Traveling Desk (Escritorio)
The inside lid of this Bolivian escritorio features many themes and motifs inspired by medieval and Renaissance European models—Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, lions, stags, unicorns, and dragons. The only indication of the escritorio's New World origins is found on the desk's drop front: a scene of a man in an Andean tunic being trampled by a bull as a darker-skinned man looks on. By commissioning this detail, the original owner may have wanted to communicate the viceroyalty's diverse population and imposed socio-racial hierarchy.
The stunning workmanship of this escritorio's wood inlay and its expensive materials distinguish the object as a luxury possession.
La tapa interior de este escritorio boliviano destaca muchos de los temas y adornos inspirados en modelos de la Europa medieval y renacentista—Adán y Eva en el Jardín del Edén, leones, ciervos, unicornios y dragones. La única indicación de que el escritorio la procede del Nuevo Mundo se encuentra en la tapa frontal abatible: una escena de un hombre con túnica andina siendo pisoteado por un toro mientras un hombre de piel más oscura lo observa. Al encargar este detalle, el propietario original pudo haber querido comunicar la diversidad de la población en el virreinato y la jerarquía socio-racial imperante.
La impresionante habilidad en el trabajo de la taracea de madera de este escritorio y sus costosos materiales distinguen a este objeto como una posesión de lujo.

How to find and profit from a mentor
Sometimes, it pays to ask for a little help.
While some may view asking for assistance or guidance as a weakness, experts say seeking out a professional mentor is a decision that can pay huge dividends for both parties.
Creating and maintaining those relationships isn't always easy, but there are several strategies and tips to help individuals find and profit from a mentor.
Bonika Wilson, of Birmingham's Wilson Capital Management, is one example of an executive who has benefited from having a mentor.
As she noted in a column earlier this year, Wilson said recognizing the need for a mentor is a sign of professional strength.
To develop a successful mentoring relationship, she said there are several steps to take. She said identifying and clarifying the expectations of a mentor is critical. Another key is ensuring that confidentiality will be exercised on both sides of the relationship. She suggests choosing a mentor of a different race, gender and age group.
Wilson said it's important to focus on someone who is at your manager's level or above, particularly if they are in the same company.
"As managers think about succession planning, they often lean to whom they know and trust," she said. "The mentoring relationship is a safe environment to showcase your talents, express your long-term goals and get feedback from someone who can ultimately help you navigate through the company."
Lois Zachary, president of Leadership Development Services, is the author of three books that focus on mentoring, including, "The Mentor's Guide: Creating a Mentoring Culture."
Experts say that mentoring can make a meaningful impact on businesses of all sizes, and it's an area more businesses are investing in.

The starter is probably the last thing on your mind when you're building a trick new engine. You've usually got visions of horsepower dancing in your head, and as long as the starter turns the motor over the first time, that'll be good enough. We're not here to tell you that there's horsepower to be made with a trick new starter, but it's pretty hard to make any power at all if your engine won't crank. There are not many things more embarrassing on cruise night than having your starter scream bloody murder in protest of your turning the key. Or just think how ashamed you'd be if after hours of boasting about how bad your ride is compared to all the junk around town, you turn the key only to hear your engine go "ggrrr-grrrr-grrrrrrr-click." What's the deal? The deal is that just because your starter was able to crank your old engine that doesn't mean it'll hold up behind the new one.
Tuning changes can also affect starters. Have you ever advanced the timing to the point just under detonation and made the quickest run in history? But the car wouldn't start afterwards? That's because ignition advance, especially in a car with a locked-out distributor, can make starting difficult. Too much initial advance will fire the mixture when the piston is moving up the bore under compression. That's fine at high rpm but won't make it easy to start. MSD Ignition offers a Start Retard box that is adjustable to retard the timing only when the engine is cranking. Once the engine fires, it reverts back to its normal curve.
Starter noise is another common, but slightly more difficult, problem to cure. Typically, a new starter will make noise when it's positioned too close to the ring gear on the flexplate or flywheel. Installing thin, steel shims between the block and starter is the method to eliminate the noise.
Another problem that may cause starter noise is an out-of-round flexplate. This happens most often with the thin, low-dollar flexplates that you see advertised in the Sunday paper. The only cure for this problem is to purchase a high-quality (read: more expensive) flexplate.
To get the low-down on starters and related technology, we recently visited IMI High Torque Performance where we got a lesson in proper engagement.
Some pinion gears will overextend, and the back of the gear will rub on the ring gear. IMI offers a circular starter shim to move its starter away approximately 0.075 inch. If your starter is experiencing the same problem, perhaps you could fabricate a similar shim to cure it.

My response to another thread got me thinking about perpendicalell relationship between Terry Pratchett and Christopher Moore.
The most glaring similarity is that their protagonists tend to be beta males, with some exceptions. As an American I find it refreshing. It is something American authors are usually bad at.
They both like to have a lot of dufus characters even though Moore mispells 'dufus'.
Now the contrast that justifies my neologism above. Their worlds are mirror images of each other. Pratchett places modern sensibilities in a fantasy world where Moore brings fantasy elements into ours.
Just some random thoughts.

Easy to apply with a low-stipple finish, Cashmere is the epitome of smooth.
Cashmere is a unique, ultra-smooth, high-hiding interior latex paint engineered primarily for residential repaint work. The non-sticky application goes on like butter, providing an exclusive, silky, high-end finish in flat enamel or low or medium lustre that your customers will really notice and truly appreciate. And thanks to its great coverage and scrubable sheen, it's easy to maintain.
What sets Cashmere apart:
- Rich finish. Because of its easy flow and leveling quality, Cashmere releases from the brush and roller with limited drag, resulting in a smooth, flawless finish.
- Great durability. High hide and scrubability make Cashmere perfect for everyday use and a snap to maintain.
- Room-enhancing sheen. A paint's sheen — a measurement of its light-reflecting abilities — has a dramatic effect on the overall look of an interior room. Cashmere is available in flat enamel and low- and medium-lustre sheens, making it perfect for accommodating every room type and look your customer is trying to achieve.

It may have been a grey, rainy day in NYC this past Saturday but that didn't stop Via Audio from packing the MOSCOT Orchard Street Gallery with fans. The band got the crowd moving with their upbeat electro pop sound, making everyone quickly forget just how treacherous a day it was outside. Thanks Via Audio for a fantastic show!

SBA Buffalo 2013 Efforts Translate into Big Impact for Local Small Business
M&T Bank Remains on Top for 19th Consecutive Year BUFFALO, NY--- The Buffalo District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) closed out their fiscal year on September 30 and approved 699 7(a) and 504 loans totaling $142 million to small businesses in its 14 county service area*. Overall, the district noted an 8 percent increase in numbers and a mind-blowing 43 percent increase in dollars. For the nineteenth consecutive year M & T Bank won the annual competition for the highest SBA 7(a) volume by dollar value for the SBA's Buffalo District Office. This is an 83 percent increase over fiscal year 2012. M&T also recaptured first place in terms of the number of loans. M & T Bank approved 260 loans both in Buffalo and Rochester with an aggregate value of over $44 million. Increased lending from First Niagara Bank and Rochester based Canandaigua National Bank greatly assisted the District in its efforts to meet Agency goals. The District's lending activities assisted nearly 600 separate businesses that supported over 2100 jobs in our service area including 838 newly created positions directly resulting from the SBA's assistance. Loan approvals supported 255 new businesses**. The portfolio of new loan approvals included 124 women-owned businesses for a 31 percent increase in numbers, 38 loan approvals for veteran-owned small business which remained stable and 62 loan approvals to minority-owned businesses for a 30 percent increase in numbers. "This is the first time in a long time since the recession that we did not offer any incentives to our lenders to utilize our programs," said District Director Franklin J. Sciortino of the local office. "When one considers the general economic conditions and uncertainty of small businesses, we are very pleased to see our lending volume remain steady," he added. "We owe these accomplishments to our partnership with our local banking community." Each year, SBA reviews certain fees payable to SBA by 7(a) participating lenders, Certified Development Companies, and borrowers to determine if any of those fees need to be adjusted to cover estimated subsidy costs of the 7(a) and 504 loan programs. Therefore, SBA has announced a reduction in the fiscal year 2014 yearly fee (also known as the on-going guaranty fee or the "annual service fee") for all 7(a) loans, and a reduction in the upfront guaranty fee for all 7(a) loans in the amount of $150,000 or less. Additionally, there are no changes to fees for 504 loans approved during FY 2014. "We are also very pleased with the increase in 504 loan approvals this year," Sciortino adds. "This fixed asset financing program also saw an increase in lending with 41 approvals for over $21 million. These projects alone support 1,044 local jobs." "We saw a dramatic increase in the dollars lent to small businesses through our programs this past year. We are hopeful the elimination of fees for both our lenders and small businesses on loans $150,000 and less will help us build on this momentum," said Sciortino. To summarize the SBA's impact, Sciortino adds, "SBA is proud to be able to provide assistance to small businesses in the district and help provide economic stability and growth to our community through the many entrepreneurs we help." *The Buffalo District Office of the Small Business Administration serves the fourteen (14) western most counties of New York State, which includes Erie, Niagara, Chautauqua, Cattaraugus, Wyoming, Orleans, Genesee, Alleghany, Monroe, Livingston, Wayne, Seneca, Yates and Ontario counties. **New Businesses are defined as establishments 2 years old and less.

BONIFAY — Local resident and store owner Lori Paterson came before the Bonifay City Council during their regularly scheduled meeting on Monday to address concerns with the previous rodeo and request that preparations be made for the upcoming rodeo, especially in regards to manure.
"I understand that the city has ordinances against having horses on the streets," said Paterson. "This is a health hazard and it's appalling how the city deals with the manure. We have children who go out and play on the football field who get welts and have medical conditions that are aggravated by the manure."
Paterson then went into photos of post-rodeo clean up.
"There's grease imbedded in the sidewalks bringing ants right in front of our shops," said Paterson. "There's melted candy and cigarette butts. I've been providing trashcans and trash bags, but that's not my job."
She then went into the cigarette butts clogging the flag holders on the sidewalk, making it difficult to keep the American flags from touching the ground or falling out during occasions they're put out, like Memorial Day and the Fourth of July.
"What's the point in having these ordinances if they aren't enforced," said Paterson. "It's a load of manure."
After she brought out a petition of 150 signatures, the council Paterson asked what the petition was requesting that the council do.
"Provide clean up, adequate garbage cans and toilets," said Paterson. "I'm a shop owner, a business person, a taxpayer and this isn't right. It's not my job to clean up after this event or provide toilets."
Mayor Lawrence Cloud told Paterson that he, as a shop owner on Main Street, sympathized with her plight and assured her that the council will look into ways of possibly improving this year's rodeo maintenance and clean up.
A few other residents came before the council about issues with a broken window at the old Padgett Drugs store on Main Street and a store with no roof, no door and mold growing on the inside.
Cloud assured them that a letter will be written to the owner of the old Padgett Drugs store in regards to the safety issue and that the city may get the health department involved with the building that's growing mold.
"We'll take care of that," said Cloud.
The council agreed with member Richard Woodham's request that something needs to be done about abandoned cars throughout the city.
"It's one thing to leave them there for 30 days, but for six months?" asked Woodham. "Something's got to be done."
The council approved of the final reading of Ordinance 383 for the city's 2012-13 Budget.
The next regularly scheduled city council meeting is set for 6 p.m. on Oct. 8 at the Bonifay City Hall.

The Port of Port St. Joe is attracting interest from potential clients.
With Bank of Montreal continuing to "shake the bushes" in the private sector, port staff entertained a possible client, with a potential for at least 100 "high-paying" jobs, in the past two weeks.
Port director Tommy Pitts told the Port Authority board last week that Economic Development Council/Chamber of Commerce director Barry Sellers has brought to the port a project with the potential for providing growth long sought by the Port of Port St. Joe.
The client has requested a confidentiality agreement as negotiations move ahead but Sellers and Pitts provided initial details.
"The only thing we are allowed to say is they are in the business of manufacturing technologically advanced items," Pitts said.
Pitts said the company would be coming in with a minimum of 110 "well-paying" jobs with a growth potential to expand that number two and three times.
"It's looking good," Sellers said. "There is a potential for growth."
The company is a new one, Pitts said, but Sellers added that the officers in the company have previous experience in the industry and are lining up financing at this point.
"I've very excited," Pitts said. "(Sellers) has been very active."
Sellers added, "We are getting calls every day."
Dredging and rail
Jorge Gonzalez, senior vice president for the St. Joe Company, said the company is "getting the process" started with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for dredging of the shipping channel adjacent to the old mill site.
Dredging the channel would provide additional opportunities to grow the port and was seen as an important step in the process by Jeff Holt with the Bank of Montreal during his visit to the port late last year.
Gonzalez added that the Bank of Montreal continues to actively work in the private sector to identify potential clients.
"They continue to shake the bushes," Gonzalez said. "There is no specific update, but they are very actively identifying potential clients."
The market analysis by the Bank of Montreal will be incorporated within the port master plan currently being updated, Pitts said.
Pitts said the pace of the update would be picking up in the next few weeks.
A Florida Department of Transportation grant of $5 million has been earmarked for improvements to the Genessee-Wyoming rail line between Port St. Joe and Chattahoochee, Gonzalez said, with the final milestone before the funding is released a joint rail planning agreement.
Gonzalez said that document is close to being executed and said he was confident it would be executed soon.
Rail access and dredging have been identified as keys to unlocking the port's potential.
The G-W railroad has indicated it will be a 12 month project to improve the lines along the approximately 90-mile stretch. Gonzalez said the northern 40 miles or so are in good shape, but work must be completed on bridges over the span, including that over the Apalachicola River.
"The rail is in great shape, the problem is a couple of bridges," Gonzalez said.
RESTORE project
The Port Authority submitted by Tuesday's deadline a pre-proposal to the county RESTORE Committee, seeking $5 million to help satisfy a mortgage, with interest and penalties, held by Capital City Bank on the parcel of port property facing the Intracoastal Canal.
The Port Authority received several million dollars in state and federal grants to improve that property, including constructing a bulkhead and making uplands improvements.
Capital City Bank has filed to foreclose on the property and the Port Authority has responded with a legal response. Capital City Bank is seeking a summary judgment in its favor to force foreclosure, and potentially a sale, on the property but a judicial decision has yet to be made.
The Port Authority provided several options for receiving the money.
"Whatever path that gets us to preserving this as a public asset is the goal," said board member Patrick Jones. "We need to emphasize the public asset aspect as opposed to this becoming a private asset for who knows what use."
Workforce needs
Loretta Costin, director of Gulf Coast State College's Gulf/Franklin campus, said the night welding class created in collaboration with Gulf District Schools has 17 students and the class will begin again in February once that class graduates.
Costin said the college is exploring all possibilities for assisting in addressing workforce needs as tenants begin arriving at the Port of Port St. Joe.
"The welding class is a short-term solution, but we are also looking at more long-term solutions, up to and including renting a facility to bring in more instructors and provide more course options," Costin said. "We want to be a position to ramp that up when the need arises."
Gonzalez said workforce development and addressing workforce needs is an issue across the country and having the Gulf/Franklin Center was essential.
"It is a challenge everywhere," Gonzalez said. "Having partnerships like that is huge, huge."

In the face of modern technology which continues to blow our minds with OEM quality and amazing custom cars, there is still something to be said about authenticity. Sure, tons of companies create super nice fiberglass replicas of some of the coolest Detroit metal to ever roll across Route 66; but at the end of the day, they're still just a copy of the real thing. Featured in the October 2010 issue of Street Rodder Magazine, this classic 1930 Ford coupe is a REAL DEAL, real steel street rod which combines the core strengths of its originality with a modern vision and top notch components. It is, by far, the nicest all steel street rod we've ever offered, and with its killer stroker motor, sophisticated suspension and completely custom interior, it'll chew up replicas on the street just as easily as it does on the show field. Are you one of those discerning gearheads who wants the excellent driving experience of modern street rod technology AND the authenticity of a real antique car? This world class Ford coupe is the opportunity you've been waiting for!
This hot coupes smooth and solid steel body began life as a run-of-the-mill 1930 Ford Model A that would stay in the hands of its original buyer for almost 76 years. When the new owner took possession, he promptly shipped it to Dragone Classic Motorcars in Bridgeport, Connecticut where it underwent a celebrity style restoration that totaled $96K in parts alone. Once the classic lines were laser straight, a spectacular coat of Mercedes-Benz Glasurit Dark Gray Metallic urethane was buried in a glossy and wet looking clearcoat shell and buffed to a dynamic shine. Today, five years and 2,600 hours of labor later, the car displays solid vertical panels and a perfectly aligned profile which looks absolutely fantastic under its chameleon paint. And with virtually no imperfections, it's a banner show piece that celebrates both 82 years of carefully calculated care by serious car guys and the integrity of Ford's high quality products.
Everything on this 1930 Ford is exceptionally well-done. It mixes just the right amount of pre-war charm with high quality 21st century street rod details to produce gawking fans and create a lasting impression. At the front of the car, body-matched frame horns hold a polished spreader, which is complete with LED turn signals, below a correct stainless grille, a chrome headlight bar and two great looking 1932 Ford King Bee SS headlights. Behind that grille, stainless brace bars parallel full length Brookville fenders; and a chrome trimmed Brookville cowl anchors a like-new tilt windshield between chrome rearview mirrors and a small metal visor. At the top of the car, a steel ribbed roof insert hangs dark smoked glass above a Brookville decklid and lower lid panel. And at the back of the car, a familiar billet aluminum tag bracket is centered between 1950 Pontiac blue dot tail lights and a second polished spreader bar. The profile of the car combines the clean and simple look that is typical of classic fenderless hot rods with a number of traditional touches which add both style and character. Correct chrome door handles and correct bear claw hinges are present on the doors, and stylish chrome running boards seamlessly bridge the original front and rear fenders. Overall, this classic Ford street rod is in outstanding physical condition; and its top notch build integrates the greatest attributes of both old and new into a single, unifying vision which is the product of some of the best design and construction techniques in the hobby.
Take a gander behind the original stainless grille and you'll find out exactly where this Fords tradition ends and its muscle begins. Professionally built and dyno tuned by Smeding Performance in Rancho Cordova, California this coupes 383 cubic inch extreme stroker V8 creates a stout 450 horsepower and 470 lb./ft. of dust swirling torque! At the top of the engine, four Demon 98 series carburetors, which receive fuel through a braided fuel line, blue AN fittings, a fluid filled Holley fuel pressure gauge and a chrome Edelbrock mechanical fuel pump, prop trick Mooneyes finned air cleaners above a polished Barry Grant Quadra-Deuce induction. At the sides of that Barry Grant induction, polished Edelbrock Performer RPM heads, which have been fitted with 2.02 and 1.60 stainless valves and capped with finned and polished valve covers, sit above full floating hypereutectic 9.8 to 1 pistons and high strength 5140 forged steel connecting rods. Those rods are turned by a 4340 forged steel crank which has been micro polished to perfection, and those pistons create compression thanks to a custom ground hydraulic roller camshaft with a .510/.521 lift. Fire is supplied by an MSD Pro-Billet distributor which sends spark from an MSD Blaster SS coil and MSD 6A ignition system to Accel Extreme 9000 Ferro-Spiral wires. And cooling is provided by a Walker 32 style Z-series radiator which sends water past a Walker low profile electric fan and shroud to bright blue flex hose and a chrome water pump. At the front of the block, a Billet Specialties Tru Trac serpentine system spins a trick 140 amp billet aluminum alternator; and at the sides of the block, Sanderson ceramic coated shorty headers send spent gases into a great sounding exhaust system. As with its fully detailed exterior panels, nothing was missed in the engine bay of this sharp '30 Ford. The smooth and clean small block engine perfectly matches the car's Mercedes gray fenders. And show worthy ancillary items such as aluminum red wire looms, chrome motor mounts, a billet overflow tank and a polished stainless firewall add a nice finished look.
Underneath this impressive car, a custom, completely polished independent front suspension and a completely polished four link rear suspension utilize adjustable coil overs at each corner and anti-roll bars at each end, to provide a thoroughly modern ride and razor sharp handling characteristics. At the center of that custom suspension, a fresh TCI Auto Street Fighter Turbo-Hydramatic 400 3-speed automatic, which is equipped with a TCI Auto 3000/3400 Street Fighter torque converter and a finned pan and flywheel cover, sends power to a Currie nine inch rear end which carries stout 31 spline axles and ground pounding 3.55 gears. All that excellent metal is bolted to a Total Cost Involved frame which is painted metallic blue and sandwiched between stainless hardware and fresh Bitchin floor pans. Quick stops are provided by a frame mounted Summit Racing vacuum booster which pushes fluid through stainless AN lines to polished Wilwood Hi-Tech four piston calipers and giant 12 inch rotors. And a killer soundtrack is provided by a 2.5 inch true dual exhaust system which runs from the coated shorty headers to stainless Magnaflow mufflers and mandrel bent side pipes. At the corners of the car, 15 inch Coker powder coated smoothies spin 6.70-15 front and 8.20-15 rear Firestone 2.25 whitewall tires around stainless trim rings and chrome lug nuts. And everything from this hot rod Ford's C.W. Moss Oak reinforced floor pan to its chrome oil pan is exceptionally clean, completely detailed for show and ready to hit the road tomorrow.
Take a look inside the car and you'll find a spectacular looking leather interior that was professionally installed by Dragone Classic Motorcars in Bridgeport, Connecticut. At the center of the car, a plush Wise Guys leather bench seat is firm, provides good support and features sturdy two-point seatbelts. And at the sides of the car, custom leather door panels, which are equipped with billet aluminum window cranks, billet aluminum door pulls, chrome door handles and integrated map pockets, hang between custom leather side panels. Below the seat, cool Mr. Horsepower floor mats ride next to a billet accelerator pedal, a chrome emergency brake handle and a stainless Gennie Commander Lo-stick shifter with a flame Lucite shift knob. And in front of the seat, the cars original body-matched dash hangs a full set of Classic Instruments Mooneyes gauges below stylish billet trim, a billet rearview mirror and a custom leather headliner. In front of the driver, a polished Mark IV steering wheel rides on a polished Ididit steering column; and behind the cockpit, a completely upholstered trunk integrates an RCI 15 gallon lightweight aluminum fuel cell behind a billet trimmed Optima battery and a Moroso master kill switch.
Included with the sale of this all metal Ford is a copy of the cars original title, all of its books and manuals, and a stack of build receipts which total $150K.
You really can't ask for a better street rod than this 1930 Ford. With an unbeatable combination of authentic good looks and modern hot rod technology, it's the perfect car for any enthusiast who wants a top-notch build without spending two years and six figures achieving it. If you're in the market for an immaculate show stopper that features the best of everything, don't let the opportunity to own this awesome, all steel coupe pass you by!

EGLIN AFB — On June 4, 1942, two American men were on opposite ends of a battlefield.
Navy Lt. Commander Lance E. Massey, flying high over the Pacific, was leading a group of 12 torpedo planes under heavy fire from the Japanese military.
Far below in the bowels of the USS Yorktown, the aircraft carrier Massey took off from, Navy Chief Watertender Charles Kleinsmith was fighting hard to keep his ship afloat after it was struck by a Japanese bomb.
Both men, in their 30s, were killed, but their lives were not lost in vain.
The Americans delivered a crushing blow to the Japanese at the Battle of Midway that put them well on their way to victory six months after Pearl Harbor.
On Thursday, members of the Navy's VFA-101 Squadron, the branch's first F-35 unit, gathered at Eglin Air Force Base to remember one of the most significant battles in naval history and the bravery of the men who fought in it.
"The Navy continues throughout the years to celebrate the Battle of Midway because it is such a distinct and important part of our legacy," said Capt. Lance Massey, grandson of the Massey who was killed at Midway and commander of the 33rd Fighter Wing's maintenance group at Eglin.
Commander David Dorn, the executive officer of the VFA-101 maintenance group and the great-nephew of Kleinsmith, was also at the ceremony.
After breaking the Japanese military's code and learning of their plans to lure the Americans into a trap at Midway Island, the United States struck out early.
On the morning of June 4, torpedo squadrons took off from aircraft carriers aimed at destroying the Japanese fleet.
The first two squadrons were almost all shot down.
"They were badly outnumbered and outmatched," Dorn said.
Despite that, Massey's crew of 12 planes took off. Ten were shot down, including Massey's.
However, they lured the Japanese planes lower in the sky and allowed three American dive bombers to swoop in and destroy three of the four Japanese aircraft carriers as they were preparing to launch a massive attack.
"Those few minutes ended any realistic hope of Japanese victory at the Battle of Midway," Dorn said.
About 80 percent of the aviators who flew that day were killed.
Massey said he has always been impressed by the courage those men displayed.
"They knew there was a good chance they weren't going to come back and they went anyway," he said.
During the battle, the Japanese dropped a 500-pound bomb on the USS Yorktown. It took out five of the carrier's six boilers and nearly stopped the ship in its tracks.
Kleinsmith, 38, who had been promoted to chief watertender just three days before the battle, hunkered down at the only operating boiler with his six-man crew and fought to keep the ship moving despite broken and red-hot boiler casings, noxious fumes and imminent explosion.
Their work gave sailors time to repair what boilers they could and kept the ship moving fast enough to launch another squadron of planes to continue the battle.
Eventually, the ship was struck again and sunk.
"The sailors kept the ship alive long enough to keep fighting and save lives of most of the crew," Dorn said. "If the ship was just a sitting duck it probably would have been annihilated when the second strike came through."
Dorn said the anniversary of the battle is a good time to reflect with pride on the service of his great uncle and all the men who fought.
"They faced a very uncertain future and they went into that battle thinking that probably most of them wouldn't come back and they probably wouldn't win because they were hopelessly outnumbered," he said. "It's that spirit I want to celebrate, that desire to keep going, to never quit, whether you are being attacked or doing the attacking."
Massey and Kleinsmith were posthumously awarded the Navy Cross.

You can probably use /etc/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/01ifupdown (which was installed on my system by default) as reference. Using ifup to detect the status of eth2 seems like the right way to do it. You can then inform NetworkManager to connect to your VPN through the command-line client, nmcli. Is that enough to get you started?
Posted 11 March 2013 - 23:35
# Bring our Network Manager connection up. sub nm_con_up { my $myiface; # Interface from $conf to bring up. my $mytimeout; # Timeout from $conf to pass to nmcli. $myiface = $conf->iface; $mytimeout = $conf->timeout; @towt = qx[nmcli con up uuid ${NM_UUID} iface ${myiface} --timeout ${mytimeout} 2>&1]; $towt[0] =~ /Error: Unknown connection: ${NM_UUID}/i and die "Our profile is not registered with Network Manager!\n"; $towt[0] =~ /[E|e]rror[.]*[T|t]imeout[.]*[E|e]xpired[.]*/ and return 0; return 1; } # Take our Network Manager connection down. sub nm_con_down { my $myiface; # Interface from $conf to bring up. my @status; # Network Manager status output. my $is_down; # Is the interface down? $myiface = $conf->iface; @status = qx[nmcli con status 2>&1]; $is_down = 0; for my $elem (@status) { if ($elem =~ /${NM_UUID}/) { @towt = qx[nmcli con down uuid ${NM_UUID} 2>&1]; $is_down = 1; } elsif ($elem =~ /${myiface}/) { my @tokens; # Tokenized version of the element. my $myuuid; # UUID associated with $myiface. @tokens = split(/[ ]+/, $elem); foreach my $token (@tokens) { if ($token =~ /[a-f0-9]{8}[-]([a-f0-9]{4}[-]){3}[a-f0-9]{12}/) { $myuuid = $token; last; } } @towt = qx[nmcli con down uuid ${myuuid} 2>&1]; $is_down = 1; } } die "Network connection could not be taken down!\n" unless $is_down == 1; }
Posted 12 March 2013 - 08:31
Will the UUID always be the same??? If so, I think I may be able to do it with what you said before...
Your OpenVPN connection is not a device; that's why it doesn't show up using nmcli dev. Try something like this: nmcli con up c9373060-1fc6-40af-8788-e74ecf2d44c1 iface eth2
Posted 12 March 2013 - 14:08
Posted 13 March 2013 - 07:59
This might be a stupid questions but is UUID sensitive? I know MAC addresses should not be posted just like public IPs.....but I have no idea what this UUID is....
The UUID will not change unless you delete and recreate the connection in NetworkManager. You can use nmcli con list to view the UUIDs of the connections you have created.
From what I can tell I think you had the right idea before. Don't modify your OpenVPN config in if-up.d; create a new file in dispatcher.d instead.

For Brent Casteel, resurrecting an old Chevrolet is nothing new. Brent has had two cars grace the pages of Super Chevy magazine, one being his '65 Bel Air in the September 2005 issue. His other ride, a '76 Z06-powered Camaro, not only hit the pages of the magazine, but was also emblazoned in all its glory on the cover.
When it came to this '64 Chevelle SS, things were different. The A-body wouldn't be for him, but for his 12-year-old son, Evan, to enjoy later on down the road. The thing is, not only would the Chevelle be an effort in rescuing a decrepit hulk of classic American iron, but also an exercise in teaching the finer points of resurrecting said car. Consider it Car Resurrection 101.
"My son, Evan, is in the National Honor Society, and in a sense, this car is his reward," Brent states. "We built this car for Evan to teach him what goes into a build like this, and the techniques of welding, wiring, and everything else that goes along with it."
When Brent and Evan picked up the Chevelle it was, by Brent's own admission, in pretty sad shape. The car was sitting in a neighbor's driveway, and it wasn't long before the father and son duo transported the Chevelle back to the Casteel family home for lots of tender loving care.
"When we picked up the car, you could see that 23 years of exposure had taken its toll on it," Brent explains. "We had to contend with mold, rust, and a liquor store. As we stripped the car, we counted three cases of beer, two gallons of liquor, and a bottle of wine--all unopened."
The Chevelle, which was originally a 327-powered Super Sport backed with a four-speed, got a bevy of new body components. When all was said and done, Brent and Evan replaced both quarter-panels, a floor pan, and the trunk pan. As this was going on, the body was removed from the frame, which was then cleaned and painted. Once the cancer was removed from the body, it was set down upon the chassis once again, and then moved over to Stevens Restoration and Refinish, where Roger Stevens laid the Glasstech 2 -inch cowl hood down and then, after applying the primer, slathered the flanks of the Chevelle in Dupont Viper Red and Chrysler Black.
When the bodywork was completed, it came time for father and son to tackle the interior and the driveline portions of the car. "The overall vision of this car was to make it a driver," Brent muses. "I wanted to do the Hot Rod Power Tour and cruise with this car. It was built to be a driver." With that in mind, Brent set out to make the interior of the Chevelle as comfortable as he could, all while retaining the stock flavor. The stock seats were kept, though both were recovered in custom black vinyl. He then fabbed up a set of custom door panels, complete with a later-style SS logo. Digital gauges replaced the vintage '64 analog dials, while a Trim Parts black carpet was laid down as well. Throw in some custom touches to the dashboard, and the interior was looking fine. The thing is, with the car being a driver, Brent wanted to make sure it was comfortable to cruise in. Enter the installation of a front and rear air conditioning system from Hot Rod Air and a thumping stereo system.
With the A/C blowing, Brent and the Casteel crew can jam to their favorite tunes thanks to the Kenwood head unit wired up to an Alpine amplifier, 6 1/2-inch Kenwood speakers up front, 6x9 Kenwoods in the back, and a 10-inch Infinity subwoofer. For those long trips, Brent made sure the Kenwood head unit was compatible for the Sirius satellite radio he installed as well.

I spend quite some time of my life learning about digital technology, how it works and all the great things you can do with it. By now I'm quite handy with computers, I understand how the Internet works, and I own and use multiple devices that allow me to be connected 24/7. This interest for IT differentiates me from many other people my age and as that it gives me certain advantage, for example on the job market.
Lately the term digital natives has popped up a lot and it made me wonder not only who these people are, but also why they have become such a popular topic. Rumors are that once these young generations enter the job market, they will put all the rest of us in the shade. I can see that with the growing importance of technology in almost every market, being savvy in the field can be very convenient. But do they really pose a threat to those, who grew up not knowing what the Internet was?
I looked into this new phenomenon of digital natives and I'd like to share some of my insights with you. And no worries, we don't need to fear the shadow just yet.

Not available in other countries.
Known for her smoky voice and magnetic performances, Mexican-American singer and composer Lila Downs (Oaxaca, México, 1968) has created one of the most singular explorations of Mexican roots music on both sides of the border. By studying folk Mexican rhythms and native languages and blending them with American folk, blues and rock, Downs has created a unique body of work through releases such as La Sandunga (1999), Border (2001), One Blood (2004), Entre Copa y Copa (2006) and Shake Away/Ojo de Culebra (2008)
Now she captivates us with her new release Sins and Miracles (Pecados y Milagros), an exploration of these religious notions in light of modern events, inspired by Downs' experience becoming a new adoptive mother (something she calls "a miracle"), and a contemplation of the meaning of "sin" in the modern world. The music is accompanied by a series of specially-commissioned votive paintings (retablos) by 15 Mexican painters who share the vision of the contemporary world as Lila.
