my good that that just a massive amount of lead. I want to do a NEF but just so may other projects. I should send in my 45-70 nef action and get a barrel for it. Will this action be suitable for the ultra slugger barrel I forget.
Answer: 2000 gr = 0.285714 lbThat's what? 1/4 pound?
OR 0 lb and 4.57 oz
And WOW is right.
"Government is not the solution to our problem, government is the problem" Ronald Reagan
I don't know. You'll have to call NEF.
got 3" chambered 12ga set up to test loads with RE-17.
Many guys want loads for 3" chambered slug barrels as they
come from the factory., So I put extra 24" Savage barrel I had
on a Mauser GEHA bolt action. Rifled Savage barrel is modern
steel with .93" muzzle diameter. Original barrel on the GEHA
was only .82" at muzzle. I added an extra rear bolt locking lug
onto the Mauser bolt. Using up stuff to make test gun.
Any modern steel slug barrel, whether on bolt, autoloading,
pump, or break action gun with same muzzle diameter will handle
these RE-17 loads. Max loads were all 115gr of RE-17 in plastic
3" cases, all with seals and cushion wads. Can't get no more under
the seals, cushions and slugs in 3". Which is why I like 3.5"
chambers. With 437 gr Brenekkee and 420 gr in BPI sabot got
over 1900. With 520gr Lyman in shot cup 1850. With 600gr Dixie
got 1800. With 870 gr hard lead got 1600. This is 24" barrel,
so longer barrels will get more. In comparison to IMR4227 loads,
these are about the same speed as using 90gr of 4227. But this
powder is so much easier on cases and guns, with about .004"
less base cup expansion. It works great in 3" and really gets the
speed in 3.5" cases, as in 3.5" cases,as seal/wads about same,
extra length for powder. The 870gr load is max peak pressure of
16,000 psi. Muzzle pressure is about 3500-4000 psi.
I'll have pic of the Mauser in few days.ED
Here is picture of my 695 Mossberg bolt action.
It is 28ga FH, a 3.25" long brass case. Was a
12ga with light barrel. I also have a heavy 12ga
barrel chambered for 3.5" cases and a .500" barrel
for my 499HE a real long brass case. Also I am
doing my 499HE in a NEF. You can get a NEF with
MMouse 500S&W and run my reamer in and get real
power.The 395,495,595 actions will work also,
as they like the 695 have double bolt lugs
and a loading port that can be lengthened.
And they have a nice style...Ed
We get asked about finned slugs for
12ga smooth bores and if they take high
speed. Well they'll do just as good at high
speed as the locked on wad stablized Brenekkee
OK slug I tested in my smoothbore 1887 with long
barrel, in first pic. Second pic is a Corbin
finned slug I will get and test later. Third is
BPI AQ slug I will test, few weeks in the 87.
I'm going to test also in a regular smooth bore
12ga slug barrel of medium muzzle size,
about .92" diameter like the Savage 210 barrel.
One gun I found with decent size diameter are
some of Stevens smoothbores..Ed
Here is picture of the Mauser GEHA shotgun I
setup with an Savage 210 rifled barrel. Used a Savage
plastic stock also. It is setup with the original 3"
chamber. I have many guys who want ideas and slug/load
combination's tested in regular rifled slug barrels, so
this is the one. Most testing will be 3" plastic cases.
Barrel 24" long, .93" regular slug size muzzle diameter.
The GEHA was originally converted from 98 Mausers in
Germany in the 20s, to 12ga by reaming outl the front lug seats
and using the rear safety lug. I added a second rear
bearing lug and it handles 15,000 psi loads ok.
The cases come out with the weight of the bolt.
That will be max pressure used in it, with that slug gun
barrel thickness. Example load is 115gr of RE17 in 3"
plastic case, with 520 gr Lyman cast slug at 1850 plus fps.
This load expands the plastic case base cups about .005",
in comparison, a REM factory Buckhammer and other super
mag turkey and goose loads expands .010".
And we have over 300 fps more velocity.Ed
Testing some .660" diameter 630 gr hard cast
slugs in the red WIN wadcup in 3.5" plastic
case. Tested in rifled long barrel in 12ga
NEF about 2100 fps. Greg Sappington makes
these. They are hollow point. 3" group at
50yds, peep sight, bad eyes. I also fired
a couple to see if they'd work in my long
brass cased 16GA FH shown in the picture.
They work ok, so Greg has a double duty
slug.They'd work in 16ga plastic also.
The 16ga was held at 1500 as the barrel
isn't heavy, on Stevens/Revelation 16ga. Ed
Comparing brass cases.I tell folks who are stepping
up in 12ga power from 3.5 plastic, you can get 3.5" brass cases
from Rocky Mtn Cartridge. Here you can see how heavy
and nice they are compared to regular brass cases.
They also make shorter 3" brass cases also.
They fit the chamber tight and are long enough to
get some serious thumping power.And they have a
super strong, thick , solid head, not a weak balloon head
like regular ones on the left in pic.Ed
I don't see the shells on their site? Do they offer longer shells for the 12G f h?

I really enjoyed my stay. Room was spacious, comfortable and clean (might be a little bit noisy due to wooden floor above). Mornings you can have a walk (ca. 30min.) to nearest PATH station or just take a bus. I recommend to take Uber from Exchange Place PATH station (7usd) while coming back at night as neighborhood does not feel super safe after dusk. However I must highlight it that when it comes to price/quality ratio I give a very good note.
Where to start first . This place is very interesting in many ways but not in a possitive way. Yes , the place is close to Manhattan but paradoxically pretty difficult to get there . If you want to get there by public transportation , you need to change 3 times. From subway to path train and to lightrail or bus. Or you can also use the taxi (from Grove street it is around 7dollars + tips) In general if you want to get to the city it will cost you more than 50 min of travelling with public transportation. Area of this flat is as someone mentioned before veeeery sketchy even dangerous( after dark I will not recommend use of a public transportation to get to your address of staying , definitely taxi! ) We were even speaking to police officer who was paradoxically in charge of that district (Jersey city) and he warned us about this area, because of the drug violence – he literaly said this! We experienced some difficulties with the room also. There was a gap between the AC and window, therefore the second night came a little visitor(mouse). The gap was fixed just with the stiff paper. We cannot imagine how this room works in winter time, because it was relatively cold there. When we came into the appartment, there were no soap to wash hands with. We didn´t have any instructions, even the basics, how to get to appartment and so... Be aware of the american locks, mainly in this room, because you can easily get stuck in front of the room meanwhile your keys are inside of the room. Locks works here very differently from EU ones, so we recommend to take your keys with you even within the flat. When we were trying to contact Sylvia and discuss some matters about the appartment and surroundings, she promised she would come the next morning but she didn´t show up even contact us back. Consider your stay here.
We stayed for two weeks in this room.
The area at first, seemed a bit sketchy but after talking to someone who's been living there for over 3 month, everything was great.
Nothing happened to us (don't judge the neighborhood just by the looks :) ).
The room and the house in general are really cool and you have everything you need (bathroom, nice kitchen, living room, AC).
Also going to the city is pretty easy, it takes you about 25min with the LightRail and the PATH from Exchange Place.
I would totally recommend it to everyone who is looking for a affordable place to stay while doing a NYC trip.
very nice apartment - very friendly and reliable host - costs reasonable - absolutely recommendable!
It's just been a pleasure to stay there...
I recommend to use google.maps for getting out and in house, just click the public transportation button and you'll get a choice of all bus stations around the door. Bus connections are quite reliable...
Nice apartment very quiet but wayyyy to far to get back and forth to the City the train stop running at 10 so we where stuck until 5 am.
Sylwia was a great host, everthing as described in the offer and always there if you had questions concering the appartment or itineraries.
We arrived in Manhattan by coach and it required three different public transports (Metro, PATH and Light rail system) to get to the house. We had let know in advance when we'd arrive but she was out, meaning we had to wait 40 minutes outside with our bags - we tried calling but she didn't answer. When she arrived we were hurriedly shown to our room and within 5 minutes she left; we didn't see her again.
Toilet seat was broken, there was no toilet roll (another guest asked her about this and was told to buy it himself) and there were not enough bowls or cups for the number of people staying.
Most significantly it took at best an hour to get to down-town Manhattan, and cost about 10$ each way. Factor this in when comparing here with a location in, say, Queens, which is within the Metro boundary - for which you can purchase a 7-day pass for about 29$.
The place on the whole was not TOO bad for the money in terms of cleanliness and facility (free WiFi), but things like having to go get your own toilet roll and simply her lack of presence made it not very homely and is not somewhere that can be recommended for someone sight-seeing New York or who otherwise needs to be near it.
Very nice, clean and comfortable room not far from Manhattan. But you need 3 different public transport services (so tickets) to get to Manhattan.
Very nice place to stay, clean, big, quiet, cheap, free internet. The only thing is the trip between the path and the house. I thought it was close enought to get there by foot but it's too far. So in the morning you have to take the bus, every 20 minutes on the week and 45 in the week end, and on the way back, after 9 PM you have to pick up a taxi. (7 dollars)
So it's a good place to stay, the neighborhood is very kind (try the breakfeast in the corner of community pawn and woodward) but be aware of the time to reach the place.

Child pimp from Colorado Springs gets 7 years in prison
Trevor Baker sentenced Friday
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - A 21-year-old man was sentenced to seven years in prison and must register as a sex offender after he plead guilty to pimping a 16-year-old girl.
Trevor Baker sobbed in court when the judge announced the sentence. He faced between one and 12 years behind bars.
Baker admitted to pimping a 16-year-old friend in a scheme to make money, but said she told him she was 18. He said he pimped the girl to three different men, and he and the girl split the $450 they made. The girl's mother found out and contacted the FBI, and eventually CSPD caught Baker and the girl at a motel in May 2012.
"I understand I made a mistake, but she made a mistake too," Baker said at the sentencing hearing Friday.
He apologized, but also said he'd been unfairly treated.
"I just want everybody to know I'll never do it again, and I'm ready to become a man," Baker said.
The victim's mother also spoke before the judge and said Baker knew her daughter was 16 and asked her to recruit more girls from school.
"My daughter has had tremendous nightmares due to the things she was subjected to in Trevor Baker's escort service," the mother said.
The prosecution read a letter from the teen where she described her low self-esteem and how Baker told her about the "glamorous world of escorting" where other girls he worked with made enough money in a few weeks to buy a car.
"I could have been raped or killed by any of these men," she wrote, later saying: "I don't think (Trevor's) learned any lesson in this yet."
Judge Barney Iuppa said the case "rises to the level of a Shakespearean tragedy" and is sad for all involved. He said he wanted to consider probation for sentencing, but said that Baker had been "flipping off the system" since his arrest; violating the restraining order for the victim and missing or coming late to court-ordered appearances.
The victim's mother said she was satisfied with the sentence and Baker got more time in prison that she had expected.

Herman Miller Sayl Side Chair with Sled Base
designed by Yves Behar
At A Glance:
The Sayl Side Chair with Sled Base is the lighter, go-anywhere little brother of Herman Miller's Sayl Task Chair, the latest creation from the offices of Yves Behar, a San Fransisco designer whose reputation precedes him as a world-class designer. While not achieving the frameless, suspension-bridge-like design of the task chair, the side chair is beautiful in its own right, unique, and priced affordably.
What's To Like:
Its sweeping, squared-off back and low-gravity frame. The Sayl Side Chair is easily one of Herman Miller's most easy-on-the-eyes side chairs. And at $384.00 for the Sled Base version ($349.00 for the 4-Leg Base), the price is not what you'd expect to pay for an Yves Behar design.
What's Not to Like:
The Sayl Side Chair is a bit on the small side, so if you need an expansive seat and seat back, you might want to look elsewhere. Aside from that, there isn't much to say. It's a nice side chair for a nice price.
The Bottom Line:
This is a chair with the looks of a piece of sculpture, and its curving, relaxed back feels great to lean into. It doesn't get much better than that.
The Sayl Side Chair with Sled Base Features:
- Suspension Back for firm but yielding support
- 92 percent recyclable environmentally responsible construction
- Fabric-upholstered seat for comfort
- For carpet, choose glides or none; for use on hard floors, choose nylon glides
- Also available: Sayl Side Chair with 4-Leg Base
The Herman Miller Sayl Side is also known by the following manufacturer Item Numbers: AS5, AS5SSN, AS5SSP.
Materials & Measurements
The Sayl Side Chair has an upholstered seat with foam padding. The Sayl Chair's overall components are constructed from plastic, steel, foam, and textile. Glides are vinyl.
All base finishes are cast aluminum.
Overall: 34.25" h x 24" w x 22.5" d
Environmental Information
The Sayl Side Chair carries MBDC Cradle to Cradle certification, meaning that at every step of the design and manufacturing process, it has been made as environmentally friendly as possible. The first step in the process is a chemical evaluation of the materials used in the chair. At the deepest level possible, Herman Miller inspects their products for any possibly harmful element within them. Doing this ensures that every product sold by Herman Miller, including the Sayl Side Chair, is totally safe for the air, for the environment, and for the quality of your workspace.
After that, each product is evaluated on whether or not it's easy to take apart. Because products like the Sayl Side Chair are so often recyclable when broken down into their component parts, making that breakdown easy is essential to actually getting the products to end up in a recycling barrel, and not a landfill or a dump. The Sayl Side Chair is easy to take apart, easy to recycle, and therefore much more likely to have a negligible environmental impact.
Recycling is obviously important to the environment, and to Herman Miller. That's why the Sayl Side Chair is 92 percent recyclable at the end of its useful life. That's a huge number, and it far outpaces the competition in terms of sustainable, recyclable manufacturing processes. Much of the material used to build the chair has itself been recycled.

Comments about Herman Miller Sayl Side Chair, Sled Base:
We actually use these as dining chairs with the Eames table. The sled base has some give that allows for a rocking chair feel that is quite pleasant.
Pros- Well built, unique looking, very comfortable, web seat back cradles you
Cons- I was mistaken and thought the web back would be fabric. It is an industrial style rubber that is very durable and comfortable. I was just expecting something different
- The painted frame legs can chip if pushed against a metal table leg too hard. In hindsight I would have gotten the polished aluminum option instead.

Excerpt: "Last week, the New York Giants released linebacker Michael Boley, running back Ahmad Bradshaw and defensive tackle Chris Canty. All of them were key members of the 2011-12 championship team. The cuts leave some holes on the depth chart, but the G-Men may not have to look outside the organization to fill them. Here are five Giants in line for bigger roles next season as a result of the team's recent roster shakeup.
Marvin Austin (DT) -- The release of Canty opens the door for Austin, who will be entering his third season in 2013. Unfortunately, he missed all of 2011 and half of 2012 due to injuries. Next season could be a make-or-break year for the second-round pick out of North Carolina. The Giants are thin at defensive tackle and will give Austin a chance to play, but must stay healthy and on the field.
Jacquian Williams (LB) -- At this point, Williams is the logical choice to fill the void left by Boley. The second-year pro appeared in 10 games and made 30 tackles last season. Williams is a speedy defender who may be able to help improve the team's run defense (ranked No. 25 in the NFL in 2012). A sixth-round selection in 2011, he played in 16 games and made 78 tackles as a rookie." Read more...

Town Square
Recycling theft: PA enforcement policy?
Original post made by Pillaged Recycler, Ventura, on Apr 18, 2007
Today is garbage/recycling day in my neighborhood.
I used to see the occasional recycling thief out and about early in the morning. Today I saw two active on my street at the same time and a third came by later. Two of them were using van-sized vehicles. And I wasn't specifically "on the lookout", so there could have been more.
This concerns me for two reasons:
(1) The city recycling program is being shorted revenues fromthe materials being put out. I assume this causes an increase in collection fees.
(2) People become used to random folks pawing through recycling/garbage materials, allowing identity theft perpetrators free rein without causing alarm.
Is this illegal? Does PA have an enforcement policy with
regards to this activity? Who do I call? Is this as rampant in other neighborhoods?

Last I knew, it was illegal to remove recycling from the curb side cans that residents put out for recycling. You could verify that with the PD and then candidly ask them if they would respond if you called the next time you see it taking place. It maybe too low on their list to get attention.
I recall reading once that the reason it was illegal is the income from the profitable recycling items subsidize the program.
I dont know if all this is still true, I think I read it back when they gave us those milk crate like bins to recycle with.

Im sure that your concern has everything to do with the financial health of the recycling program and nothing to do with "undersirables" in your neighborhood.

If "undersirables" == thieves, then yes, I dont want them in my neighborhood. Do you?

Thieves. Stealing the....stuff you threw out....

Well it was not me that they took from, but lets say it was, I would respond...
I did not throw it out, I put it out for collection. I want the city to get the revenue, not him.
btw, it is illegal in mountain view too. This is a pretty typical city ordinance. Here is an MV reference for your convenience

Im well aware that its illegal in MV, and I have personally experienced the "horror" of having my empty Cab bottles pilfered. We had an elderly gent in my neighborhood a few years back who would collect a couple of grocery bags of bottles every other Thursday morning. Id guess he needed the cash to buy a bit of food. I spoke to him once, asking him to be aware of the noise he made and that some people might still be sleeping. He was quite courteous.
But Im sure that the city needed the $4 more then he did...

There is a big difference between that scenerio and the one originally described. In your scenerio, I would have set them aside for him, so he did not have to wait for trash day to steal them.

Once you put recyclables out on the street they belong to PASCO (per PAMC 5.20.090).
Palo Alto Municipal Code 5.20.090 Collection and ownership of recyclable materials - Residential premises.
(a)The city shall provide a program for the collection of recyclable materials from residential premises. For the purposes of this section, recyclable materials includes yard trimmings and any other similar materials designated by the director.
(b)Recyclable materials placed for curbside residential recycling collection shall become the property of the collector at the time of placement at the curb or other designated location for collection. The collector shall have the exclusive right to collect such recyclable materials.

A few years ago we were asked by a nonresident "recycling collector" if it was OK for him to go through our bins on trash day and take our bottles/cans on a regular basis. We said "no" because I did not want a stranger hanging around my home at night. I know some people in the area do permit him to take their recycling. He appears to be in his 60's and rides a bike to collect items, usually collects late at night. Once, maybe a year ago, we saw the more organized Van/Car "thieves", but did not have time to call any authority. They were looking through the recycling but I am not sure what they took. I care most about personal safety issues regarding people who are bold enough to linger near my private property late at night. I can just imagine how I would feel if I arrived home late and saw a stranger loitering near my home. I did call the recycling company and they said to call the nonemergency police number if the recycling thieves are observed. It is some sort of crime. We are in Barron Park, just across El Camino from you in Ventura.

I feel extremely sorry for such people. They need the money more than anyone else. It is probably the most efficient way to distribute money to the needy.
And one need not worry... they will recycle it. that's how they will get some money out of it.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Apr 20, 2007 at 12:04 pm
I dont assume that everyone that does it is just trying to survive.
I know of one young college woman that is raiding recycling bins to save money for a trip to Europe.
People with a truck going house to house could make a nice tax free income, do the math.

Most of the 'thieves' are homeless. To them, the money from the cans might mean having enough money for a night in a cheap hotel where they can clean up and take a brief break from the street. The cans they 'steal' still get recycled. The same 'law&order' people who so object to those poor souls 'stealing' their cans, usually have no problem when their own gardeners use deafening gasoline leaf-blowers, against the law.
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Apr 20, 2007 at 5:35 pm
You are reading a lot into my posts that is not present. If a homeless person comes by my house and wants them, I'll fish them out of the bin for him/her, no questions asked.
a resident of Adobe-Meadow

Interesting question.
If you set your bin outside and fish stuff out yourself, are you a thief.

Its ok, I bribe elected officials on a regular basis, I'm sure they would work the system for me. ;^)
a resident of Another Palo Alto neighborhood
on Apr 20, 2007 at 6:06 pm
OK OK Ok
Now I know. I constantly have to fish things out of my recycling can often when it has been put on the kerb. My kids always accuse me of recycling their homework and other important school papers they leave around the house. Maybe I should turn them into thieves and get them to look around the can themselves. Or maybe, the idea that they might be thieving will prevent them from leaving important stuff around the house!!
a resident of Duveneck/St. Francis
on Apr 20, 2007 at 6:14 pm
I dont think you want to run the risk of your kids going to the big house for recycling theft. I hear recycling theives are pretty low on the food chain. But if they get sent up, make sure they stay away from the leaf blower gangsters. Really tough crowd.

The third and final "Wave" of the One-Act Play Festival at the Black Box Theatre (through August 26) is another varied batch, from romantic duets to a couple of fantasies. All but one of the half-dozen offerings are directed by Rich Morra, and two-thirds succeed.
As usual, a prime opportunity is comical first-date dramatics — three playlets in the prior two collections toyed with that trope. So starting out is Fighting Mr. Right, by Barbara Lindsay. Marla (Cassia Chipman) has brought her date home, and a good touch is that we don't know whether either or both of them are faking enthusiasm over the Japanese drumming performance they have just seen.
What follows is an imaginative variation on the expected give-and-take about whether things will go farther that night. She won't have him stay and she won't even let him kiss her, but not because they haven't hit it off. Marla likes him, in terms that probably make him wish he had a hat to fan himself with. The rule she sets down for advancing the relationship is funny but sensible in a weird way, and Joel (Ed Warren) adapts in fine style.
Vladimir Zelevinsky's Theme and Variations is directed by Tom Chace. A character named He (Billy Flynn) steps up to a woman at a bus stop bench, with various approaches and responses resulting, as though such alternatives exist in alternate universes. She (Sarah Good) morphs through numerous personalities and reactions, from abrupt rejection to coming on strong to, when they are conversing in some sort of 16th-century archaic diction, she suggests that he "proceed to have sexual relations with yourself." A Nurse (Chipman) comes into things, a consequence of the belief or disbelief in love at first sight.
Two fantasies are, respectively, charming and a bit far-fetched. In Death of a Snowman, by Daniel Guyton, a little girl, Charlotte (Haley Pine), converses with said Snowman (Flynn). She is concerned that he'll be "going away soon." Her mother, you see, has passed away, so she's wondering what he thinks about the afterlife. Charlotte asks him why people die and he retorts, "Why do people live?" It's a sweet little tale about learning acceptance and appreciation.
In A Killing Frost, by Ben Jolivet, Claire (Elizabeth Almeida) is talking with a young homeless man (Warren) in her garden, where she is gathering herbs. She keeps calling him Robert, though he has told her his name is Dan. She has a turkey in the oven, which she has invited him to stay for. Trouble is, she has locked the gate behind him. He had been squatting there, thinking the house empty.
There is a dark undercurrent here that Almeida nicely underplays, but the presentation doesn't shape or use that tension helpfully. Uncommented upon is the fact that she apparently has no close friends. We're also not sure what to make of Dan being somewhat aggressive — he says he's been taking care of himself since he was a kid, and he got fired for telling off his boss. His possibly being dangerous could, but doesn't, play against a potentially scary metaphorical tale she says her mother told her about a killing winter frost. Is she a bit crazy or just lonely? Is his suggesting sex a good thing or worrisome? Hmmm.

More affectionately known as beer pong , Chadminton is primarily played in college gathering areas, small town garages, and more recently in sports bars. The basic premise of this activity is to designate cups of beer to be drank by your opponent by tossing and landing a dirty ping-pong ball within said cups of beer.

So far in 2011 the Ocala Speedway Hobby Stocks have managed two races, and both of those were won by racers who normally turn their laps at the opposite end of the National Forest. Mike Tovet reigned supreme on March 11th, and Joe Belkey beat Tovet and the rest of the field on March 18th. But with those racers now distracted by points races elsewhere, newcomer Matt Shea may be in the perfect position to take advantage as the points season begins at Ocala. Shea moved up from the Gladiator ranks at the end of 2010, and so far has registered both 4th and 5th place finishes on the year. Danny Miller Jr has finally gotten his machine ready to race and should be back, and Jody Wells may have finally corrected the troubles that have held him back in 2011 and should be poised to make a run.
Ray Wheeler has won every Amsoil Thunder Stock race in 2011 at Ocala Speedway with the exception of one, but with the official points season just now getting underway Wheeler's wins amount to nothing more than some trophies and the money that he took home. As one might expect, when races begin to count towards a championship is when Jason Gamble gets going, and Gamble was all over Wheeler in the last race run on March 25th. Gamble won the one exception to Wheeler's record, and fully expects to leave with the points lead on Friday night.
The Mini Stock Division is getting a bit of a reprieve this week as they were rained out on April 1st, and management decided to add them to this week's program. So far in 2011 the Mini Stocks have hit the clay only once, and that race went to Tim Zackery. Meanwhile young Ryan Babcock stepped up his game and finished second, and he will be joined by his father, Sean, in this week's race. Johnny Zackery hopes to have the mechanical woes that ended his night early in the first race solved and will be ready to race as well, and Jimbo Bird should be ready for action after blowing the engine in his new Mini Stock the first time out.
So far in 2011 Casey Feaster has not lost a Gladiator feature at Ocala Speedway, but his wins have not counted toward the season points total. Feaster was on track to win the points championship in 2010 when he was derailed by a mechanical failure that caused him to arrive at the track too late to race one night, so he is extra determined this time around. But don't count our Kyle Morse, who has honed his skills and seems ready to challenge the frontrunners of the division this year, and keep an eye on Sammy Dale, who has been fast but has been stopped by mechanical issues during the first two outings.
America's Dirt Track will open the grandstand gate at 5PM on Friday afternoon with heat races scheduled for 8PM. Remember that the Monster Jam Summer Heat tour will be at Ocala Speedway April 15th through the 17th, so Friday will be an excellent opportunity to avoid long lines and get your advance tickets early. For more information on this week's racing, or upcoming events at America's dirt Track, please visit www.OcalaSpeedway.com.

So our current economic uncertainty offers two possibilities for fine dining: either the government will rescue it once again or it will become completely unaffordable. Either possibility makes now a time worth revisiting the most of traditional Portland's upscale restaurants — the Back Bay Grill — for a new hello or a fond goodbye.
Opened 20 years ago on an odd bayside corner, the Back Bay Grill looks seasoned rather than old. The front room and bar are truly lovely — with vintage lamps kept low, dark wainscoting, and a darker inlaid ceiling. A bustling open kitchen sits right on top of the bar, behind a curtain of copper pans. The larger, lighter back room is less striking, but has many nice touches, like the long leather bench, and the tiny corner booth we settled in. The room's huge mural is charming in that it abandons sophistication for a cartoonish earnestness.
While the muralist was perhaps too eager to ingratiate, the staff pleases thanks to a calm expertise that is missing from many newer spots. The menu also reflects a desire to do familiar things very well, rather than trot out new tricks or trump up dishes with ingredient-resumes. Still, the gravlox appetizer — spirals of subtly house-cured salmon — came with a contemporary looking smear of green chive-oil and an interesting and mild horseradish mascarpone. A thin tomato soup, peppery and with the distinctive bitter of stewed tomato, flirted with the line between traditional and dull.
Back Bay Grill's most retro move is to offer entrees that are better than the appetizers. So many restaurants do the opposite these days. Duck breast is often served undercooked, but the version at Back Bay Grill was left on the heat long enough to allow its grassy, almost beef-like flavor to deepen. Next to it was a crisp-edged minimalist slab of moist, dark, rich duck confit. It looked hefty and serious on the plate and tasted wonderful. The risotto's grains offered bite rather than mush and clung to each other thanks to a mouth-filling rich and nutty taleggio cheese. The roasted parsnip agnolotti was only slightly less successful. The pasta could have been just a touch thinner, so as not to overwhelm the sweet-soft parsnip filling when biting a folded corner. The stewed tomato confit offset the sweetness a bit, as did the bits of spinach and roasted pine-nuts. Bits of soft ricotta were creamy and mild — contributing to the dishes' soft and comforting sensibility.

Liberty Media has moved another step closer to taking control of SiriusXM, as the FCC has granted approval of Liberty's request to assume the satcaster's broadcast licenses. The FCC announced that it has approved the transfer of control of SiriusXM's licenses to Liberty, which informed the Commission last spring it was aiming to take over the satcaster. Throughout 2012, Liberty gradually increased its share of SiriusXM stocks.
Bloomberg reports that Liberty has said in its filings that it planned to convert preferred securities, as well as buy more shares, to own more than 50 percent of SiriusXM's common stock, within 60 days of gaining FCC approval of the license transfer.
Last summer, Liberty Media head John Malone also confirmed that once his company gains control of SiriusXM, it plans to spin the satcaster off to a new owner.
Meanwhile, Forbes reports that shares of SiriusXM jumped in price on Thursday (1/3) to $3.10/each, the highest price the satcaster has traded at in five years. This has led to speculation that Liberty Media has already begun buying up more SIRI shares to cross the 50 percent threshold. As of 5 p.m. ET, SIRI was trading at $3.08/share.

A couple of weeks back it was Safer Internet Day. A whole global day dedicated predominately to keeping children safe online. A big investment, across the globe of time, money, and resources. But to what end?
In the week just past the FTC came out with a series of statements expressing concern over children's privacy from app developers who are collecting their data. This has resulted in a swift response from children's app collective Moms with Apps who have developed a privacy disclosure program to share with parents about all the things their members' apps don't do in relation to privacy.
And, after my article on the curation of children's content I have had many emails from people who are sharing with me their tools for curating children's content, which are all about keeping children safe.
Our obsession with online safety for children is excessive. It is driven by group-think and fear, generated by media and interested parties who often ignore any rigorous evidence-based approach to the issues, or even bother to explore a simple risk analysis. Back in 2007 I wrote a book called Idolising Children, wherein I argued that we have an unhealthy obsession with children and youth culture. An obsession that sees adults trying to preserve an idea of childhood and youth that doesn't actually exist while simultaneous trying to act out their own youthful fantasies and cling to idealized concepts of youth. It is all about lotions, potions and younger looking skin. It is about what we as adults want childhood to be – innocent and stress free. Rather than recognizing it for what it is – the process of learning, of taking risks and making mistakes on the way to becoming a capable and confident adult.
When it comes to issues of online safety and children why do we never ask the questions: what are the real risks to children online relevant to their ages and stages of development? And, why are so few people questioning whether those risks are actually real and whether our concern is warranted? Continue Reading "Our Internet Safety Obsession Is Bad for Children" »

England Women's midfielder Katie Chapman has decided to take a break from international football.
The 28-year-old informed national coach Hope Powell of her decision before the squad met up ahead of this Saturday's international match against the United States at the Matchroom Stadium.
Chapman has earned 82 international caps and has scored eight goals, her most recent strike coming against Spain at The Den last April, the game's only goal.
She was a key member of the England squad that featured in three consecutive major tournaments; the 2005 and 2009 Euros and the 2007 World Cup.
Chapman will continue to play for Arsenal during her international break.
Everton forward Natasha Dowie has replaced Chapman in the current squad.
Powell said: "With two young children and her commitments at Arsenal, Katie has understandably found it difficult to juggle her family life and her football.
"She has been a wonderful servant to England over the years. I have spoken with her and I fully respect her decision."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

You just don't take an OL player in the 1st with so many needs unless it's a LT or a "can't miss" sort of prospect at another position like some think Warmack is at G. We could use some more interior OL depth but the front 7 on defense should be the biggest priority.
It was the Pro Bowl though man. You saw the cushions the DBs were giving them right? Anyway, we can upgrade our offense all we want but we're not going to be able to stand up to even better offenses if we fail to get a pass rush on them or get owned by runs to the side because our linebackers fail to get there in time.I saw what Eli Manning with some actual time to throw can do last night.

I'd be happy with Fluker if some others guys I like were gone, although I agree #19 is a tad high for him. He could use some improvement in pass protection but destroys people in the running game. He' still young too. Great attitude though and MASSIVE... They don't call him Planet Fluker for nothing. I don't think there's any chance he plays guard though. I'd be willing to bet Barrett Jones is still there at #19 and I think he'd be the better long term get.
Id look at Barrett Jones maybe before Womack and Fluker. Reason being is his ability to play different positions on the OLine with excellence. That kid was 3 championships playing 3 diferent positions on their OLine
Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!
***Stat provided by "Schloss22"***
No way we take DJ Fluker at 19overall.. He could end up being a Guard , as hes kinda the plodding type, and at best, hes a run blocking RT.. I don't know how many mocks have em going in rd 1? Most i 've seen, have em going mid 2nd to late 2nd... Only oline i could stomach in RD1 is Eric Fisher, Lane Johnson, and Chance Warmack.. Warmack only because hes so good, and such a safe bet , as Fluker isn't even a safe bet... He has some bust concerns as well.. Will his weight be able to stay under control? Will he be able to move well enough to stay at RT? Will he be able to pass block good enough against talented NFL caliber ends? I don't trust em, to be honest.. He seemed to be the one that got blown by the most outta the bama olineman this past yr.. I just don't like nor trust DJ Fluker..
Im fine with an OL pick in the first. I would love Ogletree if he is there though, but wouldn't be angry with the right OL pick there. I could also be ok with a pass rusher.

Town Square
State Fiscal Crisis and Local Government Budgets
Original post made by Hal Bailey, another community, on Dec 2, 2008
Our State fiscal crisis has potential for dire impact on county and cities budgets in our region. The flow of funds owed to cities from various tax resources could be retained by the State to offset $$Billions in State budget shortfalls.
Danville has already acknowledged the potential and our county has provided notice to several cities using county contract services of potential reduction in services or fee increases.
Even fiscal studies for the proposed town of Alamo are subject to review based on this fiscal crisis and potential changes in revenue and costs of contract services.
It is newsworthy and deserves your journalism. Among Joan Buchanan, Guy Houston, Candace Andersen, and more representatives in government, you could provide expert insight into our regional budget impacts.
Most importantly, we are not at the bottom of this crisis yet and more dire impact can be expected. Your readers need your best effort to define this impact.

Dear Editor:
Please review: Alamo Today, December 2008 issue, Page 23
Sharon Burke, Member, Alamo Incorporation Movement Committee, has provided a campaign release that supports incorporation during the current State and County financial crisis. There are major omissions from the campaign release that misrepresent the feasibility of incorporation.
The release does not explain the impact on the proposed town budget if the STATE withholds various tax revenues stated in the LAFCO CFA. Recently, Danville Town Government expressed concerns that such tax revenue sharing would be withheld by the State for budgetary reasons. LAFCO's CFA consultants explained, during the September approval meeting, that incorporation would not be feasibly if such tax revenue sharing was withheld.
The release does not explain the impact of a declining sales tax base created by the prospective loss of anchor stores in the Alamo Business District. The sale of Longs and Wachovia could end their location in the Alamo Business District. Block Buster and YardBIRDS have informed current investors in the business district of potential changes due to downturns in their business volume. There is a growing likelihood of further vacancies the Alamo business district due to downturn in sales volumes.
The release does not explain the impact of an increase in county contract-services fees from those stated in the LAFCO CFA. Neighboring cities have confirmed the county has notified cities that various contract-services including police will be provided at increased fees in 2009/2010. Other cities and districts have reported higher costs for police, fire, public works and similar services and would provide higher fees for contract-services to the proposed Town of Alamo.
All neighbors expect your news operations to fully review and report the impact of the State and County Financial Crisis on all cities and the proposed city for Alamo.

It's Showtime May 21st Preview: Mohammed Medhar vs. Hafid el Boustati
- Written by Rian Scalia
Two Moroccan warriors clash in the third fight of the card as Mohammed Medhar takes on Hafid el Boustati.
Mohammed Medhar scored a big win over Gago Drago last September. Shortly after, many fans began to take notice. He went on to beat Jan van Denderen the next month and continued his on his roll. Unfortunately for him, his hype was derailed when he lost to Warren Stevelmans on the March 6 It's Showtime event in Amsterdam. Medhar looks to get back on track with a win over Hafid el Boustati.
Hafid el Boustati is looking to add to his resume of wins, already consisting of Chahid Oulad El Hadj and William Diender. el Boustati is coming off a draw on February 6 in Spain against Manuel Hinojo. He'll look to get back on track and higher into the ranks of the -70kg division with a win. el Boustati fights with a style that many Moroccan fighters like his stablemate Mosab Amrani have become known for, being fearless warriors in the ring.
Both fighters love to brawl and push forward throwing combos filled with power shots. Medhar proved in his fight against Gago Drago that he can go full speed for 3 full rounds and out pressure a pressure fighter. Although Medhar appeared tired at times, he pushed through it with pure grit and determination. Grit and determination will be the story of this fight as Hafid el Boustati won't be one to back down either.
Punches and kicks will be flying all over the place as one man looks to establish an advantage over his opponent. Each fighter will probably take turns backing up as they try to dictate the fight. I'd give the power advantage to Medhar. He has the type of power that can change a fight, visibly rocking Gago Drago and stopping Jan van Denderen. el Boustati is a tough customer and it will take a lot to phase him.
This fight has a good chance of being a war and possible fight of the night. Both men will leave it all on the line in the ring. Medhar looks to come back off a loss and el Boustati looks to come back off a disappointing draw. Hunger will be in the air and whoever wants it more will likely get it.
Don't be surprised if Medhar's power changes the fight in the blink of an eye. Still very young, you don't even know if Medhar has his "man strength" yet. He could get it all of a sudden and start knocking guys out left and right. I don't know about a knockout, but I do think Medhar will get the win in a hard fought fight. Look for a close decision in a back and forth fight with Medhar getting the better of the exchanges.

The historic town serves as a gateway to the thriving, unpretentious North Fork wine region as well as the posh boutiques and beaches of Quogue and Southampton. The community's laid-back pace and simple style are evident at the marina, public beach, and farm stands around which life here revolves.
The Digs
Bright hues are the hallmark of funky Hotel Indigo East End. Modern murals and blonde-wood furniture deck out each room, all of which offer queen or double beds, flat-screen TVs, and Wi-Fi. Spa-style bathrooms are stocked with Aveda products, and the hotel offers guests access to an on-site fitness center and a menu of massages. Bistro 72 serves up farm-fresh, seasonal dishes as part of a commitment to locally sourced cuisine. Grab a table in the dining room or savor a meal on the patio—a toasty fire in the hearth can warm up chilly evenings. The bistro also hosts live performances by local musicians on the weekends.

text: Quick question.I have a coolant leak. I've found coolant just behind the motor pooled on top of the bellhousing. Where does the intake manifold gasket leak-and does it pool up there? I can't actually see back there of course, but I felt touched the fluid-it is coolant.It drips all the way down the edge of the bellhousing.At first I thought it was trans fluid- it isn't I lost about 2 quarts of coolant per 500-1000 miles or so. It is the light red orange thin coolant- not the darker red really stinkier trans fluid.Even new trans fluid has a nasty sort of odor to me.Coolant-DEXCOOL has a smell, but it isn't bad. Thanks, Charlie PS 1998 Suburban 1500 2wd 209,700 miles-runs great-few leaks-gets great hy mpg(21 mpg on 3000 mile trips) .I want to keep it,since it is a winner-When finances permit,I would love to get a 2004, but not now.This vehicle seems to get better than average FE, and it is a spectacular long trip vehicle.We(2 adults and a greyhound) sleep at rest stops on long trips, so the Suburban is great.A double mattress fits in the back,so it is like sleeping on a bed at home-no motel bill either.Did I mention we are broke/debt etc. It is a great do everything vehicle-even with $8 gas I would keep it, or another Suburban.We have a very fuel efficient vehicle for most city driving.We also need big because of evacuations- 1or 2 biggish dogs, 4-5 cats + 3 adult humans.Plus a friends 56 lb beagle frequently stays with us-yes, he-Deuce- is very fat.He would have to come along on an evac. We need a big box on wheels. I don't care for Excursions-the other big , long vehicle - I'm not against vans, but the Suburban is easier to work on.

I have never tried it as an alternative to pollen. Interested in your opinions re: this product.
I have never tried it as an alternative to pollen. Interested in your opinions re: this product.
If, and thats a big unknown if at this time...If the information is correct as published by Mannlake and others, BeeFeed is questionable at best.
BeeFeed shows a protein level of 36.4% With a isoleucine level of 2.10%
Bee need 4% isoleucine among other essential amino acids to fully utilize 100% of the proteins consumed.
2.1% of 4% come out to .525 or 52.5% of the possible 100% of 4.
If you take 52.5% of the protein content of FeedBee, you get 19.11 % protein.
Once any feed goes below 20% crude protein, it is questionable as bee feed based on the standard by De Groot(1953). Protein levels need to be above 20% while utilizing the bees ability to utilize 100% of the protein by having isoleucine levels above 4%.
I mention "If" in the opening statement. I say this because at this time I question all the published information and marketing data for feed substitutes. I wish the industry would pay to do independant testing of the different pollen substitutes being marketed.
Some have said that bees eat up the BeeFeed. And at over 51% carbs(sugars) I don't doubt that. But pollen subs should be about protein, not an expensive means to feed sugar.
[size="1"][ February 21, 2007, 06:11 AM: Message edited by: BjornBee ][/size]
Do you mean Feedbee? If you are referring to the stuff that Dadant recently started selling that the ABJ published the studies of - don't waste your money. I put it on 200 hives side by side with 400 other hives, 200 on brewers yeast and 200 on Beepro. The bees consumed the brewers and Beepro readily but would not touch the Feedbee.
I would sure like to know how their studies showed bees eating this stuff almost as well as pollen. What a joke! Feedbee smells good and even tastes good but I guess not to the bees.
> The bees consumed the brewers and Beepro readily
> but would not touch the Feedbee.
Could you offer more details on the conditions
under which you did this comparison?
From what I've seen of the ingredients lists,
Beepro and Feedbee are nearly identical, but
there may be a difference in terms of how the
components are processed.
BeePro....48.5% protein...4.9% sugar...4.94 isoleucine...
FeedBee...36.4% protein...51.8% sugar... 2.1%isoleucine
Thanks much for the info.
"Could you offer more details on the conditions
under which you did this comparison?"
First, in the fall, I fed Feedbee to about 200 hives in patty form mixing it as intructed with HFCS. The bees hardly touched it so I tried another method, also recommended by the Feedbee folks, by mixing a 44lb bag with 55 gallons of HFCS and feeding it to them in their feeders. Still they wouldn't eat it. At this point I'm thinking there must just be a pretty good pollen flow on so the bees are going after it instead.
In December I moved my bees, about 600 in all, to a warmer environment to starting brooding up early in preparation for the almonds. This time I wanted to compare Feedbee with Beepro and with brewers yeast. My bees were all in the same holding yard right next to each other. I mixed the 3 different pollen substitutes the same (with HFCS and about 10% irradiated pollen) all patties were nice and doughy.
On about 200 hives I put a patty of Feedbee under the lid over the brood nest. On another 200 I put a patty of Beepro just under the lid over the broodnest and on another 200 brewers yeast just under the lid and over the broodnest. After 2 weeks the hives with the Beepro patties and brewers yeast patties had almost entirely consumed the patties. On the other hand, the Feedbee was almost totally still there.
By the way, my feeders that had the HFCS/Feedbee mixture from last fall are still full as the bees still have not touched it. Now I have a big mess to clean up in trying to dump this stuff out since most of these internal feeders have caps and ladders. It's a slow sticky process.
One curious thing is that all 600 hives seemed to brood up fairly consistently and last week when my bees were graded in the almonds they all graded about the same with a 13 frame average. So even though the bees wouldn't eat the Feedbee, they still brooded up well.
-Rob Bliss
This would have been great information to have on Feb. 21 at 11:51 AM when I was standing at Dadant and decided to buy a 5 lb. box of Feedbee (not having feed any pollen substitute in the last 10 yrs) to try on a couple of our northern wintered hives! Thanks, Guys!
I could take it back but I want to see if my results are different than others. I'll post it.
Joel, I did post my first comment questioning Feedbee a full 5 hours and 42 minutes before you were standing at dadant....
"This would have been great information to have on Feb. 21 at 11:51 AM when I was standing at Dadant and decided to buy a 5 lb. box of Feedbee"
I posted comments 3 weeks ago on Feedbee. Please let us know how it goes for you. I'm VERY interested to see if others have the same experience I had.
-Rob Bliss
mine took it down really quick. The carbs are not all sugar as most people think. I think it also depends on how the protien is digested not just the amount in it.
The protein is digested for energy, and the total consumption increased if the AA balance is incorrect. For instance, if I require a ration containing 4 g of isoleucine a day, and 100 g of total protein and have a feed supplement containing 2% isoleucine, then I must eat 200 g of this supplement (twice my total protein req). The additional protein is burned for energy/nitrogen waste at about 4 kCal/g. This is why people spend $$$ to breed corn, soy etc that has altered AA composition. Most non-sugar carbs are not digestible by honeybees, which do not have amylases, cellulases etc in their GI tracts.
Rob and Bjorn, for now on I'll check with you guys before I buy anything!
I'll let you know how it goes, patties going on this weekend.
You lost me Aspera ....But it sounds impressive.
I'll just go back to my dumb corner and wait for more results.

Definately check with Bjorn, he's the man. I've always been very impressed with his posts. If I can add a little now and then, I'll be happy.

tecumseh replies:
this suggest quite simply that pollen (protein) was not the limiting factor in regards to this (your) population of 600 hives.... and perhaps this may explain why one group did not consume the patties offered.
did the patties that were consumed have a higher sugar content?
at a 13 frames average in february (???) I would suggest that neither protein nor energy was limiting their growth.

the man got his money and now on to the postseasons!!!!!!!!
108M? Please. You of all people know he isn't worth that much. There was a time they contemplated getting rid of him and no this? Makes it tough on GMs of Rodgers and others that have to resign those guys soon
Football has been very, very good to us.
After losing seasons 2013-15, the giants put up 11 wins in 16.. they are on way Back
But for now we can console ourselves with this fact-
# of Super Bowl victories since 1985:
1-Chicago, St. Louis, Tampa Bay, Indianapolis, New Orleans, Seattle
2-Washington, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Baltimore
3-San Francisco, Dallas, Denver
4-New York Giants!!!
Let's make it 5 in 2016 so we can be on a LINE NE again!!!
***Stat provided by "Schloss22"***
Thank you Jerry!
Tony Romo got paid like the champ that he is! .............oh wait!
2010 was the only season he missed significant time and that was for good reason. Lee, Miles and Murray are prone to injury, Romo is not. Time will tell how this works out but I can tell yas one thing..Dallas is better off with Romo than with a mediocre/potential rookie or a never has been playing QB.
Give him a good offensive line and I think things will be different but if they keep asking him to do it all, it will be more of the same IMO.
I don't think his age is anything to worry about as he's still playing at a high level. It's not like he's going to play out the full length of the contract, either.
As for the injury-prone label, I disagree to an extent. When Romo gets hurt, it's for good reason. Darren McFadden is prone to injury, Romo is prone to getting drilled over and over again. His line is abysmal. It often appears that they flat-out cannot play.
Considering the punishment he takes, Romo is probably one of the tougher quarterbacks out there, he won't exit a game unless he's unable to function correctly. I mean, he played with fractured ribs and a collapsed lung last season.
In this age of rapidly escalating quarterback contracts, $18 million isn't too bad. While Romo isn't "elite", he's still pretty good.

Statutes Pertaining to State-level Funding, Finance, and Provision of Charter School Facilities
This guide examines three primary, state-driven policy approaches to mitigating charter schools' facilities needs by easing operators' access to funding, affordable financing, or publicly financed space:
Direct cash assistance for facilities, that is, providing a dedicated funding stream in the form of a per-pupil allocation or other grant program funds specifically directed to support charter school facilities;
Ability to borrow money for facilities, that is, helping charter school operators obtain affordable capital to buy, lease, or upgrade their facilities; and
District provision of facilities, that is, encouraging or mandating districts to provide charter schools with facilities.
Table B1 provides Web links for the authorizing statute for each facilities assistance program discussed in the body of this report and for related policies. The table is organized by jurisdiction and, within each jurisdiction, by program, with the type of policy approach it represents in parentheses.

Historically, comprehensive high schools were created to fulfill a set of goals that were quite different from what is currently needed in today's educational system. The comprehensive high school provided a wide selection of courses, but it was not assured that every student would obtain a strong set of core skills.
But in today's "knowledge-based" economy, students must possess strong literacy, analytic, and mathematical skills to succeed in postsecondary education or the workforce. A large body of evidence suggests that smaller schools may have advantages over large schools, especially when the smaller learning communities (SLCs) are accompanied by separateness, autonomy, and distinctiveness in the sub-school units. Smaller units of students and teachers within a school may make it easier to focus on teaching and learning.
The goal of this program is to increase the academic achievement in large high schools through the creation of smaller, more personalized learning environments. High schools enrolling more than 1,000 students can establish strategies, such as, small learning clusters, career academies, teacher-advisory mentoring, and other innovations designed to create more personalized instruction.
