Nomar on NESN
9.18.02: Nomar Garciaparra (NG) on NESN's 'Extra Innings' with Bob Rodgers (BR) and Jim Corsi (JC):
BR: Well let's get to it, the story today in local paper blew everyone away...
NG: (laughed) someone told me to read it... I love it here, always felt that way, I never said I wanted to go anywhere... the fans here are great, they embrace me (remembered our sign), I've embraced them.. one thing to be cynical or be criticized on the field.
JC: You don't call up the scorekeeper?
NG: I talked about that earlier today (with Debbie Wrobleski), never met the guy (Scoggins/scorekeeper/sun-in-eyes)... I'm not here to bash anybody. The fans aren't going to sink to that level too. Go out there, play as hard as you can. Sometimes you're going to make mistakes, like today.
JC: You don't deserve to play here?
NG: I'm proud of this uniform. I have pride. Think of those who have played here before me.
JC: I love this guy, he's a good kid, works hard, he gets a lot of negative press for nothing.
NG: I learned a lot more. I grew up in California. People told me "don't go to the East, it's going to ruin baseball for you," I said 'what people are going to be here in the first inning, here in the last?' they were ... that's why I love it so much. We're fans too, we care... we have high expectations... sometimes you don't make those expectations, those standards are frustrating. Sometimes things don't come out the way you want them to when you're frustrated. Something you say in the moment.
BR: How do you stay positive (with negative). Media driven?
NG: I don't know if it was media driven. Not the fans. Sometimes it's the clubhouse demeanor too, especially this year... two guys 20 games, 2 guys 100 RBI, ERA leader... why are we packing it up? No stories about this guy not doing stuff outside the games. I don't want to see this team break up. Good hearts, good people.
BR: As much as everyone wants to say "We love you Nomar"... let's get to some questions.
NG: Casey has had a great year, coming up big for us.
JC: You're your hardest critic, you were out last year now over 110 RBI (more stats) what more can you do here?
NG: When season's over, I go look in the mirror, ask 'what do I have to do to make this better?'
Bob in Wrentham: Thanks... Buckley's comments were appalling, shouldn't have anything to do with the Herald, Nomar's a great player, I was there getting pictures of Nomar, daughter's autographs... blah, blah... he doesn't cut my grass.. inspiration for the team... lucky to have him... Steve Buckley needs to get new job.
Chris Boston: Holy cow. Wanted to thank you for play. Media never going to be satisfied. Talking Patriots, took three years and here we are year one with new management, not even given a year...
BR: Is it more negative?
NG: Well it's always positive when you win, not positive when you don't win... sounds positive to me hearing the fans out there cheering, they don't have to buy into what one person's opinion is, they're way above that.
NG: I tell them (other players) it's not like any other place. This is the first uniform I put on and I want it to be the last one I take off when I pack it up with the family.
Karen Whitney TX: We love you down here in Texas. Nomar with an 'R"... I cannot not believe they say Nomah... what about damage control tonight taking Casey out?
NG: That's what bullpen's for, got a lot out of him....
BR: Errors?
NG: I know I'm gonna get some because I'm gonna go for that ball, make the routine ones, not gonna stop trying, the pitcher's going to appreciate it... pop up in the sky, you have those, you're gonna have errors.
JC: He's got the strongest arm I've ever seen in the hole...set his feet in the hole, way over the top, good cheese on the ball...
NG: I don't know, arm still attached
BR: Trade talk
NG: Somebody said something earlier. I want to stay here. Do we have control over that stuff? No. But that's why I signed a long term deal.
Rob in Billerica: You said all the right things, glad to hear you talk positive. Probably the most disappointing season in Red Sox history. Good to hear how positive you are. What keeps you positive?
NG: People like you. The fans keep me positive. There isn't a better place to win the World Series. Once we do I can take it easy because I'll be celebrating.
Fan: Don't want to trade you, but stop hacking at that first pitch...
NG: Hey that's the way I played as a kid, got a couple of batting titles... JC: You're hitting .400...
NG: In years past, maybe you were going to see pitcher down the line, not so much now... if I'm swinging well, I'm going to swing at the first ball... people said 'if it doesn't work, don't talk to me"
NG: I tell people, I don't look good walking... I got a bat in my hand
Bill North Attleboro: Congrats on a great year. What's it gonna take to get past Yankees.
NG: We don't need much, same record as Minnesota Twins. Great bunch of guys. Break it down to one-run ballgames. Inter-league, not a big fan. We played the best team in MLB six times. It happens. I really like these guys. What needs to change? I don't know. These are great guys. Great individuals. No one is talking about them as individuals.
BR: What do you do outside of baseball?
NG: Rest, relax. See family at home, go to beach. Travel here, there. Just like everybody else. Boston has great character. It's a natural city, it's awesome. I used to take the T around. Nice day I'm still going to walk down the street. People see me I say hey...
NG: Not here to talk about Manny, not going to take sides. He's got 100 RBIs, going for batting title. That's what I'll talk about. He apologized to everyone. Apologized to me. He sure is showing it (that he's the best hitter in baseball).
BR: I watch Manny, how still that head it, ball explodes off bat.
NG: Yes, hits ball hard. Like Cliff Floyd, they ask 'how's he hitting?' Hard. Almost got thrown out on ball off CF wall it was hit so hard.
BR: Since you've been here nothing bad about Nomar or Manny off field... must have hurt today
NG: Well when they criticize play on the field, but when it's a personal attack... when you start getting on someone's character, hey, you're going to another level.
Call: Do you think Boston is missing a couple of pieces to the pie to get to playoffs?
NG: We didn't think we had anything missing this year. Sometimes you need a luck, ball bounces that way. I like these guys. I like going into battle with them. If you keep this team together, the results could be different.
Joe Concord NH: ...got everything in place you need, what's it going to take to keep this core together?
NG: Don't really know what management is thinking up top. How people's contracts are worded. Don't know what it's going to take to keep these guys. But a lot of guys feel exactly the same way I do (love it here).
BR: Position by position, everything is good... really an enigma what went wrong.
NG: Sometimes it takes a little luck. Oakland A's.
JC: Can't compare baseball to football, not a rah rha thing.
NG: Football different, fired up for one game a week. Baseball being every day, sometimes you have to be even keeled.
JC: You can lead by example too.
NG: Every time you lose, people say you need a leader. Just because we're not talking to the media, doesn't mean we don't have leaders there.
BR: So in the last 45 minutes, safe to say you love it in Boston.
NG: Oh yeah, I do... I don't want to leave.

Fiji Time: 4:01 AM on Sunday 26 April

Solomoni Biumaiono Thursday, January 03, 2013
+ Enlarge this image
Rahul Kumar, front, sitting and watching his watermelons along with his neighbour and friend Rajneel Chand, 17. Picture: SOLOMONI BIUMAIONO
RAHUL Ravi Kumar is very knowledgeable on how to look after watermelons when they are being sold at the market.
He knows that watermelons do love to be pampered and as Kumar puts it, "you need to treat them like children. If it rains, you keep them inside the house".
In fact he is knowledgeable about a few other things too.
The 22-year-old from Nakasi is selling watermelons at the Bailey bridge at Jerusalem/Nokonoko roads junction alongside friends with neighbour, 17-year-old Rajneel Chand.
Selling watermelons is Kumar's job at the moment as he hops from job to job throughout the year to earn a living.
"Apart from selling watermelons, I also know a bit about mechanics and I have also worked in car washes and also worked as a grass cutter. I also do other jobs where I earn money for my family," Kumar said.
He said he was forced to leave school in Form Three because his older brother contracted diabetes and he had to earn to support his family.
"I have forgotten the year it happened but I left school because of family problems when my brother had diabetes," Kumar said.
Coming from a family with five brothers and two sisters, it was not hard for Kumar to make up his mind as he has his family at heart. And he has ever since been hopping from job to job because he is not qualified and yet his determination to cobble together a livelihood from these odd jobs has endured.
"I would rather be selling this and doing other jobs than going to do a robbery for money," Kumar said bluntly. "It is better that I struggle like this than to do robbery.
"I am doing what is it I can do to help my family out and make sure that we're OK and I would say that is better than to go and kerekere (beg) there, kerekere there," Kumar said.
He has plans to get married soon but his first priority is to build his own home and he is saving as much as he can in order to achieve his aim.
"Yes but getting married is not good for me right now. I don't want my children to be struggling but I really want a place of my own," Kumar said.
His friend, the 17-year-old Chand says he is accompanying Kumar because it's the holidays and he wanted a job to keep himself occupied. The Form Five student is sacrificing his holidays accompanying Kumar to the Bailey bridge.
Since Christmas they have to get up very early to go to their boss's place before they have to be at the market by eight or nine each morning.
With the southern hemisphere summer weather in Fiji, Kumar said the melons had been selling like hot cakes since Christmas.Whenever it rains he knows they're going to take less money home.
"Selling these melons depends a lot on the weather because if the sun is shining we know plenty people will buy, but if it's raining that is a bad day for us and that is one thing too, melons don't like the rain.
"They have to be put inside the house and kept there. Many times we have to throw melons away because they have gone bad because of the rain," Kumar said.
His knowledge is near to that of a farmer as he knows a bit of everything. A jack-of-all-trades indeed.

I've really got flowers on the mind this summer.
I love these leopard flats from Target, but I felt like they needed something vampy.
There is a tutorial on how to make a different type of zipper rose corsage here or you can check out my very own tutorial here.

Delnaaz Paul has made a mark for herself on both the big as well as small screen, but the actress is still open to trying something new and innovative.
"I want to do new stuff which is innovative and is different from what I normally do. I am open to doing other television shows as well," Delnaaz, who is currently seen in Sony's "Kya Hua Tera Vaada", told IANS.
The actress reveals she is also open to doing reality shows, especially which involves dance and is eager to be a part of popular show "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa".
"I have done a lot of dance reality shows, but I wish I was a part of "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa". I have always been wanting to do it. I enjoy dance reality shows and I am always open to it," said Delnaaz, who was seen in dance-based shows like "Zara Nach Ke Dikha' and "Nach Baliye".
As far as her big screen career is concerned, Delnaaz has got the opportunity to work with the creme da la creme of Bollywood like Preity Zinta, Kareena Kapoor and Salman Khan but says Shah Rukh Khan holds a special place in her heart.
"The working experience with all of them was superb. There is a special place for Shah Rukh because I have done three films with him. The first one was 'Kal Ho Naa Ho', then 'Bhoothnath' and then a cameo in 'RA.One'. It feels good," she said.
"All of them are superstars in their own way. The working atmosphere is professional. It's a great feeling to work with them. I have worked with Rishiji (Kapoor), Dimpleji(Kapadia), Jaya Bachchanji, Preity Zinta, Kareena and Salman Khan.
"I think I am really blessed to have worked with these people. It's been a boon to work with such big stars and have a good rapport with them," she added.

Priyanka Naithani, TNN | Sep 11, 2012, 12.00AM IST
In Balika Vadhu, the
love triangle has always been the highpoint of the show. First, there
was the Anandi-Jagya-Gauri saga. And now it is the Anandi-Jagya-Shiv
love triangle. A similar drama is unfolding in Kya Huaa Tera Vaada where
Pradeep (Pawan Shankar), who left his wife Mona ( Mona Singh)
and started living with his girlfriend, is jealous to see his wife with
her boss. A love triangle is forming between Mona, Vineet (Darshan
Pandya) and Pradeep.
Even in Parichay, Ronit Diwan
(Mahesh Shetty) is the new man in Siddhi's (Keerti Nagpure) life thus
leading to a love triangle between Kunal-Sidhi-Ronit. Bade Achhe Lagte Hain,
which recently took a leap of five years, also has a new twist in the
storyline. Priya (Sakshi Tanwar), who is currently living with her
daughter Pihu in Dubai, works for business tycoon Rajat Kapur (Samir Kochhar) who has developed feelings for her.
"For any story telling, conflict is very important. A love triangle
always helps in enhancing the romance between couples. Unless the
romance goes through opposition, hurdle, intolerance, there is no
excitement in a love story," says Rajan Shahi, producer of Amrit Manthan where two sisters Amrit and Nimrit are fighting for the same guy, Agam Malik.
So, is a love triangle specially introduced to spice up the show?
According to the producer Sudhir Sharma, there was always a subtle love
triangle between Mohan (Kunal Karan Kapoor), Megha (Aakanksha Singh) and
her dead husband in the show, Na Bole Tum...Na Maine Kuch Kaha.
He feels that some love triangles are the main-stay of the show, while
others are introduced to spice up the drama. "Whether it is a saas-bahu
saga or a comic show, every serial's backdrop is a love story. As show
makers, we always try to introduce new angles in the storyline. Love
triangles sometimes come naturally and they are dramatic to portray and
interesting to watch," says Sharma. When TRPs of a soap start falling,
the only plot that comes to rescue for the producers is the introduction
of a love triangle. "When there are five episodes in a week, it is very
important to keep the audience hooked by adding some news plots every
time," he adds.
Love stories always attract viewers, whether on
television or on the silver screen. "Be it cinema or television, love
stories always work. The story lacks spice unless two lovers go through a
difficult situation, are unable to meet, and a third person gets
involved in their lives," says producer JD Majethia of Byaah Hamari Bahoo Ka.
Why do audiences get hooked by love triangles? "Because television is a
reflection of the society. In real life too, many are unable to be with
the one they love, and when that is shown on TV, they can connect with
it. As a maker, it is very important to involve the audience.
Introducing a love triangle is the best way to do so," Majethia adds.
The viewers are always curious to know whether a couple will unite in
the show or not. Even shows like Pavitra Rishta, Dil Se Di Dua... Saubhagyavati Bhava, Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon and Kuch Toh Log Kahenge are cashing in on the love triangle formula.

Raytheon Company was awarded a $1.5 million Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) contract for phase one of the agency's Space Enabled Effects for Military Engagements (SeeMe) program. During the next nine months, the company will complete the design for small satellites to enhance warfighter situational awareness in the battlespace. The SeeMe program will provide useful on-demand imagery information directly to the warfighter in the field from a low-cost satellite constellation launched on a schedule that conforms to Department of Defense operational tempos. For this contract, Raytheon has teamed with Sierra Nevada Corporation, University of Arizona and SRI International to assist with design work and eventually production. Next year, in phase two of the SeeMe program, the Raytheon team would build six satellites for ground testing. |

The county's top medical professional espouses a very simple idea, but one that can make all the difference — exercise with arthritis.
Auglaize County Medical Director Dr. Juan Torres said while exercise is important to a wide variety of people for just as many reasons, it's especially important to the 50 million suffering from arthritis, inflammation of joints, which causes pain, swelling, stiffness and limited movement.

A local farmer will likely see a significant increase in his business expenses in the near future. Personnel from several different county and state agencies investigated a significant fish kill in Pusheta and Owl creeks on Friday. Workers from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Auglaize Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD), the Auglaize County Emergency Management Agency (EMA), the Ohio Division of Wildlife and the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) gathered at the scene at 9 a.m. after receiving a call about numerous dead fish in the two creeks.
Despite initial concerns about when Auglaize County may be reimbursed for grant-funded renovations at the courthouse, the Auglaize County commissioners no longer are anticipating any delays. While the commissioners authorized an advance of the $1.16 million which they are still owed from a state grant covering HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) and lighting portions of the project, from the county's general fund into the county's permanent improvement Fund this week, Commissioner Doug Spencer said it was an accounting issue.
In 2009, Rebecca Luthman had numerous luminaria and 14 torches taken out in her name by members of the public and the team formed to support her. For Melissa Deal, the torches were the most she had ever seen for one person. Deal, who has been involved with the luminaria and the torches for approximately five years, returned this year to organizing the luminaria for the 15th annual Relay for Life. While the torches have been discontinued, Deal and the rest of the Relay for Life Committee have given a couple twists to the luminaria.
Alma Anna (Feil) Camper, 103, of Wapakoneta, died at 7:45 a.m. Friday, March 16, 2012, at The Gardens, Wapakoneta.

Purchased battery with mower in late April-early May 2011. Battery was junk by the beginning of October 2012. Even stored indoors and never allowed to freeze. Recharged once at standard settings (6 amps 12V), held charge for a week and then never took a second charge. Store customer service was great except for having to by a whole new battery. Not looking for a free ride; just stating the facts.

Jeffrey Sachs spoke at Haverford on April 13.
Jeffrey Sachs Addresses Economic and Environmental Crises in Inaugural Lecture for Social Justice
"This is a room filled with future leaders," Jeffrey Sachs told the students gathered in Founders Hall. "And the problems we discuss today will all have to be solved by you in the future."
On Monday, April 13, Sachs gave the Inaugural Lecture for Social Justice, sponsored by the Offices of the President and Provost; his talk was called "Emerging Prosperous, Fair, and Sustainable from the Global Economic Crisis." Sachs is a professor of sustainable development and health management at Columbia University, as well as director of Columbia's Earth Institute, and also serves as an adviser to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon. He is considered to be one of the leading economic advisers of his generation.
Sachs stressed that the economy means more than simple dollars and cents: "It's the life-and-death struggle of the poor, and the plight of the planet." He compared the current economic crisis to a slot machine turning up three lemons, and defined the economy by three "uns": It is unstable, unfair, and unsustainable.
The instability comes as a result of what Sachs calls an "odd period" in American society, an era that began in the 1980s with Ronald Reagan's statement "The government is not the solution but the problem." Deregulation became the norm, as the cutting back of government services, the lowering of taxes, and the capping of public expenditures were seen as routes to economic prosperity.
Sachs assailed the term "free-market economy." "There is only one such economy, and it's in your introductory textbooks, because they are bad textbooks," he said. "They portray an economy which doesn't exist." The danger of free-market economics, he said, is the false idea that a market economy is a self-organizing system. "We've spent 30 years living a fantasy."
Also contributing to the current instability, according to Sachs, is the fact that for 20 years the Central Bank was led by one person, Alan Greenspan. "It's bad to have a government institution governed for 20 years by anyone," he said. "People don't own positions." Greenspan took an activist approach to the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve, increasing the money supply and lowering interest rates when the economy weakened.
In the late 90s and early 2000s, said Sachs, there were three "bubbles" of economic prosperity. The first occurred in 1997, when the U.S. lent money to Asian banks to shore up their financial systems. The second came in 1998, with the dot-com boom and startup companies worth billions of dollars. Finally, in 2002, interest rates dropped to low levels in the wake of 9/11 and the housing market responded in kind. "Can you sign your name? Here, have a house. Can't sign your name? Have a house anyway," Sachs joked.
Then, as other countries' banks began borrowing from the U.S., the worldwide stock market soared. But halfway into the first decade of the 21st century, the bubbles crashed to Earth. "The world suffered $40 trillion in losses," said Sachs. "There was more consumer debt, more houses built than people could afford."
The unfairness of society also played a significant role in exacerbating the economic crisis. "The keys to power were handed over to the financial markets," said Sachs. "American power was radically dominated by Wall Street. CEOs took over American monetary and financial policy, deregulated everything, made tremendous amounts of money, and left taxpayers with several trillion in losses." The prominence of the oil industry, especially during the two Bush administrations, said Sachs, also adversely affected the environment, as oil companies fought efforts to address climate change.
Today, said Sachs, the U.S. has the worst social indicators among the world's highest-income countries. "For 30 years there have been no innovations in social policy," he lamented. "The health system has been unreformed, children are chronically hungry, our infant mortality rate is high. And society treats it as normal when hunger and health needs are unattended." On a global scale, he added, the poverty is even more shocking: "I've looked at people who are hungry to the risk of death." The world, he said, cannot remain on its present course and sustain itself.
"You are the answers," he told the audience in Founders.
Sachs offered no easy solutions or quick fixes, but he did provide hints to tackling the problems head-on. "This crisis is an opportunity that shouldn't be missed," he said. "We have the best president in modern history to change the direction of the economy." He said that the market economy needs to be put "back in place," that the government should be efficient, monitored for lawfulness, and protect those who can't be protected by the market alone. Sachs also suggested that the market be circumscribed within environmental constraints: "We will tell Washington what kind of cars we should be driving, in which technologies we should invest." A new food system (agriculture, he said, is the number one emitter of greenhouse gases) and a renewable energy system are also necessary.
"We are so far from out of the woods," Sachs concluded, "and we must do all we can to shift the world's path to a stable, fair, sustainable trajectory. This is the job of your generation."

I toast with Heywood Banks. Yeah toast!
BTW, if you haven't seen Heywood live, do so, even if you have to mortgage the house to do it. Watching him playing the Tastemaster four-slice toaster in the crumb-tray-down position is worth the price of admission, but add to it his tribute to the Garden Weasel, and you'll wet yourself with laughter.

Seoul, South Korea — North Korea bombarded a South Korean island near their disputed western border Tuesday, setting buildings ablaze and killing at least two marines after warning the South to halt military drills in the area, South Korean officials said.
South Korea said it returned fire and scrambled fighter jets in response, and said the "inhumane" attack on civilian areas violated the 1953 armistice halting the Korean War. The two sides technically remain at war because a peace treaty was never negotiated.
Hours after the skirmish, North Korea's supreme military command threatened to continue strikes against its rival if it violated their disputed sea border "even 0.001 millimeter," according to the North's official Korean Central News Agency.
The skirmish came amid high tension over North Korea's claim that it has a new uranium enrichment facility, and just six weeks after North Korean leader Kim Jong Il unveiled his youngest son Kim Jong Un as his heir apparent.
The United States, which has tens of thousands of troops stationed in South Korea, condemned the attack and called on North Korea to "halt its belligerent action," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said in Washington. He said the United States is "firmly committed" to South Korea's defense, and to the "maintenance of regional peace and stability."
The North's artillery struck the small South Korean-held island of Yeonpyeong, which houses military installations and a small civilian population and which has been the focus of two previous deadly battles between the Koreas.
Two South Korean marines were killed and 16 injured, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said. Island residents escaped to about 20 shelters in the island and sporadic shelling ended after about an hour, according to the military.
The firing came during South Korean military drills in the area. North Korea's military had sent a message to South Korea's armed forces early Tuesday to demand that the drills stop, but the South continued them, the JCS said.

Physica is a Dutch series of peer-reviewed, scientific journals of physics by Elsevier. It was founded in 1934 as a single journal entitled Physica and was split in a three-part series in 1975 (Physica A, Physica B, Physica C). Physica D was created in 1980, and Physica E in 1998. It was published in Utrecht until 2007, and is now published in Amsterdam by Elsevier.
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications[edit]
Physica A was created in 1975 as a result of the splitting of Physica in 1975. It is concerned with statistical mechanics and its applications, particularly random systems, fluids and soft condensed matter, dynamical processes, theoretical biology, econophysics, complex systems, and network theory.
Physica A is published by Elsevier/North-Holland on a bimonthly basis (24 times per year).
Physica B: Condensed Matter[edit]
Physica B was created in 1975 as a result of the splitting of Physica in 1975. It is concerned with condensed matter physics and its applications, particularly solid state and low-temperature physics. Some conference proceedings are published in special editions of Physica B.
Physica B is published by Elsevier/North-Holland on an at-least monthly basis (12 times per year, sometimes more).
Physica C: Superconductivity and its Applications[edit]
Physica C created in 1975 as a result of the splitting of Physica in 1975. It is a "rapid communications" type of journal, concerned with the topic superconductivity, superconductive materials, and connected phenomena.
Physica C is published by Elsevier/North-Holland, two or three times per month.
Physica D: Nonlinear Phenomena[edit]
Physica D was created in 1980 as an expansion of the Physica series. It is concerned with nonlinear physics and nonlinear phenomena in general.
Physica D is published by Elsevier/North-Holland on a bimonthly basis (24 times a year).
Physica E: Low-dimensional Systems and Nanostructures[edit]
Physica E was created in 1998 as an expansion of the Physica series. It is concerned with nanostructures and thin films research, particularly the properties of quantum dots, quantum wells, quantum wires, and both bilayer and multilayer thin-film devices.
Physica E is published by Elsevier/North-Holland 10 times a year.

This morning Tyler had phone calls he had to make. Rather than tell the kids to "be quite" over and over I took them to a new park. We went to Indian Island. We all had fun and debated how many stars to give it. Since we had such a good time they originally wanted to give it 5 but then they decided to give it 3. It is worth going back to but not top of the list.
The beach was fun. They found crabs, shells and rocks to throw. They loved the drift wood and enjoyed the trails. The trails were a little close to the road. Not unsafe close but close enough you could hear the cars which kept it from being peaceful.
Spencer forgot his sweatshirt and Adele was kind enough to share with him. It was really sweet of her and Spencer said "it actually fits me really well".
It was a fun morning. There really are so many beautiful places here.

Got the missing parts in today. Had a little free time and what do you know....? The passer its almost done.
I made a few small errors like punching all the way through the wing top when mounting the servos. Good thing I saved the covering flaps that were cut out from the bottom side of the servo pockets. I flowed some CA along the doubler inside the servo pocket as the first one popped free as I drilled the pilot holes. I made a U shaped wire to hold the motor leads away from the motor can. I made a balsa doubler to span the wing bolt . I often use too much grunt on those and I did not want to break the top sheeting on the wing. |

I deflowered my HK Specter 1800 which, as you may know, is their version of the Passer X. Mine turned out quite a bit heavier than I wanted but it still has an excellent glide. My bare airframe weighed almost as much as HobbyKing's claim for a AUW but I could save a few ounces in the power train if it seems to suffer. However, I am very impressed with the glide even at almost 800 grams.
My first test glide nearly ended as a lawn dart. After about 5 clicks of up trim I needed the spoilerons to keep it in the field on the second test glide. About 10 seconds at 70 degrees got me as high as I wanted in the twilight and I could make multiple circuits of the field even with no lift. It rolls cleanly with almost no altitude loss. My setup is: HK KDA 22-20L HK 9.5X8 prop with 32mm spinner. 11.1v 20C 1300mah lipo HK "Blue Series" 4A ESC Turnigy/FlySky micro 6 channel RX 4X HXT 900 servos |
Well done, Peter! Any idea why it was heavy? That said, 800g is not all that bad. Most turn out 700g or less. Nothing in your set-up looks heavy. Glad it's worked out for you. Welcome to the X Club!

Thanks, Straight Up.
I think I got a heavy airframe. I could save about 30 grams with a lighter motor and go with a somewhat smaller battery but those are the only places where I might have gone a little lighter. I'm also going to lose a few grams when I replace the long, plugged, servo extensions with soldered ones. I think I'll probably end up replacing the stock push rods as well. I'll be chronicling future flights here: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1688351 |
I was ready to button her up and go to the field, when I decided to do a little more bench testing on the servos and get the throws closer to trimmed. Boy, I'm glad I did. I had chosen a no-name 25 amp esc because it fit nicely, had long motor leads and the right sized bullet connectors. After 60 seconds of motor running, btw - it will hover at about 60% throttle - I was working on the epa and expo when the right aileron started to go to full up deflection every time I bumped the end of the elevator throw... hmm that would be a wreck had it been in the air. I forced myself to switch esc - less than 20 minutes including soldering bullets , to a 35 amp with a dual bec. that ought to work, even with the HK 9 gram servos.

A lot of people have lighter Passers, Camelboy. Of course, mine is the HobbyKing Specter. I might have just been unlucky and gotten a heavy one or maybe the manufacturer is sending "seconds" to HK. It's also possible that the two are not identical and the HK version is just heavier. In any event I didn't do anything that would add weight to the airframe and I don't see how one could get anywhere near the 680 gram AUW claimed by HobbyKing without going with smaller servos and a much less powerful motor using a 2 cell battery.

Yeah, maybe I just got a little lucky. However, I used only three servos, the 1300mah thunder power prolite battery, 22t/930 torque motor which weighs 2.1 oz, 9x6 carbon aero-haut prop, and a carbon rod for the tail. Enough power for me, climbs pretty quick. |

I think I would have to gnaw off my left thumb to fly without positive yaw control, LOL.
I could save an ounce or so on the motor and can save a few grams by replacing the pushrods but, since the bare airframe was just under 600grams, there's only so much I could do. If it proves to be completely hopeless at thermaling I might try to "fix" it but based on my one test flight so far I really think it will be fine. In the mean time I'll enjoy having a glider that gets to altitude in about 10 seconds! |
Looking for Ideas for new Exit Cooling Holes
Am looking for ideas for new exit air cooling holes. When I repaired a broken fuselage, the fix plugged the exit hole at the back. So no cooling air is comming out the back.
I am considering putting a hole in the back top of the canopy (won;t weaken the fus). Also considering putting a hole in the flat spot on top of the fus just behind the wing (might not make the fuse weaker). Any comments or ideas are welcome. Thanks, Dave F >< *> |

Cooling and such.
Hi, got-one.
I just drilled a 3/8 inch exit hole in the bottom about mid cord and enlarged it a bit with the dremel. I also added some small scoops made from plastic spoons to the cooling holes. The ESC gets stuck to the canopy with Velcro which gets it away from the battery and adds a little extra friction to the fit of said canopy. |

Plus, if test glides prove anything, I won't be disappointed in its performance in lift. After 40 years and forgetting more gliders than many will ever fly I don't think I've ever had a plane fly farther on a hand launch. A good airfoil and a clean design go a long way towards making up for a couple ounces in weight. |

I finally joined purveyor of daily deals, Groupon, tonight and I was amazed to find how well it's working for some local Portland restaurants.
Wild Abandon recently sold 2861 $12 Groupons, while Elephants Delicatessen sold 7206 $7 deals.
Groupon uses the power of the crowd to drive prices down and volume up–the deal doesn't go through and Groupon users are not charged if a minimum number of Groupons are not purchased.
When the minimum is met, customers get a screamin' deal and the businesses who issue Groupons bring thousands of people through their doors. I know I'm late to the party but this is pretty impressive stuff.
Here's a video that explains how Groupon works.

I might get the vita now. I haven't bought a console since the Gamecube but I've gotten the PSP and DSs up to the 3DS. The vita looks great but the memory is just too expensive and with Android I can emulate all the games from yesteryear. I've been waiting for a few things: First the price of Vita memory to drop and second for the Vita to get hacked. It has kinda been hacked but no good emulators yet.

said by DirectTV :Service Fee: In the event that one of the following products: all TVs, all computer systems, home theater systems, tablets, netbooks, laptops and monitors less than 24 in size requires service, you will be required to pay a fifty ($50) dollar Service Fee. The Service Fee must be paid and received in advance of the service being provided and may be paid by a valid credit card. NOTE: You will not be charged a Service Fee for claims related to any other product; however, the costs associated with the repair or replacement of the product will apply toward the Aggregate Limit under this Plan.
1 recommendation
He also has told me "If you have any more problems call me directly, just do not call DirectTV or i will be in big trouble." But i do not see a reason to scam someone by charging them for service when they should not have, because the charge billed to the DirectTV bill. No cash was exchanged.
I agree with you all %100. Thing is the tech was very nice.

- 11" X 14" is a good size for a sketchbook. Easy to carry around in a bag. I suggest wirebound, especially if you're leaving the book with artists as it's easier to manage for them. You don't necessarily have to leave your book with them; they'll often crank it out for you while you watch and talk. If you're going for something more elaborate, then you could either leave the book or just tear out a page. Most artists will be able to finish the sketch before you leave, especially if you have to leave by a certain time or day. If they can't, then you can arrange with the particular artist to have it sent once it's done.- matt

pointed out, your best bet is to get to a more popular artist (like
Perez, Linsner, Adam Hughes, etc.) as early as possible. You're
also more likely to get a sketch from these artists if you're at the
con for more than one day as between signing books and personal
time, they can probably only do a few sketches each day. I know
George Perez does a lot of his at night.
> Fees also very depending on the popularity of the artist and what

probably pay and the more elaborate the sketch, the more you'll
probably pay. I paid $100 for Adam Hughes to do a full-figure
marker sketch at a convention a few years ago. Some aspiring
artists will do a pencil sketch for you for as little as $15 though.
> Your best bet to get inexpensive, and sometimes even free,
sketches is to get yourself a sketch book. If you're happy with a
small, simple sketch from an artist, they'll often do one for free
in your sketch book because A) they assume you're not going to rip
up your sketch book to sell a relatively simple sketch and B) even
if you do, you're not going to make much. A couple years ago at San
Diego Dave Stevens sketched a simple little Rocketeer head in my
sketch book for free. I don't think he was doing any eleborate
sketches though.
> Which brings me to my final point - it depends on the convention.
At a convention where the artist expects to have long lines, or
where they go to do business, they often won't do sketches at all.
Pittsburgh is just the right size convention though - they attract
some really good artists, but the crowds aren't so huge that the
artists don't have time to sketch.

Title: Patch Burning on Grasslands: Effects on Fuels, Fire Behavior, and Fire Spread
Project Proposal Abstract: Using the fire-grazing interaction is a new paradigm of rangeland management (Fuhlendorf and Engle 2001) that simultaneously enhances biological diversity and maintains livestock production on rangelands with a long history of herbivory by large ungulates (i.e., Great Plains grasslands). Traditional rangeland management generally attempts to reduce the heterogeneity inherent in rangelands. Although fuel characteristics, fire behavior, and the influence of fire on invasive species (i.e., Juniperus virginiana) have been described, these descriptions apply to grasslands managed for homogeneity (i.e., uniform fuel beds). Our goal is to quantify the influence of patch burning on fuels and fire behavior where patch burning is used in a landscape approach to managing fuels and reducing wildfire potential in grasslands. Ultimately, our goal is to produce a model that optimizes patch burning to reduce fire spread across grassland landscapes. Patch burning allows free selection by large ungulates among burned and unburned patches within a landscape. Intense grazing within burned patches is rotated across the landscape over several years. Therefore, landscape patches differ in plant composition and live herbaceous and dead fuel accumulated since a patch was burned. The result is a shifting mosaic of altered fuel types that may impede wildfire spread while at the same time may provide greater control of invasive plant species (Juniperus virginiana) and habitat improvement for grassland obligate wildlife. Our evaluation could result in an innovative alternative for managing grassland fuels to reduce wildfire spread while simultaneously enhancing biological diversity. Patch burning allows fine fuels accumulation on patches to be burned (i.e., not recently burned), potentially contributing to more effective woody plant control. These patches are dispersed across the landscape within a matrix of patches that have been more recently burned and have less accumulated fine fuel, which would potentially limit wildfire spread. We will develop technology transfer mechanisms to deliver this technology. This proposal relates to the third element of Task 4 in the AFP 2003-1, that is, to evaluate the impacts of changing fire suppression and fire use policies, and the interaction of fire and other factors (such as grazing, invasive species, etc.) on ecosystem structure and health.

The Spirit
A typeface project that I have been working on, The intention was to create a font that would be cool to use as a header and not for text, what I like the most about it is the contrast straight lines/curves and the fact that it is not a perfect typeface in terms of character length, these differences create an interesting dynamism in the balance of the words it composes. Hope you enjoy…

A new survey shows that affluent investors may be overly optimistic when it comes to predicting their readiness for retirement. The poll from Charles Schwab found that while respondents now earn an average of $115,000, they think they only need about $66,000 in retirement, and most plan to work part time or not at all after they retire. In reality, said a Schwab official, most retirees need their same annual income after they retire unless they dramatically change their lifestyle.

I thought I'd post a quick update on my progress with knitting the Miette pattern; in brief, I've been going great guns!
The Saturday after I bought the yarn I cast on... and due to other circumstances my plans for the day fell through so I ended up knitting pretty much all day in front of some DVDs, and got to where you separate off the sleeves by the end of the day.
I've been knitting away here and there ever since, often in front of a tv-show, sometimes in my lunchbreak, and have progressed super far!
These pics are me trying it on after I'd reached the bottom of the lace in the body - I had to stop as I didn't have the smaller needle size for the ribbing, so I moved onto the sleeve
Don't worry, It won't really gape at the front like in the pic - it's still going to have a button band in the middle there!
Since I took these pictures I've actually finished one sleeve, gone back and done the ribbing around the waist, and started the second sleeve.
Hopefully it won't take too much longer to finish! But yeah, loving knitting this cardigan!!
