WHEELING - Famed trans-Atlantic pilot Charles A. Lindbergh once dined there, and Gen. John "Black Jack" Pershing was a distinguished member.
The history of the Wheeling Consistory No. 1 of the Scottish Rite dates back to 1876. Its current home, the Scottish Rite Cathedral, has stood at 83 14th St. since 1915.
Today, state Sen. Jack Yost, D-Brooke, serves as sovereign grand inspector general for the Scottish Rite Southern Jurisdiction Orient of West Virginia, and he has placed his office in the Wheeling building.

State Sen. Jack Yost, D-Brooke, also sovereign grand inspector general for the Wheeling Valley of the West Virginia Scottish Rite Masons, shows a photo of a large class of new inductees into the organization taken in 1916.
As SGIG, Yost oversees the seven Scottish Rite "valleys" in the state, which include those in Wheeling, Parkersburg, Charleston, Huntington, Bluefield, Morgantown and Martinsburg.
Yost is the first SGIG to come from the Scottish Rite's valley of Wheeling since 1889.
He recently held his unofficial swearing-in as state senator at the Scottish Rite Cathedral in Wheeling.
Yost said an original Scottish Rite Cathedral was built on Market Street in 1907, but it was destroyed by fire in 1915. The current Scottish Rite Cathedral was constructed on 14th Street.
"It's walls and floors were built of solid concrete so this one wouldn't burn down," he noted.
The building is named for Dr. William Morris, who served as the second SGIG in West Virginia in the late 1800s.
The first SGIG was Odel Squire Long.
The cathedral's biggest day was Aug. 4, 1927, when it hosted a reception and banquet for Lindbergh.
Lindbergh was the first person to fly solo non-stop across the Atlantic Ocean, and he came to Wheeling as part of a tour promoting his feat.
Nearly 100 years after its construction, the cathedral continues to stand but is in need of renovation, Yost acknowledged. Members are working to upgrade the television and social areas, where they most often congregate.
But the Scottish Rite has far fewer members than it once did, and many rooms on the upper floors of the seven-story building largely go unused. One of them - a large grand ballroom - seldom sees activity.
Another impressive room is the library, filled with historical volumes and set off by dark woodwork.
"We just need to get our building back up to par," Yost said. "Folks are donating their time to renovate because it really is a hidden jewel in Wheeling."
The Scottish Rite encourages its members to do the right thing - improve themselves and help their communities. The organization supports efforts in speech therapy, and the Wheeling valley works frequently with the Augusta Levy Learning Center.
"We want Wheeling to do more to help children," Yost said.

The now-$30 billion pizza segment is on a path of steady growth and has shown resiliency since the height of the Recession in 2009.
However, much of the segment's growth has come from the top five companies — Pizza Hut, Domino's, Papa John's, Little Caesars and Papa Murphy's — while No. 6 through 10 (CiCi's, Sbarro, Chuck E. Cheese, Round Table and Godfather's) dropped.
"Those smaller companies can't invest as much, particularly for advertising. And in recent years, that's led to the big getting bigger and the smaller chains getting smaller," said Darren Tristano, executive vice president of market research firm Technomic, during his keynote address Sunday at the North American Pizza and Ice Cream Show in Columbus, Ohio.
Tristano broke his "State of the Pizza and Ice Cream Industries" presentation into categories including consumer mindset, industry players to watch, pizza consumer demands and menu trends.
Consumer mindset
Although economic recovery is well underway, consumers remain cautious with their spending. However, according to Tristano, they feel better about their own situations and less consumers admit they're struggling.
"The better news is consumers are more optimistic about 2013 by about 4 percent more than they were last year at this time," he said.
Consumers' primary concerns are gas prices (27 percent), which Tristano said could provide a boon for pizza delivery places, grocery costs (26 percent), and their own financial health (26 percent).
"Grocery prices are rising faster than restaurant prices, so for consumers, restaurants are now actually a better value," Tristano said.
While consumers are more optimistic for the New Year, operators have the opposite mentality. The big concern is commodity prices.
"This year we expect a big spike in beef, so we'll see more veggies and chicken, as well as operators who plan to take price increases. Fifty-four percent say they will raise their prices this year. They don't want to, but most will have to," Tristano said. He added that all eyes will be on McDonald's. As the chain bumps its value offerings from $1 to $1.29, it makes other brands more comfortable to inch up prices as well.
Tristano also pointed out that while sales are rebounding from the economic fallout, they're still well below pre-Recession levels. For example, the restaurant industry as a whole experienced 13.5 percent growth in 2007 versus 3.6 percent expected for 2013.
"It will likely take until 2020 to achieve 2007 levels," Tristano said. "But we're headed in a positive direction and that is better than a decline."
Health-halo descriptors
Tristano outlined emerging menu trends in the pizza segment, including a bigger focus on chicken as a topping, particularly as barbecue chicken and buffalo chicken offerings. Not only is chicken more cost effective as the price of beef rises, it is also adaptable.
He also said more pizzerias are experimenting with seafood toppings such as shrimp.
"Fresh toppings" requests have risen 6 percent since 2010. Diners also want a large quantity of toppings and cheese, a variety of toppings from which to choose, and new and innovative toppings.
Consumers are also seeking out more premium ingredients than they were in recent years.
"They want more health-halo descriptors such as all-natural, locally-sourced, healthier components like whole wheat crusts, organic, artisan, gluten-free," Tristano said. "This is good news because it means they're willing to spend more."
Other pizza menu trends include:
Off the menu, consumers want pizza available from a convenient location, good-tasting pizza and pizza at a value.
"Convenience is the primary traffic driver, but it won't provide a strong edge if you don't have a better-tasting pizza," Tristano said.
Pizza players to watch
Tristano pointed out some concepts that stick out for their differentiation, including Homemade Pizza Company, a take-and-bake brand that focuses on higher-end ingredients and a higher price point. The Chicago-based company goes after affluent customers, which makes it unique from Papa Murphy's in the growing take-and-bake space.
Pizza Fusion is another concept that Tristano said has ideal positioning at the moment because of its fresh, organic (healthy-halo) messaging. "They communicate a better for you, better for the environment message and they're really going after a lifestyle, which is what people want now," he said.
Consumers are gravitating to Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza because they increasingly want a coal-fired flavor, Tristano said. "It's a well-done pizza and it is a point of differentiation," he added.
Finally, Tristano said pizza is rapidly moving toward a fast casual format.
"We're starting to see a 'better pizza' category (similar to the 'better-burger' category created by Five Guys, Smashburger, etc.). These pizzas are made in 3 minutes and they're made to order and this is really an area pizza hasn't seen before, but it's what consumers want," he said. "This will be very strong especially at lunchtime."
Consumers are driving the emergence of "better pizza," artisan and gourmet concepts as they demand more bang for their buck.
"Value-conscious consumers are making judgments about pizza based on what they're actually getting," Tristano said. "Quality is more important than ever."

We have been doing a lot of motoring in calm, foggy conditions. This is what we can typically see (pretty much nothing beyond 100m). The lights visible thru the window are, left to right, the VHF/AIS, radar and GPS.
Thanks for the comments. At sea, I generally do receive the comments, but can't reply in line.
As to the location of the engine oil cooler, it sits between the engine block and the engine oil filter.
As to what factors to consider when deciding where to land in Greenland, well, I'm still deciding :). I had indefinite plans of going first to Nuuk, and our course has been basically straight for Nuuk. Being the biggest city in Greenland, Nuuk is the obvious best choice for repairs and provisioning. At the moment, it looks like we will have moderate southerly winds for the next two days (we have no wind now), so, given what will be a good tailwind, and the expected boost we will have from the West Greenland Current, we may bypass Nuuk and make the first port someplace farther up the coast.
if you meet Rick and Karen, tell them hello for me, they will probably recognise the boat.
Tue Jul 26 18:02:00 EDT 2011, Labrador Sea
It's not always like this in the Labrador Sea! Clear skies, light following winds, warm (if wearing thermal underwear) temperatures--very pleasant, and good conditions for taking pictures.

Mon Jul 25 10:02:00 EDT 2011, Labrador Sea
The day after getting the engine fixed, we picked up groceries, filled the water tanks and sailed off. The wind was perfect for sailing off the dock (instead of motoring off), so we cast off the lines and set the sails and sailed off.
We sailed away from the docks then beat our way out the entrance channel, tacking (turning the boat thru the wind so the sails go to the other side) every 3-5 minutes. The current was in our favor, which was good, as the tacks were not easy to do. Tacking the yankee jib was more difficult than before because instead of dragging the sail and sheets (ropes) across the smooth surface of the aluminium extrusion of the roller furler of the staysail/trinquette, it now dragged across a wire stay, so tended to get stuck. I can't think of any port in the Labrador Sea where I'd like to try getting furler parts, so we will live with it as it is--it is an inconvenience, not a major problem.
We had a crew change in Cartwright. Ryan got off the boat and Lin, a merchant marine officer, came aboard.
Sun Jul 24 10:02:00 EDT 2011, Cartwright, Labrador, Canada
(Long, technical)
Two weeks ago, as we sailed into Cartwright Harbor (pictured). A few hundred metres away from the dock, we started lowering sails and prepared to start the engine to motor onto the dock. The engine oil level was unexpectedly high. The oil was black, so I figured the fuel pump had leaked fuel into the crankcase, as I saw no signs of water. We started the engine and motored onto the dock.
After shutting down the motor, the oil was checked again, and now it looked like a chocolate milkshake, a sure indication that water was mixed into the oil. The oil was changed and the filter washed out with fuel. I'd bought a dozen "compatible" oil filters at the auto parts store in Rimouski a month ago and hadn't used any of them yet, so hadn't yet realized that none of thembe fit the engine. So, I needed to find the source of the water getting into the fuel and change the oil and filter enough times to clear all the water out (when water mixed with antifreeze mixes with the oil, the antifreeze prevents the oil from lubricating the bearings and it soon destroys the engine if the engine is continued to be run). No suitable oil filters were available in Cartwright.
The engine in Issuma is made by John Deere, but marinized (mostly this means adding a heat exchanger and a seawater pump so seawater cools the antifreeze/water that the engine is cooled with) by Baudouin. As Baudouin is in France, with only one dealer in Canada (in Montreal), versus John Deere being the real manufacturer of the engine and having many dealers all over the place, including Newfoundland, I figured they would be the best place to have a new oil cooler and head gasket (the two possible ways for the engine water/antifreeze to get into the oil) sent from.
I called up the John Deere dealer from the payphone in the store (no cellular service here) and ordered the parts. The John Deere dealer needed the serial number of the engine to get the correct oil cooler. Unfortunately, when Baudouin marinized the engine, they REMOVED the serial number plate from the engine, putting their own serial number plate in its place. I had a service manual for the engine, which said there were three possible oil coolers, and had pictures of each type. I emailed a copy of the relevant page of the service manual to the John Deere dealer, and he thought he could get the right one based on that.
The oil filters took six days to arrive, as the dealer thought they would be best shipped to Goose Bay by air and then transferred to something else to get to Cartwright. After a few days, everyone in Cartwright knew we were at the dock, waiting for parts, and people helped us out. Blair Gillis and Innu Mikkun airlines got the parts and put them on a charter flight that was going to Cartwright. Then I was able to change the oil and filter several times and determine that the problem was the oil cooler.
The oil cooler, which had to be sent from Ontario, arrived after several more days. Unfortunately, it was not the same type as the old one, so didn't fit. Knowing there was a machine shop in Goose Bay (a 5 hour drive), I hitchhiked to Goose Bay, got a part modified at the machine shop the next day, and hitchhiked back. Several more hours of installing the oil cooler and replacing hoses (they needed to change size to work with the new oil cooler) and the engine was running properly.
have a nice trip to Greenland

When the inner jib stay came down, part of the roller reefing broke. While I might be able to fix the roller reefing gear, I have one more of these units aboard controlling the yankee jib (outer jib), which I'm more interested in keeping spare parts for than I am in using for this sail. This sail, the inner jib (or trinquette or fore-staysail) rarely gets reefed--it is either set fully or furled (when it gets windy, I am using the storm jib). So I decided to convert it to a hanked-on sail.
In the picture, Jordan is sewing webbing into the sail to hold shackles, which we are using as hanks (can't buy hanks here) to attach the sail to the stay. The webbing was cut from spare sail ties, and, for strength, it is both sewed and glued (with '5200' polyurethane adhesive sealant) in place.
Sun Jul 17 19:52:20 EDT 2011, Labrador Sea
We left Black Tickle on a quiet morning, motoring out of the still harbor and
away from the coast until the wind picked up enough to sail. The piece of ice in the photo was fairly close to the shore.
I'd been paying a lot of attention to the weather forecasts. Computer programs made their guesses, the National Weather Service made their guesses, Environment Canada made their guesses, and I looked at all these and made my guesses. We were all wrong :).
What was expected to be a brisk reaching wind turned into a mere slog dead to windward in F4-6 seas for a little over a day. We dodged several growlers and bergy bits in the intermittent rain and fog. The forecasts had now changed to be another day of headwinds to 30 knots. We were sailing against the south-flowing Labrador current, and progress was slow when, during a gybe, the inner jib (trinquette) refused to come across.
A quick check up forward showed the stay was no longer attached to the mast. We got the other sails down so we would be heading downwind, and then brought the stay and sail (it was a roller-reefed sail) onto the deck. It seemed that the cotter pin that holds the clevis pin that holds the stay (wire) in place had sheared off. We got the sail off and cleaned up the deck, then changed course and sailed and motorsailed towards Cartwright, which was only about 130 miles back from where we were.
As we got closer to the coast, the wind became quite favorable, the sun came out and we had a pleasant sail to within a few hundred metres of the dock. There we went to start the engine to motor onto the dock, and that began the John Deere Saga, which is the topic of another post.
is there anything wrong between Issuma and the Labrador sea?
I hope you have left again
Persevere!! Don't let some Labradorian water-witch hex get you down!! :D
Any idea how long before you return to this side of the pond?
I'm still in Cartwright, and hope to finish the engine story very soon.
Thanks very much for the offer to ship parts, shipping to here is the really difficult part of that, but thanks anyway.

The harbor of Black Tickle. Issuma's masts are visible to the left of the red fishing boat. A melting iceberg is in the background.
We spent a pleasant day in Black Tickle, resting, looking around, talking to people, and refilling the airtime on the satellite phone (this actually took most of the day). Black Tickle has a population of about 200 people, a crab processing plant and several fishing boats that operate out of the harbor. There are no roads to the island Black Tickle is located on...the ferry comes weekly.
From Black Tickle, we sailed north northeast.
.... map is working !!!
Most towns in Canada have public docks, where any boat that can fit can tie up (generally for free) for up to 72 hours or so. The public docks are not floating, and have no services (ie electricity/water/showers), but provide great short-term docking facilities in places that don't have enough transient traffic to justify marinas. The public docks are aimed mostly at commercial traffic, so have black rubbing strips or large tires for boats to lie against, which aren't compatible with all sailboats.
In places where there are marinas, the rate tends to be about $1.50-$2.00/foot/night (oddly enough, they charge by the linear foot, not by the metre).

During a visit to Meridian, Congressman Gregg Harper touched on an area of concern for many Mississippians and that is immigration.
"We are also going to have major discussions on what's going to happen on immigration issues in the time to come," Harper said. "Look for Marco Rubio to probably be the leader on that discussion. You're already seeing that and if anything originates, it will originate on the Senate side."
Harper says that will impact a lot of the businesses and industry because of how it will be dealt with. Harper says Mississippians are also concerned about spending, the deficit and debt ceiling.
"You know, I don't know about y'all, but in your house you get in a little trouble if you spend more than you make," Harper said. "In Mississippi, we've been blessed with great leadership in all levels of government and guess what, we have a balanced budget."
Harper doesn't joke around when it comes to talking about the nation's stimulus bill. He tells Newscenter 11 it could have been a lot better and that Americans really didn't get the bang for their buck.
Harper has served as the U.S. Representative for Mississippi's third district since 2009.

Installing Brakes & Suspension Into Barracuda Resto Project - Driving Foundation Part 2: - Invasion Of The '67Written by on March 1, 2003 Contributors: Muscle Car Restorations Suspension And Brake Details On The Power Tour Barracuda
In the December '02 issue, we introduced you to a '67 Barracuda constructed by Muscle Car Restorations of Chippewa Falls, Wisconsin. In that first installment, we displayed the car that we began with-a '67 convertible that would be considered a solid driver.
This series outlines what is necessary to build a car that wins show trophies and, at the same time, is routinely driven and can perform at the drags well beyond expectations.
Of all three facets-driving, showing, and performing-driving gets top billing with this Barracuda. Our goal is to present you with a challenge: Prepare your Mopar for the '03 installment of the Hot Rod Power Tour. Details of the event are forthcoming, but imagine with us, if you will, Mopars showing up in force and invading the Hot Rod Power Tour.
To simply be on the Power Tour is one thing, but to have so many Mopars that the Hot Rod staff calls it an invasion is our goal. Yes, for one bright and shining week in late May, the Mopars will rule.
In this second installment, we'll show you how to build a car that is enjoyable to drive and stops reliably, thanks to a supple suspension, which was reconstructed using all new components from Performance Suspension Technology. Additionally, the original 10-inch drum brakes were discarded in favor of a reliable combination from Stainless Steel Brakes.
Follow along as we outline these details and further introduce the Invasion of the '67 Barracuda.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
One call to Performance Suspension Technology was all that was necessary to acquire a Super Front-End Kit for the '67 Barracuda. The kit includes two upper ball joints (large, 10-inch drum variety), two lower ball joints, two inner tie-rod ends, two tie-rod adjusting sleeves, one idler arm, two upper A-arm cam-and-bolt kits, and control-arm bumpers. A full complement of PST's Polygraphite(r) bushings is also supplied for the control arms (four upper inner, four lower inner), the strut rod (two Polygraphite; some pre-'65 applications use OE-type bushings), the stabilizer links (two Polygraphite) and the sway-bar end-link kits (2-Polygraphite). For a complete list of components included in PST's kits, visit them online at www.p-s-t.com.Our original upper-control arms are the 10-inch drum-brake variety, which accommodate the larger upper ball-joint spindles. This is critical, as 9-inch drum-brake control arms need to be changed for the SSBC front disc-brake conversion.Here, one of the guys at MCR installs the strut rod using Polygraphite bushings. Note that the engine is in place. We'll bring you the complete drivetrain installation.With the upper and lower control arms in place, MCR is ready to reinstall the 10-inch drum-brake spindle. Note the position of the caster/camber eccentric washer. The PST kit includes new cam and bolt kits. Further fine-tuning will be necessary, but this approximate position gets us in the ballpark for our caster setting.The early-style spindle is often an obstacle on disc-brake installations. However, if you have 10-inch drum brakes, Stainless Steel Brakes' PN A153 kit for nonpower applications is a bolt-on. The billet steel plate is provided; it bolts directly to the 10-inch drum-brake spindle-a provision for bolting on the calipers. SSBC is currently developing a power disc-brake conversion kit for use with their FX4 Force 10 four-piston caliper. The Force 10 caliper conversion for nonpower applications is available as PN A-153-2.The SSBC front disc-brake rotor/hat is an 11-inch diameter one-piece "Unicast" design. The rotor offers clearance for most 14-inch-diameter Mopar wheels and is available in both 5x4-inch and 5x4.5-inch bolt patterns.PST was also our source for KYB Gas-A-Just shock absorbers for all four corners. The moderately priced gas shocks are a favorite among musclecar enthusiasts, thanks to the wide variety of applications available.Year One provided a new set of leaf springs. The PST-supplied spring eye Polygraphite bushing kits are shown here with the spring. We replaced the OE-style bushing with Polygraphite bushings to reduce deflection.The SSBC nonpower front disc-brake conversion kit comes complete with all hardware, including flex lines, rotor/hats, a pair of caliper mounting plates for large ball-joint 10-inch drum spindles, hard lines which must be bent to suit your application, 43mm four-piston SSBC calipers and pads, and a dual-reservoir master cylinder.
The complete front disc brake swap installed displays SSBC's fixed-mount caliper. The disc-brake pads can be sourced locally or through SSBC.The SSBC rear disc-brake conversion kit (PN A155) comes complete with 10.5-inch rotors, dust shields, caliper mounting plates, and hard lines, which must be bent to suit your application. The calipers are also equipped with emergency brakes.New emergency-brake cables were sourced from Year One. No modifications were necessary for use with the SSBC kit.The emergency-brake hardware, including the supplied e-brake cable bracket, attaches to the caliper mounting bracket. The only fabrication required is a mount for the rubber brake line.

Repeating a theme that he frequently touched upon during his 2008 election campaign, President Barack Obama has once again referenced video games as a metaphor for academic underachievement.
In a Father's Day message published in Parade, Obama writes:
We need to set limits and expectations. We need to replace that video game with a book and make sure that homework gets done… We need to tell our sons, Those songs on the radio may glorify violence, but in our house, we find glory in achievement, self-respect, and hard work.
Interestingly, the Parade feature is Obama's third mention of video games in the last 10 days. On June 11th he told an audience in Wisconsin:
The world has gotten competitive. The Chinese, the Indians, they're coming at us and they're coming at us hard, and they're hungry, and they're really buckling down.
And they watch – their kids watch a lot less TV than our kids do, play a lot fewer video games, they're in the classroom a lot longer.
Last Monday the President mentioned games during a speech to the American Medical Association in Chicago:
[Preventive care] starts with each of us taking more responsibility for our health and the health of our children. It means… raising our children to step away from the video games and spend more time playing outside.

Reading Roundup: This Week's Top Literary Events
Each week, we offer a roundup of the best literary events in the city. All events are free and open to the public, unless otherwise noted. Want to submit an upcoming event for consideration? Go here.
The True Stories Lounge
Friday, September 9th, 7 pm, at the Make-Out Room (3225 22nd St.)
This new monthly reading by nonfiction authors at the Make-Out Room is a spiritual companion to the more fiction-oriented Writers with Drinks, and its organizers have been able to secure a lineup to rival WWD's for their initial outing. Readers include essayist Joyce Maynard (To Die For), novelist Alicia Erian (Towelhead), historian Adam Hochschild (King Leopold's Ghost), and Salon co-founder Gary Kamiya (Cool, Grey City of Love). Admission is $10 at the door, and as always, drinks will be available.
Paul Madonna (All Over Coffee)
Friday, September 9th, 7:30 pm, at the SF Zen Center (300 Page St.)
Paul Madonna's weekly cartoon All Over Coffee appears in the Chronicle and on the Rumpus, has been spun off into two books, and boasts near-iconic status among the artsy set in SF. Combining drawings of beautiful spots around the city (and occasionally around other cities) with philosophical musings, Madonna's art often feels like the work of chance, but hides a meticulous backbone. At this Zen Center lecture, he'll discuss his creative process and show examples of his work.

We're off to the DC area tomorrow morning through Tuesday. Staying in Arlington, VA - in the Crystal City area.
Anything we should/shouldn't see? Plan on spending a day at the Smithsonian. Also going to try to get out to Virginia Beach - I gather it's about a 2 hour drive from where we're at.
I'm sure there will be some neat happenings out there for Memorial Day - would be fun to see them.
I've been there twice yet both times were in HS, will appreciate this trip much more!
Any pointers would be appreciated.

Just got back from Baltmore /DC this weekend. A couple things to keep in mind:
Try to take the Metro as much as possible. ($6.50 for an all day pass).
A day for the smithsonian might be much. The air and Space museum and natural history musuems are good but the American History museum is closed til 2008 (some of the stuff is in the A&S museum temporarily). If you want art, hirshhorn and museum of art are good)
There is a big memorial day parade that goes around the Mall downtown DC on Monday. Be sure to check out the WWII memorial. Pretty cool.
Also, don't miss the Spy Museum.
FYI, Va Beach is about 4 hours from DC. If you're looking for a great beach, Ocean City is a better drive but depends on when you're traveling. Traffic is a b%&&*.
PM me with any questions as I lived out there for years.
I'm guessing you've already seen the Lincoln, Viet Nam, WWII memorials, and the Washington Monument and reflection pool? If so, I've got nothing. :)
Arlington Cemetery was neat too, but I would not call it a "must see".
We plan to see those again, benjay. The Mrs. has never been to the area and I want to see them again to boot.
Thanks for the info kindrgtncp! We did rent a car as we plan to hit a beach and would like to get up to Baltimore too, if we have time. While in the DC area, we'll avoid driving as much as possible. Nice to see an all-day metro pass isn't expensive.
NM. I just read your profile and saw you were a Cowgirls fan!!!
Ignore all recommednations.
Diehard Redskins fan...
I would have loved to have spent more time at the Smithsonian but I'm also a museum nerd. It's too bad the American History museum is closed as there's some really great stuff in there.

Yeah they have a few things in the East end of the 2nd floor of the A&S museum like R2-D2 and C-3PO and Dorothy's ruby slippers, etc.
If it's a long line, there's not much to wait for in my opinion.
I'm a history nerd...so I love the National Archives Museum (US Constitution, Cancelled check from the purchase of Alaska, etc, etc.).
Also, I'd recommend Ford Threatre if you haven't been there. They have an awesome museum in the basement which has the gun that shot Lincoln, the coat he died in, pillows and blankets from the bed he died in, etc, etc.
Maybe take in a Nationals game or make short drive to Baltimore to see Camden Yard?
I love DC...so much to do. I haven't been since high school and I'd like to get back there again soon. Have fun on your trip!
Silly Redskins, winning is for Cowboys. :)
We're not huge museum people, we prefer to be actively doing things or outdoors. However, I've heard so much about the Smithsonian and both times I was there before I didn't get to see it - so it's high on the list this time.

We hit inner Harbor for a day and did the Aquarium (It's been changed a lot in the past few years) and wandered the shops. It's worth the trip especally if you can time it with a gme at Camden Yards
Not a baseball fan, so we won't be going to any games - unless someone gives us tickets.
Ford's Theatre is very cool. I don't recall going into the museum in the basement though.
Aquariums...we DO like those. What's the one in Baltimore called?
Do they have frickin sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their frickin heads? Ill-tempered sea bass?
The Metro takes you all over and is clean and relatively safe. Schedule a lot of time to walk around the Mall and take in all the sights. Most museums and touristy items are close by (Washington monument, Lincoln monument, etc.). I loved the museums but they were not a lot better than what you would see at the Field Museum in Chicago, for example. It's just that there are a lot more things to see if you are a nut for that kind of thing.
The Mint and Pentagon were fun to see too.
I enjoyed having dinner at Georgetown. Funky shops and great restaurants.
Touring the Capital building was a lot of fun. If you don't mind lines, you can try to tour the White House. Not sure what the schedule is now, but you can check.
We took a tour down to Yorktown and Williamsburg. That was a lot of fun if you like history. They have original buildings in Williamsburg along with "living history" shops and events. Kind of like a Revolutionary War era Renaissance Festival. Yorktown is a historical area for the Revolutionary War and Civil War -- if you are interested in that. Jamestown is just a short drive away too...not a lot to see but fun if you like history (excavations, monunents, etc.).
I vaguely recall seeing the some or all of Yorktown/Williamsburg/Jamestown. I believe we were on George Washington's plantation if I recall correctly.
White House - reviews on that? Most of what I've heard is it wasn't worth it - you don't get to see much.
We didn't take the White House tour so I can't say if it is worth it.
We did take the Ford Theatre tour and that was interesting. Across the street is the hotel (Petersen House) in which Lincoln died. We stopped by there too. Schedule a couple of hours for that. If I remember right, the FBI building was close by and we toured that. It was a lot of fun. They had machine gun demos in the basement. Wow.

Eva Green Stands Tall In New Image From 300: Rise Of An Empire
Green's presence in the film is interesting, largely because Zack Snyder's film didn't really feature any women in battle.

300 Sequel May Finally Have Landed A Solid Title
Its been nearly five years since Zack Snyder blew all of our minds with the wildly visual and hyper-muscly 300. The stylized effects coupled with the arguably overused slo-mo effects really put Snyder on the map and sparked a ton of interest in the Frank Miller graphic novel. Naturally, since 300 made back its budget in just one weekend, the studio wanted a sequel and so did many fans.

Joel Edgerton Won't Be In The Planned 300 Prequel
It might be best for all involved. As was sort of hinted at, Edgertons not really the kind of guy prepared to open a film to the type of number Artemisia will need to hit to afford all of its costly CGI. Then again, those whove seen the actor in films like Animal Kingdom or Warrior know that hes far more capable of dramatic fare, and wed hate to see him wasted screaming This is Artemisia! in front of a green screen.

Joel Edgerton In Talks To Star In 300 Prequel Battle Of Artemisia
The first 300 was a surprise hit, which meant it didn't really need to have any stars because nobody had any expectations for it. But Battle of Aretemisia is a late-breaking attempt to turn 300 into a franchise, so it makes sense for them to seek out someone who is more of a name, even if it's a name as relatively new as Joel Edgerton

Noam Murro Could Ditch Die Hard 5 To Focus On The 300 Prequel
Director Noam Murro may have found himself in kind of a pickle as he makes his way up the blockbuster ranks. Since taking the reins of the 300 prequel Xerxes: Battle of Artemisia in mid-July, that production has apparently taken over his life and left him him no time

300 Sequel Battle of Artemisia Handed To Noam Murro
The follow-up film, which once was titled Xerxes and is based on Frank Millers upcoming graphic novel, shifts its focus to the Persian leader who was the antagonist in Snyders 2006 battle thriller. Snyder co-wrote the screenplay with his 300 collaborator Kurt Johnstad.

300 Sequel No Longer Called Xerxes, Almost Definitely Won't Be Directed By Zack Snyder
Beyond the new title and Canton's vague, all-but-guaranteed suggestion that Snyder won't be directing -- "I dont see us waiting two years to make the movie"-- there's not much news here. But the dozens of you waiting to return to the world of 300 without Snyder's direction

Guy Ritchie Will Not Be Directing The 300 Sequel Xerxes
Everyone was pretty surprised yesterday when it was announced that Zack Snyder would no longer be directing the 300 sequel, Xerxes and that, instead, Warner Bros. would be giving the project to Guy Ritchie. The story made a lot of sense, as Snyder will be busy directing the next Superman movie and the studio was quite pleased with what Ritchie did with Sherlock Holmes. As logical as the story was, though, it's not happening.

Guy Ritchie To Replace Zack Snyder On The 300 Sequel Xerxes
300 creator Frank Miller has written a sequel to his comic turned movie and Warner Bros. is dead set on turning that idea, Xerxes into a sequel. Until recently it seemed like if the project actually happened, 300 director Zack Snyder would be behind it. In fact back in 2010 Snyder actually said he was working on it. But now, out of the blue, it looks like things are going a different direction. Snyder is out, Guy Ritchie may be in.

Game 3 Is More Than Just A Hockey Game
On Tuesday night, the Nashville Predators and Vancouver Canucks will meet for a Game 3 contest in the Western Conference Semi Finals. The series is tied 1-1, so both teams will obviously be trying to win the game. But, this game is more than just a hockey game.
Sunday night, President Barack Obama announced that Osama Bin Laden had been killed in a strike by a United States special forces group. This is news that Americans and Canadians alike have been waiting for almost 10 years now.
Everybody remembers where they were on 9/11. For me, I was a 4th grade student at Inglewood Elementary in Nashville. I distinctly remember my mother picking me up after school and telling me what happened. I didn't fully understand until I got home. For the next few hours, I would be glued to my t.v. and watching the reaction to what was the greatest tradgedy to occur in my lifetime.
Now, the man responsible for that tragedy has been killed. That's why Tuesday night's game is more than just a hockey game. It's a chance to say thank you to all of the military men and women who fight to keep us safe.
Americans have been involved in this war since 2001. Don't forget, however, that our brothers and sisters in Canada have also been involved helping the United States out. Tuesday night is a chance for us to unite and give thanks to the men and women who continue to keep us safe.
I encourage all of you to sing both the American and Canadian national anthems at the top of your lungs on Tuesday night. And, be sure to show your appreciation when the Military Salute is given.
God Bless America. God Bless Canada. God Bless us all.

Researchers Are Developing Ways to Edit...
It Remains Extremely Challenging to Identify...
To Know Where Biosimilars Are Going,...
Traditional Tissue Biopsies Are Not Providing...
The sustained tissue damage in the brains and spines of people with multiple sclerosis (MS) may be caused by killer T cells misdirected by Tip-dendritic cells into adding to the formation of the inflamed lesions that characterize the disease, a study by researchers at the University of Washington found.
The study, published in Nature Immunology, concluded that the Tip dendritic cells can not only engulf oligodendrocytes or dead cells that form the myelin sheath around nerve cells, then present myelin peptides to CD4 + T cells—they can also load myelin peptides onto molecules for delivery to CD8+ T cells. The Tip dendritic cells spread the immune response from CD4+ T cells to CD8+ T cells, enabling the latter to recognize myelin protein segments from the oligodendrocytes. In effect, the CD8+ T cells respond to the oligodendrocytes by splitting them open and spilling their contents.
"Our findings are consistent with the critical role of dendritic cells in promoting inflammation in autoimmune diseases of the central nervous system," the researchers said in a statement. The dendritic cells, they added, may possibly wait in the blood vessels of normal brain tissue to activate T-cells that have infiltrated the blood/brain barrier.
Joan Goverman, UW professor and chair of immunology, and two colleagues, Qingyong Ji and Luca Castelli, showed for the first time that naive CD8+ T cells were activated and turned into myelin-recognizing cells by special cells called Tip-dendritic cells, derived from inflammatory white blood cells that accumulate in the brain and spinal cord during experimental autoimmune encephalitis originally mediated by CD4+ T cells. Under experimental autoimmune encephalitis, the oligodendrocytes also present peptides that elicit an immune response from CD8+T cells—something that would not happen under healthy conditions.
Investigators theorized that myelin-specific CD8+T cells might contribute to the ongoing destruction of nerve-cell endings in "slow burning" MS lesions, since a drop in inflammation accompanied by an increased degeneration of axons coincided with MS leaving the relapsing-remitting stage of disease toward a more progressive state.

Keep us updated on what sort of BHP you manage to get it sounds all very interesting Scotty
Do you care to mention who is designing and fabbing the piston? Scottie J
Aha!I see what you are doing there!Looks awesome!BTW, I wanted to say that if you want easier access to the lash adjuster on the rocker arms, you can drill and tap access holes in the tops of the rocker boxes above each of the adjusters, and plug them with brass pipe plugs. This allows you to grind down a narrow 12-point spanner to get in from the rocker covers and on to the lock nut, and you can put a screwdriver down thru the access hole, and make lash adjustments without removing the rocker arms.Everything is looking great!I have contacted the webmaster of a popular motorcycle blog(The Kneeslider), to see if we can get some coverage about your bike and this project out on the web. I haven't heard back yet, but I will try to get him to contact you for some info/quotes for the article, if he decides to write about this.

Roger Federer is ready for his Wimbledon assault - and has the proverbial bigger balls to prove it now.
The Roland Garros champ told a small group of reporters in London that he's feeling "more a man now" after winning in Paris despite his ethereal game deserting him at times during his run:
I feel like I've definitely become more a man now than in the last few years since I'm not scared of five setters anymore. I can handle the pressure.
I had to show my fighting spirit more than ever and it's nice to have had a chance to show those qualities because before everybody was just used to my dominance. It's good to know for myself that I can also do it differently.
True enough. Fed's dominance dance is done but he found a way to win when his game was teetering and the pressure was mounting after Rafa + Nole's stunning exits. By the final, it was seemingly a done deal.
So even though he comes in as the second seed, who does he think is the fave to take the Wimby crown?
I do think I'm the favorite actually, with the success I've had. I came close again last year. With no disrespect to the other players ... I feel like I've got the game, I've got the mental approach and I've got the experience to win at Wimbledon many more times.
Well, okay then.

Can someone tell me where FC3 and 4 installs libssl.so.4 from openssl rpm?
Unfortunately I don't have an Fedora box to look on.
-- Trev
Oh! I forgot to mention that I have installed M1 RHEL4 binaries on my SL-9.3 box and am trying to get
things working. It barfs on ldap start with the following:
zimbra@warhammer:~/bin> ./ldap start
db_recover: Finding last valid log LSN: file: 1 offset 28
/opt/zimbra/openldap/libexec/slapd: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
-- Trev
Look for one of the FC4 howtos - these address a similar problem, that's fixable, I believe, with a symlink.
Thanks Marc. After searching some more last night I figured it out.
Now that ldap starts up properly non of the other services do.
After running zmcontrol start or zimbra start it starts up ldap and the monitoring daemon but that appears to
be it.
A zmcontrol status shows the following only:
zimbra@warhammer:~/bin> ./zmcontrol status
Calling GetServiceInfoRequest (warhammer.engr.sgi.com)
RESPONSE: (Zimbra::Mon::serviceInfo)
ip 22.214.171.124
name warhammer.engr.sgi.com
Any ideas? Do I need to go through and configure each facility of zimbra? mysql, mta (postfix) config, tomcat, etc?
Thanks for the help!
-- Trev
Now that you've got ldap starting, you should probably re-install - that way, you'll get all of the server setup stuff done for you. Creating it by hand is possible, but it's not fun.
There is more then one issue when installing to sles or suse 9.x
First off, it appears you need to install Apache, and its related libs. Without it the rpm install fails. Once your install and setup are complete there are a couple of problems to work through.
To start you are missing a bunch of symbolic links. While there have been a couple of posting to this none seem very clear to me.
the root directory for all the libs you are missing on suse 9.3 is
/usr/lib Here you can find libcrypto.so.xxx libssl.so.xxx and libcurl.so.xxx
you need a symbolic link for each of these to /lib on the root of the file system. Not as some might think in the /opt/zimbra/lib.
Easiest way to work through ths issue is to hit the /etc/init.d/zimbra start and stop. The spell check will continue to fail as will the MTA. You need to follow the lib directions and create a link for each one that is missing.
Next spell check will fail one final time. There are again a set of libs you will need to link, as well as one missing rpm. This is only available on SLES 9 or Redhat so you will have to do a search and download. Install the RPM and create the link again in /lib for all to load.
Finally the MTA bounced and would not start. It did not like the hostname given during setup and wanted a switch in the /main.cf under postfix. Add a line to the bottom section of the main.cf with either mydomain - yourdomain or a myhost - yourhost.yourdomain.com
At this point yet another restart did not set all to right and I had to bounce the box. Once back up things run fine.
Hope that helps clear some of these issues up.
I've finally got it working after several trial and error scenarious. The mta config stuff was simple.
Now that I have things up and working, I'd like to migrate my old IMAP server running WUIMAP on another system on IRIX. Is the migration wizard *only* for migrating from MS Exchange?
-- Trev
You can use imapsync to import mail from an IMAP server. Check out this thread for information on IMAP migrations. Remember to use the --syncinternaldates flag!


text: Home Culture Fight Night: Black Women on Reality TV What are our young girls learning from the brawling, angry black women they see on reality TV? By: Jacque Reid Posted: March 3 2011 3:17 PM 0 Getty Images It's happened again. A video of teens fighting has gone viral. This time, police officials say the two girls met online and arranged to fight. The video, which one girl posted on Facebook, shows their meeting blow by blow, including one girl banging the other's head against the ground. What may be more disturbing are the congratulatory posts by classmates and other "friends" on the Facebook page of one of the girls As I watched this video, I was instantly reminded of recent episodes of Bravo's The Real Housewives series and VH1's Basketball Wives. These shows routinely show women angrily using profanity and physical violence as a means of conflict resolution. And because I am a black woman, I am extremely bothered when this type of behavior is displayed by black women, especially those who are well into their 30s or older. Despite the fact that one of us is now living in the White House and another just launched her own network, many around the world still see us as angry, short-tempered, immature and unsophisticated. Did you see that Pepsi Super Bowl ad? While the world is watching and labeling us, far too many of our younger sisters are taking in the same images and defining themselves. Journalist and author Sophia Nelson says the situation may be worse than we think. In her upcoming book, Black Woman Redefined: Dispelling Myths and Discovering Fulfillment in the Age of Michelle Obama, Nelson reveals the results of a study she conducted on black women and conflict resolution. What she found was that an alarming number of women ages 18-25 -- either in college or recent graduates -- use anger and violence to resolve their issues with each other. "They take honor in calling themselves thugs and gangsters," Nelson says. "They have no problem using profanity or even going to blows with other women. Their mentality is that this is acceptable." Nelson blames not only confrontational reality shows but also the black women who watch and contribute to their overwhelming success. "What is most dangerous is the level of acceptance ... that this is who we are ... angry and violent," she says. "So we accept that this is OK. We even think it's funny." And while black women are accepting it, everyone else is demanding it, like spectators eager to see blood at an ancient Roman gladiator death match. Look no further than recent headlines about Donald Trump's newest season of The Celebrity Apprentice, airing this Sunday on NBC. Promos show a number of out-of-control moments by participating celebrities. But the conflict making mainstream headlines is the one between Star Jones, formerly of The View, and NeNe Leakes, of The Real Housewives of Atlanta. This may be the Donald's biggest season of Apprentice yet. As for the show that made NeNe Leakes a celebrity, The Real Housewives of Atlanta broke a ratings record with almost 3 million viewers per episode on Bravo this season, making it the highest rated of the Housewives series. Those viewers aren't all black people. Even Demi Moore and her husband, Ashton Kutcher, have admitted to being hooked on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Nelson says that it is time for black women to redefine our image. "This is not who we are," she says. "We are not dealing with our own reality." Meanwhile, as reality TV ratings soar, too many of our young girls can't even grasp the concept of "ladylike" behavior. They struggle to respect each other and themselves. And how can we as adult women step in and lecture these girls on aggressive behavior, when we embrace that very behavior on television on a regular basis? Why in the world should they listen to us?
