Our founding attorney, John G. McNally, was born and raised in Trenton, and practically born into the legal profession. He is a third-generation lawyer and one of seven family members who became attorneys or judges, including his father, the late Judge Gerald A. McNally, the first Judge of the 33rd District Court who proudly served for 25 years.
After earning his law degree from Detroit College of Law (now Michigan State University Law School) in 1992, John went into practice with his brother, Michael K. McNally, sharpening his litigation and personal injury skills. After Michael was elected to the bench in 1994, Mr. McNally continued to practice on his own. Recognizing that there were no sizeable law firms in the Downriver area, John set out to create one. Building on the solid foundation of the family name, he achieved his own measure of success and respect and gradually realized the vision of a thriving firm with five lawyers and ten staff.
Over time, however, the rigors of running a large firm drew John away from the close interaction with his clients that he so enjoyed and his clients deserved. After a decade of operating a large firm, he shifted back to solo practice to provide the one-on-one attention and responsiveness to which he and his clients were accustomed. He continued to be directly accountable to his clients in all areas of litigation with his uncompromising integrity and work ethic.
Having always focused on personal injury since 1992, the Law Offices of John G. McNally, P.C., continues to represent clients in the areas of estate planning, business and insurance litigation, and criminal defense, in Wayne and Monroe counties. With a primary focus on personal injury, John also continues to offer quality legal services in the areas of estate planning, business law, insurance litigation, criminal defense and real estate law.

A retail pot store in rural Porter could be days away from opening and becoming Grays Harbor County's first recreational marijuana store.
The store has cleared possibly its most major hurdle and, depending on how quickly the state Liquor Control Board acts in conducting its final inspection of the premises, 3 M's of Grays Harbor could start selling recreational marijuana out of its refurbished Porter establishment by the end of this month or the start of September.
The county's Board of Adjustment unanimously approved the conditional-use permit of store owner Josh Miller at a lengthy public hearing in Montesano Monday evening, which one board member called "groundbreaking."
"I'm definitely relieved," said Miller after the hearing.
Miller has put tens of thousands of dollars into remodeling and installing security, including many, state-mandated, high-definition cameras, at the old Porter Grocery Store building since winning the state's lottery for one of the much-coveted retail licenses. Only 334 stores will eventually be allowed to open statewide.
During the first month of legal marijuana sales in the state, the limited number of stores open sold just under $3.8 million worth of weed, which is expected to bring in more than $1 million in taxes, the state reported on Friday.
Although licenses have been issued for about 40 stores, only 18 were selling pot in July, and 16 of them have reported sales so far in August. The closest open store has beenin Olympia.
"It's off to a healthy start, considering that the system isn't fully up and running yet," said Brian Smith, a spokesman for the Washington liquor control board. The state has also only approved 165 legal growers so far, out of about 2,600 applicants.
As more stores open in the weeks to come, they will have more product to sell besides raw marijuana and smoking paraphernalia. Last week, the state released its first list of 18 approved marijuana-infused products from three licensed processors. Among them are marijuana infused sodas — in Rainier cherry, pomegranate and lemon-ginger flavors by Mirth Provisions LLC; tart cherry cannabis-infused shots in various strengths by Db3 Corp., and "Baked Botanicals" by Green Chiefs LLC. The products include marijuana-infused brittle, cookies, nuts, chocolate and trail mix.
Miller said he's ready to open. He's already had his first shipment of 5 pounds on order and ready for delivery — but say's he's awaiting approval by the Liquor Control Board.
"We need the Liquor Control Board to get back to us and sometimes they don't communicate very well," Miller said, acknowledging that the process is moving along slowly, but surely. "I don't know if we will be able to open this week or next, but that's the last hurdle."
Monday evening's meeting lasted close to two hours with numerous questions from the Board of Adjustment members and from a few concerned Porter residents sitting in the 10-person audience.
"Is there any conflict with federal rules or laws?" asked board member Joe LaBreck.
"That's not part of our per view right now. This is strictly about the zoning code," answered county planning official Curt Crites.
When asked about locations of school bus stops and several environmental issues in relation to the store, Crites again noted to the board that it was not an issue to dwell on.
"The Liquor Control Board is in charge of that particular process," replied Crites. "It's not part of review of our code."
Most of the concerns of the Porter residents in the audience centered on traffic, parking and effects on the rural community.
But they did acknowledge that the work Miller has put into remodeling the old structure has been a positive for the community.
"It looks so much better," said Jennifer Monroe of Porter, who then said she had concerns about the traffic and parking issues it may cause along State Route 12, which has a 55 mph speed limit through the area.
"I worry about unsavory conduct in our neighborhood," said Porter resident Cathy Beerbower. "We don't know what's going to happen, but I guess we're going to find out."
But she also acknowledged the improvements Miller has made to the once-rundown-looking property.
"It looks beautiful. It's brightened up our neighborhood," she said.
Miller tried to put their minds at ease, noting that customers are absolutely prohibited from even opening the packaging or partaking of the product on the property. He said most customers would likely just be in and out. All comings and goings in the area would be monitored by the high-definition cameras mandated by I-502.
In the end, the board approved the permit, acknowledging and apologizing for the the length of the hearing.
"When you're plowing new ground, it's new to the board, so bear with us," said board member Al Gozart.

Why Europe Can't Lose the IMF
Will Greece default? Does Spain face a popular revolt? Can Irish banks hold on?
Little wonder that Europe is clinging to its monopoly on seating the head of the International Monetary Fund. For any number of contingencies, Europeans will need all the friends they can get inside the world's ATM for countries facing bankruptcy.
Christine Lagarde, the French Finance Minister, is their logical choice to put the shine back into the IMF after the resignation of Dominique Strauss-Kahn for alleged sex offenses. She is widely respected and would become the first woman managing director.
More paramount, she is European.
Mr. Strauss-Kahn's sudden departure left Europe stunned, coming right in the middle of discussions on how to keep Greece financially afloat. To do that, Europe needs the help of the IMF. The fund participated in the €110 billion bailout for Greece a year ago, and the rescues of Ireland and Portugal since then.
Europe likes the tradition that a European runs the IMF, just as an American runs the World Bank.
Seen from Paris and Berlin, this is no time to hand over the keys to another part of the world. Last year they warned the euro currency and even the European Union itself might be at stake. Allowing the IMF's attention to wander to developing countries of Africa or Asia won't do. At the very least it could give financial markets the idea that the world's financial fire brigade might be less attentive to alarms sounding from Brussels.
But the developing world isn't backing down.
The bloc of BRICS countries—Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa—this week called for the IMF to break the European stranglehold on the fund's managing director's chair. Candidates from Russia, South Africa and Mexico have been suggested.
The decision now lies with the U.S., where officials worry about Europe. Washington in recent weeks has logged concerns that an implosion in the euro zone could pitch the world into another financial crisis and economic recession.
The U.S. might well agree that now is no time for revolutions in the postwar financial order.

The Titans came on strong Thursday against the visiting East Atlanta Blue. Chase Otten took the mound and showed the Blue a nice mix of off speed and control to set the tone for the game. Titans gave up three runs early, but a nicely turned 4-6-3 double play by Harris Beckley, Matthew Davis and Jake Bressler got the Titans defense started in the second inning. Katie Goldberg's single was followed by an RBI triple off the bat of Colson Logue. Bressler drove in Logue with a single and Grant Matzigkeit's hard hit single was followed by a deep RBI sacrifice fly by Wiley Hartley. Otten helped his cause with a single to left and Edward Shores brought him home with a double to the fence in left. Banks Platford followed with and RBI single of his own then stole second, third and home to put the Titans up 6-3. The fourth inning saw the Blue walk the bases loaded. Shores took advantage with a single to right center for 2 RBI. Beckley doubled to left center to cap off the Titans scoring run and help seal the 12-4 victory.
On Friday the Titans faced the Black Sox from Valdosta. Logue took the mound and the Titans played solid defense behind him only giving up one run in the first. Goldberg squared the match in the second inning with a single, but it was not enough as the Black Sox pitching took hold and they held off the Titans for a 4-1 win. The Titans exited pool play with a solid 1-1 record that earned them a spot in the gold division of bracket play.
Saturday morning started early as the Titans faced the visiting ONYAA Red Knights. The Titans fell behind 2-0 early but all changed in the bottom of the second with a steal of home by Logue and a rip single by Shores. Shores and Otten reached home on crafty base running to put the Titans up 3-2. The Red Knights would not give up though and drew even with a run in the top of the fourth in spite of stellar pitching by Goldberg and diving defensive plays by Otten. The Titans broke loose in the bottom of the forth. Bressler and Logue scored with aggressive base running. Jared Rayman hit a hard sacrifice to push Shores across the plate. Hartley's nice RBI single to right field scored Otten. Then Junta Yasuda knocked a 2 RBI double to score Hartley and Davis. Goldberg singled in Beckley and the Titans ended by winning 11-3.
There was scant time to celebrate on Saturday as the Titans had an hour rest before facing the number one team in the state, the Game On Bulls. The Titans were led by Yasuda's top-notch performance on the mound and Rayman's catching behind the plate. Yasuda fed the Bulls a steady diet of curves, change ups and fast balls that kept them guessing at the plate. In spite of strike out after strike out, the Bulls scattered some hits and a put up a couple of runs early. The Titans defense cooled a potential Bulls rally with a dramatic diving grab by Davis to close out the fifth and enter the sixth down only 2-0. In the top of the sixth, the Titan's batters proved disciplined and their walks enabled the Titans to take a 3-2 lead, forcing the Bulls to change pitching twice. The bottom of the sixth saw the Bulls pull ahead for good however and win 4-3.
The Titans had to dust themselves off quickly so they could face the fourth ranked team in the state, the Savannah Bulldogs. This was the Titans third game of the day and proved to be a battle. The Titans kept it close on the strength of Otten and Bressler's arms. Bressler helped the cause with an RBI liner in the fourth that narrowed the gap to 2-1 Bulldogs. The Titans entered the sixth down 4-1 setting the stage for a dramatic comeback again. Davis started with a line-drive triple to the corner and Yasuda brought him home with a single. Bressler added another and the score was 4-3. The Titans ultimately could not plate another run and ended their tournament run.
Titans players and fans held their heads high with a great performance against the toughest teams 12U baseball has to offer. Grit and determination were on full display as the Titans continued to show their never give up attitude. BTT!!!

ISPs must sabotage your broadband to survive
Dick Pountain uses economics theory to explain why ISPs are forced to throttle your bandwidth
Turning information into money has become a most pressing problem. Much of our information torrent still arrives free of charge, but its owners are desperate to find ways to make us pay for it.
This desperation manifests itself in many ways, some of which don't appear connected with information at all. For instance, those vicious legal spats between Apple and Samsung over patents are ultimately about the ownership of information: Apple's claimed ownership of the idea of touch-based tablet computers, expressed in the form of patents on specific features.
Bandwidth is a valuable commodity, and extracting maximum profit from such commodities is a science that involves strange paradoxes
The arena of telecommunications is a vast battlefield on which two information wars are raging: the last war, not quite over yet, between the old landline-based giant telcos and the new mobile phone operators for your voice-call traffic; and a new war, heating up, between those mobile operators and IT companies such as Apple and Google, which seek to grab all their data traffic via paid-for smartphone and tablet apps.
According to research outfit Ovum, SMS text traffic is worth around $150 billion each year to the mobile operators, but over a third of iPhone users are already switching to IP-based messaging services such as Pinger. Like the old telcos, the mobile operators risk being reduced to merely owning the pipes through which other people's profitable content flows.
Apple is currently having a rather good war, having ruthlessly preserved a proprietary grip on its own hardware ecosystem, and exploited this to make users pay for apps and content through online stores. Its carpet bombing of Adobe Flash – by excluding it from the iPad – is a tactical victory, damming off one whole stream of free content from the internet.
However, one battle isn't the whole war. I recently described my experience of using a 3G iPad in Italy, but what I didn't mention was that the deal I get is grossly inferior to the 3G connection for my laptop (€24 per month for 10GB as opposed to €19 per month unlimited). I grumbled to the chap in the TIM shop, but that's the only deal for iPads: the company presumably analysed the traffic profile of iPad owners and decided that's the only way to profit from them.
Bandwidth is a valuable commodity, and extracting maximum profit from such commodities is a science that involves strange paradoxes. You might think the most profit could be obtained by producing the largest amount of a highly desirable commodity, but that's far from the truth. Pricing is everything, and often maximum profit is achieved by restricting supply to raise the price.
The archetypical case is the De Beers family's rigid control over the world's supply of diamonds, but the oil industry is a pretty good example too. For most of the 20th century there was a large surplus of oil reserves, but oil companies wouldn't pump so much as to lower the price too far. Daniel Yergin's massive tome The Prize: The Epic Quest for Oil, Money and Power describes in entertaining detail the hoops they jumped through to prevent new fields being exploited by rivals. Contrary to much free-market dogma, companies don't enjoy price competition, and very large companies will go to great expense to avoid or subvert it.
The great theorist of such pricing policies was the eccentric economist Thorstein Veblen, the man who gave us the term "conspicuous consumption". He delighted in provoking with mocking and ironic terminology, and the term he chose for this case was "sabotage". A partisan blowing up a railway line; a striking worker dropping a spanner in his machine; an ISP throttling your internet feed; they're all doing the same thing: deliberately reducing production to achieve certain ends. Veblen defined sabotage as "a conscientious withdrawal of efficiency" and didn't regard it as a pejorative term – on the contrary.
"The common welfare in any community which is organised on the price system cannot be maintained without a salutary use of sabotage," he states, advocating "such restriction of output as will maintain prices at a reasonably profitable level and so guard against business depression".
Our current economic crisis is largely one of overproduction. The alternative to sabotage is to do away with prices and make everything free, but that invites massive overconsumption (the so-called "tragedy of the commons"). Eventually things would have to be rationed by other means, often not nice ones. That it's better to pay people enough to buy stuff ought to be obvious, but seems to escape politicians and employers alike.

Bizarre ceremony sees Florence honour Easter tradition
On Easter Sunday every year a unique ceremony takes place that channels the religious fervour of medieval Europe: Scoppio del Carro.
In the centre of the city, the Piazza del Duomo is swarmed by locals and visitors on Florence tours, all flocking to see a giant carro, or cart, stuffed with fireworks and set alight.
The Christian lore behind is that it honours the holy fire kept burning in the city at Easter time for hundreds of years since the Crusades, which was first lit by two shards of stone from the holy sepulchre of Christ, transported around the city on a cart.
Over time the ceremony grew in stature and the cart itself become more and more ornate. Now, it is a beautifully-crafted and decorated wooden structure, laden with pyrotechnics just waiting to go off, much to the delight of the gathered crowds.
For anyone looking for things to do in Florence on Easter Sunday and keen for a break from the conventional sightseeing, this is absolute must.
Why not book to visit Chianti before you travel?

Picture Permit Imprint Indicia
Final Rule.
The Postal Service will revise Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM®) 604.5 to add picture permit imprint indicia standards allowing customers to include business-related color images, such as corporate logos, company brand or trademarks, in the permit indicia area of First-Class Mail® full-service automation letters and postcards, and all Standard Mail® letters.

Nii-Kwashie Aryeetey 202-268-7442 or Suzanne Newman at 202-268-5581.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Back to Top
The use of picture permit imprint indicia is designed to improve the effectiveness of a mailpiece by including a business-related color image within the permit imprint indicia. When tested, indicia placed in the upper right corner of the mailpiece that contained color images did not impede the Postal Service's ability to obtain the required postage payment information from the permit indicia.
Additionally, market research shows that customers believe that picture permit imprint indicia will enhance the perception of mail. Mailers indicated that they would use picture permit imprints for existing mail volume and some said they would increase their mail volumes if picture permit imprint indicia were allowed.
Therefore, this final rule expands current permit imprint standards to allow mailers to, subject to additional Postal Service standards, include a color image of a business-related design, such as corporate logos or trademarks, as part of their permit imprint indicia on full service automation IMb [TM] mailings, for a per piece fee in addition to postage. Mailers interested in picture permit imprint indicia may contact firstname.lastname@example.com for more information.
Pending favorable action by the Postal Regulatory Commission on the Postal Service's March 28, 2012 filing of the price and classification changes related to charges for picture permit imprint indicia, the Postal Service adopts the following changes to Mailing Standards of the United States Postal Service, Domestic Mail Manual (DMM), which is incorporated by reference in the Code of Federal Regulations. See 39 CFR 111.1.

Roasted Brussels SproutsPosted by FoodEater in Homecooked
Inspired by a few different recipes I found online for roasted brussels sprouts, I took what I liked best from each and ran with it. I've never tried roasted brussels sprouts before so I wasn't sure if I'd like them; the last time I had this vegetable it was not prepared well and the results were awful. I was pleased to discover however that when roasted this way they are delectable.
Below is what I came up with, my own version of a roasted brussels sprouts recipe – if something this simple can even be called a recipe. I'm not giving any exact amounts because that's really just not how I roll when I'm cooking on the fly. Plus it's all going to depend on how many brussels sprouts you're planning to cook. Be creative and just season these according to your taste.
Chop off the knobby bits on the end then slice the brussels sprouts in half. The young, small ones taste the best.
In a large bowl mix together the brussels sprouts with:
- just enough olive oil to coat
- two splashes of balsamic vinegar
- one large crushed garlic clove
- couple dashes each of sea salt, black pepper, red chili flakes and nutritional yeast
Place on baking sheet and roast at 400 for about 15 min. Turn and roast for another 5 minutes or until the tops get nicely browned and slightly crispy.
I made a quick dipping sauce of balsamic vinegar, agave nectar and more red chili flakes.
At this point I'm addicted to roasted brussels sprouts and I've been making them almost everyday for the past week. They make for the perfect quick, cheap and super healthy snack, something I'm grateful for right now as I'm attempting to shed the winter weight.Related Posts:

As I mentioned in my Hahei 2009 post, we went to a Macadamia Orchard whilst on holiday. We've been holidaying in Hahei for 7 years now, but hadn't been to the orchard before.
One of the days dawned a little overcast and slightly cooler than normal, so we decided to check out the orchard in the morning (hoping that the sun would be shining in the afternoon so we could swim … and it was).
The orchard was really interesting. The German guy working there was kind enough to give us an impromptu tour and explain how the nuts are grown and harvested.
We also did a little sampling. Yum.🙂
We bought a bag of dark chocolate macadamias, which didn't even last the 10 minute car trip back to the holiday house. We also got a packet of lemon & macadamia rub to put on fish or chicken before cooking. We tried it later in the week on some BBQ'd prawns – delish!
Here are a few photos from our trip to the Nut Farm (as Tyler liked to call it):
This is what the nuts look like on the tree:
And here's what they look like once they've fallen off:
Aunty Leah, Tyler, Ethan & Rob searching for macadamias (Ethan was a bit cold, so he borrowed Rob's shirt):
Checking out the chickens (this is the ONLY photo of me from our holiday … I was always behind the camera):
And I can't help but share this one of Tyler, looking totally adorable:

a 1984 Trans Am so that it looks exactly like the Knight Rider car.
The car is a sleek, shiny black with the trademark red scanner light moving back and forth on the hood. The dashboard instrument panel
Click to view image: '85738f2ec6a8-00a.jpeg'looks like something one might see in the cockpit of a fighter jet. It includes buttons marked "arm laser," "eject left" and "smokescreen."
Any science fiction geek from the 1980s would immediately recognize this as KITT (Knight Industries Two Thousand), the futuristic car driven by David Hasselhoff in the TV show "Knight Rider." (The show originally ran from 1982 to 1986.)
"This is as close as you can possibly get without buying one of the Universal cars [one of the cars from the original show]," said owner Leni Gronros of Rockport.
Restoring a 1984 Pontiac Trans Am and turning it into the "Knight Rider" car was a dream project that took Gronros years to complete. He has only had the car on the road since August, and already it is attracting attention.
Gronros made his debut as the new "Knight Rider" in the Maine Lobster Festival Parade in Rockland and has been out meeting with other local hot rod enthusiasts in the area. Often, he said with pride, his vehicle will draw the most attention at a gathering of show cars.
Gronros, 42, said he used to enjoy watching the TV show with his father.
"It was the personality of the car in the show," he said when asked what has kept him so interested all these years.
He gives actor William Daniels a great deal of credit as the voice of the car, KITT.
"He put humanity into an inanimate object and the way the characters interacted was captivating," Gronros said.
He said he is also inspired by the show's theme.
"One man can make a difference," Gronros said. He said that belief has translated into his work with Rotary International.
"I watch the show because of David Hasselhoff," added Gronros' wife, Kimberlee Graffam, owner of Graffam Brothers Seafood Market in Rockport.
For Gronros, this is actually his second attempt. He originally tried working with a 1989 Trans Am, and then changed to the 1984 model because it was better suited to the transition.
The front end comes from a mold made from an actual prop from the original show. "eBay is a wonderful, marvelous thing," Gronros said, when asked where he got the part.
The scanner light was a Christmas present from his wife.
Click to view image: 'f3ea1e203aac-6a00e008c6b4e588340120a591f97a970b320pi.jpg' The dashboard was an $8,000 investment. In addition to working on it himself over the years, he worked with Steel's Real Rods & Customs in Warren.
One of the challenges in replicating the iconic vehicle, he said, is that one never really sees the whole car at once in the TV show. The viewer is shown one piece in one scene and another in a different scene. In addition, the show used hundreds of different cars, crashing and destroying many of them. In some cases, a car used for an action sequence might only have had a few alterations to make it look like the "Knight Rider" car, when vehicles in closeup shots were much more detailed.
Gronros said he still has more work to do on the project. Eventually, all of the buttons on his instrument panel will perform some function. In addition, the two TV screens in the dash board are now only able to play DVDs, but eventually, he said, they will provide feed from cameras on the front and back of the car, just as they did on the original.
The vehicle in the show had a number of James Bond-style features. It could eject passengers, inflate parachutes, create oil slicks and spread smoke behind it to hinder pursuing vehicles.
"I just about have the smoke screen worked out," Gronros said and laughed.
Eventually, he hopes to drive KITT across the country to Las Vegas for a meeting of the "Knight Rider" fan club, specifically Knight Registries for owners of replica cars.

PitBull4 is a continuation of PitBull.
Differences from PitBull 3:
- It's mostly done, but not entirely done thus why there are still only betas (despite this it is still very stable).
- Documentation is written before functions
- Much easier for third-party extensions.
- Options will be much, much simpler. In 3.0, there's about 200 panels that you can mess with, it's overwhelming. I want to bring this down to somewhere around 10.
- Layouts are defined deterministically and unit groups use the layout rather than ad-hoc layouts on a per-unit basis. This will make setting up your unit frames far, far easier.
- Due to some decisions made, 4.0 is actually more configurable than 3.0. As a layout designer, you will have a lot more control over how things look. You can have different fonts on the same frame, different textures, more precise positioning, and a whole slough of other things.
- CPU Efficiency will be taken much more seriously.
- It uses Ace3 instead of Rock.

do these frame names have spaces in them?

Is there a way to copy your interface to a notepad document (like with Pitbull3) to share with characters who are not on the same account?
Forgive me if it's there and I'm simply unable to find it

Ah, I figured that was what did it...But everytime I tried, it wouldn't show...The frames take like....3 million minutes to show the changes...Thank you for that. Any reason why it takes forever to change?

Uh, forgive me if this has been answered but I have 2 major problems with pitbull4 (Been yearning to try Pitbull for months, and since 4 supposedly has less stuff you'd have to set up, I decided I'd try it compared to XPerl...) Now, my 2 problems with pitbull4 are as follows; 1. There is MAJOR input delay between adding spacing to party or pet frames, and it actually happening. I tested it both with and without Reduced user interface input lag (that option in WoW's Interface options) and it didn't seem to make a different. Why is this so slow to change? 2. My raid frames are just one loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong vertical line. This is what'll kill me. I have to have them turned off right now, and if I start doin more than 5 man groups, being a tank or dps user, I need to know if other people are getting hit because I'm not making enough threat, or if there's something attacking my allies that I can blast or distract while the tank is busy...And if there's no way to make multiple columns or rows or w/e, I may be trying out Grid or AG or another unit frame, because nothing I did seemed to work... Also, by 'taking a long time to change' I mean I'd add vertical spacing for the Party frame, and it'd take 5+ minutes to show the change...How can I fix these problems, or what is causing them? Other than that, nice Unit frames.

I've sorted through the various posts and haven't found any information about these issues, but please forgive me if they're in there and I missed them. I am having an issue with re-enabling combat text once it's disabled. It seems that once I disable combat text on a certain layout, I cannot re-enable it. If I create a new text, I cannot get it to show the text as combat text (I am horrible with dogtags but I don't think I can configure it there). Secondly, I really liked the way vehicle units would replace my pet bar when possessed. Unfortunately, that has been changed to replace my Unit when possessed, and the player defaults to the pet unit. The issue with this is that I don't have combat text enable on my unit since I use another mod for that, and cannot re-enable it (see above). Nor do I have auras and buffs enabled on my unit because again, I use a different mod for that. If you are going to keep the vehicle bars as the player bars, is there a way to have the units swap or display certain information when possessing a vehicle? In other words, I need to see the damage a vehicle takes, as well as the buffs it has when I'm in it...
mariondrew May 30, 2009 at 00:28 UTC - 0 likes
In Pitbull3, you can change the color of the bar color, as well as the bar's background color. Been banging my head against all these options and do not yet see how that is done in Pitbull4. Can anybody assist?
Sofer May 29, 2009 at 18:15 UTC - 0 likes
Alright, my frames now look gorgeous, however there is one thing, which I simply can't find: How I can change the size of the text on buffs? I am not using Buff/Debuff remaining spiral, but only the seconds/minutes. However, they look quite big with Bazooka-font and so on.
Anguish May 29, 2009 at 09:09 UTC - 0 likes
Thanks authors for the best thing since sliced bread! I've been using Pitbull forever and I love it!
One thing I noticed on my priest is that some heals only show on my own bar, where I would expect them to be visible on more. I am referring to "Prayer of Healing", which should show incoming heals on a whole group, and "Binding Heal", which should show incoming heals on me and my target.
I am sure I have seen heals appear on a whole group, but I guess that was from someone else not using Pitbull?
Keep up the good work!

BROOKDALE - Brothers Doug and Carl McManaman have completed their 100-mile trek on snowshoes.
Brothers complete 100-mile snowshoe trek
The final steps of their 250,000-step journey occurred at 11:20 a.m., Saturday, in a field where the Hastings Road meets Highway 204, near Cumberland North Academy.
"Each mile was two-and-a-half laps and was about 2,500 steps, so with 100 miles you're looking at about 250,000 steps all together," Doug, 65, said.
The brothers began their journey by walking around Dickey Park in Amherst, but finished at the Hastings Road field.
"I wore a walk counter to make sure a lap around each track was the same distance," Carl, 68, said.
Each track required two-and-a-half laps to make a mile.
"It took us 33 hours all together and most days we'd go three to six miles and the most we went was eight miles," Doug said.
"The first lap is the worst until your legs get used to it, then you feel better. This is my second 100 miles. I did it two years ago. Last year I never took a step on these (snowshoes) so I thought I'd do a 100 miles this year."
His brother is happy he went along for the ride.
"It got my blood pressure down," Carl said. "I had to go to the doctor last week for bloodwork and he put that tester on me for my blood pressure and he said it was perfect. I hadn't heard that for two or three years, they always said it's a little high."
Doug walks on wooden snowshoes, while Carl's are aluminum.
"A pair of these, which are good snowshoes, are about $160," Carl said. "That's all you have to buy, that and a bit of will power. I don't know how much that costs."
Will the brothers continue snowshoeing?
"Oh yeah, we're going out to the bird sanctuary next," Doug said. "There are some nice hills out there. It's more challenging."

Fifty years ago the field of human embryology was incomplete; prior to that time the anatomy of early human embryos was still unknown, and there was much to be learned about the older stages of human embryonic development. It is now understood that human organs result from step-by-step differentiations of the growing human embryo. Research by renowned embryologist Erich Blechschmidt, MD, showed that differentiations are not only the result of a gene effect, but are also brought about through growth initiated by extragenetic (occurring outside the gene) information. Without this extragenetic information the differentiation would not begin.
Dr. Blechschmidt and coauthor Raymond Gasser, PhD, maintain that Haeckel's biogenetic law (ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny) was an erroneous attempt to explain developmental processes. Blechschmidt's human embryological investigations showed that Darwin's principles (mutation and selection) are likely valid for the origin of the species, but that they cannot explain the ontogenesis of the organs. The ontogenesis of each individual cannot be derived from phylogenetic facts. The authors stress that a clear distinction must be made between the vast field of phylogenetics and the much more exact and understandable field of ontogenetics—particularly the process of differentiation—and their goal is to present not only the abstract biokinetic principles of differentiation, but the originality of embryonic human beings as well. Their knowledge of developmental movements leads to their conclusion that differentiation is an undivided biodynamic process that occurs during development and includes the chemical processes as well.
Logically organized into two sections (the first covers early metabolic fields and includes chapters on the one-cell human ovum, the early embryo, blood vessels, the nervous system, head region, trunk, and limbs; the second describes metabolic fields in later developmental stages, distinguishing fields of corrosion, densation, contusion, distusion, retention, dilation, liquation, and detraction), Biokinetics and Biodynamics of Human Differentiation warrants reading by thoughtful professionals in a number of fields concerned with embryonic differentiation. A new preface by Dr. Gasser addresses how the book's principles and findings were and are understood in the field of human embryology.

Blackhawks Ambassador Stan Mikita's legendary tenure with the Blackhawks is reflected in record books, the rafters above the ice in the United Center, and in bronze on West Madison Street. Oct. 19 is a special anniversary in Stosh's calendar, but do you know why? Read on for The Friday Five: Mikita's Dates to Remember.
1. April 16, 1961 – A Stanley Cup Champion
The Chicago Blackhawks won their third Stanley Cup in team history following a 5-1 victory over the Red Wings in Game 6 in Detroit. Mikita led all skaters with a playoffs-high 6 points and a 0.5 goals per game average. His 5 assists and 11 points were good for fourth.
2. April 4, 1973 – Setting Franchise Playoff Records
In a 7-1 thrashing of the St. Louis Blues in Game 1 of the 1973 Stanley Cup Quarterfinals, Mikita dished out 5 assists, setting the record for most playoff assists and points in one game that has stood for nearly forty years (Jonathan Toews tied Mikita's playoff points in a game record with 3 goals and 2 assists against the Vancouver Canucks on May 7, 2010). Stosh also holds the franchise record for most career playoff assists (91), playoff games played (155), and career playoff points (150).
3. Oct. 19, 1980 – Sweater Retired
After his 22-year NHL career with the Blackhawks, Mikita's No. 21 was ceremoniously raised to the rafters of Chicago Stadium. Mikita is the only Blackhawk to ever don the number, having played all of his franchise best 1,394 games in the Indian Head sweater No. 21.
4. Mar. 7, 2008 – Named a Blackhawks Ambassador
Stosh was named a Blackhawks Ambassador at a pregame ceremony at the United Center on Friday, March 7, 2008 with fellow Blackhawks legend Bobby Hull. The ambassadorship represented the organization's connection to their celebrated history and the new culture of the franchise.
5. Oct. 22, 2011 – Statue Unveiling
On this Saturday evening, Stan Mikita was immortalized in bronze on West Madison Street alongside Bobby Hull. The two statues face the lot where Chicago Stadium once stood.
"I thought by now I would be forgotten, and instead, I keep being remembered," Mikita said after the statues were unveiled.

Black Cohosh (cimicifuga racemosa) is a native North American plant that has been used for thousand of years by Native Americans to treat women's health issues. Although the results of scientific studies have been mixed, some researchers have found that black cohosh is effective in alleviating both the physical and psychological symptoms of menopause, including anxiety, vaginal dryness, and hot flashes. Other studies have shown that the herb is useful in treating the premenstrual discomfort provoked by hormonal changes, including breast tenderness, irritability, and low moods.
Black cohosh is frequently used as an alternative to hormone replacement therapy, and some studies suggest that the herb acts as phytoestrogen, binding to estrogen receptors and influencing the release of pituitary hormones. However, to date scientists haven't found conclusive data that black cohosh has an estrogen-like effect on the body.
Other Potential Healing Benefits
Black cohosh also shows promise in treating a number of other conditions, including arthritis, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, asthma, and joint pain. Its healing potential is truly impressive and merits rigorous scientific evaluation.
A member of the buttercup family, black cohosh is a perennial shrub with serrated leaves and clusters of tiny white flowers. Herbal preparations are made from the plant's roots and rhizomes, which contain a number of glycosides, flavonoids, and terpenes. Black cohosh is widely available in health food stores in tablet and tincture form.
Black Cohosh in Ayurvedic Medicine
While black cohosh wasn't available in ancient India, it can be analyzed according to ayurvedic principles. The herb contains the bitter and pungent tastes and has a cooling effect on the body. Black cohosh can balance both Pitta and Kapha; prolonged use may aggravate Vata dosha. Learn more about the doshas.
Although more research is needed, black cohosh has a long history of safety. However, because of its potential stimulating effect on the uterine muscles, black cohosh is not recommended for women who are pregnant.

This week's post on Union Bay Watch shows a couple of local Pileated Woodpeckers defending their new nest. Is the male bird Elvis, the PW we have been seeing around Montlake, or is he an impersonator? Take a look and see what you think.
One thought on "Union Bay Watch: Elvis Impersonator?"
This past week, I have twice seen a pair of pileated woodpeckers on top of the wooden power pole at the Arboretum end of East Newton. I don't know if it is Elvis-he was not wearing a white suit or sunglasses, but he was singing and drumming on the pole!

Polaris Industries is working with Minnesota dealer Digger's Polaris & Marine to provide Sportsman ATVs and RANGER side-by-side vehicles to help with the recovery efforts of the Interstate 35W bridge disaster.
"As a Minnesota company, we share in the sorrow this tragedy has left on our state," said Polaris president and COO Bennett Morgan. "It's our hope that the units provided make this very difficult effort a bit easier for all involved."
The Prior Lake dealer will provide six Sportsman 500 ATVs and six Polaris RANGER 4x4s to the Minneapolis Police Department and OSHA immediately to aid in the effort. Polaris vehicles also were used in the recovery and clean up efforts of Hurricane Katrina, at Ground Zero and during various Minnesota flood relief efforts.
"When our dealership was contacted to provide ATVs and side-by-side vehicles for the recovery effort, there was no doubt in my mind we would make it happen," said Doug Nagle, owner of Digger's Polaris & Marine. "This tragedy has hit very close to home and providing these units is our way to help with the effort."

Many people exert an amazing wealth of common sense when they're on their home turf. But put these same individuals on vacation and they throw all caution to the wind.
It's easy to understand why. We're prodded to get out of our comfort zone, push our limits, to do something novel on vacation. Who wants to post a selfie that shows you drinking a craft beer from the safety of your beachfront balcony when you could record a video of yourself stalking grizzlies in Montana or bungee jumping in Queenstown, New Zealand?
While I'm all about exploring new lands and discovering hidden treasures, I know how illness or injury can ruin a trip. I also know my physical and psychological limits. Sure, I push my comfort zone, but always within reason.
So on a vacation in Chicago, I checked out the architectural wonders and culinary delights, bicycled around the waterfront and explored the city's many green spaces. My friend, however, was tempted by the flying trapeze because, after all, she could see modernist buildings and parks anywhere and, well, she's not a foodie like I am.
My friend claimed she was plenty ready for the trapeze because she was a regular yoga practitioner. (How that set her up for an aerial silks class is beyond me.) She didn't bother telling anyone that she had a lot of overuse injuries in her lower extremities because of her dance background. So, she did several maneuvers while being suspended by her ankles. And three weeks later, she was still limping from microtears to both Achilles' tendons.
Then there was my novice mountain biking trip based out of Winter Park, Colorado. Our gung-ho guide wasn't thrilled by what he termed my "negative attitude towards trail obstacles." At the end of a week, I was the only one of the seven people who wasn't decked out in Band-Aids, ace bandages and gauze pads. Was I the best mountain biker? Hardly. But I was the only one who got off my bike and walked it over or around pretty much every last obstacle.
Finland's Lapland region is a winter wonderland with all manner of thrilling adventures, including dog sledding and snowmobiling. Neither are my favorite activities—I prefer long-distance Nordic skiing—but I took myself out of my comfort zone, on my terms. On the snowmobile, I was the slowest by far, even though almost everyone else in my group (especially two who shared a snowmobile) egged me on to go faster on the straightaways and numerous curves. We'd been traveling for more than an hour when I saw a commotion up ahead. That speedy pair had hit a large rock that was concealed by snowdrifts. They were thrown from the machine and missed slamming into a tree by inches.
And, as far as the dog sledding goes, none of us were that skillful. So I opted to sit in the rear, rather than drive the dogs. Seeing that the wooden sled had no cushioning whatsoever and anticipating that this could be a hard ride, I opted to sit on my ultra-fluffy down jacket, using it as a shock absorber. At the end of the many-mile, undulating journey, I was in fine shape, but I couldn't say as much for one young woman who I knew had a previous disc herniation. (She was on pain meds and ice packs for several days afterward.)

A Sheldon couple arrived home to find a stranger asleep on their couch, police said.
Police charged 47-year-old Mark Crothers of Sheldon with unlawful trespass and violating the conditions of his release after responding to the call at the couple's East Sheldon Street home, Vermont State Police said.
Crothers had apparently made himself a snack before taking a nap on the couch, police said. The homeowners, Logan and Kaylen Kane, told police they had no clue who Crothers was when they discovered him asleep in their home at about 5:30 p.m. Friday.
Crothers was booked at the St. Albans barracks and then taken to a detox center, police said, after a breath test showed he was well above the legal limit for intoxication.

The band performs once each year with a guest artist; recent guests have included John DeSalme (sax) of the U.S. Army jazz ensemble, and David Esleck, prominent Richmond-area pianist.
The Jazz Ensemble B was formed in 1996. Since 2006 it has been directed by saxophonist Andrew Brock, Instructor of Music.
