Chris Evert + Greg Norman have announced a formal separation after only 15 months of marriage according to a statement released through Greg's LA spokesperson Bart Collins.
The couple requested privacy for themselves and their families and said, "We will remain friends and supportive of one another's family." The pair have not indicated whether they will divorce.
The history of the relationship has been well-documented, including claims made in 2007 by Chris' ex-husband and Greg's former best friend, Andy Mills, who blamed the golfer for ruining his 18-year marriage to the tennis Hall of Famer.
Last July, Chrissie publicly admitted to the affair for the first time but tried to explain it away during an interview with Vogue saying, "It was like an irresistible force. How do you explain something like that?"
Upon hearing of the separation, Greg's ex-wife Laura Andrassy had her own explanation. "They say opposites attract. Here were two people very much alike - high profile and narcissistic people - and that would make a relationship difficult," said Laura.
It was Chrissie's third marriage and second for Greg.
Ouch. Well, I can't say the news of their separation is a shocker. Unfortunately, it's not at all.

The opposite of a surprise: Chris has proven many times that she -- how shall we say? -- craves variety in her male relationships. Think of the counless high-profile fuckings she received over the years - and those are just the ones we know about. The only woman I can think of who switches cock more prolfiically than Chris is Martin Hingis.ReplyDelete
Can't wait to find out who Chrissie's fourth husband will be. I bet we'll know in a matter of months. Remember how, when she'd play Martina, everyone made a big deal of how it was the freaky dyke and her freakish entourage vs. the All-American Catholic Good Girl?
Not exactly.
Wow, what a crass comment. You probably don't know the woman so have no business making such statements. We don't know the reason but all can agree they probably should have figured how their lives would connect (children, homes, businesses) before they got married.ReplyDelete

The basics for pairing food and wine
One of the main components of my role as a sommelier in a dining room is to assist guests in selecting a wine to pair with their dinner. When the pairing works, often the question is asked, "How did I do that?" Truth be told, it is not an exact science but a collection of guidelines that I use to complement food and wine.
The first one is easy: white wine with fish, red wine with meats. The lighter the dish, the lighter the wine style should be. This is a great rule of thumb that will guide you through any wine list.
Next would be to either complement or contrast elements of the dish. For example, for a filet with a rich potato accompaniment and mushroom sauce, select a full-bodied red, like cabernet, malbec or syrah. Red wines that contain a lot of tannins and have a good backbone of acidity will cut through the richness of this dish. Conversely, if you have halibut with a lemon sauce, then look to a high-acid white to pair with the lemon components of this dish.
Now to tackle more difficult items that can be tricky: stinky cheese, salad, dessert and asparagus. As a general rule, pair stinky cheese with sweet wine. The saltiness of the cheese and the sweetness of a late harvest riesling or sauterne-style wine are a match made in heaven. The sweetness of the dessert wine softens the smell of the cheese and brings out the underlying flavors of the cheese. Stay away from a big tannic red, as it will encourage the cheese to taste like it smells.
Asparagus contains a sulfur compound known as methyl mercaptan. This compound can make wines taste metallic or artificially sweet. You need a high-acid white to pair with this devilish vegetable. A few suggestions would be New Zealand sauvignon blanc, gruner veltliner (my go-to pairing) or even a sparkling wine. If the asparagus is grilled, pinot noir is a great option for a red. Do not pair asparagus with big chardonnays and tannic reds; they are wine pairing rivals that will leave a bad taste in your mouth.
Most people do not think of the salad course as a wine-friendly part of the meal, however, finding a wine that is higher in acidity than the vinegar that is used in the dressing works best as a pairing. If you pair a wine that is lower in acidity, the result will just make the wine taste flat. Rosés are great in the summer with an heirloom tomato salad, Pinot grigios from Italy work well, or try a muscadet from the Loire. The rosé would also be great with a grilled asparagus salad, as long as it's a dry style.
Lastly, find a dessert wine that is sweeter than the dessert. There is a big misconception that dessert wines are syrupy sweet and they certainly do exist. However, most great dessert wines, including sauternes, TBAs (aka trockenbeerenauslese wines), malmsey madeira, that are rich in texture provide an underlying backbone of acidity that keeps them for being too sweet.
Sometimes it is more important to know what does not work in wine pairings than what does. Here are a few of my "No-Way Rules." Do not pair:
• Big tannic reds with raw oysters. The wine will have a metallic flavor.
• Tannic reds with spicy or fishy dishes (like salmon, anchovies, etc.). The food will seem overly spicy. A jalapeño will taste like a habanero.
• A tannic red really brings out the fishy flavors in a fish. This pairing makes the fish taste old or overly fishy.

Column: For Mickelson, it's not easy being rich
It's not always easy being rich, as Phil Mickelson reminded us the other day. There are taxes to pay - apparently lots of them - and the price of a tank of jet fuel seems to go up every day.
A million dollars a week just doesn't go as far as it used to, now that the wealthy are paying more in taxes. For Mickelson, things have gotten so bad that he's thinking of moving from California so the state doesn't get a cut of the $47 million that Golf Digest estimates he made last year.
Thankfully, it's not quite to the point where Tiger Woods and his buddies need to hold a car wash to raise money for Lefty. He has, after all, made an estimated $400 million in the last decade and even the greediest of tax collectors doesn't take it all.
And he does seem to realize - though a bit belatedly - that one thing rich people shouldn't do is complain to people who aren't rich about the taxes they have to pay. Mickelson was barely done moaning about the taxman the other day when he began a round of apologies that continued Wednesday at his hometown tournament in San Diego.
"I've made some dumb, dumb, mistakes, and, obviously, talking about this stuff was one of them," Mickelson said.
Not to worry. There are ways to stay put at home and still have enough left over for a few of the Five Guys hamburger franchises he loves so much.
Among them are:
WIN LESS: What good is winning when you have to pay so much of your earnings to the government? Sure, it goes against Mickelson's competitive instincts, but there's a good living to be made in the middle of the pack on the PGA Tour, where almost everyone is a millionaire. This week's winning payout at Torrey Pines is $1,080,000, but why deal with the anguish of giving so much of it away? Luckily Mickelson has already taken an important step in that direction by winning only two times since capturing the Masters three years ago.
THINK SILVER: Back in the days when the Tournament of Champions was held in Las Vegas and people still had silver dollars, the winner was paid every year with a wheelbarrow full of the coins. It might take a dump truck to hold enough silver dollars for today's huge purses, but imagine the fun Mickelson could have when the IRS comes by to take its share.
SMALLER PLANE: Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus were always plane guys, and so is Mickelson. He saved enough to buy a jet of his own that seats 14, allowing him to do things like play in the Northern Trust Open in Los Angeles and still be home in San Diego every night to tuck the kids in bed. But the Gulfstream 5 is a bit pricey at a reported $60 million, and it sucks up the gas. Maybe Mickelson could downsize to a used Cessna instead, or share a jet with Tiger. If all else fails, Southwest Airlines has a ton of flights out of San Diego every day, and his golf bag can fly free.
GIVE IT UP: Golf memberships are expensive, and Mickelson surely has more than one. But he's always seemed like a man of the people, so why not play golf at the local muni? The downside is six-hour rounds and greens with ruts in them as deep as the divots Mickelson takes with his 64-degree wedge. Still, it's a deal at 25 bucks or so a round, plus a few more for a pull cart.

Sometimes corporate communications seems like one of those crazy George Carlin oxymorons, like jumbo shrimp or mandatory options. I should know, Ive worked in corp comms at four companies. Too often, we tell the world about our new strategy or solutions with busy PowerPoint slides that look like pages torn out of Wheres Waldo? or stuffy white papers that are denser than a black hole.
Thats what I love about this new downloadable book, The Business Impact of Enterprise Asset Management. It covers a complex subject in a clear, simple, engaging style. On top of that, its free, as in no charge, and free of jargon too. Thats right, nobodys going to push your envelope, level your playing field or shift your paradigms. I gave it the acid test and searched all 57 pages for the word synergy. Not a single hit.
Pam Burton of IBM Maximo says the books goal is to deal with the serious challenges faced by EAM customers in a lighthearted manner. Mission accomplished. There are even cartoons in this thing. It may be clear and simple, but the book is grounded in solid logic, hard-hitting facts, and expertise from contributors who come from inside and outside IBM. Still, Pam reports that the final product passes the spouse test. An EAM customer told her that he took it home to his wife, who read it and said she finally understands what he does for a living. Then she hit him with a frying pan. Just kidding about that last part, but you get the picture.
The point is, the book serves a noble purpose, because enterprise asset management should be a key part of any comprehensive service management, risk management, energy management almost any management plan in the whole business/IT cosmos. But EAM is often misunderstood by people in traditional IT and business roles both inside and outside of IBM. This book can help set the record straight.
Imagine the advantages of a single unified platform that collects information from all assets across a diverse, dispersed infrastructure. Not just obvious IT assets such as laptops, desktops and servers, but handheld devices in remote oil fields, sensors on trucks highballing down distant highways, or monitors in the depths of nuclear plants. These things have IP addresses and collect important data too data that should be considered in any comprehensive management approach. How else could you have a truly accurate energy management, risk management or service management solution in place?
The book also shows how an integrated EAM platform (like our comprehensive Maximo portfolio, which offers tailored EAM solutions for everything from government to utilities) can also help customers tackle other serious challenges -- like dealing with an aging workforce thats retiring in droves and taking invaluable expertise with them.
Pam says shes a big believer in making communications more accessible
than the run-of-the-mill corporate material.
IMHO, she and her team did it. What
do you think? Isnt this one of the
better ways to corporately communicate?

A community is remembering a woman whose life was cut short just one week ago after her body was found inside of a burned mobile home.
Friends of Terri Gwyn dressed in purple as they gathered at the Neshoba County Library on Saturday night to not only remember their friend, but to also take a stand against domestic violence. Friends tell Newscenter 11 that Gwyn was involved in an abusive relationship at the time of her death and that it's important for them to encourage other women to get out of abusive relationships.
"No matter what they tell you, no matter what they say to you, if they hit you, if they mentally abuse you, please leave," Tiffany Moore says. "Not another chance, nothing that they say to you should make you want to stay in that relationship."
Gwyn's live-in boyfriend, Daniel Williamson, is charged with arson and murder in the case. His bond has been denied.

Cooking with Fresh Mint
I started gardening with just a little strip of dirt at the back of my yard, but in the spring of 2008 my brother Mark built raised beds for me, which greatly improved the garden and made it easier to maintain. (Thanks Mark, love you!)
Mark also put two skinny herb beds across the top of the garden, since I love to grow herbs. I loved the way these look in late summer when the herbs are overflowing the beds!
In 2010 I grew tomatoes in those beds for the first time, including three plants of my favorite green zebra tomatoes.
Improvements to the garden area continued in late 2010 when I added a new fence, another herb bed along the fence, a shed for tools, and converted my garden to drip irrigation with weed barrier/gravel around the beds for the whole garden area. I'm excited about these improvements and can't wait for gardening 2011!

Video: Teen shot with BB gun on school bus
ATLANTA -- When Abby Zuniga came home Tuesday afternoon, she immediately noticed something wrong with her daughter's face; Emily Farias had a round cut just below her left eye.
"It was swollen. So when I asked her what happened to her face, she said she got shot," Zuniga said. "I was shocked."
She found out it was a BB gun that injured her daughter, one fired by a fellow middle school student aboard the school bus that afternoon.
"The driver didn't look up until he heard everybody screaming, then he only looked up for a second and looked back down," Emily said.
According to the Atlanta Police Department, a male student hid the BB gun in a bush outside of Sutton Middle School, then retrieved it before boarding the bus Tuesday afternoon. Witnesses told investigators the student accidentally shot Emily in the face and when confronted by another student, also shot that student in the back of the head.
Emily's mother told 11Alive News she was even more upset because no one from the school called her to let her know about the incident. Emily said it wasn't until she arrived at school the next day and a coach happened to ask about her injury that authorities called Atlanta Police.
Zuniga said she never spoke to anyone until she went to the school Wednesday afternoon; an email to the principal went unanswered, she said.
"A courtesy call from the administration saying, 'hey, we have your daughter here, we're aware of the situation, don't worry, we're investigating and we'll get to the bottom of it' -- I haven't gotten anything," she said.
Atlanta Public Schools spokesman Stephen Alford told 11Alive News the district is investigating the incident. He added that the principal is away on a business trip this week, and Zuniga arrived on campus Wednesday before officials had a chance to call her. Robocalls and emails were sent out Thursday afternoon, he said, and the school will send letters home to parents Friday.
The alleged shooter has been suspended from school. Atlanta police said he was arrested at school Thursday and will be charged with aggravated assault.

My other finished and the biggest problem we had was that the pieces snapped together crooked or didn't fit together at all, even with the wax.

CHEROKEE � The U.S. Department of Agriculture wants to hear from the public on a proposal to set new standards for the care and treatment of bears kept in roadside zoos.
The Asheville Citizen-Times reported that the group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals cited Cherokee Bear Zoo in its request for changes in the Animal Welfare Act.
The current law has rules for the care of cats, dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, marine mammals, primates and rabbits, but says nothing about bears, except for polar bears.
PETA wants rules to ensure the proper care for captive bears. It suggests doing away with pit-type enclosures, the creation of minimum space standards and requiring den and pool access and regular feeding schedules.
The department wants the comments by Jan. 27.

Making Friends at Melrose Storytime
The library isn't just a great place for learning. It's a great place for children to meet and make friends.
On Thursday, June 7, about 40 children ages 3 to 8 gathered at the Melrose Public Library for a Leap Into Reading storytime. Branch Assistant Jennifer Frank led the storytime. As well as working part-time at the library, Jennifer is a kindergarten teacher and she has all the educator's skills for keeping kids focused and organized. Some were making snacks, some were making masks, and some, like the children in the photograph, made frogs on a stick while chatting with friends. They all learned about the life cycle of a frog and about other words beginning with the "f" sound.
Each of the 32 Great River Regional Library locations is offering a Leap Into Reading storytime this year, as well as the Summer Reading Program and lots of special programming using Legacy funding. Find out what's available at your local library.

Stroker McGurk Cartoon Series - McGurk Mementos - Rods & CustomsWritten by on September 1, 1998 Stroker Was More Than A Joke
Cartoons: Tom Medley
Except for a brief comeback bid between 1964 and 1965, Tom Medley's legendary Stroker McGurk cartoon series ended more than 40 years ago. Yet McGurk's eight-year run-starting in March 1948 and finishing with the October 1955 issue of HOT ROD-served as a harbinger. Medley's fertile imagination predated wheelies, ram-air systems, drag chutes, blown overheads, multi-engine dragsters, sleepers, gassers and vintage tin, and aftermarket kits that didn't fit. So sit back for the next four pages and see why Stroker McGurk became hot rodding's favorite foul-up.
More Photos From This Article View Slideshow
Stroker's favorite street piece was the classic highboy, a fender-free '29 roadster body on '32 rails. What made him so popular were the self-inflicted wounds that every rodder experienced.March 1948
 Medley's first Stroker panel appeared in the third issue of HOT ROD and reflected the circle-track editorial content of those early issues.November 1948
 Medley's close association with Manny Ayulo, the famed track roadster and IndyCar driver, led to this six-panel layout featuring Ayulo's #44 '27 T. The twist was in the victory kiss.December 1949
 Hoodscoops and ram tubes were just beginning to appear at the lakes when Stroker took fresh-air induction to its tuba-logical extreme. Blessed excess has always been a rodder's trait.March 1950
 This sequence includes two other elements of HRM's editorial package: car shows and Parts With Appeal. Look closely at the third panel and note the guy wearing the beanie. That's Eric Rickman just before he joined the staff.June 1951
 By 1951 drag racing had become a major theme in HRM's editorial direction. In keeping with Editor Wally Park's "dedication to safety," Stroker did his part by using a war-surplus parachute to augment his speed-challenged brakes.July 1952
 When ultralight rail jobs began appearing at Santa Ana, Pomona, Paradise Mesa, and Colton, Stroker envisioned the wheelie problem and solved it in his unique, "inches are everything" manner.April 1953
 We don't know if Medley had modern tractor pullers in mind when he sketched this 'toon featuring multiple fuel-burning flatheads in tandem. This is another version of the riff, "one substitute for cubic inches is more cubic inches."
April 1954
 A certain antagonism has always existed between owners of rods and customs. Remember the "If it don't go, chrome it" jeer? Stroker's "lead slip" put-down was aimed at the customizers' overuse of the then-popular body filler.July 1954
 Various "sleeper" themes appeared throughout Stroker's eight-year run, including this full flatty-powered "Uncle Daniel" '27 T. That it was built by a hayseed wasn't unusual. Farmers always had stout hot rods.

Regulation of human neural progenitor cell proliferation by Ryk-mediated Wnt signaling
Human ES cells can be used to make healthy neurons to replace the cells that are lost in neurological diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. This holds great hope for future treatment of these disorders. Our research aims to produce neurons from ES cells more efficiently. During the process of differentiation to form nerve cells, human ES cells first develop into primitive neural progenitor cells before they become mature functional neurons. Our research focuses on how we can expand the neural progenitor cell population.
We have found that a cell surface protein called Wnt can expand neural progenitor cells. However, it is not clear how this protein can make human neural progenitor cells grow. This proposal will address the question. We will determine which surface molecules can recognize Wnt and how these signals control cell growth. This proposed research will help us to find a method to expand neural progenitor cells and thus make more neurons in the future. This will eventually contribute to the clinical application of human embryonic stem cells in the treatment of neurological diseases.
Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson diseases, and neuronal injuries caused by stroke and trauma, will result in neuronal cell loss. Current treatments cannot replace or recover the neuronal loss. Our proposed research ultimately may lead to the development of an effective treatment for the neuronal cell loss. Once we find a detailed Wnt pathway to control neural progenitor cell expansion, there will be many possible clinical applications. Transplant-ready neuronal tissues, gene therapy, and drugs targeting the Wnt pathway to promote neuronal regeneration are some of the treatments of the future for neurological disorders. Our finding will facilitate the progress of developing those new, promising treatments. The success of our project in neural progenitor cells expansion will greatly improve the quality of health for Californians.
The grant investigates to grow human neural progenitor cells by manipulating Ryk-mediated Wnt signaling. We discovered that Ryk signaling regulates neurogenesis and cleavage of Ryk is important for this processes.
Neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson, as well as neuronal injuries caused by stroke or trauma, result in neuronal cell loss. Current treatments cannot replace or repair the damaged cells. Our proposed research may ultimately lead to the development of an effective treatment for neuronal cell loss.
We have set up an effective system for growing neural progenitor cells derived from human ES cells. We have performed experiments aimed at expanding neural stem cell populations and growing neurons. This could lead to many possible clinical applications.

CGEM Problem - Worm Adjustment
Posted 08 July 2010 - 05:52 PM
I took my CGEM out 2 nights ago, Tuesday night, and I experienced trouble. When slewing in Declination, the mount was making some wierd noises. Forgive me for this... Normally, the mount just made the familiar "rrreeeeeeeeeeeeee" noise when slewing. Mine was going "rrrreeeeeeeeerrrrruuuuuuuuuurrrrrreeeeeeeeerrrrruuuuurrrr". It's hard to describe a sound in words, but it sounded like the mount was binding or at least the drive was encountering alternating areas of increasing and decreasing resistance. Coupled with this was the inability to autoguide reliably.
Wednesday, I removed the control board from the side of the mount and pulled off the front plug for the polar scope. I looked around as best I could at the limited portion of the gear train that's visible. Nothing looked out of normal. I decided to head outside again for further investigation. The same stuff was going on, but I actually managed some good subs of M8 (posted in the DSLR forum). My guiding was still failing every so often, and the declination distance was going off the graph in PHD. Here's a shot of what PHD was showing.
I pulled the plug early last night, and this morning, I did some more investigation. I found that when moving the declination axis by hand, there were in fact 'sticky' areas.
I searched around the CGEM Yahoo group, and I found information posted by a "tmwaits1" about worm gear slop. I'm not sure if this gentlemen is a member here, but if he is, I want to extend a huge thank you for the information you have made available on the CGEM group.
I got to thinking that I have the opposite problem going on. I don't have slop, but I have binding. I decided to make adjustments to the worm gear slop. After doing so, I don't think that my mount has ever moved more freely by hand (with the clutches disengaged) and it has never been quiter.
Here's a little rundown of what I did...
Declination Adjustment
First, loosen the Declination Clutch
Next, you have to slightly loosen the four 5mm hex bolts that hold the worm block.
Left side - 2 bolts (control panel side)
Right side - 2 bolts
Next, you have to alternately adjust 2 2mm hex bolts to move the worm gear closer to or further away from engagement.
Tightening the top 2mm hex will bring the worm into more positive engagement and will reduce slop. If overdone, you can also create binding (my situation).
Tightening the bottom 2mm hex will pull the worm away from engagement, increasing slop, but relieving binding.
That's it, just tighten the 4 5mm hex bolts back up and you're good to go. With the Declination clutch tightened, you should have minimal slop and no binding. It make take a little back and forth through this to get you where you want to be. During the adjustment, I would tighten the clutch and check slop, then loosen the clutch and feel for any stiction. Just find the happy medium.
RA Adjustment
This is the same deal as Declination, but with different bolts.
RA Left side - 2 bolts (control panel side)
RA Right side - 2 bolts
RA 2mm hex - front - tightening this will pull the worm into more positive engagement and decrease slop.
RA 2mm hex - rear - tightening this will move the worm away from engagement and increase slop, but relieve stiction
Be careful that two of the 2mm hex bolts for the RA and Declination worms are right by eachother on the back side of the mount. The top one is RA, and the bottom is Declination. Just pointing that out to make sure the pictures above are clear.
Anyway, I thought I would post this info here becasue it may help someone else in the future. I'm not sure how my mount got to the sticking point, because I've never adjusted anything in the past, but never the less, it did.
I'm pretty confident that this is going to solve the problem I was having, but the true test will be another imaging run. I've got some random clouds around now, and if I said I was going to spend another night in the back yard, you'd all probably wind up speaking about me in the past tense. In lieu of that, it will be a little while until I am able to fully retest this.

Thanks for the post and great pictures and explanation. My problem with my CGEM is similar but only in the RA axis. You probably saw my posts in the group about this and John's posts. He shipped his mount back to Celestron for checkout / adjustment but I took another route. I've shipped mine off to be HyperTuned with Teflon and ceramic hybrid upgrades. I'll post in a separate thread once it comes back and I get a chance to test it out.
Hope your adjustments solve your problem! There is such a lack of info online about actually doing any self-service on the CGEM. Much of what I've read and heard say it's the same as the Atlas, but hit me with a stick, I just don't see it. They ARE different enough physically and electronically that I've been very hesitant about doing any adjustments..... Good luck!
Posted 08 July 2010 - 07:34 PM
Hopefully your mount comes back soon. Everything I have read about Hypertuning has been positive. I'm sure you'll be happy with it.
I totally agree that there is almost no information to be had anywhere about CGEM adjustments. In fact, the post on the CGEM group that I mentioned before actually contained pictures of an EQ6 mount. The basic principle of the adjustment is the same, but some of the bolts are placed differently.
Ultimately, I intend to get myself inside an observatory on my property, and when that happens, I plan on upgrading my mount. If it weren't for that long-range goal, I would have probably sent my CGEM for Hypertuning. As it is, I took matters into my own hands. We'll see how it goes. I have a little travel over the weekend and the beginning of next week, but hopefully I'll have another night of imaging by the end of next weekend.

In all honesty, I don't fault Celestron or the mount. I don't think it is unreasonable for the worm gears to need adjusting after years of service.
Atlas / EQ6 owners have also had the problem I described. It seems to be fairly normal to make worm adjustments over time.

I just wanted to thank you for posting this, I have filed your procedure and pictures away for future use. Good luck with the new house and darker skies (yes I read about it in the AP forums) I would actually be jealous of either location, but the new one looks awesome!

Posted 12 July 2010 - 09:52 PM
Thank you, I just got my CGEM and it had a little bit of slop, 10 minutes tightening the gears fixed it. YOU ARE THE MAN!!!!!

Posted 11 January 2011 - 05:52 PM
When I removed the scope and checked close you could grab either the dovetail clamp and it had side to side play in declination and It did the same in ra. Not much in fact so little you could feel it but not really see it.
Using your instructions I was able to correct the isssue with a slight adjustment on the worm gears of both axis, and yes I did have to back off some after the first try as it was creating a strain on the drive and you can hear it but I was lucky to get the play completely out and end up with smooth opeeration of both dec & ra movement.
I agree it seems to me that is some info that Celestron should have included in the manual with the CGEM or at least on their site.
ALL HAIL CLOUDY NIGHTS- where the truth comes out sooner or later
Posted 11 January 2011 - 11:36 PM
Thanks for the info.
Posted 12 January 2011 - 04:13 PM
Atlas / EQ6 owners have also had the problem I described. It seems to be fairly normal to make worm adjustments over time.
I've adjusted mine. Same approach as the CGEM.
I find it funny and bizarre that you set worm mesh using a 2mm hex screw that moves the ENTIRE casing... but that's just me (it's the same on the Atlas I just find it a weird, awkward and difficult to get right design.
Check your worm end float as well, that was loose on my Atlas and was causing me alot of phantom issues that would come and go.
Posted 12 January 2011 - 04:59 PM
The cost of doing additional QC before shipment is more than the cost of dealing with support requests and returns later.
Posted 14 January 2011 - 06:06 PM
if you want a look at the insides, I've posted a bunch of pictures I took during my HyperTune on the CGEM Yahoo site. Look for both "John W.'s CGEM stuff" and "RA Parts" in the Photos section.
Posted 11 March 2013 - 03:41 PM
It was a satisfying project, but I did have some confusion for a while... The instructions for reducing wobble in RA is what finally worked for getting rid of wobble in DEC, took me a while to figure that out.
Besides engaging and disengaging the clutch, I'd suggest periodically turning the motor on and listening to the sound. t one point I had the hex too tight and my RA couldn't even move.
It was unclear to me if I had to tighten the restraining hexes before doing these tests or not, what do you think?
Posted 11 March 2013 - 05:38 PM
Posted 20 September 2014 - 02:02 PM
Can someone post a link to where we can find a tear down of the CGEM? I would like to take a look at the gears, and adjust. It's still under warranty but I really don't want to pay $100+ for shipping both ways. I've got binding, I am using the tips above, but would still like to know more about the inner working of this mount, Thanks..
Posted 20 September 2014 - 02:44 PM
Here is a video you could check out. Or this flickr page. I am not sure if you want to mess with the mount while it is under warranty. YMMV! Good luck
Posted 20 September 2014 - 04:36 PM
Thanks nemo129, I saw a vid on you tube where some guy was making adjustments to the gears, he had like 4 allen head screws he loosened just a bit then was moving the gears back and forth to get the perfect mesh between them, I kinda wanted to know how to tear it down to that point? He didn't show that part, and I don't want to mess things up to bad Thank you for the links!! Maybe I'll just send it in, after the rains hit that is
This is the vid I mentioned, question still remains how to tear it down to that point? I know it's a VX mount, but figured it would be pretty much the same..
Edited by DonDon, 20 September 2014 - 05:06 PM.
Posted 22 September 2014 - 01:27 PM
Well I found out the 2 screws on the right side show the gears, that might be a big help when trying to adjust, thanks again for the links, very helpful.

Marita Noon: U.S. Government releases predators against its own people
This story is about New Mexico, Arizona and the Mexican grey wolf. But similar stories can easily be found in Idaho, Wyoming and Montana where the Canadian grey wolf was reintroduced nearly two decades ago. The wolf population has grown so rapidly that they have been known to aggressively kill livestock and cause millions of dollars of loss to ranching families—with the Idaho record being 176 sheep killed in one night. In Wyoming, the Wolf has been removed from the endangered species list and ranchers can now kill the wolf and protect their herds without fear of punishment from our government. Even the U.S. FWS is removing and euthanizing the wolves that were intentionally introduced into the region. As recently as August 21, 2014, wolves are wreaking havoc, killing sheep just 50 miles outside of Spokane, Washington—where the U.S. FWS has authorized a rancher to kill the wolves and, much to the dismay of environmental groups, state wildlife agents are killing wolves to protect people and property.Read More »

|School safety is at the forefront
|Written by Brenda Johnson Brandt
School safety can't be emphasized enough, and local safety updates were reviewed at the Jan. 15 meeting of Holyoke School District Re-1J Board of Education.
The Dec. 14 school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary in Connecticut brought school safety to the forefront, making safety measures in the local district timely.
Superintendent Bret Miles noted Crisis Response Plan revisions were made this past fall and were sent to the printer in December. Staff reviewed the revised plan at the Jan. 4 inservice.
With safety discussion already in place, the holiday break provided good timing to implement some changes. Administrators shared details of those changes at last week's board meeting.
Once the tardy bell has rung at both Holyoke Elementary and Holyoke JR/SR High, the doors are locked. A buzzing-in system is in place, whereby the school secretaries can release the lock to admit visitors.
Employees now wear ID badges, visitor sign-in is required (including walkers at the JR/SR High track) and the elementary lobby area has new criteria.
The second set of double doors at the elementary are closed, and it is requested that parents not go through those doors unless they have a pass. Additionally, visitors are not allowed inside the lobby area at the end of the day, but instead parents are asked to wait outside for their children.
Principals Susan Ortner and Kyle Stumpf said parents have been supportive. Miles added the community has been very receptive to the changes—willing to waive some inconvenience for advanced security.
Miles said they're reviewing camera locations. He also noted the district will resubmit the 2010 BEST grant on security improvements in March.
PC Telcom voices concerns
PC Telcom manager Vince Kropp, along with Mark Smith and Jessica Cumming, voiced concern at a work session just prior to last Tuesday's board meeting.
Kropp highlighted a Nov. 29 Holyoke Enterprise article regarding school board discussion on the EAGLE-Net agreement. His concern is that readers could infer that everything is OK in the relationship with the school district, PC Telcom and EAGLE-Net. He emphasized that it is not OK.
The three entities are six months into a three-year contract for Internet services.
Kropp and Cumming voiced concern for EAGLE-Net overbuilding PC Telcom's and other broadband providers' existing fiber-optic deployments with federal dollars and concern for following the "collaboration" component in the agreement.
Cumming pointed to the financial impact for PC Telcom. She noted EAGLE-Net pays no taxes, while PC Telcom pays substantial taxes, particularly property tax.
She also cited information on the EAGLE-Net website, which states they're bringing middle-mile infrastructure to places that have had insufficient or nonexistent broadband connectivity.
However, Cumming said that isn't true, as PC Telcom has been serving 11 school districts in the past five years.
Kropp cited a letter recently sent to PC Telcom customers, which summarizes reasons they believe EAGLE-Net has strayed from the purpose of their National Telecommunications & Information Administration Broadband Technology Opportunities Program.
Kropp said PC Telcom has had very good support from legislators at both the state and national levels.
Kropp said there are other areas of Colorado where EAGLE-Net has overbuilt the existing fiber-optic installations. He noted they've been stopped in southeast Colorado because the communities said, "No."
Kropp said it's not too late for the community's message of concern to get out there. He suggested consideration from the school board for a letter expressing support for the intent of collaboration in the agreement.
Bus routes reviewed
Pickup times and amount of time students spend on route buses covered another work session topic last week.
Acknowledging it's not a simple problem due to budget constraints and priorities, board members said they want to learn more about what can be done to lessen time on buses for students. Miles will assemble some dollar ratios regarding costs for different numbers of regular bus routes.
It was noted that a couple of bus routes have been eliminated in recent years, which has drastically changed pickup times. Kids are now getting on buses as early as 6:45 a.m.
While there are fewer bus riders, it doesn't change the locations of the homes on the far ends of the routes.
Paperless board meetings was another work session topic. Miles presented two online tools for organizing all school board information in one place. He said the archiving potential is the biggest piece for him.
Board members expressed interest in learning more about costs and cost-savings with these tools.
Random drug test audit reported for first semester
In the first-semester random drug test audit report, Miles said the program was completed with no variations from the standard operating procedures.
Ortner shared data from the first-semester report, noting there were no positive tests.
Participation in the random drug testing, which is required for all 7-12 students involved in extra-curricular activities, included 82 percent of seventh- and eighth-grade students and 87 percent of students in grades 9-12.
Board retreat debriefed
Board members debriefed the Jan. 10 retreat at last week's regular meeting.
Reviewing lists created by the district accountability committee and standard of excellence committee, the board found the expectations of the community are evident in the school today.
The board noticed two themes: providing diverse opportunities for students in school is valued, and most comments revolved around intangible assets such as feeling safe, acceptance and developing enthusiasm for learning.
Potential use of a student advisory committee was discussed at the retreat. However, the board decided to utilize existing structures such as student council and the focus groups.
Athletic director Sandra Rahe told the board about establishing an advisory committee, and they shared thoughts about the potential benefits of this group.
Miles gave the board an update on a collaborative effort of 11 school districts in northeast Colorado working together to implement the optional curriculum resource, which is ready to be distributed by the Colorado Dept. of Education.
Board development was also addressed at the retreat. The board focused on its role when it comes to instructional changes implemented in the district and how a board best supports innovation while maintaining expectations of the local community.
Other business
In other business Jan. 15, the Re-1J board:
—approved renewal of a two-year contract for Miles as superintendent from July 1, 2013-June 30, 2015. During the Jan. 10 retreat, the board had reviewed Miles' evaluation and the deliverables set for October 2013.
—accepted resignations for JR/SR High ESL instructor Desiree Mosenteen and elementary paraprofessional Christene Strecker, effective Jan. 25; and for elementary paraprofessional Brittany Clevenger, effective Jan. 10.
—hired Allie Billings as JR/SR High ESL instructor; Stephanie Mitchell, second-grade teacher; Charles Bruce, long-term substitute for business teacher Kristie Ham; and Wendy Weatherly, Amy Deaver and Brittany Daniel as elementary paraprofessionals for the remainder of the 2012-13 school year.
Miles commended principals Ortner and Stumpf for a great job of hiring mid-year when it typically can be tough to find people.
—approved nonresident student Caitlynn Deaver from the Haxtun School District.
—acknowledged a gift from Sharon Burt, who set up a scholarship for a senior, in memory of her brother, former HHS student Larry Burt. The $1,000 scholarship will be for a student attending a vocational or technical school.
—designated the administration office as the place for official posting of meetings.

ETS clients can find ETS links as well as any ETS for AIX or Custom Technical Support (CTS) links to which they are entitled to on this tab. A drop down is available to clients who are entitled to more than one ETS program to allow selection between the set of links that are shown.
Known issues:
The following accessibility issues will be fixed in a future release.
The "Active" and "Product name" column headers in the "Manage my product list" table are not announced by screen readers.
The information icon cannot be reached using the Tab key on the "All download links," "All troubleshooting links," "All documentation links," "All planning links," "All installation links," and "All usage links" pages. A mouse or pointing device must be used.
When using the Tab key to identify the 'Go' button, the focus does not change on the following pages: "All download links," "All troubleshooting links," "All documentation links," "All planning links," "All installation links," and "All usage links."
When screen reader mode is active, the "My IBM contacts" header announces "Blank" 5 times before continuing to page contents.
While navigating through modules running the JAWS screen reader, the module headers are not read by JAWS. The module header can be read by the JAWS screen reader using the Virtual cursor. One way to read the module header is by tabbing to the skip link in the module header and then using the JAWS key + left arrow to read the module header text. Additionally, the module headers are available in the JAWS Headings List dialog accessed by JAWS key + 6.
While navigating the complimentary side bar modules in the right hand column of Support Portal while using the JAWS screen reader, the expandable section headers for "Site availability," "Site news," and "Support feedback" do not expand/collapse when pressing the Enter key. The key stroke is processed by JAWS. A work around for this issue is to type JAWS key + 3 to pass the key stroke through to the application before pressing the Enter key.
Pressing the Spacebar on the "Browse for a product" check box causes a delay as the screen reloads and is reread top to bottom.
Avoid using the space bar on the Login screen. Using the Spacebar will cause the Overview page to be displayed with the focus positioned at the bottom of the page.

Kirk Douglas was born Issur Danielovitch on Dec. 9, 1916. He was the only boy of seven kids born to Russian Jewish immigrants, Herschel and Bryna. His parents were junk dealers in Amsterdam, NY and Douglas' memoir characterized his early years as plagued with poverty and anti-Semitic backlash from local kids. The determined teenager landed a wrestling scholarship to St. Lawrence University, where he was a star on the wrestling team and began to dabble in the drama department. He was a natural, charismatic talent and went on to land another scholarship to the acclaimed American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City, where his classmates included a 16-year-old Lauren Bacall and future wife...

Paco Pérez
The most beautiful forms are found in nature. You just have to know where to look
Paco Pérez has been running his restaurant in this lovely little fishing port on
the Spanish French border for nearly two decades, but judging from his creativity and enthusiasm, you might think he just opened yesterday. Trained by master chef Ferran Adrià of El Bulli and by celebrated French chef Michel Guérard, Pérez is known for his technical prowess but also for his love of fine ingredients.
And, as he's clever, his cooking always places the emphasis on the latter.
His menu, stressing "producto y tecnica", is heavily influenced by the sea, naturally. Constantly striving to better himself, Pérez is the chef who came up with the most radical response to the Nespresso challenge. For Pérez, it's all about the coffee and everything else should revolve around it, instead of the other way around. So his "Grand Cru Gourmet" completely reinterprets the way the Ristretto Grand Cru should be appreciated: with surprise and absolute rigour.

Third-Grade Reading and High School Graduation
Many of us have heard that reading by third-grade is critical for a child's school success and school success ultimately leads to overall success in life. Here is a sobering article, recently forwarded to me, that supports this from School Library Journal, April 21, 2001: "Poverty, Third-Grade Reading Proficiency Impact High School Graduation Rates".
Poverty and Proficiency: What's The Correlation?
Poverty and third-grade reading proficiency have a huge impact on high school graduation rates, says a new study by the Annie E. Casey Foundation, a private charitable organization that helps disadvantaged kids.
Students who don't read at grade level by third grade are four times more likely to leave high school without a diploma than kids who are proficient readers, says "Double Jeopardy: How Poverty & Third-Grade Reading Skills Influence High School Graduation," which studied nearly 4,000 students nationwide.
Overall, poverty compounds the problem: poor students are three times more likely to drop out or fail to graduate on time. And poverty impacts even the best readers, with poor proficient third graders graduating at about the same rate as subpar readers who've never been poor.
Six Times Greater Risk
Kids who are poor readers and live in poverty are the hardest hit—they're six times at greater risk than their proficient counterparts, the study found. For black and Latino students, the combined effects of poverty and poor third-grade reading skills makes the rate eight times greater.
Reading and the Achievement Gap
"We will never close the achievement gap, we will never solve our dropout crisis, we will never break the cycle of poverty that afflicts so many children if we don't make sure that all our students learn to read," says Ralph Smith, the Annie E. Casey Foundation's executive vice president. "This research confirms the compelling need to address the underlying issues that keep children from reading."
The longitudinal study by Donald Hernandez was released last week at the national Education Writers Association conference in New Orleans and confirms the link between third-grade scores and high school graduation rates. And for the first time, it breaks down the likelihood of graduation based on different reading levels and poverty experiences.
Ten Years of Data
The study examined 3,975 students born between 1979 and 1989. The children's parents were surveyed every two years to determine the family's economic status and other factors, while the children's reading progress was tracked using the Peabody Individual Achievement Test (PIAT) Reading Recognition subtest. The data determined whether students finished high school by age 19, but didn't indicate whether they dropped out.
Proficient, Basic, and Below Basic
The researchers divided the children into three reading groups that corresponded to the skill levels used in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP): proficient, basic, and below basic. The kids were also separated into three income categories: those who've never been poor, those who spent some time in poverty, and those who have lived more than half the years surveyed in poverty.
Factors in Not Finishing High School
Most of the students in the sample managed to finish high school by the time they were 19. But for students who didn't, the rates were highest among those who didn't read well in third grade and those who have lived in poverty. Black and Hispanic students, disproportionately represented in both those categories, were twice as likely as similar white children not to graduate on time.
The study found that overall, 22 percent of kids who have lived in poverty fail to graduate from high school, compared to 6 percent of those who have never been poor. This rises to 32 percent for students spending more than half of the survey time in poverty.
For students who were poor for at least a year and were not reading proficiently in third grade, the proportion of those who don't finish school rose to 26 percent. The rate was highest for poor black and Hispanic students, at 31 percent and 33 percent, respectively. Even so, the majority of students who fail to graduate are white.
Even among poor children who were proficient readers in third grade, 11 percent still didn't finish high school. That compares to 9 percent of subpar third graders who were never poor.Among kids who never lived in poverty, all but 2 percent of the best third-grade readers graduated from high school on time.
What Needs to Improve
"These findings suggest we need to work in three arenas: improving the schools where these children are learning to read, helping the families weighed down by poverty and encouraging better federal, state and local policy to improve the lot of both schools and families," says Hernandez, a sociology professor at Hunter College and the Graduate Center at City University and a senior advisor to the Foundation for Child Development.
The report recommends aligning quality early education programs with the curriculum and standards in the primary grades; paying better attention to the health and developmental needs of young children; and providing work training and other programs that will help lift families out of poverty.
2/3s of Students Aren't Reading on Grade Level By 4th Grade
Nationally, two thirds of students are not reading on grade level by the fourth grade, the earliest year of testing in the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). That proportion rises to four-fifths for low-income children, according to NAEP results.

Montpellier, France (Sports Network) - Former champion Gael Monfils and his
eighth-seeded fellow Frenchman Benoit Paire were easy first-round winners
Tuesday at the Open Sud de France tennis event.
The former top-10 star Monfils handled Belgian Ruben Bemelmans 7-5, 6-4, while
Paire dismantled Spanish qualifier Adrian Menendez-Maceiras 6-0, 6-2 on Day 1
on the indoor hardcourts at Montpellier's Park & Suites Arena.
Monfils was last year's runner-up to Tomas Berdych at this event, titled here
in 2010, and was also a runner-up in 2005, when the tournament was held in
The oft-injured Monfils' second-round opponent will be his third-seeded fellow

WASHINGTON (WUSA) -- Wednesday, many breast cancer survivors are taking part in the nation's first ever Breast Reconstruction Awareness day or "BRA" DAY.
A majority of women having a mastectomy will choose immediate breast reconstruction as a way to get back to normal.
However, for those who don't and later change their minds, Buddy Check 9 wants you to know you still have reconstructive options whether your surgery was last month or 30 years ago.
Lillie Shockney is Administrative Director of the Avon Breast Care Center at Johns Hopkins. She's also a registered nurse and a two-time breast cancer survivor.
Lillie's mission is to help patients, who are often solely focused on survival, understand all of their surgical and reconstructive options.
Lillie told us, "Often times women do not bring up the issue of reconstruction.... I initiate that discussion."
Two decades ago, Lillie's surgeons discussed reconstruction but only to tell her she didn't qualify. A decade later she became part of the growing ranks of women who were able to choose what's known as delayed reconstruction. She credits a new class of drugs and a Marvin Gaye lyric for giving her back the gift of choice.
She shared, "The song was Sexual Healing. The first verse I heard was 'I can't wait for you to operate. I'm your medicine, let me in.' That's all I needed."
She chose the bi-lateral diep flap procedure.
"I would do it again in a heart beat. It was the best decision I ever made for myself," said Lillie.
Plastic Surgeon Dr. Michele Manahan says reclaiming your silhouette, even years later, can be the silver lining after a cancer diagnosis.
"A woman could consider either an implant based reconstruction or reconstruction using her own tissue even in an extremely delayed situation," said Dr. Manahan.
She added, "It may be a little different technique, the patterns of scarring may be different, but the same basic reconstruction techniques are available."
According to Lillie, "This is important for your psychological well being. We want you to go into the operating room with two breasts. We want you to come out with two breasts, two healthy breasts, and just leave the cancer behind with us."

Staff Report
Published Feb. 27, 2013
Integro Earth Fuels received funding to assist in construction of a manufacturing plant in Greenville County, SCRA Technology Ventures' SC Launch Program announced Tuesday.
Arden, N.C.-based Integro is a renewable fuel company that has developed a biomass-based solid fuel called NuCoal, designed to replace coal and reduce emissions for coal-fired power utilities. The amount of funding was not disclosed.
The first stage of the company's production facility, to be located at the S.C. Technology and Aviation Center, will employ 15 workers and eventually increase to 35 employees when the plant is expanded to a full-scale operation, according to a news release.
Integro intends to build multiple, full-scale facilities throughout South Carolina to utilize the state's biomass and agricultural resources, the release said. The economic impact of these facilities will impact foresters, harvesters and transportation resources as they are used in the manufacturing of Integro's renewable fuel.
"Integro Earth Fuels represents an important step toward realizing new opportunities in the agribusiness industry in our state," S.C. Agriculture Commissioner Hugh Weathers said in a news release.
"With the completion of this plant, they will have access to a massive, high growth export market. South Carolina's year-round growing and harvesting season of renewable resources positions us well to supply high quality, raw materials for conversion to high energy density exports," he said.
SCRA Technology Ventures helps innovative companies grow and develop new technologies, creating jobs and advancing the knowledge throughout South Carolina.
Since 2006, SCRA has deployed more than $59 million in funding and infrastructure to support more than 280 high-tech, early-stage enterprises, and has directly invested more than $13 million in South Carolina startups, attracting more than $200 million in private investment.

Hi everyone
Is there a way to add a shared resource to a users account without them having to accept the share request?
It would be great if I could just "push" shared folders/calendars/address books out without the user(s) having to do anything.
Is this where the zmmailbox CLI command comes in?
Cheers, B
