GFF Summit 2008
Published Nov 23rd 2008
A merry gathering of fly anglers from all over the place
By Frederik Odelberg
After the welcoming we had breakfast , a breakfast far from the oatmeal and lingon (Cowberry) jam that us Spartan Swedes usually have. This breakfast consisted of a wide range of sausages, bread, cheese, jam, marmalade and juice. This truly was the country of groovy pastry. A much more endorsing country than the bitter north.
Wedellsborg once again welcomed us with good weather and some wind, also with a couple of smaller fish that was caught during the day
The night was initially spent viewing pictures and telling lies to each other. I fell asleep during the movie that Rolandas showed from Argentina, and frankly I'm not sure what was in my dream and what was true. After waking up from that state of being, I quickly made sure to find a better place to sleep.
This, this is it! Was the first thing Martin said after arriving at the beach on Sunday. The water had a gentle ripple caused by a gentle wind and the water was fairly clear in opposite to the day before when it looked more or less like bad coffee.
A short discussion was held of where and with what to fish with, after that we formed into small teams and started the hunt. Jan, Richard and I went downwind and started fishing where the beach met some rocks. I quickly fell into the usual 'fishing-machine-mode' and let cast after cast roll out towards the horizon.
I can't say that I was surprised when my fingers registered a hard tug on my fly, the hook was set. After a hard fight on my five weight, I lifted up my first "big" Danish sea trout into my gentle arms and begun posing for the cameras. I then took the hook out and watched it swim back into the big blue where it came from. Not surprised? Is he that confident? No, but sometimes everything is right and you know that it's just a matter of time before you get close contact with a fish.
Just afterwards Richard caught a slightly colored trout of almost 60 cm that, for me and Jan, marked the end of this year's Danish odyssey, or as we who where present would like to call it: "The Summit".

The sun was peeking over the top of the Wisconsin State Fair racetrack grandstand when Phil Norby plugged in his guitar and prepared to become an oxymoron - a rock 'n' roll morning person.
Hours before other stages at the fair put on live party music, Norby is playing a daily 8 a.m. gig at the Machine Shed restaurant for the breakfast crowd.
Music at the fair is usually served with generous side orders of beer, which has been known to cause people to sing along and dance. It's coffee instead for Norby's audience. He provides the background music as they mow down plates of eggs and pancakes, and sticks of chocolate-covered bacon.
"This is ridiculously early. I'm not used to being up at this time of day," he said when I met him at the fair Thursday morning about 7:15, by far the earliest I've ever been there.
As a professional musician who often plays at bars, Norby normally gets up at the crack of 10 a.m. or later. For the fair's 11-day run, he's been setting two alarm clocks for 6:30 and schlepping his equipment from his place in Wauwatosa to the fair park, which opens to the public at 8 a.m. He plays until 11 a.m. each day with one break.
The so-called morning music café is new at the Machine Shed, which is located next to the We Energies Energy Park along the west edge of the grounds.
"This is our first year trying it. We'll see how it goes," manager Nathan Morrissey said.
The three booths and eight tables quickly filled with diners, and a few dozen people waited in line for breakfast.
Not everyone wants amplified music with their pancakes, of course.
"It's a little loud for me, but some people like it," said Helen Butzler of West Allis.
"Not really," said Illinois hog farmer Ellis Burger. "I rocked and rolled too late last night."
Norby's MySpace page lists Led Zeppelin, the Doors and Jimi Hendrix among his top influences, but he knows better than to start rockin' "Whole Lotta Love" first thing in the morning.
He opened with "Take It Easy," by the Eagles, followed with some BoDeans and more Eagles by request, and made his way through America's "Sister Golden Hair," "Wonderwall" by Oasis, and pushed the morning limits with the Foo Fighters and Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Sitting behind a row of hay bales and in front of a cow cutout, Norby strummed an electrified acoustic guitar. His easy-going manner and smooth singing voice are well-suited for the a.m. hours.
"It's great because we were looking for a place to eat breakfast, now we have entertainment as well," said Susan Welle of Franklin.
Norby didn't seem upset that he never got more than a smattering of applause. It's just too early to clap. His listeners studied their fair schedules and talked about what to see next.
"It's cool. People are here. That's what matters. I'm just supposed to be entertaining them," Norby said.
You get some odd requests from a State Fair morning crowd. Norby, 26, had barely strummed his first chord and said hello when an older gentleman yelled out that he wanted to hear "Old Shep." I later looked the song up on Google. It's about a dog that dies, and it was written in 1933. Someone else wanted "Grandma's Feather Bed," and there were pleas for "Green, Green Grass of Home" and anything by Danny Gokey.
"I have a feeling I might get stumped a lot with this crowd," Norby said.
He has loved music since he was a preschooler singing along to his dad's classic rock albums. He got his first guitar at age 12 and was in bands as a teenager in Sussex. His degree in culinary arts is gathering dust as he makes his living as a musician, performing regularly at the Mo's Irish Pub locations, other bars, festivals, weddings and other gigs, either solo or with a band.
When he was offered the Machine Shed job, he jumped at the chance. He plans to use the money he earns at the fair to record his first disc of original music with help from some friends.
He'll probably benefit from a few good naps this week, and he's worried about gaining weight if he sticks around the fair too long after his shift ends. The Machine Shed is featuring cheeseburgers on Krispy Kreme doughnuts instead of buns.
"I'm getting paid to play my guitar, so I can't complain too much."

A few weeks ago, I emailed Disney with questions about Fantasmic & Carousel of Progress as well as thanking them for what they did with Ben's 1000th SWSA ride. I really wasn't expecting an answer and if I were to get one, I figured it would be the standard "Thank You for contacting Disney World, we appreciate your input" email response. However, I was trully suprised (not to mention really happy) that Disney took the time to call me. Hope called me from the executive offices at Walt Disney World with answers.
First of, Fantasmic. The age old question...is it a firework show? Some have commented that they list it under the Firework section. Here is her official responce. "It is a night time spectacular including fireworks. I understand your confusion regarding where we place it on the guide maps versus the times guide and so anyway we will look into it as well in addressing it with our VP at the Disney-MGM Studios and the team that creates that sort of callatoral for our guests." Hopefully this will clear thins up and Disney will make sure it is listed under the right category.
Secondly, Carousel of Progress. I emailed them with my suggestion as to what to do with the attraction. I won't post my whole suggestion, but instead just give a cliffnotes version (if you want to hear what I suggested, just ask). Basically I asked for them to keep the ride, but just maintain/refurbish the current scenes, add a new NYE scene in the exit theater, and make the entrance theater the entrance & exit theater. This is her reply...basically, they enjoyed my suggestion and take my email very seriously "and shared it with the Vice President of the Magic Kingdom so that he can look at it and show it to the tomorrowland team as well as the imagineering team and see what they can do as far as that attraction is concerned."
All this goes to show you that if you email Disney (in a nice way), they WILL take your email seriously. The full audio of these messages can be found here (in MP3 format). Those bells you here cover my last name.

Gimp,and something called X11.problems.
Hiya folks (waves)
I'm hoping someone could help install gimp.
I've downloaded "Gimp" and added It to applications but when I double
click the icon,It tells me X11 needs to be used.
So i downloaded X11User.dmg from the apple site,
after clicking through and agreeing to the user licence,
This happens.http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...k/Picture8.png
As I'm very new to Apple laptops I'm at a total loss as what to do next.
Am I doing something wrong/dumb ?
Could someone show me what to do ?
X11 is on your install/restore discs. You will need to install it using those.
Once you have done that, you can install and use GIMP.
Ohh right,
but I don't have any install disks ,my brother inlaw gave me the laptop.
I'll call him in the morning and see if he knows where they are.:D
Are you dedicated to using GIMP, or are you open to other alternative image editors for your Mac? You might want to check out GraphicConverter or ChocoFlop, both of which are GIMP-like.
GraphicConverter is really very powerful, but it is a commercial product - you will have to pay after a trial period expires. ChocoFlop is free and is getting very good these days. Both are native OS X apps, not requiring X11.
X11 Download for Tiger OSX 10.4
If you have the Tiger OSX 10.4, you can download the X11 application here: http://cjmart.in/2006/12/01/install-x11-on-tiger-without-the-tiger-install-dvd/
It's not the current version, but once you download it you can click on Software Updates and it will show that there is a newer version that you can update to.
I also wanted to use the Gimp program, but to use this I needed the X11 and I didn't have discs for the computer. With the X11 download from the above link I can now use Gimp.

First, draw the crest of the wave; one line with a dip in it. Your wave can crash to the left (opposite of the one here) or into the middle (just draw...
Next draw the "C'' shaped lines under one side of the crest to make the face of the wave curve.
Then draw the white wash and foam crushing down on the water.
Now draw the top of the wave folding over by drawing a simple curved line.
Draw in the finishing details... be creative!
Finally, color in your masterpiece and your done!
We have a be nice comment policy. Please be positive and constructive.

I am a meteorologist from New York who has been studying and forecasting the local weather for years. I especially enjoy tracking winter storms.
By: NYCvort, 7:31 PM GMT on March 29, 2011
The models are finally beginning to come to a better consensus on the ideas that I had posted in the comments section the last couple of nights, so I thought it was time to provide a more in depth discussion of our potential storm system.
The pattern over the Pacific has changed over the past few days with the trough that was located over eastern Asia translating into the Pacific and beating down the persistent central Pacific ridge. We went from this (note the trough over eastern Asia, ridge over central Pacific, trough diving into the west coast):
to this (trough diving into Pacific, eastern Pacific ridge):
This will began to have significant implications downstream, as the ridge will rebuild along the west coast. This will in turn cause plentiful energy coming across the Pacific to round the ridge and carve out a trough over the country's mid-section. This trough is then expected to turn negative and ride up the eastern seaboard.
Take a look at the water vapor satellite. Note all of the jet energy approaching the west coast (yellow and red shading). This is a big signal that a powerful storm is in the making. All of this energy will be helping to carve out a deep trough:
By Wednesday night this turns into:
The models remain at odds on the track of the storm, but a general consensus would argue for rain changing to a heavy wet snow as dynamic cooling takes effect with very cold air aloft moving overhead.
Above we have this morning's GFS run for Friday. Note the negatively tilted 500mb trough, and the northern and southern jet streams are in the process of phasing. The 700mb low is beginning to intensify and moisture is getting thrown back. This moisture is being dynamically lifted, shown by the positive advection of vorticity. At this prog, there is a sub-988mb low off the coast, and the boundary layer is cooling enough for precipitation to changeover to snow.
The one thing that I think is worth mentioning is the fact that you can see on the GFS image above how there is no high on the backend filtering in and thus a lack of low level cold air on the backside of the storm. We will be relying mostly on dynamic and evaporate cooling to allow the column to cool. Right now I think the best chance for an accumulating snowfall on the backend of this system would be over the interior areas north and west of NYC. But, the city and coast need to keep a close eye on the progress of this storm. Coincidentally, since there is no low level cold air filtering in behind this system, it will actually get warmer this weekend after this storm departs and heights rise. So whatever snow does fall will be rather quick to melt in the days following.

Short Range Weekend Discussion (updated Thu 3/24)
This Weekend's Blocked Pattern:
The energy that is blocked between ridges over western Canada and the eastern North Atlantic/Greenland will continue to consolidate into a powerful upper low that will gradually sink southward. This "wedged in" polar vortex will crush down heights over the northeast. Take a look at our temporarily blocked up pattern below. A strong upper high building back toward Greenland and a ridge over western Canada with a polar vortex over the Canadian Maritimes:
850mb temperatures have dropped into the teens today and are not expected to get out of the teens until next Tuesday! The graphic below shows high pressure building down from Canada and northwest flow sending down unseasonably cold air straight into our region:
The dotted blue line on the graphic above is the -10°C, or 14°F isotherm at 850mb, and you can see how that isotherm has sunk to the south of us by early Saturday. You can also see that moisture is getting suppressed to the south. Even with full sun (now at a mid-September angle) and excellent mixing with deep-layered northwest flow, these anomalously cold 850mb temperatures of 10 to 15 degrees will only be capable of translating into highs near 40 on Friday and in the upper 30s on Saturday, with breezy conditions generally keeping wind chill values from getting much higher than the freezing mark through both days. Lows at night will fall deep into the 20s area-wide, with winds dying down enough for teens in the far outlying areas. This will almost certainly be the coldest air mass we experience until next winter.
The NAM is likely too cold (it shows 850mb temperatures dropping into the single digits this weekend!), but I'm posting it here anyway for illustrative purposes. Look at all of the cold air funneling down over the northeastern quarter of the country ahead of a 1035mb high over south central Canada, with a strong thermal gradient set up to our south:
On Sunday, it looks like northern stream energy diving down from southern Canada into the Great Lakes will be strong enough to keep Pacific moisture suppressed just to our south:
If precipitation were to fall, it would be cold enough for light snow. The best chance of this occurring would be over southern portions of the metro area. However, I personally believe that the polar energy diving down from Canada will be strong enough to keep us dry. Temperatures on Sunday will be somewhat dependent on how much cloud cover can make it into the region, with highs somewhere in the upper 30s to lower 40s expected. This same energy sends one more push of colder air into the region on Monday with highs once again capped in the low 40s.
So to recap, a cold late March weekend is on tap from Friday right on through Monday. The dark blue shaded area (which includes NYC) on the ECMWF ensemble mean image below shows areas that are expected to encounter 850mb temperatures averaging greater than 8 degrees below normal this weekend:
Surface temperatures are expected to be averaging some 10 to nearly 20 degrees below normal from east to west across the northeast:

Near Term Discussion (updated 3 pm on Wed 3/23)
The rain/snow line has been hovering in our area during the day today with periods of rain and wet snow at times. It gets a little more interesting as we head into tonight, and let me show you why. As we head into tonight, our 500mb shortwave will be approaching. Right now what we are dealing with is basically overrunning because the flattened 500mb shortwave ridge axis won't even be clearing us until early this evening. Once it does so, there will be a relatively small period of time during which there will still be ample mid-level moisture AND forcing at 500mb to act on this moisture.
Forcing via positive advection of vorticity (energy)…
+ High levels of moisture in the mid-levels…
= Moderate precipitation…
This period of time will be from late this evening through the first part of tonight. Now the other piece to this equation is that coincidentally, temperatures are expected be dropping to near or just above the freezing mark before midnight.
In the form of snow…
So this leaves us with a short stretch of time where moderate precipitation is expected to fall in the form of snow. But still, as I was saying last night, the ground will be quite warm and wet, so it will be very difficult to actually get the snow to stick, especially in the city. The suburbs may have a slightly better shot.
Short Range Discussion (updated Tue 3/22): Overview of the pattern leading up this week's storm
While the exact track of the storm system for later this week is still uncertain, I'd like to take a quick look at some of the features that will be setting up for our storm. Here we have tonight's 500mb pattern analysis as depicted by the NAM:
Let's begin analyzing this map from the top right hand side. First, we have the high pressure ridge that is beginning to build up over the eastern north Atlantic (and will gradually retrograde northwestward back toward Greenland over time). This is in association with the falling NAO index (which I discussed in more detail back in my last entry). This ridge is causing everything to get blocked up. Rather than the disturbances escaping to the east like they were for the past weeks, now they can't because the upper level high pressure ridge is preventing them from doing so. Disturbance #1 is remnant energy that is left over of the upper level disturbance that sent a dry cold front through last Friday and brought an abrupt end to the 70+ degree weather. Disturbance #2 is the upper level energy that was responsible for the rain and snow Tuesday morning. Disturbance #3 is a perturbation in the polar jet stream. These three disturbances will not be able to escape to the east due to the downstream blocking ridge.
Now, what makes this even more interesting is that there will be a quasi-stationary upper ridge over western Canada, ever so slowly changing tilt on its northern end. Strong northwest flow on the eastern flank of this ridge will send down additional energy. Together, all of this trapped upper level energy will ultimately form a powerful upper low.
In the meantime, disturbance #4 is a Pacific disturbance that will be crossing the country around the southeast high pressure ridge. In the previous pattern, this disturbance would have had no trouble moving to the north of our area like the past ones. However, once an upper low begins to form to our north, disturbance #4 will be forced to the south by energy and northwest flow rounding the vortex. This will cause the disturbance to make a sharp turn to the east and then southeast.
Right now there are small differences in the details that are leading to very different solutions. The models will continue to iron themselves out on the exact track of this disturbance and the associated low pressure system over the next few runs. Check back for updates.

Short and Medium Range Discussion (updated Sat 3/19)
Warm 850mb temperatures and excellent mixing this afternoon combined with a downsloping wind component and sent temperatures soaring through the 70s. The record was crashed at Kennedy with a high of 79, breaking the old record of 70 by 9 degrees. Temperatures hit the 80 degree mark at Newark. While a southeast ridge will remain strong right through early next week, here in the northern mid-Atlantic we will be moving onto the polar side of the jet with temperatures on their way down as a moisture-starved shortwave moves on through Saturday.
Ahead of this upper level wave, a surface cold front crossed through Friday, with 850mb temperatures crashing Friday night. In fact, by late Saturday, 850mb temperatures will be as far below freezing as they were above freezing Friday. The atmosphere will remain well-mixed during the day Saturday, so highs will still manage to reach the 50 degree mark one more time. The same cannot be said for Sunday, however, with high pressure building overhead severely limiting mixing, but good solar radiation from stronger sunshine this time of year still sending us into the 40s. Take a look at the strong 1036+ mb high overhead on Sunday:
As for the nighttime lows, with the cold air in place, temperatures Saturday night will drop into the 30s, with 20s in many suburbs. With light winds expected Sunday night, lows will depend on just how quickly clouds filter in overhead, with eastern areas having a better shot at a longer period of radiational cooling.
In the meantime, a disturbance will eject itself from the upper low near the west coast and slide to our north on Monday. Not only will the forcing from this shortwave be focused well to the north, but with the southeast ridge still pumping strong, there won't be any opportunity to tap into Gulf moisture, so we probably get away with just some warm advection showers.
However, more importantly is the fact that this disturbance will combine with energy from the polar jet stream and be one of the building blocks of an upper low that is expected to form over the Canadian Maritimes. Isentropic lifting over the cold air mass that is deposited could even lead to some light snow Wednesday night somewhere in the northeast or mid-Atlantic depending on the exact track of the west coast low that will be finally ejecting eastward by the middle of next week.
Take a look at the graph below:
Both the GFS and ECMWF operational and ensemble mean are showing a –NAO forming by the middle of next week. This would end up being the first time we've had a substantial negative NAO since way back in January. This –NAO would signal a ridge building in the north Atlantic back toward Greenland. This will keep the disturbances from escaping to the east and lead to sneaky troughing in the northeast despite an unfavorable pattern as teleconnected downstream from the Pacific. Furthermore, additional ridging will be progressing over northern Canada and may "meet up" with the Greenland ridge to produce a high pressure block and cause a second, larger and more powerful, upper low to form underneath over northern New England/the Canadian Maritimes.
You may have noticed that the AO index is forecast to be quite positive over the next couple weeks, but this won't matter too much because as we can also see on the image above, the +AO is due to the fact that there is a strong polar vortex centered over the arctic but more focused over the eastern hemisphere.
The negative NAO and blocking do begin to disappear after next weekend, but coincidentally some big changes may be going on the Pacific that could lead to another opportunity for some colder air in the extended range. I'll keep watching the maps this weekend for more evidence on that potential change and post on it sometime soon.
Enjoy the weekend

Short and Medium Range Forecast (updated Sun 3/13)
An upper level disturbance will scoot by to our north on Sunday. This disturbance is currently over the Great Lakes, depicted as disturbance #1 on tonight's 500mb pattern analysis by the RUC model:
The surface cold front in association with this disturbance will pass through tonight, and winds will begin to veer. In addition, temperatures at the 850mb level will be dropping from the upper 30s this evening to around 20 by Sunday morning. This would often be indicative of a significant cool down; however, a strong downsloping westerly flow and good mixing will allow temperatures to rise up to near 50. But there will be a sharper drop in temperature observed Sunday evening as Canadian high pressure builds in and the effects of the new colder air mass begin to be felt. Lows will fall into the low to mid 30s.
Another shortwave (disturbance #2 above, currently over south central Canada) will approach on Monday, and this will lead through a mid-level trough that will send down some even colder 850mb temperatures in the mid-teens.
Mid-level temperatures this cold have often kept us struggling to reach the freezing mark with subsidence associated with high pressure building in. However, this time around, the alignment of the winds in the 850mb-surface level that will be fostered by this second shortwave passing overhead will allow us to still see highs climb well into the 40s with winds lined up out of the north in this level and good mixing once again despite the strong high building in.
The high will move overhead early on Tuesday and then offshore by late Tuesday. Clear skies and diminishing winds should allow for decent radiational cooling conditions Tuesday night with lows dropping into 30s in the city and 20s in the outlying suburbs. An onshore flow is expected on Tuesday with highs ranging from the low 40s near the coast to the upper 40s inland.
Shortwave ridging will crest late Tuesday before moisture begins to stream into the area ahead of a southern branch disturbance. That disturbance will be meandering in the southeast until getting picked up by a northern stream trough. Before it does so, a round of showers will move through the area during the day on Wednesday.
The consolidated trough passes overhead late Wednesday night. Behind this trough, ridging will build with milder weather expected for the end of the week. A powerful trough will be dropping into the west coast, and this will pump up the southeast ridge and allow the northern end of its influence to extend into our area. Look at all the milder air that will be streaming in:
This will send us well into the 60s for highs by Friday, followed by more normal temperatures over next weekend.

First Bolded: I don't hink so. We have 4 guys able to rush the puck consistantly it seem: Legwand, Erat, Suter, and SK. Let me see more of Blum, but he looks like he can too. Wilson tries, but puckhogs more than erat. We have a team of grinders and kids and castoffs. We don't play an exciting, creative game because our skill set is working hard. We don't trap. We forecheck 2 hard almost all the time. Last I checked a 2-1-2 scheme is pretty darn aggressive. We generate chances off of mistakes: just like last night. Dman doesn't clear rebound-goal. Hamhuis turns the puck over-Goal. even the empty netter, erat takes a stupid shot and the Van players lazily go to get the icing touch up, and Legwand outworks everyone for the EN goal.
Second Bolded: for all the hockey you watch, you must have watched him as latest last year.
Third Bolded: We don't have a true #1 line. We have 2 2nds, a checking, and an energy line with a bit of grit (tootoo and the kids) I would argue other than the sedins, kesler, and burrows, out of your other 5 top nie, who they would replace in out top six?

Decision Reflects Court's Deep Division
WASHINGTON -- Sonia Sotomayor, the New York appellate judge President Barack Obama has nominated to the Supreme Court, has credited her success in part to postwar America's efforts to correct centuries of racial discrimination.
If, as expected, her nomination is confirmed, the self-described "affirmative-action baby" will join a court divided on that very topic.
Chief Justice John Roberts came to the court with a deep-seated skepticism of race-conscious policies. In a number of cases his court has ruled, often 5-4, in favor of limiting the scope of civil-rights laws and practices devised to address racial discrimination.
"It is a sordid business, this divvying us up by race," Justice Roberts wrote in a 2006 concurring opinion rejecting a Voting Rights Act challenge to Texas' congressional redistricting.
"This is an area where there are sharply divergent intuitions about the role of race in American society, and sharply divergent views about what should be done about it," says Goodwin Liu, co-director of the Chief Justice Earl Warren Institute on Race, Ethnicity and Diversity at the University of California, Berkeley.
Some expect Judge Sotomayor would buttress the court's liberal wing, which has adhered to precedents that upheld aggressive race-conscious programs in an era when the sting of discrimination was fresh. Although likely to be in dissent at least until a conservative justice retires, Judge Sotomayor could revive traditional liberal doctrines.
"Her own persona, as someone who is self-identified with an ethnic group, and one she believes has in some sense been discriminated against...will make her position more rhetorically powerful" on race cases than David Souter, the liberal-leaning justice she would replace, says John McGinnis, a Northwestern University law professor.
It also is possible that she could seek to hammer out a middle ground. Still, sometimes justices' views change, if subtly, over time. The chief justice himself has displayed a more moderate streak this term. Earlier this month, he wrote an opinion joined by seven other justices that left alive a bedrock provision of the Voting Rights Act of 1965.
The Supreme Court's decision Monday in the New Haven firefighters' case highlights the justices' split. The four liberals would have upheld the city's decision to toss out test results that it worried were discriminatory.
A concurring opinion from Justice Samuel Alito, joined by Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, effectively accused New Haven's leadership of pandering to a local black political leader in throwing out the test results. Notably, Chief Justice Roberts didn't join that toughly worded opinion.
Last year, Judge Sotomayor was one of a three-member panel that found for New Haven with a brief paragraph upholding a lower-court opinion.
Judge Sotomayor's most famous words have come not from any judicial opinion, but from a lecture she delivered to a Hispanic law student group. "I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life," she said. Should she join the Supreme Court, that hope could find its toughest test in cases where race itself is the issue.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 10/14/12
Delirious only minutes earlier, fans at Yankee Stadium sat stunned in utter disbelief while they watched Derek Jeter being helped off the field, his left leg dangling. Their worst fears were met, too. The durable captain broke his left ankle in the 12th inning of the AL championship series opener on Saturday night and is out for the rest of the postseason. ''It's kind of crushing,'' outfielder Nick Swisher said. Three innings after Raul Ibanez sent the crowd of 47,122 into a frenzy with a tying two-run homer in the ninth inning, the New York shortstop silenced the stadium when he went down and didn't get up after making a tumbling stop on Jhonny Peralta's grounder. That feel-good moment was gone in a flash. Jeter took four steps to his left for the sharp grounder, landing hard on his left foot, falling and wincing in pain as he flipped the ball toward second base. He then rolled onto his stomach, and a collective gasp was heard when the player who symbolizes championship baseba...

The universe was in Bay Ridge — Miss Universe, that is — to help cut the ribbon on the neighborhood's newest business last Wednesday.
Ximena Navarrete, Miss Universe 2010, joined a beauty from closer to home, Rima Fakih, Miss USA 2010, as well as a bevy of elected officials and local civic leaders to celebrate the opening of Bay Ridge Ford on 86th Street near Dahlgren Place.
"We're very excited to be in Brooklyn," said owner Gary Flom, whose other dealership is across the East River in a place called Manhattan. "I think it's a great area to open up a new business in Bay Ridge. I look forward to doing well in here for a very long time."
Opening a new car dealership as some Brooklynites are still struggle economically. may be a leap of faith, but it's one Flom seems comfortable with.
"I put a lot of money in the project," he said. "I believe the economy will be coming back next year."
The new business will bring with it at least 50 new jobs, said Flom — one reason, that the dealership and its 7,500-square-foot showroom has been warmly welcomed in the neighborhood.
Another reason could be the $10,000 contribution the dealership made to Camp Brooklyn, the charity founded by Borough President Markowitz to help send underprivileged kids who live in the borough to summer camp.
"I think as a new member of the community, especial in these days when the economy is still tough, it's good to be able to do this," Flom said.

Modified Chop Saw
5 Attachment(s)
Ok, let me preface this by saying a couple things. 1) Hopefully OSHA does not read through these forums 2) This was probably very dangerous so use this idea at your own risk!
I was struggling with what to do for a saw. I wanted to taper my bricks so a wet saw was necessary, but I didn't want to spend $400 to buy one, and renting at $60.00 per day would have cost me more than buying one. So I decided to give something a shot. I had a woodworking chop saw and decided to adapt it for use with a water pump. I looked at the saw and the motor is separated by a few inches from the blade. I cut a cement trough so the base of my saw would fit (I did have to set it up on a few bricks), got a $10 fountain pump and was in business. I sprayed all the metal parts and moving parts of my saw with WD40.
I used a Husky Diamond Blade as you can see pictured.
I am a furniture maker, so I am used to compound cuts on a miter saw; I have to say, if I were to do this again, I think I would use the same method. Compound cuts were very easy to set up, no complicated jigs or sleds.
I was able to use 1 saw blade for my whole build. Just make sure you have enough water on the cutting area, and GO SLOWLY.
My total cost was $35.00 for the blade, $10.00 for the pump and $7.00 for the trough.
If you use this, USE A GFCI circuit. I didn't have any problems, but I had piece of mind knowing that it was there.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
we did it and are still alive to talk about it(and enjoy wonderful pizza):D
Re: Modified Chop Saw
Resourceful, but I'm playing the devil's advocate. While I appreciate the fact that you were able to do compounds with one cut, I cannot understand why someone would abuse a $500 Bosch sliding compound miter saw like that. I'm a huge Bosch fan/user and avid woodworker myself, and was taught very early to take care of my fine tools and they will take care of you. I leave craziness like this for the inexpensive Chinese crap tools...speaking of which, you could have purchased the Harbor Freight wet saw for around $200 (with coupon and continuous sale) which is intended (so we think) for water use and spared the Bosch.
Glad it worked out for you, no harm-no foul, but still scratching my head over this one. Sure hope that Bosch doesn't seize up the next time you try to cut crown or build a cabinet face frame.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
I understand your concern. The fact is, I am a fine furniture maker and have an entire woodworking shop with a newer Festool chop saw. This Bosch is one I have at my house that I don't use that often. It was more important to me to save the money and take the gamble... Luckily it paid off. My saw seems to be in fine working condition. For what it is worth, I cleaned it pretty well after each use and didn't let the water and mud sit on the machine.
Like I said, I wouldn't recommend it for everyone, but it worked for me. :)
Re: Modified Chop Saw
I knew there was a catch.......the newer Festool. Lucky bastard. I will be stuck with my shop full of Bosch for awhile. The Germans know their s$^t when it comes to powertools.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
Hi -I started to use a similar setup today to cut firebricks. With careful use I can't see any problems. gmchm
Re: Modified Chop Saw
Bosch is the lower end of the market, well it is here, used to be the bees knees but now its all just rubbish.
Id rather pay the extra few bucks to get the quality but it seems all companies are after is a few extra bucks rather than customer loyalty.
I also do some hobby woodworking and usually go for Makita stuff if its available.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
I'm glad to hear that you rigged it up for wet cutting, but for anyone reading the thread, when you dry cut, PROTECT YOUR LUNGS.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
AGREED!!! If you dry cut with anything, weather it is an angle grinder or chopsaw there is an unbelievable amount of dust. I would recommend wet cutting regardless of what saw you use, it virtually eliminates the dust; but you still need eye protection for sure.
Re: Modified Chop Saw
I just posted a photo of my low-tech wet saw in the floor and dome gallery. I can report that there is no apparent dust. I may add a small pond pump later. gmchm

Hi! I'm from Louisiana and will be spending half my time in LA for work. Looking forward to it.
I am working to get a new business off the ground, likely resulting in me spending at least half of my time in Los Angeles. ( I'll be there on and off for a month or so at a time). My home is currently in south Louisiana, where I'm from, and I love it but I do look forward to time in LA and meeting new people in the area (and if something with someone takes-off with some one, hopefully they won't mind a little long distance communication from time to time). In terms of what I enjoy- well, I enjoy many things- I like being out as much as in, fine dining as much as greasy spoons, rain as much as sun, classical music as much as country, the country as much as the city, walking as much as driving, etc ... a sort of walking contradiction, and in many ways bigger than those. But, I love dogs way more than cats;). I am also always excited to explore new things. I once was a pretty great traveler and that wanderlust is kicking in again (The Four Seasons or a tent on an undeveloped carribean island? works for me.)

I need some in LA! (good coffee spot? cocktails? dining?- Oh, there's one Osterial in Brentwood I love). Otherwise I dig Runyon Canyon and El Matador beach

'Hot Tub Time Machine 2' red-band trailer: The guys go back to the future
Warning: This video is very NSFW. Watch at your own peril.
"Hot Tub Time Machine 2" is coming to movie theaters, because apparently one "Hot Tub Time Machine" just wasn't enough. This time, however, the guys are heading to the future instead of the 1980s.
And it all seems very complicated, especially for a time machine created by a Jacuzzi and many illicit substances.
Why do the guys hit the time machine again? This would be because someone shoots Lou (Rob Corddry, "Children's Hospital") and the others feel like the only solution is to use their hot tub to stop the incident. Unfortunately, they arrive in the future world of 2024 instead.
With the additions of Adam Scott ( "Parks and Recreation") and Gillian Jacobs ( "Community") to the cast, this should be an appropriately ridiculous sequel. "Hot Tub Time Machine 2" is scheduled for a Christmas 2014 release.

Residents carry a wounded person following a blast in the city of Kaohsiung in southern Taiwan early on August 1, 2014. AFP PHOTO / STRINGER
TAIPEI: Multiple gas pipeline explosions ripped through the southern Taiwanese city of Kaohsiung, leaving at least five people feared dead and injuring around 230, officials said Friday.
The explosions, believed to have been caused by a gas leak, triggered a massive inferno with eyewitnesses reporting several bodies littered on the streets.
"At least 228 people who were injured have been rushed to hospitals for treatment," the National Fire Agency said.
Premier Jiang Yi-huah told reporters that at least five people, including a firefighter, were feared dead.
The authorities received calls from residents in Kaohsiung's Cianjhen district about suspected gas leaks late Thursday, which triggered a series of explosions that were powerful enough to rip open roads and overturn cars.
"The local fire department received calls of gas leaks late Thursday and then there was a series of blasts around midnight affecting a area of two to three square kilometres," the fire agency said in a statement .
Emergency workers rushed to the scene and were removing bodies from the area.
Local media reported that emergency rooms in Kaohsiung city hospitals were packed with casualties.
Officials urged people to stay out of the affected areas and local schools were reopened for people to take shelter.
