There is Apex and TCI
If you think Obama is that bad did Bush really do any better to the OP?? And if you do there really is no discussion here.
I gave up on both parties, there just looking to screw US...
That is sad but so true, had me laughing.
I love it how the heck are you going to troubleshoot that electrical panel/heat etc?
Not suprised though.
Oh they have tech support but only if you work for them.
Loved stumping those guys on calls, great bunch of guys though had a great relashionship with alot of them as they also taught classes.
JC there HR contacts no one so that one I dont know, I know someone in there and still cant get in. Im sure you could get close to $40 with JC union shop.
And yes the ones I went to were all non...
I have seen all those links, good stuff.
Waiting on HR completed the bulk of paperwork yesterday.
Have a Bovis engineering interview coming up also so hopefully a great new start to the new...
I can speak for NY only..24+ years HVAC service technician a large chunk of it had been with factory service. I moved to a couple of smaller companys as the pay was much better. Won't make that...
No problem.
What do us non AOP member know anyway right, wont happen again.
This is the Ask Our Pro's forum. In order to post a response here, you must have verified qualifications and have been approved by the AOP Committee. You may ask a question by starting a new thread....
Much appreciated my friend thank you.
This should be a good one, the high superheat indicates a starving evaporator but the lack of subcooling is trouble.
The high excess compressor amperage is obviously telling you there is an issue....
Let you know soon.
Interview was Wednesday hired Thursday now its in HR's hands paperwork offer letters etc etc same thing that Trane did when I first got hired.
I guess I should change my name to Daikenmcquay Tech NYC
What was the harness going to BAS?
Has anyone heard anything about what kind of shop they run etc? I know its 638 etc anything else?
Looking to appy for a position there.
Dont get me started on Trane LIC.
Some people get away with murder and some do whatever they want.
I spent 11 years there you have to hit em high pay wise or deal with 35 cent raises.
Its all good buddy, was going thru my Trane IOM's and it gave me a damn headache, all my voyager IOM's are for larger tonnage. Like I said you learn something new everyday!
Cheers happy holidays!
His first post did not say modulating or otherwise until post #17, learn something new everyday. :det:
Smaller units was the key word (Precedents are considered voyagers atleast to Trane) if he would have let us know it would have cleared up the confusion as to negative or positive, no big deal its...
Thanks buddy, got your email the best to you and the family.
You have no clue, corporate has no buisness running a service company.
They are for lack of a better word, useless. I was...
I have yet to see a positive Voyager unit, to my knowledge they dont make positive gas pressure Voyagers.
Do you have a model, serial #?
Are you sure it was not -0.3?
Get it to 0.0 or -0.3 its whisling because it is at a positive WC your going to ruin the gas valve if it already has not been damaged by the positive WC.
Exactly, this will drive you nuts unless you know that it will just sit there and not fire if the DWU setpoint is below the occupied heating setpoint.
Reading the IOM would also hint you to do...
Is that what they had the balls to send out huh? Other endeavors?
I pretty much got sick of the micro managing BS, the dispatching incompetence, the 50 cent raises, the favoritism, the non...
I had all that but when I left I had to give it all up and the new company wants me to do Rover work for them. The boss is going to buy a new laptop and Rover from Trane so im getting a list together...
Besides the Rover software what other cables, cards (comm 4 & 5) etc are needed to interface with MP's, ZN's etc?
Anyone have a specific list, part numbers of cables etc?
I have the basic...
Pretty much what im hearing so far also about them, they are hiring but only positions in service.
Anyone have any recent experience with this company?
How is it to work for them?
Advancement potential?
Turn them in for MONGO copper is at an all time high!!
Hell they pay for Xmas gifts!
Ok I just seen that it was R404 and have to agree with coolblue you are undercharged.
Absolutely 100% correct.
Trane is now owned by Ingersol Rand who has offices in Ireland.
I went thru 2 corporate takeovers while at Trane. Good riddens.
Not an Obama fan was not a Bush fan either, but post up everything every soon to be president said before they were elected that they would do and what they were elected and what you have is just...
25 degrees of superheat is as you know way to high, there has to be some kind of restriction somewhere in the system or the charge is not right.
What refrigerant is in the unit?
Morale killer BIG time.
If there are 2 tstats you most likely have 2 seperate control circuits hense 2 transformers.
If there using 1 it must be one hell of a huge VA transformer to be powering up the ac and bolier.
At my former shop there getting the BARE minimum if that and not an inch more.
The unwillingness to train or pay + now GPS = alot of red next year in the books.
Rheem it with the $ savings and be done with it.
Hahaha that was a good one but its a damn good bet!:cheers:
Seperate transformers for ac and heat?
You can get a single tstat to run both just need more info.
I like your enthusiasm but NEVER work for free, there are more then few companys looking for guys with no experience to train. Get in a company learn controls, wiring troubleshooting, learn to read...
Sounds like you know alot about Trane NY, I see Trane in your profile but from the sounds of it your not there anymore. Ide say PM me but you cant PM anyone on here.
My personal opinion is if you dont trust someone fire them.
Trane has installed them on there fleet and if they think there guys are now working harder there in for a huge wake up call next year...
Residential 3 1/2 ton 3 phase phase? Most around here at 3 1/2 tons are single phase.
Have not seen one of those in NY in years, im sure you could find a cheaper 3 phase unit out there, everytime...
They werent that busy in the summer and its dead now but thats not the reason im not there anymore.
Lets just say me and upper management were not seeing eye to eye anymore and leave it at that.
Been 4 days for me and im already going crazy, good luck.
Been on here a while just never posted much.
20+ years of field experience, 10 years with Trane NY and seeking a new 638 shop.
Times are hard in NY for tech jobs at the moment if anyone knows...
Trane will soon break off from American Standard late in November. Wabco has already broken away from AS as a share holder I have been given a percentage of Wabco stocks.
Honeywell makes 1% if...
Nothing is ever on our website, unless your on Tranenet, then you can get the goodies.
Right on the money!
I was just working on Comm 4 & 5 VAV's with Rover.
I beleive there was a Service Bulletin about this a while back.

Alabama, Florida State take top spots in AP poll
Published: Sunday, November 10, 2013 at 4:00 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, November 10, 2013 at 4:50 p.m.
Florida State is No. 2 in The Associated Press college football poll, the Seminoles' best ranking since 2000.
Photo Galleries
Alabama remains No. 1 and received 56 first-place votes from the media panel. But the other national championship contenders right behind the Crimson Tide took advantage of Oregon's loss to Stanford on Thursday night and moved up.
Florida State got the other three first-place votes. The Seminoles were last ranked this high during the first half of the 2000 season, the year after they won their most recent national title.
Ohio State is No. 3, followed closely by Baylor. Stanford is fifth. Oregon dropped to No. 6. The rest of the top 10 includes three more Southeastern Conference teams. No. 7 is Auburn, followed by Clemson of the Atlantic Coast Conference, Missouri and Texas A&M.
The BCS standings, which do not take into account the AP poll, will be released Sunday night and are expected to have a similar order.
Notre Dame and Texas Tech dropped out of the rankings after losses and No. 23 Texas and No. 25 Georgia moved back in.
The Top 25 had 59 voters instead of its usual 60 because one of the voters was on a mandatory one-week furlough by his media outlet.

'New York' Magazine's Founding Editor Dies
Clay Felker, the founding editor of New York magazine, has died. He was 82. His editing at New York fostered the careers of Ken Auletta and others. Auletta, who worked for him both at New York magazine and the Village Voice, remembers Felker.
ROBERT SIEGEL, host:
Clay Felker, who created New York Magazine, died today at the age of 82. Felker fostered a stylish brand of journalism that mixed solid reporting with novelistic description, people spoke of the new journalism. He edited and published any number of first-rate magazine writers, among them Tom Wolfe, Gloria Steinem, Jimmy Breslin, Felker's wife, Gail Sheehy, Richard Reeves and Ken Auletta of The New Yorker who joins us now.
Ken Auletta, thoughts on Clay Felker as an editor and publisher, what was his contribution?
Mr. KEN AULETTA (Columnist, The New Yorker): Felker had this immense contribution in that he helped popularize what's called the new journalism. I mean, someone who said you have to tell a story. Don't tell me about the Holocaust. Tell me about Anne Frank. Don't tell me about IBM. Tell me, what is the story you want to share with readers about IBM?
He understood that news was becoming a commodity. And that it's much more so of today, you can get - all day long, you can get 24-hour news. You can go to the Internet and get all kinds of news. But when you needed was some context, some larger storytelling, the way people around a campfire tell stories, we could do the same in nonfiction, in fact-based reporting.
SIEGEL: New York Magazine, and many members of that stable of writers I mentioned earlier, came out of a old newspaper in New York, the New York Herald Tribune which have been read as the great writers' newspaper of New York City.
Mr. AULETTA: It was, and it was very much an innovation. If you remember, when the Herald Tribune folded, he took New York Magazine and got funding and started. It was the first city magazine in the United States and filled it with writers who tell stories. He was someone who knew how to woo talent. He could woo and charm the birds out of a tree and get them singing with him.
SIEGEL: Do you remember advice, editor's advice that Felker gave to you that changed the way you worked.
Mr. AULETTA: Yeah, I do. I wrote a piece in the time of the New York City fiscal crisis. The city - and with the support of the state and the support of labor union community and politicians - was hiding a deficit that amounted to about $5 billion in the end. I mean, claiming revenues they didn't have. And they were doing all these so they wouldn't have to raise taxes. Everyone was happy. And it was all fraud.
And Felker read my piece and he said, this is fine, Ken. But you need to crystallize it. You need to draw the readers' attention and let them understand where you might be going with this and why they should wade through the legalese and what is the payoff here. And he said, here's what I think. I think the headline of this piece should be, should these people go to jail?
And Milton Glaser, who is the genius art director and who created the look of New York Magazine, he sat in the office next to Felker at his elbow and drew a picture of a jail cell. And behind bars in this jail were the mayor of New York, the governor of New York, Nelson Rockefeller, some of the most prominent bankers and labor leaders. And when I saw that, in that room that moment, I said, wow. These people have taken a piece of work I did and show the reader a path to light.
SIEGEL: And, of course, to have said that these people should go to jail, that would be editorializing.
Mr. AULETTA: That would be - and he didn't, it was a question mark. It just said, these are the arguments why they should and these are the arguments why maybe they shouldn't. I remember thinking about one illuminating example of what a good editor can do.
SIEGEL: Well, Ken Auletta, thanks a lot for talking with us…
Mr. AULETTA: My pleasure.
SIEGEL: …about your former editor, the late Clay Felker. Clay Felker died today in New York City at the age of 82.

I got the error message above when I tried to comment my blog. I believe the problem has been for a while - since I changed the address of my blog to http://vilee.org from vilee.org/wordpress/
In any case I wouldn't want to go back for /wordpress since the site is ment to grow a bit wider and I planned to accomplish that via build in page possibilities.
I quickly couldn't find out whats wrong. I hope you guys can help me out with this!

Fuck. They had the best Tacos Al Pastor in town. The one by Northgate doesn't even compare.
I wish that Seattle had more food-wagons. I get a bit jealous whenever I go down to Portland and see the multitudes of wagons they have. It's a guilty pleasure, but a pleasure nonetheless.
See people? The dork who thinks he's so cool for spewing Hummer-loads of pollution from a two-stroke moped is a hipster douche. Please learn to tell the difference.
You're allowed to kick those over, by the way.
Are you sure, Jonah? I tried to get a burrito here on Saturday and their sign said they were just "closed for the weekend". They were obviously cleaning the hell out of the thing, and my assumption was that it would reopen shortly.
@ Doug-
The health dept. site says it's still closed. They're allowed to reopen whenever they get up to code, but I think it usually takes about a week.
nooo! the only place in wallingford to grab a bite to eat after 2 am.
I'll stick to Agua Verde, thanks.
DAMN!! Where am I supposed to get my food poisoning now??!!! Fuck that sucks!! Life is not fair unless I can eat from a roach coach and spend a week shitting liquid crap out of my asshole!!!
@6 Not really. Milano pizza is open until 3 a.m.
Went by Sushi Land on lower Queen Anne on Sunday, and it was closed for water problems. Didn't go by today, anybody know what's going on?
is it bad if i like the place but still tell you that i once saw one of the gals there tending to a sick pidgeon she had in a box out back and ...maybe...changed gloves once she went back in? and then that i still ate my tacos with delight afterwards?
Elenchos, it's quite possible that this is all this guy could afford which is the big lure of these things, not "thinking he's cool" as you say. And I would still bet my money on the oldest, filthiest two-strokes over the Hummer. I've never seen a two-stroke scooter sit in stop-and-go traffic on the freeway for 2 hours every day, the very act which creates the most pollution. Most scooter owners use them for short local trips as they're much too annoying for anything else.
I never ate there but was happy it existed. A taco truck in a Winchell's doughnut parking lot. Wallingford is an interesting, perplexing neighborhood.
Sorry, @13, but those two-strokes emit more carbon in an hour than a Hummer does in a year.
I agree that La Pasadita is supercalifragilistic (don't get al pastor, get the carnitas), but it's also really far away. Rancho Bravos is right there. North of the ship canal is woefully underserved by taco trucks. Aqua Verde doesn't even begin to compare.
It's funny, too, how all anybody wants to talk about now is carbon. As if we don't worry if the air is poisoned or not, only greenhouse gases. The climate might not care if you're breathing CO or CO2, but one of them causes brain damage and heart problems. Or just kills you. The climate also doesn't care that you're breathing raw hydrocarbons, but you'll care when the benzene makes you puke, and eventually gives you cancer. So big SUVs are hogs, but they are clean. Two-strokes are filthy, filthy dirty, and that shit will kill you dead.
And nobody goes to all the trouble and expense of keeping an antique moped running because they're poor; quite the opposite.
Of course, a more insightful and more germane question might be "Why do criminals rate the second mentioned taco place so low?"
I'm betting it's the service.
They put up with bad service by rating it low.
Damn. I'd agree that this wasn't the best taco truck in Seattle (Rainier near Walden and 155th and Aurora are certainly better).
But this one was the closest one to North Capitol Hill. It was reasonably priced. It was open until like 3am on the weekends, and in countless times eating there I never got sick. Oh well. I hope they can clean up their act and get back in business.
i was pretty sure that i got food poisoning from there two weeks ago -- this sadly confirms my suspicions . . .
DAMN! This was my favorite Mexican food in Seattle. I don't know whether to feel disgusted or relieved now.
All I do know is that there is no freaking way I'm going to TacoTime with their bullshit "Mexi-fries".
Whatever taco truck in White Center we at the office go to for lunch sometimes is awesome. If I had a car I'd be eating there constantly.
Fnarf, your eyes must be brown. H/t Rover Eric.
A 2-stroke vehicle is kinda like a diesel vehicle - it emits more particulate matter into the air than a 4-stroke vehicle or car. This is what contributes to smog among other things.
A 2-stroke scooter emits LESS CO2 than your standard car or SUV or whatever, so it's cleaner in that regard. Something that gets 75-130 mpg is going to be naturally cleaner on the CO2 tip than something that gets 1/5 of that mileage.
that's great and everything, bobcat, but what good does that do me? stuck on Capitol Hill. drunk. not owning a car. it'd be pretty un-PC of me if I did own one and drove drunk to that place, don't you think? why are you sooooo cruel?
I think a few times I ate at the Wallingford location, I didn't get sick per se, but felt a little iffy. I have a pretty strong stomach, so food poisoning is rarely to never an issue. still that sucks.
look at how awkward he is standing in that picture. that alone is enough reason to mock him.
also, anyone in the food service industry will tell you there's this new guy on the beat who's a mega asshole. it could have been something like a clogged sink that got them, he's insane.
Their food was fucking great. I knew that the conditions may be less than ideal - look at the place - but a little bacteria is sometimes a good thing. I hope they can clean up and get back to business.
The the HC that goes into your engine has to all go somewhere. The H in a newer 4 stroke engine becomes H2O, which is clean. In a dirty two stroke, a third of it remains HC, fouling the air with unburned gasoline. Two stroke boats and jet skis spew this into the water where it kills the fish and turtles and so on.
The C, carbon, has to either become CO or CO2. It can't just disappear. CO2 is not poisonous, but it is a greenhouse gas. Clean engines emit mostly CO2. Dirty engines like two strokes emit far less CO2, because they replace it with CO. Carbon monoxide is also a greenhouse gas -- there is nothing gained by subbing CO for CO2. You lose over again because CO is bad for the climate and also poisons everything that breathes.
And this is all assuming the best case scenario with a relatively modern two stroke. The worn out old mopeds and scooters that the hipsters ride are far less efficient.
"Criminals", Will? Huh? Forget some of your pills again?
It's unburned oil, not gas. I'm not saying there are no emissions, the question was whether a two stroke emits more than a Hummer or SUV. I burn one gallon a week commuting. Burning that gallon is not equivalent to the 10 gallons or more that an SUV would burn to go the same distance.
We need the government and a bureaucrat to protect people from eating stuff that can harm them. Governments solve everything.
"Each time a new charge of air/fuel is loaded into the combustion chamber, part of it leaks out through the exhaust port. That's why you see a sheen of oil around any two-stroke boat motor. The leaking hydrocarbons from the fresh fuel combined with the leaking oil is a real mess for the environment."
Look. Cities all over Asia are dominated by two stroke bikes. Is the air in Manila cleaner or dirtier than cities that rely on 4 stroke cars? Dirtier. Much.
Left coast, you are confusing consumption rates with pollution rates. No one is arguing that the Hummer doesn't suck down ten times as much gas. But Hummers, however much gas they guzzle, are actually pretty clean at the tailpipe, as are all modern vehicles. It has a big 'ol catalytic converter, for one thing. Fuel-efficient SULEV cars do even better on emissions, but two-stroke anythings -- scooters or leaf blowers -- just spew unbelievable amounts of gunk into the air.
Fnarf, you are confusing junk and greenhouse gases.
That White Center one is the best. Does anybody know the exact intersection?
Taqueria La Fondita 2 is between 15th and 16th Ave SW - (perhaps at 100th or 102nd - sorry!) it's behind Pho Tai and kitty corner to the New Angkor Market, and yes, it does rule the earth. Much better than the overpriced Wallingford roach coach in question...
I like the taco truck by Northgate. I always stop when I'm passing through.
people in seattle waxing mexican food motivates me to go back to the bay area. 4 years
I just moved to Wallingford a month ago. That place was cheap, within walking distance and DELICIOUS. Some of the best Mexican food I've had in Seattle.
I really hope they reopen soon.
On the food poisoning issue: I have a REALLY sensitive stomach and I never felt sick after eating there.
I have some of their salsa stockpiled in the fridge actually, now that I think about it.
Maybe it nosedove in quality over recent weeks, but I liked my experience with the Rancho Bravo Taco Truck's rice and bean bowls back in the day.
I hope they clean up, return and stay in line. It'll be a shame if they disappear and Wallyworld's food options are reduced to Dick's and nothing else.
Late night food options, I mean
james taylor sings a song about mexican food. come to think of it, if jimmy buffett wanted to sing that song, he could, and make $$. even if that taco truck played music - which it doesn't - i doubt they would be playing that JT song. or any JT song, timbalake or taylor. carly simon bagged JT senior. and paul!
i've gotten the shits at tacos guyamos on south broadway 3 times....never once did i say i wouldn't go back...but never once did i think that it would hapen again....yet it did and does. never once did i get the shits at a taco truck proper OR any the the 'bertos (filia., dos., erri., etc.) shops in the SW. never......never give a loan to a taco truck trucker. never.
i recommend the taco truck at 145th and 15th NE ... i really have nothing else useful to add. thank you.
*screams to the heavens*
it is not every parking lot in seattle where you can find delicious delicious quesadillas and then pop in to a winchells for donuts and then cross the street to get comic books.
this may mean the death of my favorite block..
Oh, Pasadita! Back when I worked at Pacific Topsoil, just about every day someone would drive the six blocks and get tacos for the team. Then they would get covered in dust and truck fumes at work. Mmmm...
Their tacos were pretty damn good. And they stayed open until just after bar closing time on weekends. What's not to like?
On the food poisoning issue -- the taco truck (as we call it) is like a crack provider to my roommates and I. Meaning between the four of us we're eating there 5-10 times a week. We've been doing this for months. And we've never had any problems.
Man, I hope they reopen.
I'll stick to Agua Verde, thanks.
Sorry @7 (Will in Seattle), have to agree with Fnarf on this. Agua Verde is another overpriced, overrated purveyor of Mexican food. The only Mexican place near the UW that serves the real thing is Mi Charrito.
That guy in the canadian tuxedo is obviously worried about how tight his jeans are than the emissions coming from his peugeot.
you'd better believe that if i ever see someone kicking over my moped, they will be getting hit in the face with whatever i can get my hands on at the time
I have a 2008 moped. Two-stroke. With a catalytic converter in the pipe. Meets the environmental guidelines for FOUR-STROKE vehicles in EVERY state in the US. Plus I get 120 miles to the gallon. Stop thinking that ALL two-strokes are evil. We have technology to make them better. Ass.
My pants also fit much better than that dudes do.
I ride a moped in Seattle. I will take responsibility and apologize for single-handedly destroying the environment. I will not, however, allow for the man in that photo to represent me.
if anyone ever kicks over my moped, i will use terry dean to bash their faces in!
Leave this so-called 'hipster' alone, what you don't see in this picture is he totally has tardcrutches and riding mopeds is the only joy he gets out of a life of constant pain. If that's not worth destroying the environment then i don't know what is.
if anyone actually cares about the topic of this slog post still, the taco truck was open again as of last night. go fill up on your asada tacos asap.

What's New in Version 6.0.1
Thank you for all the feedback, as we work through the list here are a couple of quick fixes that you guys have raised:
• Our Widget is up and running again
• Fixed a number of crashes
• Resolved a few UI issues with the iPad app
Remember to hit Send Feedback from the sidebar, we are listening!
Customer Reviews
Used to be great app, but now...
...it might be the worst. This version of the app is almost unusable. If you're only interested in the daily videos of one of your favorite teams, maybe you'll find some value in this app. If you want to know any useful information about standings, stats, current game, etc, good luck finding that information.
Don't get me wrong, it's there, you'll just spend too much time trying to find the information you want.
Want to know the standings for your favorite team in MLB? Be prepared to go on lengthy search. There used to be a "tab" for teams that was designed specifically for that information. No more.
Also, the most basic use of this type of app is to find scores of games for today and yesterday. Finding the scores for today might only take a few taps, but double that for finding yesterday's scores. I guess yesterday isn't important because, well, it was yesterday.
When it comes to scores, stats, standings, and schedules, it doesn't have to be complicated. It just had to be informative. We don't need an app that will show every video of every possible event; we just want game information.
If Yahoo feels compelled to provide an app for sports videos, then please create one. There's nothing wrong with an app for "who cares" video and another app for useful sports information.
… particularly if you're interested in the major teams of the major sports.
If you're interested in a lesser sport, it's at least good for tracking results. It does support a pretty good range of sports, although coverage falls off dramatically as you go from U.S. to Europe, and again as you go from Europe to that other place — whatsit called? Oh, yeah — the rest of the world.
Coverage for Oh Canada is zero, except for the U.S. leagues with Can teams.
The geographical pick tracking has needed significant work for a year or two.
The app lets Y! users comment on articles, but be careful about making the wrong move while writing your comment, or else the app will vaporize the comment before you even submit it.
Y! continues to improve the app and add coverage and features; maybe that's why it periodically comes up with some really goofy issues, like throwing horse racing articles in with NASCAR coverage, enhancing FIFA coverage with track & field reports, and randomly mis-categorizing swaths of articles, for example, flagging a piece about the Padres under the Orioles, etc.
Net: A pretty good app that does get better every year, and you can't complain about the price.
The Best Sports App
Love the app. Nicer looking and updates faster than the ESPN app. It doesn't have all of the intruding ads that ruin the experience on the ESPN app. It is easy to navigate and has a ton of information. If you are looking for the best sports app by a mile, this is it.
Updated review 7/8/16: I will keep this simple. The best sports app, by far, was just ruined by the newest update. Now it reminds me of the ESPN app, which is also a convoluted mess. It was so clean and easy to navigate before the update. I miss the dark background and how easy it was to see only the sports scores that I am interested in.
And why is there a soccer story at the top of my Favorites page?!? The favorites page should only have stories about my Favorites. Have your headline story on the Headlines page, not the Favorites page. At the very least - bring back the dark theme.

A new atmospheric model has been developed jointly by Météo-France, and the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) under the acronyms ARPEGE (action de recherche petite echelle grande echelle, which means research project on small and large scales) and IFS (integrated forecast system). This model includes, inter alia, an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM) which is intended by the French climate modelling community to be used for studying the anthropogenic climate impact. A preliminary version of this model has been available since 1992. This paper describes its main characteristics. Three 10-year integrations of this model having spectral horizontal resolutions of T21, T42, and T79 have been performed using prescribed monthly mean sea surface temperatures (SST) observed from 1979 until 1988. The results of these integrations are presented and compared with the observed climatology. The comparison is made for the winter (DJF) and summer (JJA) periods. It is shown that the model is capable of reproducing the observed climatology in a generally successful manner.

This paper deals with strategies for agrobiodiversity conservation and promotion based on studies on four plant groups (selected from 50 plant groups) occurring in the Yunnan Province of China. These plants are edible konjac (Amorphophallus), medicinal Paris, Musella lasiocarpa and wild tea (Camellia sinensis and its wild relatives), including their cultivars and wild populations. After analyzing the target plants, we conclude that the following strategies should be adopted to conserve and promote agrobiodiversity: (1) in situ conservation of agrobiodiversity, including habitat protection of wild populations, maintenance of native species and varieties in traditional agroecosystems, and relevant environmental education; (2) ex situ conservation and promotion of agrobiodiversity, including establishment of living collections and germplasm banks, and introduction of species and varieties into agroecosystems for agricultural practice; and (3) promotion and conservation of agrobiodiversity through sustainable uses, including technique development of propagation, cultivation, pest and disease control, on farm and off farm management, and other activities such as new variety breeding and scientific studies. Strategies developed here will be helpful to conserve and promote agrobiodiversity at agroecosystem, species, variety or landrace, and management system levels.

Not using an AR card is the safest way. They are what corrupts the saves. Generally, if is corrupted, it simply won't load.
Posted 09 October 2005 - 08:24 PM
So if i go into splinter cell and load it and it brings me to the softmod menu does this mean it is not corrupted?
Posted 09 October 2005 - 08:29 PM
yes. if you get to that point it will probably work fine

I cant remember for sure, but there is an online update checker for UnleashX, in the settings, so you should run that to see if your UnleashX is upto date. As for progams, there are many stuff, such as Dvd2Xbox (very popular, lets u copy games to ur hard drive) LinksBoks (Internet Explorer for Xbox) Xbox Media Center (XBMP, is what the title means) and alot more. Those 3 are common ones though.

For a unit that deservedly picked up a ton of negative publicity in the first half of USC's 2011 season, Saturday's game against Notre Dame represented a significant development for the Trojan offensive line.
Because, for the first time this season, they were actually, legitimately, good -- for an entire game, no less, against a solid defensive team as well.
And, in typical fast-paced sports fan tradition, talk has quickly morphed from the line being USC's biggest weakness to -- maybe, sort of -- one of the Trojans' strengths. Head coach Lane Kiffin squashed any and all of that talk Wednesday, speaking to the media after practice and referencing ESPN College GameDay analyst Lee Corso.
"We're not there yet," Kiffin said Wednesday. "As Corso says, 'not so fast.'"
It's easy to see what has sparked the positivity. Right guard John Martinez had his best game as a Trojan, as Kiffin himself said earlier this week. Left guard Marcus Martin is starting to show improvement. Aside from the occasional shotgun snap flub, center Khaled Holmes has been consistently good the last two weeks. Left tackle Matt Kalil barely got beat against the Irish, and right tackle Kevin Graf's been better since his horrific Arizona State game.
USC ran for 219 yards against Notre Dame, its best output of the seven-game-strong season. Quarterback Matt Barkley wasn't sacked a single time and actually had some time to stay in the pocket on occasion.
But that's not all the doing of the line.
"We're excited that we ran the ball well. We're excited that we had zero sacks," Kiffin said Wednesday. "But, also, Matt (Barkley) helped that. There were a couple sacks in there where Matt got away from stuff. We have a long ways to go up front, and this is going to be a huge test this week.
"These [Stanford] guys are really, really good. Look at their run-defense numbers."
The Cardinal are elite defending the run, led by defensive end Matt Masifilo. Before the Washington game, in which the Huskies actually found success on the ground, Stanford was allowing just over two yards per carry to opponents -- a ridiculously low number boosted by a high amount of sacks, which count against rushing yards at the college level.
They've been mostly great. Look at their games against Colorado's Rodney Stewart (21 yards) and Washington State's Carl Winston (31 yards) for evidence.
It'll be the USC's offensive line's job to prove that maybe -- just maybe -- they're better than their own coach thinks and Stanford D-line isn't as good as advertised.

Doherty Design Studio have re-invigorated the interiors of an 1980's designed home, by Cocks & Carmichael Architects.
The designers chose to embrace many of the 1980's elements, and play up the existing features – glass bricks, grey terrazzo flooring, whilst still injecting a contemporary renovation to suit the young family of five.> See full project
Doherty Design Studio worked a blank canvas and the existing layout of an Archiblox prefab home to create a highly personalised interior. Simplicity of design and materiality were pivotal to realising the owners' desire for a sophisticated, yet relaxed, aesthetic.> See full project
The owners of this, L-shaped home engaged Doherty Design Studio to devise a design solution to convert their humble single-storey residence into a well-equipped, contemporary home that will work to better service the young couple and their young child's needs.
It was important for the new design to be in keeping with the modest nature of the original architecture, as well as provide a calm, relaxed atmosphere through a natural bent and a strong connection to the outdoors.

Tucked into a tiny 27sqm, the new Queen Victoria Market store is all about 'self serve' with country-of-origin spice wrapping around two sides of the space. This design references the traditional spice markets of exotic locations throughout the world, but answers the owners' desire for a contemporary take on traditional German styling through materiality.

I really enjoyed this as an audiobook. I saw the Tom Cruise movie and so I was comparing this to the movie. I don't think I would have wanted aliens invading Earth back in the time when there was horse and buggy and no cell phones and the weaponry wasn't as sophisticated as it is now. very entertaining for a long car ride.
My dad taught me to read with a bunch of broken-spined sci-fi books, one being The War of the Worlds. Potentially problematic when you get down to the nitty gritty subject matter but it worked for us and thrust me solidly into geekdom. Thanks, Dad.
Reading it for the first time all these years later, my five stars are a bit of a hodge podge of good memories and an impression of the unique and exciting material that was produced by Wells at a time when there wasn't really anything else like it. The five stars will remain and it's officially been added to my favorites list which, let's be honest, it always was.
I suspect that my expectations of this classic science fiction novel might have been unduly stretched by recollections of listening to Jeff Wayne's musical version from the late 1970s. Reading it now I found that the narrative from Wayne's version seemed more imposing and eloquent than Wells's rather pedestrian prose. That may just be a trick of the mind, though - I suppose that anything read out loud by Richard Burton would always have greater impact than words on a page.
The story is a compelling one – towards the end of the nineteenth century a number of cylinders are launched from Mars and land at various sites through Surrey and the Home Counties of England. A crowd gathers to witness this spectacle and, after a considerable delay while the capsules to cool down from their perilous journey through Earth's atmosphere, the Martians gradually appear. It is immediately apparent that this is not friendly foray with a view to establishing peaceful and mutually beneficial trade. The Martians have a death ray and deploy it liberally, causing the survivors to flee, and start a mass exodus from London.
His prose may seem rather dry nowadays, but Wells knew how to tell a story. His characters seem very real and plausible, and he successfully blends the outlandish (i.e. an alien invasion) with the mundane aspects of life, adding verisimilitude to the story.
its a classic story, interesting to read it after the album, and the film and film.... it was hard work in places, but i enjoyed it.
It has been a few years since i first read this and I was struck at how skillfully the story was told without ever mentioning a name - I think by doing this Wells made it far more relatable (you put yourself into the role of the protagonist and his brother). Also I can see now how strongly he was pushing evolution as a scientific theme - It is hard to imagine exactly how far we have come in our understanding of science in such a short time until you read something like this.
Wells predicted things that were unimaginable at the time: A conflict involving the whole world, chemical warfare (black gas), Flying machines, mechanical devices capable of almost animal movement (something we are still getting to) and the suggestion of interstellar flight.
The way Wells imagined some of these things were accomplished (even I, with my limited knowledge of science) know would not be possible - such as a cannon firing the martian rockets at earth and all of them landing in such small area - are easy to criticise but the fact is he extrapolated his story from the cutting edge of science in his day.
Two world wars have brought many of the not so nice things that he imagined to life and we didn't even need martians to do it.
Mr. Wells's dramatic power is of the strongest, and through "The War of the Worlds" deals with death, destruction, and ruin, he has known how to manage a terrible topic in a clever and ingenuous way.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0375759239, Paperback)This is the granddaddy of all alien invasion stories, first published by H.G. Wells in 1898. The novel begins ominously, as the lone voice of a narrator tells readers that "No one would have believed in the last years of the nineteenth century that this world was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's..."
Things then progress from a series of seemingly mundane reports about odd atmospheric disturbances taking place on Mars to the arrival of Martians just outside of London. At first the Martians seem laughable, hardly able to move in Earth's comparatively heavy gravity even enough to raise themselves out of the pit created when their spaceship landed. But soon the Martians reveal their true nature as death machines 100-feet tall rise up from the pit and begin laying waste to the surrounding land. Wells quickly moves the story from the countryside to the evacuation of London itself and the loss of all hope as England's military suffers defeat after defeat. With horror his narrator describes how the Martians suck the blood from living humans for sustenance, and how it's clear that man is not being conquered so much a corralled. --Craig E. Engler
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:19:09 -0400)
H.G. Wells' late nineteenth-century novel in which an intellectually superior race from Mars invades Earth with plans to take over the planet.

I'm getting married on Saturday, to a non-surfer, BUT she goes to the beach with me to hang out every time I go surf and doesn't complain or make it so that i'll cut my sessions short. She does sometimes get out there when it's small and likes to get pushed into a wave or two, but then she'll just go back and sit on the beach and watch. She likes the peace and quiet, and it all works out. The point i'm getting at is that it doesn't matter if she surfs or not, what matters is that she knows what it means to YOU and she doesn't get in the way of that. If she's a good woman, she'll support you in whatever it is that you LOVE to do, otherwise it won't work out, and you'll either stop surfing to please her, or you'll constantly be pissing her off with your LOVE for something NOT her. My two cents...

Sorry hun, when it's 5 feet, perfect and glassy, you're just going to have to deal with me surfing, a lot, for a long time. Long story short, I'll take the single life, or a girl who loves surfing too, or a girl who just understands that I gotta be me and deals with me accordingly. Maybe I need to find a chick who's way in to photography and likes snapping photos of me kooking it up.

My wife surfs. I couldn't,t have it any other way. Yeah if she doesn't surf she might get how you love it nd she may chill on the beach etc but she won't be happy traveling to the arse end of the earth to some backwater just to get some waves. My wife does that enjoys it and looks good doing it. Admittedly , I am vey lucky

Sometimes I think what would happen if I saw some very sexy chick on the beach, looking good, under her umbrella, and she's saying "hey, baby, come hang out with me....". But.... it's overhead, clean and pumping. I would have to say "sorry baby, I'll have to see you later.". I can't imagine wanting to sit on the beach watching good waves and not surfing-' + '-even if, whatever sexy girl wants me to stay there.

the way i look at is this: 1) i can get way deeper in a hot moist tube on a surfboard than on dry land and 2) the ocean is always there for you, women, not so much

It's not getting married that cuts into surf time as long as you pick the right partner. It's the kids. Right from waiting for the due date it gets dicey. When they're babies someone said "it's all about making deals" not so different from when you had to switch shifts or make a deal with someone at work so you could surf.
\nBut then as the kids get older, it gets easier. Now my oldest is 14, and I'm making deals with him, I'll take you fishing if you cut the lawn so I can surf...
\nMy wife and kids love the beach, so beach days and vacations with waves work for all of us.

Some good advice here. I'm married (no kids yet) - wife doesn't surf, but enjoys hanging on the beach. I tried to get her into it...she's cool when it's somewhere tropical and knee-waist high and clean, but doesn't enjoy the east coast wind chop and 55 degree water. Props to her for giving it a shot though.
Anyway, like everyone else said, it's about compromise and understanding what's important to each other. She knows when it's firing, just about anything will get dropped for surfing. However, if it's something that's important to her, I'll usually make it an early morning session so we can do her thing later in the day. So far so good.

Hate to rain on the honeymoon, but things may change. At least they did in my case. My wife used to do all sorts of coolness. Took our honeymoon at oualie beach in Nevis and windsurfed the days away. Backcountry turns and yurt trips in northern new Mexico, surf trips to Bocas, mt biking all over the four corners. It was fun while it lasted, then we had kids, now her only hobby is shopping and buying crap we don't need. Oh well. At least my boys are getting old enough to do some real trips up here now. And the dogs will always go anywhere with me...

been married to a non-surfer for 23 years. the key is to let her know very early in the relationship how much surfing means to you. If she is cool with that then you are good and if she hates it then you aren't so tied up that you cant bail out.

i hear ya there pumpmaster. i'm not married but i've been with the same girl for a while. she knows how important surfing is to me, but i still will never live down the time i said "nothing compares to the feeling of riding a wave." she goes "nothing?" i say "ya it's the best" (wrong answer). but at least we can joke about it!

\nWhen my wife and I were dating and it first started getting serious, I would get up in the morning and go paddle out EVEN WHEN IT WAS TOTALLY FLAT. I would just float around a while, disappear for a few hours, just to let her see that this is what it was going to be like and kind of to see how she would react. She needed to know that I would be gone, absent, totally disappear for stretches. She passed the test. Big time.
\nEight years on now and she's still passing the test, mostly because she sees now, especially with kids and all, how much happier and more pleasant to be around I am after I get back from the beach.
'; pd[143362] = '
"She got legit angry with me for surfing and not just sitting on the beach and hangin with her. "
\nThis reminded me of my ex girlfriend, she even once asked what I love more surfing or her. She didn't appreciate my answer "I've been surfing longer" Needless to say that didn't last. I am now happily married. My wife fully supports me surfing and when we got engaged got me a custom surfboard as a "mangagement" present. She understands my need to surf and knows the deal, when we first met, I laid it out for her, and she accepted that is who I am. (just like I accept she is a vegetarian and I eat meat). We've never had a problem, she does want to come on some, but not all surf trips as she does like to park her ass on the beach.

My wife doesnt surf but she knows how much it means to me.We now have 19 Month old twin boys and still haven't missed a swell since they were born.When we first found out we were having twins my response was"please dont let me give up surfing" her response ''you can't leave me alone with two babies" but somehow we worked it out.You have to explain to them without it we would be a living corpse.I go out on a dawn patrol when I come back she goes out jogging.The bottom line is no relationship is easy then throw a passion into it where we can't pick and choose when there's a swell but if you love it like I do(surfing sometimes the wife)you can make it work

surfing is something that I can do to escape everything else in my life. So probably not.
\nAs for understanding your need to feed the surf monkey... if they truly love you, they will understand.

One thing I must say personally, I have a buddy that has a girlfriend, they might as well be married. But everytime I call my boy to go surf he has to drag along his "wife" (girlfriend) and it kinda pisses me off. Just being able to sit out there with ur boys and enjoy it is enough for me. I dont need his GF or Wife paddling around too. Idk maybe I have beef with this girl. But when I think surfing I think me and my boys and no distractions..... Complete Bliss!

When things started to get serious with my girl, I told her straight up "DONT EVER GET IN THE WAY OF MY SURFING OR FISHING". She said ok and she has never once told me I can't go or acted like a jackhole because I went. These 2 thing are VERY important to me and she understood. They are both the same in that I will be gone all day, whether its to the East Coast or offshore 50 miles. If you make it clear in the beginning, then things will go smooth, as long as she remembers she agreed. Hell shes from PR and she doesnt say a word when I go for 2 weeks every January, she trusts me and I trust her so its all good. 10 years in and a super 7 year old grom later, life is great. A good woman indeed!

The University of Otago has been ordered to pay $7000 legal
costs in the case of a former staff member found to have been
unjustifiably dismissed.
The Employment Relations Authority (ERA) ordered the
university to pay legal costs, after it last year found
former head of marketing services Kerry Kirkland was
unjustifiably dismissed and unjustifiably disadvantaged by
the university - ordering it to pay $12,465.75 for lost wages
and emotional damages.
In a written decision, ERA member David Appleton rejected the
university's argument costs should ''lie where they fall'' or
be significantly lower than $7000 - which was the normal
amount of costs given for a two-day ERA case.
Counsel for university argued it should either pay no or
reduced legal costs on the basis Dr Kirkland had considered
challenging the decision - meaning she was not the successful
party - and the bulk of time at the investigation meeting was
spent on allegations not upheld by the ERA.
He also rejected calls from Dr Kirkland's counsel for legal
costs of $26,099.23. Dr Kirkland's counsel had argued for the
increased amount due to a number of factors including the
''complexity'' of the case and because it was ''daunting'' to
fight an organisation such as the university.
In rejecting arguments from both parties, Mr Appleton said he
saw no ''cogent reason'' to either award a greater or reduced
amount than the normal daily tariff of $3500 a day -
totalling $7000 for a two-day case.
The case was no more complex than many unjustified dismissal
cases and while Dr Kirkland was not ''wholly successful'',
she was still the successful party, he said.

So I've modified a theme that I want to use so far petty well, but I'm running into problems with the main page.
However, as it stands right now, the Home page is the header and then in the body it's one column. I want to break it into 2-columns while retaining the integrity of the theme.
My ideal goal is to have two users just post in each column on the main page. Any ideas would be appreciated :D

48 year old woman | Denver, CO, United States | Seeking men 38-50 within 50 miles
Curiosity got the best of me and thought I'd give this a try!
My closest friends would describe me as caring , sweet and honest. I believe that the more you're attracted to a person the more they make you laugh! I want to laugh every single day! Making me smile is not difficult I think there is a lot in life to smile about. I'm passionate about my children, family and friends, my relationship with God. I believe if its the right relationship it shouldn't take a lot of effort, I am so not into drama. I love the sun and beach activities, I was fortunate to live in Hawaii for three years. I love to travel and experience new things. Although my life has brought a lot of twists, Im still an optimist and believe in love and refuse to give up.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Exploring new areas , Nightclubs/Dancing , Performing arts , Travel/Sightseeing , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Basketball, Golf, Tennis / Racquet sports, VolleyBall, Weights / Machines, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Dogs
I have two small dogs named Salt and Pepper.
Middle of the Road
I love the beach and warm weather. Hawaii and Florida but would love to explore other destinations.
Fort Lewis College, Durango, CO
I tend to get hooked on shows that are on Netflix that way I can watch one after the other, I'm currently watching Prison Break, I just love him!
I love going out dancing, movies and hanging out on nice days with friends. I enjoy watching sports, especially college basketball during March madness. I've recently begun to play golf, I'm not that good but I have potential.
I do belong to a book club but lately we've been drinking more wine than reading but I do enjoy historical fiction.

I am working on a client site where we have a category for future events, using the ec3 plugin to manage the event list.
On the category page, I would like to have a single sentence that says "there are no upcoming events at this time - check back soon" if there are no posts to list.
Can I edit the Loop to make this happen? I am not a programmer and the "while" structure is flummoxing me.
You can see what I've currently got online (tho the site is under construction) at http://www.mikesouthern.com/wp/?cat=2
Thanks for advice!
