How to Build a Pegboard Storage Cabinet
These step-by-step instructions demonstrate how to build a simple pegboard cabinet that can greatly increase your storage area.
Draw a diagram of the finished cabinet to use as a reference when building this project. A scale drawing on graph paper makes it easier to get the dimensions right.
Cut the pieces for the cabinet shell from 1/2" birch plywood according to the diagram measurements. Use a framing square to mark and cut straight lines.
Drill holes in the cabinet sides for adjustable shelf pins. To get evenly spaced, standard-sizes holes, clamp a piece of pegboard of top of the plywood sides. Use the holes in the pegboard as a guide to drill partway through to the side pieces.
Use a jig – or just a piece of tape wrapped around the drill bit – to keep from drilling too far into the plywood.
Use wood glue and a nail gun to assemble the "box" of the cabinet, make sure all 90-degree joints are squared off.
Prime and paint the cabinet pieces, allow the primer time to dry before painting. Also prime and paint the pieces that will form the dividers and adjustable shelves.
With the outside shell built, add in the vertical dividers inside the shell. Draw faint lines on the bottom of the shell to help line up the pieces. Tap the dividers into place and make sure they are square. Also, measure at the top and bottom of the dividers to make sure they are parallel. Secure the dividers with screws.
Add the face trim to the front of the cabinet to cover the raw edges of the plywood. The outside edges of the cabinet face will be covered with trim once it's installed. Prime and paint the entire piece as desired.

Manzarek, founding member of The Doors, dies at 74
Manzarek briefly tried to hold the band together on the albums "Other Voices" and "Full Circle," neither of which had critical or commercial success. He played in other bands over the years, working with X and Iggy Pop among others. He also wrote a memoir, "Light My Fire," and a novel, "The Poet In Exile," in which he imagines receiving messages from a Morrison-like artist who had supposedly died.
He produced four albums for X, including another landmark album "Los Angeles," and played off and on with the band for three decades. Doe said Manzarek enjoyed his place in rock 'n' roll history.
"He enjoyed people's company greatly. He was always interested in what had been going on with you and he was an incredible teller of stories, a sort of raconteur of spiritualism and wild moments — 'weird scenes inside the gold mine,'" he said referencing a lyric from "The End."
"Ray loved to talk about and sort of mythologize, but it was all based in truth."
Born and raised in Chicago, Manzarek studied piano as a child and briefly considered a career in basketball. After graduating from DePaul University, he headed west to study film at UCLA. A few months after graduation, he and Morrison met in 1965 on Venice Beach in California. As Manzarek would often recall, Morrison read him some lyrics — Let's swim to the moon/Let's climb through the tide/Penetrate the evening that the/City sleeps to hide" — that became the start of "Moonlight Drive."
"I'd never heard lyrics to a rock song like that before," Manzarek told Billboard in 1967. "We talked a while before we decided to get a group together and make a million dollars."
By 1966, they had been joined by Krieger and Densmore and were a sensation live, especially during the theatrical, Oedipal epic, "The End." They were the house band at the famed Whisky a Go Go in Los Angeles before being signed by Elektra Records and releasing a self-titled album in 1967, one of the most talked-about debuts in rock history.
"Well, to me, my God, for anybody who was there it means it was a fantastic time," Manzarek told The Republican in Massachusetts during an interview last year. "We thought we could actually change the world — to make it a more Christian, Islamic, Judaic, Buddhist, Hindu, loving world. We thought we could. The children of the '50s post-war generation were actually in love with life and had opened the doors of perception. And we were in love with being alive and wanted to spread that love around the planet and make peace, love and harmony prevail upon earth, while getting stoned, dancing madly and having as much sex as you could possibly have."
Manzarek is survived by his wife, Dorothy; his son Pablo and two brothers, Rick and James. Funeral arrangements are pending.

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 10/20/12
As quarterbacks, you could probably count the similarities between Tim Tebow and Tom Brady on one hand. One thing the players do share is that they both played under Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels. That's why New York Jets coach Rex Ryan had Tebow mimicking Brady in the Jets' practice week leading up to Sunday's matchup against the Patriots. Ryan told Pro Football Talk that the Jets were also picking Tebow's brain to learn about McDaniels' offense. There can't be many similarities between the option-style offense that Tebow was running and the current hurry-up, precision-passing offense that the Patriots are running under McDaniels, but any bit helps. If the Jets defense was truly preparing for the Patriots with Tebow under center as Brady, cornerbacks Antonio Cromartie and Kyle Wilson may be shocked at how accurate the real deal is. And how slow he runs. There's been word that the Jets will be using Tebow as a running back on Sunday. If Brady scrambles his way i...

Shop Best Chrysler 300M Car Parts | Search & Shop Chrysler Parts By Models - Parts Inventory - Parts By Year
Founded by mechanic Walter P. Chrysler in the year 1925, theis company was set up after purchasing Maxwell Motor Corporation in Detroit. The company shot to fame for its advanced mechanics in vehicle engineering. Three years in its existence, Chrysler Corporation was able to buy Dodge in its expansion process and also created
the Chrysler DeSoto and Plymouth divisions. No one in the industry thought about introducing vehicles with
a high compression engine, oil filter, air filter and full pressure lubrication.
However Chrysler incorporated these into their vehicles and the company became the second leading player in terms of sales in the automobile industry
of the USA. From 1936 to 1949, Chrysler retained its name and its position. During this period, the company targeted low-price customers through its Plymouth brand and middle-level customers through its DeSoto models. During
the late 1950s and early 1960s Chrysler had two popular marques, namely the Imperial and Valiant. By the year 1961 the DeSoto marque was discontinued
yet the company retained its Valiant, Plymouth, Dodge, DeSoto, Chrysler, and Imperial models. After tasting success, the company got into trouble during
the 70s due to new government rules and an oil deficit. Also with the change in customer needs, Chrysler was forced to bring a new change. In
the 80s, the K-car was well received by the customers and the company was able to regain its sales with the introduction of
the minivan model. After acquiring AMC in the year 1987, Deep was added to the list of brands from Chrysler. Another important merger happened in 1998 with German-based Daimler-Benz to form Daimler Chrysler. Due to unanticipated changes and increase in gas prices lead to a situation where Daimler sold Chrysler to an American equity firm in the year 2007. Even after passing through different hands, Chrysler has
maintained its market for its popular Dodge, Jeep, and Chrysler marques worldwide.
If you own any one of these brands and if you are looking for Chrysler car parts then you can find them in our online catalog. Our Chrysler parts are tested to meet industry standards and are available at affordable rates.

SEATTLE, Sept. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Epik.com, a leading domain name development company, will release a list of DNA and Genetic developed domain names to be auctioned off on September 16, at 1:30 pm at the Bell Harbor Conference Center Bay Auditorium in Seattle.

"Owning a massive amount of Internet Real Estate associated with DNA Sequencing, genetic mapping and personalized medicine can be a windfall for a biotechnology company that wants to control the space and capture the associated Internet search traffic," says Rob Monster, Chairman and CEO of Epik.com. "Companies like Illumina, Complete Genomics, Pacific Biosystems, IBM, Agilent, Alpha Biolab, Ambrygen, Biobasic, Elimbio, Genewiz, Genscript, Ion Torrent, Mpbio, Laragen, Sequenom, Sequetech, Seqwright, etc. could effectively control the marketplace overnight by owning these domains," said Monster.
The auction lot will feature such domains as DNAsequencing.com, DNAsequence.com, DNAmap.com, DNAcode.com, DNAlaboratory.com, GenomeCode.com, GenomeCodes.com, GeneticDoctor.com, GeneticLab.com, GeneticEngineer.com, GeneticTechnology.com and more.

Nice county park. Lots of sites on the water but difficult to get. Big rigs will have a problem getting into some sites. Paved - 30/50 amp service. No cable, no sewer but dump station. Nice restrooms with private showers. No reservations and the strangest way of getting a vacant campsite we have ever seen. You must sign up at the Ranger Station at night and wait for your name to be called across the street from the Ranger Station early the next morning. With locals looking out for each other it is very difficult to get a site here during busy camping season. Don't need rig with you to rent a site - so campsites can set vacant for days with no one using them. Lots of children and groups camping together. Would return but not during busy times. - Bellman
Jun 2014 - $24.00
Nice county campground. The sites are a bit tight for a big rig with slides. There are level sites but you have to pick and choose one that fits your rig. The park employees are very friendly and even trimmed some branches for us. We enjoyed our time here and would come back and stay again. - houseonwheels
Nov 2012 - $23.00
Outstanding park; we have never had a bad county run park. Many showers and restrooms. Clean park, nice people. Will definitely come back when we can stay longer. - krisbw

Stargazing at noon: UAC awards its top honors in Naples
With nary a telescope in sight, it was up close and personal when nearly 250 admirers and honorees past and present gathered for the annual United Arts Council Stars in the Arts luncheon awards presentation on Feb. 28.
The Naples Waldorf Astoria Vista Ballroom accommodated not only the sold-out crowd but also enticing displays of silent auction items as well as plenty of room to mix and mingle, Champagne tulips in hand.
Prizes included restaurant and hotel gift cards and certificates, event tickets, premium wines, home décor, multiple golfing opportunities and artworks.
Auction co-chairwomen Barbara Sigel and Sara Rice Williams were assisted by artist Mally Khorasantchi overseeing bidding action.
Onstage musical entertainment was provided by sisters Misty and Cassie Drake, on violin and viola, respectively. Members of the Anderson String Quartet, they received Naples Music Club chamber excellence awards in 2011 and 2012.
Among 2013 winners were Glen Basham, 20-year Naples Philharmonic Orchestra's concert master, and Charles "Chuck" Gottschalk, orchestra general manager for 20 years and conductor of the Phil's youth orchestra.

text: Molson Coors accelerates sales by improving customer loyalty Molson Coors is the world's fourth largest brewer; it employ 15,000 staff across 30 countries, producing over 65 leading brands. It recently implemented an SAP landscape to enable both control and long-term growth. Central to this is Molson Coors' concept of "Brilliant Execution", enabling excellence in customer engagement with SAP CRM. Business challenge Consumer Products organisations are experiencing significant challenges in maintaining market share and remaining profitable. Particularly in the brewing sector, traditional volume markets are in real decline, with pubs closing in their hundreds per annum, and home drinkers watching their spending. In response to this, Molson Coors identified the need to improve customer acquisition and retention, to improve customer experience by putting customers first, enable brand portfolio expansion into the customer base, and improve productivity within their tele-business units. However, these initiatives could not be supported by the existing IT infrastructure and associated business processes. Sally Surgay, Key Business Lead for SAP CRM, Molson Coors, explains: "As a business we didn't have strong operational transactional performance, so it was difficult to quantify success. The greatest opportunity to be gained from an SAP CRM implementation was the access to insightful data around performance, the chance to put a programme of corrective actions in place and a focus on continuous improvement." Solution Molson Coors embarked on a significant programme to implement the appropriate technical solutions, business changes and process revisions. SAP ECC was chosen to provide the core logistics and finance functions; SAP APO for robust Supply Chain planning and execution; and SAP CRM to coordinate all customer-facing functions, including those of partner organisations. The project was delivered using Bluefin Solutions' agile implementation methodology. Delivery was focused around the themes of Collaboration, Visualisation and Iteration. An environment was created where key business staff could collaborate in design via a common business language, visualise the solution as it evolved through the build phase and have the opportunity to iterate through the cycle as fresh business opportunities emerged. Sally comments: "Greater involvement and influence drove business ownership months in advance of user testing and go-live. Crucially, this reduced risk as our business users were confident in the content of what was delivered as well as knowing how to use it and test it at a detailed level. This led to the business teams championing the solution from day one, with maximum buy-in and minimal issues." Business benefits The new SAP CRM system enables Molson Coors to drive customer sales, gain increased efficiencies throughout the call centre operation, deliver excellence in customer service and realise wider total cost of ownership (TCO) savings. The SAP CRM Interaction Centre now controls the call centres. The benefits of an integrated solution come into play, with outbound call list generation, sales order capture, promotion execution, service ticket entry, complaints and returns as well as operational and management SAP BI reporting capability. The solution provides Molson Coors with the platform for future strategic initiatives - to better understand current performance, create a single controlled way of working, and provide the flexibility and agility to exploit opportunities. Driving customer sales Contact centre agents now capture a weekly average of 10,000 sales orders directly into an integrated SAP Order to Cash cycle (CRM Lean Order Management interface) Contact centre agents up-sell by recommending complimentary products and suggesting timely product promotions The system tracks, real-time, live promotions against volume and value caps, thereby ensuring promotion boundaries are adhered to and protected 100,000 weekly order lines are availability checked in real-time during order capture, hence managing customer expectations and also driving demand analysis via product availability logging. Increased call centre efficiency Improved contact centre agent efficiency Reduced abandoned calls rate Standardisation of processes Call centre managers can track and redistribute workloads between staff using a powerful automated wizard Contact centre agents have one central view of all customer interactions. Improved customer experience Order fulfilment measures are up, thereby increasing customer satisfaction Customers benefit from conversations relating to one version of the truth Measurement of service issue resolution within SLA is enabled. Working with Bluefin Solutions? Bluefin Solutions was chosen as a key implementation partner based on its track record of successful SAP CRM implementations and because "Bluefin Solutions demonstrated outstanding technical knowledge and the interaction with the business was exceptional." explained Sally Surgay, Key Business Lead for SAP CRM, Molson Coors. "A measure of project success is the development of the individuals; the super-users involved in the project all gained something from it that either enhanced their career or their confidence, and every single one of them would willingly participate again - and that, I believe, is down to the Bluefin Solutions culture and approach."

Moms Underestimate Influence on Kids' Obesity
Filed under: In The News, Pregnancy Health, Health
Most moms in the United States underestimate their ability to help prevent obesity in their children, according to a recent survey by HealthyWomen, a leading women's health website.
Studies have shown that moms have a greater effect on their child's weight than dads. Yet, although 87 percent of women believe a parent's obesity influences a child's risk of becoming obese, only 28 percent of those surveyed "assign the responsibility to themselves," the HealthyWomen WomenTALK survey finds.
Further, recent research shows that roughly one in five women are obese when they become pregnant. But just 11 percent of women surveyed say they realize a child's risk of becoming obese more than doubles if the mother is obese during her first trimester of pregnancy.
Forty-six percent of respondents were unsure of the effect of maternal obesity. Studies have confirmed higher risks to newborns and long-term health complications to children are higher for obese women with a body mass index (BMI) of 35 or more, according to the survey.
Mothers are commonly viewed as role models for eating behavior and serve as "gatekeepers" of food, HealthyWomen executive director Elizabeth Battaglino Cahill, RN, says in a news release.
"From an early age, children tend to eat the same foods as their parents, especially mothers, so exposure to nutritious foods like fruits and vegetables is not only setting a good example, but also positioning your child on a lifelong course of good health," she says
The WomenTALK survey queried 1,037 women in an effort to understand obesity and its impact on women and their families, in addition to the influences and relationships that affect obesity in women.
In other findings, while most women understand that obesity yields a greater risk of developing conditions such as high blood pressure, type 2 diabetes and heart disease, less than one-third of those surveyed recognize the increased risk of developing color cancer, gallstones and breast cancer.
"Women need to be their own advocates in the fight against all of these diseases and understanding the influence that friends and family have on the likelihood that they will become obese is part of what's slowing them down," Cahill says. "We need to help women understand that they have the opportunity to positively wield their influence by taking charge of their own nutrition and physical activity habits."
The study found that although most women surveyed are aware they have a greater likelihood of becoming obese if those around them are obese, most did not recognize the impact a friend may have on weight. However, studies have shown you have a much greater chance of becoming obese if you have a friend (57 percent), sibling (40 percent) or spouse (37 percent) who became obese, according to HealthyWomen.
"Empowering and educating women is the best way we know to break the cycle of obesity and promote healthy habits for the life of any woman and her loved ones," Cahill says.

Most mothers have to work now and cannot keep track of what their children are eating. This usually means the children are eating poptarts for breakfast,and pizza or pizza rolls the rest of the time. All of the easy to fix food they are eating is high in fat and calories. Then add in parents' fear to have their children running around outside when they aren't home, video games and television = obesity. I was lucky to only have to work part-time while raising my children and out of eight, only four have weight problems as do I.
10-13-2010 @ 5:31PMKen said...
You can't buy junk food without money and the parents have control of that. If the kids eat junk, the parents paid for it. The kids don't have a car. If they do their dining at McDonalds, the parents drove them there. If the kid is a fat slob, the parents are at fault. No one else.
10-14-2010 @ 3:30AMjmacdow said...
Oh lets blame it on working moms again! I work full time. However my son eats nutritious food. I pack his lunch every day and we cook and eat dinner together every night. Right now he is only 6 but Im proud to say that he does eat 6 (or more) servings of organic fresh fruit and veggies per day and has NEVER tasted Mc Donalds (or any other fast food chain) or even soda. I also make sure he gets an hour of exercise daily (we bike together to his school and back). So this is not an issue of mom's working. Rather its an issue of conscious decision making as parents. We dont have a TV in the house, we dont keep processed junk food in the cupboards and we emphasize physical exercise. Its about having these values as a family.
10-15-2010 @ 4:48PMsz said...
I am sick of parents claiming they can't be good parents because they work. I work full-time and my kids are A students, who are in sports, and eat healthy foods. Obesity is the fault of the parent. And in my opinion the laziness of the parent. Being a good responsible parents means you take the time and do what needs to be done to raise healthy, well adjusted, productive children who will soon be healthy, well adjusted, productive adults. Planning out healthy meals and keeping healthy snacks around the house takes planning and effort. Educating your children about healthy eating habits also takes time and effort. That is the responsibility of the parents.
10-16-2010 @ 3:05PMPatrick Knight said...
Your saying that most moms have to work like it is going out of ones way and unnecessary. And yes i am blaming hard working mothers for their kids obesity. Fathers too, but seeing that single mothers percentage is at a pretty high level, we'll go back to the mother. Children can eat healthy but without portions and excersize they will look just like their oversized parents and live on to make us(AMERCICA) look even fatter. So just because you shelter your kid like the bubble boy and never feed him McDonalds does not mean he will not be fat like you.
10-12-2010 @ 7:47AMAl said...
Karen, while I can hear what you are saying about being busy there are plenty of ways to work around this such as buying the correct food in the first place. If a child is eating the poptarts and pizza who is buying that for the child? It isn't all that hard to decide what your child will eat, set it out and tell them to eat it even if you aren't there or if you are rushed. If the bad for you items aren't there they can't be consumed. You can make food on days off and eat it during the rest of the week. It can already be portioned out even, ready to be reheated. No excuse, sorry!
10-13-2010 @ 9:17PMCDT Baker said...
Al-- unfortunately, the scenario you laid out isn't always feasible, otherwise more people would go by it. Not everyone has time off in which to make decent meals. Not everyone even knows what decent meals consist of. And have you seen the price of fresh fruit and veggies in comparison to a microwave meal? No contest when you're working a stretched budget. It's unfortunate but true--good food is expensive and bad food isn't, and most people couldn't tell the difference if you gave them a nutrition facts handout and a dietician.
10-14-2010 @ 3:37AMjmacdow said...
To answer CDT baker:
Perhaps people dont have the time to cook every night but one can cook for the entire week during 1/2 day on Sunday. I agree that some processed foods are cheaper than more nutritious foods (one only has to look at the price of brown rice vs. white rice ). However you can still eat well on a budget. Rice and beans are inexpensive. Veggies that are in season are also within most people's means.
People have to learn what our grandparents knew about meal planning, cooking and eating well on a budget. Unfortunately between TV and our lifestyle, we became dependent on 'convenience' and have totally forgot how to do these things.
10-12-2010 @ 8:10AMlindee said...
Fat parents have fat kids. They eat constantly. They watch TV or play video games. They don't exercise or eat healthy foods.
It is sad it took an epidemic of obesity to make schools aware of the situation, but at least many of them are trying.
My niece's elementary school built a 1/4 mile track on the playground and they walk it twice a day. Her school sells soda in vending machines and at lunch because they get a $250,000 kickback from COKE. That is wrong, but they need the money.
10-12-2010 @ 8:34AMDebi said...
Oh! BIG surprise....its all Mom's fault! so is everything else in the world! Get in line Honey Berk behind everyone else that blames MOM for the ills of the world!
10-12-2010 @ 2:31PMTed said...
It's just placing the onus back on the parents. I don't know why anyone would take offense to this article when all it's saying is we can set into motion a healthy lifestyle for a child if the parents are willing to embrace it.
10-12-2010 @ 9:55AMCindy M said...
Yes, let's blame it all on mom. As if we don't have enough to feel guilty about! Nothing's mentioned about the fast food they serve for lunch in kids' schools. And by the way, I'm overweight but all of my four adult children are thin. They've never had weight problems. So much for your statistics.
10-15-2010 @ 10:26PMMike said...
Cindy dear,
That's why they are called STATISTICS. They are an attempt to speak a general trend on a large population of people based on a random sample. They always have error margins, and they are by definition samples, so they can't stick 100% to anyone. Why is it scientific thought has been completely replaced by uneducated opinion?
This article is based solely on the idea that mothers have more influence over their children, or are more likely to plan their childrens' meals. It doesn't take into account families where fathers are primary meal planners and domestic workers. It doesn't take account for a lot of things. There's no reason for anyone to scream red. It's like you see a problem where you want to see a problem, regardless of its existence.
10-12-2010 @ 10:23AMmomof2 said...
sorry folks, my parents were thin, dad was underweight actually, I am overweight and have 2 sons 21 and 9, both quite slender, and have been all their lives. AS IS THEIR FATHER! I am sick of heredity being ruled out as a factor, I work my ass off and eat healthy, I am over weight but have perfect blood pressure, cholestrol, and no health issues. It is not a one size fits all world, so stop with the blame game
10-12-2010 @ 11:05AMSAMEHERE said...
Same here mom.
10-12-2010 @ 10:20AMJake said...
How about we start to teach how to eat healthy in first grade, and keep it up till kids graduate! Its all about teach people how, and what to eat. Then if you want to be fat, and a burden to society you can pay the price!
10-16-2010 @ 11:13PMjenny said...
So Jake,
you say fat people are a burdon to society. Are people that are mentally challenged a burdon? What about senior citizens, are they a burdon as well? Its people like you that make this world a cruel world and its possible that people that think like you are the one's that are the burdon.
10-18-2010 @ 1:47AMsharla said...
Jake your an idiot....explain how us fatties are a burden to you..you dont pay my bills, you dont buy my food...hmmm, do you know the definition of the word burden, you must really hate yourself, are you the type of person that sits around talking about everyone else to make your miserable existence seem tolerable???? I do believe if there is any one group of people that could be considered a burden its the idiots like you!!!
10-12-2010 @ 11:14AMBrenda said...
To show a picture from the 50's of an at home mom doesn't cut it with me. Junk food and was only the beginning of its life and pop was a treat on a rare occasion as was candy. My mom was the food gatekeeper and we were never hungry or malnurished. She also chased us outside to play on any nice day.
10-18-2010 @ 1:39AMsharla said...
who was your mom, betty f'n crocker...lol...okay everyone remembers how food was prepared back in the day with all that lard and butter, but things werent as processed as they are now, food these days has alot to contribute to weight issues, even if you buy healthy things, there is always some kind of preservative in it, oh and organic food is so costly, im a single mom of four kids and have one chuby child out of the bunch, i buy fruits and veggies, and dont feed them red meat very healthy meal plans, but for some reason he still gains weight and he is the most active kids i got, back flips and runs all day long, i think that we are all just suppose to be different, good rule to live by the more you eat (no matter what it is) the more you have to do!!!!!

Reg Presley, Who Sang 'Wild Thing' With The Troggs, Dies
Originally published on Tue February 5, 2013 1:07 pm
Grab a guitar, hit those three chords (A, D, E) and take three minutes to pay your respects:
Reg Presley, who sang Wild Thing with The Troggs in 1966, is dead. He was 71 and had suffered a series of strokes recently.
The band's website says Presley "died peacefully" on Monday, "surrounded by all of his family."
NPR's Neda Ulaby tells our Newscast Desk that:
Presley grew up in a small town called Andover, England, and never moved away. He went to trade school and kept his job as a bricklayer until after Wild Thing's success. The Troggs went on to score seven hits through the 1960s, and Presley toured with the group until just a few years ago.
Off the stage, Presley was not much of a wild thing. He avoided drugs and had been married for 47 years.
The Guardian offers "Reg Presley and the Troggs: the best songs in clips."

Trains between Mainz, Köln, Amsterdam, Paris
In about a month my husband and I will be starting our journey in Mainz, Germany from there we will go to Amsterdam via Köln. Then later from Amsterdam Centraal to Paris Nord. All high speed trains... My question is how early do we arrive at each station with luggage before our departure times. I think/hope we will be able to print tickets using DB Bahn for the Mainz -> Köln -> Amsterdam. Then I think we print a confirmation that we scan at the station to get tickets from Amsterdam -> Paris using nshispeed.com. Can anyone confirm that either of those assumptions is true? Not sure if either of them add time to the amount of time we should allow. Also, what will we do with our larger pieces of luggage? Will they be secure or do we need to take any particular precautions? Thanks for any help!

Re: [softrock40] General Coverage SDR?
Expand Messages
- I think you have just pretty much described the Clifton Labs Z-10000U. I
plan to use one of these between the RX antenna loop on my transceiver and
the input filters on a SoftRock Lite +Xtall, chiefly to eliminate local
oscillator feedback to the receiver. Currently, the LO is S9 +30-40 in the
receiver, which won't do.
From the specs:
Output Impedance 50 ohms; short circuit protected.
Reverse Isolation Typically 70 dB at 4.915 MHz; depends on
cable routing as stray coupling becomes
important at this level of isolation. Less
isolation at higher frequencies. See Section
1.3.3. [note Jack now thinks the isolation may be more like 90 db]
Bandwidth Depends on gain. If set for +6 dB net gain,
usable bandwidth >100 MHz. (See typical performance plot)
Input Impedance Depends on frequency and attachment
technique. Greater than 1.5 K ohm to 10 MHz, (See typical
performance plot).

Mitola's book (Software Radio Architecture). He suggests that 130dB
is the dynamic range for HF-RF. He suggests an HF-IF (in the .2-
10MHz range) sould be 72-120dB. Most other places that I've heard it
probably reference back to him, although I think I saw it derived in
at least one other independent book somewhere.
Most radios are narrow-band, with filters, AGCs, switchable amps &
attenuators, and other gadgets to translate the level of the
currently received signal into a narrower dynamic range that the
radio can handle.
I think he is suggesting that the 130dB is the minimum for directly
feeding an A/D converter without overloading, but still reaching the
HF noise floor.
Obviously, we can use the same range-limiting (or maybe it's better
to say range-adjusting) tools if we are using an A/D receiver
approach. Sticking a preamp and/or attenuator inline will help, as
long as it can be switched out (or the gain adjusted with an AGC
loop). Applying filters to remove large unwanted signals (such as
the US AM broadcast band) is another possibility. I know hams have a
hard time (with normal radios) trying to work 160M with nearby AM
broadcast stations, and often resort to filtering.
But, to a SDR "purist", sticking filters, preamps, attenuators, etc,
may all be considered band-aids to mask the real issue - not enough
dynamic range. And, they all potentially hamper optimum reception in
one manner or another. Like in a traditional superhet, these band-
aids may be necessary for a while yet.
I forget where to find the noise floor on the various ham bands.
But, I'm totally guessing that it's around -128dBm on some HF band.
To need 130dB of dynamic range with that small a MDS signal means the
MAXIMUM signal would be over 0dBm! That's a ton of signal. But, I
hear some people who live near AM broadcast (US), or SW broadcast
(europe) transmitters may get that strong of a signal. Running
multiple stations nearby (field day, etc), may also create this
There was a QEX article in Sept/Oct 2002 (The DX Prowess of HF
Receivers) that indicated the BDR of a K2 is 133dB (20kHz) and 126dB
(for 5kHz).
Feeding an antenna directly into an A/D input may be folly for a
while yet, especially during electrical storms. I don't think
anybody plans to have an A/D with that high a dynamic range!!

What's the purpose of the umbilical cord?
Babies in the womb receive nourishment and oxygen through the placenta, which is attached to the inner wall of the mother's uterus. The placenta is connected to the baby by the umbilical cord, which attaches to the baby through an opening in the baby's abdomen. After a baby is born, the umbilical cord is clamped and cut close to the baby's body in a painless procedure, leaving an umbilical stump.
How long will my baby have an umbilical stump?
The stump will dry up and drop off in about 7 to 21 days, leaving a small wound that may take a few days to heal.
Does the stump require special care?
It should be kept clean and dry. Fold the baby's diaper away from the stump (or buy newborn diapers with a cut-out space for the stump) so it is exposed to the air and won't come in contact with urine.
The American Academy of Pediatrics used to recommend cleaning the base of the stump daily with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol.But researchers have found that untreated cords heal faster than alcohol-swabbed cords and carry no more risk of infection, so the AAP has changed their recommendation.
Until your baby's umbilical stump falls off:
- Give your baby sponge baths instead of tub baths.
- Have your baby wear just a diaper and loose T-shirt in warm weather to let air circulate and speed the drying process.
- Avoid dressing your baby in bodysuit-style undershirts.
- Never attempt to pull off the stump, even if it looks like it's hanging by a thread.
When the stump falls off, you may notice a little blood on the diaper, which is normal. Sometimes after the stump falls off, there may be some clear or yellow fluid drainage and some bits of lumpy flesh may remain. These "umbilical granulomas" may disappear on their own or may need to be treated by your child's doctor. But they aren't serious and don't contain nerves, so any necessary treatment is painless for your baby.
What are the signs of infection?
Infections are rare, but consult your healthcare provider if:
- Your baby cries when you touch the cord or the skin next to it.
- The skin around the base of the cord is red.
- The stump smells foul or gives off a yellowish discharge.
Also call the practitioner if the stump bleeds continuously, as this may be a sign of a bleeding disorder.

BALTIMORE -- We're four games into the six-game Battle of the Beltways for 2012, and by virtue of last night's 2-1 victory the Orioles have already clinched at least a split of the season
By Rich DubroffCSNwashington.com
We have finally reached the final series of the Nationals' 32-game stretch against nothing but NL East and AL East opponents.
Game in a nutshell: On a steamy night on South Capitol Street, the Nationals stayed hot against the Rays.
How good has the 1-2 punch of Stephen Strasburg and Gio Gonzalez been this year? Well, consider that the Nationals' record when either of their aces starts is an astounding 22-5.

Electing to bat, Mumbai lost two early wickets, after which the duo constructed a wonderful third-wicket alliance worth 234 that put Mumbai on the ascendancy on the opening day of the Ranji Trophy quarterfinal.
At stumps, Jaffer's unbeaten 137 (256b, 14x4, 3x6) and Tendulkar's 108 (233b, 10x4, 1x6) propelled Mumbai to 272 for three.
Early SetbacksThe focus obviously was on Tendulkar, with him taking the centre stage for the first time since calling time on his One-day career.
A holiday crowd in the region of 500 had come to watch Tendulkar play and the master obliged. He started in a hurry and was ease at driving on the front foot, but once into thirties he allowed Jaffer to dictate. He took his own time in getting to his 18th Ranji and 80th first class hundred. Tendulkar, however, did not survive the day as Vahora got one to nip back and send the off stump crashing.
The incident was the only blemish in an otherwise controlled innings. Sunday's knock would have done a world of good for his confidence. It might even help him regain his lost touch and end his glittering Test career on a high.
When he reached his hundred, a fan charged onto the field and insisted on touching Tendulkar's feet. It embarrassed the master, he had no choice but to oblige.

I LOVE this conditioner, I have been using this off and on for the past 4 years. when I had my first two kids my hair shed like crazy, so bad that I had spots around my hairline that looked like it was receding, it freaked me out!!! My hair eventually came back and then I got pregnant with our 3rd baby. My stylist had a 1 year old and I asked her if she had lost a bunch of hair after having him and she said "no, I used Nioxin the whole time". I decided to faithfully use my Nioxin my entire pregnancy and after. I am happy to report that I never lost any hair, my hair is still very thick (my baby is 9 months old now). I will never stop using this. It never weighs my hair down and rinses completely clean.

This is just the basic conditioner that have menthdol that will cause some tinging in the scalp but never put this on the scalp, even though it state that this could...don't try anything that is on the label..i tried and end up with oily scalp. Hate this to the core! Won't repurchase.

DH loves this. Some time ago, when he was sure stress was causing his hair to fall out, we began to notice more and more hair on the pillow by morning. A woman at my salon happened to be a representative for Nioxin, and I took a bottle of the shampoo and scalp therapy home. My husband has not used another shampoo and conditioner since. He loves the minty scent (not too girly, he says) and the combination of the products actually works. Recently his hairdresser commented on how thick his hair felt. Good stuff!

I bought this in an introductory kit at Ulta.The hair at both my temples is
gradually falling out and the hairline is receding a bit.This conditioner says it is for fine,thinning hair.I did not like it.It coats my hair shaft and weighs it down.I need something to help fluff up what I have, not flatten it
even more!Before noon my hair would be coating down at the roots!I was hoping to find something to at least improve the appearance of my hairline w/o having to consider Rogaine or something similiar.This isn't it!

Although I have color and highlights, I find the conditioner for colored hair to be too heavy for me so I use the conditioner for normal hair but love this product! I have used it for years and am sorry any time that I switch. My only complaint is that sometimes the bottle opening gets jammed and I have to take something like a toothpick and get out the clog.

I just started using this which is why I did not give it 5 lippies just yet. I have an incredible amount of thinning at my hairline and I was recommended this by like 5 people in the salon where I work. It reminds me of Paul Mitchell's Tea Tree Line, only not as strong. I can feel it tingling when my hair hits my back after I rinse it out and the condtioner and shampoo both clean and moisterize my hair well. But it is too soon to tell if this will make my hair thicke up again, so only time will tell. (UPDATE...3 WEEKS LATER); It works! My hair is growing back! It feels like this cushion of thickness at the base of my hair and the girl who noticed my thinness even commented that my hair is a LOT thicker. I have mainly just been using the follicle booster and the scalp therapy foam and not even the shampoo but I assume together they all do a great job.

I used this with the Nioxin Hair Cleanser because my hair stylist recommended it for my dry, flaky scalp. This immediately soothes the scalp, it tingles and feels refreshing. I even noticed hair growing in along my hairline--a bonus I wasn't even seeking! No more flakiness, and it does not weigh down my fine hair like other conditioners. I can even use it directly on my scalp!
Also, these Nioxin products DO NOT build up in your hair like other products I've tried such as TIGI, Biolage, Wella etc. The best!

I really liked the shampoo and conditioner for the Actives line. I've tried many different shampoos and conditioners: Rusk, Tigi, Dove, Got2be, Pantene, and my least favorite, Herbal Essences. The shampoo lathered nicely and it thoroughly cleansed my hair with no heaviness nor leaving any residue. My hair is fairly healthy, so I can't really say if it helped with damage, oiliness, or dyness, but I do have really thin hair. When I tie my hair up, many of my hairs fall out when I let it down later. When I use conditioner, my hair falls out even more regardless if it was up or down that day. I didn't see that happen as much after using Actives Cleanser and Scalp Therapy. There was actually significantly less hair falling out. My brother, who has very rough, not shiny hair, used this duo, and just after one washing, his hair, to my surprise, actually looked healthier. It was softer and shinier. The white tea antioxidant (I believe it is the most potent antioxidant out of the teas) is an added bonus. I thought it was reasonably priced. I got both the shampoo and conditioner for $45 including shipping and handling on eBay for the HUGE 33.8 oz bottles. I thought it was a very good bargain, though I wish that it had come with a pump instead. I would recommend this to anyone with fine hair, especially for those who lose hair often. I would totally repurchase this in the future.

Eric Owens to Receive Opera Index Distinguished Achievement Award
Opera Index presents its 34th Distinguished Achievement Award to the powerful and charismatic bass-baritone Eric Owens at its annual black-tie winter gala on Sunday, January 13. The gala, held in the Grand Salon of the JW Marriott Essex House at 160 Central Park South, begins at 6 p.m. with a reception in the Petit Salon. Presenting the award to Mr. Owens is a longtime champion of his career, Janet Stovin, the vice president of Opera Index. Last year's Distinguished Achievement Award was presented to opera pioneer and founder of Opera Orchestra of New York, Eve Queler.
The Opera Index Winter Gala, hosted by its president Murray Rosenthal and including guests from opera and the theater, is the highlight of the non-profit organization's year of activities, which since 1984 has boosted the careers of almost 300 young singers through its annual vocal competition, among them Eric Owens who was a winner of the Opera Index Vocal Competition in 1993. He is the second Opera Index Competition-winner to receive the Distinguished Achievement Award. The first was Deborah Voigt.
Opera Index received 261 applications from singers wishing to compete in its 2012 vocal competition. On October 9 and 10, 78 young singers took part in preliminary auditions at Hunter College's Lang Hall before a panel of distinguished judges--Ken Benson, Robert Lombardo, Elaine Malbin, Lenore Rosenberg, Cesare Santeramo, Jane Shaulis, Albert Sherman, and Diana Soviero. In final auditions two days later, 30 remarkable young singers returned to compete for 16 prizes totaling $50,000.
The January 13 gala program will feature performances by eight of the 2012 Opera Index Vocal Competition awardees. They are baritone Takaoki Onishi, who won the top prize of $10,000, baritone Anthony Clark Evans, who received $7,500; mezzo-soprano Jennifer Johnson Cano, $5,000, tenor Adam Bonanni, $4,000; baritone Luthando Qave, $3,500; bass-baritone Jeongcheol Cha, $3,000, tenor Alexander Lewis, $2,500, and soprano Courtney Johnson, who received a $1,000 Encouragement Grant.
Two competition winners--soprano Danielle Pastin, who received $5,000 and bass Matthew Anchel, who received $2,500—are unable to attend but will perform at a future event.
Also awarded were six $1000 Encouragement Grants to mezzo-soprano Sarah Mesko and baritones Jonathan Beyer, Tobias Greenhalgh, Emmett O'Hanlon, Nickoli Strommer, and Sean Sullivan.
Tickets for the Opera Index Winter Gala range from $350 to $1,000. More information and tickets are available by phone at 212-706-9550

They are the wounded who survive, living, breathing testaments to 21st century military medicine, who work on the front lines of ground-breaking advancements, giving America's wounded a chance of survival like never before in warfare.
"This is a historic achievement. We've now saved more than 90 percent of the soldiers who were hit in the battlefield and how they accomplished that, how they got there is important for lessons throughout medicine about what we can do, Dr. Atul Gawande tells CBS News correspondent Randall Pinkston.
Gawande is a researcher at the Harvard School of Public Health.
The difference between today's survival rate to those of war's past is staggering.
"You go back to the Revolutionary War and 42 percent of those soldiers who were hit in battle died," Gawande says. "By World War II, it was under 30 percent who had died from their wounds. And, yet, by the Korean War, Vietnam War and even the Persian Gulf War, it was around 25 percent who died.
"We didn't make a massive improvement and, yet, in this war we have."

The Life I Left Behind
I'm the only one who knows the secrets her friends have hidden, the mistakes the police have made.
I'm the only one who can warn her she's still in danger.
I know exactly who attacked her.
He's the same man who killed me.
Precious Thing
What did your best friend do for you?
Rachel and Clara promised they would be best friends forever; nothing was ever going to come between.
They met at school when Rachel was the new girl and Clara was the friend everyone wanted and instantly fell under one another's spell. But now in their twenties Rachel has the career, the flat and the boyfriend while Clara is recovering from a breakdown. Then Clara vanishes. Is it abduction, suicide or something else altogether?
Imagine discovering something about your oldest friend that forces you to question everything you've shared together and everything you know about yourself. The truth is there, will you see it?
Hello and welcome to my website. I started out as a journalist and a television news reporter but gave up the day job a few years ago to write psychological thrillers.
My new book, The Life I Left Behind is out in January and you'll be able to find out more about it, me and any upcoming events here.

Maine same-sex couples marry in first hours of law
Not everyone was getting married right away.
Suzanne Blackburn and Joanie Kunian, of Portland, were among those in line to get their license at midnight, but they planned to have their marriage ceremony later. One of their grandchildren wanted them to get married on Valentine's Day.
"I don't think that we dared to dream too big until we had the governor's signature," Blackburn said. "That's why it's so important, because it feels real."
Bridges and Snell already considered themselves married because they'd held a commitment ceremony attended by friends and family six years ago. Nonetheless, they thought it was important to make it official under state law, as Snell's two daughters watched.
Katie and Carolyn Snell, the daughters, said the ceremony made formal what they knew all along to be true about the couple.
"It's just a piece of paper," said Katie Snell. "Their love has been there, their commitment has been there, all along. It's the last step to make it a true official marriage because everything else has been there from the start."
