Flat Roof Advcie
1. First company suggested removing the old roof, laying down tapered insulation (to make sure the water drains) and laying a new rubber roof on top for about $2,000. (work also included some flashing on the wall and brick columns).
2. The next guy said the same (tapered roof) but for $650. This seems almost TOO cheap to be good work.
3. The next guy (who comes with the most recommendations) suggested leaving the old roof on and just laying down the torch applied rubber roof. When I asked why not tapering it, he said he can but it's expensive and even though the water may sit in areas, nothing's going to come through this rubber roof. His quote was about $500.
4. The last guy also suggested just laying the rubber roof but said he would take the old roof off before laying the new rubber one down.
Since the suggested work differs so much I'm hoping you guys can throw some advice my way. I'm leaning towards guy #3 just because he's dome work for people I know (although the cheapest, his work seems the least comprehensive- or do I not need anything more?)
Modified bitumen torch down is not an apprpriate material for this. It has a ten year life expectancy with maintanance. Epdm rubber roofing can last forty years with no maintainance.
How often did you say you want to redo this roof?
here is what the tapered job would include:
-1/8" per foot tapered polyiso insulation
-install fiberglass base sheet
-install firestone app-180 black granule torch applied membrane-sheet metal edging where needed
some white aluminum cap flashing
Does it also seem to you that $650 is way to cheap to be real? Also, the people who recommended just laying a new layer of rubber roofing said that since the roof is not used for anything, I don't need to spend the $$ to do the whole tapering thing. They also said $650 is too cheap.
Any feelings out there?
Thanks again,
This guy might do a decent job but he is not enough of a businessman to allow for insurance costs or profit. That makes me question whether he will still be in business to fix any leaks in two years. So if he has good references maybe you want to check your homeowners policy in case he gets hurt on your property, and go ahead and take the gamble on him, banking the savings

According to analysts, BRK-B should be trading at $137.
Why BRK-B is not moving up in price despite 46% in earnings?
Hi Krisumus...:)
Berkshire had a significant run up of late... there is a natural consolidation that happens here. Most investors in Berkshire are long term investors, and are less reactive to quarterly reports than investors in higher flying growth or momentum heavy stocks would get...
Sentiment: Buy
Also because it is the summer. Manny fund managers are on vacation. So they are not trading. Plus this stock is perfect for momentum traders. I think the moment of this stock now is mainly caused by the momentum traders.
Majority of people of who buy this stock are long term investors. As of now, these long term investors don't know if they will get a better return buying bonds or equity.
It is because of the fed. The fed have not made it clear when they are going to taper their bond buying program.

Argentina: Amnesty Laws Declared Unconstitutional, Potential for Human Rights Prosecutions Expands
Argentina's top court struck down 1980s amnesties for members of the country's 1976-1983 military junta on June 14. Human rights organizations and President Nestor Kirchner hailed the Corte Suprema de Justicia (CSJ) ruling as an end to impunity that previous administrations had extended for those accused of crimes during the dictatorship. Hundreds could now face charges of torture, forced disappearance, and child kidnapping during Argentina's "dirty war" against dissidents.
CSJ nullifies Punto Final, Obediencia Debida laws
The Argentine Congress originally annulled the Obediencia Debida and Punto Final (due obedience and full stop) amnesty laws in August 2003. The laws, passed in 1986 and 1987, ended prosecutions against lower-ranking members of the military who argued that they were only following orders when they kidnapped, tortured, and killed political prisoners. Former President Carlos Saul Menem (1989-1999) also handed down a sweeping set of pardons in October 1989, removing the threat of prosecution for hundreds of military officers (see NotiSur, 1989-10-10).
In a 7-1 vote with one abstention, the Corte Suprema affirmed the congressional annulment of the amnesty laws, citing international law and constitutional norms. It was the most important decision to come out of the court that President Kirchner has been restaffing. Kirchner helped to make the ruling possible by recently replacing several members of the CSJ.
The June 14 ruling strengthened a March 2004 decision in which Federal Judge Rodolfo Canicoba annulled pardons for certain military officers (see NotiSur, 2004-04-02). Human rights lawyer and director of the Centro de Estudios Legales y Sociales (CELS) Victor Abramovich said that "sooner or later" new legal precedents would overturn the pardons by Menem, which released the former junta members from prison.
International law guides decision
In their verdict, the justices ruled that, in cases involving crimes against humanity, international human rights conventions to which Argentina is a signatory take precedence over national laws.
"If we commit ourselves to living up to international treaties, we must respect and enforce them," said CSJ Justice Carmen Argibay, who until recently sat on the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague that brought war criminals from the former Yugoslavia to justice.
The international agreements "are more than just a signature and noble-sounding statements," said Argibay, who added that failure to comply with the treaties could have serious consequences for the state.
Under Argentine law, the decision can be taken as precedent in other cases. Other justices cited war crimes and human rights crimes as the worst the law can deal with and therefore argued against allowing impunity in such cases.
While six other justices voted to overturn the amnesties for reasons similar to Argibay's, Justice Carlos Fayt voted for the amnesties, saying that the Constitution was above international treaties. "That doesn't in any way mean justifying the overwhelming enormity of the horror, nor leaving the crimes committed during the military dictatorship in impunity," Fayt said. He also mentioned military manuals to demonstrate that subordinates were acting on orders of commanders who have already been judged.
Justice Augusto Belluscio abstained from the vote, having handed his resignation to President Kirchner the day before. He will leave the court in September. He did not vote against the amnesties so as not to contradict his vote to ratify the amnesty laws in a previous ruling.
The latest ruling came in the case of Julio Simon, a former policeman accused of involvement in the disappearance of Jose Poblete and Gertrudis Hlaczik and of taking their daughter, Claudia Poblete.
Poblete, a Chilean citizen who moved to Buenos Aires after losing his legs in a train accident, began a political movement, the Frente de Lisiados Peronistas (Peronist Disabled Persons Front). …

Hello! My name's Ibarra, 16 from the bay area. I've had this nishiki international for about 2 1/2 year now. I did some small research when I first got the bike to figure out it was a 83 but thats the farthest I got. When I got the bike It had on suntour cyclone deraileurs, suntour downtube shifters (The ones that had a detatchable mount that actually bolted unto the downtube instead of the shifters attatching directly to the downtube), some 27" araya wheels, dia compe 500 brakes, dia compe brake levers and sugino gs cranks.
I rode the bike for about a year and replaced all the cables, re-packed the hubs, got some tektro brake levers with comfy rubber hoods, and koolstop salmons. There came a point when something didn't feel right with the bike and I took it to a shop, it turned out that something inside the rear hub came loose. So I decided to start a 700c conversion on it. I had the bike for a week but made a stupid mistake of not tightening the rear skewer enough and while climbing out of the saddle, the wheel popped out and bent it irreversably out of true.
Ever since its been sitting in my room due to a fixie which i've had for a year that had taken it's place out of necessity (I commute to school which is a 14mi round trip).
Well for a while I've been wanting to re-build the bike into a nice comfy tourer/city bike. My question is, Is the frame worth rebuilding and putting some fresh-er components/ better wheelset on? I was thinking an old-er shimano 600 or dura-ace 6600 components. Hopefully while still maintaining the downtube shifting system.
Back when it was still running
Current state
If possible could you give me some info from this code? I remember finding some stuff
about it a while back. KC35904
Sticker Headbadge
I was wondering if this was of any significance? The handcrafted thing.
So yeah, I was just wondering if it's worth rebuilding or should I look for a newer bike to use as a base. Also I would if possible like to know if there's anything significant about the frame itself. Thank you
Holy crap. I just realized I posted this in the wrong area. Sorry

A New London-based group of disabled gun owners is about to serve Gov. Dannel P. Malloy with what is believed to be the first of several lawsuits challenging the gun control measures Malloy signed into law last week.
City resident Scott Ennis, managing member of Disabled Americans for Firearms Rights and a longtime gun owner, said the new law is discriminatory and would deprive him of his Constitutional right to bear arms and his civil rights on the basis of physical disability. He suffers from hemophilia A, a bleeding disorder that causes severe joint damage. He said he is unable to straighten his arm or rotate his hand under a rifle that does not have a vertical forward grip like those found on the now-banned AR-15-type weapons.
"The AR-15, due to its ease of handling, low recoil, adjustable features, and customizability, is particularly suited for disabled persons in order to engage in lawful use of firearms, including hunting, recreational and competitive shooting, and personal defense," the lawsuit reads.
The group is represented by North Stonington attorney Scott D. Camassar, who has known Ennis since they both attended New London High School in the 1980s and Camassar competed on the school's rifle team.
Camassar said the lawsuit has been delivered to a marshal and within days would be served on the governor through the Attorney General's office and filed in court.
He said the new gun laws would not do anything to prevent another Newtown.
"Everyone's heart was broken, there's no question," Camassar said. "I'm a parent. I'm a husband of a teacher. I'm as concerned about school violence as anyone else. If I thought this bill was going to prevent anything, I'd be all for it."
Malloy's spokesman, Andrew R. Doba, said this is the first he's heard of any challenge to the legislation.
"We've known for some time that groups opposed to the new gun violence prevention law would be filing suit against it," Doba said in a prepared statement. "We believe the bill improves public safety, and we will work with the Attorney General's office to defend it. Let's not forget that this has happened before. In prior instances where Connecticut has passed common sense restrictions on firearms, there have been challenges. They have all been unsuccessful."
Camassar said the AR-15 and other semi-automatic guns of its type are among the most commonly owned firearms in the country. Recent estimates suggest there are approximately 4 million AR-15s in the country, which would include many thousands in Connecticut, he said.
"They're out there," he said. "You can make every single one of them illegal today. People who want to misuse them are going to get them."
Camassar said cosmetic features like forward grips and adjustable stocks don't make a rifle more legal, nor do factory-standard magazines that hold more than 10 bullets.
"Disabled citizens of Connecticut should not be precluded from using firearms lawfully because of the governor's desire to enact 'the toughest gun laws' in the nation," Camassar said. "The governor needs to accommodate the disabled. The new law unconstitutionally discriminates against the physically disabled, and we intend to hold the state to the clear requirements of Connecticut constitutional and statutory law."
The Connecticut Citizens Defense League announced Thursday that it would band together with other gun rights groups, individuals and gun clubs to challenge the new law.
"CCDL has formed a working alliance with the Coalition of Connecticut Sportsmen and the National Rifle Association to challenge the newly minted Public Act 13-3," group president, Scott Wilson, said. "The expanded list of common firearms that are included in the language of the act affect many gun owners that have never even broken a law."

Strength of the Aztecs
When second-year head coach Brady Hoke needs to take the temperature of his San Diego State football team, he doesn't look to Pac-10 and SEC-bred offensive coordinator Al Borges or former New Mexico head coach-turned-defensive coordinator Rocky Long. Nor does he consult with his seven position coaches, who combine for more than 120 years of collegiate coaching experience.
He talks to Aaron Wellman, the Aztecs' strength and conditioning coach whose ties with Hoke extend back to their time together at Ball State.
"He is the pulse of our team," Hoke said. "He's my right hand. I talk to him more than anybody else. We have a relationship built on trust and character. If I couldn't have brought him here (from Ball State) I wouldn't have taken this job. And you can put that in print."
This preseason's buzz has been all about the bulk — the significant strength increases made by the Aztecs on both sides of the ball. After last season, Hoke called his team "woefully weak" and said his team would have a different physique after spending a full off season with Wellman — SDSU's man behind the muscle.
Hoke and Wellman can offer quantitative evidence of increased muscle mass and extensive data on lifts and runs. But one needs only to look at the tighter, thicker Aztecs to see his methods are effective.
"First, it's gotta be hard," Wellman said. "They have to make an investment. They have to feel like when August comes around they deserve to win. Because if what they've done from January to August and they don't feel like they deserve to win, it's going to be easier to give up."
Wellman's services have been sought by Mountain West Conference coaches and national powerhouse programs. Wyoming tried to hire him and Florida coach Urban Meyer tried to lure Wellman twice, according to Hoke.
Wellman's reputation among the players is one of results-oriented, brutal honesty. Players say the tempo, discipline and philosophy of the weight-training program is far more intense than that of the previous coaching staff.
"Last year when he came in, we were getting hit right in the face with what he was throwing at us," said quarterback Ryan Lindley, who clearly bulked up with about 15 pounds of muscle. "This year, I think we were attacking what he was throwing at us rather than just sitting back and taking it. We knew it was going to be hard. But we wanted to get after it."
A former college safety at Division III Manchester College in Indiana, Wellman knew he wanted to work with athletes. After one semester as an athletic trainer, he realized that wasn't for him. He interned with the strength and conditioning coach Jerry Schmidt at Notre Dame, who is now at Oklahoma. Wellman has been a strength coach for 15 years — seven as the man in charge. Before Ball State, he spent three seasons at Michigan State working with the football team, men's and women's basketball teams and hockey team.
"He's intense," said defensive lineman Ernie Lawson. "He demands greatness from us. He's not asking for 6-6 or just to be bowl eligible. He demands 12-0. 13-0."
Ask most players and they'll tell you the drill they hate most is plate-pushes. Usually coming at the end of a lift session, players have to push 45-pound plates about 100 yards. Sometimes, Wellman will have the players race to up the intensity level.
"I don't think the cupboards were bare when we got here. We had some athletes," he said. "But from a weight-room standpoint, we showed them a different way to do things."

Joe B replied to DevilMinder's topic in Hellat game, haven't seen tv broadcast yet, inisital thoughts Severson looked hurt, or just off near the end of the 3rd. Seemed to be holding arm or something after a shift in ot. Trouble getting out of zone with puck behind net a few times. Think the NHL guys were out there so can't blame the rookies. Not sure if it was the Rags pressure, or more miscommunication, but it just didn't look good. Lots of wide open hockey in the third. No clue if this is our new style or just a bad period, we shall see Tieing a game in ot just hurts my head. just go to a 3-2-1-0 pt system so all of this ot crap doesn't matter as much as it currently does Fine,league want a shootout, at least do it right guess that 4 on 3 pp work will be big this year. Why not just make every penalty a penalty shot in ot? sounds like a crappy idea the league would love. Joe Edit to add food review. They now have buffalo chicken and Taylor ham Strombolis. No ranch or blue cheese, just marinara sauce. I got the taylor ham, was cubed, not sliced. I think slicing like they do witht he pepperoni would be better. With mozz which didn't quite blend well for me. I had one that was out for a bit while a friend had one that was fresh which he liked so that may be the issue. I also think I will try it with ketchup next time if there is a fresh one. I will give a buffalo chicken review once I try it withen a game or 2. Designated driver free soda is back. Which will let me actually get more food. No free soda last year cut down on my overall food buying
Here we go again. New goal song for 14-15
Joe B replied to '7''s topic in Hellthe you suck part was figured out by the 2nd or 3rd goal. I was at both games. had what, 5k at the absolute most Friday night. I assume your die-hard season ticket holders, the you suck after the vuvuzula guy was louder than when they just had the original song. They even cheered after the cheer to add extra troll. Really has turned into a Streisand effect. Its been fun to watch. vuvu starts after goal is announced, so mascot starts a drum 'lets go devils' chant. Devs wait to announce the goal during stoppage to go right music, vuvu starts at the puck drop. I see people yelling you suck now that didn't when it was just the R&Rp2. tonight was a more mixed crowd. bigger, more kids, lots o rangers fans. still many yelling you suck and syncing up after a couple goals. At this point if we play taps after a goal, we will stick a you suck into it. I did not hear a 'rags suck Ps-Cw' chant the first night and did hear a few tonight. That one always got me more upset, I wouldn't mind once a non rangers game and maybe a few during rangers game without all the accouterments. At this point, put the old goal song, put the 'you rock' graphics at the appropriate times and you may organically kill the chant after a few loosing years, by making a big deal of it, you intensified just it. And I think I've mentioned my stance, doesn't bother me, I don't chant it, let others have their fun. Crowd doesn't make enough noise so trying to break up one of the few times they do doesn't make sense to me. i do understand people not liking it, but don't get the intense hatred from some towards those that do like it.
Q & A with Shero
Joe B replied to Joe B's topic in Hellwasn't an elderly lady that asked the question and there wasn't much attitude about it. I was wrong, was thinking of a different question. There was a bit of attitude, especially the In 'one man's opinion' question.
Jagr's Still Got It
Joe B replied to NJDevils1214's topic in HellIf he is anything like Peter Griffin he will feel like he slept with Jagr. Better to find out now that she will blackmail someone for 2k then to hear a few months from now, oops, I forgot to take the pill.
Q & A with Shero
Joe B posted a topic in HellSmall season ticket holder Q & A with Shero tonight. Held in 'Boardwalk' area. . Free pretzels, hot dogs and soda, water. Stage set up with 2 comfy chairs. Laughin interviewed him a bit, the fans got to ask a dozen or so questions. Seems personable enough, couple jokes. Talked about the changes to expect. Says this team isn't as far away as when he was with the expansion team. Expects to be competitive this year. Sees whats been written in the press and is trying to motivate the players off of it. Can't remember the exact quote but something along the line of just because it is predicted before the season doesn't mean it will happen unless you let it happen, Mentioned old devils type of teams. roll 4 lines, although tough in cap era, had a calder cup while winning in 95. Had Elias and sykora in al while winning for example so he is stressing assets. Different feeling for fans and franchise if you make the playoffs after missing a few years as opposed to 8, 9 years in a row. Mentioned johnny Macs goal in 88. 2'nd question from a fan was about tanking. He isn't worried about next years raft, he is worried abut this years team. asked if he wants to model after any winning team said not really, more about acquiring assets and mentioned the fast supportive game. He is high on Hynes, knows we need help on O, but how do we get it doesn't want to sign bad contracts. We have Cap space, we have to use it wisely if and when an opportunity arises. depends on the scouts to be ready when they do arrive. Not sure about who gets C. Not sure if we have one at the season start. Says both coach and his decision, but has to happen organically. Did mention the devils always killed the penguins. Thought he walked a tough line of respecting the past and the change in the future. Some rah - rah type stuff for the fans. I sill don't hear emphasis on D mentioned that much so that does scare me I must admit, but again, you usually need 10 games into the season to get any type of feel for a team so I will try not to worry. Took pics and shook hands with some people afterwards. Hugh Webber (actually, he asked someone else who told us) said that the designated driver soda will be back next season. I asked Laughlin who has the tougher job. Ray, Cory or Cangi. replacing who they are replacing. Matt said Cangi because Doc is still at the top of his game. Paraphrasing everyone, including myself Joe
Devils sign PL3
Joe B replied to Marshall's topic in Hellbefore I look? He an ex Penguin? I'm guessing 75 - 25 he was. Yes he was. Still shouldn't see the ice for that stupid instigator when the team was short handed few years ago. Doesn't matter how good of a fighter you are, you just have to know when it is needed(that was definitely not the time). Yes it is needed at times, yes you can't be a liability on the ice. PL3 didn't do either well. Maybe there will be some deboer - clarkson magic and Hynes gets PL3 3 goals. Wouldn't shock me a this point, already in shock and have no idea how this season will play out.
http://www.boston.com/sports/hockey/articles/2009/11/10/a_special_breed/?page Story I mentioned in other post. From a article with some other interesting stories from when he was inducted into the HoF joe
highly recommended . Can we ban Chere from, this site. He is such a troll now. 'Meadowlands Coliseum'? Shero is kinda funny. ' I was thinking, "What the hell did I do wrong? I'm not even in the league! Not mentioned in his piece, who was the player (Billington maybe?) who brought is fiance to meet Lou before they got married. Not sure if was for his blessing, or to discuss it, or just respect, (like meeting his parents)y. Anyway, Lou kicked the player out of the room for a few minutes to talk to the woman and she refused to tell the player what Lou said till this day (or at least when I read the story which I think was out when Lou was going into the HoF. kinda tough for younger fans to understand him because the 'Lou rules' are established, and when you are younger you tend to be anti establishment. Some of the rational for the rules have been explained int he past. We have always tended to be in the bottom for penalties taken, and to be disciplined on the ice, you have to be disciplined off the ice. Devils org does a lot for communities without always publicizing it. (My mom works for the town and they always give stuff for charities and events). Like players visiting hospitals. Do it for the kids / patients, don't do it for the PR of helping the kids. I freely admit I drink the kool-aid but it is because of the respect I have for him. That takes years of observation. Someone shouldn't just earn your respect overnight, so I do understand some of the anti Lou stuff if you just got into the team recently. I will just say i think your are wrong and if you read some of the quotes by former players(not all, casue I'm sure a few that were sent packing were not happy, who got shipped to Manitoba? one of the brotens maybe?) they would run thru walls for him. It may look different from the outside, but once you play for the organization, you appreciate it.(all opinion, but think I Gilmour mentioned it, I don't think Kovy signs with us if he wasn't part of the team for that half season(not sure if Lou signs him without seeing how he fit, although he may have been overruled by jvb ayway) so it's an educated opinion) I keep this up I may break my 30 some odd posts a year in this thread. I just think this is such a huge change, I just don't know what direction this franchise is going to go.
was more the fact that a trade offer leaked than the offer itself. No rumors of Lou to toronto today. That is how Lou operates, so io guess I did need the sarc tag
So now that Lou is gone...
Joe B replied to '7''s topic in Hellwhy do people keep mentioning long hair. We've had players with long hair before. Peluso comes to mind immediately.
I will miss Lou, He started the rebuild (even if he didn't say it) with the trade for Cory. Just look at the D and their age. Maybe most people want a full rebuild, but how many fans are gonna sit though that. When johnny mac had that disaster of a start they couldn't give away tickets. How long have the isles been rebuilding (been hearing they are taking the next step for years), Oilers? Rebuilds are crapshoot. Other than detroit, we have been the model franchise for 20 or 30 years. Rangers missed the playoffs for 7 straight seasons and for as much talk as their fans have had. 1 finals in how long? We made the finals while Lou supposedly has had the game pass him by. but new owners, they want their stamp. will it work, hope so, but i would have more faith if Lou was still part of the devils. Hell Nets went to the finals twice with lou on board, he has a yankees ring as well. I think Lou and his philosophy would succeed in most business. My favorite Lou story. 1 of the years Scotty Nieds was holding out. A fan waived a bill in the air (single, maybe a 5) at Lou and said, that his is to help sign Niedermayer, Lou turned around, took the bill, said thank you, turned around to walk away with a sh!t eating grin that made me laugh for a good five minutes. The fan just stood there with his mouth open and didn't know what to say Stood near where the stairs to the devils offices where in brendan byrne so I interacted with him a bit. couple words here, couple words there, but always polite / pleasant to us as fans. Many fans, are fans of this team because of Lou weather they know(admit?) it or not. what a spoiled fanbase, Last 20 years, Lou, Marty, Nieds, Stevens and doc. Not even gonna mention the short term greats that we may not have seen at their prime but you can tell you grandkids about i don't think it's a coincidence that Lou left a day after the trade offer was leaked. Must have been the last straw. I don't know, do I need a sacr tag on that last comment? I think it's pretty funny but I'm an old fart now .
Devils resign eric gelinas to 2 year deal
Joe B replied to justintime2989's topic in HellSince this thread has already been derail, I'm gonna babble. on topic Gelly, until this year, I thought he had more value to another team then ours. Yes, he has a shot. that's about it. No knock on heart / effort / desire or that kinda attribute. Just doesn't seem to get D. Just doesn't seem creative enough on O to offset his D liability. There was a stretch where he played well though. I think he was paired with Larsson for a stretch(maybe 5 - 10 games). I've been saying to package him for a while so the people near my seats so when he does play well, it is discussed. Not sure if it was comfort with the same partner or if he was just used correctly. And while he is still relatively young, it's about the point where it clicks or it just doesn't and we have a plethora of young D behind him, and ahead of him. Speaking of the more value for other franchises. My next point I understand it is a new regime, I expect change, i expect a new philosophy. Shero has been saying the rights things. I think he handled the house cleaning fairly well. I am just afraid that I haven't been hearing enough about defense in general. No, I'm not talking about getting a big bruising defensman (although i do think you need some size, can't all me small and i'm not saying that's what we have) but I am just talking about a team philosophy of commitment to D. I just haven't heard it(and with the quality we have in Cory (please keeping working on the puck handling, it is so underated, such an asset that is sorely missed) why hang him out to dry?) Maybe closer to camp, maybe it's just to fire up the fans because defense just isn't sexy to talk about (and no, I didn't want Sevens to be coach(sorry PK) and that was one of the very few positives about Lou leaving (not that I think he would have given him the job, but I think the break was easier, but you don't want players with jersey hanging in the rafters to be on the outs with team (and know I don't think Marty is on the outs, he is in a transition, thinking more yogi / and the boss)) maybe it will be an attacking D like when the PK had almost as many goals as the gave up. I will reserve judgement till I see the on ice product, it's just a note in my head at this point. I expect Merill to take a step forward, I expect JJ to keep improving. The shootout goals show the skill, Can he stay healthy, everytime he seems to get going, something happens. i'm not worried about larsson, I think he has been getting the nieds treatment (not that I think he has talent, casue I don't know many who do, this fanbase has been absolutely spoiled by some of the players we've seen) learn to be comfortable on D and the O will come. I do think he gets the game, Not sure about qb'ing the pp, but I feel comfortable (most of the times, there are some hiccups) with him on the ice in any situation. Henrique is a wildcard for me. He needs to start taking the next step (I think he has another level, or maybe he just had a couple clutch goals in him and he is what he is which is good 2 way, but not great) As for this board. As a longtime (off and on) poster, it was the best place for devils info. I go to TG's first now, but when you wade through all the crap, there is absolute gold here. never liked HF and hated when posters tried to bring some of their crap here. ILWT is ok (I like john nice guy, pleasant to talk to, met him at one of the ice cream socials) but more hit or miss for me, too analytical for me (I like a mix, but yes, I do believe my lying eyes) and I'm not even sure if there are any other sites I am aware of. but, this site is brutal to to wade thru at times. I am a smart ass, I admit it, I mostly post to either point out that someone said something beyond stupid, or to make a funny (and occasionally just babble in the wrong post and put an end to threads). When this team was winning, the negativity is tough, nowadays it is mind boggling. how many fvcking threads do I have to hear Marty or Lou bashing. This team isn't original 6, we don't have a ton of tradition, but we do now, some of us remember when we didn't, why the need for some to sh!t on tradition is beyond me. Tweeks here and there, sure fine, I understand, but it is overbearing when you don't read the board every day it gets repetitive when you do the bulk read. The site was too nazi ish (yes, I invoked goodwin) at times, but there does need to be some order. Tri was right in his first post in this thread. Game day threads are a joke some days, every now and then i'd like to make a point about a particular game, but have no desire when there are 3 (or however few) people chatting and make the thread useless for actual discussion of the game. Face it people, not all of you are as funny as you think you are. The jinx type threads? Stop it, there is too much negativity on this board as it is, and saying afterwards that you didn't mean it or that you were venting just doesn't help. I know, who the hell am I, no one, but it's fvcking annoying. i'm sure I'm not the only one. I've lived thru GR talking about seeing in their eyes or waitresses or whatever, it gets old real fast. There are too many posters that don't have the right blend of when to be serious and when to go off on the tangents. I think I have all of the ()'s balanced. sorry if I don't cause I didn't proofread this crap, don't expect many of you to read the whole thing, why should I? looking forward to this season. it will be interesting. like some of the moves, lets see what sticks and what we can build on. As long as we aren't out of the playoffs 7 years, we can stand a rebuild Joe

Additional Information
More information about this loan
This loan is part of XacBank's startup loan program targeting loans to clients who are classified as very poor on the Progress out of Poverty Index (PPI). This program provides special training to startup loan recipients, and offers them an annual interest rate that is 2.4% to 3.6% lower than for standard loans. By funding this loan, you are supporting a program that helps borrowers get their businesses off the ground.
About XacBankThis loan is being administered through XacBank, a Mongolian for-profit microfinance institution. XacBank is located in every province of Mongolia, reaching some of the most rural micro business clients. With this Kiva loan, there is an opportunity for the entrepreneur to get a savings account including 9% of the interest if they pay back the loan on time. This is a special savings account that XacBank has specifically prepared for the Kiva loan borrowers to promote savings habits.
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.

I am faced with a Windows hardware/software problem left over from another person. It's on me to resolve. It's a mission critical setup. The situation is:
I've got a physical server machine with:
-Disk C:\ (one disk) containing a basic install of Windows Server 2008 R2, formerly Win Vista Pro, now gone.
-Disk D:\ (software Raid) containing a VirtualBox disk image of a configured Windows Server 2008 R2 running SQL Server R2 among others.
What shall I do now?
Migrate all the stuff from the configured VM to the basic but
natively installed C:\ Windows Server 2008 R2 (with the possibility
of breaking stuff)? Or,
Setting up the machine to "natively boot" the VM with the help of bcdedit.exe (something I've read about, what I've never done, what I don't know of if it works, if it hits performance, or if it is stable for production)
For me, being old skool, I am in the process of de-virtualising everything (option 1). But I'd be happy if someone suggests I am ok to go down the "natively boot" route.

If I wasn't so negative, I wouldn't have posted this from the Pistonsblog:
"Gifted ball handler" may not be a phrase you'd expect to hear about Jennings, but it suits him. Amongst guards that started at least 10 games last season, Jennings was 57th in turnover percentage despite a very high usage rate. His 2.6:1 assist/turnover ratio doesn't compare favorably to a guy like Jose Calderon, but it is head-and-shoulders above the 1.5:1 a/t ratio of his trade counterpart Brandon Knight. Knight should not be the standard by which Jennings is judged, but his ability to keep control of the ball despite such significant scoring and passing numbers is something to be admired."Hide replies
"Under Boylan, Jennings shot less and passed more, a small shred of evidence but enough to justify a hope that there might be more in Brandon Jennings. In 32 games under Skiles, Jennings attempted 16.5 field goals per game and handed out 5.8 assists. Playing for Boylan, Jennings shot 15 attempts with 7 assists per game for the final 48 of the season. It could be a fluke, but it's better to have evidence for hope than no evidence at all (ahem, Brandon Knight)."
A number skewed heavily by way of a sit down with Boylan 'suggesting' to Jennings that now that J/J is here how about passing that thing a bit more, uh mate~
Jennings as an opportunity with Detroit to change, and/or refine his
game by now inserting a balance to his point guard tool belt, and
indeed, follow on the thought presented by the Piston Blog.
Will Brandon Jennings change the way he plays? He said as much
when he stated, (rough paraphrase)...."now that...there is more talent
I'll have to....change my game...I won't have to shoot as much..."
We saw first hand how unhappy he was, and how his demeanor, and approach to the game changed post J/J. He seemingly did not want to by into the 'new way' as it meant less shooting / more passing.
He acted out. One game he had three attempts to the rim.
Maybe he's changed, and the motor city will be his Phoenix Rising,
or, maybe, "The Song Remains the Same"....as always with
these things....
"We Shall See">
Mahr Looms>>>
Is anyone even high on Brandon Knight? I am not going to beat the guy up until I see him play for the Bucks, but I don't really have the expectation that he is our PG of the future. I don't want to rule the guy out, but based on scouting reports, his best role on a team might be a defensive guard off the bench that can hit some threes for you. We should have some answers after this season. We shouldn't stereotype PG's named Brandon as being unable to improve.
1 thing is for sure....he won't go down like Joan Collins @ the Playboy Club after a hard screen is set on him.
Man, BNK, I don't know where you're going with this, but it seems like you want things to go wrong. Gifted ball handler? POS teammate!
Did you read the bit about Knight being strong and fighting through picks? Did you read him say he wants to play good defense, just yesterday? Drew saying he plays good defense?
Maybe Jennings will find the answer in Detroit. Good for him. Old news now. He gone.
I would love to see Knight turn his career around after being subjected to the Larry Drew Effect. I would love to see him become the good facilitator here for the Bucks, that he hasn't been yet.
But. I do tend to bristle when I read that it's a done deal, or that someone thinks he has been anything more than a disappointment in Detroit. They were glad to get Jennings for him.
And that's why we watch them play the game, gentlemen. Can't wait to see the 'Brandon ShowDown'.
I think Jennings could improve his game in the right situation, but at the end of the day his mental makeup is going to be what keeps him and his team from reaching the ultimate goal.
Brandon Knight? It's still early, i'll hang with the potential he entered the league with and see where the new regime can take him.
Done deal? I think that's a crock, BnK. If anyone is saying it's a done deal, it's you with your doomed to failure posts. Please spare us the PG ranking posts. Knight didn't play that much point last season so the numbers are, um, pointless. Many see this a new beginning for a player with a load of skill. Why not give the guy a shot? You can always start dumping on him by mid November.
Like mbrad, I too took note of the gifted ball handler line. TOs don't happen too often if you don't play a drive & dish into the interior kinda game. BJ only liked to pass to those wing shooters he says he didn't have.
I don't think Krakkens is out of line. He's simply stating facts. They can't be disputed. There is a chance Knight will get much better. Normally this is the season players make the biggest jump in production. He was the high school player of the year twice for a reason.
This much I know. He will play better defense than Jennings. That will be nice to see.
Bucks need Krakkens - Thursday at 12:42 PM - Report Abuse
I have a lot of respect for Led and his hard edge.
I'm glad Jennings is gone. I have hopes that Drew is the 'point guard whisperer" that some seem to expect. Big muscles and defensive intensity sounds great, too. I'm just afraid this team is short one quarterback.
It is true about the turnovers. Jennings game was risky shooting-wise, but too safe passing-wise.
"If you're not making mistakes, then you're not doing anything. I'm positive that a doer makes mistakes." >>Friedrich Nietzsche
Knight averaged 4.0 assists per game last year. Color me unimpressed. Easy to see that improving, but not enough to make it a strength, though.
Hey, Led!
This is why Bucks boards are the best. How in the heck can Milwaukee seriously be considering letting these guys leave when we have such fans as these?
Packers boards are full of people ready to take a gun to their heads. I guess I shouldn't say that, but what angst! For the Packers? What would it take provoke optimism?
Anyway, I respect that Knight may not be the PG of the future, but I like his bloodlines and his attitude. Maybe he's the Junior Bridgeman of the future and they get that PG next year. I sill think he is a step up.
The much maligned Time Warner Cable folks just did yours truly a solid.
Each year with the "bundle package' one must re-up, or change the package
you have. This quarters promotion, in addition to the package I have,
finds TWC *upping the speed on the desk top, *adding long distance to the

This of course is excellent timing relative to both Seasons beginning

later this evening, fresh off the NBA-TV feed...-Lakers vs. Warriors at
around the 9:00 hour. Nice. Its far too early to settle in to a
complete game, yet, we will 'stop in' periodically and catch some of this
In a piece this AM's Tribune Coach Tibs is going to give Dunleavy sometime
with the starters as he looks to find that combo of players that work well
together. Jimmy Butler (Marquette) had secured the starting role with
exquisite play last season, yet, its a brave new world so lets give this thing
a try. Noah still dealing with the foot injury and will not play. (Noah
is key to anything Chicago does this year; even with the Rose back in form).

wasn't about being right or being wrong. Rather, how we choose to approach
ANY topic that finds itself on this board. Some issues obviously have more weight

adamant response from those -on both sides-. This topic hits a nerve with
yours truly, and nothing written was of a personal nature against you the writer,
just your perception of what you thought 'truth to be'.
In the end amigo you might just be right?

Sort of a soggy day on the links. That's what these blogs are for [Steiner].
Point-counter-point. An exchange of opinions between fans. I've always looked at these blogs like a bunch of guys sitting in a bar and sometimes those opinions turn into arguments, then which turn into "you wanta bet" ventures.
That's why I think those red thumb/green thumb symbols are silly. These conversations shouldn't be rated or scored by some nameless person hiding behind a computer screen so he can feel better about himself.
Looking forward to the season.
the red thumbs of cowardice are upon US!
Just returned from fan fest and I must say Giannes looks mighty good. Some real nice passes and long arms a plus on D. Another intriguing player is the 7' 1" 280lb. Russian. Like a fullback clearing the lane the gut is huge.Hide replies
And Knights shot looks horrendously awkward.
If he can be as good a passer as has been predicted, that will really add value to all of our new shooters. I want him to see plenty of court time.
DITTO ON g-b0...........HE'S NOT GOING TO SEE MUCH OF THE d LEAGUE.
Gary Neal's jumper looked turrible.
TreeBeard sets an awesome moving screen.
Syzmon Cyborg is not a bad player...just a little foul prone.
Gianna. if you think Randy`s blurb is neat, yesterday I picked up a great Smart ForTwo from having made $4671 this-last/month an would you believe ten-grand this past-munth. it's actualy the best work I've ever done.

13 Tips to Strengthen Your Immune System
1. Kick Back and Relax
Some stress can be a good thing. It helps your body get ready for a challenge. But if it lasts too long, that's bad news. Studies show it can weaken your immune system -- your body's defense against illness. Avoid stress when you can, and make it a priority to unwind and do things you enjoy.
3. Get a Pet
There's a reason dogs are called "man's best friend." Dogs and other animals bring companionship, exercise, and better health. Research shows that having a pet can lower blood pressure, cut cholesterol levels, and improve heart health. In one study, having a dog improved immune system development and cut kids' chances of having allergies.
4. Build a Strong Social Network
You already treasure your friends, but did you know they also have a big effect on your health? In one study, college freshmen who were lonely had weaker immune systems than those with good connections. To widen your circle, try volunteering, taking a class, or joining a group that interests you. And be sure to nurture the bonds you already have.
5. Look on the Bright Side
Positive thoughts can give your immune system a healthy boost. One study of law students found that when they felt more optimistic, their immune system was stronger. To boost your optimism, take time to savor the things you enjoy, look for the silver lining in tough situations, and try not to dwell on negative thoughts.
6. Have a Laugh
A good giggle might have benefits. There's some evidence that laughter may help boost our immune system -- and it has no downside! A group of researchers who looked at several studies on the topic found that after people laughed out loud at funny videos, their immune system worked better. But it's not yet clear if that means less illness in the long run.
7. Eat Your Antioxidants
Fruits and vegetables will give you nutrients that guard against free radicals, molecules that can harm cells. To get a wide range, go for lots of colorful items such as oranges, green peppers, broccoli, kiwi, strawberries, carrots, watermelon, papaya, leafy greens, and cantaloupe.
8. Consider Herbs and Supplements
Many people take herbs or supplements. Some of these items may affect the immune system, but more studies are needed to see if they have health benefits. Because some supplements can interact with other medicines you take, talk with your doctor first so you know what's safe for you to try.
9. Keep Your Body Moving
One simple way to strengthen your immune system is to exercise. You will also curb stress and cut your chance of getting osteoporosis, heart disease, and some types of cancer. You get the most benefit when you exercise at a moderate level (like a brisk bike ride) most days of the week. You can do anything you like -- walk, swim, golf, dance, garden, or do yoga, to name just a few options.
10. Get a Good Night's Sleep
Your immune system will be better prepared to fight off illness. Most adults need about 7 to 9 hours of sleep each night. It helps to go to bed at a regular time, be active, avoid caffeine and alcohol after dinner, make your bedroom comfy, and unwind at the end of your day.

flash or continious lights
Have a cannon 1d mkii 70-200 2.8 lens. I am used to shooting outside so inside is a whole new animal. I want to shoot a pagent my little girl will be in. can do and use any light i want. Since there will be different colors of dresses and distances will change exposure. which would be better a shoe mount flash or studio lights? If i get a flash do i need a cannon flash or a knock off brand? I don't need much light to fix problem. if it is a dark background will hide shadows but underexposes photos. where a lighter background will overexpose but will show shadows. Any advice will help.

End of the Trip
Writer Ken Kesey Earned Raves for Cuckoo's Nest, but An Lsd-Driven Bus Voyage Made Him a '60s Icon
But complications set in, and Kesey died at age 66 on Nov. 10. It was the end of a wildly original life in which telling people what to do played no small role. Acclaimed for two of his four novels, One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest (1962) and Sometimes a Great Notion (1964), Kesey won notoriety preaching the virtues of LSD. His '64 cross-country bus trip with a band of addled pals he called the Merry Pranksters was chronicled by Tom Wolfe in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test. Above all, Kesey said then, his message was this: "It is possible to be different without being a threat." It was a belief he held onto until the end.
He didn't start out so different. Kesey grew up on a dairy farm in Springfield, Ore. A wrestling star, he married high school sweetheart Faye Haxby in 1956, graduated from the University of Oregon and studied writing at Stanford University. Then, in 1959, he volunteered for drug experiments at the Menlo Park, Calif., hospital where he later worked as an attendant in a psychiatric ward. The experience inspired him to spread the LSD gospel—and to write Cuckoo's Nest, which became a 1963 play and then a 1975 Oscar-winning film starring Jack Nicholson.
Kesey spent his later years raising cattle on his Pleasant Hill farm with Faye, now 66, and their children Shannon, 41, Zane, 40, and Sunshine, 34. (Son Jed died in a car crash at age 20 in '84.) He partly blamed past indulgences for his failure to write another bestseller. "He said, 'I don't have the concentration I used to,' " recalls novelist and friend Larry McMurtry. Still, he had few regrets. Says nephew Kit: "His life was packed full."

Enhanced for Bible Study using the Resource Guide
Available for: iPad, iPhone, Android, Mac, Windows Desktop and Windows Store.
In Simon Peter's eyes, the mercy of forgiveness is, perhaps, matched only by the awe of experiencing trust after his threefold denial. That redemptive event in Peter's life fueled profound letters—letters of caution and hope, grave counsel, and unimaginable promise.
Jude is too often ignored because of its short length and forceful content. Regardless, it is dominated by God's love and is a source of significant instruction for the church.
In this commentary, Robert Harvey and Philip H. Towner explore the subjects of composition, canonicity, purpose, and theology. Finally, they show how all these connect for today's church.

Former Mariners pitcher still recovering from shoulder surgery for Yankees
TAMPA, Fla. — Michael Pineda hurt his shoulder last March and became trapped in an endless spring training, working out all season at the Yankees' minor-league complex.
"It's a little sad for me last year because I'm very excited (to be) traded to New York," said Pineda, a former Mariner. "I really wanted to pitch."
The Yankees will break camp again without Pineda, leaving him to continue rehabbing from a torn labrum that required surgery. A June return is his best-case scenario.
"We're hoping we can get what we traded for, under the circumstances, a year later," said GM Brian Cashman.

A month before the 2012 camp opened, Cashman dealt catcher Jesus Montero and right-hander Hector Noesi to the Mariners for Pineda and minor-league pitcher Jose Campos.
For all the talk of someday prying ace Felix Hernandez from Seattle, the Yankees had picked up a younger, hard-throwing right-hander with control and a biting slider.
But he arrived last February some 20 pounds overweight. By August, Pineda was charged with DUI.
"A really bad year for me," Pineda said. But, "everything's in the past. I'm very excited for this year. … I'm feeling good, stronger now. I'm ready to pitch this year."
• Kevin Youkilis made the back page of two New York tabloids for telling reporters at his first day of spring training with the Yankees that "I'll always be a Red Sox." "I was basically defining that, as a player, I'll be a Red Sox, and a White Sox, and a Yankee for life," he said. "Trust me, there's no way that was meant to say my heart is in Boston or anything like that. My heart is here with the Yankees."

• Jair Jurrjens and the Orioles have agreed to a minor-league contract. Jurrjens, an NL All-Star in 2011 with Atlanta, is 53-37 with a 3.62 ERA in six major-league seasons.
