Your team is toast
Apr 15, 2010, 2:14 PM EDT
Quite literally, courtesy of an entrepreneur named Josh Fink:
Starting in May, Pangea will roll out ProToast,
a line of toasters – available in every team from the four major sports
– that pops out with the teams logo burned into it. "Our motto is 'Toast
Your Team,'" Fink says.
Fink has big plans for the toast market. He's working on coming up
with FDA-approved magic markers so that kids can color their toast and a
collegiate logo toast product, called UToast, will hit stores in the
I've probably written between 5,000 and 10,000 posts since I started blogging in earnest a few years ago, so I forget a lot of things I've written. There's something in the back of my mind telling me I've blogged about this toaster thing before, but I searched and searched for this one in the various archives of the places I've blogged and I couldn't find it. Maybe it was just a dream and my failure to turn this dream into a reality means I've missed my best chance at riches. Alas.
Anyway, I think that the real market for this thing will be for people to buy the logo toasters of their team's rivals, make bunches and bunches of toast with it, and then use it for taunting purposes at games, not unlike people who bring in the brooms for sweeps or something. "The Dodgers are toast," Giants fans will be saying, quite literally. Jolly clever, that.

If a Yankees toaster pops out slightly-burnt toast, Yankees fans will boo the toaster.
If you are not a toast fan, you cannot relate.

Thanks, Craig. My kid's (a suffering Mets fan) birthday is next week and I think this might be the perfect gift in addition to the two ballgames in KC we are going to see next weekend.

The Top 100 Inspirational Books: 100 - 81
97 - Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance
Even the story of this book's printing is inspirational. It was reportedly rejected by more publishers than any other bestselling book. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is a 17 day philosophical journey across America. The author writes about his emotional trip, shared with two friends and his son Chris, and discusses their conversations on philosophy are what make up the bulk of the book. It is a book about finding yourself in the wake of strong conversation in the most unlikely of places – on a motorcycle.

NASA League History
NASA Background
The North Ayrshire Soccer Association(NASA) came into being in September 1997, when Half a dozen like minded coaches, fed up with winter football, excessive travelling, and an over emphasis on winning got together and with the help and guidance of Eric Young/Richard Wilson (then SFA Community Coach, Kilmarnock FC/North Ayrshire respectively), NASA was born.
The Association is supported by, The SFA Community Programme, KA Leisure and the Scottish Soccer Sevens Development Association, and has as it's motto "First For Kids."
NASA caters for all age groups 7-11 irrespective of race, colour, gender or religion and endeavours to promote sportsmanship and fair play in young footballers at all times.
The Aims of NASA are wide and varied:
• To attract and facilitate increased football participation and development at all levels in North Ayrshire and to provide a positive non-competitive environment for children to play football.
• To promote the ethos of co-operation, respect for others, loyalty, self-discipline and the need for teamwork.
• To develop the skills and fitness of children playing football, irrespective of ability, through the small sided game.
• To encourage personal responsibility at all age groups.
NASA shall endeavour to promote these values and will work closely with any other organisations who have similar aims.
We've teamed up with Genesis Sports to give one lucky club over £1,000 worth of PUMA training wear. Get your name in the hat!

Medallion 1917
i have this Medallion which i found in my grandfather's house. i assume it is from Russia. can anyone estimate what it's worth ? or even if you this kind of Medallion i would be happy to have some details.
My 1st thought was Russian "dogtag" Not sure that's right word, metal that service people wore to identify them, if they were unable to speak(wounded) The 2 flags gave me that idea. Number at top it looks like could identify person. Anything on back of it?
Russians did not wear dog tags, they had a small cylinder with a piece of paper rolled up inside with their details written on it. As the papers were self-inscribed, many did not fill them out as a superstitious hedge against needing them.
I found this out listening to a radio interview with a group in Russia who are doing a volunteer project to recover, identify, and properly inter as many as they can of the tens of thousands of Russian soldiers whose bodies were left unburied in the forests surrounding Stalingrad after the siege in WW2.
It's a token/ badge issued on the occasion of the February Revolution in Russia in 1917. The text reads:
27 II (e.g. February 27, the Roman numerical II denotes February)
Long Live Free Russia
At the time, the Russian Empire used the Julian calendar which was 2 weeks behind the Gregorian calendar.
The badge was most likely made between March 12, 1917 (Feb. 27, 1917) and Nov. 7, 1917 (Oct. 25, 1917). My cursory search for similar tokens on Ebay showed asking prices of $50-$70.

If you had been arrested for the offense then the prosecutor would need to enter a dismissal. However, if an arrest is never made and no citation is ever issued and the prosecutor decides not to pursue the case then he would not need to do anything but close the case internally.

I would let sleeping dogs lie. Currently there is not any official documentation that has ever been filed against you and I assume that you would like it to remain that way. If you file a motion to dismiss, there will in fact be a notation in the clerk's system regarding your case. Should the citation appear and you are summoned to court, hire an attorney and they should be able to get the criminal citation dismissed.
Selected as best answer
An attorney may be able to file a bond motion and if granted you would be able to fight the vop out if custody. Additionally your attorney may file a motion dismissing the vop if it is apparent that there were defects associated with the violation.
7 lawyers agreed with this answer
Florida statutes provide for the ability to buyout your probation at $10 per hour. However, not all Judges will allow for you to exercise this provision of the statute. If the Judge has not already indicated at sentencing that you can buy out your community service, you should contact your attorney and request that a motion be filed to allow you to buyout your community service.

If you are being charged with aggravated assault with a firearm, you need to be speaking with an attorney as soon as possible. I am not here to scare you, but you are quite possible looking at a three year mandatory minimum prison sentence. If you would like to discuss the facts of your case please feel free to contact my office. It is truly imperative for you to have counsel.
6 lawyers agreed with this answer
Always be courteous to the probation officer. If your cousin has papers that the PO needs to see, make sure that she shows them the paperwork. It is always my advice to my clients who are on probation that they should bore their PO to death. You don't want to be the one that they single out.

Admission into the pretrial diversion program is up to the state attorneys office. They are the gate keepers of the program. You should have your attorney contact their office to see if they could refer you back into the program.

You are being charged with three felony charges. By entering a plea to any offense you are subject to deportation. This is considered an aggravated felony as far as immigration consequences are concerned. You need to not only hire a criminal lawyer but you also need to consult with an immigration attorney as well.
4 lawyers agreed with this answer
The max sentence you could get is five years for each third degree felony. In your case that adds up to 30 years. It is not likely you would get sentence for a violation of probation for a dwls but question asked for the max sentence.

Based on some of the names Brian Sabean was rumored to be shopping at the winter meetings, it was hard to figure the Giants would pull off any sort of a deal, let alone one that would actually serve as an upgrade for the team. But when he dealt centerfielder Andres Torres and reliever Ramon Ramirez to the Mets yesterday in exchange for 30 year old Angel Pagan, he did just that. We'll leave the defensive debate for Jack Moore's piece over in FanGraphs ( I threw in my two cents in the comments section). RotoGraphs is fantasy and in fantasy, for position players, it's about the hitting. And offensively speaking, Pagan should fare well in San Francisco and improve the team's leadoff hitting, something they are in desperate need of doing.
There are plenty of similarities when comparing Pagan and Torres — both were late-bloomers who, after years of part-time work, finally got the opportunity to play regularly for their respective teams in 2010. In that year, they each posted career bests in both home runs and stolen bases and provided an offensive spark that few people saw coming. They also both came back down to earth the following season. Expectations were high coming into 2011 and neither delivered the goods.
But there are also numerous differences in their game and in those differences is where Pagan's edge is found. Again, we're talking strictly offensive production here. You may think (as most of us do) that Torres brings a better glove to the table and that may be so. But with the bat, the 30 year old Pagan brings plenty more.
Given the fact that both are leadoff hitters, I immediately turn to their on-base numbers. While Pagan's career .331 OBP is certainly not a mark on which offensive dreams are built, it is a definite improvement over the .318 mark of Torres. Yes, Torres has a better overall walk rate (9.2% vs 7.5%), but his 22.8% strikeout rate helps pull that OBP right back down into the gutter.
Pagan's overall plate discipline is also a staunch improvement than that of Torres. Just look at the comparisons for their contact rate (87.6% vs 77.8%), their SwStr% (5.3% vs 10.0%),and even how often they swing outside the zone (27.2% vs 28.4%). Not only does Torres swing more often overall (45.3% to Pagan's 44.0%), but he's also less successful which makes him a less effective hitter — something you don't like to see in a leadoff guy.
Then there's the speed factor to consider. Both have great speed and have proven to be valuable commodities on the basepaths, but the edge certainly goes to Pagan for his efficiency as he owns a career 78.5% SB percentage to that of Torres which sits at a still respectable, but not as good 74.1%.
Now obviously predicting how each will produce this season can be difficult. There are a world of other factors, both tangible and intangible, that will likely come into play. But if you're just going by the numbers, then the odds of one out-producing the other are certainly in favor of Pagan. And if that holds true, then the rest of the lineup should benefit as well. With the right guys setting the table, the production of players like Buster Posey and Pablo Sandoval should improve and ultimately help the Giants score more runs, a quality they haven't possessed since…well…since the days of Barry.

As the civil war in Syria intensifies, thousands face the specter of starvation. According to Amnesty International, the withholding of food for civilians is being used as a weapon of war by the Syrian government. At least 128 refugees have died at the besieged Yarmouk Camp in Damascus as a result, according to a new report.

LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The report says that thousands
of people still trapped there face a "catastrophic humanitarian crisis."
The organization says that families have been forced to forage for food
in the streets and risk being killed by snipers.
Yarmouk camp, which is estimated to house around 17,000-20,000 Palestinian and Syrian refugees, has seen some of the worst fighting. There were reports of fresh fighting on the edge of the camp last week.
Prayer, fasting and almsgiving.
The camp has been without electricity since April of last year. Most of the hospitals have closed after running out of even the most basic medical supplies.
"Syrian forces are committing war crimes by using starvation of civilians as a weapon of war," Philip Luther, Amnesty's Middle East director says.
"The harrowing accounts of families having to resort to eating cats and dogs, and civilians attacked by snipers as they forage for food, have become all too familiar details of the horror story that has materialized in Yarmouk."
Describing the siege as "collective punishment" of the civilian population, Luther called on the Syrian government to allow humanitarian agencies immediate access to the camp.
Residents told Amnesty that they have not eaten fruit or vegetables for months. At least 60 percent of people in Yarmouk are said to be suffering from malnutrition.
Created as a refuge for Palestinians fleeing the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, Yarmouk became a focus of heavy fighting in Damascus in late 2012 when opposition fighters moved in.
The majority of the 180,000 Palestinians at Yarmouk fled and around 20,000 have been trapped inside since government forces cut it off in July last year.
The United Nations Security Council agreed a resolution calling for all parties involved in the conflict to immediately lift sieges, but this has so far failed to lead to an improvement in the situation of besieged civilians.
The U.N. made some aid deliveries but these were halted when a truce between rebels and pro-government Palestinian militants in the camp broke down.

some postive aspects of my car is probably that it gets me to where i need to go
the negtives .. needs more parts to make it run better.
My Car — the preformance is fairly good i would say... the build quality is fine, it's a unibody .. the exterior colour is a midnight blue, on the inside i have NOS racing seats and the back seats are just blue and orange pedals... the cost of this vehicle was 1200 to buy straight out but then i had to put 1400 into the safety and everything it needed to pass the safety, it does not require an e-test because it's older then 20 years... the fun factor eh!? it certainly is fun to drive, it's super comfortable... GO GET ONE!!!

An original. Easy Restore but works well as is. Parts are easy to find.
This car should be restored. It does have it's flaws that can easily be fixed. For example, the top does need to be replaced. The nice thing is there is a new top in the trunk for someone to replace the old one with.
A Classic — This was a great car in it's day and with some TLC it can be again. Love the fact it has a large trunk and a back seat. Love the fact it's economical and it is a convertible. I love convertibles! =))

Drive anywhere. Parts are cheap.
There is a lot of wind noise with the top up at speed but that's yesterday's technology.
Best Foxbody We've Owned. — This car is a blast to drive. Quick but still uses 87 octane and the AOD is splendid for those who still like to sip a coffee as they drive. We went to a 6000 car cruise in in Mississippi and there were no other cars like this one. 25 mpg at 75mph is hard to beat.

its mustang c'mon
its small so it holds like 3 people comfotably, an doesnt handle well in really wet weather or snow
I Thought The Car Was Really Fun An Really Fast — the 86 mustang lx is a fast car, not very good looking i perfer the 90-93 but still very fast. the worst thing i can say about the car it that it does not handle good in rain or snow. the car it self picked up speed fast an stopped on a dime (as long as the road was dry) the interior was very plain an clothe material but due to its age it was built like a tank for a 24 year old car it didnt have much rust or noises an didnt need alot of work to stay running. over all a super fun car to drive hard in or just cruse with friends

For Better Or Worse, Its My Car! — My Mustang has a built 302 in it and is falling apart. not much else to say. The interior is in shambles, I got it as a gift and it's most definitely a fixer upper. I'll get it to where I want it some day, until then it's going to be my project car.

+ great summer car
- prone to leaking
Great Summer Cruiser — Almost a classic car with great potential. My personal car was the Expo '86 demonstartor which was used to show-case Ford's newest addition to the mustang community, fuel injection. The car only has a few draw packs in todays world. The engines are large (3.8L V6 or 5.0L V8) but their transmissions are not geared well so you are unable to tap into the engines full potential. This leads to lower fuel economy and lower perfomance levels. This is especially so for the V6 w/t auto transmission w/o overdrive. Three gears is not enough and the car sounds like a wounded animal above 130kph (especially with the convertable top). With overdrive or 4spd the car becomes slightly better but the best option is still the 5spd.

Great handling, lots of power, great looks if your a fox body fan, easy to modify
None unless you are not a stick shift driver.
Mustang Gt — I am the second owner of this vehicle and owned it since August of 1997. When I purchased, the car had 77K. It now has 101K There are several upgrades I have done, however new plans have been made for 2014. Brake, transmission, motor upgrades to be completed through the winter.

Menahga School discusses building project
The Menahga School Board agreed Monday that the proposed building expansion project needs more teacher, staff and the community's input before finalizing a layout.
"The more we can discover, the more we keep shifting it around," superintendent Jerry Nesland said.
The new building would sit on the south side of the current building. The plan is to provide adequate gymnasium space with handicap accessibility, a community center and more classrooms.

Ok, so I have been reloading for only abut two years now. I started with .40 S&W and now have moved onto 9mm. Soon I will be reloading not now those, but also .357 Magnum (possibly .38 Special as well) and 30-30 Win. I may also pick start in on .308 eventually, but that's undecided. I know its not a LOT of calibers to reload, compared to some of you, but adding three at one time is kinda a lot, at least for me.
Anyway, I should have probably bought a manual when I first started, but I didn't and intend to now. What are your favorites? Why? I'm looking for completeness, with lots of powders/primers/bullets etc listed. Min/max loads is of course a must. Velocity charts might be nice but for my current purposes not essential.
Also, which ones shouldn't stay away from? Thanks guys.
Always have clean socks.

Lyman is good because it covers several brands and weights of bullets and powders. I have several but I like the Nosler the best, Hornady is good too and I use it for my 6.8 SPC loads. I just bought a new Nosler this year because of the updated powder info. I bought Hornady 2 yrs ago for new caliber info. The reason to update the manuals is so you get the latest and greatest info from the industry and you don't blow anything up.
Remember the battle of Athens, TN!
"Work as if you were to live 100 Years, Pray as if you were to die To-morrow." --Benjamin Franklin
Data wise I really like the Lyman manuals...
Speer seems to be the only one that has data for all my "weird" calibers....
IME, Lyman is the best starter manual, followed by Hodgdon or Speer. But they're all good.
Many folks do not recommend using older manuals, but if you pick up a few from the 80s and 90s, before they were "lawyerized" it makes interesting reading. (Not for use, mind you, just for reading)
Max loads seem to go down 2-3 percent every time a new class graduates from law school!
Of course, we all know there is no connection!
I keep the Lyman 49th and the newest Hornady. I have a couple data sheets from Montana Powder Co and a Lyman Cast Bullet manual.
I like sierra for producing accuracy loads as they make the best accuracy for the price bullets out there in my opinion. Their data seems to be preety good in reflecting performance im getting in a given firearm.
Older calibers i like the older manuals. Speer has some of the best old school loads.
If you use hornady for hunting gotta have one of their manuals.
The only one i kinda dont like is the barnes manual dont care for their bullets much either. Personal pref.
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
"I crapped my pants to avoid the draft!!" -Ted Nugent
My personal favorite is Nosler #6 it is superb though a little outdated seeing as they have #7 out now.
Lyman 49 is a great one as well, I double check all my data from Nosler with them.
Not impressed with my Hornady #9 I has hoping to get some 208gr A-Max data for my 30-06 and my friend's 300 WSM but they don't list it for those! How they could list it for the 308 but not the 30-06 is beyond me. They also pissed me off only listing 100 year old Mauser pressure loads for the 6.5x55, that is my favorite hunting rifle and mine like many is a modern action fully capable of modern pressures. And to top it all off they do not list accuracy loads like Nosler/Lyman/Sierra...etc do, I have always found that to be a very helpful tool. I won't be buying Hornady #10 for sure, love their bullets but hate their manual.
There is no need to buy a manual with so much free data and information available from the manufactures. Just go online and check for free downloads. Manufacturers will also send you free manuals listing their products. If I were going to recommend one manual it would probably by Lyman. My question is are you only interested in producing a safe round to shoot or are you interested in accuracy. If you just want a safe round, then just pick a load and stick with it. If you care where the bullet hits then that will require many hours of testing numerous bullets, powder & primer combinations for a particular gun. For that you will be well served by obtaining all the loading data you can.

The Brooklyn girl's body was discovered on Gerritsen Beach on Jan. 6.
She had attended the Academy for Young Writers in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She disappeared two days before her body was found.
Information on Ferdinand's lawyer wasn't immediately available.

Beef Brisket
Posted on February 16, 2014
Beef Brisket served with Mashed Cauliflower is easy to make and a favorite Paleo dinner in our family.
Growing up I loved the brisket that my Bubby made. It was melt in your mouth amazing. My mother also made an incredible brisket. Now it's my turn to take a whirl at Beef Brisket –the perfect Paleo dinner entree.
Since I started eating red meat religiously a couple of years ago (rather than every now and then) I have watched my iron levels […]
Mushroom Masters: Herb Stuffed Mushrooms
Posted on September 26, 2011
I was recently invited to develop an appetizer recipe for the Mushroom Masters, a global competition that helps celebrate National Mushroom Month (September). Since I love mushrooms, and they are so easy to prepare gluten free and Paleo, I jumped at the chance to participate.
For the competition, I created the recipe for these Herb Stuffed Mushrooms –they make a lovely gluten free appetizer for a cocktail party or nice nosh for a gluten free brunch. While this convenient finger food looks […]
Paleo Mushroom Soup
Posted on February 27, 2011
Tonight is the Oscars and we're having a nice little party over here (as usual). I'll be serving this super quick and easy gluten free Mushroom Soup in little shot glasses. As you can probably tell by now, pretty much any event is an excuse for me to have people over and cook healthy gluten free food.
I frankly could not really care who wins what awards tonight. I just like to hang with my posse and have good eats. In […]
Thai Vegetable Soup: Everyday Chef Challenge
Posted on September 15, 2010
I'm thrilled to be a part of Pacific Natural Foods' Everyday Chef Challenge! For the first round of the competition, $5 Dinners, Aggie's Kitchen, Herbivoracious, A Savory Nest and I will be using a "secret" ingredient along with one of Pacific Natural Foods' broth products *.
The secret ingredient for this round? Mushrooms. I used shiitake, though any type will work for the recipe below. And I have chosen to use their Organic Vegetable Broth.
Thai Vegetable Soup

Grilled Portabella Mushrooms
Posted on August 9, 2010
We're back in town after an amazing vacation and I just can't get enough grilled veggies. These grilled portabella mushrooms are my husband's favorite.
I've been grilling everything though –zucchini, broccoli and lots of chicken. I'll be posting a recipe for grilled broccoli before summer's end. My grill is getting a really good workout these days!
Grilled Portabella Mushrooms
3 large portabella mushrooms
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon celtic sea salt
Clean mushrooms and cut off stems
Rub mushrooms with olive oil
Grill 4-5 minutes on each side

Rosh Hashanah Recipes
Posted on September 17, 2009
Rosh Hashanah is tomorrow at sundown and although I'm a tad behind in my planning, we are getting ready. Thus far, I have put together the below menu. I've been perusing Claudia Roden's The Book of Jewish Food for additional ideas, as she is one of my favorite cookbook authors. Of all time.
Although I will not be making the challah that is listed below, I thought others might enjoy using this recipe for the holiday. I think the recipe […]
Raw Kale Shiitake Salad
Posted on June 30, 2009
The other night I went to a fabulous event in Boulder hosted by Bauman College. During this evening one of the graduates from Bauman's chef program did a great cooking demo for a raw kale salad with shiitake mushrooms (it had a number of other ingredients as well).
The next day, I was determined to make my a version of my own. Before that evening, I had not thought of eating raw mushrooms, however, after tasting the Bauman salad, […]
Salmon with Mushrooms and Red Pepper Sauce
Posted on December 9, 2008
Mushrooms are one of my favorite foods. I bought some recently on a trip to the store, though I had no idea what would become of them.
The next day I took out one of my favorite cookbooks, A Cook's Book of Mushrooms and began to flip through the pages. I found a great recipe, made a few changes (replacing sugar with stevia, etc.) and whipped it up for dinner. Although it looks complicated and has a few steps, this recipe […]
Chili Chicken
Posted on March 25, 2008
I have discovered a great new website, myfeasts.com. I found it through tastespotting.com, my all time favorite site. If you ever find yourself in a "dinner quandary," I highly recommend a visit to tastespotting; the photos are gorgeous and provide much meal planning inspiration!
Alas, I digress, this post is about myfeasts.blogspot.com. The site is a bit of a mystery, as I could not find an "about" page. Was I just missing it? Or is […]
Stuffed Mushrooms
Posted on March 11, 2008
Gluten-Free Girl recently announced she is with child.
Out here in Colorado, I have big news as well. Our pet house-bunny was neutered today. After humping every stuffed animal and slipper in the house, we took him to the vet only to discover that contrary to what the Humane Society had told us when we adopted him from their shelter, all of his reproductive capacities were fully intact.
Now, I know this is not the usual subject matter around here and it […]
Yellow Split Pea Soup with Smoked Paprika
Posted on March 8, 2008
When my husband takes the boys up to the mountains for a night or two, first I call Martha for a hike. Then, I go into soup mode.
For me, soup is all about simplicity –vegetables and protein in a one pot meal. I make soup for dinner and often end up eating it for breakfast and lunch the next day. My husband cringes when I tell him this; he has a strong dislike of leftovers, and has not yet discovered […]


text: 336 FXUS64 KMAF 271100 AFDMAF AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MIDLAND/ODESSA TX 600 AM CDT Fri Mar 27 2015 .DISCUSSION... See 12Z aviation discussion below. && .AVIATION... Mostly clear skies and light southwest winds the next 24 hours. && .PREV DISCUSSION... /ISSUED 315 AM CDT Fri Mar 27 2015/ DISCUSSION... Light winds, clear skies and cool temps tonight with surface high pressure in place. Dry NW flow aloft will continue today with an upper trough to the east and upper ridging to the west. At the surface, lee troughing will extend southward through eastern NM today and downsloping SW winds at the surface will become more established areawide. As a result, afternoon high temperatures will rebound to the upper 70s and 80s. Upper ridging (to the west) and 850mb thermal ridge will shift eastward Saturday, allowing temps to warm to the upper 80s to near 90 across the CWA. Could see the same for Sunday, however models suggest a cold front may affect highs depending on timing of the northerly wind shift. As of now, the front looks to enter northern zones Sunday evening so we have a good chance of at least warming into the 80s most areas and 90s south near the Rio Grande. Will continue to monitor the arrival time of the front for any adjustments to the highs in future forecast packages. Conditions will be slightly cooler on Monday. Still not expecting any precip with the initial frontal passage however an eastward moving upper disturbance (advertised by the GFS and ECMWF) may provide some support for thunderstorm development Monday night and Tuesday. Confidence is increasing regarding thunderstorm chances but still a little uncertain of the outcome so will continue with fairly low PoPs for now. Beyond Tuesday, dry conditions and above normal temperatures return under zonal flow aloft. && .MAF WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES... NM...NONE.

Choose a piece of granite long/tall enough to sit about 1-1/2' above the height of your round stone wall, and at least 12" wide. Any less will be difficult to split in half.
To begin, divide the granite in half with a pencil and square. Trace the pencil line with the diamond blade grinder all the way around the piece of granite. Scoring the granite creates a control joint for splitting. Drill a hole every few inches about 3-4 inches deep along the scored line with the carbide drill bit. Pouring water on the granite while drilling makes the cutting process easier and reduces the wear and tear of the carbide bit.Place the feathers and wedges into the waiting spaces and hit them with your stone hammer until the granite splits. Hit the wedges equally so the stone splits evenly across.

Wearable technology was dominant at this year's International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) , and MWC was no exception to this trend. New versions of favorites, such as the Samsung Gear (three new products were released: the Gear 2, the Gear 2 Neo and the Gear Fit), shared the limelight with new wearables like Pebble Time Steel (the new premium version of the company's previously released smartwatch) and the LG Watch Urbane. The most dramatic difference at MWC was an emphasis on presenting wearables as fashion accessories and moving away from the original clunky technology associated with t...
