Democracy at Work: 5 Questions With Traci Fenton, Founder and CEO of WorldBlu
Many people like to keep politics out of the workplace. But to Traci Fenton, what workplaces badly need is the infusion of a political idea: democracy.
Many people like to keep politics out of the workplace. But to Traci Fenton, what workplaces badly need is the infusion of a political idea: democracy. Fenton is founder and CEO of WorldBlu, a 14-year-old organization devoted to making companies more participatory. Allowing workers a stronger voice on the job is not only a lofty ideal, she argues, but also a recipe for revved-up employees and better business results. The proof, she says, can be found at firms on WorldBlu's annual list of the Most Democratic Workplaces. Fenton spoke recently with Workforce Management senior editor Ed Frauenheim.
Workforce Management: Why did you start WorldBlu?
Traci Fenton: Because of a series of life-changing events. My senior year in college, I was director of a student-run public affairs conference. My peers wanted to do the conference on democracy. I said, 'That's the worst idea I've ever heard. Democracy means government and politics and I'm not interested in either!' But I started to research the concept. I realized democracy creates an environment that unlocks our full potential. ... It really spoke to my heart. Then I spent time in Indonesia, when the dictator Suharto was being overthrown. I saw what it was like to not live in a free and democratic environment. When I returned to the United States, I took a job at a Fortune 500 firm. I came home from my first day of work demoralized. I realized I was not going to have a voice there. So I left. And I started WorldBlu.
WM: Isn't workplace democracy a recipe for sluggish decision-making?
Fenton: Decentralized decision-making can take more time on the front end as you gather more input from employees. But organizational democracy doesn't mean you have to vote on everything. And even if decisions require more time, you make up that time in the execution. People who have had a say in a decision are more willing to follow through on it.
WM: Is organizational democracy good for everyone?
Fenton: It's not right for all employees. Not everyone has a strong sense of their own self-worth. This may sound hippy-dippy, but it's a requirement for effective participation in a democratic organization.
WM: You say organizational democracy is inevitable. Why?
Fenton: We don't live in the Industrial Age anymore; we live in the 'Democratic Age.' And the command and control system that worked before simply doesn't work in this new age.
WM: Is organizational democracy good for all businesses?
Fenton: Yes. Organizational democracy is good for all companies, but what matters is the timing as to when it is introduced. The mindset of the CEO and top leaders must be prepared for it first before a democratic framework and leadership style can be introduced.

Saturdays at The K…
If you've taken a look at the 2008 Promotions Schedule, you've noticed that we pretty much are hosting a great promotion every Saturday evening at the ballpark this season. We know you love those promotions (golf umbrellas, bobbleheads, camo caps, etc.), but we know you aren't crazy about getting to the ballpark two hours before first pitch to make sure you get those promotions. Well, this season, Saturdays at The K are going to be a little different…
For Saturday home games, we are partnering with Entercom-Kansas City, the parent company of 610 Sports, to host Baseball Night in Kansas City: 610 Saturdays presented by Miller Lite. It's a promotion that features a premium give-away item, exciting pre-game entertainment and a great ticket value!
We are casually calling them 610 Saturdays, but the bottom line is that we want your Saturday nights in Kansas City to be spent at the ballpark. We want you to get to the ballpark early to pick up your promotional item before heading over to the special pre-game entertainment zone – located near Gate A of Kauffman Stadium – to interact with 610 Sports personalities, listen to live music and special guests and take advantage of great food and drink specials. And, to mix it up throughout the season, 610 Saturdays will be co-hosted by different Entercom-Kansas City stations, including 96.5 The Buzz, 106.5 The Wolf, 99.7 The Boulevard, 98.1 KUDL and 98.9 The Rock. So, no matter what your music likes are, we've got you covered in 2008!
Also, as part of Baseball Night in Kansas City, we are introducing the "610 Pen" seating section. Here's the details: for each 610 Saturday, all seats in View Level Infield section 424 will be available for purchase online at royals.com for just $6.10 (regularly $15). Fans in the "610 Pen" section will be a part of in-game promotions and features. In order to take advantage of this exclusive ticket offer, fans can listen to 610 Sports or visit royals.com/610saturdays beginning the Monday prior to each 610 Saturday. A password that will be announced over-the-air and available online will let fans purchase "610 Pen" tickets.
Okay, so now that you know what 610 Saturdays are you can purchase your tickets for this coming Saturday, April 12 – the first 610 Saturday event, of the year. For the Saturday game against the Minnesota Twins, which also marks the debut of the new powder blue jerseys, fans visiting the 610 Saturdays zone will be treated to a live remote with 610 Sports on-air personality Nick Wright of the "What's Wright" show, activities for kids and a special Royals Alumni autograph session – featuring John Wathan, Dennis Leonard, John Mayberry and Frank White – from 4:30-5:30 p.m.
Oh, and for that great Saturday promotion, the first 20,000 fans on April 12 will receive their own Billy Butler No. 16 Powder Blue Replica Jersey, courtesy of FSN Kansas City. Not a bad way to spend a Saturday at The K!

This is a cool deal. Especially the discounted tickets, $6.10 is a great deal even if it is the upper deck.
This IS a great promotion… except that sec. 424 doesn't include ANY accessible seating.
It is EXTREMELY inappropriate to have a promotion at The K that EXCLUDES some members of the fan base. I hear Dayton Moore continue saying that he wants to bring Class back to the organization, but this type of discrimination undermines that expectation.
As a person with a disability, I don't expect "special" treatment… only equal treatment.
When I called the ticket office, I was told that this is a 610-radio promotion, and offered tickets in a different section for $9.00. I don't care who is sponsoring a promotion at The K, the Royals should be equally (ultimately) responsible for promotion / offers afforded the general public.
The Billy Butler Jersey Give Away was the biggest fiasco in Royals history! It was a mob scene and if you made it through the gates, of which there are far too few, you then faced a frenzied bunch of psychos trying everything to get their hands on one of those shirts. I saw people running out of the gates with 2, 4, 6, 8 in their paws and obviously no intention of stayin for the game…one guy had a box full and stated he was going to sell them on e-bay! Hog!!! As of this morning there are more than 100 up for sale, some at much more than the cost of a club level seat. I was almost crushed in the rush by "Greed Hounds" to get their goodies! Where was security? Where was common sense? Where was Toby Cook? Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fastback ImpactWritten by on October 7, 2004 Contributors: John Hunkins The timing couldn't have been better for Year One's latest project
There's little doubt as to the enduring popularity of pony cars, but scan the aisles of most car shows and one will usually find an overwhelming presence of Camaros and Firebirds. GM's F-body line may have been a late arrival to the party started by the Ford Mustang, but they sure made up for it in the aftermarket.
While the Mustang has managed to hold it's own over the years, the crew at Year One thought blue oval enthusiasts could use a little extra inspiration to help combat GM's one-two pony car punch. The fact that Ford was celebrating the Mustang's 40th birthday in 2004 only served as further motivation for creating this unique g-Machine.
Based on the overwhelmingly positive reaction to their first two project cars (a '69 Camaro and a '67 Chevelle), they decided a '66 Fastback would be next in line for their royal treatment. Year One Project Manager, Dennis Roberts originally sold everyone on the idea of doing an AF/X-inspired Mustang and with the help of staff designer, Phil Brewer, the two came up with a concept that fell somewhere between a basic hot-rodded street machine and an over-the-top, engineering exhibit on wheels.
It would've certainly been easy enough for Year One President Kevin King to pick out a car, commission a rendering and hire a big-name builder, but they keep things in-house for a reason. "We build these cars as design and engineering exercises. It keeps us in touch with the hobby and allows us to work extremely close with the manufacturers," says Keith Maney, editor of web content at Year One.
This process allows Year One to gain firsthand experience with parts and suppliers, which in turn helps them select products to fill their catalogs. One such item they hope to add in the near future is the Thunderbolt-inspired hood. Testing the prototypes on this car allows them to resolve fitment issues before the hoods get into the hands of their customers.
In addition to offering a welcome aesthetic change, the teardrop-shaped hood offers more clearance for the Kenne Bell supercharger mounted on top of Ford's modern version of the "Cammer" engine--a 4.6 liter DOHC V-8. Concealed under the custom air cleaner, the supercharger delivers between 20 and 24 pounds of boost, depending on which Metco pulley they have installed. Brad Brand has been dialing in the FAST engine management system on the car and currently has it producing about 620 horsepower to the rear wheels.
The wide profile of the modular V-8 had other clearance issues in the engine bay, but they were resolved with the addition of a weld-in front suspension system from Martz Chassis. "We had good luck with the Martz chassis on a Nova we built for Paul Walker and we wanted to update the suspension on this car anyway. To be honest, that was about the only way the engine was going in it," admits Maney. A Martz four-link style rear suspension system was also added in the rear and QA1 adjustable coil-overs now soften the ride on all four corners.
The Martz four-link eliminated the need for leaf springs, which allowed Jeff Georges, Jimmy Kerlin and Johnny McDonald to mini-tub the rear. The additional clearance created by Year One's fabricators made 295/35-series BF Goodrich drag radials and 18x10 Budnik Fontana Dishes an easy fit. Even with such a wide footprint in the back, Maney claims the Mustang still suffers from "severe traction problems" when the stampede of torque finds it way into the Moser 9-inch rearend. The massive spike in performance necessitated improvements in the braking department, so 13-inch binders from SSBC were installed all the way around and a six-point cage and G-Force harnesses were added for good measure.
All of Year One's project cars are built with the intention of running the Power Tour, so durability and functionality are high priorities. To promote trouble-free operation, the Cobra's T56 6-speed tranny was brought in and fortified with a RAM clutch and Kirban shifter. The transmission installation proved to be the most difficult aspect of the build, as extensive fabrication was required to enlarge the tranny tunnel. The upside is that the six-speed offers tolerable cruising rpms on the highway, which wouldn't have been possible otherwise, especially with a set of 3.73 gears out back. Even with the extra gears, cruising range would have been limited by heavy feet and a stock tank, so a 22-gallon fuel cell from Fuel Safe was dropped in the trunk.
The interior follows a similar theme to the exterior, where moderate upgrades greatly improve the functionality of the car without going beyond the reach of the average enthusiast's ability to duplicate. Bucket seats were plucked from an '87 Mustang GT and reupholstered by Lamar Stevens, who also installed the carpeting. A Rockford Fosgate stereo system was added for cool tunes and Vintage Air now provides cool breezes.
The one area that did receive a little extra effort was the instrument panel. "We've done custom dashes on every car we've built so far and it's become one of our signature points on each build. One of the ways you can modernize these vintage cars is by updating some of the really dated aspects of them and typically, the dash areas look old," says Maney. Roberts and Brewer came up with the design, which features a full complement of Autometer Cobalt gauges. Year One's in-house fabrication team was then handed the task of incorporating them into the display in seamless fashion.
When it came time to select a paint scheme for the exterior, numerous discussions took place regarding the impact of the carbon-fiber hood on the overall theme. "We knew we wanted to keep the carbon-fiber hood unfinished and it was going to look funny if we didn't do something on the front end. The accents on top of the fenders, in the pillar vents and on the back end added enough black to make it look right," explains Maney. "Then we went back and forth between flat black and gloss black and ended up somewhere in the middle."
The rest of the car is covered in Azure blue, which is an exclusive color on new Mach 1s. Primers and clears were supplied by Southern Polyurethane and laid down by Jerry and Brian Williams at the Willfab Rod Shop in Cornelia, Georgia. Roberts and Brewer came up with a few other subtle exterior changes, including a fiberglass spoiler integrated into the rear deck and a custom grille that shields a set of Hella driving lights, while allowing more airflow through the lower valance near the intercooler.
The project was started in earnest in the fall of 2003 and completed by March of 2004, so the car could debut at the Mustang's 40th anniversary celebration in Nashville. Since then, it has completed the Power Tour long haul from Texas to Wisconsin and picked up a top-5 finalist award for PHR Street Machine of the Year at the Goodguys PPG Nationals in Columbus, Ohio.
If Mustang fans dig this car as much as we do, Year One will probably list all of the parts on their website, as they did with their NOV8TR Camaro. We've already spotted a clone of that car on the Power Tour and we predict this Mustang will have a similar impact.
Year One would like to thank the following people for their special help in building the faskback: Phil Brewer, Jr., Dennis Roberts, Jeff Georges, Jimmy Kerlin, Johnny McDonald, Kevin Orr and Brad Brand.

I haven't had a chance to mess around with this in the last week or two but I have read over past forum threads/wiki articles and so on and was wondering if anyone else was out there was using FreeRadius configured to Zimbra's LDAP backend.
I'm able to get thru the authorization and authentication stage then passing off the DEFAULT entry in the users file but I was hoping be able to tie the radius attributes directly into the zimbra backend and hand off Framed IP's, Netmasks, Port Limits and so on. Currently we are running 3 radius services for 3 different types of services but when/if we move to a zimbra or other solution I would like to tie this into one.
I did see an article by someone else posted over a year ago mentioning using the built in zimbra mysql database. Is the users password stored in mysql as well as ldap? If so I can build off that.

Monty Python's Spamalot Information
About the show:
Monty Python's Spamalot is an irreverent musical comedy based on the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. It has many similarities to the film, including its main storyline, a spoof of Arthurian legend. But it also features new material, including parodies of Broadway musicals and other original songs. The book and lyrics were written by Monty Python co-founder Eric Idle, who also collaborated with composer John Du Prez on the music.
After a successful Chicago preview, Spamalot opened on Broadway on March 17, 2005. Thanks to enthusiastic pre-sales from Broadway and Monty Python fans, the first performances largely sold out, and the show ran for an impressive 1,574 performances, closing on January 11, 2009. Fans adored the performances of the show's original stars, including Tim Curry (The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Clue) Hank Azaria (The Simpsons, The Birdcage), David Hyde Pierce (Frasier, Curtains), Christopher Sieber (Shrek the Musical, La Cage Aux Folles), and Sara Ramirez (Grey's Anatomy, The Capeman). Critics also praised the show and it won 3 of the whopping 14 Tony Awards for which it was nominated. Get your Monty Python's Spamalot tickets today to see this smash hit musical in all its hilarity!
Plot Synopsis:
A historian addresses the audience with a brief overview of the history of medieval England. Actors appear in a picturesque Finnish village and begin singing the "Fisch Schlapping Song" until the historian corrects them, saying he was talking about England, not Finland. They disappear and a dark, sullen village scene emerges with robed monks chanting in Latin and hitting themselves with Bibles. King Arthur, on a mission to recruit knights for his round table, arrives on foot with his faithful assistant, Patsy, who is banging together two coconut shells to imitate the sound of a horse galloping. They get no help when they encounter two guards who seem more concerned with debating whether two birds could carry a coconut than helping them.
Shortly thereafter, Arthur comes across Sir Robin, who is collecting those who have died from the Black Plague, and Lance, a savagely violent man. They both agree to become knights when Lance hears about the violence and Robin hears about the singing and dancing. Then, the group encounters Dennis Galahad and his mother, political rebels who question the legitimacy of his rule. To convince them, he gets the Lady of the Lake, who appointed him king by giving him the sword Excalibur, to turn him into a knight.
Together, Sir Robin, Sir Lancelot, Sir Galahad, Sir Bedevere, and Sir Not-Appearing-In-This-Show complete Arthur's Round Table. They arrive in Camelot (which resembles a modern-day Las Vegas resort casino) and receive an order from God to find the mysterious "Holy Grail," So they set off once again. When they are ridiculed by French soldiers, they send them a Trojan Rabbit, but unfortunately neglect to hide inside. The crafty French guards then send cancan dancers after them and begin hurling cows, so the knights flee, defeated.
King Arthur and his noble knights continue their search for the Holy Grail, but meet many challenges on the way, including the ridiculous Knights Who Say Ni, the overly confident Black Knight (who thinks nothing of losing the occasional appendage), the arduous task of putting on a Broadway musical (with not a savvy Jew in sight), the plight of an extremely effeminate young prince, and an evil rabbit. Order your Spamalot tickets to see all of the absurd events unfold to a gloriously silly conclusion.

Recently I've done a "mini-triathlon" event called WinchesterPPP and I was able to record the whole event by placing my GoPro camera on the helmet (You can see my video on that website). Next year I'm planning to do a proper triathlon and instead of kayak I'll be swimming. The thing is I would like to record that part too, but I don't know where to put the camera to get the best video

This question came from our site for participants in team and individual sport activities.
For the swim you really only have one option - to wear a light helmet of some kind to get the camera on the top of your head.
Anywhere else and it will not show anything useful (too much splash) or will cause drag (eg chest mounted) - look how much of the body is underwater:
If you think you are really good, point it backwards. You will get a better view, with less splash, and if you are in front, the shots you will get of the rest of the pack could be really good.

Brooklyn, NY (Sports Network) - LeBron James and the Miami Heat put another
beat down on Brooklyn Nets with a thorough 105-85 victory Wednesday at
Barclays Center.
Two days after being honored by President Barack Obama at the White House for
last season's championship, the Heat shot 51.8 percent from the field and a
stellar 11-of-19 from behind the arc to earn their 13th straight win over the
Nets, including three this season by a combined 63 points.
James totaled 24 points, nine rebounds and seven assists for Miami, which
turned a tie game on its head with a one-sided 36-14 third quarter. Dwyane
Wade chipped in 21 points, while Chris Bosh added 16 in the victory.
The Heat were coming off a double-overtime loss to the Boston Celtics on
Sunday and were facing a Nets team that had not lost at home since Christmas
Day. But Brooklyn saw its eight-game home winning streak fall by the wayside
in part because of 19 turnovers -- eight coming in the decisive third quarter.
Brook Lopez and Joe Johnson scored 21 and 16 points, respectively, in defeat.

MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. (AP) — A son of the late Sen. Robert F. Kennedy is not testifying at his New York child endangerment trial.
Douglas Kennedy's defense lawyers rested their case Friday morning without calling Kennedy. He also is charged with physical harassment.
The case stems from a January maternity floor scuffle at Northern Westchester Hospital.
Kennedy is accused of kicking one nurse and twisting the arm of another as they tried to prevent him from taking his newborn son, Anthony, outside.
The nurses claim Kennedy was violating hospital policy. But a doctor testified that Kennedy had permission to take the baby.
Kennedy is the 10th of 11 children of Robert and Ethel Kennedy. His father was assassinated in 1968.

Velvet Sky returning to TNA
Rumors have surfaced that Velvet Sky could be making her return to TNA very soon. Apparently, the two sides have patched things up. When her contract expired in January, management opted to let her go. Velvet was very disappointed and publicly voiced her opinion on the matter, citing that she was hoping for more loyalty from the company. There are also talks that her real life boyfriend Bully Ray could be making a return as well.
May 8, 2015
Bully Ray returning to TNA
There are some rumblings that Bully Ray could be making his return to TNA tonight on Impact Wrestling. Management has been promoting the fact that a former world heavyweight championship would be making a comeback. However, these rumors have to be taken with a grain of salt, as Bully is being advertised to make appearances for a promotion in New Mexico on Friday and Saturday. Of course, they could have been canceled.
May 8, 2015
Velvet Sky return
While she really is no longer under contract to TNA, there are now rumors floating around that Velvet Sky could simply be working the audience. She has been telling people how disappointed she was that management did not show her more loyalty. Vince Russo even went on a long tirade about the promotion when he interviewed Velvet recently. A potential return is possible after she spends some time on the indies with Bully Ray.

My 16" f7.2 Newt project code named "Grace"
Posted 02 January 2013 - 11:18 AM
I've decided to dedicate this project to My Grandma Grace who passed away this past Thanksgiving. She and my Grandpa always encouraged my love of the night sky which started at their farm in Indiana. When we would visit, I would sleep on the floor in a sleeping bag. They would turn up the heat before bed and I would just swelter. I took to opening the sliding screen door a crack to let some cool air in and I always told them it was to look at the stars! When I first became interested in telescopes, my first experience was the their farm with a 90mm refractor. My first view? Jupiter. The big guy just blew me away and she was amazed as well. After that my scopes grew and I would always set one up on my visits.
Needless to say, This scope is going to be huge. For my last big project each component had to pass the lift test. For this project, each piece has to pass the doorway test!
Parts and pieces are still arriving, so this will evolve slowly and there are some features that will have to develop as we go.
The quick summary is that I am putting together an open truss Newt on an equatorial platform using as many "found" objects as I can. So far I have the arms from a mission style recliner, some tripod legs and a moonlight focuser.
I picked up a load of wood last night and I'll start showing pictures soon... Stay tuned!

The fact that northern Arizona temperatures are getting into mid-teens has nothing to do with my delays
I thought about an equatorial platform for mine. I have first-hand experience with the Osypowski platform and nothing but good things to say about them. But given the scale of my project ServoCAT seemed like a better choice. And GOTO will be very handy with 2800 mm focal length. Driving the whole thing wirelessly with SkySafari and an iPad was icing on the cake.

Do you have the hydraulic lift to reach the eyepiece yet?
I spent my Morning at Menards asking each sales associate if any of the ladders were ASCOM compliant, none of them could tell me.
Posted 02 January 2013 - 06:12 PM
Congratulations Sean, and best of luck on the project. My 16" f/7 can see first light any night now, depending upon whether or not I want to wait for a bracket for my ServoCAT control box. My feeling is that such a scope deserves better than duct tape for it's maiden voyage.

Other bands, their scopes only go up to 7. Ours go up to 7.2, for when you want to get just a little longer. Seriously, Jeff, that scope is beautiful. That truss looks so light and effortless. Here in the Midwest, we have to dress ours up a little more for the crazy winters.
I have always wanted to build a platform and this scope being as cumbersome as it is, I felt this was the project for it. If my jigs work out, I make make a couple for my other scopes.
Posted 02 January 2013 - 07:45 PM
Jeff, simply beautiful! The split truss is the way to go for resistance to misalignment. It should be an awesome all-purpose telescope. Do you have a 3 or a 4 wave spider. A 3-vane is better diffraction-wise. How big is your central obstruction?
Thanks. That picture was taken during tube trimming, still a few finishing touches to go.
I played around with wire spiders for a month, then broke down and got a 4 vane. The diagonal mirror is 2.6", for about 16% obstruction. If Mel Bartels diagonal calculator is correct, it should fully illuminate a 31 Nagler. Going with the next smallest size (2.14") was starting to get a little chancy. You see, there was another consideration - I used a Moonlight focuser and filter slide, and I wanted to have enough room to mount the slide completely outside the aperture defined by the tube rings so as not to create additional diffraction.
Posted 02 January 2013 - 07:52 PM
An option you might want to look at is a rolling platform ladder (McMaster-Carr). They are incredibly comfortable and stable. And surprisingly easy to move around too. I could post a few pics, but I don't want to hijack your thread (pm me if you want me to email them). I bought one for my scope, and Jon Issacs has been using one with his 25" scope, which I believe has just a bit more focal length than you or I have.
The only downsides of this approach is transporting it. Easy if you have a trailer. Perhaps easy if you have a pick-up truck or a van. Impossible with a car or SUV.
If you are looking more of a standard ladder, the Little Giant ladders look like a good option. If you have a roof rack on your car that would be workable.

So to massacre one of my favorite speeches ever, There are knowns I know and knowns I don't know. There unknowns I know and unknowns I don't know, you know?
So I know that I like to have a very quick setup. I don't like fiddling with lots of pieces. When my scope breaks down, it has to break down into 3 or four manageable parts.
I know from where I usually observe that stray light is a constant problem. The 12" dob Darren took a picture of was built to be as open as can be. It was since rebuilt to shield the mirror from as much ambient light as possible.
I like for my scopes to be as stiff and "tight" as I can manage. No wobbles.
stuff either has to move or it has to never ever move with nothing in between.
I don't mind heavy scopes (once they are set up)
Fans are important.
Baffles are important.
Having the mirror protected is important.
As I learned from my 12", crazy looking scopes are great but take a walk around a star party and check out which scopes are getting used and they all tend to look the same.

Warren Peters Platform
There are three or four different designs, all have some strengths and weaknesses. The Warren Peters design is a little harder to make as there are two arcs of different radius you have to cut out but the plusses for a large heavy scope is that the actual platform can be a square or slight rectangle and the weight is supported on all four corners. A Poncet platform is a little simpler as the back arc is replaced by a single angled pivot but for a scope this size and weight, the extra stability should more than pay for the extra work.
Posted 04 January 2013 - 12:39 AM
I can't wait to look through your 6" Jaeger's although I won't be building mine any too soon. I am totally occupied with my Interferometer project and have the 6" AP for my observing.
Posted 04 January 2013 - 08:18 AM
On a side note, What do a lot of you use for artificial stars?
I was going to make pinholes like the old days, but it's hard to control the size. We do have a laser at work I could make some holes with. I cold shoot some spots at some copper foil.
Posted 04 January 2013 - 08:36 AM
With that F Ratio your scope should be excellent for Planetary and blow away anything else around including short focal length Dobs of larger apertures!

An admirable goal, but I would not make it the top of the list.
Realistically, the limiting factor on getting the evenings observing started is the primary mirror. Even with fans, there is not a lot to be done for the first hour anyway. While it's nice to be set up in five minutes and then have time to sip a coffee as twilight progresses, ultimately you're always waiting on the mirror.
A different story at the end of the night of course, but still not enough to make it the #1 design criteria.

The Milk Bar, 1514 Delachaise St.</p>
When Paul and I first tried the Milk Bar last spring, we were pretty jazzed: we got two delicious, hot po-boys, with not-your-average-bear fillings, for a very good price. But there was the issue of parking, and driving all the way up to Touro (the original Milk Bar is right next to it), and the fact that it wasn't open on weekends if we wanted to take out-of-town guests there. Those things made it not quite convenient enough of a place to eat, even though I really wanted it to be.
Now, the world is a better place. There's a new Milk Bar in the Riverbend! AND it's open Monday through Saturday, 8:00 am to 9:00 pm. My sandwich prayers have been answered!
There are a few things I want to tell you about this place. It's not your average po-boy shop. In fact,
- there isn't a fryer, so there are no french fries (though they have Zapp's)
- there's no fried seafood
- there's no alcohol
But what isn't average-po-boy-shoppy about The Milk Bar is also what makes it a special place, because it has
- a full coffee menu
- extremely delicious milkshakes and smoothies
- lots of salads--not something Nola is known for, right?
- out of the ordinary po-boy fillings
- a couple of breakfast sandwiches
- free lollipops
- good prices!
The Milk Bar is owned by an Australian wife and a Brit Husband, and though they don't serve lamb pies (which made Paul a bit cross at first), they do serve roasted lamb in po-boys, sandwiches, and salads. And let me tell you that it is GOOD. The roast lamb po-boy that Paul has gotten twice now (pictured above) is the best-tasting roasted meat po-boy I've ever had. It's rich and meaty but not overloaded with garlic, and the gravy is present, but it doesn't totally soak through the bread, rendering it unpickupable. This is a 12-incher for $8.00 NOT EVEN KIDDING.
This is the Chicken Parmesan po-boy, which is very tasty, but be warned, not fried. They use roasted chicken in it, same as for the Thai Chilli Chicken. Still, warm and melty with mozzarella and red gravy, it's a good tasting sandwich, and healthier to boot.
As far as I can tell, The Milk Bar has no website. I'm including photos of the menu I got last week so you can read and salivate:

(Reuters) – Here are five storylines to watch during the National Football League's 2014 season, which begins Thursday in Seattle.
The charismatic rookie quarterback was not selected until the 22nd pick of the 2014 Draft by Cleveland but there was no more popular choice than the player known as "Johnny Football." A dynamic player on the field and outspoken off it, Manziel set several passing records in his rookie college season in 2012 and went on to become the first freshmen to win the Heisman Trophy as college football's most outstanding player. He will start the season as the backup but Browns fans may demand he take over the offense at the team's first sign of struggle.
The 26-year-old signed a six-year, $126 million contract during the offseason that annointed him as the San Francisco 49ers' quarterback now and into the future. With the massive contract comes lofty expectations for a versatile quarterback entering his second full season as a starter. He got the 49ers to within a win of reaching the Super Bowl last season, one year after taking over the starting role midway through the campaign and leading the team to the title game, where they lost to Baltimore.
After spending much of last season dealing with a bullying scandal that involved since-departed offensive linemen Richie Incognito and Jonathan Martin and made national headlines, the Dolphins enter this season focused solely on football. Despite the distractions, Miami nearly made the playoffs last season as the second wild card but were unable to win one of their final two games. But with the bullying issue in the rearview mirror, Miami could make a successful run to the playoffs.
The two future Hall of Fame quarterbacks are still competing at a high level late in their careers and neither seems ready to discuss retirement, but the window for each to add another Super Bowl win to their already glittering resumes is closing quickly. Denver's Manning, 38, and New England's Brady, 37, both play for talented teams expected to contend for a title. The oldest signal caller to win the Lombardi Trophy is John Elway, who was 38-years-old when he won it with Denver in 1999.
The retooled Texans will be looking to follow in the footsteps of the 2012 Indianapolis Colts and 2013 Kansas City Chiefs when they try to go from worst overall to the playoffs. Houston added new head coach Bill O'Brien and top overall draft pick Jadeveon Clowney to a team that already boasts J.J. Watt, Brian Cushing, Arian Foster and Andre Johnson. Barring injuries, the Texans appear a lock to become the season's most improved team and finish comfortably above last season's 2-14 record.

Arthroscopy is a surgery done to examine a joint visually. Most of the time, it is done on larger joints, like the knee or shoulder. A special tool called an arthroscope is used. It is an instrument that looks like a long tube with a miniature camera on the end. Repairs or corrections to the joint may be done by using the arthroscope and other tools.
It is used to see, diagnose, and treat problems inside your joint. The procedure is most often performed for the following reasons:
Complications are rare, but no procedure is completely risk free. If you are planning to have an arthroscopy, your doctor will review a list of possible complications, which may include:
Factors that may increase the risk of complications include:
The type of anesthesia will depend on the joint your doctor is looking at. You may receive one of the following:
The doctor will make tiny incisions in the skin along the joint. Special tools will be inserted through the incisions. The tools include the arthroscope. The picture from the arthroscope will show up on a screen so that the doctor can see the inside of your joint. The doctor may use the images to move around other tools that can cut and repair tissue in your joint.
For example:
Once the examination or surgery is done, the tools will be removed. The skin may be closed with stitches or clips. The incisions will be covered with a dressing. The fluid or tissue that was removed may be sent to a lab for examination.
Usually less than one hour, but this may be longer if repairs are being done.
Most patients report no pain during the procedure. After the procedure, pain medicines are used to treat pain.
The dressings can sometimes be removed as early as the next morning. When you return home after the procedure, do the following to help ensure a smooth recovery:
It takes 4-6 weeks for the joint to recover. You can probably go back to work or resume daily activities within a few days, as long your doctor approves. A specific activity and rehabilitation program may be suggested. This will help speed your recovery and protect future joint function.
Athletes often return to athletic competition within a few weeks.
Repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) by arthroscope may require a recovery time of 4-6 months and a more specialized rehabilitation program.
After arriving home, contact your doctor if any of the following occurs:
In case of an emergency, call for medical help right away.

text: By Jan RahnManaging Editor The American Red Cross was in Grant on Tuesday—a timely collection—since January has been designated as National Blood Donor Month. The donors who participated in Monday's bloodmobile have joined millions across the U.S. who have helped and continue to help ensure a stable blood supply for patients in need. Tuesday's quota was 65 donors. The bloodmobile is held five times during the year at the New Life Fellowship Church in Grant and is manned with nearly 18 volunteers who help coordinate it, set up tables and equipment, clean up the fellowship hall where it's held, and provide nutritional snacks/meals for donors. For over 40 years, Grant has taken part in this important lifesaving event. Two cookbooks were to be given away in a random drawing by the Area 14 CattleWomen during Tuesday's bloodmobile. According to coordinator Sandy Glenn, some donors with appointments for this week's bloodmobile had called on Monday to cancel. Glenn joins coordinators Mary Kent and Bonnie Taubenheim in setting up appointments and seeing to it that the bloodmobile in the community comes together and progresses smoothly. Last minute cancellations are typical this time of year. January is a difficult time for donations because of weather conditions and due to people being sick and unable to donate. Criteria that must bellowed in giving blood include being 17 years of age (16 with parental permission in some states), weighing at least 110 pounds, and being in generally good health.Facts About Blood Supply • The number of blood donations collected in the U.S. in a year: 16 million (2006). • The number of blood donors in the U.S. in a year: 9.5 million (2006). • The number of patients who receive blood in the U.S. in a year: 5 million (2006). • Share of the U.S. population eligible to give blood: Less than 38 percent. • Blood cannot be manufactured–it can only come from generous donors. • Type O-negative blood (red cells) can be transfused to patients of all blood types. It is always in great demand and often in short supply. • Type AB-positive plasma can be transfused to patients of all other blood types. AB plasma is also usually in short supply.Facts About Donating • The actual blood donation typically takes less than 10-12 minutes. The entire process, from the time of arrival to the time a donor leaves takes about an hour and 15 min. • The average adult has about 10 pints of blood in their body. Roughly 1 pint is given during a donation. • A healthy donor may donate red blood cells every 56 days, or double red cells every 112 days. • A healthy donor may donate platelets as few as seven days apart, but a maximum of 24 times a year. • All donated blood is tested for HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis and other infectious diseases before it can be released to hospitals. • Information given to the American Red Cross during the donation process is confidential. It may not be released without permission except as directed by law.About the Red Cross • The American Red Cross blood program started in 1940. • The American Red Cross supplies approximately 40 percent of the nation's blood supply. • The Red Cross provides blood for patients in nearly 3,000 hospitals across the U.S. • The Red Cross makes blood available to any patient who needs it—patients are not required to find donors to replace the blood they use (a practice common in Europe and some U.S. blood banks) allowing the patient and their family to focus on recovery. • Eighty percent of the blood donations given to the Red Cross are collected at mobile blood drives set up in communities. • The American Red Cross works with more than 50,000 blood drive sponsors each year to hold more than 200,000 blood drives.

I couldn't find the rom for Metal Slug 5
Yeah, Metal Slug 4 was like 84 or 87MB

Tenkomori Shooting is an alright game in the 1998 category, would have to specify whether we go easy, medium or hard route though
I'd vote Guwange for 1999, although Gigawing is also a good choice
For 2000 - Maybe the King of Fighters 2000? Havent played any of the games listed as released in 2000 so this would be a stab in the dark

Ok. I was gathering ROMs and checking settings for this tourney so I can just click and go for the next few weeks. I ran into a few problems and have a few questions.
Does Bump n Jump have a parent rom? I have bnj.zip. It has 3 different bnj.bin files in it but I cannot get it to load.Bump n Jump has a parent rom, Burnin' Rubber.
2.) I am still using wolfMAME.106. How do I change the dip settings for the Neo Geo games? "Tab" just brings up the Neo Geo parent rom settings. If the 2 Metal Slug games are default then cool. Would a newer wolfMAME avoid this problem? I have .138 and .140 as well.
Everything else checked out well for me though.

I was wondering if anybody could clear something up for me on Lock N Chase. Is there any way to control where the little red door pops up when you hit the button? Half the time I use it, it puts a door right in front of me and I trap myself and die.

Runners' spirit lights up Chelsea's Run
San Diego Upon crossing the finish line, Megan Barnes tossed the sunflower she had been clutching into the air.
"This is all for you, Chelsea," shouted the 17-year-old San Diego runner as she looked up at the sky. "We miss you. You're in our hearts."
Barnes wasn't the only one feeling the spirit of Finish Chelsea's Run. An estimated 6,000-plus runners, walkers and stroller-pushers cheered, clapped and high-fived each other along the 3.1-mile course at Balboa Park on Saturday morning.
"I never met Chelsea, but I feel like I know her. She's a real inspiration to all of us," said Barnes, wiping sweat from her forehead. "I'm glad so many people are here to celebrate her."
The third annual 5K run/walk is dedicated to the memory of Poway teen Chelsea King, who was killed in 2010 by a registered sex offender while on a training run in Rancho Bernardo Community Park.
"Seeing all the people at the race just takes your breath away," said Chelsea's mother, Kelly King, who gave hugs and warm smiles to well-wishers at the event.
She, along with her husband Brent and son Tyler, came back to San Diego from Illinois for the run.
"I can't begin to describe what this has meant to our lives, our spirit and our souls," she said. "It's one of the most joyful things that has happened since we lost Chelsea."
The official starter of this year's run was Allison Cave, Amber Dubois' little sister. In 2009, Dubois was abducted and slain by the same man who killed Chelsea a year later, John Gardner.
The first Finish Chelsea's Run was in March 2010, when more than 3,500 local runners met at the Rancho Bernardo Community Park to complete the run the athletic Poway High School senior had started when she was attacked and killed just weeks earlier. That outpouring of support convinced the Kings to turn a spontaneous community event into an annual charity run in honor of their daughter.
"The race is not only a tribute to Chelsea, but it's also a tribute to this community with all its compassion and hope and spirit that says we want to protect our kids," Brent King said.
Proceeds from the run benefit Chelsea's Light, a foundation started by the Kings to award scholarships to San Diego students and spread awareness of Chelsea's Law, which calls for tougher sentences for sex criminals.
"This is my second Chelsea's Run. I'm doing this for my daughter and all children," said Allison Schuler of Chula Vista, as she pushed a stroller carrying her 18-month-old daughter, Kiera. "If doing something like this can help support better child protection and safety, then I'd do a run every week if I had to."
The foundation's Sunflower Scholarship Fund — named after Chelsea's favorite bloom — awards academic scholarships to 10 college-bound San Diego high school seniors annually. In the past two years, over $130,000 in scholarships have been awarded. Last year more than 300 students from 73 schools sent in essay applications, each read by the King family. The scholarships range from $2,000 to $10,000.
"We look for kids who love to give back and just want to brighten everyone else's day," Brent King said. "There's a whole lot of really incredible kids across San Diego, and they bring all of us hope for the next generation. These kids are the change-makers in action."
One of those kids is John Zamora, 18, a 2012 recipient of a Sunflower Scholarship.
"I'm am so grateful to be part of Chelsea's Light's mission — to help protect our youth," said the Poway High School graduate who now attends the University of Southern California.

Rated 2 out of 5 by 1 reviewer.
Rated 2 out of 5 by mlouh You get what you pay for Normally I don't bother to write reviews, but in this case you need to know what you're buying. The window illusion these sheers create is really lovely. My bedroom windows are softened by these sheers that reflect the woods and birds outside perfectly. They allow for privacy yet let light into the room. However, the panels I received are poorly constructed. 1) Unlike the set shown on the web page, the horizontal lines (branches) do not align across panels. 2) The panels are not the same length. When they are hung the bottom is uneven. 3) The rod pockets at the top of the panels are different depths. 4) The sewing tension on the outside seams was incorrect on one panel, creating puckered edges, plus that panel is shorter on the sides and longer in the center. It's my opinion that sheers should be identical and perfect, with identical pockets and hem depths, and they certainly should be the same distance from the floor. (Yes, we used a level to install the rod, and the floor is level as well.) With some careful alterations I should be able to fix these panels, except for the side puckers. When it's all said and done, considering I need to alter, I would have been better off buying the fabric and making them myself. February 27, 2014

1931 Ford Pickup - Washington SuedeWritten by Eric Geisert on March 1, 2009 Wes Mallory's'31 Ford Pickup
What goes around comes around . . . eventually. Many hot rodders are unknowing custodians of a hobby that may, one day, slip into history. (If you think original '34 Ford parts are hard to find now, just wait another 15 years!) Luckily, there are still enough guys out there who are willing to take a beat-up old rust bucket that, for the past 30 years, saw service as a diverter in a water channel on some old farm and be able to, over a period of time, transform it into a cool-looking hot rod.
You never go into it thinking "I'll just put this pile of parts in the corner of my garage for the next decade," but sometimes it just works out that way. Just ask Wes Mallory, from Cynthiana, Kentucky. He and his 12-year-old son, Dean, were looking for a project to work on after finishing up a primered, fenderless Model A Tudor.
They had found out about a rust-free late Model A sedan body in Ohio and, when they went to pick it up, spotted a '32 truck cab hidden in an open shed amidst a bunch of salvaged lumber. When they asked, they were told "If you buy the sedan then you can have the cab for $400." An old metal feed sign had been nailed down over the roof, but it looked to be in decent shape (they believe it might have had a history in South Dakota), so they bought it, too, and hauled it home.
As with most projects when they're fresh and new, Wes and Dean wanted to get going on the new car and they took the cab to a shop to have the roof chopped and filled. The body guy kept the cab for months and, in the meantime, Wes started on another project, so by the time they got the cab back, it was relegated to the corner of the garage, where it sat for the next seven years.
In the fall of 2005, while walking a swap meet in Louisville, Wes spotted a low-slung, hardcore roadster that really impressed him. It had been built by Jason Grimes, a young hot rod builder working in Lebanon Junction, just 30 minutes south of Louisville. After finding Jason, Wes talked to him about working on his truck, and soon the truckload of parts was being delivered to Jason's shop, aptly named The Garage.
The concept was to keep it simple-all they wanted was a fenderless highboy pickup, and they also told Jason the doors on the truck didn't seem to want to close. A few weeks later, after Grimes got the cab set up on a chassis, he told Wes the reason the doors didn't work well was because the guy who had chopped it years ago had tweaked the cab so bad that it would be next to impossible to fix without cutting out the floor. Everyone decided it was for the best and, besides, Wes kind of liked the idea that the truck would now be channeled.
That decided, Grimes went about building a basic hot rod chassis, setting it up on a 103-inch wheelbase using a Brookville Roadsters frame as a base to work from. Grimes C-notched the frame in the rear, and set up the rear end with an eight-inch Ford with 3.55:1 gears and Carrera coilovers while the front used a Pete & Jake's four-inch-drop axle and a POSIES spring. A Vega box controls the steering, and the chassis rolls with '32 Ford 18-inch wheels (the rears were widened two inches) shod in Firestone 4.50/5.50 and 7.50 rubber.
For power, you can't get much more simple than a small-block Chevy, which is what was installed between the framerails. There are some performance items, such as the Edelbrock manifold and carb, the radiator from U.S. Radiator, and the Taylor wires, but with the addition of some early Corvette valve covers, it's basically a small-block Chevy backed to a TH350 trans.
However, when it came to the body, Grimes had some other ideas. After he got the cab to sit right on the chassis, the Model A bed (from Brookville Roadsters) looked disproportionally long, so he shortened it. Wes wanted to keep the fully louvered hood sides but, since the body was channeled, that meant Jason had to modify the bottom edge of the hood sides to get everything to line up correctly. Louvers became a central theme for the hot rod, with Jason then adding them to an extension he'd fab'd for under the bed (just behind the rear fenders) as well as in the hood top, tailgate, and rolled rear pan. Inside the bed, which is finished with an oak and chrome strip combo, is an aluminum gas tank from Moon.
Inside the cab a '32 Ford roadster dash took the place of the original Model A unit, and it was filled with a handful of Auto Meter gauges. A tall shifter from Gennie and a white Moon steering wheel bolted to an ididit column makes up the rest of the control center. And since there are no tell-tale vents cut in the dash, you wouldn't know there is a Vintage Air AC unit hidden from view. With the essentials dialed in, Larry Sneed then came along and made the custom bench seat, which was covered in the same red pleated vinyl that was used on the doorpanels.
When it came time to paint the truck, the original plan had it going to a black primer but, with all of the extra work to give the truck a better appearance, it was decided that Washington Blue-albeit a suede version-was what the truck really needed, plus it would set it apart from any other truck out there. After a few more additions ('34 Ford commercial headlights, '37 Ford taillights, etc.), it was ready to make its debut on the floor of the Detroit Autorama in 2008. It turned out good for Grimes, as his work was not only rewarded with Wes receiving a second place trophy in the Altered Rod Pickup class, but Jason took home the Driven Award, which was sponsored by Lokar and presented by Street Rodder's Editorial Director Brian Brennan.
Now that the truck is back in the hands of its owner, Wes reports that he and his son, who is now off to college, have already racked up a few hundred miles on the truck, and it still leaves them grinning. He says it runs and handles great and, thanks to Jason Grimes, his mismatched collection of junk got a chance to evolve into one unique ride.

The hot rod look comes through in the tailgate, which has 30 louvers in the mid section, which echo the louvers in the rear rolled pan.Jason Grimes fabricated many parts for the truck, including the custom mounts for the blue dot '37 Ford taillights. Another set of louvers also run down a bed extension that Jason fab'd.

Welcome to my Healthy Living Blog. I'm Mary Miles and I'm a holistic health councilor. While I'm a health councilor, I too struggle with my health due to long-term weight control issues. I started this website to share my weight loss experiences and knowledge.
If you ever think you are alone in battling your weight issues or feel you are too busy, please consider these recent statistics from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:
American adult obesity prevalence:
- Over 1/3 of adult American's are obese. That's about 78 Million
- Another 1/3 of adult American's are overweight which is another 78 Million
Why being over weight is expensive and risky:
- Annual medical costs of people overweight is $1,429 higher than people of normal weight
- The average life-expectancy of obese American's is 6.2 years shorter than people of normal weight
On average at least 25% of American women are actively trying to lose weight with the majority failing to reach their goals. But don't give up! It may take a few attempts but keep researching and trying new ideas.
To get you started I've compiled 20 tricks I've used over the years with my patients and even myself to help lose weight.

We're currently eyeing on Zimbra, well, trying, to migrate to it from Exchange and Active Directory. Getting Zimbra to run was a breeze, and kudos to the devs for that. The wall that we currently hit was trying to get Samba and Zimbra to talk together so that Samba can act as the domain controller/login for the Windows workstations as it authenticates through the Zimbra LDAP.
Following Greg's article: http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?tit...nt_in_Admin_UI
The problem that we currently encountered is at the samba portion. Samba can't seem to create the domain in the Zimbra LDAP.
"sambaDomainName=COMPANY,dc=company,dc=com" invalid DN. Here's the exact error:
Trying to add the domain manually through the zimbra_samba zimlet provided in the HOWTO rendered the same results.Code:Apr 26 08:06:07 server slapd[7768]: do_add: invaliddn (sambaDomainName=COMPANY,dc=company,dc=com)
EDIT: Here's some more information about the server:
- Fedora Core 6
- Zimbra Store/LDAP on a separate server
- Zimbra MTA on a separate server
- Samba on a different server running on Ubuntu 6.10
Where should I exactly start looking? Will appreciate all of your help.

We are deploying Zimbra in a test environment for evaluation purposes. We have an exchange 2010 server we want to be the primary server.
The exchange server receives messages from the zimbra server. However, the exchange server does not send email to the Zimbra server. The queue lists 'local loop detected.'
I have configured a send connector to send email to zimbra-server.mydomain.com to the zimbra server's IP address as a relay host and it has a cost of 1.
Exchange Configuration:
1. Send and Receive connectors for Zimbra server.
2. For the user hosted on the Zimbra server, I created a mail user and associated with the Active Directory account as follows:
a. Enable-MailUser -Identity 'email@example.com' -Alias 'user' -ExternalEmailAddress 'SMTP:email@example.com' -PrimarySMTPAddress 'firstname.lastname@example.com'
Zimbra Configuration

Gov. Ronnie Musgrove is calling a special legislative session for June 21 to push an economic package to support expansion of the Nissan Project in Canton.
Nissan has a $930 million plant under construction in Madison County. Officials had hoped Nissan's plan to boost sales worldwide would bring jobs to the state.
Musgrove says the expansion could be good news for East Mississippi. With Nissan suppliers locating in Forest, Greenvile and Tupelo, Musgrove says the circle for suppliers is expanding, and will do so even more if Nissan expands.
Nissan officials say they intend to boost production by a million vehicles and raise profit margins by March 2005.

I don't have a picture of his groups, but they are very similar to the picture below (sub-moa). My buddies rifle is also a Win, M70. I attached an example of what the load can due taken from the websight. The only difference is my buddy shoots Nosler Accubonds, which shoot just as good as the Hornady's listed in photo.

I just found out about eM Client - E-mail Client with Calendar
Apparently a CalDAV + IMAP client, it seems like it could be a good alternative to Outlook for Windows people who want a "normal" client app instead Zimbra Web Client/Zimbra Desktop. (I suppose Mulberry would be another option but the lack of recent updates is a bit off-putting. On top of that, I never hear about anyone using it in a business context, but maybe I don't get around enough.)
Does anyone have any experience with eM client and Zimbra?
