Sotomayor scrutiny begins
Supreme Court nominee invokes 'fidelity of the law'
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., was upfront about the likely outcome: "Unless you have a complete meltdown," he told the nominee, "you are going to get confirmed."
He added that he did not expect a meltdown to occur, and said he may end up voting for her.
Sotomayor was incidental to much of the action yesterday. After Sessions and committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., escorted her to the witness table, she listened for hours as the senators discussed her, the president and the court.
Leahy said Sotomayor has an uncommonly extensive judicial résumé. "She is the first nominee in well over a century to be nominated to three different federal judgeships by three different presidents," he said. The others were Presidents George H.W. Bush and Bill Clinton.
Leahy compared Sotomayor to Thurgood Marshall, the court's first black justice, and Sandra Day O'Connor, its first female member.
Conservatives and some Republicans, Leahy said, have attempted to "twist her words and her record. . . . Ideological pressure groups have attacked her before the president had even made his selection," he said. "They then stepped up their attacks by threatening Republican senators who do not oppose her."
Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., Sotomayor's home-state senator, said that "judicial modesty" marked the judge's time on the bench, and he defied Republicans to point to anything in her decisions that would dispute the characterization.
Republicans said that Sotomayor has been bound by precedent, and that her true feelings are more apparent from the speeches she has given, with several recalling her remarks that a "wise Latina" because of her life experiences would "hopefully" make better decisions than a white man. The White House has said the remarks have been taken out of context, and Sotomayor will likely be pressed about them today.
Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, who leads the National Republican Senatorial Committee, the party's campaign arm, thanked Sotomayor for the "candor."
"Not every judicial nominee is so open about their judicial philosophy," he said. "Yet many Americans wonder what these various statements mean – and what you're trying to get at with these remarks. And many more wonder whether you are the kind of judge who will uphold the written Constitution – or the kind of judge who will veer us even further off course – and towards new rights invented by judges rather than ratified by the people."
If Republicans repeatedly jabbed at Obama and tried to make the case that Sotomayor would be an activist judge, Democrats strayed from praising her only to criticize the court's most recent additions, Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito. If Roberts wowed the committee four years ago during his confirmation hearing with his image of a judge as an impartial umpire calling balls and strikes, it was clear that the bloom was gone for Democrats.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said that despite pledges from nominees to respect precedent, the conservative court is overturning decisions on issues such as campaign finance and abortion rights.
"It showed me that Supreme Court justices are much more than umpires calling balls and strikes and that the word 'activist' is often used only to describe opinions of one side," Feinstein said.

How to Shop After-Christmas Sales
Don't worry if you missed Black Friday or Cyber Monday—you can still snag great deals the day after Christmas. Here's how to get the most out of your post-holiday shopping.
Smart Shopper
A version of this article originally appeared on Learnvest.com.
Sure, Black Friday deals were good. But what about the next enticing round of sales?
You know, the ones that start the day after Christmas, when a new round of price cutting starts as stores try to offload excess holiday inventory and make room for spring items.
But is it really worth heading to the mall, especially when you've probably already stretched your December budget to the breaking point?
We asked money-saving consumer expert Andrea Woroch for her advice on navigating those post-holiday sales. She told us what to buy, what to pass on–and, more importantly, how to outsmart stores to keep your spending in check.

Feathering Prop vs. Fixed Blade Prop

Max Pro Woes
Last October while sailing my PS 34 along the coast of Maine, I caught a lobster buoy in my 3 blade Max Pro. The engine stopped, I started it again, put it into reverse tentatively and the buoy popped out with a gash on it. However, upon trying to resume forward, I found the prop was entirely dysfunctional. I limped into a mooring and dived to check the prop. The teeth were stripped on one blade.
Has this happened to others? I had no idea this was such an weakness in this design.
By the way, I asked Nigel Calder when he was last in town and he said feathering props are good to have. Drag is significant on fixed props. (I mention this because earlier posts were unclear how he came down on this issue).
I'm interested to learn if others have stripped a blade (on any make of feathering prop). I certainly will carry a spare fixed blade prop as a back up in the future.

Hi Folks
It is almost time for the windows 7 to hit the market. We have incorporated a lot of cool features to make your life simpler in this version of Windows. Now let us see if we can get you hooked to these features even before Windows 7 releases. This blog is basically to highlight one of the many cool features in windows 7, called the VAN UI.
The VAN UI (View Available Networks UI) is a feature of the system tray on the right bottom corner of the desktop. The UI shows details of the network that you are connected to as well as the list of available networks.
Now let me illustrate on the new look and features of the VAN UI. I have listed them below:
1) When you hover over the 'Network' icon on the bottom right side of the desktop, a tooltip comes up showing the current network to which you are connected.
2) On clicking over the VAN UI icon on the system tray, you can see all the available networks to connect. The available networks are grouped into categories: 'Wireless network connections', 'Local area connections' and so on. In Windows Vista, you could only see the current network to which you were connected.
3) Another new feature in the VAN UI is that you can now connect to a network through the VAN UI directly. On clicking on the desired network in the VAN UI, the panel expands to show a 'Connect' button. On clicking the 'Connect' button, you are connected to the network . In windows Vista, to do the same, you had to click on 'Connect to a network' on the VAN UI that took you to a new dialog box showing all the available networks.
We just saw the general VAN UI changes in Windows 7. Now let us see how the VAN UI has improved the Remote Access experience. New notifications have been added to the VAN UI for VPN connections. Consider the following scenario:
1) Consider that you connect to VPN over a physical Ethernet interface. The VAN UI shows status of both networks as 'Connected'
2) Now, suppose that you have a power outage and the Ethernet connection gets disconnected. In this situation, the VPN connection goes into a dormant state. The VAN UI updates the status of the VPN connection to "Dormant: Server Unavailable"
3) Now, suppose you switch on wireless connection. VPN tries to connect over that network. The status of the VPN connection in the VAN UI changes to "Dormant: Waiting to reconnect"
4) If the connection is successful, the status of VPN connection in the VAN UI changes to "Connected".
NOTE: The above experience related to RAS is relevant only for IKEv2 tunnel.
With Regards,
Anirban Paul

Looks nice.
Does it have an API? Enumerating Networks, query status and connect/disconnect for example.
For querying status of RAS connection and for connecting/disconnecting RAS connections you can continue to use existing RAS APIs. Let me know if you need additional info on them
For enumerating networks there should be an API but i am not sure. I will check and let you know. Are there any other functionalities you are looking for?
203 Microsoft Team blogs searched, 82 blogs have new articles in the past 7 days. 210 new articles found
Hi Aanand.
No, thank you. Currently i´m fine with the existing APIs.
It´s too bad that RAS allways introduces new Features for an OS but the according API for that is delivered in the next Version.
The main Problem will be that Real-World Software has to run on older Systems too.
We have an RAS Custom DLL Application that establishes VPN by using MS-VPN Ras API. There are a lot of good features in Vista and i think also in 7, but we can´t target them all as the client has to perform the same on XP, Vista and of course 7 in the future.
What about a new DUN Update (Like KB285189)? Bring all the new Features to XP and Vista.
To enumerate the networks in VAN UI you can use the NLM APIs which are already public. You can find info about them at
RAS doesnt own these APIs. VAN UI is used for all media types, not only RAS
As of now we dont have any plans to add support for new features on down-level clients/servers

Young royals take center stage at London Olympics
nepal You can't hold the London Olympics without the British royals, now can you?
The two have been intertwined over the years like the Olympic rings themselves. At the London Games this summer, they'll be everywhere - Wills and Kate, Harry and Zara, the queen and Prince Philip - posing, pronouncing, maybe even participating.
These games will showcase a whole new royal generation: the elegant Duchess of Cambridge, whose fairy-tale wedding last year was watched by hundreds of millions; the irrepressible Prince Harry, at 27 one of the world's most eligible bachelors; and another one of Queen Elizabeth II's grandchildren, Zara Phillips, who is seeking a berth on the British equestrian team just like both her parents did years ago.
Prince William, his wife Kate and Harry will all be Olympic ambassadors. It's not clear what any of the royals will actually be doing or where they will be appearing, but British officials and tourism experts consider their presence vital.
"They're great for attracting publicity," said Joe Little, the managing editor of Majesty magazine. "Everybody wants to see the Duchess of Cambridge. ... It's the youth-and-glamour thing."
Visit Britain says some 30 million people come to the country each year to see its cultural heritage - such as Buckingham Palace, the changing of the guard and the Beefeaters at the Tower of London.
Britain's culture and heritage sites bring in 4.5 billion pounds ($7 billion) of the 17 billion pounds ($26.6 billion) spent by overseas visitors annually. This being an Olympic year - and the queen's 60th Jubilee anniversary to boot - the focus on U.K. palaces and royals will be magnified.
To make the most of things, the monarch plans to open Buckingham Palace to accommodate Olympic activities.
A tourism promotion is being launched to coincide with the July 27-Aug. 12 games: the GREAT campaign, as in Great Britain. It hopes to capitalize on the Olympic excitement and bring an extra 2 billion pounds ($1.5 billion) of tourism spending into Britain's beleaguered economy.
Harry did his bit to build excitement last week in Jamaica, donning a jersey emblazoned with Jamaica's green, black and gold colors and clowning around with 100-meter champion Usain Bolt. They joked and "raced" one another, meeting on the track to strike a mock lightning bolt pose, Bolt's signature.
"I am not directly involved in the (Olympic) organization, otherwise who knows what might happen?" the helicopter pilot-trainee prince joked. "If work permits me, I will definitely get the chance, hopefully, to visit as many events as possible."
The royals and the Olympics have long been intertwined, going back to a time when only the very rich could afford to train and remain amateurs.
London took on the Olympics for the first time in 1908, after Mount Vesuvius erupted in Rome, forcing Italy to pull out. King Edward VII lobbied for Britain to host those games, playing a key role in persuading the government to accept the task at a time when the Olympics were largely unknown.

The narrative structure in my work has evolved through many stages. The objects I depict function as screens for psychological projection.
I often use the cabinet of curiosity as a model for the placement of the seemingly random array of objects. Within that model, the selection of each object follows the art of memory in which random things trigger associations to arise in the viewers mind. The turbulent relationship between the figure and the objects surrounding it is intentionally exaggerated.

Rankings miss mark
The selection of worst and best presidents was fascinating and instructive, until I got to the note that George W. Bush was on the best list, and after only 3½ years out of office. Many historians would wonder at your Editorial Board's rush to judgment.
If he is among "the best," why would the GOP not have him on the convention agenda, but then I got it – you were writing satire, and fooling us, again.
Ed Hoffman
Mission Beach
I don't know what is more of an indictment on your judgment, naming a sitting president "worst of all time" before his term expires or putting a president who was voted out of office as one of the greatest. Incidentally, George W. Bush's inclusion can only be attributed to being a conversation starter, or worse yet, a desperate attempt to get people riled up – which if that is the case, "mission accomplished."
Judging by who your "top five" list consists of, your endorsement of the current Republican nominee is probably worse than any negative ad that the Democrats can muster against Romney.
John Wayne

Exhausting the allocation
Your editorial "Still more irresponsibility in Sacramento" (Aug. 25) expresses the desire "that government should be run like a business," but in fact, in many ways it is.
In the late '50s and early '60s I worked first for National Cash Register (NCR) and then for Litton Industries. We were developing the computers they were hoping to sell to their customers. Toward the end of the year, I remember our managers asking us if there was anything we might want or need before the end of the year because if we didn't spend all the money we had been budgeted for the current year, our "budgets would be reduced" for the coming year.
It seems as if government agencies are being "run like a business."

HRSC partial view of Martian south pole where OMEGA found water ice
January 18, 2005
A partial (visible) view of the Martian south polar ice cap, taken on 11 February 2004 during orbit 103 by the High Resolution Stereo Camera on Mars Express, from an altitude of 269 kilometres light. The south pole is where the OMEGA instrument made its significant discovery, with the steep slopes known as 'scarps' made almost entirely of water ice, falling away from the polar cap to the surrounding plains, and the permafrost fields that stretch for tens of kilometres away from the scarps.

New Delhi, July 21
THE Petroleum Minister, Mr Mani Shankar Aiyar, today met the Finance Minister, Mr P. Chidambaram, to discuss the board composition of oil companies, particularly ONGC. The two also discussed the role of the Finance Ministry nominee on the ONGC board.
Mr Aiyar is understood to have sought the Finance Minister's view on the composition of ONGC board with reference to the strength of independent directors. With the SEBI setting December 31, 2005 as the last date of compliance with the revised Clause 49 of the Listing Agreement, which stipulates that 50 per cent of the members on a company's board should be independent directors, the PSU boards may have to undergo change in composition.

Comments about Spooky Sky Backdrop:
I used this on the top half of the walls in my garage since it only went halfway down. I used the brick wall one on the bottom portion. Two of them did the trick of covering the garage walls on three sides, helping set the mood for a Halloween party. Unfortunately it was pretty wrinkled and had a hard time flattening out. Might work better on sheetrocked walls.

Spooky sky backdrop
Describe Yourself:
Midrange Shopper
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
Comments about Spooky Sky Backdrop:
Using as a backdrop for my Halloween display. Pairing with the stone wall backdrop so it will be 8ft tall. Should be shipped around a tube instead of folded over and over. Lots of creases and wrinkles once all unpacked.

Outlooks - Sep 2012
Canada's National Gay Magazine
THE OUTLOOKS INTERVIEW A WAY TO BE GAY? IF YOU THINK YOU'RE THE EXPERT ON YOUR OWN SEXUALITY, A NEW BOOK CHALLENGES YOU TO THINK AGAIN BY JIM BROSSEAU avid M. Halperin has written what might be called an archaeological study of gay culture. His excavation is a veritable public service to anyone who's ever wondered why a Lady Gaga--or Judy Garland--holds a place in the LGBT community that isn't quite the same among their heterosexual counterparts. Still, the very specter of "gay identity" in a world where, for many, integration is viewed as the ultimate civil-rights victory, inevitably sparks controversy. Halperin, on the faculty of the University of Michigan--and W.H. Auden Distinguished University Professor of the History and Theory of Sexuality--is no stranger to controversy. Back in 2000, he introduced a class titled "How to Be Gay: Male Homosexuality and Initiation." Then, as now, Halperin's quest was to illuminate "the plurality of ways in which people determine how to be gay." But hold on: The word "determine" would suggest there's a choice in the matter of sexuality. We all know where that notion can lead. And lead it did. But if criticism from conservative quarters--including the predictable charge that taxpayer funds were "encouraging" homosexuality--was not unexpected, there was surprising pushback from the gay community, as well. The resultant firestorm is but one psychological turf battle (food fight might be more appropriate) chronicled in Halperin's new book, How to Be Gay (The Belknap Press of Harvard University Press). D His exhaustive exploration of the icons and idiosyncrasies associated with gay identity holds up a floor-length mirror to an entire subculture. OUTLOOKS: In a few passages within How to Be Gay, I sensed the suggestion that gays are "born that way." Was that a misreading? DAVID HALPERIN: I'm not interested in what causes homosexuality or heterosexuality, and anyway no one has the slightest clue about that. I am interested in the cultural practice of male homosexuality, in male homosexuality as a cultural orientation rather than a sexual orientation. I don't think anyone is born with a liking for Born This Way, and I don't think there's a gene that causes you to be a fan of Lady Gaga. That is something you acquire. OUTLOOKS: A choice? DH: That doesn't mean it's a choice. As a cultural formation, being gay is like being Canadian or middle class: It's a social experience. It's neither a natural condition nor an individual quirk. I could even say it's the way you're born--in the sense that if you're born and raised in Canada, you inevitably become a Canadian of one sort or another, whether you want to become one or not. And your subjective life, your instincts and intuitions, will necessarily be shaped by your being a Canadian, by your connectedness to Canadian culture. But this doesn't mean OUTLOOKS 29

Greta app but needs improvement on location accuracy
This app made so many problems for me on so many levels. I was out on business travel and my husband could not get ahold of me so he check in the app to pinpoint my location. Although I was in the hotel sleep the app would change my location "slightly" every minute to the point it looked like I was a few feet from my actual location. I went into the app ad saw the change occur every minute the app refreshed. I love this app not only for my kids and for safety percussion when I am traveling alone. Just make sure who ever you are sharing your location with know that it gives you the location within a certain parameter. Kind of like the find iPhone with the green circle around you pined location.
Works great!
So tired of people's incessant whining, the app works great for me, my family & friends. I can see where they are within 10 or so feet. I can tell if they are in a moving vehicle. If I hit hybrid or standard on the map road names appear. The maps are a little dated but does it really matter if Suzie's treehouse shows on the map or if it shows little Suzie on the swings instead of the sandbox? Are we so lazy that we can't look around with our own eyes to find each other a few feet away? For those of you complaining that your location is off & the app isn't working, hello, check your settings! Look in iCloud, privacy & location-system services. Make sure all three are set to share your location. It's not rocket science folks!!!
Love Hate Relationship
The app works great and does most of what it's suppose to do except if you're using this with your husband/wife girlfriend/boyfriend for awhile and then all of a sudden if it says location not available it makes them wonder why. Also, it's funny how as long as you have more than one apple product you can leave it at your house set the location to that and as long as it's connected to the Internet it will tell the person you're home or wherever the other device is, which I think is clever, all in all it's great for when you worry about someone making it home safely etc etc spying on your children unless they're slick like that. I recommend to any suspicious people that have rocky relationships with people that are clever and have more than one iDevice, to think into them just switching the location LOL.

This hotel had lovely grounds and a wonderful setting, and the shortcut through the park to the town centre was excellent, but we found that certain of the staff were not over friendly, especiallly on reception. The breakfast buffet was very poor for a 5 star hotel with very limited choice and on at least two of the mornings items had run out and had not been replaced. I believe 5 star prices for a 4 star service.

Floyd Landis, currently racing in New Zealand, said French authorities have yet to notify him that he is being charged with any crime and once again denied having a role in any hacking scheme related to his unsuccessful attempt to overturn his doping case in 2006.
"I have never received a summons from any French court or been contacted in any way by any French authority regarding this matter,'' Landis told ESPN.com in an e-mail. "I have never hired someone to hack into any computer. I am unaware of any evidence to support the claim that I have done so and I hope that the Judge in this case is astute enough to understand that."
Landis, who was stripped of the 2006 Tour de France title for doping, is riding for the Orca Velo Merino team in the six-day Tour of Southland. He has been unable to find a permanent job in cycling since last spring, when he confessed to having used banned substances and techniques throughout much of his career and made explosive accusations against others in the sport that triggered a federal investigation of organized doping on the U.S. Postal Service teams led by Lance Armstrong beginning more than a decade ago.
Team manager Wayne Hudson on Wednesday dismissed as "old news" reports that Landis and coach Arnie Baker might be tried in France for hacking the computer system of the Chatenay-Malabry lab, saying the American cyclist was "not losing any sleep" over it.
Landis was not available for comment after riding in the fourth and fifth stages of the nine-stage tour on Wednesday. He is fourth overall in the race, which concludes Saturday.
Hudson said the warrant against Landis and Baker was issued more than 18 months ago and came up this week for reconsideration.
Judge Thomas Cassuto, who sits in Nanterre, just west of Paris, decided Oct. 15 that Landis and Baker should face trial but no date was set.
"If nothing was done, [the warrant] would have lapsed. The question was whether the warrant should stay open or not," Hudson said.
"But the warrant was never served on Floyd. So the suggestion he will stand trial in France is a ridiculous statement because they still have to serve him," he said.
The prosecutor's office had argued against sending Landis to trial, contending the inquiry failed to show he participated in the hacking or knowingly received internal lab documents that had been obtained fraudulently.
"It's about his having somehow received some information that may have been obtained illegally from a computer in a laboratory in France and there's been no substance to it," Hudson said. "The prosecutor doesn't want to push it but the judge disagreed. By making the decision the judge is keeping the case alive.
"[Landis] is annoyed that it has escalated unnecessarily when there's no substance to it. But he's not losing any sleep over it and is focused on the race."
The case is part of a sweeping investigation into computer hacking, triggered by a complaint filed by the Chatenay-Malabry lab denouncing intrusions into its computer system.
The Associated Press has seen judicial documents that say Baker is accused of having asked a consulting firm called Kargus Consultants to hack the lab's computers in order to discredit the doping tests showing Landis doped during the 2006 Tour.
French judicial officials also said Landis "could not fail to be aware" that the internal lab documents he had access to had been obtained fraudulently through hacking.
Landis is to be tried for "receiving in the fraudulous intrusion." A date for the trial has yet to be set.
Information from ESPN.com's Bonnie D. Ford and The Associated Press was used in this report.

The Blue Room (La Chambre bleue)
By Alan Scherstuhl
Such an anomie-filled nothing of a movie that it wouldn't even be a pleasure to savage it. The Trevor of the title (Brent Gorski, who also wrote the screenplay) is trying to break away from his monstrous heroin addict of an ex-boyfriend, Darrell, while preserving a relationship with his difficult besties, Andie (Melissa Searing) and Jake (Jay Brannan), who constantly snipe at him and each other. When Darrell inevitably ODs, the emergency-room doctor turns out to be a hottie named Ephram (Eli Kranski). Ephram and Trevor fall in love, fight, make up, etc. That's pretty much it, aside from a weirdly played HIV scare. Trevor's life is literally empty—he and Andie and Jake careen around L.A., but none of the locales they hit up seem to be inhabited by more than five people. I don't know if director Rosser Goodman had a reason for this other than a lack of money in the budget to hire extras, but the effect is creepy. There's nothing to fill up the 88 minutes of the film except for the idle bitchery spewed by nearly every character. Are there really people out there who are so irredeemably nasty to their friends and lovers, while actually managing to keep them as friends and lovers?

Video shows vapor cloud before refinery fire
RICHMOND, Calif. An internal Chevron Corp. surveillance video shows a towering vapor cloud engulfing an area of its refinery for two minutes before it ignited into a volatile blaze, federal investigators said Tuesday.
U.S. Chemical Safety Board officials said the video shows plant workers getting caught within the cloud shortly before the Aug. 6 blaze. More than a dozen workers managed to narrowly escape serious injury.
"Fortunately those personnel were able to extricate themselves from that cloud," said Don Holmstrom, the lead investigator for the U.S. Chemical Safety Board.
The vapor cloud was estimated to be about 150 to 200 feet high, as tall as the refinery tower. The blaze knocked an important refinery unit offline, reducing the facility's production and sending thousands of nearby residents to hospitals with breathing and eye irritation complaints.
Holmstrom said federal and state investigators were still trying to determine how to safely enter the area where the fire started. They want to examine a failed pipe blamed for the blaze, which Chevron chose not to replace nearly a year ago after an inspection.
Still, on Tuesday the charred crude unit was too hazardous to enter because of fire damage to structural beams and ongoing hydrocarbon leaks.
"There are one or more than one of these steel beams that have been compromised by the fire," said Daniel Horowitz, the chemical board's managing director, said. "The collapse of that structure is a risk we and others are unwilling to take so we can only approach (to about 10 feet) from the pipe."
Investigators said that distance is still too far for them to be able to make any visual judgments about how the pipe failed.
In addition to beams that were melted by the hot fire, the area is also being compromised by at least two small hydrocarbon leaks. The leaks pose a possible health concern for investigators, and have required them to strap on respirators when entering the area.
Investigators said the small leaks were not a danger to the nearby community, just to people working in the immediate area.
Horowitz said his team is meeting with Chevron Wednesday to determine how those leaks can be stopped. Currently, the company is spraying water on the leaks to ensure they don't catch fire.
The delays are worsening prospects for Chevron's ability to get the important unit back up and running. Horowitz said it would likely be three-to-four weeks before the damaged pipe can be removed for forensic testing.
The conflagration destroyed an area of the refinery that produces a large amount of the gasoline that satisfies California's clean-air regulations, which are the toughest in the nation.
Other parts of the refinery, which supplies 16 percent of California's daily gas consumption, are still producing fuels.
But the refinery's reduced output has sent state gas prices rising higher than normal, analyst said. The average price for a gallon of regular on Tuesday in California was $4.09, up from $3.86 last Tuesday.
A key target of the federal investigation is looking at why Chevron had not replaced the decades-old pipe after an inspection last November.

"We used these announcements for an elderly aunt who we had to move into assisted living. We wanted something cheerful and this fit the bill: so bright and happy! Since we were on a budget, I loved that you could "downgrade" to a straight edge and eliminate any extra costs; but I thought all of the edging options looked great. I also liked that the text was 100% customizable. These arrived faster than I expected and were the usual good quality card stock. I highly recommend."
"The website was easy to use and the quality of the product is superb! Paper is sturdy, colors are vibrant and the print is clear and concise. Delivery was exceptional! I would recommend this product and I will be ordering more products from Tiny Prints!!"
"This card was perfect for me to send to friends as I moved from a small town to a large city. I loved the design reviewer option and my order arrived in a much quicker time period than predicted. Thanks so much. I plan to use Tiny Prints again."
"The bluish background color had a more retro feel when I received it, but it looked great. Have had nice feedback from friends who received it."

In the Bihar issue, Bench applies principles laid down in Bommai case
If Governor's satisfaction is mala fide, court can examine it Centre's claim of privilege rejected For the first time, letters were made public
New Delhi: In holding unconstitutional last year's dissolution of the Bihar Assembly, the Supreme Court has applied the principles laid down in the Bommai case that the Governor's report could be judicially scrutinised and that there could be no absolute immunity to a Governor from court proceedings.
The majority judgment by a Bench headed by Chief Justice Y.K. Sabharwal held that "if the satisfaction [of the Governor to recommend dissolution] is mala fide or is based on wholly extraneous or irrelevant grounds, the court would have the jurisdiction to examine it."
The Bench said: "The immunity granted under Article 361 does not mean that in the absence of Governor [as a party since no notice was issued to Mr. Buta Singh], the grounds of mala fide or [the action] being ultra vires would not be examined by the court." It said, "the action which results in preventing a political party from staking claim to form a government after election, on such fanciful assumptions, if allowed to stand, would be destructive of the democratic fabric."
The court rejected the Centre's claim of privilege for the Governor's report and the Government made public the two reports sent by Governor Buta Singh on April 27 and May 21, 2005 recommending dissolution of the Assembly. These letters faxed to the President, who was in Moscow, formed the basis for dissolving the House on May 23.
Though letters of the Governor were judicially scrutinised in the past, it is the first time copies were made public in the Bihar episode.

Looking into the very very small problem of the power draw still, might add an external regulator to crank the voltage up to 16V or 17V and a different regulator to keep the rest of the car at 13.8 while running the compressors, it might help to reduce the amperage draw by enough. The other option is sizing out a good size capacitor to hold the correct amount of power for one full 40 second compressor cycle so that the battery stays charged, essentially like adding another battery but i can easily hide it in the side of the trunk in the CD changer place
In other news the trunk is ALMOST finished, just one more panel to make. I ran out of MDF yesterday
Why not hide a deka or another similar small battery in the back somewhere? This would be an easy solution.
damn, didn't know you had flakes on the way. They look great on pg.
trunks looking great
looks great! nice build!
Looks get Sean! Really liking the fitment of the new wheels.
Figure out what the problem was with the compressors and why i couldn't run all 3 at idle.....
- When i bought the car it had a big motomaster battery in it, too big for the box and very close to my retrofits
- Did not like it so when i swapped out the alternator we swapped out the battery as well to my OEM battery from my old jetta (battery sitting on concrete garage floor for 8 months during winter without a charge)
You kinda see what happened here....the old OEM battery **** the bed completely last week. Swapped out the battery to the motomaster one and all 3 comps can run at idle.
I'm dumb
But at least it is fixed
Emptied water traps and tanks today. Water results below
Water trap 1: 1/2 full
3 gallon tank: ~25 tbsp in the bottom (3 second flow through a 1/4" barb)
Water trap 2: zero water

Water trap 3: zero water
I think the combination will prevent any water from screwing up the system in the winters

You can buy home pregnancy test kits
at the drugstore or grocery store and on the Internet. You don't need a prescription.
test kits generally have plastic dipsticks or test strips and instructions that
explain how to do the test. Some kits have a urine collection cup and a
dipstick that you dip in urine. Midstream kits have a test strip that you hold
in your stream of urine for several seconds. All kits tell you to wait a
specific amount of time before reading the results.
Home pregnancy kits can be used on
the first day of a missed menstrual period. But the test results are more
accurate if you wait a few days longer. If you do the test as soon as you have
missed a period and the results show you are not pregnant (negative results),
repeat the test in 1 week if your menstrual period has not started, or have a
pregnancy test done at your doctor's office or a clinic.
For any home test, you should
follow some general guidelines:

After regenerating your middlekit classes and re-creating the database, make sure you also restart the appserver, so that it picks up the change (just guessing that this might be your problem). You may want to snoop around in your Middle/GeneratedSQL directory (which contains the SQL for creating the schema) and the Middle/GeneratedPy (which contains the base classes for your Middle classes), too, to ensure that everything is as you expected. It looks like something is just out-of-sync. Good luck, Jason

Installation Instructions
This is a good vanity. Well made and well priced, I think. I bought from this site because it just looks more professional than a lot of them, and I was right. It was pretty easy - I just ordered online, received a confirmation, then a shipping confirmation and about 3 days later there it was! Well boxed, etc. No complaints. I didn't give it 5 stars because it's not WOW!! but it is nice for the money.
This design is very chick and modern. We are remodeling our Master Bath and I have been looking for such a vanity for months and finally found it here on line. [...] I was quite impressed. I held my breath as we opened the box and WOW was I surprised as to how beautiful this vanity really is. The picture does not do it justice. The thick glass top is georgeous and the vanity itself is very well made. My husband, who was skeptical about ordering anything like this on line without seeing it first, was very impressed with the construction and workmanship.
The 24" Charlton is, for the price, surprisingly solid and made well.
the Charlton looks great and it was just the right size. be careful that you don't get a lowspout faucet.
the vanity is pretty and made well but there is not much counter space to speak of. the product was on display and in stock.
the vanity is too narrow for this big vessel sink. the quality seems good and the glass is thick though.
