House Judiciary Panel OKs Subpoena for Rove
Member of a House Judiciary subcommittee have voted to authorize subpoenas to require Karl Rove and four other senior Bush administration officials to testify under oath in the inquiry into the dismissals of eight federal prosecutors. President Bush has vowed to fight the subpoenas if they are issued. White House Counsel Fred Fielding has said Rove and others can meet with lawmakers but only it is done behind closed doors and not under oath. This is House Judiciary Chair John Conyers.
Rep. John Conyers: "What Fred Fielding said to us yesterday was so disconcerting and so off the mark that obviously anyone who comes before the committee would have to be under oath. we don't do anything off the record."
16-Day Gap Revealed in Emails Released on U.S Attorney Firings
Earlier this week, the Justice Department released 3,000 pages of documents related to the firings, but it has been revealed that there is a 16-day gap in the emails. The documents include almost no correspondence between November 15 and December 2, right before the attorneys were asked for their resignations.
Tony Snow Once Criticized Clinton for Exerting Executive Privilege
Meanwhile, the White House is also being questioned about its claims that it has the executive privilege to bar presidential advisers from testifying before Congress. Nearly 10 years ago White House Press Secretary Tony Snow publicly criticized President Clinton for resisting efforts to have his aides testify about Monica Lewinsky. At the time, Snow wrote: "Taken to its logical extreme, that position would make it impossible for citizens to hold a chief executive accountable for anything. He would have a constitutional right to cover up."
Ex-U.S. Attorney Accuses Justice Dept. of Politicizing Prosecution
In related news, The Washington Post reports that a former U.S. attorney who prosecuted a landmark lawsuit against tobacco companies has admitted that political appointees in the Justice Department repeatedly ordered her to take steps that weakened the government's case. Sharon Eubanks said she was ordered to drop a recommendation that tobacco executives be removed from their corporate positions as a possible penalty. The Justice Department also urged Eubanks to seek less money from the tobacco companies. The government originally sought a $130 billion settlement, but at the last moment the request was dropped to just $10 billion. Eubanks said, "When decisions are made now in the Bush attorney general's office, politics is the primary consideration. ... The rule of law goes out the window."
Al Gore Testifies Before Congress on Global Warming
Former Vice President Al Gore testified before Congress on Wednesday and warned that global warming is a crisis that threatens the survival of civilization and is the most dangerous crisis in American history.
Al Gore: "The planet has a fever. If your baby has a fever, you go to the doctor. If your doctor says you need to intervene here, you don't say, 'Well, I read a science fiction novel that tells me it's not a problem.' If the crib's on fire, you don't speculate that the baby is flame-retardant. You take action. The planet has a fever."
Al Gore called for national freeze on new emissions of carbon dioxide, new taxes on polluters, a ban on incandescent light bulbs, an increase of fuel-efficiency standards for cars and a new global treaty to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Al Gore: "There have been times in the past when our nation has been called upon to rise above partisanship, above political calculations, above the pressures which have always been present for two-and-a-quarter centuries from special interests of this, that or the other kind and reach across the aisle and do what history is calling upon all of us Americans to do. America is the natural leader of the world, and our world faces a true planetary emergency."
U.S. Releases Canadian Boy from Immigration Jail
A nine-year-old Canadian boy has been released along with his parents from an immigration jail in Texas where they were detained for six weeks. Kevin Yourdkhani and his Iranian-born parents arrived in Toronto last night. They had been held in a controversial privately owned jail in Texas where the U.S. government is holding up to 200 immigrant children. They were detained after their flight to Canada was forced to make an emergency landing in Puerto Rico. The family was fleeing political repression in Iran and were trying to seek refugee status in Canada where their son had been born. Four weeks ago, Kevin Yourdkhani spoke to Democracy Now! in his first broadcast interview.
Kevin Yourdkhani: "I want to be free. I want to go outside, and I want to go to school. I want to be in my homeland: Canada."
Following that interview, public outcry intensified in Canada. Two weeks ago the Canadian government agreed to give Kevin's parents a temporary residency permit. Human rights groups are now calling for the U.S. government to stop jailing immigrant children and for the T. Don Hutto facility in Taylor, Texas, to be shut down. We'll have more on the story in a few minutes.
Pentagon Looks to Send More Arms to Middle Eastern Nations
The Boston Globe is reporting the State Department and the Pentagon are quietly seeking congressional approval for significant new military sales to U.S. allies in the Persian Gulf region. The move is seen as part of a broader U.S. strategy to contain Iranian influence by strengthening Iran's neighbors. The arms sales could spark concerns that further military buildup in the region would bring Washington closer to a confrontation with Iran. The Bush administration is reportedly considering sales of sophisticated air and missile defense systems, advanced early warning radar aircraft that could detect low-flying missiles, and light coastal combat ships that could sweep the Gulf for mines and help gather underwater intelligence. All of the nations that might receive the new arms are Sunni-ruled countries. They include Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Oman.
U.S. Soldiers Sentenced for Abuse in Iraq
In news on Iraq, a U.S. soldier has been sentenced to 27 months in prison for his role in the raping of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and killing her family. Private Bryan Howard was sentenced after he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to obstruct justice and being an accessory after the fact. At a hearing in Iraq last year, testimony indicated Howard did not participate in the crime itself but lied to investigators in an attempt to cover up the crime. Earlier this week a U.S. staff sergeant was sentenced to 10 years in prison for his role in killing three Iraqi detainees.
Pentagon: Reports of Sexual Assault in Military Up 24%
The Pentagon has announced that reports of sexual assaults involving members of the U.S. military increased by 24 percent over the last year. There were nearly 3,000 reports of alleged sexual assault cases involving members of the armed forces. 2006 marked the first year that victims were allowed to report assaults confidentially.
20 Die in Intense Fighting in Somalia
In Somalia, at least 20 people died on Wednesday in some of the heaviest fighting in Mogadishu since U.S.-backed Ethiopian troops invaded Somalia three months ago. Somali militants dragged the bodies of five soldiers through the streets and set them on fire. Much of the fighting has been between militant backers of the Islamic Courts Union and Ethiopian troops. There are now near daily mortar attacks and shootouts in Mogadishu. Refugee groups say tens of thousands of Somalis have fled the country in recent months. On Wednesday, the Bush administration insisted progress was being made in Somalia. This is Michael Ranneberger, U.S. ambassador to Kenya:
Michael Ranneberger: "We are trying to assist the transitional government to establish security on the ground and that reflect to both the day-to-day security as well as obviously ensuring that terrorists cannot exploit, cannot use Somalia as safe heaven. We are helping the transitional government at the same time. Part of that is obviously is to establish its authority on the ground as the legitimate government of Somalia."
Pakistan Tests Nuclear-Capable Cruise Missiles
The Pakistani military has announced it has successfully test-fired a nuclear-capable cruise missile with the capability to avoid radar detection. The missile reportedly has a range of over 400 miles.
U.S. Gives Pakistani Gov't Sophisticated Spy Technology
Meanwhile, The Guardian newspaper reports the Bush administration has been providing the Pakistani intelligence agency, the ISI, with sophisticated new spy technology to trace mobile phones, bug houses and telephone calls, and monitor large volumes of email traffic. The Guardian reports the Bush administration gave Pakistan the technology to help track members of al-Qaeda, but the government has also used the technology to track political dissidents. Since 9/11, hundreds of Pakistanis with no ties to al-Qaeda have disappeared after being seized by the ISI. One former CIA official said the Pakistani government now has the ability to drive vans down streets and monitor phone conversations taking place in every house they pass.
100 Dead in Pakistan Fighting
In other news from Pakistan, fighting between Pakistani forces and al-Qaeda militants has reportedly left over 100 people dead, including dozens of foreign fighters from Uzbekistan.
U.S. Lawmaker Criticizes Plan Colombia
The chair of the House Armed Services Committee said the U.S government should consider stopping sending billions of dollars in aid to Colombia as part of the so-called war on drugs. Democrat Representative Ike Skelton said Plan Colombia has failed to keep illegal drugs off the streets of the United States. Skelton also raised concerns about ties between the government of Colombian President Alvaro Uribe and right-wing paramilitary groups.
Chiquita Defends Paying Colombian Terrorist Group
Meanwhile, the Cincinnati-based fruit company Chiquita is defending its decision to fund a Colombian right-wing paramilitary group that is considered a terrorist organization by the U.S. government. This is Chiquita Senior Vice President James Thompson.
James Thompson: "The payments made by the company at all times were motivated by the company's good-faith desire and concern for the safety of all of its employees. Nevertheless, we recognize the obligation to disclose the facts and circumstances of this admittedly difficult situation to the United States government and the Department of Justice."
Chiquita has agreed to pay the U.S. government a fine of $25 million for helping to fund a terrorist organization.
White House Vows to Veto Bill to Give D.C. Voting Rights
Back in this country, the House is preparing to vote on Friday to grant the District of Columbia a full seat in the House of Representatives. Last week, two House committees approved the measure. However, the White House is threatening to veto the bill if it reaches the president. The 580,000 residents of the District of Columbia do not have voting representation in the U.S. House or the Senate. Ilir Zherka of the group D.C. Vote criticized the president's stance. He said, "Our supporters are disappointed in this White House where you have a president who talks so much about voting rights abroad but can't do it two blocks from the White House." Thousands of supporters of D.C.'s right to vote are preparing to march to the Capitol on April 16 in what is being billed as the largest demonstration ever for D.C. voting rights.
Conservatives Form Campaign to Protect Civil Liberties
A coalition of prominent conservative writers and former government officials have launched a new campaign to restore checks and balances and to protect civil liberties. Founding members of the American Freedom Agenda include former Republican Georgia Congressman Bob Barr, who led the effort to impeach President Clinton, David Keene of the American Conservative Union, constitutional scholar Bruce Fein, and the writer and conservative direct mail pioneer Richard Viguerie. They are also calling for Congress to restore habeas corpus, end torture and extraordinary rendition, narrow the president's authority to designate "enemy combatants," prevent unconstitutional domestic spying and protect journalists from prosecution under the Espionage Act.
Six Peace Activists Arrested for Occupying Office of Rep. Welch (D-VT)
In Vermont, six peace activists were arrested on Wednesday after occupying the office of Vermont Congressman Peter Welch. The activists were urging Welch to vote against the House bill authorizing $100 billion more for the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
1,500 Protest in Tokyo Against Iraq War
And in Japan, about 1,500 protesters marched in Tokyo on Wednesday calling for an end to the Iraq War. The protests occurred as U.S. General Peter Pace met with Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Aso.
Edwards to Make Announcement
And in political news, Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards and his wife Elizabeth have scheduled a news conference for today where they are expected to discuss new developments about her health. Elizabeth Edwards underwent treatment for breast cancer after the 2004 campaign. On Tuesday, John Edwards cut short the rest of his schedule in Iowa to be with her.

Items Needed:
Incense stick
Tripod (optional)
A dark room (or it helps to have a dark background)
Incense stick
Tripod (optional)
A dark room (or it helps to have a dark background)
Camera settings for both shots:
Camera Canon EOS 50D
Auto Focus
Shutter 1/250
Aperture f/5.6
Focal Length 55 mm
ISO Speed 200
On-camera flash
Due to the popularity of my Water Droplet tutorial, I thought I might show you how I shoot smoke. Again, this is a tutorial using a DSLR with no additional flash.
Step 1. Have a dark room, or dark background set up. The reason for this is you want the photo to come blacked out with just the smoke highlighted. If you are shooting against a background, be sure to have the camera at least 4ft away so that the flash does not capture the background.
Step 2. Hold the incense stick in front of the camera about 8-10 inches and focus on the tip. It helps if you use a tripod for the camera. Remember the approximate distance the stick is from the lens so you can come back to it.
Step 3. Light your incense stick and then blow it out. It actually helps to let it burn for about 15 seconds to produce the best smoke. Hold the stick at about the distance you originally focused on.
Step 4. Turn the lights off or shoot against your dark backround. Wave the stick around gently to generate different shapes. Blowing softly creates some neat effects. Now shoot!
Step 5 (Optional). Processing! This is completely up to you. For the first photo I only adjusted curves and added gradient. The second photo I adjusted curves, inverted, and then I added a gradient. Both were processed using Gimp.
Note: If you wanted to get a white background instead of black, you would need to play with "levels" and "curves" during processing. You can also use a white background to further assist. It is a bit more advanced to get a white background looking good. So for the purposes of this simple tutorial, I taught you the easier black background way!

June 4, 2010 in Business, Idaho
Idaho unemployment rate posts modest decline
BOISE — The state Department of Labor says the unemployment rate posted a decline for the third month in a row, falling to 9 percent as Idaho employers took on more workers.
Department Senior Analyst Eduardo Silva says the dip was modest, but also shows the unemployment rate has continued on a downward trend after more than two years of increases.
Idaho employers hired nearly 10 percent more workers last month, compared to May 2009.
There were still more than 68,000 Idaho workers without jobs last month.

CEI Today: TSA body scanners, FDA over-regulation, and a court ruling on drug manufacturers
CEI.org: CEI Files Amici Curiae Brief Calling on TSA to Follow the Law
The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) should be compelled to at last give the public an opportunity to comment on the agency's use of full-body scanners in airports, a new brief of amici curiae by the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI) urges. For more than three years, TSA's use of body-scanners has affected millions of Americans, yet passengers still have had no opportunity to formally voice their concerns to the agency.

Real Clear Policy: More FDA Control Does Not Mean More Safety
News outlets are reporting that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cited an alarmingly high number of alleged safety and regulatory violations by supplement manufacturers. This may worry some consumers about the safety of their daily multivitamin. It has also prompted some lawmakers to call, once again, for increasing the FDA's control over the supplement industry. While there is no reason to doubt that the FDA found violations of rules in its investigation, more government regulation would do nothing to improve the safety of America's vitamin supply.
Medical Progress Today: Third Circuit Decision Endorses FTC's Faulty Logic on "Pay for Delay"
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit handed down a decision on Monday holding that reverse payment - or so-called "pay to delay" - patent settlement agreements between innovator and generic drug manufacturers may constitute antitrust violations.
That decision sets up a Circuit split that now seems ripe for Supreme Court review, as the Federal Circuit, Second Circuit, and Eleventh Circuit appeals courts have previously ruled that, in most cases, these settlement agreements are not anticompetitive.

Sounds exciting. I wonder if all this secrecy surrounding his identity will go the distance? If the writers have found the perfect way to keep that hidden until the film's release?
I can't say I believe it's Khan. Not without some bizarre transporter accident or bodyswap nonsense. Benedict's too unlikely a recasting for that an it would be so inconsistent with practically everything that made the last film a success - i.e. actors who weren't much of a stretch from those who originated the characters. Zachary Quinto being brought in as Spock, more or less sprang from fans observing his likeness as not being unlike a young Leonard Nimoy. Then there's Karl Urban nailing DeForest's McCoy... so let's just say, I find it very unlikely without some unusual [insert biotech here] reasoning.
I think Cumberbatch is playing a Eugenics War survivor who joined Starfleet under an assumed identity so he had the resources to track down the
Botany Bay
. I think Carol Marcus and the Peter Weller character are in on it.

As U.S. courts grapple with constitutional challenges to DNA identification applications, judges are resting legal decisions on the fingerprint analogy, questioning whether the information from a DNA profile could, in light of scientific advances, reveal biomedically relevant information. While CODIS loci were selected largely because they lack phenotypic associations, how this criterion was assessed is unclear. To clarify their phenotypic relevance, we describe the standard and recommended CODIS markers within the context of what is known currently about the genome. We characterize the genomic regions and phenotypic associations of the 24 standard and suggested CODIS markers. None of the markers are within exons, although 12 are intragenic. No CODIS genotypes are associated with known phenotypes. This study provides clarification of the genomic significance of the key identification markers and supports—independent of the forensic scientific community—that the CODIS profiles provide identification but not sensitive or biomedically relevant information.

Jamie Oliver Protegee Returns to Her U.K. Roots
April Bloomfield was working at the River Cafe when the TV chef Jamie Oliver recommended her to New York restaurateur Ken Friedman in 2003.
Born in Birmingham, England, Bloomfield moved to the U.S., where she opened the Spotted Pig, the Breslin and the John Dory, with Friedman, gaining kudos and a degree of celebrity for her gutsy cooking. Her focus is on maximum flavor with minimum fuss.
Bloomfield, 38, is back in London. She's marking the U.K. publication of her book "A Girl and Her Pig," featuring recipes from her New York restaurants, with a residence at St. John Chinatown, where she will be cooking tomorrow and Oct. 31. (St. John owner Fergus Henderson cooks with Bloomfield each year in New York.)
How did she feel about returning to the kitchen in the U.K.?
"I'm sure I'm going to be nervous, which is always a good thing," Bloomfield said over breakfast at Quo Vadis, in Soho. "But it's going to be fun sharing meals with some old friends."
Friedman, who formerly worked in the music industry and is friends with stars such as Bono and Jay-Z, will be there. Oliver also has a booking, along with several London chefs, such as Jeremy Lee of Quo Vadis, who said he has two copies of the book.
The two-day residency (two lunches and two dinners) sold out in three hours. Bloomfield shook her head when told of this.
"It was reassuring to know that it sold out so fast," she said. "I thought no one might come." Her menu will feature pig's-ear salad with bitter greens and lemon caper dressing; and Spotted Pig burger with Roquefort and shoestring fries.
Michelin Star
This sort of cooking isn't for everyone. It's gastropub rather than fine dining. You might be forgiven for wondering what all the fuss was about after a long wait for a table at the Spotted Pig. That venue's Michelin star denotes a very good restaurant in its category, not a sublime dining experience.
Bloomfield started at restaurants such as Kensington Place and Bibendum. It was under the guidance of Ruth Rogers and Rose Gray at the River Cafe that she learned the simplicity of food. The book is dedicated to Gray, who died in 2010.
Bloomfield is known for her no-nonsense approach. A char-grilled lamb burger with feta, cumin mayo and thrice-cooked chips is among her best-known dishes. The U.S. cover for her book features a photo of her with a piglet over her shoulder.
She is also capable of subtlety: Her salads and vegetable dishes show a lightness of touch and the same originality as Bloomfield's meatier creations.
Female Chefs
Did she think there was a difference of approach between male and female chefs?
"Women tend to cook from their souls more, whereas men are sometimes more analytical and cerebral," she said. "But there are guys like Mario (Batali), who really cooks from his soul."
What does Bloomfield make of the London restaurant scene and would she consider opening a restaurant in the city?
"I would love to come back and open somewhere: Ken and I talk about it all the time," she said. "I don't know if it would be like the Pig. We're just not sure. I visit London all the time. It's my second home. London is going through a boom now, with lots of new places opening.
"There has been a lot of influence from New York. Soho has a West Village feel, with an undercurrent of grittiness. I like that."
"A Girl and Her Pig" is published by Ecco Press in the U.S. priced $30. It will be published by Canongate in the U.K. on Nov. 1 priced at 14.99 pounds. To buy the book in North America, click here.

Arabesque is another innovative institution by İzzet Çapa, the famous nightlife guru of Istanbul who runs Çapa-Marka Entertainment group. Often referred to as a neo-Lebanese restaurant it turns into a nightclub after dining hours are finished. Located in the fashionable Maçka neighborhood, the colorful venue's external walls are covered with pop-Arabic graffiti and murals by the famous Lebanese artist Yahya Muhakkin. Inside the bright, eclectic furnishings mix with more elegant couch filled lounging areas and Arabian latice-work patterns. There is a large dining area outside from which there are fantastic views of the Bosphorus.
The menu focuses on Middle Eastern fare, with plenty of meze options, few mains, and a variety of desserts. The cuisine borrows heavily from the spices and flavors of the region and the tables are decorated with rose petals. Meanwhile the alcohol flows freely, a live singer wanders among the diners and a fixed menu is available to make life easier for large groups. After dinner, the venue moves into nightclub-mode with live belly dancing performances and colorful shows each night. Later on the DJ plays a mix of music from oriental Arabic to Turkish pop and rap, but always keeping the energy high.
Arabesque offers a unique evening of oriental glitz with a great Bosporus view and the venue is ideal for bachelorette parties and birthday celebrations. Keep in mind that the venue gets quite crowded, even on weeknights, so make sure you make reservations in advance.

I agree. As diverse as RTM is for features this is one that probably should be available for those that desire to use their mobile devices as shopping list utilities. I wouldn't expect RTM to go as far as mapping out which isle the item is in, but for now scanning with the barcode scanner doesn't seem like a bad idea. I know with android it is possible using the open source barcode scanner "ZXing". The Google Authenticator uses this as their barcode scanner. I don't have any suggestion for a similar barcode scanner featured app for the Apple mobile devices. This has my vote.

What your $40 million might get you
If indeed the mayor's supposed plan to build the Nashville Sounds a stadium in Sulphur Dell comes closer to fruition, we'll get an idea of what, exactly, the $40 million stadium will look like.
For now, all we've got is speculation and comparison.
Let's take a look at what's been happening with minor-league parks around the country.
Given its proximity and its growing threat to our Itness, plenty of folks are asking what it would take for Nashville to mimic Memphis' AutoZone Park, considered one of minor-league baseball's best. Unfortunately, the Memphis Redbirds are sui generis, owned by the nonprofit Memphis Redbirds Foundation, which bought the team from a previous owner, which issued massive amount of debt to build the stadium. (Here's a good run down from the Memphis Business Journal.) In any event, AutoZone Park cost more than $80 million to build in 1998 — inflation-adjusted to $107 million. It was built to "major league" specifications and seats more than 14,000 people. It is not really comparable to what could happen here.
Nor should Nashville look to Columbus, Ohio, where the Clippers play in 2009's Ballpark of the Year, Huntington Park, a $70 million project that seats more than 10,000. Similarly, Birmingham's new Regions Field came in with a $64 million price tag.
In fact, in the last decade or so most every ballpark built in the $40 million range has been at the AA level.
One exception is from a fellow PCL team. The Omaha Storm Chasers' Werner Park, which opened in 2011, was built for $36 million ($36.7 million in 2013 dollars):
The park seats more than 9,000 — though 3,000 of that is on a grass berm in the outfield. The beyond-the-fences area also includes a carousel, basketball court and whiffleball fields. Native Nebraska limestone chunks serve as benches on the concourse and as amphitheater seating in the outfield. The two-story suite section is decked in glass and wood-paneling.
Down in AA, The Baseball Grounds of Jacksonville, home to the Southern League's Suns, opened in 2003 with a $34 million price tag, $42 million in today's dollars:
The park is the largest in AA, seating 6,000 in stadium seats with space for roughly 5,000 more on berm seating (near the lower right hand side of the photo above) and in bleachers. Built around a desanctified 115-year-old church, the park is decked out in brick, tucked between the city's football stadium and its arena. The stands are almost completely roofed (which, as anyone who visits Florida's First Coast can attest, is a must because of the area's propensity for pop-up storms) and if you look closely at the center field fence (a whopping 420 feet from home, by the way) you can see that a section of it is chain-linked for a field-level view of the action).
Over in the Texas League, the Arkansas Travelers play at the $40.4 million ($44.7 million in today's dollars) Dickey-Stephens Park in North Little Rock:
Sitting at the foot of a bridge and offering cross-river views of downtown Little Rock, the park seats nearly 5,300 with room for 2,500 more on the outfield berms. (Sense a theme?) North Little Rock was a railroad town and the design of Dickey-Stephens emphasizes that, as noted by BaseballParks.com, which named the park its best in its debut year of 2007. It also has an old-style organ, right on the concourse!
Finally, there's ONEOK Field in Tulsa. The Drillers began play at the $39.2 million ($41.3 million infaltion-adjusted) stadium in 2010. Designed by Populous, the sports-architecture giants that did Nashville's ballpark location study, it is tucked into Tulsa's urban center. Previously, the Drillers played near the city's fairgrounds.
Sitting in the city's Greenwood District, ONEOK mimics the art-deco architecture of its neighborhood, a historically African-American center of commerce that was also the location of the eponymous Greenwood Riots, one of the worst race riots it American history. It seats 7,833 and is part of a broader development plan for the area, which totals roughly $60 million all told. The park includes several higher-end restaurants, a playground, lots of grass seating and some of the closest-to-the-action seating in minor-league baseball. Unusually, a lot of the metal used isn't the typical steel, but zinc. Also, the ballpark had an usual (and frankly, controversial) financing plan. From BaseballParks:
Like most cities, Tulsa didn't have a lot of extra money, so an unusual arrangement was devised to pay for the $60 million project. $30 million would come from private donations (that were solicited based on the premise that the the park would spur economic development downtown), $5 million from the Drillers' lease and the remainder from a very controversial assessment fee imposed on downtown property owners. Those business owners were none too pleased with these new fees, which the city insisted wasn't a tax. Helping to ease the situation during the tough economic times of recent years, a $25 million revenue bond was acquired from the Tulsa Stadium Trust, which was set up to own and operate the ballpark, by the Tulsa Community Foundation. This bond will be repaid as downtown businesses pay the annual assessments over time.
Given the trends and the cost, we can expect a 7,000- to 8,000-seat stadium (the Populous study, in its 204-page glory, can be found here and projected 8,400 seats), with perhaps extra room on the berms. That could be close to the 11,000 projected for the proposed "First Tennessee Field" at the Thermal Plant site. It'd be easy to compare Nashville's situation with Tulsa — moving from an aging mammoth to a cozier confine closer to the city — and its not a bad place to look. Don't hold your breath for $30 million in "private donations," though the talking points in the last 18 hours or so have been that the Sounds will foot a "significant" portion of the stadium price tag.
A caveat on costs: the cost of the Music City Center dropped because labor and materials were cheaper as the project was built in a down economy. That's unusual enough to be noteworthy, as large civic projects almost never come in cheaper or, frankly, even near projections. As the economy has improved, labor costs and material costs will go up. Even if projected at $40 million, the final price could prove much higher indeed.

Most likley the blower motor. Can you test for power or where it drops off? Switch is a possiblity, but long shot.
Thanks for the reply, I did test the blower motor directly to battery and it came on. Any ideas?

Re: Cod ghosts camoindy56 Nov 1, 2013 1:44 PM (in response to xDaLe96x)
I pre ordered Ghosts,Hardened Edition ages ago from Amazon, never received any new camo to use on Blops,
Re: Cod ghosts camostarbuckfrack Nov 3, 2013 12:30 AM (in response to indy56)
Now this is assuming that Amazon had the special, because I also did not get a camo code. Why because they didnt offer one to my knowledge. I preordered it first day so any specials that come along in the meantime I would get them. Now this could be a code they let you get AFTER your order ships but they arent that stupid. I just remeber ever seeing any indication that they offered the Ghosts Camo Code. This was specific places like Gamestop if you were a rewards member. Things like that.
If they DID you could easily find the code in your digital locker. Every code you should have ever got in your purchase history would be there. Now as I mentioned if you didnt get an email for one or its not in your digital locker then they never had it.
I think now they call it your Games and Software Library. For example, my year long Xbox Live code I bought 2 years ago is still in there.
Check there.
Re: Cod ghosts camostarbuckfrack Nov 3, 2013 12:45 AM (in response to starbuckfrack)
OK I checked out the history on it. Only two places that offered the Camo Code were Gamestop and a company in UK called Game. That was about a month ago. No one else offered it that I know of.

But a Wildcat serve went long and, at 24-24, B'ville reclaimed the serve. It proceeded to win the next two points, take the game 26-24, and seize permanent momentum in the match.
They were tied, 11-11, in the second game before the Bees used a 9-2 run to seize control, eventually accounting for a 25-17 victory. And a 9-1 run early in the third game sent the Bees to a decisive 25-18 margin that completed the sweep.
Galvin was just one small part of a deep, balanced front line. Lauren McVey led it, with 12 kills to go with three aces, while Sandra Shibley delivered eight kills. Alexis Pateras joined Galvin with seven kills as Jenna Blujus added six kills.
In defeat, the Wildcats had Morgan McDermott earn 11 kills and Katie Griffin get seven kills, while Carly Graham (15 assists) and Chelsea Sedlacek (nine assists) worked on the back line.
With little time to rest and savor this latest championship, the Bees go to the Albany area on Saturday for the Class AA state regional playoffs.

Deputies investigate burned boat
Published: Wednesday, November 7, 2001 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, November 6, 2001 at 11:00 p.m.
Police are asking for the public's help in solving the mystery of a boat found burning in a wooded area near Bull Run Road Monday night.
A passing motorist reported the fire, which was located in the woods about one-third of a mile past the 600 block of Bull Run Road, said Terrebonne Parish Sheriff Jerry Larpenter.
Schriever volunteer firefighters put out the flames, which destroyed most of the white fiberglass boat's hull, he said.
Investigators compiled a description of the burned vessel in the hopes that a passerby might have seen something that would provide them with a clue as to who set fire to the boat or to help nail down the identity of the boat's owner.
Larpenter said he's not sure if the boat was stolen and later destroyed or if the owner was trying to dispose of his own property.
The boat was almost completely destroyed, but Larpenter said it appears to be about 18- to 20-feet long with a deep V-shaped hull. It's not clear whether it was an inboard-outboard or an outboard, but police said it's definitely not an inboard.
The boat has horizontal waterline markings. The top line is a brown 1/4-inch wide stripe and the bottom one is a black 1-inch band.
The boat didn't have a motor and the brand name and serial number were destroyed in the fire.
Anyone with information about the fire or the boat itself is asked to contact the Terrebonne Parish Sheriff's Office at 876-2500.

Celiac crisis, a rare complication of celiac disease, can cause debilitating health problems and increase the risk of death, a new study cautions. Researchers reviewed cases of apparent celiac crisis, in which patients presented severe gastrointestinal symptoms and signs of dehydration or malabsorption. Among the patients, 33 percent exhibited total villous atrophy according to biopsy analyses, and all required hospitalization and intravenous fluids. All eventually responded to a gluten-free diet, the study noted.
Researchers concluded that patients presenting with severe diarrhea and malabsorption should be tested for celiac disease; treatment with steroids and/or nutritional support should be considered, with gluten avoidance advised for long-term recovery.
The article was published in the July issue of Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology.

All over the country people are sitting at their desks dreaming of summer holidays and fishing trips. The reality of such trips fades into the background of memory ('where's the bottle opener?' 'who forgot to put the bung in?' and 'we've run out of insect repellent') and only the good memories remain (monster fish that got away, glorious blue skies and the incredible sense of renewal that comes from being on the water.) Whitworths summer catalogue comes out soon and it contains everything you need to make this year's summer fishing trip a perfect memory.
COVER 2007 Summer
'Our catalogue will come out in about the second week of November' said Whitworths Marketing Manager Brendan Strahan.
'That's our summer catalogue which will take us all the way through to March. It will include a number of specials which will really capture peoples' interest because they're such good value. There's a full range from clothing and boat shoes, to watertoys and electronics; there is always something from all our categories in the specials.'
Brendan mentioned that the Magma BBQs are one item that has been heavily discounted.
'There's some good deals with Magma BBQs. We've got a new range of Magma BBQs and some of the older styles have been replaced and they're going out very, very cheap.'
Customers can request a hard copy of the catalogue sent to their address by visiting the Whitworths website http://www.whitworths.com.au
magma 3032 lg
'You can order a catalogue online, you can download a complete PDF, you can download pages or you can view the catalogue online. Some people like to be able to look at it on screen; some people like to get a copy so they can read it in bed.'
Brendan joked that they had even received feedback from a customer who said that he liked the hard copy catalogue because he reads it in the toilet!
While you're online you can browse Whitworths extensive mail order stock and perhaps consider purchasing one of their popular gift certificates for a friend or family member. A tried and true favourite, a gift certificate is the perfect Christmas gift when you don't know what the person wants.
'The best present is the Whitworth's gift certificate because they can come into the shop and choose whatever they like.'
'We've got a lot of little things that make camping or fishing trips more comfortable. Like a stainless steel fold up toaster: we've got about three different types in stock. There's one that is non folding which actually does do better toast, but I'm getting into the nitty gritty there….'
'Things like cup holders and 12V hairdryers are always very popular. Fishing knives, stainless steel tools and multi tools: we've always got some of those at really great prices and they're great for fishing trips and the summer holidays.'
If you're going to spend the Christmas break working on your boat then Whitworths is bound to have the products you need to complete the job. They offer a wide range of deck and hull hardware, pumps and plumbing equipment, paints, fibreglass and rigging.
If you're not conducting a major overhaul but want to update your boat's navigation gear and electronics then their website is certainly worth a look. All the major brands are represented and Whitworths has some of the latest products at very reasonable prices. Why traipse all over town when you can compare prices with just a few mouse clicks?
Strahan commented that in the lead up to Christmas sales of safety equipment tended to increase as people prepare to take their friends and families out on the water. There are MOB systems, flares, PFDs, gas detectors and first aid kits. There are even essential tools such as wire and bolt cutters that a good skipper should always carry onboard a sailing vessel but which often get overlooked (we hope you never have to use them but they may be of assistance during a dismasting.)
The Whitworths website is constantly updated with specials and clearance items. At the moment they have knocked $15 off the cost of an oscillating cabin fan 12V: now just $24.95 - perfect for keeping cool on those hot summer days. You can also keep your drinks handy with some half price folding drink holders: at just $3.95. Blow-dry your hair onboard with a 12V compact hair dryer: half price at $9.95.
For the fisherman there are some great half-price specials: stainless steel fishing multi tool with pouch (just $12.40) and fishing knife (only $9.90). Treat yourself with Gill 'Classic Black' Polarized sunglasses at $25 off: now just $49.90! It's the little details that make all the difference to a good day on the water.
Bargain hunters will appreciate the 'clearance items' section of the website. Here you can find limited numbers of stock at truly crazy prices. A search today showed a Humminbird 931C fishfinder reduced from the RRP of $2,499 to just $1499: that's a saving of over $1000! The unit features ultra wide colour screen and a dual frequency transducer. It would make a great Christmas present for the serious fishermen.
The company has 14 supermarket style stores nationwide; with five stores in NSW and Queensland, two in WA, and one in Victoria and SA.
Visit Whitworth's website to find a store nearest you and to check out their mail order stock. http://www.whitworths.com.au

KING. Let all but Huncamunca leave the room.
Exeunt CLEORA and MUSTACHA.
Daughter, I have observed of late some grief
Unusual in your countenance -- your eyes
57That, like two open windows, used to show
The lovely beauty of the rooms within, 5 Have now two blinds before them. -- What is the cause?
Say, have you not enough of meat and drink?
We've giv'n strict orders not to have you stinted.
HUNC. Alas! my lord, I value not myself
That once I eat two fowls and half a pig; 1058Small is that praise! but oh! a maid may want
What she can neither eat nor drink.
KING. What's that?
HUNC. O59 spare my blushes; but I mean a hus-
KING. If that be all, I have provided one,
A husband great in arms, whose warlike sword 15 Streams with the yellow blood of slaughtered giants,
Whose name in Terra Incognita is known,
Whose valor, wisdom, virtue make a noise
Great as the kettle-drums of twenty armies.
HUNC. Whom does my royal father mean?
KING. Tom Thumb. 20
HUNC. Is it possible?
KING. Ha! the window-blinds are gone;
60A country-dance of joy is in your face;
Your eyes spit fire, your cheeks grow red as beef.
HUNC. Oh, there's a magic-music in that sound,
Enough to turn me into beef indeed! 25 Yes, I will own, since licensed by your word, I'll own Tom Thumb the cause of all my grief.
For him I've sighed, I've wept, I've gnawed my
KING. Oh! thou shalt gnaw thy tender sheets no
A husband thou shalt have to mumble now. 30
HUNC. Oh! happy sound! henceforth let no one
That Huncamunca shall lead apes in hell.*
Oh! I am overjoyed!
KING. I see thou art.
61Joy lightens in thy eyes, and thunders from thy
Transports, like lightning, dart along thy soul, 35 As small-shot through a hedge.
HUNC. Oh! say not small.
KING. This happy news shall on our tongue ride
Ourself we bear the happy news to Thumb.
Yet think not, daughter, that your powerful charms
Must still detain the hero from his arms; 40 Various his duty, various his delight; Now is his turn to kiss, and now to fight;
And now to kiss again. So, mighty 62 Jove,
When with excessive thund'ring tired above,
Comes down to earth, and takes a bit -- and then 45 Flies to his trade of thund'ring back again.
63GRIZ. Oh! Huncamunca, Huncamunca, oh!____________________
Dost thou not view joy peeping from my eyes,

Oh! Narva, Narva, oh!
