Before hanging check that rolls are undamaged, that the product code, batch and letters are the same for each roll of the design and that all colours match. Full instructions for hanging are also enclosed in every roll of paper. Before hanging wallpaper inspect the wallcovering for defects and shading. Ensure the walls are correctly prepared. For absorbent surfaces use a recommended primer sealer, always following the manufacturers instructions. Lining paper should always be hung horizontally using a recommended adhesive and allowed to dry completely. Ensure that the correct Cole & Son paste is used. No claim for hanging costs will be allowed for goods in excess of one roll.
Please note you will need to check which paper you are hanging before you follow these instructions. If the label states "NON-WOVEN WALLCOVERING" please follow the instructions for non-woven wallcovering. Otherwise you will need to follow the instructions marked for standard wallcovering. If you are at all unsure please call customer services.

Advice for paperhangers standard wallcovering prepare the walls:
Hanging Instructions for the Caledonia collection
A – Inspection ProcessThis natural hand crafted wallpaper should only be installed by an experienced professional decorator.
Upon receipt of goods fully inspect all rolls to ensure that you have received the correct items. Check for possible colour variations and other technical imperfections prior to cutting any rolls or hanging any wallpaper.
Do not cut or hang any material until you have fully read the hanging instructions and undertaken a thorough inspection of the goods.
No claims will be allowed for material costs after the hanging of more than three drops. Absolutely no claims will be accepted for labour or other consequential losses.
B – Wallcovering Installation
Wall PreparationCarefully prepare the wall before hanging, if necessary the walls should be lined.
The wall should be smooth solid dry and clean.
Remove any dark stains or patches on the wall to ensure that the wall is evenly coloured.
Do not hang over glossy or non porous areas. Painted walls should be rubbed down to remove grease or soiling and glossy paint should be rubbed down with suitable sandpaper.
Pre paste porous wall surfaces such as plasterboard or chipboard. Never hang over new plaster or un-primed wall areas.
Grasscloth's and Paper Weaves have good permeability however if moisture sources are not eliminated at the origin, no surface material applied to walls will prevent moisture accumulation.
Preparation of lengths (colour and batch sequence)As you work through the rolls, all lengths need to be cut numbered and hung in sequence of drops, rolls and batches to ensure as even an application of colour and texture as possible on the wall
Check each roll for variances and test shades on opposite walls. Plan your installation by laying out the drops.
You may choose to reverse hang alternate lengths as this can sometimes achieve a more even spread of colour across the full wall. Hang the lengths in the planned sequence.
Measure and cut three drops. Ensure all lengths are cut to size leaving approximately 5-7.5cms for trimming at the top and bottom of each strip. Paste trim and hang one strip at a time.
For the HAMILTON design, the wallcovering must be dry table trimmed to remove the selvedge. DO NOT OVERLAP AND SPLICE.
Adhesive ApplicationAll products should be hung using a high quality non-staining pre-mixed adhesive. Cole & Son recommends the use of the Cole & Son ready mixed tub paste, or an equivalent, for all of these papers except HAMILTON. For the HAMILTON design you must use a quality grade of heavy-duty premixed clear vinyl adhesive with a low water content. Do not dilute.
Apply the paste to the back of the wallcovering using as light an application as possible to ensure a good adhesion to the wall.
Ensure that the adhesive is applied to the edges to avoid open seams and that it is not applied too thickly. Do not soak the material excessively so that it becomes too wet. Soaking time should be kept to between 5 and 10 minutes.
Fold both ends paste side in towards the centre of the drop to stop the paste from drying during soaking. Take special care not to crease the paper while folding and loosely roll up the lengths so that creases are not visible after installation
(For HAMILTON the soaking time should be extended to at least 20 minutes. Additionally, if required, pre-paste the wall and allow the wall to become tacky before applying the wallcovering).
C. Hanging ProcedureDraw a straight vertical plumb line from the ceiling to the skirting board.
Take your pasted and soaked first drop and unfold the top half of the drop and apply to the wall. Slide the paper into position so that it touches the vertical plumb line.
Using a soft clean wallpaper brush or a felt roller gently press the strip against the wall. After positioning the top half of the strip, carefully unfold the bottom half and smooth the whole strip into place, from the top down and from the centre outward, forcing out any air pockets.
Avoid getting any paste on the surface of the material whilst smoothing the wallpaper.
Clean excess paste with a clean dry cloth or sponge. Do not use a seam roller.
Remove the excess paper top and bottom with a razor knife.
Ensure that the first strip is straight. This will help determine the success of the installation. It is important to wait until the first drop is completely dry to check the result prior to proceeding with the next drops.
Hang all subsequent strips the same way and in sequence of lengths rolls and batch.
For the HAMILTON wallcovering only, apply the material to the wall using a soft brush, plastic smoother, or, drywall blade wrapped with a soft cloth. When smoothing, work from the centre out to the edges. To avoid trapping air bubbles, use an oval seam roller to butt seams. Wash smoothing brush and seam roller often as an accumulation of paste on tools may mark or scratch the material. Completely clean adhesive off the surface after each strip is hung. Wash seams with a damp sponge and clean warm water. Change rinse water often. Any adhesive left on the surface can cause flaking. Dry carefully with a soft cloth or chamois.

Critical Mass - Police win appeal!
21.05.07 by Buffalo Bill
Despite one of the judges saying that Critical Mass 'is a perfectly lawful activity, and if, for any reason, it ceases to be so, the police have ample powers to intervene', the Appeal Court today ruled that Critical Mass is subject to the Public Order Act, which governs processions.
This will mean that unless someone declares themselves the organiser of the event, and submits a route to the police in advance for their approval, the gathering will be illegal. The whole point of Critical Mass is that traditionally it is not organised, and simply a monthly coincidence.
This is a reversal of an earlier High Court decision, which was reported in Moving Target.
Well done, the boys in blue. Moving Target congratulates you on a major contribution to public safety.
The BBC's report is here.

In conversation with chuchito valdes jr.
by Tomas Pe±a
Born in Havana Cuba, Chuchito Valdes Jr. hails from one of the most distinguished and important musical families in Cuba. He has recorded and performed with Irakere, a groundbreaking group that he led for two years. In addition, he has performed at festivals, clubs and concerts throughout the world. His ensemble was featured at the 19th International Havana Jazz Festival (2000), as well as at the Canc·n International Jazz Festival in May of 2001 & 2002. The band recently completed a successful U.S tour.
In his youth, Chuchito learned from many Cuban masters, but he also studied classical music including harmony and composition. When he is not traveling around the world performing, Chuchito lives in Canc·n, Mexico where he leads his Afro-Cuban based Latin-Jazz ensemble. His original compositions and arrangements draw on a wide variety of classical harmonic and structural techniques and his music reflects many styles including Afro-Cuban Latin Jazz, Bebop, Danzon, Cha-Cha- Cha, Son Montuno among others.
My comments: At first glance, itÆs a bit tricky distinguishing Chuchito Valdez Jr. from his father, Chucho (the resemblance is astonishing), but when lays his masterful hands on the ivories there is mistaking the fact that Chuchito is his own person. On stage Chuchito is flamboyant and occasionally ōover the top,ö but he is as comfortable with a raucous version of Mambo Influenciado as he is with a lyrical danzon. With genes like his, can you blame him for being so exuberant?
Congratulations on an amazing performance. Is this your first visit to New York?
No, I was here about two years ago. I performed at the Jazz Standard and I have performed at Birdland in the past.
ItÆs been awhile seen we have seen your grandfather, Bebo and your father, Chucho. How are they doing?
They are well thank God.
How does it feel to hail from such an important musical family?
At times itÆs difficult. . . . My mother was the person who encouraged me to pursue a career as a musician. She told me that I had a gift for music, that I was a ōnatural.ö
Funny you should mention that. I was just about to ask why you chose the piano.
Believe it or not, I started as a baseball player. . . but my mother always encouraged me to believe that I had options and that I didnÆt have to stick to one thing.
What is your motherÆs name?
Mercedes. She was a singer in Cuba, but she gave up her career to stay home and take care of the kids!
No doubt, you have been told that the resemblance between you and your father is astonishing. Do the constant comparisons to your father bother you or have you grown accustomed to it?
There is no getting around the fact that we are the spitting image of each other. My face, my body, I look exactly like him. But I donÆt feel any pressure. ItÆs difficult to explain but thatÆs just the way it is.
So essentially you were born to play the piano.
In school my case was considered strange. I loved baseball but I was drawn to the piano. It created such a stir that the teachers finally came to the conclusion that it would be in my best interest to pursue a career in music.
How old were you at the time?
So at thirteen you turned all of your efforts to mastering the piano?
ThatÆs how it was.
Not long ago, I had the pleasure of meeting Bobby Carcasses. As I understand it he was one of your mentors.
I have a lot of admiration for Bobby Carcasses. The first jazz concert that I ever did was with Bobby, Juan Formell Jr. and Frederico from Los Van Van ģ
Bobby has been a father, mentor and ōguruö to many of the young musicians in Cuba. While he was here, he made a recording with (drummer) Dafnis Prieto, (saxophonist) Yosvany Terry, (pianist) Osmany Paredes, (flutist) Andrea Brachfeld and others. [Note: Carcasses performed at The Jazz Gallery in 2007. The recording has yet to be released.]
For me Bobby has been a father, mentor, guide and guru ģ
What kind of music did your father play at home?
My father played a lot of Oscar Peterson around the house.
Were there any other American Jazz Artists that had an influence on your father?
Bill Evans, Ahmad Jamal, Erroll Garner ģ
Did you receive any musical training from your father? Where did you receive your formal training?
I attended the Ignacio Cervantes School for Professional Musicians. In answer to the second question, no, my father never said, ōsit down and play this ģö
Still, you must have been influenced by listening to him rehearse ģ
Yes, but my father was away a lot.
Your style is very physical. What goes through your mind when you are performing?
A lot of emotions. I think of my family ¢ my wife, my children ģ
Your family is in Canc·n, Mexico, correct?
You live there permanently?
So you are able to travel freely between Cuba, Mexico and the U.S? Getting back to your style of playing, what else goes through your mind?
Yes I am able to travel to Cuba whenever I like.
[At this point in the interview my partner and interpreter, Nilsa Gutierrez comments that she sensed ōa forceö guiding ChuchitoÆs hand and Chuchito literally jumps out of his seat.]
You saw and felt that? Women see things we donÆt see ģ
No doubt!
ItÆs true. I donÆt really know where my power comes from.
LetÆs just say it comes from God, a higher power. Pianist Omar Sosa told me the same thing.
Yes, from God. You have to have respect for people that have that kind of vision (looks at Nilsa). Peligro! (Danger!)! Salud y Ache para ti! (Blessings).
[Laughter] LetÆs talk about your new CD, Keys of Latin Jazz and a new recording that was just released in Mexico, called Dynastia Valdez, featuring Bebo, Chucho and yourself.
Dynastia Valdez was a surprise to me.
How so?
ItÆs actually a compilation of our music (3 CDÆs).
So the three of you are not actually performing together?
And Keys of Latin Jazz?
I recorded that with my group in Chicago. I composed all of the music, with the exception of two songs (by Pedro Flores and Rafael Hernandez).
The composer is listed as Luis Jesus Valdez. Is that your full name?
Yes, Luis Jesus Valdez.
Forgive me for asking but I know you as ōChuchito.ö
My fatherÆs name is Jesus Valdez Rodriguez.
Is there any possibility that you might record with your grandfather and your father in the future?
The idea has been in the works for two years. Unfortunately, my grandfatherÆs record company (Calle 54 Records) is not on board.
I have no idea. We were scheduled to perform at the Blue Note but for some reason, it never happened.
The Blue Note in New York?
No, my father canÆt come to New York because of his visa and the political situation.
ThatÆs too bad, I hope the situation resolves itself. On another note, where do you see yourself in the next five years?
First, I would like to earn a Grammy! Then I would like to consolidate my music and decide what else. I want to compose, arrange and perform with a symphony orchestra. And of course, become a better piano player.
At this point in the interview musician Juan Formell Jr. chimes in.
JF: Become a better piano player? What more can be done with the piano? Between you, your father and your grandfather you have exhausted all of the possibilities!
We could add a few more keys ģ how about ninety-one keys instead of eighty-eight [Laughter). On a more serious note, would you care to comment on U.S./Cuba relations?
I donÆt like to discuss politics, however, I would like to see Cuba and the U.S. get back together.
I second that. Do you have any plans to return to New York in the near future?
I will be touring for the next month and performing with my group in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Chicago. Afterwards, I will return to Mexico. I like traveling and working in the states but I enjoy returning home to my family.
I was in Mexico City about three years ago. Jazz wise, there wasnÆt a lot happening.
There is one jazz club in Canc·n and I play there often [Chucho says the name of the venue but it is unintelligible.] I played there so often that the owner would get angry at me when I went on tour! There is also a jazz festival. I was lucky enough to have the governor of Canc·n appoint me as the musical director in 2006.
Is that a yearly event?
ItÆs supposed to be but last year they the festival was canceled due to lack of support.
When is the festival held?
In May. Please come!
You donÆt have to ask me twice!
I hope to become the President of the festival in the future. A lot of people are not aware of the fact that the festival dates back fifteen years. Ray Charles and Tito Puente have performed there in the past.
I hope to see you there. Thank you so much for taking the time to speak with me.
Thank you. But before you leave, did you enjoy the music? Tell me the truth.
Are you serious? It was amazing. We had a blast! Please give my regards to your family.
Thank you.

Hola, Chuchito, I hope to see you at the Pavo Real restaurant in Punta Maroma in the Riviera Maya in concert this coming Saturday night. It's been a while since I heard you play in these parts. I still remember your performances at jazz festivals here and at Roots the downtown Cancun jazz club. You were playing in Cozumel for a time and I lost track of you. Buena Suerte, hermano.

I was at your wonderful Caramoor concert Saturday afternoon August 2nd. Have you ever recorded any of that piano duet music? Any of your CDs play any of Saturday's music. Tremednous performance and more's the pity if it wasn't recorded. I'd love to share it with my family who couldn't attend and others.

I need to know the amount of baking soda to take, how long befor the drug test should i take the baking soda, and do i have to pee a certain amount of times befor i take my u.a.
hr. repeat the step again, then wait another 1/2 hr and repeat the step for the last time. You should then drink about another 8 oz. and urinate at least 2 times take a multi vitamin to add color to you
urine. The best thing to drink after this is ice t with no sugar and try not to urinate no more than a
total of 4 times before yor test. This has about a 4 to 5 hr window. Those who cannot drink baking
soda water wrap the baking soda up in tissue paper and swallow them has the same effect. I have
never failed a drug test for probation once in 4 yrs using this tequnique. So good luck.

Do a 3-4 day modified fast (1000-2000 cals/d), very low carb and high protein. This gets recent fat stores mobilized to rid the body of current lipophilic drugs (THC, steroid esters, etc..) followed by a serious 48hrs carb load leading up to test. The carb up ensures you are burning glucose and storing fat at the time of the test and not excreting it, so a calorie surplus is required. Also, you do not want to drink too many fluids if you didn't fast because this can actually concentrate lipophilics in the urine, not dilute them! Diuretics can only dilute water soluble drugs or lipophilics that can form water soluble salt (stims like amphetamine or ephedrine). If you have used a a stim recently, you can acidify your urine with ammonium chloride, aspirin or vitamin C for a day or two kinda like the lipophilic protocol, then make sure your urine is basic when you take the test. A teaspoon of baking soda is a cheap way to do this and works well. This makes the stim clear out fast by forced acid diuresis before the test and hold on to any stims still left in your system during the test period so they are temporarily not excreted, just in case some were still in your system. Otherwise high water intake is good if you fasted properly and don't forget to take creatine. The monohydrate works at about 1g/50lbs of body weight. More than that will show an abnormal result and automatically get further testing or dismissed completely as a positive sample, but if your urine is too diluted, it will fail for low creatinine values and test bad too, so you need a little creatine for sure. Plus, take a B-complex to make sure your urine looks yellow. This will make it look concentrated and dilution will not be suspected, even if electrolyte values are low. If the urine is too light, it will fail visual inspection automatically before it can even be tested.
I've passed dozens of urine tests over the years, even doing stuff to the very night before in several cases (that was stupid though and I don't recommend it) plus I worked in a lab for about 2.5 years were I could test myself constantly so I gathered a good bit of data from personal experiments. However, if you're on Deca or Laurabolin, you better say your prayers too, because the metabolites are detectable at very low levels and can persist for over a year. In that case, the fast is the best shot you have, or a masking agent. Orals usually clear fast though (a week or two).

Seeking Information About Investing? Try These Tips!
Even the most professional stock market investor knows how tricky the market is. While there's potential to earn vast sums of money, things can always go wrong. Applying what you've learned from this article will help you to make wise stock market investments.
Make sure you consider a wide variety of investment options. Be sure to invest in both growing and major companies. Such companies likely have stock that is stable, meaning minimal risk.
Stock Market
Paper trading is a good way to train for the stock market. This is a no-risk way to learn the ins and outs of real-time investing. When you do this, you get to practice investing in the stock market without risking real money.
Online trading in stocks can be an effective way to save some money while buying stocks. Internet trading firms are often significantly less expensive than in-person brokerage firms. Remember to do comparison shopping online for the best deal. Two popular choices for online firms are TradeKing and Fidelity.
Even though it is important to be dedicated to what you are doing while investing, you must be careful not to let it become an obsession. By becoming obsessed with the market, you are more apt to become burned out and begin making mistakes.
To get the feel for investing without putting up any money, play out a practice scenario. Software isn't required, either. Simply write down the price of your current stock picks. Take note of the performance history of your investments. This will give you a chance to see if your logic plays out without risking any actual money.
When looking at how you can diversify your portfolio, do not overlook international stocks. While you may feel more comfortable investing in US companies, if you want to be a part of the global economy, you should carefully select companies that are in different places in the world. You may, if you're a novice investor, want to consider investing in international mutual funds.
Earnings Growth
Try and get stocks that will net better than 10% annually, otherwise, simpler index funds will outperform you. To figure out the return that a particular stock is likely to deliver, all you need to do is add the dividend yield to the projected rate of earnings growth. If your stock yields 3% and also has 10% earnings growth, expect somewhere around a 13% overall return.
Instead of buying a couple of expensive stocks, think of buying cheaper ones. These stocks will sell easier and be easier to manage. In addition, letting go of a few shares of a twenty dollar stock may feel better than unloading your one and only share of a very expensive stock.
Before agreeing to a specific broker, make sure you understand the fees involved. You will have variable fees for entry and exit. This small fees can quickly add up.
If you reside in North America, get a Roth IRA then add the maximum amount funds permitted. Most US citizens are qualified for this type of account as long as they are part of the working or middle class. This type of investment has so many benefits and tax breaks that even if there is a medium level return, it can generate a large yield.
This article outlines a number of ways that you can improve your stock market investments. Put this advice into action so that you can keep your money safe and enjoy a good return on your investment.

15 stocks to buy for long term in india - Dead Monk's Portfolio
20 comments:
- Faizan Khan27 January 2013 at 01:12
can u throw some light on NOIDA toll bridge stock??ReplyDelete
What we like about Noida Toll Bridge Company is that-
1) It operates in a non-risky business of toll collection.
2) It is done with its capital expenditure i.e. the asset is in place and the only thing left is to collect toll from the users of this asset.
3) Debt outstanding is continously reducing. This is because the toll collected is being used to pay off the debt (& there is no need for further capital expenditure).
4) Since traffic is increasing, revenue collection is bound to increase in future. This in turn would increase the Earnings Per Share.
5) Once the debt is paid off, only way forward for the company is to share the wealth with shareholders, i.e., dividends are bound to increase in future.
6) Another point is that the repair & maintenance costs are not substantial when compared with overall revenues of the company.
These are certain points in favor of NTBCL. As far as valuations are concerned, we think that it is undervalued at current levels. But if one wants to know the degree of undervaluation, then it would require further research on the stock. Hope to do that soon. :-)
Disclosure: - No positions in the above mentioned company.

thank u so much for ur valuable insights...ReplyDelete
Thanks for your effort in creating a informative blog.liked your write up on WB letter and channel9 ipo avoid.ReplyDelete
As a fellow investor , i would like to point out that your DMP is missing one important parameter 'economic moat'...a few stocks have it but not in the sense WB puts it. For example look at this three stocks WB owns. Coca cola, visa, master card.
By following parameters like grahams number we can never accomdate these above three companies. We have to go charles mungers way..buy
Great companies rather than fair priced companies. (Is that not what WB teaches us?)The way I see it grahams and charles mungers approach are oceans apart. Only we see it on the same page because of WB.
This is only my opinion. Great work guys. Please continue to post.(looking forward to it).
P.s - Would charles munger recommend Page industries, titan..? Probably graham would strangle my neck :)

I am accumulating L&T, SBI & Hindalco at current levels, for long term of 5-10 years, are these good picks?ReplyDelete
L&T and SBI seem to be a good buy for 5-10 years. Hindalco is a cyclical stock. So you can consider exiting it in the next upmove and once again wait to buy it in another downturn.ReplyDelete

I am looking to buy Kingfisher Airlines or Gitanjali Gems for long term 2 to 3 years,are these good options?ReplyDelete
Why do you want to buy KFA? There are better businesses to invest in.ReplyDelete
- Naveen Navin26 September 2013 at 09:56
May i know the details, why i should not go to KFA..ReplyDelete
I am looking to hold 50-100 units in small or mid caps.Can you please recommend which stock to buy.
Some businesses are known not to make money when considered for long term investing. And airlines is one of them.ReplyDelete
But this does not rule out the possibility that any airline company, KFA or others may not make money in future. In stock markets, anything is possible. It is just that airlines is like a perennial loss making business and I as a personal choice may not like to invest in this business.
Small and mid caps are volatile in nature. So you must understand that a portfolio made solely of such businesses can see massive cuts in downturns and massive upmoves during booms. And by 50-100 units, do I presume that you mean number of shares??
- Naveen Navin27 September 2013 at 14:08
can you recommend which stock to buy?
Small and mid caps are risky by nature. So you need to do a lot more due diligence before investing your hard earned money in such companies. In a new post for Dead Monk's Portfolio (http://www.stableinvestor.com/2013/09/9-stocks-dead-monk-portfolio.html), I have chosen 2 small caps which you can consider. But this would depend a lot on what your expectations are. These stocks are not for the short term and may not turn out to be multi-baggers. So take your call. Any specific reason why you are inclined more towards small caps and not large caps?ReplyDelete
The news list is out :)ReplyDelete
Dev, Was there any further analysis done on Noida Toll Bridge. I am following this stock since last 1 year and now I got attracted to this stock as company is now Debt free and Profit is increasing. Lot of free cash flow.ROE is increasing. Div yield is mouth watering 6.5 % and still stock price is not gone up....ReplyDelete

text: Johannesburg - South African Premiership soccer team Bidvest Wits will play Costa do Sol from Mozambique as part of the Action Against Xenophobia festival at Sinaba Stadium in Daveyton on July 31. The organisers of the event, the Tsietsi Mashinini Trust and the City of Ekurhuleni, said on Thursday that a religious cleansing ceremony would be held at the Cyril Ramaphosa settlement in the East Rand a week before the match. The ceremony would be held on the site where Mozambican migrant Ernesto Nhamuave was set alight and killed during the South African xenophobic attacks in 2008. More than 60 people, both foreigners and citizens, were killed during the countrywide outrage in May that year. Mashinini was the leader of the 1976 student uprising in Soweto and died while in exile in 1990. His brother, Dan Mashinini, who founded the trust, said they had opted to host a soccer match because they viewed sport as the best platform to fight racism, gender and ethnic challenges. "I need to first say that I too was in exile for 14 years with thousands of my peers based in other African countries so I totally do not condone the xenophobic acts in South Africa," said Mashinini. Wits general manager George Mogotsi said they were honoured to be playing a part in the event. "When the Mashinini Trust approached us, I told my coach (Roger de Sa, born in Mozambique) that this would be for a great cause," said Mogotsi.

Wednesday started off with a few clouds(which actually prevented widespread temperatures in the 50s) and then sunshine prevailed before fair weather cumulus clouds popped up in the afternoon. The low temperature at Philadelphia International Airport was 62 around 5:30am while the high reached a cool 80 degrees just before 4pm(the average high is 87).
There were showers and thunderstorms well west of Center City(west of I-81 to be exact), but as we have stable air on top of us the storms will a) never reach us as well as b) lack of daytime heating is causing the storms to collapse. Overnight lows will be in the lower 60s with a mostly clear sky. Thursday will feature sunshine and then clouds in the afternoon once we reach our convective temperature(the estimated temperature that the surface must reach in order for clouds to develop). Highs will approach the middle 80s.
After lows around the middle 60s highs on Friday will be in the lower 80s with sunshine giving clouds in the late afternoon as a frontal boundary offshore begins to retrograde closer to the coast; overnight into Saturday there will be some showers and thunderstorms(especially along the coast) with highs close to the middle 80s. Come Sunday that front is still nearby, but there will be a lesser chance of rain(more of the isolated variety) as a second wave of low pressure riding along the front passes by to the east of the shoreline with highs in the middle 80s.
Remember that you can check out the rest of the 7-day forecast(any time) at www.scottderekwx.com/forecast.html.

Watching this video made my day. Great cop with the right attitude.
Initially I was like...well yeah..he's riding in the middle of a public thoroughfare....
Then realized he was on a 30 MPH road and doing 32 MPH, no need for that kinda shit.
It's one thing if you're going to hold up traffic pretending to be Lance Armstrong plodding along at 17 MPH in a 50 MPH zone, but that clearly wasn't the case here. (If you were in a car doing 17 MPH in a 50 you would get pulled over for being a safety hazard...)
3. metataggers 2 years ago
Kudos to the Skokie, IL Police department!
#2 In most contries, bikers are authorized to be (nearly) on the middle of the road. It gives you some space to move away from dumb drivers overtaking you too close.
5. kashinthebin 2 years ago
#1 bicyclists think they have so much rights on the road they are ridiculous, not saying this one is but many just cut you off and do so much stupid things.
6. pauldmixer 2 years ago
#5 not saying it's right or wrong (ethically) but legally, cyclists have as many rights to most roads as cars. In other words, cyclists have just as much of a right to be an idiot as car drivers do Just not as much protection from accidents...

Well hey there!
I'm Lupre, yeah the name sucks, I know. Get over it because I just made it up a few minutes ago.
I'm not a complete n00b (Oh no! Chatspeak! Head for the hills!) when it comes to forums, but I won't tell you what forums I have been on. I want my old identity to stay burried so I don't bring my old problems here.
The main forum I'm on, well, it's falling apart. People are losing faith in the authorties there, people whisper about corruption and lies, and others are beggining to quit left and right, and I really just need somewhere to turn away from all of the confusion.
So anyways, I'm fourteen years old, a girl... and kind of wondering how you've managed to read all of my boring writing ><
Speaking of writing, you'll definately see me hanging around the fanfiction section.
Yeah, I've got MSN if anybody wants to add me.

The Virginia General Assembly passed House Bill 2028 and Senate Bill 986 which put into place a new requirement for all teachers that will become effective on July 1, 2013. The relevant portion of this regulation states the following:
§ 4. Every person seeking initial licensure or renewal of a license shall provide evidence of completion of certification or training in emergency first aid, cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and the use of automated external defibrillators. The certification or training program shall be based on the current national evidence-based emergency cardiovascular care guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation and the use of an automated external defibrillator, such as a program developed by the American Heart Association or the American Red Cross. The Board shall provide a waiver for this requirement for any person with a disability whose disability prohibits such person from completing the certification or training….
This regulation applies to those in a program leading to licensure from the Virginia Department of Education and who are applying either for initial license or to add an endorsement to an existing license. This includes elementary, secondary, and special education teaching; gifted education teaching; reading and math specialists; school counseling; school psychology; K-12 educational leadership (endorsement in K-12 administration and supervision).
It is the responsibility of the applicant to obtain First Aid/CPR/AED training. Students have several options including the following:
- Training courses are offered by the American Red Cross and the American Heart Association. It is easy to find a course at a time and convenient location by visiting the websites of these organizations.

Chico F***ing Ruiz and the Bonehead Play of the YearPosted: September 21, 2011 | Author: Johnny Goodtimes | Filed under: Baseball | Tags: 1960s, 1964 Collapse, Art Mahaffey, Chico Ruiz, Phillies, Reds | 2 Comments »
September 21st is, quite simply, the darkest day in Philly Sports History. It was on this date, in 1964, that a mediocre utility infielder born with the name Hiraldo Sablon Ruiz did one of the stupidest things a baseball player can do, and in so doing started a chain of events that resulted in one of the most monumental collapses in the history of sports.
Born to a cigar maker in Cuba in 1938, at the time of the events in question he was a 25-year old rookie known as Chico. He is today more famous in Philadelphia than he is in his native city of Santo Domingo. If you don't know who he is, ask your father. Or better yet, don't. He seems happy. You'd hate to ruin his day. If your father is the salty sort, he'd probably just utter, "Chico F***ing Ruiz…I don't want to talk about it."
Ruiz is the gut punch in Philly that Bartman is in Chicago, and nearly as unlikely. He was a utility infielder with a .236 batting average when the Reds faced off with the Phillies that afternoon in 1964. The Phillies had Art Mahaffey on the mound, and a 6.5 game lead in the National League with 12 games to play. At 2:30 that afternoon, a young second baseman by the name of Pete Rose stepped into the batters box at Connie Mack Stadium, and the darkest day in Phils history began.
The 1964 Phils were a team whose whole was greater than the sum of its parts. The Giants had Mays, the Reds had Robinson, the Pirates had Clemente, the Braves had Aaron, the Phils had…Cookie Rojas. But it was a gritty team, the kind that Philadelphia falls madly in love with (see '93 Phillies, 2001 Sixers). Go Phillies Go! bumper stickers started appearing on cars, and when World Series tickets went on sale in September, 90,000 were sold within hours. When their plane landed in Philly on September 19th after a West Coast swing, 2,000 fans had greeted them at the airport.
Mahaffey had his best stuff that day, and the game went into the 6th inning at double nil. With one out, Chico Ruiz got a single. Vada Pinson lined a screamer off of Mahaffey's glove and into right field. Pinson tried to stretch it into a double, but Johnny Callison nailed him at 2nd with a perfect throw. And so, with two outs and Chico on 3rd, up to the plate stepped the dangerous Frank Robinson. Mahaffey quickly ran up two strikes on the right handed slugger, paying little attention to the Cuban dancing off of third base. Mahaffey wound up to deliver the pitch that he hoped would quell the Reds rally…and inexplicably Chico Ruiz broke for home.
If there is anything in baseball that is stupider than stealing home with 2 outs, 2 strikes, and a right hander at the plate, I can't think of it off the top of my head. Mahaffey would explain why years later. "Chico Ruiz stole home with two outs and two strikes on Frank Robinson. Now you must realize that with two outs and two strikes, if you throw a strike Frank Robinson swings and knocks Chico Ruiz's head off. It was just so stupid. Ruiz wasn't even thinking. Robinson was so upset because he was one of the league's leading hitters and near the lead in RBI and this guy's stealing home with him hitting. It was just such a crazy thing. We didn't know it was going to start a 10-game losing streak, but it couldn't have started in more ridiculous way."
Mahaffey was shaken by Rico's brazen stupidity, perhaps scared that if he threw a strike he would be an accessory to an involuntary manslaughter. The ball went flying out of his hands, far outside of catcher Clay Dalrymple's reach. Ruiz slid safely into home. There was a stone silence, as Phillies fans shook their heads in shock, and the Reds bench was dumbfounded by the stupidity of their 3rd basemen. "It was," said Pete Rose years later, "The dumbest play I've ever seen. Except that it worked." The Reds took a 1-0 lead, and they held it. The Phillies went 0-8 with runners in scoring position, and the game ended 1-0 in the Reds favor.
After the game, Phils manager Mauch would scream in the clubhouse, "Chico Fucking Ruiz beats us on a bonehead play of the year. Chico Fucking Ruiz steals home with Frank Robinson up! Can you believe it?" The next night, Mauch ordered his pitcher to drill him in the ribs. Ruiz smiled as he walked to first.
The "bonehead play of the year" started the monumental collapse of 1964. The Phils would lose their next 9 games as well, manager Gene Mauch would panic and start his two best pitchers (Bunning and Short) on two days rest 6 times, despite having Ray Culp waiting in the wings. The rest of the collapse is another story for another day. But today is a dark anniversary of the steal that started it all.
As for Chico Fucking Ruiz? In 1967, he became the first and only player to ever pinch hit for Johnny Bench. In 1969, he would utter one of the most hilarious sentences in baseball history. After starting for two straight weeks for injured shortstop Leo Cardenas, Ruiz stormed into the managers office with an ultimatum. "Bench me or trade me!" He was traded to the Angels, where he had a Gilbert Arenas moment with teammate Alex Johnson, allegedly pulling a gun on Johnson in the clubhouse. In 1972, he died in a car accident in San Diego. He was 33-years old. In his 8-year career, he stole home one time.

2 Comments on "Chico F***ing Ruiz and the Bonehead Play of the Year"
That photograph is a nightmare in itself. Ruiz, whom the sportswriters have already tagged as a few bricks short of a load (and indeed he certainly looks the part) can't run very well either. No wonder old Philly fans are suffering nightmares that will never end. Common sense and mental health suggest that they avoid that photo like a bad habit.
Sorry Philly fans, but Chico knew exactly what he was doing … and his sprint for home was a whole lot smarter than y'all realize. Here's why:
1. You always DO want to steal home with a right-handed batter at the plate. The catcher's sight line and ability to make the tag is a whole lot harder than with a left-hander at the plate.
2. Stealing with an 0-2 count is smart, too. What do pitchers do, at 0-2? At least 80% of the time, ESPECIALLY against a tough hitter like Frank Robinson, they are likely to waste one outside the strike zone. The chances of a passed ball, wild pitch or awkward bit of glove work go way up. That is exactly what happened. No surprise.
3. Robinson liked to crowd the plate, figuring that he might sometimes get hit by an inside pitch, but that he could then turn on an outside pitch and pull it. (Read his 1968 bio "My Life Is Baseball" for more details.) Bad for Ruiz? No that wasn't! It meant the tempting way to pitch him was a few inches wide of the plate on the first base side, inviting Robinson to chase a pitch that he couldn't hit. Do that — and the catcher has an even harder job swiveling around to try to nail Ruiz.
5. Scoreless tie against a tough pitcher is exactly when you should steal home. Jackie Robinson — an expert on stealing home — makes this point. When Robinson is down to his last strike with two out, he's no longer the .306 hitter that he was for 1964 overall. Most hitters give up about 70 BA points at 0-2, so he's notionally a .240 hitter at best. And if Robinson is out, the inning is over with a guy stranded on third. If Ruiz has even a 40% chance of stealing home, sending him is the smart play.
5. It's only the Phillies who claim Ruiz was "stupid" — and that's the sort of asinine thing that a perpetual loser would say. Ruiz's play worked. As the factors above show, it was very likely to work. No one on the Reds grumbled about it.
If the Phillies were a championship team that year, they would have accepted the Reds' cunning as part of the game, and regrouped just fine the next day. In any 162-game season, you're going to have a couple games that go bad for the damnedest reasons. It's like double-bogeying a hole in golf. You can let go of it and still have a good round, or you can poison your head with useless rage and take a double-bogey attitude through the rest of the afternoon.
I'm liking everything about Chico Ruiz's move — except the pitiful slide. He looks like the Disco Duck heading into the plate.
You're only quoting Phillie players about the supposed "stupidity" of Ruiz's move

Spanish Street Markets:
Bright, Loud, Gaudy and Fun
I love Spanish street markets. Where else can you enjoy the sights, sounds and flavors of Spain and buy clothes at bargain prices?
Spanish street markets boggle the brain, senses and pocketbook. They are bright, loud, gaudy and fun and you can outfit yourself from top to bottom at a cost far less than at the local shops.
There are shoes, socks, long pants and short pants, skirts, thongs and cotton briefs, T shirts, blouses, long and short sleeve shirts, sweaters, jackets, smart leather coats, hats of every imaginable style and accessories you never knew existed.
They take over entire blocks and besides clothing they offer fruits, antiques of real and doubtful provenance, artwork, footwear, furniture, knock-offs of every imaginable product, music, flowers and even rugs. Bargaining is the norm and there is a pervasive party atmosphere. This is a perfect way to spend hours buying things you never thought you needed and for less than you dreamed possible.
Where Are They?
The answer is everywhere. Every town, village and city both large and small has a market almost every week. Any local in any pub, café, restaurant or hotel can tell you when and where they are and how to get there. Or you can consult the local tourist office or newspaper. There are several papers in English in the tourist areas. Try www.surinenglish.com, www.theolivepress.es www.euroweeklynews.com/ or search for your location on the internet.
The Markets of Andalucía
We live in Spain part of the year and have several favourites. We know the markets in Andalucía on the southern coast of Spain very well and visit them regularly. There are several on every day of the year.
Each one is different and they are not at all like the ones at home. There are permanent markets in special buildings in many towns but the street markets are temporary and the merchants set up their booths just for the day in neighboring streets or a field near the town.
Another difference is that they do not contain any food or drink that could be consumed at the market. There is not a coffee shop or a snack bar within sight. This is more than made up for by the variety of goods on sale.
Our Favorites
You will hear many languages and the vendors seem adept at all of them. However the signs are in Spanish as are the calls exhorting you to buy zapatos (shoes) and pantalones (pants). The smell of fresh garlic, flowers, teas, spices and coffee permeates the area and rival music stands compete with each other and the itinerant musicians playing at every corner.
People are friendly, helpful and quite unconcerned about trying on brassieres (over their clothes of course) and we have seen young women strip to their underwear to slip into wedding dresses. New fashionable and uncommonly ugly shoes are here by the hundreds and seem irresistible to my wife. I always head to the nut and candy stall where I ignore the gummy worms and chocolate while I get a bag of roasted or candy covered almonds.
We always stop at the olive booth to choose our favorites plus a selection of olives that are unknown at home. I've always been tempted to buy something from the tea stand but I've never had the nerve to try the ones that are said to cure colds, stomach upsets, gout, warts, skin disease or ingrown toe nails.
Nearby Markets
There are many markets nearby and we often visit the ones in Nerja, Motril and Torre del Mar. Nerja's market used to be in the town center but is now in the streets a short walk away.
It's not as convenient for the people in the town, but it is very international and contains even more than it did before. Motril's market has also been moved from beside the market building and now covers several streets on the outskirts of town.
There are few tourists here and it is closer to the original old style markets. The one at Torre del Mar is where it has always been spread out along the main road and spilling into nearby streets. It seems to be bigger every year.
Flea Markets
Another type of market is the flea market or car boot sale as it is called by the Brits. They cater to shoppers looking for used items and typically offer antiques, tools, clothing, electronics, knick knacks, artwork, books, CD's etc. Everything is sold "as is" and may or may not work or be what you think it is. The merchants are a mix of permanent residents, ex-pats, backpackers and anyone with something to sell. There are often great bargains if you happen across something you want. Prices seem to be more flexible at these markets.
We prefer the street markets in Spain's smaller towns and cites. There are lots of markets in the larger cities; so many that there will be quite a few on the same day in different locations. They offer a wonderful selection of things, but they are crowded and are frequented by pickpockets.
The smaller markets are safer, more fun and easier to handle. Police are often on hand looking for unlicensed fly-by-night operators flogging knock-off watches, CDs, sunglasses or T shirts. Vendors display colorful pottery, flowers, long pants, short pants, shirts, pots, baby clothes, jewelry, honey, belts, purses and even new and used flamenco dresses. The dresses are always in demand since Spanish women love to dress up and attend a fiesta in full costume.
When you tire of the crowds, the hawkers and cacophony of sounds you may want to escape for a quiet lunch. We often leave our car wherever it is and walk to a local bar or beach restaurant to enjoy a cooling drink and a leisurely Spanish meal. This is a perfect way to relax as we consider what we have seen and the bargains we are sure we have just bought.

BEREA — Browns general manager Tom Heckert met the media Thursday morning for the final time before the three-day NFL Draft that begins next Thursday.
He didn't reveal the team's rankings or plans, but answered questions on a number of topics during the 40-minute news conference. Some highlights.
** Will the Browns take an offensive player at No. 6?
"I wouldn't assume that. I really wouldn't," Heckert said. "We have some holes to fill all over the place, on offense and defense. We're going to try to stick with our philosophy of drafting the best player."
** What's the team's biggest need?
"That's a good question," Heckert said. "I think we have a few of 'em."
** On the injury concerns surrounding Clemson defensive end Da'Quan Bowers (knee) and Alabama receiver Julio Jones (foot).
Heckert said both have cleared Cleveland's medical tests. Heckert said Jones improved his standing by running a 4.39-second 40-yard dash at the scouting combine despite having a stress fracture in his foot that later required surgery.
"It shows how tough the kid is," Heckert said.
** Ranking Jones and Georgia receiver A.J. Green, both considered possibilities at No. 6.
"It's up to each individual club. Both are very talented guys," Heckert said. "Both can run and catch. Both are kinda the same size, maybe one (Jones) runs a little faster. They're very similar. Not much difference.
"Either one's fine (in the West Coast offense)."
** Heckert reiterated that he's not as down on Cleveland's receiver group as some fans and media.
"We like these guys," he said. "Robo (Brian Robiskie) and Mohamed (Massaquoi) are good players.
"Last year, they didn't get a ton of opportunities. I think the West Coast offense will help them, it will at least get them the ball. We'll find out more about them this year than we did before.
"It's not as bleak as people think."
** Any chance of the Browns trading up to get into the top five?
"It's probably unlikely," Heckert said. "We have talked to teams ahead of us just to see. But we hate to give up picks."
** On the news that quarterback Colt McCoy is hosting receivers Massaquoi, Carlton Mitchell, Jordan Norwood and Joshua Cribbs in Austin, Texas, today to work out and run routes during the lockout.
"I think it's great," Heckert said. "To be honest with you, when we were in Philadelphia, it happened anyway.
"It's probably more publicized now. It's nice. If they don't, I don't think it's a big deal. They'll be ready when they come back, we'll have time."

Early Greek religion was a blend of the Achaean, Dorian, Minoan, Egyptian and the Asian cultures, and came about as a result of the mingling of these cultures. Their belief was that each city was under the protection of one particular god, who was worshiped with unique emphasis in that city. Athena is the goddess of Athens, Artemis is the god of Sparta, Aphrodite was worshiped at Corinth, Apollo worshiped at Delphi and Delos, and Zeus, the king of gods, was worshiped with special reverence at Olympia.
Paul traveled through Greece with Silas and after some trouble with the Jews for preaching the gospel, he was sent to Athens to wait for Silas and Timothy. (Acts 17 )
While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was greatly distressed to see that the city was full of idols. Acts 17:16
Paul wanted to present the gospel in a way that was relevant to the people so he chose the culture's dedication to religion.
"For as I walked around and looked carefully at your objects of worship, I even found an altar with this inscription: TO AN UNKNOWN GOD. Now what you worship as something unknown I am going to proclaim to you." Acts 17:23
Paul used that as his opening remark to tell the people about the salvation that comes from Christ. He didn't join in their customs and practices, but rather, he pulled something out from it. He wasn't trying to add another god to their extensive collection of gods. He was taking a step to change the culture and it's practices. He was introducing the Unknown God, Jesus Christ, to the people with the full intent of displacing all other gods, beliefs, and religious practices in the culture. Alistair Begg with Truth for Life stated it this way, "Becoming a Christian involves a radical transformation and a break from all non-Christian habits. Becoming a Christian does not mean simply adding a Jesus package to a lifestyle of our own choosing."
With the onset of Christianity, the Greek religion slowly became extinct. This happened because the believers turned away from the practices of the culture and taught new believers to do the same. Do we, as followers of Jesus Christ, do that in this culture? Do we try to displace any evil that sets itself up against Jesus, or do we accept it, tolerate it, and even embrace it while we set up our belief system right next to it?
"...and when the LORD your God has delivered them over to you and you have defeated them, then you must destroy them totally. ...for they will turn your sons away from following me...This is what you are to do to them: Break down their altars, smash their sacred stones, cut down their Asherah poles and burn their idols in the fire. For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession." Deuteronomy 7:2,4-6

I've got a two-dimensional Markov stochastic process $(X_t, Y_t)$ that runs on time interval $[0, t_f]$. I know the transition function (or the infintesimal generator, if you like) of this process. I'd like to condition it such that $X_t \ge 0$ on $[0, t_f]$ and reform my transition function accordingly.
Is there a general procedure by which this can be done? Or is more information on the behaviour of $(X_t, Y_t)$ necessary?

Looks like Pinterest, right?ReplyDelete
It looks just like Pinterest to me too... I guess there's not privacy settings on pinterest, but other than that it seems the same to me.ReplyDelete
I'd never heard of this. It does look like pinterest but the privacy setting really interests me. I'm always coming across things that I want to pin as presents for Christmas/birthdays etc but I can't because all my gift recipients follow my pinterest account! I can use this for my 'gift board' now. Thanks for the heads up.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousFebruary 10, 2012 at 9:29 PM
Agreed! I wish I could private pin on Pinterest. I think this one might make it easier to keep articles and things too, not just pictures, but I'm not sure.ReplyDelete
- Christine H.February 23, 2012 at 1:23 PM
At first I thought "Pinterest clone" too, but I was intrigued by the privacy settings so I checked it out... and got totally hooked! I really like the privacy and the fact that it's not just images. If I want to save an article or even a word doc or PDF I can just type a couple of words to appear where the image would be. Sometimes this is even more useful than an image is at jogging my memory and reminding me why I saved something.ReplyDelete

'90s kids, start your engines. Though talk of bringing the classic sitcom "Full House" back for some sort of revival series has floating around more than once over the last few years, the possibility of bringing some of your favorite characters back is now up in the air over at Warner Bros., according to TV Guide on Tuesday.
John Stamos (Uncle Jesse) is reportedly doing the spearheading for a revival series, as he owns a piece of the show and has tried to get reunion projects off the ground before, such as a feature film (both a reunion movie with original cast members and one in which different actors play them).
Jeff Franklin and Bob Boyett, the show's original creator and executive producer, respectively, are involved with the possible project and original cast members Candace Cameron Bure, Jodie Sweetin, Andrea Barber, Bob Saget, and Dave Coulier are all said to be on board or somehow involved. Should a revival series get off the ground by next year, a 2015 premiere would be coming 20 years after the show originally went off the air.
One of the recent hints at a possible return came early this year when Stamos, Saget, and Coulier all appeared on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live" and Stamos mentioned that they were working on "a twist on a sequel."
It's not as though there wouldn't be demand for a "Full House" redux; the show is still a favorite as far as sitcoms from the last two decades are concerned and has been pulling in some great ratings for Nick at Nite in reruns. Around 1.5 million viewers tune in for them on average, a 7 percent increase from 2013, and Cinema Blend notes that ratings in the past year have even beat out some primetime network series.
The last year or so has been a good one for "Full House" fans. Last summer, Jesse & The Rippers reunited for a one-night-only performance on "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon," featuring a mulleted Stamos and cameo appearances from Saget and Lori Loughlin. In January 2014, Stamos, Saget, and Coulier all appeared on "Late Night" in character, followed not too long after by the Bravo appearance and then a Super Bowl commercial for Dannon Oikos Greek Yogurt (which Stamos is a spokesperson for) including all three of them still--surprise--living in the same house.
If this news still has you jonesing for some classic '90s sitcoms, there's always the "Full House" reruns to keep you sustained, or perhaps try the upcoming Lifetime movie about the behind-the-scenes drama of "Saved By The Bell."

STS-123/Endeavour and ISS are flying in separate orbits again (Flight Day 15/16 for STS-123/1J/A)
After final preparations on both sides of the hatches (closed yesterday on ISS side at 5:51pm EDT), Endeavour undocked last night at 8:25pm, 29 min late, from PMA-2 (Pressurized Mating Adapter 2) after a total docked time of 11d 20h 36m. (For undocking, the station was turned from -XVV through ~180 deg to +XVV ZLV (+x-axis in velocity vector, z-axis in local vertical, i.e., flying Shuttle-leading again) at ~7:09pm, put briefly on free drift for the undocking, and then moded to 1J/A Stage attitude of +XVV TEA attitude.

What is Rahn saying about the 7 Dark Jedi at start of a duell
I come from Germany and cant understand it well what Rahn is saying about all 7 Dark Jedi. Well now, could someone tell me what he is saying? I would prefer the original text. I am very interessted what he is saying about them at the start of the Duells.
None replied to this..
I found some of those textes, hope u know what i mean.
Sariss: Of all the Dark Jedi I have met, Sariss is the one I can say... I fear.
Powerful in both the mental and physical arenas of the Force, she is a master, a perfectionist, quiet and reserved.
Boc: I cannot abide this creature named Boc. He is one of the few that actually uses two lightsabers in battle! Only a Dark Jedi can he be.
Jerec: His heavy brow overshadows the empty recesses that normally embrace eyes. Jerec has the uncanny ability to overshadow one's connection to the Force... like a dark cloud. A deep, empowering grasp of your will is what you need.
hope u can help me to find out what Rahn is saying about the other dark Jedi.
ok i have found a second one!
To the one called Maw: a bitter individual that loathes all and holds loyalty to few. A strong and formidable foe. For every quart of muscle, there is hatred. It is this hate that keeps his aging body strong.
for Maw
I believe you can find the sound files from within the gob files (use a program like container manager, aka ConMan to open them and extract the files to your desktop to listen to).
This part of the game was cool, as it added a little bit of depth to the character, and made sense for Rahn to help you, after all, he is a Jedi spirit!
have u got any links? I tried to find but there is no ConMan on google :s
Sorry I guess it is only nicknamed ConMan... it's actually called "Container Manager":
Scroll down you'll see it under "GOB"...
