This review is from: Kt Opener Gate Gto Sngl Swg GTO, INC. Automatic Gate Accessories FM200
Pros: Powerful, easy to install, good instructions, good technical support materials, good website support. This product works as intended, installs, and satisfies. Not a flimsy product at all. Made of metal n' stuff.
Cons: Careful with installation, as "stop" function not as easy to set as written in the manual. Pay very close attention to the process, as you may need to do and redo this several times before getting the "stop" sensor to stop at exactly the right spot. It is a very strong actuator, and it will, I kid you not, tear right through whatever wood or flimsy metal or bolts or whatever you think you may have installed to stop said destruction. Had to replace two wooden panels and use additional carriage bolts for my install.
Other Thoughts: Did an install with a full GTO (pro line) product on a sliding gate with this operating a small swing gate. Overkill for the swing gate, but the smallest and cheapest gate quality actuator I could find. If you make a nice gate, this thing will work it. I used a pair of hinged kevlar sealed hinges for the swing gate with nice vertical (pre-bent 1/8 inch to account for hang). Worked like a champ, and was a tiny fraction of the effort compared to the slide gate install. Love this thing and will choose it again for my next gate project.

When police searched a southside home, they found multiple types of drugs, paraphernalia and guns in what they described as a one-stop shop for drug dealers.
Included in the stash inside the home of Zachary Catron, 24, was a stack of blotter papers, which matched what was found next to the body of a Center Grove teen last weekend. The dollar sign symbol found on one of the teen's unused doses is Catron's personal calling card, according to a police report.
Police say the convicted drug dealer supplied hallucinogenic drug 25I-NBOMe, or N-bomb, to two other men, who then sold nine doses to Samuel Xavier Motsay and two other teens. Motsay, 16, was found dead Sunday morning.
Officers found large quantities of drugs and seven guns — including two assault rifles — along with rotting meat, trash and dirty clothes that filled the house in the 3100 block of Tacoma Avenue, Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Capt. David Allender said.
"He ordered that drug on the Internet from India or Pakistan, and then he mixed it up in this nasty, filthy, dirty house with no scientific instruments and then sold it to people. He was kind of a full-service shop," Allender said. "We knew about heroin. We knew about the meth. Xanax bars. He had a bunch of those. He was making his own pills. God knows what was in those. He had a pill maker there in the house."
Judging by the amount of drugs found in Catron's home, police said he was likely supplying several more drug dealers, just like he had sold N-bomb to two men who resold it to Motsay and his friends.
All three men are facing drug charges in the case, but they will not be charged with felonies related to the death of the Center Grove High School student, Johnson County Prosecutor Brad Cooper said.
Catron was arrested on nine charges, including dealing and possessing drugs, after police raided his Indianapolis home earlier this week. The case is under review, and the Marion County prosecutor will decide what, if any, charges to file, Marion County Prosecutor's Office spokesman A.J. Deer said. Catron will appear in court for an initial hearing Wednesday, Deer said.
He could face a more serious sentence, since he was already facing drug dealing charges in Johnson County, Cooper said.
Catron also was on probation in Marion County after he pleaded guilty to a charge of dealing narcotic drugs in October. He was arrested in that case after police stopped his car and found 3 grams of heroin and 9 grams of methamphetamine. But he never spent any time in prison. He was sentenced by a Marion County judge to 20 years, with 18 years suspended and two years in a community corrections program, which could include home detention or work release. The prosecutor's office did not have details on what program Catron was sentenced to.
The two other men arrested in the case, Kyle Hazzard, 24, 7322 Creekbrook Drive, Indianapolis, and Jordan Adamowicz, 19, 1539 Creekside Lane, Greenwood, also have never served any time in jail. Hazzard was charged with a marijuana offense, and Adamowicz had an underage alcohol charge, but both are now facing their first felony charges.
The charges they are facing are Class D felonies, punishable by up to three years in prison, because they dealt the small amount of drugs and left, police said. None of the men will face additional charges if autopsy results show the drugs they sold or delivered caused Motsay's death, Cooper said.
The state doesn't have more serious charges if a dealer's drug hurt the users that buy it, Cooper said.
"If someone down the line dies or overdoses, there is no criminal liability," Cooper said.
Catron has a recent criminal history with drug dealing, including two separate drug cases within the past year.
In summer 2013, police said he sold heroin and a drug similar to Ecstasy to undercover officers three times in July in Johnson County. He also was arrested on a possession of marijuana charge in August in Marion County. At the time, he was out on bond from his prior arrest when drugs were found in his vehicle.
The Marion County Prosecutor's Office attempted to revoke his bond after the marijuana arrest, Deer said. He agreed to plead guilty in the original narcotics case and the marijuana charge, and he was allowed to leave jail again, Deer said.
Johnson County sheriff's deputies arrested him in March on charges related to the drug deals they said he committed in summer 2013. Cooper is now trying to get his bond revoked so that he won't be able to get out of jail again until his court case is completed.

La Jolla rebuild scores high in contemporary design and energy efficiency
And while the house is positioned to catch the ocean breeze for cross ventilation, sleek, high-efficiency, low-energy (Big Ass brand) ceiling fans were installed in the living area and each of the four bedrooms for added cooling on warm days, eliminating the need for an air conditioning system. Double-glazed windows and shades also help regulate the home's heat.
Other energy-saving features include energy-rated Energy Star appliances and LED lights throughout the home — except for the chandelier above the dining room table. The whimsical light fixture, created by German designer Ingo Maurer, is designed with clips and note cards, so guests can leave a message.
"It adds a nice texture to the room," Keitel said.
Dual-flush toilets and low-flow showerheads and faucets save water but don't skimp on style. In the powder room, just outside the guest suite, a streamlined cylindrical sink rises from the floor. The shiny silver faucet extends down from the ceiling over the sink.
"It's a conversation piece," Keitel said.
Upstairs, the three bedrooms, each with its own bath, are simple, light and practical. Closets come with locks because the family exchanges homes for vacations. The understated master bathroom is a quiet space. A gracefully curved soaking tub is the centerpiece of the room defined by straight geometric lines of the exposed concrete blocks, a simple wood shelving unit and three windows, which are each a different shape.
"We tried to do timeless things that don't age quickly," Keitel said. "We tried to use natural, truthful materials."
Tips for saving energy, water
While few homes qualify for a LEED platinum rating, there are easy ways to reduce energy and water consumption. Here are a few:
• Replace incandescent light bulbs with LED (light-emitting diodes) or CFL (compact fluorescent lamps) light bulbs.
• Reduce the amount of air that leaks in and out of the home by caulking and weather stripping windows and doors.
• Replace old appliances with Energy Star-rated products. The rating is given by the Environmental Protection Agency.
• Set thermostat no higher than 68 degrees for heating and no lower than 78 degrees for cooling. To save even more, install ceiling fans to reduce the amount of time the air conditioner needs to run. A ceiling fan that can run in reverse will help circulate warm air back down in winter.
• Wrap water heater in an insulating blanket and heating and cooling ducts with duct wrap.
• Add insulation to the attic.
• Make sure the water heater is set at 120 degrees.
• Replace faucets and showerheads will ones that have a flow of 1.6 gallons per minute or less. Look for the WaterSense label.
• Install dual flush toilets.
• Use drip irrigation.

Legislation signed into law by Gov. Mike Pence will require high schools throughout Indiana do a better job of determining whether their students are ready to go to college.
The new law, House Enrolled Act 1005, was prompted in part by research that shows thousands of high school graduates, including those who graduated with academic honors, had to take basic remediation courses in math and English as college freshman.
Starting next school year, high schools will have to start identifying 11th-graders who are at risk of failing their senior-year graduation exams or need remedial classes before beginning college work for credit. The law also requires high schools to start providing extra help to those students in their senior year.
The intention of the law is admirable, but it's misdirected in a couple of fundamental ways. First, as has been the case in the past several years, the legislature is asking schools to do something additional and specific without providing the financial resources to accomplish this.
That means already stretched budgets will have to be stretched even further. This situation cannot continue indefinitely before something snaps and essential school functions are compromised.
Second, the law compels high schools to test those students in their junior year to assess if they have the basic math and English skills to go on to college or into the workforce, and if not, to provide remedial help to them.
But the junior year of high school is awfully late in a student's educational career to be looking at remediation. Problems like this can be handled more effectively if they are identified earlier.
Every year, more than 10,000 college freshman who've graduated from Indiana high schools are required to take remedial classes that give them no college credits but cost the same as a for-credit course, according to the Indiana Commission on Higher Education.
"The legislation establishes a backstop so that any need for remediation will be identified and can be addressed in high school," said State Rep. Ed Clere, a New Albany Republican who authored the bill. "Too many students enter college unprepared and in need of remediation. Very few of those students graduate on time, and many never graduate at all."
Students who need to take remedial classes in college run a higher risk of dropping out, in part because they can't afford to keep going when their money, college loans, or scholarships run out.
We agree this is a problem, but addressing it in the junior year of high school is not the best place to start.
In fact, the legislature itself missed the opportunity to have a real impact in the matter. The state's lawmakers failed to pass legislation that would have offered state funding for public preschool education. Doing so could have made a real difference in educational outcomes.
Research has shown that children who have an organized, curriculum-based preschool experience are more likely to succeed in school. They enter kindergarten better prepared to learn, and this advantage carries with them.
Hoosier lawmakers are right to look into this issue of the preparedness of our high school graduates, but we think the state should be making an investment in identifying the problems earlier on and then giving schools the resources they need to properly and effectively address the issues.

Newspaper article THE JOURNAL RECORD
State Appraisers Seeking to Establish National Standards/to Improve Quality of Appraisals, Protect the Public
Article excerpt
Stephen V. Greer, treasurer of Oklahoma's chapter of the American Institute of Real Estate Appraisers, said certification would improve the quality of appraisals in the state and provide protection for the public.
"We would like to see one set of standards adopted, either state-by-state or on a national basis," Greer said. "Along with this, we feel that there should be a certification program to ensure a certain level of professional standards.
"Right now, anyone who wants to call himself an appraiser is within his rights and can offer his estimates on any project to anyone regardless of that person's abilities or professionalism," he said.
"The problem with this is that too often someone needs a precise appraisal and may not know who to hire. If that person hires the wrong appraiser, there could be problems."
Certification, like that given to certified public accountants, would allow those who have completed a prescribed course, and who maintain certain professional standards, to use the designaton, he said.
"With certification, the buyer would know exactly what he is getting, and if he didn't need that quality could call an appraiser who is not certified," he said.
"There is a place in our business for those persons who are not certified, but who know enough about the market place to give a good estimate of the value of property.
"In the majority of cases, this type of estimate would be what the customer would want, so there would be no need to pay for a certified appraiser.
"But, there needs to be some regulation to provide protection for the customer, so the customer will know just what he is buying," he said.
Greer said the industry prefers certification over licensing as a form of regulation because of the difference in standards and because of the grandfather clause usually contained in any licensing legislation.
"Anyone now practicing as an appraiser would be granted a license under the grandfather clause, if the state legislature decides to go for licensing rather than certification," he said. …

DEERFIELD, Ill. -- A day after hitting the game-winning shot, Chicago Bulls point guard Derrick Rose participated fully in practice at the Berto Center, albeit with the same kinesiology tape on his neck he wore in Thursday's victory over the New York Knicks.
Coach Tom Thibodeau said the full roster participated in practice and that everybody is expected to be available when the Bulls play at Philadelphia on Saturday night.
Rose continued to make no excuses for his shooting struggles Thursday when he went 7-of-23 from the field. He did, however, hit a floater over two defenders in the closing seconds that was the difference in the 82-81 victory.
"I was just missing my shots," Rose said. "Explosiveness, I think was there. I was just missing shots."
Rose seemed particularly ineffective in the first half Thursday, especially when it came to his inability to flash his typical speed and athleticism. Thibodeau countered that, though, saying that some phases of his point guard's game were the best he's ever seen.
"You know, to me he missed some shots that he normally makes, but that may have been his best defensive game since he's been here," Thibodeau said. "His defense was terrific. He wasn't shooting well, but he found other areas to get going, and I thought he found a good rhythm to start the third. I thought Luol (Deng) made some good plays to get the ball out to him. Then, of course, he made the big shot at the end. He stayed with it and overall I think he's playing very well."
Rose not only played 34 minutes Thursday, but he also played some full-court defense as he continues to round into playing shape.
"For me, all I do is just try and bring that intensity every night," Rose said. "Picking up full court, that's something I've been getting used to doing, and really getting into the ball. I think as far as me being a leader and being the point guard, seeing just how everybody feeds off my energy."
Nobody was willing to say that the extra energy expended had its effect on the offensive end. Rose sounded as if he preferred the defensive strategy no matter how taxing it might have been.
"It really wakes you up kind of, gets your legs going, lets everyone know that you came to play tonight," Rose said. "They start the offense a little further back, and you getting into the ball kind of avoids screens. (Screens) are probably one of the reasons my neck is sore."
After holding the Knicks to 81 points, though, defense doesn't seem to be the Bulls' biggest concern. Establishing an offensive flow could end up being a priority against the Sixers.
"I wouldn't say we're lost (offensively), but the chemistry part, it can always get better," Rose said. "I think we have a great upside. I think we can be a great team. All of us have been working out individually, like super hard, so when you have that going all it is, it's timing and rhythm. Then everybody will be going together."

I am leaving town and just checked my coolant to make sure I had pleanty. When I took off the cap, the coolant was all the way to the top and a reddish oily substance is floating on top. There was also some gunkie yellowish substance on the cap itself. A few weeks ago I had to have the tensioner pulley and V belts replaced. What is wrong?

BMJ journal editor Fiona Godlee this week published an open letter to Roche, makers of the flu drug Tamiflu. Background provided by BMJ: Roche promised in 2009 to release full reports from clinical trials of oseltamivir in response to an investigation by the BMJ and the Cochrane Collaboration. In this open letter to John Bell, regius professor of medicine at Oxford University and a Roche board member, the BMJs editor in chief further urges the company to disclose the full data.
Excerpts of the letter (copy of letter pasted below):
Dear John
I am writing to you in your capacity as a member of the board of Roche. As you may be aware, the BMJ has been working with the Cochrane Collaboration in its efforts to get Roche to release the raw data on the effects of oseltamivir (Tamiflu) so that Cochrane can properly fulfil the UK governments commission for a systematic review of neuraminidase inhibitors based on clinical study reports.
The Cochrane reviewers now know that there are at least 123 trials of oseltamivir and that most (60%) of the patient data from Roches phase III completed treatment trials remain unpublished. We have concerns on a number of fronts: the likely overstating of effectiveness and the apparent under-reporting of potentially serious adverse effects. Meanwhile, oseltamivir has just been added to the World Health Organizations List of Essential Medicines, alongside aspirin and ? blockers.
On behalf of the Cochrane collaborators and public health decision makers around the world, I ask Roche to honour its publicly stated promise to make available the full clinical study reports. In order for the Cochrane collaborators to properly analyse these data they will need individual patient data in electronic format.
Oseltamivir has been a great commercial success for Roche. Billions of pounds of public money have been spent on it, and yet the evidence on its effectiveness and safety remains hidden from appropriate and necessary independent scrutiny. I am appealing to you, as an internationally respected scientist and clinician and a leader of clinical research in the United Kingdom, to bring your influence to bear on your colleagues on Roches board. As company directors, responsibility for Roches behaviour rests with you, as individuals and collectively. In refusing to release these data of enormous public interest, you put Roche outside the circle of responsible pharmaceutical companies. Releasing the data would do a great deal to restore confidence in the company and its board of directors.
The BMJ has launched a separate section of its website, the BMJ Open Data Campaign.
In a somewhat related note, the AP recently reported, "Roche probed for not reporting side effects." Excerpt:
"Europes top drug regulator announced it is taking action against pharmaceutical giant Roche for allegedly failing to properly report the side effects of 19 drugs being used by U.S. patients. …
Eight of the drugs involved are used for the treatment of cancer, including breast cancer. They include Avastin, Herceptin, Tarceva, and Xeloda. The flu drug Tamiflu was also included in the list."
We Welcome Comments. But please note: We will delete comments that include personal attacks, unfounded allegations, unverified facts, product pitches, profanity or any from anyone who doesn't list what appears to be an actual email address. We will also end any thread of repetitive comments. We don't give medical advice so we won't respond to questions asking for it. Please see more on our comments policy.

Competent Travel Nurses Paramount to Patient Safety
To limit liabilities associated with under-qualified nurses, American Traveler takes diligent steps to ensure all RN traveling nurses placed by the agency meet or exceed the level of competence expected by clients. Clinical testing and evaluations, reference verifications and performance tracking are just a few ways the nurse staffing company achieves client satisfaction contract after nurse contract.
"Our Joint Commission Surveyor confirmed that our registered nurse staffing processes ensure competence," said Clinical Account Manager Deborah Bacurin, RN. "Moreover, our nurses continue to earn kudos among client facilities for promptness, professionalism and job knowledge."
Medication errors by nurses – or incidents where bedside care suffered because an RN didn't follow hospital protocol – rock the healthcare staffing world. They remind hospital administrators and nurse staffing agencies alike of the important role nurse competency testing plays in patient safety. It's in this light that American Traveler goes to great lengths to provide competent nurses with proven track records of quality patient care.
"I'm proud to say our larger healthcare providers have been with us for years because we continue to provide them with highly competent nurses who watch out for the best interest of their patients. In our house, we tell nurse job candidates that patient safety is number one and nothing trumps it."
Exclusive of malpractice and litigation costs lapses in clinical judgment by nurses can cost hospitals up to $5 million or more per event. In some cases, this doesn't include the cost of injuries to patients. Also at risk could be millions in Medicare funding.
Call American Traveler at 1-800-884-8788 to learn more about our travel nurses and how we work in conjunction with healthcare providers to retain high levels of patient safety and satisfaction.

Thorn in My Heart (2003)
by Liz Curtis Higgs
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Well-written and immaculately researched, featuring a gorgeous setting effectively conveyed. I didn't fall desperately in love with the story or characters, though. Nonetheless, it was hard to put down, and I am looking forward to reading the rest of the series.
Let me begin by saying that I do agree with the description Goodreads has provided. A more thorny love triangle I have never seen or heard of, and there is almost more drama, deception, and jealousy in this book than I can bear. Oh, and there are many spirituals truths. I know, that last one didn't quite seem to fit, did it? But it's true, even though those little gems seemed to be buried under everything I didn't like about the book.
To put it simply, this story irked me. Yet the whole time I was reading it there was this inexplicable draw.
It starts off interesting enough. The parallel to the bible story is obvious. Jamie finds himself in trouble at home. After stealing his brother's blessing with the support of his mother, he begins to fear for his life. He may now be the one to inherit Glentrool, but what good is that to him if he ends up dead by his brother's hands? It was a good beginning, but I found myself anxious to get to the drama of the story, when Jamie meets Leana and Rose(Leah and Rachel's counterparts).
Boy, if I had known... (Some minor spoilers ahead?)
With his brother after him, Jamie flees to home of his Uncle Lachlan, hoping to gain a wife during his stay. He's immediately attracted to the beautiful Rose that he barely even gives Leana, the tender compassionate mother hen, a second glance. Cue the love triangle.
Because Rose doesn't want to get married. She's fifteen years old for Pete's sake! So she and her sister agree that Leana must be the one to win the man.
I'm trying not to be too spoilery, but it's really very hard. In short, our characters are very, very fickle. There is lying, backstabbing, and deceit. A lot of the characters' actions were utterly despicable. Lachlan especially, but Jamie bothered me the most. His actions were innocent, yet so cruel. He's attracted to Rose, but he leads Leana on so many times it's no wonder she thinks him to be in love with her.
These characters take marriage so lightly. And divorce to be a perfectly acceptable thing! Yes, I realize this is a retelling of the Old Testament story, but these people are Christians! So why don't they act like it?
This book is classified as Biblical Fiction.
It reads more like a soap opera.
I really hate to be so harsh. Despite all of this, I DO feel sympathy for the characters(except Lachlan). It wasn't easy for any of them.
And I'll be completely honest--I read this book in one day. One day. I had to put it down and pick it back up several times, but it was extremely well written. I don't know of another story that has made me FEEL so much. Hence the extra star. I liked the ending, though I hate how it twists the original story. The whole thing just left a bad taste in my mouth, and I won't be reading the next one, however much I want to know what happens next.

The book cover says it best, "In the autumn of 1788, amid the moors and glens of the Scottish Lowlands, two brothers fight to claim one father's blessing, two sisters long to claim one man's heart". I must say as I first started reading this story I wasn't sure it would hold my attention, but the more I read, the more I became captivated by the story and became thoroughly engaged with the story. If you know the story in the Bible of Jacob and Esau and Leah and Rachel, then you will find yourself very familiar with this story line.
Leana and Rose are two sisters who are close and who love each other very much. They are both very different personality wise, but their bond is strong. So when the young man, Jamie, comes to stay with them, they will struggle with their feelings for him and how that affects their feelings towards each other. I appreciated both girls, but loved the devotion and love Leana has for both Jamie and Rose and how hard her life is because of this deep love she has for them both. It is a trying time for all three when the wedding of Jamie and Rose, turns into something completely different. I wished I had marked it in the book as I was reading, but there was a place where Neda will explain to Leana that a husband will fail you at times, but if you put your faith and thoughts on the Lord first, He never will will fail you (badly paraphrased, but you get the meaning). Emotions will run high, hatred and love will seesaw back and forth and the ending will leave you wondering what happens next. I am glad to say that the next book in the series, "Fair Is the Rose", will pick up in the same scene that this book closes with (I know because I have already peeked).
This is the first of a 4-book series on the McKie family of late 1700s Scotland. Higgs has mirrored the Biblical story of Jacob, Rachel, and Leah, even giving the characters names with the first initial of their Biblical counterparts. Because of this, it is not difficult to figure out what will happen, although I am curious as to how (or if) the main character is going to have 2 wives and 2 concubines! I appreciate the research behind the novel. It is obvious in the language and the feel of the book that the author spent time on accuracy. I know from her notes that she traveled there extensively, which would account for the authentic feel. I did get a bit annoyed at the characters at time. They seem to be flat and of a singular bent - bad or good, Christ-like or not Christ-like, childlike or adult. I am interested in seeing how the other books progress..
A fun retelling of the Jacob/Esau, Rachel/Leah story, but based in Scotland in the late 1700s.

OK Place to Start, but You'll Want More,
This review is from: LEGO Ultimate Building Set - 405 Pieces (6166) (Toy)
I bought this for my children and to relive my days of playing with Legos in the 1970s. The kids really enjoy playing with them. I like this generic collection of mult-purpose bricks better than the sets that are designed to build one unique item. For the price (normally around twenty five dollars), you get a reasonable amount of stuff. On the down side, there are a lot of the smaller bricks (1 x 2 and 1 x 1). After playing with this for a few days I found that my kids wanted plates, bricks (2 x 4 and 2 X 8), and wheels (my son loves to make cars). I went to lego dot com where I was able to buy these specific things separately. Also, if you want to find some odd parts from old sets (even going back to the 1970s) try bricklink dot com. It takes awhile to navigate the site, but you can buy whatever individual pieces you want used.
In summary, buy this set first from Amazon and then go to lego dot com or bricklink dot com to buy wheels, bricks and plates.

MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Scheduling a nonconference game with Bowling Green was supposed to give No. 22 West Virginia a buffer between a grueling contest against LSU and the start of the Big East schedule.
Instead, the Mountaineers (3-1) will face a Falcons team on Saturday that features the Mid-American Conference's highest-scoring offense.
The third-ever meeting between the schools will showcase two of the nation's most prolific quarterbacks.
Sophomore Matt Schilz of Bowling Green (3-1) has thrown for 14 touchdowns, tied for the most in the FBS.
West Virginia's Geno Smith threw for 463 yards and set three school records in the 47-21 loss last week to LSU. His 1,471 yards are the third most in the nation, behind Oklahoma State's Brandon Weeden and Houston's Case Keenum, the two schools where West Virginia's Dana Holgorsen previously coached.

Melanie Oldham Mental Health Hero #MentalHealthMonth
Melanie Oldham 2013 Mental Health Hero Cartoon-A-Thon
Drawing by Chato Stewart
My name is Melanie Oldham. I am bipolar. I am also a wife, a mother, a court reporter.
At the age of 40, I decided I was drinking too much alcohol. I checked myself into a rehab. After five days of getting all the alcohol out of my system, they sent me home. The very next day, Thanksgiving Day 2007, I had my very first manic episode. My husband didn't know what was wrong with me. He finally took me to the hospital and they started running tests thinking I had a brain tumor.
I read everything I could find on the subject. I discovered the Depression Bipolar Support Alliance (DBSA) website. I even attended their conference in Houston. That is where I met Chato Stewart. I became friends with him on Facebook and read his columns on PsychCentral.
He encouraged me to enter the Facing Us Video Contest. I did, and I won. What an honor.

669 Tasting Notes
I got this many moons ago when Laurant was handing out samples of his tea. I jumped on it because VariaTEA loved them so much. She sent me a whole lot of their zodiac blends, but this time with Laurant, I went with the greens and black teas!
This tea is so good oh my gosh. Lovely chocolate/caramel/vanilla scents when you open up the baggie, and it comes out more as it steeps. It did turn a bit bitter when I drank it straight, but I think this is a tea that needed the milk and sugar!! Ahh so so SO good. When I lessen my tea stash, I'll definitely get my hands on some of this tea :)
Flavors: Caramel, Chocolate, Cream, Vanilla
Tea & Cards TTB
Oh my gosh this smells like christmas and it tastes so good I love it so much.
I've been listening to Christmas music since September and AHH CHRISTMAS IS COMING.
Christmas decorations are already up in Disneyland!!! And everything is going to be up officially starting the 13th! Ahh I'm so excited for all the Holiday festivities :))
But this tea is fab and I love it so much. It tastes like lovely christmas aww
Marco Polo TTB
Freakin boyfriend is such a creep oh my gosh (but he's fab and it was quite funny ahhah).
So he knows that jump62359 is my everything and he decided to google that and STEEPSTER CAME UP AND HE SAW MY POST OF HAVING TO MEE IN TRAFFIC AHHAHAH
EJ if you're reading this then hi.
But seriously though. Steepster is fab and I love it tons, but because of my busy schedule, I almost never have time for tea? Tonight is special bc I have things that need to be done and I figured this would be a great tea bc honeybush
Prepared in store bc I was craving some jasmine, and apparently you get a free refill! Sooo yeah. I got my free refill today and I DIDN'T THINK IT WOULD BE FREAKIN TRAFFIC AT 2PM AND I HAD TO PEE SO BAD AND IT WAS SO PAINFUL WOW but tea was okay. The lady who prepared it didn't really wash the steeper out so it had the previous taste which was like chocolatey and weird and did not work with this tea at all.
Bummer! It's annoying when we do it to ourselves but for a tea shop to not clean out the steeper is inexcusable.
Marco Polo TTB
THIS BOX IS MASSIVE and there's so many teas I've never had before! This is a definite first.
Nice, sweet, light aroma coming out of the package.
Definitely has that roasted genmaicha smell right when I poured the water in! Now with the matcha, what difference does the matcha make? I haven't a clue, so that why I'm here to find out!
Hmm.. Tastes like a slightly buttery version of the generic genmaicha I've had. Nice, and I can definitely tell the difference between the two.
And back into the box this goes!
Flavors: Butter, Roasted, Toasted Rice
Teeny Tiny Tea Box round 2
I went through a chocolate phase not too long ago, and I just had to try this tea! Smells super chocolatey, not getting much mint though.
Not exactly the best tea out there. It went a bit bitter and it may have been my fault for letting it steep a bit too long, but nothing a splash of milk can't fix! Decent tea, just nothing I would go out of my way to purchase

ROCKFORD (WIFR) -- Winnebago County leaders are trying to shine a light on the growing problem of domestic violence.
Dozens of people lit candles to pay tribute to domestic violence survivors and to mourn the lose of those who didn't make it. Judge Rosemary Collins says one-in-three women are abused. The ceremony was part of the Silhouette Project and Rockford Sexual Assault Counseling Clothesline Project's efforts to raise awareness about domestic violence.

Aspen Ridge is located on the picturesque Silver Thread Scenic Byway, off of Highway 149 (approximately 1/4 mile northwest of the junction of Hwy. 160) on the right side of the highway. The nearby town of South Fork is surrounded on three sides by the Rio Grande National Forest and some of the largest, undisturbed wilderness areas in the country. The outdoor activities are countless.
The Rio Grande River and the South Fork River are very near and provide excellent trout fishing. If you prefer, there are many local lakes nearby. For biking, hiking, or ATV's, there are many old logging and mining trails close by for breath-taking views at nature's finest.
If you're the type that enjoys mingling with others we offer plenty of opportunities without even leaving the facilities. We feature an outdoor area that allows for get-togethers and picnics as well as open fires that capture the wild spirit and beauty of the outdoors.
The log cabins are all modern with kitchens, bathrooms, and color televisions with cable. All linens, pots, & pans are furnished. Our cabins have one or two bedrooms, with queen or full size beds.
Make Aspen Ridge your vacationing, hunting, and fishing headquarters in southern Colorado.

Cool thread.
Being now 57 years old, growing-up in the bike business, my bike interest is somewhat stuck in the 1970s when that was a huge part of my life. And I really like the artistic side of classic steel road bikes and the related components. And honestly, at the level that I ride, I think I'm not giving anything up to keep riding my vintage bikes.
I'm very active in a club and as time goes by, they have mentioned me and my bikes in the newsletter and many of the club members are aware that I ride valuable and collectable "art" pieces. For sure, I am the only one riding vintage iron but there are a couple of members with Rivendell type exotic steel bikes that are of course retro-styled. And of course, most road bike enthusiasts know what a Schwinn Paramount is. Most of my riding friends are near my age, so many have ridden these types of bikes when they were new years ago. My bike of choice is often a subject of casual conversation on our group rides and people often ride next to me and admire my bike and talk about it. Some members look forward to seeing which one I will break out of the stable on any given day. They understand that some are too nice to subject to rain conditions and that some are more "beaters" and others are taken out only on special days.
Even though I am the only vintage collector person in the club, with the exception of 'brifters' and those extra cogs on the rear being much nicer for downshifting while climbing, I don't feel that my old bikes are a disadvantage in a club ride. And I enjoy riding them, my Kool Orange 1972 P15 Paramount is my most colorful and 'artsy' bike, but my Mercian Vincitore and Bob Jackson just ooze exotic coolness.... that is all....
'72 MERCIAN VINCITORE ~ MY PARAMOUNTS - '72 P15-9, '72 Chrome P13-9, & '73 P10-9 ~ '87 all 'Campy' Cannondale Team Comp ~ '95 Bob Jackson ~ '04 Cannondale R600
If I can, I comment to say nice "fill in the blank"'
I met a former Schwinn Shop owner or worker, in his 60's, who went on to own a Trek store or two.
He had a lower model '80's Trek with the same patina'd brown paint is was born with, with beautiful a beautiful Campi triple, guessing 9 speed group.
The bike had brifters, fenders, a beautiful wheel set and was set up perfectly for centuries.
He put into words what I have always sensed about C&V.
Why did he go to the trouble of putting an unheard of amount of money into a lower level steel frame?
One answer, is I am sure because he could.
But the answer given was that modern carbon bikes do 95% of everything very well.
But they lack that "it" factor. That perfect blend of frame and components to where you are riding on a sunny day, feeling great, and the bike is perfect.
He said he would trade carbon for that one perfect blend of steel frame and component set that can occasionally hit 100%.
He also said when he got back from his first ride after assembling this bike, he had to clean the bugs out of his teeth from the S.E.G. that he couldn't wipe off his face.
Should have taken pictures, because when funds and wife allows, I am going to shamelessly copy his bike.
I want to clean bugs out of my teeth after the first ride too!
I'm so lonely with my C & V hobby that I've checked the ongoing responses on this thread multiple times. It grows each time.
Ahh, but that's the allure of C & V... doing it the 'old fashioned' way. No white lab coats, NASCAR style tool chests, rubber gloves or torque wrenches here. Everything came by repetition, sound and feel.
Yes, I know it's archaic by today's standards, and it's probably going to earn me some disrespect from the Membership, but that's how I was taught back in the early 80's.
@oldskoolwrench - good to know. I didn't know that's how they did it in the day - just thought it was this particular guy. Now my next question is: Where can I get one of those brushes!? lol
Thankfully my wife enjoys riding her beautiful custom '97 Erickson with me as often as possible, typically 3-4 times per week. I'm almost as strong as her so far this year as we work to get ourselves back into "century shape" this summer. She appreciates that I take care of our bikes, and she's been gracious about me having more than I can ride at once. She even participates in the conversation when I get into bike techie-ness. But she does complain when bike parts show up in too many places around the house, so she does have limits.
I really enjoyed last month's Seattle area C&V ride, and I need to make more of an effort to stay in touch with everyone I met on that ride. Let's swap phone numbers, etherhuffer and the rest of you, so we can meet more often! And let's do more PNW C&V group rides for those that are willing to ride with like-minded folks.
The Portland C&V ride should be fun next week. Sorry I will miss it, but my son wasn't willing to reschedule his wedding for that reason. His fiancé is enjoying the lovely Centurion LeMans RS that we picked out together. She even prefers her DT levers in friction mode! My adult daughter is equally infatuated with the Miyata 310 and the old Team Pro on it, both older than she is. Apparently I have something of a C&V family, or else I'm just a bad influence on them.
We're fortunate up here to have a few shops that acknowledge C&V people and their bikes. I got some good questions about my Gilles Berthoud saddle from a several sales women at Free Range a few weeks ago when I was in there to pick up a Grand Bois tire. But the loss of Il Vecchio and George Gibbs hurts in that regard. That was a great place to stop and drool around the collection of very cool old bikes on the shore of Lake Washington every time we went that way.
I wasn't sure, but based on other Forums I participate in, I didn't want to run afoul of the powers that be.
Besides, it's just a photo of a straight, round bristle brush that any O' Reilly's, Auto Zone or other Auto Parts store will have.
@Velocivixen, it has grown more than I had expected it to. The responses have been really interesting.
^ I agree, this is an interesting thread to read.
It can at times be a little frustrating that so few people have "seen the light" that we have seen. Seeing a fellow traveler (even for just an instant, in passing) is rare enough to be cause for excitement. Which is part of the reason I am so grateful for this place.
As far as riding, I also enjoy quiet, solitary rides. Haven't done it much, but riding with family or friends can be great. I am not attracted to riding in a group with acquaintances/randoms -- I can grasp some of the appeal, but it's not for me.
1977 Centurion Semi-Pro -- 1983 Trek 600 (650b) -- 1987 Schwinn High Sierra (dropbar) -- 1996 Trek 930 -- 2005 Stumpjumper HT -- 2011 Jamis Coda
I was surprised when I started my thread ("Are you a group cyclist or a solo cyclist") after reading yours, to see just how many of us are Solo cyclists!? A very refreshing subject was bought up by you in starting this thread.
I think it demonstrates just how many of us have been in your position from time to time.
I started that thread for you @BFisher, to show you what I figured out a while ago, that is, that be it solo or in a group it is a very enjoyable past time. It did surprise me to see that is a solo activity for so many.
Seems like there is a C&V supporter on a bike in that photo on a very nice looking Kuwahara, , although she is probably a Dad supporter first.
I am into bikes pre "95 and most bikes within that era, mainly the MTB's of which I have a few, go anywhere on those, English/Australasian/ Japanese Steel 10-12 speeds Low to mid range(especially after getting robbed), early 3-5 speeds etc.
I do not know any one into what I am into as a total package, over the last couple of years made a few friends who are interested in parts of what I am into.
If I lived near you I would ride with you, it may take me a while to get to your house though!?
Where are the Bikeaholic meetings? . . . . . I need help!? I just don't think I can do this alone.

It will be the last too.

@Bicycle Addict, Thank You! I agree 100% that this C&V madness is a VERY enjoyable pursuit. That little Kuwahara is charming; my daughter is just learning the basics of shifting and she loves the bike so far. I'd say that my biggest interest in this hobby is taking something that has been neglected, abused, etc., and making it useful and enjoyable again. Of course, there is always the never-ending quest for the ultimate score! It is too bad that many of us come from places so far from one another. There really seems to be some great company here. But, the forum is here, and for that I am glad.
@BFisher - I know what you mean regarding taking something that, on the surface, may seem like junk and making it usable again - even the ones that will have "patina". But then taking a closer look, beyond the "wrinkles of time" and grime to see that, perhaps it has "good bones", maybe a little life left given just a bit of attention. Call it what you will, a diamond in the rough. I know some here have found great "diamonds" in old, used bikes. I suspect many, like myself get average, maybe just "vintage" but not "classic" and still get joy out of making something useful, perhaps giving joy to a new rider. For me, that's the thrill...taking the old, neglected and giving it a second life.
BFisher I like that post, I enjoy the same process on a bike, sometimes I only start out with a frame, I kinda see them as blank canvas's, you decide what go's on.
I set up a small frame similar for my mates daughter a few years ago, 1 x 6 Suntour gearing with powershift stem shifter (later changed to a thumbie), SR cranks/Stem she was at the time tall for her age, so I was able to use a nice set of 27" Araya rims, Suze high flange hubs 3 crossed. Looked really nice, rode even better.
She did not want drops, so I took them off, it was set up with a chrome riser bar, Weinmann brake levers.
I put a purple seat, grips, pedals on it for her, bought as a set, looked really good against the white Nishiki frame.
A while ago I went to help them move to the other end of the Island and she was very sternly telling the moving guys that they needed to be very careful with her freshly polished(yes polished by her!?) bike or she would complain to the company . . . 12 yrs old at the time!!
She was not angry or anything, just assertive, it was funny in a way, where we tried not to laugh, let her have her moment, she turned and went inside and the driver says to his worker with a grin "You heard the lady pack it carefully" loud enough for her to hear, we heard a giggle in response. Classic.
In talking about not many people near you . . .that can be an OK thing when it comes to buying C&V bikes in your area!?
Your online community here is worldwide. Accessing from your own home means its quite local too??
And last but not least
+1 on what Velocivixen said. The bikes I save should BE dead but if I can get the seat post, stem and BB out I will try to do something with the frame, even handing it on to someone else.
for an example there is a pretty dead looking frame of mine on page 133 of the "Vintage mountain bike drop bar conversion thread". Lots of fun.

Velocivixen... very good post! The bike I just rode to a friend's house and back is exactly what you described. I originally purchased it thinking it was something else entirely. It's become the bike I ride the most, and in its 'genre', it isn't classic, but it is vintage by its age (1980). It's definitely a diamond in the rough; I've ridden it in two Tours de Fat, and a few of the weekly Denver Cruisers rides on Wednesday nights. It never fails to draw comments on its coolness!
If you are, it is by choice.
There are several vintage-themed events across the country. imo, they are sparsely attended. I have been to a few and the people are generally all the same, idiots who like old bikes. So feel free to go to any of the events, there is plenty of room, and you won't be "lonely". Simple as that.
Also, imo, the us versus them, vintage versus modern, is asinine.
@iab, awe, have you been scorned by a C&V enthusiast in the past? Buck up camper! If the replies to this thread are any indication, we are all a rather friendly bunch of "idiots." Was there an "us vs them" sentiment in the prior comments? Anyone? You "modern" riders are a swell bunch too!
I'm sorry that you think of us as 'idiots who like old bikes'.
Before this gets further out of hand...at the risk of speaking for iab, he was being quite ironic in his use of the phrase 'idiots who like old bikes.' That's just his style and if you've read his posts here it will not be surprising. If you haven't read his posts here or have no idea who he is, then you are either new here or have not been paying attention.
It's ironic because iab is the guy who spent MONTHS organizing a wonderful C&V weekend that has just concluded, staged from his family's farm in SW Wisconsin. Enthusiasts drove in from many states for this event--RobbieTunes called it the best bike event he's ever been to. Just read the thread: Announcing Centenario Bartali - July 18-19, 2014
So 'idiots who like old bikes' is very much iab, his friends (including me), and everyone here. It's just a joke 'between us' and it must be one of those 'only on the internet' problems that meant it was taken literally.
And like bandera says, iab personally has some of the coolest and most vintage bikes of anyone on the forum.
Also iab organizes the Chicagoland Spring Classic every year. To the extent that we have a 'community' of C&V enthusiasts online and off, iab is one of the people who nurtures it and keeps it going.
BTW he's right, there are lots of opportunities to join in on C&V type activities: group rides in several areas, co-ops, swap meets (usually winter) and so on. If there's nothing at all local, maybe there's a drive involved, but lots of us will do that in pursuit of a bike we want.
I am pretty much a solitary rider and fixer-upper but have really enjoyed getting to know the Chicago crew of enthusiasts through iab's rides and those organized by bibliobob. And as it's a pretty small world, you tend to run into the same people and get to know them: a guy I bought a derailleur from via CL turned out to be a friend of Bob's, Bob introduced me to a great freelance mechanic, a retired ironworker who is a fascinating guy, and I sometimes bring a small project to him just for the chance to hang out and learn from him. And so on.

I think @iab is referring to an attitude that can come from some road racers that can not see a point in riding "has beens".

- ecological assessment;

The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment (MA 2003) framework was applied to provide a holistic assessment and comparison of ecosystem services delivery from 11 environmental change network (ECN) sites, following a workshop of ECN site managers. A list of common variables was agreed to represent the high level categories defined by the MA. The resultant 73 variables, either direct ecosystem services or proxies, were divided into two subsets (readily accessible biogeographical data from all sites and additional site specific data). Similarity analysis of the biogeographical data indicated four site clusters: land with at least 50% forest cover, productive livestock farmland, uplands and a lowland grass/arable group. The first three clusters were also evident for both the additional data and for the larger combined dataset. The lowland grass/arable sites were a 'mixed use' cluster that was not apparent in the analysis of the additional or combined datasets indicating a mismatch between particular ecosystem services and specific landscapes/habitats. Procrustes analysis of the biogeographical data and the combined dataset suggested that the primary differences between datasets were due to variables associated with local management decisions which prevented harvesting of provisioning services or denied public access to the site. Drawing on comparable data from some of the most intensively researched and monitored ecosystems in the UK, this study demonstrates the challenges and limitations involved in attempting holistic assessments of ecosystem services at the site and inter-site level and highlights the importance of both local expert knowledge and consistent scientific measurement in contributing to the process.

I had chicken drumsticks leftover so I shredded it and added it to the pan with the cooked onions. Then added BBQ sauce and melted the cheese right in the pan. It was a delicious sandwich, like a pulled chicken recipe. I also added a splash of vinegar to cut the sweetness of the BBQ sauce.
this was the most awesome meal for my family! i added potato salad as the side. this gets 4 stars

This paper explores the creation and evolution of organized crime as a concept within the United States. The paper argues that traditional definitions are both incomplete and inaccurate due primarily to their reliance on La Cosa Nostra (i.e. Italian mafia) models and inflexibility. The author proposes the introduction of a new definition, and distinguishes between computer crime committed by organized crime groups and organized criminal activity in a technological environment. In addition, a distinction is made between organized crime and cyber-gangs. Finally, the author discusses specific examples of computer crime committed by criminal syndicates.

A woman who reported she was the victim of a sexual assault on the West Texas A&M University campus has dropped the allegation, police said.
WT police Lt. Patrick Coggins said the student contacted the police station Monday.
The woman on Friday reported she'd been assaulted in a residence hall sometime between 7 and 10 p.m. Thursday, Coggins said.
It was the second allegation of a sexual assault on the campus in three weeks.
WT police said a female student had reported an assault that took place in Buff Hall dormitory sometime the night of Nov. 13 or morning of Nov. 14. The investigation into that matter has been presented to the Randall County District Attorney's Office.
Coggins said investigators are waiting for lab results to be returned in that case.

If the main series ends, then it will be when:
a) there is no profit
b) there are no ideas (highly unlikely)
c) GameFreak is sold to a different company (we know that won't happen)
d) Ken Sugimori or Satoshi Tajiri leave GameFreak (that may or may not create the downfall of Pokemon, and is extremely unlikely.)
Oh, and the Pokemon Rainbow idea is awesome:

Just a thought.
Anyway, B2W2 could not be the last ones because of Gen III remakes, and also the fact that N was in another region for 2 years sparks questions... Also, they could still put together a Gray version... which would cover possibly not only the 2 year gap but also the two storylines from BW/B2W2.
I know the Gray idea is far-fetched, but it would be cool...
