Last night's U.S. senate debate featuring Republican Mark Kennedy, DFLer Amy Klobuchar and Independence Party member Robert Fitzgerald leads the digest. The Star Tribune, MPR, Forum Communications and the AP have stories.
I guess Kennedy and Klobuchar can pull those ads discussing high gasoline prices.
Demorcat Lori Swanson is ahead in a poll focusing on the attorney general's race. It's hard to get too excited about it since a large group didn't know who was running and was undecided. Swanson, Republican Jeff Johnson and I-P candidate John James try to get their names out there by talking the death penalty. MPR and the Pi Press have stories.
Matt Entenza and state Rep. Denise Dittrich don't face campaign fines. The Pi Press and Star Tribune say the Campaign Finance Board dismissed complaints against them.
I-P gubernatorial candidate Peter Hutchinson releases his energy policy/environment plan.
He'll also hold a news conference today blasing his opponents for ducking debates.
RNC Chair Ken Mehlman is in town today. He's raising some money and will do some "grass roots campaigning" in Woodbury.
A staffer for GOP Congressman John Kline apologizes for making an inappropriate remark.
Retiring DFL Congressman Martin Sabo is silent on Keith Ellison.
Finally the Detroit Free Press has a profile on Ellison (he grew up in Detroit). The most interesting nugget is that his brother is a Christian pastor and a Republican:
Brian Ellison, for example, is a conservative Republican and Baptist preacher. Keith Ellison is a liberal Democrat. But Brian Ellison has campaigned for his brother and will fly to Minnesota to help him celebrate an election victory. "Before anything else, we're brothers," said Brian Ellison. "Out of respect for one another, we have never talked religion. We've talked politics, and he thinks I'm absolutely crazy."

Regarding the April 16 Steamboat Today article "Choir earns 'superior' rating at competition," I had the pleasure of accompanying the group (on piano) for the event in Craig on Monday. It was truly memorable to see the joy, huge smiles and also a sense of relief afterward when the choir members realized they could perform at such a high level. The judges were excellent, offering witty, encouraging tips that added to the overall experience.
My congratulations to this gifted group of singers and to their outstanding director, Wendy Dillon, on their achievement. A bit of advice to the Steamboat community: Be sure to put the choir's May 29 concert at the high school on your calendar!

RuPaul's Drag Race – 'RuPaul's Hair Extravaganza'
Sadly, my favorite glamour gal, the lovely Nicolette won't be joining me for this recap. She's got a packed schedule and a photo shoot – the rigors of being such a fabulous queen! This week, the queens come into the workroom through the eternally squeaky door and, as Alexis so eloquently put it, we're down to the "Top 5, bitches!" Manila's feeling a void left by Carmen's "giant ass" and appoints Raja (who's looking super boy-sexy today) as HBIC in his fallen Heather's absence. Raja seems to be all for it and says he's not holding it back anymore, gloating about his previous win by prancing around saying "Suck it, bitches." Yara and (especially) Alexis are not amused.
Shangela, in the bottom two last wek, knows he's got to work harder to prove to his fellow competitors that he deserves to still be in the running. He feels Manila and Raja still see him as a threat because they are so bothered that he's still around. And…oh…what's that sound? Guuurl, you got She Mail! With all of the puns girl Ru tosses out – like "hair today, gone tomorrow" and "parting is such sweet sorrow", you know this challenge has got to be follically related. Boy Ru, looking sharp, introduces the mini-challenge. This week, the queens have to create a headpiece made from "items swiped from the gay beach" – which gives Ru the chance to say "You've got crabs…beach balls, grass skirts and a whole bunch of fun stuff" that they can use for their creations. The queens make a mad dash for the inflatable pool toys, festive fruity cocktail straws and plastic leis and get to work.
Raja is crafting an "Alexander McQueen" headpiece made of plastic lobsters and glue. Manila's having issues getting his inflatable palm tree to stand up (innuendos ahoy!) Shangela, who is still pretty much a hot mess when it comes to any kind of wardrobe construction, is trying to make an inflatable parrot, dolphin and spome grass skirt material into something. Time's up and Ru checks out the queens' handiwork. Raja's headpiece is a little sloppy, but kind of creative, adding shells to the lobsters and glue. (And it really doesn't matter what he wears, bitch can always seems to pull it off.) Yara used the greass skirt to make braids and decorated the top of his headpiece with drink umbrellas and small plastic beach toys. Manila went showgirl, dangling small balls on leis from his palm tree. Sadly, his tree fell limp during his presentation. Alexis went with a deflated pool toy/lei motif. Poor Shangela's hat looked like "a parrot humping a dolphin". Of course, Raja wins…again.
There's more Drag Race after the jump!
This week's main challenge gives the chance for the queens to "wig out". The (criminally underused) pit crew wheel out an assortment of wigs and Ru tells the guys that they have to create three distinct hairstyles. The first is a "classic look from another era", the second is a modern, red carpet-worthy look and the third is a "fantasy hair extravaganza". Since Raja won the mini-cheallenge, he gets a 5-second headstart in wig selection. It's a free-for-all as the wigs get grabbed up. Yara seems to be lacking a bit of inspiration and is walking around, brushing a wig, trying to get some ideas. Manila and Raja think Yara will excel at this challenge. Shangela asks them how they think he'll do and Manila responds with "I think you'll do fine" (which elicits a hearty guffaw from Yara) and then sarcastically shows him what a comb does. Me-ow! Shangela is determined to prove that he's got creativity out the wazoo and can take this challenge.
Alexis thinks the fantasy look is going to be the most difficult, because he usually uses his own hair for a base. Shangela is going for "Donna Summer meets Diana Ross" for his classic look. Yara's a little lost, using an afro wig for an 80s look(?). Ru checks in. Alexis tells Ru his classic look is going to be a 1940s look, which prompts Ru to crack "During the 40s there was a ration on latex titties" (I knew Ru didn't like those things!) Alexis is doing an "evening modern mohawk" for his red carpet look. Sounds great, but he has absolutely nothing to show Ru. Oh, Alexis does have the beginnings of his fantasy, cotton candy-inspired look, which doesn't really get much of a reaction. Shangela is also working on his fantasy look. Currently it's a beehive wig with what looks like two horns on it. Shangela describes it as "an alien princess from the future". I'm officially curious about this one. Ru thinks Shangie's classic look is beautiful. Shangela tells Ru that he's no longer asking for advice because he knows the other queens are over his constant requests for help. Yara's classic look is still a mystery to me. It's braids in the front and two huge afro wigs in the back. Ru asks Yara if he's concerned that Shangela's also doing a 70s-era style, Yara says he came up with it first. Raja says he's channeling Janice from The Muppets for his red carpet look (=Donatella Versace, amirite?) His fantasy wouldn't involve a wig, he says, because "the wig would be pulled off!" Cheeky! Ru wants to be wowed by Raja's fantasy look and he's feeling the pressure. Manila's classic look combines a Marie Antoniette wig with a white afro. Ru thinks it's better as a fantasy look and says he thinks the era should really be clear. After the initial assesments, Ru tells the queens that their hair creations will be judged by Wayne Brady and Fantasia Barrino. In addition, Ru wants the queens to make a runway outfit made entirely out of hair. The queens look overwhelmed. This oughta be good.
The pressure of creating a dress out of hair must have gotten to Yara, because he's yelling and screaming like a crazy person. Enjoy Yara's stress-relieving antics in this clip:
Yara says he wants to win the challenge and keeps coming around Alexis' work area to get feedback on his look. Alexis has got his own problems. He's worried about having to wear padding and hair while having a feminine silhouette. He wasn't happy with the finished product and took a pair of scissors to it. Shangela's experiencing a "creative high" – and I hope that involves covering those weird horns with hair. All of the queens are stressed out. The day of the runway show, the queens are really feeling the pressure. They've still got a lot of work to do. As the queens get ready for the runway, they chat about the art of drag. Listen in:
It's runway time! Ru takes the stage in a purple sequined gown…girl Ru always looks jaw-droppingly spectacular. I'm so jealous! Michelle Visage is wearing a black dress with these weird, hairy red epaulets and Santino is wearing an oddly-sized cowboy hat. I don't get the connection, but then again, I don't get Santino. Wayne Brady could be the oddest selection for the judges' panel all season (not that I don't love the guy, he's got nothing to do with hair.) Fantasia's okay, but her Aunt Bunny would have made an infinitely more amusing judge. Here come the queens!
First up are the classic looks. Yara's braid/afro combo looks much better on his head – and, judging by his silver disco bodysuit, he finally got the era right. Alexis was going for 1940s, Old Hollywood glam, but as much as I thought he looked nice, I wasn't really seeing it. Raja went with a 1960s bouffant 'do and Twiggy-esque fashion. He says he was going for a Mad Men look, but I saw more Laugh In (liked it, though!) Shangela went for a Spanish look (I don't think "spanish" is an era. Girlfriend might be in trouble – and the back of the wig looks a little sloppy. Uh-oh. And what happened to the disco wig?) Manila stuck with the 80s-ish "Rock Me Amadeus" look. It's also another one that looks way better on.
Next up are the red carpet looks. Yara's is described as being very "Desperate Housewives". He left his own spiky hair exposed on the side. Kinda edgy, not sure if I dig it though. Alexis' "red carpet mohawk" was kind of col, but I didn't like the contrasting blond braid he intertwined with it. Raja went with a razor cut blond wig, which looked really awesome. Was it just me, or did he make the roots dark? Shangela went for a sophisticated look he dubbed "Diahann Carroll at the Oprah's Legends Ball". I liked the look when he was facing front, but the side view killed it for me. Manila was "Jennifer Love Hewitt's version of Audrey Hepburn". He looked pretty, but it wasn't knocking me out.
Last, but certainly not least – the fantasy hair extravaganza! Yara's look was really stunning, using blond afro wigs as a skirt, twisted braids as a top and an elaborate headpiece. Alexis toned down the cotton candy look (although there was still lots of pink to be seen) and was more "Phantom of the Opera"/circus. The dress was a little disorganized, but the wig was kinda cute. Raja was a vision in pastel. He went completely cotton candy – wearing a pink wog with a dress that looked good enough to eat. I liked Shangela's Conan the Barbarian-esque dress (and hair sword), but the hair was still weird. Should have put hair on the cones! And damn, can Manila pull a theme together or what? His bumblebee look was perfect!
The judges have a lot of critiquing to do. Yara tells Ru that for him, extravaganza means animal. Ru asked if that meant looking like a scorpion and a poodle (Michelle chimed in with "A scoodle!"). Santino said he looked Dr. Seuss-ian, like "a very beautiful woman from Whoville". Wayne added "More like the ho of Whoville!" Fantasia said Yara's classic look reminded her of her aunties (I can see Aunt Bunny rocking that 'do! Gurrrrl, please! ) Santino "got" that Alexis' fantasy look was a circus girl, but called his runway look "budget RuPaul". Michelle notes that Alexis is always "out of proportion" in his gowns (I think he's over-padded!) Raja got a bunch of kudos for the pastel fantasy. Santino loved the rockin' red carpet look but noted that Raja looks better with less makeup. Wayne loved the 60s look, but, like me, thought it was more Goldie Hawn/Laugh In. Shangela got called out for his Spanish look (Fantasia thought the dress was too big) and red carpet look (Santino didn't think it was fancy enough). Michelle couldn't believe he went for a daytime red carpet look. Fantasia loved the classic look. Santino thinks Manila over-accessorized on the red carpet look with a tiara and huge bejeweled necklace that made him look "mannish". Michelle loves the whole bumblebee look too!
After the queens went to untuck, the judges gave kudos to Yara for his "scoodle" look and 70s 'do. Wayne asked if it was wrong to admire Yara's Puerto Rican booty and said this runway show "messes with your perception of things." Michelle countered with "Now you see what happened to Eddie Murphy!" Bazinga, Michelle! Michelle had nothing nice to say about any of Alexis' looks. Raja, as always, was a judge favorite, although Santino kind of wished he would have gone with a more elegant red carpet look. Fantasia says she can identify with Shangela because they're both underdogs. Santino agrees that the underdog thing is why he's still around, because he's "clueless" about fashion. Sadly, he's still not blending his makeup very well. Wayne thinks Shangie has a great spirit but may be pursuing the wrong avenue for his talents. Manila also scored high marks for his trio of looks. Ru has made his decision and the queens return to the runway.
There are really no surprises regarding who's staying and who's in the bottom two this week. Raja is safe. Yara scoodled his way to victory and finally won a challenge – and an Alaskan cruise! Alexis is up for elimination. Manila was a killer bee and is once again safe. And, of course, Shangela's back in the bottom two. Two non-Heathers must now face off in the lip sync for their loves. This week, the song is "Even Angels" by Fantasia. It was looking pretty even at the beginnig, but Alexis really gave his all and interpreted the song beautifully. And yes, this means Shangela is going home. Halle-boo! (Although I really didn't want to see either of them go home!) The show's wrapping up when Ru says that it's ultimately his decision as to who sashays away every week and he's been criticized for sending queens packing before their time, so he asks Michelle to confer with Santino and Billy B. to decide which previously eliminated queen gets to return to the competition. Say what? What a twist! Who would you like to see come back? I'd love to see Delta Work come back – and what about Venus D'Lite, who only got to strut his stuff for one measly episode. Next week's going to be good! Until then, can I get an "Amen"?

Portland's Loren Coleman is known for a lot of things - cryptozoology, book-writing, and generally being an interesting guy. But a new theory has emerged online that credits Coleman with predicting the Aurora cinema shooting, as well as several other incidents of public violence. It makes for interesting reading, and highlights a fair few too many coincidences for comfort.
We've written about him many times over the years - in fact it was former Phoenix scribe Jess Kilby, who wrote this piece on Coleman way back when, who brought this more recent link to my attention.
Makes me think we - and others in town, as well as nationally - should be paying more attention to what Coleman's saying.

It's now six weeks since I began my year-long challenge to be a supportive wife, spending more time cooking, cleaning and caring for the man in my life.
How's it going? I hear you ask. Well, not very well, thanks for asking.
"I haven't had a home-cooked meal for weeks," said my youngest daughter at the weekend.
"That will be because I've gone off cooking," I said, as if that simple statement made everything all right.
"I liked it when you cooked," she said staring at her butter chicken, a variation on the chicken madras and the chicken korma I had been feeding her courtesy of the local Indian takeaway which not only delivers but has eftpos as well.
There was a time when the same daughter begged to be allowed takeaways as a welcome relief from stuffed roast pork, lemon risotto with snapper and rabbit pie.
"Just something plain would be nice," she groaned.
Before my supportive wife challenge my husband and I shared the cooking depending on who felt like it that night and it usually ended up with us cooking equally.
I eagerly collected recipes for interesting dishes, enjoyed shopping for all the ingredients and then started out at 4pm to cook the meal of a lifetime.
It was fun, because I had to do it only every second night or so.
But then I started cooking every night, to give my husband those few extra hours to keep working.
I'm not saying out loud that my husband has some form of attention deficit disorder, but let's just say he has an impressive work ethic which means that when he has stuff to do, like publishing two books simultaneously for his new publishing business, he works every damn hour God gives him and then some. I'll often wake to find that he and the puppy have been in his office since 5am.
The cooking every night thing coincided with my decision, before I decided to become a supportive wife, to agree to do a week's worth of seminars entitled A Simpler Life. Yes, I get the irony.
I delivered 11 of them around the country in five days while still writing my "columns and things".
This is how I describe my normal work week as a supportive wife. When asked what I do, I describe the four columns plus a newsletter I write as "columns and things".
Added up they resemble a fulltime work week but I try to pass them off as at best part-time work, similar to helping out at the school tuck-shop. It makes me feel better.
During the week of A Simpler Life, supportive wife morphed into stressed-out, angry, resentful, don't give a toss about what you're having for your bloody tea, wife.
There was no coffee in bed, dishes done in a jiffy, don't mind me as I sweep around you at your desk.
The whole house slumped into a state of disarray. Dust balls danced down the hall, clean washing luxuriated over the couch while more washing remained on the line for days on end. My house was dishevelled and so was I.
One morning I caught my husband putting on a load of washing.
"Don't do that!" I screeched. "My job, not yours!"
"I'm just trying to help out and I have five minutes before I need to start proofing again."
"Not on my watch mister, get back in there."
Then he tried to cook dinner.
"I just bought some steak when I was up the road at the post office," he said apologetically.
The one night I did cook I was testing a recipe for one of my columns involving the use of tinned corned beef and mashed potatoes, sometimes known as a hash. My hash stubbornly bubbled like a Rotorua mud pool then refused to leave the pan.
"Need a hand?" asked my husband at 8pm when most people would reasonably expect to see something resembling dinner on the table.
"Over it," was all I said and walked out of the kitchen as I heard him get out the toasted sandwich maker - again.
I'm now making a concerted return to my new role as supportive wife, and only time, or the lack of it, will tell if I can keep it up.

National Spring Cleaning Week 2012: 10 Ways To De-Clutter Your Closet (PHOTOS)
This week marks National Spring Cleaning Week. Each day, The Huffington Post Style team will give you tips on how to organize the most used spaces in your home.
When it comes to closets, most of us like to dream big. Racks for heels, hooks for ties and a never ending shelf that can carry all of our designer bags. But, in reality, the majority of us have a tiny closet that ends up holding more than just clothes. This is where closet-clutter problems begin.
"Unless you have the luxury of a walk in-closet, you should only be keeping your clothes in there," says Andrew Neary, a professional organizer based in Toronto.
To kick off a week of cleaning, why not start in a space most of us use -- or even avoid -- daily? Here are Neary's 10 tips to de-clutter and organize your wardrobe space.
Before you start cleaning out your closet, make sure your bedroom is tidy. You don't want to start spring cleaning with two large messes.
Just like any home project, de-cluttering your closet should begin with a clean plate. "The biggest thing you can possibly do in a closet is take everything out to sort," says Toronto-based professional organizer Andrew Neary. Sort your clutter in piles of clothes, shoes, accessories and anything else you find stashed away.
Neary recommends hanging pants up by the ankle. This will not only save you room, but it will also help you find clothes faster, he says. You can hang clothes that are similar in size together. Keep pants and long dresses at one end and tops and skirts at the other.
You really don't need your bikini for the whole year (unless you travel a lot). Neary says when it comes to organizing, pack your extreme weather clothing in one box and only keep your spring/summer essentials.
Neary recommends using clear boxes for easy access. If your closet has shelves, put away your off-season clothing items and accessories in labelled boxes.
Every item in your closet likes to be taken care of, especially your precious jewels. (If your jewels are too precious, you're better off storing them in a safe.) Find a drawer outside or inside your closet space and dedicate it to organizing jewellery.
Too many hangers? Neary suggests using hangers that can hold more than one clothing item to maximize closet space.
Kids' toys? Garbage? Work papers? Neary has seen it all. If you are guilty of putting any of these in your closet, take a step back and remember: Your closet is for you -- not for everyone else's junk.
Shoes should also be hung in an organizer. Also, since warmer weather is coming up for most Canadians, keep your spring/summer shoes on the front shelf and move winter boots behind.
"Give your clothes the freedom to be fabulous," Neary says. In other words, if you love our clothes, you should find them a home. Don't keep your favourite jeans on your bedroom or closet floor.

It is now nearly a half century since Israel troops swept into the West Bank during the Six Day war of the 1960s. The assumption of the Israel government and Arab nations is that at some point in the near future, the status of the West Bank would be resolved. However, first years, then decades past of inaction on the part of the world, but plenty of action on the part of Israel governments. Now, over 300,000 Israelis live in the area and new buildings continually go up. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with Palestinian leaders only to be met with a determination on their part of refusing to accept any further Israel house construction in the West Bank. Clinton urged President Abbas to allow Israel to complete building in progress and was met with a resounding, "no."
Palestinians can not allow further West Bank construction to proceed without, in a sense, surrendering that area to the state of Israel. It is up to Israel to take the first step toward peace in the Middle East by ending all present and future construction. Abbas put in bluntly: "peace must have its commitments-(that) being the complete halt to settlement building." Israel leaders can claim to seek peace, but until they deal with the west bank settlement issue, there can be no peace in the Middle East. The ball is in the court of Israel.

Investment Figures Of The Week
COMMENTARY A dreary week in the world financial markets. U.S. stocks were generally lackluster, as both stocks and bonds continued to meander aimlessly. Small- and midsize-company stocks were off 0.7%. Bonds were also undistinguished performers, with both long- and short-term interest rates edging upward. Inflation expectations continued to dog the markets, with traders discouraged on July 27 by word of a greater-than-expected rise in durable-goods orders during June.

The last few weeks we have been keeping busy around the Nelson/Motueka area. We did a few day hikes up to some local mountain areas and spent some more time on the beaches. The weather has definately changed to winter weather now. Its really cold at night and we had snow on the near by mountains last week. It seems like we kind of just skipped right past autumn. The leaves dont change color as dramatically as they do at home, so its easy to miss.
We are planning on taking the ferry over to the North Island this week to continue our travels.
Not much more to say.... until next time.... haha

... drive into the forest of Umbra for a picnic.
We drove for about an hour along more of the narrow, winding mountain roads that lead to the state forest.

Padre Pio and St. Michael the Archangel
First we went to Mass celebrated by Fr. Parker at the Shrine of Padre Pio in the chapel. There was a St. Michael the Archangel painting there. This is where Padre Pio often said Mass and heard confessions. Then we ate breakfast at our hotel and went back up the hill to tour the Padre Pio museum and shrine.

Basically South Beach is a good place to go if you like crowds, shopping, crowded beaches and outdoor dining. It was fun for a day and a bit though. New Years Eve consisted of beer, cards, ice-cream a cigarro-cigarro-ciggaro and fireworks on the beach - somehow a winning combination.

I would really like to get rid of this book and the user guide and quick start guide.
Not sure about the sample, but you can't delete or archive the user guide or the quick start guide. The reason you can't see the file for the sample, is because the BN books are stored in a separate, hidden partition.
The only way you can delete things is through the website, I don't know why the sample doesn't show up there.
I don't think it's an oversight, I think they are trying to protect users from themselves, from inadvertently deleting something, since once you delete it, it's gone and you have to buy it again if you want it. And if you think this can't happen, folks have been known to accidentally delete books online, even though they give you at least two warnings.

I think the simplest way to fix everything since you've had it a relatively short time is to choose Erase & Deregister Device from the Device Info menu under Settings.
Once that's done, re-register your NOOK. Read the User Manual. Re-download content from your online library.
That should do the trick.

Except on the N2E, you can't see the partition where B&N direct downloads go. So the OP would never be able to take care of his issue.

Dan_O, samples can't be deleted. That's my understanding.
The user who mentioned Erase & Deregister since your device is new. That would work.
I suspect that 6 page sample is for the new Agnry Birds book or cartoon series or something. Since B&N has a very strong tie-up with Rovio (Makers of Angry Birds) that might be there by default. So best option would be to just ignore it.

The only road to the Amboy National Natural Landmark Recreation Area will be closed from Saturday to about June 27 for paving.
But would-be visitors needn't worry about missing something during the closure. It's unlikely there will be an eruption to liven things up. The last eruption was about 10,000 years ago, and the crater is either dead or dormant, said UC Riverside doctoral candidate Harmony Colella.
"It's pretty spectacular to see. It's a cinder cone and it rises right out of the desert," Colella said. "Earth science students (from UCR) are taken there on field trips," she said.
Until now, visitors have had to bump and scrape over the unmaintained, rough gravel road, said David Briery, spokesman for the Department of the Interior's Bureau of Land Management.
During construction, visitation to the Amboy Crater will be limited to foot traffic and that's not encouraged. The segment to be paved is about a mile and a half long and extends from old Route 66, also called the National Trails Highway, to a large parking area. A foot trail extends from the parking area to the crater itself.
"Temperatures will soar above 100," Briery said. "It could be extremely risky."
The area is designated as Amboy National Natural Landmark Recreation Area.
During the closure, the hike to the crater and back will amount to a 6-mile round-trip. Anyone considering the hike "should prepare themselves with plenty of water and skin protection," Briery said. "Hikers will also encounter difficult conditions crossing sand and lava for one mile before reaching the trailhead," he added.
"The area was designated a national natural landmark in 1973, and the crater is recognized for its visual and geological significance," Briery said, calling it an excellent example of a very symmetrical volcanic cinder cone.
"There is a breach on the west side of the crater where basaltic lava poured out over a vast area of 24 square miles, which contains lava lakes, collapsed lava tubes and sinks, spatter cones and massive flows of basalt," Briery said.
The crater lies about halfway between Barstow and Needles (about 66 miles from each) off Historic Route 66 National Trails Highway.
For further information, please contact BLM's Needles Field Office at 760-326-7000.

But bolt-on acquisitions remain very much on the table. The latest asset with which Telstra has been linked is privately held, Adelaide-based internet service provider Adam Internet.
On face value, it would be a curious move. It would presumably give Telstra tens of thousands of customers in South Australia, where its market share lags the rest of the country.
Adam's managing director, Scott Hicks, departed last month, reportedly after falling out with his father, chairman Greg Hicks.
Perth-based internet service provider and current market darling
It wouldn't be the first bolt-on deal Telstra has signed this year.
Telstra's applications and ventures group, led by Deena Shiff, has executed a string of smaller deals, including an investment in California-based video streaming service Ooyala. It also bought restaurant booking service Dimmi and cloud-based contact centre provider IPscape.
More venture-style transactions are expected.

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
As the writers' strike continues, Comedy Central stalwarts Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert's returns to the screen without their scribes last night were highly anticipated. Would they be able to talk, or would they just stare wide-eyed at the screen and stammer helplessly for 30 minutes? Well, both shows were entertaining (if slightly off) and definitely strike-focused, which in the current moment of political frenzy seemed kind of weird.
Stewart kicked off his show sporting a "strike unibrow" and proceeded to give a bitterly sarcastic rundown of the digital revenue the strikers are fighting for, saying the $1.99 fee for The Daily Show on iTunes isn't for content, it's for "shipping and handling." There were some cute bits, like the on-screen caption "space reserved for clever pun," but one wonders how much was, you know, written. Stewart was clearly furious over the situation and seemed to mock the very idea that he could be prevented from combining words with other words: a deliberate taunting of the Guild?
Colbert's ironic shtick ("unions are destroying America!") is probably easier to pull off under the circumstances, and as such was, in fact, a less-ambiguous stand than Stewart's, but the show's usual spiraling, complex word-play was absent last night. Colbert even had the cameras point at each other to prove there was nothing on the TelePrompters: wow, for real? But the Report relied heavily on clips from older shows, and both he and Stewart used the same joke about their writers playing "Guitar Hero." That's actually something I've often wondered about: how do they coordinate their scripts so they don't end up doing the same bits? Guess that's the writers' job. Anyway, the New York Times was kind of harsh, calling Stewart's show a "jarring display of solipsism" and lamenting the lack of attention to the issues of the day, saying many young people "rely on his show as their chief source of news." That's a theory I hear all the time but I have yet to see proven by anything except a random poll showing college kids are likely to check off Stewart's name on a survey. Clearly people are getting news other places too; otherwise how else would they get the jokes? If the lack of campaign mockery on the Daily Show adversely affect youth participation in the New Hampshire primary, as the Times seemed to suggest, then we've got bigger problems than just a strike.

NEWB Question SPT intake and AP
So I am sure this has been beaten to death and I appologize for opening another thread with a similar question that has been asked many times.... However, after a fair amount of research I am left with a couple of questions. I have an SPT intake on my car (it came with it so I don't have the stock air box) and my Accessport shows up tomorrow. I know there are mixed reviews on if it is a good idea to run an OTS map with the SPT, but my question is more which map to run. I will be flashing stage 1 for now and there is a stage 1 map and a stage 1+Cobb SF intake map. I have read these intakes are similar which makes me question if I should run the standard stage 1 or go with the stage 1+SF? Any thoughts on this would be appreciated.
The SPT intake requires custom tuning in order to use. If you have it on there now, you should probably look into buying the stock airbox until you can get that taken care of.
I went ahead and just switched from an SPT to a Cobb intake based on Cobb's new recommendations for their new 3.10 maps. When I ran the 3.00 map I did have about -4 to -6 A/F learning with the SPT intake. This is still within the acceptable limits and a tech from Cobb said my map looked fine but said it was the SPT intake that was causing this.
I then switched to the 3.10 map and the A/F went back to 0. So it seems that the new maps from Cobb work just fine with the SPT intake, or at least it did on my car. The new maps are much smoother, make more boost, and the boost comes on earlier. I used Virtual Dyno to plot the runs
I haven't logged a run yet with the new Cobb intake, but I will soon. I'm expecting to see the same power. I picked up the intake used for $80, so it was worth it just to try them back to back to see if the SPT intake really caused a problem.

When you switched to the 3.10 map did you go with the stock intake map or the Cobb SF intake?
[quote=bigred419;275934]When you switched to the 3.10 map did you go with the stock intake map or the Cobb SF intake?[/quote]
I left the SPT intake on it to see how the car responded to the 3.10 map. Everything in the logs looked fine after flashing the new map. The A/F learning went back to 0 and some of the fine knock learning was less too. So I could have kept the SPT intake on there and been OK.
I then switched to the Cobb intake, but haven't logged it yet. I just haven't had the time yet.
Since you don't have the stock air box to change back I would say go ahead and install Stage 1. Drive the car very softly for about a week to allow the tune to settle in. Watch the video below to learn how to log properly. Pull a few logs and look for any problems like they discuss in the video. If you see any knock or A/F learning that's out of whack then find yourself a stock air box or Cobb intake. I'm sure there are plenty of people that would sell you a stock air box for cheap.
Now, of course, do all this stuff at your own risk. If you don't feel comfortable doing this then don't. I don't mean to contradict brfatal. He knows what he's talking about, I'm just telling you my experience with my car. I ran the stage 2 tune with the SPT intake for almost two years because Cobb used to say this was OK. They changed their minds with the 3.10 tunes since they started those tunes from scratch.

I will be loading stage 1 tonight and we will see how she does. Thanks for the help to both of you. I will post my data logs after I break her in. Hopefully all looks good and I can worry about buying a downpipe instead of trying to locate a stock air box.
Just loaded stage 1!! We will see what happens.... Is there anywhere that I can find typical values for stage 1 for the AP monitors? I took a quick drive around the block and when looking at the monitors, my boost reads -10 at idle and stayed in the negative range during light driving. I tried to stay off the throttle, but got on it a very little and boost did at least go into the positive readings. Is this normal? The AP had a target boost of -2 (I think) at idle while I was reading -10.
So with a little use of that bar that says google on it, it looks like this is a normal idle value. I was just not expecting it to be that far negative or to be that far from what the AP says is its target. I would still appreciate links to typical values so I can avoid scaring the &*@# out of my self. Will data log after a few days of less than spirited driving which is going to prove hard :sneaky:
You can set the target to what ever you want I believe, so it means nothing. When searching google use this syntax "site:wrxtuners.com whatever you're searching for". You should find it.
My boost gauge says -24inHg. So convert that to pounds/in and you should have your answer.
Congrats on the AP. give it a week and then have some fun. Oh, and here's a tip. Don't use the launch control unless you've got an extra 6k in the bank.
Here is a stage 1 datalog I did yesterday on my 2006 wrx tr. All the values seem good, may give you a reference.
^Dude, where's your AFR on your datalog?
Crap, I was messing with the parameters yesterday and must have missed it. That wont do him a bit of good at all lol.

The Northern Advocate's front-page report yesterday about an HMS Bounty replica sinking off the US coast stirred memories for old Whangarei seadog Don Nightingale.
He worked on the sunken ship which was not the same Bounty built in Whangarei in 1979 and used in the 1984 Dino De Laurentiis film The Bounty.
The Bounty which sank when caught by Hurricane Sandy off the North Carolina coast this week was built in Nova Scotia in 1962 for the MGM film Mutiny on the Bounty which starred Marlon Brando and Trevor Howard.
Mr Nightingale, who is developing a car museum at Glenbervie on the eastern outskirts of Whangarei, was hired in Tahiti as an extra for the 1962 movie and appeared on screen as a sailor high in the yardarms on the Bounty. He met Brando - a "regular guy" whom he liked - and Howard, who he said "liked a drink".
Mr Nightingale, then aged in his 20s, was in Tahiti early in a long voyage of overseas exploration he undertook after three years in the army, which included infantry service in Malaya with the 1st Battalion NZ Regiment.
From Tahiti, he sailed to New York, where he was working at a Long Island shipyard where the Bounty was taken after its movie role was over and "stripped" for winter, so Mr Nightingale was back up the masts removing rigging and sails.
From Long Island, Mr Nightingale moved to Cape Cod, where he set up a boys' sailing camp. Around that time he also visited the shipyard in Nova Scotia where the Bounty had been built off Admiralty plans, but significantly larger to accommodate the film crew and equipment.
"It was traditional construction, not like the steel boat built in Whangarei," he said.
He lost track of the Bounty, but an internet search showed it was sailed to Britain in 2007 and visited several ports masquerading as the pirate ship The Black Pearl from the Pirates of the Caribbean film series.

CORAL GABLES, Fla. – Four University of Miami women's tennis players participated in two ITA Summer Circuit events over the weekend.
Stefanie Wagner, Kelsey Laurente and Brittany Dubins each competed in the Summer Circuit event at the University of Florida, while Deborah Suarez traveled to College Station, Tex. to compete at Texas A&M University.
"I'm happy to see these players out competing in the summer," head coach Paige Yaroshuk-Tews said. "Steffi and Kelsey have been playing some great tennis and it showed this weekend. I believe that their hard work in the summer months will pay off when the fall rolls around. One of our team goals has been to have a stronger fall, so this is definitely a step on the right direction."
Wagner and Laurente, seeded No. 1 and No. 2 in the tournament respectively, cruised through the first four rounds to meet each other in the tournament's singles final. Wagner defeated Laurente 6-1, 7-5 to win the singles portion of the tournament.
After facing off against each other in the singles final, Wagner and Laurente teamed up for doubles and were eventually crowned the winners after beating fellow Cane Dubins and her partner Lilly Kimbell 8-5 in the finals.
In College Station, Suarez had tremendous success as well, reaching the singles semifinal before falling to Julia Fellerhoff 7-5, 6-0.

Inspired: Vests for Fall
When I was hanging out with my favorite girls, Carly from Thirty Something Fashion and Jill from Glamamom, in NYC, we got to chatting about Carly's personal shopping box service. I used it this summer and was so pleased with what she found for me that I'm planning on using it again this fall! We were talking about how I need pieces that layer well since you never know whether it's going to be eighty degrees or fifty during the winter in Florida and Carly mentioned how she's all over vests for fall. By the way, she posted a great piece on them yesterday!
She just so happened to be wearing a killer leather Rachel Zoe vest at the time…and could you die over Jill's stunning statement necklace? But I digress…I am SO with Carly on vests. I've been obsessed with them since last year, yet haven't pulled the trigger yet on buying any. With vests being such a big fall 2013 fashion trend, it's time…Don't you think?
Vests and a pair of booties can instantly take something like a summer maxi to a fall kinda place! And we all know how many maxis this girl owns. Haha!
So, do you plan on wearing vests this fall too lovelies?

It may just be that government officials and ministers are feeling a bit burnt over the Solid Energy debacle, but close attention is being paid to NZ Post. There are a lot of differences between the two SOEs, but the similarities are worrying some officials. NZ Post's core business, delivering mail, is dying and it has expansion plans. Its purchase of Gareth Morgan Investments was part of plans to expand Kiwibank, which will need more capital for investments. This is money ministers are unwilling to hand over. A few alarm bells are going off because Kiwibank has high cost ratios compared to other banks and the SOE wants to get into new businesses such as insurance. Meanwhile, NZ Post's plans to develop a secure digital mailbox called "YouPost" have cost $6 million and deadlines have not been met. The SOE now hopes to reveal all by the end of the year. If it can take on email and win, that will be impressive, but it's a big ask. Under NZ Post chairman Michael Cullen and chief executive Brian Roche, Kiwibank has been addressing some of its problems. It is interesting that Cullen is working on the expansion plans when he was against NZ Post getting into the banking business when he was in office and as a minister insisted it remain a low-risk retail bank.
All Black captain Richie McCaw's latest gig has been as Fonterra's global ambassador, making a tour of Sri Lanka. Fonterra, through the Anchor brand, probably has a stronger presence in the island nation than either rugby or McCaw, though it does have a small but strong rugby community. It is unclear what McCaw's visit did for Fonterra's branding, but it appears to have been inspirational for the national rugby team: a few days after his visit, Sri Lanka thrashed first Taiwan, then Thailand in the Asian Five Nations tournament, keeping alive its slim hopes of qualifying for the Rugby World Cup for the first time.
Attorney General and Associate Minister of Maori Affairs Chris Finlayson has proven to have a deft hand on treaty settlement issues, but his attempt to solve long-running problems with Maori land ownership might be too much even for him. His push to change the Te Ture Whenua Maori Act (an area of law last revamped in 1993 without much success) calls for Maori land use decisions to be "determined by a majority of engaged owners", with a way of resolving standoffs and disputes. Even more ambitiously, he wants to stop the "excessive fragmentation" of Maori land ownership. Others have tried and failed, leaving land capable of earning billions of dollars underused. A statement this week from Finlayson and Maori Affairs Minister Pita Sharples says the law covers 1.42 million hectares of land. Years of tradition and vested interests are at stake here, so if Finlayson pulls it off he will really have earned that QC title he got last year.
Some NZ executives' severance payments might seem excessive, but we've got nothing on Russia, where Vladimir Strzhalkovsky got about US$100 million (nearly $120 million) when he quit as the head of Norilsk Nickel, the country's biggest miner. Showing a deft PR touch, Strzhalkovsky, who was once employed by the KGB, said he'd give some of the money to families of intelligence agents killed in "hot spots".
Cabinet's globetrotter Tim Groser has continued his quest to lead the World Trade Organisation with a tour of the Caribbean. Nice work if you can get it, and his ministerial expenses declaration will make for interesting reading next time around, as Groser is known for his enjoyment of the finer things in life.
Moving with the times, regulators in the US this week decreed that Twitter, Facebook and other such services are appropriate places to make important company announcements. However the Securities and Exchange Commission said companies would have to say in advance which sites they would use, so investors know where to look - and presumably, in the case of older shareholders, to give them time to learn a few social-media skills.

From Treatment Compliance to Personal Choice
The CASD conducts research aimed at promoting choice and full engagement in services that help people with serious mental illnesses achieve their recovery goals. The CASD leads the field in the conceptualization, development, and dissemination of innovative research methods, analytic approaches, and interventions aimed at promoting self-determination and service participation.
Center Values and Principles
1) People in recovery have life goals like everyone else. People in recovery have the same life goals as other adults in their culture including enjoying comfortable housing, building intimate relationships, and developing meaningful careers. Attaining these goals is basic to a quality life.
2) Numerous traditional and non-traditional services and supports are available to help people achieve their goals. There are mental health services and supports which help people attain these goals; they include medication and a variety of community-based, psychosocial interventions. Also important are less traditional practices focusing on natural therapies, peer-based supports, and spiritual/artistic pursuits.
3) Shift paradigm from compliance to personal choice like anyone else. The primary and essential factor guiding service participation is self-determination. People choose whether services are appropriate for their specific goals, they determine the format of these services, and they consider when they have run their course. Self-determination extends beyond personal plans to include active consumer participation in the identification and development of traditional and alternative community-based programs used across a mental health system.
4) Involvement of those affected by the person's choices is highly valued, but ultimate choice remains with the person. The exigencies of other groups of stakeholders may be relevant; these may include nuclear or extended family, friends, or members of one's faith-based community. However, final decisions about life goals and related services and supports rest solely with the person.
5) Research process will parallel a self-determined service participation process. Research is considered in light of current sociopolitical systems and policies that may enhance self-determination but, more likely, will restrict it. Consistent with the Center's emphasis on self-determination, all CASD research will be conducted using the principles and practices of community-based participatory research, with people in recovery as essential agents in the process.
6) Develop the next generation of "Service Participation" researchers. In addition to carrying out research, the Center will train and mentor a next generation of investigators (including consumer investigators) to pursue research on these topics.
7) Research needs to result in usable and impactful products. Products of CASD research will inform advocates of all kinds. We especially intend to examine and/or develop specific strategies that enhance self-determination.

When it comes to gluten-free food, Udi's is a name everybody knows. They have trusted gluten-free products that taste great! Friends and family who don't live gluten-free can even enjoy them without a compromise in flavor. I have tried nearly every item in their line of delicious products and they really do a great job. recently I reviewed some new items. Here are my thoughts.
Salted Cashew Cookie- I am a HUGE fan of sweet and salty desserts so this was right up my alley. The sweet wasn't overpowering and was very well balanced on the palate with the touch of sea salt in the cookie. I liked the crunch and thought it would make an excellent base for cookie ice cream sandwiches.
Maple Pecan Chocolate Chip Cookie- This cookie screams fall flavors. It is great because just one bite fills you with the warmth of the season. You can practically hear leaves crunching under your feet. The chocolate chips provide that extra sweet morsel for those out there needing a little more. The maple and pecan marry very well together, creating a well balanced cookie.
Udi's Ancient Grain Chips- These crunchy chips are bold in flavor and can be enjoyed by adults and children alike. They are great on their own or with your favorite dip. They also come in a variety of flavors that are sure to please any eater.
Pepperoni Pizza- I LOVED this yummy pizza! I thought the flavor was great with it's nice herbs and great tasting pepperoni. This was easy to find in my local Whole Foods freezer section and was very simple to make. My kids and husband enjoyed it as well.
You can see my thoughts on other great products in my Udi's Friendsgiving post, Udi's new fall products or when I featured them in years past during this event. Not only does Udi's have amazing products but they have created the most wonderful online community for those who live gluten-free. Be sure to check out their awesome Pinterest boards, blog and even their community page.
So are you ready to win some Udi's gluten-free all for yourself?! Enter below…
*These are my opinions and my opinions alone. I was provided with product for review however I was not required to write a positive feature.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Does anyone know anything about this machine? its a hand crank, in very good condition. any idea of the value?
Interesting walking foot sewing machine. Links below with information for you.
Sweet Caroline
Value= what it's worth to you. No one can tell you that but you. http://www.ismacs.net/sewing_machine...ine_worth.html
Great looking machine, if I was closer and it was cheap enough, I'd get it, just because. LOL
I've seen that type of stamping on my 1912 New Home. So I'm guessing we might be talking about that era. The tension is very unusual. What type of needles does it take?
Where is the like button? I would add it to my collection!
Cute little machine. I saw two at the North Carolina ISMACS convention back in 2009. According to NeedleBar they were made from after WWII until around 1953/54. NeeleBar also says they were all that well made, nor does do they sew all that well.
"Most sewing machine problems are due to the carbon based unit in the chair in front of the machine"
I've heard that the Taylor Bird machines don't sew very well. I think I saw it on Alex Askaroff's website.

Guilty Pleasures of Social Networking
by Henry Elliss
I'm compiling a list of guilty pleasures we all secretly have when social networking – if I have missed any of your favourites, let me know and I'll update the list.
- Seeing your friends announce an exciting holiday to somewhere you've always wanted to go, then looking at their photos after and finding out the weather was terrible for most of the week.
- Finding out that all the beautiful people who were way out of your league in school are now average-looking, or better still, darn right plain.
- Adjusting your friend news feed setting for "relationship status" so that you can find out who has broken up / got together.
- Watching people's status updates and realising that you're not the only person who is staying in on a Saturday night to watch [insert trashy TV talent show here]
- Finally discovering what everyone thought they knew anyway – that camp guy from school was actually gay, even if he didn't realise it at the time.
- Denying friend requests from people you never really liked anyway, and hoping they don't notice.
- Finding out that the ravages of time have not been kind to your ex-boyfriend/girlfriend, or better still, they're still single.
- Finding out that the people who teased/bullied you in school now work for rubbish companies and still live at home with mum and dad.
- Finding out that the most unlikely couples have now got engaged/married.
- Comparing the number of friends you've got with work colleagues.
- Immediately checking out somebody's profile after you've met them, then judging them based on what you find out.
- Tagging people in photos that you just KNOW they're not going to approve, just so that their friends can see the photos for the few hours before they log in and notice.
- Finding out that other people's musical tastes are just as bad (sorry, eclectic) as yours.

UPDATE: Grand Rapids-Ionia man arrested for Pierson Township murder
PIERSON TOWNSHIP – An arrest has been made in the early Saturday morning murder of a Pierson Township woman.
According to the Montcalm County Sheriff's Office, a 29-year-old man from Grand Rapids and Ionia was arrested and is expected to be arraigned and charged Monday with open murder.
The man is described as being an acquaintance of the murder victim, Julie Danielson, 31, of Pierson Township.
Sheriff's officials responded to Danielson's home in the 4000 block of Whitefish Woods Drive in Pierson Township near Newaygo County after a 911 call reported an assault and an unresponsive person at 3:58 a.m. Saturday. Danielson was found dead in the home.
Undersheriff Mark Bellinger declined to release details about the cause of death or the motive for murder at this time. He did say Danielson's two young sons were not present when the murder occurred.
"The investigation led us to several counties tracking persons of interest and gathering evidence," Bellinger said. "We're still running down leads and continuing the investigation. It's been non-stop."
The murder suspect is expected to be arraigned and charged Monday in 64B District Court in Stanton.
