Blocking a Sub-Floor
tomdxSeptember 8, 2010
I'm doing some reinforcing to my living room floor prior to installation of hardwood. I'm blocking using 2x10's placed flush to the underside of the plywood, but a friend of mine insists that I should use 3/4 inch plywood for support and not the 2x10's. The 2x10's are easier to transport and cut... Am I ok using them?
Better off posting in the flooring forum.
I'd ask over in remodeling. I'm just a homeowner, but I'd use the 2-by material and joist hangers, or maybe just stagger the blocks and nail them from the other side of the joist. Matter of fact, I have done just that. Never heard of using 3/4" ply for joist blocking.
Are you doing this to reduce bounce? Are you joists twisted?

With a new speaking section, the new TOEFL iBT promises to be exciting.
Undergraduate, graduate, and postgraduate programmes around the world require students to demonstrate their ability to communicate in English as an entrance necessity.
TOEFL (Test Of English as a Foreign Language) gives students the opportunity to prove they can communicate ideas effectively by simulating university classroom and student life communication. The language used in the test reflects real-life English-language usage in university lectures, classes, and laboratories. It is the same language professors use when they discuss coursework or concepts with students. It is the language students use in study groups and everyday university situations, such as buying books at the bookstore. The reading passages are from real textbooks and course materials.
The test measures how well students use English, not just their knowledge of the language. Because it is a valid and reliable test with unbiased, objective scoring, TOEFL confirms that a student has the English language skills necessary to succeed in an academic setting. That's why it has become the most popular and accessible English language test in the world. It has been administered more than 20 million times since 1964, and is available in more than 180 countries. It is also the most accepted test in the world. More than 6,000 colleges, universities, and agencies in 110 countries accept TOEFL scores. That means that students have the flexibility to use their TOEFL test scores worldwide.
The TOEFL iBT?
It tests all four language skills that effective communication requires: Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing. It emphasises and measures English usage and communication ability in academic settings.
A Speaking section has been added. This section includes six tasks that require test-takers to wear headphones and speak into a microphone when they respond. The responses are digitally recorded and sent to ETS's Online Scoring Network. To ensure maximum objectivity and reliability, three to six certified ETS raters evaluate the responses on a scale of 0 to 4. The average rating is then converted to a scaled score of 0 to 30. Raters are constantly monitored every time they score a test to ensure the highest accuracy and quality control possible.
The Writing section has been expanded. The new test requires test-takers to write a response to material they have heard and read. In addition, test-takers must compose an essay in support of an opinion. Test-takers' typed responses to the writing tasks are sent to ETS's Online Scoring Network where two to four raters evaluate the responses on a scale of 0 to 5. The average rating is converted to a scaled score of 0 to 30.
Some questions require the test-taker to use more than one English-language skill and combine or integrate information from more than one source, the same way students use English language every day in the classroom. For example, sometimes test-takers read a passage, listen to a short lecture about a topic, and then provide a written or spoken response. TOEFL iBT helps test-takers prove they can combine their English language skills to communicate ideas effectively. This ability is the key to academic success.
Note-taking is allowed. Test-takers can take notes on any section of the test the same way they would in a real college class. Test-takers can use the notes when answering test questions. The notes are collected and destroyed before the test-takers leave the test centre.
The new test takes about four hours. Test-takers complete all four sections of the test in one day, eliminating the need to travel to the test centre twice. It is delivered on computer via the Internet at secure test centres around the world.
The new scores help explain a test-taker's English-language skill level. ETS provides comprehensive scoring information, including four skill-section scores and a total score.
Scores are now reported online. Test-takers can view their scores online 15 business days after the test. They can also choose to receive a copy of their score report by mail. Colleges, universities, and agencies can go online to view the scores of those students who selected them as a score recipient. They also continue to receive scores in paper and electronic formats.
Why the changes?
To assess the ability to communicate successfully in an academic setting. The new test helps test-takers determine their academic readiness. It also helps institutions identify and select students with the English-communication skills required to succeed.
To simulate university communication. The new integrated tasks, which require more than one language skill to complete, reflect the way language is used on campus every day — from the classroom to the bookstore. By simply preparing for the new TOEFL, students will build the skills they need for academic success.

@Giuliano Sider:
"I think the oil and gas revenues are an important factor in the expansion of government in Texas, although I don't have the figures."
That still doesn't account for it- NY has lots of natural gas but the exploitation is difficult because such things get held up in the courts easily. Heck, Louisiana used to have a large oil industry until Obama decided to crush it. Outside of the metropolis near NYC there is plenty of land in New York State.
The drive of some to jump through hoops to argue that it's not government that holds back economic growth is absolutely aggravating.

31 year old man | Austin, TX, USA | Seeking women 23-31 within 30 miles
Good Life...
I'm fairly new to the city, I moved to Austin last October in an effort to shake things up and expand my comfort zones. My family is very important to me, which may seem to contradict the move but this is something I needed to do for me and my family respects that. I'm continuously amazed by all the great things Austin has to offer and enjoy finding new spots to hangout - lots of good coffee in the city. I love dogs but don't have one at the moment. I travel a lot for work and live downtown, wouldn't really be fair. I have been known to walk over to the dog park at Town Lake and hangout with other people's dogs. Zilker Park is amazing - I really enjoy the rec leagues through ASSC. I'd be lying if I said i wasn't really focused on my career; however, I feel like I balance it well with fun. Work is important to me but so is experiencing everything life has to offer. It's my belief that success with the prior supports achieving the latter. Candidly, I don't really know who I'm looking for (hence being single). With that said I know a couple things: You must appreciate the splendid culinary combination that is pizza and wine. I'm also a sushi fanatic, if sushi is a "no go" for you, it may be a deal breaker. If you can quote Home Alone, The Princess Bride, Coming to America or Hackers, it's on.

DLC bundled in
Over on the official Bioware blogs, the producer for Mass Effect 3 on Wii U, Melanie Faulknor, has written an update on what has gone into the game to make it a good buy for Nintendo gamers.
"The Special Edition includes our From Ashes DLC, the Extended Cut DLC, the Rebellion, Resurgence and Earth multiplayer packs, and a bonus heavy weapon - all on disc!"
"We are also including a new update to the Genesis interactive back story comic from Dark Horse we first released when Mass Effect 2 came to the PS3. The updated version will allow Wii U players to get the back story of Mass Effect and Mass Effect 2 and will allow them to make decisions at key story points. These choices will then create a save game for you that can be imported into the game, opening up more storylines for each player. So if you're new to the series, you can get caught up and personalize the experience. And if you've already played, you can choose a different route to see what things you might not have seen the first time around."
Bearing in mind that a Mass Effect Trilogy compilation is now out on other systems, this Wii U edition of ME3 could be a tough sell?

I just realised I'm partigyling my coffee at work.
I fill the filter 3/4 full and the water level half full.
I then take the first cup and refill the water.
I like my first cup strong and may have a later one dure in the day.
The rest of the guys come in after me and get the weaker stuff. (How they like it)
I knew brewing knowledge must me transfareable somewhere!
Are you batch sparging, or fly sparging that coffee?
There is a very fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
You're a better man than I. I make coffee singles for myself to avoid the fiasco of community coffee
I tried to partigyle with my Keurig. I don't recommend it...
Like second infusions with a suitable tea. Man have I been into tea lately. Oh best tea purveyor stateside:www.uptontea.com
The best service and great product. Ok so it's OT but hey
Pshaw. Most of the time I get my coffee at home so I can control the quality---I'm a freakin' snob like you wouldn't believe.
But when I do make coffee here---say, in the afternoon just for the caffeine---I'll make a half-batch and use twice as much grounds. It's thick and the strength makes up for the drop in quality (it's not THAT bad tho).
People are usually quick to figure out that I've made it---and they'll water it down in their cups. Our machine is hard-plumbed into the water lines and is computer controlled, so I don't really have the option to just making a cup. One button does half pot, the other button does full pot. So, whatever---they deal.
When I travel and the hotel has those little coffee maker packets, I'll use both the regular & de-caf packets & half the water. Sometimes I miss the espresso machine at my previous job, but for what it cost, I can buy a compact tractor!
Remember one unassailable statistic, as explained by the late, great George Carlin: "Just think of how stupid the average person is, and then realize half of them are even stupider!"
"I would like to die on Mars, just not on impact." Elon Musk
I've been going to this coffee place Aqua Java lately. It's the only place I've been too that makes coffee a cup at a time, and I'm from Austin! Anyway, it's a nice joint. They roast thier own beans and make each cup individually.
I'm going to suggest they "vorlauf" thier first runnings though bc the last 1/4" of the cup is always full of grounds. I think they'll look at me weird though.

White spots on my Lychee tree
Hi Everyone,
Im wondering if someone can help me..Im new to growing Lychee trees. I have had them (3 different varieties) for about 1 year and they seem to be growing fine...New leaves forming almost every 2 to 3 months and they have tripled in size. But i have noticed some of them are getting this white powdery stuff on the branches...i can wipe it off with my hands but there seems to be more and more forming...Its not all over the tree but there are a few clusters over some parts of the tree.some on the branch joints and some on the middle of some branches...
I really love my trees and i want them to continue thriving so ant help or advice would be much appreciated..
PS:I live on the Gold coast of Queensland Australia.
Thanks :)
Thanks for the replies....Sorry for the blurry shot . I tried to get as close as possible to the affected area but the focus would not work so well on my camera.
I looked up mealybug and it seems to be the closest to what i have on my tree..although the affected area is so small its too difficult to see if it is...but thats the closest i think.
what do you think the best method of getting rid of them without much affect to the tree is?

Top cop
Gresham Police Officer of the Year is credited with creating innovative training measures
Some boys never outgrow playing cops and robbers.
When I was in fifth grade, I wrote a paper about What I Want To Do with My Life, said Gresham Police Officer Ryan Rasmussen. It was graduate from high school, join the military and become a police officer. My life was pretty well planned I always knew I wanted to be a police officer.
Not only is Rasmussen fulfilling his own prophesy, but his contributions to the Gresham Police Department have led him to be named the 2012 Ron Crump Officer of the Year. The award, named for highly revered and retired Patrol Officer Ron Crump, is presented annually to the officer whose work ethic exceeds his or her assigned duties.
Rasmussen is a nine-year veteran with Gresham Police. As the lead firearms instructor for the departments firearms program, Rasmussen introduced real-world training to better prepare officers for potential problems they may encounter on the job. He initiated an ongoing development program that helps officers cope with physical exhaustion and learn how to identify deadly threats in crowded environments.
Rasmussen also carries a leading role in the field training officers program. In addition to assessing the skill levels of incoming recruits, Rasmussen spends regular time at the Police Academy, assisting in the training of new officers to ensure their success later in the field.
His innovative and forward-thinking approach toward training not only has contributed to officers being better prepared in the field, but also earned him high marks among newbies and veterans alike.
Ryans done some great scenario training related to what officers may face in the field, said Detective John Rasmussen (no relation), Gresham Police spokesman. Hes given a lot of thought to training our officers so they are safe.
Born and raised in Hart, Mich., Rasmussen, 32, enlisted in the Marines shortly before his high school graduation. He was deployed to Rota, Spain, missing his commencement, and spent four years as part of the Marine Security Force, guarding U.S. Naval ships and installations along the Straits of Gibraltar.
While on duty in Rota, Rasmussen met a young Naval Arabic cryptologist named Melissa. The pair completed their tour and returned stateside Melissa to family in Portland and Rasmussen to his hometown in Michigan. Two months later, Rasmussen packed up, moved west and in November 2004, the couple married.
Rasmussen is a laid-back kind of guy, with an ever-ready smile and infectious sense of humor. He spends his days in a squad car patrolling neighborhoods in the Rockwood area, a location he volunteered for. Hes passionate about his job and his desire to help others, but understands the barriers his uniform presents.
I have a realistic view of my job, he said. I know Im not going to help everybody, and most people I come across every day hate me. But (Rockwood) is where I want to be. Its where people need attention. Every call is different down there.
Rasmussen is one of 55 police officers who patrol the 25 square miles that define Gresham. Though some days may be more predictable with calls holidays, for example Rasmussen said cruising through neighborhoods, talking to people and a sense of humor help during the days that arent so predictable.
(Being a patrol officer) keeps me from sitting behind a desk, he said. I love coming to work and seeing what people are up to.
Laughing, he added, But theres a lot more paperwork than I thought.
Though Rasmussen devotes a lot of time and energy thinking of worst-case scenarios to present during the departments twice-yearly training, he has fired his weapon only once while on duty.
It was a dog named Peaches, he said. She belonged to a transient we were talking to, and she just didnt like me. When we locked eyes, I knew she wasnt going to back down.
Being recognized by his peers as officer of the year has been an honor, Rasmussen said, especially since his interactions within the department span so many people in so many different capacities.
But like Ron Crump, the career patrol officer who the award is named after, Rasmussen is considered an officers officer within the ranks.
Ryan puts himself out there by saying, I want to do this because its good for the department and the community, spokesman Rasmussen said. He goes above and beyond whats expected of an officer, and that exemplifies why he was selected.Add a comment

I'll show you mine if you'll show me yours
I would love to see some photos of everyone's spring blossoms!
I took pictures of a few of my daffodils and narcissus last week and although Wordsworth would not find many of the golden variety to wax poetic about, I always forget how pretty they are until I see them again each season.
What lovelies!
Rapture, a new early blooming daff
A clump of Ice Follies in the front yard woods
The name escapes me at the moment on these little pretties
Rows of daffs I planted 'temporarily' years ago in the woods. Some hardy bloom at all due to needing divided. Hopefully I will get that done this year after the foliage has dies back.
A daff (tete-a-tete I think) I 'clocked', practicing for exhibiting the first time next Sat. Clocking means having one petal pointing straight up.
Remy, I love the blue Iris reticulata!
Zubababy, it looks like you have a yard full of Crocus. That's great!
Sue, I love my Ice Follies, too. I planted about 20 of them a few years ago and I bet I have at least 300 now and need to divide them again. It never disappoints.
I am interested in the term "clocked". Is that something you actively look for in a potential show specimen that is naturally occuring or is it a technique that you use to actually manipulate the plant into that position?
Happy weekend!
or is it a technique that you use to actually manipulate the plant into that position?
It is a technique used to do it. When the bloom is freshly cut, one can hold the back of the bloom by the ovary and then twist it gently until there is a petal pointing straight up. The same thing can be done with any twisted stems on blooms. Both count toward points or points off if not manipulated well.
I am going Mon I think to meet up with a local lady who has grown daffs all her life, and who is a big time exhibitor. She has probably won every award imaginable at one time or another and several of them numerous times. She is going to work with me a bit for a test run of prepping blooms for showing and give me some of the ins and outs of things.
I expect this is not daffodil competition country, but it would be fun to attend a show.
Where are you located? I'm sure there are shows in your zone, but not sure just how close to where you are located.
btw...you can put your location in the one box provided for the garden zone. See I am zone 5/6 S IN. By putting it in the zone box, it will be shown on your Member Page, and will automatically be shown whenever you post. Just click on the Member Pages link found at the bottom of any/every GW page.
Let us know how you do!
Will do. Hopefully I will get to learn more about prepping to show today. There is also another show April 16th in Indianapolis that I hope and plan to enter.
Here is a link that might be useful: 2009 Daffodil Events & Show Calendar
Thanks for the link. If I had looked earlier I could have attended a show in Knoxville, which is about 50 minutes away from me. I will be prepared for next year.
Tahiti is one of my favorites:
I can't remember this one at the moment, but it is another one that performs like crazy with little encouragement:

must have This are a must have ,I love the way they hug your legs I'm 5.2" they are just a little bit too long for me,but they fit perfect everywhere else. March 7, 2015
Look Great. BUT IF YOU'RE OVER 5.8 = SHORT LEGGING I just got them, the real leather look is awesome but im a size 12 in pants and I am almost 5.9 plus I have a butt -- I won't deny that. These leggings are stunning and I ordered them in a large because every legging I have ever ordered from express I get in a large, -- I even ordered three other pairs of leggings and they fit PERFECTLY. But the scuba leggings ... they are too short. Thank god for boots that cover up your ankle and up above your ankle but just a warning. IF YOU'RE TALLER THAN 5.8 AND YOU HAVE CURVE TO YOU, THESE LEGGINGS WILL BE SHORT ON YOU. If you're willing to look past it like I am -- black socks and high or medium high boots are a MUST. So everything you're reading about how perfect they are, understand everyone's height and body is very different but I cannot deny that they do look lovely and the comment about issues with the knees of the leggings, --- I just pulled mine out of the bag after ordering and noticed white stripes on my knees like I had scraped them on both knees, I believe this is a side effect of of the material. February 19, 2015
Pleasantly Surprised! I rarely write reviews but I just had to rave about these leggings. I was skeptical at first, worried they would look cheap or be unflattering but they're great! Super comfortable and the coating helps your feel sucked in. I like that it's a faux leather look that doesn't look poorly made but is very easy to wear. Would 100% recommend these. February 13, 2015
I know I'm the miniority here, and that scuba leggings/clothings are the rage, but I couldn't pull these off. The fake leather looked trashy and not flattering on me. I'm curiver so that might be why, but I can't jump on board with this trend. Ponte knit pants all the way, or space dyed leggings... not the fakey, shiny scuba. February 12, 2015
Great Faux Leather Pants! This is my first review ever and I had to write it because I have seriously searched far and wide for the perfect faux leather pant and finally found it. I have tried H & M as well as a few other companies and had to send them back due to sizing issues, being too thin, etc. These are thicker and perfect. For reference, I am 5'7" and 140 pounds and these fit perfectly in size M. They are actually slightly big, but the smalls were too small for my athletic legs (cross fit). Anyway, I hope this review helps anyone else trying to make a decision on faux leather pants! :) January 28, 2015

Andersen: Badgers QB Joel Stave out indefinitely, but not injured
Wisconsin had already had a weird few days when it came to injuries, but things nonetheless became dramatically weirder Tuesday thanks to the changing status of junior quarterback Joel Stave.
Badger coach Gary Andersen announced Tuesday afternoon that due to "some issues with [Stave's] throwing shoulder ... the best thing for him right now is to shut it down and give him some rest." The announcement set no timetable set for Stave's return from what the announcement described multiple times as a shoulder "injury."
But Andersen later retracted much of that announcement early Tuesday evening, when he told Fox Sports Wisconsin's Jesse Temple and others that Stave was not injured after all.
"Is he injured?" Andersen said. "No. Is he ready to play right now? No. I used the word 'injury,' so maybe bad choice of words."
Andersen added that Stave is not "shut down" and will continue working through individual drills, but will not participate in game preparation. He again provided no timetable for Stave's return, saying it could even be as soon as this week, but also said redshirt sophomore Bart Houston would be the Badgers' backup for this week's home opener against FCS Western Illinois.
Stave -- who injured the shoulder in the Capital One Bowl loss to South Carolina and had his spring workload reduced -- said point-blank he did not know why he had been unable to throw the ball correctly in recent practices:
Stave: I've thrown how many thousands of balls in my life? I know when it hurts, when it doesn't. I don't know what it is. Just isn't right.— Jesse Temple (@jessetemple) September 2, 2014
Stave said he felt he could go "100 percent" in game action if called on, suggesting the issue was more mental than physical. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reported Stave said he was not dealing with any pain or other issue in the shoulder.
Stave battled with Tanner McEvoy for the starting quarterback job through fall camp, and was even listed alongside McEvoy on the Badgers' game week depth chart. When McEvoy was struggling against LSU's defense on Saturday (finishing 8-of-24 for 50 yards with 2 interceptions), many wondered why coach Gary Andersen did not give Stave -- a starter in all 13 games in 2013 -- a chance in the second half.
Tuesday's announcement seemed at first bring clarity to the quarterback situation. But Andersen's and Stave's later statements have unquestionably muddied the long-term picture again.

Oh, brother. The Orlando Sentinel reports today that a Florida couple are in hiding after a Twitter campaign — endorsed by filmmaker Spike Lee — incorrectly gave their address as the home of Trayvon Martin shooter George Zimmerman. More from GlobalPost: Trayvon Martin case: A timeline Public outrage at the decision by police not to arrest Zimmerman after he shot the 17-year-old has only grown in the month since the killing. The newspaper said the woman, 70, and her husband, are in a hotel until the danger dies down. The mother had a son named William George Zimmerman who lived with her until 1995 but bears no relation to the George Zimmerman who acknowledged firing the shot that killed Martin, the newspaper said. William Zimmerman told The Sentinel that some public records bore his name. The Smoking Gun reported yesterday that the original tweet had been sent last week by a Los Angeles man named Marcus Davonne Higgins, who addressed his post to celebrities including Lee with the words "EVERYBODY REPOST THIS." In a Facebook post, Higgins also posted the address and wrote: "FEEL FREE TO REACH OUT AND TOUCH HIM" and the subsequently "MY PEOPLE OUT THERE IN FLORIDA JUST TOLD ME GEORGE ZIMMERMAN IS NOT AT HIS HOUSE THEY OUT THERE RIGHT NOW," according to The Smoking Gun. The Huffington Post said Lee had sent the repost out to 240,000 followers but has since deleted it. The Hollywood Reporter said a Lee representative was unavailable for comment. More from GlobalPost: 3D printing: A stepping stone to new human tissue and body parts According to HuffPost, George Zimmerman's middle name is Michael. On his Twitter feed, Higgins has acknowledged the error and promised to apologize in writing to the couple: LIKE I SAID EARLY I APOLOGY AND GOING TO WRITE A LETTER TO THE ELDER PEOPLE ALL POWER TO THE PEOPLE. I AM SORRY... — MARCUS D.HIGGINS (@MACCAPONE) March 28, 2012 See our complete Trayvon Martin case coverage.

SBD/14/Sports Media
Published December 14, 1994
In its latest attempt to acquire a broadcast network, Turner Broadcasting is "pressing forward" with a proposal to acquire NBC from GE in a deal that would give GE 35% of a combined Turner-NBC company. In the proposed deal, Turner would get NBC "in a plan valued at about $5 billion, including about $2 billion in Turner stock." GE has discussed a sale with Time Warner and Disney, but "those talks haven't been fruitful." Turner has the support of TCI, which owns around 25% of Turner stock. Time Warner, which owns 20% of Turner stock, is said to have some "disagreements" with the deal and would agree to the purchase "only if Turner is willing to trade Time Warner's stake for an asset such as TNT or the Cartoon Network. In the past, Turner has been reluctant to part with any broadcasting assets (Lippman & Sharpe, WALL STREET JOURNAL, 12/14). The deal is expected to be discussed at a GE board meeting this Friday, however, it was stressed that it was "highly unlikely any decision would be reached" (Robin Schatz, N.Y. NEWSDAY, 12/13). According to sources close to TCI, Time Warner continues to be "cautious and unwilling to make a commitment" (Frederic Biddle, BOSTON GLOBE, 12/13). MORE FROM THE WRIGHT? Wright, asked why NBC waited until now to challenge the foreign ownership of Fox: "We probably wouldn't have challenged Fox had it not been for the formation of a holding company called Fox Savoy ... to purchase affiliates through the country." Wright on what NBC hopes to gain from the FCC complaint: "I hope we get a clear picture from the FCC of what the foreign-ownership rules are." Wright on the possible sale of NBC: "GE is not panting to part with NBC" (NEWSWEEK, 12/19). Sources tell the WALL STREET JOURNAL that Wright "favors" the Turner proposal (Lippman & Sharpe, WALL STREET JOURNAL, 12/14).
