I'm probably the source of at least some of these type of infractions. I have larger images the resolution of which needs to be preserved for them to be of maximum value to readers. From the start I've been concerned about how to display them correctly. I'm using Photo Bucket to store them and I tried using their "HTML Code" link, which I hoped would put a thumbnail and a link in the post, but upon previewing the BBS software appeared not to be able to process the code (at all). That left me either with using a direct link (and no thumbnail, unless I generated and posted it separately) or simply displaying the entire image (which in the end I did). Ideally a thumbnail image which is also a clickable link would minimize board bandwidth usage while allowing viewers to see if they are interested in the graphic or not. But as of yet I don't know how to achieve this, at least in a simple (non-kludge) way.
So, possibly like myself, some people are creating these problems because they don't have a proper solution at hand... or don't know any better. While its not the responsibility of board administration to hold our hands, if there is a proper technique to posting images that would resolve these issues and allow people to be satisfied that their work is both visible and not disruptive, that would be helpful. So a link to a mini-guide on the topic included with this reminder -- assuming one exists, or the creation of one if it does not (either by admin or board members) -- might be enormously helpful, preferably pinned in FAQ or Technical Support unless there is a better location. I apologize if one exists and I missed it (I did look).
And thank you for the reminder. Now I know why some pages are so hard to read.

HP laserjet P3005 wrinkling paper on the right side[ Edited ]
05-17-2011 01:04 PM - edited 05-17-2011 02:54 PM
I have a HP laserjet P3005 printer & when it prints the paper comes out all wrinkled & the toner smears on the right side of the page. This is something new that just started happening, the printer is about 2 yrs old. Anyone experience this and if so, what is the solution? New rollers?
Re: HP laserjet P3005 wrinkling paper on the right side
I believe this is the same problem I'm having--the paper seems to get the toner OK but comes out of the printer heavily creased with the toner smudged around the crease and at the top of the page. Did your printouts have a small indentation in the paper about a third of the way over from the right? Seems like it's hitting something and that's whats causing it to turn and wrinkle but I can't figure out what it's hitting unless the obstacle is inside the fuser.
Re: HP laserjet P3005 wrinkling paper on the right side
We are having the same problem, any word on the cause of this ?
Re: HP laserjet P3005 wrinkling paper on the right side
As best as I could determine, the covering on one of the rollers inside the fuser had started to shred and separate from the roller itself, causing the paper to hitch and become wrinkled and smudged. Gave the user the price of a new fuser and they elected to replace the entire printer instead. A P2055x was its replacement.

I was going through my tape recorder today and came across a one-on-one interview I had with Paul Holmgren in March. We were discussing Mike Richards and I asked him if he thought it was important for the captain of a hockey team to speak with the media.
This was Holmgren's response (remember, this was before all the post-season questions about Richards' captaincy) :
"I would hope that as he gets older and more mature he'll get better. I mean, I don't like dealing with you guys either, not because I don't like you guys or anything like that. To me, the focus should be on the players. I realize it's my job, that I have to talk to you guys sometimes. Mike is the captain of the hockey team and my conversation with him is that's part of your job as captain of the hockey team. And you're a good player, so they're going to come and talk to you. I'd like to believe he's going to continue to get better, just like he's going to continue to get better as a player. He's 26 now and I still don't think he's at the prime of his career. He's still going to continue to get better and I think he'll get better with you guys, too. He's a quiet guy. Carter's the same way, but as they get older I think they'll get better."

This Is Our Jam: Hot Chip, Waxahatchee, And Songs For Sunbathing
This week, we're fully embracing summer with tracks tailored to lazing lakeside and dancing the night away. We have new songs from the Danny Boyle-approved noise band Fuck Buttons, electro-pop wizards Hot Chip, and two Swedish exports, Postiljonen and Sally Shapiro. First, however, we're bringing you a nicely relaxed track from Portland-based duo Pure Bathing Culture, which has been on repeat since we first pressed play.
Pure Bathing Culture
With its new single "Pendulum," Pure Bathing Culture has managed to create the perfect mix of sultry vocals and hazy atmosphere. The track may seem slight at first, but its chorus has a way of sinking in and staying put. Don't be surprised if this is one of your favorite songs of summer come August.
Fuck Buttons
"The Red Wing (Edit)"
The earth's mightiest noise duo is finally back, and "The Red Wing" is our first taste of the band's new album, Slow Focus. With its mechanized beat and slow build, it's classic Fuck Buttons: aggressive, strange, and uplifting all at once.
Hot Chip
"Dark & Stormy"
It's been less than a year since Hot Chip dropped its excellent recent LP In Our Heads, but the synth-loving Brits are already back with a new single. "Dark & Stormy" shows the band in top form, with a slinky pop sound that lives up to its name.
"Coast to Coast"
With her new video for "Coast to Coast" Katie Crutchfield (a.k.a. Waxahatchee) bottles summer in all its river-going, sunbathing, acoustic-guitar-playing glory. Coupled with the track's fuzzed-out, '90s vibe, it's enough to make us play hooky and join Crutchfield down at the the Alabama creek from which her band takes its name.
Sally Shapiro
"Sundown" (Nite Jewel Remix)
Ramona Gonzalez (a.k.a. Nite Jewel) is much more than a good voice. Case in point: In this fantastic remix of Swedish Italo-disco chanteuse Sally Shapiro, Gonzalez takes an already great pop song and adds her own ephemeral spin.
"On the Run"
Another Swedish export, Postiljonen makes supremely pretty dream pop. "On the Run" has a world-expanding, M83-inspired sound that makes us want to hear it far away from the city.

Jamie Dimon spent over two hours in front of a largely polite Senate panel fielding questions about everything from J.P. Morgan's actual trading details to the Volcker rule to MF Global to lending more in Nebraska.
Here are some of the highlights:
On making the Tempest in the Teapot comment based on what his executives told him: "I'm allowed to rely on them."
J.P. Morgan's Chairman and CEO Jamie Dimon took to Capitol Hill today to testify before the Senate Banking Committee, his first congressional appearance since revealing "embarrassing" trading losses last month.
On the two-month anniversary of Dimon calling the London Whale a "tempest in a teapot," a comment dredged up quite a few times during the hearing, he both apologized and defended his bank several times. He said the changing risk models really didn't impact the bank, and the senators spent much time going back and forth over Volcker and capital rules, with tangents to talk about Dodd-Frank and MF Global, among other topics.
Here is a minute-by-minute recap of his two-plus hour testimony, which was truly calm except for some protestors at the start.
J.P. Morgan shares, somewhat oddly, are one of the few banking stocks up today. The stock has been hammered since the trading losses were revealed and are down 22% in the past 3 months total. They are up 0.4% to $33.89 this morning, just about the only big bank rising.
Jamie Dimon faces the Senate Banking committee today for a hotly anticipated, post-Memorial Day grilling.
Dimon's prepared testimony, released last night, sounds largely contrite. But Dimon is not one to capitulate to criticism and will also defend his bank and the industry, talking up the services it provides.
The senators, however, will look to control where this hearing goes. And given it is an election year and banking regulation has been a heated debate topic between the parties, there will be plenty of politicking as well.
Tim Johnson (D. South Dakota), the chairman of the committee, is going to point out that it was just two months ago today that Dimon, on J.P. Morgan's first-quarter conference call, referred to the London Whale as a "tempest in a teapot," according to Politico. That's a quote Dimon has been living down since and likely will again today, much to his own embarrassment.
Johnson will go on to ask "For a bank renowned for its risk management, where were the risk controls? How can a bank take on 'far too much risk' if the point of the trades was to reduce risk in the first place? Or was the goal really to make money?" says Politico.
For the past week Jamie Dimon has probably been facing a "murder board."
That's what the public relations industry, in its understated way, likes to call the standard preparations for an executive ahead of a congressional grilling.
Wednesday morning, the head of the nation's largest bank, will face the real thing: a senate panel, entitled "A Breakdown in Risk Management: What Went Wrong at JPMorgan Chase?"
It is Dimon's latest public appearance since J.P. Morgan was rocked by revelations of a trading loss from a risk-management unit in London. The committee will likely probe what Dimon knew about the London Whale and trading by the chief investment office and when he knew it.
Public relations experts warn that Dimon will have to perform a a careful dance in front of senators that smell blood.
J.P. Morgan's Jamie Dimon will tell a Senate Banking panel Wednesday that the traders inside the Chief Investment Office that has cost billions in a trade "did not have the requisite understanding of the risks they took."
Dimon's prepared testimony is to reiterate that "we have let a lot of people down, and we are sorry for it" and explain again what he believes lead to the trading blunder.
He is to say the risk controls were "generally ineffective" and "not as formal and robust" as they should have been. He will again call the losses embarrassing, but also seek to remind the senators of the size of J.P. Morgan and the positive impact it has in the world.
The CEO of the bank will be the only witness in front of the panel tomorrow.
The contest to invest in Technicolor has taken another turn, yet remains in same place.
J.P. Morgan on Friday offered to increase its bid to match a competing offer from Vector Capital, but management at Technicolor decided it would stick to recommending the lower earlier offer.
Technicolor says it rejected J.P. Morgan's offer of more money because J.P. Morgan was seeking a break-up fee to be implemented and for the offer not to be put to a shareholder vote.
The Paris-based company, which provides digital technology in the film and media world, said it had to under French law put the offers to a vote, scheduled for next week, and felt that adding in the terms would make the deal less likely to close.
A French media technology company has found itself in the middle of competing investment bids, in a fight that has been colored by the trading losses rocking J.P. Morgan Chase & Co.
Technicolor, a Paris-based cinema productions services company facing a debt crunch, had reached a deal last month for an investment of up to $182 million from J.P. Morgan's One Equity Partners and its Special Investments Group, part of the bank's chief investment office. The chief investment office placed corporate credit trades that have cost the bank over $2 billion and have recently dented its reputation for risk-management.
Vector Capital, a U.S. private-equity shop in San Francisco, has launched a competing bid for Technicolor, at a higher price, that this week gained the backing of proxy-advisory firm ISS and Alex Slusky, founder and head of Vector Capital, said in an interview he thinks the uncertainty surrounding J.P. Morgan could help Vector's case. Vector's offer will be pitted against J.P. Morgan's in a Technicolor shareholder vote June 20.
Technicolor, which provides digital technology in the film and media world, has recommended shareholders side with J.P. Morgan, calling it the "leading worldwide entertainment financier." A Technicolor spokeswoman declined to comment Wednesday.
Five key regulators appeared before the Senate Banking Committee on Wednesday to discuss risk in the financial system and J.P. Morgan's recent trading losses.
OCC Chief Thomas Curry along with officials from the Treasury, the Federal Reserve, the FDIC and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau offered testimony on the broad topic of "Enhancing Bank Supervision and Reducing Systemic Risk" as well as the J.P. Morgan's trading losses.
The hearing marks the first broad disclosure from regulators about their interactions with J.P. Morgan and the events leading up to a loss of $2 billion or more at the bank's Chief Investment Office.
Here's who testified and what they said.
The risk management changes continue at J.P. Morgan as it battles the fallout from its trading blunder.
The New York bank is now facing a wider probe by the CFTC, as WSJ reports this morning, and CEO Jamie Dimon is going to have to be in front of two congressional panels this month, where he'll need answers. Along with the shakeups at the chief investment office, Dimon can now add several role changes inside risk management to his answers in front of lawmakers.
Ashley Bacon is moved to Deputy Risk Officer, a promotion to a higher risk position directly under top-risk watcher John Hogan.
Meanwhile, the CRO's of wholesale credit, consumer and card operations have all been shuffled as well.
Here's the latest internal memo from J.P. Morgan, signed by Hogan:
By Christian Berthelsen and Matthias Rieker
In the world of banking, it is not very often that Regions Financial gets the better of J.P. Morgan.
Count their recent stock performances as a rare case.
The markets just closed the book on May and the results are in: J.P. Morgan was the Dow's worst performer in May, losing $9.83 off the share price, or 22.9%, to $33.15. It is also one of the few large banks down for the year.
The stock swooned after the bank announced a $2 billion trading loss May 10 on synthetic credit derivatives.
The decline translates to a market value loss of $37.4 billion — a magnitude of more than 18x the size of the trading loss and about four-times the size of Regions' market capitalization.

Again it's time to school, I pack the make-up on around my eyes I
slowly apply eye-liner all around, Add some black eye-shadow with
a tiny bit of gold over the top as it brings out my deep-blue
eyes. I straighten my long blonde hair. I find the shortest
black skirt I have and the tightest white shirt I have, Can't
forget my black and red arm-warmers to hide the scares from
everyone they don't need to know I cut. I look in the mirror and
think 'is this really who you are Jazzi, is this really who you
want to be?' I am so glad my school colours are black and white
not like other stupid schools that have to wear bright colours.
mind you our normal uniform is quite un-flattering that is why I
never wear the school uniform I just Wear the right colours, but
then again when do I wear anything different.
The bus ride to school is always the same all I see is trees, grass and more trees. Why can't I live in the city where something exciting might actually happen? School is usually the same but today something was different. Today people were staring at me and laughing when usually they don't even notice me. My only friend Ashleigh came running up grabbed me on the wrist which was still hurting from last night's incidents and dragged into a supply closet. She held up her phone to my face and there it was the photo that I always knew would destroy my life. On her phone was a picture of my naked pale body, you could see everything. Ashleigh quickly slaps me across the face and storms out of the closet which wasn't so bad compared to what was about to go down.
I contemplate weather to even walk out of the supply closet, I just sort of stand there in shock when the cleaner walks in and gives me a disgusted look and tells me to get out. Really? The cleaner too how could this one picture get around so fast. There is a good reason to why I did this but I really can't explain. Not now not to these people they just wouldn't understand would they? But it is too late now, I did what I did and now I am going to have to face the whole school like this.
I walk out of the supply closet clutching onto my 'Pon and Zi' hand bag. All around me people are staring and calling names.so many people were talking and looking at me it was hard to understand what they were saying but I could make-out some words like whore, slut and tart but then the loudest voice of all comes screaming at me "you little fucking hoe, how dare you send my boyfriend photos of your fat disgusting body?" Screams Hilary as she pushes me onto the ground.
I slowly climb back up on my feet and grab her perfect brown hair and pull it as hard as I can. She clutches onto my hand to get me to release but I won't. All around us people are screaming "fight! Fight! Fight!" She starts digging her manicured nails into my fist that is currently in her hair. I let her hair go and take a step back then I punch her right on her left cheek attached to her pretty little face that is now already starting to bruise. A teacher comes running down the hallway grabs me tightly by the wrist and pulls me into the School office.
In the office I sit on the 'Naughty chair' outside the principal's office. I look down the hallway down towards the sickbay where Hilary is. I can see her looking down at the ground holding an ice pack to her face. One of the nurses that works in the sickbay walks out and gives me the dirtiest look as if it was my fault which it wasn't she pushed me first and she called me a hoe which I'm not. Five minutes later "get in here now Miss Jazmine Turner" screams the principals voice
Jazmine turner? Who still calls me that? My name is Jazzi and that's how it's been since grade 4.
I slowly walk into the principal's office not wanting to know what he has to say about this. When I get in there he is on the phone to my mum. I can hear my mum screeching on the other end of the line.
"what?! I'm sure its just a misunderstanding, my daughter wouldn't do that" I can already hear the pain in her voice and it makes me feel so small and worthless. "well I'm afraid misses Tuner its true I have seen the photo myself someone had reported it to me and as for the fight Ill let her off the hook this time but next time she starts a fight it will be a suspension, I recommend Jazmine goes home for the rest of the day ill send her home when I'm done talking her."
The principal stares at me confusedly and holds up a printed out version of the same picture on Ashleigh's Phone.
"This was on my desk this morning can you explain it?"
"No, uh I can't explain it but why do you still have it"
"Because you have a beautiful body" The principal smirks at me. He gets out of his chair walks to the door closes it and then locks it, he quickly closes the curtains and turns back around to look at me.
"wha-what are you doing" I Stutter.
"I want you to love me Jazmine, I want to see this body on me" He points to the naked picture of me resting face-up on his desk. I cringe uncomfortably in my chair.

St. Vincent College campus post office stays busy
St. Vincent College junior Stephanie Rukavina picked up a long rectangular box on Valentine's Day from the campus post office, fairly sure the package contained flowers from her boyfriend.
"I wasn't expecting it, so I'm excited," said the junior from Leechburg.
Donna Werner, who manages the post office on the Unity campus, said holidays keep her, assistant manager Maria Schiafano and four student aides busy stuffing 1,745 student mailboxes.
Werner has worked at the post office for 25 years, with the last 10 as manager. During that time, even with the increased use of email and text messaging, the daily whirlwind at the campus post office continues, especially since enrollment has increased from about 1,100 when she first started.
"Try to get it in; try to get it out," Werner said.
The typical day starts with the incoming mail, when the office normally receives at least one tray of letters and at least seven laundry basket-sized bins. On a busy day, like those leading up to Christmas, the workers have to sort three large carts of mail.
Werner knows many of the students by name, including one who asks "Miss Donna" to open her box for her, or Jameson Ragan, a sophomore business major who often gets mail since his family is from the Los Angeles area.
"It's always a good surprise to get stuff from back home," he said.
Werner said she likes mentoring students, many of whom are out on their own for the first time and may have never had to visit the post office before.
"When they're freshmen, you have to guide them," she said. "They always need a little bit of guidance. They're coming out into the world not knowing anything, and you've got to help them a little bit."
The students who assist Werner sort faculty mail, administrative mail and monastery mail.
Interdepartmental and "house" mail between students gets handled in the Placid Hall office, which runs methodically, like the inner workings of a clock.
The system for delivering packages starts with a spreadsheet of students' names, then a ticket is put in each individual mailbox before the student approaches the counter to sign it out.
On the February holiday, Werner handled at least 10 bouquets of flowers, but what worried her more were the perishable items: two edible arrangements and chocolate-covered strawberries sent through an online store.
Those students got emails, then phone calls before the end of the day, but all of the valentines were delivered to their recipients.
Between now and the end of the year, Werner said things will slow down without any similar holidays, but over the summer, they will stay busy even without any students.
Staff prepare during that time for a new crop of incoming students, organizing the mailboxes and bracing for the onslaught of textbooks and supplies that students buy online.
Werner is thankful nothing too unusual has come through the office, except for the occasional bouncy ball, message in a bottle or 60-inch television set.
She said the "hubbub" is continuous.
"It might not be busy with mail, but it's busy with other stuff, getting ready for the upcoming year," she said. "We're always busy."

Michigan may suddenly become an early presidential battleground as the state considers holding a primary in mid-January, and Republican Mitt Romney is staking out perhaps some unusual territory (for him, anyway). Yesterday, the former Massachusetts governor formed the Romney for President Michigan Small Business Coalition. According to his campaign, the "committee of 30 men and women will advise Governor Romney on the important economic issues affecting the people and small businesses of Michigan."
Of course, Romney has family ties to Michigan -- he grew up there, and his father George served as governor -- but the younger Romney needs all the advice he can get on the difficulties small businesses face. His father, after all, was auto exec, while Mitt made his great fortune as a consultant and fund manager. The coalition, chaired by three state legislators with small business backgrounds, draws its members from across the state, though only three are women. The Romney campaign hasn't yet gotten back to The Entrepreneurial Agenda about the coalition's agenda, and whether it will really "advise" the Romney campaign or merely market for it.
In other Romney news, the candidate is set to outline a detailed healthcare proposal in a speech this afternoon in Florida. Press previews indicate that he will distinguish himself from his rivals by proposing a state-by-state solution. On first reflection, this strikes the Agenda as a fairly meaningless distinction -- the needs states have and the problems they face aren't all that different. Stay tuned.
Update, 11:35 a.m.: Just heard from Alex Burgos, a director of media for the Romney campaign. He says the coalitions -- there are business coalitions in Iowa and New Hampshire as well -- will serve largely to get the Romney message out to the small business constituency, identify new supporters, and fund-raise. But, he adds, they will also consult with the campaign about policy. "These are people who are on the frontlines of the American economy -- they're the ones who are dealing with issues of taxation and regulation," Burgos said. Such committees, he added, hold periodic conference calls and meetings, and "the information flows both ways."

Comparing gun control to Prohibition invalid
This is in response to the letter in the Dec. 21 Press, "Gun ban won't stop violence in America."
Comparing gun control to Prohibition is ridiculous. Very few people will make homemade guns. Most gun violence is due to suicide, family arguments when a gun is available, accidents where a gun is available, and people who snap and suddenly start shooting.
The answer is simple: Take away the gun, problem solved. In hardly any of these cases would the shooter take the time and trouble to replicate a gun.
Michael I. Frischberg
Free speech does have consequences
So the television network A&E suspended "Duck Dynasty" patriarch Phil Robertson for asserting his bigoted beliefs to a journalist. Don't corporate execs have the right to suspend or fire an employee who misrepresents the company he or she works for?
They made a sensible business decision because the reality show actor's assertions castigated gays in a disgusting manner as well as likened them to terrorists, offended African-Americans with remarks that demonstrated a profound ignorance of their state of mind in the Jim Crow era, and blasted not only Japanese culture but indirectly any and all folks whose belief systems do not include Jesus.
Ironically, what all this did was give right-wing politicos and talking heads, ignoring a tenet of free-market capitalism they espouse when convenient, a soap box to rant and rave about First Amendment violations and how Robertson's perspectives were consistent with biblical verses.
What biblical interpretations compare gay folks to terrorists? What rational - and I emphasize rational - biblical interpretations belittle a large swath of humanity or spew hateful remarks about folks with victimless divergent points of view and modes of behavior? Furthermore, isn't the Christian Bible, the one I assume Robertson interprets, supposed to be about love and forgiveness?
In any event, A&E violated no First Amendment rights nor demeaned any worthwhile biblical interpretations. Robertson had every right to speak his mind; however speech has consequences, especially speech that strays from contractual obligations implied or otherwise, as a suspended Robertson soon found out.
Then again, amidst all the hoopla generated by bloviating hucksters using the limelight for personal gain, the Robertson clan will surely make a fortune selling duck calls, T-shirts and other paraphernalia to outraged sympathizers, duck hunters, de rigueur attention-seekers and others.
Only in America can a crude bigot or an unscrupulous marketing genius with a master's degree in education end up winning the merchandising lottery after being suspended from a high-paying job. Maybe Robertson deserves a Golden Fleece award for a reality performance par excellence with a GQ reporter, if that in fact is what he was doing. Or maybe he just got lucky being himself.
Still, it is extremely sad that gay folks, African-American folks, Japanese and other ethnic folks were abused and exploited by less than decent folks during this contemptible episode. Let us hope there are no reruns.

Introduction / History
"I believe I can attain new horizons in my career. I know I can take your company to the highest possible level! My scholastic achievement at the Uttar Pradesh Technical University prepared me so I can meet all your greatest demands." Abhishek, a young Barahseni entrepreneur, firmly believed what he said at his job interview for employment as a Telecommunications Manager at a large company in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh.
What Are Their Lives Like?
Barahseni people, also known as Varshney, are well recognized as prestigious businessmen, bankers, prominent landowners, professionals and civil service workers who live primarily in Uttar Pradesh. They have taken their skills to several other parts of the world where many of them are financially very successful. They also are known to make generous contributions to charity.
What Are Their Beliefs?
Their Hindu heritage is connected to Akrura who is described as the commander in chief of the Varshney dynasty and a great devotee of Lord Krishna, an important Hindu god who is portrayed as youthful with supreme powers. There are almost no followers of Christ among these highly successful people.
Prayer Points
* Pray that God will bring committed believers to open the eyes and ears of the Barahseni people so that they can learn about the wisdom, truth, and love found in the person of Jesus Christ.
* Pray that they will desire to serve the true God who has given them many gifts.

This is my bike. There are many like it…
This topic contains 11 replies, has 8 voices, and was last updated by Caaveman82 2 years, 8 months ago.
but this one is mine. I built it, I got all the parts and put it all together (Minus the rear wheel, Chris Ames from Freewheel built the shit out of it for me.) myself.
I went with the Surly Cross Check because I wanted a super duper work horse bike. Something to commute on, something I could possibly tour with, something that wouldn't jar all my bones loose if I ever took it on a rough surface, something I could go for speed on if I wished. This sucker does all these things.
All though with the new Hospital Foam Green I kind of have buyers remorse on the frame color but oh well.
So the rear wheel is a DT Swiss 350 hub and TK540 rim. Super beefy. I actually managed to knock the thing out of true last week but it was a fairly extreme situation that I should have stayed away from, honestly I am impressed it is still in one piece.
The whole drive train is the SRAM Rival cyclocross kit in a box. So Rival all around and Avid Shortys, nothing is bad and I really enjoy the action on the SRAM levers compared to the way Shimano shifts. Neither is better than the other, it comes down to preference, really.
This bike is super fun to ride. I commute on it constantly, it handles city streets just fine. I can take this sucker down to the river bottoms and it can handle most of that stuff, but not all. I did a tour on this thing too, 40 lbs loaded on the back and rode from Kingsfield area to Afton State Park. Even with all the weight plus me, this thing handled like a dream and still climbed hills no problem. I like the ergo drop bars on this thing too. When I strip the rack and fenders I can use this bike as a road machine and crank out some quick miles. I love it.
Front wheel is a Mavic A719 or something like that laced to a Shimano Deore XT hub, also super duper beefy. I had bought that wheel for my previous bike when I cracked the front rim on that one, so I decided to keep using it. Other stuff I like is the Brooks saddle, I always thought the Brooks saddle excitement was a bunch of hype from all the hipsters out there until I read the blogs of a lot of people that do extended touring and praise their Brooks saddle. So I tried one, holy shit.
So that is my bike.

How Do You Stop a Drug Dealer?
How to stop a drug dealer? How can we close? How can we get them to stop selling to our friends and neighbors? It is important to note here that this is not the answer to get someone out or stay off drugs. To eliminate drugs from any part of the equation is not the answer to all.
However, after returning from rehab or just get and stay clean, some people choose to throw away their current phone and start from scratch. They do not want the previous contacts to contact them. And they do not want to be tempted to dial any of them either. Let's face it. We know very few numbers more memory. All of them are on speed dial. Get rid of the phone, problem solved. This is a good start for many.
I would like to present a fantasy of mine. Let's call this concept VOICE SPAM. We all know that drug dealers have a powerful tool in your arsenal. That instrument is the cell phone. So I ask you, if you know a drug dealers cell phone number, how you can start to close it? Or at least close that number?
Off number one drug dealer is closing its business. Yes, he can and will go get another number. But what about all the people who only know him for his old number? He will have to call each of them and prepare all of the impending change or you will lose a considerable amount of business. Then we do it again to your new number. The beauty of this concept, which has no idea who leaked his number in the first place.
If I am sure, and I mean the certainty that I know the phone number to the person who is selling drugs to my son, this is what I would do. I would give that number to each person listening. I emailed everyone in my contacts. I charge all the shops in the city. I distribute it to everyone at work. You get the drift.
Now, do not post the name of the person. Let the world know that his first name is "X" and is a drug dealer. Do not tell anyone that he is selling his son. You said … "Myself and some people are trying to force this guy to change his number." That's it. We're trying to see how many days will it take before he can no longer respond to incoming calls, so the choice to remove that number.
Imagine being a drug dealer. Suddenly, in one day, you get twenty calls from blocked numbers. Each caller has a different voice. Each call will start making more and more paranoid. What would you do? You wake up in the morning and the phone is ringing off the hook again. Probably pack your bags and head to the bus station. On the way to the station probably would dump this phone as well. Therefore, possibly saving the life of a child in the city that is calling out to you to buy a bag of drugs that would OD'd.

lol this sounds so stupid, drug dealers usually aren't strangers to changing phone numbers, and just harassing them isn't going to help anyone, you are just spewing negative energy out into the world, two wrongs don't make a right. Its not the drug dealer's fault your kids want drugs.

It's official: Arnold Schwarzenegger's nickname during his stretch as the Governor of California is about to take form as a new crime-fighting superhero.
The 63-year-old has announced that he's teaming up with legendary comic book genius Stan Lee to bring the animated series, titled "The Governator" to life.
"When I ran for governor back in 2003 and I started hearing people talking about 'The Governator', I thought the word was so cool," he told Entertainment Weekly. "The word Governator combined two worlds – the world of politics and the movie world. And the cartoon brings everything together. It combines the governor, the 'Terminator', the bodybuilding world, the 'True Lies' world."
Said Stan: "Only after he leaves the governor's office, Arnold decides to become a crime fighter and builds a secret high-tech crime-fighting centre under his house in Brentwood."
Um, ok! Apparently, there's a whole teenager team that assists Schwarzenegger as well in his fight against – and this is serious – an evil organisation called Gangsters Imposters Racketeers Liars and Irredeemable Ex-cons, or G.I.R.L.I.E. Men, for short.
Seriously, if this info had leaked a day later, I would have instantly thought "April Fools!". But hey – if it's entertaining, kids won't care. I do, however, believe that many will continue to take offense to the whole "Girlie Men" thing. Seems like they could have come up with a better, less controversial name for the villains.
"The Governator" is expected to hit sometime next year.

Home > Health Library > Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Serial Casting
Some children who have developed mild to moderate
contractures (knees, ankles, wrists, fingers, elbows)
may benefit from serial casting.
Serial casting is a temporary straightening and casting of the
affected joint (for about 2 days). The cast is then removed, the child goes
through some physical therapy, and a new cast is applied with the joint
stretched a bit more.
The procedure is repeated with the joint a little straighter each
time. This process continues until maximal straightening has occurred. A
resting splint may be worn at night for 3 to 6 months afterwards.
Serial casting may be able to restore the ability to straighten a
mildly contracted joint, but it is unlikely to improve severe

Selena Gomez has reportedly decided to give boyfriend Justin Bieber another chance despite the "heartache" he caused her over allegedly flirting with Victoria's Secret models at the Angels Fashion Show two weeks ago in New York.
The couple were alleged to have split over Bieber's flirty performance at the show, with Selena seemingly annoyed her boyfriend was spotted with one of the models, Barbara Palvin, the following night at a performance on the Lion King.
A source told the New York Post: "[Selena is] far from happy with how he has treated her."
But "with much heartache," has given the star another chance.
The pair were spotted hanging out together backstage at the American Music Awards on Sunday, with the Wizards of Waverly Place actress by JB's side at the after party in Los Angeles.
But despite seemingly back together the insider admitted things are still not perfect, adding: "Things are still pretty volatile between them."
Selena enjoyed some girl time over the weekend when she met up with Taylor Swift for dinner. Justin and Selena have been dating for around two years.

|Platelets with a W127X mutation in GPIX express sufficient residual amounts of GPIbα to support adhesion to von Willebrand factor and collagen.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23143686 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by a defect in the platelet glycoprotein (GP) Ib/IX complex. The GPIX W127X mutation is the most common genetic defect in Japanese patients with BSS, which is often misdiagnosed as immune thrombocytopenic purpura, presumably due to residual expression of GPIbα. Neither the mechanism by which this mutation leads to a mild bleeding diathesis, nor whether functional GPIbα is expressed on platelet surfaces is known. We investigated GPIbα expression and function in platelets with a GPIX W127X mutation (GPIXW127X). GPIbα complexed with GPIbβ by disulfide bonding was expressed on GPIXW127X platelets and stable CHO-K1 cells lacking GPIX but expressing GPIbα and GPIbβ. Expression of GPIbα/β on GPIXW127X platelets was sufficient to support adhesion to immobilized von Willebrand factor and type III collagen and ristocetin-induced platelet agglutination. A residual amount of functional GPIbα/β heteromer expressed on GPIXW127X platelets partially compensates for the absence of the GPIb/IX complex. This may account for the mild bleeding phenotype of the BSS variant characterized by a non-sense mutation in GPIX.

|Large scale MALDI-TOF MS based taxa identification to identify novel pigment producers in a marine bacterial culture collection.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23132278 Owner: NLM Status: Publisher
|A challenge in the rational exploitation of microbial culture collections is to avoid superfluous testing of replicas. MALDI-TOF MS has been shown to be an efficient dereplication tool as it can be used to discriminate between bacterial isolates at the species level. A bacterial culture collection of more than 10,000 heterotrophic marine bacterial isolates from sea-water surface layers of the Norwegian Trondheimsfjord and neighbouring coastal areas has been established. A sub-collection of pigmented isolates was earlier screened for novel carotenoids with UVA-Blue light absorbing properties. This was a comprehensive analytical task and it was observed that a significant number of extracts with identical pigment profile were recovered. Hence, this study was undertaken to explore the use of MALDI-TOF MS as a dereplication tool to quickly characterize the bacterial collection. Furthermore, LC-DAD-MS analysis of pigment profiles was performed to check if pigment profile diversity was maintained among isolates kept after the potential MALDI-TOF MS selection step. Four hundred isolates comprising both pigmented and non-pigmented isolates were used for this study. The resulting MALDI-TOF MS dendrogram clearly identified a diversity of different taxa and these were supported by the pigment profile clustering, thus linking the pigment production as species-specific properties. Although one exception was found, it can be concluded that MALDI-TOF MS dereplication is a promising pre-screening tool for more efficient screening of microbial culture collection containing pigments with potential novel properties.

The BrainLAB machine at CoxHeath that overradiated patients due to a calibration error. / Nathan Papes / News-Leader
The same day CoxHealth announced a calibration error led to 76 people being overdosed with radiation, the hospital sent a letter to the Food and Drug Administration urging new regulations to prevent future overdoses.
After a series of medical imaging overdose incidents came to light in October across the country, the FDA began an initiative to better regulate the industry, and CoxHealth President and CEO Robert Bezanson says regulation also needs to extend to radiation treatments.
"While the FDA's initiative is commendable, it does not go far enough," Bezanson said in the Feb. 24 letter. "Rather than limiting the scope of radiation exposure in the context of medical imaging, the initiative should be broadened to include regulation of medical radiation therapy as well."
The CoxHealth overdose was the result of an incorrectly calibrated attachment on a machine that delivers radiation to specific spots on the body.
Hospital officials said the machine itself, a linear accelerator, works fine and patients shouldn't be concerned about those radiation treatments. The danger came from the attachment -- a BrainLAB m3 multileaf collimator -- when it was calibrated for areas 1.1 centimeters or smaller, they said.
The error was the result of a physicist -- a board-certified and Ph.D-educated technician -- using the wrong tool to calibrate the BrainLAB attachment on the radiation machine, according to Dr. John Duff, senior vice president of hospital operations.
The error went undetected for five years, until September 2009 when a newly hired second physicist questioned the calibrating tools used by the chief physicist, he said.
Duff said the hospital has been working to notify patients of the overdose since discovering just how off the calibration was on Feb. 16.
"During this process, we have learned that there is neither a federal agency, nor agency in the state of Missouri, that closely regulates the use of this type of medical radiation, or that even requires reporting of incidents of radiation overexposure such as ours," Bezanson wrote in the FDA letter.
The New York Times has been following radiation overdoses since an article in January described the painful result of too much radiation. After public outcry and further coverage, the FDA and other groups have said they're working to implement better oversight procedures.
The U.S. Committee on Energy and Commerce has scheduled a hearing today to discuss the dangerous of radiation overdoses. Experts from the American College of Radiology, an agency that accredits radiology departments, will be speaking at the hearing.
