Holiday CoffeeIn accordance with our annual tradition, we have created a unique coffee in honor of the winter holiday season yet again this year. Today's tasting we will be the first time that many of us get to try the 2014 iteration, and for fun, we've included the two single-origin coffees that comprise the blend in addition to the holiday coffee to encourage further flavor exploration.
Notes on the CoffeesHoliday coffee is an interesting product. Looking at it one way, we could use almost any coffee and the product would still probably sell pretty well given that a) apparently coffee is a popular gift item, b) the word "holiday" is prominently displayed on the packaging, c) the packaging is especially nice, and d) it's our company's only consistent foray in the realm of "coffee for a cause," which resonates with a different audience than our core customers. On the other hand, we want to use really delicious coffees as ingredients because we recognize that this will be many peoples' first taste of Counter Culture Coffee and we want hook them on taste, story and everything else we do well.
This year's holiday coffee combines two coffees from our favorite South American and African supplier cooperatives: Cenfrocafe of Jaén, Peru, and Yirgacheffe Coffee Farmer Cooperative Union (YCFCU) of Yirgacheffe, Ethiopia. Cenfrocafe's coffee comes from a combination of producers from among their 2,400-and-counting members whose coffees stood out to the cooperative's cuppers for being exceptionally clean and sweet. Although we don't have the level of community specificity from this lot that we have from Valle del Santuario, the farms, elevation, and flavors are similar, and it's coffees like this one that make Cenfrocafe our largest supplier from the Americas. Idido comes to us by way of YCFCU, from which coop we buy more coffee than from any other. Our holiday coffee from 2011 also came from YCFCU and, at the time, the Coffee Department talked about it as part of a campaign to popularize Ethiopian coffees. Three years later, coffees like Idido have made their way into more of our blends and year-round products over and they have and slowly but insistently shaped both flavor profiles and palates around their floral and citrusy characteristics.
Just as the packaging and ingredient philosophy of our holiday coffee continue to evolve every year, so does our goal with the per-pound donation. We have used holiday coffees to raise money for local charities, NGOs working in coffee-producing communities, and projects spearheaded by farms and cooperatives whose coffee we purchase, and the steady growth of our company has resulted in an ever-bigger pot of funds to donate. Growth is great, of course, but we've found that at times, the amount of money we raise can be overwhelming for the comparatively small-scale projects that our suppliers undertake, so we were looking for a way to break it up this year. Conveniently, CCC has a program called SEEDS that awards small grants of three to five thousand dollars to suppliers of ours, and since its creation in 2010 we've received applications from, and funded, producers across Latin America and East Africa as they planted trees, held compost trainings for their members, and developed strategies for income diversification. Instead of choosing a single project as the outlet for this year's holiday fundraising, we'll use the money to bulk increase the SEEDS budget by almost 50% and reach more growers across our diverse supply chains. Also, instead of limiting the donation opportunity to this one particular coffee and thereby sending the signal that the purchase of one does good and the purchase of the other… doesn't… we opted to make the donation apply to any coffee purchased from CCC during the months of November and December. It's less convenient to promote than one dollar per pound, but it's worth the work of explaining because it's a better representation of the holistic, measured approach we take to building relationships and buying coffee.
Rollout Dates and AvailabilityThis year's holiday coffee rolled out at the beginning of the month and we'll sell it through the first week of January 2015.

Get Ready for Some Football!
- next ›
- 362 of 735
- ‹ previous
It is a great time of year because it is football season! It is good to see the National Football League was able to avoid a lockout, but like most fans, it was a frustrating time. So why not return to a time when the players were only concerned about the love for the game: high school football. Football in general is a great source for stories of courage, teamwork, leadership, and inspiration.
One of the best stories about football is Friday Night Lights. Friday Night Lights is unique because it started as a book, and then it was made into a movie, and finally it was made in to a successful television series. The great thing about everything under the Friday Night Lights name is that the book, movie, and television series are all excellent and worth checking out!
The Book
Friday Night Lights: A Town, A Team and A Dream is a 1990 non-fiction book written by H.G. Bissinger. He follows the 1988 Permian High School Panthers located in Odessa, Texas. The book is an examination of a pressure-filled season spent with Coach Gary Gaines, his players, their families, and the town, all held together by their connection with the local high school football team.
The Movie
Friday Night Lights, the movie, is a faithful adaptation of the book and stars Billy Bob Thornton, Lucas Black, and Derek Luke. Like the book, it examines the 1988 season as the Permian High School Panthers try to make a run for the state championship. It also examines the political and social issues--such as racism, poverty, and segregation--that existed in the town of Odessa.
The Television Series
With the success of the book and the movie, Friday Night Lights was made into a television series that just concluded after 5 critically-acclaimed seasons. The television series follows the fictional East Dillon Panthers led by Coach Eric Taylor and has garnered 2010 Emmy nominations for Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton.
Friday Night Lights, the book, the movie, and the television series, are all winners!

The Greek Ouzerie & Taverna
458 Greenwich St., 646-476-3941, TriBeCa, Manhattan
The Greek slipped into the old Turks and Frogs space in TriBeCa a few months ago nearly as surreptitiously as a Trojan horse. Word trickled out about its soulful food, its warmth, its exclusively Greek wine list; gradually people outside the neighborhood have been catching on. Most nights it's full but not overrun. Owner Tom Galis, a fast-casual entrepreneur from Thessaloniki, applied his full passion to this dark, cozy "gastrotaverna," where you'll be inclined to eat slowly, savoring each bite. Spinach and feta pies are constructed of flaky handmade phyllo and grilled octopus is bathed in bacon vinaigrette. In addition to offering a few sea creatures, the restaurant represents the meaty mainland through seared chicken, Grandma's stovetop meatballs and ouzo-scented skirt steak.

August Sports Calendar
NYC Sports
by Jonathan Zeller, 07/24/2013
- more in nyc sports/
- events in nyc/
- recently/
As August arrives, don't fret if you can't find the time for a summer vacation. When it comes to sports, the month offers ample opportunities to feel like you've escaped to an exotic land without ever leaving the New York City area. For example, international soccer titans Valencia, AC Milan, Inter Milan and Chelsea are set to visit for the Guinness International Champions Cup, while the national teams from Mexico and Ivory Coast will also square off in East Rutherford, NJ. The best tennis players from around the world—like Andy Murray of England, David Ferrer and Rafael Nadal of Spain, Maria Sharapova of Russia and Roger Federer of Switzerland—are headed to the US Open in Queens, where the cuisine, too, comes from every corner of the globe. There's no need to head out of town for major-college football, either, as Penn State and Syracuse will kick off their seasons at MetLife Stadium. This is to say nothing of reliable standbys the Mets and Yankees, who are hitting the home stretch in their own seasons. And, hey, even if you'd like to vacation in the 19th century, you can go ahead and cancel your reservation on that time-machine voyage—the New York Gothams and Brooklyn Atlantics will play baseball by 1864 rules on Governors Island. For more info on these and the rest of the month's worldly sporting events, read on.

1864 Gothams Baseball vs. Brooklyn Atlantics
When: August 24
Where: Governors Island
More info: gothambbc.com
There's plenty of baseball for New York fans throughout August: head up to the Bronx to cheer on the Yankees as they chase a postseason berth (they're three games out of the last wild card spot as of press time); ride the 7 train to Queens to see the Mets, perhaps because Matt Harvey—All-Star Game starter and a man who's been all over the media in varying degrees of dress—is pitching, or maybe because you're psyched to hear a postgame concert by Third Eye Blind (back when "Semi-Charmed Life" hit the airwaves in 1997, Harvey was eight years old). There's also minor-league action in Staten Island and Brooklyn, where the promotions include Billy Joel–themed fireworks on August 10. There's also a vintage baseball card exhibit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Finally, if you haven't enjoyed such post–19th century changes as the addition of gloves to America's pastime, head out to Governors Island to see the New York Gothams—a team that plays the game by 1864 rules—as they take on the Brooklyn Atlantics.

New York Cosmos vs. Fort Lauderdale Strikers
When: August 3
Where: Shuart Stadium
Tickets: nycosmos.com
At press time, the Red Bulls trail Kansas City by two points for the Eastern Conference lead. In August, Thierry Henry and company are set to host home games against both Philadelphia and their bitter rivals DC United. That's not nearly all the soccer action in the area this month, either. MetLife Stadium hosts two huge days of European football: on August 4, the Champions Cup brings international powerhouses Valencia, Milan, Inter and Chelsea to town for a doubleheader, while on August 14 the Mexican national team hits the pitch against Ivory Coast. Also of note: the reincarnated New York Cosmos—though their MLS dreams seem like a long shot with New York City FC on the way—play their first NASL match, against the Fort Lauderdale Strikers, out on Long Island.

Gotham Girls Roller Derby
Where: Abe Stark Rink
When: August 3
Tickets: brownpapertickets.com
The competitors of Gotham Girls Roller Derby skate fast and hit hard. You may not know what a jammer, blocker and pivot are when you enter the gym, but longtime followers can tell you that it may not be long before these ladies turn you into a hard-core fan. And as if the action in the rink weren't enough, the event also features spirit-boosting jeerleaders.
Havemayer Park, Brooklyn
When: All month long
A pop-up park with a bike course, space for yoga and more opened recently near the Domino Sugar Factory site in Brooklyn, and it's pretty neat for those who are into such things. Curbed has an informative post on the project, complete with plenty of photos.
New York Liberty Basketball
When: All month long
Where: Prudential Center
Tickets: ticketmaster.com
Cappie Pondexter and the rest of New York's pro women's basketball team continue their final season at the Prudential Center (which is, by the way, just a PATH train ride from Manhattan) before moving back to a renovated Madison Square Garden.
Hong Kong Dragon Boat Festival
When: August 10–11
Where: Flushing Meadows–Corona Park
More info: hkdbf-ny.org
In addition to the athletes speeding their boats through Meadow Lake, this event features an array of entertainment to mark the fifth month of the lunar calendar. Past years have included kung fu demonstrations by the Shaolin Temple warrior monks; traditional music, dance and art from China, Mexico and Peru; and a diverse, delicious selection of international foods. Expect a similarly fun-filled, multicultural weekend this time around as well. Of course, the central happenings are still the dragon boat races themselves, during which more than 170 teams pilot long, colorful vessels in pursuit of trophies and cash prizes.

US Open Tennis Championships
When: August 26–September 9
Where: Billie Jean King USTA National Tennis Center
Tickets: usopen.org
Arthur Ashe Kids' Day
When: August 24
Where: Billie Jean King USTA National Tennis Center
Tickets: ticketmaster.com
US Open Qualifying Tournament
When: August 20–23
Where: Billie Jean King USTA National Tennis Center
More info: usopen.org
Millions watch the US Open not only to see great tennis, but to be part of an event that has produced icons—like the Williams sisters and Rafael Nadal—who have ascended from mere sports stardom to full-blown celebrity. Make sure to get your tickets early if you want good seats for prime matches. And, by the way: the qualifying tournament, during which players compete for berths in the main draw, is free to attend. Considering the stakes, those matches are generally fierce. Finally, no word yet on who's playing Arthur Ashe Kids' Day on August 24, but last year the entertainment was Carly Rae Jepsen, so expect someone the young folks are very fond of.
The Barclays Golf Tournament
Where: Liberty National Golf Club
When: August 20–25
Tickets: ticketmaster.com
The world's best golfers play within driving distance of New York City in this event, the first stop of the PGA Tour Playoffs for the FedExCup. While, as per PGA rules, the field won't be officially released until the week before the tournament, past years' tournaments have featured such huge names as Ernie Els, Sergio Garcia, Phil Mickelson, Vijay Singh and a guy named Tiger Woods. With so much at stake, it's reasonable to expect a similarly stellar lineup this time around.<
College Football, including Penn State vs. Syracuse
When: August 31 and all month long
Where: MetLife Stadium and beyond
Tickets: ticketmaster.com
College football season kicks off in late August, and the biggest area matchup pits the Penn State Nittany Lions against the Syracuse Orange. The City's local teams are in action as well: Fordham opens up against Rhode Island on August 29, Wagner hosts Georgetown on August 31, and Columbia starts its season in September.
Looking Ahead:
September 21: Islanders vs. Devils (preseason), Barclays Center
January 26, 2014: Devils vs. Rangers, Yankee Stadium
January 29, 2014: Islanders vs. Rangers, Yankee Stadium
February 2, 2014: Super Bowl XLVIII, MetLife Stadium
March 2014: NCAA Tournament, Madison Square Garden
Spring 2015: New York City FC (Major League Soccer), site TBA

Often Misused: Privilege Management
This is a Vulnerability. To view all vulnerabilities, please see the Vulnerability Category page.
Last revision (mm/dd/yy): 11/4/2008
Failure to adhere to the principle of least privilege amplifies the risk posed by other vulnerabilities.
Programs that run with root privileges have caused innumerable Unix security disasters. It is imperative that you carefully review privileged programs for all kinds of security problems, but it is equally important that privileged programs drop back to an unprivileged state as quickly as possible in order to limit the amount of damage that an overlooked vulnerability might be able to cause.
Privilege management functions can behave in some less-than-obvious ways, and they have different quirks on different platforms. These inconsistencies are particularly pronounced if you are transitioning from one non-root user to another.
Signal handlers and spawned processes run at the privilege of the owning process, so if a process is running as root when a signal fires or a sub-process is executed, the signal handler or sub-process will operate with root privileges. An attacker may be able to leverage these elevated privileges to do further damage.

Hi there I am trying to recover the local messages stored in a ZD 1.04 from a dead Vista notebook.
I've done the following
1. Installed a new ZD 1.04 in a Windows 7 machine
2. Installed a Zimbra Server, created the same account (I had to use a new domain name)
3. Configured ZD with this account
4. copied the three folders form the hard drive of the notebook (STORE, INDEX, DERBY)
Up to this point ZD opens and shows the messages. once again, I'm only interested in recovering the ones from the local folders ... the problems are:
a. Regardless of where it is a local folder message or one allegedly stored in the server, when you try to open it, the error message "NO SUCH BLOB" appears.
b. As you already know, if I export the local folders with this ZD version I only get 1k of useless .tgz
Any thoughts? Any succsess story of this kind of rescue?

Alice Sophia Eve was born Feb. 6, 1982 in London, England to award-winning stage and screen actor Trevor Eve, and his wife, U.K. television fixture, Sharon Maughan. At age two, Eve began the recurrent commute between London and Los Angeles, as she and her family - which grew to include two younger brothers - resided in both locations. The actress recalled that at age three she used to stage ballet shows in the living room, but in years to come found herself more drawn to veterinary and archeological pursuits. That is until at age 13, she was cast as Olivia in a production of "Twelfth Night." Her parents approved, but emphasized putting her education first, leading to their daughter attending...

Hopefully it will grow really strong roots before winter sets in again and survive!
I've not had good luck with 'Blaze' and 'Don Juan' here, either. The cross-breeding has probably eliminated the defects of both. Am considering 'Red Fountain' after seeing your post - this gardener does best with both "disease-resistant" and "hardy". LOL Plus, 'Red Fountain' is supposed to be a strong continual bloomer. One can't ask for more than that.

Friday Means New Arrivals at Sweet Maria's
Friday appears to be "new coffee day" at Sweet Maria's. We have some interesting new Central American lots:
- Mexico FTO Chiapas - La Union Coop: I think the quality is up this year, with a brighter, more articulate acidity.
- Nicaragua Esteli -Nueva Esperanza Coop: A classic milk-chocolate-and-nut Nicaragua flavor profile.
- Panama Boquete Golden Peaberry: Bright and surprisingly more complex and intense than typical Panamas
- Panama Don Pepe Estate Dry-Process: Wins the award for unconventional; like a Ethiopia Harar or DP Sidamo!
- In other big news this week, we were in on the Guatemala Cup of Excellence #1 Auction Lot, El Injerto Estate Pacamara, lot that went for north of $80/Lb. green in the auction. Stumptown did the bidding and gets the majority of it, Kentaro Maruyama and his Mikatajuku group will offer it in Japan, and we get just one bag (154 Lbs). But oh what an expensive bag it will be, adding import and transportation too... Ay Caramba! Still, it's shy of the +$100 we spent on Batch 2 at the Panama Esmeralda Gesha auction... sure makes these 4 new arrivals seem quite reasonable!

DEEP middleweight champion Riki Fukuda (17-4 MMA, 0-0 UFC) and "The
Ultimate Fighter 11" contestant Nick Ring (10-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) will do
battle in Australia.
UFC brass today announced that the two first-timers will make their octagon debut at "UFC 127: Penn vs. Fitch."
The bout, which takes place on the evening's preliminary card, was previously reported by MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com).
Fukuda comes into the octagon on an impressive seven-fight win streak. After taking the DEEP title from Yuichi Nakanishi in June 2009, he defended his title twice against opponents Hiromitsu Kanehara and Ryuta Sakurai. That undoubtedly earned him a shot at the big leagues, though it's not his first job for a major stateside promotion.
The 29-year-old Fukuda made two appearances for the now-defunct EliteXC promotion and went 1-1 for the promotion with a notable split decision loss to veteran Joey Villasenor in March 2007.
The Japanese fighter also has logged an appearance for DREAM, where he stepped in as a replacement for Yoon Dong-Sik and bested PRIDE and EliteXC veteran Murilo "Ninja" Rua at DREAM.8.
Ring, meanwhile, finally is off the bench after an injury to his ACL dashed his dreams of winning "TUF 11." The Canadian middleweight bested the show's eventual winner, Court McGee, in the first round of the reality-show tournament, but his knee forced him to withdraw from the show. Ultimately, the injury proved serious enough to keep him from the undercard of show's live finale, as well.
The Bellator vet remains unbeaten in his professional career.
With the official addition, "UFC 127: Penn vs. Fitch" includes:
- Jon Fitch vs. B.J. Penn
- Michael Bisping vs. Jorge Rivera
- Dennis Siver vs. George Sotiropoulos
- Carlos Condit vs. Chris Lytle
- Chris Camozzi vs. Kyle Noke
- Alexander Gustafsson vs. James Te Huna
- Riki Fukuda vs. Nick Ring
- Maciej Jewtuszko vs. Curt Warburton
- Tom Blackledge vs. Anthony Perosh
- Spencer Fisher vs. Ross Pearson*

I recently installed a trial version of Zimbra 7.2 NE to test it out as an alternative to our current MS Exchange solution. The lack of documentation and missing pages in guides was a bit frustrating but with the help of these forums I finally managed to get the server up and running. I can connect my iPhone as an exchange account but there doesn't appear to be any push notification happening. The only time the inbox will refresh is when I manually go into it. I have push notification enabled for "inbox" in my iPhone settings, is there something I have to do on the server side to get it working? Is there somewhere I can adjust the Activesync heartbeat interval?
I had to rely on this article to enable Zimbra on port 443: ZimbraApache - Zimbra :: Wiki
Are there any other steps that the installation and administration guides skip over that I should be reading?

May 31, 2016
The tradition of Alabama voters deciding whether to cast ballots in the Democratic primary or the Republican primary could come to an end in the 2014 elections for governor and the Legislature.
The State Republican Executive Committee has voted to back legislation that would require Alabama voters to register by party. Then registered Republicans would vote in the Republican primary and registered Democrats would vote in the Democratic primary.
Republican Party Chairman Bill Armistead says there is growing sentiment among party leaders that Republicans should decide who the party's nominees should be.
The Democratic leaders in the Legislature, Sen. Roger Bedford and Rep. Craig Ford, say they will oppose it because voters don't like labeling themselves.

Romo was born on April 21, 1980 in San Diego, CA, but the military brat grew up in Burlington, WI. He played football at Burlington High School before attending Division I-AA Eastern Illinois University, where he starred on the Panthers. Romo set both school and conference records, winning the Walter Payton Award for the best player in Division I-AA his senior year. Still, he went undrafted in 2003. Romo had received "feelers" from Dallas and Denver, indicating interest, but neither team elected to use a draft pick. Romo eventually signed with Dallas as a rookie free agent, which in the National Football League is not a secure position.
Romo's journey was not one of instant success. He spe... Continue Bio >>

Quick question.
Are blob filenames allocated sequentially based on what is in the message store directory already or by a counter somewhere?
I have moved 7.2.0 from an old to a new server in three phases,
1) Move all of /opt/zimbra when old mail server is still running
2) Stop old server and rsync everything except the message store
3) Start new server and run rsync for the blob store to catch up
This is to reduce downtime when both servers have to be offline.
The concern is that new mail arriving before the blob store rsync in step (3) is complete may be re-allocated blobs already allocated between step (1) and (2).

Im not exactly sure how all the states work but if you are willing to take a long shot most states have a raffle, you can buy a ticket for fairly cheap and still get your name in the hat. I know here in California having max points doesn't necessarily I mean you have better odds in some areas, for example some of the areas that have only 1 tag will be a random draw instead of going to a max point holder. The reason why they do this is because everyone has to have a chance. Other areas with 2 to 3 tags will benefit max point holders more because maybe only 1 of those tags will go to random draw.

Restoring A 1962 Ford F-100 - Old Friend, New Flame - TechWritten by on June 4, 2010 How To Bring An Old F-100 Back To Life Without Busting The Bank, At Least Not Too Much
When we left off, I had told you about buying my longtime buddy Dan's parents' '62 Ford F-100 longbed. They purchased it new and it had been in the Newton family ever since. No longer used every day, it moved into an Old Trucks Retirement Home a few years back and I was hoping to catch it before it went completely to seed. After a long and protracted negotiation ("Hey Dan, how much?" "Oh, I don't know. Couple hundred bucks?" "Yeah, sure."), we loaded the little guy on the back of a Jerre-Dan-equipped Dodge Ram 5500 Heavy Duty, and dumped it on my mechanic's driveway.
Now what?
I decided to get it running reliably, and fix up the scurvy interior, plus a few minor in-the-spirit-of-stock-mods. In a previous installment I mentioned that the stock single muffler was about the size of a civil war cannon, it leaked, and sounded nasal exhaling out of a 11/2-inch exhaust pipe. My old 292 Y-block uses an odd crossover exhaust system where the driver-side manifold dumps out the front, toward the radiator, into a crossover pipe that joins it to the passenger-side exhaust manifold then on to the single exhaust, which exited just aft of the right rear tire. In order to switch to true dual exhausts, you have to use headers or get a manifold from a Y-block-powered Ford (like a Thunderbird) that had dual pipes originally. Dan had previously found a set in the boneyard and had given them to me. My mechanics recommended not doing the change at the moment, as the studs holding the old manifolds to the engine looked pretty rusty; we break one, we pull the heads, something I wasn't wanting to mess with at the moment. My local muffler guy had a single inlet, dual outlet Flowmaster on his shelf, so we cut the old single system off, welded up the new muffler, and fabbed up a groovy set of side-exit pipes with 2-inch chrome tips, which exit just in front of the right rear tire.
The leaks were gone, and in their place, a modern, throaty burble. Not too loud, but right there, and American V-8-like all the way. Money well spent, until I'm ready to swap the manifolds and build a proper dual exhaust system.
The bed had lived a hard life and had its share of dents and surface rust, so I decided to do the spray-on bedliner route to make it look cleaner and reduce the risk of rust-through. Rhino Linings is a leader in this game, so I connected with Phil, the owner of a nearby Rhino franchise. He recommended an industrial-looking medium gray color, with a finish coat of a slightly darker gray, containing a bit of metallic fleck and a healthy dose of UV protectant.
As with any sort of sprayed- or painted-on surface, prep is the key to quality end results. Rhino Linings of Orange County technician Ray pulled out the grinder and sanders and got to work buzzing down the well-worn bed surface. Once the surface was prepared, a primer-prep solution was then rolled/brushed on. It seals the rust, and etches the metal in preparation for the Rhino material. The latter is heated and mixed with a catalyst in the gun, so it comes out hot and sticky and dries to the touch in just a few minutes. After about 20 minutes of curing in the sun, the topcoat can be applied with a roller or brush. The result is a tough, nice-looking surface; the Rhino coating hides a multitude of sins; covering up many of the bed's small dents and gouges. We also shot the cab steps as all of the original paint had been worn off, and they looked pretty grungy and were in need of protection. Treating the surface of the bed really helped clean the F-100 up and made it a bit more presentable, not to mention will help it withstand the daily grind when I start throwing parts in the back. It's amazing how easy it is to transform a dilapidated and abandoned hauler into something you can be proud to drive.

As with any job that involves a paint-like surface, prep is key to ensure good adhesion and a long life. The old surface doesn't need to come down to metal, just requires roughing up, and the removal of any loose or flaking paint.Rhino technician Ray applies the surface prep/primer material, which etches the old paint and metal, and fosters interaction with the new Rhino coating.So good is Ray with the Rhino applicator gun that he could probably replicate the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rhino if you wanted him to. The coating dries to the touch in about a minute.The topcoat, which contains the UV protectant, is rolled and brushed on, not shot. It is applied about 20 minutes after the final coat of spray-on Rhino. Color choices are nearly infinite, and can be mixed to taste.The finished job-dents mostly filled in, ugly surfaces gone, and it's all now protected against rust-through.
A different company named Vintiques makes these '62-65 Ford factory-style repop caps in polished stainless that I may run if I want to go back to a more correct period stock look.Headliner, bench seat upholstery, and carpet sets came from LMC Truck and were easily installed by my local upholstery shop. What a difference compared to the old, torn, and moldy stuff.

The psychology of poverty
I recently had a short conversation with a coworker about poverty and providing social services. My coworker expressed the opinion that he's reluctant to provide social services to poor people since he has observed poor people spending money on luxury items. I told him that I disagreed, but unfortunately we were interrupted by work and never got to finish the conversation.
I've been thinking about this conversation since then, and while I have some very firm opinions on this matter, it dawned on me that I may not be able to communicate them very coherently. So, I took this issue to Facebook to get input from friends.
One friend pointed me to research on the psychology of poverty. In summary, the additional cognitive load of being poor directly contributes to poor people making poor decisions. With a little searching, I found this paper (PDF) which offers a good analogy of how one aspect of this works:
Imagine packing for a trip, using either a small or large suitcase. If you have a large suitcase, it is an easy task to pack everything important with room to spare. You may even choose not to completely fill the suitcase. With a small suitcase, however, the task becomes much more complex. If not all important items will fit, you must consider trade-offs, such as what to take out if one more item is added. The suitcase can represent any resource, such as money. In that case, someone with ample resources can easily purchase all needed items with money left over. They may consider the wisdom and value of a particular small purchase, but are not likely to explicitly consider what other item must be given up in its place. In contrast, someone with limited funds must spend a lot of time and mental energy thinking about what to purchase, as each item chosen means some other item or items is foregone. In other words, having fewer resources makes decision-making much more complex. Complex problems draw on limited cognitive resources, which in turn means that there are fewer resources available for self-control.
Introduction to linguistics
The answers to this Quora question provide an entertaining introduction to several aspects of linguistics: What are some English language rules that native speakers don't know, but still follow? Among several very good answers, this one is very succinct:
Expletive infixation
If you want to insert 'fucking' in the middle of a word you know exactly where to do it. You say Colo-fuckin-rado, not Co-fuckin-lorado.
Even more surprisingly, if you want to insert 'diddley' in the middle of a word, like Ned Flanders from The Simpsons, you know where to put that and it's not the same place. (Note: Flanders's also duplicates a syllable so it's slightly different.)
Still more surprisingly, the rule that explains this placement can be explained in terms of prosody which is an entire dimension of linguistic (and almost musical) rules that few people seem to be aware they use.
Tie-dye party
A couple of months ago, a very creative friend of ours hosted a tie-dye party. It's actually quite an involved process. You have to soak the shirts for 15 minutes in advance, then tie and dye them, and then 24 hours later, you have to rinse them thoroughly, apply a fixative and then wash them with a fixative detergent.
She purchased the dyes and other chemicals (about $160 worth, I think she said) and then invited several families over to do the tie-dying in her front yard. The following evening, I spent several hours rinsing our clothing on the deck and washing them. We had a lot of fun, and I made the shirt below, as well as a couple of T-shirts. I'm afraid my attention to detail wasn't very good, but every time I wear this shirt, I get compliments, so I guess I did well enough.
Do you know anyone who…?
Recently, Charlie Pierce got thinking about how well Americans of one group know others outside their group. He got a polling organization to ask a set of "Do you know anyone who…?" questions, and here are the results:
Results: The percentage of Americans who don't know anyone who…
- Died in Iraq or Afghanistan: 87%
- Is part of a married gay couple: 76%
- Was a victim of gun violence: 73%
- Has HIV/AIDS or died of AIDS: 72%
- Is an illegal immigrant: 71%
- Is a millionaire: 63%
- Is in jail: 62%
- Committed suicide: 59%
- Had an abortion: 49%
- Lost his/her job in the financial crisis: 46%
- Doesn't have health care: 31%
- Has been arrested: 26%
- Owns a gun: 22%
- Served in the military: 17%
In reading through the list, I realized I do, in fact, know people who meet almost all of these criteria.
Here are my responses:
- Died in Iraq or Afghanistan: No
- Is part of a married gay couple: Yes
- Was a victim of gun violence: Yes
- Has HIV/AIDS or died of AIDS: Yes
- Is an illegal immigrant: Yes
- Is a millionaire: Yes
- Is in jail: Yes
- Committed suicide: attempted, yes, succeeded, not that I can think of.
- Had an abortion: Yes
- Lost his/her job in the financial crisis: Depends on how you define 'financial crisis'
- Doesn't have health care: Yes
- Has been arrested: Yes
- Owns a gun: Yes
- Served in the military: Yes
So, I apparently have a much broader experience than the average American. I would like to think that it makes me more accepting, but I don't want to flatter myself. I'm not sure what else to take from this survey and my answers except to try to keep in mind that many of the people around me do not have such broad experience with their fellow residents of the US.
On the death of RSS
I've been an avid user of Google Reader for several years, and I am bummed about Google's decision to shutter it. To be honest, I hadn't thought much about the life of the underlying technology: RSS. In this blog post, Ryan Holiday offers his opinion on why RSS, along with Google alerts and Delicious, is dying:
Think about it: in an ad impression-and pageview-driven business, a service [such as an RSS reader] that allows users to opt out of the noise and get content delivered directly to them is dangerous. When the common practice for bloggers is to publish first, verify second, the paper trail of Google Reader can be an embarrassment. And when sites do everything they can to hook you and increase the critical "time on site" metric or hit you with retargeting cookies, off-site RSS Readers once again stand in the way.
In other words, RSS is impervious to blogging's worst, but most profitable, traits.
Depressing but probably accurate.
The mystery poster
In 1982-83, I was a high school exchange student in Austria. A few months after I returned home, my friend Jim sent me the political poster below that he had found in Graz. He identified the blond guy on the left with the bandaged head as me. It sure looks like me, and it was–and still is–very common to find me with a bumped head, but I had no recollection of this photo being taken. So, either I attended a political event that I don't remember or my Austrian doppelgänger did.
Reflections on a life lived
I received my Ph.D. in Germanic Studies from the University of Texas in 1997, but I work as a software quality assurance engineer. I do not directly use my language/culture/literature education in my work, but I started out as a computational linguist in jobs which very much required my educational background. I was recently invited to talk with the students currently enrolled in my graduate program about career opportunities outside of the academy. How could I offer any kind of advice when I didn't really have any particular plan before the age of 30? After a lot of soul searching, I settled on describing it this way: I was the recipient of some significant good luck, but only because I was open to a variety of experiences did I take advantage of the luck when it presented itself.
The biggest break came after six years in grad school. I had completed my coursework, was working on my dissertation and was beginning to think about my longer-term future. I admitted that I wasn't particularly passionate any longer about my academic area (if I'd ever been very passionate, to be honest). Therefore, there was no reason to believe that I would be among the smallish percentage of my peers who would get good jobs in academia. So, I made a conscious decision to open myself up to other opportunities. Very shortly after this self-confession, there was a part-time job opening for a English-to-German lexical coder and quality analyst with the Metal machine translation project (which was, at the time, owned by Siemens and maintained a development office at UT). To make a long story short, this job led to a full-time job as a software quality assurance engineer with Logos machine translation and ultimately to my career as a software QA engineer.
As far as I know, I was the only one of 20 or so qualified grad students who applied for the Metal position. There are very few industry applications for my graduate education, and working in machine translation was one of them, but most of my peers were so focused on the very narrow path that was presented to them by their graduate program that they didn't even think to try out this opportunity. Tellingly, when I decided to pursue this path instead of one directly in the academy, some of the faculty members in my program wrote me off. They didn't consider my job as a computational linguist a valid career choice for my education.
So, my advice to the current grad students was to think more broadly of the skills that they've acquired in grad school and just to be open to the opportunities that fate places in our paths. You just never know what might come along, and if you're not open to it, you might not recognize an interesting opportunity when it presents itself.
Get Rich Slowly!
Marco Arment's new project, which he's calling The Pinboard Investment Co-Prosperity Cloud, is brilliant. As a counter to the typical get-your-investors-rich-quickly model of venture capital investment in startups, Marco believes that " social capital [not money] has become the bottleneck to success." Therefore, Marco is backing innovative projects with his own social capital: his ability to get "world to go look at what you made."
Having worked in numerous startups (including one that refused venture capital), I've long been critical of the VC model of investment. My primary criticism is that it reinforces short-term, get-rich-quick thinking, not a view for the long term viability of the product or services. Marco holds similar beliefs and furthermore, he has the ability to help give a leg up to innovators who aren't interested in, or aren't appealing to, the venture capital model.

|USDA issues CRP, direct and ACRE payments
|Written by Holyoke Enterprise
Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced Oct. 21 that USDA has begun distributing Conservation Reserve Program annual rental payments to participants across the country. USDA was also scheduled to distribute 2013 direct payments and 2012 Average Crop Revenue Election program payments beginning Oct. 24.
Payments originally were scheduled to be issued earlier in October but were delayed by several weeks due to the lapse in federal funding.
"Farmers, ranchers and rural landowners across the country count on USDA programs, and the payment delays due to the shutdown were an unnecessary burden," Vilsack said. "USDA has prioritized making these scheduled payments without any further delay, and Farm Service Agency staff have worked hard to get this assistance out the door as quickly as possible."

Man claiming to be a doctor seen stalking, kissing unsuspecting Walmart shoppers
Security video helps lead to arrest
WINTER HAVEN, Fla. - Winter Haven police have arrested a man accused of stalking and kissing unsuspecting women in Walmart.
Mario Augusto Medina, 67, of Lakeland, was arrested Friday and booked on charges of aggravated stalking and abuse of a disabled adult without great harm.
Investigators said they know of at least three cases so far in which Medina, seen in surveillance video, follows around women in their mid-50's.
Video obtained by ABC Action News shows a man dressed in a shirt and tie following a woman on a motorized scooter to a secluded area in the store.
Police said that's when he eventually grabbed her by the shoulders and kissed her on the lips.
"I believe it's not only bizarre, I believe it's criminal," said Chief Gary Hester of the Winter Haven Police Department.
Hester said the man sweet talks the women, telling them he's a Lakeland cardiologist, perhaps to get them to trust him.
They said the woman he forcibly kissed struggled to get him off of her.
"He attempted with this lady to try and get her to leave Walmart immediately with him. He also gave her some story about he had recently lost his wife and she looked just like his wife," Hester said.
Police said they know of three cases at the Walmart near Legoland in Winter Haven, including one woman who used her shopping cart to keep the man away.
They believe he also approached other women at a Bealls department store down the road.

Quality Time (Adam's Rocker)
Tom, one of our Eagle America woodworkers writes:
Finally I have found some time to get back into the basement to finish Adam's rocker. In the last blog about this rocker I promised to show how I joined the cross pieces to the back support and the seat. Compared to the rest of the construction this was very simple.
A note here…the location and drilling of these holes for the back assembly was done BEFORE gluing the rockers to the cross supports. I show the bottom back support cross member in the last blog in its final drilled state. It would be very difficult to drill the holes if the rockers were glued to the cross supports.
I used dowel centers to locate the holes and ½" dowels to hold the parts together. I laid out the positions of the holes for the dowels in the 5 seat back slats and seat supports and drilled them. Although I tried to get them "properly" located, I did not obsess on getting the position exactly right. The important thing here is to get the mating hole correctly positioned in the cross braces and seat pieces. This was easy with the dowel centers. I clamped up the seat back slats using spacers to make sure the spacing was correct and then carefully pressed the cross braces on the center points of the dowel centers.
This required a little finesse, but with the use of a small combination square to check to make sure the cross pieces were square and even with the outside boards, it worked out. I chamfered the top edge of the holes to make the back and seat easier to assemble.
I cut 1" long dowels and glued them into the holes on the back slats.
One very important point, I did this on a drill press with a forstner bit. I would recommend this and would discourage trying to drill these kinds of mating holes by hand. There is too much room for error doing it by hand.
Assembly was easy. I started on the back by dry fitting all five vertical pieces to cross members, including the lowest cross member that is or will be glued to the rockers. (I glued that after drilling and before back assembly, but it could be done the other way, I think.) I rolled the back to a nearly horizontal position using clamps to hold the dry fit assembly together. I then removed two adjacent back slats from the assembly, applied glue one and reassembled that slat back to the assembly putting clamps in the missing slat position. I started with the middle slat and worked my way out using the same procedure for the other 4 slats.
The seat slats were done with their side supports in position on the rocker. Again marking the position with the dowel centers took a little finesse but turned out well. Gluing the seat slats to the supports was done with everything mounted on the rockers.
I apologize for no pictures on this part of the description. I got so excited that I was going to get this out of my shop, I forgot!!!

WHEELING - Hurricane Isaac blew its way through Wheeling Island Stadium on Saturday night but it was a pair of football hurricanes by the name of Burch and Comis the turned in memorable performances during one of the most sparkling games of the still-infant 2012 season.
Despite the lightning and rain that forced a delay of two hours and 13 minutes late in the first quarter, Wheeling Central junior quarterback/running back C.J. Burch exploded his way for 267 yards on 36 carries, scoring four touchdowns as the Maroon Knights held on to knock off backyard rival Weirton Madonna, 28-22.
Also a junior, Weirton Madonna QB Ross Comis displayed the escapability that would have impressed Harry Houdini while rushing 13 times for 130 yards and one touchdown along with completing nine of 18 passes for 145 more yards and another six-pointer.

''This was a huge, huge win for us against a very talented team," Maroon Knights' Coach Mike Young said
''C.J. is one gutty kid who gave us another gutty performance. The first thing in did in the huddle at the end of the game was tell the offensive line they did a great job. He stepped up to the plate when we had took us down the field during two tremendous drives in the fourth quarter.''
Saturday's game was second in a row for the speedy Burch has run for better than 200 yards. But what made this one special is that it gave the Maroon Knights a victory that took away some of the sting from their opening game loss to Harrison Central.
Although the Blue Dons came up short, Coach Doug Taylor was pleased with the maturity he is seeing from his maturing quarterback.
''Ross is getting better and better,'' he said. ''He was a little antsy on some of the routes we ran last year and never let our receiver clear. On that touchdown pass to (Gabriel) Hypes in the first quarter, I told him it was first time I've seen you sit in there and let that route clear out before your threw it."
The scoring strike that covered 36 yards gave the Blue Dons the lead at 7-0 after Matthew Green's conversion keep at the 3:24 mark of the first quarter. Before Madonna could kick the ball back to Central a couple of lighning bolts were seen in the distance forcing the long delay.
When play finally resumed shortly after 9:30 p.m., the two-time defending West Virginia state champion Maroon Knights responded with a 13-play, 70 yard toucdown drive to knot things up. Burch's keeper carry covering 16 yards was the longest play as the march finally ended with his 1-yard carry off the right side. Brad Cottrell's conversion kick followed.
Madonna regained the lead 14-7 after Comis again used his athleticism to avoid a sack and find Hypes running wide open across the middle for 39 yards at the Central 16. Two plays later, it was Comis running a keeper to the 1 and then taking it across with 7:30 remaining in the half
But Central countered again moving 80 yards, 40 of which were picked up on a counter carry, for a first and goal at 6. Braxton Nolte blasted is up the middle for the score, deadlocking the game at 14-14.
After a scorelesss third quarter, the Maroon Knights turned to Burch again and he responded by rushing six times for 63 yards on a seven-play drive. He went off right tackle for the TD and a 21-14 Central lead with only 6:53 to play.
Remarkably, there were just two turnovers in the entire game, both by the Blue Dons. The first was an interception of a Comis pass by Cottrell. The second came three plays after Central's go-ahead TD when Nolte broke through to sack Comis, forcing a fumble that Coty Knecht recovered at the Madonna 39.
Burch's TD and Cottrell's placement put Central up by 14 points at the 3:04 mark.
Just when it appeared as if the game was over, Comis broke free on antoher daring scramble to race 68 yards to the Maroon Knights' 3. He was shaken up on the tackle and replaced by Hypes. After picking up two the 1, Hypes kept it again for the touchdowns.
The Blue Dons then slipped Comis back on the field as the holder for the PAT but after taking the snap, he stood up and avoided a couple Central defenders, Comis found Natha Guio in the back of the end zone for two-point conversion.
With just 57 seconds remaining, Madonna had no choice but to try for an onside kick that was recovered by Central's Michael Pleva effectively ending the game.

I guess Gilly is now ready to receive Jo-Willy - doesn't it all make sense now? Gotta love the Frenchie MOMA.
So in honor of his wolf-y ways and because it's Friday *cheers*, I give you Shakira's "She Wolf" for your listening and viewing pleasure. That's if you like smokin' hot, half-dressed, gyrating, bendy blondes in a cage, I mean.

Birth Place: Beverly Hills, California, USA
Born Oct. 21, 1956 in Beverly Hills, CA to "America's Sweethearts" of the era, actress Debbie Reynolds and crooner Eddie Fisher, the future star was Hollywood royalty long before she donned the infamous slave girl outfit years later. When Fisher was two years old and her brother Todd an infant, her father left her mother for a recently widowed Elizabeth Taylor, culminating in the biggest Hollywood love triangle dustup of the 1950s. Raised by her single mother under intense public scrutiny, Fisher decided to join the family business, as she knew no other reality. At age 12, she joined her mother's Vegas nightclub act and at age 15, appeared in the chorus of Reynolds' award-winning Broadway re... Continue Bio >>

In 2004, New Orleans music legends Cosimo Matassa, Earl Palmer, Dr John, and Deacon John appeared at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame in Cleveland. I was lucky enough to be there, and was able to report on the events for satchmo.com. For anyone interested in the story of Cosimo Matassa's heyday at J&M Studios, and New Orleans music of that era, you should check out this article.
I've been listening to Cosimo's music since I was a kid, even before I knew I was listening to his music.
Check out my article here.
WWOZ has been celebrating the life of Cosimo Matassa, legendary studio owner and recording engineer, since receiving word of his passing yesterday afternoon at age 88. He is survived by his three sons, seven grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren.
Good Morning Music Lovers! It is game day and you have all the "stuff" together that you need. Perhaps you have even had that first eye-opening beverage. But you do not have everything; in addition to the food, booze, and goodfellowship, a successful Tailgate – especially in Louisiana – needs most excellent tunes. I hope you find the following playlist an inspiring start to your great day. There is only one question left to ask, are you ready some football?
I Believe, Go Saints All The Way – Harrison Avenue
According to Alvin Harrison, he and his sister Angela originally released this song in 1987 as the band Harrison Avenue. He recalls, "Until its 1987 release, Saints fans never had winning season. I wrote about the team's journey through the years, and that year needed to be different. The players, the city, and all Saints fans throughout the Gulf Coast needed to believe, and support the Black & Gold like never before. As the Saints won game after game, the people of New Orleans made I Believe their song of choice at all the radio stations. That year became the first year the Saints made the playoffs."
Tiger Rag – LSU Tiger Marching Band
In HBO's Treme, singer-songwriter Steve Earle played a street singer named Harley Watt ("Me, if I'd never gotten a record deal", says Earle). He also wrote and performed "This City", the song that closed the show's first season. He performs it live at KEXP in the video below, following a short discussion of his role with host Stevie Zoom.
Postmodern Jukebox, the outfit that gave us the jazz-style cover of "Sweet Child O' Mine", is back with a cover of a contemporay pop hit: Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass", featuring the talented Kate Davis, who sings and plays upright bass.
Irma Thomas, backed by the Professionals, visited the Seattle studios of KPLU in October 2010, where did this killer version of Bill Withers' "The Same Love That Made Me Laugh". She also covered the song on the 2005 multi-artist Southern soul compilation I Believe to My Soul.
For your weekend viewing pleasure, 35+ minutes of Dizzy Gillespie, one of the greatest trumpeters in history and a founder of modern jazz. He sounds great (and displays a fine sense of humor) in this appearance on the BBC television show Jazz 625 from August 1966. Enjoy, knowing he'll be "eternally grateful for your boundless enthusiasm".
You might know that Mr. Tim Green, New Orleans' own reed man, passed away last week. He spent a lot of years playing and also recording with a wide variety of bands. You might have heard a tribute to him on 'OZ, and you might have thought that was all there was to know about him, might have thought that all the stories had been told, all the tunes played, all the significant and soulful solos aired. Not so. During the Friday Morning Set and on The Soul Ride, Mark McGrain, trombonist, composer, and founder of the trio group Plunge and James Singleton, composer, bandleader, as well as the premier bassist in town and maybe in the world, will be my special live guests and they will bring their own experiences to tell and I will be playing interesting and exciting music which you may have never heard. Join us roughly between 7 and 9 a.m., 90.7 FM and wwoz.org for this special show!

KOCHVILLE TOWNSHIP, Mich. (AP) — Four Saginaw Valley State football players under investigation after a former player accused them of sexual abuse have been suspended for two games.
The university said Friday that Tevon Conrad, Kaleb Forr, Jack Raymond and Jesse Somsel can return Sept. 15. A fifth player, Nate Snyder, served a one-game suspension.
Spokesman J.J. Boehm says the suspensions are related to the investigation. None of the players has been charged and Saginaw County prosecutors are reviewing the case.
According to a police report, a freshman player accused the five of touching him with their genitals in the locker room after he declined requests to sing for the team Aug. 13. The players have denied the claim.
The Division II Cardinals play at Malone on Saturday and host Findlay on Sept. 15.

Osteoarthritis is common in older dogs, but can occur at any age. If you suspect that your dog is suffering from this uncomfortable disease, make an appointment with your veterinarian immediately.
Sometimes owners, in the stress of the moment, forget to tell their veterinarian relevant information about their pets. Here is a handy checklist to bring with you to your next veterinary appointment. Check the box beside the symptom if you have observed it in your dog.
Be sure to let your veterinarian know about any medications or supplements your dog is currently taking, including aspirin or any other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as quellin™ (Carprofen) or Rimadyl® Caplets & Chewables (Carprofen). Some medications or supplements may interact in potentially harmful ways; your veterinarian can make the best recommendation for your dog.

WASHINGTON (WUSA9) -- The St. Mary's County Bureau of Criminal Investigations says a 79-year-old man died this weekend after he either fell or inadvertently placed a tractor into gear while leaving it.
According to authorities, police responded to a private farm in Leonardtown on Sunday after receiving a report of an accident. Officers then saw a man lying beneath a farm tractor. He was transported by ambulance to MedStar St. Mary's Hospital where he was pronounced deceased.
BCI detectives later determined 79-year-old Robert T. Jarboe of Leonardtown, Md. was operating his farm tractor when he either inadvertently placed it into gear while exiting it or fell from the tractor while it was in gear causing him to be thrown from the vehicle, say authorities. They believe he then fell behind the tractor and was struck.
The State Medical Examiners Office will perform an autopsy.
