I could never make the Supertuck work for me, for a variety of reasons. Glad you are happy with yours. I'm not sure about your wardrobe comment. What were you using before?
This is a discussion on Crossbreed Supertuck IWB for G19 - thumbs up! within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Finally I can carry my G19 well concealed and comfortably without wearing super loose clothes.

Finally I can carry my G19 well concealed and comfortably without wearing super loose clothes. Ordering for my Kahr CM9 but will get the mini.
Highly recommended.
I could never make the Supertuck work for me, for a variety of reasons. Glad you are happy with yours. I'm not sure about your wardrobe comment. What were you using before?
I tried a couple of soft sided leather and nylon IWB holsters but I returned them and I cant remember what they were, then I went with a Galco OWB which was very nice and I will keep it but harder to conceal. I am 5'9, 170lbs, wear a 33 waist jean btw.
I can't speak to the mag holders, but if their belt is any indicator of quality and utility, I would be comfortable giving them a try.
The slide vs. belt hole observation is spot-on, as well. The level of micro-adjustment it provides makes a huge difference compared to a conventional belt.
GLOCK 19 in a CBST is what I carry everyday. Glad you have found the setup!

With great power comes great responsibility.-Stan Lee
My wife bought me a Cross Breed 2yrs ago so I could carry my XD40 here in Az and it is the best I have ever used, then I added a XD45 and it fits just great. I am 5ft 11in and 182lbs and at 72yrs old I sit in odd positions and on the drive from Az. to Or. it was the best with T-shirt or light short sleeve over shirt. From the 50s when I first started to carry full time I have tried many holsters and this one works for me, one other thing they let my test drive it for 2wks. For back-up I use a Fobus ankle holster. I am on the hunt for a good mag holder for my 13rd 45, have tried several but still on the hunt if anyine has got some in mind shout it out.
Just finished 3 years with my CBST. Still no complaints.
"The flock sleep peaceably in their pasture at night because Sheepdogs stand ready to do violence on their behalf."
excellent holster... +1 I got mine 2 weeks ago for my g19 gen4.. and I am wearing this right now to break in the leather..
I use Wilderness IB too. The micro adjustment is huge. In fact just for the heck of it, I wore my brommeland combat dress yesterday, and immediately noticed the difference, still a very good belt in itself, but I couldve bought 2 more WIB for the price I paid on that one. Got my WIB back on today.
For you guys with a Supertuck G19 and a mini, have a question. I find that sometime, my mini for my PM9 digs into my hip when sitting, nothing major. But never do I notice this with the G19 and supertuck and I never have this problem with any of my Max Cons (brommeland). So Ive come to the conclusion that the flap that comes down on the Max con and of course the the ST for is extended for the G19 which acts similiarly is key.. Anyone else experiencing this with both?
Notice the mtac has the similiar extension so I may check that one out too.

DMZ - the World's Hottest Borderwritten by wil6ka on 2012-06-06 #places
It is most likely the one border that is constantly in the focus of the world. The demarcation line between North and South Korea is always hot and edgy. You better hold your horses and don't get silly, because the soldiers have their finger on the trigger. But beside from that, the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) in South Korea can also be considered as a political version of Disneyland.2 6 Share Tweet

The thing about the USA and especially my area of it is that we have a forgotten history. People forget to mention things because it doesn't fit nice and easy into our preferred narrative. Anyways in Connecticut our best industries have been things like tobacco farming, cloth production (from cotton grown by southern slaves), and gun making….

Hello, I was wondering if there are any cosmetic doctors in the Chicago or Milwaukee vicinity that specialize in the bone cement technique that contours that skull shape? I was interested in this procedure because there are a few slight depressions on both sides of my cranium and I would like to have a more uniform and nicely rounded skull. Also, is bone cement actually made of bone components, or is the material a sort of metal?

Oven door stuck
My friend has a 15-20 year old Kennmore oven and someone used oven cleaner & somehow messed it up and now the door won't open. Latch moves but still won't open. Tried oven heat and settings but no results. Does anyone know how I can get the door open?
there will be access to the lock mechanism.
may have to access the lock mechanism from the rear panel, just depending on who made the stove
Thanks everyone. sorry to be so late. found out that the problem was nothing but two screws on the bottom of the door were not there someone somehow removed them, why? I'll never know. That caused the door to tilt and the lock would not move. A little pry up and to the side with the door did the trick. Anyway something like that. Very embarrsing.
:huh: :eek: :furious: :jester: :laughing: :whistling2:

Sneak Peek From The Filming of The Help in Jackson, Mississippi
Mississippi is a buzz as filming for the movie "The Help" is underway. The film, based on the bestselling Kathryn Stockett book, is being shot in a number of MS locations. This week they're shooting in Jackson. From a Wapt.com story:
"The film, which is expected to be released in 2011, stars Emma Stone and Bryce Dallas Howard and is directed by Tate Taylor.
Filmmakers sent the Fondren area back in time Wednesday, with classic cars and actors dressed in period clothing, to film scenes at Brent's Drugs on Duling Avenue.
Some members of the production team grew up and Jackson and said they worked to shoot it in their hometown.
"We knew if we could convince them to bring the production here that we would make a fabulous film, and it's just been great," said Brunson Green, a member of the production team."
A number of Mississippi bloggers have posted images of the filming (or at least the incredible way that the streets in the Fondren area have been transformed to look like the 1960s).
Our friends at EatJxn shared these photos.
We'd love to hear and see more. If you've been part of filming of "The Help" (we know they are using lots of extras from the area) or taken photos of the transformed streets in Jackson or other Southern locations, please share them with us!

Lordy Lou, I put my hair through so much! It gets washed, blow dried and flat ironed on the regular so I don't blame it for being angry at me. When I received a generous sample of Toni & Guy Heat Protection Mist ($15/5oz) from Birchbox, my hair started weeping with relief. This heat protection spray is designed to protect hair up to 230 C/446 F (wow- that's hot!) It also helps to defrizz strands, provide softness, shine and keep static to a minimum. It may be sprayed generously on towel-dried hair or right before you flat iron or curl it for extra protection. The mist is clear and lightweight with a lovely floral scent that is not overpowering. So, did this mist protect my poor hair from further pain and suffering? More importantly, can I use this spray to protect me in all aspects of my life? (i.e. pms hell, rude people, traffic...)
Verdict: Likey! This mist is lightweight, therefore, it may be used as generously as you please on damp hair. It also has a detangling effect which is a great bonus. It smells yummy and leaves my hair shiny, silky, smooth and healthy looking. My brunette color looks richer and deeper due to the shine effects it provides. It does not volumize though, so I had to add a separate hair product for that to happen. I really liked all the protective benefits it provided especially since I'm so hardcore with my hair.
To purchase or not to purchase? Definitely. It's lightweight without leaving any greasy residue behind, smells wonderful, protects, detangles, smooths and imparts a healthy shine to the hair. While it's not volumizing for me (nor does it promise that), I reaped many benefits with its use. Toni & Guy, thanks for all the protection! For info/purchase, head to birchbox.com or hairmeetwardrobe.com.
Below is a 2oz sample size:

Sockeye Salmon Range
Fast Facts
- Type:
- Fish
- Diet:
- Omnivore
- Average life span in the wild:
- 3 to 5 years
- Size:
- Up to 33 in (84 cm)
- Weight:
- 5 to 15 lbs (2.3 to 7 kg)
- Group name:
- Bind or run
- Did you know?
- Sockeye salmon meat gets its color from the orange krill they eat while in the ocean.
- Relative:
- Size relative to a 6-ft (2-m) man
Please add a "relative" entry to your dictionary.
The name sockeye comes from a poor attempt to translate the word suk-kegh from British Columbia's native Coast Salish language. Suk-kegh means red fish.
The sockeye, also called red or blueback salmon, is among the smaller of the seven Pacific salmon species, but their succulent, bright-orange meat is prized above all others. They range in size from 24 to 33 inches (60 to 84 centimeters) in length and weigh between 5 and 15 pounds (2.3 to 7 kilograms).
Like all other Pacific salmon, they are born in fresh water. However, sockeye require a lake nearby to rear in. Once hatched, juvenile sockeyes will stay in their natal habitat for up to three years, more than any other salmon. They then journey out to sea, where they grow rapidly, feeding mainly on zooplankton. They stay in the ocean for one to four years.
Sea-going sockeyes have silver flanks with black speckles and a bluish top, giving them their "blueback" name. However, as they return upriver to their spawning grounds, their bodies turn bright red and their heads take on a greenish color. Breeding-age males have a distinctive look, developing a humped back and hooked jaws filled with tiny, easily visible teeth. Males and females both die within a few weeks after spawning.
Sockeyes are the third most abundant of the species of Pacific salmons and are a keystone in the North American commercial fisheries.

Opinion: Has the New iPad Mini Parody Gone Too Far?
Tiffany Kaiser
October 22, 2012 11:45 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The iPad Mini is expected to be announced Oct. 23
You probably thought Apple CEO Tim Cook would
announce the iPad Mini on Oct. 23
, but a new video has Steve Jobs' ghost doing the job while rap battling other tech giants that dare to challenge the new iDevice.
The video, created by Mondo Media, is a parody video that makes fun of Apple, the iPad Mini and Apple's rivals.
The video opens with Tim Cook, who is portrayed as a fannypack-wearing, unhip Apple leader who attempts to rap about the iPad Mini's announcement. The audience's disapproval brings
Steve Jobs
back from the grave in the form of a ghost, who takes over the show in an epic rap battle with the likes of Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos.
Jobs' ghost later performs a rather inappropriate action to Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, and continues to rub the iPad Mini in everyone's face.
Some could say the video is disrespectful and goes a bit too far -- even for a parody -- while others have gotten a laugh out of it and moved on. Personally, I chuckled a couple of times throughout the video, but thought it was kind of ridiculous overall (in a "not-that-entertaining" sort of way). I don't agree with making fun of the dead, but let's be honest -- there is
worse on the Internet.
What do you think?
iPad Mini
, which is the 7.85-inch version of the iPad, is expected to be announced Oct. 23.
"You can bet that Sony built a long-term business plan about being successful in Japan and that business plan is crumbling." -- Peter Moore, 24 hours before his Microsoft resignation

You fix the water vessel and move the stick end around your site, the water level in the tube will correspond to changes in the grade. The tubing must be clear, at least on the stick end so you can see the water level.

Front door flashing
So I repainted the front door and the metal and plastic weatherstripping or flashing as I am told it was called was broken on the plastic part. The only replacement I can find is not the flat 1 1/2 inch wide piece, it is 3/4 in width at Lowes and Home Depot. I will have to resand and repaint the door jamb if I cannot find the bigger piece which I really don't want to do. I have searched the internet and cannot find anything that wide on a residential level, only a commercial level. The piece is metal and plastic with the metal being about 1 in and then the plastic. Does anyone have a suggestion where I can find this for a front door?
any local siding contractor can make this up for you

County bringing 911 services under one roof
A call to 911, depending where it's placed in Bergen County, may be handled by a dispatcher only minutes down the road, a routing center in the next town or even by a regional center 20 miles away.
It's a complex, often shifting patchwork of systems — some primarily taking calls, some primarily doing dispatch and some doing both. County officials think the $12.4 million Public Safety Operation Center in Mahwah can bring some unity to it.
Under County Executive Kathleen Donovan's proposed budget, the PSOC would receive nearly $2 million in additional funding. At the same time, the Bergen County Police Department is marketing the center directly to governing bodies as a cost-effective, state-of-the-art way for municipalities to handle emergency calls and dispatch first responders.
But it's a hard sell in some towns.
Many, such as Garfield, handle their own dispatch services and are in no hurry to shift operations to a regional center. The city ranked fifth in Bergen County in reported crimes — 495, according to the state's Uniform Crime Report for 2010, the latest year available. Police officials say they are satisfied with the city's existing infrastructure of five dispatchers.
"We toured the [county] facility there, and it's very impressive," Garfield Police Chief Kevin Amos said. "They truly do have the latest and greatest — it's state of the art. But we're satisfied with what we have in place."
And that is the crux of the county's challenge: It must convince towns that it is offering enough efficiency and potential savings for the towns to be willing to give up local control. It's the classic home rule dilemma. Some towns are willing to risk paying more to keep control of their systems. Others are giving in to budget pressures and regionalization. Still others are on the fence.
The county provides full emergency call and dispatching services for 11 towns and handles 911 calls for 10 others: Bogota, Cliffside Park, Cresskill, Ridgefield Park, South Hackensack, Wallington, Lyndhurst, Edgewater, Fairview and Little Ferry.
But it also competes with two other regional dispatch centers: the 18-year-old Northwest Bergen Central Dispatch, based in Ridgewood, which serves 13 towns, and the Paramus Police Department, which serves Paramus and 10 other towns. Both have steadily added clients through the years.
Montvale, Park Ridge and Woodcliff Lake, for example, dissolved their Tri-Boro Dispatch center in 2007 after operating it in Park Ridge since 1946. They joined Northwest Bergen Central.
"The equipment at that point had become antiquated," Montvale Police Chief Jeremy Abrams said. "A number of the full-time dispatchers had left or retired, and we were staffed by part-time dispatchers."
Montvale officials studied whether to upgrade their
equipment or join Northwest Bergen and found the latter "would be a considerable cost savings."
Abrams added that the switch has suited Montvale perfectly, and that there is no compelling reason to shift to the county system.
Yet a number of factors are forcing other municipalities to take a hard look at consolidating dispatch services. A state cap on property tax increases has tightened budgets and added considerable impetus to creating shared services agreements, said John G. Donnadio, executive director of the New Jersey Association of Counties. And a new federal rule known as the Narrowband Mandate requires towns to upgrade their communications systems by 2013.
"Municipalities are struggling to make ends meet," Donnadio said. "So we're seeing a movement of towns looking more and more to the counties, in general, for greater shared services and for dispatch, in particular. You don't miss a beat with the level of services provided by consolidating dispatch."
The state Office of Emergency Telecommunications Services commissioned Rutgers University in 2006 to study consolidating Public Safety Answering Points, or PSAP.
Its conclusions still hold true, said Shelley Bates, a spokeswoman for the state Office of Information Technology.
"It found that all government sectors would benefit from consolidating call centers, and that those call centers, in so doing, would have more qualified staff on duty," she said. "So, larger operations benefit from efficiencies in scale in the long term. This is why we welcome the opportunity for any PSAP to consolidate."
Putting more towns under the PSOC's umbrella is a goal for 2012, County Police Chief Brian Higgins said, adding that the county can reduce its prices if more towns join.
"There's nobody out there offering what we have here in the county center," Higgins said. "I really don't know if there would be cost savings at all by continuing to run dispatch out of a local police department. And we're here. That's the best part. We're already built."
The PSOC, on the grounds of the Bergen County Police and Fire Academy in Mahwah, was completed in late September 2010, replacing a cramped and aging facility in Hackensack.
Through it, the county can provide 24-hour coverage of 911, police, fire and emergency medical services calls on a unified radio system accessible to all its member towns. It is staffed by 38 full-time employees, said Capt. Mark Lepinski, communications director and 911 coordinator for the Bergen County Police Department. The main room of its dispatch center is dominated by a huge video screen that displays the locations of county police vehicles and incoming 911 calls.
The center was completed at the end of County Executive Dennis McNerney's tenure. County Administrator Edward Trawinski said that when the incoming officials from Donovan's administration looked at the facility in late 2010, they discovered it had been built with an expectation that the PSOC would sell itself.
Trawinski said he has since worked with Lepinski to develop a marketing plan that will be presented to the Board of Freeholders in the next few months. It will describe how the facility can generate enough revenue to offset its costs, Trawinski said.
About a dozen municipalities are negotiating a switch to the county dispatch system, Lepinski said. He declined to name them, saying that talks were continuing.
He also said he is putting together a list of answers to frequently asked questions for towns interested in joining the county system. A common question is whether a switch to the center in Mahwah will slow response times.
"It doesn't cause a delay — it's the same as if we were there," Lepinski said. "In some cases, it actually expedites the process by having the 911 center in the same location as your dispatch. There's one less layer of transfer."
Lodi is the latest town to switch to the county center. The Borough Council agreed last year to a five-year, $1.175 million contract for dispatch services, effective Jan. 1. Police dispatching cost the borough about $350,000 a year in salaries, health benefits and equipment, which made the county system an attractive, cost-saving alternative, Borough Manager Tony Luna said.
Of Lodi's six former dispatchers, three have chosen to work in Mahwah at the PSOC, Police Chief Vincent Caruso said.
"The No. 1 thing for us and our community was that this is a cost-saving measure," Caruso said. "Our dispatchers did a wonderful job for many years, but it just became too cost prohibitive."
Several municipalities in the Pascack Valley have been openly debating whether to outsource emergency communications to the county.
Westwood Police Chief Frank Regino said he has made a handful of visits to the county's facility in Mahwah, "as well as Northwest in Ridgewood, and they are both very good operations."
"I have no trepidation about the county center," Regino said. "But from my personal experience, I know how things operate in the Pascack Valley and how things work at the departments that surround ours."
Regino, joined by the chiefs of six adjoining towns — Hillsdale, Emerson, River Vale, Old Tappan, Westwood, and Washington Township — led an initiative late last year to consider the formation of a shared dispatch center.
The study found it would be more cost effective for municipalities to outsource to Northwest or to the county. Emerson and Hillsdale have since withdrawn from the consortium, and the four remaining towns plan to turn their emergency communications over to Westwood next week for an eight-hour test run. If all goes well, a 24-hour trial will follow a week later.
The test runs will help determine whether transferring dispatch to Westwood's command center is a viable option.
Norwood, Cresskill and Harrington Park have already migrated to the county system. Northvale signed on a year ago.
"It had some wrinkles, like everything else that's new, but it seems to be working out OK," Northvale Mayor Paul Bazela said, adding that the move already has saved the borough thousands of dollars.
Hillsdale Mayor Max Arnowitz said he hopes the borough makes a decision about emergency communications before spring, and said officials are considering two options.
Arnowitz first visited the county's site last year, but said discussions about dispatching began in 2010. He favors joining the PSOC.
"Anyone who lives in Bergen County paid for Mahwah," he said. "So why not use a facility you already partially paid for?"

Ten years after first visiting as a backpacker, Craig Platt discovers London's a different town when you've got money.
It was my first big overseas holiday as an adult – the obligatory trip to London, followed by a Contiki tour of Europe.
I was in my early 20s, low on cash and keen for a taste of the world. But I wasn't quite ready to move to London as some of my friends had done. As it turns out, I never did – and my first visit had a lot to do with that.
Now, in my early 30s, I'm back in London for the first time in 10 years and the experience could not be more different.
This time around, I'm not dossing on the floor of my friend's flat. Back in 2001, it was a reasonable enough, two-bedroom place in Kensington.
Reasonable for two people to share, that is.
Unfortunately, London rents being what they were, and hospitality industry wages being what they were, there were far more than two people sharing the place. Five girls – two in the master bedroom, one in the other bedroom (which was so small the bed could not be walked around – there was literally no floor space), two more beds in the lounge room and, to top it off, three crashers from Australia on the lounge-room floor – including one serious snorer (not me).
After a couple of nights of this communal living we headed off on a road trip around the UK. With a new batch of Aussies arriving to stay on the floor at the London flat, we opted to stay at a youth hostel when we came back to town.
Unfortunately, we'd failed to book far enough in advance and the only decent hostel we could find with rooms available (more accurately, the only hostel listed in the Lonely Planet Britain guide with vacancies) was in Epping.
Epping: located relative to London in the exact same place it is in Melbourne – the far, far north-east. This meant an hour-long train ride to get into central London. It also meant there were to be no nights on the town – our Epping youth hostel locked the doors at 10pm.
Now I'm back in London, almost 10 years later, and it's quite a change. I've been working full time since leaving university and actually have a disposable income. To top it off, the Australian dollar now buys 63 pence. On my first visit it bought 34p, compounding an already expensive trip.
This time, I can actually afford to stay in a hotel, and a decent one at that. I splurge on London's Langham, the second oldest hotel in the city. Even at a discounted rate, it's still more than I've ever spent on a hotel room before.
But what a room: it's huge, with a bedroom and a sitting room. It looks out on to Langham Square and the BBC's corporate headquarters, just a block up from Oxford Street. A friend who visits is excited by the fact the room has its own doorbell.
The hotel was opened in 1865 by the then Prince of Wales (later to become King Edward VII) and, at the time, was one of the largest buildings in London, with more than 600 rooms. Langham took over the hotel from Hilton in 2004 and the building has since undergone an 80 million pound refurbishment of its facilities (now with just 380 rooms).
It's hard to drag myself away from a hotel like this, but I do want to take advantage of the hotel's central location to actually visit some of the city's highlights (many of which are within convenient walking distance).
London feels different this time. For one thing, it's less intimidating than it was when I had barely travelled beyond Australia's borders. It didn't help that on my first morning in London 10 years an elderly gentleman took my picture without asking and then attempted to charge me for it (and became angry when I refused). It was a scary place for a young country lad.
Now I'm older, wiser and (probably) look a lot less like a naïve tourist than I did back then.
London also seems less intimidating because it seems smaller than I remember. (Although the fact I'm staying on Regent Street and not commuting for an hour from Epping probably helps.)
Indeed, I realise this time just how many of London most famous locations and attractions are within a short walk of each other. Trafalgar Square is mere minutes away from Piccadilly Circus, and on a bright spring day Hyde Park is an easy 15 minute walk from the hotel. Buckingham Palace is another short walk from there and, after meeting a friend at the Victoria Memorial, we take another short stroll to Westminster to take a ride on the Eye and enjoy the views of Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament.
Of course, I did most of these things on my first visit, but it feels different this time. I feel less like I'm ticking boxes and more like I'm actually just wandering about, actually taking the time to enjoy the city.
We have an excellent dinner at an Indian restaurant near Piccadilly Circus and I'm thankful that, this time around, we didn't need to peer uncomfortably in the windows beforehand to figure out if we could afford to eat there or not.
I don't regret not moving to London, even though I've seen a lot less of Europe than some of my friends who did. And, for me at least, it always remains an option as I hold dual Australia-UK citizenship (though the state of Britain's economy at present doesn't make it an attractive professional destination).
For the moment though, comfortable, if brief, visits to one of the world's great cities will suit me just fine.
The writer travelled to London as a guest of AirAsia X.

Well, T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide owners will have to wait for the next software update to go gaga – seeing that this upcoming one is merely filled with bug fixes and improvements. Nonetheless, we're certain that many people will still be glad to see the photo-centric taking handset getting some love. Specifically, the new software update features a Google security fix and a host of improvements that center around Wi-Fi calling, the Genius Button, and Netflix app experience.
Beyond those items, there isn't anything particularly resounding with it. Though, in terms of availability, it's scheduled to start rolling out tomorrow, December 20th – where it'll continue being rolled out until January 16th. Therefore, you can obviously start manually checking for it starting tomorrow if you don't receive the nifty notification.
Looking ahead to the future, it's anyone's guess on when it'll be upgraded to ICS.

WHEN we gave a qualified welcome to Chris Huhne's electricity reform white paper two weeks ago, we pointed out that electricity is only 18 per cent of Britain's energy story. The other 82 per cent is even more dire: Britain's strategic energy position is worse than post-nuclear Germany's will be.
However, because our situation is evolving from natural tendencies rather than dramatic parliamentary votes, no-one is facing up to it with anything like the same directness.
Concern focuses on the grand issues of carbon, fuel prices and security of supply, but not on the simple fact that the supply and demand figures no longer add up.
Apart from two shorts spells, Britain's primary energy balance has been in decline since 1911. A long-time perspective is important. Energy sources need lots of investment and take years to get online, production eventually reaches a peak and then output dwindles.
The abundance of energy resources - primarily coal - was one of the reasons Britain gained and retained its leadership of the industrial revolution. After taking off in the 18th century, Britain's coal production peaked at 178 million tonnes of oil equivalent (mtoe) in 1913. Coal output is now less than 10 mtoe.
Nuclear energy came along in the 1950s, but "peak nuke" was in 1998, at 23 mtoe, and output is now less than half that. North Sea gas production began in the mid-1960s, and "peak gas" was in 2000 at 94 mtoe, but is now below 60. Oil started up in 1975, and Britain's peak oil year was 1994, with 132 million tonnes produced, but output is now only 60 million.
So, except for gas, which is dropping fast, all our primary fuel outputs have fallen to less than half their peak. Renewables, though rising, are too small to be seen on a graph with the naked eye at less than 1.5 per cent of consumption.
What have these peaks and declines in production done to the energy balance? Until the start of the Second World War, the UK had a surplus of energy, but after 1950 the demand began to outstrip the supply.
The gap grew due in equal measure to rising car ownership and declining coal production. This was not too serious an issue until 1973, because energy could be cheaply imported and new domestic sources were being brought forward.
Then Opec raised oil prices. North Sea resources didn't take off quite fast enough to save Britain's financial imbalances so, under chancellor Denis Healey, the UK economy came to be supervised by the International Monetary Fund.
Putting this oil equivalent story into money terms, from 1911 to 1975, an energy surplus of 2 per cent of GDP fell progressively away to a deficit of nearly 5 per cent. Between 1975 and 1983, the North Sea reversed that into a surplus of more than 2 per cent.
The country stayed in comfortable energy surplus through peak oil output in 1994 and peak gas output in 2000, carrying on until mid-2004.As oil production has since slid downwards, the balance has slipped again. George Osborne's Budget accelerated it and last month's lowering of the offshore ring-fence helped very little. By 2009, Britain's energy consumption exceeded its production by 50 per cent.
Figures from the Department of Energy and Climate Change let us track it month by month. It looks like a trend that is not for turning. At 2.5 per cent of GDP, the energy gap is equal to the total UK trade imbalance. Now the deficit is again approaching the Healey/ IMF territory. The physical difference is 65 mtoe, growing at about 7 mtoe per year. At current oil prices and exchange rates, this amounts to 33 billion a year, growing by at least 3.5bn a year.
In May 2010, Prime Minister David Cameron described his strategy for Britain as one of rebalancing the economy from financial services towards manufacturing. If and when it comes, it will have to deal with more than manufacturing and services. Much of Britain's economic imbalance is a matter of energy.

What I Learned Part 2
Click here for Part 1
So today I started out with a presentation on ethics training in forensic psychiatry. The most useful portion of that was an overview of teaching techniques used to bring out ethics discussion among students. The presenter gave demonstrations of mock trial testimony, videotaped assessments and vignettes involving ethical issues. I thought that was a nice way to keep people engaged and to challenge them a little bit.
Next was a presentation on neonaticide. It started with a presentation of a neonaticide case, then went on to a discussion of national 'safe haven' laws and judicial waiver laws for teenage abortion. A survey of courts in one state revealed that nearly two-thirds of the courts responsible for providing judicial waivers were not educated themselves in the waiver laws. (This reminded me of one of the presentations from yesterday---only 5% of surveyed judges knew what a 'standard error' was in relation to scientific tests, although all judges were responsible for being able to interpret scientific evidence.) The neonaticide talk ended with a videotaped interview of a woman who had committed neonaticide over 20 years before. I've interviewed neonaticide perpetrators so that itself wasn't new to me, but I did enjoy seeing a video of a young Phil Resnick doing the interview. I learned that if neonaticide perpetrators go on to have additional children they generally don't have parenting issues and don't reoffend. (I don't know what base rate data they have on that though.)
The poster sessions were better today. I liked the summary statistics of one state's competency referrals; only about 5% of all defendants were referred for evaluation of competency to stand trial, and on the average it took two months of treatment to restore the defendants who were found incompetent. One rather clever poster presented the results of a study done in Arkansas, where they looked at PRITE scores for psych residents before and after the founding of a forensic psychiatry fellowship. They found that the forensic psychiatry subscale of the PRITE improved significantly when comparing two year pre- and post-fellowship data.
In the afternoon I attended the peer review session that examined and critiqued videotaped testimony. I give extra brownie points to the AAPL members who volunteer their work product for review---the audience is NOT an easy crowd. But it's a good educational experience.
Finally, I attended the session on evaluation of chronic pain and disability. This is not something I commonly do, which was why I thought it would be good to attend. I received an excellent review of the neuroanatomy of pain as well as an overview of how to do a thorough impairment/disability evaluation. One of the speakers presented a meta-analysis of studies looking at litigation and compensation in relation to chronic pain. Not too surprisingly, there was a correlation between levels of reported pain, impairment, and the amount of compensation.
So that was Friday. Tomorrow: forensic aspects of clinical vampirism (I can't wait), false confessions, new landmark cases and computers. Stay tuned.

Julie Bowen Talks Style, Modern Family With Lucky Magazine
Posted on March 25, 2013
Actress Julie Bowen (Modern Family) covers the April 2013 issue of Lucky magazine. Julie's wearing a Tommy Hilfiger jacket on the cover. In the Lucky interview, Julie discusses having a stylist and her role as Claire on Modern Family.
On Her Decision to Have a Stylist: "It was a big evolution in style for me to grow up and say 'I need to take fashion seriously for my job.' I have a stylist now, and she's trying to get me to wear more revealing stuff. She's Kristen Stewart's stylist. I go there and see all this amazing funky stuff, and I know it's for her. If I get K-Stew's castoffs, that's all right with me."
On Her Role as Claire on Modern Family: "All I can say is, thank God for television! Our writers are flexible enough to write to my strengths and open-minded enough to imagine Claire in a car pool and naked in a hot spring. I needed good material. I'm not like Amy Poehler, who can make anything funny."
On Claire's Style: "Claire's a teensy bit bland and very un-trendy. But nothing is worse than watching a rerun of some show and getting distracted by the styles."

Re: Y'know Forumers...about the Story Mode...
Re: Y'know Forumers...about the Story Mode...[ Edited ]
Yeah, I completely understand that most fighting games have very simple, shallow storylines as a way of merely connecting fights together, and how they've said all along that this game would be along those lines. BUT because this is supposed to be about celebrating these great characters as they've said many times, I still thought that this would be a little different because to me this is no ordinary game. After seeing the Ratchet arcade mode via IGN, I felt the rival cutscene with Jak and Daxter was pretty lacking. After seeing it, I was disappointed in how little was actually said, and how their rivalry wasn't fleshed out at all. It was literally just: "There's two guys, they're not what we're looking for, now they're mad, Fight!"
Really? As much as their rivalry makes sense on paper, why is it not acknowledged at all in the cutscene? Where's the banter between the two duos that I think most people would have expected? At least say something like, "Hey, nice weapons. They're not as good as mine though!" or "Hey, you have a sidekick too, huh? Bet mine's better than yours!" and then go from there. There was nothing said that explains even a little bit WHY they should be rivals; they just are... Now maybe there's another cutscene after you beat your rival (I don't know yet), AND IT'S THE ONLY ONE I'VE SEEN SO FAR, (besides Heihachi vs Toro from way back when) but it just seems overall that they really missed an oppurtunity to satisfy the dream matchups that they've been playing up this whole time, especially the obvious ones like Ratchet vs Jak that people have dying to see.
Having said all that, this is all coming from a good place, and I mean no disrespect. This is all coming from my absolute excitement and adoration for this game. I'm still going to play the hell out of it when I finally get it. I just really thought that with what little amount of cutscenes they did have in place, they would make up for it by really delivering and just nailing them perfectly. Considering that the Arcade mode seems like a one-and-done type of thing, I assumed that they would really try to make that one time special with a truly memorable scene (like the Heihachi vs Toro scene - that was funny). Now, I could be wrong. Maybe I expect too much (probably...), and maybe only the Ratchet vs Jak scene falls flat, while all the others do work really well. It's just disappointing to see this one fall flat like it does, considering that it's probably the most anticipated rivalry, and knowing what could have been...
Re: Y'know Forumers...about the Story Mode...
Its just another thing to add to the massive list of things i was right about ages ago. lol

I am looking in to buying a Bypass oil filtering system either from Amsoil or from Oilguard.
Has anyone used either of these products? If so where did you end up locating the bypass filter? After looking under the hood there isn't much room for mounting.
Any information would help.

text: Chin Up, Chintz Down Chin Up, Chintz Down posted on 04/02/2013 by Adam * required fields From* To* Message cancel Chintz! Get used to it. Such was the mantra of any respectable design connoisseur since the pattern style emerged on fabrics some 400 years ago. (Non-respectable design connoisseur mantra: "Chintz! Collect them all!") Yes, chintz--the plural of chint, which, much like a lolcat, demands your "ess" sounds come strictly in the form of "zees". Why does chint exist? How has it managed to stick around for so long when things like Twin Peaks and Twinkies have come and gone without a fight? And how can we unite as a band of brethren to put an end to it once and for all, marching forth with a new battle cry: "Chintz! Smite and scourge to you evermore!" (Or perhaps the more family-friendly "Blintz, Not Chintz.") Let's lift up the dusty floral curtain at Grandma's house to see this faux pas for what it really is. First of all, there are a lot of people to blame for this, so get your pointing fingers out. Second of all, you might want to construct special chintz viewing goggles as you move through this post, so you don't cross over to the dark side. (Instructions here.) Chintz was (Or is it were? Damn you, chintz!) originally produced in India in the 1600s, using woodblock printing, painting and staining methods on calico until the end of the 18th century. Ever anxious to up their tacky quotient on the home front, Portuguese and Dutch traders started bringing chintz back to Europe almost immediately. In less than a century, they were spreading literal millions of pieces across the continent, like a pack of frenetic old-timey Rachel Ashwells, re-wallpapering your whole living room and swapping out all your glasses for little chintzy tea cups when all you did was run to the store for like 10 minutes and—my god—that's actually quite impressive, but also completely heinous, so please for the love of chrome and leather stop what you are doing and get out of my house! Oh my God, Rachel, what have you done? Phew—ok, easy now. No need to jump the centuries and get all hot and bothered about Shabby Chic, though surely it will burn in effigy on the day the Great Chintz Battle commences. From Rachel Ashwell's Shabby Chic blog, apparently frequented by practicing bulimics. Now, amidst this Renaissance-era chintz epidemic, there were some clear heads in government. To put it in the words of the English parliament themselves, in the year 1720 they banned "the Use and Warings in Apparel of imported chintz, and also its use or Wear in or about any Bed, Chair, Cushion, or other Household furniture." Yes, but you forgot the teacups! Oh the little teacups; I want to smash them. A very good place for testing out a new sledgehammer. There were other loopholes, too. Poorly-styled men, their minds undoubtedly ravaged by the constant sight of chintz (far worse than scurvy, no doubt), began to study and record the process for making the fabrics themselves, and sent information back to the doomed European folk. By 1759, the ban was lifted and chintz was tainting entire production lines in French and English mills. In fairness, this original design work was far superior to what chintz has become today. But this is largely due to the meritless credit anything gets for being over 200 years old. It's a crutch, a cheap lie—just a chintzy excuse. What people need to realize is that the chintz epidemic never really ended, just like ending the prohibition didn't rid the world of closet alcoholics (or as I like to call them, friends). And like those alcoholics, let me tell you: there are thousands if not millions of chintz sufferers who Need. Our. Help. For the next time you want to have a party, and then ruin it. Chintz is a blinding aesthetic cult that leaves its victims powerless. Just listen to this blogger (a professor no less!) rave: "I suppose, on a purely aesthetic level, I love the colors, the crisp imagery, the sheen and volume (a byproduct of all the sizing used to give the fabric added body and make it resemble fine silk taffeta) … You'd think it would induce vertigo, but it's actually rather pleasant in a mad and charming sort of way." Fine silk taffeta? This man is not on the same planet. He is on Planet Chintz, a native chintz-panzee, but at least he can admit it's "mad." Here's another example of the maddening effects of chintz. The people at Field Candy believe they can charge more than $600 for a pup tent. Take a chintzy product and cover it in chintz, and what? That's supposed to even out? Like a pup tent covered in chintz, that logic is just flimsy. A $600 chintz tent, the subject of my next scary campfire story. I'm telling you, people. Be warned. If we don't act now, chintz could start taking over the minds of our families, our friends, even our pets. Sarah McLachlan, where are you when we need you? Don't believe me? Maybe you'll believe a small, alternative weekly like the Wall Street Journal. It's coming. It is time to rise up! Hold your head high in the air and declare it: "Chintz! Smite and scourge to you evermore!" and/or "Blintz, Not Chintz." Who wants to make t-shirts? Related Articles IIDA Announces Second Annual Advocacy Symposium A Blitzing Beacon

Mercury is in Aquarius now, his sign of exaltation. Even better, he'll stay in the sign (for the most part) through mid-March, due to a retrograde period.
Like this:
Mercury – Aquarius – January 11, 2014
Mercury – Pisces – February 1, 2014
Mercury retrograde – February 6, 2104
Mercury Rx in Aquarius – February 12, 2014
Mercury direct in Aquarius – February 28th, 2014
Mercury leaves Aquarius on March 18, 2014
Mercury is brilliant in Aquarius. Expect Gemini and Virgo to perform exceptionally well during this time period as their minds will be liberated.
Mercury in Aquarius will work well with Mars in fellow Air sign, Libra. This combination is smart but not obnoxious! It's fast and light on it's feet.
Mercurial types are likely to have numerous innovative ideas at this time. However, easy come, easy go. Be ready to jot down what comes to you, because light bulbs that come on, don't necessarily stay on when Uranus is involved.
Look at the painting. Does it look like Mercury is going to hang around forever? No.
He's a messenger, babe, and that's it!
Are you looking forward to this transit as much as I am?

Bereavement, or grief, is a normal feeling of sadness that occurs following the loss of a loved one. Uncomplicated grief is believed to advance through a series of stages that, in many aspects, mimic the illness depression, raising questions as to
where normal bereavement ends and major depressive illness begins. The initial stage of grief occurs during the first few weeks after the loss and is experienced as feelings of disbelief and shock. It is commonly associated with bouts of crying, loss of appetite, loss of sexual drive, restless sleep or insomnia, lack of energy, and difficulty concentrating. In women, disturbances in the menstrual cycle are common.
The intermediate stage of grief takes place during the first year after the death of the loved one. During that phase, feelings of intense loneliness and sadness are accompanied by persistent thoughts about the death, the events leading up to the death, why it happened, and how it could have been prevented. Limited capacity for pleasure, lack of energy, sleep and appetite problems, and bouts of tearfulness persist to varying degrees.
The recovery phase of grief is the time when people begin to return to their social lives and "get on with life." That usually begins about the second year following the loss.
Little is known about the actual duration of normal grief. Studies of spouses and parents dealing with unexpected loss point to normal grief processes lasting up to seven years. Sudden death often causes bouts of grief that are more severe and longer lasting than the bereavement following an anticipated death.
Death of a spouse can have significant impact on the health of the surviving partner. Women tend to be at increased risk for health problems within the first three months after the loss. Men whose spouses die are particularly likely to develop emotional or physical problems during the first year after the loss and have an increased mortality rate. Bereaved men who remarry tend to have lower mortality rates than those who do not.
Death of a child is particularly likely to produce severe grief reactions regardless of the age of the parent and child. Bereaved parents experience high levels of psychological distress that are accompanied by changes in physical health, functional activities, and family cohesion, including an increased risk of divorce.
The distinction between "normal" grief and depression can be a difficult one to make. The two states share many similar
physical and emotional symptoms, and the duration of both can be prolonged. Grief can produce a preoccupation with guilt about actions taken or not taken surrounding the death of a loved one and thoughts that the survivor would be better off dead. Experiences of transiently hearing or seeing the deceased loved one can also be a part of the normal grief process, especiaUy in some cultures. Morbid rumination regarding other feelings of guilt, a sense of worthlessness, anticipated death of other loved ones, prolonged decrease in level of function, marked slowness of behavior or speech, reports of unusual beliefs, or persistent or recurring hallucinations should be considered outside the normal grief process and more indicative of a major depressive episode. When symptoms of severe grief extend more than two months beyond the death of a loved one, treatment with antidepressant medication may be needed in addition to supportive psychotherapy.
Grief in young children is most profound when it involves the death of a parent or a primary caretaker. It can produce such behaviors as crying, calling and searching for the deceased loved one, and refusing to be comforted. Emotional withdrawal often occurs and is associated with sad facial expressions, lethargy, and lack of interest in former activities. Eating and sleeping may be disrupted. Children may regress by losing some of their developmental milestones; i.e., toilet-trained toddlers may begin to soil themselves again. Bereaved young children may become detached and lack much facial expression. They often are very sensitive to any reminder of the lost loved one. Grief in young children is generally treated with supportive measures; use of antidepressant medication is usually not required.

Restaurateur Parmanand "Pancho" Yarna was discharged from hospital yesterday.
Yarna had been in hospital for almost two weeks after being shot by a stray bullet outside of his restaurant on Queen Street, Port-of-Spain.
Speaking with the T&T Guardian yesterday, Yarna said he would not return to work until his health improves.
Yarna, 60, had been kept at the Intensive Care Unit for most of his stay at the hospital.
Shortly before 6 am on June 13, he was talking to a fruit vendor outside of his business place, opposite the National Library, when he was shot.
Police said they believe he was hit by a stray bullet from a high-powered rifle, fired from east Port-of-Spain.
Doctors could not remove the bullet.
No one has been arrested.

Growthpoint Properties, South Africa's largest listed property trust, plans to more than double the size by market value of its Australian subsidiary, making it a $1 billion company.
The South African giant confirmed the scale of its Australian ambition when reporting its own healthy results to investors last week.
Its Australian offshoot, of which the parent owns more than 76 per cent, was worth about $400 million on the Australian stock exchange by the end of the last week.
It has also begun rights trading for a $101 million capital raising.
"Growthpoint will reduce its shareholding over time, which together with the proposed increased market capitalisation should improve the tradability and liquidity of the listed units, the South African trust said in the commentary for its results.
In South Africa, chief executive Norbert Sasse said that Growthpoint had boosted its full-year payout to investors by 6 per cent, helped by the Australian business.
But Mr Sasse declined to give a time frame for the increase.
"The investment in Australia is quite positive and growth in this business is quite healthy," Naeem Tilly, an analyst at Avior Research in South Africa said, and that the company was in a position to take advantage of the economic recovery.
Growthpoint said its payout to shareholders from rental income for the year to end-June increased to 121.1¢ per linked unit.

Team Type 1 – sanofi aventis has a slightly new official name following the scheduled rebranding of its main partner and will now be known as Team Type 1 – SANOFI, as riders prepare to race for the first time in newly designed kit this week at the Post Tour of Denmark.
"Team Type 1 – SANOFI is the same great squad of athletes, competing at the hardest bike races in the world to bring a message of hope for people touched by diabetes. In order to reflect the new colors and design of our partners at Sanofi, we changed the clothing used by the men's professional squad from August 1," said Team Type 1 Co-Founder and CEO Phil Southerland.
Eight riders will line up at the six-stage Post Danmark Rundt, which begins Wednesday with a 171km loop around the North Sea port town of Esbjerg.
Team Type 1 – SANOFI General Manager Vassili Davidenko said the flat profile of the course belied a strong field at this years Tour of Denmark, as the race is called in english.
"This is a 2.HC stage race, the highest classification on the European calendar outside of Grand Tours. The caliber of competition here is remarkably good, and each day will be a battle on the road to get out in front of the wind and claim the stage," Davidenko said.
Davidenko pointed to Friday's 181km stage 3 beginning in Arhus, with its three 5.5km finishing circuits on the narrow, cobbled streets of Vejle, and Saturday's 112km fourth stage, with its two long bridge crossings and the 300m "Morkemoesebjerg" wall before the finish in Frederiksvaerk, as the likely deciding factors in the six-stage race.
"The wind and roads will make a huge difference in this race. Jure Kocjan and Aldo Ino Ilesic can show very good results in this kind of punchy, snappy racing, and we will have some surprises in store with Alessandro Bazzana, who has been showing very strong form in the early part of the second half of the season. On Saturday night, don't forget, there is a downtown time trial that starts at 8 p.m. It's 13.2km on a very tricky course and we can see a strong time trialist like Laszlo Bodrogi come on very fast," Davidenko said.
Team Type 1 – SANOFI rider and co-founder Joe Eldridge called the Tour of Denmark "the high-point of the season".
"Our goal from day one has been to show people who have diabetes that with good control, anything is possible. Here in Denmark we will be racing against the top of the teams in the world, with riders who just finished the Tour de France. We're already racing against the best teams and the best riders in the best races, and every day on the bike for us is one step closer to our goal," Eldridge said.
Team Type 1 – Sanofi line up for the 2011 Post Danmark Rundt, UCI 2.HC

MG lives: The Chinese-built MG6 Fastback has its origins in the old Rover 75.
21 April 2009
By TERRY MARTIN
SAIC Motors unveiled two stunning new vehicles at this week's Shanghai motor show – the MG6 Fastback, which looks set to herald a return of MG to western markets, including the UK, and the Roewe N1 concept, which is also destined for Europe.
Details of the two vehicles remain scarce, but it is understood that both were designed at SAIC facilities in China and the UK, and are built on the former Rover 75-derived 'Roewe 550' platform architecture for export to global markets as well as sale in China.
Spotted testing in Europe earlier this year, the current 550 sedan is also expected to be a member of SAIC's new international brigade.
The N1 concept was developed in conjunction with Italian hi-tech components manufacturer Magnetti Marelli and features real-time traffic alerts, the latest digital navigational aids and a series of other 'web2.0' applications.
Not all of these features will make it into the production version, which overseas reports indicate should be released in China during 2010, with Europe to follow soon after.
SAIC bought the rights to the Rover 25 and 75 models in 2004, and also now owns MG rights-holder Nanjing Automotive.
The Chinese auto giant is understood to be developing a new small-car series, including a small sedan and a compact SUV, which will draw – to some extent – from the previous Rover 25.
SAIC differentiates between MG and the former Rover-based Roewe brand (which means "honour and prestige in Chinese) as follows: MG is all about "passion, personality and fun" while Roewe stands for "taste, science and technology".

Date of Stay: September, 2010
We stopped here to break up the trip from Shenandoah to South Carolina. It is a good spot and I wished we stayed a few extra days. The campsites near the river are nice. You can stroll 50 meters from your campsite and sit on the lovely riverfront. It is a nice campground with all amenities in good working order. A nice games room for the kids. New Bern is an interesting town and there is enough to do in the area to spend a 4 or 5 days. It is a charming southern town, similar, but much smaller than Charlotte SC. There are quite a few good restaurants.

This was a nice spot. September is shrimp season so everyone else was here to catch shrimp. That made it interesting but a bit noisy. Fisher folk are focused on fishing and when they get back to camp they don't care too much about the nice views, etc. They are friendly folks but like to shine their lights bright and turn the country music up loud. The toilets and showers were clean. It is a comfortable 20 - 30 minute drive to Charleston. There is plenty to do in the area and it is well worth a visit. In September the mosquitoes were a bit fierce so come prepared. Definitely a nice spot that will give you a good base to explore the low country.
