Plastic Jug Light Fixture

We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.
The project was added to your Craft Projects.
Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Would you ever guess that this DIY light fixture is made from a recycled plastic bottle? The Plastic Jug Light Fixture from Tiffany Threadgould is a neat and eco-friendly project that will really impress your guests. So cheap and so chic!
- 2 sets of chopsticks
- empty gallon jug of vinegar or windshield wiper fluid
- fishing line
- 8 #47 o-rings or small black rubberbands
- hanging lamp (like Hemma from Ikea)
- scissors
- ruler
- hole punch
- tack
- non-permanent marker
- Use your marker to make two lines around the plastic container 1/2 inch from the bottom and 5 1/2 inches from the bottom. Then mark two vertical lines directly across from each other.
- To help pierce your container, use a tack to poke a hole outside the area you marked. Then slip your scissors in through that hole. Cut along the lines you marked. Then wash off any marker.
- Unscrew the bottom disk from the hanging lamp and trace around a scrap from the plastic bottle leftovers. This piece will be sandwiched between the lamp and the screw-on disk. Your lamp will hang from this piece. Cut along the lines you marked, making the center diameter slightly larger than the marked line. Set this piece for step 7.
- Punch a hole in each corner of the plastic panels from step 2.
- Take one panel and slide a pair of chopsticks through the holes. Secure the chopsticks in place by placing rubberbands on each of the ends.
- Cup the second piece of plastic around the bottom of the first; then thread the remaining two chopsticks into the holes of this plastic panel as you did on the other in step 5. Make sure this piece hangs crosswise from the first. Secure in place with rubberbands.
- Cut four 11-inch pieces of fishing line. Tie one piece to each chopstick end on the top panel. Then tie the other ends to the "donut" shape you cut in step 3.
- Slide the "donut" onto the light fixture and screw the light together. Now you're ready to plug in your new creation. This lamp will shed some new light on scrap materials headed for the landfill.

I have been hearing through the local horse grapevine that there is supposed to be a very nice new H/J farm in my area of South Carolina - in the middle of nowhere and about an hour and a half from Charleston, SC, Savannah, GA and Hilton Head, SC but can't seem to find out the name of the barn or location. The word is the owner Kim (not sure this is right) is opening another branch of a farm in Virginia named Forest Grove. I found a website link for a Forrest Grove Stable in VA but it isn't active. Does anyone know anything about a nice new hunter barn opening in Hampton or Allendale Counties in SC or contact information? This is such a rural area it would be great to have a super nice farm opening here!! Thanks!:D

GMC TV Announces Holiday Season Line-Up
Lou (Michelle Morgan) is on the verge of a nervous breakdown as she tries to put the "happy" back in Christmas with an open house and the building of the "perfect" Christmas tree so she doesn't have to think about missing her first Christmas without Peter. When Ty gets an anonymous phone call that an avalanche has trapped a dozen horses and they will starve to death without help, Amy (Amber Marshall) climbs quickly on board to give Ty (Graham Wardle) the assistance he needs in rescuing the horses, but this ends up being a bigger task then they first imagined. An impossible task alone, Amy, Ty, Jack (Shaun Johnston) and Tim (Chris Potter) must convince the community to build bridges instead of burning them and to work together.

FALL 2015 Courses…
IMPORTANT NOTE ON ALL TEXTBOOKS: All textbooks will be available through the college bookstore website. If you order from an outside vendor, please be sure that you order the correct edition of your textbook. The edition number follows the title in the textbook lists below. Which edition you choose DOES make a difference. Your quizzes and exams are keyed to the edition listed. BEWARE: If you find a book that is really cheap, it's probably an outdated edition. The ISBN numbers and pictures on the covers, also noted below, assist in getting the correct edition.
ARTH 101: Survey of Art in Western Europe The Ancient World Deming 105 TTh 9:25-10:40 Syllabus will be posted on Blackboard The first of three introductory courses in the history of western art, this course covers Western European Art from the the Cave through Byzantium and Islam. We analyze painting, sculpture, architecture, manuscript illuminations and decorative arts, endeavoring to place them in the context for which these objects were created, making every effort to understand the art as those who created it intended. Important differences distinguish the various times and places, but vital continuities tie the periods to each other and to our world today. Upon completion of the class, you will be an informed observer of art, with the ability to discuss and write about art in an historical context. Moreover, you will develop your skills in areas of organization, logical thinking, and good writing. Arth 101 is an entry-level, general education course with no prerequisites. Although this is the first of three courses, they do not need to be taken in chronological order. The Art Department offers a bus trip to the National Gallery of Art in Washington. Arth 101, 102, and 103 are required for a major in art history.
REQUIRED TEXT: Stokstad & Cothren. Art History 5th edition, Pearson-Prentice-Hall. ISBN-10: 0205949487 • ISBN-13: 9780205949489. If you own the 4th edition, you may use that one — it will work, although the quizzes are keyed to the 5th edition. Some (not a lot) of the material could be different. Pearson Learning offers a subscription to an online version and an e-book option. the ebook and a new textbook both come with a subscription to MyArtsLab, which offers study guides and videos that I HIGHLY recommend.
Optional: Sylvan Barnet. Writing About Art, ISBN-13: 9780205708253. ISBN numbers do matter!! Click this link or look on Blackboard for an explanation of options for your textbook. ARTH 101 book options-5th ed.
REN 100: Defining the Renaissance: TTh 1:30-2:40 Deming105. Defining the Renaissance provides a survey of the history art, literature,
and science of the period, which extends from c.1300-1650. Activities extend from lectures to field trips, including the National Gallery of Art ($15) and the Blackfriar's Playhouse (one performance free).
REQUIRED TEXTBOOK: Henry M. Sayre. The Humanities: Culture, Continuity and Change, Volume I Plus NEW MyArtsLab — Access Card Package, 3/E©2015 • Pearson • Paper Bound with Access Card, 744 pp. ISBN-10: 0205996205 • ISBN-13: 9780205996209. 1: Be sure you order the 3rd edition and you need only Volume I. Tests will be keyed to that text. (A first and a third edition are also available, so don't buy these) 2. be sure the ISBN matches.
INT 213: Technical Art History Pearce 312 Wed. 6-8:30 PM
Technical Art History is an interdisciplinary approach to the study of works of art that employs scientific and art historical methods. This hands-on course replicates traditional artists' studio practices, introducing students to a variety of artistic media, methods, and analytic tools to enable them to consider how materials and techniques influenced creative practices. It also introduces them to how technical studies might inform art historical research, art conservation, and connoisseurship.
Taught by Dr. Sara James and Dr. Lundy Pentz
The course is an honors course, but we would make exceptions for strong art history and studio art students. Contact Dr. James for further information.

You've heard it since April 13, when the 2010 first-round draft pick acquired from the Maple Leafs in the Phil Kessel deal held up in the lottery to be the second overall choice: The Bruins have outrageous organizational depth at center. They need a goal-scorer. They need to go after Taylor Hall, even if it means moving up to No. 1.
The only problem with that logic is the guy they'd be passing on if they did so.
While Hall, fresh off electrifying the Memorial Cup with his scoring touch (5 G, 4 A in four games), is viewed by many as being the better fit right now, Plymouth Whalers center Tyler Seguin (pronounced "SAY-ginn") has been called the next Steve Yzerman. Seguin and his coach, former Hartford Whaler Mike Vellucci, spoke with WEEI.com recently, and the 18 year-old's confidence and perceived hockey smarts were prevalent enough to suggest he's the type of guy you change your offense for. If you have the type of depth the Bruins do, you make room.
"Tyler skates a lot like [Yzerman], probably even a little bit better of a skater," Vellucci said of Seguin. "I think [the comparisons] are fair. I know that it's flattering for Tyler, but I think it's more than just on the ice. I think it's character, too. I think Tyler's a mature kid and carries himself off the ice the way Steve Yzerman did, too, and Joe Sakic, guys like that. I think that there's so many aspects of why he's compared to him not just on the ice. I think it's the whole package."
Would David Krejci, Patrice Bergeron or Marc Savard be grossly overpaid and underutilized as a potential fourth-line center? Undoubtedly. Would Joe Colborne be left twiddling his thumbs at Providence a little longer than necessary? Probably. Are these enough reasons to pass on potentially the team's best young center since Joe Thornton? It's hard to say, but it's a certainty that Seguin, who skyrocketed in the eyes of the NHL Central Scouting Bureau to be ranked as the top player in the draft, would be one heck of a consolation prize.
Vellucci has a unique perspective on Seguin, having scouted him, drafted him ninth overall in 2008 and coached him for the majority of his two seasons in Plymouth.
"We saw that he had offensive ability," Vellucci said of watching Seguin two years before he had blossomed into the can't-miss prospect he is now believed to be. "The biggest thing that I noticed at a young age [was] that he was always keeping his feet moving. He was a very good skater and he was never standing still, never glided. He was always keeping his feet moving, he was always involved in the play, and I think the biggest thing about him was that he saw the ice better than anybody of his age group. He was an exceptional playmaker."
Take notice of that last word. Playmaker/complete/balanced makes up the three-headed monster of characteristics tortured Bruins fans may feel they don't need any more of. Described by Vellucci as being "so unselfish where he would look to his teammates even when he had a better scoring angle" in his first year in Plymouth, Seguin tweaked his approach prior to this past season, resulting in an offensive outburst in 2009-10 so colossal that he led the league with 48 goals in addition to his 106 points, tying him with Hall atop the OHL.
"I really did [play selflessly] last year when I had better players around me," said Seguin, who has met with both the Oilers and Bruins. "I'd dish the puck and I knew they'd score, so I had more assists than goals. This year coming in, I've always been a playmaker, but I really wanted to show that I could also bury the puck, so I more than doubled my goals. I just wanted to show that I could be a complete player, I could be a goal-scorer or a playmaker. When you go to the NHL you might end up just being a penalty killer. It all depends, so I just wanted to show that I could be a complete player."
Such an evaluation is undeniable. Unlike the flashy yet-one-dimensional impact Hall would have on Claude Julien's offense, Seguin is versatile and -- earmuffs -- complete enough of a player to help out in every facet of the offense while also proving effective on the backcheck. The young forward had to earn his stripes a bit early on in Plymouth and proving himself as a dominant winger was among the tasks Seguin was forced to conquer. This, Vellucci believes, is where the line is drawn between the two wunderkinds, and if potentially playing a wing in Boston is what's on tap for Seguin, he'll take his talents to the right side of the dot.
"I've always been a natural centerman, and last year as a rookie in order to play on the top line … I had to play wing," Seguin said. "At first I wasn't happy about that, obviously just always playing center, but I adapted to playing wing, so I think I'm very diverse and I'm happy and comfortable playing either position."
As much as Seguin can be commended for his willingness to play either position, would anyone in their right mind actually stick a center with Seguin's prowess anywhere other than his natural position? Vellucci doesn't think the versatility should be an open invitation to permanently move Seguin.
"He's going to be a center in the NHL, no doubt about it," Vellucci said. "But when you're breaking into the NHL as an 18-year-old, it's always a good thing to have that you can play all three positions.
"He knows what to do defensively and he'll do it," Vellucci added. "Being a smart, responsible hockey player in all three zones will make the transition that much easier."
Though Seguin's rise -- he was ranked well behind Hall and others as the No. 9 prospect entering the season before taking over the top spot -- has been a delight for anyone with access to YouTube, he got off to a frustrating start in the OHL that lasted until a change in philosophy was implemented by Vellucci.
Installed as a fourth-liner under then-coach Greg Stefan, Seguin had just one goal 17 games into the season. After Stefan left to become a scout for the Carolina Hurricanes, Vellucci reclaimed his old title as coach (he had been the Whalers' coach from 2001-08). His first order of business was a sit-down with his stalling up-and-comer to figure out how to get the most out of the talented youngster.
"I thought his ability and his skill level was in the top three of our team as a 16-year old," Vellucci said. "I just told him that I didn't care how old he was and that if he was that talented, competed hard, and wanted to be the best player, that I would play him."
That's exactly what he did. 17 games into his first season, the man who gave him his first chance in junior hockey gave his career an early rebirth by moving him up on the depth chart.
"Tyler needs to play with skilled players and I think skilled players need to play with skilled players," Vellucci said of the thinking behind the decision. "Tyler, I think first and foremost, is a playmaker that makes his linemates better around him. But if he's getting the puck to a guy that is not a goal-scorer and can't finish, it's going to be a little different. I just thought that he needed to play with more skilled players.
"I moved him from the fourth line to second line center and he really did well. I moved him to the top line and he played some right wing and he just took off from there."
Seguin says the meeting gave him the confidence of knowing that his coach believed in the talents he knew he had. He went on to total a modest 67 points on the season, but the promise was there and a breakout draft-year season on the horizon. If he wanted to catch the likes of Hall, who had been in the league a year before him, nothing less then that would have sufficed.
"I could tell from Day 1 of practice this year that he was a whole new committed person," Vellucci said. "That first practice to the last practice to the last practice of the year, he worked as hard in practice as he did in the games to get better and I think that speaks about his character as much as anything."
Which brings us to late May. Hall and his powerhouse Windsor Spitfires were stacked enough (Cam Fowler, who could be the third player taken, and Austin Watson are also big names in this draft) to sweep Plymouth and showcase their star in their second-consecutive Memorial Cup championship season. As a result, Seguin can't be sure he hasn't been leapfrogged in the Edmonton's war room.
Is such a predicament a bad thing? Seguin, like any athlete, is driven to earn the distinction of being the first overall pick in a major draft, but it's rare that the runner-up in the race for No. 1 can go to a team expected to compete for a cup.
"In the end it's still the NHL so I'm happy to go to either team," Seguin said. "I don't have a preference. Edmonton is a Canadian city so they have a great fan base and they are a bit of a weaker team so there might be more opportunity there. With that being said, Boston's already a contender. You can hop in the NHL and get a run for the Stanley Cup."
Vellucci, who has coached against Hall "about 40 games in the last three years," says he has told Seguin not to get hung up on where he goes in the draft and instead focus on proving his worth on an NHL roster from the get-go. The only thing he hopes for his player is that the hype of this class, which has been substantial, doesn't lead to expectations unrealistic of any one player.
"I think if he gets taken by Boston he'll handle it fine," Vellucci said. "It's a great team, they've made the playoffs three years in a row, and it will be fine. Is he going to be the savior? No, but he'll be a good piece to the puzzle and I think he realizes no matter where he goes he's going to be given an opportunity to make the team. I think he'd be very happy going to Boston. It's a great place, great city, great hockey town."
The Bruins can still get their goal-scorer with Seguin -- he just comes with the rest of the tools. If anything, he may push people down on the depth chart before being stuck on the bottom of it. In the event that this becomes a historic draft, the Bruins might not want to be remembered as the team that moved up to take someone else.

JENKINS: Henderson man has tough fight with spider bite he didn't even feel
Since it caused so much misery, the least the venomous critter could have done was show itself to its victim, Henderson resident Paul Herron III.
"But I saw no insect," says Paul of that Saturday, June 27, when he was cleaning out the detached garage of a Murray, Ky. house to get the property ready to sell. The residence belongs to his wife, Brenda, who lived in Murrray before marrying Paul on May 26 last year.
He didn't realize he'd been bitten until the skin above his right ankle became a greenish color. Even then, "I thought I had just scraped it on something."
On the way back to Henderson, the field supervisor for the PVA office here stopped at a gas station in Draffenville, "and my leg was swollen." There was also a "huge blister," and the site had become painful.
Paul, 70, realized this was no ordinary bite and went to the Methodist Hospital ER, where he received IV antibiotics and was told to keep the leg elevated over the weekend and then report to the hospital's still-new Wound Clinic on Monday.
Monday saw one of the clinic physicians lancing the bite, cutting dead tissue out of the leg. "They started treating it intensely," Paul says, and he credits the early care with preventing a much, much worse situation.
Even so, a strip of soft tissue six inches long and three inches wide below the outer layer of skin died.
The physicians saw Paul as a good candidate for a device called a "wound vacuum," which he has since worn 24/7 and likely will continue to have for several more weeks.
Paul explains that the vacuum has a suction cup that is placed above the wound, with a tube running up the leg to a container that receives the dead tissue and congealed blood, and to a three-pound pump he wears as a "fanny pack."
Meanwhile, he is treated at the Wound Clinic three times a week.
What bit him?
No one can say for sure, though the prevailing theory is that it was a brown recluse spider, whose bite can be so mild it's not even noticed or — in rare instances — can lead to death. Most of those who die as a result of the bite reportedly are below age 7 or have compromised immune systems.
Typically, the spider is not aggressive and as its name suggests, prefers dwelling in places like closets, garages, cellars and woodpiles. It should be noted, however, that they've also been seen in shoes, work gloves, dresser drawers and the sheets of infrequently used beds.
Paul says his experience hasn't totally paralleled the usual brown recluse spider bite symptoms. The epidermis hasn't died — only the tissue beneath. Wikipedia, the online Free Encylopedia, says misdiagnosis of a brown recluse bite occurs often.
As you'd expect, Paul has had to miss a lot of days at the office while battling the bite, and his peers at the local office and across the state have volunteered some of their own sick days to him. Previously working as an auctioneer, realtor and appraiser, he joined the PVA staff here five years ago, and it's evident they are more than co-workers. They're family.
Many prayers have gone up for him, too, and that's particularly meaningful to him because Paul is deeply dedicated to God and is a certified lay speaker for Methodist churches. Brenda, "who has been a wonderful caregiver," is a talented singer and they make quite a team.
They met not long after Paul had returned from one of seven mission trips to New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina. He was writing online about the trips, and Brenda, who was a widow and a former New Orleans resident, asked him about particular neighborhoods in the city.
That growing communication led to him asking her to go to lunch with him, and gradually love blossomed.
They were wed by her son, The Rev. Matthew Williams, with Paul's son, Mark, serving as best man.
The insect bite is the latest of what Paul calls, "several life-changing experiences."
Another occurred last year when he had more than half his pancreas removed because of cysts that doctors feared would become cancerous. Two weeks after the surgery, a life-threatening infection set in and Paul credits Dr. Jeff Miller of Methodist Hospital with saving him.
He hopes things are going to settle down and give him a chance to do whatever it is that "God is keeping me here for."
First, however, there is this matter of revenge.
On Wednesday last week, Paul and Brenda, an award-winning Kmart employee, were headed to Murray with a bunch of spider traps for the garage that is located in a field.
The multi-legged varmints had better beware.

Reducing Legal Aid to the Poor
[Sorry, the video for this story has expired, but you can still read the transcript below. ]
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Ilene Jacobs is practically a one-woman law firm for the poor. She drives the dusty back roads of California on behalf of indigent people who can't afford private attorneys. Federal dollars make it possible for Jacobs to represent poor clients like these people who are trying to get unsanitary conditions cleaned up in their trailer park. Jacobs works out of an aging bungalow in a tiny California farming town. She's employed by California Rural Legal Assistance, an organization that is supported almost entirely by the Legal Services Corporation that grants money to legal aid groups all over the country. There used to be two more lawyers here, but they had to be let go because of federal budget cuts. So now, Jacobs is doing a juggling act between four or five major cases and the fifty or so people who walk in the door needing help.
ILENE JACOBS, California Rural Legal Assistance: (talking to parents) This is your list of all the parents?
WOMAN: Yes.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: On a recent day, Jacobs began her afternoon by meeting with a parents' committee. The mothers had complained that a local school board had discriminated against their Hispanic children.
ILENE JACOBS: (talking to parents) So there still are children now who are in separate classes?
WOMAN: Yeah. Some.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: That meeting was interrupted when a woman walked in with another legal problem–trouble getting government-promised payments for her disabled daughter.
ILENE JACOBS: (speaking to woman) And the private lawyer who you talked to was going to charge you $800?
WOMAN: Eight or nine hundred (dollars).
ILENE JACOBS: Eight or nine hundred (dollars).
WOMAN: They say how complication it is, the case–now, he's gonna charge me more.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Jacobs told the woman she could not take her case.
ILENE JACOBS: She was told by someone in Salinas that the reason that they weren't helping her is because she's not American. Now, I don't know how much more American you get than a husband in the Navy an a son in the Air Force, but I don't think that that's an appropriate reason, if it's true, and right now, because we're so short-staffed, we are referring these cases to an agency in Sacramento, which is 45 miles from here, to see if they will handle the conservatorship or guardianship.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: That's a constant problem for her. A few minutes later, she had to tell the parents' committee, she couldn't take their case either. What Jacobs can and cannot do in her tiny office in Marysville is at the mercy of a longstanding political fight three thousand miles away on Capitol Hill.
REP. ALAN MOLLOHAN, (D) West Virginia: The Legal Services Corporations, for many of our poorest, most vulnerable citizens, has helped make the most basic tenet of our judicial system–equal justice under the law–a reality.
REP. DAN BURTON, (R) Indiana: The Legal Services Corporation is defending the right of the drug dealers to stay in the public housing projects. They're trying to frustrate the local government officials from–in trying to get those people out of there.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Not only has Congress cut the budget of the parent Legal Services Corporation by 1/3, this year, it wrote new restrictions on what Legal Services' lawyers could do–no more class-action suits, no prisoners or illegal immigrants as clients, no more voting rights or welfare reform cases. For Jacobs' boss, Jose Padilla, the cutbacks alone meant laying off 15 attorneys.
JOSEPH PADILLA, California Rural Legal Assistance: I have a one-attorney office in El Sancho. I have a one-attorney office in Coachella. Now, up here is Marysville–that's a one-attorney office. Here she's serving 23,000 poor people in the three counties that she's serving. Now you tell me if this office goes, where are those 20,000 people going to go? Are they going to go 80 miles here to talk to a legal aid lawyer? Are they going to go 120 miles here to talk to a legal aid lawyer? Of course not. This county is going to go unserved. Those 22,000 people will not have access to the system.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: It's the same in urban areas. A few blocks from Padilla's office in San Francisco, Ken Tyson screens 200 calls a month at the San Francisco Neighborhood Legal Assistance Foundation.
KEN TYSON: (on phone) She broke her arm, and they put ice on it, that's all they did?
MAN: Did you pay a deposit?
WOMAN: You got my message that the judge had scheduled your hearing–
SECOND WOMAN: But you should know that the next time you call the police, that you have a right to–
UNIDENTIFIED MAN: We've had that discussion with them, and–
ANOTHER MAN: Has there been any violence from him toward you, any domestic violence?
BETTY ANN BOWSER: His office can't take more than 12 of those cases now because of cutbacks and congressional restrictions. Those who oppose Legal Services say the agency deserved all the cuts and restrictions it got because it has been irresponsible.
REP. CHARLES H. TAYLOR, (R) North Carolina: And let's look at the history. Twenty years of history of an organization that did not help the poor. It, in fact, punished the poor and used them as an excuse for a very liberal agenda.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Rep. Charles Taylor of North Carolina led a congressional fight to abolish Legal Services because of the kinds of cases he says the organization takes.
REP. CHARLES H. TAYLOR: Let me give you an instance. In one case, where a woman–um–an unmarried woman with a child, a drug addict, the child was taken away by the Social Services for its protection, because the woman clearly was incapable of handling the child. Legal Services sues the Social Services agency to get the child back. The woman then beats the child to death within two weeks after getting the child back.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Terry Wear is also concerned about the direction of Legal Service. He was president of the corporation from 1988 to 1990. He says he tried unsuccessfully to curtail what he thought were abuses by lawyers using government money.
TERRANCE J. WEAR, Former President, Legal Services Corp.: The problem is that these moneys are also used for other cases that don't have the support of the American people, such things like litigating with the Department of Health & Human Services over requiring the government to fund sex change operations for transsexuals, litigating to keep drug dealers in public housing, things of that nature that are just absolutely bad from a policy perspective. But, yet, the Legal Services programs take these cases and promote them.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Charges like that surface repeatedly not only in Washington, D.C.. Growers in the San Joaquin Valley of California, who hire thousands of low-paid farm workers, also have fought with legal aid lawyers. Dan and Mike Gerawan are still angry, even after settling a controversial case over pay and housing conditions at their huge fruit-growing operation near Fresno. The Gerawans built these housing units for their workers, which they claimed were high quality. They were stunned when the local legal aid group sued them on 11 counts, including charges of unsanitary and substandard housing conditions.
DAN GERAWAN, Grower: The complaints that they brought against us, most of them were completely frivolous–lack of recreational facilities, um, no screens on the doors. This had nothing to do with the workers. This had to do with an agency that had a social agenda and, and the workers were secondary.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Jack Londen is a San Francisco attorney who has studied the Gerawan case and says there was nothing frivolous about it.
JACK LONDEN, Lawyer: Let me be specific about it. There were four bunkers in the labor camp there. They were built–the inspectors were told they were single-family dwellings. They had enough room under the minimum standards for ten people in each of the four buildings, but the policy was to keep twenty-four people in each of them. An inspector found a hundred people there, and rent listings–because they charged the workers rent for these places–showed over 90 people at all times in houses built for 40.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: When the case went to trial, the court threw out most of the charges but upheld others, including poor housing and unpaid back wages for workers. In the end, the Gerawans said they were so disgusted by what they saw as irresponsible handling of their case, that they bulldozed the housing. Despite all the criticism the agency has received, an American Bar Association committee concluded that the legal aid lawyers rarely take cases involving a social agenda. It also concluded there is a profound need for attorneys among the migrant poor. Lori Zelon serves as chair of the committee.
LORI ZELON, Chair, ABA Committee on Legal Aid: I think that, in general, the lawyers who are funded by Legal Services work hard to serve their clients. And what they're doing for their clients are very straightforward things. They're trying to ensure that women get child support, that people get out of violent relationships, that people have housing, that people have food stamps, that people get access to health care, that people get an education. That's the main run of what they do.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: But the whole question of when a lawsuit becomes an agenda depends on your perspective. Ken Boehm of the National Legal & Policy Center has also studied Legal Services, citing hundreds of cases he says show clear examples of social engineering by legal aid lawyers. And he blames that on the nature of the parent agency.
KEN BOEHM, Chair, National Legal & Policy Center: In making this agency, providing legal assistance to the poor, independent of government, they made them so independent that when they did things that were wrong, against public policy, controversial, presenting more problems for the poor than they solved, there weren't the checks and balances to stop them from doing that, and so it's one of the few government-funded agencies where even the monitors looking for ways for an abuse can't get into the records. The records are locked up tight. Attorney-client privilege is absolute. It's taxpayers' money, but if somebody embezzles it, uh, none of the federal laws against embezzlement apply.
ILENE JACOBS: (on phone) Did you give them a written 30-day notice?
BETTY ANN BOWSER: When Ilene Jacobs hears charges of social engineering and no accountability, she leaps to the defense of her work. Most of her days are filled with the everyday problems of poor people, like these farm workers.
ILENE JACOBS: (on phone) It's best to confirm that in writing.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: After a long day of meetings and walk-ins, Jacobs went to a meeting of county planners. She's suing them on behalf of poor clients who can't find affordable housing in Sutter County and hopes to influence public policy.
ILENE JACOBS: And less portable housing is required when development is put in, in this county, um, we're not going to have enough for the people who live here and have the least, and rather than litigate about it, it seems to me that the most important thing is to develop that affordable housing.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Jacobs was also responsible for getting county officials to develop an unused railroad station into a shelter for the homeless.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: When you use the law to provide a homeless shelter for people who don't have homes, when you use the law to force a municipality to change its housing policy, are you involved in social engineering as the critics say?
ILENE JACOBS: I don't believe so. I believe that all we are doing is saying, for example, the state of California has a legislature, and that state legislature has decided that housing, decent, affordable housing for the poor people in this state is of critical importance. And if the legislature gives a right to an individual because they're a member of a particular group and they enforce that right, that's not social engineering. That, in fact, is a very conservative approach, well within the judicial system, and one that is designed to accomplish within the rules, within the rules that are set by some of the same people who would argue that we're social engineering, to accomplish a goal.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: Terry Wear doesn't see it that way.
TERRANCE J. WEAR: I think that you could have done the great amounts of good with these federal programs. If the people out in these programs, the program directors, these refugees from the 1960's, who are going to litigate people out of poverty, had allowed it to happen, but the bottom line is they're not interested in that sort of Legal Services. They want an agenda-driven Legal Services.
BETTY ANN BOWSER: The Legal Services Corporation's opponents did not make further cuts this year, but they promise they'll try again next session. For Ilene Jacobs, that's mixed news. She won't have to close her office, but she will continue to be the principal legal resource for 23,000 poor people.

Oyster Feast
The Oyster Feast is the centrepiece of the annual civic calendar in the ancient borough of Colchester located in Essex in the East of England.
The Colchester Natives[edit]
The Colne oyster fishery dates to the Roman era. It was mentioned in the Domesday Book. The borough of Colchester obtained rights to the fishery under the provisions of its Royal Charter granted by Richard I in 1189. The oysters obtained from the fishery are known as "Colchester Natives" (the native oyster, Ostrea edulis).
Annual Opening of the Oyster Fishery[edit]
The oyster fishery is officially "opened" on the first Friday of September each year. The Mayor of Colchester, the Town Clerk, and the Town Sergeant take passage on an oyster dredger out into the Pyefleet Channel of the Colne estuary off Mersea Island, in full civic regalia. A flotilla of small boats carrying invited guests follows the Mayor out into the channel. Oaths are sworn, pledging devotion to the monarch. The Mayor dredges and consumes the first oyster of the season. The Mayor and guests then proceed to an oyster lunch which celebrates the opening of the fishery.
The Oyster Feast[edit]
On the last Friday in October each year, the Mayor of Colchester hosts a grand civic Oyster Feast in the Moot Hall. The feast is attended by civic dignitaries from around the nation, and worthies from the world of arts and entertainment. The Mayor also invites Colchester citizens who are active in local charities, civic bodies, and good causes. There is a public lottery to ensure that every citizen of the borough has the chance to attend this prestigious event.
The feast has its origins in the St Denis Fair dating to the 14th Century. The modern feast dates to 1845 when it was brought onto the civic calendar by Mayor of Colchester Thomas Wolton.
The "Alternative" Oyster Feast[edit]
In recent times (over 30 years) the Colchester Labour Party and Trades Council have organised an "Alternative Oyster Feast" to provide a meal (fish and chips), music, bingo, and entertainment for the town's pensioners.
This event is paid for by the Trades Unions, individuals, and the Labour Party. It started as a protest against council cuts, when a grand event was being held for the few.

Como Te Vas
It's not officially summer until we've heard new music from Trails and Ways (well, technically it's not really summer until June 21st). Last year's "Nunca" served as one of our favorites of 2012, and we have a feeling "Como Te Vas" will have the same impact on us in 2013. Trails and Ways' music has always had a way of transporting you off to a distant land, which is due in large part to the influences the band has gained from their own extensive travels in countries like Brazil and Spain. It might also explain the name of the group's upcoming EP, Trilingual, which is set to drop this Tuesday, June 11th and also includes other outstanding singles like "Border Crosser" and "Mtn Tune".

Photo Flash: Opera Singer Jessye Norman Visits A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
Last night, July 19, opera singer Jessye Norman saw A Streetcar Named Desire again and stopped backstage to see stars Nicole Ari Parker and Blair Underwood. Check out the photo below! A Streetcar Named Desire closes on Broadway this Sunday, July 22.
A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE is set against the sexy backdrop of 1950's New Orleans' gritty French Quarter and tells the tale of a former school teacher and socialite, forced to move in with her sister and animalistic brother-in-law, who quickly gets a gritty life lesson in the steamy underbelly of the Big Easy.
The production stars Blair Underwood in the iconic role of Stanley, Nicole Ari Parker as Blanche, Daphne Rubin-Vega as Stella, and Wood Harris as Mitch. The cast also includes Rosa Arredondo, Amelia Campbell, Carmen DeLavallade, Danielle Lee Greaves, J. Mallory-McCree, Aaron Clifton Moten, Morocco Omari, Jacino Taras Riddick and Count Stovall.

Movies showed are popular, big feature Western Blockbuster movies with English soundtrack and Thai subtitles, although check as some Western movies are dubbed in Thai. There are also Thai movies some, but not all have English sub titles.
Before the start of every movie the Thai national anthem is played, during which all persons including foreigners are expected and must stand to show respect and admiration for the monarchy.
Became one of their regular customers since Central Festival opened because there are many update movies with soundtrack version, clean and comfortable seats. Although the ticket price is more expensive now (180 Baht), but many good promotions. Anyway I still see 2-3 movies/month, and my latest movie was "The Equalizer"… enjoyed it a lot!- Reply - Report This
Save some money by going on a Wednesday, as the tickets are cheaper on Wednesday and if you are going to eat Sizzler, which is right by the cinema has a cheap promotion meals on Wednesday.- Reply - Report This
Movies are up to date and yes soundtrack version is available. Their movie schedule on the website is always changing, you need to call them to confirm, but depends on your luck that the staff would pick up the telephone or not!!- Reply - Report This
This could be the best cinema in Phuket right now. I always come here for movies. It is just in Central Festival Mall making this cinema surrounded by everything we can enjoy our day. Anyway, you must understand the traffic in front of the mall and be patient for parking. Come a bit earlier then it always become easier of course!- Reply - Report This

I booked 1 night at the Westminster Hotel for my partners birthday. I chose the hotel as the pictures on the internet looked lovely and the hotel seemed to be a nice place to stay in a good location.
We were welcomed by friendly staff who checked us in quickly and efficiently. The appearance of the hotel outside and in the lobby was very nice, we loved the fact it seemed to have interesting history behind it.
However, we weren't so pleased with the appearance of the rest of the hotel and the rooms. Everywhere seemed to be run down. It was clean and tidy but the hotel needs a breath of fresh air. Our room felt run down, with old furniture and dusty pictures and surfaces. I was disappointed as I was paying a lot of money for a night in the hotel and the price didn't reflect what we were getting.
The room served its purpose, getting a nights sleep before heading out the next day, however it felt very run down and not worth the money. If you are looking for a simple room for a simple nights sleep then this hotel is perfect for you.
We didn't have breakfast so can't comment on it.
A handy note; there is parking next to the hotel on the pub car park. We managed to get a space but I can imagine it can get busy and if this is the case, I couldn't see parking anywhere else nearby, however I wasn't looking for any. The parking at the pub is only £3 for 4 hours and £5 for 24 hours which is great value for money as it is right next to the hotel.
The hotel is in a great location in terms of the city centre if you are able to walk. It is only about a 10 minute walk into the centre and is easy to find. However, if you are unable to walk very far, there are closer hotels towards the city centre. less

We visited Chester for the first time for a four day week Monday to Friday. The location of the hotel was good - very near to Chester railway station and not too far to walk into Chester. The hotel was nice and the staff very friendly however our first night was not a success. We stayed in room 104 which was quite small with dark décor. It was along a short corridor which again was a little dark (i.e. black carpets and dark wall paper). The main issue was the bathroom - it took over half a bath of water to try to get any hot and even then it was hit and miss. This happened on the first day and again on the second. We complained to reception who were very helpful and eventually they moved us to another room. Our main concern was the fact that so much water was being wasted and there seemed to be no solution - possibly because of the location of the room. This room was also at the back of the hotel and there was building work going on although to be fair this didn't bother us too much. We moved to room 305 which was much better - lighter (bigger windows), lighter wall paper and thankfully a bath and shower that produced hot water although there is still the issue of noise because it fronted onto the main road which goes down to the Station so if you like a quiet hotel maybe not the one for you. Laura on reception deserves a mention - very pleasant, very helpful. Breakfasts were reasonable with a good selection and a pleasant room. We dined in for two nights in the front dining room which was very pleasant. We have had better selections of choice of food for dinner at other Best Westerns but no major complaints. less

I visited the Westminster hotel in June and it was a lovely hotel. It's very centrally located near Chester train station and within walking distance to several shops and restaurants. I only stayed one night and the room was slightly dated however very comfortable and had everything I needed. I did struggle to turn on the lights above the bed and thought they were broken but turned out I needed to turn them on by the wall first lol and then I slept like a baby. The hotel is beautifully decorated. I enjoyed a 2 course meal in the restaurant and it was delightful. The lady advised me that there was a large party booked in yhe restaurant at 19.15 so if I ate at that time it light take a while for my meal to be served, I didn't mind as thry pre warned me. I did arrive for dinner at about 19.30 and I never had to wait for either service or the food. It amazing food and large portions. I was so full I couldn't manage dessert even if I wanted. Hmmm what else.. well I've seen reviews previously about how great the staff is and I can't fault them! The staff is attentive and can't do enough for you! An absolutely fantastic stay .. Thank you for having me! less

Posted 08 April 2013 - 16:48
Posted 08 April 2013 - 16:50
Honestly, I'd just get one of the higher clocked i5 CPUs. An i7 doesn't really give many benefits except for hyperthreading. If you're doing a lot of virtual machines, then maybe the extra threads would give benefits. Otherwise just save the money and get a higher end i5.
Posted 08 April 2013 - 17:40
I'm pretty sure the i7 also has more L3 cache. Can make a difference in gaming and high end rendering apps.
Posted 08 April 2013 - 17:50
Huh? I was talking about the L3 cache, not hyperthreading and on die cache does make a difference in games.

A book event
Beginning with the first insurgencies in the ancient world - when Alexander the Great discovered that fleet nomads were harder to defeat than massive conventional armies - Max Boot, best-selling author and military advisor in Iraq and Afghanistan, guides us from the Jewish rebellion against the Roman Empire up through the horrors of the French-Indochina War and the shadowy, post-9/11 battlefields of today. Relying on a diverse cast of unforgettable characters - not only Mao and Che, but also the legendary Italian nationalist Giuseppe Garibaldi, the archaeologist-turned-military commander T. E. Lawrence, and the "Quiet American" Edward Lansdale, among others - Boot provides a complete global history of guerrilla uprisings through the ages. In doing so, he, not only exposes the myths and mysteries of unconventional combat, but also provides special insights into nontraditional warfare.
Max Boot, one of America's leading military historians and foreign-policy analysts, is the Jeane J. Kirkpatrick Senior Fellow in National Security Studies at the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR). He is a contributing editor to the Weekly Standard and the Los Angeles Times and a regular contributor to the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Commentary, and other publications. He has also served as an adviser to U.S. commanders in Iraq and Afghanistan. Before joining CFR in 2002, Boot spent eight years as a writer and editor at the Wall Street Journal, the last five years of which was spent as op-ed editor. From 1992 to 1994 he was an editor and writer at the Christian Science Monitor. He previously authored The Savage Wars of Peace: Small Wars and the Rise of American Power - which won the 2003 General Wallace M. Greene Jr. Award from the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation as the best nonfiction book pertaining to Marine Corps history - and War Made New: Technology, Warfare, and the Course of History, 1500 to Today.

My 93 Ford Aerostar Starts Up After A 7 Year Sleep
Starting it to take it with me when my house gets sold once the water damage is repaired. As I was trying to rock it out of the ground it because it sunk in over the years I did a small burnout with it in the dirt. By the way, doing a burnout with the door open like that. Bad idea, as you can see that I smoked my own ass out. lol This van has served me well. My family took me and my brother on road trips with it and then I took it on my own road trips when I was using it everyday. I parked it in my backyard by my storage unit in 2007 and it hasn't ran or moved since until 1-15-2014. The reason why I parked it was because the overdrive goes on and off until it reaches 70 mph. That and I have to add a quart of oil to the engine before reaching 3,000 miles on an oil change. But it survived my mother over heating it in it's early life before I owned it. It has 271,000 miles on it and I didn't think that it was going to start after sitting for so long with seven year old gas in the tank. But you can see the look on my face in the video that I was impressed that it did. Just by putting a battery in it and getting the starter to loosen up and finally turn the engine over. The reason why I broke the passenger side window is because the door was stuck shut and I was trying to get it open. Why did I park it instead of getting rid of it? Well original I was saving it to take it to Dave's Farm and finish what ever life it had left in it over there. But now I have a new idea. I'm going to take it to a Demolition Derby and have fun with it before junking it. It had a good life and run and now we party.

Starting up my Ford Aerostar and Chevy Astro, Exhaust sound, and walkaround. Both are nice vans but I prefer the Aerostar due to mpg, driveability, and space. Will do a video for van dwelling and rubber tramping in the Aerostar soon. Thanks for watching!
Ford Aerostar Actuator Rod Repair
Shows how to remove a steering wheel and replace an actuator rod on a 1996 Ford Aerostar AWD XLT. This is an intense repair and it is important to have all required tools before starting otherwise you can easily get stuck and require a tow truck and a mechanic to complete the repair process. If your vehicle won't turn off (turned on, but now turning the key is doing nothing) and you have a Ford (I can't say all Ford owners will be able to use this advice) then pull the ignition switch out (first thing shown on the video is the ignition switch hanging right below the air bag power connector) and pull that metal pin sticking up towards you. This will turn off your vehicle.
