Monday News, December 24
Hinton House Fire
(Hinton) -- Both the Hinton and the Merrill Fire Departments responded to a house fire Saturday morning. That fire, located at 32278 Indigo Road is believed to have started from a wood burning stove. Fire crews arrived at the scene at about 6:45 a.m. and were on the scene of that house fire for nearly six hours. Hinton Fire Chief Chad Beck describes the scene upon arrival.
Listen to
Beck says the house was totally destroyed. There were no injuries as a result of that fire. Later in the day, the Hinton Fire Department had to return to the same address as embers had rekindled. Officials were on the scene a second time for about an hour.
Hog Confinement Fire
ROCK VALLEY, Iowa (AP) - Authorities say several hundred pigs have been killed by a fire at a feeding operation in northwest Iowa.
The fire was reported around 9:50 p.m. on Saturday at a confinement facility four miles southeast of Rock Valley. Firefighters reported the hog confinement building was fully engulfed in flames when they arrived. About 650 30-pound pigs were killed.
The cause of the fire is being investigated.
Authorities also are investigating the deaths of an estimated 475 hogs at a confinement facility five miles south of Rock Valley. The Sioux County Sheriff's Office says someone entered the building
and tampered with the climate control system between 3 p.m. Tuesday and 1 p.m. Wednesday.
The hogs weighed about 280 pounds each.
Council Bluffs Fire Leaves 90 Year Old Man In Hospital
COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) - A 90-year-old man is in intensive care after an early-morning fire at his Council Bluffs home.
KETV-TV in Omaha reports (http://bit.ly/UnF1FN ) that the fire began around 2:30 a.m. Sunday. Investigators say a smoke detector saved the lives of the elderly man and his daughter.
Fire crews found the man in his bedroom. The fire had not spread to that part of the house, but the man suffered critical third-degree burns and smoke inhalation.
Investigators say the man's daughter, also living in the home, told firefighters that she tried to reach her father but couldn't because the staircase was on fire. She called 911 and crawled out a
basement window.
Tax Assessment Appeals Costs Schools and Cities
WATERLOO, Iowa (AP) - Cities and school districts in Black Hawk County may face local tax revenue shortages because so many businesses are winning appeals of their property tax assessments.
The Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier reports that some government entities may even have to refund portions of some taxes paid before the higher assessments could be successfully appealed.
Appeals have been filed on 380 parcels after a countywide reappraisal boosted many 2011 values.
So far, 119 property owners have won or settled those appeals for a combined $25.7 million reduction in value. The county has won 50 cases to sustain the assessments.
If tax collections don't meet budgeted expectations, the cities, school districts and other tax-supported agencies will have to cut spending or tap their cash reserves.
Towing Companies Busy After Snow Storm
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Towing companies are starting to remove cars and trucks that were abandoned after last week's blizzard swept through Iowa.
KCCI-TV in Des Moines reports that towing companies were busy this weekend. Towing bans imposed on Interstates 35 and 80 were lifted on Saturday, which allows crews to retrieve vehicles that
went off the road.
Tom Kirkvold, a spokesman for Hannifen Company, says his company has fielded hundreds of calls for service.
Kirkvold says the storm is one of the worst he's seen in years. He says last week's heavy snow seems to have caught many drivers off-guard.
Officials say car and truck owners are required to have their vehicles towed within 24 hours after a towing ban is lifted.
Iowa's Concealed Weapon Permits Rise
CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa (AP) - The number of Iowans with permits to carry concealed weapons increased dramatically in 2012, the second year of relaxed laws that govern how they're issued.
The Gazette in Cedar Rapids reports that sheriffs in Iowa's 99 counties issued more than 37,000 permits in the first 11 months of the year.
Nearly 103,000 were issued in 2011, the first year after Iowa went from a "may issue" to a "shall issue" state.
State data show that 1.3 percent of Iowans had permits at the end of 2010, before the law changed. The percentage increased to 3.3 percent at the end of last year, and stood at 4.6 percent
through the first 11 months of this year.
U of I Not Complying With Open Records Law
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - A seemingly mundane issue has put University of Iowa President Sally Mason on the defensive: the interpretation of Iowa's public records law.
The university has routinely refused to release records related to employee and student controversies by citing exemptions in the law. The practice appears to have recently backfired, bringing
criticism from Gov. Terry Branstad about a lack of transparency and forcing Mason to address speculation that she could be facing pressure to resign.
Mason says she cannot release personnel records of students or employees without violating the law. She says she'll stick with her legal interpretation to protect privacy.
Bill Monroe, Branstad's government transparency adviser, says he's concerned about the legal advice Mason is receiving. He and others argue the law gives agencies the discretion to release

(Submission #5)
Since the events of September 11, 2001, governments around the world have adopted, augmented, and/or modified substantially policies, laws, and practices regarding access to and availability of government information. In the name of national and international security, anti-terrorism, and other reasons, governments have engaged in a range of initiatives that include website scrubbing, removal of materials from libraries and other government information access points, the continued classification of documents, clandestine eavesdropping, and others. These efforts, ostensibly to protect the global community, also serve to restrict the flow and availability of government information on a range of significant topics such as environmental and infrastructure information, government programs information, government resources, and others.
This panel discusses the impacts, implications, and issues associated with current practices, policies, and legislation on access to and dissemination of government information. The intent of the session is to not only identify key issues related to open government with an international perspective but to also suggest possible information policy initiatives to balance the needs for open government versus security.
The session is co-sponsored by SIG-III and SIG-IFP.

Closings Delayed For Airport Towers
Ohio County facility had been scheduled for April 22 shutdown
April 6, 2013
WHEELING — Tom Tominack was relieved to get a call from Sen....
Why are owners of MILLION DOLLAR airplanes and jets landing for FREE?
Why doesn't Wheeling Ohio County Airport admin which is managed by the County Commissioners charge a LANDING FEE?
If it does you can't find it anywhere?
Why do many airports such as Charleston charge a landing fee such as $26-$130?
If Wheeling Ohio County airport charged this fee they would have over $1 MILLION DOLLARS EXTRA - above their current $950,000 budget.
Then Joe and Jane Taxpayer wouldn't be paying for this.
Tax the pilots, not the taxpayers.

@melvin: W-OC airport couldn't survive on landing fees. What is counted as landings there are actually touch and go's done as practice by AFANG. This is an example of the governments inability to cut spending. W-OC airport has been closed for twenty years but no one shut out the lights.

The airport admin said they had 38,000 landings and take-offs last year. If they are mostly touch and gos by AFANG then they don't need a tower.
Asking for the taxpayer to pay for a tower that isn't needed is irresponsible management.
But I guess we all knew that didn't we, while our taxes go up.

From Business Insider, "The gist is that Boehner originally came to an agreement with Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on a plan, and that this plan was scrapped for the eventual Budget Control Act which contained the sequestration clause. Essentially, the 2 percent that Boehner didn't want was the sequestration: Yes, the bipartisan Budget Control Act as originally conceived by Speaker Boehner, Senator Reid, and Senator McConnell did not include the sequester. The one change to the original deal was the inclusion of this trigger mechanism – so that the President would not have to deal with the debt limit again before his re-election campaign. It was only at the White House's insistence that we now have what is popularly known as the Obamaquester. It's a fact."

TV programmers aim at the lowest possible audience to insure their popularity. I would say that American politics follows that path and of course flim flams us on television just like car salesman. I lived in the era of dummied down TV politics. Obama's "rich guy rant" is precious and aimed at making people hate each other,as are most of his policies. Every time he gets in a jam over stealing our kid's futures, the first reaction is to threaten the old folks and SS. We just danced to the air traffic dance didn't we and as it turns out it didn't happen, but we danced and ranted like monkeys. Obama's agenda seem not care much for America, but within the last 6 weeks he gave a billion dollars to Libya and Egypt..but seniors? Naw. I am a lifelong Dem and can say we may never recover from the things that Obama is doing on the economy and immigration. He seems not interested in America much other than looting it.

"By Thomas Frank, USA TODAY WASHINGTON — Airports have spent $3.5 billion in federal money since 1998 on projects the Federal Aviation Administration rated as low priority because they do little to improve the most pressing needs in the nation's aviation system, a USA TODAY analysis shows." "But the program also has funded terminals at little-used airports, hangars to store private jets, and parking areas that are free to customers, according to the analysis of FAA records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. Other findings:
•The amount of money spent on low-priority projects hit a record $507 million in the fiscal year that ended Sept. 30. That's nearly five times the amount in 1998, when the FAA established a new ranking system for airport projects."

@wwuthinking: In the loosest terms possible are either Libya or Egypt allies of the United States. The entire Middle East, thanks to Obama's incoherent foreign policy, is being overrun with Islamic terrorist with financing coming from Saudi Arabia. They are our allies when it comes to taking arms and money, but when the sand hits the fan, they will be as reliable as a flat tire in the trunk of the car.

I am 34 weeks pregnant with my third child -- but my first experience with a med free birth and wondering what some mothers in Dallas are doing or have done here. I am planning to have her at Medical City Dallas.
Views: 313
Hi Marina,
I'm actually located in San Francisco but wanted to send you my blog with images to help you visualize birth in these last weeks of your pregnancy. I earn no money from my website and everything is free: http://visualizingbirth.org/
Here's method on how to visualize: http://visualizingbirth.org/pages/introduction
Here's my background and birth stories: http://visualizingbirth.org/pages/about
Best wishes,
Awesome! Thank you, I will check it out!
Hi! I'm near Dallas and just had a homebirth 2 months ago. I decided to go natural (at home with a midwife) thanks to watching The Business of Being Born while I was 12 weeks pregnant. That was quite a change from my previous 2 births in a hospital with epidurals. This one was amazing and I wrote about it on my blog: http://faithandfrugality.blogspot.com/2011/11/my-homebirth.html Let me know if you have any other questions!
Hi Kama,
Thank you for your story -- loved your blog. Since (long story here) you can't purchase maternity insurance in Texas if you are self-employed and self insured (Thanks RICK PERRY! -- ok off political soap box now)
I have to pay cash for all my OB care, tests, etc etc. I have already pre paid hospital, so I am set to go there and feel comfortable there -- but def want a med free birth!
My previous two were in hospital two and actually very quick, nice births -- although had epidural, no pit. But think I can do a med free birth and want to this time! Def want to go med free bc of this movie!
I understand about the insurance. We were in the same boat with no maternity coverage with our insurance. My sister-in-law tried to go natural at Allen Presby, but they convinced her she needed her rest and to get it she needed an epidural. Same thing happened to a few other friends. I hope that you have a better group than she does. I kept thinking that if I had gone into serious labor in the middle of the night, I wouldn't have been able to take something to "get a little rest" but would have had to powered through it... Have you considered a Doula to help you get through it all? I wouldn't have made it here at home without my midwife and her assistant! Anyway, I hope it goes well for you and is a good experience!
My first two were at Presby Dallas and on the first, my water broke at 3:30am -- went to hospital at 5:30am bc my contractions were strong and regular. I was 1cm and 100% effaced - they told me I could do what I wanted and if I wanted epi, let them know. About 8am, I decided I wanted epi, they gave to me, said they would check in 2 hours. After 2 hours I was at a 10, and delivered him 20 minutes later.
The second, my water broke at 11:45p, got to hospital at 1:30a with strong contractions and I was already 4cm. I thought it hurt and asked for epi, but lady took a long time -- had to give me iv fluid. Finally got epi around 2:45am and one hour later I could suddenly feel everything, I complained that it wore off and I need to go to the bathroom to have a BM, she told me no bc I was hooked up to epi, I insisted and she came to check and said it was not a BM but baby's head -- so quickly they called for a doc, and finally a resident walking by came in and out she came!
So that birth was 4 hours from water break to baby and only had epi for 1 of them.
My rationale is that usually babies come faster and if I only had an epi for 1 hour, then certainly I can manage a quick labor med free using some great visualization techniques.
So I never had anyone pressure me to do anything or get meds - I was the one that asked for the epi both times.
My doctor and the nurses at Medical City seem really cool that plan to honor my request of no pain meds unless I request and that I would like to have a med free birth.
This is of course assuming all goes well and smooth as it did the other two times, but I have no reason to think it won't.
As far as doula...my husband is going to be my birth partner. He is reading the bradley book now and going to do the hypnobirthing stuff with me as well. So am I crazy to think that's good enough?
My husband also read the Bradley book and I read about 5 books. I think if he knows what you want (and why you want it that way) as well as the others, maybe they will encourage you to do it natural when you get in there and it hurts! :) I kept telling myself that I had no other options (obviously), so drugs really didn't come into play. If you keep reminding yourself that (and that millions of other women throughout history have done it before you), you can make it! It's a lot of work, but it's definitely worth it! Sounds like you've pretty much already done it once anyway!!! :)

One And OnlyWritten by on August 16, 2012
Back in 1969, a young street racer attended the NHRA Winternationals in Pomona and watched Jim Baker win the Super Stock Eliminator in his Bill Thomas–equipped '69 SS/EA Camaro. The excitement and passion birthed that day in the young spectator's mind compelled him to visit Bill Thomas Race Cars in Anaheim with the intent of having Thomas build a performance car that was more potent than the generic big-block cars available at the local Chevrolet dealers. In plain language, if anyone could build a big-block car that would rule the street-racing scene in California, it was Bill Thomas. Street racing is stupid, but it was a stark reality of the muscle car world in 1969.
Thomas began his career as an engineer with Chevrolet in 1957. He quickly established Bill Thomas Race Cars as an unofficial R&D arm of Chevrolet's racing endeavors. Thomas created the legendary road racing Cheetah in 1964 to do battle with the Cobras, though the car was not successful in unseating the Cobra's dominance. All the while, Thomas developed parts for drag racers and high-performance street-car enthusiasts. Muscle car history would be made in 1966 when Thomas forged an alliance with Nickey Chevrolet to upgrade the new-for-'67 Camaro with a 427 engine. Other Chevrolet dealers like Yenko, Baldwin, Berger, and Dana would eventually follow suit with their own versions of 427 Camaros, Corvettes, Novas, and Chevelles.
Even though Bill Thomas Race Cars was not a Chevrolet dealer, Thomas had enough contacts to procure any new vehicle a customer desired. Young Captain Street Racer chose a brand-new Cortez Silver, L78 396/375hp Nova SS as the starting point for his build. Led by Thomas's team and mechanic Dave Cox, the 396 short-block was yanked in favor of a 427 replacement fitted with a BT550 cam, a Holley 3916 three-barrel carburetor, a Lakewood housing, headers, and a traction kit. Though details of its early years are a bit unclear, rest assured that the Nova made its presence known on the streets of Southern California. As far as collectors and the people involved in the creation of this car know, this is the only Bill Thomas '69 427 Nova SS.
In 1979, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective), the car was stolen. I didn't do it. When the car was eventually recovered, it was put on blocks for 24 years. Sometime around 2003, word circulated about a big-block Nova available for purchase. Concurrently Dave Cox, who performed the original conversion of the car for Thomas, was looking for a cool car for a father-son project. Dave learned about the Nova, went to look at it, and determined that it was the same Nova he built at Thomas's race shop in 1969. Still a hardcore hot rodder, Dave purchased the Nova and gave it an up-to-date Bill Thomas–style conversion. Set on creating a contemporary street fighter, Dave and son installed a 540ci Merlin big-block motor with a Richmond five-speed transmission and had the car painted to taste.
In 2009, Dave sold the car to Dean Klein, a car collector from Minnesota who had essentially stumbled upon it. Dean determined that the car was too significant to be left as purchased. After comparing notes with Bill Thomas III and Dave, Dean had Bob Adams, owner of MuscleCar Designs in Joliet, Illinois, restore this special SS Nova to its period-correct Bill Thomas–born splendor. The performance upgrades that had been performed in 1969 were painstakingly duplicated, including the BT550 cam and Holley three-barrel carburetor.
This particular Nova is not only art on four wheels but an education in day-two modifications, the kind that were performed not only in home garages in the late '60s but more importantly by some of the biggest names in racing. Performance was the name of the game. As stout as these cars were from the factory, very few true gearheads left them alone. Some went so far as to find the best minds in the business to create a very special animal that would vie for King of the Streets. Bill Thomas was a prominent figure in that era, and his history lives on in the careful restorations of cars like this Nova SS.
At a Glance
1969 Bill Thomas Nova SS 427
Owned by: Dean Klein, Eagan, MN
Restored by: MuscleCar Designs, Joliet, IL
Engine: 427ci V-8 (modified by Bill Thomas)

Rearend: GM 12-bolt with 4.10 gears and Positraction
Interior: Bench seat
Wheels: 15x6 front, 15x8 rear Keystone Klassic
Tires: 7.75x15 Goodyear Nylon Cord front, 8.20x15 Marsh's Racing Tires rear
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
On the East Coast, the rule for wheels was Cragar S/S for GM and Ford products and Keystone for Mopars. However, the Keystones on this car look great, especially accented by the redline skinnies up front and the Marsh's Racing Tire cheater slicks out back.Cortez Silver might have been selected to create a stealth personality for this car, which certainly ruled the streets back in 1969.Converted by Bill Thomas Race Cars when it was brand-new, the Nova started life as an L78 396/375hp car.The stunning restoration was performed by Bob Adams at MuscleCar Designs in Joliet, Illinois. Adams is the Chicagoland day-two expert and has a wealth of knowledge on muscle cars and the culture of aftermarket modifications from back in the day.Admittedly, the three-barrel Holley was somewhat of a bust and proved to be less than ideal for any type of street duty. However, Dean insisted on installing one on the Nova to bring it back to day-two 1969 specs.The basic bench-seat Nova interior sports a Sun tach, Stewart-Warner gauges, and a Hurst shifter for controlling the M21 Muncie four-speed. The Sun tach is installed exactly as it was in the day, on the steering column with a large screw-type radiator hose clamp.Dean Klein and MuscleCar Designs worked to re-create the 427 motor to the exact specs as delivered from Bill Thomas Racing Cars. The decal on the valve cover is genuine and correct, and it hides the valvetrain that is actuated by the same model cam, the BT550, that was installed in the 427 in 1969.One of the great aspects of this restoration was the research that went into the finer details of the Thomas signature modifications. Thomas painted his motors that reddish orange color, insanely complemented by the powder blue headers. But back in the day, crazy colors in the engine compartment were groovy.

Clayton, MO (KSDK) - A Ferguson man will spend the next seven years behind bars after pleading guilty to a pair of burglaries in a University City neighborhood.
37 year old Damon Petty admitted his guilty to the crimes before Judge David Lee Vincent in St. Louis County Circuit Court this week and was immediately sentenced to concurrent seven year terms.
Petty was arrested last year after being caught red-handed frying bacon inside the kitchen of a woman who returned home and walked in on the bandit.
Police were called by the woman after she and a friend detained Petty until investigators arrived.
Authorities say they also found property taken from the victim in the suspects pockets after he was taken into custody. Police later identified Petty as the culprit in a second burglary in the same University City neighborhood.

Rhythm guitar help
I was hoping for some advice please.
Ive been playing for a reasonable while, 3 + years. Ive figured though that despite the fact that I understand and can use basic scales and know how to improvise (albeit not all that well), Ive never properly learned a full song.
I decided to go back to the roots and learn some songs on my acoustic. I dont have an electric at my disposal at the moment. Ive come to realise whilst learning songs which revolve around basic chord patterns/progressions (eg. you and me by Lifehouse, nothing at all by Ronan Keating, Wonderwall by Oasis) my work, albeit not wrong, sounds sloppy and not tight. I listen to the way people play some of these songs on youtube and I can imitate them without a great deal of difficulty but my playing just doesnt sound as nice.
Muting whilst changing chords is something I find to be an issue (or at least fully drown out the chord that was just finished), for instance, I found this problem whilst learning a horse with no name by America.
My strumming I feel sounds particularly ordinary with open chords, its not that I cant play these songs but that they just dont sound with as much feeling and tightness as I would like (as Im sure you can gather, I really strive for perfection).
My strumming in general though feels a bit haphazard and not smooth and clean sounding. I thought using a thinner pick may help and it has a bit but I suspect that this has something to do with my technique or bad habits ive picked up (I am predominantly self taught).
My apologies for this very extensive post. This isnt really the easiest thing to explain or even understand but I would really appreciate any advice people could give me on how I could improve.

Might I be a dick and suggest you get a guitar teacher, even for a few lessons, to examine your technique?

Built for a large family of Calico Critters, this navy blue seven seater has an open air top, doors that open on either side, a door to the trunk and wheels that really roll. It has two seats up front, two full benches and car seats that fit over the benches for the littlest passengers. Of course, the passengers are not included. Don't be deceived, they show critters on the box. But if your kids collect these cute little families, this will be a welcome prop for pretend play. 3 & up.

Hexbugs are fun all on their own, but we really love this new system with see-thru tubes. The little robotic vibrating bugs now make their way up and down the chutes and then free fall into the black hole - only to re-emerge on the base of the set and begin the trek again. We combined the Black Hole set (with 58 pieces and two nanos) with the Infinity Loop and the Watch Tower. Putting these sets together will require some parental assistance. What we really love about this set is that involves some building and then the play begins. Everyone who plays with this toy starts talking about what may happen next and where the bugs may go. You can change the set around so it's not static - there are also gates that can be moved to change the direction of the bugs. Occasionally the bugs did get jammed in one of the chutes - usually a little shake will move them. Sometimes we had to open the chute to unclog - but that's part of the fun.

Our brother/ sister tester team really loved all the details in this super elaborate supermarket. They spent hours putting the merchandise on display and then hours more playing pretend games. It comes with over 100 pieces including fruits, vegetables, bread, fish, canned food, drinks, cookies, ice cream, shopping cart, check-out counter with cash register, display stands, and more. However, like other sets in this collection, it does not come with critters, though they are shown on the packaging. So, be sure to add some critters for their dramatic play. Marked 3 & up, but we think older children will appreciate all the tiny pieces even more. Our testers were 6 & 8 and not too old for these settings.

One of new series of articulated wooden animals that are perfect for block settings or pretend play. The four animals featured in the Australia set are a kangaroo with baby in her pouch, a koala, wombat and emu. The set comes with cardboard habitat that they can be displayed on. The back of the display has factoids about the habitat and each of the creatures. These are handsome little figures that are smooth to the touch and articulated so that they can stand, sit, or lie down. Even their heads can be moved to look down or upward. The emu with it's long neck is wonderfully articulated, though not always steady on its feet. A nice blend of pretend and science. 3 & up. The company has signed a verification form complying with our safety requirements. We did not independently test this toy in a lab.

The protein wisdom interview: Ted Kennedy
A Democrat from Massachusetts, Edward Moore Kennedy was first elected to the United States Senate in 1962 to finish the term of his brother, John F. Kennedy, who had become president in 1961. "Teddy" was reelected in 1964 and then again for six additional terms, most recently being reelected in 2000. He has a reputation as a hard-working liberal on issues such as education and health care, but his personal life (stories of drinking and womanizing) has frequently been a hot topic for gossip columnists. Kennedy ran for president in 1980 but was defeated for the Democratic nomination by incumbent president Jimmy Carter.
protein wisdom: "Let's get right to it, Senator. Are you calling this administration an evil gang of liars?"
Kennedy: "Good afternoon, Mr. Wisdom. Well, that's a bit abrupt, but yes, I suppose I am."
protein wisdom: "– Just thought we should get that out of the way –"
Kennedy: "– No, I think it's helpful to be candid, you're right. But allow me to clarify my answer. Basically, when President Bush became president, I was very hopeful that we could work together in the areas of education reform. And we did. And President Bush had asserted, as I did, that you needed two things for education reform. You — you needed reform and you needed resources. What we did is we passed a bill that had reform, but we haven't had the resources. And that, I think, is similar to other kinds of issues that we're facing in public policy. I think this administration misled the American people in the war with Iraq. Iraq didn't have weapons of mass destruction, it wasn't tied to al Qaeda. What we should have been focusing on is al Qaeda. And we've also seen that with the Medicare bill. And I think one of the most important things that we can do is to have an administration that we can work with. We'll have philosophical differences, but I found that I could work with President Reagan on arms control. I worked with Bush senior on the Americans with Disabilities Act, along with Tom Harkin and others, who've worked in a bipartisan way. I was rather startled. I was rather surprised that after we had the downpayment on education, suddenly we stopped the funding, and it went in a different way."
protein wisdom: "Senator, when you say 'misleading,' do you mean to suggest that the administration is distorting things deliberately, or is this more a case of perhaps not having all the facts? What are you –"
Kennedy: "– Well, it's very, very clear with regards to education. We had reform plus funding. We just passed a $2.4 billion budget for this next year. We would have needed $8 billion out of the $2.4 trillion for the — for funding the No Child Left Behind. We got zero money in it. We don't want to misrepresent that we're doing something for children and then not do it. This was true in terms of the Medicare system — Medicare reform, where the Medicare — our seniors need prescription drugs. But they also need it at a price that they can afford it. And what we're going to have is a Medicare bill that they have at the present time with prescription drug prices that are right up through the roof."
protein wisdom: "I'm sorry. Not to get off topic here, but your head is absolutely enormous. Seriously. I'm having a really hard time concentrating. It's like I'm interviewing a planet –"
Kennedy: "Yes, I have a large head, sir. You're not the first to point that out, believe me. But to stay on message here, let me just say that basically, we've had differences with Democrats and Republicans, but this is an administration that has, as I mentioned, manipulated, distorted, misrepresented information. They did with regards to Iraq. They've done it with regards to education. They've done it with Medicare. They've done it with our economic policies. And we need a basis of trust so that we can try and work through even differences in philosophy. That's the big difference that we have with this administration compared to other Republican administrations –"
protein wisdom: "– I mean, it always looked big on TV, your head, but I must say that up close…well, it's stunning, frankly."
Kennedy: "This is the head I was born with, sir. This is the head I was born with. Now if I may continue. In one sense, I certainly consider the — well, I have a personal relationship with the president. But I also feel very strongly about the issues that are at stake. I've been fortunate enough to represent Massachusetts for 40 years in the United States Senate. I've been on the Education Committee. Education is very important to me. It is to families across the country. And so when you see the opportunities that are missed, and then you see the distortion, misrepresentation, that isn't just making me upset, but it's upsetting the students, who are putting out at 100 percent — as well as the parents, the school boards, all of those involved in education and reform. They're the ones that are the — the ones that are being left behind. I'm an advocate for the people that I represent, and I welcome the opportunity to do so. But I take these issues seriously."
protein wisdom: "Yeah, that's nice, but let me ask you this: has that head of yours ever gotten, y'know, stuck in a revolving door, anything like that? Because with a head that size — and I'd like to stress again for the benefit of my readers just how huge it is up close — I can't conceive of your not having trouble getting it through a revolving door. Without incident, at least –"
Kennedy: "No. I've never had a problem with revolving doors, Mr. Wisdom. But as I was saying, when I think of the economy, I think of a number of factors. I think of the issues of the jobs. And we know that all — with each of the new jobs, they are averaging $8,000 less in pay than the jobs they replaced. And we're still two million jobs less than the jobs that we had at the time that this administration, the Bush administration, took office. We — certainly the 300,000 that were added last week is a hopeful sign. But when we're talking about the economy, we're talking about the jobs that are paying less. The average pay is about 21 percent less for the new jobs created. We're also thinking about the cost of health care. The average cost for working families has gone up 43 percent. And so many people have dropped health care. The economy is also reflected in the fact that tuition has gone up 23 percent. And the tax cut nowhere near comes near to paying those. So working families — working families are working much longer. They're working much harder. And they're falling further behind. And that is the description — that is what I'm concerned about. And also, we have an administration that opposes raising the minimum wage for seven years. We're paying $5.15. This administration has been opposed and is also threatening to take away overtime for workers. And even for those that have been unemployed, now let the unemployment compensation fund lapse. You know, it just seems that working families, working people are just left behind with this administration, in a way which is really quite different from past administrations."
protein wisdom: "Yes, working people left behind, blah blah blah, gotcha. Seriously, though. It's like your neck gave birth to a giant ham, if you don't mind my saying. I expect you can't wear any kind of pullover sweaters, am I right? — it's all V-necks for you…?"
Kennedy: "Not at all. I mean, I have pullover sweaters and I have V-neck sweaters. I try not to limit myself to just one sweater style. Pullover-wise, I like Irish fisherman sweaters. From Galway. I have about 30 of them, in fact. And for the record, I'm quite proud of my head — just as I'm proud of my service to this country and of the label 'liberal.' I don't run from the label. But I think what Americans are looking for, more than labels — I think this administration would like to run on labels, because they have a basically weak record. Certainly they do in domestic affairs and in dealing with the economy and education and health care. But the fact is the American people want more than labels, and they want more than slogans. They want to know which of the candidates, whether it's this administration or John Kerry, is going to offer a vision and see a restoration of our economy, and an expanding and growing economy. And also a vision about what this country is going to be, not only for the people of this country, what we're going to represent around the world. John Kerry is going to have a positive, hopeful message — "
protein wisdom: "– Kerry's got a big head, too, come to think of it — kind of long and thin, like you'd expect to find on a racing dog… But it's nothing like yours. A fleshy, magnificent anvil with ears is what you've got. It's spectacular –"
Kennedy: "– And that, I think, is what Americans are going to really respond to. I think this administration is going to continue to try and look at labels, slogans, cliches, negative ads. I don't think over the long term Americans will buy that. What they're looking for is really — they're looking for addressing the kinds of issues that people are most concerned about in their daily lives: education, health care, health care costs, accessibility of health care. And quit it with the big-headed stuff, okay?"
protein wisdom: "I'm afraid that's impossible, Senator. It's like I'm sitting across the table from a full moon. I have to stare. But I will ask you this: you said several weeks back that Iraq is George Bush's Vietnam, and that this country needs a new president. Vietnam was started under a Democratic administration. How do you compare the two, Senator Bighead."
Kennedy: "We're facing a quagmire in Iraq, just as we faced a quagmire in Vietnam. We didn't understand what we were getting ourselves into in Vietnam. We didn't understand what we were doing in — in Iraq. We had misrepresentations about what we were able to do militarily in Vietnam. I think we are finding that out in Iraq, as well. That is basically the similarity. And we have to find new leadership in order to — to be able to resolve this with a sense of dignity and with a sense of respect, which is going to make sure that we're going to see an independent Iraq, that Americans are brought home with dignity."
protein wisdom: "Cutting and running — is that what passes for dignity in the land of the Big Heads? Tell me, do they have lots of pie in Big Headed Land, Senator? Because you look like you enjoy a slice or two of pie from time to time. Am I right? — lots of pie in Big Head land? A dietary staple of the giant headed people –?"
Kennedy: "Name calling. That's all you people do –"
protein wisdom: "– 'you people', Senator? You mean people who can buy their hats right off the rack –?"
Kennedy: "– I mean, here we had Mr. Clarke come up and make his presentation, and we saw the most vicious kind of attacks on him by the administration. We had General Shinseki on the Armed Services Committee make projections and predictions of what was going to happen in Iraq. And they dumped all over him. This is a technique. And I would hope that this aspect of the administration's assault on those that have been critical of the Iraqi policy and are showing to be correct in their predictions — I would hope that that kind of character assassination would be set aside. Beyond that, what we want to do is to find out what are the lessons that we can learn from this experience, that can hopefully give us a course, a path to the future so it can be avoided in the future."
protein wisdom: "Yes. We must avoid 'it' at all costs. Wanna know the lesson I've learned from this experience, Senator?"
Kennedy: "You're going to say something about the size of my head, aren't you? You're like a one-trick pony –"
protein wisdom: "Oh, you're so close! I was going to point out that your head is the size of Paul Simon — that it's like you've got an entire Jewish singer-songwriter poking up out of your collar — "
Kennedy: "Yes, how serendipitous for me. But if I may, I'd like to talk about the June 30th deadline for handing over power to the Iraqi governing authority. The date has been set. And obviously, to try and get the target, the bullseye, off the backs of Americans, as they are represented as occupiers and not liberators, that has to be something that we have to be successful at or we're going to have a very long, bloody, difficult, costly — additionally costly fight. The idea of transitioning into the Iraqi sovereignty makes some sense, but that date of June 30 — I believe when it was set, it was timed more to American elections than it was with regarding the development of the Iraqis to be able to achieve their own sovereignty –"
protein wisdom: "– You're speaking, of course, of the early July elections that take place in the Land of the Giant Headed Senators, correct –?"
Kennedy: " — the real question now, I think, is who are they going to turn the power and authority over to? Certainly, that is not very clear today, and that is something that has to be addressed."
protein wisdom: "What do you gather is public opinion concerning Iraq, Senator Enormous Head?"
Kennedy: "Very divided. I think the Americans still believe that somehow Iraq was involved in the — in 9/11 and that Saddam had some connection with it and that there was a danger of nuclear capability that would have threatened the world. And that if we didn't do something immediate, that Saddam was going to turn all of his weapons of mass destruction over to terrorists. There was complete distortion and misrepresentation among the Armed Services Committee. I not only listened to the testimony, but you could listen to the open testimony, and if you listened to those military men, highly decorated, highly competent, that predicted what was going to happen there, you would have voted no. I did vote no. But the point — the most important point is that Iraq has been a distraction from our attack on al Qaeda. I think most people believe now if we'd given the full force and attention that we gave to Iraq and put that in pursuit of Osama bin Laden, we could have been successful in locating him and could have dealt a fatal blow to al Qaeda. And now what we're facing is a hydra-headed terrorist group around the world. And it's more complicated, more difficult. And as I said, Iraq has become this administration's Vietnam –"
protein wisdom: "– 'Hydra-headed,' heh. That's a good one. I'm going to have to remember that one –"
Kennedy: "– And I'm standing by that assessment. I believe that there has to be an alteration or change. I believe that there is no way that this administration can develop the confidence internationally from any of the neighboring states in order to be able to build the kind of a policy where we could see the United States see a free and developed, independent Iraq and American forces brought home. I think you — there is no credibility left for this administration, and that part of the world needs a change. I think John Kerry has the background, the war experience, somebody that's seen war, understands war, and the foreign policy experience to give us a new opportunity to see this resolved, where we can bring Americans home with honor. That's what we're all interested in. And I think he's the man to do it."
protein wisdom: "Yes, perhaps he'll bring them home with honor, then accuse them all of raping babies and the like. I look forward to it. But I'd like to get back to that head of yours, which as I say is gargantuan. Where do you buy headphones, may I ask? Do you have them custom made? I mean, can the Japanese — a smallish people, generally speaking — even conceive of making headphones big enough to fit that skincovered beerkeg of yours –?"
Kennedy: "The Japanese, Mr. Wisdom, conceived of Godzilla, did they not? Not that I wish to dignify your question, but facts are facts are facts. Getting back to Senator Kerry, though… I think you'll see from Mr. Kerry a hopeful message, an upbeat message, a vision about what he wants to do here at home, particularly with regards to the economy, which is the key to all the hopes and dreams of families. And also, I think you're going to get a sense from this campaign the kind of leadership that he would provide in terms of national security here at home, in dealing with the challenge of terrorism abroad, and how he would be a leader within the free world community and get this issue behind us and address many of the other international issues."
protein wisdom: "Yes, I know. He'll go to the UN, swell, I feel safer already… Tell me about car windows, though. Can you poke that giant melon of yours out of a car window to, say, check your blind spot? Without smacking it into street signs or telephone poles, I mean –?"
Kennedy: "I don't wish to talk about driving, thank you –"
protein wisdom: " — Oh, yeah, that bridge thing, right… That had to suck, eh? Anyway, sorry –"
Kennedy: " — too much to ask to get through an entire interview without trotting out that tired old chestnut — "
protein wisdom: " — And thanks so much for doing this. All very edifying, Senator. Now go. It's Happy Hour. Order yourself some mozzarella sticks, some potato skins, have yourself a drink or something. You've certainly earned it. And your hands are beginning to shake, I see –"
Kennedy: "– A drink? As in one drink? No offense, son, but where the hell have you been…?"
update: Not a protein wisdom interview.
update 2: Also not a protein wisdom interview.
Comments (32)
I think you've, um, distilled things quite nicely here. The upcoming election is an epic battle between the Fatheads, for whom policy & performance matter, and the Pinheads, who revel in aspersion, however hilarious. Really, this interview strikes me as perfectly capturing what a conversation between Kerry and Bush would be like. Can't wait for the debates.
Too, I would imagine that Teddy Largocephalic has driven no more times drunk than George, nor do I believe has he killed any more passengers than Laura.
Dunno about that last bit. Plenty of bodies of water to drag around the Cape.
And let's face it: everybody looks pinheaded next to Teddy. He's get one of them college-sized refrigerators on his shoulders. Stuffed with beer, too. But that's just incidental.
if only he would finally just lay down, take one last breathe and fall asleep like the normal configured people
(your tip jar is SO getting hit in 10 seconds…)
"Seriously, though. It's like your neck gave birth to a giant ham, if you don't mind my saying. I expect you can't wear any kind of pullover sweaters, am I right?"
whoa, thought Jeff was practicing a little Narcissism there Jeff BBbbbB. Not that he wouldn't… and not that there's anything wrong with that.
And obviously Ted Kennedy moonlights as Mayor McCheese.
I know – I sow confusion wherever I go, with my inconvenient first name.
Jeff G, change your goddamn name, okay? Make it easy on me.
If Instapundit is correct and he and other bloggers have killed the newspapers as traditional sources of news, you have just done the same, Sir, to Saturday Night Live with respect to comedy. Thanks very much for that laugh. This should go on the Greatest Hits list with a bullet.
That was the funniest thing I have ever read. Thank you. It actually made me forget Berg knew Moussaui.
That was beyond hilarious. This thing will spread through the blogosphere like wildfire. We all maybe need to lighten up occasionally. Thanks
But I would like to know more about the scandalous conditions under which innocents are held against their will, forced to submit to sexual abuse and rape, and are humiliated while those in authority do nothing to enforce discipline among those they are responsible for.
Abu Ghraib? No. The Kennedy Family's Palm Beach Estate.
wait a minute… did you graduate in '83 from Randallstown?
Right school, wrong year. But close. Do I know you?
You forget to add "Now you listen to me, Protein! You may have it with other places but you don't interrupt me when I'm talking!"
The reason that Teddy Kennedy's head is so large is that his liver decided to move up there when it figured out his brain wasn't using the blood supply.
Brainstorm: the Ted Kennedy Head Kegerator. Oh man, I'm going to make a killing off this.
That interview is all the more profound since you seem to have caught Ted in that fleeting time between the end of a hangover and the beginning of an all-out binge. I swear, the number of times he calls himself "The Senior Senator from Massaquiddick…"
I went to Randallstown HS. Until I was a junior and then God and Exxon moved us to Texas [thank you Lord!!!!]
I hear they have drive-by shooting in the curriculum nowadays. Sorry I had to miss that.
So Mr. FancyPants,
"I was going to point out that your head is the size of Paul Simon—that it's like you've got an entire Jewish singer-songwriter poking up out of your collar—"
One question Goldstein, what have you got against Garfunkel, you bastaaaahd?
On a serious note, did the Paul Simon reference have anything whatsoever to do with, like, like, like a bridge over troubled waters? How dare you bring up http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/tedkennedychappaquiddick.htm
Oh, how do I say it …??? … you … you, Goldstein … you've got a gift.
Would Ted Kennedy be Senator if there was a web cam in the car while Mary Jo drowned?
I bet that he can really understand Saddam's burying alive of an entire family in their car, and probably does wonder what the big deal is.
Unfortunately, that big melon is composed of mostly bone, with a walnut-sized brain directly between those big red ears. If the DoD could develop a helmet of that density there would be few head wounds.
Two times I read this, and still can't find the device. Gotta be here somewhere, these are the senator's own finest phrases, undoctored, the best combos of precision sounds the minions of the Royal TennisBums can trotsky out of their unstables for little Tedligula to honk westward across hickdom! How in the world did this interview do that? No wonder the sinater from the state of Massivedumbshits so desperately desires to be so full of hot air! Would that he had such substance! His leadership such meaning!
That's funny, I always thought Ted Kennedy was beginning to look like Marlon Brando in his old age….
Errah, that was an, uhm, um, outstanding, errah, intahview with an an uhm, err, Kennedy.
thanks for um, errah, um, edahting out all of the err, uhm, awkward, err, uhm pauses that the Kennedys are, errah, umm…known for.
thankfully not all of the Irish up here are alcohol-addled morons like this embarassing clan
No one could work harder at dividing us than Teddy. But who listens to an old drunk?
I'd like to see Terrorists try and cut his head off! It was probably easier to take down the towers.
George B.
It might do some good, and then again it might not. But can you imagine Teddy's gin-blossom face when I send a copy of this petition for his resignation to every member of the Senate… with comments included?
"A fleshy, magnificent anvil with ears is what you've got. It's spectacular –"
Classic – you said 'fleshy'….
IT SAID: "…funny, I always thought Ted Kennedy was beginning to look like Marlon Brando in his old age…"
Would that he looked like Brando now.
Q: If God truly invented whiskey to keep the Irish (from which I'm descended) from ruling the world, then why did he invent Teddy?
A: That pesky "omniscience thing," coupled with the sudden realization that he'd invented waaaay too much whiskey probably tipped him off that making Teddy would be cheaper than having to pay the SooperFund disposal fees.
Cheaper for Him, but not to us.
Also, if the Jimmy Carter and the lawyers ever get hold of this, I fear for the timeliness ("punctiliosity" minus the obsequiousity) of my impending rapture.
Yipee! THANK YOU. This interview is my favorite, it really "well, it's stunning, frankly."
Thank you, Mr. Wisdom !
One of the best interviews Ted Kennedy has had in a while.
This is still one of my all-time favorite posts, at any website. Truly a classic.

This ginormous amount of water equates to about 7% of the total streamflow from Bend to Lake Billy Chinook. To put this into perspective, it would be like swimming in a lake filled with 6,400,000,000 imperial pints of beer. This also equates to more than 14 times Deschutes Brewery's annual water requirements, including our pubs and our entire supply chain combined! This action will improve fish habitat, water quality and overall stream health of our beloved river. We are so glad to be a part of this process so let's raise a 20 ounce (imperial) pint glass of Mirror Pond Pale Ale for the DRC, the river and the fish!

It seems the sexy Serb has become the UK's adopted tennis daughter of sorts (they could certainly use one), making two magazine covers this week alone.
We posted about the World No. 4's interview with The Observer Sport Monthly on Monday, and now the latest interview comes courtesy of London free weekly, Sport magazine. In our favorite exchange, Ana reveals a tennis trade secret only the ladies would understand:
Ah, the Press. Have you ever told them something you shouldn't?
"A few times. Once they asked me how much tennis players follow the fashion and I said a lot. What I wanted to say was "a little bit". But it's difficult when English is not your first language because sometimes you say something you don't mean."
So you said... what, exactly?
"I said that a lot of players pay attention to the way they look and they put on a lot of make-up when they go on court. Maybe it's not a nice thing to say, but it's true. There are a few of them."
In the top 10?
"Yes. When you are on court you don't want to be worrying that your mascara is running, but there are some players who really do. I'll give you a tip so you can tell who is using make-up. When they take a towel, the girls who are wearing make-up go like this (dabs face delicately), they never rub, so that it doesn't smudge. So you can tell just by watching."
We certainly will be...

Polyurethane Transmission Mount - Maintenance Free MountWritten by on September 1, 2000 Upgrade To A Polyurethane Transmission Mount And Never Think About It Again.
Most of the older Mopars that have made it through thirty-odd years to be around today are probably going to be around forever. Run a new car until it starts to crumble, and chances are it'll meet its end at the crusher. Take a surviving vintage machine, drive it endlessly, and it's fair to say that someone will be willing to take over keeping vigil on that treasured tin. Yeah, forever is a long time. Problem is, many of the pieces that went into building that classic mover were never designed with "forever" in mind. Go back with the same part, and it'll wear out or fail about as quickly as it did the first time around.
With modem materials, the typical life of a "replacement" part can be much greater than those that were around decades ago. Making a change while doing routine repairs can mean the job can afterwards be forgotten about-forever.
While doing some tranny work on one of our Chargers, a quick look at the soggy rubber trans mount told us its life was far from eternal. Constructed of mortal rubber, tranny mounts will always succumb to the ravages of time, with their end accelerated by the presence of seeping tranny fluid. Modern chemistry has brought us Polyurethane-tough, resilient, yet flexible and able to buffer vibration. The Year One catalog offered an Energy Suspension polyurethane tranny mount kit, an upgrade enduringly superior to the rubber it replaced.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Swap now to polyurethane, and while we won't promise eternal life, chances are you'll never have to worry about the trans tailhousing flopping around. Year One supplied this Energy Suspension polyurethane transmission mount kit.The poly replacement utilizes the original outer shell of the stock bushing, meaning the interals need to be gutted. Cooking the outer shell with a torch is one way to release the bond of the rubber to the shell, but we just used brute force. A twist with a pipe wrench will rip the inner metal sleeve free.Most of the rubber can be pried out with a screwdriver, and if the mount is really tired, it will practically fall to your feet.Before the new polyurethane insert goes in, the shell needs to be thoroughly clean. A wire wheel takes it to shiny clean steel.Some lube will help with sliding in the poly inserts, and prevent noise or wear as the bushing moves in the bore.

Learn Bottom Line On W.Va. Gambling
June 22, 2013
Once again this week, state legislators were asked to reconsider fees and taxes paid by gambling casinos in West Virginia. That certainly is a good idea — providing it is done objectively....
My point exactly. any can say I'm losing revenue. but if your clear profit of 35 million a year has dropped to 25 million a year over the last few years I don't think there is a complaint department for that.

about bolet size and safety?
Hello Zamanian, if the bolet is the same as the shaft length, then you are looking at 20.5 inches. Also the safety on the gun is just like any other gun it does have a safety on the gun which will not let it fire. But the safety of the gun is always the users. If you have any other questions or would like to place an order please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
Im curious about the mares 58 speargun. Is it powerful? I do a lot of spearfishing in the northeast, sometimes in poor vis. I need a powerful gun that can penetrate a triggerfish, stripped bass, flounder, tautoug, ect, but one thats also light and nimble. I find that with my 90 cm band gun I have adequate power but slower reaction time in the low vis. Thanks for your help.
Hello Steve, I would not shot anything over say 35lbs. But will have enough power to take them down. Once you start getting into the bigger fish. Small spear guns like this don't carry the power needed to penetrate the bigger fish. If you have any other questions please feel free to give us a call at 1.800.347.2822.
413110 - Sten mINI
The first Mares Sten was created in 1967. The Sten has since become the best dive buddy of countless spearfishermen around the world, who appreciate its precision, power, and reliability. In addition to sharing many features with the Sten , this model uses a two-piece head and 8-mm diameter shaft with threaded tip.
There is a connecting piston between the trigger and the 1.5-mm release cog for incredibly high sensitivity. Available in 28.8" size without power adjusting.
Product Details
Code: 413105
Length: 22.8"
Product Features
13mm internal barrel: The 13mm internal barrel can use either 7mm or 8mm shafts.
Superior accuracy: Special innovative technical solutions give these spearguns an accuracy that further exceeds all other products on the market. Ongoing comparison tests and the leading Mares technologies available helped achieve this result, along with valuable contributions from our engineers and top athletes.

E-Tip looks pretty good, but my heart is with the Partition. I've used it since I started hunting with no failures.
E-Tip looks pretty good, but my heart is with the Partition. I've used it since I started hunting with no failures.
I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. I like them all. Becoming a big fan of the Accubond though. Now my son Jeff uses the E-tip in his 6mm Remington and two years ago he got a nice big cow elk with one shot at 350 yards with it. The bullet did a really good job. Hard to go wrong with those three Noslers.

I've taken around 3 dozen white tails with the 165 BT in .30-06. No issues, ever. That being said I shoot Accubonds in my .25-06 for pronghorns. My choice for elk is also Accubonds. Put it in the right spot....no issues, ever.
Congrats on your succesful hunt CC. I shot a blacktail here in CA about ten years ago with my 30-06 at 80yds. He was quartering to me and I hit him just in front of his right shoulder with a BT. The bullet exited on his left shoulder. I could have stuck a softball in the exit hole. It was the most dammage I have ever had on a buck. Pretty much lost the whole front end.

Not shooting animals in the azz might be a good idea too.
While in Alaska, I shot my bull three times with a 7mm Remington Magnum and 160 grain accubonds over Retumbo. The first shot center punched the lungs broadside. The second shot was a high-shoulder shot that broke both scapulas. The third shot was a double-lung shot mildy quartering. All three bullets penetrated to the off-side hide, where they were recovered.
I collected the bullets and cleaned them the best I could of hide, fat, meat and debris. These are the results:
The three bullets:
The first broadside shot retained the most weight (63.5%):
The second shot encountered the most resistance by penetrating both scapulas, and not surprisingly retained the least amount (55.6%):
The last shot was very similar to the first (61.4%):
Overall, I think the 7mm Accubonds performed as designed, and performed very well. The internal damage to the lung tissue was extensive. I am confident that shot #1 was all that was needed, but I have always been a "shoot em 'til they're down" guy.
I have recovered quite a few different accubonds from different critters, and the consistency of performance is very good.

Nice job BB. Looks to me the Accubonds performed superbly. A huge bull moose is a lot of animal to go through so the penetration, weight retention, and overall performance look superb to me. Congratulations on the moose by the way.

Wonderful forest cabin situated cabin in Southern Norway... Ideal summer or winter... Few minutes from a fantastic sandy freshwater beach.
Set in a valley with direct views to the river and the local mountains this cabin is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the true Norway. The cabin is situated on a flat rock plateau on the edge of the heather clad pine forest. A short 50 metres walk takes you down to the crystal clear waters of the river. Where you can fish for trout, take a boat trip or just enjoy the peace and quiet of the Norwegian Countryside.
This log cabin in Norway is ideally located within a reasonably short drive from Oslo Torp (Ryanair). There is a large lounge and kitchen with open fire and wood stove. TV with UK Satellite Channels. There are four bedrooms sleeping a total of 9 people. Three of the bedrooms have twin beds that can be put together to form double beds. The fourth bedroom has a "family bed" consisting of a bunk bed with a double under and a single over.
One of the main features of this property is the wonderful and secluded sandy beach with 700 metres of the cabin. The river is closer just 20 meters from the cabin... The beach has a volley ball net... and is ideal for swimming.
The cabin is with 60 metres on one other cabin... but this is only used occasionally by the owners.. so the chances are you will be alone.. The area has walks... and great fishing possibilities. Trout and perch being the main fish caught.
Staying at Norwegian Wood Cabin is a chance to re charge your batteries... Reflect on the things that really matter in life.. and spend quality time with family and friends.

The views to Storefjell (Large Mountain) are amazing at sunrise when the sun changes the colour of the mountain to various shades of purple green and brown. Rising up to about 1000 metres the local glacier carved mountains are not the Alps but have a charm of their own. Locals believe the mountain range is in the shape of a sleeping giant troll…
The cabin is situated on the edge of a pine forest approximately 150 metres from the road. The pine forest is rich in wildlife including Moose (elk), Red Deer, Roe Deer, Red Squirrels, Artic Hares, Badgers and Foxes… There is the occasional wolf in the area, in fact as this is being written August 2007 there is a warning notice about wolves to local sheep farmers. Beavers inhabit the local rivers and evidence of their activity can be seen in the whole area. The bird life also is also in abundance with Black Wood Peckers and many different birds of prey, including golden eagles.
In the right season there is an abundance of berries and mushrooms including blue berries, cranberries and cloud berries (an arctic delicacy).
There are many walks from the cabin. You can walk for as long and where you wish because of Norway's relaxed "Right to Roam Laws"… The Norwegians believe that the countryside is for the people and "trespassing" is almost unheard of… So walk where you please… no one will bother you. Ordinance survey maps of the area are supplied in the cabin and we have a number of suggested walks.
Ski Centres are withi reach...
