There has been a public/niche (?) clamouring for an Android netbook for some time now but it looks like the first mainstream device to step away from the smartphone category will actually be a swanky tablet...
The as yet unnamed and unseen device will be a twin product to the 'Archos 9 PCTablet' (pictured) but choose Android over the 9's Windows 7 OS. With Windows 7 not being released until 22 October the Inquirer reports we'll actually get our hands on the Android tablet first with a formal announcement in September.
Other details are thin on the ground. A smaller 5in screen (compared to the PCTablet's nine incher) will apparently be featured and it will be of similar proportions to the Archos 5 Internet Media Tablet. Telephony based Android devices are also in the works but whether that is as a range of smartphones or simply integrated into a tablet/MID we don't know at this stage.
Meanwhile the Archos 9 PCTablet itself will sport a familiar 1024 x 600 native resolution on a touchscreen display, a 1.3GHz Atom CPU and US15W chipset. 60GB and 120GB HDD options will be offered at £450 and £500 respectively.
Moving into more familiar PMP territory, the company has firmed up the 'Archos 3', 'Archos 2' and 'Clipper'. The 3 and 2 refer to their respective screen sizes (3in and 2in) while Archos' smallest device to date is just 20g and pitched at the shuffle sector. All use flash memory with the Clipper coming in at 2GB and the 3 and 2 both sporting 8GB. They'll launch in August for £19.99, £49.99 and £89.99.
Finally the company has confirmed the '10s' will replace the current Archos 10 netbook next month. The S is touted as the slimmest netbook to date measuring just 28mm at its thickest point. The 1.6GHz Atom CPU, 1GB RAM and 160GB HDD are all more standard. Both three and six cell battery editions will be available for £330 and £350 respectively. You don't need me to tell you which one is the better buy...
Update: An 'Archos 13' is now being launched to augment the Archos 10s as well. It has a 13in LED backlit 1280 x 800 pixel display, runs an Intel ULV CPU and (for some reason) has a smaller 120GB HDD while weighing in at 1.5Kg. A £550 price tag is mooted.

Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel will debut as the opening night film of the Berlin Film Festival on February 6, 2014. Anderson returns to the festival with this world premiere after his The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou and The Royal Tennenbaums ran there in competition in 2005 and 2002, respectively. Anderson shot Budapest Hotel, a UK-German co-production, in Gorlitz, Germany and other parts of Saxony, as well as at Studio Babelsberg in Potsdam. Berlin chief Dieter Kosslick said today, "We are very delighted… With unmistakeable Wes Anderson charm, this comedy promises to kick things off in a big way." The film recounts the adventures of a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune. Ralph Fiennes and Tony Revolori star with F Murray Abraham, Mathieu Amalric, Adrien Brody, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Jude Law, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, Saoirse Ronan, Jason Schwartzman, Tilda Swinton, Léa Seydoux, Tom Wilkinson and Owen Wilson. Fox Searchlight releases in the U.S. on March 7th.
Wes Anderson's 'Grand Budapest Hotel' To Open Berlin Film Festival In World Premiere
3 Comments
Enough of the same film over and over and over. Horrible, amateurish stuff.
Anderson is not amateurish. He's just an oil painter who creates on film. His camera work is a little tricky. It's simple, but not too simple. His production design is, by far, some of the most unique sets I've ever seen.
I do agree the clone casting is getting old. The monotone line deliveries becomes tedious after 3 films.
But in no way are the crew on his films amateurs. I'd love to have his art department.
How bad is this going to be? I hope it's "The Darjeeling Limited" bad. Soooooooo precious!

Ok, But Older Version Much Better
Posted by Tom
This newer 'airport safe' version of the better bdu belt has a plastic buckle, which has pluses and minuses over the previous metal one (unless you go through lots of airports i guess), but they now make the belt part with a very stiff nylon material. While the nylon may last longer, i much prefer the softer more cloth-like material of the previous version - it was much more comfortable to wear - so much so that i never use this belt anymore. Luckily i was able to get an older one before they changed it. I'll be writing spec-ops.

Has a very professional look about it. Very strong material. Fits all my pants. Can be used for other tasks. I have two, one desert tan, and one black. This is the only belt everybody should have.

Buy this belt. The 1.75 Inch one is great! It fits perfectly in your bud loops w/o sagging over. Also another great feature is that you do not have to take it off when you travel through airport security. The hard plastic buckle and nylon belt do not require removal for the tsa. So...Keep your pants on!
Best Belt Ever!
Posted by Matthew
If you want a excellent durable belt. This is the one to get. I must say it is the best belt i have ever owned. I do landscape work so this belt sees a lot action. Not to mention being out in the elements a good portion of the year. I live in northern california. I have had this belt for about 2 years or more and it is in just as good of shape as when i bought it. The only thing that is just starting to come loose is the spec-ops tag on it. Other wise the rest of the belt is in great shape. Also as far as i can tell i don't think it has faded in color at all. I have the od green one. I would definitely recommend this belt if you do a lot of outside physical work or just for casual wear. You wont regret it.
Yep, Better Bdu Belt
Posted by Louis
The belt webbing is much more substantial than the issue belt, so whatever you hang on the belt stays. It's much easier to adjust and stays adjusted all day. Looks good, too. A little pricie, but is well worth the price after you use it a few times.
Way Way Better Than Issue
Posted by Matthew
This belt is a lot better than the ones we were issued the buckle is easy to operate and a lot quieter it is a bit more expensive than the issue belt but it is worth the extra cost

NHRA: John Force, Cory McClenathan and Mike Edwards take wins at inaugural four-wide race
John Force won for the 128th time in his storied career on Monday afternoon by defeating daughter Ashley Force Hood, Ron Capps and Matt Hagan at the rain-delayed inaugural NHRA 4-Wide Nationals at zMax Dragway.
This is a little taste of history, and its great to be a part of it, Force said. This was special.
Force has now won at every track on the NHRA schedule except for Norwalk, Ohio.
In the other pro classes, Cory McClenathan beat Doug Kalitta by the slimmest of margins to win Top Fuel, and Mike Edwards got back on the winning track with a victory in Pro Stock.
Force, who talked all weekend about trying to figure out the modified staging procedure, was first off the line in the Funny Car final and roared to a 4.036-second pass at 316.23 mph in his Castrol Ford Mustang to beat runner-up Force Hood, who had a 4.042-second run at 316.38 mph in the Castrol GTX Mustang.
Winning that [final] was something, Force said. Racing Ron Capps is always tough. Racing Matt Hagan now that [former JFR crew chief] John Medlen is over there, thatll put the fear in you too, but racing my own daughter is the hardest part. Im really proud of Ashley because shes learned the game.
McClenathan, who won at Charlotte last fall, trailed Kalitta for 999 feet of the 1,000-foot race, but produced enough of a final burst of horsepower in the Fram dragster to pass Kalitta at the line and win by 15 ten-thousandths of a second.
When it comes to a specialty race, I want to win, and I wanted this bad, said McClenathan, who now leads teammate Tony Schumacher in the points. To come here and know you have something to win with, it makes you confident, and it puts that fire in you because you know you have to get the job done.
McClenathan ran a 3.820-second pass at 319.60 mph to Kalittas 3.825 at 316.60 mph in the Technicoat dragster. Antron Brown and Doug Herbert also ran in the final quad.
Edwards had a stellar 0.009-second reaction time to get a jump on finalists Jason Line, Bob Yonke and Greg Stanfield. Then he raced away in his Interstate Batteries Pontiac GXP to win with a 6.596 at 210.05 mph. After breaking a 12-race streak of qualifying on top of the class, Edwards posted the best ET of every elimination round to take his 23rd career win.

The People of the Abyss HTML version
The chief priests and rulers cry:-
"O Lord and Master, not ours the guilt,
We build but as our fathers built;
Behold thine images how they stand
Sovereign and sole through all our land.
"Our task is hard--with sword and flame,
To hold thine earth forever the same,
And with sharp crooks of steel to keep,
Still as thou leftest them, thy sheep."
Then Christ sought out an artisan,
A low-browed, stunted, haggard man,
And a motherless girl whose fingers thin
Crushed from her faintly want and sin.
These set he in the midst of them,
And as they drew back their garment hem
For fear of defilement, "Lo, here," said he,
"The images ye have made of me."
The experiences related in this volume fell to me in the
summer of 1902.
I went down into the under-world of London with an
attitude of mind which
I may best liken to that of the explorer. I was open to
be convinced by
the evidence of my eyes, rather than by the teachings of
those who had
not seen, or by the words of those who had seen and gone
before. Further,
I took with me certain simple criteria with which to

A very faithful farmer,
Planted a small seed,
Where in a distant field,
It grew into a tree.
This tree had leaves of laughter,
As it rustled in the wind,
Its sound of many whispers,
Were voices of many friends.
Its branches were far reaching,
Its limbs, like little hands,
That touched the lives of many,
As it grew upon the land.
Its flowers bloomed in sunshine,
-They were countless little smiles,
That offered joy to others,
If but only for a while.
For the Farmer who was helping,
His little tree grow tall,
Knew of a better orchard,
The best one of them all.
Se he placed His hands around the tree,
And lifted it with care,
He took it to an orchard,
Where He himself was near.
The tree had all the sunshine,
Its leaves were there to stay,
Its flowers bloomed in happiness,
Every single day.
The Farmer loved the little tree,
Far more than people knew,
Now it lives forever,
In our hearts and Heaven too.
-In loving memory of Charles McMichael

Installing metal building over unlevel concrete pad
I am trying to assemble a metal building on an 18x26 concrete slab. Once I began to assemble the building I discovered the slab is not level. As I was attaching the metal rails to the slab a gap began to form between the rails and the slab and got progressively worse as I moved further up the slab. At the end of the rail the gap is approximately 1 1/2" thick. How can I support the rails and attach them to the slab without causing the building to go out of square. I tried shimming with treated 2x4's but I am hoping there is a better way. Any suggestions
199 Attachment(s)
You might pour a small stem wall on the top of the slab to level things out.
pack it with compressive grout or rip long pt shims
Non Shrink Grout :thumbsup:
199 Attachment(s)
Don't know much about that, but 1 ½" of grout?
Do you think the grout would support the weight of the building? Unassembled the building weighed around 3400 lbs
Non Shrink Grout is commonly used under structural steel column base plates. It's also used in thickness up to 2".
I'd also think a little bit about doing wedge anchors, leveling plates and jamb nuts along with the grout, especially if the rails are really light gauge. That's how I'd do it. It's not something that we come across with the sheet metal building kits, but with equipment, tanks, pumps, steel columns, etc, leveling plates, jamb nuts, and NS grout are the way to go.
Also certain grouts can be extended out to 2.5 - 3 inches using pea gravel. The whole reason you want to limit the grout thickness is the heat that gets generated during the cure. Extending it with pea gravel helps because the pea gravel acts as a heat sink during curing. But you have to buy the right grout to go that thick.

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I also just look at their website and it is quite a site. It is worth the trip.
Definitely GO!!! I have been there. And the quilt shop was listed in one of the quilt magazines (can't remember which one) as one of the top ten quilt shops in the United States. I live about 1 hr. away and there is a group of us going. It is fantastic. Janome Sewing Machines is sponsering the quilt show. I plan on checkng out the new machines. LOL Marge
Oh, yeah-I would be all over a trip to that!! Reminds me of Sisters, OR (a show I would LOVE to attend!!). You definitely need to go and take LOTS of pics for those of us who are too far away!!
I wish I was a lot closer, I love the idea of quilts hung all over town, and its nice to see all ranges of quilting ability displayed :D
Looks like DH and I will be going (as long as it doesn't rain). I will try to take as many pics as I can. :D
Thank you for the info, very strange looking but yet beautiful. Just not used to seeing a hairless cat. Interesting about the allergies.Originally Posted by shellyp
:D Go, go ,go and then tell us all about it.....lol :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
I WISH I had a chance to go to this!!! Oh to live there and be a part of it would be even better! That is just so heart warming.

The Russian connection: See all our coverage | Read about our investigation
You may have missed it amid Newt Gingrich's ruminations on algae and the Romney-Santorum nail-biter in Ohio, but there was a Super Tuesday result with serious ramifications for progressive politics: In the Democratic primary in Ohio's 9th Congressional District, Rep. Marcy Kaptur knocked off Rep. Dennis Kucinich by double digits, putting the political future of one of Washington's loudest liberal voices in serious doubt. Again.
Kucinich, who sought the Democratic presidential nomination in 2004 and 2008 largely on an anti-war platform, was drawn out of his old Cleveland district during the state's redistricting process (the state lost two seats after the 2010 census), ending up in a primary against Kaptur, a 15-term Democratic incumbent. The resulting, excessively gerrymandered 9th district hugs Lake Erie, stretching from Toledo, where Kaptur lives, all the way to Cleveland, Kucinich's home. (Shira Toeplitz notes, "The district is connected by a bridge that's only 20 yards wide, as well as by a single beach at one point.") Kucinich took his best shots at Kaptur—alleging, for instance, that her campaign had illegally stolen all of his yard signs. But he faced a different set of voters, most of whom he'd never previously courted—and not even Russell Simmons could save him:
if you're in Ohio today, please go and vote for Dennis Kucinich! we cannot lose him.— Russell Simmons (@UncleRUSH) March 6, 2012
In his eight terms in Washington, Kucinich held down the far-left of the House Democratic caucus and built up his national profile in tandem. He famously called for the impeachment of President Bush and Vice President Cheney, then took things a step further last spring, suggesting that President Obama's imposition of a no-fly-zone in Libya might also be an impeachable offense. He held out for months on health care reform because of his support for the public option.
But while Kucinich's rhetoric has been unwavering, his record of accomplishments is relatively small. Kaptur is pro-life and votes accordingly, but otherwise holds fairly conventional liberal views for a Rust Belt Democrat. She's also never traveled solo to meet with Syrian president Bashar al-Assad, and then defended him to her hometown paper.
The question now is what Kucinich will do next. Over the course of his career he's demonstrated a remarkable ability to come back from crushing defeats. He lost three congressional races before he was 30, and was already a washed-up ex-mayor at 35. After moving to California for a brief period of soul searching, he ran unsuccessfully for two more statewide offices, moved to New Mexico for some more soul searching—and then came home and won a House seat. If believes he still has more work to do in Washington, the odds are pretty good he'll try to find a way to stay there.
Case in point: Before opting to stay at home last year, Kucinich publicly contemplated moving to Washington state to run for a seat there. In an interview with Politico last week, his campaign spokesman, Andy Juniewicz, pointedly refused to rule out the possibility that Kucinich might exercise the Evergreen option should he come up short against Kaptur. (According to Public Policy Polling, just 22 percent of Washington state Dems want Kucinich to run for office in their state.) He has until May 18 to declare his intentions. Who knows, we may not have seen the last of Dennis Kucinich.

Rotorua's BNZ has got behind The Daily Post Christmas Appeal for the Salvation Army foodbank.
It has set up a trolley in its branch at Rotorua Central mall for customers and other members of the public to donate non perishable food items to the appeal.
BNZ manager David Muir said they ran a similar collection last year and recently they held a cake stall for Rotorua 3-year-old Elliott Crimp who is recovering in Middlemore Hospital after being diagnosed with meningococcal C.
"Having food at Christmas is not that easy in today's economy. If we are able to provide a vehicle that enables people to donate then we are happy to do that,'' Mr Muir said.
The bank is also collecting donations of toys, books, stationery and soft toys for the children's ward at Rotorua Hospital.
Meanwhile, donations to The Daily Post Christmas Appeal for the Salvation Army foodbank can also be made at our Hinemoa St office between 8am and 5pm on weekdays. People can donate money or non-perishable food.
Food donations can also be made at the Salvation Army's Community Ministries at Community House on Haupapa St.

I love to design and make things – it's my passion! One day at work by boss showed me a picture of a kitchen knife he made completely from scratch and after that, I knew I had to make one. He said it was "one of the most rewarding things you can make!" – He was most definitely correct!
I had such an enjoyable time making this knife that I felt I should share it with you guys and hopefully persuade some of you to have a go yourself! Be warned, that this process is time consuming (took me about a month of on and off work)! However if you put the time in, you will most definitely see the reward!
Thanks for looking and I hope you find this useful! For further designs please check out my other Instructables and my website – www.philreillydesigns.com
I am currently working on a new minimalist ballpoint pen and stylus, check it out at: www.529studio.co.uk or follow me on instagram @529studio
All the best,
Step 1: Design the Knife (sketching)
At this stage, as well as designing how the knife will look, one of the main decisions that you need to make is how you are going to attach the handles to the knife. There are three main ways of accomplishing this; a full tang, a partial tang and a through tang. The knife that I decided to make has a full tang – the handle has the same profile as the tang, with 'slabs' fastened to each side by means of pins, screws, metal tubing, bolts, epoxy etc. A partial tang extends partially from the blade and is completely hidden within the handle body. A through tang is similar to a partial tang but extends all the way through the handle and is secured on the other end of the knife by a nut or rivet. You can decide which one you wish to make although this set of instructions will be covering the full tang method.
Once you have decided what design you wish to make, draw a 1:1 scale side profile on paper and cut it out, ready to be traced onto the steel. I have attached my drawing if anyone fancies having a go at that!
Step 2: Design the Knife (CAD - Optional)
Step 3: What You Will Need
• Sketched side profile of design
• A pair of Handle Scales (I used walnut)
• Brass block (for the bolsters)
• 4mm Brass Bar (for peening the bolsers to the blade)
• 2 x Corby Rivets
• A selection of sandpaper from coarse grit to as fine as you can get
• Hacksaw
• File
• Drill
• Rasp (for shaping the wooden handles)
• 4mm Drill bit for brass bar
• Appropriate drill bits for Corby Rivets (measure rivets with callipers)
• CCL wood finishing oil and wood sealant
• Rubbing compound (optional)
• Epoxy (I used Araldite)
• 2 sided sharpening stone
• Kitchen steel
There are lots of different steels that a knife can be made from. After doing lots of research I decided to make this one using 01 carbon steel. There are other steels such as stainless, D2 and Damascus (all having slightly different properties), but I would recommend 01. I made my blade using 4mm 01 carbon steel. If you order it in sheet form, it will usually come already annealed (but check before you buy!). Annealed basically means that the carbon atoms within the steel are arranged in such a way that makes the steel workable! Later in the process once the blade is shaped we will discuss hardening and tempering (making your blade fit for use!). The steel I used was ordered from a knife website that sold sheet metal for the amateur knife maker. A quick look on the internet and I'm sure you'll find many places that sell it.
As with the blade, there are lots of materials that the handles can be made from. I decided to use walnut slabs as I wanted a dark wood that had a nice grain pattern. You can use many materials for this including wood, bone, micarta, chord, stone and ivory. Many knife websites actually sell various knife scales already cut down to a reasonable size so it is worth having a look there for inspiration.
Step 4: Cutting and Shaping the Blade Profile
Step 5: Adding the Bevel
Step 6: Drilling and Finishing the Blade (first Time)
Before the blade is heat treated, it will need to be finished. This involves using sand paper to gradually sand out all of the marks created by the file and create a good finish. It is important not to skimp on this step so take time to make sure it is done correctly. Start on a rough grade of sand paper and begin sanding in the same direction. Once you have removed all the scratches and grooves, swap to the next finer grade of sandpaper. Continue with this grade until all the scratches and grooves are removed from the previous grade. This process should be repeated until you reach to the finest grade you have – around 1200 grit. If you have taken your time and not rushed it, you should have a completely flat blade.
It is important to make sure that the whole blade is sanded. Although the handle won't be seen as it will be covered by brass and wood, it is important that the areas where the blade meets the brass are completely flat. It is better to sand part of the blade that won't be seen than miss a patch that will be!
Step 7: Heat Treating the Blade
As this project was very important to me, I wanted to make sure that the hardening of the steel was done correctly so I sent it to a local hardening company and requested a hardening value of HRC56 Rockwell 56.
Many people choose to do this part of the process themselves and it usually requires a coal forge, a gas forge or an oxy-acetylene torch. There are lots of examples of this on the internet if you wish to have a go yourself. The picture attached is of a pizza oven I built and that a friend actually used to harden his steel knife! It was fun trying to get this thing hot enough but it worked in the end! For instructions on how to build a pizza oven, follow the link to my other Instructable – How to build a Pizza Oven.
Step 8: Finishing the Blade (second Time)
At this stage I used some car body rubbing compound on the blade. Follow the instructions on the bottle but it involves putting a little on a cloth and rubbing onto the blade until it has disappeared. Then use a clean cloth to rub off and buff out. This will give a nice satin finish to the blade.
Once the blade is finished, make a basic sheath from a folded piece of cardboard and tape around the blade. This will protect the blade from scratches whilst you attach the bolsters and the handle. It will also give you something safe to hold onto whilst completing the last few steps.
Step 9: Creating and Attaching the Bolsters
Take one of the bolsters and clamp it to the handle in the correct position. Using the same drill bit that was used to drill the bolster holes, drill though these as a guide and then through the brass. Put that bolster to one side and then drill through the other one. On the outside of each bolster you will want to put a small countersink in the hole. This is so that when the brass bar is peened, it has a little area to expand, thus gripping the bolster.
Cut two pieces of the 4mm brass bar so that when the bar is placed through the bolsters and the steel blade, there is about 5mm on either side.
Mix some of the epoxy and spread it on the areas where the bolster will be in contact with the blade. Try not to put too much on as when the brass is clamped together, the glue will be forced out. Place both bolsters onto the blade and push the brass bar though. It might be a little tight as the hole is exactly the same size as the bar so a little gentle encouragement with a hammer should do the trick.
When the brass bar is through both bolsters and the blade with equal distances on both side, lay the blade on its side on a hard metal surface. Ideally you would use an anvil for this but I just used the back of a metal vice instead. Take the peening hammer (with the semi-spherical dome head) and begin hitting the metal pin whilst it is supported underneath by the metal surface. Keep hitting the pin and turning the knife over so that both sides are worked equally. This will cause the end of the brass bar to mushroom and in doing so will grip the bolster. Once both sides of both brass bars are mushroomed, leave for 24 hours until the epoxy has fully cured.
Once the epoxy has cured, you can begin sanding down the brass bar until it is completely flush with the bolster. If you have done this step correctly, as shown in the picture, the brass bar should completely disappear and become invisible to the eye. If not, you will end up with a small circle on the side of the bolster but that is not the end of the world! You can use a file and begin filing to top of the brass so that it becomes flush with the blade and likewise on the bottom. I added a small radius to the edges using sandpaper. This gives a nice ergonomic look to the handle and takes away the harsh sharp edges.
Step 10: Attaching the Handles
Take one of the wooden slabs and clamp it onto the knife, making sure that it is tight up against all the metal faces. Using the same drill bit that was used to drill the hole for the middle of the Corby Rivet (the holes that you previously drilled through the handle), drill through the handle using the previous hole as a guide, and then through the wood. Repeat the exact same process for the other side of the handle. If you look at the side profile of the Corby Rivet, you will notice that it is shaped like an 'I'. The top and bottom of the rivet is actually wider than the middle. This means that another drill bit, larger than the last, but the same size as the top and bottom of the rivet needs to be used. This drill bit is used to form a shelf in the previous hole through the wood. This enables the rivets, when screwed in, to sit on the shelf and use that as a means of clamping the slabs together. There is a lot more detailed information out there on the internet about Corby Rivets if you fancy having a more detailed look!
Once the wooden slabs have been drilled so that they have a little shelf, you can screw in the rivets and just check that they fit ok. Once you are happy that they are good to go, apply some epoxy onto the steel handle and the side of the wood that is being glued. Place the wooden slabs in position and attach the rivets. You will notice that as you tighten the rivets, the slabs become compressed against the steel and begin forcing some glue out of the gaps. Do not over tighten the rivets as you could damage the wooden shelf but tighten them enough so that everything is tight. As the excess glue begins to seep out, wipe it away using a damp cloth.
As with the bolsters, allow for 24 hours or until the epoxy is completely dry before starting work on the shaping.
Step 11: Shaping the Handles
To shape the wood you can use any wood carving tool or file that you can find. I started with a normal file but quickly swapped to a rasp because it is a lot quicker to remove material! It is also quite good at removing the material from the brass rivets as well, so you can work both the wood and the brass simultaneously.
Keep removing material and shaping the handle to taste. As you begin to get close to the level of the brass bolster and steel handle, swap to a coarse piece of sand paper. This will help make sure that you get a nice even transition between the brass and the wood. I added a small radius to the edge of the wood to match the same radius that was on the brass bolsters. This creates continuity between the various components on the blade.
To finish the wood, complete the same steps as you did for finishing the blade. Start with coarse sand paper and begin working down the grades until you have created a nice smooth finish. It shouldn't take that long as wood is quite an easy material to work with!
Step 12: Finishing the Wooden Handle
Firstly take an old cloth and apply a little of the wood sealant. Carefully rub into the wood until all areas are covered. Leave the sealant to dry, roughly about 40 mins, and then sand back using a piece of 1000 grit. Repeat this process three times.
When applying the finishing oil, apply a little onto your index finger and gently rub it in circular motions into the wood. Once the entire wooden handle is covered, leave to dry – about 30 mins. Rub off the excess oil using your clean finger and then palm the wood. This involves rubbing the wood for about 20 seconds with your palm quite quickly so that it becomes warm. This helps to work in the oil. Once completed, leave for 24 hours to fully harden. Repeat this process three times and then the handle is fully finished!
Step 13: Sharpening the Blade
Firstly take the sharpening stone and place it on the table. If you have a double sided sharpening stone then one side will be coarser than the other. Place the coarser side upwards and lubricate with oil (mineral oil is usually recommended). Hold the knife at a 20 degree angle to the stone and scrape along the stone in a cutting motion making sure that no more force is applied than when you would butter a piece of bread! Keep alternating on each side of the blade until the blade begins to develop an edge. This sharpening motion will produce a nice 'V' shape that will enable a good sharp edge to be formed. Swap to the finer side of the stone and complete the same process, making sure you add more oil. You should be able to get the knife quite sharp by undertaking this process.
For a razor sharp edge, use the same 20 degree cutting motion on the kitchen steel. The sharpening stone shapes the edge of the blade but the kitchen steel does something a little different. Rather than removing material, it produces a very fine metal burr along the edge that will be very sharp.
To test the sharpness of the blade you can hold a piece of paper in one hand and use the blade to cut through it. If the blade is not sharp enough then the paper will just rip. If you have achieved a sharp edge then you should be able to cut the paper into fine little strips!

stwallack brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 89 Designs von 15 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
Design a logo for a new product. This product slips over the top of dog and cat canine teeth.
to see the actual product
The Original Yami Marker
- This is a pet product used to mark teeth for dogs and cats. I would like the entire name of the product in the logo "The Original Yami Marker" but am open to other interpretations.
Thanks and good luck.
- (optional) the area under the m in Yami should look like a dog molar (this is a certain tooth in the dogn's mouth).
- Very good to include since it adds the registered trademark insignia within the logo- the i in Yami should have a shaded cap (similar to a thimble) with an R on top. These are tooth markers that cap the teeth. The R on top of the I can also double as the sign for a registered trademark.
- Should be able to fit on a piece of paper 2.5 inches tall x 2.75 inches wide.
- Really don't want dog and cat images since that is very cliche in the veterinary world.

A few weeks ago our flight from Bangkok was late. It did not arrive on Phuket until after midnight. With no meter taxis available, we had to deal with the several private taxis that were hassling us for business.
Their fares to Kata were 1,800 baht upwards. We normally pay between 500 and 700 baht, but we finally had to accept the offer of a taxi who also wanted to give his friend a lift home.
Before setting off, the driver's friend intended to sit in the front seat on top of our suitcase since there was no room elsewhere to sit. We said "no" and off we went without him.
Our taxi driver drove at 140 kilometers per hour all the way, including through red lights, until he finally stopped to buy gas, at which point I told him to slow down.
He did, and only drove at 120kmh while sending a text message to someone.
I also noticed a car license plate in the seat pocket in the back. Maybe he was now using his private license plate?
Is there any control at the airport on who gives you a ride after office hours? What action do the Phuket officials recommend we take if our flight is delayed next time we come to Phuket?
We are working with the authorities to get rid of illegal taxis operating from the airport. Until that time, I suggest that you use careful judgment before getting into any car.
Recently, the regulations for taxis were changed. Now legal taxis must display stickers on both sides of the vehicle detailing the taxi's number, owner's name in English and Thai, and the complaint phone line number: 1584.
If you believe you have been badly treated or overcharged, you can call either 1584 or the Taxi Meter Association on 076-202171 and make a report.
Our company operates a taxi service at the airport from 7am to 1am daily. Outside of those times there may be taxis around, but it is not guaranteed.
You can recognize our company's drivers by their dress. They wear white shirts and black trousers.

What you can order online are the accessories for the tablet which includes a dock for the XOOM that costs $49.99. The dock offers a separate speaker for enhanced audio, and features an adapter plate and an AC wall power supply. Other extras include a $39.99 portfolio case and a Bluetooth wireless keyboard. This full-sized QWERTY, priced at $69.99 is powered by two AA batteries and will work on most of Motorola's Android offerings.
The last accessory offered by Best Buy and available to be ordered online is the HD Speaker Dock for $129.99. With Noise-Canceling technology, sound is improved. The dock also allows your XOOM to make hands-free video chats with the Speakerphone mode.
Of course, there is no sense in ordering the accessories online now unless you go into one of the big box stores and pre-order the Motorola XOOM in person. Anyone planning on spending their Sunday at Best Buy?

WTO Deal Buys Trade Talks Time to Craft Broader Deal
The Obama administration lauded an agreement on trade rules struck by the World Trade Organization, while analysts said the deal may do more to salvage broader WTO talks than solve food shortages and help global commerce.
The draft deal unveiled yesterday in Bali, Indonesia, was the first multilateral agreement negotiated by the WTO's 159 member nations. It emerged after the U.S. and India compromised on food subsidies and a Latin American bloc led by Cuba dropped its opposition to an agreement.
A successful deal may add $1 trillion to the world economy, according to supporters among business groups.
"The WTO's Bali agreement also represents the rejuvenation of the multilateral trading system that supports millions of American jobs and offers a forum for the robust enforcement of America's trade rights," President Barack Obama said today in a statement.
Humanitarian advocates, though, said the accord produces few gains for the poor, while farm groups in the U.S. -- the world's biggest agricultural exporter -- had little reaction. Still, the accord may help extend talks on the Doha Round of trade negotiations, which have dragged on for 12 years and stalled over agriculture, industrial tariffs and services.
Buys Time
"A successful Bali buys the WTO time to prove that multilateral trade talks can be productive on a regular basis and in a timely manner," said Terence Stewart, a trade lawyer based in Washington, in an e-mail yesterday. "The risk is that members will not address the underlying issues that have crippled the organization's ability to respond to the changing business environment."
The Bali agreement was part of a once-every-two-years ministerial conference at which WTO members may make decisions on issues of common concern. In the Doha Round of talks, begun in 2001, negotiators are seeking major revisions to the international trading system, including lower tariffs.
The deal reached in Bali lets India and other developing nations continue to subsidize their crops to bolster food security without having to worry about legal challenges, so long as the practice doesn't distort international trade, according to a draft text. The U.S. and other members of the Geneva-based WTO would retain the right to file a complaint if subsidized goods are sold in global markets and depress prices or harm competitors.
Subsidy Reporting
The accord also will require India to provide more reporting of its farm-subsidy programs or face potential trade-dispute challenges. It includes provisions to reduce paperwork requirements at some borders, a step sought by shippers including FedEx Corp. (FDX) and United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS)
U.S. officials and business groups said the accord points the way toward more progress on world trade.
The agreement "takes important steps" to address farm-trade issues while pushing toward a broader agricultural agreement, the U.S. Trade Representative's office said in a statement yesterday.
The deal "is a giant step forward for businesses large and small in expediting the movement of goods globally and reducing unnecessary paperwork," said Scott Davis, UPS chairman and CEO, in a statement.
Obama, in the White House statement, said the accord will eliminate red tape and bureaucratic delays in shipping goods around the world.
'Biggest Winners'
"Small businesses will be among the biggest winners, since they encounter the greatest difficulties in navigating the current system," Obama said.
On the other hand, the agreement falls short as a tool to lift the living standards for much of the world's poor, a stated goal of Doha negotiations, said Romain Benicchio, senior policy adviser with Oxfam, a global humanitarian organization.
"The Bali package is hardly going to make a difference for poor countries, but at least it keeps the negotiations on food security alive," he said in a statement. "Negotiators now have to find a long-term solution to change the rigged rules that stand in the way of developing countries' food security policies."
The trade organization's supporters said the agreement's significance goes beyond specifics involving farm goods.
"I don't think it's an exaggeration to say that today we have saved the WTO," European Union Trade Commissioner Karel de Gucht said in a report from Bloomberg BNA.
Farm Issues
Indonesian Trade Minister Gita Wirjawan, chairman of the Bali talks, said the agreement puts the entity "back on the center stage of trade negotiations."
Agriculture is traditionally one of the toughest areas to negotiate because of its importance to nearly every nation, and "any indication there's goodwill and mutual trust in the agricultural negotiations is important," said Jim Grueff, a former U.S. agricultural trade negotiator, in a telephone interview.
The agreement, while not perfect, will help bring more transparency to commodity markets, said Tom Sleight, president and chief executive officer of the U.S. Grains Council, a group that promotes exports for U.S. corn, barley and other products. More importantly, he said, it showed the viability of the WTO.
"We did not want to see the WTO go down in flames on this," he said. "The world needs the WTO. Every other trade agreement relies on the disciplines of the WTO."

The number of manufacturing jobs in Northland has fallen by more than 28 per cent in less than five years, a sign that there were no plans to lift the region's economy, Labour leader David Shearer says.
Last year Labour, the Greens, New Zealand First and Mana launched a parliamentary inquiry into the condition of New Zealand's manufacturing sector and this month released a report that included a series of recommendations to get New Zealand's manufacturing sector growing again. The inquiry found that 40,000 manufacturing jobs had been lost since December 2008.
Statistic NZ's Household Labour Force Survey shows that in December 2008 there were 6600 manufacturing jobs in Northland, but that had dropped to 4700 by the end of March this year, a 28.7 per cent fall.
Mr Shearer said that was one of the largest drops in the country and something needed to be done to improve conditions for manufacturing in Northland.
He said to do that Labour would implement the recommendations from the inquiry report, including adopting a national procurement policy that favours Kiwi-made and ensures that New Zealand manufacturers enjoy the same advantages as their international competitors; research and development tax credits; a fairer and less volatile exchange rate through reforms to monetary policy; refocusing capital investment into the productive economy, rather than housing speculation and lowering structural costs such as electricity prices.
Mr Shearer said it was false economy for the Government or local bodies to give a contract to an overseas or out-of-town firm just on the basis of cost.
"It might be cheaper, but in the long term you end up paying much more. If the local firm gets it the money will be spent in this country, the tax on the earnings will be paid to the country and the flow-on effects will go into your local economy and not into an overseas one," he said.
"For every job a local contract crates directly, there are up to five other jobs created downstream. Also, jobs lost [by the contract going to an overseas firm] means possibly having to pay benefits to those who lose jobs. We will ensure the Government looks local before it buys overseas."
Improving conditions for manufacturing in the regions would also prevent people leaving to go to big cities or overseas to look for work, he said.
Northland Chamber of Commerce boss Tony Collins said it was hard to say exactly where the manufacturing job losses came from as there had been no major manufacturer closing down in the region during that time, unlike in other regions.
"Some of them may be from the marine industry that has had a bit of downturn in recent years, but I suspect it's a lot of small to medium enterprises that employ five to 15 people. For those people it may have been death by a thousand cuts," Mr Collins said.
A lot of work was done by organisations in the region to improve job opportunities, but it was correct to say giving council work to local companies was good for the local economy.
Mr Collins said while the recent Northland Events Centre construction job went to an Auckland firm millions also went to local sub contractors.

Army Cap - Berets - Newsboy
Inspired by military attire, the army cap shape has became popular fashion trend in recent years. With stars like Eminem regularly seen rocking the style, it's no wonder the look has taken off in recent years. The army cap provides a nice break from the traditional baseball cap that is a bit less casual and a little more fashionable. We offer a great selection of army caps from some of the finest headwear brands like Kangol and Bailey of Hollywood.
The beret is a military style that has evolved into a high fashion accessory! Look like a Parisian model by wearing one in a more traditional manner, or give your look an artsy aspect by wearing one in a more relaxed, slouchy tilt. Whatever you're going for, the beret is a versatile style that can help you attain your desired image.
Newsboys feature a paneled design -typically 8 panels on the crown- that give the cap a flat, wide look reminiscent of classic golfers and "newsies" from the first half of the twentieth century. These caps usually have a button on top and a small brim jutting from their front. Aside from solid colors, Newsboys often come in traditional patterns like tweed and plaid. Shop our brands like Bailey of Hollywood, Kangol, Borsalino, and Goorin Brothers to get that perfect old school look!

As mentioned in the thread back in 2005, the first step would be submitting etcnet to for inclusion as a Fedora package. That can happen independently of whether or not discussions of replacing network-scripts happens, and what the outcome of them are. FWIW, I'd quite like to see etcnet in the repo as an alternative, so if you want some help packaging it, drop me a line. That said, the thing that is very unappealing to me about its design is the multitude of configuration files distributed over several subdirectories. That's subjective though. Jonathan.

The mystery on why people didn't smile in old portraits – revealed!2013-09-24 1 9 Share Tweet
Apparently, it's more of a case of etiquette than having bad teeth.
We've already learned that centuries ago, only the privileged and the rich have their portraits painted or shot. We've also been able to see portraits from these ages, and have thus observed that people usually don't smile at all!
Writer and artist Nicholas Jeeves, in an extensive article titled, The Serious and the Smirk: The Smile in Portraiture revealed that such people used to take on either of these two facial expressions when having their portraits done: a serious one, or a smirk.
According to him, smirking is a "subtle and complex facial expression [that] may convey almost anything." On the other hand, people do a serious pose because of – surprise, surprise – eventual discomfort brought by holding a pose for so long. Obviously, it would be extremely uncomfortable and even painful for the subject to hold a smiley pose for hours, or even repeatedly for days until the portrait is finished, so they opt not to.
Also, believe it or not, there had been a time when smiling broadly in general– something so common and pleasant these days – was said to be done only by "the poor, the lewd, the drunk, the innocent, and the entertainment."
As French priest and reformer St. Jean-Baptiste De La Salle wrote in "The Rules of Christian Decorum and Civility of 1703,"
There are some people who raise their upper lip so high… that their teeth are almost entirely visible. This is entirely contradictory to decorum, which forbids you to allow your teeth to be uncovered, since nature gave us lips to conceal them.
Can you believe that!
Jeeves also debunked the notion that people those days had really bad teeth so they didn't smile. "…bad teeth were so common that this was not seen as necessarily taking away from someone's attractiveness," he wrote.
He went on to discuss how portraits were "never so much a record of a person, but a formalised ideal. He then quoted American author Mark Twain,
A photograph is a most important document, and there is nothing more damning to go down to posterity than a silly, foolish smile caught and fixed forever.
It's good to learn about such rigid practices and viewpoints for when taking a portrait during the olden days, but thank God we didn't live during those times!

Eurosport only has live audio.
Eurosport only has live audio.
Try this. www.fastweb.it/streaming/raispsort.asx
The ladies free is not being televised there yet. Not sure when the coverage will be picked up. In the Ladies SP I want to say they started coverage about half way through. I just have the site open and keep checking.
I have a cable modem connection, but it still comes through like a series of still photos rather than real live action. Hopefully it will work faster for you. At least it's something!
The coverage is not in English (the only language I speak) so I turn the sound down on the video and tune to Eurosport for the audio coverage.
Happy Hunting!
Ditto. I listen to Eurosport and keep checking raisport. I saw a schedule, and if I read it correctly, they don't plan to televise ladies until 10PM, Italian time.
Currently available for downloading on SOMEBODYELSESLIFE are the top 4 ladies-sp.
That link doesn't work. I was soooooo disappointed with ABC coverage of the men (they didn't show Lambiel! He got 4th!) that even a series of slow pictures would be better. Yes, I've got cable modem...

On occasions my activities during my time awake find their way into my dreams.
At a friends livery yard yesterday as they put two horses in for the night, transpired into the first part of slumber.
Fairly normal to start as I put the horses in but to save on space I shrink them to fit in the palm of my hand and then place them on a square of artificial grass complete with miniature fencing and miniature stable.
I then notice 4 pint cartons of milk sitting outside in the sun. Opening a fridge to place them inside, I notice it's very full and the only space appears to be the vegetable tray at the bottom.
I pull open the tray to find a Badger inside. Attempting to put the milk inside becomes impossible as the Badger runs up and down the tray preventing me from filling up his bed.
The final part involves me walking onto some kind of military training base.
I go into a room, open a small locker within a bank of many other lockers with a key and remove a tin of pepper spray.
When I shut the locker and step back I notice that the lockers are the exact shape of a map of the British Isles.

Learn Haskell in 10 minutes
From HaskellWiki
1 Overview
Haskell is a functional (that is, everything is done with function calls), statically, implicitly typed (types are checked by the compiler, but you don't have to declare them), lazy (nothing is done until it needs to be) language. It's closest popular relative is probably the ML family of languages.
The most common Haskell compiler is GHC. You can download GHC from http://www.haskell.org/ghc/download_ghc_661.html. GHC binaries are available for Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS, Windows, and Solaris. Once you've installed GHC, you get two programs you're interested in right now: ghc, and ghci. The first compiles Haskell libraries or applications to binary code. The second is an interpreter that lets you write Haskell code and get feedback right away.
2 Simple Expressions
You can type most math expressions directly into ghci and get an answer.Prelude>
16Strings are in "double quotes." You can concatenate them with
"Hello, Haskell"
Calling functions is done by putting the arguments directly after the function. There are no parentheses as part of the function call:Prelude>
3 The Console
I/O actions can be used to read from and write to the console. Some common ones include:Prelude>
Hello, HaskellPrelude>
2 + 2 = 4Prelude>
ABCDE 12345Reading can be done with
4 16
(The 4 was input. The 16 was a result.)There is actually another way to write
main = do putStrLn "What is 2 + 2?" x <- readLn if x == 4 then putStrLn "You're right!" else putStrLn "You're wrong!"
4 Simple Types
So far, not a single type has been mentioned
