Here are some photos of work in progress. I'm using Revell's venerable USS Lionfish (1/178) as the basis for a model of the USS Grouper, SS-214, circa July 1945. I picked the Grouper for a number of reasons:
1. Her sail has the classic openwork or "Covered Wagon" look which I feel is so identified with the WWII fleet submarine.
2. She typifies the ultimate in WWII Submarine technology.
3. Her limber holes match the Lionfish.
4. She has dual 40mm mounts and a 5"/25 gun.
I used the Revell Lionfish because when I started this project it was the only Gato kit available and I was familiar with it and its warts.
So far I have just about finished modifying the sail and I have most of the hull done. I plan on portraying her submerged on an approach. I did not attempt to scale the teak decking. Nautilus had not yet come out with their wood deck replacement when I started. All of the scratch work I did is in 1/192 scale even though the kit is 1/178. I still have to create the parabolic reflectors for the SJ and SV radar antennas. I built the platform for the masthead light and I will install the clear plastic light after painting. There are only 3-4 photos of the USS Grouper that I have been able to find. I have about 115 pages of reverse-engineering drawings I've created for the scratch work I had to do. I want to thank the folks at the USS Cod Museum and Tom Dougherty of SubCommittee for the photos they got for me of specific areas of the Cod and Flasher sails. I also used my own photos of the Pompanato in San Francisco, the Lionfish in Fall River, MA, the Drum in Mobile, Alabama, and the Flasher sail in Groton, CT. And thank God for Floating Drydock's Gat and Balao Plans book!
Here is a "before and after" shot of the 40mm mount:

Path: news.voyager.net!clmx35.dial.voyager.net!user From: firstname.lastname@example.com (Jamie McCarthy) Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: "Umfallen" and deliberate mistranslation Date: Wed, 13 Nov 1996 14:10:23 -0500 Organization: Voyager Information Networks, Inc. Lines: 139 Message-ID:NNTP-Posting-Host: vixa.voyager.net I took my German classes in college, six or seven years ago, before I even knew that Holocaust-denial existed. I remember a moment in what must have been German II. We were working on one of those conversations that were invented just to give second-term students something to work on, and that never would have taken place in real life: A: Hello, my good friend. How is your auto? B: The weather is beautiful today. A: Yes, the weather is quite beautiful today, is it not? That sort of thing. They're the same in any language class. This particular conversation involved schoolchildren asking their grandmother about what her life was like. This moment sticks in my memory because it was the first time reference was made to the war in my German classes. We were translating the grandmother's lines, and whoever was reading came to one that looked like this: Grossmutter: Im Krieg ist mein Mann gefallen. A simple sentence grammatically, and simple vocabulary. The reader read it, then, puzzled, tried: "My husband...fell in the war?" A short silence, then the professor explained the obvious: "died." "My husband died in the war." Correction noted, we went on. We were corrected on this-and-that every day, of course, but that one correction has stuck in my head, perhaps because this was my first awareness that "the war," in German, is a noun without need of an adjective. Fast-forward to 1996. I've just pulled up CODOH's presentation of Carlos Porter's translation of Heinrich Himmler's famous Posen speech. http://www.codoh.com/incon/inconhh.html Mr. Porter apparently translated all three hours of the speech, which he says runs to 24,000 words. I'll trust him on that. But how can I trust someone who adds translator's notes like this? "Umfallen" (p. 23), translated at Nuremberg as "die", means "to fall down".... Intruiged by this, I went looking for the section where "umfallen" supposedly meant "to fall down." I found it, coincidentally, in the same section which I digitized and put up on the net in RealAudio: What happens to the Russians, the Czechs, is totally indifferent to me. Whatever is available to us in good blood of our type, we will take for ourselves, that is, we will steal their children and bring them up with us, if necessary. Whether other races live well or die of hunger is only of interest to me insofar as we need them as slaves for our culture; otherwise that doesn't interest me. Whether 10,000 Russian women fall down from exhaustion in building a tank ditch is of interest to me only insofar as the tank ditches are finished for Germany. "Fall down"! "Umfallen" is translated here as "fall down" instead of "die." And not casually either -- Porter obviously intends that the _meaning_ has nothing to do with dying, but only with collapsing from exhaustion. Presumably the Russian females would be wakened with the scent of flowers and gently ushered to a shady pup tent, there to sip mint schnapps and spend a few hours recovering from the ordeal. This despite Himmler's endorsement, in the previous three sentences, of (1) total indifference to Russians' fates; (2) mass kidnapping; and (3) death by starvation, and slavery. The contempt of context is breathtaking. Himmler goes on to explain, in the next sentences, what he was talking about: We will never be hard and heartless when it is not necessary; that is clear. We Germans, the only ones in the world with a decent attitude towards animals, will also adopt a decent attitude with regards to these human animals; but it is a sin against our own blood to worry about them and give them ideals, so that our sons and grandchildren will have a harder time with them. When somebody comes to me and says, "I can't build tank ditches with children ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ?> or women. That's inhumane, they'll die doing it." Then I must say: ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ "You are a murderer of your own blood, since, if the tank ditches are not built, then German soldiers will die, and they are the sons of German mothers. That is our blood." Taking this too into account, one might think that maybe, just maybe, Himmler's previous use of "umfallen" did indeed refer to children and women dying, rather than merely falling down. Also, notice the "?>" inserted where Himmler makes reference to digging tank ditches with children and women. What does Porter mean by this? He explains in his introduction: I have marked illogical remarks or uncertain terminology with a ?> ; for example, it seems strange to speak of "hard times" beginning in Germany in 1936-7 (p. 93). I know that the Moscow subway was built with forced labour, including that of women, but I question the utility of "child labour" in digging anti-tank ditches (p. 24). This necessity for "revisionists" to question any Nazi references to cruelty, even when they're well-documented and undeniable, is astounding. If one didn't know better, one might even think they were Nazi apologists. However, DvdThomas, webmaster of CODOH, has assured us otherwise. I invite Carlos Porter, and anyone else who cares, to listen to Himmler's own words as he speaks of killing women and children: http://www.nizkor.org/ftp.cgi?people/h/himmler.heinrich/posen/oct-04-43/himmler-ditches.ra "Illogical"? No more illogical than many of the other tenets of Nazism. No more illogical than suggesting that Russian and Czech children be kidnapped and raised as German children. "Uncertain"? It's certain as a rock, Mr. Porter. Listen for yourself. What is illogical and uncertain is the translation of words like "umfallen" as "fall down." When my classmates and I did this in German II, it was an error. But when Carlos Porter, who presumably is fluent, takes the time to explain why "umfallen" does not mean "kill" -- that is nothing less than a lie, and a fine example of Holocaust-deniers' dishonesty. Posted; emailed to Richard Widmann, who praises Porter's work in his introduction to the web page. (I might mention to Mr. Widmann that his citing of Robert Wolfe's opinion, juxtaposed with the statement about revisionist interpretations being correct, is disingenous in the extreme. Mr. Wolfe prefers "extirpate" because he believes that this term is more linguistically correct; he believes that Himmler was clearly referring to killing, and strongly opposes "revisionist interpretations" which deny that.) -- Jamie McCarthy http://www.absence.prismatix.com/jamie/ email@example.com Co-Webmaster of http://www.nizkor.org/ Path: news.voyager.net!aanews.merit.net!news-out.internetmci.com!newsfeed.internetmci.com!news.theriver.com!www.nntp.primenet.com!nntp.primenet.com!feed1.news.erols.com!uunet!in3.uu.net!newstf01.news.aol.com!audrey01.news.aol.com!not-for-mail From: firstname.lastname@example.com Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: "Umfallen" and deliberate mistranslation Date: 15 Nov 1996 05:44:10 GMT Organization: AOL http://www.aol.com Lines: 94 Sender: firstname.lastname@example.com Message-ID: <email@example.com> References: NNTP-Posting-Host: ladder01.news.aol.com Jamie McCarthy writes (a lot about a little): >But how can I trust someone who adds translator's notes like this? > > "Umfallen" (p. 23), translated at Nuremberg as "die", means > "to fall down".... > >Intruiged by this, I went looking for the section where "umfallen" >supposedly meant "to fall down." >Whether 10,000 Russian women fall down from exhaustion > in building a tank ditch is of interest to me only insofar as the > tank ditches are finished for Germany. > >"Fall down"!

Presumably the Russian females would be wakened with the >scent of flowers and gently ushered to a shady pup tent, there to sip >mint schnapps and spend a few hours recovering from the ordeal. I noted this particular portion when uploading the piece. It caught my attention going by quickly, something not quite right about it (to be perfectly honest, if I may be so bold as to use that description, I took the word "die" to be the German "the" and it made no sense at all for a few seconds). Stopped and read it again, decided that this probably needs to be discussed, don't think I'd say it that way. Though it has little to do with the rest of the text, it still should be reworded I thought. Since we have a policy of not editing without the author's permission, I had a choice. Wait until he could be contacted by snail mail in Europe, omit a sentence with brackets and a note that it would be reinserted soon, or go ahead and post it. Did the latter after this quick thought process---The context makes it perfectly obvious that the speaker doesn't give a flying f--k what happens to the Russian women. Further, this particular statement about the tank ditches is a famous one, quoted often, and usually with the word "die" used in it. Third, Porter's note that "umfallen" means "to fall down" is literally correct, and to fall down from exhaustion on the Eastern Front was tantamount to death for anyone who did so, there being no flowers, no need of a shady pup tent at 50 below zero, damned little schnapps for anyone, and myriad stories about German prisoners experiencing exactly this fate--falling down totally worn out and being left there to die, or thrown to the side for the same fate (not to mention whips and genital eating dogs to help complete their demise). Now, I think you could look at this and call the translation a number of valid or semi-valid things--literal to a fault, or open to misinterpretation (mostly by those looking for such an opportunity), or even a mistake though, again, Porter's comments on the two words are absolutely correct. It was translated as "die" at Nuremberg, and it does literally mean "fall down" in German. "Umfallen" is not the German word for "die." The correct translation of the example given: >Grossmutter: Im Krieg ist mein Mann gefallen. Is this: Grandmother: My husband fell in the war. The context and meaning are the same in both. The word "fell" is used in a dramatic, poetic sense (there's probably a term for it, I don't recall). In other words, life is a journey at the end of which we all fall down. My husband fell in the war tells a listener in a somber way that he died. So, Porter is guilty of noting the literal translation of a word, makes no comments about context, leaving that to the reader, and it produces a passage that probably should be reworded, but really is no big deal since one's verbal skills would have to be pretty deficient to miss the speaker's meaning. But one person takes the umfallen comment to be directed to the context, and this imaginary nuance is trumpeted as a lie. Give me a break. And I trust that the previous sentence will not be taken by any conscious person to mean that I wish to have a reader break one of my bones (and only one, for that matter). I do not, and that's no lie. _________________________________________________________ As it will be in the future, it was at the birth of Man, There are only four things certain since Social Progress began; That the Dog returns to his Vomit, and the Sow returns to her Mire, And the burnt Fool's bandaged finger goes wabbling back to the fire; And after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins, As surely as water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn, The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return! --Kipling David Thomas CODOH (http://www.codoh.com/) Path: news.voyager.net!clmx31.dial.voyager.net!user From: email@example.com (Jamie McCarthy) Newsgroups: alt.revisionism Subject: Re: "Umfallen" and deliberate mistranslation Date: Fri, 15 Nov 1996 15:40:09 -0500 Organization: Voyager Information Networks, Inc. Lines: 59 Message-ID: References: <email@example.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: vixa.voyager.net It's been pointed out to me by two fluent German speakers that "fallen" isn't the same as "umfallen." To be exact, "fallen" can have the meaning of "die" if the phrasing is right (similar to the English idiom "fall in battle"). "Umfallen," on the other hand, would not do this. The meaning of the phrase in question is indeed something very close or identical to "collapse from exhaustion." Which means that Porter's translation of "fall down from exhaustion" is acceptable. I agree with DThomas that there is "something not quite right about it," but this is due to Porter's placing emphasis on the fact that the word was translated incorrectly at Nuremberg. Later context makes it quite clear that the 10,000 Russian women were indeed dying, so the phrase "collapse from exhaustion" being translated "die from exhaustion" is entirely inconsequential.

I apologize to Carlos Porter for my mistaken belief that he had deliberately mistranslated this word of Himmler's speech. I maintain that mentioning this error at Nuremberg in anything larger than a 9-point italic footnote is giving it more importance than it deserves. There are of course other problems with Porter's translation, for example his totally false statement: "Ein Volk auszurotten" (p. 66) can be translated "exterminate or kill a people or race", or, alternatively, "get rid of a rabble, crowd, mob", etc.. ...but I'll just let this thread die right here.

The name "HYDE" is derived from the hide, a measure of land for taxation purposes, taken to be that area of land necessary to support a peasant family. In later times it was taken to be equivalent to 120 acres .
March 2014
BLOG still being updated, please keep commenting as it all goes to making a good read and helps to build an archive.
I believe this James Ollerenshaw is an ancestor of mine born in Mellor in 1779. In 1841 he was a farmer of 35 acres in Matley, and he also had a son James born 1807. I have hundreds of Ollerenshaw ancestors around Mellor and Matley.
What an interesting post! And nice to see that the pub is still going.
Great piece of research and a terrific article arising from one photo sent from Down Under.
Barry in oz. My wife and I were in Hyde on holiday in 2010 and having a drink in the rising Moon. There was a send off drink going on for a young lady who served behind the bar, turned out she was leaving that day to live in Australia.
I must say this is really enthralling
As a result of this post I did some more digging on this Ollerenshaw family and discovered that it was James' brother John living next door who was a "pot maker" in the 1841 and 1851 census. Another brother William was listed as "earthenware manufacturer" in a 1832 trade directory of Mottram. It's been really satisfying to get some flesh on the bones of these ancestors and see where they lived.
Thank you... I do like it when information such as this comes in..
Now then can we find some of the pottery? :)

Hi I'm trying to delete the home page (/) cache entry on this site (http://investorjunkie.com) and get the error listed here: 405 Method Not Allowed No idea why because all sub pages work fine. I don't see any logic in my config files that would cause this issue.
It probably related to the way how cache is enabled for "/" URL. For some reason, cache was not enabled for that page with PURGE request. Like in a situation that rewrite rule enable cache only when request method is "GET".
How do I figure out what the real URL is then? Is there a way to get a list of cached entries in the system? If the request works via "/" and states it is cached why doesn't then PURGE work?
Status: HTTP/1.1 200 OK Date: Thu, 15 Aug 2013 18:52:33 GMT Server: LiteSpeed Connection: close Transfer-Encoding: chunked Vary: User-Agent X-LiteSpeed-Cache: hit X-Powered-By: PHP/5.3.25 X-Pingback: http://investorjunkie.com/xmlrpc.php Expires: Wed, 11 Jan 1984 05:00:00 GMT Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate, max-age=0 Pragma: no-cache Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8 X-W3TC-Minify: On So if a HTTP request works this way via the URI, why doesn't PURGE/REFRESH commands work the same?? This sounds like a bug to me.
here's the cached file Here's the file in your cache folder that matches to the home page. http://investorjunkie.com/tmp/edf34916a303feba.txt I couldn't attach this file as the limit to your forum is only 16k. The file is 56k in size. Please tell me why it's not matching?
the cached file don't look helpful --- but great you can dig it out please paste the rewrite rules which lead to cache "/" (can omit rules to cache other URLs)
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> Other items are in the .htaccess file for W3TC.
no cache enable flag like [E=Cacahe-Control:mag-age=60] in reriterules and use W3TC at the same time. how did you enable lsws cache ?
It does not matter if you do not use it. Just let us know how you enabled page cache for that site? From LSWS console cache tab? content level cache configuration? Apache directive? So, we can try to reproduce this issue and come up with a solution.

the settings looks ok. can you PM the server's access so that I can do more tests on the server directly.
I sent you a private message. I need info from you. Though I don't see the message in my private outgoing emails.
The purge request must be sent to the IP that the vhost bound to, by default purge_cache_byrul.php uses 127.0.0.1, but the request cannot reach the vhost unless it also bound to 127.0.0.1 IP. Explicitly set the IP in the purge request works.
Then why do other URLs work then? How can it work via 127.0.0.1 then since I need it to work via automated methods that don't add this.
More investigation found that other URL works is due to a flaw in LSWS handling redirect. when 127.0.0.1 is used, it goes to the Apache default vhost at /var/www/html, the URL does not exist, causes a redirect to /404.shtml, when redirect performed, LSWS uses the "Host" header to locate the vhost and found the cached URL. then purged. For "/" URL, it does not perform the /404.shtml redirect. To make it work reliably, add the IP to purge_cache_byurl.php parameter, it works for all URL.

On Wednesday, April 17, 2013, the 20th Annual Federal Inter-Agency Holocaust Remembrance Program will be held at 11:30 a.m. at the Historic Lincoln Theatre in Washington, DC. While many Federal agencies already serve as sponsors of this program by providing financial and/or logistical support, I write to encourage you to continue your support and to allow a reasonable amount of time for your employees to attend the event this year.
This annual Holocaust program is authorized through Public Law 96-388, which Congress passed on October 7, 1980, as part of honoring the "Days of Remembrance." Through the act, the United States Holocaust Memorial Council was instructed to provide for appropriate ways for the Nation to commemorate the Days of Remembrance, as an annual, national, civil commemoration of the Holocaust and to encourage and sponsor appropriate observances throughout the United States. This event is within compliance of the congressional mandate.
The "Days of Remembrance" honors the six million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust, and the five million other victims including Soviet prisoners of war (3.3 million), Polish Christians (2.0 million), physically and mentally disabled (250,000 plus), Jehovah's Witnesses, Romani or Sinti people (formerly referred to as Gypsies), homosexuals, freemasons, people with beliefs opposed to Nazi conduct, trade unionists, clergymen, and African-German people. Our Nation commemorates the days annually so that each year anyone who does not know about the Holocaust will learn, and so that people who have learned will never forget.
More information about the Federal Inter-Agency Holocaust Remembrance Program can be found at http://holocaustremembrance.org/. Please forward this information to the Agency's Federal Inter-Agency Holocaust Remembrance Program planning committee representative or the office that supports special events.

9/27/10 – Good Evening, Recliner and Beer
Thanks to yet another complete game gem from Roy Halladay, I can now say I'm attending the fantasy camp of the 2010 National League East Champion Phillies. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would get to experience such a run by this team. Four division championships in a row and the distinction of being one of THE elite teams in the Majors? My inner 10-year old is not getting tired of this. To make it even better, I listened to the WPHT broadcast with Scott Franzke and Larry Andersen through my favorite iPhone app, MLB.com At Bat. Other than actually being at the field, there is nothing better than listening to a baseball game on the radio. I have such wonderful memories listening to Phillies games in our '77 Plymouth Volare or our little Panasonic transistor radio on the beach on our annual Summer vacation to Stone Harbor, NJ. The sound of Harry Kalas, Richie Ashburn, Andy Musser, and Chris Wheeler coming through a tinny radio was pure AM gold.
Tonight my thoughts turned to my dad as each inning passed. When the game finally ended, a small wave of sadness hit me. I couldn't call him tonight. After every big game, it would take about thirty seconds before one of our phones would be ringing. Instead, all I could hear was a hypothetical conversation in my head. I could hear him gushing about Halladay…finally pronouncing his name correctly after almost 10 months of Roy being on the team. My father had a very funny quirk of never getting people's name right. I'm quite sure I would have heard the name "Holiday" mentioned several hundred times, even after several hundred corrections.
In 2008, my wife and I went down to visit my dad for the weekend, and as luck would have it, got to watch the Phillies win the NL East crown for that season together. A pizza and the familiar sight of my dad in his recliner with a Coors Light in his hand capped off a wonderful night. It was the only time since 2007 that I got to experience one of these big games with my dad. With me being 125 miles away and he usually heading to Florida for the good part of September and October, it was a rarity for the two of us to get to watch a late-season game in these last couple years. It makes it so special that this game was the first big step leading to their 2008 World Series trophy.
My recliner was unoccupied last night. I'd like to think he was there with us last night, relaxing, having several cans (even though I didn't have the specific beer my dad liked), maybe snoozing off for a bit (or "resting his eyes") and celebrating another big Phillies victory. Hopefully, like 2008, this will just be the beginning. As Halladay said last night, "it's only gonna get funner".
I sure would like to say I'm going to the fantasy camp of the 2010 World Champion Phillies…

Of specific note in regards to the QML Work for 4.11
1) The menu should be finally ported to QML.
2) The Task bar should be finally ported to QML, thereby hopefully fixing the bug that causes entries to overlap or be in the wrong order or be skipping spaces, etc. Was supposed to land in 4.10 but it didn't make it.
KDE 4.11 is set to release in early August assuming no delays.
