Wednesday, Virginia Tech massacre survivor Colin Goddard told us he was taking part in the rally.
"Mayors Against Illegal Guns is an organization that is working to reduce gun violence. This summer they've taken a No More Names rally across the country, visited 25 states in each state, read the names of the 9,000 Americans who have been killed by guns since just the Newtown shooting last year. And each state they have other victims of gun violence, survivors. They have law enforcement. They have faith leaders. They have other local officials speaking to the need to reduce gun violence in America and tomorrow, tomorrow's rally will be the culmination of that tour in D.C. where they get to meet their members of Congress and Senate and have a big national event here in D.C.," Goddard told us.
We will have more on this rally tonight at 5 and 6.

Obama Fetishism – The Hollow Evil of Tactical Adoration
I'll bet the people who voted for Obama never realized how utterly cool they had become. They too get to have something in common with Tom Cruise! Like Tom Cruise they've been brainwashed, duped out of their money and will ultimately be betrayed by a nut-job cult. No, voting for Barack Obama doesn't quite automatically enroll you in the Church of Scientology, but when Time Magazine describes the 2nd Term of any US President as The Second Coming, I tend to think we've crossed a dangerous border between admiration and idolatry. Here's how Newsweek Magazine serves up a dose of blasphemy in honor of our Dominus et Deus, Barack I.Read More »

Rumors of war
Special Report | Job No. 1 for the United States is fighting the global war on terror, but problems around the world simmering since well before Sept. 11 are threatening to come to a boil
"Rumors of war" Continued...
At the Pentagon it's known as GWOT, an acronym bearing the imprint of the president who came into office swearing off nation-building and refusing to meddle in the affairs of far-off nations. Now he finds both things central to Job No. 1: the Global War on Terrorism.
U.S. response began on the morning of Sept. 11 when officials shut North American airspace to block further incoming terror strikes. Historians will sift the details of what must become the most unconventional war to date but perhaps a suitable first war of the 21st century. They will note the financial freezes and manhunts and paper trails searched from Munich to Malaysia, the sudden fame of a Florida flight school, the mysterious deaths of a recreational hunter and postal workers, nasal swabs of bureaucrats and lawmakers, and how an earthquake-an earthquake!-shook New Yorkers back into the streets in the middle of an autumn night.
Pentagon officials now say they began to formulate a battle plan for Afghanistan Sept. 12 while the smell of jet fuel still permeated the halls at headquarters. That day orders went out to ship senior commanders to Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. By Sept. 24, they say, they were ready to attack. On Oct. 5 the word came, and the first B-2 Stealth bomber took off from Diego Garcia bound for Afghanistan with two pilots only on board. During that 41-hour mission, the pilots took turns at the controls between naps in a discount-store lawn chair. The first Stealth bomber flew two complete missions-84 hours-without turning off its engines, dropped 16 bombs, and lost only one-half quart of oil.
Navy fighters flying from three aircraft carriers commenced a 95-a-day rate of sorties over Afghanistan that would continue through the opening days of the war. Unmanned Predators and Global Hawks, both crafts technically in testing phase, also took to the air over Afghanistan, bringing near-real-time images back to command posts. At the same time, Air Force cargo planes took off from Germany to drop thousands of food packets to Afghans. It was perhaps the first page of the epic in how U.S. forces go to war in the unipower, American Age.
The next page belongs to special forces, who became the yeomen of the war, fighting above altitudes for which they had trained, sometimes in three feet of snow, painting laser targets for the air forces above while penetrating cave strongholds below. Ground troops linked up with local forces, eventually crumbling the Taliban regime and setting al-Qaeda terrorists on the run. Twenty-four servicemen have died in the effort. Eight American journalists have been killed in Afghanistan, along with Daniel Pearl of The Wall Street Journal, who was killed in Pakistan while reporting on the war.
Now Pentagon officials are again at the drawing boards, tracing plans for other battlefields. They say they are planning not only for Iraq but also for Iran and sundry places where the United States may find itself challenged without advance warning. That includes, at present, India and Pakistan, where tensions along the border could quickly impinge on U.S. strategy and forces in the Afghan war.
And when war is over, reconstruction begins. Building lasting good government is the hard part. In Afghanistan tribal factions and infighting pose real threats to lasting peace. Tribal minorities still hold most of the power, which prohibits grassroots leadership from arising. U.S. officials are aware that today's interim government leaders are yesterday's warlords.
Relief worker Dan Cooper makes this analogy: "It's like the international community has taken a big old tree, cut it down then set it up in the middle of town. Everyone walks around the tree and says, 'Isn't it beautiful?' But when they walk away, the tree falls over."
Pakistan and India
America is either with us or with the terrorists," said Omar Abdullah, a member of India's parliament, after yet another attack across India's border in Kashmir by Islamic militants. Raids by armed extremists are keeping tensions high between the two. They force the United States to treat as a main event what should be a sideshow in the global war on terrorism.
India and Pakistan for 30 years have fought over Kashmir, a beautifully rugged and poor extremity of their shared 1,800-mile border. Since both countries tested nuclear weapons in 1998, an escalating conflict-as it is now playing out-poses risks beyond the remote area.
India began pouring troops along the border after Islamic militants attacked its parliament in December. Historically the militants conduct raids across the border and the better-armed Indian troops shell their Pakistan strongholds in return. Now both sides have nearly a million fighters stationed there and tension is high. Despite Pakistan's assistance in the war on terrorism, Islamic militants have not been removed from Pakistan's side of the border. President Pervez Musharraf has been tough on radical Islamic groups, but the Kashmir war of nerves displays just how entrenched are their roots in the country. When the militants storm an Indian camp, as they did on May 30, killing three policemen and wounding others, they threaten to turn the border standoff into a regional war. Daily casualties from the fighting are running up to several dozen killed and wounded.
The conflict tests the limits of the U.S. alliance with Pakistan in the GWOT. Pakistan helped create and foster the Taliban and al-Qaeda, and has long used radical Islamic groups as forward troops in its disputes with India. The clashes now test whether Mr. Musharraf can bring those groups to heel. It also throws into relief the difference between government systems: India has pursued a secular democracy while Pakistan continues to blend democracy with Islam. Both countries have problems with radical religious elements, but only Pakistan retains a blasphemy law that is tied to Muslim Shariah code. Under it the government charges with violations not only 60 Christians a year but also hundreds of Muslims.
But what's thus far kept the peace-such as it is-may be both sides' nuclear weapons. Violence overall in Kashmir has dropped since the 1988 nuclear tests, and both sides know it's in their best interest to find a solution before sporadic fighting goes nuclear. And the United States would like to include the two enemies as its own allies in the war on terrorism.
African wars
African wars are not politically correct news. It is no news that they seldom make headlines in the United States, especially when Central Asian battlefields are hot. Civil war in Congo continues to include forces located in Angola and Uganda. A recent upsurge of fighting in Liberia threatens the government of Charles Taylor and could spill into Sierra Leone, only now breathing again after a civil war that began in 1991.
In Sudan, once the base of operations for Osama bin Laden, officials of the Islamic government in Khartoum have used the cover of war on terrorism, and a flawed ceasefire plan negotiated with U.S. Special Envoy John Danforth, to terrorize southern Sudan again.
An attack on the town of Rier in Western Upper Nile took place on May 22, just as U.S. Agency for International Development director Andrew Natsios, who is also the president's Special Humanitarian Coordinator on Sudan, was set to visit the area hours later. Early reports confirmed 15 dead, at least 35 critically wounded, and more than 60 others hurt. Attacks on civilians are common, particularly in this oil-rich region where Khartoum's forces would like to clear the land of habitation.
Earlier, in February, a Sudanese army helicopter gunship attacked the town of Bieh in Western Upper Nile, killing 17 and injuring dozens, nearly all women and children. The attack came just as villagers gathered to accept a food delivery from the UN World Food Program. UN officials had obtained permission from the government in Khartoum to make the food drop.
As fighting between rebels in the south, which is predominantly Christian, and the Islamic government in the north passes its 19th year, attack sites by the government have focused on lands slated for oil development. Those areas have been the focus of Sudanese government pogroms, with forces using the sporadic gunship attacks to scatter villagers. Then oil developers-Canadian, European, and Chinese-can move in. After the strikes, Khartoum went one step further: restricting UN humanitarian flights, which carry 80 percent of U.S. aid into southern Sudan.
Despite those setbacks, former Sen. Danforth has recommended renewing diplomatic relations with Khartoum, which ended six years ago. The State Department complied, naming Jeffrey Millington the first resident diplomat. He began meetings with Khartoum leaders May 30.
Middle East
Christians do not speak with one voice on Middle East conflicts. On the one hand are Christian organizations and churches who view the return of modern Jews to the state of Israel as a fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy. Since they believe modern Israel should enjoy divine status in the region, these organizations align themselves with Jewish groups in the United States to lobby for a pro-Israeli policy-earning the designation "Christian Zionists."
International Christian Embassy Jerusalem is one such group. It began in 1980 "to bless and comfort Zion" after 13 nations, under threat of an Arab oil embargo, moved their embassies from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv. Today the organization has nine overseas branches of support, although its staff is mostly American. The group publishes, online and in print, the Middle East Digest (icej.org) with brisk analysis of the current intifada. It sides with Israelis who believe that establishing a Palestinian state within Israel's borders would compromise national security.
When Palestinians took refuge this spring inside Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity, Christian Embassy director Malcolm Hedding condemned their act as "a premeditated offense by militant outlaws."
Christians living in Bethlehem at the same time condemned Israel for ordering forces into the city. They said that by sending tanks and troops into Manger Square, Israel provoked the confrontation and turned it into an international incident. They also condemn Israeli forces for denying food deliveries to those who remained inside the church 19 days. "The appropriate response from Israel is not to retaliate with worse war scenes to be shared, but by withdrawing, and ending the occupation," said Riah Abu El-Assal, the Anglican bishop of Jerusalem.
An Arab Christian but Israeli citizen, Mr. Riah told WORLD he encountered 14 checkpoints between Nazareth and Jerusalem on his way to a meeting with church leaders during the height of the confrontation in April. The delays by Israeli authorities caused him to miss the meeting. Mr. Riah told WORLD he condemns the suicide bombings carried out by Palestinian terrorists, "but I want to make it clear that I do support Mr. Arafat in his struggle for independence, and see that peace can only be based on justice, when the Palestinians under occupation are liberated from all their sufferings." (WORLD earlier reported that Mr. Riah did not support the Palestinian Authority leader.)
Many Arab Christians are discriminated against along with Arab Muslims in Israel and side with the Palestinians politically. Their position receives support from a wide range of Christian organizations-from the World Council of Churches to conservative churches and parachurch groups in the United States, like the Assemblies of God, who sponsor workers among Palestinians and identify with their hard plight. They see providing justice to Palestinians as the priority. Many also believe the prophecies concerning Israel were fulfilled in the New Testament coming of Jesus Christ.
Debates between those two sides over the fighting between Israelis and Palestinians obscure another troublesome plight: the slow extinction of Christians in the Middle East. Once a majority in places like Bethlehem and Nazareth and in countries like Lebanon, Christians number less than 14 million in a population of 200 million. Millions emigrate because of individual persecution and political oppression, largely at the hands of Muslim neighbors.
While 1.5 million Christians remain in Lebanon, more than 6 million live abroad. Jerusalem had 28,000 Christian residents at the time of modern Israel's formation in 1947; now they number well under 10,000.

Melbourne, Australia (SportsNetwork.com) - Jason Day birdied three of his last
six holes on Saturday to close out a 5-under 66 and claim a 1-stroke lead at
the World Cup of Golf.
Day, who is seeking his first win since the 2010 Byron Nelson Championship,
finished three rounds at Royal Melbourne Golf Club at 9-under-par 204.
"The green speed wasn't as fast as yesterday, especially through 16, 17 and
18," Day said in a televised interview. "I liked how the course was set up. I
think the guys did a good job doing that and very excited how I played today."
Second-round leader Thomas Bjorn managed just an even-par 71 during his third
round to sit in second place at 8-under 205.
Matt Kuchar (68) is in third at 6-under, while Francesco Molinari (66) owns
fourth at minus-5 and Kevin Streelman (74) is fifth at 4-under.
Graeme McDowell (67) and Hideto Tanihara (71) share sixth place at 3-under
Day's move to the top of the leaderboard caused Australia to jump ahead of the
United States for the lead in the team portion of the competition with a
combined score of 11-under-par 415. The American team of Streelman and Kuchar
sit a shot back at 10-under.
Bjorn entered the day with a 1-stroke lead over Streelman and quickly added to
his advantage with a birdie at the first, moving him to 9-under.
Stuart Manley then joined Streelman in second as he opened his round with
back-to-back birdies at the first and second before recording a hole-in-one at
the third.
Manley, however, followed that fast start with an 11 at the par-4 fourth to
fall all the way to even-par and hand Day, who birdied the first and second to
reach minus-6, second place. Streelman had bogeyed the second and fourth
around a double-bogey 5 at the third to lose his share of second.
Day would bogey the fifth to drop to minus-5 and into a tie with Molinari,
Kuchar, Tanihara and Ricardo Santos, handing Bjorn a 4-stroke lead.
Bjorn then dropped a shot at the seventh to cut his advantage to three before
Day pulled ahead of the pack with a birdie at the ninth to claim sole
possession of second place.
Day later moved within a stroke of the lead with a birdie at the 13th, and
was handed a share of first place when Bjorn bogeyed the par-3 14th after
finding a greenside bunker with his tee shot.
Day briefly pulled ahead with a birdie at the 15th from about 15 feet, but
Bjorn answered with a lengthy birdie putt of his own at the 16th to meet the
Australian at 8-under.
The tie was shortlived, however, as Day regained the outright lead with a
birdie at the 17th. He would 2-putt for par at the last to finish at 9-under.
"I got off to a good start with two birdies, but during the middle of my round
it started to get away a little bit," said Day. "I just stayed patient, just
let it happen and coming home I holed a lot of good putts."
Bjorn followed with the final group of the day and found trouble when his
second shot came up short of the green and landed in a bunker, but he nearly
holed his next shot and tapped in for par to remain a shot off the pace.
NOTES: Day is teamed with Adam Scott, who shot 68 on Saturday and sits in a
tie for eighth place at 2-under-par 211 ... The tournament consists of 60
players representing 34 different countries based on the Official World Golf
Ranking. The top two players from each country are teamed up and their scores
are combined to account for their team score ... Kuchar won the team event
with Gary Woodland the last time this tournament was contested in 2011.

Dr. Ed Mullins, Chairperson
Office: 490 Phifer Hall
The Department of Journalism offers a curriculum that mixes academics with practice to ensure that students are well schooled in writing and editing and in analyzing the issues, conventions, and practices of modern journalism. The departmental requirements give journalism majors both guidance and flexibility in their selection of courses.
The department's emphasis on writing, reporting, and the practice of journalism—as well as the attention given to the liberal arts—makes those who complete the journalism program qualified for many types of jobs and professions.
Newspaper reporting and editing. The newspaper industry has been the traditional field of choice for the journalism major, but certainly not the only one (see below). Newspapers offer some of the best opportunities for journalism majors who are still in school and want the professional experience of internships, or who have just graduated and are seeking their first jobs. Journalism majors are aggressively sought after by newspapers for reporting, copy editing, graphics, and layout and design positions. Many newspapers are also developing new products, such as weekend magazines or website editions, and they need people trained in all aspects of reporting, writing, editing, and design.
Magazine writing and editing. The growth of magazines in the last 30 years has been of major importance in the field of mass communication. More than 10,000 magazines are published in the United States today. There are general circulation publications, along with magazines that cover almost every specialized subject in which Americans have an interest. They employ managing editors, manuscript editors, department editors, production managers, art designers, and other staff members. While few have full-time writers, many staff members are given the opportunity to write, and nearly all magazines solicit work from freelance writers. It is conservatively estimated that American magazines publish 100,000 articles each month.
Graphics journalism. Presenting information through graphic means has become a major part of the news and information business. The appearance of USA Today in 1982, the development of the Macintosh computer, and the Internet explosion of the 1990s have had profound effects on the way journalists and consumers think about information. News organizations need people who understand the rules, conventions, and customs of graphic presentation and who also know how to report and write news.
Photojournalism. All photographs are not necessarily worth a thousand words, but high-quality photographs—those that capture the essence of the moment—are used by newspapers, magazines, and organizational publications around the world. Photojournalism is a fast-paced, on-the-spot approach to gathering the news because the critical moment of action, once lost to the camera, can never be recalled. International news services, daily newspapers, and many pictorial magazines hire staff photojournalists whose primary assignments are gathering the news with a camera. Also, many media and business organizations now prefer writers who also have photographic skills, enabling more efficient and cost-effective operations.
New media journalism. Traditional mass media, including newspapers and magazines, have taken the lead in publishing on the Internet. Journalism graduates have an advantage over experienced journalists in getting jobs in this sector because technology has played a major role throughout their education. Good writers and editors with a strong commitment to accuracy and fairness and a flair for graphics and design are much in demand and will be more so as more publications, institutions, and businesses go online.
Newsletter editing or publishing. One of the fastest growing areas of journalism is the specialty newsletter. These publications exist in business, politics, sports, leisure, recreation, hobbies—in other words, in almost every area of interest. Producing a newsletter takes a combination of reporting, editing, design, and marketing skills, making the journalism major someone who is highly valued by people in this field.
Corporate communications. Many journalism majors find jobs in corporate communications as writers, editors, and advisors to management. Corporations need people skilled in writing, photography, and design to produce newsletters, press releases, letters, brochures, graphics, annual reports, and many other types of material.
Graduate studies, law school, and business. The journalism major provides students with excellent preparation for a variety of careers outside of the journalism field. Solid grounding in the social sciences and humanities—along with specialized journalistic training in writing, gathering information, critical thinking, and public affairs—can open many doors. Students also find that the journalism curriculum provides solid preparation for graduate studies in a number of fields, including law school and other professional studies.

Professional mentoring. Each student is advised to develop a network of friends in the media professions by joining media-career student organizations, attending lectures and discussions sponsored by the College and University, interviewing prospective employers at career days, and attending receptions honoring visiting professionals. The department has an active professional-in-residence program that has brought many of the top professionals in the field of journalism to the campus. Representatives from news organizations such as the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Chicago Tribune, and USA Today have come to campus to speak to student groups and interview students for jobs and internships.
Professional experience. Students should seek a variety of media work experience, exploring opportunities at the campus newspaper, the Web, the yearbook, the lifestyle magazine, literary magazines, departmental and alumni newsletters, and radio and cable television, and in University public relations and sports information offices.
Students are encouraged to seek summer jobs with professional media organizations following the freshman and sophomore years. An internship sometime before the senior year makes students marketable when they graduate. The College placement office, 297 Phifer Hall, assists students with finding internships and jobs.

The body found Friday in the Mississippi Sound is that of a kayaker who had been missing for 10 days.
Harrison County Coroner Gary Hargrove says an autopsy Saturday confirmed the body as that of 23-year-old Nick Rainer, who went missing Feb. 27 while kayaking with his father.
The state Marine Patrol found the body more than four miles south of Biloxi. The body had been spotted by a charter boat fisherman.
The younger Rainer and his father, Ken Rainer, were last seen near Biloxi Bay's mouth, but a shrimper later found two empty kayaks. The father's body was found Feb. 28 near Davis Bayou.
Hargrove says family members helped identify the body through tattoos and birth marks.
Hargrove says Rainer died as a result of drowning.

This is one of the only chocolate chip cookie recipes that I make anymore. They are delicious and fun to share!
Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
From EatingWell: Spring 2004, The Essential EatingWell Cookbook (2004), July/August 2012
EatingWell reader Beverley Sharpe of California contributed this recipe. She updated a favorite treat by cutting back on sugar and incorporating whole grains. To increase protein, she replaces the rolled oats with 1 cup almond meal.
185 Reviews for Bev's Chocolate Chip Cookies
these are great cookies....have them in the oven right now...I added 1/2 a teaspoon black walnut extract...to give them a nutty flavor....I used 1/2 semi sweet and 1/2 dark chocolate chips...I am getting 5 dozen cookies using a heaping teaspoonful....
GOOD JOB Bev!!!!!
The base recipe for these cookies are great! I've made them dozens of times and over time modified them slightly to my taste. First, grind the oats really well (30+ sec in food processor, reversing the rotation every 8-10 seconds). The more you grind the smoother the texture.I also use half unbleached flour and half whole wheat for the same reason. A bit less granulated sugar than called for (1/4c...I'm not a fan of really sweet cookies). And I use egg beaters (or store brand) as an egg substitute. Lastly cut back on the amount of chips but use the mini-morsels as they give you the chocolate chip flavor but distribute better.
These go fast so double the recipe. And they are so much better than the high fat, too sweet Toll House cookies.
Terrific recipe! I love grinding the oats. I have made the recipe a few times. This last time, I threw in a few teaspoons of coffee and substituted half of the sugar for maple syrup. This sure made for a great taste!
This is the standard by which I hold all chocolate chip cookies. My family and friends all love this recipe. Yummy, yum,yum...

After the clouds left, there was a skiff of snow on the San Juans, which I'm sure will be gone this am as the sun is shining bright. Starting to feel like fall. Going to Lake City next Saturday for a week. Weather says its been in the low 40"s every night. I am planning on doing some hiking up in the mts above timberline, some fishing and have an appiontment with an outfitter for a possible 2014 M/L hunt.

The Air Force has kicked-out one of it's officers and is sending him to prison for 17 years.
A court-martial found 42-year-old Lt. Col. James w. Richards, IV guilty Thursday of possession of child pornography, indecent acts on a child under the age of 16 and violating "no contact" orders.
The Air Force launched its an investigation after a man in Texas claimed Richards molested him ten years ago.
During that investigation, Air Force officials found out Richards met a local 16-year-old online in 2010 and started a sexual relationship.
The court martial dismissed Richards from the Air Force, which is the equivalent of a dishonorable discharge, and sentenced him to 17 years confinement in a military facility.

text: Better to be prepared than not be. I know people that have ran into them in the area and heard story's about them being around. I personnaly wouldn't be surprised if you would run into one but I'd say it's unlikely. Always better to be prepared, I hunt the same area and always go in knowing it could be a possibility.

401(k) plan participants last November maintained a now six-month trend in moving money to fixed income from equities, according to Aon Hewitt's November 401(k) Index.
In November, $253 million, or 0.2%, of 401(k) assets was transferred among investment options, with fixed-income investment options receiving the majority of the net transfers, according to a news release from Aon Hewitt. Bond funds received $149 million, the largest amount of total inflow activity, followed by stable value, at $94 million. Money market funds gained $6 million.
It was the opposite story for equities as nearly all types of equities saw net outflows. Including sponsoring company stock, $239 million of all transfers came from equities. U.S. small-cap equity funds had the largest outflows, totaling $67 million, or 28% of total outflows. International funds lost $43 million, followed by U.S. large-cap equity funds, which lost $36 million for the month.
Transfer activity was slightly below average for the month, with 0.033% of balances transferred on average during November, according to the news release.
The average participant equity allocation declined to 58.6% from 58.8% a month earlier. Employee-only contributions directed to equities also continued to decline in November to 60.8%, from 61.5% in October. Contributions to equities have steadily fallen since July, according to the release.
Aon Hewitt spokeswoman MacKenzie Lucas said in an email that the Aon Hewitt office was closed and that no one was available for comment.
The 401(k) Index universe is made up of Aon Hewitt's record-keeping clients, which have about $100 billion in total assets.

PUBLISHED April 28, 2012 0 1 / 7 New York Debut The space shuttle Enterprise rides high over Manhattan Friday morning, gliding past the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum on the banks of the Hudson River below. The orbiter landed in New York City today on its way to becoming a part of the Intrepid's collection. NASA's first space shuttle, Enterprise was used in the late 1970s to conduct a series of atmospheric test flights, which proved that the shuttles could safely glide back to Earth without engines. The orbiter never flew in space, and in 1985 it was retired and donated to the Smithsonian Institution.(Also see the inside of the space shuttle Discovery in extreme detail.)Until recently, Enterprise had been on display at the National Air and Space Museum's Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Virginia.But following the completion of the space shuttle program last year, the Smithsonian agreed to swap Enterprise for the spacefaring shuttle Discovery, which took up permanent residence in the Udvar-Hazy Center last week. (See pictures: "Space Shuttle Discovery Rolls Into New Home.") Photograph courtesy Robert Markowitz, NASA Lighting the Way Lady Liberty greets the space shuttle Enterprise as the spacecraft sails into New York City atop a modified Boeing 747 Friday morning.Hundreds of onlookers gathered around the Intrepid museum and other sites along Manhattan's west side to watch Enterprise fly into town.Even though the orbiter didn't fly a space mission, it's still "an institution in American history," Susan Marenoff-Zausner, Intrepid's president, told the Associated Press.Enterprise "tested so many different things that without it, travel into space would never have happened." Photograph by Bruce Bennett, Getty Images To Boldly Go With Enterprise riding piggyback, NASA's Shuttle Carrier Aircraft takes off from Dulles International Airport in Sterling, Virginia, Friday morning.Completed in 1976, Enterprise was originally supposed to have been named Constitution, in honor of the U.S. Constitution's bicentennial. But a write-in campaign by fans of the Star Trek TV series led to the orbiter's current designation.According to Reuters, actor Leonard Nimoy, who played Spock in the original series, was among those in New York today to witness Enterprise's arrival.

Photograph courtesy Mark Avino, Smithsonian Institution/NASA Mark Avino Shuttle Spotting During its New York City flyover Friday (pictured), the shuttle soared past the Statue of Liberty, along the Hudson River, and over the George Washington Bridge before landing at John F. Kennedy International Airport. Enterprise is no stranger to cheering crowds: The orbiter went on tour in 1983, making public appearances in France, Germany, Italy, England, and Canada. The spacecraft also went on display in New Orleans during the 1984 World's Fair. (Also see "The Most Unforgettable Space Shuttle Pictures.") Photograph by Shannon Stapleton, Reuters City Slicker Framed by skyscrapers, the space shuttle Enterprise glides over the Hudson River Friday on its way to New York's JFK airport.Now on the ground, the orbiter will be "demated" from the carrier aircraft and eventually shipped by barge up the Hudson to its new home atop the Intrepid. (Related: "Space Shuttle Discovery Arrives to Take 'Place of Honor.'")The Intrepid itself is a retired aircraft carrier that served in World War II as well as during the Vietnam conflict and the Cold War. The military ship was converted into a museum that opened in New York in 1982. Photograph by Mary Altaffer, AP Enterprise On Deck An artist's concept shows what Enterprise will look like on display in the Space Pavilion of the Intrepid Sea, Air, and Space Museum.The pavilion—to be built on Intrepid's flight deck in June—will be the shuttle's temporary home until the museum can construct a permanent facility, according to museum officials. The shuttle is slated to go on public display on July 19.This fall NASA will fly the space shuttle Endeavour from Florida's Kennedy Space Center to Los Angeles, where the orbiter will join the collection of the California Science Center. The shuttle Atlantis, meanwhile, will remain in Florida and be housed at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

So, now what?
For those of you just tuning in, after ten years as a B-level music blog and the greatest website to ever come out of Columbus, Ohio, we are retiring the blog and becoming a print publication. One issue a year, hopefully the first one done in the summer. We'll keep you updated here, but you can also follow along on our new Tumblr or our brand new e-mail newsletter. Sign up here, people. And if you'd like to learn where to keep up with Donewaiting staff as they continue to produce content, go here.
Details about closing up Donewaiting's website can be found here or an interview I did with Kevin Elliott.
Looking back at the past ten years of running a music website, the highlights that come to me are not about the mp3s we posted, the interviews, or any of the actual blog stuff, but it's really about the people. People like Joel Oliphint, who took on a thankless job when I moved back home to New York, becoming our Columbus Music Editor and general pulse of the site, squeezing stories out of the staff and trying to keep the train on the tracks. Just the other day he wrote a great piece in Pitchfork about Musicol that you can read here. I think we were holding him back! :) If it wasn't for Joel, I would have been lost these past three years and can't thank him enough. (I also encourage you to read his side of the story over at the new Maura Magazine)
Wes Flexner wrote about his greatest hits over here. I love his point of view and am excited to see what he does with his new website.
Chip Midnight was with Donewaiting since the beginning. He's launched a new Columbus-specific website too, and is molding the next generation of music writers.
The list goes on. Ben, Tankboy, Kirk, Rachael, Kim, Andrew (he was my wedding DJ, too), Han Q Duong, Leo, Steve, David, Danica, Adriana, Slaybaugh, Mike Kania and Brian Adams who built the first version of Donewaiting, Nicholas Nocera, Sunken Treasure Records, Ahmed, Benco, Reno, Dan Dougan, Jerry Dannemiller, many people I am not listing helped the site in one way or another.
Since we're not completely closing down, I don't want to make this too much of an obituary, but I do want to end with one final thing. Creating Donewaiting brought me to some of my closest relationships. Once I started to explore the local music scene, Miranda Sound was the first Columbus band I fell in love with. In the ten years since seeing them perform live, we've become close friends, business partners, and Dan Gerken even officiated my wedding. That's because of Donewaiting. Kiesha Jenkins was also a fan of Miranda Sound, and it was because of Donewaiting.com that I met the love of my life. Everything good about the website is because of the things that happened in the real life.
Keep in touch. The print version will come soon. Covering all aspects of culture, not just music. Limited edition.

1. Ok, if we're going to do folds the first thing you should probably do is get some paper, fold it, and see what it looks like. Pay close attention to the darker areas of the paper. Turn it at various angles to see better. For your convenience I've already done that so let's get on with it.
2. Folds generally work best on antique-style maps since the effect gets lost with brightly colored styles. So make yourself an old, beat-up, grungy, weathered, burnt, old-lookin map. Here's what I doodled up:

Ménière's (say "men-YEERS") disease is a disorder of the inner
ear that affects hearing and balance. It causes sudden attacks of vertigo (a
spinning sensation), tinnitus (a loud ringing in the ears), and hearing loss
that may be temporary or permanent. The cause of Ménière's disease is not known, but it may be
related to a fluid imbalance in the inner ear.
Treatment includes
medicines and sometimes surgery.
Avoiding salt, caffeine, alcohol, tobacco, and stress may prevent attacks.

The ATP, which will be rebranded the ATP World Tour next year, has just unveiled its "FEEL IT" campaign for 2009 starring some of the world's top ballers in the world including World No.1 Rafael Nadal, Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Andy Roddick and James Blake. The original "FEEL IT" concept for the campaign debuted this past season and helped jump start the ATP's rebranding efforts.
The campaign will "focus on bringing to life the unique global aspect of the ATP World Tour. The evolution of the campaign will position ATP World Tour stars like Rafael Nadal as titans of the sport; playing tennis that is 'out of this world'. The new execution will bring to life many of the amazing locations of the ATP World Tour and will focus on communicating the ultimate goal of the season, to become the 2009 ATP World Tour Champion."
Rafa had this to say about appearing in the ads:
I like the new ATP advertising campaign. They have done a great job with this since it is cool and spectacular and although I consider myself someone very down to Earth it is funny to see us up there playing with the stars. I hope this campaign helps bring more attention, new people and fans to the tennis tournaments. I understand this is the goal and I am sure we will make it happen.The full marketing campaign will be comprised of TV spots, billboards, online banners, virals, merchandise, fan giveaways and PR stunts.
The ATP also debuted the new logos for the newly named Barclays ATP World Tour Finals (formerly the Masters Cup), the ATP World Tour Masters 1000, the ATP World Tour 500, and the ATP World Tour 250.

Greensboro, NC -- The greensboro police officer at the center of racial discrimination allegations has decided to re-file his lawsuit against the city. Initially, Lieutenant James Hinson was seeking damages in excess of $30,000 dollars.
After finding a tracking device on his car, Hinson accused former Police Chief David Wray of discrimination. Hinson claimed police followed him without reason and unfairly targeted black officers.
Last September, Lieutenant Hinson came by our studios to announce he was dismissing his inital suit, as a way to help the city. "I will treat today's actions as a peace offering to the city of Greensboro, providing an opportunity to resolve the issues in this case without the cost, inconvenience and further polarization that comes with continued litigation."
Last year, Hinson did say he would consider re-filing the suit within the next year if the issues can not be resolved out of court.
In the new suit, Hinson also blames discrimination for his failure to be promoted since 2001. Former Police Chief David Wray has repeatedly denied any discrimination took place.

IJAMSVILLE, Md. (AP) — Most children have an idea of what they want to be when they grow up — whether it's an astronaut, baseball player or doctor — but few get to live out that childhood dream.
Laura Page Warden, veterinarian and co-owner of the Green Valley Animal Hospital in Ijamsville, is one of those lucky few.
As a girl growing up in Rockville, Page, 50, would try to nurse back to health small animals and birds that had fallen victim to her cat. While these efforts yielded limited success, she said, she had found her calling.
"I knew from day one I always wanted to be a vet," Page said. "I used to watch that TV show 'Daktari.' It was about a jungle veterinarian, and he would work on Clarence the cross-eyed lion and the monkeys, and I always thought, 'That's what I'm going to do.'"
While her practice involves less exotic creatures — mostly cats, dogs and the occasional pet snake — Page said she is just happy to be able to do what she always hoped to do.
Her career almost took a different path, though. Page said she was discouraged from getting into veterinary medicine by people who said it was too challenging and competitive. There were only 24 vet schools in the country at the time.
"I was told, 'Vet school is too hard and you'll never get in,' so I thought about going into nursing," Page said.
She enrolled at the University of Maryland, where even her counselors tried to steer her away from veterinary medicine, she said.
But she worked for a veterinarian throughout college and after graduation, and that strengthened her desire to go into the field, Page said.
In 1985, she enrolled at the vet school at Tuskegee University in Alabama.
Page worked for a vet in Montgomery County before she moved to Frederick County and started with Green Valley Animal Hospital in 1992. The move was about quality of life, she said.
"I looked out of my exam room and looked out at the pastures with the goats and the pigs and everything, and just loved it," said Page, who lives in New Market with her family. "And the people, the clients were just wonderful. Everybody loved their animals. It's just been a really good relationship, a really good client base, and I could just feel that it had a different air to it than down in Montgomery County. I felt like I was part of a family."
She bought the hospital in 2003.
Page maintained a single-minded focus on her goal, and she followed a piece of advice her mother gave her when she expressed fear about having to take a physics class at Maryland, she said.
"She said, 'If you're going to be defeated, let someone else defeat you, but never defeat yourself.'"

Pakistan: Fresh displacements in Khyber Agency
|Integrated Regional Information Networks (IRIN)

|Integrated Regional Information Networks (IRIN), Pakistan: Fresh displacements in Khyber Agency, 5 April 2012, available at: http://www.refworld.org/docid/4f83db4f2.html [accessed 1 June 2016]
|This is not a UNHCR publication. UNHCR is not responsible for, nor does it necessarily endorse, its content. Any views expressed are solely those of the author or publisher and do not necessarily reflect those of UNHCR, the United Nations or its Member States.
It is not the first time that Wasim Khan and his family of five from Pakistan's Khyber Agency near the border with Afghanistan have been displaced.
In 2010 they had to flee their village [Meri Khel] because of fierce fighting between government troops and militants as well as between rival militant groups battling each other for control of the strategically significant area.
"At that time we stayed away from home for five months. This time who knows how long it will be," Khan told IRIN.
Khan is back in Peshawar, capital of Khyber Paktoonkhwa Province. He has registered with the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) so he can collect food and other aid to which internally displaced persons (IDPs) are entitled, visited two potential employers in search of work as a van driver, and enrolled his two older children at the same private school they attended last time they were displaced.
A 30 March press release by UNHCR said that since January this year, more than 100,000 people have been displaced, mainly from the Khyber Agency, as a result of a "recent increase in the intensity of fighting".
The IDPs say they have been forced to flee either due to the proximity of fighting or because of warnings to evacuate by the authorities.
According to UNHCR, many people are arriving in Jalozai Camp near Peshawar, which houses 62, 818 people and is now the largest IDP camp in the country. Before 17 March it had 47,134 IDPs.
"On 29 March we registered around 13,000 people, the highest number of IDPs registered in one day since the start of the new influx. Most of the people moving out of Khyber Agency are opting to live with friends and relatives. To ensure a smooth registration process we have, along with the government, set up two additional registration desks for off-camp IDPs," UNHCR spokesperson Duniya Aslam Khan told IRIN.
There have been several waves of displacement from northern parts of Pakistan since 2004. The biggest exodus, according to UNHCR, was in 2009 when over two million were displaced.
No income
"This is the third time I am leaving my home near Bara [town in the Khyber Agency] Gul Jan, 50, told IRIN. He said his farm, where he grew vegetables and kept goats, had been "ruined" because of neglect, and the small shop he ran "is closed right now". This leaves him with no income.
The disruption of his children's education also worries him. "I have not sent my three sons or my daughter to school since we came to Peshawar early in March. I really cannot find money to send them to a private school and the government-run schools are not worth going to. We are very worried that they are missing out on their education," he said.
Those with no close relatives find it difficult to live with people they barely know.
"The house of my school-fellow from Khyber, with whom we are living, is small. I feel we are a burden on them since there are seven members in my extended family, and there is no privacy for the women," said Rahbar Khan, 25. However, he believes life in a camp like Jalozai would be "even less dignified" with many strangers living close by.
Other IDPs worry about family members still in Khyber. They also wonder when they will be able to return. But, as Gul Jan said, "people continue to run away, there is intense fighting and there is just no way of saying when we will return to our villages or when our lives will be back to normal again."

Hello all
I have read all the Threads about this Topic already, but for me it is not clear how to handle this "well known". right now i would testing it but at the end i am not sure what will happen at all.
I am Talking about listing resources for ALL USERS at my SERVER using different DOMAINS by setting this recommendation....
zmprov md [companydomainA] zimbraGalInternalSearchBase ROOT
zmprov md [companydomainB] zimbraGalInternalSearchBase ROOT
zmprov md [companydomainZ] zimbraGalInternalSearchBase ROOT
zmprov mcf zimbraGalInternalSearchBase ROOT
i wanted to try this first in a test environment but i did not found the time till now to check it out in Detail.
When all users now see the resource for example in the free/busy view at a meeting creation, and the user is from another domain, does all workflows work correctly ?
for example:
User1 has the Main Address @companydomanZ.com
User2 has the Main Address @companydomanX.com
resourceA has the Domain @companydomainA.com
resourceB has the Domain @companydomainB.com
Info about the need
We use to share the calendar from this resource to the user with an distribution list belonging, which works great for sharing the resource accross the domain.
But the free/Busy listing is handled differently as you know so the Domain separation comes up.
1. The user has its share from the resource to see the calendar --> OK
2. the user wants to book it and list it at the meeting creation view to list the resources --> NA because he does not belong to the domain where the resource belongs too.
I already tried to create an ALIAS Adress for the resource to make it visible in the other domain so created
email@example.com --> this has no effect
I tried to give the user an Alias Address to companydomainA.com to see if the user gets access because now it is part of the Alias domain. I thought this could theoretically work because
it Works in the area of personas aso... But it seems its different to this.
So i ended up with the recommendations of changing this variable mentioned above, but what are the side effects and is this the best way to solve my problem?
I understand that when setting this i cannot hide it from other domains anymore cause its open for all then ....
Answers needed:
1. what happens when the user can list because of this searchoption with the workflow then (does it work clean) that the resource can be booked then aso ? or is just the listing worked
2. Is there a better way to solve the hole thing at all, maybe i stuck in a one way thinking .. ?
3. When i change this variable, is it immediately taking effect or does it need an ldap update ?
4. when i give a user an alias address what are all the effects at user rights level in a multi domain environment ? i was not able to find the right docu for answering my question to myself.
thanks in advance winston

Hi All,
Im a sys admin for a medium sized company (around 60 staff). Currently we
are running kerio as our mailserver with local pst's. Our staff do move between the 2 offices we have quite often, and also roam quite a bit. Basically im itching to move to a collaboration server such as Zimbra\exchange to ease the pain with having local PST's. Moving PST's constantly, users reaching the 2.0 GB limit etc etc. Exchange SP2 will now allow up to 70GB of stores.., thus for our sized company, allowing up to 1.2GB for each user with Standard Edition, instead of having to purchase Enterprise Edition. This..yes, is a great bonus. Still, If Zimbra can offer a similar feature rich, stable solution inc some support for $30 per mailbox - plus (very hopefully) a tool for migrating PST's gracefully, then im 101% sure..that the solution and costings, will FAR outweigh exchange. I can see thousands of sysadmin's who have very limited budget's, yet want to provide their staff with an exchange like solution..smiling already.
And you will be suprised at actually how many medium sized business on the "brink" of needing an exchange like solution there are, that have a limited budget, yet want to move forward. This product will hopefully fill that void.
Great work guys...keep me updated on a PST migration tool, and final - (non beta?) release.

Custom Classic Trucks - Goodguys West Coast Nationals 2005Written by on November 1, 2005 Pleasanton Was A Roasting Experience . . . Roast! Roast! Roast!
The general characteristics of the Goodguys West Coast Nationals are somewhat predictable. The editorial clich of bigger and better is a given. The fairgrounds will be crowded and shade will be protected like a mama hen herding her newborn baby chicks. The warmer August temperatures in Pleasanton are also expected-with more than a little perspiration anticipated. We hope you'll forgive us, but the Goodguys West Coast Nationals 2005 was all of these things and more.
What was the more, you ask? We've been kicking off our enjoyable West Coast Nationals experience with the Danville Dukes car club for the past decade. Thursday we arrive in Danville around noon to visit the train museum and several dozen of the quaint shops lining Main Street. Around 2:30 p.m. we grab some late lunch on the street and watch with amusement as the forgetful locals moan and gripe about the parking citations they find on their windshields. Soon thereafter, several hundred street rods and custom creations cruise down Danville's main corridor and park face-out from the curb. For hours we wander up and down Main Street examining a neat variety of vintage iron from as far North as British Columbia and as far South as the Land of LA.
Friday is a busy work/play day; we get to the Alameda County fairgrounds a bit excited to see what's new and unusual. We're looking for good magazine feature material, and for the first time this year, to select 10 vintage trucks for Custom Classic's Top Ten Trucks awards. It was a distinct pleasure to meet each of the owners we selected for an award. One neat pleasure was seeing the red '33 Ford roadster pickup from Oregon that was a Street Rodder magazine project from 1982. Now owned by Brad and Tamera Miller of Springfield, Oregon, the smooth red roadster pickup was originally built by Bob Schoonoven and his friends. Seeing this pickup was like seeing a high school classmate that you were (and still are) fond of.
Saturday the fairgrounds were jumping. Did I see a Buick-like smile on the Goodguys face? Even the Alameda fairgrounds become a little crowded when thousands of spectators begin ooohing and aaahing over the colorful field of modified vehicles. Lots of vintage rock 'n' roll music was pumped out over the decidedly mature crowd. On the positive side, we're encouraged to have witnessed plenty of younger car lovers who'll undoubtedly carry on our passion for vintage tin.
At the host hotel Saturday evening, my wife and I joined several hundred of Andy Brizio's faithful friends for dinner and to roast Andy. Brizios' buddies partied as they enjoyed an evening of humorous anecdotes on the subject of growing up a Brizio and topless traveling with "The Rodfather." Andy is limiting his cross-country touring only slightly for 2006, but is still happy to jump in his famous flamed roadster and attend street rod events anywhere in America. To join Andy, simply provide him a valid credit card number and he'll gladly serve as tour host, making all the travel and hotel arrangements.
Sunday morning the fairgrounds were still buzzing with activity, but there were slightly fewer spectators and more space to park as a number of vehicles returned home to avoid traveling in the midday heat. As we'd completed most of our editorial tasks, we took the opportunity to examine the 70-plus award winners and later joined them at the 2:30 drive-through awards ceremony (the winners drive through).
Shortly after the last Goodguys award was presented we drove east toward Interstate 5 South with warm and provocative thoughts of the past four days. Besides the approximately 2,500 vintage rods, there was the record-setting model-car contest, the swap meet plus cars for sale and arts & crafts exhibit, commercial toy town USA, and three buildings full of industry- oriented commercial vendors to consider.
There were also chances to win new cars-the giveaway hot rod was won by a lucky lady; retired high school librarian Timotheia Haag won the Goodguys/Hot Rods & Horsepower Dearborn Deuce Convertible. Haag and her husband are hot rod enthusiasts from Brookfield, Missouri.
With so much to do and see, the Goodguys West Coast Nationals was 10 pounds of fun packed in a five-pound weekend. Hope to see you all there again in 2006. Here are some of the sights we caught in our viewfinder.

About 80 participants were fortunate enough to be selected for an award. Winners were presented with a nifty plaque or custom-created trophy. Ron and Patty Nelson of Thousand Oaks, CA, own one of the CCT Top Ten Trucks. Here Ron pilots his exceptionally neat '40 Ford pickup through the Alameda Fairgrounds grandstand driveway.Someone in the John Cortese family of San Jose, CA, has owned this bright red '32 Ford closed-cab pickup since it was new. It now has every modern convenience including a Brizio-built body and chassis, plus a Sid Chavers leather interior. John says it's a lifelong project.Chris Hankins of Santa Rosa, CA, parked his sweet black-with-flames '49 Chevy pickup in the Homebuilt Heaven display area. Most of the custom fabrication and preparation was performed by Chris in his home garage.Here's another extremely neat '46 Ford pickup that displays well and has many modifications and improvements. Owned by Al and Mary Lou Reichmuth of Auburn, CA, the blue '46 Ford was another of the CCT Top Ten Trucks selections.Ruth and Harold Wiley's dark brown '47 Chevy pickup was selected as the West Coast Nationals candidate for the Goodguys Truck Of The Year 2005, which will be presented in Fort Worth, TX. The Wileys hail from Salt Lake City, UT.Perhaps the most popular big truck at this event was this custom olive-drab '40 Chevy COE mounted on a late-model Chevy dually chassis, owned by Alain Morec of Livermore, CA. We found New Junk very appealing as well and took enough photos for a future feature. Alain is seriously into working trucks as he manages his own towing business.We had just walked onto the fairgrounds when we were intrigued by something large and green from behind. It turned out to be Mark and Mary Novak's '48 Studebaker COE from Ventura, CA. More of these bigg'ns are getting the full hot rod treatment.
Giving a new meaning to "Let's Twist Again," Dan and Al Malfatti of Hayward, CA, like to twist the driveshaft of their potent, blower-motor-powered, '49 Chevrolet pickup. This purple pickup is also as pretty as a one-day-old pony.We love these softly rounded, early-'50s Studebaker pickups. This dark green '53 belongs to Janis and David Gomes of San Miguel, CA. Janis says she's a pickup-lovin' person and yes, it was her name written on the event window sticker. So we selected her Studebaker for a Top Ten Trucks award.Something fishy was going on as we checked for the owner of this glorious gold '54 Chevy pickup. Entry number 2734 was for Mike Mitchel's '32 Ford from Stockton, CA, according to the event window sticker. So Mike, you got some 'splainin' to do!One more of our Top Ten Trucks selections cruising through the awards ceremony was this Creamsicle orange-over-white '53 Chevy pickup that belongs to James A. Gomes of Lemoore, CA. The Chevy has a few nice modifications, including a bed cover, custom running boards, one tilt-forward frontend and Air Ride suspension. Tasty!As we were checking out this closed-cab highboy pickup owned by Craig Wallace of Nevada City, CA, we noticed his light gray'34 Ford pickup with 350ci V-8 and five-speed trans had been selected for a Cool Commercial award. Yep, it's cool!James Martin of Fremont, CA, hauls a matching horse trailer behind his burgundy '36 Ford pickup, which wears wide, white rubber on pale yellow wire wheels. The straight little pickup has a built '39 Ford Flathead engine and trans and easily manages to stay ahead of the thoroughbred horse.The friends and family of Andy and Sue Brizio gathered at the host hotel Saturday evening to roast "The Rodfather." It was all in good fun. Andy is in semi-retirement but ready to take a group of gotta-drive-em types on a cross-country trip at the drop of a credit card.This yellow '41 Chevy pickup was a beauty-and sitting in the awards area on Sunday morning. Owned by the Abbley family from Livermore, CA, the Moon Yellow pickup runs wide-whites, trim rings, and small caps, but packs a potent 350ci Chevy V-8 under the hood.

My boss reply 2 emails in succession to different people. ON replying the 2nd email, in the body of the email, rather than having the body of the 2nd email, it contains the contents of the body of the 1st replied email. Very very bad for confidentiality. Unfortunately I could not reproduce it as it is an rare ocassion.
Need to reply in succession for that to happen. Did you all have this problem before? Is that an indexing problem? How can I check it? Also is it solved in 3.1.2?

Mount for 16" SCT
Posted 07 October 2012 - 04:07 PM
I am starting a project to fix a Meade 16" SCT telescope in Mongolia. The telescope was originally donated to Mongolia almost 10 years ago from the Lunar Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona. They we're planning to use it for follow up photometric monitoring of asteroids.
Unfortunately few months after the installation it was struck by lightening and now when you turn it on the mount starts moving by itself, totally uncontrollable. We have called the 'best' electrical engineer in Mongolia and disassembled everything, didn't find anything burned or obviously damaged, so put it back together, but still doing crazy stuff when turned on.
So we decided to replace the whole mount. It was originally installed with the Meade fork mount on a permanent pier. Couple of days ago I gave a call to Meade, but they have told me that they don't sell mounts for 16" separately... so I am looking for other solutions.
Do you guys know anybody planning to sell his or her Meade fork mount? (I guess its very unlikely) or do you have any suggestions on what kind of mounts we shall purchase?
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated!

Anybody has suggestions on how to install the telescope on the GEM? I am guessing we need few solid dovetails?
Posted 07 October 2012 - 05:52 PM
Posted 07 October 2012 - 06:39 PM
I'll see if I can find links to some others. These are WAY out of my budget so I'm not real familiar with them. Very expensive options I believe.
Posted 07 October 2012 - 07:07 PM
Posted 07 October 2012 - 07:16 PM
Have you talked to Meade about repairing your current mount. That may be less expensive than a new mount.
Posted 07 October 2012 - 07:22 PM
I am far from the 'best' electrical engineer at anything but that's the path I took...
Posted 08 October 2012 - 01:24 AM
Posted 08 October 2012 - 04:27 AM
just as a note, shipping from U.S. to Mongolia through China turns out to be cheaper than shipping from Europe to Mongolia; even though the latter is a shorter geographic distance.
Meade could probably fix the mount, unfortunately as far as I understood the factories that do provide such services only located in U.S. So shipping the broken mount to U.S. and shipping back after fixing would cost way more than a new mount. We also don't have any guarantee that the Meade factory will be able to fix the issue, not to mention for a lower price.
So basically I think I will have to buy a mount from U.S. or Japan. AP 1600 GTO is certainly one of the top choices, and I have sent them an email for an estimate. I will also look into EM 500 if they have any available to ship straight from Japan to Mongolia.
The question now arising is, how people attach SCT's to the GEM? I am guessing through dovetails? I think similar large aperture celestron SCTs come with the dovetail, but has anybody tried attaching large Meade SCT to the GEM?

I had the same dilemma as you with my Meade 16" LX200GPS. The electonics on the forks are very delicate. The slightest electrical short will just ruin them.
Meade has a horrible policy regarding selling parts. I am convinced that their belief is that the public is dumb and would not know what to do to fix their equipment. But that is only my opinion.
After having the electronics go bad twice, I gave up on Meade for repairs. I sold off the forks and purchased a used Astro Physics AP1200 mount. That mount was superb and had no problems carrying my 16 Meade along with a Takahashi FSQ 106 riding atop it.
As for mounting, I used the AP saddle (DOVELM162)
and a Losmandy dovetail with Parallax Rings.
The tracking was just impeccable with that mount. Today the AP1600 would easily handle this!

Good luck!!

I have one last thing to ask you all. I recently found out that before even the lightning strike, the mount's (original Meade fork that comes with 16") servo motors had some issues with the very cold temperature of Mongolia. At the observatory it gets down to below -40C easily during the winter times (oct-mar) and we want to make sure our new equipment survives this climate.
Anybody has any experience using AP1600GTO or other mounts in very cold temperatures?
Posted 14 October 2012 - 04:40 AM
Posted 14 October 2012 - 03:11 PM
I have been in touch with a guy from AP and he has told me that I need following items in order to use the mount with the 16"SCT. What do you guys think? anything missing or anything extra?
German EQ mount with low-T grease (AP1600GTO)
Dovetail plate (LMDM16)
Saddle (DOVELM162)
Power Supply (13.8V DC)
Adapter to Pier (1612FSA)
Counterweights (4 x 18 lb)
Shipping (DHL estimate for 200 lb box)
I can afford few extra things if they're really necessary, but the most important thing is I need to have literally everything, all small pieces, parts and bolts with me there next summer. It is hard to find things in Mongolia, so if I don't have everything with me it might delay the work significantly.
Posted 14 October 2012 - 07:19 PM
I don't see how you could attach the dovetail plate to the Meade 16" OTA..
Posted 14 October 2012 - 08:44 PM
Posted 14 October 2012 - 10:21 PM
I would opt for the Parallax rings with dovetails to increase the stability of the scope.
Only down side is added weight, not that it would be a problem for the AP1600 mount.
Posted 14 October 2012 - 11:21 PM
They decided to go with the Sidereal Technologies servo motors and GOTO system instead, and that is also an option for you.
Both the Software Bisque and Sidereal Technologies GOTO systems use servo motors, which I believe are greatly superior to stepper motor solutions.
At any rate, either solution would be a much cheaper and more painless upgrade path than replacing the entire mount.
I hope that helps.
Posted 15 October 2012 - 12:29 AM
Using the radius blocks and dovetails seems like a lot of weight would be held with small screws and an aluminum casting.
I would opt for the Parallax rings with dovetails to increase the stability of the scope.
Only down side is added weight, not that it would be a problem for the AP1600 mount.
I have used radius blocks on Meade 16" SCT's a fair number of times without incident. There are threaded holes for them already in the OTA. It makes for a very strong mounting solution. The Astro-Physics and Losmandy radius blocks and dovetail bars for Meade's 16" SCT's are big and beefy.
Be advised that the Classic LX200-16 OTA's are slightly longer than the LX200GPS-16's and the dovetail bars are different lengths. The radius blocks are the same. Make sure to get the right bar.
If you have a Classic LX200-16, you also have the option of sending your existing electronics to Ron Sampson in the USA for repair. Ron has been repairing the electronics for the Classic LX200's for a fair number of years and a typical repair is about $350, the last time I checked. Ron does not have a web site but he can be reached at email@example.com
There is also a Yahoo group dedicated to the LX200-16 scopes (both Classic and GPS) and you might benefit from checking it out.
The Astro-Physics 1200GTO and 1600GTO are both excellent mounts and you wouldn't go wrong with either of those choices. Astro-Physics has top-notch customer support and they will sell you whatever parts you might need in the future.
I am not a fan of Software Bisque Paramounts. Proprietary software and proprietary/undocumented serial commands.
If you go with a GEM mount, I would certainly use radius blocks and dovetail bars instead of going with rings.
I hope this helps!
Posted 15 October 2012 - 01:05 AM
But there are couple of other equipments where in the future we could do upgrades as you're suggesting. I will let you know!
TxStars, thats what is feels like I agree with you. But those small bolts and screws could be just fine, check the attached picture, it shows the 16" sct ota on the fornax mount.

There are couple of old russian otas of ~12" size, where we could use the fork mount in the future for just public EP viewing. I will definitely keep in mind your suggestions on that.
And thanks for the heads up on the difference between the classic and gps versions of the 16". Ours is about 10 years old, I am sure it is the classic one.

If you look close at the picture you will see that they used "Rings" on the 16"

CHAMPS Teams up with Kiwanis Miracle League
DES MOINES, Iowa -- Student-athletes from Iowa State's swimming and diving team and softball squad have become "Angels in the Outfield" for baseball players with special needs.
Members of Iowa State's CHAMPS/ Life Skills program teamed up with the Kiwanis Miracle League Sept. 20 at the Field of Dreams located across from Principal Park. The Field of Dreams is a rubberized, smaller-scale baseball field that allows special needs children to move more easily.
Players who needed help with hitting, catching, fielding, or throwing the ball were paired with a "buddy" who provided encouragement and assistance as needed.
Stressing safety first, 42 student-athletes enthusiastically played baseball with their special needs player and encouraged them to have fun.
"Getting to play in the Miracle League was a great opportunity," said softball player Amanda Bradberry. "It was a lot of fun to be paired with a child and be their buddy throughout the game. As an elementary education major, it was great to get the opportunity to interact with those kids. It seemed like they enjoyed having us there and it was great for us."
The Kiwanis Miracle League's mission is to offer accessible recreational opportunities for children with special needs so they can participate in an organized baseball league.
The Kiwanis Miracle League not only provides special needs kids with the opportunity to play baseball, it also engages central Iowa in their effort by providing chances for organizations and individuals alike to participate financially and through volunteer opportunities.
Currently, there are 180 Miracle League Organizations across the country including Puerto Rico. Construction has been completed on 80 rubberized fields nationally. Another 100 fields are under construction. The Miracle League is proud to serve over 25,000 children and young adults with disabilities. The Kiwanis Miracle League at Principal Park is the first baseball/ softball field in Iowa for children with special needs.
