Q:My installation requires the t-mold to be installed over the premium underlayment. Do I need to "remove" this underlayment in order to "glue" the t-mold directly to the wood subfloor?
0 answers
Q:I have need for a T-molding that is longer than the 6' - do these come in any longer sections? If not is there a preferred way to make a joint?
0 answers
Q:I bought the T-molding, but it did not come with any track to put it down. Is this a mistake? If not, how do I get the track to snap it into?
1 answer
A:This does not come with any track, these types are generally installed as any solid hardwood installation would be. However, this is for a floating bamboo floor. You can use a urethane adhesive in a caulking tube and apply a thick bead of adhesive directly to the subfloor and sit the molding in place allowing the bottom of the T-molding to sit into the adhesive. Apply weights on top of the molding until the adhesive cures. If the bottom of the molding does not reach the subfloor, cut a shim and glue it to the bottom of the t-molding and once cured glue the whole piece to the subfloor. The T-molding has a total thickness of 1/2" the vertical part of the T-molding is about 1/4" thick.
Q:what is the best way to fasten the threshold or T-moulding on a floating Tongling floor over concrete. i read that they may be fastened by predrilling, not sure i want to put a hole in the moulding. can it be glued?
1 answer
A:Yes you could glue it down using a 100% urethane construction adhesive.

Will Brown resign for lying about meeting with "kings and queens?" He's lost my confidence, not that I had much. Are we going to have to endure the pickup truck and the $500 barn jacket again?
So is the Republican indirectly accusing the Mayor of Holyoke as being "derelict in his duty," because he is not supporting a casino in that city?
The Republican should be writing editorials about how the entire city should be voting on this issue, not just a ward. The way the casino law is written is ridiculous in that regard, as if the rest of a city isn't affected by a casino within its borders.
Best points yet, greendragon. If anyone has been paying attention, the new public high schools being built, or proposed in our area, and in other parts of Mass., have pricetags that come in lower than this Cathedral pipe dream and they serve more students.
With declining enrollments in both public high schools and certainly some Catholic ones, this makes no sense. Are they looking for the insurance company to pay for a new school, using the tornado as a convenient, although unfortunate, reason? What were there plans to update the building prior to the tornado? They must have had some, no? Where was that money coming from and where is it now to add to the $15M they could get.
Let's face it, the diocese can't/won't pay for much and they don't have many alumni donors or fundraising $ coming in. This impasse is no sales pitch either. You can't sell many prospective students and parents on a old middle school facility in Wilbraham.
Oh, I forgot. WickedSmaaht, since you seem in the know, where are the members coming from?
No HCC's plan doesn't have to made public, but for anyone interested in joining maybe it should be. As I wrote, that's the real story. What demand is there in WMass for a "new," private club? Private clubs are struggling around here. Public and semi-private courses are struggling, hence the recent auctions.
The new Crestview owner is in the golf business and this article shows he understands the challenges and is responding to it. HCC only did well as a private club when it had amenities other than golf and in a much different economy. Pool, tennis, etc., all gone now. There are too many other private clubs in the area that have better golf courses, like Longmeadow and Springfield and amenities for other family activities. What's the draw to join Hampden? A lot of changes have been made under other owners as well.
Mr. Kinney -
Kudos on being the someone who finally writes some pieces about the golf business' decline in recent years. I don't understand why the newspaper has waited this long to cover a story that's been widely covered nationally. It takes multiple auctions to rise to the proper level to cover? It's even harder to believe when the paper has a golf column!!!! It's been no secret area courses have been struggling for years now.
Mr. Fleury has the proper mindset in today's golf business world, give people options and don't continue to force the old model of play 18 holes, eat lunch, have drinks, etc. Not many can devote that time.
It would be very enlightening to hear details of the business plan the new owners of Hampden Country Club have. They are moving in the opposite direction of Crestview and trying to make a private club out of a public/semi-private club. Where are the members in this depressed golf market going to come from? Many of the private clubs in the vicinity of HCC have been struggling for members for the last few years. Building a new pro shop, practice area and tweaking the course aren't necessarily going to attract enough members to make it viable as a public course. Unless they know something most don't.
They never "had it" in soccer. So many smaller countries, with so many fewer people playing soccer just outclass us. Finally, USA soccer is looking/making changes in their program. There is little creativity in soccer in the US. Teams are too focused on winning and players don't want to make any mistakes so they play conservatively. Not a recipe for success.
Sounds like a great spot for a biomass plant, perhaps with its own turnpike exit.
Mr. Berry -
I'll join some other posters in asking for a follow up story. Please send a reporter to the Stearns Square music nights, curiously renamed "Bike Night" (hey geniuses, way to make everyone feel welcome!) and see if this crackdown is being enforced there, or will it be a night to just look the other way, grateful for the fact that it draws people to downtown.
How sad this all is.
The league has been lax in not having a code of conduct before now, most leagues of this type do. In addition, they are coming across as incredibly wishy-washy in being quoted here as wondering if they can prevent anyone from playing if their parents don't sign the pledge. I'm not a lawyer, but as a private league, if that's one of the rules of participation, what would stop them from requiring this?
Thanks, Patrick Johnson, for your deliberate attempt to draw attention to The Republican by finding, and for writing in such a manner, a story that is designed to capitalize on the "war" on holidays "outrage," that is supposedly out there. Ho hum. The school, and most schools, have been doing this for years, perhaps without a name, but just having a theme day with green clothing, etc. Now we're supposed to be shocked?!
It would be more interesting to hear from people who celebrate St. Patrick's Day, especially those that have no Irish heritage, as to why they are doing that. Now, that's really odd!!
The idea that enough people around here care anything about Flint or Calipari to warrant writing anything about either one is crazy.
Hockey -
Are you saying there is no demand of golf in the Springfield area during this unseasonable winter? The courses you list are all in Westfield. There are a number of courses open statewide, some running up to 150 cart fees in one day. I don't see any tree work going on at either course that would prevent play. One person in the proshop to take a green fee is pretty much all that's needed. It doesn't have to be fully open.
For wicked: A piece was done a few years ago on the prior "new" owners of HCC. They failed. There isn't much a new owner can do with renovations to get private members expect have bargain rates. It's not like there are all these people out there aspiring to be members of HCC.
Scott -
Kudos, to a point.
At least something has finally hit the local media about the state of golf in the local area and in general. Aside from Dave Barry in the Wilbraham-Hampden Times recently, there has been no coverage of golf business in the Republican other than to report on the HCC auction and in the past, other auctions. None of these articles explored any reasons for the courses changing hands, talked to prior owners about what happened or new owners about how they thought they could make it work better or placed it in the context of what's happening in the golf industry.
Not sure why such a story would be ignored for so long when for a number of years now it has been regular national news. Personally, I attribute it to the "cheerleading" of most things around here, rather than any investigative reporting. In fact, the Republican's own golf writer seems more interested in reporting on what courses are open this winter, weeks of reminders about the Tee Party and who got a hole-in-one. I don't listen to the local golf radio show, Is it even a topic there? For anyone that has lived in this area for awhile just the influx of print, radio and TV ads for local courses would be a clue that these are tough times.
Even in your report, the GM of WCC comments go unchallenged. Wilbraham has had many of the same troubles, membership is down, prices have been lowered and they have had regular open houses to try and drum up business. People are not playing more golf as you say in closing, but somehow the GM is optimistic. The golf club model is being forced to change. New ideas of groups of courses using health club-like fee systems, variable pricing based on traffic, etc. are proving successful.
A great story would be how HCC expects to thrive under new ownership. Here is a club that began private, went semi-private, then public. Over that time, any amenities were allowed to fall into disrepair. What's the attraction for a prospective member or family? An OK golf course, awful driving range, no pool, no tennis (like many other WMass clubs close to it). Was it mismanged before or was there just not enough play? Rumor has it that they are going to charge more for membership than their competitors. For what? Building a new pro shop isn't a big draw.
The demographics of the golfers in WMass are dominated by those looking for cheap golf and those that have little taste for the "country club" lifestyle. There have long been too many courses per captia in this area. As in other areas of the country, some will go away. If only one of Jack Nicklaus' 22 grandchildren plays golf with any regularity, you know the sport is in trouble.
A couple of other points:
- You missed Scottish Meadow in Warren, apparently going to be a solar energy facility at last check
- With the mild winter, and many courses around the state open and doing pretty good business, why are Veterans and Franconia closed? Surely they could be taking in greens fees most of this winter with minimal staffing.
Why is there never any backstory to these Six Flags announcements? They always make it seem like Six Flags is doing something brand new, instead of just recycling a ride from another property. One that doesn't have the greatest history either.
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giant_Inverted_Boomerang
I wish the guy well, but does anyone else think he's in denial?
His son drowns and in the two weeks afterward, he's back coaching and going on job interviews and now uprooting himself and maybe his family to go to Miami.
Fran -
Thanks for confirming for me what I've suspected all along. The Republican wants to rah-rah virtually everything that happens in the area, especially if it involves business or something the newpaper backs. This explains, and does the lack of reporters, the absence of sorely needed investigative journalism in all areas. Congrats to you for coming out and saying that you were punished for trying to be truthful about the attendance figures.
Instead of Bruce Landon's biased writing about how the figures are skewed and how other cities' prices make the Falcons look good, a more interesting story would be about how the attendance figures are padded and how poorly some AHL teams are doing at the gate, perhaps including the Falcons.
So where are the "real" attendance figures? You don't say that you can't reveal them. If you introduce a topic, you need to explain it in some way.
Can someone crunch the # of extra pounds of CO2 being generated by all these extra cars in the park and guage the impact on the trees, etc. that are in the park. Not really the mission of a park to be used for this.
Peter -
A balance to the mostly rah-rah stories The Republican prints would be to start a periodic "fact check" type sidebar that provides updates on local pols/officials quotes on developments in their specific cities and towns.
It would especially be enlightening to see a list of how many times someone has claimed that a project, business, etc., was going to "revitalize" Springfield. It's great that this company is adding employees in a poor economy, but is anyone really expecting them to be eating out every workday and shopping regularly with their hourly wages? If anything, much of the "revitalization" $ will be gobbled up by parking fees, like the School Dept.
Some of these quotes involve quite recent projects, like the court building on State St. and the moving of the School Dept. Isn't Sitar within easy walking distance of the School Dept.? Has anything opened in reaction to the increase in people on lower State St.? Wasn't all that work going to "revitalize" that area?
No doubt we will continue to here this word over and over again. Union Station will "revitalize" Springfield, tornado rebuilding will too, it never ends and never does "revitalize."

The earlier seasons were very good but by season 5 -it is almost a different show.
The massive drop in quality is most obvious when you marathon the series, it degenerates from cutting quips and witty remarks to episodic gimmicks and 'wackiness' -all the while shrouded in an air of "sophistication" which comes off as cheap pretension.
It went from a show about a middle aged man dealing with a new city, a new job and new relationships with his family -to a show about a surprisingly famous middle aged man who when not bedding super models and 'swimsuit model and sophisticated scholar' hybrids, is getting himself involved in a whole lot of wacky hijinks by doing some of the most moronic 'worst than Mr Bean' things possible.
I would certainly have some very harsh words for Charles Douglass (the creator of laugh tracks) if he were still alive, he should be punished for the enormous amount of unfunny that he has helped make it on screen.

Video:Treat Horse Blisters and Soreswith Tina from Kentucky Wildlife
Leaving sores and blisters untreated can be harmful to your horse. Learn how to find, clean, and treat them.See Transcript
Transcript:Treat Horse Blisters and SoresHi, my name is Tina and I'm from Kentucky Wildlife for About.com. Today I'm going to show you the proper way to treat a blister.
Finding Horse Sores and BlistersYou can find sores on their ankles, they can get bite marks on their chest, they can get fly bites on their bellies, and during this season you have to watch out for tics that can fester in their manes. If you feel down their manes you can find the tick and just pull it out like you would your cat or dog.
Ointments to Treat Horse Sores and BlistersThis is a salve called Furazone. You can use this for any cuts, wounds, blisters that might come up on a horse to keep it from getting infected. We also have Alu Spray, which is the same thing but it's in an aerosol spray. If you come across an injury to your horse, for instance this looks like a little cut or blister of some kind.
Wash and Treat the SoresYou will take soap and water and thoroughly clean it off, get all the debris away from it. Take the Furazone and dab it on there. The main thing is keeping it clean every day, check it the next morning. If there isn't any swelling on it then you know you're on the right track for a good healing.

The elephant and the ostrich ate all the Euros (or: It's a bull shit market alright)
Said one delegate to the other: I didn't even know we had elephants!
Said the other: Oh, we do, we do. We just don't like to talk about it.
'Despite being the most pressing issue facing the EU, Greece was kept off the summit agenda which, apart from finalising the fiscal pact, largely focused on a debate about how to create jobs and stimulate growth in the EU while implementing spending cuts and ruling out public spending on soaring unemployment.'
Yup. That makes sense.
As much sense as having a WHO crisis meeting and keeping AIDS or malaria off the summit agenda.
Said the ostrich to the elephant: what the fuck are you doing in the hole I just dug?
Said the elephant: Ssshhhttt!!!

Fort Pierce gives preliminary approval to redistricting plan
FORT PIERCE — More than 4,000 residents are on their way to voting in a new election district this year.
Commissioners voted 4-1 at their Tuesday night meeting in favor of preliminary approval of a plan they didn't approve last month to move the dividing line between the city's two election districts to balance the population changes in the past 10 years. Commissioner Eddie Becht was the only dissenting vote.
The plan must come back before commissioners twice for final approval before the end of next month, which city officials said is the redistricting deadline.
The new boundary between the two districts would stretch from Okeechobee Road east to Virginia Avenue, then east to South 23rd Street, north to Birch Street, northeast to South 21st Street, north to Georgia Avenue, and then east to U.S. 1.
The old boundary was from Okeechobee Road east to South 25th Street, then north to Delaware Avenue and east to U.S. 1.
Based on 2010 Census numbers, the city's population increased by more than 4,000 people since the previous census in 2000. The census found 16,117 people live in District 1 and 25,473 people live in District 2.
Redistricting would move the boundary of the city's two election districts south to account for the growing population of the city's southern district.
The plan puts 20,004 people in District 1 and 21,586 people in District 2.
Becht dissented because he said the point of redistricting is to balance population, and the plan would give the district with less population more representation.
Commissioners have tabled making a decision about redistricting for the past several months.
At their Oct. 3 meeting, commissioners wanted to find out more information about the 1991 lawsuit Coleman v. City of Fort Pierce regarding the city's voting system.
City Attorney Rob Schwerer previously said the case resulted in the city agreeing to redraw the boundary based on the impact at-large voting had on the minority community. He said voting laws require the city to move its boundary based on population and then make adjustments if the redistricting has a substantial adverse effect on minority voting.
At their Nov. 7 meeting, commissioners requested more information from the St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections about the demographics of the two districts.
Although they gave preliminary approval to the plan at their Nov. 21 meeting, commissioners didn't give it final approval at their Dec. 5 meeting.
St. Lucie County Supervisor of Elections Gertrude Walker previously told city officials to make a redistricting decision by the end of the year because it must be done in the odd-numbered year following a census.

mobile and had a persistent, spraying cough. Investigators also found that laboratory tests for possible tuberculosis were ordered but not performed during one of the resident's several hospital stays (Kevin Ijaz, Arkansas Department of Health, personal communication, August 23, 2000). In addition, investigators determined that an air intake for the air-conditioning system was located outside the resident's nursing home room.
The committee located one report of a skin test conversion in an employee of a residential substance abuse facility in Michigan following diagnosis of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis in a resident of the facility (Hoch and Wilcox, 1991). The facility had no health screening program for patients and a high attrition rate.
Homeless Shelters The committee located only one published report on transmission of tuberculosis to workers in a homeless shelter. That report involved a 1987–1988 outbreak in a Syracuse, New York, shelter for men (Curtis et al., 2000). Investigators found that 70 percent of 257 clients and staff had positive tuberculin skin test results. Although skin test conversions were documented in 2 of 8 previously tuberculin skin test negative staff members, 52 other staff members who might have been exposed were not available for skin testing. Shelter workers are often previous shelter clients. They tend to be more transient and less available for follow-up than workers in many of the other settings reviewed in this chapter.
Hospice and Home Care Although the advent of effective treatment for people with HIV infection or AIDS has reduced their need for hospice care, hospice workers still care for many people at higher than average risk of tuberculosis. One outbreak of tuberculosis in a hospital-based hospice has been reported (Pierce et al., 1992). Eleven of 65 workers converted their skin tests after exposure to an AIDS patient with a delayed diagnosis of tuberculosis.
Ambulatory Care Setting The committee located one report of an outbreak in an ambulatory care setting. It occurred in 1988 among workers in a Florida clinic that reported skin test conversions for 17 of 30 (57 percent) workers with previously negative test results (Howell et al., 1989). Investigators identified four possible sources of transmission including 1 nurse with noncavitary pulmonary tuberculosis, 39 clinic patients with pulmonary tuberculosis (14 with at least one positive smear), sputum inductions for 13 culture-positive patients, and aerosolized pentamidine treatments for 2 culture-positive patients. The investigation identified ventilation problems in the facility that could have contributed to transmission.

- Summer Life in Whitley County
COLUMBIA CITY — Earlier this week, The Post & Mail received a press release from Mark Espich, president of the board of the Whitley County Humane Society, that they are facing a financial crisis.
In a plea for public support to offset operating expenses, Espich praised the Whitley County Community Foundation for a recent grant given to help stabilize the shelter's finances.
"The economy has been particularly hard on our area's non-profit organizations," explained September McConnell, Community Foundation Director.
"Last year's campaign letter for support to the Humane Shelter brought in 50 percent fewer dollars than the year before. People who care about the organization and the animals have been pinched financially and don't have the discretionary income to give. For an organization that must rely on charitable contributions, that kind of response can be devastating."
What they didn't know at the time was that a local business, Advanced Assembly, had been working behind the scenes collecting items for the shelter at the plant located in Coesse.
Thursday, Advanced Assembly presented the more than 700 items to Lindsay Pease, humane shelter director at the plant, to Pease's undisguised appreciation.
"This is huge," Pease said. "It's perfect timing. We were getting so low on things."
"Almost half of the monthly expenses of running the shelter are for payroll and the rest is overhead," explained Espich. "We've recently cut paid staff as much as possible and utilize a lot of dedicated volunteers and community corrections workers ... The real expense comes in the costs we can't control much, such as utilities and insurance," he added.
A new addition to the staff, Pease fulfills more than just her director duties.
"In addition to her many qualifications, (Pease) is also a vet tech," said Espich. "She is very knowledgeable in the field of animal health, in addition to showing great leadership qualities."
The Whitley County Humane Shelter takes in an average of 24 dogs and 21 cats on a monthly basis, caring for them and often nursing them back to health, according to Espich.
In 2010 the shelter was instrumental in placing 384 animals in new homes and returning 74 animals back to their owners.
The shelter held their annual auction Friday evening to raise funds, which in the past has brought in as much as two months worth of operating expenses.
Anyone unable to attend and who would like to contribute to the cause may claim the contribution as a tax deduction.
Checks may be mailed to: The Whitley County Humane Society, 951 South Line Street, Columbia City, IN 46725.

The senior running back is one of just a few players on the offensive side of the ball whom the coaches agree is the leader in the clubhouse to start at his position. Elsewhere, competition rules.
At quarterback, Maxwell Smith, Jalen Whitlow, Patrick Towles and Reese Phillips are sharing time. Along the offensive line, regular shuffling is the norm.
"You've just got to go with who's out there and make sure that they're giving maximum effort," Sanders said. "It's not going to be perfect, but as long as those guys are giving a hundred percent, we can fix those things that they're missing."
In a normal system, the onus would be on Sanders to serve as a steady, veteran presence in fall camp. In Neal Brown's Air Raid, running back becomes even more important.
Sanders and his fellow backs are called upon to work with the offensive line to call out protections, a responsibility that normally falls solely on the shoulders of the quarterback and center.
"We just have to be loud out there and make sure that with the different protections we remember how Coach (Brown) wants it done," Sanders said. "Even if we're making the wrong call, we have to make sure that we're communicating with the line to make sure that we're on the same page."
Sanders was a quick study in the new offense during the spring, but is now even more comfortable with his expanded responsibilities. Not only that, Sanders has transformed his physique in the winter, spring and summer before his final college season.
"I think he has it all," running backs coach Chad Scott said in March. "I think he's really the total package. I think he's done a great job taking care of his body to put himself in position to be as good as we need him to be."
The 5-foot-8, 187-pounder has also flashed capable hands over his first three years, catching 39 passes. His versatility, experience and leadership would seem to make him a logical fit to carry a heavy load in the first year of a new offense, but both Sanders and his coaches know success will take a lot more than one back.
"In this league or any league, it's going to take four or five running backs," Scott said. "Right now at this point, we've got four. Right now, they're healthy. We hope they stay that way, but it's a rough, physical league."
The four backs Scott refers to are Sanders, senior Jonathan George, sophomore Dyshawn Mobley and true freshman Jojo Kemp. Added to the mix on at least a part-time basis is freshman Ryan Timmons, who has moved between receiver and running back during fall camp. Though Sanders is the presumptive starter, competition continues.
There's no shortage of opportunity at this point, because the coaching staff continues to run grueling two-spot practices. The Wildcats are split into four teams and there is continual action on two fields.
"I've never been around this two-spot practice," Sanders said. "We all dread it every day. We come in and ask the coaches, 'I know we're not doing two-spot today.' But it just helps us get a lot of reps. We see the usefulness of it. It's helping our conditioning being able to play four, five, six plays back to back, getting fast to the line and getting back to the line and being able to play a hundred percent each play."
As demanding as the practices may be, they have served as an immersion of sorts for UK's less experienced runners.
"They're catching on, they're getting it down pat and they're studying in the film room," Sanders said. "And they're also asking questions, which is helping us. Once you see that they know they made a mistake, you know that they're gradually understanding what they're doing."
Sanders has been around long enough to know that UK, at some point or another, will need all the depth it can find. For that reason, competition is healthy.
"We're running hard, we're pushing each other and we're making each other better," Sanders said.

Bullish on Uncertainty provides rare insight into the secretive world of Wall Street high finance, which has shaped influential business, governmental, and cultural leaders and keeps supplying new business practices to other organizations in dynamic and complex environments. The book studies how two highly successful Wall Street investment banks managed the uncertainty of their high-velocity environment through different work practices. One bank chose the familiar route of decreasing bankers' uncertainty. The other bank used the novel and effective practice of increasing bankers' uncertainty to make them more alert to new situations and more likely to draw on the bank's entire range of resources. The book explains why the two banks differed in their ability to notice market changes and adapt to them. It thereby illuminates current events in the financial markets. Through vivid accounts of newcomers during their first two years, the book traces how the two banks' initially similar participants were transformed into fundamentally different kinds of persons by the different kinds of work practices in which they participated.Read more

Reviews & endorsements
"Investment bankers and investment banks have long shrouded what they do under a veil of mystery that has made serious study of the people and institutions difficult if not impossible. This is unfortunate given their deep importance both to our culture and our economy. Bullish on Uncertainty makes a significant contribution to our understanding of what drives the success of the best of these organizations."
--Jonathan A. Knee, Senior Managing Director, Evercore PartnersSee more reviews
"Alexandra Michel and Stanton Wortham have provided a stunning illustration of the intricate inter-play between culture and human development in what might at first appear to be the most unlikely of conditions: the changes in adult bankers who enter contrasting banking organizations. Leveraging the fact that one bank adopts an individual-oriented set of practices that map onto the assumptions of standard cognitive psychology, while the other adopts practices that emphasize interdependence in a community of practice, they provide a level of empirical specificity that makes for compelling reading and sets a new standard that should be a beacon for the development of both theory and practice in the years to come."
--Dr. Michael Cole, University of California, San Diego, Professor of Communication and Psychology
"This brilliant study provides some quite counter-intuitive insights into how we function in today's cutting edge organizations and of how these organizations change us. The range and depth of scholarship generate a new level of understanding of the psychological and organizational forces at work in today's economy."
--James V. Wertsch, Washington University in St. Louis, Professor of Anthropology
"...This book is a very good read and an important contribution to our understanding of the consequences in costs and opportunities of different organizational approaches and structures for handling uncertainty. This book is written in an accessible style that scholar–practitioners, as well as managers, would find useful. It might also be used in a graduate class in organizational design and theory."
--Gibson Scheid, PsycCRITIQUES
"...presenting a fascinating glimpse into the corporate life worlds of investment bankers... Bullish on Uncertainty takes as its starting point the distinctive corporate cultures of two banks... book is intended to convince the reader that these different banking selves, embodying different approaches to human cognition, are produced by distinct organizational cultures..."
--Andrew Orta, Associate Professor, University of Illinois, Urbana- Champaign, Ethos
"Reading Bullish on Uncertainty is like being served four entrées when you were expecting just one. Four different arguments are on the table, each of which is compelling in its own right. Gluttons for good social science will inhale this book, gourmets will pick out chapters to suit their specific interests, and the rest of us will try to appreciate every bite. Any reader must come at this book with a healthy intellectual appetite, because there is a lot to digest... Bullish on Uncertainty will nourish your appreciation for quality research, provocative findings, and meaningful scholarly reflection."
--Celia Virginia Harquail, Authentic Organizations, Administrative Science Quarterly
"...This book and the "Tale of Two Banks" is a "must read" for everyone living the current economic crisis. Scholars, employers, employees, and students alike will find this material accessible, thought provoking, and certainly informative. Society's current need to understand the economic crisis will be well served in reading and discussing this book..."
--Susan L. Cook, Metropolitan State College of Denver, Journal of Language and Social Psychology

Customer reviews
By Nicola Mansfield 14 May 2012
Reason for Reading: I was interested in checking out this "new 52" event and have always enjoyed the super-hero teams including The Justice League.
I enjoyed this immensely! I am coming at this as an occasional comic reader. I love DC's universe and grew up reading secondhand comics and today read the occasional graphic novel when the mood suits me though I haven't read any series for some years now. My review is from this "occasional reader" point of view.
I just loved coming into all these familiar characters anew, with a fresh start in the modern world joining up together for the first time. I found the story exciting and a thrill to read. The villain in this volume is Darkseid and his first appearance in the book is stunning. The artwork throughout is fantastic. The story not only gives us the origin story of how the Justice League came to be but also gives us the origin story of Cyborg which is very satisfying. As usual I also enjoy the humour and an ongoing theme was Green Lantern's taunting Batman that he has no super powers. To paraphrase: You're just a guy in a bat suit? What, are we going to talk to them in a deep voice? A lot of fun and I enjoyed the team's interactions with each other. No one is really thrilled to be joining together as a group, except Batman. He is the only one who sees the need for them to make a joint effort to show the citizens of Earth that they (super-heroes) are the good side. This is a great way to get back into the universe and find your favourite characters fresh without previous baggage.

Emergency services were called at 9.10am yesterday, with the man pronounced dead at the scene near the station.
Police today revealed the man has been identified and his family told of his death.

Rail lines reopened at about 11.30am yesterday, but the rail company said delays were expected until about 1pm.
It involved the 8.07am service from London Victoria to Ashford International, with the train stopped and passengers unable to leave while emergency services were at the scene.

As rumors about Ali Lohan's plastic surgery snowball, mother Dina and big sis Lindsay are undergoing a transformation of their own. Spotted on the town together last night, the pair hardly looked the part of mother and daughter. Sure, their matching DNA has always been apparent, but between the extension-laden bleached hair, satin dresses and horribly applied self-tanner (seriously, why does this keep happening?!), the two are becoming one and the same. We're fairly confident Dina would be pleased to hear it. [Photo: Getty Images]

During your vacation periods you may work full time (which is any amount over 20 per week in immigration law), for instance in summer if you are NOT registered, or 2-3 weeks at the end of the summer if you are registered during the summer, or during winter break.
- no need for an Employment Authorization Document
- no special application procedure required
- is not subtracted from your 12-month practical training after completion of study
- does not need to be related to your field of study
- you may begin working as soon as you are a student
- limited to on-campus employment opportunities
Off-campus Employment
After having been in F-1 status for at one full academic year, you are eligible to apply for off-campus employment in your field of studies. This could be full-time during the summer and the winter semester break, or part-time (limited to 20 hours of total employment per week, including any on-campus work) during the academic year. There are two types of off campus work authorization called "practical training": Curricular Practical Training and Optional Practical Training.
Other rare types of F-1 work authorization
Working for International Organizations:
Very occasionally, students will be offered an internship with certain international organizations, for which F-1 students can apply for a spscial employment authorization document through USCIS. In MOST cases, there is an easier way than this for an F-1 student to get work authorization.
- The employment is for an internship with a recognized international organization and is within the scope of the organization's sponsorship.
- The student is in valid F-1 status at the time fo application
To apply for EAD send the following to USCIS:
- a written certification from the organization stating that the proposed employment is within the scope of the organization's sponsorship
- an I-20 with ISSO advisor recommendation from within the last 30 days
- a completed Form I-765
- application fee
- does not have to be for-credit nor required for your degree program
- does not take away from your 12-month practical training after completion of studies
- must mail in your application to the USCIS with the fee
- it takes at least 2-3 months to get the approval
Severe Economic Hardship work authorization:
According to the Immigration regulations, an F-1 student may apply for off-campus employment work authorization based upon "severe economic hardship due to unforeseen circumstances beyond the student's control."[8 CFR 214.2(f)(9)(ii)(C)]. One challenge in getting this type of work authorization, is that students most clearly demonstrate that there has been a major change in their funding from the time they demonstrated the ability to pay for their Cornell education when first obtaining an I-20 from Cornell.
Speak to an advisor at the ISSO for more information on applying for work authorization based on severe economic hardship.

The Vampire Diaries
What's Wrong With Damon? Ian Somerhalder Shows Off His Bloody Face
Good guts, that's a lot of gore! Vampire Diaries director Chris Grismer tweeted a photo of Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore) covered in (what we hope is) fake blood.
"What it takes to direct @iansomerhalder. #tvd," Chris wrote. Um, that's all the clues you're giving us? We're seriously worried about that mug!
We're not sure which episode TVD is filming right now, but we do know Jeremy (Steven R. McQueen) isn't the only Connor (Todd Williams) 2.0 in Mystic Falls circa Season 4, Episode 13. Vaughn, another member of the Five, has it in for Damon Salvatore.
Are we seeing the aftermath of a little hunter-on-vamp action?

NEW YORK (AVAFIN) -- GM options observed interesting call activity today. The number of call contracts heavily outweighed
the number of put contracts during the last trading session. A low put/call ratio alert was raised on shares
of General Motors Company where a total of 4,860 put and 24,513 call contracts exchanged hands between traders.
View Options Trading ActivitiesUnusual volume provides reliable clues that the stock is expected to make a move. Investors
can use the put/call ratio statistics to measure trader sentiment. A high put/call ratio
suggests that the overall investment sentiment is bearish and that investors expect the
underlying stock to decrease in value. Conversely, a low put/call ratio implies that
investor sentiment is bullish based on the large amount of call options.
GM's break-even point is drastically lower than it was under the old GM. The company's earnings should grow rapidly as U.S. vehicle sales bounce back from the 2009 low.
Additionaly, The VEBA saves GM billions of dollars in cash every year, and the new UAW contract gives GM labor cost stability through at least September 2015.
General Motors Company (GM) opened today at $21.58 and is currently trading at $21.73, up $0.10 (+0.46%) during
last trading session. Within the last quarter, the shares have gained 0.60% of their value.
The daily low is $21.14 and the high is $21.75. The trading volume
of 6M is below the average volume of 8M shares. GM is trading above the 50
day moving average and lower than the 200 day moving average. The stock's 52 week low is $18.72 and 52 week high is $27.68.

Customer Reviews for Storage Pros - Wixom
5.0 Stars - Easy Storage
Mark Bradford said the following on Saturday November, 2014
Using Storage Pros - Wixom to move was the best part of moving! I shopped around thinking Pods would be my choice for sure and after I did my research, Storage Pros - Wixom proved to be the best. They were the least expensive, the nicest and cleanest storage unit (our friends used a competitor and their container was filthy), and the customer service exceeded our expectations. I had the pleasure of dealing with one of the owners most of the time and she was sincere, honest and friendly. She answered all of my questions and wasn't pushy. I strongly recommend Storage Pros - Wixom for your next move!

Voters will go to the polls from noon to 9 p.m. Oct. 22 at the Village Offices (58 Liberty St.) to determine the fate of the Keeseville Dissolution plan, which was accepted by the village board of trustees in July. A "yes" vote will accept the plan and lead to the dissolution of the incorporated municipality on Dec. 31, 2014.

What distance sensors are better and best?
July 25, 2009
I am working on a much faster & stronger version of Robot Wall Racers, using quite fast RC-cars
I want to use lasers as distance sensors, but I think they will be a little over budget, altough this is a paid for job :)
Yes, SRF05's clai, they can detect a broomstick on 3 meters.. but in reality they are not stable before say 1.5 meters.
1.5 meters when you are traveling at 25km/h is NOT a lot, when you even are set up with drifting tyres.
So I would like a little longer "view". And it can be pricey, say USD 50-70 for each sensor.
only problem;
I do not know of any better sensors than SRF05 at this level, do you?
re: distance sensor / range finder
I have had some success with a homebrew range finder that costs about $10(US) to produce.
It uses a cheap red laser pointer, photodarlington, filter, and spinning mirror. I usually include a dedicated PIC micro to turn the timing into serial range data for a master micro.
Range is good from 3" out to 50' depending on conditions. And accuaracy is traded for refresh rate depending on how fast the mirror spins - since it uses the triangulation method. Range resolution of <1cm updated @40KHz is what I often use.
The problem I can see using this for your application is that a car could crash into a chair leg because the laser range finder might be pointed to one side or the other. In this case the more coarse resolution of sonar sensors may be a benefit - I have had good results from MAXbotics EZ1.
Sensors in the bumpers of automobiles
Actually, all they do is light up some LEDS that you can see in the rearview mirror. They aren't attached to any type of control device.
Have you tried the higher end sharp sensors? Some go out several meters. Have you thought of using more than one sensor?
Maxbotix claims 6.45 meters
Maxbotix claims 6.45 meters on their sonar parts. I've never used one, and I don't have one to verify.
Maybe an automobile junkyard could have fun stuff. More and more late model cars are having distance sensors embedded in the bumpers. I guess the idea is so the car can brake for you when you're about to hit something. Then again, maybe pirating distance sensors out of a crashed car is proof that the sensors didn't work very well...
I'm not totally sure about
I'm not totally sure about the parking sensors that are built into new cars, but the upgrade kits you can buy are typically wide-angle ultrasonic sensors, for generic proximity detection. If you put a pair of those on a comparatively tiny RC car you'd end up detecting objects that were off to the sides and your bot would probably spend a lot of time avoiding objects it wasn't actually going to hit.
Unfotunately I can't offer any advice in the way of alternatives - all my experience is either with homebuilt IR/LASER/capacitive sensors or with high-cost industrial sensors =/

1/4 cup
warm water (100 to 110 degrees)
1 teaspoon
active dry yeast
1 teaspoon
white sugar
4 cups
bread flour
2 tablespoons
Italian-style seasoning
1 teaspoon
salt, divided
1 1/4 cups
flat beer
1 tablespoon
olive oil
2 tablespoons
olive oil
1/3 cup
chopped onion
2 tablespoons
chopped garlic
1 (28 ounce) can
roma tomatoes, with juice
2 (6 ounce) cans
tomato paste
1 tablespoon
chopped fresh basil
1 tablespoon
chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon
chopped fresh oregano
1/2 teaspoon
black pepper
I usesd just the sauce with homemade crust (Jay's Pizza Crust, also from this site), and it was THE BOMB!!!! I can not say enough how this absolutely made my pizza delicious rather than just good. The only thing I changed was I tasted the sauce as it was simmering, and I added about another teaspoon of dried parsley, another teaspoon of dried basil, and about a tablespoon just of Italian seasonings blend, otherwise the sauce was too tomato-y. It also made A LOT of sauce-next time I'll probably just use the 28oz can of tomato puree but all the extra seasonings.
Good basic crust. The only problem with this recipe is that you need more water. It was way too dry after following all the recipe so I added a little more water and a little more olive oil and it turned out great! I made this twice; once with bread flour, and the other time with half bread flour and half whole wheat flour, I liked it better with half wheat flour.
I did not make the sauce, I have my own methods for that that I feel are better than what this recipe calls for. But the crust was pretty darn good!

I already have my own recipe for pizza dough that has never failed me, but yesterday I had no pizza sauce on hand so I found this recipe. Am I ever glad I did - the sauce tastes incredible! It has just the right mix of tomato flavour and sweetness, and using whole tomatoes and chopped onions adds a lot of chunkiness to it. It makes a LOT of sauce too; I'm going to freeze the leftover sauce, and it will probably be enough to last me for the next few months (although I may want to make pizza more often now, so maybe it won't last quite that long!).
Thanks very much for an excellent recipe.
I gave this no stars b/c I only used the sauce recipe. It turned out just o.k., I think it needed something. I increased the seasonings, like others mentioned and added a teaspoon of sugar to help with the bitterness, but it still wasn't impressive. I will be trying the dough recipe next time though…thanks anyway.
Hmmm can you substitute the flat beer with something non alcoholic, or cn it be made without? I don't have any alcohol, and Im not fond of it.
This was excellent! we really enjoyed making this from scatch and simply topped it with mozz, tomatoes and fresh basil. Even though it takes a while - it's much better than frozen pizza. In fact, there's no comparison.
I just used the sauce from this recipe. It turned out great!!! I don't like chunks in my sauce so I put the tomatoes in the blender before I started. I think I will play with the spices a little next time but it was great!!! Thanks for a great pizza sauce that I can make myself and don't have to worry about what is in it.
Didn't make the dough (used "Ricardo's Pizza Crust" recipe) as we didn't have any flat beer - tbh we never have any left over beer in! The sauce was simple and easy to make with the ingredients I have in. Used dried oregano and less tomato puree (about 2 tablespoons. Blended it to give it a smooth texture which we prefer and used the leftovers (as half the recipe made too much for one pizza) for the base of a pasta sauce the next day. Yummy!

The president of the student government association at Alabama A&M University said at a protest rally Wednesday that the school has steadily deteriorated since he arrived as a freshman in 2008.
Now a senior, Andrew Foster said he organized a student rally on the campus quad to give a voice to students who have been disregarded by the Alabama A&M administration.
"The morale, the spirit, it was up there," Foster said of his freshman year. "And me, not knowing behind the scenes what was going on, it seemed everything was OK.
"But as the years progressed, it's just steadily going down. We're like at an all-time low. The morale, the spirit, it's not there."

However, I wouldn't like it to have to be a part of the Makefile as that would be a PAIN to update. So if when packing, it could look at something and figure out which version it was being packaged on and tack that on the end: 3.7: python-expat-2.3.5p2005110300-3.7 3.8: python-expat-2.3.5p2005110300-3.8 Current: python-expat-2.3.5p2005110300 Maybe only tack it on for a release and leave it off for -current? ($serial, $release) = $package =~ /p(\d+)-?(\d+\.\d)?$/; if ($release ne $current_os_release) { die "Package ($package) is not for this release of OpenBSD!"; } I am just saying how it would be nice for me as a user, so take that as having very little bearing on how it ends up. Human readable, date based serials would be nice as that is something easy to recognize and compare. If the serial was human readable, I don't think there would be a need for the p* numbers as with the serial, you would know which was newer. The vendor version would not have any impact on the package version which would be nice. I believe this would simplify the versioning and also make is easier to see what people actually have installed based on the output from pkg_info. l8rZ, -- andrew - ICQ# 253198 - JID: afresh1_(_at_)_jabber_(_dot_)_org Proud member: http://www.mad-techies.org BOFH excuse of the day: Telecommunications is upgrading.

Anthony Asadullah Samad: If California is serious at reducing its prison costs, ex-offenders will have to be re-trained and employers will have to be more tolerant of people trying to get their lives back on track. Is that even possible? One thing about American culture, as it relates to any offender, is that despite we profess to being a forgiving society, or want to redeem the best in those who have made mistakes, the truth of the matter is that it always lets the ex-offender know that they are just that, "ex-offenders."

"In Greek mythology, the titan Atlas
supported the pillars that held heaven and earth apart.
The pillars rested in the sea beyond the western horizon
in the "Sea of Atlas" - now known as the
Atlantic. Today we know that the Atlantic began to open
about 180 million years ago, and is still widening by
some 25mm per year." A surface area of 106 million
km including adjoining seas, the Atlantic Ocean covers
approximately 19% of the earth's surface. Its
currents play a vital role in regulating the earth's
temperature, absorbing and redistributing heat. Some
of the world's largest rivers run into the Atlantic,
including the Amazon, Mississippi, St. Lawrence, Congo,
Orange, Niger, Senegal, and Volta.
In addition to the ocean, the Atlantic World includes
continents and numerous islands. Contact among the inhabitants
of these land masses has been the subject of intense
debate. There is some historical evidence that several
ancient and medieval European, African and Asian civilizations
established contact with the Americas prior to Columbus's
voyage. The great cultural and biological exchange that
followed Columbus's arrival in the New World continued
to grow in scope and magnitude throughout the colonial
period and continues today. The exchange of plants,
animals, and pathogens has changed the natural environment
of the two hemispheres.
The transatlantic slave trade reached its highest volume
in the latter half of the 18th century when an average
of more than 70,000 persons were transported per year.
According to W. E. B. Du Bois, "that sinister
traffic, on which the British Empire and the American
Republic were largely built, cost black Africa no less
than 100,000,000 souls, the wreckage of its political
and social life, and left the continent in precisely
that state of helplessness which invites aggression
and exploitation." Two hundred years ago, Great
Britain (1807) and the United States (1808) declared
the abolition of the Atlantic Slave Trade although slavery
continued. Simultaneously, profound new world liberal
ideals, of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness
were spreading rapidly.
Issues of great historical, social, political, artistic,
cultural, environmental, health, and commercial import
will be examined through the Year of the ATLANTIC WORLD
as we look for better ways to understand the relationships
that connect people around this great body of water
and look to identify ways that we can promote mutually
beneficial development in peace and security.

Top This: Hot Oil
The Colony Grill's hot oil pizza inspired my own foray into preparing and using this condiment. [Photograph: Adam Kuban] I first had hot oil on pizza at the Colony Grill in Stamford, Connecticut, and I loved the stuff. Less a true "topping" than a condiment, it nevertheless has the power to transform a plain pizza into a just-spicy-enough affair. Its slow burn is satisfying on an, ahem, chilly day but not overpowering enough to keep you from tasting the rest of your slice. After the jump, a quick take on making a quick chile-infused oil....
