Winter wonders Page 2 Vol. 14 No. 46 Frederick, Maryland 21705 Friday, January 8, 1999 250 Cowboy entertainer lives the part By KAREN GARDNER Assistant Entertainment Editor Ron McGinley can twirl ropes, spin pistols and crack whips with the Kest of 'em. He pans for gold and when he's relaxing, it's often on his horse, Traveler. Mr. McGinley is a Westerner at heart, although he was born and raised in Washington, D.C., and has lived near Frederick more than 30 years. He has performed his Western act before a Frederick Keys game, at a local nursing home, at the opening of a Western wear store and at a Wild West show in New York Now he's doing parties and conven- tions. He can envelop three fads in his twirling rope, and got his picture m The (Baltimore) Sun doing just that trick. "I like to he said "It just takes a little practice. I keep the ropes with me constantly, and practice maybe 10 hours a week in the winter, and 20 hours in the summer On a bitter cold winter day, he demonstrated his technique for about 20 minutes before declaring his hands numb. Then he reminisced about win- ters in Arizona, where he and his wife like to travel at least once a year "Temperatures are about 70 during the day, and it gets down to about freezing at night." Mr. McGinley, 55. drives a tour bus in Washington, D C, for a living, and acts as a tour guide at some of the major tourist sites He fell m love with the West as a child, watching Roy Rogers, Gene Autry and Tom Mix on the big screen. "There's something about the he said "You get a different sensation out there. The farther I can see the happier I am." He has ridden horses through Monument Valley, traced the steps of Wyatt Earp at the OK Corral, met the son of Gerommo and stayed in the town of Wickiup, Ariz., which bills itself as "the rattlesnake capital of the world." All of this got him featured on a cable TV show, "Cable in Winchester, Va, last year After the opening credits, Mr McGinley is shown performing his act to music from the old John Wayne classic "She Wore a Yellow Ribbon "I know that the West is not guns Mr McGinley said. Still, he said, "Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp are my favorite heroes I think they were men of courage." Besides watching old movies and vis- iting such Old West landmarks as Old Tucson and the Roy Rogers Museum, Mr. McGinley has read serious biogra- phies of many Western characters, including Jesse James, Billy the Kid, Gen. George A. Custer, Sitting Bull, Chief Joseph and Gerommo. "The West was wonby brave men, but brave men killed other brave he said, referring to the Indian massacres It was also more a state of mind than a geographical location, he said. "The West starts right he said. "Lewis and Clark picked up weapons in Harpers Ferry, and gold was discovered in Virginia and Georgia He has panned for gold in such unlikely places as Maine, Staff photos bv Timothv Jacobsen "Cowboy Ron" McGinley twirls two ropes in a mirror image of themselves. He has a whole repertoire of rope tricks, including the handshake and the butterfly. The chaps he's wearing weigh 20 pounds. Flanking Mr. McGinley are posters he's collected advertising early Wild West shows. where he once found 24 flakes. Gold, he said, can be found in 35 states "The West is nothing but a group of frontiers, mining, cattle and he said. Cowboys, with their independent attitude and sense of adventure, added to the image. He's not a cowboy, however. "Cowboy work is hard he said "They work 15-hour days. I like being an entertainer. I like to travel. I like the outdoors, camping and fishing." He also likes to ride He and his wife, Louise, recently bought horses, and he rides whenever he can Traveler, his horse, is not named after the well-known mount of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee, however. He's named for Mr. McGinley's love of travel It was five years ago, while riding hors- es near Front Royal, Va., that Mr. McGinley first saw rope tricks performed. He began practicing, and now does tricks including the butterfly and the handshake "I was told by another entertainer that the hardest thing about the butterfly is learning it, and the second hardest thing is learning how to make money while you're doing he said His ropes have weights and counter weights that help in balance. He has three ropes, all made of cotton, which must be special-ordered. One is 15 feet long, one is 30 feet long and one is 55 feet long Each is looped at one end, and the edge of the loop helps to determine the kind of twirling that can be done One of his ropes has a "slow burner" loop, which gives better control A string of wax thread is sewn through the rope with pliers. His guns are the shiny, metal firearms that one imagines a cowboy wearing in his holster They won't be used in any gun- fights, however He keeps them unloaded. Occasionally, he's asked to perform with blanks He's also called upon to crack a whip, which explodes in a noise loud enough to break the sound barrier Learning that wasn't easy, he said "Wear goggles when you're learning, and make sure nobody's behind you." he said Besides entertainment. Mr McGinley. has published a magazine of short stones, called Rest of the West, and a novel. "From Nowhere The plot follows a typi- cal Western scenano It centers on a gun- man, a woman rancher and an orphaned boy, and their attempts to succeed at ranch life in Arizona "Writing those was a way to pay for a trip across the country." he said It worked. "I broke he said. He plans a sequel to the magazine and a new novel in the next year "If you know the start and finish of a story, everything else is he said What's going on in the Frederick Area Senior Fellowship activities The following activities will be held Jan. 11-15 at the Frederick Senior Fellowship Center, 520 N.

In response to southpaw777's comment:
In response to smuldy84's comment:
Yes, it speaks volumes fred. That hes not willing to part with solid prospects and give up on the future for an oft injured pitcher for 1 year and the bloated contract of the selfish Jose Reyes for 5/95. The same skillset of Crawford, with an injury history making north of 20M. Im glad your not our GM with your constant negative and unrealistic attitude. Ive been respectful, but your just like some on here that are just trying to get under others skin.
My guess is you became a Sox fan during 2004. Am I right?
Reyes is NOT Crawford. Other than speed Reyes has never had an atrocius year OBP wise, doesn't strike out much, played in New York just fine, bats leadoff, switch hitter, is 2 years younger and plays a premium defense at a position where power isn't needed. Crawford is older hated batting leadoff played a defensive position (especially at Fenway) where his speed provided less benefit than his weak arm took and where 20+ home run power is ABSOLUTELY essential. Totally different cases.

Roxio Media Manager kills me. Whenever I start the Computer it
tires to install Roxio Media Manager which is not succesful. It binds the
the Windows Installer which is running 100% CUP capacity. A never ending
story. The only way to stop to kill with Task Manager both Roxio Media
Manager in Task Manager and stop the Installer by ending the process. As
soon as I start another Microsoft Product the installation process restarts!
I never intended to install a thing like Roxio Media Manager. How can I stop
that? I don't find it in the Autostart section.

ST. JOHNSBURY Prosecutors plan to present evidence that the killing of a popular teacher by a couple two years ago was sexually motivated.
The Caledonia County states attorney has filed new allegations against Patricia and Allen Prue, the Waterford couple charged with murder in the killing of 33-year-old Melissa Jenkins, of St. Johnsbury, on March 25, 2012.
Among the new allegations filed Jan. 31, the state says evidence shows that Patricia Prues computer was used to conduct online searches for how to get kids to get into your car, how to get kids, how to kidnap a girl and how to rape a girl and not get caught, The Caledonian Record reported.
The state also says Allen Prue used Facebook to contact young women, including one who was pregnant, even though she asked him to stop because she didnt know him.
The state has alleged that the Prues felt snubbed after Jenkins declined Allen Prues request for a date.
The Prues have pleaded not guilty. They are to be tried separately.
Allen Prues lawyer said Tuesday that he had not discussed the allegations with his client but said he believes the filings related to allegations of prior bad conduct by his client likely would not be allowed at trial. Patricia Prues attorney did not immediately return a phone call seeking comment.MORE IN This Just InWATERBURY CENTER The Harwood golf team closed out the regular season Wednesday on its home...

Yep, it's about ten years since Greg McLean took audiences to the outback and scared them silly with "Wolf Creek." The original only made around $27 million worldwide, but it was enough to spawn this follow-up a decade later, and it looks like it's more harrowing horror in the wilds of Australia.
John Jarrat is back as the ruthless Mick Taylor, and this time he's got a whole new game. The sequel finds him terrorizing the young, wide-eyed, city slickers Rutger and Katarina who have dared to backpack and explore the "real" Australia. Well, things will get "real" in a whole other way when Mick puts his sights on them. In short, it looks like if you dug the first movie, this one will be right up your alley, with more sun-baked tension to work up your spine.
"Wolf Creek 2" opens later this year. Watch below.

The front office assistants are wonderful and always friendly and will answer any questions. The maintenance crew is very prompt and never makes us wait long if there is a problem.
Thank you for your kindness!
The grounds are well maintained. The staff is very helpful and the community is very user friendly.
Thank you so much for your positive review.
Office and maintenance staff are super friendly and always helpful.
Thank you very much.
Thank you very much for this positive review.
Good community, safe and quiet. Maintenance issues take a little long. Hate the fact that they let a towing company inspect residents car and threatening to tow cars if something is outdated. I pay good money here not to be bothered by a tow company.
We want everyone to be happy at Ocean Pebbles. If you get a notice on your vehicle, contact the office if you have special circumstances, and we will do everything possible to accomodate your needs.
The kitchen/bathroom cabinetry is old & outdated. The bathrooms seem to be updated using cheap plastic bathtub kits. Looks cheap and old. Problems w/mold, leaky sinks and a/c units. Dry wall repair very sloppy. Parking is an issue. I feel that if you rent an apartment with 2 bedrooms, you should automatically get 2 spaces and so forth. Guest parking passes would be great. I notice alot of non guest using spots to access boardwalk. Carpet in excellent condition. Exterior needs tlc.
Thank you for your review. We would like to resolve all of these issues for you. Please contact the rental office and let us know your address and we will respond right away. Our hope is to have you as a very happy resident for years! You don't have to admit that this is your email, just say you responded to our request for a review and we asked you to let us know what we need to do to make you happy. The parking problem is something we are working on for you.

Happy St. Patrick's Day
Hooray! Jody gets back from San Francisco today! He's been gone AGAIN for four days this past week. This week was harder than last. I'm sure it's because it was two weeks in a row of having him gone. Ava seems to miss him a lot more this week too and had a couple of really rough nights, though thankfully she slept well last night and is actually still snoozing. She needs the Zzzzzzs. Anyway, I'm happy to say he shouldn't have to travel again for a few months. We hooked up with some friends yesterday at a cafe and the kids got to playRead More →

We don't know when Judge Friedman in Detroit's U.S. District Court will announce his decision involving Michigan's same sex marriage ban.
But waiting for the decision has been tough emotionally and physically for county clerks and same-sex couples who are preparing for what may or may not happen.
News Ten's Alyssa Fenske will have the details tonight at six.

Anybody ridden their bike between NYC and Philly? I'm looking for suggestions on best routes -- like the nice one along the delaware or the ****e one through jersey. What have people done, and what should I avoid?
Can't be done. Don't try it.
My Current Bikes:
- 1993 Giant Kronos
- 1974 Zeus (in restoration)

i also want to know...
are you saying because of the terrain? It's approx 85-100 miles, depending on what route you take. The distance is perfectly feasible.Originally Posted by SingleSpeeDemon
chinatown bus is the correct route to take
PM Rikardi 151. He's done it.
If it's worth the going it's worth the ride.
YEP! that group was Me, Stet, Mattgarfield and another person who is not on the forums. I was going to say "Check out the Bicycle Club of Philadelphia" (http://www.phillybikeclub.org/) since they have a lot of que sheets on their site, but when I checked for myself, they didnt have any posted for NYC. I have a cue sheet on my wall that will bring you from philly to NYC if you would like it. I have no way of scanning it but I can make a copy of it for you if you are in philly. Anyway, PM me and we can arrange it. Its not a horrible ride, gets a little hilly in North Jersey but with the right gearing you will be fine.Originally Posted by BostonFixed
Have fun!

This summer we took Rt 13 to get from Philly to Trenton. I later learned that it may not have been entirely legal, but it was reasonably safe and quiet. We had to dash across Rt. 1 to get to the Trenton Makes bridge to get out of PA, but that was doable. Then I think we took 206 from Trenton to Princeton, but I can't remember for sure. Whatever we did, the route was pleasant. We stopped in Princeton for lunch.Originally Posted by genericbikedude
One thing I won't forget is that taking Rt. 27 between Princeton to Newark is possibly the scariest thing I've ever done. I'd avoid that.
I'm thinking of trying this tomorrow:
Comments or hints?
Edit: actually for various reasons it can't be tomorrow. but hints and suggestions still welcome.
Last edited by genericbikedude; 01-01-07 at 07:33 PM.
approx how long does it take? factoring in breaks and flats and all
Newark of all places...hah, i guess you could then take the train over to nyc or find a way to a bridge...but anyway, when you leave philadelphia and get into the bensalem area, dont take knights road to street rd. instead, stay on frankford until you get to humeville, and take humeville to old lincoln highway. i used to have a friend that lived up there and i know that this is a nicer ride than taking street roadOriginally Posted by genericbikedude
I used part of this guy's route to do it, but took the NJT over the river into Newark and rode an alternate road to route 27 instead. The rest of NJ is pretty easy. You end up on a highway for a while after entering PA but once you hook up with 13 you're good to go. It was 70some miles.
Fate is the Hunter
What are they doing? Why do they come here? Some kind of instinct. Memory, of what they used to do. This was an important place in their lives.
What was your alternate road? I'd like to try a different route the next time I do this...Originally Posted by ch0mb0
if you check the local NJ road maps between rahway and newark, you will find route 1 which is an absolute pain to ride on. bad conditions and vehicles zooming right up your ass. total MiG alley - avoid it if you can.
however, just a few blocks over to the west is a parallel road that is much quieter and follows alongside the NJT tracks all the way up to newark. you're riding thru suburbs at first, and as you get closer to newark it gets a little rougher. still, an easy ride.

Setting up an asynchronous task queue for Django using Celery and Redis
Celery is a powerful, production-ready asynchronous job queue, which allows you to run time-consuming Python functions in the background. A Celery powered application can respond to user requests quickly, while long-running tasks are passed onto the queue. In this article we will demonstrate how to add Celery to a Django application using Redis.
Setting up Jenkins as a continuous integration server for Django
Jenkins is an easy-to-use open-source continuous integration server. In this post we'll go through steps needed to set up Jenkins to deploy your Django application and run unit tests whenever someone commits code to your project's repository. If the new code causes any of your tests to fail, Jenkins will send the commiter an email alert.
My new book "Webmin Administrator's Cookbook" available from Packt
I recently wrote a book about administering Unix and Linux servers with the aid of the friendly and versatile utility called Webmin. The book covers a wide variety of topics, from setting up and securing a new server to running and monitoring databases (MySQL, Postgres), a web server (Apache) and a mail server (Postfix).
The book is written as a series of 120 step-by-step recipes, which should be easily accessible to both novice and professional system administrators. Check it out to see how Webmin can make your life easier. The book is currently available from Packt Publishing.
Performance testing Django applications with The Grinder
Performance testing web applications is a little tricky when we want to test features accessible only to logged in users. Automated test recorders intercept session cookies and hardcode them into test scenarios. When we run these tests later, different session IDs are generated and recorded cookie values don't grant access anymore. This text demonstrates how to write a scenario for The Grinder to test a Django application. Tests include user login, submitting CSRF-protected forms and AJAX requests.
Serving multiple Django applications with Nginx and Gunicorn
Nginx makes a great server for your Gunicorn-powered Django applications. In this article I will demonstrate how you can run multiple Django applications on the same Nginx server, hosting sites on two different domains. Each application will be set up in its own Virtualenv and each will be owned by and run as a different user to limit consequences of a potential security breach.
Recording a website performance test for The Grinder using Chrome DevTools
The Grinder load testing framework is a good tool for stress testing your website or application. It can run tests in parallel on multiple machines, allowing you to check how your application would behave under heavy load. This makes it possible to determine your app's weak points, so you can proceed to optimize them. Unfortunately the TCPProxy component provided with The Grinder sometimes produces flawed testing scripts. I created a simple tool called har2grinder, which produces Grinder test scripts from HAR files. This allows you to record a browsing session using Chrome's DevTools and then run it in the Grinder.
Setting up Django in Virtualenv on WebFaction's Apache with mod_wsgi
If you want to run a Django application on WebFaction, you may simply use their automatic application creation scripts. Unfortunately, if you want to place your application in a Virtualenv, the automatic installer will not help you. I'm sure that WebFaction will eventually add an installer to set this up, but for now, you can use the following tutorial. In this text we set up a Django project in a Virtualenv running on WebFaction's Apache with mod_wsgi.

Have you previously experienced a bad condition and you've not known what direction to go about it? Naturally you've. Most of us have. However, because that seems to assist us better when it comes to truly coping with the situation some of us often walkaround like zombies in the middle of our despair. But there is good news and that media is the undeniable fact that a paydayloan online has the convenience of snapping you from the trance and receiving you back along with your lifestyle.
Wage advance is a unique loan structure, where you are able to get cash in advance to correct your temporary monetary turmoil. It's similar to a short term loan advanced against your payday. This implies that the sum is available to you limited to a period of time of 2- 4 weeks. The amount authorized is dependant on your regular revenue and it is usually within the array of 100-1500. It is possible to expand the settlement stint but just on appropriate reasons.
For these reasons, employing online cash advance loans reliably could be the ideal solution for all those in need of money in a pinch as well as with poor credit. There are many factors before you determine to have a cash advance loan to consider, nevertheless.
It's always superior to learn what it is you're allowed to do so far as restrictions that are credit. There are from employing their people, certainly a few states that have restricted these loans. In case you are licensed in such a method and also you do take out a quick-term mortgage and then have difficulties, the state won't be supporting your fights from the primary lender. Respected businesses may follow all state regulations, therefore learn the financial institution prepared to mortgage against laws can also be generating other bad practice selections.
There are various strengths related to cash advance online which include faxless mortgage application procedure, no security and no credit assessments. Hence, even if you got any adverse credit issues, you are permitted to consider loan happily without the threat. To get this loan are you focused on safety? There's no element pledging collateral in order to avail for mortgage.
The second kind of checking account which everyone needs to have can be an emergency account. This fund is to address the unforeseen charges caused by lifestyle. The car breaks down or problems would be created by dishwasher stops functioning in a normal budget that is organized. Having this consideration that was added available for emergencies gives much needed reduction to your stressed budget. Expenses which could usually harm monthly financial goals and routinely appear. It's these bills plus whatever else which creep up throughout the month. Take a look at can be as your way out-of counting on a cash advance lender or using your vehicle for an automobile title loan. Fast money in to your arms without awareness or costs looks good.
For the time being while you discover your credit is not taken into consideration. You will get the finance you have to protect your entire day's cost -to-day expenditures explicitly.
