How to heat a tent- safely?
So I was wondering if anyone here could think of a way to safely heat a tent for a prolonged period of time. Preferably without gas, electricity, or risk of fire.
I read a cool tip that suggested heating rocks by the campfire and wrapping them in towels and tucking them inside the tent to provide heat. Here's a helpful article on tent heaters: http://thecampingequipmentspot.com/camping-heater-electric-vs-propane/
Just to put an end to the heating problem:
Might be a bit on the costly side though but anyway.
Get diesel or petrol powered caravan heater.
They use around 150ml of fuel per hour.
Leave tank and heater unit outside and connect a standard heater hose to it that goes into the tent.
Reuires a battery but a small deep cycle one with a soloar panel would do the trick here, as an alternative you can always use a dual battery isolator in the car to charge the spare battery.
If the heater unit is fitted with a silencer and also put into a small hole or inside a polystyreren box a few feet away from the tent you can enjoy a warm tent even in the snow.
We were in college it was fall, or spring. Two inexpensive bags gave us versatility and cost less than two different rated bags. Ussually the second bag was padding and insulation from the ground, but it saved more than a few trips that started out moderate and dropped below freezing.
No heaters at camp Ronfinke, we always had two rectangular sleeping bags per person. In cold weather we put one inside the other with the zippers reversed.
This allows you to telescope them longer and bring the bag over your head and for xtra foot room. In warmer weather we slept in one on top of the other for padding.
Would be too easy to just use a sleeping bad rated for the climate and temp!?
Make a fire in the sand. get the sand pretty warm. Let the fire die. Bury it, and sleep on top. With or without a tent, it is cozy.
could you look at items like air activated heat packs,i have brought two packs for $2 at my chemist you would either need a few of them or a larger ones but the idea fits with no risk of danger and they do last about 8 hours
Yes, I know a way. It is, as far as I know, the only way, but is not promoted because it render's other products worthless by comparison. A simple positive pressure stove. Positive meaning air(oxygen) is brought in from outside the tent to feed the fire in the stove, which is otherwise sealed. It is brought in via two separate a tube's. One feeds the fire in the stove. and draws air in via convection created by the heat moving up thru the flu. The other is feed by a small fan forcing air from outside through a tube which coils around and around the heat source until hot and then is released onto the tent, with the same oxygen content it had when out side. I cannot seam to find one available for sale and am suspicious as to why that is the case. I will build one myself and will will be happy to forward to you my plans when I complete my project, though I suspect you would have no problem designing one for yourself.
You won't find many on sale as they are still consired a fire risk.
Just get yourself a gas fired camping shower that does not require an additional motor to pump the water and run a hose coils through the tent.
Nothing apart from getting wet can haapen inside the tent and securing a camp shower to a tree or car should be easy enough...
Please note these concerns with regard to the information I gave below. For Safety; Points of concern are as follows, 1-exit-point for a double wall flu 2- size of stove should be commensurate with size of tent 3- not easily knocked over, and if knocked over a safety device that immediately extinguishes heat source within stove. 3- thermostat capable of opening or closing heat-pipe bringing in air from outside to be heated and released into tent.4- something in tent capable of absorbing excess humidity (condensation) most likely to become a problem if heat is maintained for an extended period when it is cold outside. 5- obvious concerns associated with heat and melting your possibly very expensive tent. 6- weight of said device should you be packing it on your back. note; device I plan to design will be very light and rather small so materials may be cost prohibitive for some such as titanium alloys that can expand and contract without creating stress-points that could compromise safety. 7-type of fuel, (non-explosive if possible) preferably wood so no reason to pack in with you.
Catalytic heaters do give off CO so use a CO detector if you use one in case your vents collapse or become obstructed, say by a snow storm.
Tealights (small candles in an aluminum holder) in a baking pan work well also. Around 80 btu each. 20 gives you a good 1500 plus btu for about 3-4 hours. They come in packs of 100 or 140 at around 7 cdn. Vent and use a CO detector.
When wood abounds and you're up to it a tent fireplace (you need 2 welding blankets) works as well. Self venting, no CO hazard. Do a search. The guy who shows this is a true outdoorsman.
For quick no purchase n carry fuel heat, a wood gas camp stove. Uses twigs. Light it outside, let it burn clean inside if you have a diy stove vent (just like the one above your home stove but in the wall and with fire retardant material) then let it ember burn inside either way (stove vent closed to retain heat). Always on a flat rock and always with venting and a CO detector.
Forced hot air from an outside 'heat box'. This is complex, somewhat excessive considering some of the alernatives, may be considered heavy (though lighter than a full woodstove or ''cauchon") needs electricity and requires some extensive diy. My first prototype melted (I used wax as fuel which ended up igniting). I inevitably switched to tealights in a baking pan.
Stay warm!
For winter camping you want a smaller tent so there is less room to heat, I bought a tent made by NEMO, you don't want a dome tent for winter camping, they are to talk and have to much uneccessary room, and the lanterns won't warm them as well. My NEMO tent also is completely screened in at the top, with a cover that goes over the screen, so there aren't any vents at the top for the heat to go out of, the venting comes from the little space between the cover along the outside of the tent, so the heat stays in the tent pretty well. Me and my girlfriend, and we each have a UCO candle lantern beside us and that keeps us plenty warm in the winter. If we use our bigger tent we each bring out triple candle UCO lantern. Just light the candles in the lantern about an hour or so before, your going to sleep and keep the tent zipped up, and just let the UCO lanterns build some heat up in the tent, and then by the time you go in the tent to sleep it Will be pretty warm. like I said the triple candle UCO Candle lanterns put off a lot more heat then the single candle lanterns, but you would be suprised how much they actually warm the tent up. Just keep any vent flaps or whatever closed and you'll be warm.
I've always wondered if sterno's could be used for heat in a tent, because they burn clean, but UCO candle lantern solved that problem and is safe from catching fire...
I kept trying to figure out a way to do this to, and found 2 ways. 1.) If your staying at a campsite you could always get a spot with a power outlet and buy yourself a minatyre power heater. 2.) I bought a little candle lantern, that is safe to use for light and also heats the tent enough to keep you warm. I first bought 2 of the candle lanterns, at REI, and later I found a candle lantern that held 3 candles and put of more heat. You would be suprised how warm 2 candles can gets your tent up. The lantern is just a safe housing for the candle to burn in without having to worry about it falling over and catching fire, it also has a chain to hang from the top of the tent. Look up UCO CANDLE LANTERN. they really do warm up the tent, especially if you have the one that holds 3 candles. You can buy the regular candles for it that burn for 9gra, or the beeswax ones that cost a little more but burn 15 hrs. Best 20$ I've spent !!
The second best way to heat a tent is to sleep with a big Alaskan Malamute in the tent with you. ;)
My dad wouldn't spring for a Winter type sleeping bag, so I was kind of "stuck out in the cold". But my Scout Master told me to remove all my clothes except underwear, while I am in the sleeping bag, but keep them in there with me and zip it up tight.
This may sound strange, but the next day, while everyone else had sleep IN their clothes, sweated some (and so were damp) during the night, it was a bit cold that night....but the next day I was toasty warm all day :-) Now, I recommend then, getting a GOOD warm winter style sleeping bag, and if you try the little trick I just mentioned, the next day will be VERY pleasant. The rest of the troup were cold all day long.
This is only advisable if you have a decent expectation of privacy however.
Over the years I've probably spent 6 months of nights sleeping in a winter bag, in below freezing conditions. A warm bag is toasty!
The "sleep naked" thing is a myth. A persistent myth, though. One that people swear is true (from my experience, it's not). I can see why it might feel warmer if your clothes are damp, and you're a heavy sleeper (you aren't effected by the sleep cycle drop in body temperature).
Wait until you're below zero (F)--you'll opt for clothes. I've had nights where I wore nearly every stitch of clothing I had--fleece jackets, down coat, two pairs of fleece pants, etc. Wearing sweaty, damp clothes in the bag has one advantage--you might be chilled for an hour or two, but the clothes will dry. A real advantage over a long week of backpacking.
It's also normal, damp clothing or not, to wake up with the outside of your bag soaked. Hence the debate over synthetic vs. down bags...
This tip and having a good ground barrier will keep ya toasty. I keep a couple think wool blankets in my car for emergencies and have used them to boost the insulation of my sleeping bag in a pinch.
It worked wonders for me. Everyone else in my troop was cold all day long, and I had a fairly light coat to use and wasn't cold most of the morning that day.
But I wasn't advocating NUDE sleeping, but rather down far enough to keep one from getting all sweated up
If you get too hot, you can also unzip the bag, or use it as a blanket and lay right on the sleeping pad. Or wear the bag up to your arms. Or my favorite--just unzip the bottom, and stick your bare feet out ;-).
I learned to not shed too many clothes. After a ten mile hike with a pack, my metabolism was usually "on high" for several hours, but it would crash in the early morning, and feeling cold at 3 AM was often the result (that, and temps drop overnight). So in would come my feet, and on went the the mummy bag hood...
I won't even mention the best trick to stay warm in the bag...
If your fellow scouts slept well, I'd think their clothes would dry out after a little activity. They'd be pretty cranky at breakfast, though.
Maybe you're just a natural outdoorsman.
Scouts back in my day didn't have (or didn't believe in) sleeping pads. What a huge difference they make--to have insulation between you and the cold ground...
A Baker with the flap open?
I've spent many nights in WPA-era lean-tos. They proliferate in the Adirondacks in upper NY. Not as warm as a small tent, for sure.
Years ago they had fire pits, and you could feel radiant heat from a roaring fire in the lean-to. They kept the pits at least 15 feet from the lean-tos, due to the fire hazard. They weren't much use during the night. Fifteen or twenty years ago the fire pits all disappeared--too much eco damage from firewood scavenging.
It worked for me camping on a glacier.
Investing in a decent bag and roll-mat is far better in the long term, not just safer than a heater, but easier to pack and lighter to carry (you'll be carrying the bag and mat anyway, so the heater is extra weight).
If you're in the tent during the day, wear warm clothes (layers), and the more people in the tent, the warmer it is in there.
Might be time to share an old army trick....
In the cold winter times a tent be can scary, you wake up and everything is frozen rock hard.
That's why you should keep your clothes and boots inside the sleeping bag....
Anyway, if you camp alone it usually means you have a fire as well to keep you warm.
Once really good heating option is to have an overhanging wal behind the tent and the fire in front of the tent.
Can be a rock wall or makeshift with some tree branches.
Other option for colder temperatures is to put some rocks in the fire itself to heat them up good.
Have the tent pegs loose amd a suitable hole next to the tent.
Drop the hot rocks, cover with dry sand and slide the tent back over the hole.
The hole should be deep enough so you have at least 30cm of sand on top of the rocks, otherwise it might get too hot for the plastic - try before melting a hole in the floor ;)
We had an old piece of thick canvas to cover the sand as an added protection, the rocks keep the tent warm for up to 5 hours before it starts to cool down again, you get more if the hole is insulated with dry sand all around.
Heating rocks in a fire and keeping them in a safe place inside of the tent might be an option. They stay hot for a long time. If you want to do some extra work you can also bury them below your sleeping bag and they keep the ground nice and warm. Far North Bushcraft and Survival (youtube) has some good information on this.
With satisfactory insulation you shouldn't need to heat the tent - that what a good sleeping bag is for.
IF it is a Marquee then forced hot air is probably the best way to go. or IR patio heaters (Electric)
+1 on the 2nd.
They are inexpensive at about 60 for single burner ones to 120 and up for double burner fancy ones. The expensive part is the disposable propane cylinders they run on.
Your next option is to invest in a sleeping bag system. If you plan on doing lots of camping you can get a system that is versatile one that will work in summer and winter months. (like a used military 3 bag system) But even a sleeping bag rated to +32 will be more than adequate for 0 degree weather with a blanket or sleeping bag liner installed.
Sleeping bags are priced on their degree rating as well as thickness/weight. A bigger bag will be cheaper than an ultra thin one but will be heavier.
Like goodheart said sleep in your underwear or cloths that you normally sleep in at home. then change when you wake up so you dont get cold. If you have some pajamas to sleep in you wont be frozen cold when you have to go to the bathroom at 3am. cause you will be when your just in your tighty whities.
Sweat is your worst enemy, you want to be slightly uncomfortably cool, but not warm or youll sweat. Change your socks to prevent trench foot

What a nice summer dessert! Used this recipe as kind of a guideline, and it turned out very well. For the yogurt, I used a 7oz container Greek yogurt and 1 1/2 cups lowfat regular yogurt. Substituted a sweet white wine for the vodka, added 3/4 tsp vanilla extract, and reduced the sugar by about 2 Tbsp. I found that the small amount froze very quickly in my ice cream maker (only 20 minutes) and became very firm after being in the freezer for a couple hours. I would suggest removing the frozen yogurt from the freezer at least 10 minutes before serving. Can't wait to make this again.
This is good frozen yogurt!!! It is almost like sorbet because of the amount of fruit vs dairy. I used kirsch and I threw in a few raspberries that I had extra along with the strawberries. Thanks for the recipe!!
This is GREAT. I did modify the recipe a bit, but same basic ingredients...I used vanilla flavored vodka, 1 tablespoon. I also used 1/4 cup of Splenda and 1 tsp of Stevia herb to sweeten, in place of the sugar. AND I used 2 1/2 cups of fat-free greek yogurt to make it a bit thicker. This made my ice cream maker overflow just a tiny bit, but no biggie. Yum, thanks for posting!

Adventures in Eating Local Seafood - Acadian Redfish and Squid Ink
At the door to the Black Trumpet Bistro in Portsmouth, N.H., we were welcomed by a smiling hostess who directed us to sit at one of the large tables set up for the evening. We were there to eat five delicious courses of fresh seafood and talk about Community Supported Fisheries (CSF) as part of the first ever National CSF Summit. What made this dinner really special was that all of the seafood on our plates came from people sitting around the table.

Does work with Superfish, and NextGen jquery on the same page as well as cufon text replacement. I am sure there are some I will encounter that will conflict eventually...lol
Other than the options to style in use. I have looked a little into the plugin files, but not as deep since I cannot get one attribute to work.
I would love to know if I can apply border-radius (rounded corners) to the Easing Slider and if so, what html tag do I need to style in my CSS to do this?
Other than that... thank you. I will be writing a review at WPAddict. :) (gave you 5 stars in the plugin repository.)

I look at this season and remember quite a few times, we got tossed around on the right side of the line. But most of which happened on the offensive tackle position. The few times i remember it happening on the OG is earlier on in the season when we were running it like crazy, or when alex drops back on a three step drop and doesn't get the ball out or when playing against probowl talent like Darnell Dockett and others.
But anyways the point is...we have talent at the OG position. And if u want an immediate upgrade at guard you go get a free agent. Why waste a top pick on a potential bench player for the 2010 season?! IMO, if coached right both starting guards for the 49ers can be solid from here on out. The position that needs to be corrected is right tackle...like immediately!

Bush Haters
Okay, we're all Bush haters here. No one here but us liberal ducks, quack quack quack.
Reading nothing but Americablog, DailyKos, Atrios, and, um, Slog, and other liberal blogsfinally we have a the left-wing echo chamber that can compete with the right-wing echo chamber!can warp your take on national politics, and give you the impression that everyone out there agrees with you about Bush and the GOP. Bush is dangerous! He's incompetent! He's unpopular! But if everyone agrees with you, why is Bush president? Why is there even a question that Dems will re-take the House and Senate in November (go, Darcy Burner, go!), or the White House in 2008?
So as not to lose perspective, it's important to check in at conservative blogs every once in a while, just to see what the right-wing echo chamber is saying about Bush. Take this guy, an arch-conservative if ever there was one, writing on the National Review's website, an arch-conservative publication if ever there was one:
I voted for President Bush twice, and contributed to his campaign twice, but held my nose when I did it the second time. I don't consider myself a Republican any longer. Thanks to this Administration and the Republicans in Congress, the Republican Party today is the party of pork-barrel spending, Congressional corruption and, I know folks on this web site don't want to hear it, but deep down they know it's true foreign and military policy incompetence. Frankly, speaking of incompetence, I think this Administration is the most politically and substantively inept that the nation has had in over a quarter of a century. The good news about it, as far as I'm concerned, is that it's almost over.

Hearing canceled for SpanosJanuary 30,2013Hearing canceled for Spanos
A hearing to weigh the evidence to hold accused murderer Alex Spanos in jail without the option of bail has been canceled.
Spanos, 24, pleaded innocent last week to a charge of second-degree murder in a case involving the death of 17-year-old Rutland High School student Carly Ferro.
Ferro was killed last fall in a crash on Cleveland Avenue in the city that police say was caused by Spanos who was allegedly huffing from an aerosol can to get high while driving.
Because Spanos is facing a potential lifetime jail sentence, prosecutors asked that he be held in jail without the option of bail until his trial. While Spanos has been incarcerated since the Sept. 26 crash on $200,000 bail, Spanos attorney requested a hearing that would have required the prosecution to reveal enough evidence to warrant holding him in jail.
But the hearing, scheduled to take place Tuesday, was canceled by Spanos defense attorney who withdrew the request for a hearing on Monday.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...

Apple hearts Autoblog
You may remember my giddiness last September when we learned that Autoblog had been seen on the jumbotron behind Steve Jobs in the latest keynote for Apple. While demoing some cool new stuff that Apple's Mail program would be able to do when the new OS comes out, one could see the subject of a few emails were Autoblog post titles. Today we found out why they were there, and as a few commenters speculated back then, Apple's new Mail program will be able to incorporate RSS feeds. The company's latest Stevenote was today, and Autoblog has been featured front and center again in the demo video highlighting Mail's new features. Click this link to visit Apple's demo page for Leopard, the newest version of its OSX operating system. Click the "Watch the Demo" link for Mail and wait until the end when Autoblog gets a much appreciated free plug from his Steveness. Thanks Apple!

Its not a question of easy ! Its a question of arrogance .... yourIt is a bad idea and because many users that migrate over view root as just another user with more power and fewer nags it is a good idea to set system defaults that encourage them to operate the user correctly. Others will follow suit. Quite honesty it doenst matter what "you" can live with. The goals of defaults is to encompass the needs and preferences of the largest aspect of the user base. I can respect that you think the changes will make your life less convienant but it will in fact be a good change for most users, especially as more migrate over from microsoft based OSes.
argument is that because you know its a bad idea people should not be
able to do it. Ok - I could live with a warning .... even better if it
only happens the first time root logs in, but disabling root logins in X
is only going to cause problems, unless you can get every other distro
to follow suite .....
novice user 1 - "how do I configure N", novice user 2 - "log in as root and run this GUI tool"Blind leading the blind? I dont care how convienant the distro is this will cause trouble.
novice user 1 - "It wont let me"
novice user 2 - "My machine does ?"

Listen to a Nevada State Senator Come Out of the Closet During a Debate Over Gay Marriage
<span>"I'm black. I'm gay."</span>
Last night, the Nevada state Senate voted 12–9 to repeal the state's eleven-year-old Constitutional ban on gay marriage. During the debate over the resolution, Democrat Kelvin Atkinson announced to his colleagues that he was, in fact, gay. (And also black, in case nobody had noticed.) Video doesn't appear to be available, but here's the audio of his emotional remarks.

More minions? 'Despicable Me 2' says yes — fortunately
After witnessing Gru transform from a super-villain to a super-dad with a Play-Doh heart at the end of 2010's "Despicable Me," there was just no way there wouldn't be a sequel.
And "Despicable Me 2," which opens in theaters Wednesday, is better than the original — but not for its storytelling. The 98-minute movie replaces things like plot details with what the audience is clearly more interested in seeing: minions, adorable daddy-daughter moments (Gru, voiced by Steve Carell, dressing up as a "Gruzinklebell" princess for Agnes' birthday) — and of course, for Gru to find the girls a mommy. »Read Full Article

I am trying to adjust the format dropdown in TinyMCE - I am tired of hacking the core code and am trying to do this with a plugin.
I have spent alot of time looking around at plugins and forums to try and code this myself, but I am stuck (and am still learning PHP etc)! The parameters for this are 'theme_advanced_blockformats', ideally I'd like to alter the parameters in wp-includes/js/tinymce/themes/advanced/editor_template.js where it says:
['h1', '{$lang_theme_h1}'],
['h2', '{$lang_theme_h2}'],
to something like:

While building the Class Designer we envisioned two scenarios where a developer would create a class diagram for an existing project.
In the first scenario, the diagrams are short-lived. In this case, a developer may want to gain understanding of some piece of code that they didn't develop. So, to begin with they auto generate the diagram from the code. Unless it is a simple project, it is likely that the diagram is cluttered because of the number of classes and their members. As one team member put it, they would want the ability to quickly hide information on the generated diagram (probably coarse-grained) to reduce the clutter, so that they can "see the wood from the trees". Here, the diagram they create is probably going to get thrown away or kept only for the developer who created it to quickly understand the piece of the project they are interested in.
In the second scenario, the diagrams are long-lived. In this case, the developer is spending a lot of time and effort in creating the diagram and laying out the shapes. Here the diagram is intended to be part of the documentation of the code and to communicate the design to others. Here they probably want fine-grained mechanisms to fine tune the diagram so that the diagrams contain the right information that they want to communicate.
We provide a few mechanisms to reduce clutter by hiding information.
The motivation here is to give enough flexibility to the customer so that they can build the class diagram to suit their needs.

Autopsy Reveals Mary Kennedy Was on Three Antidepressants When She Died
But no alcohol.
Despite a public history of alcohol abuse — including one drunk driving incident in 2010 — the official autopsy of Mary Richardson Kennedy's body found no alcohol in her system, just several antidepressants. This partially backs up the official Kennedy line, which is that she was depressed and perhaps even suffered from borderline personality disorder.

[4.2] LineSeries highlights line and markers together. Feature to split it.
Currently, a LineSeries highlights a line itself and markers together. It would be nice to have a config option not to highlight a line, i.e. highlight only markers.
A config option can be called "highlightLine" and here is a possible override.
Possible override
Ext.chart.series.Line.override({ highlightItem: function() { var me = this, line = me.line; Ext.chart.series.Line.superclass.highlightItem.apply(this, arguments); if (line && !me.highlighted && me.highlightLine !== false) { // added the third condition if (!('__strokeWidth' in line)) { line.__strokeWidth = parseFloat(line.attr['stroke-width']) || 0; } if (line.__anim) { line.__anim.paused = true; } line.__anim = new Ext.fx.Anim({ target: line, to: { 'stroke-width': line.__strokeWidth + 3 } }); me.highlighted = true; } } });Object.NET

These were some kicky beanies, lol! Great (and super-simple) way to dress up canned pintos. I used some smoked serrano chile powder for this. BTW, these made awesome refrieds, too -- spicy and so creamy. Thanks for posting! Made for The Honeys for ZWT8
Great charro beans! Fairly spicy with a nice texture. I did drain my beans before adding the water and they came out great. Enjoyed these - thanks for sharing the recipe! Made for ZWT8, Chefs gone WILD!
Yum! I don't know that we've ever had EPL in Washington, so I've never tried the original. This however, was wonderful, and very easy to make. The only change I might consider is to add some garlic and onion, both of which complement beans beautifully. Made for ZWT8.

The Trumpet Child
The dreamily gorgeous music Ohio couple Karin Bergquist and Linford Detweiler have been making together for over a decade and a half was summed up on a best-of album, Discount Fireworks, earlier this year. So it's a good time for a fresh start, which the duo makes on The Trumpet Child by reaching back to the roots of American country and jazz for inspiration. The wry "If a Song Could Be President" playfully imagines Emmylou Harris as a U.S. ambassador and John Prine as head of the FBI; let's save a spot in the cabinet for Over the Rhine.

The Texas Governor Killed a Coyote; But Did He Break the Law?
If you're a fan of Texas governor Rick Perry, you've likely become a bigger fan after learning that he shot and killed a coyote with a handgun while he was jogging down in Austin. If you're not a fan, well, we're guessing the news probably isn't going to inspire you to send in a big check to his reelection campaign.
According to the AP:
Perry says he needed just one shot from his laser-sighted pistol to take down a coyote that was menacing his dog during an early morning jog in an undeveloped area near Austin.
Perry told The Associated Press he sometimes carries his pistol, loaded with hollow-pointed bullets, when he jogs on trails because he's scared of snakes — and that he'd seen coyotes in that area.
When the coyote came out of the brush toward his daughter's labrador retriever puppy on a February jog, he charged it and shot it with his .380 Ruger pistol.
"Don't attack my dog or you might get shot . . . if you're a coyote," Perry said.
Click here for the AP story on the incident.
But here's our question: Is what Perry did legal?
In this article, out Wednesday, the Houston Chronicle looks into it.
An Austin City ordinance prohibits firing handguns within city limits, with some exceptions, according to the Chronicle. Another ordinance says in the city limits may not knowingly shoot, kill, or hunt a wild animal.
The issue, it seems, will likely turn on whether Perry was inside the city limits when he fired the shot. Zoning records, according to the Chron, indicate that Perry's rental home is within the city limits.
But hold on, says Perry's office. Perry spokesman Mark Miner cited a section of the Health and Safety Code that says a coyote that is about to attack domestic animals may be killed by a person witnessing the attack.
"If he had to do it again, he would," Miner said.

John "Navajo Code Talker" Brown, Jr
Dec. 24, 1921
Apache County
Arizona, USA
May 21, 2009
San Juan County
New Mexico, USA
Original Code Talker dies - John Brown Jr. was member of first top-secret group.
WINDOW ROCK — John Brown Jr., 88, one of the original 29 U.S.M.C. WWII Code Talkers and a former Navajo Tribal councilman, died Wednesday morning.
Flags have been ordered to be flown at half-staff by President Joe Shirley beginning Thursday in Brown's honor.
A community meeting is scheduled Thursday at 6:30 at the Crystal Chapter House, the president's office stated. Funeral arrangements are pending.
"Today, with sadness, we heard of the passing of Mr. John Brown Jr., one of the original 29 Navajo Code Talkers and one of the Navajo Nation's great warriors," Shirley said. "For so long, these brave men were the true unsung heroes of World War II, shielding their valiant accomplishments not only from the world but from their own families.
The recognition and acknowledgment of their great feats came to them late in life but, for most, not too late. These heroes among us are now a very precious few, and we, as a nation, mourn their loss. We offer our deepest condolences to the family of Mr. John Brown Jr."
Brown was born Dec. 24, 1921, in Chinle, near Canyon de Chelly to the late Nonabah Begay and the late John Brown. His mother died two years ago at the age of 102.
Brown attended Chinle Boarding School and graduated in 1940 from Albuquerque Indian School. He was playing basketball when he heard about the bombing at Pearl Harbor, said his son Frank Brown.
"Sometime after that he remembered a number of Marine recruiters started talking to the young Navajo boys," Frank Brown said. Brown ended up going to Fort Wingate to the military installation.
His father remembered being signed up, sworn in and given his physical right then and there, Frank Brown said. Brown was immediately sent to Camp Pendleton for basic training.
"They weren't allowed to go home to say goodbye to their family or write letters," Frank Brown said.
"At some phase in their basic training, they were taken into one big room and a commandant told them they were all there for a special reason, and they were to devise a code in their language," Frank Brown said. "The boys were left there in the room and they didn't know what the heck to do. But they devised the code using names of animals and mammals to describe what would go with the alphabet."
That code consisted of translations for 211 English words and was later expanded to 411 words, according to the president's office. The code also included Navajo equivalents for the letters in the English alphabets so the Code Talkers could spell out names and locations. The code and the Code Talkers would help end World War II.
Navajo Code Talkers participated in battles in the Pacific from 1942 to 1945. Frank Brown said his father served in four major battles at Tarawa, Saipan, Tinian and Guadalcanal. The code was not declassified until 1968.
Brown was one of the original 29 Code Talkers presented with the Congressional Gold Medal by President George W. Bush on July 26, 2001 — 56 years following World War II.
At the presentation at the U.S. Capitol Rotunda in Washington, Brown said that it was an honor to be there representing his fellow distinguished Code Talkers.
"I enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1942, not to become a Code Talker — that came later — but to defend the United States of America in the war against the Japanese emperor.
My mother was afraid for my safety, so my grandfather told her to take one of my shoes, place an arrowhead in it, take it to the mountain called Two Little Hills, and go there every day to pray that I would remain safe. Maybe she was more successful than she imagined because the Marine Corps soon had the Navajo Marines develop a secret code using our language. My comrade and I volunteered to become Navajo radio operators, or Code Talkers," Brown said at the presentation.
"Our precious and sacred Navajo language was bestowed upon us, not a nation, but a holy people. Our language is older than the Constitution of the United States. I'm proud that, at this point in American history, our native language and the code will developed came to the aid of our country, saving American lives and helping the other U.S. armed forces ultimately to defeat the enemies.
"After the original 29 Code Talkers, there are just five of us that live today: Chester Nez, Lloyd Oliver, Allen Dale June, Joe Palmer and myself. We have seen much in our lives. We have experienced war and peace. We know the value of freedom and democracy that this great nation embodies. But our experience has also shown us how fragile these things can be and how we must stay ever vigilant to protect them, as Code Talkers, as Marines.
"We did our part to protect these values. It is my hope that our young people will carry on this honorable tradition as long as the grass shall grow and water shall flow," Brown said.
President Richard Nixon awarded Navajo Code Talkers a special certificate in appreciation for their patriotism, resourcefulness and courage in 1971. They were included in the Bicentennial Parade in Washington July 4, 1976.
The U. S. Senate passed a bill declaring August 14 National Code Talkers Day in May 1982.
Frank Brown said his father lived a hard life, first training as a welder, then becoming a journeyman and master carpenter and cabinetmaker.
He was one of the veterans who returned to Navajo land and helped to build the Navajo government by serving as a member of the Navajo Tribal Council from 1962 to 1982. He also served three terms as Crystal Chapter president.
"He was always active in politics," Frank Brown said. "He was a wonderful speaker."
Brown began a second career as a traditional counselor for the tribe's Division of Social Services, driving 130 miles to Chinle and back each day.
After that, he went on a lecture tour speaking about the Navajo Code Talkers around the country and becoming active in the Navajo Code Talkers Association, his son said.
"Dad was also a traditional practitioner, constantly learning the traditional way of life but at the same time he was always active in the Mormon Church," Frank Brown said.
Brown is survived by his wife Loncie Polacca Brown and his children Dorothy Whilden, Preston Brown, Everett Brown, Virgil Brown and Frank Brown. His other children were the late Dale Brown and the late Ruth Ann McComb.

Posen Says Major Central Banks Should Step Up Policy Easing
Bank of England policy maker Adam Posen called on central banks from Europe to the U.S. to be more aggressive in combating lackluster economic growth and inflation.
As he prepares to leave the U.K. central bank today, Posen said the Bank of England should "more actively" consider buying assets other than gilts, the Federal Reserve should pursue more quantitative easing and the European Central Bank should intervene to reduce bond yields in Spain and Italy.
Posen steps down after three years as a member of the Monetary Policy Committee, having led the charge for expanding monetary stimulus in the U.K. His pitch for central banks to do even more runs counter to the warning of some officials and analysts that fresh asset purchases would have limited economic impact.
"If the ECB and the Fed and Bank of England just continue to try to straight-up meet their mandates it would lead right away to more policy activism," Posen told Bloomberg Television's Michael McKee yesterday at a conference of central bankers in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
The Bank of England is right to be "open to" more asset purchases if needed by the economy and should also look to buy corporate bonds or securitized business loans to "more directly address the shortfalls in the British credit system," Posen told reporters at the symposium.
Judging Success
The U.K. central bank's Monetary Policy Committee next meets Sept. 6, two months after increasing its quantitative easing target by 50 billion pounds ($79 billion). It said this month it will assess "other potential policy options" as it reviews the impact of its funding for lending plan to boost credit.
Posen said it's "premature" to judge the success of that plan.
He said he doesn't see "any particular advantage" in cutting interest rates because more quantitative easing can achieve the same result and it has been argued that market structures could be damaged as borrowing costs near zero.
"We believe QE is largely substitutable for cutting rates," Posen said. "It's not a perfect substitute, but it roughly does the same thing."
As he prepares to return to the U.S. to head the Washington-based Peterson Institute for International Economics, Posen said the Fed should introduce another round of bond purchases known as quantitative easing given that U.S. inflation is low and unemployment is too high.
Fed Mandate
"What definition of the Fed's mandate do you have that doesn't say you should be trying to respond to this," he said. "It's not that easing is always the answer, it's that sufficient ease is hard to achieve when we're in this kind of situation and you've got to keep going until you get to that sufficient ease."
Fed Chairman Ben S. Bernanke, who said last month a third asset-purchase program was an option, has an opportunity to update his policy outlook today in a speech at the symposium.
While the Fed is studying the U.K.'s program to boost credit to companies and households, Posen said the program may not be suitable because the U.S. banking system is in better shape than the U.K.'s and commercial lending is less of a problem.
Posen praised suggestions for the Fed to better outline what it is trying to achieve, saying he had sympathy with Chicago Fed President Charles Evans's proposal that the Fed shouldn't raise interest rates until the unemployment rate falls below 7 percent or inflation rises above 3 percent.
Providing Baseline
"It's not about the number, it's about providing a baseline to which the central bank can be held accountable and people have a way of talking to each other," he said.
Turning to the ECB, Posen said bond yields in Spain and Italy are out of line with economic fundamentals and it's within the central bank's mandate to correct that, perhaps by buying the debt and setting yield caps.
ECB President Mario Draghi's decision to withdraw from the Jackson Hole conference suggests the ECB is working on a plan ahead of the Sept. 6 meeting of its Governing Council, he said.
"It is difficult if not impossible to justify their long bond rates being as high as they are," Posen said. "It is entirely within a central bank's mandate and capabilities to deal with that. They should be intervening."
Posen recalled that the Hong Kong Monetary Authority bought stocks during the Asian financial crisis in 1998 to temper what it perceived to be a "generalized panic" and ended up making a profit.
"Arguably that's what you could get in Italian and Spanish bond markets," he said. "People's expectations are reset and suddenly those bonds are down 150 basis points and you can sell them back," Posen said, referring to yields.
While critics say the ECB would undermine its credibility and independence from politics by buying sovereign bonds, Posen said the real threat to its standing would be "running a policy that seems to willfully ignore your mandate, seems to play politics or in the extreme leads to very bad outcomes."

Take a lemon, cut it in half (use one half for each side), then squeeze the lemon all over your mat. Lemon has long been used as a cleaning product for pretty much everything. Lemons are acidic and provide antibacterial and antiseptic properties for cleaning. Added bonus: they smell pretty good!
Then take a sponge with a rough edge, cover it in soap and water (any of your favorite organic soaps are a great option), and sponge down your mat.
Lastly, using the sponge with just water, clear off all of the soap, flip your mat and repeat on the other side.
Towel your mat off (preferably with something lint free) for expedited drying.
Super-easy way to clean your yoga mat with ingredients from your home, AND it dries in no time!

NYSE's Leibowitz Says Exchanges Need Uniform Rules
Last week's stock plunge underscores the need for uniform halts at all trading venues during periods of market stress, according to NYSE Euronext Chief Operating Officer Larry Leibowitz.
Leibowitz, in prepared congressional testimony today, defended the NYSE's decision to slow trading in some stocks by saying the exchange never "stepped away from the marketplace during the crisis." A "spasm of selling" spread through exchanges after the NYSE paused trading in certain stocks to match buy and sell orders, according to Leibowitz's remarks for the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Capital Markets.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell as much as 9.2 percent on May 6, its biggest tumble since the crash of 1987, before paring losses and closing down 3.2 percent. About $700 billion was erased from American equity markets over an eight-minute span after the NYSE took actions to slow trading, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"The exact succession of events and what precipitated them remain unclear," Leibowitz said. The May 6 plunge shows that regulators need "to consider steps to avoid the types of extreme volatility our markets experienced that day."
Heads of the biggest U.S. trading venues will submit plans to the Securities and Exchange Commission this week for shutting down stock markets and curbing trading in individual companies that have suffered significant declines, according to two people familiar with the matter. NYSE-Euronext, Nasdaq OMX Group Inc., Bats Global Markets Inc. and CBOE Holdings Inc. are negotiating the threshold at which trading should stop, the people said.
Trades Canceled
The May 6 plunge pushed share prices of companies including Accenture Plc and Exelon Corp. to pennies. Nasdaq announced it would cancel trades on all exchanges that were more than 60 percent above or below prices at 2:40 p.m. New York time.
At a meeting yesterday of SEC Chairman Mary Schapiro and the heads of exchanges, participants discussed how best to define false trades and agreed to set uniform thresholds at which exchanges would cancel trades, the people said.
Leibowitz, who will testify with Schapiro, Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Gary Gensler and other exchange executives, said trading venues need to iron out a plan for re-opening markets after trading halts. Decisions to re-start trading in a stock should be made by the market where the company has its primary listing, he said.

text: Voice Over IP (VOIP): A Technology Whose Time Has Come09/17/2009 - A consultant friend of mine prompted me to look into VOIP a couple of weeks ago. He asked if I knew anything about it, and when I told him that I knew very little, he told me that he was looking into it and considering changing his phone system over from his current PBX system to a VOIP system.This piqued my interest enough for me to start looking into various companies and to find out what options were available. I quickly assembled a list of companies--some recommended, some I had already heard about--and began to navigate the confusing waterways that are VOIP.Today it's a little over a week into the saga, and I'm happy to say that I have both of my lines switched over to VOIP, and all of my phones in my office are working over VOIP. In a few days I'll be calling Bellsouth and cancelling phone service, for the first time since I was 18 years old. I've gone with a company that has been excellent to deal with; they've helped me with configuration issues all along the way, and I'm extremely pleased with their customer service. More on that in a bit.Setting up and using VOIP is not difficult; however, there are a few things that are different from what you're used to, and these were a little bit confusing to me at first.To begin with, when you buy VOIP service, you will need a device to take the signal from the Internet and allow you to make calls. There are two ways to do this: the first method is to buy an IP phone, which looks like a regular telephone except that it is designed to take a signal from your broadband router and not from standard phone lines. The common model is made by Linksys; prices vary, although some companies offer significant discounts to their customers.The second method for using VOIP is to get a line adapter; this is what I've done. I bought two small boxes from my provider; each is 3 inches square and an inch thick, and has ethernet and phone jacks on the back of it. Using this device, you can connect to your broadband router and then plug in a standard telephone handset, and you're immediately in business. This is what I've done; I have 2 VOIP adapters plugged into the phone wiring in my office--I just plugged into each of the adapters and then ran these wires to a wall jack in my office, and now all of the 2-line phones in my office, including my cordless phones, work on VOIP.Here's a small caveat: if you use static IP addresses as I do (most of you don't unless you're hosting a server of some kind), you'll need to configure the adapters with your static IP addresses. If you're using static IPs, you're probably familiar with configuring servers or routers with IP addresses, so this won't scare you; it's not hard at all. To configure the Linksys adapters that I have, I simply set the adapters to use a static instead of dynamic IP, entered IP address, router gateway address, subnet mask, and DNS, and I was ready to go.VOIP systems are loaded with great calling features. With the system that I'm using, I have callerID, call-forwarding, call blocking, find me (the system calls my phones one at a time until it finds me--if it fails it goes to voice-mail), robust voice-mail, including multiple messages for different scenarios, anonymous call blocking, follow me (easily program your VOIP number to forward to your current location), and much more. I can see my messages online or have each voice-mail recording emailed to me; I can fax from the web portal or by using email; there are so many features I can't possibly remember them all.So who did I decide to use as my carrier? I researched for a while, came up with a short list of five companies, including Vonage, RingCentral, 8x8, and a few others. I quickly weeded out Vonage, partly because I was put off by the pushy salesperson and pricey service plans, but also because the person with whom I spoke didn't seem to be willing to help me to understand how all of this works.I ended up wth RingCentral, for several reasons: their prices are very reasonable and comparable to the others I researched; their feature set was very complete and I was impressed with their online portal. Being a programmer who writes web portals every day, I'm particularly aware of well-designed online web applications, and theirs is very easy to use.The main selling point for RingCentral was their customer service. Now, after calling them a few times with setup questions, I'm even more enamored with their support personnel; they speak clear English, are very friendly, have been consistently knowledgeable (with one exception), and have been easy to reach on the phone--usually within 30 seconds. There was one question that I had where I got misinformed, and this was by one of their support people when I spoke to someone else the next day, he corrected the previous person's misinformation. I was told by the first tech person that I would not be able to use my phone adapter with all the phones in my office, that the voltage wouldn't support a network of phones. However, this has proven to be patently false; I have at least a half-dozen handsets all throughout my office, and they all work flawlessly, including my cordless phones.How much am I saving? My phone bill will drop by half, and this will include having unlimited long-distance now instead of paying by the minute as I was with Bellsouth/AT&T.How does it sound? Wonderful. I can't tell the difference. If you'd like to try it out, go to THIS PAGE and click the "Click to Call" button--it's a free call.
