What a beautiful sight, it feeds my soul.
I can feel the nip in the air!
Enjoy the beauty for me, I wish I were there...
Nancy Hi Miss Kitty,
Oh we've had quite a few frosty mornings in the low 20sF already--including some several days before our "official" frost date of October 15th. This morning was the coldest morning yet--it dipped down into the teens. Brrrr. But it's sunny and around 50 during the day which is just the kind of weather I love.
I'm glad you like this photo so much. Joe and I both really like it, too--esp. with DDD just poking his head in the corner. As far as capturing to many things with my camera--that's easy. I carry it everywhere! : )
Hi Finny,
You make me laugh so much I'm just glad I could return the favor--and I don't think you're weird! : )
Hi Anonymous artist,
So glad I've inspired you to pull out your pencils and create some art!
Hi Bernie,
You are very welcome. It was the least we could do. That you have chosen to dedicate so much of your life to homeless, unwanted animals just brings me to tears (in a good way). Talk about inspiring--your blog, A Place To Bark. . . And Meow, is incredibly inspiring. I am in awe of all that you do. Placing 281 orphan animals in homes in 10 months is an incredible feat! Thank you, Bernie! : )
Hi Carolyn,
Thanks for the Christmas card suggestion. I think you're right! : )
Hi Babybull40,
More inspiration--great news.
On another note--regarding the question you left on another FF post about posting some of my photos on your own blog:
While I am flattered that you like my photos so much, the fact is that all of my photos are my own original works of art. They are copyright by me and belong to me. With that in mind, I ask that you (and anyone else) please not copy and use my photos on blogs/websites or in any other manner.
If someone would like to post a specific photo of mine on their blog/website for a specific reason, please email me for consent: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com. Thank you for your understanding and for complying with my request.- Anonymous11/02/2006 3:22 PM

I am all in. I will have no free time after the release date.
Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 arrives globally on 11.13.12.
SURPRISE! Loved the trailer! Directed by Guy Ritchie with Jack Black, IJustine,Omar Cy,Robert Downey Jr., and FPS Russia!!
Just wish the camper with the afro at the beginning and end of the trailer would have been replaced by Bruce Campbell cocking the shotgun and saying the line "Zombies,..groovy." That would have been PERFECT! But it was still awesome!

iHerb Customer Reviews
I only get spices from three sources....my garden, my local amazing tea/spice specialty store or from Simply Organic. Why? Simply Organic does not sell any products or use any ingredients that have been irradiated. They use cryogenic grinding instead of normal grinding where temperatures can reach 200 degrees, damaging heat-sensitive components. This cinnamon is my favourite. Simply Organic uses a high quality Korinjte cinnamon which is the same cinnamon that Cinnabon uses in their buns. Very sweet and fragrant. I love the glass bottles and they have a best before date so you know it hasn't been sitting on the shelf for years.They're the perfect size for freshness. You really need to buy spices in small fresh quantities. I also like that Simply Organic gives 1% of their profits to support organic farming causes. I live in Canada and have received all of my iherb orders within 2 weeks. Feel free to check out my other detailed reviews on products like stevia, baking staples and low-toxicity beauty products and do let me know if you found this review helpful :)
I bought this thinking it was Ceylon cinnamon but it's not. I found out this is Saigon cinnamon. Further research has been inconclusive to uncover whether Saigon cinnamon also has high levels of coumarin and is as toxic as cassia (regular cinnamon). At any rate it's the most delicious cinnamon I've tasted and I sprinkle it on all my fruits to counteract hypoglycemia and insulin resistance

Royals ride big fifth to second straight win
CLEVELAND -- It wasn't the ideal, clean-cut base hit reminiscent of those on instructional videos or batting highlights.
It was, however, exactly what the Royals needed.
Kansas City felt that once it snapped out of its lengthy losing streak, it would string together a comparable stretch of wins.
Jeff Francoeur's broken-bat single skipped under the glove of a diving Shelley Duncan in left field in the fifth inning, paving the way for more run-scoring hits, and the Royals rolled to a 4-2 victory over the Indians on a foggy Thursday afternoon at Progressive Field, their second straight win since breaking out of a 12-game skid.
"That's what happens," skipper Ned Yost said. "That's why those streaks happen. You can't catch a break. You can't find a hole, or they're making great plays, or you're not getting a call from an umpire. There's always something. Don't ask me what it is, but whatever 'it' is, you always get on the good side of it for a while and things work out."
Right-hander Luis Mendoza kept the Indians at bay until his offense got going. For the second straight day, a Royals hurler earned payback against the Indians, who scored 32 runs in a sweep at Kauffman Stadium two weeks ago. Luke Hochevar earned the win in Wednesday's 8-2 victory after surrendering seven runs in four innings in his prior outing against the Tribe.
Mendoza lasted just four frames in a 13-7 loss to the Indians on April 15. In that effort he yielded nine runs (five earned) on nine hits and four walks. He was much sharper on Thursday, allowing just two runs on four hits in five-plus innings, displaying a low-90s fastball with plenty of sinking movement.
"He settled down and made some big pitches when he needed to," Yost said. "He wasn't really in much trouble until the sixth inning. He did a good job. He had better action on his pitches. He was down more. He mixed in his offspeed pitches better."
Mendoza earned his first victory of the season thanks to the series of two-out hits in the fifth. When Francoeur roped a Josh Tomlin cutter to left, all that remained in his hands was the sawed-off handle of his bat. Somehow the ball soared fairly deep into left field and squirted just beyond Duncan's reach.
"When he breaks his bat like that," Tomlin said, "you think probably the only person that's going to be able to make a play on that is either the shortstop or the infielders going back on it. It's going to be a tough play, probably, but Shelley made a good effort at it. He just came up a little bit short."
Alex Gordon scored the go-ahead run before third baseman Mitch Moustakas and catcher Brayan Pena tacked on RBI singles of their own to provide the Royals with a three-run advantage.
Mendoza toed the rubber at the start of the sixth and worked his way into trouble before southpaw reliever Tim Collins bailed him out. The Indians loaded the bases with no outs, but Travis Hafner's sacrifice fly was the only damage incurred.
The Indians placed a runner on third with two outs in the seventh, but first baseman Eric Hosmer made a diving nab of Michael Brantley's line drive to keep the Royals ahead by two. Hosmer demonstrated similar defensive wizardry on another line drive to begin the eighth.
In all, the Royals' bullpen blanked the Tribe over four innings, shutting the door on Kansas City's second win in as many days to conclude the first stop on the club's three-city, nine-game road trip.
"To take two out of three against a Central Division opponent on the road, that's big for us," Gordon said. "We have two more Central Division opponents on the road. Hopefully, we can continue this."
As they try to construct a winning culture, the Royals have preached that taking their lumps and learning from their 12-game losing streak would eventually pay dividends. During the two-week span, they often fell one timely hit or clutch pitching performance shy of reversing their fortunes. Now, two wins removed from that stretch, they are reaping the benefits and enjoying the results.
"We're having fun. It's a lot more fun winning than losing, especially when you lose 12 in a row," Gordon said. "We're enjoying it. We came out today with the goal [of winning] again. We forgot about yesterday and moved on. Just like after a loss, you have to forget about it and try to win the next game, so that's what we did.
"It was frustrating, no doubt. Every guy cares in this clubhouse. We knew we were going to get out of it at some point. It just took longer than we thought."

Medium Duty: Best of Both Worlds
Some off-highway vehicles spend most of their time mucking around debris-filled construction areas or quarries while others spend most it cruising along the highway on their way to the job site, but you still need a durable, tough tire when it's time to get dirty. So how do you build something that works for both Larry the landfill operator and Linda the landscaping supervisor?
Clearly, these are not your father's on/off-highway tires—today's versions have all the advantages of modern technology and years of research, giving fleets the flexibility to have it all. Yet it wasn't that way just a decade ago, says Bridgestone Tire director of engineering for commercial products and technologies Guy Walenga, because manufacturers were simply building the wrong tire.
"We looked at maybe 80 percent off-highway, 20 percent on-highway, give or take, and we built and compounded the tire accordingly, so the rubber just didn't stay on the tire for highway, but off the highway it was a very durable product," he says. "Over the years, we have continued to refine what on/off-highway is, and we actually find out that in most cases, an on/off-highway tire spends maybe 80 to 90 percent of its time on improved roadways, and the other percent is off-highway—it's not as much as we thought.
"So it's really very little time (off-highway)," he says, "but the off-highway environment is very, very brutal, so we've redesigned tires to reflect more on-highway time and less off-highway, and that's a big change. Now we're trying to get more on-highway mileage, however we can't give up any of the durability we put in for off-highway performance, that's the trick. We've shifted to make it more 'on-roadable' but not reduce any of its off-highway capability."
On/off-highway tires look the same as your average truck tire, but there is a lot more going on inside, thanks to evolved compounds—the biggest difference in modern tires, Walenga says. And products are being analyzed, tested and upgraded all the time.
"The on/off-highway tire is kind of a tough fit," he says. "We want a tire that's going to run on the highway for some amount of time but be able to go off into some pretty rough territory and not get cut up and chipped up and destroyed in that off-highway service. These tires are brutalized."
So hats off to the guys in the lab coats, who have been busy putting the new information to use.
"We've done a better job of finding rubber compounds that will work on the road, and we can still make them more cut and chip resistant when they go into rocky areas," Walenga says. "The construction of the body of the tire basically remains the same; it's still a steel body ply. We may use different cords or filaments to make it more flexible, we space those cords a lot farther apart than we do for a highway tire, so it's a more flexible design. We have a more flexible belt package, so the steel part of the tires—the cables, their spacing, the belt spacing—that is also being tweaked over the years to make the tire more suitable for off-highway, but still even more suitable for on-highway."
Flexibility is a good thing when a tire has to move around and over objects, as an on/off-highway often does.
"As it rolls over obstacles, you have to try to envelop them, and a steel-belted radial tire doesn't envelop anything; it's too stiff," Walenga says. "So by changing the cables and the belts, spreading them out a little bit more and in some cases making a split belt—where the belt is literally in two pieces next to each other rather than one solid piece, to allow a little more flexibility in that tread—so it can envelop obstructions rather than just smack 'em. And this makes the tire more resilient and stronger and better suited for off-highway. But, flexibility in a tread means more rapid wear—now we're back to running on the highway with a flexible tire, and that's what's causing the tires to wear out faster. So, you've got to find that middle ground in the casing design and the belt design and still top it off with compounds to resist that scrubbing action that you're getting from more flexible body ply and belt."
As the Technology & Maintenance Council's (TMC) Chair for the S.2 Tires and Wheels Future Truck Task Force, and Silver Spark Plug award winner, Walenga is well-connected with fleets across the country and their needs, and he says listening to them is one of the most important things he does.
"They want everything, and we're trying to give them as much of everything as we can, and an on/off-highway tire is quite a balance: they take a whole lot more punishment," Walenga says. "They want a drive tire, for example, that can go off-highway, won't get bogged down in soft material—it will be able to dig itself out, won't chip and cut up, and they won't have to use different trucks, where they can get more highway mileage, but not give up what they could already do off the highway."
On the other end, fleet officials need to find out exactly what kind of conditions their tires are going through, or costly mistakes can result.
"When you're on that fine line of what's off-highway and what's not, some fleets will sometimes choose to use a highway tire because that's a little less expensive, but they find that the cutting and chipping is so bad that sometimes they lose the casing," Walenga says. "It doesn't appear that the tire is worn out, but the cutting and chipping goes through the compound in a heartbeat, right down to the belts. You might not see it, but when you see tires in a scrap pile and start peeling away the rubber, you can see that, and that starts with wicking and moisture attacking belts, you have rust, you have a casing that's fatigued or takes too much time and effort to buff all the rust out for a repair or retread and you lose the casings.
"So, it's a tough choice when you're on that fine line," Walenga says. "'Do I use a highway tire because it's cheaper and just be real careful, or do I pay extra and use an on/off-highway tire and maybe give up some of my overall highway mileage, which is the bulk of the time I spend with the tire?' Each fleet has to decide what is best for them on a cost per mile basic and where it fits into their application."
Fleets also want a tire that will not only live on-highway more and still retain off-highway properties, Walenga says, but they'll still be able to retread.
"Retreading is just as important in this environment, if not more, than with a highway tire, because these are expensive tires, you still have the casing that is still retreadable and repairable, so these guys want to retread and get more out of their investment in that steel radial casing," he says. "They are going off-highway, and it's not all simply some (rough) roads or some crushed rock or few cactus you're running over; you're running these tires in operations where there is so much debris, you get a lot of road hazards; the tires get enough holes poked in them where they just can't be repaired or retreaded, so the life of these tires is a little shorter, but it's much, much more brutal."
While other companies have had some success with self-sealing tires, Walenga says Bridgestone officials have decided to steer clear.
"It does only cover the areas in the tread that would normally be repairable if you had a puncture," he says. "The sealant does help in so much it keeps you going, because it seals it up. But, in talking to fleets, the downside is that they have so much faith in the technology that they don't do a really good job at inspecting their tires, and a lot of the debris that punctures the tire stays in it. And when that happens over time, even though the air is not coming out and the tire is serviceable, you tend to wick more moisture into the tire; rust attacks it, you have tires that don't retread, that need a lot of repairs to bring them up to re-treadabililty, and a lot of times there is too much damage."
Walenga says while the sealant serves its purpose at the moment, if you can't convince the user to still inspect the tire, they let it go and sometimes they end up losing the casing.
"It's just a choice, but everybody's tires still have to be inspected, they still have to pull debris out; even in sealant tires, there is a method for pulling the debris out and doing a repair that's considered a permanent repair for the tire," he says.
"People are in a hurry to address or adopt technologies, especially if it helps them reduce maintenance and upkeep, but we always caution customers: don't let the technology do all of it. It can't; you still have to do the inspection," he says. "The tire is still a really sophisticated envelop that holds the air, and it's the air that holds the load, so you're trying to keep the air inside, and if you're not taking care of that tire, then the air doesn't stay there and you're stuck."
What are Walenga's top tire care tips?
"No matter how many things we bring out, no matter how puncture-resistant the tires is, no matter how durable it is for off-highway work, it's air pressure, air pressure, air pressure, air pressure," he says. "You still get the best overall performance by maintaining the tire and the vehicle the best that you can, and maintaining the proper air pressure so the tire can flex and deflect on/off-highway like it's designed to—these are designed to be much more flexible than their highway counterparts."
Choosing the right tire for the right application is the first step, though.
"Get the right tire for the right application for the right wheel position, and a tire that has a good quality casing, because you should be looking right off the bat to retread," Walenga says, going down his to-do list. "Make sure it is mounted concentrically on the wheel, so you have to have good mounting practices, lubricant on both tires beads and wheel seats and using the right tools, like a safety cage. This is just rote for a tire technician, but you have to do all these steps to make sure it's mounted concentrically so it rolls round. Make sure your wheels are round to begin with; that you're not using damaged wheels."
Constant inspection and a little TLC will also go a long way.
"You still have to inspect it as often as you can, remove debris from the tire, if it has a puncture, fix the puncture, don't just add air to it and let it go," Walenga says. "Fix it with the proper inside-out repair, watch your air pressure and tread depths so you don't pull the tire too late, and make sure your vehicle is aligned. This is a tough one for an off-highway vehicle because it gets a lot of knocking around; sometimes people don't spend as much time aligning an off-highway vehicle as an on-highway vehicle, but it's still important; people think they last forever but they don't.
"It's odd to see an off-highway type tire that really gets brutalized comes out of service for irregular wear—if you can find irregular wear on an on/off-highway highway tire, you've either got he wrong product and the wrong application or you really haven't done an alignment on your vehicle in a while."

text: There must be an intermittent electrical problem or something else. The gauge reads for a few seconds then goes to empty and stays there while I'm running the boat. It's a 2004 model 2420 so if anyone knows what kind of problem it could be... please weigh in. I thought maybe it could be a float sticking in the tank, but I don't even know if that is a possibility. Does anyone know what kind of job it would be to open up the tank for a sensor replacement? Thanks for any help

In the little town where I come from, we took Groundhog Day seriously.
It was entirely frivolous and silly, and mostly it was a Shirk thing, but it eventually grew into a town thing. The town is Oelwein, Iowa. It is a burg of about 7,000 souls, situated in the northern part of the state.
There is nothing to stop the brutal arctic wind that howls down from Canada. By Feb. 2, we all needed a break and at least a good laugh, if not a trip to the Caribbean.
Mammoth Times Editorial
There's an old coaching expression that goes something along the lines of "Hide your weaknesses; exploit your strengths."
In the wake of the loss of the $30 million Hot Creek lawsuit appeal, Mammoth would be wise to follow that advice.
We're really good at recreation.
We've known that all along, but during the late 90s and early 2000s, we let other things (development, primarily) crowd into the discussion, and we weren't very good at it.
But now we have our focus back.
Monday Jan. 17 marks the 25th observation of the Martin Luther King holiday, as signed into law by President Ronald Reagan in 1983, and first celebrated in 1986. King is honored due to his leadership in the Civil Rights movement, during which he promoted nonviolent resistance to racist laws and policies in the United States.
"We were out of our league."
So said former Mammoth Lakes Town council member Kathy Cage, after learning the Town lost its appeal of the airport/Hot Creek decision last week.
"We didn't have the expertise we needed to negotiate such high level agreements," she said.
Cage's assessment could all too easily be applied to far more than just the most recent airport embroilment.
The appeals court's Dec. 30 decision that found the Town on the wrong side of a $30 million lawsuit is only the latest in a series of high-profile legal snafus.

Reyes' Journey, Part 18
Once Reyes returned to Pallet town, Reyes headed north to Viridian City where his next Gym Battle awaits him. The doors were finally unlocked, so Reyes found out who the Gym Leader was- Giovanni! Surprised, Reyes pitted himself into battle, knowing he mustn't lose:
Gym Battle 8: Giovanni vs.
Winner: Reyes
With all 8 Kanto badges, Reyes wanted to go to the Indigo Plateau immediately, but Blue got in his way, and his team was WAY overleveled compared to Reyes team. Needless to say, Reyes lost. While at the Pokemon Center, Prof. Oak left a message for him to meet up with Reyes in Pallet Town for a special assignment.
In Pallet Town, Oak informs Reyes that Prof. Rowan, a well known Professor from the Sinnoh region, is coming to visit, and Oak has asked Reyes to catch a wide array of Pokemon that are native to Kanto so Rowan can study them. Reyes went ahead and gave Oak Omanyte, and then headed out to travel Kanto once again to catch enough Pokemon, and to hopefully train his current team so they are strong enough for the Kanto League.

With chance to win division, A's send Parker to hill
Hernandez hopes to delay Oakland's playoff dreams another day
After waiting until the final day of the regular season in 2012 to capture the American League West, the A's will have a chance Saturday to put their second consecutive division crown on ice with more than a week to spare.
With their magic number to clinch the division at two, the A's will first have to take care of business against the Twins before pulling for a Royals victory over Texas in a game that begins three hours after first pitch at O.co Coliseum.
If the Rangers should win, the A's can also secure a Wild Card berth if they beat Minnesota and the Indians lose to the Astros in a 6:05 p.m. ET start.
Of course, in both scenarios, each potential celebration for Oakland begins with a win.
To accomplish their end of the deal, the A's will send Jarrod Parker to the mound Saturday afternoon. The right-hander is coming off his first loss since May 22 after the Angels pounded him for eight runs -- seven earned -- on eight hits over 4 1/3 innings his last time out.
Parker said an illness, which had him vomiting just a day prior to the outing, was not responsible for his performance.
"Pretty terrible, I think," Parker said after the game, assessing his performance. "Take nothing away from them, they swung the bats well, but there weren't too many pitches that I executed."
Parker faced the Twins earlier this month as well, holding Minnesota to two runs on seven hits over six innings.
Hoping to delay Oakland's party will be Pedro Hernandez, who is coming off a solid outing against the Rays, surrendering just three earned runs on four hits over five innings. All three runs, however, came via the home run.
"It was two mistakes," Hernandez said afterward.
Athletics: Freiman still nursing abdominal strain
Unable to play since Monday, A's first baseman Nate Freiman is nursing an abdominal strain and there's no timetable for his return.
"He's had an abdomen/oblique thing he's been dealing with for about a week and a half, and that's why he's not in there today," A's manager Bob Melvin explained Friday. "He would've been in there maybe today or tomorrow, but we're not able to get him in there. He hasn't taken batting practice for a few days because of that. We're not sure when we'll get him back."
Freiman sustained the injury while taking swings in the indoor cages
Twins: Plouffe sidelined with wrist discomfort amid hot streak
The same soreness in Trevor Plouffe's left wrist that resulted in his removal from the eighth inning of Thursday's series opener against the A's kept him out of Friday's starting lineup.
The infielder has recorded eight multi-hit games in his last 17 starts and is batting .300 with 12 extra-base hits in 31 games since Aug. 18.
Plouffe said he took 30-40 swings in the batting cage -- his normal number -- and participated in batting practice prior to Friday's game. He said he feels fine.
"I'll just trust him," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "If he tells me he can go up and hit and he takes a few swings out there and everything seems OK, then we'll go from there."
Worth noting
• A's starting pitchers have allowed two runs or fewer in 11 of the last 13 games.
• Josh Donaldson contributed his 54th multi-hit game of the season on Friday night, which is fourth most in Oakland history. The record is 57, set by Miguel Tejada in 2002 and duplicated by Mark Kotsay in 2004.

A dedicated 2/3 backup would be nice--if only Meeks can hit his shots.
That said, if we can stay relatively healthy and develop more chemistry, we can definitely be contenders next year.
Staying healthy is a big if, but I still feel we need more help off the bench. I feel someone in the mold of a Jamal Crawford is needed.
Yeah, definitely a spark plug off the bench would be great a la Crawford or Lamar Odom. Or a Tony Allen type. Even though Memphis lost, the dude was everywhere disrupting passes and making plays when Memphis couldn't get things going. Too bad Meeks just isn't cutting it.
We could put Pau back on the bench since we won a bunch of games that way. Plus, it'll keep his minutes down and keep him fresh. I really hope MDA doesn't run him into the ground again.

KimiWashington, DcWork Well!I think they work well- for me they hold jumbos, but the littler ones flop a bit on my hair. But really, the pins or other type of clip that traditionally come with rollers work fine on the little ones but bad on the larger ones, so I use a mix when I used mix rollers! ConairPro clips on the jumbos and other ones on the little!posted Jan 31, 2008Link to this post
MareliseWashington, DCCan Finally Use Hot RollersI have very fine, slippery hair, the kind that barrettes fall out of, and the kind that definitely doesnt hold hot rollers. But these clips make hot rollers stay in! Now if only I could roll better...but thats a different story.posted Jan 24, 2008Link to this post
DebbieOklahomaSuper Option For Fine HairThese clips are like magic if you have fine, silky, or super straight hair. They also work well if you have hair that is slightly short to be using hot rollers. The wire U shaped clips that come with hot rollers slide right out if you have hair that is fine, silky, or very straight. These clips will hold the finest hair with no problems. If you mist with hairspray or setting spray then roll they work very well for short hair that will only go around the roller one time. The only draw back, if you are too picky, is that you can get a little mark in your hair close to roots if you leave the clip in for a long time. This is easily remedied with a curling iron or flat iron to straighten out the crimp. This only happens on occasion, so I dont consider it a big deal. They are comfortable to wear and leave in for extended periods of time. They are also useful to secion hair from blowdrying,or while braiding. I could not recommend this product more highly.posted Sep 21, 2007Link to this post
LynneOcala, FloridaThe Best EverDont buy a cheaper clip !! If your like me, curler, no matter what they advertise always have a hot end. These clips fully protect your head. They totally wrap around the curler and no matter the size, hold every hair in place tightly. You wont go wrong !!posted Jul 12, 2007Link to this post
AndieWonderful ClipsI love these clips. The curlers I have only come with 15 clips and there are 30 curlers. I was so happy that I found the clips sold on their own. They are great because they dont put kinks/dents in your hair.posted Apr 19, 2007Link to this post
NancyNew YorkLove Em'Glad I bought these, they are very user friendly and I would buy them again for sure. Great price, received them in less than 3 days and great for thick hair!!! Try them ladies, I am sure you will feel the same :)posted Mar 23, 2007Link to this post
Susan SperandeoSlidell,laMust Have For Hot RollersAs a professional cosmetologist I first used this type of clip about a year ago but for 27 years nobody made this type of clip for hot rollers and I used to use small butterfly clips. These work so much better because the teeth fit under even the jumbo rollers. The metal clips that come with most hot rollers are useless. Thanks for these, theyre great!posted Feb 21, 2007Link to this post
SssMultiple UsesI love these Conair Clips because they not only hold my very thick hair with the hot rollers, but they also help in holding my hair in batches when I am styling my hair. They hold up thick hair pretty well.posted Feb 7, 2007Link to this post
MichelleArlington, VABrilliant!These are THE antidote to those standard Conair wire curler clips that dig into the skin and burn if theyre too hot. These clips are lightweight and hold my hair really well without spontaneously springing off the curler across the room. Thanks very much for a terrific option.posted Jan 24, 2007Link to this post
No NameIf You've Never Tried These, You ShouldIf you have never tried these clips with your hot rollers, you should. They are so superior to the old style clips hot rollers used to come with. I consider these clips one of the best discoveries Ive made.posted Jan 5, 2007Link to this post

During maintenance, which started in March, SAMREF boosted the reliability of the fluid catalytic cracker, which helps turn crude oil into gasoline, and upgraded the refinery to produce cleaner fuels.
By SUMMER SAID
DUBAI -- Saudi Aramco has restarted its Red Sea Yanbu refinery, which it owns with ExxonMobil, after nearly two months of maintenance. With the restart, the refinery is bringing a new clean fuels project online. The plant will reach its full capacity this week, two people familiar with the matter said.
The refinery, which is operated by SAMREF, has a capacity of about 400,000 bpd of Saudi Arabian crude oil, half of which is consumed domestically, but will only reach that level in a few days, the people told Dow Jones Newswires.
During maintenance, which started in March, SAMREF boosted the reliability of the fluid catalytic cracker, which helps turn crude oil into gasoline, and upgraded the refinery to produce cleaner fuels. The clean fuels project is expected to reduce sulfur levels by more than 98% in gasoline in 2013 and in diesel by 2016.
SAMREF is the supplier of gasoline in the western region of the kingdom, according to the Saudi Aramco website.
Saudi Arabia is expanding its refining capacity to produce more gasoline and diesel to meet rising domestic demand.
Saudi Aramco owns and operates four refineries serving the local market, with a combined refining capacity of 1 million bpd. The firm also has a 50% interest in SAMREF and in SATORP, a joint venture with Total, which will also produce cleaner fuels.
Dow Jones Newswires
All comments are subject to editorial review. All fields are compulsory.
What is the current strigent sulfur residual in gasoline and diesel fuels. It seems we are getting closer to 0-10ppm residual across the world refining network.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.
Will previously-planned downstream investments be cut back in 2015 due to lower global oil prices?
Yes 58%
No 11%
Depends how long current prices last 30%

My motivation is really "just having the best."
I'm a breeder and you're right, it's boring.
If you don't have the patience/interest for breeding, I wouldn't get into it.
I'd get other people to breed them for you and then you
raise them. What helps me get through it, because I breed a lot, is always having
the chance at hatching a shiny and since you are breeding for competitive,
that shiny will have a good chance at being a competitive shiny if it
has good IVs AND always have youtube videos to watch or Netflix.
Keeps you from getting too bored, too fast lol

Marlins erupt after rain delay to take series win
Solano's HR caps four-run ninth after Brantly scores first run in eighth
DENVER -- The final two innings reminded Mike Redmond of the classic Coors Field games from his playing days, full of lead changes and high-scoring frames. The Marlins scored four runs in the top of the ninth, only to see the Rockies score three in the bottom of the inning, as they eventually held on for the 5-3 victory Thursday afternoon.
After the Marlins woke from their seven-inning slumber, recording just two hits, they finally scored the game's first run in the eighth. Catcher Rob Brantly slid home from third when an Adam Ottavino (0-2) wild pitch careened off catcher Wilin Rosario's glove and rolled to the backstop.
Miami matched its hit total to that point in the eighth with consecutive singles from Brantly and pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs, the second one slipping past first baseman Jordan Pacheco's glove to keep the inning alive.
The lineup returned with renewed energy in the ninth, tearing up Colorado reliever Wilton Lopez for four runs in just five at-bats. Christian Yelich started the hit parade with a ground-rule double to deep left field, and Giancarlo Stanton plated him with a liner to left.
An Ed Lucas single scored Stanton before second baseman Donovan Solano blew the game open with a two-run homer into the left-field seats. The 92-mph sinker was the first pitch Solano saw -- and he knew what was coming.
"The only information I had is that he's got a sinker, he's got a changeup, curveball," said Solano, who is batting .338 with six extra-base hits and six RBIs on the road this year. "But I saw the guy in front of me, with Lucas, he's working a lot of sinkers. So with a man on first, he tried to make a double play, so the pitch was in. [I was] waiting for that pitch."
It gave the Marlins their first series victory of the second half, taking three of four from the Rockies. They return to Miami for a 10-game homestand that starts with three games against the Pirates on Friday night.
The Rockies threatened a dramatic comeback with a three-run ninth, all of them scoring off reliever Kevin Slowey. After a perfect inning each from Dan Jennings (1-1) and Chad Qualls, Slowey failed to record an out, Colorado tagging him for three hits and three runs, two earned.
Closer Steve Cishek quickly recorded the first out before a Nolan Arenado single pulled cut the Marlins' lead to two. But Cishek silenced any further hopes for a ninth-inning rally by forcing Jonathan Herrera into a game-ending double play and picking up his third save of the series.
"All the years I've come here, those are the kind of games you play," Redmond said. "You score two or three or four and you give up two or three. In that situation, we got a five-run lead, Slowey hasn't pitched for awhile, thought it was a perfect situation to get him in there and get him an inning of work."
That no Colorado player crossed home until the ninth inning can be credited largely to Nathan Eovaldi, who allowed just three hits over six innings.
Though a 93-minute rain delay cut his outing short, Eovaldi was dominant enough to match Rockies starter Juan Nicasio's two-hit, seven-inning effort. Three singles were all the Colorado offense could muster off Eovaldi, only one of those runners making it past first base. Arenado dropped a single into right field in the second inning to push Charlie Blackmon to third, the closest the Rockies came to scoring until the ninth.
Eovaldi and Nicasio both pitched through an inning of strong gusts and growing thunder before the grounds crew rolled out the tarp following the top of the seventh.
"I was trying to get out there, try to get another inning in really quick before they stopped it," said Eovaldi, who notched his second scoreless start of the year. "I was hoping it would be a [short delay], but it happened to be like an hour long. It's disappointing, since I was throwing so good, but still pleased with the outing."
It was an impressive return to his earlier form for Eovaldi, who allowed six earned runs and 10 hits in just four innings in his last start, a 6-0 loss to the Brewers.
The Marlins' scuffling offense managed just the two hits through seven innings off Nicasio.
"I was not looking for the strikeout," Nicasio said. "I tried to throw more strikes, locate the fastball and try to go deep in the game."
The Marlins' eight-hit effort came a day after they became the first visiting team in more than 11 years to collect 10 hits without a single extra-base hit. It was enough to turn the tides on a road trip that began with three consecutive shutout losses to the Brewers and left them without a run in 37 innings when they arrived in Denver.
"Great job to salvage what looked like was going to be a really rough road trip," Redmond said. "Win three games here in Colorado, in a tough place to win."

Good Versatile Protection

About Me Avid Gardener
See all my reviews
Comments about Neoprene Work Gloves (1 pr.) - Heavyweight:
I have several pairs of these dedicated to specific uses, from washing the car to mixing concrete. The elbow length keeps you dry and out of whatever you are handling. Concrete and certain soaps eat my skin up, this prevents that. They are lined in cotton which makes them comfortable. When I am finished, I turn the cuffs all of the way down so as to let the inside of the glove get dry so they are fresh as a daisy the next time I need them. A good product, well made, comfortable and priced appropriately because they do last a while. Made in USA too.
Good quality, last a long time
About Me Master Gardener
I use them for everything from washing the car to doing handwash laundry. they protect your hands and last a long time. I have had several pairs of these over the years.I turn the cuffs inside out when I am done to allow the insides to dry. Since your hands stay completely dry for most jobs, they do keep your hands warm. They are also listed as made in the USA which is important to me.

Audio Systems Buying Guide
Buying a stereo system can be a daunting task if you've got limited knowledge of audio components, fortunately many companies out there sell complete audio systems for consumers to make the purchase much easier. Though the term Audio Systems can comprise of many things as it does here on TestFreaks, the category of Audio Systems includes the stereotypical BoomBox, iPod docks, streaming audio systems like the Squeezebox and much more, in this category you can find many different types of audio systems that have many different purposes.
When you're looking to purchase any type of audio, be it for your home or personal use, the old adage 'you get what you pay for' very much applies. Of course there are some exceptions to this as there are with anything, but for the most part if you want good quality audio you're going to have to pay for it.
I personally only purchase audio components from well known and respected companies, I know the quality of the products from companies like Altec Lansing, Logitech, Denon, Sony, Philips and a few others are going to be very good. Though of course these companies do offer budget priced products as well, but even their low priced products are much better than the unknown brands on the market today in terms of build quality, features and actual audio sounds.
If you're in the market for any type of audio system it's always good to first sit down and consider a few things before even starting to look for a product:
What features do you need?
Many products today are packed with features, it seems that companies try and outdo one another with all of the features that are included on some of these items. That can be a good and a bad thing though, these features come at a premium price meaning that you'll be paying extra for those features even if you don't have any use for them. So when you're deciding on an Audio System try and decide what features you'll be needing the most and those features that you'll actually use, sure it's nice to have all kinds of features but why have them if you aren't going to use them? Basically why pay for the advanced features if you have no use for them when you can get a lower priced product that does have the features you need.
What are you going to do with it?
This might seem obvious that the answer is listen to music, but what I mean is what will you be using it for literally, as in what conditions will the product be enduring? If it's going to be sitting on a shelf in your home or office then you don't need something that's rugged and tough, but if you're planning on camping or taking it places with you, transporting it around a lot, you might want to look for a product with features made just for your needs. Some products travel well while others do not, if you're going to be using it outside then you might want to consider something that is water and vibration resistant or even one that you can purchase an optional case for.
Where are you going to be putting it?
This might go with the above question, but not really, this is more of a space related issue. Many companies make products that are virtually the same but only smaller for those that are space limited in their homes or offices, so you might want to consider where you'll be using the product most often. If you're in the market for a nice audio system you should make sure that it's going to fit in your current entertainment center, living room or where ever you'll be putting it, you don't want to buy something only to find out that's it's not going to fit where you planned on putting it.
What are you going to be using it with?
Compatibility, compatibility, and compatibility! I can't stress that enough when it comes to purchasing anything audio or even technical related. I've known many people purchase things only to get it home and find out that it doesn't work with the intended product or it's just not compatible with their other products. Sure most usually in a situation like this you can go and get an adapter, but of course that adds yet more cost and another trip to the store or possibly having to wait for the adapter to be delivered. Why not just make sure what you are purchasing is compatible with your products first? With a little research you can find out what works with what and even how well it works with those intended products. Many times products are listed as being compatible with things but in reality they truly aren't, there are times when you'll see a product with compatibilities listed but only to find out they are limited in what they can do, in other words some products are more compatible than others. There are times when something is listed as being compatible but when you get it home you find that their definition of 'compatible' means that only the basic functions work and you don't have access to the advanced features that you may intend to use or may have specifically purchased the product for. This of course is where a little bit of research beforehand would have really helped in the decision to purchase said product or not.
When purchasing an audio system of any kind be sure to look at the reviews or ratings of these products, there are times that even with a well known company that you might find one of there products is lacking in one are or another. Doing a bit of research and finding out what other people have to say about a product will save you money, time and frustration in the long run. You don' want to go and buy something that you know nothing about, even the big name companies have products that are not up to par at times and don't perform as they are advertised to.
Places like Testfreaks.com, product review websites and even magazines are great places to look and learn about any type of audio product you might be considering buying, these resources can be invaluable to consumers when making any types of purchases. These sources of information will tell you things about products that the manufacturer might not, you'll most likely get to see actual pictures of the products, ratings with pros and cons and you'll even find actual everyday user comments as well to let you know what the average person thinks about such products.
