"It will be the right of the new government not to recognise as legitimate the decisions of the UPA goernment taken in the 10 days left of the 10-year unsuccessful government," said BJP senior leader Arun Jaitley, back from his Amritsar electoral battle, here on Friday.
He pointed to the appointment of information commissioners, and filling up the quorum for the Lokpal search panel, and the attempt to find a judge for the Snoopgate commission. "The BJP is strongly opposed to these moves. It is the responsibility of the bureaucrats to advise the government not to take decisions which have a political bearing," he said.
Reviewing the seven-phases of the election that got over and looking forward to the remaining two, due on May 7 and 12, he said the election was a "single horse race" where the front-runner turning around could not spot the second."
He dismissed the Third Front as a "failed idea" and as a rag-tag coalition which will be a "charter for chaos." There is no change in campaign strategy, but the party has produced new television spots showing Narendra Modi declaring on the day he filed nomination in Varanasi that "he (Modi) was not sent by anyone to Varanasi nor did he come on his own, but it was the call of the Ganga that brought him." The background commentary in the television spot also used the word, "Ganga-Jumni tehzeeb", a favourite word of the liberals and secularists, as the essence of the place.
BJP soruces later elaborated on Jaitley's comment of a "one-horse race." They said that if BJP were to get 220 seats and the Congress lingered at 75 or 80, the distance between the two is so vast that it remains an unbridgeable gulf, and this is what amounts to a single-horse race.
The BJP is also going to make a big effort in party candidate Smriti Irani's campaign because the party believes that the Rahul Gandhi campaign has lost focus because his team was unnerved. The feeling in the BJP is that if the Congress had stuck to the theme of Rahul Gandhi as a leader, then they could have hoped for success. But now the statements coming from the Congress camp are stray and therefore the campaign has gone astray. It believes that with a determined push there is a possibility of Irani pulling off a victory.

I believe you'll find they're all soldered LED's.
There are people who provide the conversion service but probably not cheap.

if your handy with a soldering iron you could do it, as stoney said, with LED's, there are services on ebay, mainly for the instrument cluster to get this done, but I recall the price being approximately £100.00 give or take, as you have to send your cluster to them, then they play and send it back.
Posted 10 February 2012 - 09:07 PM
I did all the conversions myself, although I noticed yours is a mk1 Focus.

I think it has something to do with the throttle side. When the bike warms up with the heaters on, they're effin' hot when I get on.
Is it a loop of wire or a slider that allows the throttle movement? I'm thinking there is a bad connection there.
Does anyone know if they are wired in series or parallel? What should the current and voltages be?
On my snowmobile, the ecu controls the heater output. Is that true on the F8?
I have the same issue.. and my battery died shortly after. I think the issue is related?

A cold-blooded kidnapper has been playing a twisted game with a terrified Minnesota town. Now a respected member of the community stands accused of a startling act of evil. But when a second boy disappears, a frightened public demands to know: Have the police caught the wrong man? Is the nightmare continuing...or just beginning?
Prosecutor Ellen North believes she's building a case against a guilty man - and that he has an accomplice in the shadows. As she prepares for the trial of her career, Ellen suddenly finds herself swept into a cruel contest of twisted wits, a dark game of life and death...with an evil mind as guilty as sin.

"Accomplished and scary." (Cosmopolitan)
"A page-turner." (Chicago Tribune)
"Great listen, but something is missing..."
Definitely some suspenseful material
Yes, Solid!
Make sure you listen to Night Sins first! Great characters and great build up for the end, once the mystery is revealed there is not enough details about all that the "bad guys" did. I'm not one to rewrite an authors book but this ones ending did let me down a bit. still highly recommend it! But I feel like there is a lot left unresolved with these great characters.
"Reading this was like pulling teeth"
This particular story was a good idea but so very poorly executed. Repetitive phrases, way too much detail on unimportant items. Sexual harassment written as if it were flirting dialogue.
I have enjoyed Tami Hoag books before, but now I'm not sure if I will even attempt another Hoag book.
"Guilty as sin"
Awful story, hard to follow characters. Borring
Fuzzy nation
O.K. I guess
not that I could see
May be i just don't like Tami Hoag's style.
"Beware, this is a continuation of another book."
Yes, I think Tami Hoag is a good author.
This one isn't as great as others.
The performance was ok.
The list of characters was really long, and I had to write them down in a notebook to keep track. I don't know why so many characters were needed for the story.
"Good book, disappointing narration."
Very hard to figure out characters at times. Would have been better with other voices for the characters. Overall a good story though.
"Awesome story"
Tami does an excellent job of writing this story - it could go on ... But sadly doesn't (maybe someday there will be a book 3) 😀. Once again she does not disappoint.
"An Excellent Story"
I really enjoyed this story. It is a continuation. It's best that you listen to "Night Sins" first, because this audiobook is the second part of the story. I really like Tami Hoag's books, lots of twists & turns.

Kansas Football November 8 vs. Iowa State
Kansas Football is back in town this Saturday as the Jayhawks look to beat up on a comparable Big 12 opponent in Iowa State. The Jayhawks have not won a game against a conference foe in nearly a year and a win Saturday would only be Kansas' second win in the Big 12 conference in almost four years. The game's implications are not much to consider as the winner is likely to only amount to become the second-worst team in the conference by the end of the season. While the game doesn't mean much for the standings the matchup on Saturday could make or break interim head coach Clint Bowen as he looks to lock…

Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez admits skipper Steven Gerrard was upset with being replaced by Lucas Leiva in the second-half of Saturday's 2-1 win at Everton.
"The idea was clear," said Benitez. "We had a player with passion when we needed to pass and control the ball. Stevie was disappointed with the decision and he wanted to play on. I tried to talk to him but it would be cleverer to analyse the reasons for the decision with him later.
"Steven was upset and I could see that he did not want to talk to me, but when we have all calmed down he will know that I have to put the club first."
Benitez also took another swipe at Everton, adding: "They were playing long ball all the time. We were trying to pass it."

HoopsHype Steve Koonin rumors
Steve Koonin: Congratulations to @Kyle Korver on his first #AllStar selection. Four @Atlanta Hawks All-Stars & EC Coaches is an unbelievable honor for our city Twitter @SteveKoonin
Budenholzer and assistant general manager Wes Wilcox run basketball operations while Ferry's future with the organization remains uncertain until the team is eventually sold. Forbes recently valued the worth of the franchise as $825 million. Koonin said there is no shortage of interested buyers and the current success "is good for the value. It's a winning organization now." Washington Post
The Atlanta Hawks have hired Nzinga Shaw as the team's first chief diversity and inclusion officer. The Hawks announced Thursday Shaw will guide Hawks executives "so that they can engender inclusivity in every facet of the business." She will report directly to Hawks chief executive officer Steve Koonin. USA Today Sports
The Atlanta Hawks and iHeartMedia are collaborating to broadcast eight Hawks games on local Spanish language station El PatrÓn 105.3 FM this season, it was announced today. The ground-breaking news marks the first time Hawks contests will be aired completely in Spanish by an Atlanta radio outlet. "We are thrilled to enter a partnership with iHeartMedia and El PatrÓn 105.3," said Hawks CEO Steve Koonin. "This collaboration presents exciting new opportunities for us to further engage the diverse, multicultural population of our great city. Broadcasting our games in Spanish is important for our organization as we continue to build bridges through basketball and connect with our community." NBA.com
Hawks legend Dominique Wilkins has been named as special advisor to CEO Steve Koonin, the team announced Monday. He was signed to a long-term contract and will continue in his role as Vice President of Basketball. The Hawks also officially announced that a statue of Wilkins will be erected at Philips Arena. The news was previously revealed during a Atlanta mayor Kasim Reed press conference earlier this month. "There is no player more deserving of such an honor than Dominique for his continued commitment to the Hawks and the City of Atlanta," Koonin said in a statement. "Beyond his amazing play on the court during his Hall-of-Fame career, he has been an ambassador for this franchise and the city for three decades. For all he has accomplished and continues to do for the Hawks franchise and the City of Atlanta, we are proud to bestow this permanent recognition of his legacy." Atlanta Journal-Constitution
The Atlanta Hawks and Philips Arena today announced plans to celebrate the 15th anniversary of Philips Arena and will construct a larger-than-life-size statue of Hawks' legend Dominique Wilkins. The statue, which is to be unveiled at a special ceremony at Philips Arena on March 5, 2015, will be a symbol of the Hawks' legend's success as a player both on and off the court. Details of the statue and the ceremony will be released at a later date. Additionally, the Hawks have named Wilkins as Special Advisor to CEO Steve Koonin and signed the legend to a new long-term partnership. He will also continue in his role as Vice President of Basketball. CBSSports.com

Magic Johnson: Advice to Hawks CEO Steve Koonin: No one knows more about basketball and loved by the Atlanta community than Dominique Wilkins. Twitter @MagicJohnson
The Atlanta Hawks cancelled a scheduled meeting between their CEO and city civil rights leaders Wednesday, prompting one of the group's leaders to say his community was greatly offended. The Rev. Markel Hutchins said the meeting with CEO Steve Koonin was called off "at the last minute." He later said he received a call from Hawks spokesman Garin Narain on Tuesday night asking the appointment be postponed. Detroit Free Press
Before Ferry met with CEO Steve Koonin on Friday to finalize a leave of absence that most inside the organization believe will eventually become permanent, Ferry spent the morning with members of the African-American clergy in Atlanta, a source told Yahoo Sports. He's trying here. And he'll keep trying too. He's humiliated. He's hurting. For the first time in his life, Ferry's humbled. Yahoo! Sports
Marc J. Spears: Hawks CEO Steve Koonin announces that GM Danny Ferry requested & was approved for an indefinite leave of absence, effective immediately. Twitter @SpearsNBAYahoo
Rev. Markel Hutchins: I have hypothesized, and I have no concrete proof, but there's a strong inclination deep within me that suggests the reason that the meeting with civil rights leaders and the Atlanta Hawks was called off yesterday has everything to do with the league having put the kibosh on the meeting. I don't think it's a coincidence that NBA commissioner Adam Silver met with Hawks leadership on Tuesday after I spoke Monday night with Steve Koonin, the CEO of the Hawks. On Tuesday night, I get a call trying to suggest that they want to cancel the meeting with us. I don't think there's any coincidence. The NBA is apparently trying to cover this culture, and we have to expose it in order for justice to really prevail for the players. HawksHoop.com

Markel Hutchins announced Wednesday's meeting was called off "at the last minute." He later said he received a call from Hawks spokesman Garin Narain on Tuesday night asking that it be postponed. Hutchins said he needed to hear that request directly from Koonin. USA Today Sports
Hawks CEO Steve Koonin told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Ferry had received an undisclosed punishment, but would remain as GM. The disparaging racial reference to Deng triggered at least one team owner on the call to pursue an independent investigation into how the organization operated in regard to race. The search uncovered the 2012 email that Levenson sent to Ferry and two minority owners that ultimately led to Levenson's decision, under pressure, to sell his stake in the Hawks. Yahoo! Sports
In an exclusive interview with the Atlanta Journal-Constitution Sunday night, Koonin said while it has not been his focus immediately following the revelation about Levenson there will be no shortage of potential buyers for his shares in the team. "I had over seven phone calls directly today from multi-billionaires," Koonin said. "It blew my mind some of the people who wrote me today." Atlanta Journal-Constitution

Summer was just beginning when I made my first trip to Louis's place. The pale yellow walls and minimalist decor had little in common with the dark-wooded trenchermen's hangouts of my Gallic dreams. Yet somehow the easy informality of the room, the warm welcome, and the way the wine bottle was left out on the table even if you'd only ordered a single glass evoked the less harried era of two-hour lunches spent in animated conversation and midnight dinners near Les Halles. Perhaps it was the food--classic bistro or American nouvelle, the taste of the ingredients glistening through with laserlike intensity. My bone-in chicken salad ($19.95; since replaced, I'm told, with a boneless variant) was crisp-skinned and moist-fleshed enough to make me wish I'd ordered the roast fowl entrée to have more bones to suck on. My friend's three soft-shell crab main ($24.95) replayed the same textural melodies with the added sea tang of the crustacean. The tabletop bottle, an inspired combination of conviviality and marketing, worked its wiles as we poured seconds to toast a kitchen that lets food be food. I was hooked.
Neighboring boutiques were featuring fall duds by the time I got to return. The menu, though, still spotlighted summer delights like the massive wedges of August-ripe beefsteak tomato that combined with teensy haricots verts, a pile of mesclun, and flaky medallions of salmon as the salad of the day ($19.95). The roasted mushroom and garlic appetizer that preceded it ($12.50), a meaty portobello combined with the sweet unctuousness of allium, was tasty, but blown away by the salad entrée. My special appetizer was a tomato lover's bliss--thick slices drizzled with a mildly tart dressing that let the sun-ripened sweetness of the fruit shine through. I indulged my carnivorous tendencies and scarfed down a classic burger on a soft roll adorned with a hunk of more ripe tomato and a slice of red onion that recalled the barbecues of my youth ($15.95). The accompanying mound of frites added an appropriately French touch. As we shared a wedge of diabolically rich fallen chocolate soufflé cake, we poured yet another glass from that bottle that remained tantalizingly within reach and gave a new twist to the words to the old hymn agreeing that in matters gastronomic, it's a gift to be simple.

Gav old boy ,it will be taken away. At 4-6 C change the simple fact is : there's a good chance of catastrophic wars in the decades to come as diminishing resources are fought over. Maybe you will survive (you're male and living in a 1st world country so that's a start) . The way of life you describe is most likely going to go down the gurgler, along with most of the current biosphere and the human population will be a hell of a lot smaller if not eventually extinct. The planet will go on as it always has after massive changes and in millions of years time there'll be a whole new range of species adapted to the heat or whatever the climate stabilises to. I really feel for the scientists ...they must feel so damned depressed at the lack of action.

We have been coming to Wildwood for 30 years and this has been the nicest place we have stayed at. You have done a fantastic job decorating your condo.

Seasonal notes
popular .
A FEW days ago I walked into a store looking for some lengua de gato. I left half an hour later with four bags of assorted pastries and candies. Stocking up on holiday must-haves, especially upon seeing them on display, was definitely a factor in the large impulse purchase. However, scent was another factor that couldn't be ignored.
Several studies have shown that scent can play a key role in forming memories. For example, many people associate the foods commonly served at their family gatherings with particular events. Another study published earlier this month demonstrated that mice can use scent to identify locations where they've encountered both possible mates and possible rivals for their affection. However, a third study from the Journal of Retailing seems more appropriate to the holiday season as it highlights the role of scent in influencing sales.
In one of their experiments, Swiss and American researchers studied the shopping habits of people walking into a particular store throughout which several different fruit-based scents had been diffused. During one set period, for example, shoppers walked into a room that smelled of either oranges or lemons. Another time, the scent was more complex, combining multiple ingredients. There was also a period when no scent was diffused throughout the store.
The team found that shoppers spent more money at the store during the period when the simple scent permeated the atmosphere, compared to the amounts shoppers spent when there was no scent or when the more complex scent was used.
"The current work moves beyond conclusions from earlier research," they wrote, "suggesting that not just any pleasant, congruent scent will positively impact customer behavior; scent simplicity (or complexity) should also be considered."
Baked goods popular
Setting aside the question of whether or not the scent of butter and sugar creamed together should be considered simple or complex, baked goods are undeniably popular during the holidays. In such a season when overindulgence is common, one reminder often heard is to celebrate in moderation.
To help reinforce this message, British biostatistician David Spiegelhalter recently suggested thinking of the effects of one's lifestyle in terms of the loss or gain of what he calls a "microlife," defined as "a half hour of adult life expectancy … as it is loosely equivalent to one millionth of life after 35." His article appeared in the Dec. 17 issue of the British Medical Journal.
Spiegelhalter noted that while many people might be aware of the health effects of their decisions, they may not be concerned because the impacts may not be felt for several years. Thinking in terms of half-hour increments, however, might change that perspective.
"Averaged over a lifetime habit," he wrote, "a microlife can be 'lost' from smoking two cigarettes, being 5 kg overweight, having the second and third alcoholic drink of the day, watching two hours of television, or eating a burger. On the other hand microlives can be 'gained' by drinking coffee, eating fruit and vegetables, exercising, and taking statins."

Mangold's debut chronicles the small-town inertia of a painfully shy, overweight short-order cook (Vince) and his love for a soul-searching waitress (Tyler). The performances, especially by Vince, are wrenching and true, though the pace plods a bit to emphasize the characters' slow-as-molasses lives.

Reykjavik, Iceland
My Rating
We were met at the airport and quickly got on our way into Reykjavik. The journey was about 1hour due to the time of day and the traffic. Much quicker and more comfortable than the bus and cheaper than waiting around to get a taxi at the airport.
Reykjavik, Iceland
My Rating
Driver on time. Comfortable journey. The car driver chatted about the island and pointed out points of interest. Only 40minutes as roads were clear. Took all the hassle out of getting to the airport. A lot quicker than buses that pick up at various hotels in your own comfort.
Reykjavik, Iceland
My Rating
Unfortunately this tour relies on the weather. The night we were supposed to go it was cancelled, but we were told we would go the next evening. The tour guide was very informative of the history and myths of the northern lights as well as the island. The sky was clear but we did not see the lights. The tour company extends your ticket for up to two years until you actually get a sighting. Disappointed but another opportunity to go to Iceland again as we were only on a quick two day visit.
Waikiki, Oahu
My Rating
Excellent tour. The guide was very informative , he knew his stuff but also told us some amusing stories, to lighten what is quite a sobering experience. Would definitely recommend this tour.
Las Vegas, Nevada
My Rating
Fantastic experience. The pilot was excellent, telling us what to look out for. Did not mind photos being taken, even when taking off and landing. Also gave us some tips on the rest of the tour.
Skywalk was awesome, just a shame you can't take your own photos as the photography was rushed and not that great.

I have no idea what dzenpro is talking about. I think he's just being a dick.
Everything about this girl is adorable. The lines in her hair make it look really poofy. Her facial expression is just Kawaii. Her eyes are breath taking. Her bod is curved, which is always nice. And just look at her tail,(of course you see it) its so big and fluffy! Even that butterfly is nicely drawn. I'm looking toward to seeing more of your art.

Well, where do I begin..?
First: I'm not trying to insult you or your work. Second: I'm sorry for my bad English, it is not my native language. Now, the actual review..
The whole thing feels lazy. The only good, or some what "well done" thing is head (or the top part of it). The face is a mess. Her head is turned to a side a little bit, but her eyes are drawn like if she was looking straight into the "camera", or the viewer. The left eyebraw (left for her, and right for the viewer) is not at it's place. Ears are NOT CONNECTED to the head. It looks horrible. As if the hair and ears were from a different picture! Either her head is incredibly long, or her ears are not connected to it. Espacially left one (for the viewer): it looks like it fell off.
You have a problem with her pose. Her shoulders and hands are turned to the viewer, and her body is turend to the side. The right hand's fingers are realy-realy bad (look for hand references - hands and faces are hard to draw, if you are not skilled in it).
Everything else is just wrong, and it's too difficult for me to explain why, sorry. Try look for references (anatomy, poses, clothes and so on).
I'm not sure if this was helpfull or not, hope it was.
p.s. Hope you'll see your own mistakes, and will not be blinded by perfect reviwes here. This picture is poorly drawn, and there is much you can improve. Do not give up, however, mastery comes with patience.

Chittenden County Transportation Authority bus drivers Rob Slingerland and Donna Bartsch talk with the Burlington Free Press editorial board on Tuesday March 18, 2014. / EMILY McMANAMY/FREE PRESS
CCTA drivers and their supporters (for a total of six participants) march in a picket line Tuesday morning at Church and Cherry streets in Burlington.
As a bus drivers strike rolls on, hope for a resolution, however faint emerged Tuesday when union members of the Chittenden County Transportation Authority announced they had a proposal ready for management to review.
Drivers are ready to sit down for more discussion with the authoritys management, Matt McGrath of the Vermont Workers Center said.
But when Teamsters Local 597 members offered to schedule a meeting with management for Wednesday, , the offer was declined, union business agent Tony St. Hilaire said.
CCTA asked the union to provide a change in position for their review and would be willing to meet on Saturday, St. Hilaire said, mentioning the CCTAs request to see the new proposal.
No meeting had been scheduled as of Tuesday evening.
The strike has left about 9,700 daily riders including 2,000 Burlington schoolchildren without transportation and frustrated commuters who rely on the buses to get to work, appointments and the grocery store.
Issues of contention include hours of work, specifically split shifts, as well as part-time workers and clear work rules.
McGrath was joined by drivers Donna Bartsch and Rob Slingerland in speaking to the Burlington Free Press editorial board Tuesday about new developments in the first drivers strike in CCTAs almost 41-yearhistory. The work stoppage began Monday.
The union said to management yesterday, We have a proposal. We want to come back to the table right now, McGrath said.
CCTA General Manager Bill Watterson said Tuesday afternoon he had yet to hear anything directly from the union, but there have been conversations between CCTAs attorney and St. Hilaire.
Watterson said CCTA would like to have the union submit a written contract proposal to management for review before a meeting.
The most important question that a written copy would answer, Watterson said, is: Does it offer a compromise?
Upon receiving a written proposal, CCTA will immediately review it, CCTA officials said in a written statement. If it is a serious proposal representing compromise, CCTA will be happy to sit down with the Union with the assistance of a neutral third party federal mediator.
CCTA management and the bus drivers union have been negotiating a new three-year contract for almost a year. Slingerland said Monday as the strike began that drivers will be out here as long as we have to be out here.
The transit authority said in a statement Sunday that said the union needed to issue a formal counter-offer, because management offered the previous proposal in negotiations.
At the same time, a second offer for binding arbitration, which management issued Friday, remains on the table, Watterson said and could offer a second route to a resolution.
The most concerning thing is that CCTA, including the drivers were in the people business, Watterson said, adding that the company is at its best when it is providing good customer service to those who need transportation. We want to get back to that.
More developments
A special Burlington City Council meeting was scheduled for Wednesday morning to discuss the the labor impasse, but the gathering was canceled hours later after City Council president Joan Shannon, D-Ward 5, noticed an error in calling the meeting.
Notice of the meeting should have been provided at least 24 hours in advance, Shannon said, but in this case, the council had provided only 23 hours warning.
Shannon said she had wanted to convene the meeting after emails regarding CCTA issues had begun to circulate among councilors, and official business can be conducted only in a public meeting.
There was increasing interest among councilors to make a statement on the issue, Shannon said. They were looking at making a statement through a letter, but we were advised by the city attorney that a quorum of the City Council cannot sign onto a letter. We have to have a publicly warned meeting.
Three city councilors and one councilor-elect expressed their support for CCTA drivers in a statement this week: Rachel Siegel, P-Ward 3; Vince Brennan, P-Ward 3; Max Tracy, P-Ward 2; and councilor-elect Selene Colburn, P-Ward 1.
When unionized drivers agree to strike in a unanimous vote, rather than accept the terms of a contract, despite the risks to their livelihoods and their families, it signals a deep concern for the existing working conditions, the councilors said. We call on CCTA to deliver a fair contract to drivers.
Shannon said Tuesday that she thinks it a poor idea for councilors to take sides on the issue because negotiations have been so complicated, and she suspects not all information about the negotiation process has been made public.
What were looking for is to be sure that people get back to the table and resolve their differences, Shannon said. We certainly want the drivers to be treated fairly, and Im sure that they had some very legitimate complaints that need to be resolved, but we really would like to see everybody at the table continuing to work to resolve them.
Supporters of CCTAs bus drivers had been planning to attend the meeting in force, McGrath of the Vermont Workers Center said, to educate the City Council on why they thought binding arbitration is a bad idea. Shannon said that since there is word that another contract proposal is ready, the meeting may not be rescheduled after all.
Were going to have to regroup and figure out what the best course of action is, McGrath said Tuesday evening. Both drivers and community support now have to figure out how we can continue to get the word out about why the drivers are hoping to settle the contract themselves and be part of the decision.
McGrath said the final decision should be between the CCTA management and drivers, and not be outsourced to an independent arbitrator.
Management and their lawyer, dont have to live under the terms of their proposed contract. The drivers do, the statement said. Agreeing to binding arbitration does not move the drivers closer to having safer working conditions, safer conditions for passengers, other drivers, or jobs with dignity. Reaching an agreement where the drivers feel good about going to work free from predatory management is the goal.
Watterson, the general manager, has said binding arbitration was one of the next best solutions to resolving disparities between management and drivers, adding that the method often is used by the city to settle issues. McGrath said that although the city does employ binding arbitration, the method is unique in places other than Burlington.
Contrary to what people are saying, its not really widely used at all in labor-management negotiations, McGrath said. It just so happens that the Burlington municipal workers have it as part of their contract, so I think its something that city officials are familiar with, but generally speaking, its not something that happens very often. Thats why were begging the questions as to why everyone is saying that it should happen. Its taking the decision out of the hands of both parties.
The issues
Driver Slingerland said the most important issue for him and his fellow union members is winning a contract that protects them from what they see as predatory management.
One point of contention the use of security cameras on buses to monitor employees.
Though Watterson has said the management only uses cameras on buses for security reasons, drivers Slingerland and Bartsch told the Burlington Free Press that personal experiences with cameras on their buses have them thinking more often about getting in trouble than what they need to be focused on while driving.
I love what I do, and I am an excellent driver, Bartsch said. I have a good record, and I am a good employee, but I hate the company I work for, and thats terrible.
Most drivers feel that way because of the conditions, Slingerland added. The predatory management we speak about, they follow us. ... Youre looking in your mirror, and the managements following you.
Slingerland said drivers want to be back in their buses serving the community, but the stress caused by the management does not allow drivers to offer the best customer service possible.
Why put us under more stress? Bartsch said. It makes us more jittery, so were out there having accidents.
They hire you as a professional, but they dont treat you as a professional, Slingerland said. We know our job, and we know our job well, and we know all of our passengers, our regulars. We know their needs.
Watterson said he is hoping for a resolution to the strike soon so drivers can get back to work serving the public.
It would be a good achievement, he said, and it is something we look forward to happening as soon as it can.

Tool is lightweight & powerful. I find it difficult to control the speed of the driver when installing screws into steel studs. Would prefer a slower driver speed, but then drilling would be slow. LED light is more than adequate. Easy tool changing - chuck works very smoothly. Battery will work with my other DeWalt 18 volt tools, so extra batteries are not an issue. Overall, a good tool.

This is my go to tool now for driving screws or lag bolts its absolutely fantastic !! I have been building a deck with this and driving a lot of lag bolts with it and many deck screws it has not missed a beat. I was testing it out when I got it driving large screws and 3 and 4 inch lag bolts into 4x4 's with no predrilling at all it drives them and never strains, infact its so strong it broke the driver in two that was holding the socket for the lag bolt, I have since switched to a dewalt bit that holds the socket and have had no trouble. This driver I have found is great to use on phillips head screws too ( I usually use star drive screws) because it will not strip out the head when driving it because of the impact action.

Can someone please post links for the reasons to avoid the rotavirus vaccine? I know why I would never allow it for my kids but I need links to read through to show my friend who is taking her baby in for the 2 month shots next week. Anything I could send her way would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks
Rotavirus Vaccine Links??
"Vaccine virus transmission from vaccine recipient to non- vaccinated contacts has been reported. Caution is advised when considering whether to administer RotaTeq to individuals with immunodeficient contacts. (5.5)"
And another:
Most common adverse events included diarrhea, vomiting, irritability, otitis media, nasopharyngitis, and bronchospasm. (6.1)" << doesn't that sound like rotavirus?!
Oooo or how about this one!
"12.1 Mechanism of Action
The exact immunologic mechanism by which RotaTeq protects against rotavirus gastroenteritis is unknown [see Clinical Studies (14.6)]. RotaTeq is a live viral vaccine that replicates in the small intestine and induces immunity."
All courtesy of the package insert :)
~ My child's welfare is far more important than my ego...
RotaTeq is a live viral vaccine that replicates in the small intestine and induces immunity.
Daynes, I totally agree by what you posted that it sounds like this vax just gives you rotavirus!

NV, EBF, FT WOHM, GF. BBC has changed my life! :-)
Contradicting GAVI Alliance's plea that rotavirus vaccination is a key step towards lowering child mortality, the experts said "The estimate of deaths from rotavirus was arrived at by multiplying the mean rotavirus detection rate in a country by the diarrhoea case fatality rate, assuming a uniform mortality rate for all causes of diarrhoea. This is inappropriate for two reasons. Firstly, deaths from rotavirus infection can be prevented by simple measures to correct dehydration. Bacterial diarrhoea, on the other hand, is more often associated with sepsis and systemic complications and is likely to have a higher mortality. Secondly, in up to 58 per cent of cases positive for rotavirus there is coinfection with other pathogens. Attributing all deaths to rotavirus whenever the virus is isolated overestimates rotavirus mortality.
You make want to do a Google search on the difference between bacterial diarrhea vs viral because if it's true that bacterial diarrhea is more likely to have a higher mortality, the rotavirus vaccine doesn't protect against that, I don't think.
We're just getting over RV at our house. She got it at her sitter's along with every other kid, vaxed and unvaxed alike!

Thanks Daynes, I don't know why I didn't think to go with the package insert!
mtbskimom, my dd had it two years ago. It was a rough few days, but she was fine. I absolutely don't regret passing on that vaccine!
Secondly, in up to 58 per cent of cases positive for rotavirus there is coinfection with other pathogens. Attributing all deaths to rotavirus whenever the virus is isolated overestimates rotavirus mortality.
^^^^ That's interesting xaroc. My dd was already sick with a different virus when she contracted rotavirus. So that would make sense that it would be worse on children with other infections.
I was just researching this myself - and by sticking just to the CDC website info, I was able to see that the vaccine is supposed to be the "first" of many rotovirus infections with the hope that the vaccine will cause the first "real" infection to be less severe. But that it causes diarrhea/vomiting as a common "mild" reaction.
So translated it sounds like the vaccine gives your child the disease and that it is not even intended to prevent the vaccine, as it is a virus that you will likely get over and over again anyways.

Drinking Water Q&A
Do you have questions about your private drinking water supply? How about wellhead protection, including the management of your private sewage treatment system? Send your questions using the Ask An Expert feature on this web site. University of Nebraska - Lincoln Extension Water Quality Educator Sharon Skipton will address your questions.
Q: How can I safely store water for an emergency drinking water supply?
A: I was out of the office, so UNL Extension Associate Nancy Urbanec referred to the NebGuide- Drinking Water: Storing An Emergency Supply to provide the answer. I followed up at Nancy's request to see if the caller had any additional questions.
The caller got their drinking water from Omaha's Metropolitan Utilities District (MUD.) MUD's public water supply is safe and suitable for storage; it is disinfected, and is free of disease causing organisms.
When storing water from any potable water supply, bacteria can be inadvertently introduced into the water during the collection and storage process. MUD's water supply may contain enough residual disinfectant to deactivate pathogens that might be introduced during the water storage process, making additional treatment prior to storage unnecessary. However, for an additional safety margin, the water can be treated with a chemical disinfectant to inactivate organisms that might be present in the storage containers, or that might be introduced as the water is collected.
This treatment is especially important for water supplies that are not disinfected, such as water from a private drinking water well.
Use liquid household chlorine bleach that contains 4 to 6 percent sodium hypochlorite. Chemical treatment provided by the bleach will inactivate pathogens that may be introduced through unsterile containers or when filling the containers. Bleaches with labels such as "Fresh Wildflowers," "Rain Clean," "Advantage," or labeled as scented may contain fragrances, soaps, surfactants, or other additives and should not be used for drinking water disinfection. Use the freshest container of liquid chlorine bleach available, preferably not more than three months old. Add six drops of bleach per gallon of water using a clean uncontaminated medicine dropper. If the bleach contains a lesser or greater percent of sodium hypochlorite, adjust the dose accordingly.
Stir the water, cover, and allow it to stand for 30 minutes. You should be able to smell chlorine after the 30-minute waiting period. If you cannot, add another dose and let the water stand covered another 15 minutes. Cap containers and label each, describing the contents and preparation date.
See the NebGuide for more information, including how long water can be stored.

Water and Waste Management When Guests Arrive
By Sharon Skipton, Nebraska Extension Water Quality Educator
When you have your own drinking water well and your own septic system, managing water and waste is important. If you have holiday guests who are not familiar with private drinking water and wastewater systems, spend some time educating them so they will understand the importance of conserving water, spreading out water use, and managing solid waste properly.

Stackpacks, Lazyjacks, and Mainsail Facts!

Thanked 63 Times in 58 Posts
Rep Power:
I have sailed with a lazy bag for the least 4 seasons - wont go back..
Used to have lazy jacks and sail cover, while cruising we now cover the sail when not in use.
These comments are based om my setup - I know there are lots of different designs around.
It does not interfere with reefing lines or outhaul.
It can be stowed along the boom if I will improve air flow around the lower part of the sail
My main is loose footed and the lazy bag sits in the luff rope track on the boom.
There is a batten on both sides to stiffen up the cover, I can also roll the cover onto the battens to stove it on the boom.
The lazy jacks are integrated into the system, there are 4 attachment points on each side made of strong webbing.
I have used SS rings to link the lines (less friction than rope/rope, cheap, noting to chafe the sail)
The bottom part of the cover is made of some mesh , except for aft part where it is open and only attached with webbing straps and slugs.
The cover are held together around the mast with webbing strops.
In this photo the cover is rolled onto the batten and secured to the boom.
The lazy jacks are led forward and one of the SS rings are visible.
Her you can see the hook used to hold the cover in place, notice that the hook opens downwards. You can also see the mesh in the bottom of the bag.
This is the opposite side withe the eye and the bungee loop.

Transportation from the Airport
One thing I was slightly concerned about prior to our trip was the fact that we had not made travel arrangements to get from the airport to our hotel. We did not want to spend our entire trip allowance on an overpriced taxi to Oia.
If you find yourself in the same situation - there is no need to worry. Simply walking out of the airport you will be greeted by more people than necessary, offering to drive you to your hotel. We went with the first person who approached us, and after making the mistake of getting in the motorcoach without asking the price, we were pleasantly surprised to learn it was much less than we were expecting.
Are the Roads in Santorini Safe to Drive?
The roads on the island of Santorini are very safe, as long as you are not drunk. !
We were there a year ago, and we rented a car.
Believe me, if you don't rent a car you won't see enough of the island. Cars are quite cheap -depending on the month you rent it, but it is worth renting one. Another tip is worth booking a nice hotel with view.
(See the hotel we booked in my tips) One was on a budget but really good, and the other at Fyra was just exceptional.
The roads might be in some parts a little narrow, but as always you have to be careful. Nothing can happen believe me.
Rent a car and don't worry at all.
Enjoy your trip there without any fear or second thoughts.
The 588 Steps To and From The Old Port.
Santorini's Old Port is where the boat excursions depart and arrive, and also where the cruise ship's tenders drop-off. From Fira town centre there's a zig-zag of 588 steps. The steps are broad and quite gently-inclined which makes walking down relatively easy - just watch out for the mule shiit. Walking up though is a long haul but there is a strategically-placed bar about half-way!
If you dont fancy the walk you can either take the cable car or ride a mule.
Using a mule isn't actually any faster than walking and has the disadvantage of not being able to stop off at the mid-way bar because there's nowhere to tie it up.
The cable car, on the other hand, takes minutes, unless a cruise ship has just arrived, and there's a strategically-placed bar at the top too!
Both the cable car and the mules cost 4 Euros one-way (2009 prices). Website below has cable car timetables and current prices.Related to:

From Airport to OIA
I fully understand that EUR 30,00 might sound quite expensive, but this is Santorini!After having made some calculations, I think the price is right!I am going to explain that to you:
Although I have not ever taken a taxi to Oia, I can tell you that a normal price, if you want to take a taxi from Fira (the capital of Santorini) to Oia, should be around 15-20 Euros.From Fira to the airport should be around 5-8 euros.It depends on the number of your suitcases, but for a piece of suitcase, plus a small bag, should be at least 1 Euro.Plus 3 Euros charge, for taking a taxi from the airport.If you sum up all those amounts, they make more than 30 Euros!
You do not mention at what time are you going to arrive at the Santorini Airport! If it is after midnight, the principle of "the double tariff" is applied, so in that case, it would cost you more than 30Euros!
I think that the price is right! All those professional hotel owner, they know their job very well, so they do not cheat!
In your case, as you are going to stay at their hotel, it would be fair to ask for a small "reduction" of the price: 25 Euros would be perfect.But, even 30 Euros, though quite expensive, sounds reasonable.It is always better that somebody is waiting for you, instead of searching for a taxi!
Good luck and enjoy your holidays in Santorini.Related to:

Silicene or germanene is a monolayer honeycomb lattice made of Si or Ge, similar to graphene made of C. In this work, we have assessed the performance potentials of silicene nanoribbon (SiNR), germanene nanoribbon (GeNR), and graphene nanoribbon (GNR), which all have a sufficient band gap to switch off, as field-effect transistor (FET) channel materials. We have demonstrated that, by comparing at the same band gap of ∼0.5 eV, the GNR FET maintains an advantage over SiNR or GeNR FETs under an ideal transport situation, but SiNR and GeNR are attractive channel materials for high-performance FETs as well.

A uniform and pinhole-free hole-blocking layer is necessary for high-performance perovskite-based thin-film solar cells. In this study, we investigated the effect of nanoscale pinholes in compact TiO 2 layers on the device performance. Surface morphology and film resistance studies show that TiO 2 compact layers fabricated using atomic layer deposition (ALD) contain a much lower density of nanoscale pinholes than layers obtained by spin coating and spray pyrolysis methods. The ALD-based TiO 2 layer acts as an efficient hole-blocking layer in perovskite solar cells; it offers a large shunt resistance and enables a high power conversion efficiency of 12.56%.

We report on the fabrication and characterization of AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with the emission wavelength ranging from 255 to 280 nm depending on the Al composition of the active region. The LEDs were flip-chip bonded and achieved external quantum efficiencies of over 3% for all investigated wavelengths. Under cw operation, an output power of more than 1 mW at 10 mA was demonstrated. A moth-eye structure was fabricated on the back side of the sapphire substrate, and on-wafer output power measurement indicated a 1.5-fold improvement of light extraction.

The perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of an Ir/CoFeB/MgO trilayer was investigated after annealing at temperatures ranging from 200 to 350 °C. In the trilayer system annealed at 300 °C, we measured an interface anisotropy energy of 1.9 mJ/m 2. Further annealing led to mixing of the buffer and ferromagnet, degrading the properties of the latter. In addition, we show the dependence of the magnetic anisotropy on the bias voltage. The presented system is important for the development of perpendicular magnetic tunnel junctions for storage applications.

In this paper, we report on 1.2-kV-class vertical GaN-based trench metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs) on a free-standing GaN substrate with a low specific on-resistance. A redesigned epitaxial layer structure following our previous work with a regular hexagonal trench gate layout enables us to reduce the specific on-resistance to as low as 1.8 mΩ·cm 2 while obtaining a sufficient blocking voltage for 1.2-kV-class operation. Normally-off operation with a threshold voltage of 3.5 V is also demonstrated. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on vertical GaN-based MOSFETs with a specific on-resistance of less than 2 mΩ·cm 2.

Growth conditions were explored to suppress the carbon impurity incorporation in AlGaN:Mg grown at low temperatures. Electrical properties of Al 0.07Ga 0.93N:Mg samples with various carbon concentrations were investigated by Hall measurements. A clear correlation between carbon concentration and electrical conductivity has been found. By reducing the carbon concentration from 2 × 10 18 to 5 × 10 16 cm −3, the resistivity of p-Al 0.07Ga 0.93N decreases from 7.4 to 2.2 Ω·cm. From the results of the analysis of the charge neutrality equation, we found that the carbon concentration is close to the compensating donor concentration in the AlGaN:Mg samples, which suggests that carbon acts as the main compensating donor in AlGaN:Mg.

Nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond have attracted significant interest because of their excellent spin and optical characteristics for quantum information and metrology. To exploit these characteristics, precise control of the orientation of the NV axis in the lattice is essential. Here we show that the orientation of more than 99% of the NV centers can be aligned along the [111] axis by chemical vapor deposition homoepitaxial growth on (111) substrates. We also discuss the alignment mechanisms. Our result enables a fourfold improvement in the magnetic field sensitivity and opens new avenues to the optimum design of NV center devices.

Two-dimensional electron mobilities in AlGaN-channel nitride heterostructures were numerically and experimentally analyzed. The calculation and experimental results indicated that mobility for InAlN/AlGaN heterostructures grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition was limited by interface roughness scattering as well as alloy disorder scattering. The mobility limits for AlGaN-channel heterostructures with a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) density of 3 × 10 13/cm 2 were estimated to be, for instance, 249 cm 2 V −1 s −1 for an Al 0.3Ga 0.7N channel and 192 cm 2 V −1 s −1 for an Al 0.5Ga 0.5N channel. The calculated values showed no major disagreement with the results reported on AlGaN-channel heterostructures.

The use of optical antennas in tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) makes it a powerful optical analysis and imaging technique at the nanoscale. Optical antennas can work as nano-light sources in the visible region. The plasmonic resonance of an antenna depends on its length; thus, by varying the length, one can control the enhancement in TERS. In this study, we demonstrated a fabrication method based on focused ion beam milling to realize optical antennas with desired lengths. We then measured the resonances of these fabricated antennas and performed TERS imaging of carbon nanotubes to demonstrate the antenna length dependence on plasmonic resonance.

To obtain a large-area single-crystal graphene, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) growth on Cu is considered the most promising. Recently, the surface oxygen on Cu has been found to suppress the nucleation of graphene. However, the effect of oxygen in the vapor phase was not elucidated sufficiently. Here, we investigate the effect of O 2 partial pressure ( P O2) on the CVD growth of graphene using radiation-mode optical microscopy. The nucleation density of graphene decreases monotonically with P O2, while its growth rate reaches a maximum at a certain pressure. Our results indicate that P O2 is an important parameter to optimize in the CVD growth of graphene.

Phillies lose 5-2 to Dodgers in Hamel's debut
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Philadelphia manager Ryne Sandberg liked what he saw from Cole Hamels in his long-awaited season debut. A better job by the bullpen would have helped, along with a few more runs against Zack Greinke.
Greinke outpitched Hamels with seven strong innings, Hanley Ramirez homered and Yasiel Puig drove in two runs for the Los Angeles Dodgers in a 5-2 victory over the Phillies on Wednesday night.
Hamels took the loss in his season debut, after missing the first three weeks because of biceps tendinitis. The 30-year-old left-hander threw 86 pitches, allowing two runs and six hits over six innings with five strikes and a walk.
"It was good to see Cole out there and great to see the way that he threw the ball with the quality that he had and the stuff that he had," Sandberg said. "He was outstanding for the first outing of the year — 86 pitches and two runs. He did his job right there. He gave us a chance to win."
Hamels made 30 or more starts in each of the previous six seasons, so starting the season this late was an adjustment for him.
"That's in the past. I don't really think about last year or last week. I just keep going forward and try to get healthy," Hamels said. "... I knew what I was going into. It was just a matter of preparing myself just like I normally have and getting ready in a spring training-type setting. It was just a couple of weeks later than everybody else."
Puig struck out his first two times up, but lined an RBI single to right in the fifth to put the Dodgers ahead 2-1 after Hamels gave up a two-out single by Drew Butera and walked Greinke.
"You can never walk the pitcher. I understand Greinke is a very good hitter, but at the same time, you have to let him hit his way on," Hamels said. "That right there was the ballgame. It decided everything in terms of what transpired in the next inning and it racked up my pitch count right there."
Juan Uribe's sacrifice fly gave Los Angeles 1-0 lead in the second, after Matt Kemp led off with the first of his two doubles. Ryan Howard tied it in the fourth with an RBI single after a leadoff double by Jimmy Rollins.
Greinke (4-0) had nine strikeouts through the first five innings, including five in a row after Howard's hit. He also doubled with two outs in the seventh and scored on Puig's triple off the right field fence.
"Greinke was pretty tough. He was kind of the equalizer tonight," Sandberg said. "He used his off-speed stuff, spotted his fastball, and I thought his slider was really good. We didn't have too many opportunities, as far as multiple baserunners."
Greinke allowed two runs and five hits while striking out 11 and walking one batter intentionally. Manager Don Mattingly tried to squeeze one more inning out of the right-hander, but lifted him after Jayson Nix drove Greinke's 108th pitch to left-center for a leadoff homer.

Ok, so about 3 times this year, I've started working out, and then after about 2 weeks, I just quit because I find I have no motivation. Back when I was wrestling, I had to be in shape or I would get beat up on in front of large amounts of people. Now, if I'm not in shape, I just go to work and am like the majority of the general population. I've always said that the only way that I could get back into shape would be to either a)get back into competitive sports, which isn't going to happen, I'm not crazy enough to do MMA, or b)make a bet with someone that had a consequence that actually meant something to me.
So, obviously option B is the only thing that will ever get me off of my butt. In order for me to bet something with any one person, I'd have to bet like 5k or some meaningful amount of money. I'm pretty sure I don't know anyone that would do that with me, so I'm going to have to make a smaller bet with a bunch of people.
First, I need to think of some kind of measurement of me being "in shape". I want my time frame to be the next 4 months, i.e. until the end of winter vacation. I was thinking something like "Run a mile in x amount of time", bench x pounds, or some combination of both, but where 'x' would be a little more attainable in each case. FWIW, I probably can't even run a mile in 9 minutes now and I probably can't bench 225. So I pretty much am hoping you guys can give me some ideas on this one.
Once I have 2 or 3 good ideas, I'm going to send out a myspace bulletin (gay, I know, but only way I know how to get a lot of people in on the action)asking what "challenge" people would like to see me complete. I'll leave the "voting" open for 3 days or so, and whichever has the most votes is what I will do.
For everyone that votes (either for the winning thing or just votes in general, not sure what I want to do yet), if I don't meet the challenge by the end of the year, I'll have to treat them to a night on the town, i.e. go out and pay for all of their drinks one night. If I have a lot of people respond, then this money would definitely add up, and would be something that I would rather not do. If I do reach the goal, then I just don't have to do it, and I'm in good shape and not a turd like I am now. I'm obviously willing to other "bet" ideas, this was just the first thing I could think of.
So, any ideas for how to measure my in-shape-ness? Oh, and you guys can all be in the action too, with my potential night on the town to be paid at NCAAs.

I too share the author's ire that we are still having to defend the use of comics in the classroom. The theory is that things have changed - both the comics and the classrooms. In practice, however, we still have a lot to do in the classroom in terms of inviting the comics medium in.
Louise Robinson-Lay's curator insight, June 29, 2013 1:09 AM
I am excited by this. I was considering it for our yeaschool lass as we are a boys' school. I am very interested to see how students respond. It looks like a text the boys, who have very good visual literacy, would like. I did canvas it in class and the response was positive. As we are a new school we are fortunate in that we can choose texts that best support our own students. An opportunity not always available in some more established schools where teachers may have preconceived notions about what works based on what has worked on the past. We can be a bit more flexible, and hopefully, innovative, in our approaches. The idea of a graphic novel may be more interesting. I havat taught Persepolis before and that worked well so I look forward to the chance to do it with an English class.

Overnight rain has delayed construction work on southbound Interstate 5 in Woodland, leaving one lane closed until crews get a long enough dry window to move ahead.
Crews had planned to lay down a waterproof membrane designed to protect the freeway, which is being resurfaced as part of larger project, according to the Washington State Department of Transportation. But when raindrops started falling overnight Thursday into Friday, workers were forced to hold off -- for now.
"It's critical that there is no moisture underneath that membrane when they put it down," said WSDOT spokeswoman Abbi Russell.
The southbound right lane of the I-5 bridge over the East Fork of the Lewis River remains closed at least through tonight, Russell said. Workers must put down the membrane before they can repave over the top of it, and they need about a six-hour window of completely dry weather to do it, she said.
WSDOT hopes to have all lanes of the bridge open for this weekend, if the weather cooperates. But it may not -- the forecast calls for at least a chance of showers in Woodland lingering through Sunday.
Southbound I-5 drivers should expect some delays if they're passing through Woodland, Russell said. But work crews are ready to act, day or night, when the time comes.
"If they have a window of opportunity," Russell said, "they will take it."
