put 2 10k in parallel and you'll do even better
Thankfully they didn't call it the loo board.
Everyone makes mistakes: it's how you recover from them that matters.
I wish CEO's from bigger business like GMC etc read your post and watch your company closely. If they were the consumer's world would be a better place and they'd get the customer loyalty that they can't find and don't deserve.
the sparkfun employee firmware upgrade was proceeding smoothly
Nobody on staff looked forward to wearables Wednesday.
You can work out the ratings by matching the the product code in the photo with the product code table in the data sheet. Not that hard.
Over the last 24 hours, we've been watching the conversation around SparkFun. We've wanted to join the conversation sooner, but needed to make sure we had all the information in front of us so we could help find the best solution. Thank you for your patience.
Like any organization that designs and manufactures electronics, we actively work to stop lookalike products from making it to the marketplace. We do this to protect our company and the jobs of our employees. We also do so because it is a matter of safety for our customers. Our tools are used in high-energy industrial environments, where precision and safety is an absolute necessity.
I mention this because we firmly believe that we must be – and will continue to be – vigilant in protecting Fluke and our customers. One step in doing that was registering a trademark protecting the look and feel of our devices so our customers know that if it looks like a Fluke it's a Fluke.
It's important to know that once we've filed for and received trademark protection, US Customs has the responsibility to determine what to stop at the border, or what to seize. In this case, we first learned of this issue from SparkFun's blog.
We understand how troubling this is for a small company serving the needs of DIY-ers and hobbyists. Here is what we are going to do.
Earlier today we contacted SparkFun and offered to provide a shipment of genuine Fluke equipment, free of charge for them to sell on their site or donate. The value of the equipment exceeds the value of the Customs-held shipment. SparkFun can resell the Fluke gear, recouping the cost of their impounded shipment, or donate it into the Maker community.
While we will continue to enforce our trademark, we are taking this one-time action because we believe in the work of SparkFun supporting the Maker and education communities. This is important to us. We have been supporters of the Maker community for years through the donation of over half a million dollars worth of tools and employee time to organizations like First Robotics.
We look forward to continuing our support of the community, of our customers, and of all the innovators out there.
Wes Pringle President, Fluke Corporation
I bought 2 of these in 5m length. I tested them with a large lead acid battery producing 12.65V. I found the following
When individually connected the draw was the following Red: 1.6 Amps Green: 1.4 Amps Blue: 1.34 Amps
When all were connected White: 3.4 Amps. (Voltage on battery dropped to 12.4V when lit.
Not sure why there is a discrepancy, this is empirical data.
Hope this helps
Does anyone know the pinout for this inverter? Using my voltmeter I see that the two pins closest to the light Icon are at approx 160V ac. The other two appear to be around 26V ac, which seems odd to me.
Sparkfun: surface to air missiles in stock soon.

Jackie Chan-donated houses take centrestage in SUTD beam-raising ceremony
Published on Mar 11, 2014 2:49 PM
A beam-raising ceremony was held at the Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) to mark the completion of the structural frames of two houses donated by Hong Kong movie star Jackie Chan.
The event on Tuesday is the equivalent of the topping-out ceremony for modern buildings and is a ritual carried out for traditional Chinese structures. Practised by master craftsmen in China, the practice is a highlight of the construction process as it signifies the completion of the timber frame.
The ritual also has to take place on an auspicious day. It involves having a craftsman offering incense and toasting Chinese liqueur to the deities of carpentry before reciting auspicious sayings while the beam is raised to the timber frame for installation.
Both the antique houses Da Tong and Du Zhe, built side by side, will be used as events spaces for students and staff once the finishing touches are completed by the end of the year.

Read Psalm 72
The protection of those who are weak is an integral part of God's sacred design.
In Psalm 72 we find King David offering a prayerful instruction for his son Solomon, who will become the ruler of a nation. David's expression of devotion and care for his people is a foreshadowing of the righteous reign of Christ and his promise and covenant. "For he delivers the needy when they call, the poor and those who have no helper. … From oppression and violence he redeems their life.…" (Psalm 72:12-14).
What an amazing vision of an earthly kingdom and its king functioning as God desires! Although we're not accustomed to life under a king's rule, we can read Psalm 72 in light of our present reality and discern the characteristics of godly leadership. Our current government bears little resemblance to a monarchy, yet it still decides whether to save those who are weak from oppression and violence.
Instead of a kingly image, in Jesus Christ we are offered a servant expression of God's grand vision. God was made flesh in Jesus and dwelt among us, as servant, addressing the vulnerabilities of those around him—sins were forgiven, sight restored, and sickness healed (Matthew 15:30-31). Whether found in the image of king or servant, God's care for poor people is constant and abiding.
As people of God, we recognize that hunger is a serious problem in our country. Nearly 49 million Americans—including more than one in five children—live in households that struggle to put food on the table. Scripture tells us that God is concerned about weak and vulnerable people. National nutrition programs such as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, formerly called food stamps), and the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children (WIC) help safeguard the health of low-income children and families. These vital nutrition programs meet the needs of millions of American families.
As so many hungry people in our country pray about empty cupboards, grumbling stomachs, skipping meals, or finding food pantry assistance, national nutrition programs can be an answer to their prayers. God responds to those in need. These government nutrition programs protect the neediest among us, and faithful citizens must also respond and protect those vital programs.
Tell Congress to protect programs critical for hungry people, especially our children.

Hurricane Sandy Help Rejected By Union WorkersHurricane Sandy Help Rejected By Union Workers
By: Liz Hill | NBC 26 News
Published: November 02, 2012
NBC NEWS--At a time when the northeast is in desperate need of help, utility crews from Alabama are being told "thanks but no thanks."
Crews from Huntsville and Decatur Utilities headed north earlier this week, but they were told by crews in New Jersey that they can't do any work there since they're not union employees...........
Personally I find it very hard to feel sorry for people who are begging for help but are that selective about who they get it from.
Should it make a difference if electrical crews, who do this for a living, are in the Union or not in times of National Disasters?
"You cannot take any people, of any color, and exempt them from the requirements of civilization -- including work, behavioral standards, personal responsibility and all the other basic things that the clever intelligentsia disdain -- without ruinous consequences to them and to society at large.." - Thomas Sowell
We are now in an era where low-information and no-information voters are now in the majority."
Thanks to ObamaCare, my health insurance premiums dropped 30% and I now have a plan that covers routine care! Thank God for ObamaCare!
If anyone got snookered it was the NEWS ..
"I saw a story today that one of the great manufacturers in this state, Jeep — now owned by the Italians — is thinking of moving all production to China," Romney said at a rally in Defiance, Ohio.
__________________ - It dives and it jumps and it ripples like the deepest ocean.
I found MANY references to it but picked the NBC news because many of the rest were from NON News Blogs and such.
As for being short .. I have seen that manytimes before . Again .. we are talking an NNC NEWS url .. not a blog.
I doubt people got "snookered", it sounds like news outlets were lied to by primary sources, either workers or reps from one of these companies. News outlets will almost never air something like that without confirmation, but of course that confirmation assumes that whomever you're talking to isn't lying to you. If you tell me something about your company, I can corroborate with your coworker or boss or media rep from that company, but my information still assumes that whomever I speak isn't outright lying to me. Somebody had an agenda here to paint union workers out to be stupid and selfish, and they lied to push their agenda out there. It's not that shocking really. The government support structure is working really well up here in the northeast right now and conservatives just can't stand it, it goes against everything they believe in. So they have to attempt to change the narrative. Well, people are actually working together and getting things done here, and I'd invite those asshats to fark off and let it happen.

|Under African Skies Trailer (13 Notes: Paul Simon's Graceland Journey)
|UNDER AFRICAN SKIES is a really great film in which Joe Berlinger travels back to South Africa with Paul -- his first trip back in 25 years, on the occasion of the 25th anniversary of the historic Graceland album. Paul reunites with the band to give a reunion concert and that present tense thread is then used to tell the story of the turbulent birth of the album. Despite its huge success, and despite it being the first popular/successful example of fusing American and African musical styles, it was initially met with tremendous political crossfire, as Paul was accused of breaking the UN cultural boycott of South Africa designed to end the Apartheid regime. Paul revisits these ghosts as the musical journey is explored. The film will feature interviews with Oprah Winfrey, Paul McCartney, Harry Belafonte, David Byrne, Philip Glass, Lorne Michaels, Whoopi Goldberg, Quincy Jones, and Steve Van Zandt.

This pleading comes from a claim I made against the City of Yakima and the City Council for violating Washington State's Open Public Meetings act by making a decision of public importance after conferring behind closed doors in order to reach a consensus in favor of adopting a new budgeting system. Although the subject is rather technical, its impact on the average person is is still being felt to this day. My chief complaint was that the City's actions robbed its citizens of their right to witness a debate on the desired change and to participate in the process. I won the case, but the City Council voted in favor of the change two weeks later, this time following proper procedures.

Two people remain in hospital following a school bus crash on
the East Coast yesterday.
Twelve teenagers and three others were injured when the bus
crashed into a ditch on Whareata Rd, State Highway 2, south
of Gisborne, about 3.30pm.
The bus, which had up to 40 people on board, was carrying
schoolgirls from Turakina Maori Girls' College in Marton on
their way to a kapa haka competition.
A St John Ambulance spokesman said no one was trapped in the
crash, but 15 people were taken to Gisborne Hospital with
minor to moderate injuries.
Tairawhiti District Health Board's director of nursing Sonia
Gamblen told TVNZ's Breakfast show that by 10pm one person
remained in hospital and the others were discharged.
"During the night, one more student attended the ED
(Emergency Department) and was admitted.
"One has a fracture and one is under observation -- she just
got a bit unwell in the night and came up to the ED."
A school spokeswoman said the principal, Terehia Channings,
was with the students at the time.
Police said no information was available about what caused
the crash.
The National Secondary Schools Kapa Haka 2014 festival starts
today and ends Friday with 42 teams across 14 regions

From the Publisher
"In The Vanishing Physician-Scientist?, Dr. Andrew I. Schafer makes the case that truly effective translational research can go from bench to bedside and back again in dynamic fashion; he describes a view of the future in which physician-scientists will be members of research teams. This book does an excellent job of placing physician-scientists in historical context and highlighting the fact that the problem of the endangered physician-scientist is not a new one. The Vanishing Physician-Scientist? outlines a long-term problem that is likely to get worse, and, most important, provides a number of possible solutions.Given the current constraints—on NIH-funded research and an understandable retrenchment for funding by industry and foundations—its descriptions of strategies that have been successful in the past and are likely to be successful in the future are more valuable than ever."—Glenn Bubley, MD, Beth Israel Deaconess Hospital and Harvard Medical School

The most common, she wrote, include procuring work through RFPs or tenders that specify acceptable arrangements; imposing billing hour limits and rewarding firms for crafting alternative fee structures; reducing the total number of outside providers or sticking to a preferred outside counsel list; and opting for value-based fees, which are based on the type of work performed and the value it has to the client, rather than a strict hourly measure.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The Minnesota Timberwolves have accomplished their summer mission to bring better 3-point shooters and more positional balance to the roster.
Timberwolves finalize contracts Budinger, Brewer
Now the questions left for this team to answer are whether it can successfully guard anyone and how to divide playing time among a suddenly deep, if healthy, group.
The Timberwolves finalized contracts on Friday with a pair of small forwards whose skills were central to their plan, Chase Budinger and Corey Brewer, and another, first-round pick Shabazz Muhammad, whose playing-time prospect appears dim for this season after a flurry of post-draft moves.
Budinger agreed to terms last week on a three-year, $16 million contract. Brewer agreed to a three-year, $15 million deal on Wednesday. The Wolves had to maneuver through the league's complicated salary cap rules before they could actually sign them, which led to the trade of guard Luke Ridnour to Milwaukee.
Brewer, of course, was the seventh overall pick in the 2007 draft by the Wolves, but he didn't hit his stride until after he left. Last season with Denver, he averaged 12.1 points in 24.4 minutes per game. Shooting is not his forte, but the Wolves badly needed a reliable defender on the wing, and his athletic ability to run the fast break with fancy-passing point guard Ricky Rubio was what cemented him as the right fit to replace the departed Andrei Kirilenko.
"It's always different when you come in with the expectations of a top-10 pick and you're counted on to carry a team. He's not going to have to carry this team," President of Basketball Operations Flip Saunders said.
With Budinger and another veteran acquisition, shooting guard Kevin Martin, Brewer is probably bound for an energy-off-the-bench role. With him, Derrick Williams and the rookie Muhammad, finding time for everyone will be tricky. Williams played a lot of power forward when star Kevin Love was hurt, but with Love back and Dante Cunningham and Ronny Turiaf behind him, that's a crowded position, too.
Saunders stopped short of declaring this the deepest team in the franchise's woebegone history, but he said the group might be more versatile than the 2003-04 squad he coached with Kevin Garnett, Sam Cassell and Latrell Sprewell that reached the Western Conference finals. That's the only year out of 24 that the Wolves have advanced past the first round of the playoffs.

Isn't eviscerates a great word?
Paul Krugman today literally disembowels Paul Ryan's economic philosophy, demonstrating how it derives from absolutely nutty ideas contained in the novels of Ayn Rand that are either a) exceptionally radical, b) completely disproved by real economic events or c) both.
First, Krugman explains that Ryan's desire to shift wealth from the poor to the richest, by shredding the safety net and using the money to lower the taxes paid by the 1%, is due to his "contempt for moochers," and his adoration of those who earn great wealth. Of course he disguises his contempt by saying that these measures will help poor people, and that's what he wants. See, he's concerned that they don't get too lazy or anything like that while they live on the high life of food stamps. Ryan's ideas on this come straight from Rand.
Many of you all have heard that before, so let me move on to the next section, where Krugman brings up something a bit less well known, but far more bizarre in Ryan/Rand's economic fictional world. Apparently, Ryan's "thinking" on monetary policy derives not from any study of economic history and data, but from the novel he read as a teenager (insert the quote about orcs here), "Atlas Shrugged." I'll let Dr. Krugman speak for himself:
Well, it's right there in [the aforementioned] 2005 speech to the Atlas Society, in which he declared that he always goes back to "Francisco d'Anconia's speech on money" when thinking about monetary policy. Who? Never mind. That speech (which clocks in at a mere 23 paragraphs) is a case of hard-money obsession gone ballistic. Not only does the character in question, a Galt sidekick, call for a return to the gold standard, he denounces the notion of paper money and demands a return to gold coins.Krugman then reminds us that we've been using paper money in the United States as our primary form of currency for a very, very long time. Two hundred years in fact. He makes the point that Ryan seems to want to bring us back to the good old days, in terms of economic thinking, of the eighteenth century.
Then Krugman delivers the coup de grâce:
Does any of this matter? Well, if the Republican ticket wins, Mr. Ryan will surely be an influential force in the next administration — and bear in mind, too, that he would, as the cliché goes, be a heartbeat away from the presidency. So it should worry us that Mr. Ryan holds monetary views that would, if put into practice, go a long way toward recreating the Great Depression.These are really good questions, no?
And, beyond that, consider the fact that Mr. Ryan is considered the modern G.O.P.'s big thinker. What does it say about the party when its intellectual leader evidently gets his ideas largely from deeply unrealistic fantasy novels?

Weight for it: Dubai rewards losers with gold
DUBAI — Shedding weight in Dubai is being rewarded in gold under a new initiative by the municipality of the Gulf emirate aimed at fighting obesity, local newspapers reported on Wednesday.
"Your Weight in Gold" is the title of a campaign promising one gram of gold for every kilo shed, provided a minimum of two kilos (4.6 pounds) of weight are lost by August 16.
The campaign coincides with the Muslim fasting month of Ramadan, which ends before mid-August.
During Ramadan, the faithful refrain from eating, drinking and smoking between dawn and sunset.
But many tend to tuck in heartily after dark, despite warnings that overindulgence can be bad for the health.
The three campaign-winning losers will each receive a gold coin worth 20,000 dirhams ($5,449) through a lucky draw. Other weight losers will share gold coins worth 200,000 dirhams.
Participants will be required to use scales installed in public parks, will receive guidance from dieticians and will have to pledge not to use unhealthy methods to lose the weight.
Many Gulf countries are struggling to reduce the level of obesity among their populations.

Obviously, it can not be perfectly aligned for the entire throw, but it was way off causing the cable to rub significantly on the end of the adjustment threads. With some vice and large crescent-wrench work, I bent the bracket so the cable at least pointed at the lever. Made a HUGE difference. Probably 50% lighter at the clutch lever and much smoother; can't feel that grinding any longer.
Definitely makes a difference - problem can start with where the actuating arm is adjusted for the start of the pull but this cannot be adjusted without dropping the oil and removing the side cover and adjusting the nut on the rod. The plate can be tweaked for better alignment and you can also look at the ferule at the hand lever and slop there - can be taken up quite simply with a small strip of shimstock wound round the tip of the cable which is a thinner OD than the lever ferule (some have actually turned an additional sleeve piece but not really necessary - see on Cafe Husky)

LIMA — The Swedish pop group ABBA dominated the charts in the late 1970s and early 1980s with songs like "Dancing Queen" and "Take a Chance On Me." Now audiences at Veterans Memorial Civic Center can enjoy this timeless music today in the hit musical "Mamma Mia!"
This show has been seen by more than 54 million people worldwide and has grossed over $2 billion at the box office.
"When you look at the season, you look at a wide variety of show types, and usually there is one big headliner, and this is our Broadway season's headliner," Civic Center CEO Cynthia Wood said.
Set against the backdrop of a beautiful Greek island, the musical chronicles a woman's attempt to find her biological father, integrating the familiar music of ABBA througout. This successful formula for a musical has now been seen in over 400 major cities worldwide since it first opened in London in 1999, faster than any other musical in history. This production is part of the North American tour, featuring 260 performances nationwide.
According to Wood, a wide variety of patrons have purchased tickets to this show.
"We have a lot of groups coming in," she said. "All ages are coming in to buy. There are people coming for a ladies night out or moms bringing daughters."
Wood also noted that tickets are selling out very fast and that anyone wishing to get a last-minute ticket will want to act quickly.
"We're getting down to the wire," she said. "We have 89 tickets available as of Wednesday."

Gold v. New York Life Insurance Co., No. 12-CV-2344 (2d Cir. Sept. 18, 2013) (Parker, J.): The plaintiff brought suit on behalf of himself and others alleging that he was improperly classified as exempt from the New York Labor Law (NYLL) and that his employer made improper deductions from his wages. Due to the dates of his employment and the NYLL's longer statute of limitations, the plaintiff sued under the NYLL but not the Fair Labor Standards Act, and he therefore predicated federal jurisdiction under the Class Action Fairness Act (CAFA). Following discovery on the plaintiff's individual claims, the district court dismissed his overtime claim, leaving only the improper wage deduction claim to go forward to class discovery. At that point, nearly three years after the case was commenced, the employer moved to dismiss because it discovered that more than two-thirds of the putative class members were New York citizens in violation of CAFA's home state exception. The district court agreed and dismissed the remaining wage deduction claim. On appeal, the Second Circuit held that, under an abuse of discretion standard, dismissal was proper because the district court was in a better position to judge whether the delay was excusable. In doing so, the court cautioned that "there are numerous instances where the home state exception was raised much more promptly than it was in this case, and without full blown class discovery."
In addition, the Second Circuit appeared to resolve an open question—whether the 2011 amendment to the NYLL, which raised liquidated damages from 25 percent to 100 percent, applies retroactively. Following the majority of federal district courts that have considered this question, the Second Circuit held that the amendment did not contain any "clear expression of retroactivity" and therefore 100 percent liquidated damages do not apply retroactively pre-2011. Given isolated case law to the contrary, Gold provides needed clarity on this important damages issue. The decision also stands as a reminder that employers faced with federal cases predicated upon CAFA should act promptly to determine whether the putative class meets the home state exception is a basis for dismissal.

Landis case question: Whistle-blower or snitch?
There's a difference between being a snitch and being a witness, experts say. It's about motivation. Are you telling on somebody only for selfish reasons? Then you're a snitch. Or are you telling on somebody to help others and help serve justice? Then you're a witness or a whistle-blower. Sometimes motivations are complex and people fit into both categories. What about the following sports figures — are they snitches or whistle-blowers?
Jose Canseco: Baseball slugger reveals steroid use, names names in tell-all book.
Ken Caminiti: Former Padre estimated in Sports Illustrated in 2002 that half of baseball players used steroids.

Kobe Bryant: Lakers star told police in 2003 rape case that teammate Shaquille O'Neal "would pay his women not to say anything."
Jan Gangelhoff: University of Minnesota academic counselor provided newspaper with evidence of athletes' academic cheating.
David Ohton: SDSU strength coach aided university audit and provided details of what he considered to be waste and wrongdoing.
Jim Bouton: His 1970 baseball book, "Ball Four," tells what really goes on in baseball, reveals Mickey Mantle's heavy drinking.
Chargers linebacker Shaun Phillips doesn't like tattletales.
Soon after he heard that cyclist Floyd Landis had accused Lance Armstrong of doping, Phillips sent a message to his followers on Twitter.
"So we have another snitch," Phillips' message said. "Tour De France winner Landis finally admitted to using PED (performance-enhancing drugs). Since he got caught he said Lance Armstrong used them also. Snitches get stitches."
Snitches get stitches.
It's the mantra of many youth these days who despise those who "rat out" the misdeeds of colleagues for personal gain.
But where would sports be without them? And what distinguishes a snitch from a well-intentioned whistle-blower?
Both questions are important to consider, experts say, because without informants, we might not know about steroids in baseball, the Watergate conspiracy or many crimes on the street. On the other hand, telling on others can go too far, especially when it's for purely selfish reasons. Some say it already has gone too far, causing many to misunderstand the difference between "snitches" and legitimate whistle-blowers. The anti-snitching backlash that's formed as a result can intimidate whistle-blowers into keeping important information secret.
"We've lost the great line in our minds between people who come forward to make a sport or a community better and criminals who do it for leniency or self-serving ways," said Alexandra Natapoff, a "snitching" expert and law professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles. "This is a huge loss for society. We need people to come forward in communities and schools. But the government, in giving criminals leniency in exchange for information, has tainted the way we see citizen witnesses."
Is Landis a snitch or a whistle-blower? What about former baseball sluggers Jose Canseco and Ken Caminiti?
Sports has a long list of snitches/whistle-blowers.
BALCO founder Victor Conte gave federal agents the names of dozens of athletes he was providing with designer steroids. Trainer Brian McNamee told investigators he injected Roger Clemens with steroids.

This winery celebrates its locale's rich history—the King of Spain himself once owned this land, and the tasting room occupies a former guest ranch inn—but fully embraces the area's wine-making present. The Rhône varietals Marsanne, Mourvèdre, Roussanne, Syrah, and Viognier are the specialty.

An Indian court found a teenager guilty of taking part in the fatal gang-rape of a student in New Delhi, a crime that sparked revulsion and angry protests in the country. The juveniles' court sentenced the teenager to three years in a correctional facility after handing down the first and long-delayed verdict over the brutal assault on the student on a moving bus last December.

She and her colleagues were continuing to follow the children in the study.
"We are not in a position to say conclusively why some children develop asthma, or to even suggest precautionary measures to help babies born in the fall and winter," study senior author Dr. Ira Tager, professor of epidemiology, said in the news release. "We already know that family history is a major risk factor for developing asthma, but the role environmental factors play is still being fleshed out. What this study does is provide valuable clues about airborne allergens that are worth exploring further."
More information
The American Lung Association has more about childhood asthma.

Located on the eastern border of Madison County, the towns of Madison and Hamilton also contain villages of the same names. Settlement began around 1794, and Madison was formed in 1807 from a portion of the town of Hamilton.
The well-known Landmark Tavern, designed by James Coolidge around 1849, is located in Bouckville, in the middle of Madison. Coolidge also brought hops to the area, establishing it as the largest hop producer in the United States. The creation of the Cherry Valley Turnpike (now Route 20) and the Chenango Canal in the mid-1800s attracted both residents and industries, including Samuel Mott, creator of the famous Mott's Apple Sauce, who moved to Bouckville in 1868 where he established Mott's Cider Company in 1869; he later moved his home to Hamilton.
Development continued into the 1900s as the New York, Ontario & Western Railroad ran through both towns, bringing visitors from nearby Syracuse and Utica. Now home to Colgate University, the quaint towns and rural communities in the area continue to welcome residents and visitors alike.
Highlights of Madison and Hamilton:
• The majority of the images in the book were donated from private collections of local residents.
• Well-known authors Jim Ford and John Taibi made contributions to the book.
• Many interesting people come from this area. Chapter five highlights many such as The Washburn family; Grove Hinman; Captain Waterman with his buffalo; to name a few.
Mishell Kyle Forward-Magnusson is a lifelong area resident with family ties to much of the historical information outlined in this book. She is the president of the Madison County Historical Society and member of other local historical groups.

New York Theatre Workshop, the venerable downtown theater company that launched Broadway sensation Rent, has announced plans to create a new concert series that revives Off-Broadway musicals. Similar to the popular City Center series Encores!, which features lesser-known Broadway musicals of the past, the NYTW concerts would be minimally-staged productions that bring older Off-Broadway — and probably Off-Off Broadway and regional — shows to new audiences.
The following two tabs change content below.

Impressive! (on dry days)
Bright, Lots of Fun, Much Haunt, So Ghost, Such Tall, Unique
Absorbent, Poor Design
Was this a gift?:
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
An amazing, towering ghost! Well built in all ways except one. Ghost body is made of synthetics and does not absorb water, but the arm gauze is wildly absorbent. It will not stand up in the rain at all as the arms become much too heavy. On a dry night it is the best thing on the block.

Product DescriptionThompson Center's master gunmakers teamed up with limbsaver to create the flextech stock system that was designed to absorb shock and reduce harmful recoil and vibration. It incorporates four synthetic recoil absorbing arches that operate similar to a leaf spring to create a crush zone and allow the stock to compress during the recoil process. The Pro Hunter rifle features a swing hammer safety that allows for easy access to the hammer spur, the speed breech quick release breech plug that can be easily removed by rotating it only 90 degrees, the Pro Hunter extractor that can be rotated left or right for easy access to the speed breech, the quick load accurizor which allows the hunter to quickly load their rifle by incorporating a false muzzle design, and the TC power rod to allow for a more uniform load by applying the same seating pressure shot after shot.

Comments about Thompson/Center Arms Thompson/Center® Encore® Pro Hunter™ Centerfire Rifle:
Use of this rifle in 30-06 is a good choice for hunting big game and even medium size game. The rifle is accurate with different manufacturers of ammo and is lighter than standard multi-round rifles. The only drawback would be the single shot capacity but then if equipped with extra round holder, it might not be a drawback for a skilled hunter
