text: I just purchased a pair of Jackson Artiste ice skates. THey are size five and recommended for feet that are 9 inches long. My feet are 8 7/8 and 8 5/8 respectively, and wide such that the width (only made in a C) is not enough. I had them heat molded and now (well, even before the heat molding) I find that I keep hitting the toepick when I skate! This has never happeneded with any pair of skates. I looked at the toepick, and I saw that if you draw a line from the toe of the boot (looking at the outside leather) straight down to the blades, it hits AFTER the first toepick pick. (of the many picks that comprise the toepick, the first pic actually starts before the toe of the boot by one pic. I looked at Sp teri super teri and also Riedell Silver Medallion (old model) and they don't do that-- the first pic starts after the toe of the boot. Wierd, huh? However, I am wondering if there are also other problems since the blade is screwed on with holes that don't allow for adjustment--so maybe it's meant to be like that? if so, it might be a problem with my heel raising up (I have wide feet but a small heel) and there is also 1/4 an inch of space at the point of the the toe of the boot. When I skate, I feel like my wieght is on my toes inside of on the center. I checked the (rocker!!!) of the boot and it seems fine. Sharpening is also fine. I do not think I am pronating one way or the other. Also, the blades are 9 1/3 when the boot is 9 inches. Is that wierd? SHould I downgrade to a 9 inch blade? (I have 9 1/3 inch adjustable for remounting MK shieffield test blades and 9'' inch MK professional blades) Or, should I use multiple laces for different sections of the boot in an attempt to keep my (feet from slding forward??!!!!) Or, pad the toe area that has 1/3 inch extra space and pad the heel? Pad the tongue? Lol, I don't really know what to do...Help me preventing myself from kiling myself with a toepick in the ice XD p.S. my posture and everything is fine, only with this pair do I have problems. I also cannot afford another pair.

Apparently from what I have read, this no longer works with the Silverado starting in 2012. You have to use a tool. Am I wrong? Thanks.

very nice hosts, very clean apartment, close to shops, everything was perfect for a pleasant stay in the city
To be fully recommended
Very nice place. We had a lovely time, and it was very clean and was placed very good. We were 6 boys, and we had plenty of space. :-) Maybe a bit low on some kitchen tools, such as knifes... But anyways, no comments, very good!!
Nice owner who upgraded me on my last night. The place is well located even though it can be a bit noisy at night due to very slim walls. The furniture are basic but there is all you need.
Very nice and clear apartments, also good location, i enjoyed my stay, thanks!
Apartment as described, quiet, no street noise, very nice host.
Internet connection had troubles with video calls, pillows were too flat, couch was bit dirty.
Modern and cool department at walk distance to Alexanderplatz. Good view andclose to Kreuzberg and U-bahn stations.
This was a fantastic place to stay in Berlin! The apartment is exactly as pictured and has everything you need for an easy and comfortable stay. The apartment is located very close to a supermarket and metro stations and has a great view from the window! Ivos was a great host. He was very friendly and spoke very good English. He provided us with suggestions of things to do and even mapped everything out for us! We really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely return when next in Berlin! We have nothing negative to say about this apartment or host! 5 stars!
We enjoyed our stay a lot. The room is big, has good beds and sheets and is clean. We shared the bathroom with the other (2person) room which was fine. Nice view on the 'patio' and no noise from the streets as it is the third building from the street. We could ask for new towels in the mornings and everything was explained to us very clearly by the lady from the freiraum office nextdoor. Kreuzberg is wonderfull, good bakeries nearby for breakfast, metro in front and oranienstrasse with shops and restaurants starts across the street. I will surely recommend this place to friends.
It was fine and calm stay. The room was well heated and the shared bathroom was only for us (the other room was unoccupied). Every bar/caffee/club/shop/gallerie/museum that we wanted to visit was situated very nearby . The forecourt was a pleasant surprise.
nice place.
near to the U1 metro line (exit Görlitzer Bahnhof) that connects the entire City.
the info office very kind and available for help everyday (sunday excluded).
good job!

The beautiful cobbled path leading into Gower Hey Woods in Summer and Winter.
Gower Hey Woods is an area of woodland situated in Gee Cross. It has its own conservation society which does a lot of good work in keeping it clean and safe for everyone to use.
There appears to have been a cotton mill situated in the bottom of the woods ,which was built in approx 1792 by Thomas Howard, son of Joseph Howard of Haughton Hall. Not much is known about the mill but the last known use for it was as a cotton waste bleaching mill run by Obadiah Broadhurst in 1874.
Map from 1836-51 , showing the mill . Note the old spelling !
Buttercup Meadow from my front garden. So beautiful!
Looks so different here.. hard to imagine it as such.The Boggert Of Gower Hey

text: Jimmy did a great job coaching using fear, just as H.S. coaches use today and college coaches use today, because the players have no choice in the matter, but in the NFL that will not work with the NFL players anymore, as for players just release them and another team will be glad to pick them up and play and pay them. Remember, for those who have forgotten, Jimmy the great, he did not want QB Troy as the QB, he wanted QB Walsh from Miami as his QB, and Jimmy the great, he did not want RB Emmitt, he said he was to small and slow, he wanted to draft a LB that was drafted just ahead of his pick, ahead of him and Jimmy had to be talked into taking Emmitt. So as for how great he was, yes he was a very good coach but he also proved in Miami that his coaching style and his system does not and will not work in this Free Agent area, known as today's NFL, that is and was the reason he QUIT coaching, he knew it then and now because players would not take the abuse that he shovel out, as he even said he was too hard on the players and the players today, forget about it. Why do you think Jimmy would not come back to coaching, he has enough ego of him in him, not to want to destroy his image, remember he a legend in his own mind, and yes he did win here and thank you Jimmy and Jerry for the SB wins together but your ego Jimmy got in your own way and it still shows today, is that enough credit for him.. Jimmy you did something that people should never do,,, you disrespected your boss, instead of saying we build this team, as so for you and the players that was signed, and to give the man that sign those big checks as the owner and GM and scouts that took those trips and people that worked hard to put all that info together for you and coaches, Jimmy you totally disrespected the man who took a chance on you, Jerry was told not to because of Jimmy big ego, other teams would not touch him because of that, but Jimmy you totally disrespect him the owner in a bar in front of friends and other coaches, by the way I would have FIRED your a-s-s too. Remember with Jimmy its all or none, and he has more than enough of him for everyone..

[quote user="nycsportzfan"][quote user="Kruunch"][quote user="ibbill"]2012 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report: Matt McCants, OT, UAB Matt McCants is one of the top mid-major prospects hailing out of the University of Alabama-Birmingham. As a member of the Blazers, he's now a three-year starter at left tackle and earned All-Conference USA first-team last season. McCants has an elite frame for an offensive tackle with very long arms and above average footwork. He is not completely filled out and is a couple years away from reaching his full girth. His great hand-eye coordination gives him a great punch while sliding out into pass protection. McCants has great range in establishing an edge or if asked to block on the second level. For a man his size, he moves tremendously well. When he caught out of position, he needs to learn to stay disciplined through his techniques and keep his natural bend. That said, NFL scouts are going to be all over this young man when they see him in person during pro days and the NFL combine. McCants didn't do himself any favors by only having 17 bench press reps to go along with an average combine performance.[/quote] Very raw and way under-strengthed for the NFL (one of the reasons Mike Adams and Jonathan Martin slipped). He's a multi-year project at best I'm thinking.[/quote] i think the easiest thing to get from the NFL, is stronger... Your talking top strength and conditioning coaches.. All he needs is strength and technique, both things i think he'll get in the NFL.. ALso, he was* a 6th rd pick, where u take gambles on kids like this..[/quote]
I agree ... he has the perfect frame and what he's missing he can get on a pro team if works dilligently at it.
Between him, Mosely and Brewer, one of them (if not a couple or all three) should shake out nicely as a starting RT (eventually) and LT depth (and potential starter down the road depending on what happens with Beatty).

A power miter saw is an essential tool for almost any type of carpentry work. This article explains basic techniques for using the miter saw, along with tips and tricks for getting the best results.
Mark Petersen, an editor for The Family Handyman, will show you how to properly mark a board before cutting it on a miter saw.
Lift the blade guard with your thumb and sight down one edge of the blade to align your cut. Caution: Remove your fingers from the switch while you're aligning the cut. Firmly hold or clamp the workpiece. Then gradually release the blade guard and return your hand to the switch to make your cut.
A power miter saw is one of the best tools to cut tight-fitting joints on all kinds of moldings: window and door trim, baseboard and crowns. With a power miter saw and a sharp saw blade, it's easy to fine-tune a joint for a perfect fit by slightly adjusting the angle or trimming off a hair's width.
Be prepared for a startling experience the first time you squeeze the switch on a power miter saw. The saw will jerk and whine as the blade gets up to speed. Listen for the blade to reach top speed before starting your cut. Then lower the blade slowly and steadily through the board until the cut is complete. Hold the saw carriage down in this position and release the switch, allowing the blade to come to a complete stop before raising it. Maintain a firm grip on the workpiece until the blade stops spinning.
Aligning the blade with the cutting mark on your workpiece gets easier with practice. Photo 1 shows how. Cut a little beyond the line, leaving extra length on your workpiece. Test the fit. Then adjust the miter saw angle if necessary (Photo 2) and slice off a little more. Keep a firm grip on the workpiece (with your hand a good 6 in. away from the blade) to prevent it from being pushed aside by the blade. For greater accuracy, clamp the workpiece.
Power miter saws are simple to use and safe if you follow the precautions and instructions included. Take time to read and understand them. Here are a few of the most important safety precautions:
Adjust the blade angle slightly to fine-tune miter cuts for a tight fit. Nudge the blade adjuster and hold it in position until you tighten the locking handle.
Back up small pieces with a sacrificial board to prevent the cutoff from being thrown by the blade. Hold the saw down at the end of the cut until the blade comes to a complete stop.
Screw two blocks of wood to the miter saw stand to act as a stop for repetitive cutting to the same length. Set the lower block back about 1/2 in. so that if sawdust or wood chips pile up against it, they won't affect the cutting length.
A friend once complained to me that miters cut on his power miter saw didn't fit, and he wondered if something was wrong with the saw. I explained that miters often don't fit on the first try, but that he could make them fit by adjusting the angle slightly (Photo 2), as little as 1/4 degree, and slicing off tiny slivers of wood. If the backsides of miters touch, leaving a gap in the front, you can fix it in either of two ways. If you own a compound miter saw (opening photo), leave the angle setting the same but tilt the saw 1 or 2 degrees and recut the miter, removing just a little from the back side. If your saw doesn't tilt, slide a carpenter's pencil or sliver of wood under the workpiece to tilt it up in relation to the blade. With practice, you'll be able to look at a joint and gauge where to remove wood to tighten the fit.
Construct a jig to hold crown moldings at the correct angle. Set a scrap of your molding upside down in the jig and mark the position of the stop. Screw the stop to the jig. Place all fasteners away from the path of the blade.
Attach the jig with 3/4-in. screws through holes in the miter saw fence. Cut miters with the crown molding upside down.
Some trim pieces, like crown, cove and bed moldings, sit at an angle to the wall or ceiling. To cut these, I like to imagine the bed of the saw as the ceiling and the fence as the wall, and position the molding that way. Then you'll cut the miters like any other trim, without having to make a compound miter. Build a jig to ensure the molding is held at a consistent angle each time (Photos 5 and 6).
Whenever you have to cut miters on a piece less than about 8 in. long, cut them from a longer piece so you can keep your fingers in the safe zone away from the blade. If you need a 6-in. piece of baseboard with miters on both ends, for example, cut one miter on the end of a long piece of base. Then mark for the other miter, change the miter saw angle, and cut off the 6-in. piece while you hold the longer end. Very small pieces fall through the large gap in the fence on many saws and can easily break or be flung across the room. Photo 3 shows one solution. Sometimes it's helpful to screw a taller wood fence to your miter saw to support wide trim and reduce the size of the space near the blade. The fence has holes that are just for this purpose.
Every brand of miter saw is slightly different. The more you use your saw, the more you'll get used to its quirks and the easier it will be to get accurate results.
No matter what type of miter saw you own, a stand that holds the tool at a comfortable working height and supports long pieces of lumber is a must. It doesn't have to be fancy. The photo below shows one version that's so quick and easy to assemble that I'd often build one right on the job site. The wooden bed extension on this stand makes it easy to attach stop blocks (Photo 4). If you've got extra time, embellish this plan by adding a plywood bottom to form a tray and replacing the 1x8 with a wider strip of 3/4-in. plywood. Set the stand across a pair of sawhorses to save wear and tear on your knees.
Use 8-ft. 2x4s for the base. Cut a piece of plywood about 16 in. wide and the length of the miter saw and screw it to the 2x4s. Rip 2x4 blocks so they'll support the 1x8 top flush with the bed of the saw. Screw the blocks to the long 2x4s. Then screw the 1x8 bed extensions to the blocks.
Have the necessary tools for this DIY project lined up before you start—you'll save time and frustration.
Avoid last-minute shopping trips by having all your materials ready ahead of time. Here's a list.

I agree it is very pretty. May I be so bold as to ask... How did you make it?
Ditto that Q. It'd be on my to-make list as well. So long as the acidity hits 5%.. Well.. Even if not. Be good for making hot pepper jelly.
I've been making and selling it for a few years now.
I do like it..
If you are really interested, pm me and I can forward a link to a 1935 extension bulletin from the University of Michigan that tells you everything you need to know.
One secret Dark Wolf is to make sure you start out with a high enough specific gravity so that the end product will have more than 5% acidity. Then you can dilute to 5% with distilled water.
The whole process takes nearly a year.
The only secret I'll keep is how to determine exactly what the percent acidity is. The vinegar in the photo is 5.09%.

Here is the pdf to make a "barrel" of honey vinegar.
Backyard beekeeping and honey bees.
That's the paper eqnox. Keep in mind that in 1935 they 'cooked' vinegar in barrels. I use glass carboys.
Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. - Emerson
Been seriously thinking of giving it a shot myself. I sell at farmers markets and was considering it since you don't need a license to sell vinegar - mead is another matter as it is considered wine and all the taxes and paperwork with it.
I notice specialty vinegars are fairly pricey and if I found a good market I think it would do alright.... Currently I am stuck in an area that is all about cheapest price, biggest quantity. Still I do use a fair amount of vinegar for pickling cukes and peppers and sometimes beets. Would be definitely different. I see it came out very clear looking.....Might have to give it a go this fall.
Another good read on honey vinegar. This is the article that first got me interested as the fellow was pretty enthusiastic.
Cade10 . it is very clear. The batch I bottled yesterday was a year and a half old. By then the debris from the fermentations have largely settled and so Im very careful that the pickup doesnt get close to the bottom of the carboy.
I sell mine at an upscale farmers market and now produce several variants. Theres blueberry, strawberry and apple cider honey vinegars. Several local chefs have used it in their recipes. I have a number of regulars who consume a teaspoonful each day for health benefits.
In the bulletin that eqnox posted the author recommends starting with a honey/water solution containing 15% sugars. This is important. You usually start an ordinary mead at a higher sugar content. If you go much higher than 15%, following the initial fermentation, your alcohol content will be so high that most acetobacters cant survive. The second fermentation will take FOREVER to progress. 15% is about 1.060 on a wine makers hydrometer.
Here is a photo of several carboys with honey vinegar in various states of fermentation. Note the nice mother on the top of several.
Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. - Emerson
I keep getting notes asking for specific instructions.
So....here is my basic step by step.....trust me I spent many hours and had countless failures before I finally got the right combination. And here it is for free.
I use honey, water, wine yeast (I use a high alcohol tolerant yeast to assure complete fermentation) and yeast nutrient. The yeast and yeast nutrient I buy from winemaking supply outfits. To make a batch I decide how much I want to make. I'll fill a fermenting vessel (plastic bucket w/provision for airlock, or glass carboy). I begin adding honey, stirring it in well and taking measurements periodically using a winemaker's hydrometer. When the mix reaches about 1.060, I stop adding honey. I then mix in yeast and yeast nutrient, cover and install an airlock. After about 6 weeks the initial fermentation should be complete. I check again with my hydrometer and it should read close to 1.000.
I rack the honey alcohol…I suppose I could call it a low alcohol content, raw mead…. into another carboy. I inoculate it with a living acetobacter ….in my case I use a couple of quarts from another completed batch of vinegar…but if you don't have that, you can buy a bottle of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar and use that (You can't simply go buy ordinary vinegar as most have been heated and the acetobacters are dead. Braggs isn't pasteurized). I put a cloth over the hole in the carboy and secure it with a strong rubber band. The cloth allows the bacteria to breathe at the same time it keeps bugs and other undesirable stuff out.
I put the carboy in a dark, well ventilated place where it can remain undisturbed for the next 8 or 10 months. I check periodically to make sure that a 'mother' forms on the top…and that the mother doesn't sink. Don't bump or move it...all it takes is the slightest motion to sink the mother...and then you need to rerack the whole batch into another carboy.
After much trial and error, this has proven to be a reliable method. It should produce a honey vinegar with an acid content of 6 - 7%....a bit hot on the tongue but pretty good for canning.
That's it pretty much…step by step. .
Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. - Emerson
anybody who has made wine with an airlock that went dry knows how to make vinegar. Ph strips will tell you the acidity.
Thanks for posting.
How important is it to maintain at a stable 70 degrees?
Without a dedicated refrigerator lower than 70 is a tough think to pull off year round here.
Good luck
Let me never fall into the vulgar mistake of dreaming that I am persecuted whenever I am contradicted. - Emerson
I have a friend that is an aspiring chef and she is always on the lookout for new, high quality stuff, local if possible.........
I am sure there is much more I wanted to say but I will give you that drinking a triple berry mead right now isn't helping the though process alot.
I seldom drink but it is hot and dull here tonight, waiting for rain. Trying REALLY hard not to kick on the air conditioner.
Thank you so much for sharing this pH strips will give you the pH ...the lower the number below neutral the more acidic it is. apple cidar vinegar is ususlly 4.25-5. NaOH titration will give you the % acetic acid which you can adjust at the end...apple cidar vinegar is usually 5% as apparently that is what is required for food preservation.
I have so many plumbs..is there enough sugar in them to ferment them to plumb wine and then make plumb vinegar? Can you make the wine with pits and skin left on?
The cooler the temp, the longer the fermentation takes & the more delicate aromas and flavors are preserved
Ther higher the temp, the more vigorous fermentation will be, potentially 'blowing off' these delicate aromas and flavors, as well as potentially altering the flavor of any fruit present (from a fresh-character to something of a cooked-character)
Some wine yeasts do better at cooler temps (typically white wine yeasts) and others at higher temps without so many negatives (red wine yeasts)
The SG reading of the 'must', the temp of the ferment, and the nutrient/nitrogen content of the 'must' (honey has none, basically), all influence the amount of yeast nutrient needed as well.
Just throwing that out there
A yeast not fed well, fermented at too high of a temp or trying to work through too much sugar without enough nutrients, can throw off several off-putting smells and flavors - rotten egg smells being the most common (H2S), and has a direct link to not enough nitrogen for the yeast.
A pH meter will test the strength of the acids in a solution while the Titration Kit will measure the amount of acids in a solution, expressed in g/L or a percentage
For your plums, take a dozen or so and mashed them up good, then strain the juice off & measure the amount of juice.
If its not enough liquid to float a hydrometer in, but you dont wanna mash any more plums without an answer, you can add an equal amount of water which will cut your Specific Gravity reading in half but may give you enough liquid to float the hydrometer.. Just simply double this SG for a more-accurate reading. I find most fruits, when ripe, have an SG in the 1.035 - 1.050 range, so I would suspect that you'd have to add a touch of honey to reach the aforementioned 1.060 SG.

Thanks for you step by step.
I have some "mead" which started life with a 1.08-1.09, so it should be around 11-12% alcohol. The advice I've found online is to bring the alcohol content down to around 8% by mixing in water. The total volume is going to be around 4ish gallons. Would 2 pints of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar be enough?

You know, the Vikes always seem to own us. They have something to play for, we really don't. They should start Eli for the first half, and then just let David Carr start the second half, why not?
I see nothing that we can get from this game whatsoever. We should actually take all our starters out and play guys we've normally don't and see if they are any good!!! LOL...
[/quote]I agree. This game only has scrimmage value.*
Give playing time to the inexperienced and take a hard look at guys on the bubble.

It is a bit strange how this team has so far refused to draft another quarterback; it's common practice around the league. He doesn't have to be brought in to push the starter, he could just provide a cheaper alternative to signing a vet.

It's a constant battle. One day I'll try to be more active and make healthier choices, other days I give in to every craving that pops into my mind – this weekend was no different. Despite watching the Olympics and feeling guilty that I can't even manage a consistent 20 minutes of activity each day while athletes are capable of so much more, I was hit by an intense yearning for pupusas … and horchata … and tamales fritos.
I have learned a lot in life, but I have yet to fully overcome my hedonistic nature – this manifests itself in various ways but most notably through what I eat. Suegra used to laugh at me when we'd go to the Latino market because I would come out of the store with various kinds of candy instead of normal groceries like other adults. "Sos como una niña" – You're like a little girl, she would say to me, shaking her head.
So this weekend, this niña had Carlos take me to a pupusería to fulfill my latest craving.
Pupusas de queso con curtido y salsa, a tamal de elote frito, platanos with crema y frijoles, and horchata to drink. (I actually gave most of the platanos to Carlos and my older son and only had a few bites of the beans but it's still more food than any one person should be eating, and also not the healthiest food either.)
I went for a walk after that meal, to put a small dent in the damage at least, but sometimes I wish I would crave healthier food. My suegra used to crave mangoes and would enjoy them, slurping the sticky juices with her eyes closed, declaring them to be perfectly ripe and delicious to anyone who would listen. I, on the other hand, don't ever crave fruit and while I do make sure I eat it on a daily basis, I don't feel passionate about it, (unless chocobananos count, which I don't believe they do.)
So today when I read "Can the Latin Diet be Healthy?" by fellow contributor, Chelsea, on SpanglishBaby, and "Don't Let the Olympics Make You Feel Fat" by fellow contributor Elizabeth on Mamiverse, I was reminded of my own thoughts this past weekend, and of a neat link a friend gave me months ago.
Zhu of Correr es mi Destino, E-mailed me a link to a PDF provided by the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute. The nearly 60 page bilingual PDF document is a cookbook of popular Latin American foods, made healthier. Platillos Latinos includes recipes for yucca (baked in the oven instead of fried), lomo saltado, Mexican pozole, arroz con pollo, and even pupusas revueltas using ground chicken and low-fat cheese.
I'm a fan of making small changes to eat healthier since drastic changes don't last long for me. Others say "everything in moderation" – but moderation is something I still can't get the hang of. Obsessively passionate or completely disinterested tend to be the two settings I run on regarding everything in life and I'm not so sure I can be re-wired. So I will choose to have my Tres Leches and eat it, too – but perhaps it woudn't hurt to use fat-free sweetened condensed milk.

I split my hive this weekend, planning on putting a new queen on each split. On friday I killed the old queen after the two queens had arrived. I split the hive, planning on placing the new queens 24 hours later. Next day, one of the queens had died. I place the (remaining) new queen on one of the hives, but the other remains queenless. I am pretty sure that if left unattended the queenless hive will make its own queen, but was looking forward to clamer bees. My question is how much time do I have to order a new queen and install her?

I can't see the Giants keeping more than 5-6 DTs. Who do you guys think make the roster?
Marvin Austin
Jonathan Hankins
Cullen Jenkins
Linval Jospeh
Markus Kuhn
Frank Okam
Martin Parker
Mike Patterson
Shaun Rogers
I think Rogers, Austin, and Patterson are relieved (I may be wayyyy off on Patterson, he may have something to prove). I just find it hard to believe Austin is kept and Rogers is 34 and way past his prime / injury prone now,
I am really liking the depth they brought in to DT to help clog the line...

its hard anyways when there's a usher there to check for your ticket. Mind as well try to find the cheapest lower bowl ticket and find the best at the half.

Man, as long as you're there cheering for the hornets. I could care lesx.
I'm not sure how in the world we can expect `professionalism' from the franchise when we don't impose it on ourselves. The games are supposed to be fun, but learning to enjoy the game is part of it. The lower bowl isn't `all that' or it'd be worth paying for (see: economics).
This fanbase better learn that we need to be above average in every respect when the time comes, and that includes appreciation for what we have. We don't have to be there now, but every season should bring us closer.
As the smallest market in the NBA, and the smallest BY FAR of any two-plus sport market, we have to be better than average or we will be roasted by the media.
so would you rather the lower bowl to be empty on national tv?
no I just don't want cheapskates like you trying to scheme your way into something you didn't pay for
i stay in the section i pay for.
i also don't bitch about other people moving sections when the place is literally half filled.
Why stop people from moving down. It looks better for the organization as a whole if we don't have just 50% of the club level filled each game- which is incredibly sad

Welcome aboard!
In .22s, look into the Ruger Mark II or Mark III pistols, as well as the Browning Buckmark. I prefer the latter, even though I just sold mine.
9mm is a perfectly adequate round for self-defense, provided you load with good modern hollowpoints. There are about a billion good 9mm pistols out there from Glock (my own preference), Springfield, SIG, HK, Beretta, S&W, Kahr, CZ and others. Your first one probably won't be your last, but buy a quality pistol that holds its value, fits your hand, and suits your preferences - which will change as you learn about guns and shooting.

Forget The MCSE, IT Architect Certification Might Be The Next Big Thing
Microsoft has introduced its new Certification Program, MCAP - Microsoft Certified Architect Program, which identifies top industry experts in IT Architecture.
The exam model combines a minimum field experience requirement, a grueling examination that includes a presentation in front of a professional board and a continuing education requirement. Candidates should not be able to just sign up: they should be nominated by other professionals who already carry the certification.
The new program, launched in June, will be far more rigorous. Candidates go before a review board of practicing IT architects, present project work they have completed and are questioned. Each candidate presents for 30 minutes, is quizzed for 40 minutes and the board then deliberates, probing weaknesses. The candidate then comes back in and does a five-minute wrap up. Three out of four board members must pass the candidate or certification is not granted.
More info at http://www.opengroup.org/itac/
Do we have any members certified in these?

I just looked at my pollen trap and noticed white, not fully developed carcasses in the trap area.
I opened the hive and noticed about 10 or so cells each on several frames that have dead bees in them. They are white and wet, and when I poked one with a pine needle a white liquid oozed out. The bodies have the consistency of the creepy crawlers we made as kids before the gel set completely.
The weather has been uncommonly mild here for the last few months in Pilot Hill , CA in the foothills of California 30 miles east of Sacramento. The last few days however have been in the 100's
I had to re-queen in June as there was no queen for unknown reasons.
Is this chalk brood? How do I treat? Any ideas.

Town Square
First-round decision made on superintendent
Original post made by RWE, South of Midtown, on Apr 19, 2007
A few things I'm curious about. How is it that if PAUSD claims to hire the "best and brightest" that we can't hire a Superintendent from within? My assumption is that there are no PAUSD candidates in this group. [I hope that assumption is wrong] When was the last time that a PAUSD employee was considered for the Superintendent's position?? Why are we - time and time again, bringing in career Superintendants who stay - at most - 5 years, taking at least one year of their tenure to get up to speed on culture and everyday operations.
Also, one thing that hasn't been mentioned, but shuold be included as a prerequisite for the new Superintendent is that s/he _must_ be _very_ proactive with our city government. This is a _must_, as bond and parcel tax issues for various initiatives are going to have to be well coordinated between the city and PAUSD from now on. The outgoing Superintendent remained non-involved and aloof from city affairs. This _cannot_ be the case with the new Superintendant, not of our city and school system are to find new ways to create efficiencies and economies with each other.

The reason the School Board goes outside the PAUSD to hire a Superintendent is to get someone neutral with no baggage attached. In the present atmosphere nearly every Principal or Assistant Superintendent, who might be eligable for the position, is on one side or the other.
The middle management's request that the present Superintendent step down now when she will be leaving in June is not practical. It's like threatening to impeach the President during the presidential campaign.
a resident of South of Midtown
on Apr 20, 2007 at 10:07 am
Howard, I trust your comment was tongue-in-cheek. ;)
In fact, there is a lot of healing called for within PAUSD. Whoever comes on board is going to have to have a unique combination of collaborative and leadership skills. There has never been as much rancor within PAUSD's ranks as is currently the case. Morale is at a relatively low point.
It's a very difficult thing for an executive to walk into a morale problem, much less be charged with fixing it. Nevertheless, that's the mandate.
One caveat: this time the _BOE_ will have to be part of the therapy. Unlike last time, when the BOE sloughed off its responsibility to effectively deal with what was perceived as a "union problem", and hired a "hit-person" (MFC's 'tough' stance and "take-no-prisoners" approach to unions negotiations preceded her; she lived up to that reputation, and thus the current result).
BOE members have power; it's given to them by the polis.
It's always interesting to see what happens to someone when they gain a little power. Most people flounder a bit, forgetting that power adds a new weight to everything they say and do - in both directions, positive and negative. That takes getting used to. Hopefully, lessons have been learned.
That said, this time the BOE is going to have to step up to the plate, concede that there is a valid argument coming from staff, and find some way to repair a serious breach of trust. This will not blow over quickly, so persistence and sensitivity is called for.
The hope is that the haughty condescension inherited (by some) from the Kroynman years will go away for good, and that this BOE will find some humility.
Everyone on the BOE is - in spite of some of our disagreements with them - trying to do a good job.
One thing that this BOE might learn from the one that hired MFC - that is that one cannot in a school environment hire someone to carry out one's own mandate. The BOE needs - as does the coming Superintendent - LEADERSHIP. Until now, we've mostly seen reactive posturing, and convenient rationalizations.
BOE members need to walk in the shoes of teachers and staff, remember that they are there to help parents and students get the best value for their tax dollar, but at the same time remember that they are charged with _optimally_ running an organization. Just in case the BOE hasn't noticed (as it seems something forgotton since the Callan/Kroynman [and now Townsend]) years, is that PEOPLE run this organization. It's a SERVICE organization. We want _mostly happy_ people encountering our kids every day. Mostly happy workers invigorate an organization.
Perhaps the BOE might take a look at this Venn-diagrammed representation of the ingredients fot organizational motivation and happiness. Start with that
Web Link
(btw, Edward Deci should be required reading for all organizational leaders)
There is NO excuse for any leader to permit an environment of dissension and low morale to occur. The BOE and our outgoing Superintendent bear full responsibility for what has transpired, just as the BOE now bears the responsibility to _fix_ the current problem and make PAUSD sustainable in terms of organizational cohesion.
We're all fallible (that's an inclusive "we", btw). We all make mistakes. It's time for the BOE to own up to its errors and do right by staff, and our city.
This next hire will face challenges that no other has faced prior. We are facing real constraint in our region. It's an irony, because on the surface - and by comparison with most - we're quite well off. We're living with the artifacts of Prop 13 - artifacts that, like chickens, have come home to roost. We must bring forward leaders who understand this structural problem - within PAUSD, and within the larger environment that PAUSD operates (our city), and knows how to bridge differences in a way that doesn't alienate.
It's a big task. The BOE is going to have to step outside its current comfort zone to enable these things. Is this BOE up to the task? We'll see.

Where are you reading RWE as pro-bond? And why do you assume that RWE doesn't post under one name, with others posting who have the same viewpoint? RWE's point of view doesn't seem particularly unique or fringe.

on Apr 23, 2007 at 4:17 pm
one side is the side that supports the 25 Churchill administration, Superintendent, etc. and the way they have conducted business for the past 5 years. This group includes some of the Board members. The other side is the variuos members of the school communities who support the management team's position that there is a morale crisis and the PAUSD needs to clean house.

a resident of College Terrace
on May 2, 2007 at 9:28 am
A question that I'd like the people going on the 'validation visit' to ask:
When Kevin Skelly was Principal of Saratoga High (1993-2004) there was a cheating scandal (and ensuing bomb plot!) at the school that received national attention. Much of that attention focused on the intensely competitive atmosphere at the school that led, some felt, to the students' feeling the need to cheat.
I'd like the validators to be sure that Dr. Skelly is not someone who will bring even more pressure to achieve on a very narrow set of tested metrics into our district than our students already feel. Read Denise Clark Pope's 'Doing School' -- researched in high schools on the Peninsula -- to see the horrible toll on children's morals, motivation, mental and physical health that comes with a test-well-at-all-costs culture.
I think we should expect a lot of our students. I think we should encourage them to excel. But we need to do that in a way that looks out for their health and that leaves them with a love of learning that will take them through college and into their working lives.
We need to know whether a pressure-cooker environment is that something Dr. Skelly will be all the more able to deal with after his experience at Saratoga. Or is such a culture -- where students feel pressured to cheat in order to gain their own validation in the community's eyes -- something that Dr. Skelly still embraces?

Story highlights
- Hawaii officially became a U.S. state 55 years ago
- To mark the occasion, iReporters offer beautiful photos from Hawaii
Formed by volcanoes and steeped in a rich history of Polynesian culture, Hawaii sounds more like a place in a fantasy novel rather than an American travel oasis.
Made up of a chain of volcanic mountains that form eight major islands, Hawaii stretches about 1,500 miles. The state's vast expanse provides a diverse terrain for visitors to explore -- tropical rain forests, cool alpine regions, arid deserts and sunny beaches -- all within miles of one another.
The region's beauty, history and landscape have enthralled novice and seasoned travelers alike. American travel writer Paul Theroux once said, "Hawaii is not a state of mind, but a state of grace."
The Aloha State on Thursday marks a milestone as it celebrates 55 years since becoming a U.S. state. To honor the occasion, we're sharing a breathtaking collection of photos that CNN iReport contributors have captured on the islands.

Revision as of 18:44, 31 March 2012
GHC Haskell comes with a large set of libraries and tools for building programs that exploit multicore architectures.
This site attempts to document all our available information on exploiting such hardware with Haskell.
Throughout, we focus on exploiting shared-memory SMP systems, with aim of lowering absolute wall clock times. The machines we target are typical 2x to 32x desktop multicore machine, on which vanilla GHC will run.
1 Introduction
To get an idea of what we aim to do -- reduce running times by exploiting more cores -- here's a naive "hello, world" of parallel programs: parallel, naive fib. It simply tells us whether or not the SMP runtime is working:
import Control.Parallel import Control.Monad import Text.Printf cutoff = 35 fib' :: Int -> Integer fib' 0 = 0 fib' 1 = 1 fib' n = fib' (n-1) + fib' (n-2) fib :: Int -> Integer fib n | n < cutoff = fib' n | otherwise = r `par` (l `pseq` l + r) where l = fib (n-1) r = fib (n-2) main = forM_ [0..45] $ \i -> printf "n=%d => %d\n" i (fib i)
We compile it with the `-threaded` flag:
$ ghc -O2 -threaded --make fib.hs [1 of 1] Compiling Main ( fib.hs, fib.o ) Linking fib ...
And run it with:
+RTS -Nx
where 'x' is the number of cores you have (or a slightly higher value). Here, on a quad core linux system:
./fib +RTS -N4 76.81s user 0.75s system 351% cpu 22.059 total
So we were able to use 3.5/4 of the available cpu time. And this is typical, most problems aren't easily scalable, and we must trade off work on more cores, for more overhead with communication.

2 Thread primitives
Control.Concurrent Control.Concurrent
For explicit concurrency and/or parallelism, Haskell implementations have a light-weight thread system that schedules logical threads on the available operating system threads. These light and cheap threads can be created with forkIO. (We won't discuss full OS threads which are created via
forkOS, as they have significantly higher overhead and are only useful in a few situations like in FFIs.)
forkIO :: IO () -> IO ThreadId
Lets take a simple Haskell application that hashes two files and prints the result:
import Data.Digest.Pure.MD5 (md5) import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as L import System.Environment (getArgs) main = do [fileA, fileB] <- getArgs hashAndPrint fileA hashAndPrint fileB hashAndPrint f = L.readFile f >>= return . md5 >>= \h -> putStrLn (f ++ ": " ++ show h)
This is a straight forward solution that hashs the files one at a time printing the resulting hash to the screen. What if we wanted to use more than one processor to hash the files in parallel?
One solution is to start a new thread, hash in parallel, and print the answers as they are computed:
import Control.Concurrent (forkIO) import Data.Digest.Pure.MD5 (md5) import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as L import System.Environment (getArgs) main = do [fileA,fileB] <- getArgs forkIO $ hashAndPrint fileA hashAndPrint fileB hashAndPrint f = L.readFile f >>= return . md5 >>= \h -> putStrLn (f ++ ": " ++ show h)
Now we have a rough program with great performance boost - which is expected given the trivially parallel computation.
But wait! You say there is a bug? Two, actually. One is that if the main thread is finished hashing fileB first, the program will exit before the child thread is done with fileA. The second is a potential for garbled output due to two threads writing to stdout. Both these problems can be solved using some inter-thread communication - we'll pick this example up in the MVar section.

3 Synchronisation with locks
Locking mutable variables (MVars) can be used to great effect not only for communicating values (such as the resulting string for a single function to print) but it is also common for programmers to use their locking features as a signaling mechanism.
MVars are a polymorphic mutable variables that might or might not contain a value at any given time. Common functions include:
newMVar :: a -> IO (MVar a) newEmptyMVar :: IO (MVar a) takeMVar :: MVar a -> IO a putMVar :: MVar a -> a -> IO () isEmptyMVar :: MVar a -> IO Bool
Lets now generalize the example to operate on any number of files, block until the hashing is complete, and print all the results from just one thread so no stdout garbling occurs.
{-# LANGUAGE BangPatterns #-} import Data.Digest.Pure.MD5 import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as L import System.Environment import Control.Concurrent import Control.Monad (replicateM_) main = do files <- getArgs str <- newEmptyMVar mapM_ (forkIO . hashAndPrint str) files printNrResults (length files) str printNrResults i var = replicateM_ i (takeMVar var >>= putStrLn) hashAndPrint str f = do bs <- L.readFile f let !h = show $ md5 bs putMVar str (f ++ ": " ++ h)
$ ghc exMVar.hs -o exMVar-threaded --make -O2 -threaded $ time ./exMVar-threaded +RTS -N2 -RTS 2GB 2GB 2GB 2GB 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb real 0m40.524s $ time ./exMVar-threaded +RTS -N1 -RTS 2GB 2GB 2GB 2GB 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb 2GB: b8f1f1faa6dda5426abffb3a7811c1fb real 1m8.170s
3.1 Further reading
4 Message passing channels
Continuing with our hashing example, lets say the names of the files needing hashed are coming available, or need streaming for other reasons. We can fork a set of worker threads and feed them the filenames through a channel. For consistancy, the program has also been modified to communicate the result from worker to printer via a channel.
{-# LANGUAGE BangPatterns #-} import Data.Digest.Pure.MD5 import qualified Data.ByteString.Lazy as L import System.Environment import Control.Concurrent import Control.Concurrent.Chan import Control.Monad (forever, forM_, replicateM_) nrWorkers = 2 main = do files <- getArgs str <- newChan fileChan <- newChan forM_ [1..nrWorkers] (\_ -> forkIO $ worker str fileChan) forM_ files (writeChan fileChan) printNrResults (length files) str printNrResults i var = replicateM_ i (readChan var >>= putStrLn) worker :: Chan String -> Chan String -> IO () worker str fileChan = forever (readChan fileChan >>= hashAndPrint str) hashAndPrint str f = do bs <- L.readFile f let !h = show $ md5 bs writeChan str (f ++ ": " ++ h)
Notice that this has advantages: results are available incrementally, and the performance has improved with the number of parallel hash operations matching the number of cores.

A druid was, in Celtic times, a member of the learned and priestly class (bards, magistrates, scholars, scientists, teachers, sacrificers, Seers, priests, etc.).[1]
Druids were, apparently, skilled in wandmaking and, considering anything with a woody stem a tree, produced wands made of vine, a tradition that was still followed by Garrick Ollivander in the 20th century.[2]

All prints are Digital Pigment prints on museum-quality acid-free papers such as Museum Etching, Canson Rag and Arches Velin. These papers are designed to meet galleries and museum longevity requirements and ensure consistency of shades 200 years old. The choice of paper is suggested by the Photographer according to his or her preferences.
All prints are Digital Pigment Prints using the latest top of the line technology, archival high dynamic inks and 200 years old life paper.
No, the photograph is not signed, instead the Photographer signs a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) which accompanies very limited edition prints (1 to 30). The COA protects the security and genuineness of your limited edition print. Larges editions (31 and more) don't come with a certificate of authenticity.
The smaller print sizes are produced in larger editions and do not come with a Certificate Of authenticity to make them more widely accessible and more affordable. Photographs are available in different formats depending of the artist, small, medium or larger scale. The large-scale print size is normally produced in a very limited edition (1-30 prints) making them more valuable because of the limited number available and they also come with a signed and numbered certificate of authenticity.
The Print Atelier aims to achieve accuracy between the photographs you see online and your final print. However we cannot be responsible for minimal differences deriving from reproduction techniques that may exist between the presented image and the print. Computer screens may differ and the colour and contrasts of the image on the screen may not look exactly like what you receive. This is because different types of monitors are calibrated differently. Also, any prints with a soft focus or texture work (grain, spots, etc.) were created that way for artistic purposes.
No. Our prints are on standard paper sizes and we don't alter the image size and proportions to fit the paper. Each print has a minimum 0.5 inch white border.

New Yorker versus New York Visitors are not touched by the same aspects of the city. While the dense amount of skyscrapers and the quantity of people in the city amaze tourists, New Yorkers are kept in their thought, stressed and objective. Living in NYC for 3 years, Robin, who was also a stressed worker of the city, started to look for visual escape within the usual ''scrap'' that we face when we live in the city not looking ''up'' anymore. This results in a serie named «Inside escape» that allows any kind of New Yorker to travel over there.

Vicodin HP
The most frequently reported adverse reactions are lightheadedness, dizziness, sedation, nausea and vomiting. These effects seem to be more prominent in ambulatory than in nonambulatory patients, and some of these adverse reactions may be alleviated if the patient lies down.
Other adverse reactions include
Central Nervous System
Drowsiness, mental clouding, lethargy, impairment of mental and physical performance, anxiety, fear, dysphoria, psychic dependence, mood changes.
Gastrointestinal System
Prolonged administration of VICODIN HP (hydrocodone bitrate and acetaminophen tablets) Tablets may produce constipation.
Genitourinary System
Ureteral spasm, spasm of vesical sphincters and urinary retention have been reported with opiates.
Respiratory Depression
Hydrocodone bitartrate may produce dose-related respiratory depression by acting directly on the brain stem respiratory centers (see OVERDOSAGE).
Special Senses
Cases of hearing impairment or permanent loss have been reported predominantly in patients with chronic overdose.
Skin rash, pruritus.
The following adverse drug events may be borne in mind as potential effects of acetaminophen: allergic reactions, rash, thrombocytopenia, agranulocytosis.
Potential effects of high dosage are listed in the OVERDOSAGE section.
Drug Abuse And Dependence
Misuse, Abuse, and Diversion of Opioids
VICODIN HP (hydrocodone bitrate and acetaminophen tablets) contains hydrocodone, an opioid agonist, and is a Schedule III controlled substance. VICODIN HP (hydrocodone bitrate and acetaminophen tablets) , and other opioids, used in analgesia can be abused and are subject to criminal diversion.
Addiction is a primary, chronic, neurobiologic disease, with genetic, psychosocial, and environmental factors influencing its development and manifestations. It is characterized by behaviors that include one or more of the following: impaired control over drug use, compulsive use, continued use despite harm, and craving. Drug addiction is a treatable disease utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, but relapse is common.
"Drug seeking" behavior is very common in addicts and drug abusers. Drug-seeking tactics include emergency calls or visits near the end of office hours, refusal to undergo appropriate examination, testing or referral, repeated "loss" of prescriptions, tampering with prescriptions and reluctance to provide prior medical records or contact information for other treating physician(s). "Doctor shopping" to obtain additional prescriptions is common among drug abusers and people suffering from untreated addiction.
Abuse and addiction are separate and distinct from physical dependence and tolerance. Physical dependence usually assumes clinically significant dimensions only after several weeks of continued opioid use, although a mild degree of physical dependence may develop after a few days of opioid therapy. Tolerance, in which increasingly large doses are required in order to produce the same degree of analgesia, is manifested initially by a shortened duration of analgesic effect, and subsequently by decreases in the intensity of analgesia. The rate of development of tolerance varies among patients. Physicians should be aware that abuse of opioids can occur in the absence of true addiction and is characterized by misuse for non-medical purposes, often in combination with other psychoactive substances. VICODIN HP (hydrocodone bitrate and acetaminophen tablets) , like other opioids, may be diverted for non-medical use. Record-keeping of prescribing information, including quantity, frequency, and renewal requests is strongly advised.
Proper assessment of the patient, proper prescribing practices, periodic re-evaluation of therapy, and proper dispensing and storage are appropriate measures that help to limit abuse of opioid drugs.
Read the Vicodin HP (hydrocodone bitartrate and acetaminophen tablets) Side Effects Center for a complete guide to possible side effects
Patients receiving narcotics, antihistamines, antipsychotics, antianxiety agents, or other CNS depressants (including alcohol) concomitantly with VICODIN HP (hydrocodone bitrate and acetaminophen tablets) Tablets may exhibit an additive CNS depression. When combined therapy is contemplated, the dose of one or both agents should be reduced.
The use of MAO inhibitors or tricyclic antidepressants with hydrocodone preparations may increase the effect of either the antidepressant or hydrocodone.
Drug/Laboratory Test Interactions
Acetaminophen may produce false-positive test results for urinary 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid.

Ben Johnson, The White House Watch
Obama scored another historical first on Friday, becoming the first president to see the U.S. credit rating downgraded by Standard & Poor's, from AAA to AA+. While we hope his presidential reign lasts no longer than January 2013, Americans may have to live with the consequences of Obamanomics for more than a decade to come. The chairman of Standard & Poor's sovereign debt ratings, John Chambers, told ABC's This Week program on Sunday the United States could be stuck with the lower credit rating between nine and 18 years. "We've had five governments that lost their AAA that got it back," he said. "The amount of time that it took for those five range from 9 years to 18 years." He forecast that digging America out of the debt ditch "could take awhile," and that it would require two things: "a stabilization of the debt as a share of the economy and eventual decline" and "more ability to reach consensus in Washington than what we're observing now."
The president's commitment to deficit spending and unwillingness to make enforceable budget cuts leave a grim prognosis. But the outlook gets worse. As this author noted Friday, there is a chance America will be downgraded yet again. Chambers placed the odds of a future downgrade at one-in-three. Scoring a AA rating would place the Land of the Free on equal terms with Spain and Qatar.
These realities had Obama in full Alinsky mode during his 1 p.m. speech (which took place at two o'clock this afternoon). He opened by saying, while Tea Party intransigence forced S&P to cut our debt rating, "The markets, on the other hand, continue to believe our credit status is AAA." To bolster his case, he added, "Warren Buffett, who knows a thing or two about good investments, said, 'If there were a quadruple-A rating, I'd give the United States that.'" Even as he spoke, the stock market was in free fall. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 634.76 points this afternoon. The slide capped off a string of losses so severe that CNBC reports, on this eighth day of the month, "August is already on track to be the worst month for the S&P [500] and Nasdaq since Oct. 2008," the first full month of the economic meltdown. And despite earning the Obama administration's seal of approval, Standard & Poor's marked down Buffett's Birkshire Hathaway holding conglomerate from "stable" to "negative" today.

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner eschewed presidential responsibility, as well. "Congress ultimately owns the credit rating of the United States," he said. This would be true in the sense that Obama offered absolutely no leadership during the debate and presented no plan of his own but would overlook the president's addiction to deficit spending and hostility to fiscal (or political) responsibility. Geithner, suddenly discovering the Founding Fathers, noted Congress has "the power of the purse in the Constitution." That fact did not keep Geithner from publicly musing about having Obama unilaterally raise the debt ceiling in late June, leading to a chorus of Democrats demanding the president invoke the 14th Amendment to claim the power of the purse as his own.
Not everyone is reading from the same script, though. As usual, Bill and Hillary Clinton have taken the crisis to spin things in their favor. The Hill newspaper reports former Clinton administration appointees, who insisted on remaining anonymous, said Obama….
