BP Oil Spill Aftermath: Eyeless Shrimp, Clawless Crabs
Al Jazeera just published an astonishing report on the after-effects of the BP oil disaster, and it's not pretty. There are an alarming number of deformities in sea creatures: mutated shrimp, fish with sores and lesions, eyeless crabs and more. It's unlike anything local fisherman have ever seen.

Vines, Ivy or whatever for deck privacy
Hi all, I live in a crowded suburban neighborhood in zone 7a with a large deck off the back of my house. I have one of the few 2 story homes in the neighborhood and my deck is off the second floor. Consequently, when I go out on the deck, I look out at all the neighbors backyards and they can look up at me. I have placed ornamental grasses and large potted plants around the deck but I have 2 planters with trellises in the corner that I would like to grow some kind of ivy or vine to give me more privacy (see picture). The deck is facing north and gets sun all day long. Ideally this is what I am looking for:
1-Something that is REALLY fast growing. I use the deck from May to Sept. and can't wait all summer for something to grow.
2-No berries or fruit that's going to stain the deck.
3-Flowers are ok as long as they don't attract bees. The table and chairs will be right by the planter.
4-I would love to have a perennial but it would have to be able to withstand being outside in a pot all winter long.
Last year, I planted black eyed susan vine but it took all summer just to reach the top of the trellis and even at that it didn't fill in much. I put either a potted palm or ornamental grass in between the 2 planters.
I know that I'm asking a lot but maybe someone out there has a few ideas. Thanks.

Thanks Christine and hoovb. Christine, I just had the deck put in 2 years ago and the builder asked me if I wanted lattice put in for privacy. Duh- I should have done it then. Oh well. hoovb, sweet potato vine sounds great. I looked it up and, although its a creeper, people have said that you can train it to grow vertically. That sounds like something that would work for me. Thanks!

Red Stains from Water
Hi Everyone.
I moved into my new house in New Jersey in May and shortly after started noticing that where ever water puddles or touches (toilet, shower floor, around sink drains, and around jets in whirlpool tub), it turns bright red a few days after cleaning. It's entirely new construction, all new Pex plumbing and a new waterline to the street. I've spoken to the water company and they have run quality tests on samples taken from my house and everything falls in the allowable ranges. So now I am at a loss. Any ideas on what could be causing these bright red stains.? Thanks for any help.
Red stains obviously sounds like iron deposits. What was their reading for iron levels in the water they tested?
Realize that water standards are only about water safety (i.e. will someone get sick if they drink it). They have nothing to do with what is typically deemed satisfactory regarding taste, odor, hardness, etc. Specifically ask them what they are referring to regarding 'allowable levels'. Levels for safety of iron are much much higher that what is tolerable for aesthetics and taste. Anything above 0.5 ppm of iron is a whole lot of iron and will lead to staining, but you can drink water with many ppm's of iron in it and be 'safe'.
Since you have PEX plumbing and likely no iron pipes, the iron source is likely from the water source itself or from accumulation upstream of where your service joins. Do your neighbors experience this problem too? That will give you a clue as to the source.
Hi Buzzsaw -
Iron was my first thought too.
The water quality specialist was a little hard to understand so I'm going to have to ask him to fax me the results. Bear with me with these results. He did say that hardwater was 98 (not sure if 98% or .98 or what), the chlorine was 3.1, the PH was 7.4 and something about water clarity was.12. He said that because of the water clarity result that means that the iron level would be low??? The didn't make much sense to me, but then again I'm not a water quality specialist. He thinks that because the water tests are fine that it's something airborne in my new construction that reacts with the surfaces and turns them red. I've never heard of anything like that, but again, I'm not a water quality expert. I think I might need to have an independent analysis done.
So, is the color blood-red, or more orange? If orange, is it dark orange or light orange? Dark is likely iron, light could be chromium. Blood-red would be something else...
Tell him to give you the units of the contents as well. Does little w/o the units.
98 ppm of hardness is different than 98 grains; neither is too good...
The color is definitely red, not orange. If it let it go more than a few days in between cleanings (which is a pain) it starts turning really dark red.
He faxed me the results, but the quality was too poor to read. I didn't think that 98 hardness in any measurement was good. I'm surprised that public water would be that bad in terms of hardness?
I don't have an answer, but if you ever get one, please let me know! We have the same problem (northern VA here), building's only 2 years old (and has done it from the beginning), and no answers. I'm guessing some kind of bacteria or mold (not that it takes long to build up) but I really don't know. (my apologies if this posts twice, having form issues. >.

FAA to close four air traffic control towers in Oregon
- Erik Siemers
- Managing Editor- Portland Business Journal
- Email | Twitter | Google+
The Federal Aviation Administration on Friday said it will close 149 air traffic control towers at small- and medium-sized airports across the U.S. next month, including four in Oregon.
The four included in Oregon are at Southwest Oregon Regional Airport in North Bend, Eastern Oregon Regional Airport in Pendleton, McNary Field in Salem and Portland-Troutdale Airport in Troutdale.
As Business Journal Washington Bureau Chief Kent Hoover reports, the closures — which take effect over a four-week period beginning April 7 — are the result of sequestration's $637 million cut to the FAA budget.
The total is 40 fewer than the FAA originally said would be closed. The agency said it decided to keep 24 towers open because they are important to national security, the economy and multi-state transportation networks. Another 16 towers will stay open because the cost of operating them is shared with other governments.
The FAA pledged to work with airports to make sure that airplanes can fly in and out of them safely without air traffic control towers.
Click here for the complete list of closures.

Acoustat (1+1) + (1+1) = 2+2 with one pair 121B interfaces
Acoustat Query:
I have an opportunity to acquire (locally, I know it's amazing), another pair of 1+1's.
I am considering marrying them to my current and wonderfully restored/updated 1+1's that I acquired last summer. The only concern I have had to date with the 1+1's are occasional bass passages that will cause a static pop, even at low volumes. Folks in the know say this was a shortcoming with the 1+1 design. Perhaps true.
There was a conversation about adding panels to convert to a 2+2 to eradicate this condition.
So the question is if I buy another pair of 1+1's and mechanically marry them to the first pair wiring included (less the new pair's interfaces), and modify the bass wiring in the original 121-B interface to the orange pole (if I recall correctly), will this yield a better performing assembly? Will I have bass without subsonic passage static pops. Will the frequency spec be as per a 2+2 at 28-20K Hz @115 db or as per the 1+1 at 30-28K Hz @110 db?
Will the assemblage image as well as the 1+1's?
Will they image better?
Will they sound better, i.e. sound-stage etc.
The sound room measures 17x24x12h, so I have the space to suit a 2+2.
Please advise on all.
Many thanks,

Imaging will be slightly decreased, but it will still be excellent. This was always a compromise with Acoustat's MK121 series: narrow models like the Model 1 and 1+1 had the best imaging but very limited bass capability, whereas wider models like the 3, 4 and 2+2 had greatly increased bass capacity but less precise imaging. This is a consequence of driving all panel area full range. This trade-off between models was largely addressed with Spectra's variable-area technology, where all models have nearly identical imaging characteristics, but with increasing bass response and dynamic capacity as the number of panels increases.
In regards to frequency response, you WILL have a Model 2+2, not something 'like' it, so your creation will have the same specs as a factory-built 2+2. By the way, the transformer tap should be adjusted from RED (for the 1+1) to YELLOW for the 4-panel 2+2. The ORANGE tap is intended for 3-panel systems. Other than the selection of the bass tap, there is no difference between the MK-121 used for the 1+1 or 2+2.

Hello Andy,
Thank you so much for your kind reply and I saw your posted note on the FB Acoustat Group too.
You saw that I did acquire the additional pair (for a song!).
I had another query about doing a quasi dry run running two 1+1's simultaneously (all four interfaces) via Siamese speaker wire split to each interface respectively. It seems to work! I was wondering if there was anything detrimental to the system (amp, preamp, interfaces) by doing this. I can clearly hear the difference between the non serviced interfaces and the interfaces that Roy worked on for me. Roy's are light airy, transparent and with greater range as compared to the newly acquired units, which sound dull comparatively.
So that was my first concern, split audio cable wiring.
Secondly, when committing to the conversion to a 2+2, my plan is to mechanically fasten the 1+1 frames together to unitize them.
I plan on a straight array, not unless someone tells me that a splayed array avoids a noise cancelling effect that occurs in a straight array configuration . If it's only a sound dispersion issue I will go straight array. If splayed is required what is the center axis angle to each panel, in degrees. Please advise.
I am also concerned about the best way to wire the new one plus one panels into the modded interfaces (Roy's). I want to do it right the first time to the best possible spec. What is the best (sounding) method to wire these over to Roy's interfaces. What gauge/type of wire is recommended and what process of attaching, i.e. solder wire leads from one to another or should I mechanically fasten plate connectors and solder those accordingly? Should the interface wires be connected to each other and have a midpoint tap that runs to the poles of Roy's interfaces, like a Siamese Y?
What do folks do about the base? As I don't have 2+2's I need to make a base. What were the working dimensions of the 2+2's bases? Is there a schematic layout somewhere? T-nuts will have to be installed from below to catch the interfaces. I can wing it, but if there are dimensions that I can follow that work, that would be helpful.
And as I will likely try to sell the non-modded interfaces, will I need to compensate for the loss of ballast weight back there so the speakers are properly balanced on their based and not susceptible to falling over. What is recommended here?
Thanks for your advice in advance.

I wish I could give you a more compelling explanation of why you should 1) build a new frame so that the side-by-side panels are as close to each other as possible, and 2) there should be a slight angle between the panels. Perhaps 20 years ago I could have explained it better. Suffice to say that every Acoustat speaker ever produced (except Spectras) had an angle between panels. That alone should be enough reason, but perhaps someone else can help me with the explanation, and also help me remember whether the angle is 6 or 9 degrees. I think it was 9 degrees on some of the earlier speakers, but was reduced to 6 degrees for the 2+2.
The wiring is straightforward, with all bias wires connected to the red interface terminal, all rear stator wires connected to the blue terminal, and all front stator wires connected to the white terminal. If you build a frame as I recommend, then you should already have enough wire length for each panel's wires to go directly to the interface. If not, use wire rated for a minimum of 10-kV to extend the wires. A small gauge is fine: the original wires are 24 GA.
The new base should be constructed in the same fashion as the 1+1 base, only larger. There are no published drawings that I am aware of. I would recommend adding an inch or two to the front and rear edges, and make the width as large as necessary to accommodate the frame width. The same interface was used on the 2+2, so 'ballast weight' will be the same as a stock unit.

Thanks Andy,
Thanks for the wiring info. I will digest on the frame suggestion, the jury is still out on the splayed panel design.
I think the panels will image better when aligned and not splayed.
Perhaps other Acoustat folks could chime in here and advise.

The Clue of the Forgotten Murderby Erle Stanley Gardner
[from the back cover] "An Erle Stanley Gardner Special When a very respectable man, a candidate for councilman on a reform ticket' in fact, is picked up drunk as a hoot-owl and involved with a girl hitch-hiker, there are apt to be headlines. The Blade printed them in large, black type. That led to a libel suit and a secret investigation by a Blade reporter. At least it was supposed to be secret. But apparently the wrong person or persons unknown got wind of it, because the reporter soon became a corpse lying in a vacant lot. Sidney Griff, the criminologist, teamed with the Blade's publisher to track down missing girls, phony checks, and finally a long forgotten murder. The publisher threw his weight around with muscular abandon. Griff played human checkers with suspects, forcing them to move and reveal themselves. Between them, they wound up the case with a blast of gunfire and a shocking discovery."

Debates about gender in the British Romantic period often invoked the idea of sexual enjoyment: there was a broad cultural concern about jouissance, the all-engulfing pleasure pertaining to sexual gratification. On one hand, these debates made possible the modern psychological concept of the unconscious - since desire was seen as an uncontrollable force, the unconscious became the repository of disavowed enjoyment and the reason for sexual difference. On the other hand, the tighter regulation of sexual enjoyment made possible a vast expansion of the limits of imaginable sexuality. In Sexual Enjoyment and British Romanticism, David Sigler shows how literary writers could resist narrowing gender categories by imagining unregulated enjoyment. As some of the era's most prominent thinkers - including Edmund Burke, Mary Wollstonecraft, Mary Robinson, Joanna Southcott, Charlotte Dacre, Jane Austen, and Percy Bysshe Shelley - struggled to understand sexual enjoyment, they were able to devise new pleasures in a time of narrowing sexual possibilities. Placing Romantic-era literature in conversation with Lacanian psychoanalytic theory, Sexual Enjoyment in British Romanticism reveals the fictive structure of modern sexuality, makes visible the diversity of sexual identities from the period, and offers a new understanding of gender in British Romanticism.

He's left to raise an infant, a toddler and a ten-year-old girl who hasn't uttered a word since her mother's death. It's hard not to care for the widowed marine with three young children. Yet he's still grieving, too burdened with guilt to fall in love again. And Hope Alwanga's future as a doctor awaits her on the other side of the world, in Nairobi.

Williams, retired Chief Justice, Rhode Island Supreme Court, and founding chair of The Lincoln Forum.
Curiosityby Alberto Manguel
Curiosity has been seen through the ages as the impulse that drives our knowledge forward and the temptation that leads us toward dangerous and forbidden waters. The question "Why?" has appeared under a multiplicity of guises and in vastly different contexts throughout the chapters of human history. Why does evil exist? What is beauty? How does language inform us? What defines our identity? What is our responsibility to the world? In Alberto Manguel's most personal book to date, the author tracks his own life of curiosity through the reading that has mapped his way. Manguel chooses as his guides a selection of writers who sparked his imagination. He dedicates each chapter to a single thinker, scientist, artist, or other figure who demonstrated in a fresh way how to ask "Why?" Leading us through a full gallery of inquisitives, among them Thomas Aquinas, David Hume, Lewis Carroll, Rachel Carson, Socrates, and, most importantly, Dante, Manguel affirms how deeply connected our curiosity is to the readings that most astonish us, and how essential to the soaring of our own imaginations.
Languages of the Nightby Barry Mccrea
This book argues that the sudden decline of old rural vernaculars - such as French patois, Italian dialects, and the Irish language - caused these languages to become the objects of powerful longings and projections that were formative of modernist writing. Seán Ó Ríordáin in Ireland and Pier Paolo Pasolini in Italy reshaped minor languages to use as private idioms of poetry; the revivalist conception of Irish as a lost, perfect language deeply affected the work of James Joyce; the disappearing dialects of northern France seemed to Marcel Proust to offer an escape from time itself. Drawing on a broad range of linguistic and cultural examples to present a major reevaluation of the origins and meaning of European literary modernism, Barry McCrea shows how the vanishing languages of the European countryside influenced metropolitan literary culture in fundamental ways.
France 1940by Philip Nord
In this revisionist account of France's crushing defeat in 1940, a world authority on French history argues that the nation's downfall has long been misunderstood. Philip Nord assesses France's diplomatic and military preparations for war with Germany, its conduct of the war once the fighting began, and the political consequences of defeat on the battlefield. He also tracks attitudes among French leaders once defeat seemed a likelihood, identifying who among them took advantage of the nation's misfortunes to sabotage democratic institutions and plot an authoritarian way forward. Nord finds that the longstanding view that France's collapse was due to military unpreparedeness and a decadent national character is unsupported by fact. Instead, he reveals that the Third Republic was no worse prepared and its military failings no less dramatic than those of the United States and other Allies in the early years of the war. What was unique in France was the betrayal by military and political elites who abandoned the Republic and supported the reprehensible Vichy takeover. Why then have historians and politicians ever since interpreted the defeat as a judgment on the nation as a whole? Why has the focus been on the failings of the Third Republic and not on elite betrayal? The author examines these questions in a fascinating conclusion.
The Heroic Slaveby Frederick Douglass Robert S. Levine John R. Mckivigan Professor John Stauffer
First published nearly a decade prior to the Civil War, The Heroic Slave is the only fictional work by abolitionist, orator, author, and social reformer Frederick Douglass, himself a former slave. It is inspired by the true story of Madison Washington, who, along with eighteen others, took control of the slave ship Creole in November 1841 and sailed it to Nassau in the British colony of the Bahamas, where they could live free. This new critical edition, ideal for classroom use, includes the full text of Douglass's fictional recounting of the most successful slave revolt in American history, as well as an interpretive introduction; excerpts from Douglass's correspondence, speeches, and editorials; short selections by other writers on the Creole rebellion; and recent criticism on the novella.
The Rise of Thomas Cromwellby Michael Everett
How much does the Thomas Cromwell of popular novels and television series resemble the real Cromwell? This meticulous study of Cromwell's early political career expands and revises what has been understood concerning the life and talents of Henry VIII's chief minister. Michael Everett provides a new and enlightening account of Cromwell's rise to power, his influence on the king, his role in the Reformation, and his impact on the future of the nation. Controversially, Everett depicts Cromwell not as the fervent evangelical, Machiavellian politician, or the revolutionary administrator that earlier historians have perceived. Instead he reveals Cromwell as a highly capable and efficient servant of the Crown, rising to power not by masterminding Henry VIII's split with Rome but rather by dint of exceptional skills as an administrator.
Browned Off and Bloody-Mindedby Alan Allport
More than three-and-a-half million men served in the British Army during the Second World War, the vast majority of them civilians who had never expected to become soldiers and had little idea what military life, with all its strange rituals, discomforts, and dangers, was going to be like. Alan Allport's rich and luminous social history examines the experience of the greatest and most terrible war in history from the perspective of these ordinary, extraordinary men, who were plucked from their peacetime families and workplaces and sent to fight for King and Country. Allport chronicles the huge diversity of their wartime trajectories, tracing how soldiers responded to and were shaped by their years with the British Army, and how that army, however reluctantly, had to accommodate itself to them. Touching on issues of class, sex, crime, trauma, and national identity, through a colorful multitude of fresh individual perspectives, the book provides an enlightening, deeply moving perspective on how a generation of very modern-minded young men responded to the challenges of a brutal and disorienting conflict.

Aaron Hernandez associate indicted
FALL RIVER, Mass. (AP)
A second associate of former New England Patriot Aaron Hernandez has been indicted on a charge of accessory to murder after the fact in the killing of Hernandez's friend, the Bristol County district attorney said Friday.
A grand jury indicted Carlos Ortiz on a single count in connection with the killing of Odin Lloyd, District Attorney Samuel Sutter said. Until now, Ortiz had been facing only a gun charge in connection with the case. He pleaded not guilty to that charge.
Ortiz's attorney, John Connors, said Friday that the indictment wasn't unexpected. He said Ortiz will plead not guilty to the new charge and that he will make an argument for bail but had no further comment. A hearing on the gun charge that was scheduled for Friday will not go ahead.
Given the indictment, Ortiz's case will now shift to superior court in Fall River. His arraignment there has not been scheduled.
Lloyd was found shot to death on June 17 in an industrial park in North Attleborough, Mass., near Hernandez's home. Lloyd, a 27-year-old Boston semi-professional football player, was dating the sister of Hernandez's girlfriend.
Hernandez has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder and weapons charges in Lloyd's death and is being held without bail at a county jail. Prosecutors say Hernandez was upset with Lloyd for talking to people at a nightclub a few days earlier with whom he'd had problems.
Prosecutors say Ortiz and another associate, Ernest Wallace, were with Hernandez and Lloyd on the night Lloyd was killed. Wallace has also been indicted on a charge of accessory to murder after the fact. He has pleaded not guilty and been ordered held on $500,000 bail.
During Wallace's bail hearing Thursday, prosecutors revealed that Ortiz, one of their key witnesses, has changed his story about the night of the killing. Assistant District Attorney Patrick Bomberg said Ortiz had told authorities at least a half-dozen times that both Hernandez and Wallace got out of a car, along with Lloyd, at the industrial park before Ortiz heard shots ring out.
But according to Bomberg, Ortiz now says he doesn't believe Wallace got out of the car.
Ortiz's attorney had no comment on the new information from prosecutors.

I've had a couple of different beers now with these widget thingees in them. Aside from the nice creamy head...what good are these things. The beer is totally flat! Am I drinking them to cold? I just can't see the point.
[/I] Up Next - HobgoblinAfter That - Czech PilsnerPrimary - Humboldt Hop Rod (4/24)Primary - NOT Wheat AG SNCA (5/5)Secondary - Conditioning - SNCA Clone (3/3),
I drank a lot of Caffreys in London when I lived there. The beer was never flat, never that cold but was refrigerated, it was creamy when poured and then cleared as the head rose. How soon after popping the tab do you pour them, we used to give the Caffreys about 5-10 seconds for the widget to degas and then pour. I have seen other people pour as soon as popping the tab and the widget doesnt have time to do its thing while others wait for a while and when they pour the beer it is already cleared either way the head doesnt develop the way it should. At least those are my two widgets worth. MPW
Guinness, Kilkenny etc. are all supposed to be flat.
I can go the occasional Guiness, but generally I prefer my beer carbonated (and chilled - the thought of drinking warm ale...well, you don't want to know)
On a side note, but somewhat related, I picked up a 20# CO2 tank yesterday for $50. Took it to my HBS today and traded it for at 20# NO2 tank and just paid the $25 for refill. Bought the N2 regulator for $75 and a N2 tap for $25.. plus some hops... a draft beer.. some tubing... and now I have a Nitrogen setup and it only cost me............................................. $234! And I still keep telling my wife how I'm saving money! 20# of N2 should be good for a few years, though.

NEVER click on the links in an email that is suspicious, or from someone you don't know.
NEVER provide your personal information in response to an unsolicited request, whether it's over the phone or over the Internet. Emails and Internet pages created by phishers may look exactly like the real thing. They may even have a fake padlock icon that ordinarily is used to denote a secure site. If you did not initiate the communication, you should not provide any information.
NEVER provide your password over the phone or in response to an unsolicited phone or Internet request. A financial institution would never ask you to verify your account information online. Thieves armed with this information and your account number can help themselves to your money. Also, never click on the link provided in an email you believe is fraudulent. It may contain a virus that can contaminate your computer.
Don't be intimidated by an email or caller who suggests dire consequences if you do not immediately provide or verify financial information.
If you believe the contact may be legitimate, contact us to verify by calling Blackhawk Bank's Client Service Department at 866.771.8924. The key is that YOU should be the one to initiate the contact, using contact information that you have verified yourself.
Review account statements regularly to ensure all charges are correct. Regularly review account activity online to catch suspicious activity. If your account statement is late arriving in the mail, call to find out why.
If you have been a victim of an Internet scam or have received an email that you believe was an attempted scam, please file a complaint at www.IC3.gov.
What to do if it happens:
If you have given your debit card information, your card has been compromised and should be shut down and replaced. If you did not give your card information, please continue to use it, but monitor your account for any suspicious activity.
If you have given your account number, monitor your account and report any suspicious activity immediately.
1. If you fall victim to an attack, alert us immediately to protect yourself. Call 866.771.8924.
2. Place fraud alerts on your credit files, to help prevent thieves from opening an account in your name.
3. To place the alerts, call or log onto:
Equifax (800) 525-6285
Experian (888) 397-3742
TransUnion (800) 680-7289
4. Monitor your credit files and account statements closely.
5. Verify your account information by requesting your credit report annually. Blackhawk Bank will provide you with a FREE Credit Report and Score once per year from TransUnion. You can also request a copy by contacting one of the three major credit bureaus.
Also contact the Federal Trade Commission to report what happened. You can call the FTC's ID Theft Hotline: 1-877-IDTHEFT (438-4338) for up-to-date information about how to work with credit bureaus and law enforcement agencies to reclaim your identity. The FTC's website: www.ftc.gov is a one-stop national resource to learn about the crime of identity theft. It provides detailed information to help deter, detect, and defend against identity theft. Consumers can learn how to avoid identity theft and learn what to do if their identity is stolen. Businesses can learn how to help their customers deal with identity theft, as well as how to prevent problems in the first place.
To Report a Lost or Stolen Debit MasterCard:
Call Client Services @ 866-771-8924 from 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM Monday - Friday; 8:30 -12:30 Saturdays. After hours, please call 866.546.8273
Safety Tips to Protect Your Mobile Device:
- When purchasing a smartphone, know the features of the device, including the default settings. Turn off features of the device not needed to minimize the attack surface of the device.
- Depending on the type of phone, the operating system may have encryption available. This can be used to protect the users personal data in the case of loss or theft.
- With the growth of the application market for mobile devices, users should look at the reviews of the developer/company who published the application.
- Review and understand the permissions you are giving when you download applications.
- Passcode protect your mobile device. This is the first layer of physical security to protect the contents of the device. In conjunction with the passcode, enable the screen lock feature after a few minutes of inactivity.
- Obtain malware protection for your mobile device. Look for applications that specialize in antivirus or file integrity that helps protect your device from rogue applications and malware.
- Be aware of applications that enable geo-location. The application will track the users location anywhere. This application can be used for marketing, but can also be used by malicious actors, raising concerns of assisting a possible stalker and/or burglaries.
- Jailbreak or rooting is used to remove certain restrictions imposed by the device manufacturer or cell phone carrier. This allows the user nearly unregulated control over what programs can be installed and how the device can be used. However, this procedure often involves exploiting significant security vulnerabilities and increases the attack surface of the device. Anytime an application or service runs in unrestricted or system level within an operation system, it allows any compromise to take full control of the device.
- Do not allow your device to connect to unknown wireless networks. These networks could be rogue access points that capture information passed between your device and a legitimate server.
- If you decide to sell your device or trade it in, make sure you wipe the device (reset it to factory default) to avoid leaving personal data on the device.
- Smartphones require updates to run applications and firmware. If users neglect this, it increases the risk of having their device hacked or compromised.
- Avoid clicking on or otherwise downloading software or links from unknown sources.
- Use the same precautions on your mobile phone as you would on your computer when using the Internet.
FDIC Consumer News frequently publishes articles about common frauds to avoid. Con artists are very good at tricking consumers into parting with money or divulging personal information that can be used to steal funds or run up thousands of dollars in fraudulent credit card charges.

taking apart mdf cabinet - mystery fasteners
Hi, my parents have a particle board cabinet that needs to come apart for transport (OK, I am praying that it can come apart for transport). I am familiar with regular KD fasteners but we can't figure these out.
From the outside of the cabinet, no fasteners are visible. Inside, from the underside of the top and of each shelf, there are these very strange plastic caps, with slots, recessed in a 3/4-1" hole. I'm sorry my photo of the inside of the cabinet is a bit fuzzy (wasn't wearing my glasses, sorry!), but you might get the general idea.
The caps will turn a bit, but won't come out, and we have no idea what is under them. Are the caps the fasteners, or are there screws of some sort underneath?
We are hesitant to force the caps off without understanding what they are or what they are intended to do. Wondering if anyone can provide some guidance for detaching them.
Karin L
I might have something like that (mine are metal). Mine are kinda like barrel nuts. But not exactly. You turn them and they let go (or pull in) a pin coming in to the side of them from the other piece.
Can you turn them at all? Mine have a tiny arrow that you point to the pin thing when they're unlocked. There's nothing like good terminology!
I dunno. But it's a similar type of furniture...flat pack self assembly.
Oh, an alignment thing! What a good idea. We'll look for that next time we're over there. We can turn some of them a bit, but turning doesn't seem to make them go in or out at all - that is, they don't seem to be threaded.
They're not barrel nuts (new word for me) because I think you'd see those from another side. But the idea that something has to be aligned for these plastic caps to come off gives me hope.
Thank you!
Karin L
You have a version of this connector, for knockdown assembly:
You rotate the visible head that is in the carcass side as much as you can, then pop the top up vertically. The pin part of the connector is threaded onto the cabinet top and get inserted into a hole drilled in the top edge of the cabinet side. Then you rotate the cam that is inserted in the cabinet side and that captures (or to take it apart, it releases) the rounded head on the pin.
There are different versions of knock-down connectors, so you may not have the exact same on.
Ah, now it's starting to make sense. I did many searches for "MDF fastener" and variations thereof but did not find this one, thank you, Mongoct. For that, and your clear explanation of how it works. Since our cams (helpful word, that) are in the underside of the shelves, not on the sidewalls, something is likely to be different, but understanding what variations there are is going to help.
Karin L
Having now had it out with the cabinet, we figured out that they are indeed plastic cams, and the cabinet came home in one piece because they would not come out. PLASTIC CAMS ARE A BAD IDEA! I will get some photos of what I had to do to get some of them out after they cracked, which may have been when my dear old dad decided that if tight was good, tighter must be better, or when we first tried to remove them.
Thank you all so much for the help.

San Francisco passes nation's first Retail Workers Bill of Rights, addressing erratic scheduling and part-time work
The week of midterm exams is stressful for any college student. For San Francisco State student Michelle Flores, it was another stress-filled example of the unfair conditions she and millions of other retail workers face on a regular basis.
New Mexico dairy farm workers face dangerous workplace conditions and fears of retaliation; Chicago passes minimum wage increase; worker dies at Staten Island car dealership; and Philadelphia task force supports paid sick leave.
New report chronicles the low wages of child care workers; Johns Hopkins black lung review still unfinished; California nurses go on strike; and OSHA calls on retailers to protect their workers during Black Friday.
Dangerous workplace speedups a hidden side of the economic recovery; California recycling workers vote to unionize; emergency responders in west Texas face new challenges during energy boom; and the U.S. lags in eliminating the gender pay gap.
Raising the federal minimum wage isn't only good for workers — it's good for the federal budget as well, according to a new issue brief from the Economic Policy Institute.
In-depth series investigates worker misclassification; NIOSH observes N95 Day; fast food workers take to the streets; and California moves toward paid sick leave law.
Texas workers face higher workplace fatality risks; Washington state court ruling holds parent company liable for wage violations; rail workers dismayed by union deal that threatens safety; and transgender workers receive new workplace protections.
Massachusetts advocates optimistic about paid sick leave ballot: 'We need public policies that lift people up and keep families healthy'
After nearly a decade of hoping state legislators would pass an earned paid sick time law, advocates in Massachusetts decided it was time to put the question to voters. Now, in November, voters will have the chance to help improve the lives of nearly 1 million workers who can't earn one, single hour of sick leave and are often left to choose between caring for themselves or a loved one, paying the bills or losing a job.
Obama signs order requiring certain contractors to disclose labor violations; judge rules in favor of college athletes; Brooklyn hospital fined for workplace violence; and workers take wage theft to court.

Growth of dog's nails
I heard that if you never clip a dog's nails, the quick will grow longer and you will never be able to get the dog's nails short. Is this true?
Our lab is so active that her nails stay short but since we have had so much snow, she can't run outdoors like normal. She is almost 2 yrs. now and we have never trimmed her nails and wonder if it is necessary since in the spring, they should wear down naturally.
In the past, we always trimmed our dog's nails, but this is the first dog that we have ever had that can be free outdoors.
The quick will grow, but if you start trimming every week or so as close to the quick as possible, it will recede again. I wouldn't worry too much about it. My dogs' get their nails trimmed maybe 2-3 times a year and they are indoor most of the time. Their quicks haven't gotten too long.
i have to dremel my greyhounds' nails once a month...but the quicks have really receded, esp in the female-her nails were a mess when i got her, so long, must have really painful, as long nails push back on the entire toe structure...so i have just been working away at them bit by bit and they are quite good now. I have a much happier greyhound! When I got her, she did not want to go for a walk at all, and now she's the first one at the door!

Uncle Gus' RV Park & Marina
Clifton, Texas
Phone: (254) 622-2276
Sites: 75
Recent Rate: $26 7/2010
These reviews are the opinion of an RVParkReviews' member and not the views of RVParkReviews.com
Date of Stay: July, 2010 - $26.00
The marina & RV park is on Lake Whitney - a HUGE lake NW of Waco. The sites vary in quality. Ours had a cement patio, picnic table and small BBQ. Lot's of trees (small oaks - normal for the hill country) which do provide much needed shade in July. However, that makes it, uh, interesting maneuvering your class A or 5er around! It took three of us to safely get our 36' motorhome tucked away. Be sure to check the web site and request a specific site if necessary. The staff is very helpful and accommodating. Most of the sites are gravel and leveling may be an issue. Again - check the site once you get there before committing to it. Couple of pools that looked well maintained. Keyed laundry facilities, showers and rest rooms. If you're looking for a base camp for fishing - this is a good choice. We camped at Uncle Gus' RV Park & Marina in a Motorhome.Undo
