Philadelphia and New Orleans are great sandwich towns, but in terms of rich history and sheer diversity, it's hard to rival New York — in sandwiches, or anything. In NYC, sandwich trends are over before the rest of us have even tasted them, and there's always something new to try.
When New York Magazine's 51 best sandwiches issue arrives in the mail (with 50 more online), I see it as a scouting mission. What trends ruling the New York sandwich scene can we expect to see next? Here are five to watch from NY Mag's latest list.
- Banh mi. I love $3 Vietnamese sandwiches, and in New York, the street food is everywhere and getting a gourmet spin. In addition to traditional standouts, New York rewards the smoked pork shoulder banh mi from the Fatty 'Cue and the Sloppy Bao from Baoguette (pictured), featuring curried ground beef and jalapeño.
- Cross-cultural combos. I've been saying for years that sandwiches are the real melting pot. Like the BBQ banh mi, NYC sandwiches increasingly combine American classics with exotic ingredients. I'm drooling over the Super Heebster from Russ & Daughters — a bagel sandwich with wasabi-infused flying fish roe — and the Mumbai grilled sandwich from Mumbai Xpress.
- Porchetta. The pork trend is palpable on NY Mag's list, which features lots of this Italian-style roasted pork. From the porchetta calabrese at Salumeria Rosi to the namesake sandwich at Porchetta, the photos alone make my mouth water.
- Biscuits. Why aren't more breakfast sandwiches served on biscuits? If I'm lucky, their preponderance in New York signals a growing trend. I'd love to wake up to a Kentucky ham biscuit at Egg or the locally sourced tower of yumminess from Prime Meats.
- Cubanos. Cuban sandwiches in NYC are the blissful benefit of a large Cuban population. The boroughs offer both old-school Cubanos and high-end interpretations like the roast pork at Colicchio & Sons. I dream of a day when this most excellent of flavor combos becomes an American staple.
Other items of note from New York Magazine's list:
- The sustainable sandwich trend is also surfacing there, though not as much on the West Coast.
- I love that the top 15 features both good ol' Katz's pastrami and the nouveau-deli smoked meat from Mile End.
- The Fort Defiance muffuletta looks like the real deal.
- I'm curious about but sort of scared of uni on a sandwich.
- And finally, why have I never heard of panelle, which is apparently some type of Sicilian potato and chickpea croquette? It shows up on the list multiple times! I'm adding it to my list next time I'm in New York.

how long can i keep a queen in a small shipping box? right now i have it between frames in top of a honey super on a very strong hive corks in the holes of box so she cant get out.
how long can i keep a queen in a small shipping box? right now i have it between frames in top of a honey super on a very strong hive corks in the holes of box so she cant get out.
Does she have attendants, if so they will eat some of the candy and therefore it won't last as long. If you are talking 2-3 days lay her in a cool dry, sorta dark area in the house and give her or them some water every day. I like to cut a q- tip, soak it in water and lay it on the cage. The old 3 hole screened cage is, in my opinion better for this than the plastic jzbz cage but will still work. While she is in the hive they may or may not attend to her, depending on her acceptance. They must have access to her while in the hive so they can feed her thru the screen. I'm no expert, but I haven't told you anything wrong. Good luck
So much to learn, so little time!!
yes she has a few bees with her! its a little wood box and yes they can get too feed her! it would be a great way to keep a spare!
If she is in a queenright hive they will try to kill her. They will probably not feed her. You can't bank queens in a queenright hive. The pheromones are differient. I would bet if you take her out there will be a ball of bees on the cage trying to kill her. Hope they haven't succeded. Sorry not what you wanted to hear but a fact.
So much to learn, so little time!!
valley man you have a point! i just ran half mile with flashlight in hand the queen seems fine its alive! put her in 7 days ago. has any one else ever tried this? not a good idea to check bees with a flashlight!
A nuc makes a great life support system for a queen. You can even use her and let the nuc make a new queen. Very handy to have around.
When you stop learning you're dead.

Super Single Bedding - 3ft 6" x 6ft 3" (107 x 191cm)
A Super Single Bed measures 3ft 6in wide x 6ft 3in long / 107 x 191cm (42 x 75"). It is a very popular size and not often known by any other names, but sometimes referred to as a Petite Double. Below is a full list of our Super Single bed bedding, but please check the length of your super single because we also sell the Long Super Single bed 3ft 6" x 6ft 6" (107 x 200cm) quite equally and there doesn't seem to be a "standard" as such with this bed.
We have in stock 107 x 191cm fitted sheets, 107 x 191cm base valances, 107x 191cm mattress protectors and 107x 191cm waterproof mattress protectors available in this size.
If you require other bed linen products for your Super Single bed 3ft 6" x 6ft 3" it is a little too wide to use Standard UK Single bed duvets, duvet covers and flat sheets, but we do stock a specialist oversized single duvet and duvet covers which works well on this bed. Also the flat sheets we have for the 4ft wide bed work well as a top sheet on the Super Single.
Super Single Bed
Polycotton Bedding
Non Iron Polycotton Bedding is perfect for those who want sheets that are easy to care for and require little or no ironing. Made from the finest 50% Combed Cotton and 50% polyester, the sheets are smooth and durable. This durable bedding is woven to a quality that gives years of lasting use.
You can wash it as often as you wish and it just gets softer, tumble dry it and it won't shrink. It will dry fast and is non iron and if all that wasn't enough it comes with a 5 year guarantee.
Polycotton Bed Valances
Easy care polycotton box pleated base valances are made of a non iron 50% Cotton / 50% Polyester 150 thread count and have a 16" (41cm) pleat drop.
These base valances go under the mattress and down to the floor covering the base of the bed.
100% Cotton Percale Bedding
This is our luxury hotel quality classic crisp 200 thread count 100% Cotton Percale.
Cotton Percale has the best of both worlds, durable yet smooth and we proudly use it to make most of our specialist size bed sheets here in the UK.
100% Egyptian Cotton Percale 400 Thread Count
Luxuriously high quality, smooth and crisp, genuine single ply 400 threads per square inch pure Egyptian Cotton Percale with a smooth sateen finish.
The thread count is the number of threads in a square inch of fabric. This is achieved by measuring the number of threads in the Warp (length) and the weft (width). The most popular cottons will be around 150, while good quality sheets will start at 180. Anything 200 and above brings you into the luxury range.
100% Cotton Jersey
Our 100% combed cotton jersey fitted sheets are specifically designed for memory foam products and electric / adjustable beds.
Cotton Jersey is a soft jersey knit which moves with the contours of your body and the mattress. Like memory foam, knitted fabric will retain its shape after being stretched making it more suitable for memory foam products than typical woven bedlinen.
Mattress Protectors
All of our mattress protectors will help protect and prolong the life of your mattress.
Mattress protectors are a great way of softening a mattress surface, making them more comfortable to sleep on.
Mattress protectors are a great practical way to protect your mattress and keep them feeling fresh and clean.
Luxury Mattress Protection
Waterproof Mattress Protectors
All our waterproof protectors are hard to tell from the sleeping surface that they are waterproof.
Gone are the days of sleeping on a crisp packet or it becoming hot in bed. The terry towelling protectors have a polyurethane back which is completely waterproof, but soft breathable and rustle free.
The quilted waterproof have a PVC back, but the quilting makes it difficult to tell the PVC is there.
Bolster Pillows
Bolster pillows are long pillows that run the full width of the bed and offer a luxurious way to support your head while sleeping.
Where a bolster pillow excels, is that because it runs the full width of you bed, it offers uniform comfort as you move around in your sleep.
The nights when your head dips in between the gaps of traditional pillows will be a distant memory. Some customers prefer bolster pillows simply because they look good.
Bolster Pillowcases
Bolster Pillowcases are the same depth (top to bottom) as a standard size pillowcase 20" (50cm) and then just longer depending on the width of your bed.
Bolsters and Bolster Pillowcases have become narrower over the years, but we have ours made full pillow size.

Everything went extremely well he also shipped out the navi disc before he received the payment. Just wanted to chime about this so if any other member decided to make any type of transaction with david I can vouch he is a great and trustworthy seller. I posted this in the Northeast because he lives in that region. So again thanx David for the quick transaction.

text: Last week, Ontario NDP leader Andrea Horwath asked Ontarians to have their say on the budget. People in Queen's Park murmured that this was a schtick or a stall tactic. It's unfortunate that this was the knee-jerk reaction. The fact is that while Ontarians have lots of issues with the budget, one thing that was almost unanimous was that people were really happy that someone asked them what they think.

Town Square
Please vote YES on Prop 2 re food animals
Original post made by dogfather, Danville, on Oct 26, 2008
This board bears recent witness to the controversies that beset our town this election season. That said, I hope we can generally agree on Proposition 2, which requires food producers by the year 2015 to provide enclosures that allow agricultural animals to stand, turn around and extend their limbs. It is authored and advocated by the Humane Society, a mainstream animal advocacy group very distinct from "animal crazies."
I am anticipating that the food industry will soon invite us to gorge on a diet of scare tactics about skyrocketing prices, Mexican and Chinese eggs flooding our markets, and diseases caused by more healthful confinement (even Chicken Little wouldn't buy THAT one). They will also argue that people come first.
Please note that the price effect will be negligible on veal and ham, which are not produced in large quantities in CA now (the measure would set a general standard for future operations), and only pennies per dozen eggs. And the requirements don't kick-in 'til 2015!
Further, no Mexican or Chinese eggs come here now (or Canadian eggs for that matter, but we don't much fear those crafty Canadians), nor will they in the future. A significant share of the egg market comes from other states, and will continue to do so. (For those eggs, you need to look for a label like "cage-free" on the carton).
I won't dignify the silly disease claim, but the "people first" claim does go to the heart of the matter. Ag and food animals vastly outnumber our pet population – like hundreds-to-1 at any given time. We wouldn't dream of cruelly confining our pets, and even though most ag animals are ultimately destined for digestion, our humanity suffers when they suffer needlessly.
Scripturalists are aware of the Bible's verse that grants mankind "dominion over the animals." But since before the first anti-cruelty laws were passed in England in the 1820s, society has grafted a stewardship responsibility onto that "dominion" privilege. The lives of these animals matter, as do their deaths – they should be treated humanely, and Prop 2 is a small gesture in that direction.
Finally, we really are what we eat, and our food's healthfulness does relate to the health of the animals who comprise a significant part of our diets. The ag industry today is where many others were fifty years ago – all economies of scale, and insufficient concern for "quality." Its grim processes are mostly hidden from view (read the bestseller "Omnivore's Dilemma" for a dispassionate description). This Prop is a step toward healthier food from healthier animals. And that's good for them AND us.
A famous philosopher (Bentham) once wrote "the question is not whether they can think, or talk – but whether they suffer." Ag animals are intensely vulnerable and depend on us to relieve their suffering.
Please vote YES on Prop 2. Thanks!

As usual, Opus gets it right: Web Link
Please vote YES on Prop 2!
a resident of Danville
on Oct 28, 2008 at 8:23 am
You guys keep pushing my topic down the page, so I'll just add occasional tidbits to ensure that my message doesn't get lost. ;-)
Here's a list of groups that endorse Prop 2:
The Humane Society of the US
California Veterinary Medical Assn
Center for Food Safety
Union of Concerned Scientists
Sierra Club
Consumer Federation of America
California Democratic Party
California Council of Churches
Pretty credible group, eh? Somebody for everyone, methinks.
I also saw yesterday that Costco sells "cage-free eggs" in a cardboard carton in the Danville store. Maybe they always have, but this was the first time I noticed it. Here's a chance to support farmers who are treating their hens better than most do.
I also saw an anti-prop 2 ad on tv last evening -- all-fear, all-the-time, pretty much as expected, and answered above.
Please vote YES on Prop 2.

on Oct 31, 2008 at 11:35 am
Please Don't forget to "be kind to our fine feathered friends" on Tuesday.
Prop 2 -- it's a square deal for the animals who bring you a square meal.
a resident of Danville
on Nov 5, 2008 at 8:11 am
Thanks, Danville! This was a remarkable win, with margins of 63/37 statewide, and 67/33! in Contra Costa.
Animal-related legislation has historically had a tough-go in Sacramento; just maybe, this victory will signal to the legislature that "dumb brutes" have a constituency hereabouts.
Remarkably, in no other segment of the economy has price, rather than quality, been such an important determinant of buying decisions. And those choices determine what we feed to ourselves and our families!
Just maybe, that's about to change?
Thanks again for supporting this Prop in overwhelming fashion!

Wilmington Businesses Re-Open
10/14/11 7:34AM By Nancy Eve Cohen
| Download MP3
(Host) After Tropical Storm Irene raged through Wilmington in August most of the downtown businesses closed.
VPR's Nancy Cohen reports about a quarter have re-opened. Others are scrambling to get ready for the ski season.
(Cohen) Imagine a river rising so high it leaps over bridges. That's what the Deerfield did in Wilmington nearly seven weeks ago. Lisa Sullivan watched that day from a hillside. She saw Dot's Restaurant take one of the biggest hits
(Sullivan) "The water just kept getting higher and higher. We didn't know that Dot's was going to stand. We were waiting for the moment when Dot's would be carried down the river."
(Cohen) Dot's, which is famous for home-cooked breakfasts does still stand. But Irene ripped the back off the building and it's not open for business. Just down the road, other businesses, like Lisa Sullivan's Bartleby's Bookstore, are in a hurry to rebuild
(Sullivan) "We're fast and furious. And we feel strongly that we need to be open again in November. Our biggest sales month is December and we can't lose it. So time is our biggest enemy at this point and we are running up against it."
(Cohen) Sullivan has future floods in mind: Her furnace is being moved upstairs. New windows are built higher.
Sullivan is also the President of the Mount Snow Valley Chamber of Commerce. She gives me a tour of the battered streets.
(Sullivan) "We used to have sidewalks all throughout town and now there are spots like here where the side walks need to be replaced"
(Cole) "That's our open sign We're open today! "
(Cohen) Elizabeth Cole of Quaigh Design, which sells jewelry and pottery, says it's a good feeling to be open again
Besides Quaigh, ten out of the 40 businesses that were closed have reopened. Including the Anchor Seafood House and Grille where Adam Lemire is lunching on baked stuffed clams. He says Wilmington was like a ghost town.
(Lemire) "In the last few weeks I've been seeing more and more people out just walking. You know even though a lot of the businesses aren't open its not as depressing as it was. It's pretty good now.".
(Cohen) But the sounds of demolition and recovery fill the air. Jeremy Werner is ripping down a ceiling at a downtown law office right on the Deerfield River.(Dugan) "We had to take down all the walls. There was four layers of floor we had to dig up. There's glass everywhere from the water breaking the windows. It's pretty Cloroxy and Pine-soley smelling in here."
(Cohen) Nearby Eileen Ranslow's showroom, which was once filled with carpet and tile samples, has been scrubbed and rescrubbed.
(Ranslow) "It's just pasty mud and it clings to everything."(Cohen) Ranslow started this store 41 years ago. She's had tough times. But nothing like this.
(Ranslow) "You know for the most part I'm fine until I start really getting into, you know, the future and are we all going to make it?"
(Cohen) Unlike homeowners, business owners like Ranslow can't get grants from FEMA. If they need money borrowing is the only choice
(Ranslow) '"Everybody in town has to take a long, hard soul-searching to even continue. You know it's very difficult to come through the economy the way it is now and it has been for the last two and a half three years and have to deal with taking out mortgages. I have no mortgages right now, but I'm going to have one."
(Cohen) Ranslow has a big sign in her window thanking volunteers for help cleaning up. It says "In Vermont we're all neighbors." That sentiment resonates with visitors from other states. Jim Mcinnis from New York is going to tell his friends to visit Wilmington"
(Mcinnis) "It's not gone. It's just bruised a little bit, but it ain't broken."
(Cohen) For VPR News I'm Nancy Cohen.
(Host Outro) Irene flood recovery coverage is supported in part by the VPR Journalism Fund.

If a business does not give you all the info by yourself personal legal rights, or if they don't describe that you can do things for yourself free of charge, they are most likely an irresponsible business. Chances are they aren't going to charge you interest, and your credit report will not be influenced if you make a late or smaller sized payment. By calling credit bureaus, creating your own corrections, budgeting and consolidating your financial obligations can enhance your own rating. The costs differ depending upon the business you utilize.
There is an act that is composed in the law called the +Fair Credit Reporting Act+ that can prove to be rather valuable when it concerns bankruptcy credit repair services. They played all their bills in time and they settled all the exceptional quantities on their charge card. Aside from showing accountable behavior in terms of payments, lenders likewise look at just how much of your credit line you actually consume. Consuming just around 30 % of your credit line on a monthly basis represents to them that you are a disciplined customer and presents low threats for them in terms of loan payments. Having any type of documents, closure of account papers, and products that are similar in nature may prove to be advantageous when it concerns this certain situation.
The boosted disclosure provides you the chance to recover your credit, raise your rating, and maybe qualify for reduction charges in the foreseeable future. All you have to do is call your creditor and offer to pay the amount that you owe, so that they may delete negative products on your credit report. These are credit repair service agencies reviews reasonably priced and are definitely not out to control consumers who are desperate to repair their certain people's credit reports. If you've endured by method of a disastrous financial crises and wound up sending for chapter 7 or 13 personal bankruptcy relief, you are not credit repair service baton rouge on your own.
Your individual FICO rating is dependent the info listed as part of your credit report, which sports a history of your last financial obligations and payments. Since it is do-it-yourself, you can work at your own time and speed. You never ever understand while you may need the certain files since assistance.
Since it is computer-generated, you would get more precise results with a software application, with a much less chance for error. These Credit repair service keys contribute to raise your credit report on your Credit report scale. The very first thing that you ought to do is get a copy of your credit report from the concerned agencies like Experian, TransUnion, and Equifax.

The WNC, organized by the Global Science and Technology Forum (GSTF), aims to explore advances in nursing practice, management and education in relation to health disparities as well as a breadth of other topics. Through networking and sharing, WNC will provide an opportunity for nursing practitioners and educators to exchange research evidence, models of best practice and innovative ideas.
Zidek and West developed a constructivist theory designed simulation activity whereby three student groups created a complex client simulation scenario in the community that improved student critical thinking, confidence, clinical judgment, and performance. Their project is titled, "An Innovative Approach to Complex Client Simulation in Community Health."
Zidek, West, and Crytzer did a research study with the senior-level community health students entitled, "Effectiveness of ReadyPA Emergency Preparedness Program in Rural Western Pennsylvania in the Event of a Prolonged Power Failure."

States at times take intelligence inputs lightly: Shinde
He said while the government was seriously working towards tackling terrorism, Opposition's support was crucial in controlling the menace.
New Delhi/Hyderabad: Speaking in the Rajya Sabha a day after two blasts killed 16 people in Hyderabad, Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde said that the state governments sometimes take intelligence inputs in a lighter vein. He also said that while the government was seriously working towards tackling terrorism in the country, Opposition's support was crucial in controlling the menace.
Explaining why he didn't reach Hyderabad soon after the blasts took place, Shinde said it was for the security reasons that he decided not to leave immediately. "If VIPs go there (blast sites) then police have to concentrate on securing them which is not right. VIPs should not be visiting the spot of such incidents, police should be given freedom to carry out investigation and gather evidences," he said in Parliament.
The Home Minister said that the government was ready to to go ahead with the creation of proposed apex counter-terror organisation - National Counter Terrorism Centre - but many state governments had opposed the proposal. "We are still ready to go ahead with the NCTC with amendments so that states' rights are not ingressed, but we need to sit down and discuss on NCTC," he said.
Meanwhile, sources on Friday said that Hyderabad was alerted specifically by the Intelligence Bureau and the Union Home Minister about possible terror strikes. A total of three advisories were issued for Hyderabad - two by the Intelligence Bureau and one by the Home Ministry. A general alert to all state police chiefs was also sent last week about impending Indian Mujahideen/ Lashkar-e-Toiba activities.
The alert was repeated to Hyderabad, Bangalore, Hubli, Coimbatore on February 20 and the police forces of the cities had been directed to be on alert about a possible terror strike, sources add. Union Home Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, who visited the blast site in Hyderabad's Dilsukh Nagar on Friday morning, said, "A general alert had been sounded for all the states, for the whole country, and not a specific area."
Meanwile, the FIR in connection with the twin blasts has been filed. Investigators are waiting for forensic evidence and preliminary investigation suggest that ammonia and timer devices were used to carry out the blasts. National Investigation Agency (NIA) and elite anti-terror commando force Octopus (Organisation For Counter Terrorist Operations) teams are at the blast sites and trying to get hold of all evidence.
Initial probe suggest the modus operandi matches that of the Indian Mujahideen. A Delhi Police special cell team is headed to Hyderabad with information from suspected Indian Mujahideen operative Maqbool who was arrested in October 2012.
The Union Home Ministry has sent five companies of Rapid Action Force (RAF) and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) have been sent to Hyderabad to assist the state police maintain law and order.
Two powerful near simultaneous blasts had ripped through a crowded area close to a cluster of bus stands in Dilsukhnagar area on Thursday. The blasts triggered by Improvised Explosive Devices IED) tied to two bicycles took place at two sites 100 metres apart outside a roadside eatery near Konark and Venkatadiri theatres in the area located on the Hyderabad-Vijaywada national highway in Cyberabad police limits.
DGP Reddy had said it was "definitely the handiwork of a terrorist network" and IEDs were used in the attack. The Union Home Secretary had said the near two simultaneous very powerful blasts indicate that it was a "terror attack".
The Dilsukh Nagar area is thickly populated and traffic jams are routine in the evenings with officegoers and students rushing home. Large numbers of people wait at the numerous bus shelters, eateries and shops in the area.

Sep 4, 2010 at 12:12 am #1262953
hi here i am now in stans, close to interlaken, i was on the via alpina from vaduz,on the 26 august snow falls all over 1500 meters in most parts of switzerland, i succeeded hiking over klausenpass at 2000 meter, but at altdorf trying to pass over the surenenpass at 2200 meters an avalanche had fallen down on the small pass, and made it pretty much impossible to cross over, so i walked around the lakes of luzern on the via jacobi, so the question
i am thinking of getting on the via alpina again at meiringen, now it has been clear and sunny weather since 30th of august, and between 26-30th rain or snow almost all the time.
i was hoping for a summertrip in the alps, maybe little bit to hopeful, so my equipment is
shoes montrail namche http://www.besportier.com/archives/montrail-namche-fastpacking-boot-most-supportive-ultralight-boot.jpg
one gossamer gear hiking pole the lighest non foladable
one pair of thick woolsocks, and one thin pair of merinosocks.
the hexamid tarptent
wm highlite
150/gram smartwool pants and top
one golite t-shirt
one balaclava
dropped my gloves
i have marmot mica, and good rainpants
but i have to have a new rainjacket, because somehow it is not at all good
the crux halotop bought it before i found information about it, it pretty much sucks.
i think it doesnt goes colder than 0c in the night, atleast if i stay under 1500 meter which should be possible if i dont get stuck on a mountain.
the road takes me to grindewald where they have europes only montbell store, so i am thinking of bying a rainjacket and i need advice here, and thinking of bying the Breeze Dry-Tec.U.L. Sleeping Bag Cover.
from meiringen to grindewald there is a car road so if the road seems to dangerous i will walk on it, and once at grindewald i have to decide if i walk the via alpina or walk back to via jacobi at interlaken. after grindewald it rises to around 2800 meter, and is not much civilization, but i could sleep in the hostels around the path.
so much apriate some replies.
what would you do?
here is the map of both the via alpina and via jakobi,
here is info about the walks
sorry for the much confused and not so well written post, i have very little time, so it became like this.
i hope for some response
and i very grateful

Hi Jens
We did the Via Alpina right thru Switzerland in 2009. Enjoyed it greatly, although there was plenty of hard work involved.
Your gear sounds good enough to me.
I would certainly buy new gloves!
Instead of buying an expensive heavy rain-jacket I suggest you look at some of the *light, cheap* ponchos most everyone over there wears. They work fine.
> but i could sleep in the hostels around the path.
We used our tent some nights and hostels other nights. Not a problem – but accommodation costs more of course. However – they have good meals!
> from meiringen to grindewald there is a car road
True, but the walking track is so much better! We took the cog railway up the Falls – great views and worth it.
I see no reason to stop travelling! Keep going, camp when convenient and Refuge other nights.

"the road takes me to grindewald where they have europes only montbell store, so i am thinking of bying a rainjacket and i need advice here, and thinking of bying the Breeze Dry-Tec.U.L. Sleeping Bag Cover."
I have two early-model MB Torrent Fliers: they're OK but in really heavy rain in England I got soaked, mostly due to the poorly sealed mesh-backed pockets which were also in the way of a pack hipbelt. Later models had the pockets on the chest only and were not mesh-backed, so see what you think. I have a theory though that gear produced in rainy countries will work better than gear produced in drier countries: in that respect I really like my RAB eVent jacket, which also has its pockets in the right places. In theory Breeze Dry-Tec is as breathable as eVent but I've had no direct experience with it – Miguel may be able to chime-in.Sep 4, 2010 at 10:36 pm #1643111

In theory Breeze Dry-Tec is as breathable as eVent but I've had no direct experience with it – Miguel may be able to chime-in.
Back in 2007 I did the Tour du Mont Blanc. I wore a Montane Superfly eVent jacket on the rainy days. I had always thought eVent was superior, but on my trip the Superfly got completely soaked on the outside and the wetting out of the outer fabric caused me to go almost become hyperthermic in the cold. My teeth were chattering badly and my lips turned blue. I immediately stripped it off and just wore my Montane Litespeed wind jacket with two base layers underneath, and in the rain, all day I was warm and dry. I never used the Superfly again after that on that trip.
That hadn't been the first time that had happened with the Superfly. When I first bought the jacket I again came close to getting hyperthermia and had to change to my wind jacket to regain warmth and protection from the wet. I've since checked and rechecked, carefully washed it and used both Nikwax Washin-In Direct and Grangers, then did the strong shower test, but the problem always recurs. I'm not sure if the eVent layer itself is wetting through, but my one experience with an eVent jacket has made me very wary about spending more money to find out whether it's worth using it. It could very well be the outer fabric which is the culprit, but I don't have the cash to casually try out another jacket. That Superfly was very expensive!
I've used Breeze Dry-Tec quite a lot and it works very well for me. I tend to not mind getting a little wet (soaked is different) as long as I'm warm. I think Mont Bell's rating of the rain jackets is very accurate, mainly because, with Japan having so much torrential rain, it is important for Mont Bell to advertise the correct ability of their rainwear. That being said, Japan is often so hot and humid in many cases wearing a rain suit, like those made with Gore-tex, can be a very hot and wet-from-the-inside experience.
I use the Breeze Dry-Tec U.L. Sleeping Bag Cover all the time now. I find it works better than my BPL Vapr Bivy because it is waterproof, breathes very well, and doesn't have a silnylon floor, which tends to roll up on top of me while sleeping (unless I stake it down) and the condensation from my breath soaks my sleeping bag and clothes. So far I've had zero condensation problems with the Breeze Dry-Tec bivy. I'd recommend getting the "long and wide" version to accommodate your sleeping pad inside, or if you are taller.
I'd say Breeze Dry-Tec is perfectly adequate for the Alps. I did perfectly well for one week after the incident on the Tour du Mont Blanc with just a wind jacket and warm base layer, even in the rain, though I would like to have had my Mont Bell Versalite Jacket with me for a little extra protection. I also experienced two days of getting snowed off the trail, but the following day the snows retreated and it was easy walking.
Even though I am used to climbing in the Japan Alps (which are much rougher than the popular walking routes in the Alps in Europe), I was mentally unprepared for the much higher peaks and the "hugeness" of the weather. It felt much colder and darker than the mountains in Japan. And that, traveling alone in a foreign country and unfamiliar mountains, was daunting enough sometimes to make me doubt my ability to finish the walk. But as I took each new step and woke to another day of walking and got familiar with things there, the fear gradually subsided and I just took conditions as they presented themselves.
Andrew Skurka, in a reply to an email I asked him about preparing for the long walks he goes on, once gave me this fantastic advice: "Don't pack your fears". It really makes you think about what you are bringing, but also how you see that place you are attempting to walk.Sep 5, 2010 at 7:15 am #1643141

Have to say, having been riding to work in the winter rain for the last few months (hallelujah), I've been packing my Paramo Velez and my Montane Lightspeed: the Paramo definitely keeps me drier than any of my goretex (I got soaked) or the eVent. The Lightspeed is for the warmer, non-rainy ride home. I also wore the Paramo and Lightspeed on a 120 k day ride last week.Sep 5, 2010 at 3:38 pm #1643231
hello and thanks.
i will buy the bivy because it rains like hell, last time it rained it rained from i set up the tent at 19.00 till 11.00 in the morning, i stayed dry but i dident sleep because i was little to affraid i was gonna get wet.
the weather has been quite extreme here, i have heard about 7 people who have died close to where i have walked only the last couple of weeks. its been raining or snowing heavily for 10 hours in a row, and maybe 15 hours of day or more it has been snowing or raining.
and when i tried to pass the sun had been lying on for one day so the the pass when one meter high full of snow all wet and slippery, so it was very dangerous.
now its been good weather, but on tuesday and wendesday and maybe thursday it will rain and snow like before. like 15 hours a day.
i have walked much times before, from sweden to spain for a half year and i never had worse weather than his two weeks ive been out now, first snowing raining like crazy than super hot so everything becomes avanlanches and icy and melting.
thanks for all advice. i walked to gridewald today on the path and it was tryly beatiiful, especially a pyramid shaped green mountain. i have some nice picturers but i can not upload now. i dont know how to do with rainjacket. i think a poncho is not so nice in rainstorm when it rains for more than 10 hours in a row.
even thou the weather is really bad, i am enyojing the trip so much. i will take it easy and safe. i have much time. so i will see what happens.Sep 5, 2010 at 4:12 pm #1643238

Arapiles, I didn't mention Paramo only because I thought it might be hard to get in Switzerland and because Jens was asking about eVent and Breeze Dry-Tech, but I agree with you, there is nothing more breathable or comfortable in the rain out there. And the new light series are reasonably light enough to be used all year. I would always recommend Paramo over any other system, except for the weight, if you intend to go really light.
Jens, have you looked at the Altus Poncho? It is like a poncho, but also like a regular rain jacket, called a cagoule. Here is a review.Sep 5, 2010 at 10:52 pm #1643301
hello, i feel little similar to you miguel about travelling in the alps. it is also my first time here in the alps. and i also feel its so huge, and the weather is changing so fast. it was very comforting to read how you procceded in the alps. and i think i will try to do the same to wait out the snow if it gets to hard to cross.
i would certainly consider the altus poncho, but i have no idea where to find it, if i dont find it here in grindewald, i will have to buy another one, mabe it will be enough with a windjacket and my marmot mica, i think it would keep me dry enough.
sounds awful with your experience with close to hypothermia. i know how it feels. after being up alone on central massive, the zipper of my sleepingbag broke and it was -15 c in the night, my sleepingbag was turning into ice. and i really had no tools to proberly close it.Sep 5, 2010 at 11:20 pm #1643305
roger, i just wonder, how would you say the path goes on from grindewald. im just little worried about the 2778m-high Hohtürli, that being mountains has been covered in snow at 1500 meters, and the snow at 2500 meters has not been melted at all, or atleast there is plenty of it,and this being said its been almost 30c in the sun now for maybe 5 days. and now its going to be two or three days of what they call dauerregen, torrential rain.
since it is already september and i still have to go for about 150 kilometers its very hard to predict how the weather is going to be. so i must say i am little worried, but i can always go back if i feel its too dangerous.
thanks jensSep 6, 2010 at 3:36 am #1643312

Hi Jens
Many of the high mountain Refuges stay open till about October. The lower ones are often occupied much longer. That means there should be Guardians in them for at least a few weeks yet. When you get to one of the Refuges, STOP and ASK the Guardian about the safety of the route ahead. They know the area, they know the conditions, and they will give you advice.
Herewith a VERY condensed summary. It ignores the physical problem of climbing the height of the next pass … but we managed.
Grindelwald – Kleine Scheidegg- Lautebrunnen – easy enough.
Laut – Rotstock Hut: we stopped early at the Rotstock Hut. A long climb.
Rotstock – Sefinenfurke – Griesalp – Ober Bundalp – Easy upwards, then new 'steps' and cable going down over scree. Pass is usually OK – check with Guardian at Rotstock. Do not stay at Griesalp; don't even eat there! It is an extremely expensive bus-served tourist trap. Ober B is fine.
OB – Hohturli – Kandersteg – the climb is a bit steep! Oh yes! If it is open (check with Guardian) then it should be OK. Nice dairy with milkshakes on the way down. Oeschinensee looked like a tourist trap as well. Kandestersteg is OK.
K – Bunderchrinde – Adelboden – Pass looks difficult, but isn't. Adelboden is a hideously expensive tourist centre – camp somewhere.
A – Hahnenmoos pass – Lenk – no problems, grass.
More info later on if you want.
Look, go for it, but do check with the Guardians, and you can always have a rest day somewhere. You won't be alone!
Good luck
CheersSep 8, 2010 at 12:10 pm #1643949
hi roger, thanks i had a look at what you wrote in lautebrunnen. and now i am in kandersteg at the scout center. i had quite nice weather so what i feared a bit was one of the more easier days of the trip. the snow had melted, was a bit slippery.
it was nice of you to offer to write more, but now it feels much easier. so i think i can manage now, i feel safe and happy buying the bivy and a windjacket.

brake tech question
Just converted a 57 Olds to 4 wheel disk. Used kit for the front, chev calipers, fabed bracket for rear, t-bird caliper, and used 90's caprice 4 whl disk mast. cyl.
When trying to bleed the brakes, I can only get the rear portion of the mast. cyl to work. It seems to bench bleed fine, but when installed in the car the front portion of the mast. cyl goes dead. I thought the mast. might be defective, so I sent it back and got a different one. Same problem. There is no combination valve in the car. Could that be a problem? Is my master shot? It's all I can come up with, but I'm not a pro.
I am using that same MC on my s10 with 12" b-body brakes up front and 2000 blazer discs in rear. I have no combo valve but I do have a Wilwood adj. prop. valve. It works better then just about any vehicle I have ever driven.
How do you have the MC plumbed?
The front port on the MC goes to the rear brakes and the rear goes to the front brakes.
That was how I hooked it up. The front brakes worked great, but I couldn't get the back to bleed. I swapped the lines on the master cyl. to see if there was anything wrong on the rear,{plugged line,etc.} and then the rear worked fine and the front brakes wouldn't bleed.
I'm sure this link is way more simplistic than what you already know, but it might give you some clue as to what is going on. Activate the arrows to show what happens when there is a leak in one of the two sections of the brake system.
My first thought was that you might have a missing or broken spring between the primary and secondary pistons of the MC, but since you swapped in a brand new one my next guess would be a leak in the line between the MC and the combo valve.
Always learning...and sharing what I've learned.
To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.
Caprice is probably a Quick Take Up master, which can be finicky.
Bleeding directions on them usually say to use single stroke method, and wait 15 seconds between each slow pump of the pedal.
I have had luck just bench bleeding them, and then gravity bleed for a while, close it all up and it's done... because if I touch the pedal to bleed according to instructions, or otherwise, the rear brakes suck in air somehow, more on some models than others (trucks).
I've also had luck syringe bleeding or pressure bleeding brakes with those masters.
Rebled the brakes with a mighty vac, and set up the pedal for a bit of additional travel[ It was only moving the pushrod 3/4 of an inch] Don't know which one fixed it, but the brakes work great.

When will the bad news end?
Page Tools
John Stewart, ceo of the National Australia Bank.
Picture:Phil Carrick AFR
Mum-and-dad shareholders in Australia's largest financial institution, National Australia Bank, must be wondering when the bad news will end - those who are still investors in the bank after last week, that is.
NAB's second profit downgrade in three months on Wednesday resulted in the stock dumping 7 per cent on the day, its biggest one-day fall since 2001 when the company rocked the market with surprise news of a $3 billion loss at its US HomeSide mortgage business.
Some 21,344 trades were made in NAB shares on Wednesday, worth $1.97 billion. By Thursday, many more small shareholders had caught up with the latest misfortune and a further 18,810 trades were made in trade worth $1.29 billion.
These are huge trading numbers, although anyone who has kept an eye on the business pages over the past six months will know why some of these NAB investors will have finally said "enough!"
Even the timing of the latest profit warning was unfortunate.
News that group profits would be down about 16 per cent for the year to end-September came a week after NAB set its dividend reinvestment price. If it had delivered the bad news a week earlier, shareholders would have at least received their dividend at the usual discount to market.
Instead, they paid for stock out of their dividend entitlement at $28.99 a share. That's a 2.3 per cent premium to Friday's close of $28.34 (which was down 8.1 per cent for the week). Shareholders would have done better taking their dividend in cash.
These things rankle, even though new chief John Stewart said he did not hear of the profit shortfall until early last week.
Still, for the many shareholders left in NAB this is water under the bridge. The stock has taken a hit, profit expectations have been trimmed. So is it finally business as usual?
Unfortunately, company analysts are not sure about that either. CommSec banking analyst Vanessa Beenders says there are still some big outstanding issues that could rock NAB shares and she expects the stock will underperform for the next year to 18 months.
"There is potentially more bad news to come from the strategic review," she said. "There's what to do with the capitalised software, what to do with the provisioning of bad debts, and what to do with the UK business."
So should small shareholders hang around?
"If you are already in the stock and can afford to sit it out for the next 12 to 18 months, we expect profit growth will then begin to return," Ms Beenders said.
"It depends on your time horizon. But it's our least preferred major bank - we believe that for someone looking to invest in the banking sector, there are better options elsewhere."
CommSec has a valuation of $28.30 on NAB shares and rates the stock a hold on the short term and underperform for six months and beyond. Its preferred major bank is Westpac, then ANZ (CommSec makes no recommendation relating to its parent Commonwealth Bank).
But Ms Beenders' preferred banking stocks are both outside the big four. She goes for St George and Bank of Queensland, rating them both a buy on the short term and outperform for six months and beyond.
Deutsche Bank banking analyst Ross Brown also believes NAB is the least attractive of the majors. He says that, despite the slump in its shares last week, the stock is still the most expensive of the big four.
"NAB's earnings have come down 27 per cent over the last 12 months, but its shares have not fallen by that amount, so it has been re-rated as it has gone along," he said. "If you want to stay invested in the banking sector, there is far better value in ANZ and Westpac."

Hi, I want to run a regression with fixed effect. In my dataset I have two dimensions, countries and industries (but I don't have time). I have tried to run the fixed effect regressions both with xtreg...,fe and with a simple OLS with all dummies (both for countries and for industries). The results are clearly different. What is the more correct regression in this case? If I use the panel xtreg command I have to choose which variable has to be tis and which iis. What is the difference in the results if I change the chosen variable for tis (since I don't have a time dimension I don't know which one of my variable has to be tis or iis)? Thanks, Ines * * For searches and help try: * http://www.stata.com/support/faqs/res/findit.html * http://www.stata.com/support/statalist/faq * http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/stata/

I had forgotten to oad my general external directory
(add-to-list 'load-path "~/.emacs.d/..."). I forgot that the clhs.el is what gets compiled when (require 'cl).
Has anyone gotten this:
``cl package required at runtime``
I am able to run Emacs and compile whatever source files I am set up for. I'v looked for places to get cl but nothing ????
I get the meassage when trying to run
emacs -Q -l cedet-build.el -f cedet-build
Here is the context: I had CEDET and JDE(E) up and running fine for weeks and have built CEDET a few times. Then I re-tooled my .emacs for Ruby, Rails, and Javascript. I noticed that speedbar was not working (I get ``wrong type argument: integerp, (0,0)`` ) and so I tried to build CEDET again (and specifically JDE). But now it turns out that for some reason I am missing(?) the ``cl package''.
I figure there is somethign incompatible with my Ruby, Rails, and Javascript customs in .emacs and have been trying to diagnose it now for over an hour.
((I also get a message when when emacs starts up that my jde.el file is ``newer than byte-compiled``)).
Hoping someone has run across this and can save me some time, thanks.

Meet The 'Bridezilla' Planning Her Wedding Before She's Engaged [Video]
I don't watch the show Bridezilla's, but my girl does and I've heard these women can be a bit crazy. This chick takes the cake though.
One woman has been dating her boyfriend for ONE MONTH, but she already has two gowns hanging in her closet, has planned her bouquet, bridesmaids' looks and the reception right down to the music.


text: Hi, I upgraded to ML recently and I used iMessage to contact my sister. Everything was smooth, then a couple of weeks ago I wanted to talk to her and it kept on saying that "she is not registered". I looked around it and though that maybe i wasn't signed in correctly, so i signed out and back in. This kept on showing up, i tried to contact applecare but my iPhone kept on giving me "Call Failed" I tried to find a solution on apple community and they were of big help but it didnt work. i remembered that i tried my other sister's ID to sign in and it signed in beautifully, i asked my sister to sign me in with her mac and it did. This means the problem is not my ID its my mac. my Q is, can i delete iMessage and then re-install it? Or can i delete it but re-install ML again?

BBC crank identification help
Hi, ive got a 396 i believe crank with a casting number of 3804815. I cant find anything to match those numbers, ive found 3804816 and 3904815 but not what mine shows, here is a pic of it. Just trying to see if its cast or forged so i can sell the rotating assembly i have lying around. Thanks in advance!
Can't tell because of angle/clarity of pics. Don't have my crank book with me. Looks like cast.
Rule of thumb. If the parting line on the side of the crank throw is only a line, up to 1/16" wide it is a casting. If the line is 1/4" plus and looks like it has grind marks on it. It is forged.
Stand crank on end, on a shop towel. Rap a counter weight with a hammer. If it goes "thunk" it is cast. If it rings clearly, like a bell, it is a forging.
Thanks bob i think its cast also, im at school now so i cant take a better look at it to tell but i think i remember the parting line being very thin so its probably cast. What would would be a good selling price for the whole assembly, 10/10 crank, forged trw pistons on gm rods, its a 427 rotating assembly all fresh but has sat for awhile.
In the bottom pic, you can kind of see on the bottom throw what looks like grind marks like it has been clearanced or something, would this be a mark of the forging process you were talking about if its not cast? Thanks again
Hard to say on price. I can't sell 396-427 stuff. Everybody around here wants 454-500+ stuff even tho they can't afford it.
Prices here, good crank cast $150.00
rods, good bolts recon $200.00
Old TRW forgings around $200.00
Yeah i kind of figured that, well i'll try selling the stuff for the prices you listed and see what happens haha. Thanks again Bob! Anyone who might be able to identify the crank by the number id really appreciate it. Thanks
third counterweight on a 396 is 3/4 on a 427 it is 7/8 hope this helps
I was told it was a 427 rotating assembly so i assumed he just had a 396 crank and rods laying around as well as a 454 block so he made it a 427 + .030 assembly. When you say the different sizes, you are referring to the counterweight thickness correct?
yes the thickness of third counterweight. 396 has a lighter rotating assembly if it is a 396 crank and making a 427 using 454 block probably should have everything balanced for longevity. you can't mistake steel crank. it has a wide parting line. just put a 3/4 end wrench on it it will either fit or not
okay, thanks 1932 batman. I will check it out next time im home but i believe it to be a cast 396 crank not sure why nothing matches the casting numbers though... Its all balanced and im trying to sell the whole assembly to get a 489 kit.
Sorry its been awhile, it has a wide parting line like a cast but rings if i hit a counter weight with a hammer lightly like a forged...
Rings like a bell = forged
3804815 = forged
366T/396/402/427/427T 3.76" stroke.
Shoot, i think i meant to say it had a thin casting mark like a non forged. Now im just confusing myself. If that casting number comes back as forged like you said then it must be forged. Yippee! thanks man! Now to decide whether this short stroke higher rev combo will live in a studded 2 bolt or to try and sell it and get the 489 kit that I really want...
FWIW ... I had a new Scat cast crank 910454 installed and balanced in my 2-bolt main 454.
My machinist "guarantold me" that I wouldn't have a problem running my engine up to 7,000 RPM, and I have read much the same on many internet forums.
David Vizard, author of How To Build Chevy Big Blocks on a Budget seems to have good things to say about them, too.
According to him ... (page 32)
A GM factory Forged Steel crank (like yours) has 120,000 PSI strength
A GM factory Cast Steel crank has 80,000 PSI strength
and a Scat 900 Cast Steel crank has a 110,000 PSI strength.

I was promised two "free" roundtrip airfare vouchers through this company. The scam was that I had to send them $100 to cover applicable taxes and fees...that was in November 2013. Since then, I called numerous times inquiring about my vouchers but was told that I'd be hearing from them shortly.
Finally, on January 3, 2014, I sent a letter to them requesting the return of my $100. I followed up with a phone call a week later with a phone call and was told that indeed they had received my letter; however, it would take at least two weeks to process my refund.
I am currently caller number 29 with an expected wait time of 111 minutes. These people are ripoff artists and need to be permanently shut down.

Żurrieq seabed clean-up
A 23-strong team of certified divers and 15 onshore volunteers recovered over 1,200kg of recyclable waste from the seabed off Wied iż-Żurrieq during the annual clean-up organised by Green Pak and the Amphibians Scuba Diving Club.
Among the hundreds of objects gathered were soft-drink cans, glass bottles, plastic wrappings, fishing nets, ladders, carpets, traffic signposts, mobile phones, car accessories and tyres.
Onshore volunteers also gathered rubbish and debris from the surrounding location in an effort to recover litter before they are carried down into the sea by storms during the winter.

May 13, 2010 at 5:36 pm #1258908
I'm interested in advantages (other than the one ounce in weight) of the Ultra over the regular. Also, any other feedback on either of these stoves by actual users? Thanks!May 13, 2010 at 5:54 pm #1609591

My advice is to wait until the Bushbuddy Titanium version comes out. The gearswap will be flooded with 'em. I think its in development already.May 13, 2010 at 7:03 pm #1609605

@johnbrown2005Locale: Portland, OR
I'm curious too. They seem pretty nifty, then was thinking that when I most want a stove to work is when it's wet and windy out, seems like the same time it'd be most challenging to use the BB…May 13, 2010 at 9:31 pm #1609655
Nick TruaxBPL Member
@nicktruaxLocale: SW Montana
I use the Bushbuddy (regular model) and find it to be suitable in most all 3-season conditions. I opted for the non-ultra BB due to lower price and stronger materials of the OG BB. Basically because I wanted to save a few bucks and the difference in weight between the two is negligible IMO.
I live in SW MT but have used the BB all over the US. Thumbs up!May 13, 2010 at 10:59 pm #1609682

I spoke with Fritz and the Ti BB is still far away and needs more time to develop – Fritz is very busy.
I use the BBU in all seasons, winter till autumn. If you plan to use a BB your fire skills should be up to par, otherwise it won't much fun and you might not be able to boil a cup of water.May 14, 2010 at 6:22 am #1609708
What's the trick to finding dry wood when it's been raining?May 14, 2010 at 6:55 am #1609722
Keith SelboSpectator
@herman666Locale: Northern Virginia
It's every where. I use a 4 oz. titanium stove I made myself (photos). Fuel is sticks about the diameter of a pencil. The wood is only superficially wet. If it's raining, I strip the wet bark off the first handful with my knife to start the fire. Once it's going just I throw on the wet wood. It burns just fine. Don't use any part of a twig that has been in direct contact with the ground. It gets damp throughout. I put 15 drops of charcoal lighter on a wad of fiberglass in the bottom of my stove (it has a baffled air intake at the bottom), light it and throw on the first handful. Then I set on the pot.
People in this forum have told me that in the Pacific Northwest the wood is soaked through. I've never hiked there, but I've hiked in other temperate rain forest and never failed to get a good fire going in my stove using the above method. I think the higher temperatures inside the stove as opposed to those in an open campfire may account for that.
oops! Not sure why, but the first picture is the steel prototype (10 oz), not the titanium version. Packed stove & pot in second photo is titanium.May 14, 2010 at 11:26 am #1609797

>>What's the trick to finding dry wood when it's been raining?<<
At the bottom of the trees you usually will find death twigs which will be dry even if it has been raining. You also can collect some moist twigs while on the trail, put them in a stuff sack and carry them close to your body to dry them out a bit. You also can, with a strong knife like a puukko, split thicker twigs/ logs to get to the dry wood inside. Finally, I carry some 50 g of dry birch bark with me, which is a superb natural fire starter. That, together with a jelly soaked cotton ball get the BBU going in now time.May 14, 2010 at 1:08 pm #1609825

Just last weekend I was preparing to use a titanium woodburner stove in snow country. The snow was about five feet deep. As I scanned around the surface, there were stunted trees ("Krummholz") that grew next to exposed boulders. On the boulder tops, the dead branches were dried out from the extra warmth off the boulders. Whereas, just a couple of feet away the other branches were still damp from snow.
In some areas, we would not use live wood except in an emergency. Dead twigs aren't bad fuel if they are dry enough.

" Finally, I carry some 50 g of dry birch bark with me, which is a superb natural fire starter."
That's one of the best tips I know of. Learn to recognize white birch bark, because it has some oils in it that burn nicely even when it's wet. The same oils also slow the rate at which it decomposes, so the bark frequently outlasts the log, making it easy to acquire enough birch bark to get a fire going.May 14, 2010 at 1:28 pm #1609833

@b-g-2-2Locale: Silicon Valley
For that matter, it would be smart to learn most of the tree species in the area where you operate.
I'm going to be in an area where (I am told) there are only two species, spruce and cottonwood. I did some checking, and I don't think it is cottonwood, but rather balsam poplar.
As far as I can figure out, the spruce is going to be a much better fuel wood. The cottonwood/poplar tends to burn with a very smoky flame, or so I am told.

I bought 0.004 in. titanium sheet from titaniumgoat.com
Click HERE to go there. The metal is so thin it can be cut with a scissors.
As I said in my first post, the assembled stove pictured is a steel prototype which is welded (MIG welding).
I made the titanium version of the stove with no welds. It's all tab and slot. See below. I made drawings of patterns and glued them to the titanium and cut them out with scissors. I should add that I had to re-make some of the parts out of thicker metal (some of the rings) because the thin metal flexed too much under the weight of a full pot. I didn't have thick titanium so I used some 0.01 stainless steel. I still came out under 5 oz.

Dogs rescued from Duroville
THERMAL, Calif. - Over 40 dogs were rescued Thursday from the condemned trailer park commonly known as Duroville, but Riverside County Animal Services said there are hundreds more. Thursday started what will be months of rounding up these stray and abandoned dogs.
Ariana Gomez, a resident, says, "I think that it is sad seeing them without owners."
Within moments of arriving, you see dogs wandering the muddy streets.
"You can see the sadness in their face. It's ridiculous the things that people have done here," said Refugio Montanez, who is helping clean up the trailer park.
Many families have already left this condemned trailer park for new county housing, but people told us there wasn't enough room for many of their pets.
"They were saying you could only take one or two down to where they moved," said Montanez.
Many animals were left behind to fend for themselves.
"You will drive by the trailers and here is the dogs laying by the fences and they think that their owners are going to come home and they aren't," said Haley Montanez.
These dogs join the hundreds of strays in the area, none of them fixed.
"Unaltered pets do what unaltered pets do, they make love and make puppies.," said John Welsh, spokesman for Riverside County Animal Services.
These are puppies that can grow into aggressive dogs.
"They have over taken trailers, they lived underneath the trailers while their owners were still here, there has been a few biting in the last couple of weeks that I know of," said Montanez.
Ariana Gomez moved here nine years ago, and she said the dogs are a problem
"They go through all of the trash cans and get into the garbage and leave a mess," said Gomez.
"Anytime you have that many animals and if they start to roam in packs you are going to always run into problems of public safety where children can get hurt," said Welsh.
Now that the federal government has stepped in to tear down the trailer park, Riverside County Animal Services can now come in and help these animals.
"The ultimate goal is to find homes for all of these dogs that have been living in the desert,"said Welsh.
But it is going to take time. "This is going to probably be week upon week if not months, maybe 3 to 6 month project and this is just one little nugget the rest of the eastern part of the county will be tackled later on down the road," said Welsh.
Not all of the dogs are abandoned or strays; some have owners. Animal Services wants to make sure that they don't round up those dogs, and that is why they provided them with a special blue collar for identification.
Later down the road, Animal services said they will spay and neuter those dogs for free.
"We don't have a dollar sign yet. This is going to cost a lot of money, but taxpayer money is not being used for this. Our director is going to find some sources of grant funding," said Welsh.
One estimate is there could be nearly 700 dogs in that area. Riverside County Animal Services said they want to find homes for all of them.
After they are rounded up, they will be fixed. Once the dogs are healthy, they will be put up for adoption at shelters all over southern California.
