People need to know all the facts before making such awful comments.

That is exactly right people do need to know all the facts before making such awful comments!! It just really makes me sick to think the tarrantco/da convicted Christopher of MURDER. Murder it was not! Just because he has had 2 prior DWI? Well that tells me maybe the young man had some kind of problem the state of Texas should have figured that out by the 2nd DWI. Not slap him on the hand then should have got him some court order help & support. So as I see the state of Texas has yet failed. So is it fair to say state of Texas is guilty of murder to? I bet you youre fast to say no
This young man has been yet failed by the state of Texas once again. He guilty of a stupidity,but not of murder. Just another person failed by Texas sent away to rot forever!!!
#3 May 6, 2009
Good riddance to this criminal! A third DWI is not a "mistake." It shows willful and reckless disregard for human life. He deserves to be in jail and off the road for all our sakes. And to the poster who wrote that the state of Texas is at fault. Give me a break! The man was driving on a suspended license. He had already spent time in jail, then broke the law again by choosing to drive on a suspended license -- not to mention the DWI. I'm glad for the victim's family that this man is going to be locked up for 40 years.

Ohh the Nevada (where ever that is) comment is probably from the dumbest person ive ever seen write... Ever heard the saying.. DONT MESS WITH TEXAS... That idiot got exactly what he deserved.. well not really, should have received life.. ALSO know your facts... 4 Officers testified on 4 previous DWI's, not to include arrest for dope and assault.. The crash was his 5th DWI.. Dont nose around what you know nothing about!!! TEXAS doesn't babysit, you play you pay..
#5 May 11, 2009
OH YA, That poor little boy DID NOT have a driver's license either... And thats the end of the story
#6 Jun 9, 2009
The facts are that poor little unlicensed boy chose to drive a car with a blood alcohol level of .19, which, in every state in this country, is illegal. He got convicted twice before...and you know what, my friend Madhuri is dead because of it. 40 years will not bring her back...at least you can have the peace of mind knowing he won't be out here with the opportunity to kill someone you love.
#7 Aug 20, 2009
You obviously were a juror. This young man DID NOT HAVE FOUR PREVIOUS DWI's. You all did NOT hear all of the evidence. It would be one thing if he intentionally set out to cause harm, but Madhuri, 15 years his senior, and intoxicated, told Chris to drive. A 36-year-old should have said neither one of us is driving. That in and of itself is worth something. Do not blame this entire tragedy on the young man.
#8 Jan 1, 2010
As a close friend of Madhuri's, this whole accident was a tragic loss for all involved! I know that she would have never wanted this guy in jail...if this guy was considered a "friend".
No further comments.

Let me say this...should be a city ordinance against drinking alcoholic beverages in public/public places. What, they can tell me where I smokea cig in order to keep non smokers from breathing the 2nd hand smoke...but they cant tell idiots where to or where not to get drunk? In order to keep non drinkers from loosing their lives. what too much money for the economy to loose out on..from bondsmen all the way up the ladder. Boy, lawmakers need to pull their thumbs out of their mouths or out of their ass's and do something that will ACTUALLY make a difference
In texas, after 1 beer, you are over the legal limit.
#10 May 29, 2010
The facts have been stated. He was a repeat offender. The state of Texas can not help anyone who does not want the help! How many people does a drunk have to kill before justice is done? I'll bet you wouldn't feel this way if it was your loved one who was killed! ie. murdered!
#11 Apr 15, 2011
Thank you for your kind words. You are absolutely right -- it was indeed a tragic loss for all involved and I know that Madhuri would not have wanted that for Chris.
Thanks again.

Let me ask you this, what was a married attorney who was 16 years older than this minor doing allowing him to drive her car after she was intoxicated and obviously having an affair. How is it murder? The charge murder means you have clear intent, or control and have decided to kill someone. The charge DWI means you have no control, you are not in control of yourself because youre intoxicated. Right? Yes he did wrong and deserves to be punished severely. But 40 years? At $60,000.00 a year per inmate dont you think there is something better we can do for those who are suffering from alcohol and drug problems? Or do all you people out there writing and talking trash who have perfect lives and are born with no addictions and never make mistakes prefer he rots and never has a chance for redemption. There still is no clear evidence that he was over the limit. It is in debate whether it is fair to use blood samples since the amount of alcohol expands as time passes. The bottom line is that he was at fault but an Adult who was married and was also an attorney ( morally held at a higher standard) gave the keys to Chris which should clear him of her murder - not to mention the oxymoron that is the murder charge. Come on, all you people out there if this was a movie and you saw how in love these 2 were you would be crying for him, but since your fat asses are at work and have nothing better to do then vent your steam this is what society gets. He didnt murder anyone THEY made a tragic mistake that led to 2 lives being lost, Maduri's and Chris's. He is now in the worst prison unit in Texas with people who chopped people up and buried them in fields. He had addictions that needed help. He wasnt a brutal killer. Please, if youre reading this help Chris. Contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com

LMR Review - Solarbotics BeetleBot
- Login or register to post comments
- by DutchBot
Thanks to the LMR society I was asked to do a review on one of Solarbotics robots. It's a little critter called The BeetleBot. So hold tight, here it comes. Cool!
The BeetleBot started as Jerome Demers high-school science fair project. He built an extremely simple and effective circuit using just a pair of cleverly wired switches, two batteries and two motors.
The Beetle zooms around the room, cleverly bouncing off all obstacles using its antenna like bumper switches. Jerome's goal behind this project was to demonstrate how you can achieve complex robot behavior with minimal design and simple parts.
Now check it out and enjoy!
Ah, I love the smell of packages in the morning. Especially when they contain robot parts. So let's see what's inside.
Wow, lot's of nice documentation and booklets, some beetle stickers and a bag with all the components. Very complete.
Nothing needed except 4 aaa batteries. It even has a Solarbotics screwdriver in the box which my son is putting through the test. Sweet.
A nice and shiny beetle base. All holes are predrilled and you just screw on the components. Very suitable for young robot builders since you don't need to solder anything. All fits tight and nice except for 1 screw on each one of the bumper switches. No worries, the other one holds it toghether tightly.
Every step is well documented and pictured. Nothing can go wrong really. The only part where young builders might want to have some help is tapping the holes in the on/off switch. It requires a bit of strenght but once you have the screw in there: easy life.
Motors are mounted with some doublesidedstickytape. The rest is simply screwed to the base. All the wiring is already attached to the motors and the powerswitch.
All that's left is hooking up the wiring and flatten it a bit so the top can be put on. All wires are pre-crimped so you can just plug things in.
And there you go, a lovely BeetleBot and a smiling little dude!
Now how about that! A little wallbouncing Beetle which the kids already love (and me to). Very easy and solid build, I can only say, everyone should have one! It's great for teaching the kids and pretty funny by appearance.
They come in various colors and you have some mean looking ones to! Now if you want one, check: http://www.solarbotics.com/products/k_jb/
A movie will follow, to dark right now for my camera.
nice one :D seriously nice
nice one :D seriously nice one :D
nice one DutchBot. :)
nice one DutchBot. :) probably good starting kit for kids to boost their confidence (via "building" not only putting in batteries...) and get them really interested. i am looking forward to review of some more complicated kit.
Friday-night BeetleBot racing
This looks a perfect starter kit and would pull youngsters into the robotic world "Thumbs Up",
However what about this for a thought (for the more mature or im>mature LMRs)
.......Friday night LMR BeetleBot racing - ie one person receives 10 of these of BeetleBots each with big number attached to flag or wing.... the person would host a live UStream video of the Beetlebots let loose (in a kitchen,ofifice,etc ) each fighting to stay alive and "moving" - last moving bot wins............
......that would be fun to watch and would give a lot of info re "Darwin" survival of the fittest .......what do you say "Punters" ?
nice ideeas comes so
nice ideeas comes so suddenly... :D
Wow, the fella is fast! :D
Wow, the fella is fast! :D Would someone please give it a distance sensor?
Thanks for the videos as well, DutchBot :) This review is the reference from now, we will get more :)
Nice reveiw
Lot's of good colour photos for the video impaired.
Where are the legs?
Hello DutchBot,
Why did you not put the legs? The 6 pieces of 8 gauge black wire that is bend into leg shape.
Thanks for the review!

Isola di Pantelleria Things to Do
Lago di Venere
Lago di Venere is a lake on the island that can clearly be seen from the air as you take off and land. It is a lovely emerald green from a distance, but when you come up close to it you'll find that it is a volcanic lake. The temperature in certain parts of the lake can go up to 50°C if I recall correctly. You'll have to be a brave soul to sit in...more
Around the island (part 4)
There are many other things to see and do on Pantelleria, like take a boat ride around the island, or visit the natural marine caves, sun on the calm beaches, snorkel or dive in the coves, or take a walk through the fields of zibibbo grapes. Along the way, most of the houses you'll see blend in with the colors of the island, but there are some...more
Around the island (part 3)
The rock formation that leads from the town of Tracino towards the sea looks like an elephant's trunk, and they call it "elephant trunk arch."more

Good for: Couples
Isola di Pantelleria Nightlife
Pantelleria is a quiet island. Perhaps your hotel might organise evening activities. Or you might be there as a guest of some VIP at one of the exclusive dammusi, so therefore entertainment is taken care of.
I would suggest though, keeping your eyes and ears open for some of the more interesting village fairs. For example while we were there, a nearby village held a wine "sagra"... so there was wild merry-making in the village, or so we heard. They actually sold tickets to get in and the queues were so long we decided to go back to the hotel to have dinner before re-attempting, but sloth got the better of us and we never left the hotel again :-)
Alternatively, in Pantelleria town itself (where the port is) are a couple of discos where young people go. Never found out where these were exactly but they do exist.
Isola di Pantelleria Transportation
Hydrofoil to Pantelleria
We got to Pantelleria from Trapani in Sicily by hydrofoil. The trip takes about 2 and a half hours and you need to buy your tickets in advance. Sadly I thought it would have been more fun. It was highly uncomfortable and I felt a bit more than woozy, because the seas were quite choppy as well. You have to sit down at all times on a hydrofoil for...more
Rent a scooter
At the height of summer, everything becomes more expensive and this includes the price of renting a little scooter. At €50 per day, we thought it a bit excessive but there you go. Neither my husband nor I had ever had to drive a scooter before (pillion didn't count), so it was an adventure just getting started. In Italy you're fine to drive one of...more
How to reach Pantelleria
You get there either by plane from Palermo or by boat from Trapani (about four hours). When arriving by boat, you come into the port where the town of Pantelleria is located.more
Isola di Pantelleria Shopping
Capers are big business on Pantelleria. Personally I hate eating them, though I'd happily add them to salads and sauces when cooking for others. We went to the place where it all happens on the island... a Co-op in a really out of the way place near Scauri. It is not much more than a shack. The factory was opening the week we were leaving so we...more
Zibibbo wine
The zibibbo is a famous wine from Pantelleria. It is sweetish... and the locals here drink gallons of it. At the hotel where we stayed there was a free flow of zibibbo during meals, which was a lot of fun.more
Isola di Pantelleria Hotels1 Hotels in Isola di Pantelleria
Isola di Pantelleria Local Customs
Visiting Pantelleria, you cannot avoid to taste and to bring back home the capers that are cultivated on the island.
You can easily find them all around.
Isola di Pantelleria What to Pack
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: In the summer, very light clothes obviously. However, do remember that Pantelleria is also a very, very windy place. In the evenings temperatures can dive... and more often than not you'll need at least a cardigan to stay warm outside.
Also very important to have those beach slippers to protect your feet from sharp rocks (no sand around remember?).
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: Lots of plasters (band aids) if you're going swimming. The whole island is surrounded by volcanic rock... you'd be hard pressed to find flat places on which to perch yourselves. You are guaranteed at least a few scratches and bruises making your way in and out of the water.
Loads of sun block is important... that meditteranean sun will roast you.
Miscellaneous: Mosquito repellant - oh yes!Related to:
- Beaches
Isola di Pantelleria Off The Beaten Path
OK, this is not really a tip... more like a what to do if you're wasting time waiting for your ferry which is an hour late.
I wandered around the wharf for a bit, and made friends with some Greek fishermen who were waiting for their buyers. They had just hauled some sea sponges... make that LOTS of sea sponges! They gave me one which was smelly and eeky... but now that it's dried up is really quite nice. Not that I'm using it for baths mind you.... it's just sitting pretty in my lounge.Related to:

Carey Mercer formed the band Frog Eyes, which includes he and his wife Melanie Campbell, in 2001, and we were more than proud to release their 2010 album, Paul's Tomb: A Triumph. The album was soon a long listed nominee for the Polaris Music Prize and is his most current musical outlet. However, Mercer has been a constant force in the music world since 1996 and he formed groups such as Blackout Beach and Swan Lake.
Mercer had been working on his newest album as Frog Eyes titled Carey's Cold Spring since 2010 and has chosen to self release the record through Bandcamp. In the last few years Mercer's personal life changed dramatically with the passing of his father, someone extremely close to him not only personally but also musically. Before the record was finished, he had played the last track, "Claxxon's Lament", acoustically for his father who was then in a hospice and in his final stages of life.
The emotionally forceful song attained a new significance according to Mercer, who explains:
"I sat by him and sang it; I sang it really well, of course, because I had the sense that it was the last song he would hear, not that there was any evidence he could actually hear, but still, it was the last song that went into his ears. I also sang it loud, because even though a hospice is supposed to be quiet, I wanted it to mean something, and sometimes volume creates its own meaning."
He soon found himself recording the song to be the last track on his new album. But after, Mercer found out more important news:
"Two days after I green-lit the final mixes of the record, I got a call from a doctor who told me that I have throat cancer. I've been really hesitant about including this, going back and forth, but I have decided to include this information: illness is nothing to be ashamed of, but it is a big thing, a thing that impacts a life and forces changes on the way, for example, a songwriter releases her or his product. So I release this from a place where it's hard to say if I will be on the road to promote it. This is why I have chosen to control the release myself and put it out through the limited channels available to me right now."
Mercer explains the album is not only built from personal experiences but also from the what he saw over the last three years while recording including riots, storms, mass protests, and more. He describes the record is partly "deeply fearful, almost paranoid, the sound of a person grinding his or her teeth in the night. But just a part of it. It's also the sound of the birds in the morning, I hope".
Read more words from Carey and pre-order Frog Eyes new album, Carey's Cold Spring out October 7th on his Bandcamp page, here. There, you can stream the powerful last track, "Claxxon's Lament", or listen to it above.
This afternoon Stereogum premiered the new, animated video for Frog Eyes' "The Sensitive Girls" by London-based, Russian artist Marsha Balaeva. For Balaeva, "what attracted [her] most was the theme of urban gloom and despair, where everything you look at is palpably wrong and menacing, yet fascinating in some way."
The animation itself is fully hand-drawn and is made from just under a thousand drawings in ink and pencils. This was the first animation project Balaeva has done in color. At the beginning of the collaboration, Carey Mercer outlined his vision of this song, a mixture of "street despair", faux-religious imagery, and the dream of fleeing dark places. This loose outline gave her the main theme for the storyline. He also came up with the finishing sequence, when the bird is flying out into the light of a crystal pyramid.
The majority of the city backdrops are based on actual streets and buildings of Liverpool, Manchester and London. A lot of the characters and objects can be traced back to various religious cults and practices, like the dog with the pins. In Kongo, wooden figurines of dogs and men were used by 'baganga' (healers) to perform rituals, and if themagic was successful a nail was added to it, so the most powerful objects were studded with nails.
For more information on Marsha Balaeva's artwork, please visit visit her site here.
One of our favorite Canadian music channels, AUX.TV, recorded a great in-depth interview with Carey Mercer in which he discusses music, poetics, and where Frog Eyes fits in the artistic spectrum. The second video features an incredibly moving, acoustic version of "Violent Psalms." Both videos are part of AUX.TV's interview and performance series "What You See Is What You Get," and you can see those and more here.
Carey Mercer is best known as the songwriter and vocalist of the band Frog Eyes. However, Mercer also releases solo recordings as Blackout Beach and is one third of the Canadian supergroup Swan Lake. Although Frog Eyes are widely known for their explosive live shows, Swan Lake has never once performed live, and Blackout Beach has played in public just one time. This live album, titled Live at the Orange Hall is a document of Blackout Beach's only live performance and can be purchased via bandcamp for just $2.99.
Paul's Tomb: A Triumph, the Dead Oceans debut from Victoria, British Columbia's Frog Eyes has been included on the long list for the 2010 Polaris Prize. Congratulations to Carey Mercer and the band for this most excellent achievement. See the rest of the Polaris Prize long list here.
Frog Eyes are currently on tour and recently added a stretch of dates with Japandroids for later this fall. The Frog Eyes live show must not be missed. Here are the full dates.

We're planning a fairly complete kitchen remodel and are trying to figure out how to make living through it a little easier. The main issue is the floor needs to be re-tiled, so the old cabinets need to come out first. Is it possible to leave the countertop with the sink in place, set on sawhorses? There will probably be a period of time between the floor being tiled and the new cabinets ready to be installed, and the thought of living without any countertop or sink is a little daunting. The bathroom sinks are so tiny you can't even wash a coffee cup in them.
I re-modeled my baths, laundry and kitchen last year. We lived in the house throughout the re-model. The crew couldn't do this because of that...etc. I think, in retrospect that I could have bought a fairly late model 25' Airstream and lived in it and netted out at the same cost, due to the co-ordination hassles. My suggestion is put a sink in somewhere that you can use, move the refrigerator and stay out of the way of the crew. It will end up being cheaper, better and sooner done if you can stay out of the way.
I remodeled our kitchen myself a few years ago - it took nearly four months. We did not move out, but I put in a lot of time planning.
For example, flooring (hardwood) replacement was done only just before cabinet installation so as to not lose cabinets. Thus we lived with cabinets and a sink until quite late.
I did loosen the lower cabinets from the wall early on so that I could tear up the original floor and take care of any squeaks, etc.
Did not remove the sink and dishwasher, which were to be moved, until quite late.
Our old and also new microwave (GE Advantium) also is a small convection oven so we could coook in that (on the dining room table) after the old range had to go. We also had a small toaster oven.
I removed the upper cabinets earlier than one might think to allow patching and painting.
I would never have even considered laying the new hardwood early on because of risk of damage.
I think I kept the old range available to my wife for all but a few weeks at the end.
Things I did early included replacing an exterior sliding door with a single door; ceiling and wall repairs; lighting installation; removing a load-bearing wall; etc, etc.
Again flooring was done only a few days before cabinet install.
Kitchen turned out looking like I knew what I was doing and except for getting dust throughout the house, by wife was elated and I saved probably $10K in labor and Trailer Rental fees.
Best of luck!
We washed our dishes in the tub when we redid our kitchen and were without a kitchen sink for about a month. We moved all of our kitchen stuff, fridge, and microwave into the room next to it (office) and were all right without a stove or kitchen sink.
If I were you I would get everything out of the kitchen all at once-- it will make the work so much easier and possibly faster.
We were without a sink for 2-1/2 months, though the cabinets and appliances were in almost a month sooner. We used a lot of paper plates, and washed dishes in the bathroom sink (we have a long vanity).
We cooked a lot on the grill, and used a crock pot and rice cooker a lot. We also had an electric griddle. We didn't eat any more microwaved food than usual (vegetables, mostly). A couple of times I borrowed a neighbor's oven - until I learned to cook pizza on the grill.
It helped that we were on vacation for a week while the kitchen was out of commission.
If your goal is to get the contractors in, get the job done, pay them, and leave your home, the best route might be is to stay out of the area being remodeled. Find another place to use water. The bathtub, maybe. Maybe contractors can run you a temporary water line. But really, if you set up a temporary kitchen, it may not be soo bad. Like camping, but with electricity. You have your base, but the outhouse with running water is elsewhere. The appliances mentioned have been a godsend for us during remodel. Boiled eggs in the rice cooker. Ate a lot of salads. We're finishing up ours but the toaster oven is still in full time use.
I don't think you or the contractors will be happy 'occupying' the same space during the remodel.
We're currently going through a remodel while living in the house. They had to tear everything out of the kitchen. For a price, many contractors will offer to set up a temporary sink for you in another room. We decided against that and instead bought two wash tubs. We use one to collect dirty dishes and the other to wash dishes in our utility sink. We were extremely fortunate that one of our old half-width cabinets just barely fit next to the utility sink, giving us a place for a dishrack.
Also, I'm sure you could ask to keep some of your old cabinets for a makeshift kitchen (and cover with plywood if necessary).
One other piece of advice -- if you're going to be without a stove, consider making a bunch of food ahead of time and freezing it. It is so worth the effort! We're saving money by not eating out/getting take out. And, we're not having to suffer through as many microwaveable meals.
Plan on using a GE Advantium Microwave/Convection Oven (or similar) over your range... buy it early and use for cooking on the dining room table or similar location...

WAIT!!! Many people have suggested leaving the kitchen sink and maybe dishwasher in place until the last minute. We did that, and it was a huge mistake! We waited until the day before the cabinets were being delivered to pull the kitchen sink /dishwasher cabinet out. Behind the cabinet we discovered a leak. It was slow and obviously had been going on a long time. We had gone into the crawl space under the subfloor to look around before the remodel and there was no evidence of a leak. We had to cancel the install until we could get it repaired. It took a week to get the damages repaired. Instead of being without a kitchen for 2 weeks, we ended up without for nearly four. I've since read that this is a very common occurrence.
I used the kitchen remodel as an excuse to get the laundry sink I always wanted. I did NOT want to do dishes in the bathroom.
@jellytoast- ooooh, a laundry sink! I'd love one, but unfortunately the laundry room is being renovated at the same time. Two layers of tile floor have to be taken up and new ones put down. That's what's scaring me, pulling out old cabinets and putting in new ones wouldn't bother me too much, it's just that all that's not being replaced in the kitchen are the windows (I already did that).
My on-going kitchen remodel involved tearing down a load-bearing wall and installing a steel beam. The load-bearing wall had cabinets with the oven, and I've been without oven since January (thats 6 1/2 months - saltidawg how did you do it in just 4 months?). My remodel is slow because we serve as our own general, we both work more than full time, and we try to do as much of the remodeling as we can.
We have survived so far, and perhaps my best tip is to go buy an electric frying pan. I bought one in the first week (a pretty cheap model) -- and that has become our preferred cooking tool. I even prepared panna cotta for 25 using that $20 electric frying pan! Wish I'd thought to buy a convection or adventium, really miss my oven.
My somewhat OK set up is distributed through four adjacent rooms as follows:
1. Laundry room is clean-up station - we wash dishes in the laundry room sink and set them to dry on the counter where we fold laundry; 2. a small bathroom is the coffee-making station and home to the electric kettle; 3. game room houses the refrigerator, a conference room table with a microwave, and serves as a food prep area; and adjacent bedroom has a small table with the camp stove and another table for eating.
In preparation for this ordeal, I emptied two closets, one serves to hold the food, the other one houses dishes, pots and pans, etc.
The frustrating part of cooking in this "kitchen" is trying to find things, and wasting time walking between the rooms. Kids wash dishes (occasionally), and put dishes away in what appears to be random locations. Drinking bottled water and using paper plates has helped reduce the dish load.
I'm really tired of peanut butter sandwiches, but we've largely avoided the microwave meals. I think we'll be back in a working kitchen by October. (yes, 8 - 9 months out of the kitchen). But that day of a new and lovely kitchen will eventually come, and our tested marriage seems to be hanging in there..
"saltidawg how did you do it in just 4 months?" I was the GC, the carpenter, the plumber, the designer, and after 49 years of marriage including 24 years in the Submarine Service, I know how to say, "Aye, aye, Dear!"
We had the freestanding range available all but a few days. We had a toaster oven, we had the GE Advantium microwave/convection oven. We could manage meals for all but a few days... that said, we did eat out a lot... fast food and other.
But we could grill a steak on the Patio Gas Grill, cook burgers, chicken Parmesan, spaghetti, whatever almost the whole time.
The toaster oven may have been on the dining room table alongside the advantium. The range may have been pushed out from the wall a few feet (limited by 220 Volt outlet.) The coffee pot moved seemingly on a daily basis.
Part of my construction planning as far as sequence was to try to allow us the option of cooking at home for virtually the whole four months.
I keep a clean, nay immaculate work site, but I did not have to remove tools from the work site each evening and I did have the option of leaving the occasional wire hanging from a box for the evening. And my (English) Bulldogs enjoyed working with me. ;-)
PS Actually I learned to say, "aye, aye, SIR." on the submarines. My wife taught me the, "Aye, aye, DEAR." part.

It just got worse, my wife decided while the kitchen is being renovated, we may as well remodel the master bath, since the workers will be here anyways, it will save money. So now, not only do we have to move out of the kitchen, we have to move out of the master bedroom, into the guest room.
The thing is, even a relatively clean construction site is still....a construction site. Plaster dust, sawdust, random wood shavings, debris from whatever boxes are coming in and out, the odd nails on the floor, that gritty stuff that tile backing seems to shed, bags of debris waiting to be carted away....
If the cabinets are out, you'd have to be hauling dishes, cutting boards, whatever, down to the sink in a milk crate or similar and traversing the site day after day. You'll want a dedicated pair of site shoes (I use Crocs because they're washable) to make the journey. Is it worth the hassle?
We didn't have the option to keep anything hooked up in the old kitchen, so our temporary kitchen (microwave, toaster oven, mini-fridge, coffee maker) is on one floor and the sink/bathtub on another. I wash dishes in the bathtub in a series of plastic dishpans and drain them on a board balancing over the edges of the tub.
It's a true PITA but much better than walking through the site every day.
Your mileage may vary...

Chris Christie is Republican with highest favorability rating in the party
**Written by Doug Powers
While it's true that Chris Christie is the Republican with the highest favorability rating in the party, I should mention that the party I'm talking about is the Democratic Party. Watch out, Hillary:
(CNSNews.com) – According to a newly released Gallup poll, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is the most-favored Republican and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is the least-favored–among Democratic respondents.
The poll sought to measure the favorable/unfavorable sentiments toward five Republicans Gallup believes may run for president in 2016.
Conducted June 1-4. the survey asked: [P]lease say if you have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of these people–or if you have never heard of them." It then listed New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, and Kentucky Senator Rand Paul.
Among Democrats, Christie had the most favorable responses. Fifty-four percent of Democrats said they had a favorable view of Christie, compared to 21 percent who had a favorable view of Rubio, 17 percent who had a favorable view of Ryan, 16 percent who had a favorable view of Paul, and 11 percent who had a favorable view of Cruz.
How can you generate headlines like this and not be liked among Dems?
That might have earned Christie an angry and jealous "step off" email from Chris Matthews, but otherwise Christie's stock among Democrats keeps going up.

Once upon a time, I wouldn't venture into a Cracker Barrel because I just assumed it was for NASCAR fans and Yankee Candle lovers only, but my shameful weakness for sausage gravy has forced me to reconsider in recent years. But even when you take into account the way the novelty gift store subsidizes the food and makes it absurdly cheap, it's hard to understand its popularity—it seems always to be crowded, no matter how remote the highway exit it's situated by or how confusing its tractor-trailer-accommodating parking lots are to navigate. It seemed a reminder of the reality of so-called red-state America, of just who it was that voted for George W. Bush when I couldn't think of a people in my (extremely limited) acquaintance who had done so. Eating there seems unpleasantly like an expression of a political preference, an endorsement of the commercial exploitation of a folksy corniness (much like G.W. Bush's) that serves to mask an underlying xenophobia for everyone involved. There's a fireplace and a checkerboard with rocking chairs in front, and a little wood-block puzzle on every table and nary an immigrant in sight. No, this is "real" America, with the dopey Christian tchotchkes on sale to prove it.
So I can't really say I was shocked to discover, from this FT article today about upcoming Supreme Court discrimination cases, that a black ex-employee has filed a suit against Cracker Barrel (apparently aptly named), alleging he was fired when he complained about racial discrimination on the job. You would never ever expect, of course, that a company that rose to prominence on the Interstate-exit-restaurant scene by promoting itself as anti-urban through a variety of old-timey tropes meant to stir nostalgia for an era when "country" and "down-home" values reigned, would be suspected of racial discrimination. It's not like its whole marketing approach seeks to evoke an America in which minorities don't exist or anything.
Sad news to report and you might as well hear it straight from the horse's (or editor's) mouth below… I'm floored by this not just because ND was/is such an important publication but also because it was such a quality publication, and I'd still say that if I didn't occasionally contribute there. It will be sorely missed. From the reasons that the editors state for closing (higher postal rates, less print ads), it makes me wonder if a stronger online presence would have saved them.

McClatchy Newspapers (MCT)
Beneath the somber tales of shrinking revenues and staff cuts is an even more somber reality about the news business: The nearly 2-century-old marriage between consumer advertising and journalism is on the rocks.
In the United States the union dates from the advent of the penny press in the 1830s, when newspaper owners realized that by slashing what they charged readers they could send their circulations soaring and get rich off advertising sales. News found a durable source of funding, and manufacturers hitched a ride into the homes of the burgeoning masses of American consumers.
That era is now ending, not because the public no longer needs news or because people mistrust news any more than they always have - but because new technologies are churning out better ways to reach customers who are shopping for cars, jobs or homes.
The result is a calamity for the news business. Newspapers get the greatest attention, but all news media are being shaken hard, and the luxuriant growth of online news initiatives shouldn't be mistaken for a rebirth: Most of those sites are still burning through their start-up money and haven't figured out how to sustain themselves except by praying to advertisers who, it seems plain, will never be back with anything like the money they once lavished on news.
Funny, ain't it? Just peep Howie Klein's article reprinted at Alternet about bassist/candidate Mickey Huckabee's appropriation of a Boston song, much to the dismay of the band's leader/songwriter.

SCO OpenServer
Manufacturer: The Santa Cruz Operation
Phone: 1-800-SCO-UNIX
URL: http://www.sco.com/
Price: $19.00 US (media)
Reviewer: Ken Collins
Compulsive operating system collectors can now add another partition to their hard disk and another OS to their stockpile. The Santa Cruz Operation (SCO, http://www.sco.com/) has a new strategy for attracting users to its OpenServer Desktop System. SCO is giving it away for free, or at least nearly for free.
Though the company could claim 40% of the Unix market share a couple of years ago, it's now facing serious pressure from Windows NT and of course, Linux. Because the OS is priced similarly to NT, it has traditionally been out of the reach of students, educators and the idle curious. While there are a vast number of commercial applications running on OpenServer (it's often employed as a base for retail database systems, thus its market share), the company obviously wants to interest a new generation of developers and administrators.
To further its aims, SCO has made its single-user license free. The catch is that you still have to purchase the media. The OpenServer package, which includes a CD-ROM, a boot disk, a disk of drivers and a small pamphlet costs $19.00 US. If you're used to downloading your distributions at no cost, that's not an option, but SCO has also been handing out their OS gratis at trade shows. You won't be able to download the source anywhere. OpenServer may be free, but it's not "open". Additionally, the single-user license is intended for educational use only. If you want to run OpenServer as part of your business, you're supposed to purchase a license.
While you're at the SCO site signing up for your license (http://www.sco.com/offers/index.html), you might also want to take a look at the on-line documentation for the installation procedure (http://www3.sco.com/Products/freeunix/suppinst.html) and the hardware compatibility handbook (http://scaffold.sco.com/chwp/owa/hch_search_form). Unfortunately, the pamphlet included with the installation disks only includes the following instructions for first-time users: "Boot from the supplied boot floppy and follow onscreen instructions."
While not overly difficult, the installation is far from intuitive. In fact, the first screen will throw all but the most adventurous installers. It asks for your installation media and offers a number of options, but gives no indication that you can install from an IDE CD-ROM. If you use the SCSI CD-ROM setting, follow the on-line documentation directions for the other settings and if the drivers are on the disk, it should recognize your drive. The rest of the process is familiar to Linux users. You can select portions of the software to install (including a lot of support for Novell networking), and you can use fdisk to partition your drive.
While you're going through this process, OpenServer is merrily overwriting your master boot record and wiping it free of LILO. After some serious wrangling, I gave up on getting the OS to cooperate with Linux. With LILO installed in my Linux partition and OpenServer in its own half of the drive, I couldn't find a boot loader that would get SCO to start up, nor could I coax OpenServer into recognizing my Linux partition from its boot prompt. For the time being, I let OpenServer have its way with my system, fdisking back and forth when I needed one or the other, but serious dual users will have to come to terms with this problem. It may be a job for V Communications' System Commander.
Once inside the OpenServer environment, you're given the opportunity to log on as root or proceed to an SCO-centric xdm login prompt. If you're wary of X, the system offers as many virtual consoles as you have function keys. However, without bash, tcsh or whatever shell you favor, the console is pretty tedious. OpenServer comes with the Korn shell, the C shell and its own scosh. This means if you're a filename completion junkie or you're fond of browsing your command history with the arrow keys, one of the first things you'll want to do is port the appropriate shell to your system.
The scosh is a world unto itself and deserves some mention. The name seems to suggest that it's a shell, but it's closer to an MVS era menu system. After invoking scosh, it takes over your console or xterm and pops up a calendar, a series of menus and a listing of the current directory. The xterm becomes mouse sensitive, and you can use it or the cursor keys to select from the various options. It presents a fairly complex interface; it provides a front end to navigate the file system, check e-mail, edit files, set permissions, print, create archives and move files around. Even so, SCO's addition to the world's shell archives isn't much of a shell. It does everything it can to keep you away from Unix, and devotees of the elegance and ease of the command line may find scosh an unpleasant and unnecessary feature.

Last and First Frost for Salt Lake Valley Research Back 40 years
This weekend I had some time on my hands. So not only did I track all winter temps that dropped below 10*, going back to 1970, per SL International Weather Data, and found out I am actually a zone 7a per the last 2 decades of temps. I also put a graph together of the first and last frost in Salt Lake Valley going back 40+ years and thought it might be helpful to some of you.
The different color bars indicate decades
The bold black line across each decade indicates the average for that decade
The red line is the running average for the 40 years
The grey shading indicates the 7 days before and after the average frost
Thought you may find it useful, I sure am.
thanks for the graph.. i was thinking of that in
light of the new info from usda on revised growing
zones..here in provo im now in 7b.. wow.. !!
many of my fellow garden enthusiasts have been talking
now what about last/1st frosts..
thanks for this !!!!
I tend to use "marker plants" for zone, before I'd go on temp. values alone. I lived in Albuquerque (zone 7b) for over 10 years, and in Salt Lake for over 25, and I highly doubt one can grow the same things in Salt Lake (or Provo) that easily grow in Albuquerque.
First and last frost dates also make a big difference. My garden in Albuquerque had (at minimum) 4 months longer growing season than my Mother's back in Utah. My usual first killing frost was around Thanksgiving (never had one earlier than Nov 15), and crocus blooming around Valentine's Day, daffs by my birthday in the first week of March (last hard frost usually the first or second week of March). Only had a couple of odd years when we had exceptionally late frosts around April 1 - but even those only killed the most tender of plants.
Stuff I grew as perennials (without any special protection or fussing) in ABQ that I think might be problematic in Salt Lake/Provo Utah; Artichokes, Pineapple sage, bletilla ground orchids, fuzzy kiwi vines, agapanthus, peruvian daffodils, harlequin glorybower tree, rosemary (as a 4' shrub), passion flower vines (incense and cerulea), jasmine vines, lemon verbena, crinums, pistachio trees, desert willow trees (Chilopsis linearis), Mimosa (Albizia julibrissin), Desert Bird of Paradise (these grow wild all over ABQ - Caesalpinia gilliesii), etc.
And when you have 20-30+ foot yuccas all over town, as in the link below, let me know.
I don't mean to be a total "rain cloud" - I just offer this as a "procede with caution" tale.
Here is a link that might be useful: Yuccas in ABQ
On the new Zone map Albuquerque shows as zone 8a. It seems even before the zone change and now they ahve always been a zone warmer than us. Which makes sense why you can't grow the same things here as you can there. While Salt Lake valley's temps are mild we do have a shorter growing season. I think that is due to elevation and latitude.
BTW, my neighbors have a beautiful Mimosa tree and I planted one this year :)

A burglary suspect shot Saturday morning by a Kentucky State Police trooper remains under state police guard at University Hospital in Louisville, where he's listed in serious condition.
Joshua S. Blough, 25, of Big Clifty, was shot in the neck Saturday after police said he turned a weapon toward Trooper Dewan Kelly.
Kelly, a 12-year-veteran with KSP assigned to Post 4, responded at 6:33 a.m. Saturday to the 6000 block of South Wilson Road to investigate a complaint of a burglary in progress, according to a news release.
A Hardin Circuit Court judge approved a motion Tuesday requesting a competency evaluation for an Elizabethtown man facing a murder charge.
Robert J. Tarafa, 26, is accused in the shooting death of Frank Knapp. Elizabethtown police said Tarafa fired nine shots at Knapp using two weapons June 8 at Memorial Apartments.
A grand jury indicted Tarafa on charges of murder, two counts of possession of a handgun by a convicted felon, tampering with physical evidence, two counts of receiving a stolen firearm and second-degree persistent felony offense.
A registered sex offender from Michigan was sentenced Tuesday to 15 years in prison on charges of forcible rape and incest in Hardin County.
David B. Dunnivant, 46, pleaded guilty in July to charges of first-degree rape, incest and tampering with a witness.
A sentencing originally was scheduled for Sept. 25 but later was continued to Tuesday.
Hardin Circuit Judge Ken Howard said the sex offender evaluation found Dunnivant to be a "medium or moderate risk" for future offenses.
A Cecilia man facing charges in connection to a shooting and robberies near the Hardin-Meade County border was arraigned Tuesday via video feed in Hardin District Court.
Steven C. Goodman, 21, was arrested Monday morning at Kentucky State Police Post 4 in Elizabethtown.
A February jury trial is scheduled for a woman accused of receiving stolen property police say was taken from a home where a LaRue County woman was killed.
Belinda R. Martin faces a felony charge of receiving stolen property less than $10,000.
A jury trial in the case was scheduled for Nov. 7, but Hardin Circuit Judge Ken Howard approved Tuesday a motion to continue the trial to Feb. 18.
According to Kentucky State Police, Martin received property taken from a Buffalo residence where Kristie L. Allen was found killed Dec. 30.
A March jury trial is scheduled for an Elizabethtown man accused of abuse and financial exploitation of a parental figure.
Joseph A. Starks, 38, was arrested May 14, 2011, after Elizabethtown police found his Adams Road in "extremely poor condition," according to a citation.
Inside the residence, officers found a bedridden woman who was unable to eat, according to the citation. She was transported to Hardin Memorial Hospital where she was diagnosed with "several serious sores."
An amendment to the state constitution on Tuesday's ballot would protect the right to hunt and fish.
Officials say the amendment, if approved, wouldn't likely change anything related to current hunting and fishing regulations and practices. It is meant to protect residents' ability to participate in the sports, even if organizations one day challenge the idea that Kentuckians should do so.
If passed, the amendment would immediately take effect.
Local dental practices are providing a unique way to empty the bags of Halloween candy without wreaking havoc on the molars and bicuspids of Hardin County children.
Dentists are hosting candy exchanges, in which children give up the treats in return for a reward. Then the sugary snacks are sent to deployed soldiers.
The newly appointed Historic Preservation Commission will start forming its framework later this week.
The group is scheduled to meet at 9 a.m. Thursday inside the Elizabethtown City Council chambers at City Hall, said City Planner Kevin Strader.
Strader said proposed design guidelines for downtown are the primary point of discussion during the meeting.

Pastors' Briefings Events
CUFI's Pastors' Briefings enhance pastors and ministry leaders'
knowledge about Israel, the Middle East, and CUFI.
The Bible commands us to pray for the peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6), to speak out for Zion's sake (Isaiah 62:1), to be watchmen on the walls of Jerusalem (Isaiah 62:6) and to bless the Jewish people (Genesis 12:3). These and many other Bible verses have one overriding message-- as Christians we have a Biblical obligation to defend Israel and the Jewish people in their time of need.
Israel's time of need is now. There is a new Hitler in the Middle East --President Ahmadinejad of Iran -- who has threatened to wipe out Israel and America and is rapidly acquiring the nuclear technology to make good on his threat. If we learned anything from the Holocaust, it is that when a madman threatens genocide we must take him seriously.
During the Holocaust, too many Christians were silent, and we were left to mourn the slaughter of 6 million Jews. Today, Bible-believing Christians must speak up and stand up for Israel. We must act to do whatever we can to protect Israel's 6 million Jews from the second Holocaust.
We must get it right this time. Our faith demands it. The times require it. Silence is not an option. We will be silent no longer.
Please attend a Pastors' Briefing to learn how you can stand up and speak up for the State of Israel and the Jewish people.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used as credit towards that service with that business for an additional three months.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher as credit towards a bungy jump, for another three months.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.

FAQs for the realignment landscape
Originally Published: July 9, 2013By Eamonn Brennan | ESPN.com
As long as you are willing to be general in your use of the word "historic," last week marked a historic change in college sports.
Whether you knew it or not, when you went to bed on June 30, you tucked in and said farewell to a familiar collegiate landscape, one only occasionally and incrementally modified in the past 30 years. When you woke up on July 1, approximately three years of stop-start conference realignment officially became a reality.

Perfect height when extended. The puddle lights are sweet at night. Could not be happier! The only thing missing is the red carpet.

I expected them to be a little more beefy. The cross piece is very sturdy but the side pieces are not made of very heavy material. I believe they will get bent the first time they meet dirt or rock. I would expect something more substantial construction from such a high profile company. If you are looking for something that looks great and has a lot of class then these are a great choice. If you are into serious off roading then maybe not so much.
