respectively.
The Hilltoppers improved to 11-3 and have won five of their last six.
"We knew it was going to be a tough game," Somersworth coach Jeff Francoeur said. "I thought it was going to be closer and it very well could have been. We just executed very well. There were a few times when we could've gotten rattled and let them back in the game, and it didn't happen."
The Hilltoppers avenged a 54-51 loss to the Cougars in Litchfield on Dec. 21.
"This was so big, especially after losing to them," said Somersworth junior forward Brianna Smith. "It feels really good to come back. We pushed the ball right up the court and executed really well."
Smith scored 15 for Somersworth (11-3), including nine in the first quarter, and Miranda Gagnon scored 10. "They were hitting their open shots," Campbell coach Bobby Allan said. "You have to give them credit. They knew what we were going to throw at them. They made their adjustments, and we didn't hit our shots when we needed to."
Campbell began to foul, and Hill went to the line twice and hit all four shots, giving her 29 with 54.7 seconds left. On the Hilltoppers' next trip down the floor, Allie Francoeur was fouled and she hit both shots with 31.7 seconds to play.
Somersworth, 69-52

Rear Transmission Mounts Commonly Fail
Head light door actuators may fai
The head light door actuators may fail causing the head lights to become stuck in the raised or lowered position.
Dim Tail or Brake Lights Due to Faulty Light Sockets
The tail or brake lights may be dim due to a poor ground connection inside the light socket. Failed light sockets will require replacement.
Check Engine Light With Code P1870
The transmission may develop a harsh 1-2 shift and/or illumination of the Check Engine Light with code P1870 stored. This can be caused by wear of the bore for the TCC isolator and regulator valves in the valve body. This condition does not commonly occur until the transmission reaches normal operating temperature. If the valve body is worn, replacement will be necessary to correct this concern.
Check Engine Light Due to Restricted Secondary Air Injection Check Valve
One or both secondary air injection check valves may become restricted causing poor air flow resulting in illumination of the Check Engine Light. It is often recommend to replace both check valves even if a fault code is set for only one bank of cylinders. Replacing only one valve may result in a return trip to the repair shop.
Hood and Rear Hatch Supports May Fail
The hood and rear hatch supports may fail causing the hood or hatch fall back down after being raised to the open position. Replacement of failed supports is recommended.
T-Top Models Are Prone to Water Leaks
The t-top models are prone to water leaks from the t-tops weather strip seals. Our technicians tell us that replacing the all of the t-top related weather strips will commonly correct most leaks. Care should be taken when removing and installing the t-tops in order to avoid damage to the weather strips.
Coolant Leak & Engine Overheating
A coolant leak may develop from the water pump. The engine may overheat as a result of the coolant loss. A leaking water pump should be replaced.
Intake Manifold Gasket May Leak Engine Oil
The intake manifold gasket may develop external engine oil leak. The manifold gasket will need to be replaced to correct this issue.
The Fuel Pump May Fail Causing the Engine to Stall or Crank Over But Not Start
The fuel pump may fail causing the engine to stall and not restart. Our technicians recommend replacing the fuel filter every 30,000 miles to help prevent undue strain on the fuel pump.
Power Window Not Working Due to Window Motor
A door window may move slowly or stop in mid travel due to a failing power window motor. The affected window may start working again after the motor cools off. Replacing the faulty window motor will commonly correct this concern.
Rear hatch won't close due to trunk pull down switch failure
Roller on window guide may break
The roller on the window guide attached to the bottom of the window glass may break off and cause the window to come off track.

November 07th, 1969
In a lively session with Hendrix on guitar and Buddy Miles on drums, the two musicians run through a number of takes of "Izabella" plus lay the foundations for "Room Full Of Mirrors." As John McDermott explains in Jimi Hendrix: Sessions, "Shortly after reel two began, technical problems slowed the pair's progress. Hendrix, in particular, was bothered by the volume and general quality of the recording being supplied to his headphones. [Engineers] Jack Adams and Dave Ragno feverishly attempted to remedy the situation, but when recording resumed, Jimi's amplifier started to malfunction, causing his guitar sound to drop out intermittently. This again caused a scramble in the control room. To help salvage the session, engineer Tony Bongiovi was sent for, and, thought he was not listed on the tape box, his distinctive voice can be plainly heard from this point forward."
As the session regrouped and recordings continued, a series of takes of "Room Full Of Mirrors" was laid to tape as was a couple of interesting takes of "Shame, Shame, Shame" (a song which eluded to the strained relationship with his step-brother Leon), plus a gritty rendition of "Ezy Ryder."
It was during these sessions that Alan Douglas deepened his involvement with Hendrix. Although his exact role in the sessions of the 7th is unknown, the tape marked simply marked as being for client, Douglas Records. As Stefan Bright and Douglas increased their control and influence over Hendrix in the studio, their exact involvement and reason for being there seemed puzzling. Tom Erdelyi (second engineer for several Record Plant sessions) explained the changes in the studio in McDermott's Jimi Hendrix: Sessions. "Douglas and Bright just sort of came in and took over. They were running the show. I was surprised, because I was a fan of the Jimi Hendrix Experience, and no one seemed to understand what Jimi was trying to accomplish. Jimi was such a perfectionist. It seemed as if he was just taking his time, because no tracks were being completed. We thought that Douglas was being patient.
"I don't know whether they had specific titles or not," continues Erdelyi. "But Stefan Bridge was supposed to be the producer and Alan Douglas the executive producer. There were times when just Stefan Bright was there, but Jimi just played what he wanted, and those guys made comments from the control room."

Tried posting pics from my gallery but it wont work from my cell phone.
Once weather breaks I want to roof this tarped section of my roof. Right now there are a couple square plastic vents roofed in and that's it. It was an inlaw setup but I'm going to make it one large master bed.so the interior will get gutted , some beams installed for load bearing walls , and looking into weather the current stick built roof needs to be beefed up.I believe its all 2x4. The living space is aprox 22'x22' . Give or take a foot. The roof has a single layer of shingles over some 1x4 tounge and groove board.
My first question is about venting. There is no soffit so a ridgevent would be worthless? What are my options? Can I build an extension to the roof to come out another foot , at a different angle and create a soffit and then cut a ridge vent? That might also help keep snow and rain away from the house?What are my options?
My second question is about the type of roof I want to install. I was thinking about going with a metal roof. I know the materials will cost more , but I'm thinking it will be a lot easier for me and I could do it with a friend a lot quicker.looking around online I see a lot of aluminum roofs with exposed screws and 30guage metal. They seem kinda cheesy . I'm told expansion and contraction can pull the screws around and the rubbers on the screws can fail over time.
I'm a sheetmetal worker by trade , mainly HVAC , but years back I worked for an archetectual company and installed a few standing seam roofs where the clips and screws are concealed. So then I'm thinking even a step further and why don't I just make my own panels and gutters out of a 26 guage stainless steel. I have acess to breaks and shears and such. I've soldered stainless before , I know that's a pain , one job was a chemical plant and all roof components had to be stainless.I really haven't done a price check yet to see the cost differance between a prefab and me just buying my own sheets but I'm guessing its got to be significant. Am I crazy here?
Stainless sounds expensive, but let's leave that for now and look at the rest of the problems. If you had a new roof framed today, the rafters would be 2x10s with 2x4 straping above that to allow for venting above the insulation. The heel cut is what we measure from the top of the wall on the outside to the underside of the sheeting so a 2x10 rafter with a seat cut to sit on a 2x4 wall with a 2x4 stapping would have a heal cut of about 7.5 inches, engineered trusses are built with a simular heel cut.
If your 2x4 rafters have a seat cut to sit on the wall you will have a heel cut from 0 to 3.5 inches so extending the tails on the rafter will not give you enough space above the wall for insulation and air flow.
Normally we would say to add material to the bottom of the rafters to allow for more insulation but even with that you could still have a problem with ice dams if you are in a cold zone.
I do want to see the photos both inside and outside of the house and welcome to the site.
Hey neal thx for the response . I'm the same guy you were advising in the introduction thread . I got on a laptop today and fixed the pics . I figure a 4x10 sheet of 26ga SS costs me about 100$ . The metal cost would be between 2-3K for that job including gutters and all . Sometimes I get carried away and maybe im on overkill mode?
Like you said , leaving that aside for now , you can see in the pics I have no soffit . Ice dams are all around my house , the current gutters are worthless even in summer . Right now I have a foot of snow all over the roof and iceickels from the roof to the ground (I do break what I can) .
The ceiling in this space is only 7'5" . Maybe I'm better off just extending the walls and installing trusses? I have a ton of work though and I
hate to devote to much money to this small area of the house .
I do have short videos too , is there a way to post those , or maybe just a youtube link? I cant get into the attic without opening up from the inside and its in the teens and singles digits this time of year so those pics will have to wait a bit . Right now that area is on a hydronic baseboard zone I been keeping at 45F since Im on oil and its costing me a fortune . (Yes my cheap butt sleeps in there , and no , my wife doesn't)
This is probabaly a bad interpretation of what I was thinking ....but could I cut triangle framing and add it to the bottom of my roof like in the picture above , at the back right of the structure? That would give me an overhang/soffit , with a cavity for air to travel up to a ridge vent?
Yes that would work, we have also added swoops on the edge of the roof for the same effect but the curved fasia on the end is a ****. You already have a prety low slope so those fixes may be questionable. Your quicker fix might be just to add 2x8 rafter right on top of the old roof, 6 inches of insulation before new sheeting. A level cut on the bottom to meet a 2x4 liner and you will have maybe 8 or 10 inches for vented soffet that would still be above window height and a ridge vent on the top.
So basically that would almost be building a New roof over the existing? Would i have to worry about the added weight? I gotta snap some pics and beg your advise as to weather the existing framing is sufficient , in my own unexperienced opinion , I think its not so good.
At that point might i be better off cutting the whole roof right off and ordering trusses? Then I can raise the ceiling a couple feet too ? I want to be cheap , but I want it to be right. An even balance I suppose. I know the main house is gonna cost me a bit. As long as I'm framed and water tight I don't mind spending years on the interior.
If you go with new trusses, have the truse company add the inhches you need you would'nt want to just add to the wall for extra height it would be a weak point.
If you were going to add new rafters above, you would add a new ridge board also you would just have to beef up the support on each end for the ridge beam, The lower end of the rafters would put weight on the exterior wall. Either way, it should be run past an engineer anyway.
With new trusses you could leave the walls low and do it with sissor trusses for a vaulted ceiling with out adding much cost, if any.
I had thought about step vaulting the ceiling as is , if I left the roof framing , and it was worthy . I would have to have exposed joists , but somehow make it look good. If I went this route , what is the best option for venting without a ridge vent?

The Stage Metronom Theater at CentrO in Oberhausen presents a show full of maritime magic with an amazingly real cruise ship and 21 songs by Udo Jürgens, one of the most prolific and successful German-language artists. ICH WAR NOCH NIEMALS IN NEW YORK will put the sun in your heart and a smile on your face.
A majestic ocean liner sets sail at the Stage Metronom Theater seven times every week, carrying with it grand dreams, deep longings and the search for fulfilment in life. ICH WAR NOCH NIEMALS IN NEW YORK tells the light-hearted, romantic story of successful but stressed-out TV presenter Lisa Wartberg who is neglecting her mother. Out of the blue, her mother decides to marry the love of her life under the Statue of Liberty in New York. Unbeknown to their families, both women board a cruise ship. In her attempts to dissuade her mother from rashly going ahead, Lisa finds herself on a rollercoaster of emotions with surprising twists and turns. A tempestuous tale of confusion and self-discovery unfolds on the high seas.
At every performance, the spectacular backdrop, dazzling costumes and breathtaking special effects transport around 1,800 audience members to another world. Twenty-one songs by singer/entertainer Udo Jürgens – including hits like 'Aber bitte mit Sahne', 'Mit 66 Jahren', 'Vielen Dank für die Blumen' and 'Ich war noch niemals in New York' – create a rousing, singalong atmosphere. It's a wonderfully uplifting blend of humour, depth and entertainment. All aboard!

Rob McKenna is serving his second term as Washington's 17th Attorney General. As the state's chief legal officer, he directs more than 500 attorneys and 700 professional staff providing legal services to state agencies, the Governor and Legislature.
A national leader, McKenna is the President of the National Association of Attorneys General (NAAG). He has served in a number of leadership roles including: Vice-President (2009-2010), Executive Committee (2005-06, 2008-present),State-Federal Task Force on Mortgage Enforcement Co-chair (2009-present),Environment and Energy Committee Co-chair (2009-2010), Intellectual Property Committee Co-chair (2009-2010), Tobacco Committee Co-chair (2006-2009), Tobacco Strategic Planning Committee member (2006-present), Best Practices Task Force member (2009-present), Prescription Drug Abuse Working Group member (2009-present), Mission Foundation, Board of Directors & Investment Committee (2009-present), Financial Practices Committee Co-Chair (2005-06).
McKenna received his J.D. from the University of Chicago Law School in 1988, where he was a member of the Law Review. He earned a B.A. in Economics and a B.A. in International Studies, both with honors, from the University of Washington. McKenna was student body president at the U.W. and graduated Phi Beta Kappa. He has been an attorney since 1988, beginning his career in the Bellevue office of Perkins Coie, one of the nation's top 50 law firms, where he practiced business and regulatory law from 1988 to 1996.
In 1995, McKenna was elected to the Metropolitan King County Council. He was re-elected twice without opposition and was twice rated "Outstanding" by the Municipal League.
A committed community leader, McKenna has raised hundreds of thousands for the Eastside Domestic Violence Program and the Bellevue Schools Foundation (where he served two terms as president). An Eagle Scout himself, McKenna continues to serve as a board member with the Chief Seattle Council of the Boy Scouts of America, the Washington State Army Advisory Board and the Bellevue Community College Foundation (where he served as president in 2009-2010).
"Ask, Listen, Learn has been a great program that really reaches people because it goes where they live, which is largely online today, and because it reaches into the schools—gives parents and teachers tools to use in school and at home," says McKenna. We know this stuff works. We have reduced underage drinking in our state significantly. The Foundation for Advancing Alcohol Responsibility has been a really important partner for the Attorneys General in this country who have worked with them."
"We know most of the alcohol comes from family members. We have to as a society not wink at the problem. We have to recognize it's a serious issue. It isn't just about prevention. It's also about having conversations about why it's unwise."
We invite you to learn more about McKenna and the work he has done.

Want to know more? Take a look at the frequently asked questions below and see if it's been covered.
Q. Can I fight with my Force FX Lightsaber?
A. The Force FX lightsabers are considered collectable memorabilia. That being said, they are made from a combination of metals and plastics and have a fairly solid polycarbonate blade which can withstand quite a bit of dueling. This can lead to a failure in the LED string, but even Master Replicas and Hasbro have been promoting using them in dueling, and we can tell you it's a ton of fun! If you really want to use them though, consider purchasing a Battle Ready Force FX Lightsaber or, if you already have an FX lightsaber, you can get a luxeon conversion done on it.
Q. What forms of payment do you take?
A. We take Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover, and PayPal. All of these options are available during the checkout process. For more information, click here.
Q. Do you sell items that you do not have in stock?
A. Unlike some of our competitors, we only list and sell items that we have in stock on our site. The only exception is when we offer a pre-order, in which case the pre-order item is clearly marked as being pre-order with an expected date from the manufacturer.
Q. What is your return/refund policy?
A. Click here for details on our refund/exchange policy.
Q. Do you ever offer deals on your products?
A. Yes, we frequently offer sales and discounts on our products. If you sign up for our newsletter you can receive offers directly to your email! Also, we sometimes offer a limited Discount Code (for use during checkout), but we only occasionally offer them and they are usually only distributed to our newsletter subscribers. Also, people who have setup an account may occasionally find a code listed for them in their account summary.
Q. Are the items listed on the web-site brand new?
A. Yes, all of the items, except for items listed as NOT MINT and the Battle Ready Lightsabers, are brand new and sealed in the original manufacturer's packaging. NOT MINT items were display units or had damaged packaging so they have been removed from their packaging (for display purposes) and handled some. Battle Ready lightsabers are brand new Force FX lightsabers that our technician removes from the packaging and modifies per your specifications (modifications take 3-4 weeks before they are shipped out).

To those who have not yet heard, Hasbro has discontinued the Force FX lightsaber line. Right now they're saying for a year, but we're not going to wait for them. We will continue selling what inventory we have left, however, we're also working on new sabers, something unlike anything else you can find on the market. But if you want to get a Hasbro FX, buy now or when we run out, we probably won't be able to get any more of them.

After the last patch I have found myself under constant attacks from pirates in my game, for 8 consecutive turns I have been attacked by pirates in one of two particular systems.
Is this intended and I am just unlucky, or have I stumped onto a bug. It is annoying for me to sit and fight a 10 minute battle against pirates every turn, I don't want to lose more than the condemned freighter every damn turn.

Alexander A. Kaders (Kochanski)
No funeral services have been announced for Alexander A. Kaders (Kochanski.)
Born April 16, 1918 in Chicago, Ill. to Alexander Kochanski and Veronica (Kazsuba) Kochanski, Alexander died peacefully at his home in Bishop on April 20, 2011. He was 93.
Alexander is now reunited with his wife in Heaven.
He married Shirley Mildred (Witting) also of Chicago, in Chicago, in 1939. They were married until her death, on Aug. 12, 2002. They had been married for 63 years.
The day after Pearl Harbor, he and his best friend enlisted in the Navy. He was stationed on the destroyer, the USS Maury. His ship saw action in every Naval battle in the Pacific during WWII, and it also received the most citations and commendations of any ship in the Pacific. While his ship was being repaired in New York, the war officially ended. Alexander and Shirley celebrated in the streets of New York and were only a few people away from the couple in the photo that became so famous of the Navy seaman kissing the nurse.
After the war they moved to California, to attend college. He graduated from Biola and became a pastor, settling in Costa Mesa. He pastured Central Bible Church in Costa Mesa from 1951-1956. He and Shirley had one child, Betty Joy Catherine (Barrett). He continued his education and received a PhD in psychology. He taught at many universities including, Biola and the University of San Francisco. He also continued to pastor at the Grand Ave. Evangelical United Brethren church in Santa Ana, from 1958-1964 and the Trinity United Methodist church in Anaheim from 1984-2002. He was the director of Goodwill Industries for many years. While at Goodwill he wrote and was granted the largest grant ever to be granted at that time from the state of California, working with Governor Ronald Reagan. After retiring from Goodwill, he helped many people while continuing in private practice in Orange County. In October 2008, he moved to Bishop to live near his daughter and granddaughters. He was very inspirational to all who knew him.
He is survived by his daughter and son-in-law, Betty Joy and Don Barrett of Bishop; granddaughters and their spouses, Lisa and Mike Marusicz of Bishop, Sadie Flannigan of Bishop, Andrea Cronin of Newport Beach, and Lauren Barrett of Bishop; six great-grandchildren, Alexandria Cronin, of San Francisco, Brittney Cronin of Bishop, Christianna Cronin of Illinois, Devin Flannigan of Hemet, Mikey Marusicz of Bishop and Sabrina Flannigan of Bishop.

Ubuntu/Kubuntu forced it
Suse forced it
Fedora forced it.
I mean shit, you had the choice of not upgrading but support drops after a while.
Even Arch forced it.
Slackware? Forced! But not before some old regulars let Volkerding hold it.
Choice of new software is fixed like most elections.
The fact remains and I repeat: Kubuntu never ever forced KDE 4.0 on anyone because Kubuntu 8.04s main release shipped KDE 3.5. KDE 4.0 was only available as an unsupported Kubuntu Remix. Proof: http://www.kubuntu.org/news/8.04-release
If your colleges IT department chose to install that remix onto production machines, they are a bunch of retarded monkeys.
BTW: GNOME Shell is written in JavaScript and can easily be extended. Therefore is more configurable than any GNOME 2.x version ever released.
I never said 4.0 was forced on anyone. I said GNOME 3 was. Of KDE 4, I said it was a disaster. I also made it plain in a later post that we voluntarily decided to try out the latest and greatest KDE and didn't like what we saw.I haven't given KDE a spin since 4.0 because it was a disaster. It was every bit as usable and customizable as GNOME 3 when it was first forced on people.
I do look forward to your next failed attempt to twist my words into something I never said. I suspect it will hinge on my use of "4.0 / 4.X". But here's a nice nugget for you in the meantime: My first experience with the KDE 4 branch sucked dick. Your championing of it makes me like it even less.
Long story short, when you break my desktop experience by presenting me with a UI that I never wanted after begging me to upgrade, that's bad.
It strikes me that your argument about being free to use alternate DE's is functionally equivalent to denying Microsoft's vendor lock-in strategy. You can, after all, use another OS, so you're not being forced to use .Net or DirectX. Or in the Linux world, Canonical never forced the use of PulseAudio on anybody either, because you could always do a LOT of work and install OSS or finagle pure ALSA into working. Just fine. You know, like it did BEFORE they "improved" the audio stack by making PA the default and releasing it before it was ready.

NCIIP: Early Childhood and K-12 Education
Recent Activity
This report summarizes new data on the health of the children of immigrants, who represent nearly one-fourth of all children in the United States under the age of 18, finding that those with Mexican immigrant parents in particular tend to experience greater childhood health risks than most of their peers.
This report examines three types of educational and health policy interventions that may reduce disparities between the children of U.S.-born parents and their immigrant counterparts during the crucial transition between prekindergarten and elementary school.
This report examines the high school completion, college access, and postsecondary success of immigrant youth (ages 16 to 26) in Washington State, where one in four young adults is an immigrant or child of an immigrant. The report provides one of the first cross-system analyses of the educational experiences of first-generation (foreign-born) and second-generation (U.S.-born with immigrant parents) youth in the state.
This report examines how a parent's unauthorized status affects child development. Based on a review of existing research that increasingly points to negative developmental consequences of parental unauthorized status across all stages of childhood, the authors explore possible options for policies and programs that could mitigate these risks, and propose ways to achieve this goal within the framework of proposed comprehensive immigration reform.
This report, Volume 1 of a three-volume set commissioned by the Winthrop Rockefeller Foundation that examines the immigrant population in Arkansas, provides a demographic and socioeconomic profile of Arkansas immigrants and their children, including a description of immigrant workers in the Arkansas economy. The three volumes build upon a previous study of the Arkansas immigrant population that was published in 2007.
The event discussion, which touched on the intersection of race and immigration, focused on the demographics of Black immigrants (both African and Caribbean) in the United States and their children, their educational success, and the implications of the recently released volume's findings for research and public policy.
This interdisciplinary volume examines the health, well-being, school readiness, and academic achievement of children in Black immigrant families (most with parents from Africa and the Caribbean)—a population that has had little academic attention even as it represents an increasing share of the U.S. Black child population.
Using a nationally representative U.S. birth-cohort study, this report examines levels of school readiness among young children by race/ethnicity and nativity. The authors identify the contextual factors — such as family circumstances, parenting practices, and enrollment in center-based child care — that encourage early school success.
