We seem to be adding more and more wedged planes to the store, which of course means we're constantly setting the irons on the wedged planes. While in theory any handy hammer should do the trick, I have noticed that most of the people I know who regularly use a wedged plane or an infill seem to have a dedicated small hammer for this purpose. I'm basically pretty suspicious of special-purpose tools, so I looked at these plane-adjusting hammers with some misgivings. When I used them, however, I found that the hammer's light steel head will give you a distinct tap that makes it a lot easier to adjust the plane then my normal hammer choice (whatever is closest). I am a convert! In my shop, I adjust planes on a regular basis, but in the showroom it is something that happens a dozen times a day. For those worried about the steel, the hammers are very light and the steel delivers a delicate tap which means you use a lot less force than you would with either a wood or brass mallet. With their typical attention to detail, Glen-Drake has ergonomically designed the handles (both right and left-handed) so that you will automatically hold the hammer in the correct orientation. On one side of the hammer is of course the head; the other side is ground to a proper screwdriver for the cap iron, or for the fence adjusting screws on filletster and other specialty planes. Three weights are available, which the maker has sized according to plane length. Right now I am playing with the two lightest ones with the lightest being my current favorite. The left-handed version of one of them will definitely find a permanent home in my shop. Overall handle length is listed above. Made in USA.

You brought up Hampton... Bring back negative rep!
Seriously though, good work CW, on all of this.
We should all get to kick CW for bring up my birthday in 2001. Worst birthday in history.
Our best days will be ahead.
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
Great blog and thanks for all of your hard work CW you have put into cyclone fanatics. This site has truly become the one stop shop for Iowa State athletics. I remember thinking during the Nebraska game last year that there was no way that Iowa State was going to win that game because of there terrible luck, but the ball literally did came our way eight times that day. It was unbelievable. Maybe the winds of these Cyclones are a changin' for the better. Regardless, I'm still proud to be a Cyclone.
Actually, I really didn't read it through the first time.
After reading this again Chris, I think your a little off here.
Paul Clark had a great piece tonight. I suggest everyone take a look.
Iowa State was NEVER going to Conference USA, or the WAC, or ANY conference that was non-BCS. If you really thought they would, then you either A) really need to cure your case of "God is against us/woe is me Cyclone fan/everything bad always happens to Iowa State" itis (which I admittedly need prescription medicine for at times), or B) you were too focused on "opinions" and speculation getting thrown out from people that literally didn't matter. (I like Paul's phrase "reckless speculation and projections by the media")
Today was not going to be armageddon for Iowa State athletics, and I am truly confident that if you have a personal, sit down, truthful conversation with Jamie, he'll tell you the same thing.
Now don't get me wrong, we might have been relegated to the MWC and had significantly reduced revenue, which would have sucked, but we weren't going any lower than that.
With that said Chris, great job keeping us updated with what you were hearing on the situation. We all appreciate what you are doing here at CF. Glad you get be a part of CF while we are in the Big 12 and not the MWC :)

ANF - America Needs Farmers - Thank God Iowa State produces-educates-supports them!
Most people forget that March 25, 2000 was not just the day one of ISU's best ever MBB teams lost in heartbreaking fashion. It was also the day ISU's best ever WBB team lost in heartbreaking fashion.
2 seed ISU lost by one point to 3 seed Penn State on a PSU putback with maybe 5 seconds left and a missed Megan Taylor jumper at the buzzer. Two days later, PSU beat up on a massively overrated 1 seed LA Tech to make the Final Four, and I'm confident ISU would have done the same. We were a few bounces from having BOTH ISU BB teams in the Final Four.
My wife (fiancee at the time) and I were two of a few thousand people who went to an ISU WBB pregame rally that day and watched the MBB game which was broadcast on some large projection screens. After that loss, we walked over to Municipal to watch the WBB team lose.
That drive home sucked.
Great article. I was pretty scared about what could happen. I had a hard timing thinking about Iowa State in a different conference.

It just seems like to me that the black cloud has lifted. It used to be that everything bad that could happen to ISU did. Go up on KSU 28-7 at half, lose 35-31. Chance to win the North against average Mizzou and KU teams? Lose both in OT. We have a chance to win in Lincoln in OT and Nick Leaders drops a sure int that would have ended it. NU scores shortly after to win. Iowa gets Alford to skate out of town ahead of the posse and we end up paying WM millions of dollars to leave. GMac endures endless injuries and departures to take once promising teams to sub-.500 records.
Now, we have Auburn PAY us to take away a bad coach. We have Creighton do the same in MBB. ISU gets 8 turnovers to win in Lincoln. And, on the brink of destruction, the Big 12 comes together and every school more than doubles their TV revenue. Things are turning and it's going to be a fun decade.
Awesome work Chris! In a word... Awesome!
You spoke highly not only of a program, but the people surrounding that program, in the past and present. And when you spoke about the future... there's only one more word I would've added. Unless I missed it, that word is "opportunity" as in, the opportunity to do it again. The beauty of that word is that it is in the future, and it is there, and the moments that surround that word will come!!!
As ever, GO CYCLONES!!!
Maybe the tides are turning, maybe we have another slug to the midsection coming; I don't know. We are Iowa State. But today didn't suck.
Pereant osores!
Chris - great article, great coverage these past couple weeks & great work on making CF the first & only stop for all things State Athletics! I hope the owners realize what a tremendous asset you are to not only CF but to the Iowa State community in general....good on ya, boy!
The funny thing is, this deal probably gives ISU a better chance to compete with the big boys. Hear me out......if my math is correct, by percentages, ISU's budget is going to increase somewhere in the neighborhood of 33%, while the Texas budget will increase around 20%.
And really, at a certain point, what are you going to do with all that money at Texas, plate your helmets in 24K gold? At ISU, that extra 33% will go towards some things that are really needed. At Texas, it's just more money in the vault.
Good article, Chris. This is absolutely huge for Iowa State.

A blog (from "web blog") is a discussion or informational site consisting of discrete entries ("posts") typically displayed newest first. All Corrente posts are front-paged; there is no up-rate or down-rate process. Corrente posts are almost entirely community moderated. We encourage a clash of ideas, and do not encourage a clash of persons.

Un-fuckin-believable. No, cancel that. Standard operating procedure*. Read it and scream:
The Army Corps of Engineers, rushing to meet President Bush's promise to protect New Orleans by the start of the 2006 hurricane season, installed defective flood-control pumps last year despite warnings from its own expert that the equipment would fail during a storm, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press.
The 2006 hurricane season turned out to be mild, and the new pumps were never pressed into action. But the Corps and [MWI,] the politically connected manufacturer of the equipment are still struggling to get the 34 heavy-duty pumps working properly.
The pumps are now being pulled out and overhauled because of excessive vibration, Corps officials said. Other problems have included overheated engines, broken hoses and blown gaskets, according to the documents obtained by the AP.
And guess what the political connection was?
MWI is owned by J. David Eller and his sons. Eller was once a business partner of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush in a venture called Bush-El that marketed MWI pumps. And Eller has donated about $128,000 to politicians, the vast majority of it to the Republican Party, since 1996, according to the Center for Responsive Politics.
MWI has run into trouble before. The U.S. Justice Department sued the company in 2002, accusing it of fraudulently helping Nigeria obtain $74 million in taxpayer-backed loans for overpriced and unnecessary water-pump equipment. The case has yet to be resolved. [Details here]
Sued for fraud? To a Republican, that's a qualification!
It's enough to make you think that, well, there's some sort of Plan to take out a Blue city that used to be full of black people, isn't it?
* Conservative governance = no planning + privatization + insider looting = disaster
and stuff.
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans
And miss it each night and day
I know I'm not wrong... this feelings gettin stronger
The longer I stay away...
Juicy details here. And the Nigerian take. I have to go to sleep, alas....
No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.
use a private contractor to do shitty work that will have to be revamped later at twice the cost. more profit for the contractor, more donations for the GOP, and best of all: more dead brown people!
what's wrong with you, lb? it's clearly a win-win.
You left out step 3 of the autocoprophagy: blame a Democrat.
But I still believe
And I will rise up with fists!!
I have (here) "disaster to the degree of a acute clusterfuck" as the right hand side.
But the operational test of what's "acute" is: Plenty of dead brown people! Brilliant, CD. Thanks.
NOTE I am kind of "ha ha only serious" about that equation. It has predictive value. I gave several examples in the original post, and voila, here's a new one that conforms perfectly to the model.
No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.
It's in the Dem controlled city they're using defective pumps, you're pro'ly right that later they're planning to blame Dems for the problems. And in MS the casinos are prioritized for rebuilding efforts. Your gov't at work.Ruth
If you were a Coast resident perhaps you'd know how the casino industry revitalized the whole area, provided good paying jobs to many thousands of residents, pumped tax dollars into infrastructure and beautification, and fueled development. If you lived here, perhaps you'd know how casinos lifted so many people out of poverty, people of every race, men and women, young and old, and gave them a solid income. If you lived here, perhaps you'd know how the tourism brought in by the casino industry has benefited the entire economy, or how the money brought in by all those good paying jobs has done the same. Perhaps if you'd been poor, like I was, and gotten one of those good paying jobs and then seen it washed away, and went right back to struggling until that casino could rebuild and call you back to work, maybe you'd be glad they're getting the priority they need to get back to operational status.
Those casinos are anchor properties, and are engines that move the whole economy. They aren't just corporate boondoggles for moneyed interests, they're of benefit to many thousands of employees whose livelihood depends on them. These are jobs that pay a living wage with real benefits, and they take care of their people.
There are lots of ways the government is screwing the little guy and benefiting rich interests at the expense of everyone else. Helping the casinos --each of which employs close to two thousand people at decent wages and good benefits-- get back up and running so those jobs come back is not one of them.
I picked up THIS link at Crooks. Why don't I just save a click and come here first? Duh.
Blue Gal
Anyone who is liberal or progressive, but who has family or friends in N.O. who are entrenched conservatives, knows that, just like everywhere else in the Fox-Belt of the USA, there is no correlation between adoration for Bush and education level. One brother? President of a regional bank in NO. Another? Personal injury litigator for Chevron Oil -- mitigating culpability for Chevron when an oil rig explodes and people sue... Sisters? Worldy, post grad degrees, cultured with jaunts to Europe since high school.
Every single one of them -- very well educated... yet they gravitate like moonbeams to All Things Fox and Bush. One line particularly stands out, when litigator brother had evacuated with family to Florida Gulf Coast vacation spot, and oh the troubles they endured for those 2 months or so of sun and sand and watching Fox News "cover" the state of the city... mind you, the worst thing that happened to their home in uptown New orleans was a 2nd story glass window blew out, and water entered a room of the house:
But when they heard from Fox that looters had taken to the streets in N.O., they were PISSSSSED -- and wondering when the authorities were going to crack down and end that shit right away -- afterall, their property and belongings were at stake... It was in this moment that my bro writes me email with the equivalent of yelling:
"Where the fuck is the National Guard!!??" -- and he immediately follows with "Yeah, I know. You'll say 'they're in Iraq' but this is where they are needed in time of emergency"
Of course he and "the Others" were ecstatic when Fox News showed National Guard arriving and then patroling the streets with tanks and shit. No way those fucking niggas were going to mess with THEIR homes!
Oh! But when they return to N.O., litigator brother -- good Catholic that he is -- works with a charity outreach group called "Common Ground" -- and trumpets his great work wokring with "The Community" -- code for "the niggas" -- trying to find "Commom Ground" on a redevlopment plan for the city.
Of course any developlment plan that meant retention of Negroes in 9th Ward, well this was ridiculous, as Dennis Hastert told them, "rebuilding that area is a huge waste of taxpayer money"...
So the planet spins about 700 times and to this day they continue with the Fox-delivered meme that was conjured up by think tanks: "People just hate Bush. It's all perosnal. Nothing he does will ever be rigfht with them".
So -- with this latest bullshit news -- I can only imagine the emails that will probably circulate to the Inner Channels: Prob something like: "The pumps were fine; the problem was they hired a bunch of niggas to do the work"
This is the mentality. And I write this with my own sad lament that for over a decade I have tried everything -- all the phases everyone else has gone through, from the eraly "logic and fact" dyas thru the Lakoffian "identify with their values as progressive values" approach -- from slamming them about their extreme ignorance and unAmerican behavior, to ignoring them, to peacemaking, to -- oh I don't even know. Point is, as Lakoff told me himself in 03 "that sector, you cannot reach at all... It's not even worth trying."
I will not be sending this AP article to them, for this is only seen as an act of aggression and Bush-hating. But I am saddened that such a class of people actually believe they are good hearted and Christian -- and if only the rest of the coiuntry and world understood that THEY're not anti-black -- but if only you could live in our shoes for a year, you'd see what it's like living amongst the uneductaed nigs.
All I can think of is one of Paul Shrader's most potent lines written for Robert Deniro in Taxi Driver: "Some day a real rain will come and wash all the scum off the sidewalk" ...
... that would be the white-bread upper crusts. "Good People" with Christian values, and scum too.
God, it hurts sometimes, (for me at least), to see people that I used to respect and admire being their true selves. I feel so isolated at times, my friends think I think too much, "why do you care?", they ask, "what are you going to do about the things YOU think are so conspiratorial?" I answer back, (wondering the same things over and over again in my head as I read the incredible tale of the dismantling of the country I thought I grew up in), that I would like to drop my entire life, job, home, family, "friends", just chuck it all and start walking to Washington. I live in AZ but I do so enjoy walking. As hard as I have worked for the little I have, I look at the things that give me material comfort and I get a little sick. The ultimate realization that any living creature can endure is to find oneself apart and alone, to find that the principals that one was probably raised here in the U.S. with, i.e., the bible, the constitution, "WE THE PEOPLE"-and all that, are just real good ideas, by men, search a paragraph or two below "All men are created equal" to find the term "other peoples", I guess that the slaves were not men, not even to our vaunted founding fathers. The poor in this nation are the slaves of today, black, white, hispanic, it matters not--as well it shouldn't really. But the poor are the "other peoples" that the founding fathers set up to be less than those deemed by the society of the period as less than human, thusly undeserving of human rights. I guess that humanity has come as far as it will go. The phrase "I'm only human" either doesn't apply, or has become an accepted excuse for mistakes one makes. I think that it is time to start thinking of being more than human. Of being more than the accepted goodness that human ideas tend to falsely portray. Of being better than the bullshit that the bible says, (really, alot of it is bullshit-a mechanism of control of the masses, by few). I think I sound crazy myself. Anyways, I guess I don't know what I will do. I hope to find others like myself, people that are learning the lessons that all the rest of mankind seemingly is unable to grasp: What we have been told is all a lie, God is real he is within all of us. There must be a striking of balance. A greater good must spring forth from the learned perception of goodness that is getting us nowhere. WE HAVE NOT STEPPED ONE FOOT FORWARD SINCE THE DEATH OF CHRIST-lo some 2000 years ago. I guess the biggest fear I have in my life, (mostly for my children and grandkids), is that nothing will ever change. Sorry if I seem like an idiot, it should make me fit right in though huh?
claims. last time i checked, states hit by katrina weren't doing so well in categories like the health of their children, education, the divide between rich and poor...so forgive me if i need to see some numbers supporting your assertion of the miracle of casinos.
The jobs they produce are pennies from heaven, eh?
But they do take care of our betters.
Because nothing is produced there!
Casinos are a lot like oil refineries, except people and their money are what are sucked through the cracking towers.
The profits go into the same pockets, of course.
No authoritarians were tortured in the writing of this post.
Why no comment about the connection between Dianne Feinstein's husband (board member of URS) and obtaining the contract to write the specifications of the pumps? Didn't she finally remove herself from the Senate committee that awarded military contruction contracts within the last year for this very same conflict of interest that had been going on for years. It ain't a Bush thing afterall.

Takahiro Sonoda, one of Japan's leading pianists, died of a ruptured aorta at his home in Tokyo on Thursday. He was 76.
Sonoda's musical education began at a young age with lessons from his father, a music teacher, before starting piano studies with Leo Shirota at age 6.
Sonoda graduated from Tokyo Music School, the precursor of the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music.
In 1954, he performed under the baton of Herbert von Karajan with the NHK Symphony Orchestra. The following year, he debuted as a soloist with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra and went on to perform with a number of renowned conductors.
Some of the prestigious awards he received include the Japan Record Academy Award for his recording of Beethoven's "Hammerklavier Sonata" in 1996 and the Suntory Music Award in 1997.

"Cape Race, Newfoundland" Cape Race by crummey
Cape Race Travel Guide: 2 reviews and 38 photos
Cape Race is an excellent place to go on a fine day. You can watch wildlife like caribou, white foxes and arctic owls. You can explore the barrenlands, You can explore Chance Cove, Drook Beach etc.
Cape Race is a wonderul place on a fine day. But Lord help you on a foul day.
There is a lighthouse at Cape Race, which is famous for receiving S.S. Titanic's S.O.S signal. Titanic's distress signal was first-received at Cape Race and transmitted to the rest of the world from there.
Cape Race Lighthouse is remote. It is accessed by a poorly-maintained gravel road that snakes twenty kilometers ar\cross the barrenlands.
Cape Race Lighthouse set on a jutting point surrounded by one hundred foot cliffs.
Cape race averages 158 fog-bound days per year. Its such a barren place that if a tree ever appeared the lighthouse eeper would shoot it!!!!
You'll enjoy Cape Race. If you are lucky the light keeper will be glad to show you the tower, and even offer you a cup of coffee.
Cape Race is Newfoundland's most southerasterly tip.
The location made Cape Race a natural congregating point from early seafarers.
Cape Race was the destination of many early whalers. Basques and Portuguese mariners established whaling stations at nearby places like Trepassey, Placentia Bay and Spear Island.
Cape Race was considered such a prime local that Sir William Vaughan established the Colony of Cambriol Colchus at nearby Trepassey in the 1620's.
In 1665, Holland's Admiral de Rutyer's rendevouzed off Cape Race before proceeding to sack St. John's.
In 1696, a St. Malo Corsair named Commodore du Docher destroyed the fishing stations of Trepassey Bay and supervised the expulsion of fishermen from the outports around Cape Race.
In 1720, Black Bart attacked a French fishing fleet near Cape Race; he captured a merchant ship, renaming it Royal Fortune and it became the flag-ship of his pirate navy.
There are lots of fabulous things to see around Cape Race, including The Drook and other small smugglers coves, but the roads are dirt and you should start early because you do not want to be caught on that windswept peninsula after dark unless you are prepared.
- Pros:It is on the edge of the wild, North Atlantic and all that entails
- Cons:It is on the edge of the wild, North Atlantic and all that entails
- In a nutshell:It will take the whole day. Dress Warm.

What is the time limit before they disappear? 15 days? Maybe we could start a data base of uncommon but sought after items, what they went for and when? Then future c&v'rs could search to get some idea of "value". Bikes such as paramounts come and go on ebay often enough to search there, but other items such as certain tools or makers (ritchey, etc.) rarely come up. For example these 2 VAR tools just sold:
"VAR 30 BICYCLE BOTTOM BRACKET FIXED CUP TOOL & 30/1 JAW" sold for $122.50 on 8/7/2010.
"Vintage VAR Depose Bike Brake Caliper Third Hand Tool" sold for $16.50 on 8/8/2010.
thoughts, or is this something already searchable?

From the founding of Jamestown to the time of Washington and Jefferson, every plantation owner made cider, drank cider, and bragged about his cider.
Geneva Crab
GENEVA CRAB is a very large and pinkish, red-fleshed crab. Its very acidic juice makes it an excellent addition to cider blends. Ripens late August to early September, here. Flowers are large and intensely pink. Leaves are dark maroon-red. Will not pollinate other varieites.
Ripening Period
- Late Summer - August
- Early Fall - September

***A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect until 7 p.m. today for the threat of severe thunderstorms carrying damaging winds, heavy rainfall, lightning, and perhaps hail too.
July is truly beginning summer-like with hot temperatures, high humidity, and a threat of severe thunderstorms.
Once again Wednesday the biggest weather threats will be the hot weather and severe thunderstorms. It will, once again, end up being one of the hottest days of the calendar year so far with afternoon temperatures topping out near 90 degrees. The range of high temperatures will be 85-92 degrees, coupled with the humidity it will feel like the mid 90s with the heat index!
As a reminder when it becomes this hot, wear light and loose fitting clothing, drink plenty of (healthy) liquids, stay shaded, use sunscreen, and use good judgment. If you have to be outside take breaks at all times possible!
Severe thunderstorms are also a possibility. Any storms that pop up will have the potential for damaging wind gusts, driving rains, hail, and frequent lightning. Keep an ear out for any weather alerts and stay up to date with the latest forecast at www.mychamplainvalley.com/weather.
Regarding the July 3-6 Thursday to Sunday, on/off showers and downpours will still be around Thursday and Thursday night, then clearing toward morning Independence Day and giving way to a nice Friday night, Saturday, and Sunday.

"Always take a walk" Top 5 Page for this destination Beynac-et-Cazenac Things to Do Tip by Beausoleil
Beynac-et-Cazenac Things to Do: 15 reviews and 56 photos
Beynac et Cazenac is built up the side of a cliff and is on two levels. The castle is at the top (of course; castles always are) and there is a small piece of town outside the castle. The larger part of town is down along the river and you can walk along the river or take a gabare ride on the river, but the most fun is climbing the steps or going up the steep walkways and enjoying the town growing up the cliff.
Click on the photo to view pictures of both upper and lower villages.

"Land of Chianti" Gaiole in Chianti by B924576
Gaiole in Chianti Travel Guide: 5 reviews and 3 photos
In Italian, Castello means castle. That is where we stayed for a week. The Castello di Brolio is owned by the Ricasoli family, who have owned it since the 15th century or so.
The location is beautiful, in the hills of Tuscany, in the village of Gaioli in Chianti. The castle is stunning. Within the wall there is also a chapel and a keep. The views to the south are spectacular. The Ricasoli family still stay there during the warmer months. They rent portions of the castle to visitors. These portions are arranged as adjustable apartments, depending on the size of the party.
It is like living in a museum. While we were there we met and visited with the Baron and Baroness Ricasoli. Very gracious people. They gave us a little tour of their quarters.
The estate contains extensive vineyards that produce some of the best Chianti Classico I have tried. The premier issue is named after the castle. They also have a small grove of olive trees from which they produce oil.

American Idol
Video: Lauren Alaina Sings "The Climb" by Miley Cyrus on April 13
Oh no she didn't! Personally, we don't think Hannah Montana even counts as a movie. Nonetheless, Lauren Alaina sings Miley Cyrus' "The Climb" and attempts to "invite" Pia Toscano fans into voting for her. Jennifer loved the "tear" in her voice (whatever that means); Randy thought she put on an amazing performance; and Steven said she moved him "beyond tears."
WATCH Lauren Alaina perform "Natural Woman" from last week's episode.

Anyone know of one where the rack is not clamped to the seatpost on Montague's?
Anyone know of one where the rack is not clamped to the seatpost on Montague's?
Do you absolutely NOT want one on the seat post at all?
I have a Pletscher system - http://www.bikemania.biz/Pletscher_A...cher_50290.htm - which DOES go to the seat post BUT it is primarily supported by the quick release system down to the wheels.
I had to get special brackets from the Pletscher folks USA distributor in IL to go around my disc brakes on the montague..
Drag the Bike By the LBS and see what fits..
Yes, I don't want one that I have to mount on the seat post. I plan to put a toddler's seat there and most racks of this kind can only carry up to 20 lbs. I like that Pletscher system. How did you attach the forward bracket to the low rack/fender hole of the Montague? Would it be sturdy enough for a rear child seat?
some of the Kid seats incorporate their own support frame.
this one Includes the Blackburn CSR-1 Rack..
but if you buy them thru the LBS they will help you install it .
Perhaps the mounting fabrication is needing some ingenuity..

Yes, I think going to the LBS is the ticket. Thanks!

The Decline of the U.S. Rust Belt: A Macroeconomic Analysis
Some regions of the United States fared much worse than others since the end of WWII. In this paper we document that those regions faring worst in terms of wage and employment growth from 1950-2000 tended to be those in which workers earned the largest wage premiums in 1950. We use this evidence to develop a theory of the decline of the ``Rust Belt'' region, which was highly unionized and paid workers substantially more than other workers of similar skill levels. We develop our theory in a two-region, open-economy version of the Neoclassical Growth model, which we parameterize to match key features of regional and aggregate data. We then use the model to ask how much differently the Rust Belt would have fared if its labor market had not been as distorted.

text: 000 FXUS65 KBOU 242041 AFDBOU Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Denver/Boulder CO 241 PM MDT TUE MAY 24 2016 .SHORT TERM...(This evening through Wednesday) Issued at 240 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 As a shortwave moves overhead, several storms have formed in the moist airmass as CAPE values are between 1500 and 2000 J/kg and good shear. Dewpoints near the urban corridor are in the mid to upper 40s with higher dewpoints to the east. These storms have already produced hail stones up to golfball size, this will continue with even larger hail possible through the afternoon and early evening. The southeasterly surface winds veer to the southwest with height providing good shear for storm growth. Surface boundaries may take advantage of the shear and produce a few tornadoes this afternoon and evening. The current Tornado Watch goes until 8pm. Hi- res models continue to show the best chance for strong storms mainly from Denver County then to the north and east. Models continue to show drier dewpoints pushing up from the south, which values are in the mid 30s south of Palmer Divide. This may provide additional focus for storms. Storm activity will be pushing northeast out over the plains and likely be done by 5 pm over the metro areas then last over the far northeastern corner through 9 pm. Though some models keep storms forming over the far corner past midnight, have kept a slight chance of storms out there. Otherwise, skies will be clearing tonight over the area which may allow some patchy fog to develop, most likely along the South Platte River valley. A shortwave ridge will push overhead tomorrow over the area to bring warmer and drier weather. Only a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms are expected over the mountains and the far northern plains near the state border. Highs tomorrow will be a few degrees warmer over the plains, but a few degrees cooler over the mountains where cooler air will be dropping down from an upper low over the Great Basin. .LONG TERM...(Wednesday night through Tuesday) Issued at 240 PM MDT Tue May 24 2016 The next weather system in this unsettled weather pattern will begin to impact the area Thursday. Large scale lift will increase through the day. At the same time, low level moisture is expected to increase with persistent easterly flow with a theta-e ridge developing over northeast Colorado. Not exactly sure how much surface heating will occur with the large scale lift, but still enough instability near 1000 J/Kg to produce a threat of severe weather, including hail and a tornado or two depending on where low level boundaries set up. The precipitation is expected to transition to more widespread rain showers/embedded thunderstorm event Thursday night into at least Friday morning with persistent large scale lift and Q-G ascent. Will increase PoPs into the likely category for most of this period from the foothills east onto the plains. Widespread 1 inch rainfall amounts a good bet during this period but no significant hydrology issues expected at this time. Drier weather will then work in for Friday night into most of Saturday with weak subsidence. Can`t rule out an isolated storm drifting out of the mountains late in the day or evening, but overall looks like a pretty dry and mild Saturday shaping up. Sunday looks mild as well with southwest flow aloft. Enough heating and moisture to support a few more afternoon showers and storms, but coverage still limited. By Monday and Tuesday, upper level support and moisture is expected to increase again with another weak wave noted. That should support a better chance of showers and thunderstorms. && .AVIATION...(For the 18Z TAFS through 18Z Wednesday afternoon) Issued at 240 MDT Tue May 24 2016 VFR conditions expected through Wednesday. A line of scattered thunderstorms from Fort Collins down to KDEN will continue to push northeast.

Celebrity 100 Rank: No. 21Home: Malibu Colony Road, Malibu, Calif.List Price: $18.9 millionListed With: Arete EstatesAfter attempting to rent out his Malibu beach house for $75,000 a month, the actor listed it for $23 million in November. Nestled in celeb-centric Malibu Colony, the postage-sized property is one of two beach houses the 'Great Gatsby' star owns in Malibu. He has additional homes on both coasts, including a compound in the Hollywood Hills that's comprised of two adjoining land parcels (one purchased from Madonna ) and a penthouse in New York City's Battery Park City neighborhood in eco-chic Riverhouse, a building that pumps twice-filtered air into the condo units and is home to other celebrities like Tyra Banks, as well.

On tonight's Countdown With Keith Olbermann on MSNBC (Monday, February 13, 2006), Washington Post reporter Dana Milbank appeared for an interview wearing a bright-orange hunter's vest and hat. Michelle Malkin has the photo and video.

How on earth is anyone supposed to believe that the Washington Post can maintain any objectivity on the Cheney hunting story when one of their most veteran and prominent reporters shows up for an interview dressed like this?

Think back to 1998. Imagine a female newspaper reporter (not an opinion columnist, but a reporter, mind you) showing up for a television interview dressed in a beret and looking like Monica Lewinsky. Or a male columnist wearing a Clinton wig and holding a cigar. It never would have happened, because these people would have lost their jobs. Their employer's credibility would have been shot.

What is going on? It appears Milbank wasn't even trying to hide his bias.

HT: Michelle Malkin.

Waxahatchee: The Soviettes completely changed the route I took in life
Waxahatchee and her human companion.
While she's only been using the moniker of Waxahatchee since 2011, Katie Crutchfield's roots in the punk and DIY community run as deep as the Alabama watering hole she draws her name from. Cutting her teeth on the touring circuit before she was even 18 in the Ackleys with her sister Allison, the duo reformed as P.S. Eliot and garnered cult acclaim for their two albums of spiky, defiant punk. After 4 years, Katie and Alison parted ways, with one twin continuing on the loud-fast trajectory in the group Swearin' and the other switching to a more plaintive, folky acoustic sound.
Waxahatchee's most new album, Cerulean Salt, continues on the heart-bearing honesty and austere melodies of her well-loved debut American Weekend but updates the delivery with additional instruments to support Katie's singular vocals. Arriving in town with labelmates Screaming Females and Tenement for label Don Giovanni's 10-year anniversary tour, Waxhatchee will be performing at the Triple Rock for her first time on Tuesday.
Gimmie Noise: A while back you wrote this awesome piece for the International Girl Gang Underground zine about how our local heroes in the Soviettes changed your life. Have you connected with them since you wrote that?
Katie Crutchfield: I have! Just with Annie [Sparrows], the lead singer, and I've actually seen Sturgeon's other band Gateway District in Chatanooga maybe like a year or two ago. I had no idea, I was just visiting my sister who used to live there, and we were at this show and I saw them. They were really good! But the Soviettes, I talked to Annie, I kinda just like mustered the courage one day to get in touch. We have some mutual friends, and so I was like, "Hey, I hope this isn't weird, but I wrote this thing..." I had a friend of mine tell me that Annie had seen it and thought it was cool, so I decided to touch base with her and she was super sweet. She told me, "Anytime you're in Minneapolis, let me know!" I actually probably should tell her that I'm coming!
Do those records still resonate with you the way they did back in back then?
Yeah, absolutely. I think the thing about them that really changed me was seeing them play, because I hadn't heard them before I saw them. At that time in my life I was so obsessed with bands like Rilo Kiley, and they're still one of my favorites, still love them a lot. But you know, you see their show and they're up on a stage, and Jenny Lewis is like...perfectly dressed and they sound absolutely crystal clear and great. Then I saw the Soviettes at Cave 9, which was this punk show space that I used to hang out at and play at all the time, and they were playing on the floor!
They had like, old, shitty looking Fender guitars and they were drinking beer and wearing denim vests, and they were a punk band. It was the first time that I had seen women like them, and I think that completely changed the route that I took in life. I was already really active in that scene, but there weren't that many women in Birmingham doing stuff, at least not in the part of the scene that I was a part of. After seeing The Soviettes, that's when we started P.S. Elliot, and we kind of idolized them. I'm kind of surprised that the aren't more popular, the music that they made became kind of cool, that style of fast, punk-influenced garage rock became so huge.
Like The Soviettes, you have this deep background in the DIY Punk circuit, how did you start your connection with the Twin Cities scene up here?
I really like going there, and I've played there a couple of times with Waxahatchee, but it's always been kind of last-minute because I don't have a ton of friends that live there. I think the reason is, it's just far enough west that it's kind of hard to get to if you're doing a short tour, like I usually don't go further than Miliwaukee. It's a drag , because I do like it a lot, but it's just far enough away that it's hard to get to. So I'm thrilled to have it included on this tour, it's as far west as we'll be going. I've never played the Triple Rock but I've always wanted to. I'm also coming back there in November, not to play a show, per-se, but I'm doing the Wits Podcast. I'm going to be there November 7 for that too, which is exciting. It's funny, I'm coming for 24 hours a few days after I come home from Europe, so I'm going to be completely out of my mind.
Has the hustle changed significantly since you started working with Don Giovanni for American Weekend? What's your partnership with them been like? How does it feel to be part of their 10th anniversary tour?
It's been cool. When I did American Weekend I was originally going to release it on Salinas [Records], they're great friends of mine and I had done all of my records with them prior. Joe [Steinhardt, Don Giovanni owner] had expressed interest, and I ultimately decided that I wanted to do something different and basically I wanted it to be like a divorce from P.S. Elliot, a different route. Not that more of the same would have been bad, P.S. Elliot, those are the best years of my life, but I wanted a change so I took a chance, and it's been cool. Joe's a great friend and they put out really great records. Before it became what it is now, where they release records from bands from all over, he put out records for only New Brunswick, Jersey bands. It was cool, it was this archive of music that happened there, and a lot of really great music happened there. I always admired that a lot.
Your new record, Cerulean Salt, actually reminds me a lot of Screaming Females' Ugly, not necessarily sonically, but because both records show y'all expanding your sound-and-songwriting palate and embracing some slightly cleaner production.
It's funny, I recorded my record in my shitty basement and they recorded theirs with Steve Albini, so I think they're definitely different sonically [laughs]. But I see that, and their songwriting process, I can't imagine what it must be like. I think Marissa takes the lead, but it's so collaborative, and I've just never been great at doing that. Even with P.S. Elliot, for example, I always just wrote the whole song and brought it to practice. I'm just a little bit of a control freak when it comes to that. With Waxahatchee, I need to have control over one creative project, and I think Screaming Females are so much more loose with it, which is cool, it's obviously working for them.
Like Marissa, I think you really struck a nice balance between the vulnerability and melancholic aspects of your writing with these really bright, clear, resonant melodies. Was that a cognizant thing?
I don't know...she and I were supposed to make music together at some point but we've just never had the time. We've started this long-distance writing thing, and we have like two songs I think, but we've never finished it. I hope some day we get to work on it.
Your lyrics on Weekend tend to be relationship-focused, where as the lyrics on Cerulean seem to focus more on your family and upbringing. What draws you to write about this kind of directly emotional subjects?
I think that with American Weekend I kind of found this sweet spot in my lyrical writing, I struck a chord with myself, and it just felt like it was working to come from that place, and to make things really literal, and everything really true to how I was feeling without being overly emotional on the page, I guess. So the delivery is sort of dry and deliberate, but the content for me is rather emotional and personal, and that kind of seemed to work in this way that I felt really good about.
So I tried to do it again with Cerulean Salt, and it was the exact same thing but with different subject matter. I had pretty much only written about relationship stuff before this record and I wanted to just do something different. I'm not in a sour relationship situation right now, so I wouldn't want to lie about that, not for this project anyway, I want to be true to what the content's going to be. So I had the plans to make it more nostalgic, and not necessarily about my family, because my family is great and my childhood was great, but nostalgic in other ways.
What made you decided to add more electric guitar, bass and drums to this record? Are you still playing all the instruments?
Nope, I'm not. It's mostly Kyle Gilbride, who is my sister's boyfriend, who's in Swearin' with her, and Keith Spencer, my boyfriend, so it's the three of them plus this guy Jeff Bolt, and we're so interchangeable at this point. So Kyle engineered the record, and he played a lot of stuff on it. Keyboards, guitar, bass, and Keith played drums and a lot of bass and guitar also. I played guitar and bass on it. My sister, I think played percussion on one song and she sings on one song, but it was just sort of whoever was around at my house at the time like, "Hey, do you want to play bass on this one?" That's probably how it will be in the future too, I really got attached to that process.
You seem to be mostly sticking to bars and music venues on this tour. As someone who grew up in all-ages punk shows, is that exciting or something you're just living with?
Of course I miss it, it's my total bread and butter, it's what I always did. It's funny, I saw Swearin' play a house show the other day, and I told them, "God, you guys just always sound so much better in a basement." I didn't wanna bum everyone out, but it just sounded so much better down there to me, and maybe that's just because it's how I'm used to hearing them.
But I go back to it. I still play houses sometimes, I always prefer to, but it's gotten to a point with reach where it's not accessible to everyone that would want to see me play. I'm actually playing a show today out on Long Island that's at a new DIY all-ages space called No Fun Club. It's kind of weird to think that I haven't played that many DIY spaces recently, because that's always where I played growing up. It's kind of weird, but it's working out. I understand that this record just reached more people, and I'm not sure it'd be cool for me to not play places where everyone can come to. I'm playing the Bowery Ballroom because everyone who would want to see me play can find the Bowery Ballroom. If I played at some house in Brookyln, maybe all of my friends would know where it was, but not everybody else. So I'm trying to make myself a little more accessible on tour, but I'm kind of just taking it case by case. House shows in a lot of cities are so precarious, with the police and stuff you can't really be posting the address and promoting it in the way that I would need to.
What was your experience in Europe like? Was that your first time over as Waxahatchee?
Yeah, I went over on tour with Tegan and Sara, that was my first time ever, it was awesome. It was weird, because we got there and we were really jetlagged and then we were immediately playing with Tegan and Sara, so it was sort of like a weird dream the whole time. They were the coolest, and their audience was the coolest. I'm headed back out there on my own after this tour, without the cushion of Tegan and Sara's wonderful audience [laughs]. It'll be cool though, I'm going with Swearin', so basically all of my best friends are going on tour with me. Keith and myself were there and we had all of these stories about everything, and it's always fun when you go somewhere and then you get to bring your friends back with you to experience it. It's like experiencing everything a second time for yourself.
Waxahatchee will perform with Screaming Females, Tenement and Frozen Teens on Tuesday, September 24.

Additional Information
About Credit MongolCredit Mongol is the largest non-banking financial institution (NBFI) in Mongolia. Its mission is to contribute to the prosperity of Mongolians by providing high-quality, affordable and varied financial services to micro-entrepreneurs and small-to-medium-sized businesses. It prioritizes serving remote, rural populations that have typically lacked access to credit and other financial services. Uniquely, it offers solar panel loans to nomadic herders, most of whom live without electricity.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

We've seen tons of pictures and a few unofficial specs for the Nexus One trickle out of the past couple of weeks, but the folks at Engadget have found the mother lode. They've also gotten word that the Nexus one will be sold starting Jan. 5, albet on an invite-only basis at first, which they're guessing will be developers. A full T-Mobile retail launch is still in the cards, though, it's just that nobody knows when. Hit the break for the rest of the specs. [Engadget]
Nexus One specs leaked, retail sales may be 'invite-only' intially
Reader comments
Nexus One specs leaked, retail sales may be 'invite-only' intially
Ok, these caps are intentional:
Actually, cj100570 and I both told you since this news was released this was going to be a developer phone.
The proof is in the post: http://www.androidcentral.com/pictures-nexus-one-aka-google-phone-pop
this phone does nothing mor than the droid. don't get me wrong it looks great and I love android but hands down doesn't so anything more at the moment. Also it will be on tmobile making it accessible to very few people.
92 million on verizon
89 million on ATT
51 million on Sprint
20 million on TMobile
I think the two things that set this apart from the DROID is the AMOLED display and the FM radio (and of course Android 2.1). Of course, this is nothing new. Nokia's have had FM radios for the longest and Samsung has the display on the Moment.
But I agree with all you say, which is part of the reason why I've been saying for so long that this is a developer phone. This is the first Android dev phone with these things in it - especially the FM radio. So now developers can develop apps for basic radio listening but also design intriguing apps that incorporate it. (Probably shouldn't put this out there until I put out an app using it.... but imagine a real estate app that lets you listen to a listing in front of a house then schedule an appointment thru the phone right on the spot?)
It's also the first one to push a 1Ghz processor. So it gives game developers a reason to seriously consider Android as a gaming platform thus pushing Android's credibility higher.
So yes, it doesn't "do" much more than the DROID. But what it presents to developers goes beyond anything that is running Android at the moment.
Just wanted to point out that if you are interested in the Nexus One there is a full forum for them here:

Former Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle on Tuesday withdrew his nomination to oversee the Health and Human Services Department, just a few hours after another Obama nominee also withdrew.
Both had controversies with taxes and cited distractions over that as their reasons for withdrawing.
In a White House statement, President Barack Obama said he accepted Daschle's withdrawal "with sadness and regret." "Now we must move forward," Obama added. A day earlier, Obama had said he "absolutely" stood by Daschle.
Daschle has been battling for his nomination since it was disclosed he failed to pay more than $120,000 in taxes. He later paid $128,203 in back taxes and $11,964 in interest.
Daschle, in a separate statement, said he would have not been able to operate "with the full faith of Congress and the American people."
"I am not that leader, and will not be a distraction" to Obama's agenda, he said.
Daschle also was facing questions about potential conflicts of interests related to the speaking fees he accepted from health care interests.
Daschle also provided advice to health insurers and hospitals through his post-Senate work at a law firm.
The withdrawal comes after Republicans and major newspapers questioned Obama's decision to stick with Daschle.
Republican Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina said Obama was "losing credibility" with his statements in support of Daschle. "Part of leadership is recognizing when there has been a mistake made and responding quickly," the Republican said.
In an editorial, The New York Times described Daschle's ability to move "cozily between government and industry" as a cloud over any role he might play in changing the nation's health care system.

Tour this Grade-I listed building designed by Jo Littlefair
Jo Littlefair and Martin Goddard of interior design company Goddard Littlefair have created interiors for five-star hotels as well as residential properties. Their latest project has seen them design the schemes for apartments in a Grade-I listed building in London. Jo showed us around one of the apartments and explained the challenges and unusual room shapes they came across. Take inspiration here...
This is an amazing space! We may not have such wonderful architecture at home, but we'd love some tips on making the interior of a large dual or multipurpose room work well?
"We like to form individual areas within large rooms (as picture above) - be that a dining area, seating group, a snug or library. By giving each area identity, it increases the sense of moving through a space, creating a journey as it were. Scaling furniture appropriately is something we are fastidious about as it means we can control proportions and attain that designed-to-fit look, rather than simply filling spaces with oversized modular sofas – this is a much more considered approach."
Great display at the end of the hall. Can you tell us more?
"Each of the apartments here have so many twists and turns that it is important to have key focal points to create clear distinction between areas. We felt deepening the wall colour demonstrated a shift from living areas to more personal areas such as the bedroom, and the mirrors give a quirky touch while adding the illusion of extra space."
Can you talk to us through the kitchen scheme?
"The kitchen is blessed with a skylight and a wonderful floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall window looking out over the water garden. We complemented the copious amounts of natural light with light grey tones and white cabinetry – allowing for the light to reflect from the walls. To create warmth we softened the window by adding curtains, not a common sight in a practical area, but it definitely made the kitchen-dining area more welcoming with the added benefit of privacy, particularly in the evening."
Love the colour scheme in this bedroom. Can you explain why you picked it?
"We designed each of the apartments here with a particular type of buyer in mind and we chose to give this apartment a feminine personality. We envisioned an owner who was interested in the arts, and in particular the ballet, hence the beautiful ballerina artwork. Throughout the scheme we used silvers, taupes, greys and purples. The silver and deep purples in this bedroom are perhaps a stronger side of this scheme with very dramatic curtains and a romantic headboard, which both show off the amazing proportions of this apartment."
Fab room, awkward shape. How did you deal with its challenges?
"Yes, a circular bedroom is indeed an interesting shape to work within. We built a wall to create a wardrobe area and divide the space. This immediately gave us the location for the bed but we had to be very careful to scale the bed and headboard to fit, and also not overpower the room. Bedside tables were impossible to fit so we decided to use some lovely antique brass floorstanding reading lamps as alternative light sources. Brass is extremely popular at the moment as it adds a warmth to rooms. The very low ceilings meant we had to use a shallow ceiling fitting, which always attracts a lot of interest from viewers of the apartment and consequently became a focal point of the room."

Had same prob. Took controller apart and found a wire from the carbon pile rectifier had become loose from the circuit board. Resoldered it and it works fine. Rectifier and circuit board are located in controller part under the dark plastic cap; ie., the part that fits into the wall. It apparently gets pretty hot when left on for awhile (like overnight) even with only about half of the 500 watt max load, and the solder connection melted loose.

Are you teased often?
If so, what about?
Potentially a sensitive topic, yeah.
Nobody teases me in a serious way, though they certainly have reason to! Actually, one person did somewhat make fun of me- he later claimed that he wasn't. No matter, though; I punched him and he's never mentioned what he was teasing about again. (:
Family of course teases me. Usually doesn't bother me, though. It does get on my nerves, however, when my dad uses the way I dress (apparently he doesn't like my wearing dark clothes) as a target to tease me. x: It's just what family does, though, hmm?
My other friend likes to tease by calling me an alcoholic and a drug addict, but she's obviously just joking and knows very well that those things aren't true. I guess it's just because of a sort of misunderstanding. One of them, at least. The other isn't true but she kind of has reason to tease about.
I can't think of a good signature.

She Earned a Law Degree Despite Five Children. Get Guinness on the Phone.
IT HAS BECOME A WARM TRADITION. Some graduates march up to receive their diplomas
with one, sometimes two of their children in tow.
"I have been trying to balance work and family most of my adult life so the stress of law school felt kind of familiar," says Yonina, whose sons and daughters ranged in age from 10 to two months when she graduated in May.
Yonina, a former schoolteacher, acknowledges that parenting that many children while going to law school presented challenges, but also provided benefits. She distinctly remembers one pitfall of parenthood. It came during her first year. A professor called on her as she walked into class late, delayed by a tardy babysitter. But, on another occasion, the pluses were apparent, as when a professor led a discussion in torts class on the value of car seats. Who could understand the issue better than the mother of four children strapped into a minivan?
