WARSAW, Poland, Oct. 5, 2004 Though it's among NATO's newest members, Poland already has emerged as one of the alliance's leading nations, Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz said here today.
In remarks at Warsaw University, Wolfowitz said Poland has "quickly moved from being a new member of NATO to being an important NATO leader, a tribute to the courage and commitment that we Americans have long admired about our Polish friends."
The Polish people have fought bravely for freedom their own and that of others, Wolfowitz said. He cited important contributions made by two Polish generals Tadeusz Kosciuszko and Casimir Pulaski -- in America's fight for independence.
From 1778 to 1780, Kosciuszko designed and oversaw the fortification of West Point, the defense George Washington termed as the key to the American Revolution.
Pulaski died from wounds suffered in the Battle of Savannah in 1779. "Two years before his death," Wolfowitz said, "Pulaski told Benjamin Franklin, 'We Poles have a hatred for all forms of tyranny, especially foreign tyranny. So no matter where in this world someone is fighting for freedom, we feel it is a personal matter to us as well.'"
Wolfowitz praised the performance of Polish forces in World War II, most notably in the Battle of Britain and at Monte Casino in Italy. He also noted the Polish people's successful resistance against Nazi occupation and Soviet repression.
"Today Poles are free, and now, just as in the early days of my country, brave Americans and Poles are once again working and fighting side by side to bring freedom to nations where liberty has long been held captive," Wolfowitz said.
Poland, the deputy defense secretary said, stands as a new leader of Europe. "Poland's leadership is marked by courage and belief in freedom, and strengthened by painful lessons of history," he said. "Poles understand perhaps better than anyone the consequences of making toothless warnings to brutal tyrants and terrorist regimes."
As other countries issued "hollow warnings" to Germany in the 1930s, Wolfowitz said, Adolf Hitler stormed one country after another only to be warned again. "In 1935, Britain and France acquiesced to Germany's abrogation of its disarmament obligations," he said. "In 1936, Hitler ordered the remilitarization of the Rhineland, betting correctly that the world's hollow warnings formed weak defenses. When he annexed Austria in 1938, the world again sat by. When he marched into Prague later that same year, the world sat still once again.
"And finally, when the world warned Hitler to stay out of Poland," Wolfowitz continued, "he assumed that this warning was just as empty as all the ones that had come before. Poland and the world paid for it with the worst war in history."
But the end of World War II didn't end Poland's ordeal, he said. Rather, it marked the beginning of four decades of Soviet occupation. "And yet, in spite of all of that tragedy," the deputy defense secretary said, "democracy flourishes in Poland after a journey of courage and determination whose difficulties only Poles can truly comprehend, but which Americans deeply admire."
When the Cold War ended, Wolfowitz said, many people hoped a long period of unbroken peace had begun. But the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States provided a "rude awakening" that evil had not disappeared.
Facing an enemy for whom freedom itself is the target has given NATO a new sense of purpose, Wolfowitz said. "For the first time in NATO's history, Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty was invoked, of all things, to defend the United States," he said.
"NATO (Airborne Warning and Control System) airplanes patrolled American skies. NATO support for the International Security Force in Afghanistan helped assure the stability and neutrality of that country's capital. And NATO's contribution to provincial reconstruction teams in Afghanistan is enabling the Afghan government to expand its authority, making the country more peaceful, stable and secure."
More than 10.6 million people, 40 percent of them women, have registered to vote in the Oct. 9 national election, when Afghans for the first time will choose a democratically elected president, Wolfowitz said.
"The NATO alliance remains as vital to our national security today as it was in the Cold War," he said. "It's true of Europe as well. This menace of terrorism, I believe, threatens all of us. No one can fight it alone. Only together can we defeat the challenge the particularly dangerous challenge posed by the intersection of weapons of mass terror, terrorist organizations and state support for terrorism."
Poland's membership in NATO provides the country "with the assurances it deserves that Poland's hard-won freedom will be protected," Wolfowitz said. He reminded his Polish audience of predictions that Poland's presence in NATO would be divisive for the alliance.
"Polish membership in NATO instead has seen Poland take the lead in promoting stability and progress in Europe," he said. It also has helped to lead the way for nine other new NATO members, he added.
"By remaining true to its founding vision of a Europe whole, free and undivided, NATO has shown that an alliance based on a belief in freedom has more staying power than any alliance in history," Wolfowitz said. "And for this reason, the United States and Poland have worked hard together to modernize and strengthen NATO."
The new NATO members that previously had been part of the Soviet bloc understand the difficult journey to democracy, he said. "With Poland," he added, "they can stand as powerful beacons for emerging democracies, and now, hopefully, in the Middle East and Central and South Asia."

We're not yet sure what to make of these Windows 8 ads that Microsoft Microsoft has aimed for the Asian market. They were just released via a Microsoft YouTube channel and shared by the good people at GeekWire. The streaming spots — which aren't meant to appear on TV — certainly seem weird to our Western eyes, but they might be somewhat normal for the East.
For example, the ad above shows a trio of women racing against the clock to apply makeup as fast as they can. We aren't sure why, we didn't do well in foreign languages in high school, but it's evidently a contest of some sort. The first two women don't beat the buzzer, but the third has a rather unique way of speed-applying that wins, and, we must assume, demonstrates "Beautiful and Fast", one of the Windows 8 taglines. Geddit?
There are two more ads, and they use the tags "Work and Play" and "The Power of Touch". We won't describe them here, but you should really just watch them yourself, because thank goodness online video is a global thing.
That said, I would pay real money to see the rejected concepts.

French Catholic Priest Plans To Marry Same-Sex Couples In New Job As Mayor
In a tiny village in Brittany, France, the mayor is also the local Catholic priest. As a mayor, Elie Geffray will soon be officiating over same-sex unions even though the Catholic Church opposes gay marriage and adoption. He notes that France is a secular democracy and that allows Muslims, Catholics, Protestants and atheists to live together. And says he believes the Catholic Church made a mistake by getting involved in the gay marriage debate.

I am not a Ramen expert, but this is the best I've had anywhere. Same goes for the pork buns. But the place is noisy as hell! (Did you hear me?) The servers yell their greetings for every customer entering or leaving the place - and the turnover is high. If you're sitting around a large table you can't hear your company from across. Perhaps it's a strategy to prevent people from lingering, but it makes it overall an unpleasant experience and hard to enjoy the food.
Posted by Ramen lover on 10/11/2011
The ramen and broth was good but serving size is paltry considering the price ($15). I had the Hakata classic and the noodles were on the thin side. I prefer them thicker. The samurai short ribs were excellent. Atmosphere has energy and young vibe to it. Went on a Monday before 530pm and had a 20 minute wait. Definitely would not wait 1.5-2 hrs to eat here. It's good but was expecting much more given the rave reviews.

Went for lunch the other day. The prices have skyrocketed. The basic bowl is $14; you receive a paltry amount of noodles, two of the thinest pieces of sliced pork this side of the afterlife, a few scallions and a bit of ginger. The broth needed to be much hotter. The trick here is getting the diner to buy up. Extra for more pork, extra for more scallions or an egg, etc. With tax and tip, a bowl of "plain" ramen was over $18. The place was packed with 20 somethings by 1pm. Service was good. Too bad I won't be back.

I'm a Japanese American who previously resided in Roppongi, Tokyo. I just tried Ippudo twice and have to say, I am not impressed. The pork belly buns and ramen don't compare at all to other Japanese restaurants. I think they should try polishing up the flavor. The food is somewhat lacking. Sadly disappointed with Ippudo!
Posted by anonymous on 01/15/2011
Every single ramen dish was pork. Who does that?
Posted by anonymous on 12/03/2010
Its pretty good but didn't live up to my expectations. I still prefer Momofuko and the buns here didn't compare. I didn't care for the mayo in the buns and rice either, wish I told them to hold it. It had a good vibe though.
Posted by Jason Zabs on 10/17/2010
The broth is awesome. Two slivers of pork belly in a not hot enough soup was a downer for $14.00. $8.00 for two small pork buns? Really!

T.I. & Tiny: The Family Hustle: Shekinah and Tiny Drink Tea
After multiple times of expressing that she wants to be white, Shekinah and Tiny organize a bunch of "white girl" activities such as sipping tea, attending a yoga class, and bike riding in the park. We couldn't help but laugh when Shekinah and Tiny make a scene at the tea house by talking loudly and asking questions to the young women around them. After all this time of wanting to know what it's like to be a white girl, we wonder if Shekinah will discover if the grass really is greener on the other side.

Editorial: A drive on for safety
Last week's arrival of a real winter should be a signal to all motorists that driving on the roads when the weather is cold and snowy takes attention and skill. It does not need the distractions of texting and cell phone use.
AAA offers the following tips to keep you safe on the road:
- Buckle up.
No matter the weather, be sure everyone's in seat belts, restraint seats or booster seats, even in vehicles with airbags.
- Focus.
Eliminate all distractions. Driving demands our full attention even in good weather.
- Know you car.
- Tires are the most important part of the car. Make sure they have the proper air pressure and good tread. Low tire pressure cuts fuel mileage, steering and braking traction.
New vehicles often feature traction and stability technology that help prevent skids. Check the owner's manual to know what that technology will do, and – just as important – what it won't do.
- See and be seen.
Clear all windows and outside mirrors, turn on headlights to low beam (even in daylight), search for hazards far down the road to spot traffic tie-ups, slippery hills or other situations you may want to begin stopping for early, or steering around.
- Make smooth moves.
- Slow way down, leave plenty of following distance behind the next vehicle - at least six to eight seconds on slippery roads, and leave an "out" to one side.
- Accelerate, brake and steer slowly and smoothly. Jerky motions increase the risk of skids.
- Apply steady braking. In vehicles without antilock brakes, do not pump the brakes. Keep steady pressure on unless the wheels lock, then ease up on the pedal just enough to regain traction. Rolling wheels have more traction than locked wheels.
In vehicles with antilock brake systems, keep pressing the pedal firmly and steadily. The antilock system should handle the rest- do not pump the brakes. Pumping antilock brakes will remove any benefits they provide.
- Recover from a skid without panicking.
If you start to skid, stay off the brakes and accelerator and don't shift gears. Simply look and steer in the direction you want the car to go. When the skid is over you'll be better able to move the car to a safe spot and calm down before resuming your trip.
Winter weather driving brochures, How to Go on Ice and Snow and Get a Grip are available in AAA offices and online at AAAPublicAffairs.com under "On The Road." Let's make this winter the safest yet on Sevier County roadways.

There is a Chinese WoW animation -- It's up to the 6th season already. The animation is hilarius and popular.
Unfortunately I can't find an English version.Sat Feb 02 2013 10:40AM Report
Hopefully this time the warcraft movie will come to be. It's been mentioned for like the last 8 years since WoW was launched lol.
I have a lifetime sub to LOTRO and it was well worth every penny of it. I still log in from time to time, but I don't play it regularly anymore. I saved up my monthly points and got rohan for free :)
Worst thing I ever spent money on in a game would have to be Call of Duty games. I've finally learned my lesson, but i will never buy another one. They're all rehashes of old games. They all use the same textures, guns, sounds, models, etc. Which haven't changed much since the original modern warfare. I'm no computer genius, but it feels like they haven't changed anything at all since about 2005...Sat Feb 02 2013 11:52AM Report
Why would somone say the most over rated char in sci fi fantasy history in regards to Drizzt?. makes ZERO sence . This character has been around for over 20 years. The character is an original. So many like the stories so this over rates a character? If not for the writings of Salvatore there would be no Drow race as is now told.
Granted there are a ton more stories out there in the fantasy world that are better stories and characters But how about some credit for the staying power of one of fantasy's most beloved character's.
I also do not like the fact that people need to try and re create him in a game world. Only thing Bill said smart there was the fact that no we do not need to see Drizzt dourrrdens running around all over. In fact i hope they could do somthing with name generator to not let anything along those lines be made.
just saying.
Sat Feb 02 2013 3:48PM Report
Call of duty and FEAR was my worst purchases. I play through them once and never play them again. Just like most movies I watch. See them once and just wait for the TV release if I care to see them again.
That Wow cartoon looks just terrible. I could barly recongize the characters in it. Is the main character supposed to be a tauren?? lolSat Feb 02 2013 7:42PM Report
Neverwinter.... mixed feelings at this time. I am disapointed in the vanity pet system and the buy to play beta founder pack debocle. I will play the game, but I will not pay to get into a beta.
Elder Scrolls Online..... YEAH BABY! Very excited for the game. Signed up for beta. I am not expecting a single player rpg experience from it, but it is looking to be the most anticipated MMO for me in this new year. Dunmer or Dark Elf here.
Not a fps player so Defiance and PS2 no comment.
Great episode. The 3 of you played off each other and made me laugh the whole time.Sat Feb 02 2013 10:00PM Report
Dissing subscriptions while talking about how much money you've dropped in the cash shop of a recently-released game?Sat Feb 02 2013 11:13PM Report
@Rider071 ...
I regret having disturbed the dead horse. But having done so, let me try to see the world from both sides ...
I have to admit I am having a lot of trouble wrapping my head around the idea of being "forced" to subscribe to something you aren't playing (every subscription game I've tried has a trial period before you have to commit any money). I guess I can imagine scenarios where people hop around between games or let inertia carry forward a subscription to a game that isn't actually being played. And if I think about concurrent players vs the number of subscriptions, I can probably be convinced that's a respectably large number of people either play very uncommonly or not at all despite being subscribed.
So I suppose if I'm going be rigidly opposed to cash shops because of my perception that they are a calculated manipulation of impulse shopping habits, I have to accept that other people are going to feel that subscriptions parasitize inertia.
Sun Feb 03 2013 3:32AM Report
LoTR remake? I have no doubt this movie will be epic but it will lack in any kind of story and at it will be as is full of mindless figthting unless they do it in say multiple movies for one part of the story then it might have some promise , since you can't tell WoW's lore in one 2hr movie so hopefully they take that advice and do it right. People that ever played WoW will end up watching it or buying it. I know i wll end up watching it even tho i hate the game now. For this movie to be any good it must be for adults, which means dark, full of gore, and great story.
On ESO i think they might follow GW payment plan maybe with subscription for say extra exp boost like Secret world does after its move to pay to play for free.
My most wasted game ever bought was probably for hitman the new one, For FPS i never bought it but gifted but i say black ops 2 , For MMO Age of conan was very upset over the way that game ended up. Reason why i say BLack ops 2 is since it's the same game since the first one came out on ps3 and xbox 360 , no graphic inovations all the same things, no difference just items.Sun Feb 03 2013 4:23AM Report
meh, EC, NW both have one thing in common, no real information, we can guess and hope all we want. The truth is in the actual game, to many "could be or could have", I can say "It's going to have this!" and untill we actually see it and get our hands on it, nothing is set in stone.
Call me sceptical, but after the rash releases of half done buggy games, I think it's time to play the wait game. That's the safest bet.Mon Feb 04 2013 8:53PM Report

CHIP REID, CBS NEWS ANCHOR: Tonight, still no answer to what killed Michael Jackson after police interview the doctor who was with him when he died, as new details emerge about his eccentric life.I'm Chip Reid. Also tonight, a coup in Central America. The military ousts the Honduran president and sends him into exile. Neighboring nations are threatening to attack.
Despite a surge in violence, the U.S. ambassador to Iraq tells us the Iraqi military is prepared to take charge when American troops pull out of Iraqi cities. And this week, sentencing day for ponzi thief Bernard Madoff and his victims will have their say.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: I just want him to hear how he has ruined and destroyed my life.
REID: Good evening, Russ is off tonight. We begin with new details on the investigation of the death of Michael Jackson. Police have interviewed the singer's live in doctor about Jackson's last moments and the family requested and received an independent autopsy. More now from Ben Tracy in Los Angeles. Ben?
BEN TRACY, CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Chip, still no official word from the Jackson family compound here near Los Angeles about funeral arrangements for Michael Jackson, but we have learned some new details about the final moments of his life.
An attorney for a doctor who was with Jackson at the time said the superstar was found in bed with a pulse before he died. Now as more and more details emerge about the life and death of Michael Jackson, they are becoming increasingly strange.
TRACY (voice-over): Michael Jackson's family remains mostly out of sight at their suburban Los Angeles home where a makeshift shrine to the mega star is growing.
UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE: We're here because we loved him and we would like to express that in some way and this is the only way we know how.
TRACY: Meanwhile, investigators say Dr. Conrad Murray, who was with the singer during his final moments provided useful information during three hours of questioning Saturday.
Murray was hired to tend to Jackson during his planned summer concerts in London. A lawyer for the doctor told the LA Times that his client did not inject Michael Jackson with the painkiller Demerol on the day he died. But many questions still remain. How much medication was Michael Jackson taking? And did a reliance on painkillers contribute to his death? One time spiritual advisor Deepak Chopra says in 2005, Jackson asked him for a prescription.
DEPAK CHOPRA, JACKSON SPIRITUAL ADVISOR: And he showed me a little bottle of OxyContin. I started to probe and then came to found out he was seeing several doctors who was giving him narcotics.
TRACY: Attorney Thomas Mesereau who represented Jackson during his 2005 molestation trial says even after being acquitted Michael Jackson was never quite the same.
THOMAS MESEREAU, FORMER JACKSON ATTORNEY: He was not constructed, in my opinion, emotionally for a trial like that.
TRACY: However, Mesereau says Jackson was a devoted father who worried about what would happen to his kids if he died prematurely. An ever increasing number of Jackson associates want to care for the children.
Jackson's long-time nanny Grace Rwaramba considers herself the children's mother. She is quoted in the Times of London saying Jackson abused prescription drugs and she had to pump his stomach several times.
She is also quoted saying that just hours after Jackson died, his mother Katherine called her and said, You remember Michael used to hide cash at the house. I am here. Where can it be?
J. RANDY TARABORRELLI, MICHAEL JACKSON BIOGRAPHER: If Grace's goal was to re-create herself from nanny to celebrity, then bravo, job well done. But if she had hoped to maintain a relationship with Michael Jackson's children, then that was a pretty stupid move.
TRACY: Now we are told that the Reverend Al Sharpton is actually on his way to Los Angeles right now to meet with the Jackson family about potential memorial plans. Those could include simultaneous worldwide celebrations of Michael Jackson's life. Chip?
REID: Thank you, Ben.
In Central America, the military in Honduras staged a coup today and fast moving events threatened to explode in the region. Troops took the president into custody and sent him into exile. Kimberly Dozier has the latest. Kimberly?
KIMBERLY DOZIER, CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT: Good evening, Chip. President Obama today called for a peaceful resolution to the political crisis in Honduras and a U.S. official this evening says that the White House still considers President Manuel Zelaya the duly elected leader of that country.
DOZIER (voice-over): Honduran troops faced off with angry but so far peaceful demonstrators after the army's dawn arrest and expulsion of President Manuel Zelaya.
Now exiled to nearby Costa Rica, President Zelaya says troops grabbed him out of bed, beat his bodyguards and arrested him in his under shirt. His supporters are calling it a coup to prevent him from holding a constitutional referendum today. He says it would have made the government answer more fairly to the people by installing a one man, one vote system. His critics say it was about allowing him to run for a second term.
The vote had been condemned by the Honduran Congress and the country's Supreme Court. They are backing the military, and one of Zelaya's main congressional critics has been tapped to replace him.
The organization of American states condemned the ouster at an emergency meeting in Washington today, but no one is calling for military intervention, including the Honduran representative, a Zelaya supporter.
CARLOS SOSA, HONDURAN REPRESENTATIVE, OAS: We are a nonviolent people. We believe strongly many nonviolent means of a political struggle.
DOZIER: But Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is threatening to invade after Honduran troops temporarily detained ambassadors from his country, Nicaragua, and Cuba.
DOZIER: Chavez doesn't usually follow through with such threats. And thus far, other than the verbal condemnation, we are not seeing a lot of international momentum towards some sort of intervention. Chip?
REID: Thank you, Kimberly.
Turning to Iraq, it's moving week for the U.S. military. On Tuesday, American forces they will pull back from cities leaving security there to Iraqi forces. Lara Logan reports from Baghdad that things are not quiet as departure day approaches.
LARA LOGAN, CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): These are the first moments of chaos following a massive bomb blast inside a Baghdad market last week, captured on amateur video. It is a scene of utter devastation. At least 78 people were killed as they shopped for the evening meal. This is just one incident in a week of attacks that left more than 250 people dead, the worst violence in more than a year.
Iraq's prime minister appealed for national unity even as he celebrated the withdrawal of U.S. combat troops from Iraqi cities and towns. Maliki has made no secret of his delight that from June 30th, just two days away, U.S. forces will mostly be confined to bases outside of urban areas. In the country side, they can still operate as normal.
But under the security agreement the U.S. made with Maliki's government, American troops will need Iraqi permission to enter the city.
Today in Baghdad, terrorists took advantage of the bad weather to target a U.S. convoy, one of their last opportunities to strike at American troops before they mostly disappear from the city streets. The attack left six Iraqis wounded. Civilian casualties are one reason many Iraqis are glad to see the U.S. go.
But the violence leading up to the June 30 deadline has raised doubts in the minds of many here, fearful of what will follow the U.S. withdrawal.
LOGAN: Exactly how the agreement will work is still somewhat unclear to the forces who have to abide by it, but as a senior U.S. officer told me, there is still a lot of gray area. Lara Logan, CBS News, Baghdad.
REID: Joining me now for more on the U.S.'s new role in Iraq, we turn to the U.S. ambassador in Baghdad, Christopher Hill. Welcome, Mr. Ambassador.
CHRISTOPHER HILL, U.S. AMBASSADOR IN BAGHDAD: Thank you very much.
REID: We just heard from Lara Logan that the violence in Iraq is the worst it has been in more than a year. Is moving the troops out of Iraqi cities an irreversible decision or could they be going back in?
HILL: Well, first of all, there has been violence in Iraq lately, but I think if you look at the overall trends, not just look at comparing one day to another, but overall trends, you see that violence in this year, '09, are considerably less. And at we are doing, really, with this move is to comply with our obligations of the security agreement that we reached with the Iraqis. We think, we are certainly ready to make this move and most importantly we believe the Iraqi forces are ready to take over this mission.
REID: But what would it take, sir, if the violence does continue to get worse? Is there any possibility that U.S. troops could be going back in?
HILL: You know, in addition to being the world's greatest fighting force, I would say American forces have also become the world's greatest trainer. They have been working very hard with the Iraqis to make sure the Iraqis can take up this mission, so we with have every confidence that they will be able to do so. So I don't think there is any need to speculate on what happens if things get rough. We know that things will be difficult at times, but I think we are really ready to move forward on this.
REID: Some analysts worry that with the U.S. troops moving out of the Iraqi cities, there will be a power vacuum and that that vacuum could be filled by forces loyal to Iran. Is that something that concerns you?
HILL: Well, again, if there were a power vacuum that would suggest the Iraqi forces are not ready for the mission. In our judgment, they are ready and they are looking forward to taking on the mission.
REID: U.S. ambassador to Iraq, Christopher Hill in Baghdad, thank you very much for your time.
HILL: Thank you.
REID: Still ahead on tonight's CBS Evening News, how many years does swindler Bernie Madoff deserve? Victims have their say.
REID: When he faces judgment tomorrow, swindler Bernard Madoff will hear how much of the rest of his life he will spend behind bars. He will also get an earful. Randal Pinkston got an idea of what those victims will say.
RANDAL PINKSTON, CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Sharon Lissaur is getting a chance to do something most of Bernard Madoff's 8,000 victims can't. She is one of the few selected to speak at the swindler's sentencing tomorrow.
SHARON LISSAUR, MADOFF VICTIM: I just want him to hear how he has ruined and destroyed my life.
PINKSTON: Lissaur says she was wiped out. The savings from her modeling career plus money her money left her were all invested with Madoff last November, just six weeks before his ponzi scheme collapsed.
LISSAUR: Everyone had so much trust in him and he betrayed everyone.
PINKSTON: Lissaur will be one of hundreds of victims expected to jam a federal courthouse when a judge imposes a sentence for what is described as the largest investment fraud case in history.
Last week, a federal judge ordered Madoff to forfeit over $170 billion in assets, which essentially means all of his property, and his wife Ruth was ordered to give up $80 million of her assets, still leaving her with $2.5 million dollars. Madoff's lawyers say a humane sentence would be 12 years in prison. Federal prosecutors are recommending 150.
ROSE LESS, MADOFF VICTIM: I would like to see him get a lifetime in prison and not in one of the fancy country club jails.
PINKSTON: Rose and Jack Less, aged 89 and 92, say they invested every penny of their savings, including profits from the sale of their business and home, with Madoff. Now all of it, $800,000 is gone.
LESS: We started to sell our furniture, some of our things that we valued, so that we could have some money immediately.
PINKSTON: What makes their Less's case more difficult is that the Securities Investor Protection Corporation, the agency charged with compensating victims who lost money, is using a formula for restitution that will give the Less's nothing because they have withdrawn money over the years. It is a formula that many say is unfair to the oldest of Madoff's victims.
BARRY LAX, ATTORNEY: They were victimizing obviously by Madoff and now seemingly they are victimized again by Pacific Trustee and essentially the SEC too.
PINKSTON: Some of Madoff's clients say they don't really care about his sentence. They just want their money back. All claims must be filed with SEPC by Thursday. Chip?
REID: Thank you very much, Randal. The U.S. soccer team played together for its first major championship in the confederation's cup final in South Africa. The U.S. took a surprising lead against powerful Brazil, on quick goals by Clint Dempsey and Landon Donovan. Thanks to some spectacular saves by Goalie Tim Howard, the U.S. led 2-0 at halftime but Brazil rallied, with three unanswered goals to win the cup 3-2.
The new Transformers alien robot sequel has racked up the second biggest five-day opening ever at the box office. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen took in more than $200 million. Only The Dark Knight did better.
Just ahead on tonight's CBS Evening News, Michael Jackson, mixing black and white.
REID: Michael Jackson was a study in contrasts, a black performer beloved by white Americans, but one who later seemed to erase his blackness. Call him a study in black and white. Priya David has more.
PRIYA DAVID, CBS NEWS CORREPONDENT: Michael Jackson started performing at a conflicted time.
This is ten-year-old Jackson auditioning in 1968, just four years after the nation's passed the Civil Rights Act and legally ended segregation.
DANYEL SMITH, VIBE MAGAZINE: People forget that there weren't always African-Americans on television and there were amount zillion black athletes and black doctors and lawyers and teachers.
DAVID: Vibe magazine's Danyel Smith called Michael Jackson the first black musician to truly cross over into the mainstream.
SMITH: He kicked down that door.
DAVID: Jackson moved from his R B roots to pop music and in 1983, he became the first black artist to appear on fledgling MTV with his blockbuster song Billie Jean.
MICHAEL ENDELMAN, SENIOR EDITOR, ROLLING STONE: Music fans don't necessarily think in these black and white terms, especially when there is music that is so compelling and so great, but they didn't care. They loved Michael Jackson. It didn't matter, sort of what race he was.
DAVID: But race continued to matter to Jackson, as he grew into his title, King of Pop.
In 1991, he came out with Black or White, the clearest expression of his philosophy on race, singing I am not going to spend my life being a color.
Bill Bottrell co-produced Black or White.
BILL BOTTRELL, RECORD PRODUCER: He was mostly trying to transcend race and in his own case, undefined race.
DAVID: But Jackson's message about race and his own racial identity came as much from his appearance as his music. This YouTube video shows the changes in his appearance from childhood to adulthood. Jackson attributed the lightening of his skin to a disease called vitiligo, but some felt Jackson was denying his black identity.
SMITH: Sometimes people would think that because of the changes in Michael's hair and his skin tone and his facial features that they might have some idea that he wasn't proud of who he was.
DAVID: Of being black?
SMITH: Of being black. He struggled with it, openly and in a way that was painful for many African-Americans to watch.
DAVID: Jackson played out those struggles on a global stage, but his legacy is that fans from every nation remember the magic of his music more than the color of the man. Priya David, CBS News, New York.
REID: You may not know the name, but you will certainly recognize the face and voice. TV pitch man Billy Mays died today. He was found unresponsive in his Tampa home. Mays made a career out of hawking products like Kaboom and OxiClean. Yesterday Mays was on a plane that made a rough landing in Tampa.
BILLY MAYS, DECEASED: You know, things from the ceiling started dropping, and it hit me on the head but I have a hard head, so --
REID: There is no clear indication the injury contributed to his death. Billy Mays was 50. And we will be back in a moment.
REID: Iranian riot police used tear gas and clubs to disperse an estimated 3,000 demonstrators in North Tehran today, the first major protest in five days. Iranian musicians and artists in this country are expressing their anger over what is happening the best way they know how. Here's Seth Doane.
CROWD: What do we want? Justice.
SETH DOANE, CBS NEWS CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): A show of solidarity by candlelight, on canvas and in concerts. Six thousand miles from the demonstrations and street protests in Tehran, activists and artists in New York City seem to find their voice this week, as many inside Iran were quieted. Iranian-American Johnny Azari attended this vigil and planned his own late night tribute.
JOHNNY AZARI, FOUNDER, FREEDOM GLORY PROJECT: The feeling of power really, it's just overwhelming.
DOANE: What he could do was bring together several bands to raise awareness.
AZARI: We wrote a song for the people of Iran.
DOANE: Debuting an anthem about the green movement, signature color of opposition leader Mir Hossein Mousavi. In the audience, his dad, Shoja Azari, an artist exiled from Iran in the early eighties. His work is part of a contemporary art exhibition which just opened at The Chelsea Art Museum and it is truly contemporary. Last updated at 2:00 a.m., the night before the show. It incorporates images from YouTube of the protests and violence in Iran.
SHOJA AZARI, ARTIST: Fortunately, the regime cannot really cut all communication because of the technology and the Internet.
DOANE: From digital artwork to this on a drum. Here, Shiva Ahmadi paints her commentary on the political power of oil. In Iran, she was forced to self censor.
SHIVA AHMADI, ARTIST: It was very frustrating. You are an artist. You put your heart there. You are doing what you believe in, but then you never get to show them.
DOANE: But here through September is the chance for 56 artists to show their work, 35 of them still live in Iran, where their art is considered subversive.
TILL FELLRATH, MANAGING EDITOR, CHELSEA ART MUSEUM: The main idea behind the show was to really defy stereotypical perceptions that people have of a country like Iran.
DOANE: Till Fellrath is co-curator of this exhibit, originally planned to mark the 30th anniversary of the revolution in Iran.
FELLRATH: None of us are able to go to Tehran right now and be on the street demonstrating but I feel through our work what we can do here to raise awareness and provide a platform for people to speak out.
DOANE: A platform and a voice that many inside Iran are still hoping to find. Seth Doane, CBS News, New York.
REID: That is the CBS Evening News. Later on CBS, 60 Minutes. Thanks for joining us for this Sunday evening.
For Russ Mitchell, I'm Chip Reid, CBS News in New York. Katie Couric will be right here tomorrow night. Good night.

If only voters had been behind closed doors at the old St. Louis Globe-Democrat with Schoemehl and former publisher G. Duncan Bauman. There, they might have learned that Schoemehl never meant to keep his word. In a soon-to-be-released book, Bauman tells how Schoemehl met with the editorial board of the Globe, where he was asked by newspapermen, "Where will you find the money to reopen and operate Homer Phillips?"
According to Bauman's account, Schoemehl asked to go "off the record," then said, "I do not intend to reopen Homer Phillips." The Globe endorsed Schoemehl, never reporting that the future mayor was telling its editors and voters two different things.
The tale, which Schoemehl insists is untrue, is vintage Bauman -- former confidante of billionaires, sometime custodian of the public trust and ultimate insider. Bauman, who by his own admission kept news from his own reporters, is bubbling with fascinating stories about the good, the bad and the ugly of the city he loves.
Bauman -- "Dunc" to his friends -- now averages two cigars a day instead of the 10 he once smoked while publisher of what was the city's largest newspaper. He's no longer welcome at Civic Progress meetings. At 87, he's become an observer -- and "off the record" apparently no longer applies.
Yes, retirement has been difficult, Bauman admits. He misses being on the inside, regrets not being able to act on the instant sense of indignation he sees as the most important job requirement for a journalist. But he's no less opinionated -- or conservative -- than he was when he ran the newspaper from 1967-84, served on countless public and private boards and pulled strings to help the right people rise to power in St. Louis.
Fifteen years after the forced sale of the Globe, Bauman remains unabashedly bitter about his beloved paper's going out with a whimper instead of a planned final edition on New Year's Eve that was to be a retrospective of 131 years of service to the community. In the end, Bauman had as little control of the Globe as of the rival Post-Dispatch, a paper he still excoriates.
Bauman regretted but agreed with Si Newhouse's decision to close the Globe. Because the paper was operated under a joint-operating agreement with the Pulitzer-owned Post, the Justice Department intervened in the planned closing of the Globe and forced a sale to Jeffrey Gluck, an undercapitalized entrepreneur from Columbia, Mo. Gluck ran the paper until he was ousted in federal bankruptcy court; the Globe struggled under new owners until finally expiring on Oct. 26, 1986.
"The Department of Justice told us they'd prosecute us on antitrust if we didn't sell it to Gluck," Bauman recalls during a recent interview at his Ladue home. "Well, I wasn't about to go to the penitentiary, and neither was Newhouse. Well, (Gluck) literally had no money. He had no money. And very little experience. And we never got paid a cent. He wrote 50,000 bad checks in one year."
A man born two days after the Titanic sank has plenty of time to accumulate stories. In his book Behind the Headlines, Bauman reveals morsels of St. Louis behind the scenes, how kings were made and overthrown, which public figures lied and which ones told the truth. The book is an "as-told-to" work, with former Globe reporter Mary Kimbrough piecing the text together from Bauman's taped recollections.
Bauman was no ordinary publisher, at least in terms of being remote from the events his paper covered. Bauman himself created news, though Globe readers rarely knew that. He delivered sensitive messages from governors to top city leaders. While personnel manager in the 1950s, he helped run elections as a member of the city's election board. He was privy to stories that would have made the front page, but he never told his reporters the secrets he heard in corporate boardrooms or Civic Progress gatherings. He says he even got advance word of unrest at the 1968 Democratic convention during an impromptu meeting with protesters.
"I had a rule," Bauman says. "I never told the office ever what I learned at any of those meetings. But I was a better publisher by far than if I didn't know what was going on around town. The Post-Dispatch once in a while allowed somebody to serve on a committee, and they'd run right to the office with what they heard. The result was they weren't welcome."
But the powers that be trusted Bauman. Some of them, like Schoemehl, may regret that trust when Bauman's book goes on sale.
Asked about Bauman's account of the "off-the-record" meeting with the Globe board, Schoemehl says it didn't happen that way. Not only didn't he say he had no intention of reopening the hospital, Schoemehl says, he never went off the record. "That just isn't true," Schoemehl says. "I certainly never would have said that, because it wasn't true. Even if what he were alleging were true, the last thing I would have done is go off the record and tell them that. The fact is, we had two active strategies to try to get that hospital reopened."

Madawaska School Budget Fails to Pass Referendum Validation
It's back to the drawing board for the Madawaska School Department..the school budget failed to pass Tuesday's referendum validation by more than 40 votes.
"It sends the message, look at your budget again so we'll look at the budget again," said Ginette Albert, superintendent of schools.
Residents had approved the the budget at the town meeting earlier this month…The proposed 6.5 million dollar budget increased 90,500 thousand dollars from last year but according to Albert 82 thousand dollars represents the purchase of a new school bus for the Grand Isle school department — so she says really the budget increased by 8 thousand dollars.
"Basically what would have happened if this would have been approved is that a family that had a 100 thousand dollar home would have had an increase of about 25 dollars in their taxes for 100 thousand dollars," said Albert.
Albert says she understands people don't want to see their taxes go up. She said what hurt the school department is a loss of more than 150 thousand dollars in state funding…and then a 43 thousand dollar commitment from the town. As she and the school committee prepare to make more cuts, teachers have their concerns.
Bonny Plourde-Tingley, president of the Madawaska Education Association asks, "Where does the superintendent of schools have to go to cut? What will she have to do? I'm confident that she will do the best she can to provide a top notch education."
Parents in the area also have concerns. Vanessa Gagnon has four kids that go to Madawaska Schools and she said "my concern for my children's education grows as the budget issues continue and as cuts are made my concern for our town and community grows as well."
Albert says she and the school board are in the midst of forming a committee to look at long term planning – but in the meantime, she's hopeful that they can get a budget passed before school starts in the fall.
"I'm highly optimistic, how's that?," she said.
According to state law the school board is allowed to operate after July 1st on the budget that the town approved earlier this month until they pass a new one.

Dear Rockstar by Emme Rollins
Sara is obsessed with rock star Tyler Vincent, and as she works to complete her senior year, she's determined to find a way to meet him—although her best friend, Aimee, keeps telling her to find a different escape from her desperately violent home life.
Complications arise when Dale, the mysterious new transfer student, sets his sights on Sara, and she falls for this rock-star-in-the-making in spite of her better judgment. When Sara wins a contest, she is faced with a choice—travel to Tyler Vincent's home town to meet him, or stay and support Dale in a Battle-of-the-Bands hosted by MTV.
Their triangulated relationship is pushed to its breaking point, but there is another, deeper secret that Dale's been keeping that just may break things wide open...
Turn up your collar, feather your hair, and splash on some Polo, because we're going back to the '80's when MTV played music videos, there was no such thing as American Idol, and becoming a star meant doing nothing short of crazy for that one, big break.

The Queensland Department of Education and Training will roll out a $7 million financial system to the state's schools in January next year as part of the ongoing OneSchool information systems project.The financial software, which replaces an ageing in-house developed system, will be provided by Agresso.The OneSchool project aims to provide a "comprehensive, flexible and sustainable information management system in Queensland state schools", according to the Department's website.Stages one and two introduced shared student records and curriculum planning functionality. The financial system replacement will occur as part of stage three of the project. The old financial system will be decommissioned on 15 December this year to make way for the Agresso-based system, which will be rolled out from January 4, 2011.Schools will use Agresso software for all accounting tasks, including accounts payable and receivable, profit and loss (P&L) and fixed asset management."The idea is that the rollout will be over the Christmas school holidays," Agresso's director of sales and marketing Bruce Wood told iTnews."There's loads of testing scheduled for the last quarter of this year [before] more or less a big bang rollout in January to every school."It was Agresso's largest deal in Australia, Wood said.The system would be hosted by the Department and rolled out as a web-based platform to schools.

Mounting a nordic or alpine ski biding 2-3cm off can turn a good ski into a dog. On alpine skis, use the manufacturers' guidlines.
I use a can of compressed air to clean off the small files in my bevel tool, as well as blow shavings out of freshly-drilled binding holes.
- Noah Sachs
I'm remounting new bindings on a pair of my skis...they have the same hole pattern as the original bindings. Will it be okay to simply install the new bindings in the old holes, or should I fill the old holes and remount a few centimeters back? I don't want the screws coming loose since I'm 175 lbs and ski freestyle/terrain park.
- Lorne C.
Unless the original screw holes are stripped or damaged, we'd recommend using them again. If one or two holes are damaged, and your ski has a core (such as wood) that's compatible with epoxy, you could always make up a small mixture of steel wool and epoxy, put it in the damaged screw holes, then install the bindings. Otherwise you could use helicoils or screw hole inserts for these damaged holes.
We'd also recommend that you only redrill all new holes a few centimeters back from the original holes as a last resort, since too many holes in the topskin can 'perforate' and sometimes structurally weaken a ski...and moving the binding location back could also change ski performance characteristics somewhat, as well.
On my Volant (metal topskin) skis, I've had trouble getting binding screws to hold well, and recently had a separation problem between the internal mounting plate (near the ski core) and metal topskin. I'm not sure if this was due to moisture getting into the screw hole, or internal pressure created by the screw somehow pressing down against the internal mounting plate. How can I avoid this?
- Lee Merkhofer
Always tap binding screw holes before mounting bindings on any skis with a metal topskin or internal layers. Use a #12AB tap (our item #UBT-21916) after drilling the holes with a 4.1 x 9.5mm drill bit (item #SPK-DB49). This will insure that binding screws thread in smoothly through the metal sheets and internal mounting plates, without creating unwanted downward pressure or delaminations. Also, use a good vinyl-base binding screw glue (item #HOL-20475) to guarantee that all screw seals are watertight...as well as help lubricate screws during installation so they thread in smoothly and snug as a bug. BINDING
I have some new Marker bindings on my Volkl skis. The bindings are attached to the skis by a pair of bolts that pass through the ski rails and the bindings. The bolts appear to require a star head-type allen wrench. Do you know what size and type wrench this is, and where to get one?
- Gary Weatherly
The wrench that fits these (and some other ski/binding combos) is usually a Torx wrench...size T20 (2.5mm)...and can be purchased in most hardware or auto parts stores.
When mounting my bindings, I accidentally drilled one binding screw hole a little too deep. The drill bit didn't go all the way through the p-tex base of the ski, but did raise a pinhead-size protrusion (dimple) in my base. What should I do to fix this?
-Robert Floro, Sydney, Australia
Well first off, Robert, rest easy...this is not an especially uncommon occurrence, even in ski shops. As long as the surface of the p-tex base is unbroken, you can simply push this dimple back in. Crude as it sounds, we just hold the rounded head of a ball peen hammer against the dimple, then gently tap the opposite end of this ball peen head with another hammer until the dimple is pushed back in.
If you had drilled all the way through, you could repair it by injecting a tiny bead of epoxy glue just inside the bottom of the hole, then top this off with some metal-grip repair material. Afterwards, you can restructure the base if appearances are important and you want everything to blend together...altho the surface area affected by these mishaps is usually so small that restructuring probably won't affect performance.
In the beginning there were simple under-binding lifters like Derbyflex. They increased your leverage on a ski and made turning easier. Then came shaped skis, and skiers found that lift plates made carving deep trenches on super-sidecuts easier than ever. But too much height has also brought about some problems. One is that stacking plates reduces the effectiveness of standard ski brakes, which just aren't long enough to dig in the snow to stop a runaway ski. Make sure you get longer brake arms if you're stacking these puppies high. Secondly, although lifts make it easier to turn, they also amplify mistakes...catch an outside edge accidentally and you increase your chances of rocketing into another skier or off-slope into the trees. Yes, it's true that World Cup racers can use lifts and plates to stack up to 55mm above the snow, but remember that these are athletes in top physical condition who can respond with lightning speed to correct mistakes that most of us mere mortals can't. Stack responsibly and ski within your limits for everyone's safety.
If you encounter a stubborn screw while removing ski or snowboard bindings, and suspect that glue or epoxy was used when the screw was installed, try using a little heat to help "unstick" it. One way is to heat the screw for a few moments using the tip of a soldering pencil or small base repair iron. Another way is to take your trusty electric drill with a dull old drill bit (that's small enough to fit inside the pozidrive flutes in the screw head) and use it with light pressure (no metal shavings should appear) to lightly "drill" the center of the screw head until it warms up (maybe 15 seconds?). At this point, the glue or epoxy should soften enough to let you remove the screw easily with a screwdriver.
-Robert Hills, Hudson, NY
Q. How many times can I plug old holes and drill new ones in order to mount new ski
-Dan Servetas, Loudonville, NY
A.Ah, the famous perforation (or swiss cheese) question! Well, as you no doubt can
appreciate, the more holes you drill in a ski, the more you perforate and therefore weaken
it. This means the ski may break more easily in these drilled-out areas...especially if you're
skiing hard, pounding through moguls or landing lotsa big air hucks.
We recommend that you plug old holes with plastic hole plugs. This will help keep out
water and lend some structural strength, but not as much as the ski material you originally
drilled out.
So the answer really is this...there's no way to say how many holes your ski can handle,
but the less holes, the better.
Makeshift binding covers (to protect bindings during transport on cartop racks) can be made from the sleeves of an old nylon warm-up jacket. Just cut off each sleeve, slide one over each ski binding, and secure the loose ends with a shoe lace or strong rubber band.
-John Yozallinas, Hatboro, PA
Telemark skis are looking more and more like alpine skis these days in terms of width and sidecut. When mounting freeheel pin and/or cable bindings, use a 3.5mm drill bit for most skis, or a 4.1mm bit (followed by tapping) if the ski has a hidden top metal sheet. Use glue in binding holes to prevent any potential damage to ski core materials. Add a 5/16" (8mm) or thicker lift plate under the binding and heel pad to give your boot more clearance above the snow and help prevent losing an edge ("boot-out") on steep slopes... but make sure all mounting screws are long enough to handle this extra height. In a telemark turn, the trailing ski sits against the slope at a greater angle, increasing the chance of losing an edge...hence the advantage of using binding lifts.
In a departure from using tradional wood-thread screws, K2 is putting snowboard-style (machine-thread) inserts in their telemark skis as of 2003. Bindings are mounted using a 3mm hex wrench (available at most hardware or auto parts stondings res) for the special (M5 x .8 x 16) countersunk screws. The mounting plate has a 4-hole pattern for BD and G3 Targa bindings...plus K2 is offering a shim that adapts to handle nordic 3-hole patterns for Voile, Riva and Rottefella bindings. This shim also has a slot in the rear that accommodates Dynafit ski crampons.
Line is doing the same on their alpine skis, but use screws with a pozidrive head instead.
Some binding screws really resist being unscrewed from skis...especially if they were installed using epoxy glue. To make this job easier, use your base repair iron to heat the head of the screw just a bit...this will often suffice to slightly melt the old epoxy and let you remove the screw.
-Suren Holbeck, Hayfork, CA
Telemark ski bindings frequently ice up under the ball of your foot. To help prevent this, apply clear or brown plastic packaging tape to the binding and/or any other surface underfoot. The tape is slick enough to prevent snow from adhering, and will last 20 or more days.
-Marcus Shell, Whistler, B.C., Canada
Rottefella offers an underbinding plate called the Tele-Spacer, which allows telemark skiers to adjust the position of their bindings in order to better locate the 'sweet spot' on the ski. A track lets you move the binding about 25mm back and forth, offering multiple binding locations without having to drill extra mounting holes.
As a general rule...moving bindings forward usually makes turn initiation easier, but can affect soft snow flotation. Moving bindings back usually makes turn initiation harder, but can allow a more effective carve.
When mounting my bindings, I accidentally drilled one binding screw hole a little too deep. The drill bit didn't go all the way through the p-tex base of the ski, but did raise a pinhead-size protrusion (dimple) in my base. What should I do to fix this?
-Robert Floro, Sydney, Australia
Well first off, Robert, rest easy...this is not an especially uncommon occurrence, even in ski shops. As long as the surface of the p-tex base is unbroken, you can simply push this dimple back in. Crude as it sounds, we just hold the rounded head of a ball peen hammer against the dimple, then gently tap the opposite end of this ball peen head with another hammer until the dimple is pushed back in.
If you had drilled all the way through, you could repair it by injecting a tiny bead of epoxy glue just inside the bottom of the hole, then top this off with some metal-grip repair material. Afterwards, you can restructure the base if appearances are important and you want everything to blend together...altho the surface area affected by these mishaps is usually so small that restructuring probably won't affect performance.
If you have snowboard binding screws that keep coming loose, put a touch of fingernail polish on their threads to create a better bond.
- Philip Engel, email submission
When snowboarding, there are just so many nuts and bolts that love to break loose on your bindings at critical moments. For a good sturdy quick fix, keep some lift ticket wire wickets in your pocket...they bend into any shape to fix and hold together those bindings.
To help prevent T-nuts from spinning during installation, cut a cross-hatch pattern on the bottom of the T-nut with the tang end of a file. This will help epoxy stick and hold it securely for stronger spin resistance. Or file off two sides of the round insert to create epoxy reservoirs on either side...this can also help. When repairing a blown-out edge section on your ski or snowboard, set the replacement or repaired edge in place using super glue before putting in edge screws. This will bond it securely in place in a fraction of the time it takes epoxy to set up, and let you put in screws without a fight. You'll also find that super glue will make short work of installing p-tex base patches as well.
-Chris Walsh, Boise, ID
If your snowboard isn't correctly pre-drilled for the bindings you want to use, clamp the binding with spring or c-clamps temporarily on the board exactly where you want to mount it. Then take a transfer punch that matches the binding hole diameter (available at a machine supply house) and mark where each hole should be drilled. Remove bindings, drill holes, and then install bindings...the holes should all be perfectly aligned.
-P C Chapman, Rochester, NY
To help keep snowboard binding screws from loosening, stick some double-sided tape to the bottom of the bindings before screwing them to your board...the extra adhesive can help keep the binding from shifting around and loosening screws prematurely.
-Harold Fantel, McCloud, CA
Most riders carry their snowboards by tucking their elbow inside their front binding. To eliminate pressure on your elbow from this, secure a piece of soft foam to where your arm meets the binding...this is especially helpful if you're lugging your board up the halfpipe time and again.
-Dan Drazen, Portland, OR
To help prevent binding straps from rubbing and causing wear on soft snowboard boots, I take old mountain-bike inner tubes, cut them into 5-6" long pieces, and split these down the middle. Then I glue and sew them on the outside of the boots all the way around the heels, and near the big and little toe. These rubber patches don't wear quickly and are waterproof, too.
-Greg Olson, Olympia Fields, IL
Loose and spinning t-nuts in snowboards are only slightly more annoying than trying to find those 6mm screws to fit them. For an American fix, visit your local hardware store for 1/4" t-nuts (20 thread) and a variety of the same thread size stainless steel cap screws. Use a 3/4" wood bore drill bit and carefully drill just far enough into the base so the t-nut face sits flush with the snowboard base when installed, or a little farther if you'll be covering the nut face with a p-tex plug or graphite/epoxy mix later. If your board has a metal plate inside, you may need to shorten the sharp prongs on the T-nut plate with snips or a file so they don't hit it, but keep 'em sharp enough to penetrate into the core as much as possible. Epoxy and tap the t-nut into place with a rubber mallet or similar so the prongs sink in. Once the epoxy has set up, install the bindings and crank down the screws...no spinning, no stripped threads, and parts are only as far away as your hardware store. And if you need to shorten a screw...first thread on a regular nut before cutting, then cut the screw to length. File off any resulting sharp edges, then work the nut off and on a few times to chase the threads clean.
-Jay Allan, Kodiak, AK
Have you ever had a bolt or nut fall off your snowboard binding on the slope? The perfect place to carry spares is in any unused holes on the binding straps. You can't fall on them there and hurt yourself and you know they will be there when you need them.
-Steven Thair, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada

This story has been reproduced from today's media. It does not necessarily represent the position of Liverpool Football Club.
Xherdan Shaqiri has given Liverpool an unexpected boost by saying he hasn't been approached by Juventus.
Recent reports suggested Juventus were leading the charge for his signature and Shaqiri has attracted interest from Liverpool and Monaco.
The 22-year-old playmaker turned in some star performances for Switzerland at the World Cup which has seen his stock rise.
Though Shaqiri has been tight-lipped about his future, he admits it is nice to be linked to Juve.
"At the moment I am on vacation and I do not know what will happen in the future, all this is taken care of by my brother [who is also the agent]," Shaqiri told Italian paper Tuttosport.
"I have a contract with Bayern Munich, which expires in 2016 and today that is the only certainty for me.
"Juventus? I have had no contact, just as I do not know of interest from Liverpool and Monaco.
"However, Juventus are a great club, who doesn't want to play for them?
"To date, I repeat, I am a Bayern Munich player, but for me Juventus would not be a step backwards."

68 condos sold last month
The average sale price was $413,000
The High sale price was $1,482,000
The Low sale price was $128,000
The Average day on Market was 92
Bayside led the charge in the month of May with 6 condo sales. The large part of the reason was the developer having their big closeout inventory sale. They also had the largest sale price at $1,482,000 for a 2 bedroom 2 bathrooms and 1886 sqft for unit 2905. Currently there are 5 condos for sale in Bayside San Diego, some are resales and some are the last developer sales. The lowest price condo for sale in Bayside is $495,000 for a 2 bedroom 2 bathrooms. There is only 1 Penthouses for sale in Bayside and the asking price is $1,579,000.
Surprising many coming in 2nd place for the month of May with 4 condo sales is Aqua Vista. The lead reason for this is because the price points are very low. It is hard to find 2 bedroom 2 bathroom condos downtown San Diego for sale under $300,000 and all four condo sales were under $260,000. Very good deals for someone at that price point.
Coming in 3rd place for the month of May was Alta with 3 condo sales for the month. A great building that just does not have much that comes on the market and when it does they tend to move fast. 2 of the 3 condos sold within 7 days of being on the market.
The rest of the condos sales of the month of May in Downtown San Diego were tied with 2 or 1 condo sales in many complexes downtown San Diego. Almost all the downtown San Diego condo developments had a sale in the month of May.
To learn more about the downtown condos for sale in San Diego please contact Jason Coriano at 619.665.5360 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com

What you need...
1) A couple pallets (Only one is necessary, but a couple won't hurt so you have extra)
2) Sanders or sand paper
3) Saws (We used a Sawzall, Mider saw, and table saw)
4) Standard drill with some type of a hole bit
5) Jig Saw
6) Hammer
7) Stain
Step 1: Cut the back/base of the rack out
Step 2: Cut the front and bottom of the rack
** If you want to put bigger bottles in, you may need to put extra spacers on the front. We tested with a bottle to make sure before hand.
** On one of the racks we did, we did two boards instead of one on the front so you can see the labels of the bottle.
Here is my try at a wine rack. It came out pretty good, I sanded it down to 220 and I'm going to stain and lacquer it this week, this should make all the drunks in my family happy. thanks for the Instructable.
Great idea, I used some barn wood I had lying around for the cover piece and back piece. A very fun project to work on.
My personal taste would be : don't stain.
But this is only a matter of taste, as I said.
One idea would be to put shoulder belt to this contraption so you could go around in parties or any other gatherings and have guests help themselves without having to bother the waiter who would merely walk around and go for refills …
Would be nice in great gatherings such as concerts etc… too !
