Hey all-
Just thought I would make my first post I'm Rex and a grad student at Kansas State U in Manhattan, KS. Originally from Cortez Colorado. I biked a lot as a kid with my dad, but got out of it for a long time up until last year. Still consider myself a newbie, and trying to learn as much as I can. At 6', 200 lbs I also tend to feel a little physically out-of -the loop at local road rides, but its still a good time!
My MTB is a 05 Yeti 575 with XTR components, and I'm currently riding my father's old 1984 ( I think ) Al. Schwinn 564 road bike with updated Shimano 105 group and Vuelta wheels. I just started building my winter project road bike, which I'm sure I will have plenty of questions about. Its a Czech-made FORT SLC frame, stella azzura carbon front fork and integrated Canes Creek HS. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...=STRK:MEWAX:IT
I'm hoping to go with the Ice-Grey 10 speed Shimano Ultegra group, and unsure of wheels / other accessories at this point. Hopefully it should be an educational experience. Well that's enough about me- if anyone is around Manhattan, Kansas or Cortez, CO and would like to ride (mountain or road) let me know! I look forward to getting to know you all-
Rex R

Seriously, how can this name justify a 40+ multiple?
Huge debt load, dicey dealings, profits trapped overseas questionable growth.....
the only thing that propped up these shares were the shorts covering and that looks to be over.
New wave of hedgie shorts will drive this down to 50 by the end of October.
When I cover at 49 I will go out and buy a Tesla Roadster and I just want to thank the bagholders that bought my borrowed shares the other day at 69.25: Thanks dude.

Do you remember a stock called BIGT? Check it out please, it was called Pinnacle Holdings.
Raymond James had a BUY recommendation on BIGT too. Right up until the Chapter 11 filing.
Pinnacle Holdings was a tower company too. They had a lot of debt from acquisitions.
If you live long enough, you get to see everything. And some things twice.
Mr C is right.
This stock is fatter than a spawning river salmon, just ripe for a late summer hungry bear.
But I'll wait patiently for the hopium addicted momentum traders to bid her up to 75.
72 maybe,
This is the ONLY post listed for a user named mister 'cthanonchal'. He must be the real deal?
I hardly think so.
Please say you don't do this for a living.
OK. I don't do this for a living.
I don't post messages and replies on Yahoo Finance message boards for a living.
And I don't work for any carriers or tower company or bank or non-bank lender.
And I don't work for Muddy Waters.
I'm a REIT analyst.
And now I'm an investor with a negative outlook on AMT. I'm short as of today at 74.50.

DeAndre Yedlin and Lamar Neagle will sit out Wednesday's game in Kansas City, along with Seattle's several injured players, after they received red cards on Saturday.
If Sounders FC's rampant injury situation wasn't crazy enough, add a couple of suspensions to the mix.
Yes, Seattle's dire personnel issues worsened over the weekend heading into Wednesday's road game against Sporting Kansas City. Forward Lamar Neagle and defender DeAndre Yedlin were ejected late in Saturday's 2-2 tie at Philadelphia, meaning an automatic one-game suspension for both.
"I am not happy about us getting the two (red) cards," coach Sigi Schmid said.
Neagle, a Federal Way native, was sent off along with Union defender Sheanon Williams for a particularly heated shoving match in the 84th minute. Schmid said he was confused by the decision from referee Jorge Gonzalez, and Williams said he thought he and Neagle deserved yellow cards, at worst.

Most Read Stories
Yedlin was ejected later for a reckless slide tackle on Michael Farfan in the first minute of stoppage time. The 19-year-old was one of two Sounders to have played in each game this season.
Seattle has used 11 different starting lineups in 11 games.
"It is tough for us … but we have to figure it out quickly," said midfielder Mauro Rosales. "Every guy in training needs to concentrate on stepping onto the field and trying to do the same as the other guys."
The Sounders had actually come out of the bye week with injuries worse than before.
Forward Obafemi Martins (knee), midfielder Steve Zakuani (groin) and midfielder Shalrie Joseph (hamstring) each were out Saturday having played in Colorado two weeks before.
Also unavailable was midfielder Osvaldo Alonso, who stayed in Seattle over the weekend to be with his wife, Liang, who gave birth to their second child, Paulina, on Friday.
Though, in some positive news, indications Saturday were that Martins and Alonso would be ready to join the team in Kansas City this week (the Sounders flew straight there from Philadelphia instead of returning home).
Lucky break
The Sounders appeared fortunate a penalty kick wasn't called against them in the final minute of stoppage time when defender Leo Gonzalez blocked a shot with his hand in the penalty box.
The referee waved to play on and blew the final whistle moments later.
Union coach John Hackworth fumed to reporters: "I'll raise my hand and I'll take the fine, but it has to be said: We cannot be in this league, have this level of play and have officiating be this bad."
"Having watched some replays from the last 10 minutes, it absolutely blew my mind. Full credit to Seattle, they are a very good team, but that should not have ended in a draw. There's a clear penalty at the end of the game and how it's not called is beyond me."

Why We Need Fannie Mae And Freddie Mac
Fannie Mae (FNM) and Freddie Mac (FRE) are two of the most hated agencies on Wall Street. These quasi government agencies are blamed for much of the problems related to the housing crisis. They are criticized for backing risky loans and encouraging an environment of risk taking by guaranteeing liar loans. Many politicians and citizens have even called for the abolishment of both agencies. Although Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae may be terrible investments, they are a necessary cog in our economy.

3 Worst Jobs To Have Right Now
There are many magazines that do rankings of the worst jobs in America. These rankings are based on salary, employee happiness, hours worked, and growth prospects.

3 Stocks That Have Been Cheap For A Decade
I have the learned the hard way that just because a stock is cheap does not mean it is a good investment. It can be tough sometimes to distinguish between a value play and a value trap. Value plays are stocks that are trading below their true value and will eventually reach this value. Value traps meanwhile are companies that appear to be trading cheaply but are trading at their current level for good reasons.
Here are 3 stocks that have been cheap for a long long time.

We are extremely proud that SOGA athlete Elena Weaver was chosen as one of the 2013 CSA recipients for her service at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (CHOA). Since September 2008, Elena has volunteered three days a week and almost 3,000 hours in Guest Services. She collects wheelchairs and wagons for the children, cleans toys, puts together information packets, shares smiles with the children, delivers flowers, and does whatever she can to offer a little bit of comfort and help to the patients and their families. (She and her family know all too well what it's like to spend time at CHOA). Elena was recognized for her outstanding service at the CSA Dinner on April 23rd, and she was the only award recipient to receive a standing ovation at the conclusion of her video package and acceptance speech. As part of the CSA, Elena was able to direct an award gift to the charity of her choice. Elena decided to split this gift between CHOA and SOGA, with the SOGA donation going towards sending three athletes to SOGA's Camp Inspire this summer. Congratulations Elena and the entire Weaver family on this great honor. We can't think of anyone more deserving, and we are extremely proud that you are a part of the Special Olympics Georgia family!

Rossignol Cuda Snowboard BindingView Larger Image

High performance freestyle demands a burly, responsive binding, and the Rossignol Cuda snowboard binding comes to mind. It's built on the same HCX33 base plate as the hard charging XV binding, and it's mated to a more flexible 3D Contour Light highback, with Heel Grip inserts for added response. Rossi then added MagneBed S3R footbeds, which are canted 3 degrees to align your legs, and they've got a bunch of padding to smooth out harsh snow conditions. The cushy 40 oz. straps fight hot spots, and they're held tight by AsymLight aluminum buckles. They're everything you need, without any of the frivolous extras.

if you look at the data, the guys spending over 100$ oO on the game got 4 legendary.
now look at the teams of the top pvp players who have full teams of 80ish max combined legendaries
it is ok to like the pvp and even have fun in mid range but no one should have any illusions that they come up with a strategy or grind long enough to get a team that beat those 1000+$ guys at the top imho.
as i see it its more like a money vs player then a real pvp game

The best & worst from Sochi
Gaffes, glowing people and gaudy costumes at Olympic opening ceremony
And the gold medal for Outrunning a Massive Public Relations Avalanche goes to … the Sochi Olympics Opening Ceremony! And billions cheered.
Injured athletes. Gay-rights protests. Terrorist threats. Russia's 2014 Winter Olympics have been operating under a bad-vibe storm cloud of disaster-movie proportions for what seems like 20 winters now. And while there is still plenty of time for all kinds of snowy hell to break loose, for the benefit of the 3 billion worldwide TV viewers at home, Friday's Opening Ceremonies (which aired in the U.S. on NBC), put on a shiny, happy pageant face.
In the grand, bloated tradition of all Olympics opening ceremonies, the Sochi bash went on way too long and featured an awful lot of artful chest beating. But save for a few gaffes, nothing went tragically wrong, which made it a much better show than most outsiders could have expected. The streets may be full of stray dogs (at least the ones who haven't been euthanized yet), and the slopestyle course may be too scary for Shaun White, but Russia and her cast of thousands pulled off the Olympics' first act.
From the thrill of ballet in the fake snow to the agony of Team USA's eye-gouging uniforms, here is a look at the Sochi Opening Ceremonies. The good, the bad and the selfies.
Buzz-kill award: To NBC, for devoting the first 35 minutes of the three-plus hour broadcast to material that was most definitely Not the Opening Ceremonies. There was a video tribute to our gracious hosts. (Nesting dolls. Ballet. Vodka.) Bob Costas chatted up President Obama. And don't forget the tour of Sochi with tennis star and Olympic torch carrier Maria Sharapova. (She grew up there!)
We get it. The Olympics are about more than snowboarders and ice skaters. Is it luge time yet?
Best first impression: When the ceremony finally began, it opened with a few bangs (Just fireworks, folks) and some astounding visual poetry. After a gorgeous video tribute to the Best of Russia (Tchaikovsky, Nabokov, Sputnik), 11-year-old Elizaveta Temnikova flew over Fisht Olympic Stadium while the floor filled with smoke, realistic looking snow, elaborately costumed dancers, and at least one horse. It didn't reach the hallucinatory heights of Beijing's opening ceremony, but it was quite lovely.
Worst first impression: It's a tie. First up, Team NBC, whose announcers broke the mood by refusing to stop prattling during those first magical moments. But the Big Snafu Award goes to the giant snowflake that was supposed to turn into the fifth Olympic ring but stubbornly stayed a snowflake. This moment of International Misfortune got a do-over for the hometown crowd. The Russian broadcast substituted footage from a rehearsal, where the snowflake-to-ring transformation apparently went off without a hitch. No need to upset the natives.
Most baffling moments: The arrival of the Synchronized Glowing People during the raising of the Russian flag. The Russian history mini-movie that aired after the Parade of Nations, which looked like a cross between "Game of Thrones" and a Disney commercial. Baffling, but kind of awesome.
Best announcer trivia: Elizaveta the Flying Girl broke her arm while rehearsing for the ceremonies seven months ago. This is the largest U.S. Winter Olympics team ever assembled. There is no word for "ski" in the Timor-Leste dialect. Nepal has the only non-rectangular flag in the world. Russian President Vladimir Putin likes to ski, ride horses shirtless and critique all Russian textbooks.
Best uniforms: Team Greece, which looked tasteful in turquoise. Belgium, in streamlined gray and acid-orange. Italy's sophisticated navy blue coats with white accents. Norway's sparkling white coats and baby-blue pants.

Signing day: Some non-football signings of note
AUSTIN PLACE, Edmond Santa Fe
* College: Buffalo
* Sport: Soccer
Austin Place thought he was all set to head north to Western Michigan and play soccer.
Then, the Edmond Santa Fe defender decided to head a little farther north.
When the coach who recruited him at Western Michigan left to take the head coaching job at the University of Buffalo, Place decided to give the program in upstate New York near Lake Ontario a chance. He made a visit a few weeks ago.
"And I absolutely loved it," Place said. "The day I got back ... I committed immediately."
Now, he's headed to Buffalo, a city that gets more than 80 inches of snow annually to play soccer.
"I'm not one to be like, 'I need it hot or I need it cold,'" Place said. "I'll adapt. Whenever I went up there, it wasn't too bad. I brought everything I possibly could ... but it wasn't too bad. I guess I'll survive four years."
SOPHIA BRAZIL, Deer Creek
*College: Oklahoma Christian
*Sport: Soccer
Deer Creek's Sophia Brazil has a great example on what it takes to make it as a college athlete.
Brazil's stepmom is former Oklahoma softball player Sandy Ochoa, who played for the Sooners in the late '80s.
Brazil's talents, though, are on the soccer field. On Wednesday, she signed her letter of intent with Oklahoma Christian.
"She said it's a great way to go through college," Brazil said. "Being an athlete and getting scholarships, it helps you financially but it's a great experience in general. It prepares you for life working with a team and stuff."
Brazil, a forward, began playing soccer at the age of 3, and she instantly fell in love with the sport.
Her parents attempted to have her play other sports, but she always returned to soccer.
"At a young age we just tried to teach her the discipline, the dedication, the desire to go above and beyond what everybody else was doing," Ochoa said.
It was a smart choice.
Brazil was part of last season's Class 5A championship team, which had four players sign to play collegiately.
She was the lone signee this season, though. And she was prepared for it.
DJ Gasso
*College: Weatherford (Texas) College
*Sport: Baseball
Norman North's DJ Gasso has been through a lot during his high school career.
He suffered a torn patellar tendon early last baseball season after developing tendinitis in both knees during the previous football season.
Nearly a year later, though, the pain he went through to get back first on the football field and now on the baseball field seems worth it after he signed Wednesday to play baseball at Weatherford (Texas) College.
"It's a relief," Gasso, the son of Oklahoma softball coach Patty Gasso, said. "Growing up, you think about wanting to play in college and to get a chance to do that, I'm really excited."
Gasso wasn't the only Timberwolves player signing with Weatherford. Luke Jones also signed with the Coyotes.
"We've been playing together since we were in fifth grade," Gasso said. "I'm going with my best friend. It's great that we get to stick together in college."
Braeden Bradshaw
*College: Seminole State
*Sport: Softball
Southmoore's Braeden Bradshaw plays quite a few sports.
"Basketball, track, cheer and gymnastics," Bradshaw said. "I've done just about everything besides golf, tennis and lacrosse."
But there was little doubt that she was going to be a softball player as well.
"I really don't think I had a choice," Bradshaw said. "It's a family thing."
Her father, Chris, played on Oklahoma's 1994 national championship baseball team.
Wednesday, Braeden signed to play softball at Seminole State.
"It's a lot to take in," she said. "It's a big step but I'm excited for it."
Bradshaw settled on Seminole State last summer and even though some four-year schools tried to recruit her, she was set on her destination.
"I knew that's where I wanted to be all along," she said.

Fire destroys home in ChittendenBy Lucia Suarez
Staff Writer | February 06,2013Vyto Starinskas / Staff Photo
CHITTENDEN — Heavy dark smoke covered a single-family home on Holden Road late Wednesday morning as local firefighters worked to douse flames that had spread to the attic.
Several firefighter teams used long prods and saws to make various holes throughout the house to allow smoke to exit the house while they worked to find flames and hot spots throughout.
A firefighter on the scene said the house is a total loss.
Firefighters from five towns – Chittenden, Pittsford, Brandon, Proctor, Rutland Town and West Rutland – responded to the scene around 10 a.m.
Paul Crain, who rents the house with his girlfriend and three kids, said he had just arrived home after dropping his girlfriend off at work when he noticed the smoke.
"I came in the door and whoosh (the smoke)," he said while looking at firefighters dousing the home. "I went through the smoke and grabbed my dog and got out."
Crain said nobody was home when it started, but said the flames were coming from the basement.
As of 1:45 p.m. the cause of the fire is unknown.MORE IN This Just InWASHINGTON Many of Americas young adults appear to be in no hurry to move out of their old...

The VSE library defines mechanisms for accessing native python types. This recipe shows how a reference to a native python object interface can be passed over a link, and native python methods can be seamlessly called from the remote side.
The below code defines a gateway which returns a python object reference, and client-side code for accessing the object.
>>> from versile.vse.native.python import VPythonObject
>>> from versile.quick import *
>>> # Load all VSE modules (including VNativeModule)
... VSEResolver.add_imports()
>>> class Gateway(VExternal):
... @publish(show=True, doc=True, ctx=False)
... def get_python_list(self):
... """Return a reference to a python list object."""
... l = [5, -2, b'txt', 1.3]
... return VPythonObject(l)
>>> Versile.set_agpl_internal_use()
>>> VSEResolver.enable_vse()
>>> client_link = link_pair(gw1=None, gw2=Gateway())[0]
>>> gw = client_link.peer_gw()
>>> # Retreive a python object reference and activate the proxy interface
... obj = gw.get_python_list()
>>> type(obj)
<class 'versile.vse.native.python.VPython2'>
>>> obj._v_activate()
>>> # Perform remote operations on the remote list reference
... str(obj)
"[5, -2, 'txt', 1.3]"
>>> obj.append(100)
>>> obj = obj[2:]
>>> str(obj)
"['txt', 1.3, 100]"
>>> client_link.shutdown()
As the example shows a reference to the remote list object can be (mostly) accessed similarly to a local native object, due to overloading on the local proxy interface.
In order to use the proxy interface on a reference to a native object, the versile.vse.native.VNative._v_activate() method must be called first. This is a security feature in order to prevent accidentally accessing remote object features. However, once a reference has been activated, any native object references returned by performing actions on the object are also automatically activated.
Remote access to native objects can be a powerful feature. Combined with proper authentication and authorization it enables use cases such as remote scripting or remote system management.

An Everett police officer was charged Monday with first-degree manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a man who was seated in a car during a confrontation outside a restaurant in June.
An Everett police officer was charged Monday with first-degree manslaughter in the fatal shooting of a man who was seated in a car during a confrontation outside a restaurant in June.
Officer Troy Meade, 41, is accused of recklessly causing the death of Niles Meservey in the parking lot of the Chuckwagon Inn in North Everett. Meade was responding to a 911 call reporting a drunk customer trying to drive away when he confronted Meservey, then opened fire, according to charging papers filed in Snohomish County Superior Court.
Meade was not arrested and there are no plans to take him into custody, said Snohomish County Chief Criminal Deputy Prosecutor Joan Cavagnaro.

Cavagnaro said Meade is the first Snohomish County law-enforcement officer to be charged criminally for shooting someone while on duty in nearly 25 years.
Meservey's daughter, Tanda Louden, of Holdingford, Minn., filed a civil claim against the city last month. The claim, for $5 million to $15 million, is a precursor to a lawsuit.
"While my family takes some measure of comfort in knowing this man will be held accountable for his actions, nothing the city can do will bring my father back to me and my family," Louden said in a prepared statement.
Meade's lawyer, David Allen, said Monday he had not read a 900-page investigative report that preceded the charges, but he added, "I strongly believe that he acted legally" based on the court filing.
"Officer Meade is a dedicated police officer. He was faced with a very difficult and dangerous situation in which the lives of police and the lives of bystanders were in danger," Allen said.
Meade arrived at the Chuckwagon Inn, in the 6700 block of Evergreen Way, around 11:40 p.m. on June 10 and approached Meservey while the Stanwood man was sitting inside his white Chevrolet Corvette, charging papers said. Everett Officer Steven Klocker heard Meade repeatedly ordering Meservey out of the vehicle.
When Meservey, 51, didn't comply, Meade fired his Taser, charging papers said. Meservey asked the officer, "Why did you do that?" and started up the car, which was boxed in by three police cruisers, charging papers said.
When the Corvette lurched forward, Meade, who was standing several feet behind and to the left of Meservey's vehicle, yelled "Time to end this; enough is enough," and drew his gun, charging papers said.
Meservey was shot seven times in the back, shoulder and wrist, court charging papers said. Detectives found eight bullet casings near the Corvette, charging papers said.
A witness told investigators Meservey was reciting the Lord's Prayer when he was pulled from the car. He died at the scene.
An autopsy later determined Meservey had a blood-alcohol level of 0.26, more than three times the state's legal limit of 0.08. He was not armed, lawyers for his family said.
Meade has been with the Everett police since Jan. 20, 1998, and had never been involved in any other shootings or disciplinary action, said Kate Reardon, a spokeswoman for the city of Everett. Meade was placed on paid leave after the shooting, returned to work for a short time and is now on paid leave again.
Andy Hoyal, a Seattle attorney who is representing Louden and her family, said it wasn't until Monday that they learned the name of the officer who fired the fatal shots.
"We are pleased that the Snohomish County prosecutor has decided to do the right thing," Hoyal said. "This was an extremely egregious situation that had no justification at all."

"Superman is just a guy who is very young at this point, and he has big ideas about what is right and wrong," said Morrison. "And he has the power to implement those ideas."
Grant Morrison: That was actually the most fun of it, to try to make it seem as if we'd never, ever read a superhero story before. It was really difficult, because obviously everyone's really familiar with this stuff. I guess my idea was to just to treat it more like a science fiction story, which I like to do to get to the roots of these things. And to say, 'here's what it would be like if this guy just appeared in this world.'
There are differences. Metropolis is the 'City of Tomorrow' but it clearly is not our world. It's not New York or Marvel or any of those things. It's very much Metropolis and Gotham, and the DC Universe. The idea was to take the DC Universe and treat it almost as a science fiction playground, and this was the first time this had happened. And to show how it works in Metropolis, a city that has always tried to be the City of Tomorrow, but now it's 2011, or 2005 I guess, since these stories are taking place in the past. But it's slightly run down, you know? The machines don't work. The robot trains are kind of useless. There's graffiti everywhere. And it's kind of like the way New York was in the 1970's, before they cleaned up the place. So the Metropolis we're doing is a lot scarier, it's a lot more urban than I think we've ever seen it before. It's maybe a bit more like Gotham city, but it's not as dark and gothic. But in terms of crime, it's kind of like '70s New York.

I try to visit Fifteen every once in a while when I am in london. It has been my 4th time now, and I was actually a little disappointed. Me and my friend arrived there after a long day walking through London and therefore we decided not to especially dress up or anything to go there. We were really hungry and exhausted when we got there and just needed a proper meal.

The food is delectable. I especially loved the burrata, pork chop, and agnolotti with peas. Cocktails were very delicate.

The only complaint is with the service. It was inattentive. We waited a while for our...more
Great meal, friendly, fast and helpful service, very good quality food.

This chronological text, which covers all the major periods in music history, offers instructors and students particular help in developing listening skills in three ways: First, a free "Introduction to Listening" CD comes packaged with each student copy of the text. This CD plays all of the music discussed in the music fundamentals chapters of the text and provides an audio guide called "Instruments of the Orchestra." The guide presents the instruments and then tests students' ability to recognize them by themselves and in various combinations. Second, every chapter in Wright's text offers unique listening exercises. It is the only music appreciation book to have listening exercises built into and fully integrated with the text. Third, interactive listening guides and listening quizzes for all of the music in the text are available free via download from the Schirmer website. More than any other music appreciation text, LISTENING TO MUSIC challenges students to develop and refine their listening skills. Wright covers traditional Western music from medieval to modern, and integrates non-Western music throughout the text where appropriate, drawing comparisons between music of Western and other cultures. Concluding chapters discuss popular music and its impact on the world of music. Musical examples from each historical period are discussed within their social context, giving students a broad sense not only of a piece's composition, but also of its historical and cultural meaning.

With their various shapes and sizes, pots and pans can be difficult to organize. Getting your pots and pans organized will speed up cooking and keep your cabinets usable. This is a guide about organizing pots and pans.
After years of struggling with my pot lids, trying to find the correct one, I used an old office file rack to organize them. It's great! They don't get lost in my cavernous cabinet and I always find the correct lid easily now. Plus it sure looks better than what I used to do!
I hate looking for things in a crowded cupboard. I fought "lids" for years. One day, I put a drawer silverware holder in the cupboard and simply placed my griddles and lids sideways in the divisions and have had no problems with them sliding around since then.
To keep my lids to my pans organized, I purchased a wire dish drainer and placed it in the cupboard beside my pans. I slide the lids in the slots the same you would do for plates and I no longer waste time and cause a lot of racket looking for the right lid. If some lids are too thick to fit into a slot you can remove the wire that holds the lids/plates into place to make it wider.
By Tammy R.
I found an old ladder at an antique store for $5. I painted it and hung it from hooks on the ceiling in the kitchen. I purchased screw-in hooks and put them on the rungs of the ladder and on the outside to hang pots, pans, and other kitchen items. Very inexpensive pots and pans organizer with country charm.

Put bubble wrap between your pots and pans to protect them from scratching each other.
By Kadi from Weehawken, NJ
Would any of you happen to have some ideas on how to organize the pots and pans in my cabinets? The pots and pans just get thrown in the cabinet, where ever they can fit, and it is an absolute wreck down there! If anyone has some solutions or tips for my problem I'd really appreciate it!
Jordan from Arkansas
My Mom has heavy-duty hooks screwed into the upper window casement of the window above her sink. So her skillets now hang in the window, out of the way, using previously unused space. This frees up a lot of space in her cabinets and the skillets are easy to get to when she needs them.
I need help organizing my pots and pan lids. I bought a lid organizer from Target but some of the wires are too close together to fit the lids in. Do you have any suggestions? This site is very helpful.
I am by nature a very stingy (frugal if you will) person who would never spend a dime unless absolutely necessary. I keep lids, cookie sheets, a cutting board and a microwave bacon rack in an ancient dish drainer which is no longer needed for dishes. Silver racks from old dishwashers make good storage in the garage for small garden implements.
I like my pots and pans hanging so they aren't banging around, but I don't like looking at them. I also have a low budget. So I placed large cup hooks inside my cabinets. All my skillets, pots and pans hang in a nice neat row, easy to reach, but neatly hidden behind the closed door.
When trying to decide how to handle all the lids and bowls, pots and pans, always group by shapes. You will get more storage that way and a lot less hassle and mess.

ABB helps you to overcome these major challenges you face today.
Our approach covers the complete value-added chain, from your mine to the product you market.
ABB supplies mine electrification and automation solutions, such as substations, power distribution, modular electrical houses, ventilation on demand, electrical systems for mine trucks and instrumentation as well as various complete mine hoist systems, such as mechanical systems, hydraulic disc brake systems, electrical systems as well as state-of-the-art drive and control systems.
ABB's latest technology for mine hoist applications:
Large open-cast mining operations throughout the world have used ABB control and drive systems for decades. ABB is one of the leading suppliers for electrification, automation, control and drive systems for the full range of mining equipment.
This includes bucket–wheel and bucket–chain excavators, spreaders, stackers, reclaimers, crushers, shovels, draglines, belt–conveyor systems, belt wagons and stockpiles.
Our equipment has proven to withstand the extreme conditions of open-cast mining – with dust, severe vibrations and temperatures ranging from –50°C to +50°C – in over 1000 large mining machines during the past 50 years.
ABB's latest technology for material handling and mining equipment:
When it comes to driving grinding performance to higher levels, ABB offers a wide range of solutions: Gearless mill drives, ring–geared mill drives and drives for high pressure grinding rolls.
Gearless mill drives (GMD) for semiautogenous (SAG), ball and autogenous (AG) mills eliminate the typical mechanical components of the drive train (shaft, gearbox, pinion and ring gear). ABB delivered the first GMD ever in 1969, which is still in operation today. The upper limit of the power range today is about 35 MW. Some of the largest GMDs worldwide have been supplied by ABB: a 28 MW GMD for a 40' SAG mill and two 22 MW GMDs for 28' ball mills, to be installed at the highest altitude ever of 4600 meters above sea level. In addition, ABB has also delivered a 28 MW GMD for the world's first 42' SAG mill and is well positioned to continue the push for larger and more powerful mills.
With dual and single pinion drive systems ABB can offer an alternative for Gearless mill drives mill drives. In case of dual pinion solution, load sharing is handled very accurately within the frequency converter system.
ABB simplifies the twin-drive system for the high pressure grinding rolls (HPGR). Among the deliveries was one supplied for the world's largest HPGR installed in Australia, with a power rating of 2–2800 kW.
From agglomeration processes such as pelletizing, grinding and flotation or direct reduction (DRI / HBI) of iron ore to the SX-EW, smelting and refining processes of non-ferrous metals, ABB provides the following systems and solutions:
Our approach covers the complete value-added chain, from mine to market. ABB's capabilities combined with its global and local resources offer integrated power, control and information solutions to overcome challenges related to achieving energy efficiency, increasing productivity, health, safety and environment (HSE).
You specify the requirements just once and we take the responsibility for creating an integrated solution that works smoothly and efficiently
ABB's integrated solutions include:
To meet the challenges you face today you require equipment that operates efficiently and reliably - ideally without any effort on your part.
ABB helps you to focus on your everyday operations, while we concentrate on maintaining your equipment. We provide you with a comprehensive service portfolio covering all major processes from quarry to dispatch – to keep your production running.

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. — Trucks roared through downtown Klamath Falls for nearly an hour Monday in a rally in support of farmers and ranchers losing irrigation water as a drought tightens.
Sponsors said the rally was designed to draw attention to the impact of water shut-offs under way in the Upper Klamath Basin, where the Klamath Tribes have exercised newly affirmed water rights in the interest of conserving fish.
There were 225 vehicles in the convoy that went from the Klamath County Fairgrounds to downtown, organizer Eric Duarte said.
About 500 people on the sidewalks and steps in front of the courthouse and government center.
Duarte, a Beatty auctioneer and water user, told the Herald and News in advance of the rally that his water coming from the Sprague River was shut off last week, and he may have to sell yearlings before they reach full weight, salvaging as much of his remaining feed as he can for his cows and calves.
"We want to show a little awareness of what is going on in the Klamath Basin as far as agriculture," he said. "It does not have anything to do with the upper Basin or the tribe. It states an agricultural and economic impact awareness. It's a rally to show awareness in Klamath Basin about the only industry we have left."
The rally came a dozen years after tensions over a drought and water curtailments reached a peak. On July 1, 2001, the control mechanism known as the headgates to a major irrigation canal was opened illegally as protests over that year's restrictions intensified.

Obama unilaterally extends deadline to sign up for ObamaCARE
Obama has again decided to act on his own. He has unilaterally extended the deadline to sign up for ObamaCARE for six weeks. The deadline was set for February 15, 2014. It is now March 31, 2014. There used to be laws in this country that stated only Congress can make and change laws. That is why there were checks and balances put in place to stop dictator like presidents. I guess the Founding Fathers never imagined Barack Hussein Obama. From CBS/AP:
http://www.fireandreamitchell.com/2013/10/28/obama-unilaterally-extends-deadline-sign-obamacare/Obama unilaterally extends deadline to sign up for ObamaCAREObamaCAREObamaCARE
With website woes ongoing, the Obama administration Monday granted a six-week extension until March 31 for Americans to sign up for coverage next year and avoid new tax penalties under the president's health care overhaul law.
The move had been expected since White House spokesman Jay Carney promised quick action last week to resolve a "disconnect" in the implementation of the law.
It comes as technical problems continue to trouble the website designed as the main enrollment portal for people who don't get health care at work.
As a consequence, Republican lawmakers, and some Democrats as well, are calling for a one-year delay in the penalties most Americans will face starting next year if they remain uninsured. Monday's action by the administration stops well short of that, and amounts only to a limited adjustment.
Under the latest policy change, people who sign up by the end of open enrollment season on March 31 will not face a penalty. That means procrastinators get a grace period.

There is something odd going on when I try to upload a page. It seems I am allowed to place only a limited amount of text on a page. When I exceed the limit, the text is truncated after I hit 'Update'.
I use WordPress as a CMS mostly, and have uploaded 500+ pages so far to the database. These include pages with lots of text, and if I try to update those, the text is truncated as well.
After hitting 'Update', the status bar reads 'Uploading (93%)...' The percentage may vary, but it hangs at that point until I press Refresh.
Please note that I am not talking images or megabytes, but text, and bytes. And it's very strict with the amount of text that it accepts. One comma too many, and it is truncated.
Has anybody ever heard about such a thing before? What could it be?
Many thanks!
