Mason-Lite wood-burning models exceed EPA guidelines
When installing a new fireplace or replacing an existing one, the last thing homeowners want is to wade through the myriad bureaucratic levels of local, state, regional and federal clean air standards for home fireplace safety and emissions. Masonry Fireplace Industries, makers of Mason-Lite pre-cast modular masonry fireplace systems since 2005, utilizes more than 100 years of combined experience to take the worry out of fireplace installation and replacement. They understand the Environmental Protection Agency's regulations, thus ensuring that your fireplace meets or exceeds EPA Phase 2 guidelines. After all, when you're curled up in front of the fireplace enjoying the warmth and the crackling sounds of burning wood, the last thing on your mind is air quality.
Masonry Fireplace Industries strives to keep pace with changes in the industry and in emission standards and guidelines and have introduced the Pureburn line of home wood-burning units. All models meet or exceed EPA Phase 2 standards for residential fireplaces, giving you years of worry-free use. Our products are independently tested by the PFS Corporation testing agency to meet or exceed the EPA's guidelines and National Fire Protection Association standards. Mason-Lite clean burning masonry fireplaces also meet UL 127 listed standards when installed according to manufacturer instructions.
Numerous studies have identified wood smoke as containing fine particles that can pose potentially serious public health risks. The Clean Air Act of 1970 has cut air pollution even as populations have risen. Yet today, according to the EPA, wood smoke from an estimated 12 million fireplaces and wood stoves continues to create significant health risks. In 2007 the EPA created the Burn Wise partnership program to ensure that cleaner outdoor wood-burning units are available to consumers. In October, 2008, the EPA moved to Phase 2 of the Burn Wise program and required that all residential wood-burning units installed after 1988 meet air quality guidelines.
Mason-Lite Pureburn fireplaces are designed to pass or surpass current air quality standards without the use of a catalytic converter, which can require mandatory annual maintenance and costly replacement during the life of the fireplace. Mason-Lite's gas-assisted component eliminates the need for costly catalytic converters, thus reducing unit costs and installation time. In addition, Pureburn units have tested to 2.6 g/kg of emissions, placing them below voluntary EPA Phase 2 emission levels of 5.1 g/kg and making them more efficient that GreenTech Solutions Isokern units, once considered the industry gold standard.
The EPA Burn Wise program also emphasizes the importance of lowering emissions through education on proper wood-burning practices through simple changes to their fire-starting and -burning routines Suggestions include choosing the best types of wood for burning, burning only well-seasoned wood that has been split properly, maintaining consistently hot fires, and using proper wood storage practices. (Visit http://www.epa.gov/burnwise/pdfs/strategies.pdf for more tips and ways to maintain a safe-burning fireplace.)
Homebuyers will pay extra for a fireplace, considered by the Hearth, Patio & Barbecue Association to be among the top three desired features requested by new home buyers (1). Mason-Lite Pureburn units can result in savings of up to 50 percent over hand-built masonry fireplaces. Mason-Lite concrete fire boxes are the lightest in in their class in terms of weight and highest in terms of heat-resistant strength. Because of our lightweight design, Mason-Lite Pureburn units can be installed throughout multi-level homes.
Mason-Lite fireplace systems can be installed indoors our outdoors and accommodate wood, natural gas and propane gas systems. We design our units with safety in mind and all of our systems comply with UL 127 and UL 103 chimney component standards for factory-built fireplaces installation. They also come with a 10-year limited warranty. Our easy, "no-mess installation" means faster completion time and results in lower installation costs.
Masonry Fireplace Industries will custom build units to your specifications. We also offer gas-burning fireplaces, vent-free fireplaces, fire pits, the Toscana wood-fired pizza oven, and masonry accessories. For more information on bringing the beauty and warmth of a clean-burning fireplace into your home or business, visit www.mason-lite.com or call 800-345-7078.

Product Update
August 20, 2014
Attention Mason-lite Customers,
Over the years we have had many inquiries pertaining to offering certain complementary products. We are excited to present some new additions to our Mason-Lite Price-list that we feel will really benefit the sales of our products.
First, We are proud to announce that our "Pure-Burn" EPA Phase II Fireplace is coming on to the market. Currently we are offering the burner and grate system to be retrofitted into our MFP44. For more information on this unit please contact us.
Second, We have added additional products to our Accessories and Dampers. We have added the see-thru air kit (MFPST-AK) for both see-through units as well as custom units with square sides. We have added our new arch for use with the MFP63 (MFP-ARC63). We are also expanding our cast iron dampers to include all of our standard sizes (33″-63″). Note: The MFP-CC56 is a custom made damper.
Third, We have added our both our Masonry Chimney Cap (MMC-14) as well as our Fire Ring Cap (MFR-CAP) to the second page. Our masonry chimney cap acts as a spark arrestor as well as a rain/debris shield for our masonry chimney systems. The fire ring cap was added because our Unfinished Fire Ring does not include a cap because the customer has the option of using their own finishing material.
Lastly, We have added the Roof Radiation Shield (##DCA-RRS) as well as the Attic Insulation Shield (##DCA-IS) under the DuraChimney packages. We have found these to be very beneficial to the chimney systems.
These changes will take effect in September. Please contact us with any questions you may have about these changes.

New Brick for Brick Panels
June 11, 2014
Dear Mason-Lite Customer,
We have decided to change the brick we use for our firebrick panels. We have had a little trouble with blemishes in our old firebrick.
The new brick will not only have practically no blemishes but it is also a stronger brick. This will ensure an even higher quality of product than we are already supplying you. We chose the closest color to our old brick which is a gold. We have had a great response to the color so far. I have attached a photo of our old brick and our new brick for a visual. The best part is the price of the panels will not be effected by this change!
We will start shipping this new brick this week. Please note that we will not mix any old brick and new brick in your current or future orders.

Top 4 Reasons to Choose A Corner Wood Burning Fireplace.
June 3, 2014
A fireplace can be an appealing addition to any room, home, or business. However, some people find that a traditional, flat-front style fireplace does not meet their needs. As a result, more people are installing corner space-saving wood burning fireplaces in their dwellings or businesses.
Mason-Lite specializes in all sizes and styles of fireplaces, including smaller units that tuck neatly in a corner. Our team of fireplace experts can listen to your space needs and help you pick the right wood burning fireplace for your business or home.
We are always happy to learn from our readers.
- What factors motivated you to choose a corner fireplace?
- What are the advantages of a corner wood burning design?
Reason #1: Enjoy Fireplace Ambiance and Comfort Anywhere
Do you live in a condominium, narrow town house, or older home? In these dwellings, and many others, floor space is limited. If your rooms have a small footprint, you may think installing a wood burning fireplace is not a good option for you. However, a corner wood burning unit can fit comfortably in any vacant corner.
Even if you have large rooms, you can consider subdividing them into cozy seating or reading areas, accented with a corner fireplace. You can have all the furniture and floor space you need, while having the relaxing comfort of a crackling fire to warm your loved ones on cold days.
Reason #2 Save Floor Space
A traditional flat-front fireplace takes up a lot of floor and wall space. This style, while very classic, can limit your ability to add furniture or decorations to accent your room. A corner wood burning fireplace is the best option when space is a premium. It takes up very little wall space and does not project as far out into your room.
Before you build a corner-style fireplace, or any fireplace, you need to consider your room layout carefully. You need to contemplate more than just the size of the fireplace unit itself. Think about normal traffic flow through the room. Be sure your fireplace location is at least 36 inches from any combustible wall that lacks protection. If you add a wall protector, you may be able to reduce the clearance to 12 inches. Also, you should plan for a non-combustible hearth extension on the front and side of the unit. In addition, you might want to consider devoting space to wood and fire-tending tool storage for added convenience.
Reason #3 Add Style to Your Interior Design
Corner fireplaces are rapidly growing in popularity. Those with interior decorating flair recognize the value of space-saving wood burning corner fireplaces. A corner set up leaves more wall space open for furniture. They can also provide essential warmth to a room. Because of their compressed size, corner fireplaces can fit in more rooms—such as bathrooms and kitchens.
In many cases, homeowners want their wood burning corner fireplace to be the focal point of their room. In this scenario, adding a mantle or attractive surround can draw attention to a wood burning fireplace in any corner. Savvy home decorators suggest that homeowners can use lighting, artwork, or even an flat screen TV near a small corner fireplace to ensure it rises to focal point status.
Decorating experts recommend that homeowners consider furniture placement layout before installing wood burning fireplace in a corner. Creating a comfortable living space should be the paramount goal. You can achieve this by ensuring the furniture pieces you plan to use most to face the fireplace. Also, consider using area rugs and furniture groupings to match the angle of your wood burning corner fireplace. If you are working with a very small seating space, using lightweight or swivel chairs can create a corner conversation area near your wood burning fireplace that you can reconfigure with ease.
You can also use a corner fireplace to fill out empty spaces in a large room. In addition, if you have a awkward or unbalanced room architecture, a wood burning corner fireplace can help provide a grounded, balanced look.
Reason #4: Create an Inviting Business Environment
Wood burning fireplaces tucked in a corner are not only appealing for a home—they can be great for your business too. Whether a business owner has a professional office or a retail location, having a corner wood burning fireplace can provide a welcoming environment for clients. For example, since a fireplace conjures a home-like feeling, having a corner wood burning fireplace in a medical office can put patients at ease before appointments.
These days, fireplaces are often found in restaurants, since they help patrons relax and enjoy their meal. Wood burning corner fireplaces can also create a soothing mood in salons and other spaces. If you operate any type of business, think of the many benefits a corner wood burning fireplace can bring.
Spark Your Imagination
If you have an empty corner in your home or business, a wood burning fireplace might be a good decorating choice. Also, if you have an older model wood burning appliance, such as stove or fireplace, upgrading to a new model is advisable. As the United States Environmental Protection Agency notes, modern wood burning fireplaces are 50% more energy efficient and produce 70% less pollution than older models. Having a wood burning fireplace in your corner not only boosts your room aesthetics, it also makes good economic sense.
When shopping for a corner wood burning fireplace, you should seek top-quality advice. At Mason-Lite we have more than 100 years combined experience in the fireplace industry and can provide you with all the information you need. We are recognized as one of the top providers of modular fireplaces—including corner models.
If you already have a corner wood burning fireplace in your home or business, we would love to hear about your experience

Important Installation Update
February 3, 2014
We would like to take this time to announce some very important reminders about the installation of our fireplaces. We have very specific instructions in our manuals that pertain to not only the installation process but also the curing instructions following the installation. We understand that the dealer and/or the installer will not always be able to instruct the homeowner of the importance of the curing process. We have developed a label to be left inside of each unit after the installation for the eyes of the homeowner. This label explains the importance of the unit having 28 days to dry before being used. After which, 2 small fires are to be started before standard use. We have attached this label below with more information. Please contact us with any questions about this process and or the label.
Product Update
December 18, 2013
Dear Customers,
Here at Mason-Lite we strive to offer the best products possible for your masonry fireplace needs. To make that possible we are constantly improving our products. Recently we have made two such changes that we believe will benefit the use and installation process of our products.
The first change we have made is to our mortar. We decided to reformulate our mortar to offer the best quality for masonry fireplace installations. This new mixture meets and exceeds the ASTM C-199 rating for high-temperature mortar. ICC has recently updated their requirements for masonry fireplace installations to include this rating.
The second change that we have made is to our T-Bar that supports our lintel system. We have heard from our installers that the lintel length is slightly too long for a flush installation. We have decreased the length to make sure that every installation is flush, yet very well supported. Another change we have made to our T-Bars is the addition of metal lath to the top of the T-Bar. This helps bond the T-Bar to the lentil with our new and improved masonry mortar.
Both of these changes will be included in all units produced after January 1, 2014. We enjoy bringing you the best products possible and we encourage all of our customers to give us any feed back that will help us do so.
AIA CES Program
August 23, 2013
This August we had a great turn out with the Orange County Chapter at our most recent CES (continuing education system) meeting. We had a lot of fun presenting the safe and successful installation practices of masonry fireplaces. We went over topics such as building codes and compliance's, clearances to combustibles, custom fireplace installations, and most importantly safe practices while installing masonry fireplaces. We enjoyed hearing the first hand accounts of architects and there experiences with masonry fireplaces. We plan on having many more architect luncheons. These are a great way for us to spread the knowledge we have on the topic of masonry fireplace installations. The principals of Mason-Lite fireplaces have over 110 years of experience in the fireplace industry. Contact us for more information on our CES program and if there is one near you.

A Little Life; Hanya Yanagihara
Doubleday - March - 2015
When I first decided to read this book, I thought that the cover image was a terrible choice, however, after finishing this 700+ pp book over the course of a few weeks, I now think the image is perfect. It so accurately depicts the emotional pain, physical pain and trauma experienced by the focus character, Jude, from childhood through adulthood. I loved this book. It is by far, the BEST book I've read in years.
A Little Life, is a novel about a 30 year friendship of 4 male college friends. Jean Baptiste (JB) a self-centered artist, Malcolm, an architect, Willem, a kind, caring man and actor, and Jude, a handsome, brilliant man who entered college at 16. He is now a successful, but deeply troubled attorney.
Nick-named by his friends, Saint Jude, (Patron Saint of lost causes), Jude's friends really know very little about their friend. He keeps his painful childhood himself. As an adult he is mostly crippled and, oftentimes must rely on his wheelchair to get around. He tells his friends he was in a car accident at the age of 15, but there is much more to that story than is initially revealed. Abandoned as an infant, he never knew anything about his parents, he was in and out of group homes, and he even spent years with monks at a monastery.
Just when Jude felt there was some adult he could trust, his hopes were crushed by some cruel act by someone who he hoped had cared about him. When he thinks that his situation couldn't get any worst, it does. His first gift ever was at the age of 5, a fossil which he cherished, given to him by Brother Luke, a monk who would later betray him.
It is difficult to say to much more without revealing spoilers -- there are several reviews out there that give away way too many details, which will spoil the reading experience for others. The story is well paced and I was quickly drawn into the story and into Jude's dark world, and his past and present pain and trauma, which is slowly revealed. Even when he is in a happy situation, he can't stop himself from dwelling on the fact he feels so unworthy of any form of happiness.
Although the story was sad, heartbreaking really, the reader will also see that there is much kindness toward Jude by his friends and others who truly cared about him. Willem, who is guardedly allowed to be part of Jude's life. Harold, a former Harvard Law professor, who wants to adopt Jude as his own son, and Andy, a friend and doctor who is there for Jude when he desperately needed someone to help him.
A Little Life, cuts deep; it's real and gritty, yet beautiful as well. It's a book that examines, the good, the bad and the ugly people and things in life. It forces the reader to think about the uncomfortable things in life, the life long effects of physical, emotional and sexual abuse and trauma. It makes you wonder whether, even as adults, with supportive individuals ones side, is it ever possible to free oneself from the trauma of the past? This book is certainly not a good choice for the faint of heart reader -- individuals who shy away from graphic descriptions of abusive situations in various forms. This is one of those stories that will stick in my mind forever. I am so very happy I read this book, it makes my less than perfect childhood seem almost normal after reading this book. Hanya Yanagihara is a talented individual. In fact, I just started reading her debut novel, The People in the Trees, which I am also enjoying.
Thanks to John Pitts, VP from Doubleday for providing me with a finished copy of this book.
5/5 stars

pattern search: skirt with under shorts
Perhaps someone will recall this one and tell me where I can find a pattern that looks like an entire short skirt on the outside...but on the inside it is lined as shorts. It's not a skort. Have been searching but no cigar. (In Canada) Thanks in advance for your help!
Are you looking for an adult pattern, or child's? Butterick has an older pattern for girls(B4281)that has the attached shorts under the skirt. It is called a skort. Ready-to-wear are called skorts and skooters. You can still find the Butterick pattern on eBay. It is where I found one for my GDs.
Here is a link that might be useful: skort pattern
You might find what you are looking for on this website. I think you mean the kind of pattern that they used to use for things like skating where the shorts are attached under the skirt. Colleen

Pyridium is a brand name of the drug phenazopyridine. Pyridium is a pain reliever that is used to treat pain in the the lower part of your urinary tract.
Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) is a compound found in some types of mouthwashes, toothpastes, lozenges, throat sprays, anti-sore throat sprays, breath sprays, and nasal sprays. It is an antiseptic that kills bacteria and other microorganisms.
They are not related... their names are spelt differently.

Announcement: The Primal Blueprint Poster
Posted By Mark Sisson On March 26, 2010 @ 8:41 am In Announcements | 26 Comments
You can now get a copy of The Primal Blueprint Poster [7]. It is officially on sale for $14.95. The shipping and handling costs are on me unless you are outside of the U.S.

Animals Riding Animals is hot in 2015 – it's the latest thing.
I'm the King of the World! YOLO!
Animals Riding Animals is hot in 2015 – it's the latest thing.
I'm the King of the World! YOLO!
Poor CW Nevius is still smarting over the drubbing he took over "This isn't Oakland." Check it:
See how that works? You all need to check in with CW himself before you criticize him – that's the rule. It's a kind of YOU DON'T KNOW ME! defense, one supposes.
So that's the context.
Now look! San Francisco Chronicle's right-of-center Everyman has lurched across the aisle with this recent effort about the local history of the Gay Olympics / Gay Games:
S.F. backstory to Olympics' new policy on gays, by C.W. Nevius
Now here's your real back story. First, bone up on this:
And then see the court case that explains why the term Gay Games is kosher but Gay Olympics isn't. A 7-2 decision, more or less:
San Francisco Arts & Athletics, Inc. v. United States Olympic Committee
Here's my point – what Nevius is saying is that the USOC's effort to defend its "brand" back in the 1970's was "pointless." Except the USOC won and now the Gay Olympics is known as the Gay Games and life goes on.
Do you want to get into why the IOC / USOC and all the other OC's of the world tolerate people using a term like "Redneck Olympics," at least until it grows into a big event? Be my guest.
(Oh, but wait, the official name of that event in Georgia is now the Redneck Games. Is the USOC against rednecks? IDK.)
Speaking of points, here's one:
Mess with the Olympic brand long enough and you just might end up with a lien on your house.
Which is fair enough, I suppose.
(And actually, the USOC lifted the lien anyway.)
Hey remember what CW Nevius had to say before the disastrous 34th America's Cup came to town? He called it:
"a wonderful opportunity without a downside."
Except we ended up with a lot of downsides.
And now he's cheerleading for the 2024 Olympics to come to town. And while he's doing that, he criticizes the USOC for stuff from a third of a decade ago.
Of course, he could criticize the current USOC, but no, Nevius doesn't want to do that.
Hey look, it's gay rights champion Vladimir Putin chilling with CW Nevius hero Larry "The Good" Probst:
And when was this shot taken, was it a third of a century ago?
Oh no, it was this year.
Oh well.
1. The Apology. Normally I'd just do a retweet but I've been blocked from doing just that, so here's a back-and-forth on the recent "This isn't Oakland" bit:
Now actually, in defense of The Nevius, I think he was merely channeling what the SFPD brass had to say, as Nevius is wont to do, about comparing the SFPD response to a protest situation vs. how the OPD handled things in the recent past. So the "stood aside and let the looting and window shattering play out" comment just might have been a reference to comments made a few years back by the Oakland Mayor or by the OPD. So the "this isn't Oakland" stinger could have been referring to that.
In any event, even the Nevius Wife didn't like the Oakland Comment, so Nevius apologized on Twitter (and maybe ten people read it). It's a real apology, but it was made to just a handful of people.
2. Nevius the Union Activist. Check out this recent bit about San Francisco taxi drivers and then ponder this:
In his own personal life, CW Nevius is a union activist. Like, he goes to meetings 'n stuff
That means he's not just a union member, oh no. I've been a union member, but I wasn't no shop steward, I wasn't no agitator the way CW Nevius is in some kind of media guild thing.
So, isn't it ironic, dontcha think, that union activist CW Nevius takes such an anti Labor tone?
3. Nevius the right of center megaphone for the San Francisco's dominant right of center political faction. I'm specifically referring to this bit about Stow Lake Boat House.
He goes on and on about how great the Stow Lake Boat House is now:
And now it looks terrific, and I haven't heard a word of complaint.
IRL, not a whole bunch has changed there. Tourists come, pay their money, get a boat for an hour, and then do a lap around Strawberry Hill on Stow Artificial Pond.
(Of course, CW Nevius is a newcomer to San Francisco, so he missed out on most of the action at Stow Lake.)
In any event, yes, the opposition to the new vendor was absurd, but that doesn't prove his point that all opposition to the corrupt right of center political Establishment is absurd. Let's take a look:
At yet, at the end of the day, not only do we end up doing the right thing, everyone seems to move on and forget and forgive.
So what, did "we" do "the right thing" voting down 8 Washington – did we "forget and forgive" "at the end of the day?" Mmm… Moving on.
Now here's a load of BS:
To Park Commission President Mark Buell, that's not just a theory. He's lived it. "When I became president, I was given some advice," he said. "I was told there were four things I would never get accomplished: getting a new vendor at Stow Lake, closing the recycling center at Golden Gate Park, charging a visitors fee at the arboretum, and putting artificial turf at the Beach Chalet soccer fields."
All right, note the passive voice here in the quote from an area right of center apparatchik. Who said these words? Oh, you don't want to say? Oh, your quote only discusses your victories and leaves out your losses? So, how did the unnamed person making this quote know back then what you would "get accomplished?" I don't know, you could put Mark Buell through a polygraph session to prove that he believes all this stuff, but it doesn't mean his memory is correct.
And actually, it was a piece of cake to get a new vendor at Stow Lake. Somebody paid a lobbyist $10k a month for months and months to lobby the Board of Supervisors. That's the source of this "accomplishment."
And is closing a recycling center at the request of millionaire NIMBY homeowners an "accomplishment?" IDK.
And is clearing out out-of-towners at Strybing Arboretum an "accomplishment? Not really. RPD wanted to pay more than a million dollars to build two kiosks to pay workers minimum wage to collect seven dollars a head? Yes. And how have things worked out? Well, the number of visitors has fallen dramatically. Is that a good thing? Well, in the eyes of millionaires who like plants more than people, the answer is yes.
I disagree.
IMO, is it short-sighted to fuck over Helene Strybing by renaming the joint and throwing up a paywall in a fruitless pursuit to make the place "world-class," to impress all the arboretum societies Back East? Yes.
And while I don't personally object to the new soccer fields at the Beach Chalet, that doesn't mean that all is well with the political faction that runs Rec and Park. Hey, how about putting parking meters in all over GGP? Wasn't that an "accomplishment" that the right of center faction wanted? Hell yes. But we don't have no meters, huh? And the whole issue is forgotten now? How convenient!
Moving on, to San Mateo County:
He might have added saving the Sharp Park Golf Course in Pacifica.
I know why SF runs a jail complex and an international airport in San Mateo County, but I don't know why on Earth it runs a golf course. Perhaps SF should get rid of it? Is that on the table? No? All right.
His point, of course, was that while each of those initiatives proved to be controversial and difficult, they've all been accomplished…
My point is, of course, is that this a highly biased view of the recent history of the RPD.
Moving on to another falsehood:
"Think about the (AT&T) ballpark," Buell said. "How many people fought the idea of a downtown ballpark? And once it is built, everybody takes credit for it."
This sounds like the way people talk when they're drunk, boasting at a bar. It's not based on reality.
And here's the stinger, from the newcomer who just moved here, who wanted to move here:
Don't look for logic. It's just how we do things.
Is simple-minded CW Nevius, the Fallacy Spewing Machine, on the side of "logic," really?
OK fine.
I'll tell you, I used to live in the Sunset District, for a short time, when I was in my twenties, and now I'm in my forties and most of what I remember is the relentless fog.
Here's what I'm talking about.
And these days, I keep hearing from the current residents, the Fog Truthers, people who Deny The Fog.
Oh well. Having dispensed with the Fog Issue, here's your view of Strawberry Hill / Strawberry Island, looking down (up?) 17th Avenue, on a dreaded sunny day:
Some people in the Sunset go there every day / every week, so good for them.
And all the Airbnb'ers of the Funset should get on over there as well, if only just once.
So there, I've said something nice about the Sunset…
Here you go, here's the former "Save Stow Lake" website – this is where the "evil" language comes from.
One problem is that old vendor, the entity that the Save Stow Lake people wanted to "save," charged too much money, starting about five or six years ago. For example, the old vendor would charge $19 per hour for some pretty busted up row boats.
The current rate is back down to $14 per hour:
And this is the cafe seating area, which doesn't seem to get used too much. (The worry some people had was that this would become a high-end destination restaurant with concomitant traffic and parking hassles.)
Rec and Park has a lot of issues, IMO, and I'm unafraid to criticize it, certainly. But I didn't see what the big beef was about putting the boat house contract out for bid. And of course, I still don't.
As seen on Strawberry Hill at Stow Lake in Golden Gate Park, back when there was an ornamental fan palm at the south end of the northern bridge:

This is the post from a while back – lots of comments are there.
Your crows, ravens, and blackbirds of Golden Gate Park just won't tolerate the presence of raptors.
They can't abide.

"Here's your route profile, starting from the SoMA near the bay going all the way to the breakers of Ocean Beach. See that big incline just before mile marker three? That's the vaunted Hayes Street Hill. (And actually, the highest part of Hayes Street on this part of the course is near Pierce, not "at Fillmore and Steiner" and not "between Fillmore and Sutter.")
And actually, that part of Hayes peaks at around 260 feet, not 215:
Now, here's your winner. It's the 270-something foot high saddle on JFK Jr. Drive betwixt Prayer Book Cross and Stow Lake / Strawberry Hill, where "Kennedy" is written:
"Race organizers and media have reported that the course records set by Sammy Kitwara in 2009 and Lineth Chepkurui in 2010 are also world records at the 12 km distance;[31] however, the International Association of Athletics Federations, the international governing body for the sport of athletics/track and field, does not recognize world records or world bests in either an indoor or outdoor 12 km.[32] The Association of Road Racing Statisticians, a non-regulatory group that collects road running data, does recognize world records in the outdoor 12 km provided that the race course meets certain criteria.[33][34] In order to rule-out the possibility of wind assistancein point-to-point courses, the ARRS stipulates that the course must have "not more than 30% of the race distance separation between that start and finish", or 3.6 km for a 12 km race.[34] Given that the Bay to Breakers is run on a point-to-point course in which the start and finish of the event are approximately 10.5 linear kilometers apart, the ARRS recognizes two other marks as 12 km world records: Kenyan Simon Kigen's 33:46 in Portland, Oregon on May 19, 1985 and Chepkurui's 38:10 at the 2010Lilac Bloomsday Run.[33][nb 2]
HERE'S THE OFFICIAL ESTIMATE: "…more than in the hundreds but less than tens of thousands." THE REAL NUMBER IS TENS OF THOUSANDS.
"The Bay to Breakers is known for the large number of unregistered runners, or "bandits", who participate in the race. Ross Mirkarimi, a member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, reported that over half of the 60,000 participants in the 2010 Bay to Breakers were unregistered.[19] San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom was among the runners in 2010 who did not pay the registration fee to obtain a race number.[19][22] Registered participation was 24,430 in 2010,[23] 43,954 in 2011,[24] 23,072 for 2012,[25], and approximately 20,000 for 2013.[26]"
I'll tell you, I'm not exactly sure when the tow away signs went up for this year's historic Bay to Breakers street party – maybe it was today.
No matter, hundreds of cars are going to get towed this Saturday and Sunday.
It's going to be epic.
Here are the streets to not park your car upon.
Sometimes they give you a week's notice, but not this year I don't think.
Click to expand
Let's review.
Before we can have this…
…or this…
From hard-working Steve Nguyen
…we're going to have to have this:
(I remember it as if it were just two years ago…)
"The Great Tow of 2011:
One car gets away in the nick of time, but three others aren't so lucky:
Ted and Al's had like ten yellow tow trucks ready to go late Saturday night, in the driving rain. (Note how Bank of America is protecting its windows – the IndyBay crowd got to them, smashy smashy, about a year or so back, unrelated to Bay to Breakers.)
Now, speaking of prêt-à-porters, this is the main body, this is the largest array for the Golden Gate Park Panhandle:
And here's the second-biggest grouping, along Masonic:
And there are some on the other side of Fell, typically in groups of six on some of the blocks.
But that's it.
Not sure where B2B is hiding their 1000+ portable toilets claimed for 2011, at this point, just hours before the Kenyans take off on their winning runs.
Oh well.
And there's no sign of the fencing neither, except for what they have every year.
We'll see.
The Great Fence of B2B100 is supposed to have upon it either images of Christ hand-selected by P. Anschutz or photos of people who ran the race before white NIMBYs moved into the Western Addition. (You'll have to tell me about it…). Anyway, here's the baby fencing they have on scene already along with, and isn't this cute, a message from San Francisco Natives for a Fun and Buzzed Bay to Breakers. Apparently, the cops can't arrest for an open container in San Francisco…
And doesn't this just break your heart – this Vespa scooter has been forgotten on the slopes of the famed Hayes Street Hill, the second highest point on the "racecourse." Will Auto-Return charge $700 for its return?
Remember, Transit First.
All right, have a great Bay to Breakers 100!

Television hit it's 'golden' years in America in the 1950's, but has been around for much longer. In 1935 it was the stuff of science fiction and wonder, like in the movie Murder by Television (October 1, 1935)
Thanks to crude Kinescope copies, and the later use of pre-recorded shows using movie cameras, we can explore the first wonderful years of this invention that helped change the world. I am assembling the largest collection of early television shows that is organized by genre and by date, in one place, that you can watch, download, save and burn to dvd. I hope that you enjoy the early years of the great 'boob toob' as much as I do. Below you can see what I've been up to lately, and under that you can see a list of every television series that I have posted so far. If you have questions or comments, or just want to say 'hi', contact me and I will answer every note to the best of my ability.
Complete list of early television shows on this web site:
If you are part of the 'Baby Boom' generation you remember many of these shows as a youngster. If you are a child or grandchild of this generation, you can see what entertained your parents and grandparents when they were young. More and more classic television shows are identified as public domain every day, and I will be adding them to this site in easy to download and view formats, so come back often to check out the new additions. If any copyright or patent owner has an issue with any show offered here, they only need to contact me and the offending item will be quickly removed.

There are a many places that offer kebabs of various kinds in the Arlington area. This is one of the best that delivers. We ordered a couple of dishes. The kadai lamb is spicy just the way that you would find it in South Asia. The chicken kebabs are also tender and juicy. The naan was delivered soft and fluffy, which was a pleasant surprise. The raita (yoghurt salad), babagannoush, and chhole (chickpeas) were also very flavorful. Overall, we were impressed and will definitely order from here again.

TIP-32: Have a Backup Plan
Since your information could be lost or compromised (due to an equipment malfunction, an error, or an attack), make regular backups of your information so that you still have clean, complete copies. Backups also help you identify what has been changed or lost. If your computer has been infected, it is important to remove the infection before resuming your work.

News Brief
Department of Homeland security (DHS) has
awarded a CONTRACT TO GNS, INC. to provide INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
Rockville, MD-
Global Network Systems, Inc.
(GNS), an IT solution provider, specializing in information
assurance, network design and IV&V services, has been awarded a DEPARTMENT
OF HOMELAND SECURITY (DHS) contract to provide INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
INDEPENDENT VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION (IV&V) SUPPORT SERVICES to the
Office of Infrastructure Protection (OIP) responsible for managing the
Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) regulatory program.
DHS Revs Up Its Part Of The Cyber Executive Order
The Homeland Security Department will take the first step to move from
theory to practice under President Barack Obama's cyber executive order.
DHS' National Protections and Programs directorate in two weeks will launch
a voluntary program for companies to improve the security of their computers
and networks.
"We will be launching what we call the voluntary program on Feb. 14,
enabling companies of all sizes to follow some basic cybersecurity policies
and due care that have been designed through the framework by the best
scientists in the private sector and the government that we have. [We are]
looking at how we can incentivize companies, again of all sizes, to be more
secure, to enable big companies to share their best practices, to drive markets for small
to medium to enable economies of scale for companies that are smaller and
may not be able to afford to now have very good cybersecurity, [and] to have
a cybersecurity policy," said Phyllis Schneck, the deputy undersecretary for
cybersecurity at NPPD, in an exclusive interview with Federal News Radio.
"When I say to adopt the framework, that's to voluntarily either improve
your cybersecurity posture, follow some of the recommendations, engage in
our website portal, even if it's just to look at a critical infrastructure
resilience review. [There is] no need to report to us, but we want companies
of all sizes, the federal government and state and local to be more secure,
and we are committed to doing everything we can do get that framework
adopted. And that means helping companies not only adopt policy, but drive
markets to make good technology."
DHS will release the new voluntary program shortly after the National
Institute of Standards and Technology releases version 1 of the critical
infrastructure cybersecurity framework, which is due by Feb. 13.
President Barack Obama issued an executive order in February 2013 detailing
steps the government and industry would take together to
improve cybersecurity
in both sectors.
The General Services Administration and the Defense Department delivered on
another Executive Order requirement last week with the
release of six recommendations
for improving how agencies integrate cybersecurity into federal procurement

This was the scene in a Purley street this morning just hours after people were evacuated from their homes in a late night rescue.
The evacuation of 22 people from a block of flats and a care home in Dale Road at about 12.30am was a precautionary measure due to water overflowing from the Bourne river.
Eighteen of the evacuees are in a temporary rest centre at Croydon Council's headquarters in Bernard Weatherill House, Mint Walk, Croydon.
Four people made their own arrangements to stay with relatives.
Councillor Steve Hollands, who lives in Dale Road, said: "Last night when I got home the water level was high in the lower part of the road and we made sure we got some sandbags and tankers to pump out the water.
"It was about six or 7in deep but then by about 7.30am the water level was a lot higher."
But the Kenley ward councillor said tomorrow's weather should not be as bad.
He said: "The briefing I have had so far is that there will be a respite tomorrow and then some bad weather on Friday.
"It is difficult to tell which way it is going to go."
