Pruned my hedge and saved $400
Took me three days with a bow saw and some loppers, but I got it done. Just like the landscaping company did to the very tall privet hedge on down last February for $400. This piece of privet hedge borders the courtyard garden, I trimmed it 3 - 4' back from the road. Finished this morning.
Actually my trusty bow saw that I used for everything broke apart on the first day. :( The pieces disappeared into the heap of branch debris. So yesterday I went to the hardware and bought me a real pruning saw. Used it for the first time this morning and the work went SO much faster.
Now to get the stuff hauled away. As I cut I laid it down in a row right along side me on the side of the road (see photo). This part of my privet is the oldest, my Uncle having planted it probably in the 1950's- 60's(?). Altho it's always been able to take a beating (a snow plow leveled it one winter by throwing heavy snow on it), I'm hoping it rebounds one more time.
So that project is done.
Holy moly!
Great job. I've had to rip out a few monster privets 2yrs ago. It's no easy task. We had to use a backhoe to get all the roots and it still tried to grow back from the few we missed. I'm sure yours will come back with a vengeance.
:) Laura
Thanks Laura. I really don't want to shear off the top, but I wonder if I should at least this time. When the landscapers did the other stretch of tall privet I told them not to take any off the top. Well, the top growth is starting to arch just like it does on the other side (that creates the privet arch or tunnel). Those branches are so high up that I can not reach them probably even with a ladder, besides being a little dangerous to do so. I'm thinking I'm going to have to hire someone else to shear anything arching towards the road.
The row of hedge I pruned myself is shorter and I could reach the top with a ladder. Not sure I'm up to the challenge quite this soon after all the other work.
It's this saw, but I bought it at my local True Value Hardware store not Home Depot.
But guess what? The top nut and bolt fell out and was lost after about an hour of use! the second saw I'd broken. I continued to use it though and it worked fine. After I finished the job, I took it back to the hardware store and showed them what happened. Since they know me well, I didn't need to dig the receipt out of the garbage bag; and they are giving me a new saw next Friday. I had bought the last one so they had to reorder. I was going to have them just put another bolt in it, but hey, I was finished with my current project and I might as well get a new saw right?
I think the neighbors below me are going to haul the debris across to their property and burn it. I had called them last night but they must have gone camping so I left a message. I saw them drive past the house this afternoon with a trailer with 3 ATVs on it. They slowed down and were looking at all the branches piled up. Bet they use that trailer. I'll go out and help them whenever they come. Not today, it's been raining all day since early this morning.
Oh believe me when I was pruning the hedge I took a break whenever I felt tired or really hot. Went into the garden and sat down. Had a water bottle too. I'm surprised I didn't get injured - I usually do! a few scratches but at least I didn't stumble around and fall. lol The first day I worked from 11am. until 6pm.
Here is a link that might be useful: this pruning saw
LOL I'm a winner! No, I only did the last couple yards with the new pruning saw and loppers. I used a bow saw and loppers on most of it. Both saws worked better on live branches than on dead growth.
Kept hearing a noise earlier this afternoon while watching TV, like a motor revving up. Finally I muted the TV and looked out the window and noticed some of the hedge trimmings gone. I ran out the front door and here the neighbors had picked up all those piles and put them on a trailer and were ready to leave. I scolded them and said "I was going to help you with that!" They just laughed and said it took no time at all. I couldn't thank them enough.
Thanks mnwsgal. Here it is after cleanup and mowing. See the other length of hedge further down? That was pruned back the same way in February of this year and look how it has greened up already. And I swear the piece I just pruned seems to have new growth coming out already too.
Oh and got my new saw yesterday. Used it to hack off the branches at the very beginning which I skipped the last time.

There is a huge advantage to not drinking your food. If you ate those items for breakfast -- chewing and all -- instead of drinking them it is likely you would have higher satiety. Summary: none of the above. Eat your food; drink water. (more)

Another Boston Bombing Mystery: Who Is @Al_FirdausiA?
Originally published on Wed April 24, 2013 8:31 pm
(Andy Carvin, NPR's senior strategist for social media, sends us this dispatch about a Twitter account that may hold clues in understanding the surviving Boston bombing suspect.)
Social media became a large part of the story last week as amateur sleuths scoured the Internet for clues about the Boston Marathon bombing suspects. After several fake Twitter accounts supposedly connected with the suspects were discounted, NPR and other news organizations identified one account, @J_tsar, as being connected with the surviving bombing suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev. He followed less than 100 people on Twitter, and one of the most recent accounts he followed is one called @Al_FirdausiA. In fact, Tsarnaev was the first to follow that account, which in the Twitter world usually signals a strong personal connection. Using a Storify, we detailed the connections and possible significance of the account:

Community Radios
We support community radio stations in Kenya for the purpose of enabling them to take their rightful place as a distinct sector of the media that addresses pertinent and pressing issues at the grassroots communities.
Radio is acknowledged as the most widespread electronic communications' device in the world, a unique, most convenient and affordable means of reaching the world's populace, even in very remote areas. Nearly all Kenyans are radio listeners and it is from radio that they source news and information. For most local communities who are poor community radio has revolutionized the manner in which they express their culture, receive entertainment, news information as well as engage in dialogue and development.
ATA NAYECHE FM "is a Community Based FM Radio Station started by NTG-Kakuma that aims at promoting peace activities among the Host Refugee and the Refugees.
Bus Radio is another new community radio located in Ongata Rongai, Kajiado county. The station serves some 687,312 people living in Kajiado county. The radio is currently off-air due to transmitter problem but the station volunteers are still producing programmes and sharing online (on soundcloud).
Baliti FM is a community radio initiative among the ethnic groups in Isiolo aimed at ensuring that information reaches the population of Isiolo County with content, and in a language, that they understand. It broadcasts on 102.7FM from Isiolo town. It was started in 2012 by the Foundation for Women Pastoralists (FOPAWO) in collaboration with the local community.
Mtaani radio is the newest community radio station in Kenya located at Kivuli Centre, Riruta
Satellite, Nairobi. Setup by Koinonia Media Centre, the station seeks to offer the youth an opportunity to produce programmes of their own that will articulate their aspirations and inculcate positive behaviour change.
The Ekialo Kiona Suba Youth Radio or EK-FM is a for-youth,by-youth community radio station on Mfangano Island, Kenya. Broadcasting in Suba language, EK FM affords a unique channel to target the health crisis and marginalization of the Abasuba people through expression, solidarity, and revitalization of heritage and culture. The radio is currently off air due to transmitter problem. More info about EK :http://organichealthresponse.org/
The radio, operating as Rware 101.7 FM has a broadcasting radius of 35km and reception of its signal cover areas in Karatina, Tetu, Naromoru and the environs. More info: http://rwarefm.co.ke
Ghetto FM was started in July 2007. It is a project of the Slums Information Development Resource Centres (SIDAREC), an organisation formed to mobilize slum communities – particularly youth – to take part in development. Ghetto FM was started to primarily serve Pumwani slum. Pumwani is home to some 60,000 to 100,000 people.
Mwanedu Radio transmits from Vuria Hills in Taita Taveta County in the Coastal region of Kenya. It was established in 2000 and originally broadcasted all content in the Kitaita language.
Radio Mangelete is the second oldest community radio station in Kenya after Homa Bay Community Radio. It went on air on February 22, 2004 at 10.46 am with the slogan "wasya wa maendeleo" (voice ofdevelopment).
Pamoja FM is located at Ayanyi Estate near the railway bridge in Kibra, the largest slum in Nairobi. Pamoja, which means "together" in Swahili, and its staff of volunteers provide news and information to some 1.2 million people living in Kibra.

(I feel like I'm missing something important here.)
I'm creating a WCF Data Service (5.0) using the "database first" approach for the entities.
I've created tables with "namespaced" names, using the

[Entertainment.Event] and
The EF 4.x POCO generator template of course knocks these out, via the call to
I'd like very much to generate (and regenerate, and appropriately map) namespaced POCOs; specifically, preserving the implied namespaces of the tables.
What am I looking at as far as accomplishing this? I'm guessing it will involve awhile's worth of swimming through T4 templates.
Ultimately, is this doable?

I'm now on my third different brand of tempered glass screen protector for the G3. Each one has installed fine and looked great. But after a few weeks, each one started to develop an air bubble in the exact same spot. It is on the first right side along the edge about 1/3 from the top. The bubbles have consistently been about 3/4 of an inch long and cannot be pressed out. After it happened the first time, I assumed there was simply an adhesive issue with that particular brand. When it happened with the next one, I thought maybe there was dirt or oil built up on the spot and gave the whole screen a strenuous cleaning. But now it has happened again with the third protector and I'm extremely frustrated to the point where I'm considering going back to the old school, non-glass protectors.
Has anyone else been hit with this same problem?

Minnesota is starting to get a bit of presidential campaign attention.
Second Lady Jill Biden is returning to Minnesota on this week, according to the Obama campaign, and Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan fund-raised in Minneapolis last weekend.
Biden will "deliver remarks at a canvass kick-off event in Minneapolis and a canvass thank-you event in Duluth, Minnesota," Saturday, the Obama campaign said. She will also attend an evening fundraiser in Minneapolis Friday with donors spending $100-$1,000 per person.
Biden was in Minnesota last month, too.
Meanwhile, NBC News reporter Chuck Todd tweeted that the Obama campaign had added Minnesota to its national radio ad program. That's almost more presidential paid media than the state has seen -- none of the four Twin Cities network stations have reported any ad buys from either the Obama or Romney campaigns, although there have been some outstate ads targeted at nearby swing states.
So far, all public polls have shown Obama with a significant lead in Minnesota.
But the latest private poll, completed for American Future Fund, early this month found President Barack Obama with only a four percentage point advantage over Mitt Romney. That would put Obama's lead within the poll's margin of error. American Future Fund has spent millions opposing Democrats and supporting Republicans, including ads on Minnesota television stations.
Correction: An earlier version of this post had the wrong day for Biden's public events. This version is correct.

Brake repair gone wrong, I think?
I had a brake job done a few moths ago at a natinally known shop. I got the full works including ceramic pads and rotors in the front and turned rotors and ceramic pads on the back. Now at @ 62300 miles on my van, and I don't ride the brakes, one caliper in the back is shot and has wrecked the rotor and pads. The caliper piston is moving in and out at an angle and is not moving freely so it is craking, burning, and unevenly wearing the pads, warping the rotor and squeeking. I think it was not properly seated when it was reinstalled after the brake job and the shop should repair it under the 2 year warantee I got on the work. If their error caused the failure I think they should have to replace the rear calipers, rotors, and pads under the warantee on both sides since you don't fix one side without fixing the other. Am I right or am I full of beans.
By design, the caliper piston cannot be caused to move in and out of the caliper bore on an angle. There is simply not enough room for that to happen. However dirt and corrosion which would have made it necessary to replace the caliper when the brakes were realigned could have gone undetected because it isn't visible under the outer dust boot. Keep in mind too that a second possible cause for the pads now wearing on a taper are the caliper slides. When you step on the brake not only does the piston push the inner pad against the rotor, it causes the outer pad to be squeezed against the rotor as well because the entire caliper shifts in response to the pressure that the piston is exerting on the inner pad. If one of the slides is not operating correctly, it could cause the caliper to twist as the brakes get applied.
The problem is, did the shop recommend replacement calipers or at the least caliper slide service when the brakes were done? What we have here I suspect is the classic problem of the shop trying to save you money when they should not have. OR. They did in fact recommend the caliper replacement or slide service, but when giving you options, for one reason or another the replacement of them was declined by you. Right now there is no way to know from our (my) perspective. If the shop didn't advise you replace the calipers, because they operate in an honest fashion and had no proof they were genuinely needed they did on fact do exactly what they should have done. As the saying goes "stuff happens" VBG. Work with them, get your car fixed and move on. JMHO.
I agree with John g. What cause me concern was you mentioning using a nationally known shop. There are some nationally known shops that I would not go to ... even ones that just do oil changes. I have done the brakes on my cars/trucks one of three ways: dealership, good local mechanic, or myself...depending on the vehicle. Our newest vehicle went to the dealer during the warranty period, the next vehicle my wife drives to the local mechanic, and my 28 year old little foreign commuter I do myself.

Specificity Improvement for Network Distributed Physiologic Alarms Based on a Simple Deterministic Reactive Intelligent Agent in the Critical Care Environment
Rent the article at a discountRent now
* Final gross prices may vary according to local VAT.Get Access
Automated physiologic alarms are available in most commercial physiologic monitors. However, due to the variability of data coming from the physiologic sensors describing the state of patients, false positive alarms frequently occur. Each alarm requires review and documentation, which consumes clinicians' time, may reduce patient safety through 'alert fatigue' and makes automated physician paging infeasible. To address these issues a computerized architecture based on simple reactive intelligent agent technology has been developed and implemented in a live critical care unit to facilitate the investigation of deterministic algorithms for the improvement of the sensitivity and specificity of physiologic alarms. The initial proposed algorithm uses a combination of median filters and production rules to make decisions about what alarms to generate. The alarms are used to classify the state of patients and alerts can be easily viewed and distributed using standard network, SQL database and Internet technologies. To evaluate the proposed algorithm, a 28 day study was conducted in the University of Michigan Medical Center's 14 bed Cardiothoracic Intensive Care Unit. Alarms generated by patient monitors, the intelligent agent and alerts documented on patient flow sheets were compared. Significant improvements in the specificity of the physiologic alarms based on systolic and mean blood pressure was found on average to be 99% and 88% respectively. Even through significant improvements were noted based on this algorithm much work still needs to be done to ensure the sensitivity of alarms and methods to handle spurious sensor data due to patient or sensor movement and other influences.
