Hats Off to the Tri-Corner Hat
Today's post comes from Marisa Hawley, intern in the National Archives Strategy and Communications office.
As part of the "six weeks of style" celebration to recognize the Foundation for the National Archives' partnership with DC Fashion Week, we are showcasing fashion-related records from our holdings. This week's fashion theme is the Revolutionary War: Fashion during America's Fight for Freedom
Perhaps one of the most iconic—and easily recognized—pieces of clothing from the colonial era is the tri-corner hat, or more simply known as the tricorn. Although the style originated in Europe, it is now associated with the American Revolutionary War and our nation's fight for freedom.
In 17th-century America, hats with tall crowns and wide brims, like the steeple hats worn by the Puritans, started to go out of style. They were thought to spoil the appearance of and look precarious atop a wig, which was the newest fashion trend for men at the time.
The tri-corner, however, had three sides of the brim turned up, either pinned or buttoned in place to form a triangle around the wearer's head—"like a mince pie," to quote the vernacular of the time. This style then allowed the wearer to show off his latest wig fashion underneath, and thus his social status.
Also, the tricorn was smaller in size due to … [ Read all ]

Celebrating Benjamin Franklin's Birthday with Founders Online
Today's post comes from Keith Donohue, Communications Director for the National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) at the National Archives. This post was also published on the White House blog.
"The noblest question in the world is What Good may I do in it?" – Poor Richard's Almanack, 1737
Today we celebrate the 308th birthday of Benjamin Franklin, who answered that question time and again as a writer, printer, inventor, American diplomat, and godfather to a free and independent nation. He was called "The First American" and was in many ways the very idea of what an American could and should be during the Founding Era of our nation.
This Friday, January 17, marks his birthday in 1706, and the National Archives is celebrating by adding the annotated volumes from The Papers of Benjamin Franklin to Founders Online.
You can now read every issue of Poor Richard's Almanack, trace Franklin's views on picking the turkey as our national emblem, pore through his autobiography, read the correspondence between Franklin and the leading thinkers of the day, and find the trove of letters written between Benjamin and his beloved sister Jane Mecom that show the personal side of the First American.
Launched on June 13, 2013, Founders Online is the result … [ Read all ]

Happy July 2, John Adams!
There wasn't supposed to be a Fourth of July celebration in the vision of John Adams, one of our Founding Fathers and our second President.
But in that Philadelphia summer of 1776, having successfully argued for the Second Continental Congress to declare the United States independent of Great Britain, Adams was excited.
The day after the Congress approved the resolution declaring independence on July 2, Adams penned one of the many letters he wrote home to his wife, Abigail. He wrote, in part:
The Second Day of July 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated, by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the Day of Deliverance by solemn Acts of Devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with Pomp and Parade, with Shews, Games, Sports, Guns, Bells, Bonfires and Illuminations from one End of this Continent to the other from this Time forward forever more.
Adams got his pomp and parade and his bells and bonfires—and from one end of the continent to the other—but he was off by two days.
The Congress did indeed declare the United States independent on July 2, and Adams … [ Read all ]

The Papers of the Founding Fathers Are Now Online
Today's post comes from Keith Donohue, communications director for the National Historical Publications and Records Commission at the National Archives. This post originally appeared on the White House blog.
What was the original intent behind the Constitution and other documents that helped shape the nation? What did the Founders of our country have to say? Those questions persist in the political debates and discussions to this day, and fortunately, we have a tremendous archive left behind by those statesmen who built the government over 200 years ago.
For the past 50 years, teams of editors have been copying documents from historical collections scattered around the world that serve as a record of the Founding Era. They have transcribed hundreds of thousands of documents—letters, diaries, ledgers, and the first drafts of history—and have researched and provided annotation and context to deepen our understanding of these documents.
These papers have been assembled in 242 documentary editions covering the works of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, Thomas Jefferson, Alexander Hamilton, and James Madison, as well as hundreds of people who corresponded with them. Now for the first time ever, these documents—along with thousands of others that will appear in additional print volumes—will be available to the public.
The Founders Online is a new website at the National Archives that will allow people to search this archive … [ Read all ]

Im looking for a hike to do in December/early January in yosemite or somewhere in the central sierras.I'm inspired by this Backpacker magazine trip http://bp2.trimbleoutdoors.com/ViewTrip.aspx?tripId=368705However, I dont really know the area that well so I dont know what would be good.Some snow would be fine but for the most part I dont want to deal with anything that snow would make too technical or dangerous.Any suggestions?
Even if the weather holds and snow doesn't fall and stay, the chances of getting snow increase with each passing week, and in December you will have a real good chance of either showing up to a lot of snow already on the ground, or getting it while you're out there. I wouldn't even risk it unless you are comfortable navigating without obvious trail markers. That's not one of the trails flagged for winter use.Late spring is a better time - the creeks will have water in them, the snow will be melting instead of accumulating, and there's less likelihood of icy granite.A better winter destination would be Badger Pass - you can snowshoe or ski to Ostrander Ski Hut, or to Glacier Point, with or without a guide.
Edited by lori999 on 10/09/2009 00:37:31 MDT.
Great advice from Lori above. Glacier Point Road out of Badger Pass in the winter has a number of great trails for skis or snowshoes from day trips to multi-day. I snowshoed to Lake Ostrander last year, which was a solid 3-day (2-night) trip for my sister and I. Navigating in the area is relatively easy thanks to the flags in the trees along the trails.I would personally be concerned about going out in December or January and assuming I could hike out. A winter storm in Sierras could strand a hiker. For a multi-day trip, I feel much more comfortable with a couple of feet of snow on the ground and heading out with snowshoes or skis in the winter months.
Edited by Davidpcvsamoa on 10/10/2009 12:00:54 MDT.
there are a few areas that are lower than the snowline in and around Yosemite. Some spots around Mariposa along the North Folks of The Merced or even Hetch Hetchy which is around 5000 feet around Rancheria Falls. Other than that, your options are limited. I would try coastal areas like Point Reyes, Ventana Wilderness

Canada/US and Other Unfriendly Relations
Before and After 9/11
|Publication Date
|August 2012
|Ebook (PDF) Ebook (EPUB) Hardcover
|Palgrave Macmillan
Patricia Molloy breaks new ground with this inter-disciplinary examination of contentious events within and beyond Canada, their relationship to and impact on Canada/US relations, and Canadian political and cultural identity both before and after 9/11. Canada/US and Other Unfriendly Relations examines conceptual issues of war and warfare, sovereignty and violence, multiculturalism, citizenship and identity, human rights and international law. Molloy draws on key theorists in a range of disciplines including sociology, anthropology, international relations, philosophy, Canadian studies, cultural studies, and critical race theory, and gives a close analysis of how myths of Canadian benevolence are circulated in Canadian and American media, from mainstream news to popular television, film, and the Internet. What emerges is a story of a conflicted and stormy relationship between two neighboring countries who rival and envy each other while failing to understand the other.

|Titrimetric, coulometric and spectrophotometric determination of manganese following perchloric acid oxidation in the presence of pyrophosphate.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 18960204 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|Manganese is oxidized quantitatively to a violet, tervalent pyrophosphate in a boiling mixture of equal parts of perchloric acid and phosphoric add. This Mn(III) can be titrated potentiometrically or coulometrically with iron(II); it can also be measured spectrophotometrically. If the titrimetric method is carried out with titanium (III) or chromium(II), iron can also be titrated immediately after the manganese. The methods were applied to a new reference sample, ISU 600 Manganiferous Iron Ore, and to manganese ore, spiegeleisen, ferromanganese, and rail steel. Manganese(II) oxalate dihydrate has been reinvestigated as a primary standard and is highly recommended.

Number One?
sure like our lists, dont we? We love it when someone else
tells us what were supposed to like, and in what order were
supposed to like them. When whatever is No. 1 on some list
is also our personal No. 1, were vindicated, and if its
not, well, that just means were so much smarter than all
the stupid people out there. Right?
Right! Lists are lampooned every night by David Letterman
and were absolutely lacerated 10 years ago by Richard Thompson,
whose millennium-ending 1000 Years of Popular Music list
included everything from dead-language rounds to Britney Spears
Oops, I Did It Again. We need the lists. They represent
And lists have nowhere been more important than in the music
business. I remember listening feverishly to AM radio on Saturday
mornings to find out if the Beatles or the Dave Clark Five
would be No. 1. It was important! Music charts have always
been vital to bands marketing: Look at the advertising for
any oldies showusually its little more than a list of chart
statistics next to a highly Photoshopped picture of the artist.
The Billboard Magazine chart has always been the big
kahuna, the gold standard. Books containing nothing more than
decades of Billboard charts are always among the best
selling music books out there. Billboards tabulation
methods have changed over time, and the numbers of charts
have exploded, but these days Billboard weekly charts
are based largely on sales and radio play. And the industry
and fans alike watch Billboard chart movement like
a hawk, like its the only thing that matters.
This week Cee-Lo Green demonstrated that it actually may not
matter much at all. Last Thursday, he posted a new song, titled
Fuck You, exclusively on YouTube. Its a brilliant, bouncy,
perfect, hysterical bunch of soul-pop ear candy, with a video
that faithfully supplies lyrics, including the relentless
refrain Fuck you and fuck her, too. As I write this (Wednesday
morning), there have been 2.3 million hits on the official
YouTube version, and thats not counting the hundreds of reposts,
mash-ups, and reply vids on every other video-posting platform
on the Internet.
Theres a very good argument to be made that Fuck You is
the number one song in the world right now, and its not even
a blip on Billboards radar. Why not? Because there
hasnt been a single sale, and it sure as hell hasnt been
played on any Clear Channel stations.
Were in a world where sales of a paltry 60,000 units can
put an artist on top of a chart, while at the same time tracks
are flying around the Internet, kids are devouring music through
their earbuds 24/7, or watching songs on YouTube. Sales-and-radio-based
charts have nothing to do with how music is actually being
acquired and consumed.
Enter the smart folks at BigChampagne, who have for 10 years
monitored public online activity and have made lots of money
selling illegal download data to the major labels, who use
the data for marketing, not enforcement purposes. At the New
Music Seminar in NYC last month, BigChampagne unveiled The
Ultimate List, a singles music list that it claims is based
on billions of data points from all over both the Internet
and the physical world.
For all the hoopla, the BigChampagne chart doesnt look a
whole lot different than the Billboard chart, at least
not today. And Cee Los Fuck You is nowhere to be seen.
Are the billion data points, metrics, weighting systems, and
human massaging of data capable of tracking reality in this
day and age? The Ultimate Chart, like the Billboard
charts, is compiled weekly. A week these days is a lot longer
than a week was even a year ago. Who cares what the No. 1
hit was six days ago? Or six hours ago, for that matter? Whats
No. 1 right now, dammit?! Isnt that what we want to know?
Im guessing thats coming, as BigChampagne claims that the
Ultimate Chart is only the beginning, and that more stuff
is coming down the pike. Meanwhile, I wonder if BigChampagnes
noble effort is just so much tail chasing, or maybe just a
big smoke-and-mirrors play to come up with, well, fodder for
our insatiable need to be told what we like. The great thing,
and the scary thing, about the Internet and its decentralization
of our culture is that were left to find what we like for
ourselves from the cacophonous, primordial, and endless flow
of music shooting through the ether. If youre lucky, every
once in a while some song miraculously rises to the top and
presents itself and youre never quite the same.

Kern Terrier is known from the classic film of the 30s of the XX century Wizard of Oz, where he plays Toto – Dorothy 's dog. Weight Kern Terrier reaches 5 6 kg and its height is about 25-30 cm. There is a small but sturdily built and alert and intelligent expression. Coat resistant to external influences, and the upper part is longer and almost stiff. There is also a soft undercoat, which is quite thick. Shade of the coat can vary – red, gray, dark gray. Brave, intelligent and playful small dog, the Kern Terrier is a delightful pet and companion. This is a bold and curious dog that is sweet temper. Kern Terrier is an energetic and playful dog who loves to be part of the action and fun. Its penchant for barking it an effective watchdog. Kern Terrier is an energetic, enthusiastic, eager and intelligent dog, although it can be strongly and persistently, making it more suitable for people with experience in growing dogs. Kern Terrier gets along well with children, especially older and kind and loves to play with them. Also of course with other pets, but can sometimes behave less authoritative. To other male dogs of the same breed does apply less aggressive. Its attitude toward strangers depends on the very nature of the dog – someone may be reserved, while others are friendly. Loves to dig, so if your garden is well maintained, prepare for the worst.
The homeland of Kern Terrier is Scotland. The breed was bred to hunt foxes, weasels and etc. The requirements to breed and keep the appearance of Kern Terriers are medium and not so hard. You have to comb the hair twice a week and can also rub it with a damp cloth to remove dead hairs. Level of incidence of the coat is low, but may increase seasonal basis. We need to check you have enough clean teeth and nails.

Political produce threats continue in Vancouver
VANCOUVER, Wash. – Some residents say the threatening letters and the barrage of tomatoes at their homes have been happening for a week just because they have campaign signs supporting President Barack Obama's re-election on their property.
The neighbors in the Carter Park neighborhood who didn't get the tomatoes got a letter threatening they'd get them if they put up a pro-Obama sign.
Rebecca Alston found plenty of pretty fresh tomatoes in her front yard Wednesday morning.
"There were about five or six. They were scattered everywhere," she said.
Other residents like Gary Bickford got one of the letters placed on his porch written by a group called the "Welcome Wagon." That group took credit for throwing tomatoes on roofs of homes with Obama signs in the front yard.
"It's pretty cowardly to have a letter put out without a name," he said.
"I got hit because if you read the letter it says anybody with an Obama sign will be targeted," Alston said.
But Alston said they picked on the wrong person.
"I wasn't scared. I was just more irritated and mad. Like how dare they," she said. "It's my right to put whatever I want out here."
Post tomato tossing, she put up two more pro-Obama signs – one in each window – as a big "No thank you" to the Welcome Wagon – whoever they are.
Neighbors gave police the letter Wednesday.
Just two weeks ago, KATU reported on another neighborhood in Clark County seeing the same problem.

No Playoff Celebration Tonight: Warriors Drop Another Close One To The Nuggets
This should have been a celebration for the Golden State Warriors, but a last second turnaround jump shot from Kenneth Faried sunk the Warriors 100-99 at Oracle on Thursday night.
The Denver Nuggets came out to play against the Warriors, as they did not want to witness a playoff-clinching celebration. The Nuggets fought all the way back on the efforts of Timofey Mozgov and Faried, who both played an outstanding game. Mozgov had the monster statistical line of 23 points and 29 rebounds, and Kenneth "The Manimal" Faried added 18 points and 17 rebounds.
The biggest reason for the Warriors loss tonight was the sheer fact that the Nuggets just absolutely dominated the boards as they out-rebounded the Warriors 63-38. The Warriors just could not keep up with the Nuggets intensity and just seemed to be playing in slow motion compared to the Nuggets.
The first half seemed to be under control for the Warriors as they jumped out to a substantial 44-24 lead in the second quarter. Then everything changed. Nuggets Coach and Oakland product Brian Shaw challenged his team in a timeout and he Nuggets went on an 11-0 run towards the end of the first half.
Denver kept their hot streak in the second half, and midway through the fourth quarter took their first lead of the game. The Warriors just could not seem to gain any emotional advantage, and the Nuggets were fierce in attacking the basket and gaining the rebounding edge.
All-Star guard Steph Curry tried to put the team on his shoulders towards the end of the game and carry the Warriors to victory. Curry was able to score the last 6 points for the Warriors, including a driving finger-roll lay-up to put the Warriors ahead 99-98 with just 4.7 seconds remaining.
The Nuggets were able to get the ball into Faried at the top of the key; he made two moves over Draymond Green and hit the game winning turnaround jumper with just .5 seconds remaining. Curry threw up a desperate heave at the buzzer that went off line, and the Nuggets left Oracle with the victory.
Curry led the Warriors offensive effort with 24 points and seven rebounds, while Klay Thompson added 21 points in the losing effort.
The Warriors will have to get over this loss quickly as they travel to Los Angeles to battle the Lakers.
Notes: David Lee remains on the sidelines for another game with his hamstring injury and is questionable to play in any games until the postseason…. If the Warriors are able to defeat the Lakers, they will clinch back to back postseason births for the first time since the '90-'91, '91-'92 seasonby

Boils are infections of the skin that most commonly show up on the face, back, shoulders, buttocks and thighs. They can occur anywhere on the skin though, so boils on vagina are not uncommon.
A boil will start out small and red but as the infection progresses the boil will fill with pus and get bigger (the pus under the skin will become more visible as the outer layer of skin over the boil is stretched thus giving the boil a whitish appearance). Usually a boil will get big enough that the outer layer of skin will burst allowing all the pus to drain, this usually takes about 2 weeks to occur.
If the boil is grouped with more than one boil or if fever or red streaking occur with the boil it could be a sign that there is a more serious infection taking hold and you should see your doctor right away. When a boil forms it can cause itching particularly in the vaginal area of the body, which may be your first indication that there is something going on. Many women often think they have an STD or something more serious but it's important to remember that in most cases it's probably a fairly benign issue such as a boil or a rash.
When a boil is found on the vagina it is important to treat it a little more aggressively instead of just letting it run it's course since this infection can lead to other, more serious infections if the pus enters the blood stream. You need to allow the boil to rupture on it's own and continue to keep the area clean. You can get some relief by pressing a warm washcloth to the area several times a day, make sure that you thoroughly dry the area when you are through.
To help prevent further breakouts use antibacterial soap and keep your vaginal area clean to prevent the buildup of bacteria that can lead to an infection. Since many times boils are formed by a plugged sweat gland make sure you keep your skin clean by using a soft washcloth to wash that area and gently slough off any dead skin cells and keep the skin free from buildup that can block the sweat glands.
This problem is especially common for women who workout frequently since they will be more prone to sweating. It's important to wear clothes, underwear, that are made of breathable fabrics so that they can dry. You also want to shower and change as soon after every workout as you possibly can.
Few things are as unpleasant to think about, or have to deal with, as boils on vagina but this really isn't an uncommon condition and it certainly isn't something to be embarrassed about. Just remember that it's important to take good care of the infected area to prevent the infection that caused the boil to spread and possibly turn into a much more serious condition in other parts of your body.

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh throw down a number of spectacular dunks in these videos from Game 2 of the NBA Finals against the Dallas Mavericks. Posted by Ben Golliver.
Game 2 of the 2011 NBA Finals was an absolute dunk parade for the Miami Heat.
Here's a look at the top five Miami Heat dunks against the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night.
5. Dwyane Wade steal & flush
Midway through the second quarter, Dwyane Wade takes off in transition and rises high to throw down with his right hand as Mavericks guard J.J. Barea does his best to simply get out of the way.
4. LeBron James isolation hammer
Near the end of the third quarter, LeBron James sizes up the Mavericks' team defense from the top of the key. He quickly decides that he is unstoppable and simply goes hard to his right, throwing down a vicious right-handed hammer dunk.
3. Chris Bosh putback dunk
The Heat's third wheel gets in on the dunking action in the fourth quarter, taking advantage of some lazy fourth quarter boxing out by the Mavericks to hammer home a putback finish. He punctuates it with one of his usual creepy screams.
2. Dwyane Wade behind the back & reverse
Here's Wade in transition yet again, this time in the third quarter with a little bit more flair. Wade runs out and sizes up Mavericks forward Dirk Nowitzki in transition, beating him with a simple behind the back dribble. With his path clear, Wade cruises in for a two-hand reverse flush.

April 19th, 2014 (F1plus/Katie Grimmett).- When it comes to change, some Formula 1 fans can be rather stubborn. Last year, social media was abuzz with fears that F1 in its current form would soon suffer a rapid demise but those sceptical of the recent rule change will be relieved to know that 2014 is proving to be one of the most enthralling seasons of the decade.
But should we be surprised? Indeed, change is not a new occurrence and an adaption of the rules is a regular fixture throughout F1 history. Without significant development, surely F1 would, technologically speaking, remain stuck in the twentieth-century?
Certainly, the tougher approach towards safety is difficult to ignore. If anything, the improvements implemented by the late Sid Watkins prove that the FIA does listen to its audience and drivers. Just ask Esteban Gutierrez who walked away from a highly-dangerous crash unscathed and ready to race in China. Or Jackie Stewart, who fought for justice following the untimely death of his teammate, Francois Cevert in 1973.
The lack of fatalities in the last twenty years is testament to the hard work and innovative improvements made by those in charge and the people before them, who campaigned for such heroic progress.
Alright, I admit, not all rule changes are so popular and void of controversy, but that does not necessarily mean they were a bad idea in the first place. In 2005, the FIA adapted the regulations significantly which was met with anguish from some fans. However, it does pose the question: how can we stop one team from dominating unless the specification is changed? That year, the FIA hoped to answer this question and to bring to an end the dominance Ferrari and Michael Schumacher had imposed on the rest of the field.
Cue the introduction of new 2.4 V8 engines, which must complete at least two consecutive races, and a significant reduction in down force – in some cases, more than 20%. The loss of the V8 engines felt, to some, like the end of F1's famous and addictive soundtrack but the sport adapted, as it always does, and the strength of the V8's roar soon became deafening. With regard to the desire for increased engine life, some critics noted that the driver would suffer at the hands of their team if this rule was to be breeched.
However, in an elitist sport, an element of 'capping' is required in some form or another; after all, the best way to judge a driver or car is to compare them to a rival on equal terms. Fernando Alonso and Renault were certainly not complaining when championship glory fell their way in 2005-2006 – it seems attitudes to some rule changes can be relative.
In 2009, innovation and alterations were to return, helping to crown Jenson Button as the surprise victor for Brawn GP. The Kinetic Energy Recovery System (KERS) and the Drag Reduction System (DRS) were largely rejected upon their arrival but are rarely discussed in conversation anymore.

Now an accepted part of the sport, races like the Bahrain GP this year prove that overtaking manoeuvres are popular, enthralling and maybe, just maybe, something should be done to make them an ever-increasing fixture on the race calendar. I will let you decide that one for yourselves.
Rule changes bring great pressure on the hard-working staff behind the scenes as they attempt to push their title challenger to a new, innovate level. If they can adapt to the rule changes, amidst sweltering heat and in spite of their spouts of jet lag, we all can too.
Now we are in an era of V6 engines and an era where the F1 models of today sport questionable nose jobs. Despite all the scepticism, I get the feeling Lewis Hamilton, Nico Rosberg and the team behind their race winning car will not be complaining about the WO5 anytime soon.
2014's latest developments have some to worry that the quieter voice of F1 would be lost alongside cheers and boos from the honest race crowd. Their new sound may not translate well when invited into your homes every other weekend but the core of the racing specification remains – one driver and one car competing against all the odds to defy the seemingly impossible and become the best the world has to offer. Formula 1 is still about racing and the desire to win is still as intoxicating as ever.
As for double points? Let us reserve judgement for now. This new era of Formula 1 deserves a chance to prove itself worthy to those still sceptical of change.

Are you sure it is the remote turn on that drained your battery? They usually only pull like 100mA. Is it possible your alternator cannot support the extra current draw that your amp requires?
Hey guys, well you all been great upto now, maybe you can help me one more time,
im installing a pc in an MR2, This has a stock amp, it has no standard inputs into it, so i cannot mess with the wiring on the staock amp, and its in a really awkward place.
I have found out how to give it power, on the harness i bought you get 4x phonon cables, if i push a signal through those and connect the red cable on the harness that should go through a HU to the blue amp remote, the amp kick in and hey presto we have wicked sound. - but it killed my battery - drained it dead!
now..... i need to know where to cable from to enable me to get the same effect but the connection is established when either the engine is started or when i turn the key.
Do i wire from the ignition barrell? as the wire on the harness is a permmanent live ( or seems to be) although it says IGN 12+v on the cable.
My question --- i need to wire the remote amp cable on the harness to where ( that wont kill my battery ) not keen on using a switch as i will definately forget to switch it off.
Please help
Are you sure it is the remote turn on that drained your battery? They usually only pull like 100mA. Is it possible your alternator cannot support the extra current draw that your amp requires?
find the acc wire from behind your headunit, then wire that to the amp
Signature: [==||========] 20% complete
it's not the remote turn on draw that killed the battery, it's the fact that the amp stayed on because of it. you can find a ignition or accessory lead at the radio head conection or the fusebox or the ignition switch itself, but you must pay attention to the gauge of the wire feeding this amp, as I have seen some factory setups that actually power from this lead, meaning that the amp may draw 15 amps or more from this lead. if you see that there is a seperate heavier battery lead then you can power this with a 16-18 ga. wire or less with a 3 amp fuse, but if there is no other heavier seperate battery lead, then you may need to run like a 12-14 ga. with a 15 or 20a fuse...Originally Posted by justICE
MY NEWEST INSTALL:modded infiniti fx with big screen
first windows carpc install........my liquid cooled LVDS screen :D
you could wire the remote turn on to an unused 12V (yellow) on your psu, as such the amp will turn on whenever your computer is on, and off when the pc is off.
Unless u are using standby, in which case you need to find out if your mobo kills 12v in standby

Up next
Great Lakes (23-27) at Lansing (28-23)
When: 7 p.m. Wednesday
Radio: WQTX 92.1-FM
The Lansing Lugnuts failed to finish off a five-game sweep of the South Bend Silver Hawks on Monday as they were defeated 6-5 in the series finale.
South Bend starter Christian Beltre overpowered Lugnut batters early on as the Silver Hawks were able to build a six-run lead they never relinquished.
"He's a good pitcher," Lugnuts manager Clayton McCullough said. "He had good life to his fastball and he was pounding the strike zone."
Beltre (4-4) struck out eight in six innings, often clocking fastballs in the mid-90s.
But as Lansing saw Beltre one time through the lineup, the Lugnuts began to chip away at the lead.
Raul Barron spearheaded the comeback effort. The shortstop finished the game 2-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored.
Lansing scored one run in the bottom of the eighth to pull within one, but South Bend reliever Kyle Scribner struck out the side in the ninth to record his fifth save and stop the Lansing win streat seven.
Kevin Ahrens, who pinch-hit for Wes Stone in the Lugnuts' final at-bat, explained he wasn't trying to press at the plate against Scribner.
"I was just trying to find a ball to hit. I missed one pitch and he got me," Ahrens said.
Lansing starter Trystan Magnuson struggled and fell to 0-6 with the loss.
The 6-foot-8 right-hander, who played at the University of Louisville, gave up six earned runs, seven hits and three walks over three innings.
"He's working on some things, mainly commanding the baseball and learning to trust his stuff," McCullough said of Magnuson.
Though his club was down early, McCullough said he was proud to see it compete through the final out.
"You just have to chip away and keep grinding. I was glad to see the way they fought back," McCullough said.
After playing five games in four days, second baseman John Tolisano said a day off before a four-game series with the Great Lakes Loons will rejuvenate the team.
"It'll be nice to give the mind a rest. We're going to bounce back," Tolisano said.

Is anyone else getting annoying and noisy advertisements appearing since these new forums were introduced? if it is only me I have obviously picked up something nasty on my PC. If there are others perhaps it is to do with the forum set-up.
How can they be suppressed?

the calm after the gift rush
Life isn't perfect. Each year we face struggles, grumpy days, and off moments. BUT Christmas IS perfect...100%. Christmas is magic. It is a couple days of luxurious excess that make our hearts patter and our smiles big. It is the celebration of all things radiant! It is the celebration of family, and of life. Sometimes in life, we go simple, low key, and minimal, but not on the 25th of December. Christmas Day is our grand finale to the year, brought in with grand splendor! We live as if it were our last days. We never know what the future holds so we celebrate these golden days fully.
PLEASE NOTE: This is habitually the LONGEST blog post of the year. I take enough pictures to carry you through our entire holiday experience! This year, I am adding most of our photos to MooreMinutes Facebook page. Like Moore Minutes on Facebook and see the rest of the pictures later this week!
Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and the day after Christmas combined is the most anticipated experience of our year. Every year we pile our presents, food, and pillows into the car and head 15 minutes up the road, into the country, to my parent's house. We escape real life for 3 days into the magical holiday winterland.
The minute we enter the door, everything is dreamy!
We arrive at my parent's home sweet home on Christmas Eve. Their home is warm and cozy for a Colorado rustic Christmas.
My Dad's vintage restored toys make the perfect decor.
When we arrive, my Mom and I prepare for our giant holiday feast!
My mom and I are kitchen twins, both carrying a love for serving our family with beautiful meals and good menus. We work super hard for this meal and every bite is delicious!

After dinner, we traditionally gather around the living room to sing carols and watch the kids to presentations. We also recite Luke 2 and read Twas the Night Before Christmas. This year, Dakotah memorized Twas the Night Before Christmas and said it for us all!
Cameron did a sign language song and Titus played violin, while Kotah played the bells. It was heartwarming to to hear!
Chris played the guitar while we sang carols.
After that, we follow ANOTHER tradition to open Christmas Eve gifts. Christmastime is all about traditions! My mom always has fun surprises and also a stuffed animal on their beds. And Chris and I give jammies.
The boys ready to open their jammie bags
New slippers with chocolate suckers
Then, it is time to head downstairs and jump into bed.
They're so excited, they can hardly wait!
Getting a big bear hug from Bapa.
Our tradition is no presents under the tree until the kids go to bed on Christmas Eve. Then! When they wake up on Christmas morning, it's a big, beautiful surprise under the tree.
They tiptoe quickly around the tree, looking for presents with their names on them.
My parents wrap the most beautiful gifts!
Fun tags too!
The rest of the morning buzzes with excited energy.

Get into the festive spirit with a tour of London's Christmas lights
Published: Tuesday 9th of November 2010
With the Regent Street Christmas lights being switched on this week (November 9th), it's that time of year when the capital comes alive with all things festive.
Every region of London will have its own displays and what better way to get into the spirit of the season than by spending a day enjoying all of the many lights and decorations that are on show?
If you're looking for free things to do in London around the holidays, this is a great option - and if you have children they're bound to love seeing the lights draped over trees, lampposts, shop fronts and houses.
As one of London's main shopping districts, Regent Street is a good place to start. You can always count on a spectacular display here, with lights forming a blanket across the street to get you in the mood for some Christmas shopping.
In addition to the lights out on the road, you'll also be able to enjoy all of the festive window displays whether you're planning to buy some more stocking fillers or just want to enjoy the decorations.
Oxford Street is another of London's largest shopping areas and its festive lights are already sparkling.
Renowned for the colourful themed displays that dazzle shoppers each year, you should certainly make sure that you stroll down the famous street if you want to see some of the best light installations in the capital.
Although there are plenty of traditional Christmas decorations around, there are also some more unusual installations for you to enjoy.
For something a little bit different, head over to Covent Garden where designer Paul Cocksedge has come up with an interactive display.
The lights on a giant Christmas tree in the square will be activated each time a couple kisses under the mistletoe, making it the perfect location to round off a romantic day out.
Meanwhile, the inside of Covent Garden market will be decked out with thousands of LED lights that will sparkle at all hours of the day.
Various free events are also planned in the area, including a number of live evening performances throughout the festive period, as well as a food market where you can sample some delicious yuletide treats.
And with the switch-on ceremony taking place on November 11th, there will be plenty of time to enjoy all the decorations and activities around Covent Garden in the run up to Christmas.
If you want to see one of the many London attractions decorated for the season then you should visit Trafalgar Square during December.
Its famous Christmas tree, which is always gifted to the city by the people of Norway, will come to life on December 2nd when the lights are switched on.
As always, it will be decorated in the traditional Norwegian style with hundreds of single white lights sparkling on its branches.
Carol singers regularly gather at the base of the giant tree - which stands at between 20 and 25m tall - to spread good tidings and get everyone into a joyous mood.
There are also plenty of other areas in London where you can seek out some stunning Christmas displays - from Carnaby and Marylebone to Putney and Greenwich, wherever you go, you'll find that there are beautiful festive decorations to help get you into the spirit of the yuletide season.

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers voted not to fund the federal budget: Nine million women and children will lose WIC benefits that help provide basic nutrition to low-income mothers and their babies.
One would expect McMorris Rodgers, the mother of two with another on the way, to be more empathetic.
Of course, she, like all members of Congress, will continue to draw a full salary and be easily able to meet the needs of her family. But as a representative of the 5th Congressional District and the United States in general, is it not also her responsibility and moral obligation to advocate for the needs of her constituents?
Veterans' applications for earned benefits are not being processed. Funding for Meals on Wheels is being slashed. Federal employees who protect our nation's Capitol, who staff national parks, who provide disaster relief, are all going unpaid.
How can they pay their rent and feed their families? Few have enough savings to meet basic needs for long without their salaries.
If Republicans want to repeal the Affordable Care Act, they should do so legally by passing legislation to that effect. If they do not have the support to do so, the law stands. Otherwise any minority faction could override any law legally passed by Congress, our elected representatives, by simply threatening not to fund the government.
This attempt to circumvent legal procedures is surely not what our Founders intended.

Roy Oswalt bumped to bullpen
ARLINGTON – Only minutes after acquiring RHP Ryan Dempster from the Chicago Cubs, the Rangers informed RHP Roy Oswalt that he was being moved out of the rotation and into the bullpen.
The club's plan, according to manager Ron Washington, is that Dempster will start the finale of the four-game series against the Los Angeles Angels on Thursday. That means LHP Matt Harrison and the rest of the rotation will be be bumped back a day. It's unclear, however, whether the Rangers will bump RHP Scott Feldman back a day or push him to the end of the rotation.
If the Rangers simply keep everyone in order following Dempster's debut, Harrison would pitch Friday at Kansas City followed by Feldman and Tuesday starter LHP Derek Holland. RHP Yu Darvish would open the Rangers' series at Boston on August 6.
In six starts, Oswalt has compiled a 6.49 ERA and has allowed opponents a batting average of .358. Los Angeles racked up 11 hits in 5.1 innings against him on Monday on the way to a 15-8 win. Oswalt on Monday said he could not find his arm slot, a problem that he also mentioned in his first three starts for the Rangers.
Oswalt has made 13 relief appearances in his career, but only five since his rookie season of 2001.

I'm hitting the TM SLDR S Driver with 12 degrees of loft (stiff shaft). I'm getting about 255 - 260 in distance but not as much roll as I would like. I tried the 10 degree model but it wasn't a good fit. I play the Pro-V 1X. If I could bring the launch angle down just a little I think I'll have the perfect combination. I like the feel of the Pro-V1 X, the Pro -V1 and the NXT Tour. With regards to ball flight of those 3 models, which flies the lowest off the driver?
Any other ball you would recommend that has a similar reel but a lower driver ball flight?
How's the spin rate? To me, the launch angle doesn't tell the complete story unless I know the spin rate as well.
Good luck!
Hi Greg,
From my experience, new V1 ball tends to make lower ball flight. The launch angle will be affected by loft, attack angle, and ball impact location. You may check those elements of your swing.
Good luck Greg!
Golf WRX did a comparison test on it.

West Seattle restaurants: See inside Cassis, opening WednesdayFebruary 18, 2014 at 9:39 pm | In West Seattle news, West Seattle restaurants | 14 Comments
Story by Tracy Record
Photos by Patrick Sand
West Seattle Blog co-publishers
Jef Fike is so focused on fresh food, his about-to-open Alki restaurant doesn't even have a freezer.
Tomorrow (Wednesday, February 19th) is the official opening night for Cassis, a name already known to fans of fine food who mourned the end of its Capitol Hill edition a decade ago and cheered when news of an Alki rebirth broke last year.
As a pink sunset glow topped storm clouds off Alki a few hours ago, we stopped in by invitation for a few photos of the just-completed interior, and an opening-night-eve conversation with Fike (above).
For starters, Cassis will be open for dinner six nights a week, 4-10 pm – every night but Tuesdays. If there seems to be a market to stay open later, he might consider 11 pm. Happy hour will be 4-6 nightly, with its own menu. In April, Fike expects to add weekend brunch; then around June, he expects to be open all 7 days/nights, adding weekday lunch and Tuesday dinner.
Reservations will be accepted by phone and online, and the menu will change monthly, "to keep it interesting," Fike says. Entrées on the first menu range from Calvados Braised Pork ($18) to Steak Frites ($24), with prices varying by night on the pasta du jour and a daily fish selection. First courses include deep-fried pancetta-stuffed olives ($8), Salade Frisée ($10), seven other options, and soup du jour. Six dessert possibilities ($6-$8) are on that menu, with flavors from apple to lemon to chocolate to black currant – and of course, creme brulee. West Seattleite Andy Dekle is Fike's chef, as announced in December. As mentioned above, the emphasis is on fresh, with deliveries every day, nothing ever frozen, everything made in house, including those desserts (courtesy of an "amazing pastry chef").
House wines are on tap, from Proletariat – two reds, two whites, and "a rosé in summer," per Fike – with more than 20 others on the wine list, including sparkling wines; the cocktail menu offers location-apropos drink names such as the Alki 75 and Lost on the Beach.
Noticing the espresso machine behind the bar, we ask which roaster. Fonté, replies Fike, same as before.
Now a little more about the decor – it is by a designer that Fike says is a 4th-generation West Seattleite, Tom J. Harris of Solutions in Color.
Photos, paintings, even signs evoke a continental atmosphere, described by Fike as'60s to early'70s, with dark wood and creamy colors.
The space seats close to 50, open to all ages except, of course, for the bar area. The atmosphere even extends to the restrooms – a small, beautiful rectangular porcelain sink hugs the wall in the ladies' room:
The space retains its high ceilings, though the dark paint keeps them from distracting you from the sights closer to eye level.
One question might be top of mind for past patrons of "Cassis 1.0," as Fike refers to it at one point: What's the biggest difference between that, and the new version?
Looking toward the all-windows front of the newly remodeled space, the restaurateur smiles, "The location, the view."
Cassis (cass-SEESE) is in the former Alki Arts space at 2820 Alki SW, next to Cactus.

Better have PBR or else it's doomed.
Comment by Creep Mike — 10:51 pm February 18, 2014 #
Sorry, Creep, the beer lineup on the menu cards we were given is: Odins Gift, Affligem Blonde, Boon Framboise, Kronenbourg Blanc. No "Le Ribon Pabst de Bleu" that I can see. Sorry! :) – TR
So excited to welcome Jef and Cassis to west seattle! I was a huge fan when it was on cap hill and super sad to see it close.

Dear TR…You made me giggle :D
Mmmmm… The menu looks to healthy for me..lol

Steak au poivre with a side of Foie de Veau en Persillade avec Pommes de Terre…and a glass of Tenuta Luce della Vite, Tuscany "Lucente" 2008. And a place in the back to sleep it off…

I always thought the final s was not pronounced…..I guess that depends whether the restaurant is named for blackcurrant liquer or a town on the French Riviera?
Comment by Kathy — 4:13 pm February 19, 2014 #
I don't know – all I know is, that's how Jef Fike pronounces it. The liqueur is mentioned in several of the drinks on the cocktail menu. – TR
Has anybody eaten at Cassis yet? Care to share the experience?

Andrew Garfield just gave us another reason to love him.
While appearing on Thursday's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon to promote The Amazing Spider-Man 2, the actor's latest hobby came up in conversation.
"You're learning how to play guitar. Is that true?" asked Fallon.
"I play very simple Cat Stevens songs, and very simple Neil Young songs," said the actor, clearly a bit shy talking about it.
Not surprising, Fallon pulled a guitar out from behind his desk and begged the 30-year-old star to show off his latest talent.
"This is the first time I've ever sung in public," he noted.
Garfield then proceeded to strum the six-string and belt out the theme song from the original Spider-Man animated TV series while Fallon joined him on tambourine.
"That's the way to do it!" Fallon exclaimed after the song was over, as the studio audience cheered.
Of course, Garfield's other half, Emma Stone, also proved her ability to carry a tune (or, should we say, lip-sync a tune) during her visit to The Tonight Show earlier in the week when she memorably mouthed the words to Blues Traveler's "Hook" and DJ Khaled's "All I Do Is Win."
"She's just magic," Garfield gushed to Fallon about his gal's impressive performance.
(E! and The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon are both part of the NBCUniversal family.)

Katy Perry Tries Slime-Green Hair, Nails It
The singer took to Instagram to share her new "slime-green" hair color, but with a twist. Instead of all-over-color — because all-green hair might be a little much, even for Perry — Katy opted for ombré, leaving the top of her hair jet black. While the faded look may not be as seamless as it would be if Katy dyed her crown back to her natural blonde, it still works in a cool, grungy way. But mostly, it shows that even girls with black hair can rock a pastel ombré with the best of 'em.
Katy's neon green isn't the first Crayola-colored hair we've seen this week. Kristin Stewart showed off her newly dyed orange shade on Saturday. And, can we just say, both dye jobs are giving us flashbacks to Kate Winslet as Clementine in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. And, that is just the kind of beauty inspiration we need on this gray spring day.

What's On This Week
A daily updated summary of the week in TV.
Monday, November 30, 2015
A daily updated summary of the week in TV.
From All Movie Guide: A cinematographer turned director, Arthur Crabtree enjoyed a decade and a half as a successful filmmaker, most of his best work in the fields of melodrama, thrillers, and chillers. Born in 1900, he entered the movie business at British International Pictures in the early 1930s, where his work behind the camera was restricted to ultra-low-budget quota quickies, including the Michael Powell-directed The Love Test (1935). At Gainsborough Studios from 1936, he developed a reputation as a fast, very efficient lighting cameraman, and most of his work across the end of the 1930s and the early 1940s was confined to the company's bread-and-butter pictures, such as the Will Hay comedies, all movies that were immensely popular in England and guaranteed profit-producers, but hardly the kind of films to give a photographer opportunities for notable quality or inventiveness. By the mid-'40s, however, amid the exigencies of the Second World War, he had moved up to the studio's front ranks with a run of assignments on high-profile movies. Included among those pictures that he photographed at the time was Leslie Arliss' melodrama The Man in Grey, on which Crabtree, at long last, found an opportunity to go beyond the by-the-numbers efficiencies of his previous work. The look of the resulting movie seemingly melded Crabtree's personal preference for Expressionist elements with the studio-dictated emphasis on ornate period costuming and detail, and the result, when coupled with fiery performances by Margaret Lockwood and James Mason in the leading roles under Arliss' direction, was a huge hit for the studio. Indeed, The Man in Grey opened a new, highly exploitable sub-genre of period bodice-ripper melodramas that war-weary audiences whole-heartedly embraced, and not just in England; it also did respectable business on the far side of the Atlantic.
