|Bayesian updating
Yo Mathlete,
Starting odds of victory at 50% for every game doesn't strike me as particularly reasonable. Could you build in some bayesian updating to your model, perhaps using Vegas odds as your prior?
|32 weeks 2 days ago
|yes, that's right. One
yes, that's right.
One way to think about this is that the initial regression results were estimated using the smallest bins possible (i.e., one bin per observation). By binning, we artificially boost the R^2, and also introduce some bias in the regression estimates. This suggests that the first model should be the one we use to predict, not the last model (though we probably shouldn't put too much stock in these predictions anyway).
For DG, we have:
78.564 - .5677 × 146.1 = -4.37697
Less bad...
|32 weeks 2 days ago
|Binning and R^2
I don't think your binning/averaging approach works. It only compresses the data around the best fit line, which simply reduces the variance to be explained. Given the definition of R^2, it's not surprising at all to see its value jump near 1.
If you're worried about outliers and high leverage points, try using some form of robust regression (e.g., M-estimator). Though to be honest, I'm really not sure that would be worth it: to my eye, the plots don't seem to reveal any huge outlier issues.
Overall, I would say a .31 R^2 is actually pretty impressive given that this is just a bivariate relationship.

Plywood, Wood Plant ComDust Investigations Top Week's Reports
By Bill Esler | Posted: 12/06/2012 11:00AM
click image to zoomNederman provided this image of sawdust ash. The company provides systems for abatement, control and collection for conversion of sawdust into biofuel or MDF. http://www.nederman.com/problems-we-solve/resource-management/wood-waste Combustible sawdust turned up in unacceptable levels in 48 of 83 wood and forest products plants inspected in British Columbia this summer, says the Vancouver Sun newspapers.
While the government agency WorkSafeBC had been inspecting sawmills and later plywood, pulp and secondary wood products firms, the newspaper's freedom of information request named names and forced more public disclosure by the agency.
Plywood firms (West Fraser and Tolko are just two examples) were ordered to clean up; as well as secondary wood products manufacturers (some examples are C&C Wood, Teal Cedar, and Northern Engineered Wood Products). A complete list is at this link.
Combustible dust explosions racked two British Columbia sawmills earlier this year, killing four and injuring 52 others. This week the government said it would fine the Babine Sawmill - owned by Portland, OR-based Hampton Affiliates, and Lakeland Mills $625,000 each. Attorneys may bring charges against management with possible jail terms of 6 months.
Babine owners Hampton Affiliates announced December 4 it would rebuild and reopen the mill by 2014, regardless of the legal outcomes. Steve Zika, Hampton's CEO says the new plant will be one-third smaller owing to less low ability will have the ability to cut metric and ALS dimension lumber for a variety of markets

Aston Villa () 1-2 Manchester United ()[Copy]
Back Sir Alex Ferguson's side to prevail 2-1 here, with the in-form Robin van Persie once more an obvious pick to open the scoring.
It would be no surprise to see another close encounter but Arsenal just fancied to edge a 2-1 victory, with Theo Walcott netting first.
West Bromwich(WBA) () 2-0 Southampton ()[Copy]
On-loan Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku will notch his fourth goal of season to help West Brom to 2-0 victory against struggling Saints.
Queens Park Rangers () 1-1 Reading ()[Copy]
Both teams desperately need their first league win but expect another draw, with Pavel Pogrebnyak scoring first in a 1-1 stalemate.
Expect Liverpool to continue their league improvement with a convincing 3-0 victory, with Luis Suarez the top tip to open the scoring.
West Ham United () 1-3 Manchester City ()[Copy]
Expect goals at both ends in an entertaining clash, with Man City's Carlos Tevez to strike first in a 3-1 away victory at West Ham.
Tottenham Hotspur () 3-0 Wigan Athletic ()[Copy]
Spurs will ease to a comfortable 3-0 victory against Wigan having been sent on their way by Gareth Bale's opener at White Hart Lane.
Swansea City () 1-2 Chelsea FC ()[Copy]
Back Oscar to net the opener for Chelsea as they run out comfortable 2-1 victors at the Liberty Stadium against inconsistent Swansea.
Sunderland () 1-1 Aston Villa ()[Copy]
Expect another stalemate here, with in-form Villa forward Christian Benteke opening the scoring in a 1-1 draw at the Stadium of Light.
Norwich City () 2-1 Stoke City ()[Copy]
These are the games Norwich need to win if they are to avoid a relegation tussle, so go for Wes Hoolahan to score first in 2-1 success.

Registration opens Thursday, April 2!
Mark your calendars for our 50th Reunion - June 5-7. We are hard at work planning the details for our milestone reunion. If you have ideas for what you would like to see during the weekend, please email us!
Review your class schedule to see the numerous activities planned for the weekend. Continue visiting this page for updates as we get closer to the weekend.
Reunion unofficially begins Thursday evening. We will have a very informal gathering in the town of Davidson. Then Friday morning, the official Reunion Weekend festivities begin! Learn from Davidson faculty and alumni through the back-to-school classes. Take advantage of tours of the campus, tours of the Davidson art collection, and tours of the Davidson farm. Then we'll gather with the other eleven classes back for Reunion during the all-alumni Reunion Kick-off party in the College Union. After enjoying the festivities, we will head to our own class dinner to catch up with one another. Saturday will be another full day with the alumni cake race, a gathering just for our class, an all alumni lunch on Chambers lawn, and one more class dinner to wrap up this milestone weekend.
We look forward to seeing each of you in June!

For our 50th Reunion Class Gift, we celebrate the many ways '65 supports the college. This includes:
However you choose to participate, our Class Gift offers a unique opportunity to support the area of Davidson most meaningful to you and say "thank you" to alma mater by making a special gift in honor of your time on campus. Your gift also preserves the Davidson experience for current and future students.
Realizing that the majority of donors choose to support the college through The Fund for Davidson, our class is making a special effort for increased goals to The Fund this year. Several anonymous classmates have pledged a $50,000 Challenge Gift, provided the rest of the class follows their lead and raises $100,000. By meeting their challenge, we can meet our goal and provide the school with $150,000 to be used this year. Don't forget to make your gift today!
On Nov. 15, 2014, Davidson launched a $425 million campaign, a goal the college aims to reach in the next five years. Since all gifts, pledges and planned gifts made during the reunion year will also count for the campaign, please visit the Game Changers campaign website to learn about college priorities and to recommend a Game Changer.
If you have questions about your reunion gift, please email the Annual Giving Office or call 704-894-2680.

An innocent, unborn baby
is not a parasite. I find what you said truly offensive and as far as I'm concerned shows an utter contempt for the right to life.
But since you insist on your babble, the answer is: if you don't want to do the time, don't commit the crime.
If Tyranny and Oppression come to this land, it will be in the guise of fighting a foreign enemy.

Mack Miller
Andrew Markley "Mack" Miller (born October 15, 1931) is a former American cross-country skier and trainer.
Mack Miller was national champion cross country skiing of 1955[1] and represented the United States in the Winter Olympics of 1956 and 1960.[2][3] In between, in 1958 he was the highest-ranked American cross-country skier in the Nordic Championship.[4] Along with Sven Johansson from Anchorage, Mack Miller was the most prominent American cross country skier of his era.[5] (Sven Johansson, however, could represent the United States only in the 1960 Olympics because of his naturalization process.)
Mack Miller was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. He is the son of the late children's fiction author Helen Markley Miller. Mack and his sport formed the inspiration for Mrs. Miller's sixth novel, Ski fast, ski long.
Mack Miller studied at Western State College of Colorado. He represented the university in various cross-country skiing tournaments.[6]
Mack Miller and his wife Rita live in Idaho. They engaged in potato farming. They have a son, Ralph, and a daughter, Karla.[7]
- 1956 Competes in Olympic Men's 4x10 km Cross-country Ski Relay, ranked 12th with personal time in the 2nd leg of 0:37:22 and total team time of 2:32:04. Relay teammates were Ted Farwell, Larry Damon and Marvin Crawford.[8]

Love all your photos. Would like to order the picture we talked about. I can't stop thinking about your comment and what you had thought of when I asked for prints.
Thanks so much for the laugh. I am still laughing and will never forget the look on your face. Could you please print up two pictures for me. Both of them I would like to be 8 X 10. Thank you.

Bring Your Green Thumb Indoors This WinterBy Neal Mays |
With winter weather patterns just around the corner, most gardeners are finished with outdoor projects. Healthy house plants are a beautiful addition to any indoor living space.

Perception can be a tricky thing when it comes to science. A flock of birds flying overhead may appear to negate the finding of their endangered status, or it could be the last flock of passenger pigeons in your neighborhood – a glimpse before their 1914 extinction.

Plenty of people are exposed to the outdoors briefly every day. However, for many of them, it takes a bit more than encounters with nature to inspire respect and love.

Build Log
Unionville 6' Beaver
Hi all.
I am building a Unionville Beaver (6') kit inherited from a friend's son who had started it and completed about 10% of the build before tragically passing away a little over two years ago. In the kit were pictures of Harrison Ford's Beaver, N28S. I can only assume that he intended to use the same color scheme for this project. In his honor, I plan to do the same. I have the wings 90% completed and I am ready resume building the fuselage where my friend's son left off. He partially completed one side of the fuselage frame, so I have a lot of work left to go.
I have plenty of yellow covering and gray covering (I think it's Ultracote or Monokote) to match; however, I am having a hard time finding a dark green and light green that come close to matching the greens in the attached photos. Does anyone know where I can get covering that approximates the greens in these pix. I am trying to do a nice job on this, so your help is greatly appreciated.
|Dec 05, 2012, 07:32 PM
Yay! I found a match for the dark green (at least close enough for the girls I go with) at http://www.skywardhobbies.com
It's their "Grass Green" iron heat shrink film listed here:
I ordered a roll and it arrived today. Looks like it will do the trick.
Still meaning to post some pix of the progress soon.
|Dec 06, 2012, 10:19 PM
Here's some pix of the wing build so far...
|Dec 08, 2012, 07:40 PM
Progress continues, slowly...
|Dec 11, 2012, 10:08 PM
With only a little finishing sanding and filling left to do, the wingtips look sort of like wingtips, (sigh of relief)... By the way, this is my first set of carved tips ;-)
Other builders, do you see any major flaws that will prevent these from covering well? I am concerned how the gap between the leading and trailing edge sections will come out. What do you think? Thanks ;-)

Tom, I added wood between on the top of the tips for better looks.
(Mine used the OS .50 SX on floats and had a remote needle valve and Fowler type flaps)

I just thickened the actual edge of the tips 1/4" in and used Oracover which worked out nicely.
I also added diagonals to the fuselage frame just behind the wing bay.
|Dec 12, 2012, 11:25 AM
|Jan 07, 2013, 07:56 PM
Still slow going. Had a setback with the wing - something did not seem right to me about the waviness of the upper trailing edge. After discussing it with Unionville, I found out that I had incorrectly finished the upper trailing edges of the ribs (did not sand them flush with the aft 1/4 x 1/4 TEs), so I had to remove the upper rib-caps, the upper trailing edge 1/16" x 3/8" strips to redo it all. The wing is pretty much ready for cover and controls now, but I am holding off till the fuselage is built so I can fit everything first. I have finished the LH fuselage frame and have have fitted the landing gear block and the bottom block, "A". Hopefully in the next week or two, I'll have time make some real progress on the fuse. I am picking up a fuselage jig this week so I can hopefully build it straight.

Tom, best to plan your servo and pushrod layout early on to have them as far forward as possible.
I used 1/16 M.W. with 1" inner nyrod sections as fairleads spaced every 6 to 7 inches.
The O.S.remote needle valve was mounted on the bottom of the firewall. A Robart fueling system was mounted on its own bracket located on the upper left of the firewall. This allowed easy fueling and removal of cowl.
A Pitts type muffler was used to keep the slop low.
|Jan 08, 2013, 08:28 AM
Good point and thanks, Art. This bird will be electric and the jury is still out whether to go with 4S or 3S. MotoCalc shows a couple of different options for both. Other threads and users have provided some good ideas. The fuse is wide enough that I think I can make a side fuselage hatch and mount the battery sideways.
|Jan 22, 2013, 01:29 PM
Finally got to do some work on this project over the last week. Here are some pix from the fuselage assembly. I picked up a brand new R/C Gator fuselage jig from a guy on eBay. The jig had the jumbo uprights, but I have since cut three of them down so that I can proceed with the wing mounting. I am already convinced that a jig is a good thing to have for building; I could never get this assembly as straight as I did without it. I am using the seldom used Ryobi laser level I got for Father's day a few years ago to keep everything "on the beam" -- something I learned from perusing R/C Groups. It's even starting to look like an airplane.
|Jan 28, 2013, 10:17 PM
Quick update: I have completed lots of little fuselage detail. Firewall, wing mounts, rudder/elevator servo rails, and forward windshield/cowling frames are installed. I even installed the optional aft float fittings in case I ever want to try it on floats. I have carefully aligned the wing, located/drilled the aft mount holes, and am I almost ready to drill the holes for the forward wing dowels; I am just trying to figure out the best way project the center of the leading edge to the frame it butts up against. Any suggestions? I also contacted Callie-Graphics, and they are making me a set of 1/8-scale n-numbers and De Havilland logos for the tail along with a memorial sticker for the original builder. New pix to follow soon ;-)
|Jan 29, 2013, 08:57 PM
Some pix as promised from last night.

My husband and I got into geneology many years ago. We have compiled alot of information and are trying to get it in order. I am hoping to enter as many family members to this site as possible, along with friends that have passed. We have enjoyed doing this and now even more since we lost our son in 2001. People who lived and passed should be remebered always. It is a way of showing love and respect for them and the lives they led and allowing us to follow in their foot steps, and keep their memory alive.I guess one of the reasons I am so happy to be apart of this wonderful site, is that I do not want my son Ryan's memory to be forgotten ever, he lived and was apart of so many other peoples lives and I do not want anyone elses loved one forgotten either. It is important that we keep this site active for all of the people out there who have lost a dear family member or friends. Find a grave is like a living memorial to all those who have gone before us and allows us to visit those we can not go to in person. This is a valuable tool for those trying to locate family for research.

We were so fed up with visiting cats, birds (wood pigeon cooing by the fridge freezer) mice etc that in this house we decided not to have a flap. Thank goodness as there is a rogue cat that visits houses with flaps. eats food in kitchens and terrorrises cats. It does have a home. but our 2 feel safe as they know it won't come here.
Just spent a pleasant 25mins skyping with grand daughter - AAAAH!
Just put wreath on door, now to do some internal decorations.
Yay I got it right
Christmas lights are going up on the green as I write. Last year us neigh bours put money in the kitty and bought 2 extra long strings of solar lights for the fir tree . Will post photo later. Some of the folk in road weren't living here then,perhaps they'll decorate another one. For the jubilee we all decorated a tree each - not practical to have bunting.

This is a Fraser Fir, pretty, and it has roots. Farmer said put it in water for 48hours, then plant it and may take. OH has just made a comment about how he is going to get a large pot full of compost and tree into house. Der never thought of that and he was with me when bought it. Any one out there in cyberland know about trees and roots and stuff??
Dog only barked 3 times after I went to bed last night, was a sleepy bark so didn't get up to him. Hooray. He was in the hall again. Good nights sleep by all
You know on 'what to do thids week' for 6th Decenber they say earmark your brussel sprouts . Does that mean you have to go and mark every sprout with wool or somethng so you know which you are going to eat? that one, that one, no, not that one!!!

* Sync with Google Tasks at the core *
Sync with Google Tasks is not just another bullet point in an endless feature list, but lies at the heart of the application. Our goal is to bring all the features you are enjoying online to your Android device.
* Tuned to the whole Android ecosystem *
Tasks uses the modern design language introduced with Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich throughout the application. However, that doesn't mean that we compromise on compatibility, as we made sure that Tasks runs on Android 2.2 or later. And whether you have a phone, a tablet or anything in between, the UI just feels right for the screen you are holding in your hands.
* Additional Features *
Due date reminders
Multiple Google accounts
Light and dark theme
Integration into Android sharing system
Sort by rearranging or by due date
* Versions *
Next to the paid version we also offer a free, ad-supported version which will start showing ads after 10 days. Both versions offer the same functionality and features. You won't lose any data if you decide to upgrade from the free to the paid version as all the data is synced with Google Tasks.
* Move to SD card not supported due to problems with widgets *

Notepad To Do
The philosophy of this application is unique across the mobile world. The main differences from ordinary notepads and calendar applications are:
1. The colorful design, playful environment.
2. Categorized notes.
3. There are buttons representing categories instead of OK button – the note is always saved into a category without an extra click.
4. A very quick navigation by category buttons (there is also an option of sorting by event time or time of adding).
5. Notepad and calendar hybrid - you can add start and end time for each note.
6. No unnecessary jumping screens.
7. Widget displays notes which are about to expire shortly.
8. A special mode for quick deleting and checking notes.
9. The easy things can be done very simply and mainly quickly.
10. There is a very helpful illustrated help*.
* There are many non-basic functions which are nicely described in help – for example changing positions of main buttons, sorting notes by time of event or time of adding (ascend or descend), adding only date (without time), etc.
App not require Internet permission! You can be sure that nobody can't read your notes! Nevertheless, you can send your friend your note by e-mail and your friend can import that note to his CatNotes. You can migrate to another device by creating backup.

True Contacts
This application does not contain dialer, dialer is not part of Contacts since Android 5.
True contacts are good for Local Sync and all apps that create contacts accounts (see http://www.psencik.cz/local-sync/local-sync-and-android-4-ics) because manufacturer's Android 1 apps are lacking features of Android 4.
Application supports multi-window feature.
AOSP Android contacts application - Apache License 2.0.
Battery Charged Silencer
Application may start work correctly after first or second charging when it self calibrates!
If you set Mute From=23:00 Mute To=7:00 it does not mean that notification sounds are muted during this time from 23:00 to 7:00, it means that program mutes sounds within this interval. Notification sounds are muted when battery is at (usually) 99% and notification sounds are restored after full charge.
Program mutes notification sounds for couple of minutes.
Mutes notification stream sounds and vibration (vibration feature works only for some phones) just before battery is fully charged and restores volume after battery is fully charged.
It is possible to configure time range when feature will mute notification sound (within this interval notification sound will be muted just before battery is going to be fully charged, usually couple of minutes).
Install/update this application with charger disconnected!
Uninstall application with charger disconnected before upgrading Android system to new version (e.g. updating Android 2 to Android 4)
License details at product homepage.
Application will not work in case other applications interrupt with its function (Volume Locker, task killers, "profiles" applications, silent nights...) and those other apps will cause that volume is not restored and other system malfunctions. Either use Battery Charged Silencer or other app, but not simultaneously.
AutoSync Account Activator
You do not change manually autosync in Accounts configuration, it is set by this application according to rules.
It is possible in expert mode to reveal push sync authorities and configure them, e.g. disable.
Detailed description:
Application enables/disables autosync for each account based on configured conditions for that account. Once installed you do not set autosync in accounts manually, it is done by this application.
For example you enable your google account on cellular data and no wifi. Then as soon as your phone connects to any wifi then autosync for that google account is disabled. If phone connects to cellular data, google account autosync is enabled again.
This is useful e.g. at work. You enable for your work wifi only exchange account autosync and disable everything else. Then when you are at work only your exchange account is syncing and nothing else (e.g. google accounts whose autosync could block phone because it could not get through firewall at work). As soon as you leave work phone connects cell data and your google accounts are activated and synchronized.
This feature protects also your privacy, because if you connect to some foreign wifi, then indeed no account is configured to be enabled on it so for all accounts autosync is disabled.
Periodic sync feature is standard Android feature - to synchronize periodically accounts which have enabled autosync. Periodic sync is syncing only if master autosync is enabled in Android. Because it is not possible to configure it in std. Android (there are no screens for it) I have incorporated it into this applicaton.
For push sync accounts (e.g. Google) periodic sync is often ignored.

Pet deposit
My lease states that there is a nonrefundable pet fee of $200 per cat. It goes on to state that the resident "shall pay the nonrefundable pet fee and any additional security deposits."
However, nowhere in the document does it give a monetary amount for that "additional security deposit" or for monthly pet rent.
I went to the leasing office prepared to pay $200 but was told I have to pay $400, of which $200 is nonrefundable. I must also pay $10 a month for cat rent.
I feel that I should only pay the $200 nonrefundable pet fee because that is the amount the lease stated. Thoughts?
That actually sounds reasonable. I have lived in many apartments in the past and typically you pay a normal security deposit which averaged $100 - $150 in my area when I was renting. On top of that you pay a pet deposit which I have seen to be $300 -$400 of which about 1/2 is non-refundable. I have also seen the "pet rent" addition. I'm going to assume you haven't moved in yet. They only problem I see with your situation is that they apparently didn't list out all the charges you were responsible for but usually these are all disclosed in any advertisements or listings so they may have felt you were already aware. Everytime I rented though they would give me the floor plans with rent and deposits written in. Bottom line is your going to have to pay it no matter where you rent. I would talk to the apartment manager and see if he or she is willing to work out a payment arrangement for the pet deposit. If they want to rent to the apartment to you bad enough chances are they have the leighway to work with you.
Hi, krustytopp,
Yes, I checked Washington state renters' rights and nonrefundable fees are allowed.
ttugrad95, my problem is I've already signed the lease (actually a renewal - I moved in last April) so I feel like I have no leverage on the pet situation.
Thanks for all your input. If I'm lucky they'll at least waive the monthly pet rent.
"I feel that I should only pay the $200 nonrefundable pet fee because that is the amount the lease stated. "
Well, actually it says the $200 fee plus any additional security deposits - which would be that other $200. I think the only argument that you could make would be that the lease doesn't say anything about an additional monthly fee.
Truthfully, those fees are completely in line with what i've paid over the years for my two cats - and i've often had to pay double that since i have 2. I'd be happy the landlord was letting you have both animals and pay up. Many landlords are moving towards banning pets altogether.
I was unable to get my $10/month pet rent waived. But between Saturday and Wednesday the $400 fee+deposit went down to $300 (half refundable, half nonrefundable). So that is some consolation.
Does the idea of pet rent strike anyone as odd? What I'm renting is a space. If I brought in a roommate or adopted a child I wouldn't be required to pay extra. What resources does a cat or dog use that a person would not?
I'm with you on the pet rent, sleepless. They'll say it's because pets may do more damage to the apartment than humans, but I say that's crap. That's why we paid a deposit, so that any damage done, by us, our guests, or our pets, would be covered. We pay it because we have to, and we were lucky that they didn't double our pet rent (which is $30/month) when we got a second cat, but they did charge us another non-refundable fee. It's extortion in my opinion....if you don't inform them that you have a pet and pay the fees, they can evict you, and if you inform them then you have to pay extra that they say is to cover extra damages that would already be covered by your deposit. Total crap!!!
We will be moving to an apt. soon due to a job transfer. We'll be there for several months while our house is built. We have to pay a non-refundable pet deposit of $600 (we have four cats) in addition to our regular deposit. We don't have to pay any pet rent each month, though.
We charge a pet deposit and extra monthly fee for pets. Some, certainly not all, pets cause an amazing amount of damage. The regular deposit isn't enough to cover replacing vinyl and carpet, replacing subfloor, repairing sheetrock, repairing kitchen and bathroom cabinets, etc that can be damaged. It is easier to collect a larger deposit up front to cover the potential additional damage. If the landlord doesn't get it upfront, then they are pretty much left taking the former tenant to small claims court where they might get a judgement but may never receive payment. Cat urine and dog urine can be pretty strong and require some major repairs to completely elminiate the smell.
As far as a monthly pet rent, dogs and outdoor cats can be pretty hard on landscaping. The front porch becomes the "fire hydrant" and can get pretty raunchy smelling if several dogs mark it multiple times a day - not exactly a welcoming smell to come home to. If you are in an apartment complex with several animal owners and one doesn't clean up after their animal (dogs and cats), then how does the landlord figure out who to charge for the extra clean up?
I've seen instances where indoor cats have been left alone for days on end. Oh someone may come in to feed them and give them water, but not scoop the litter box. Did you know that many cats won't use a dirty litter box? When that happens, the carpet turns into a litter box.
Once again, the good pet owners end up paying more because the inconsiderate pet owners don't clean up after and take care of their pets.
By the way, I am a dog owner and have been a cat owner as well. You can't say that I am anti-pet. I've had to deal with the damage that can result from a pet that isn't properly taken care of or is bored.

Resignation Letter Is Good Enough To Eat
By editor
Originally published on Wed April 17, 2013 2:46 pm
Good morning, I'm David Greene.
Chris Holmes worked at a London airport, but his true love was always making cakes. So Holmes decided to quit his job to run his own bake shop, which brings us to his resignation letter. He wrote it on a cake with icing. He said he wanted more time with his family. He wished his colleagues well. It took two hours, more time than he had ever spent on a birthday message or anniversary wish. A photo of his work went viral, publicity that he really felt was icing on the cake.

Must be nice to be in Chromeo. You get to dress up in cop uniforms, hang out with sexy ladies in saunas, watch them do synchronized swimming, and dance around in skimpy outfits. Some life!

Heat and Humidity 105'-110' index
Any ideas?......tricks? tips?
I am using evaporation cooling in my high tunnel. It is working great. I am sure it would work outside too. Yesterday it was 106 outside, at the start of the cycle it was 97 degrees in the high tunnel. By the end of the 2 minute cycle, it was back down to 91 degrees. I have 6 spinner sprinklers that run for 2 minutes and shut off for 10 minutes. They have been running from 11 am until 7 to 7:30 pm. They tomatoes are all blooming now and I am seeing lots of them taking!
I am surprised how well it is working.
Jay, years ago I read here about misting used outdoors in the Southwest desert to cool tomatoes, but I don't know details (I don't think we got many details) except that the growers (gardeners rather than market-gardeners) were happy with the results.
Are you spraying above the plants, in front of fans, or somewhere else?
Do the plants get damp?
Luckily we almost never have to worry here about temperatures preventing fruitset. Our overnight lows for the next few days were supposed to be in the 68-72 range -- which is unusual -- but this morning they've altered that to 68 two times and the rest of the nights much cooler.
