Betabeat arrived at the Classic Car Club on Hudson and Spring just after 8 p.m. last night, where a group of about 60 entrepreneurs were milling about the Bentleys and Ferraris, sipping Bulldog London dry gin and Innis + Gunn Oak Aged beer, some of which had been sitting in ice in the back of one of the antique vehicles–was it a Porsche 911?
Most of the founders present knew about as much about cars as we did. The crowd skewed tech–Betabeat ran into Roger Wu, organizer of the Stamford Tech Meetup; Zeb Dropkin, currently working on a crowdsourced rent database; Andy Thompson of Fast Society, who was there with a friend; Noah Dinkin of Fanbridge, who was on his way to the opera; and the jet-setting Courtney Boyd Meyers of The Next Web, who of course uses her Founderscard for discounts on hotels and airlines. The dress code varied–some came in suits–but the most common outfit was that independent CEO standby of collared shirt + jeans + blazer + dress shoes. They were there because they were all members of an exclusive group–well, somewhat exclusive– savvy enough to own the gray, metallic, indie analog of AmEx Black for the self-employed, Founderscard.
Founderscard founder Eric Kuhn was in and about the crowd in a dark blazer and light blue collar. He started the company after the rollercoaster ride of his first company, VarsityBooks, which he launched in the dot-com era, grew to 225 employees, raised a bunch of cash and had an IPO, then got delisted from the NASDAQ six months later when the market crashed. He whittled the company down to 14. He was able to turn it around by pivoting the business to work with schools instead of selling discounted textbooks directly to students, and got re-listed and sold the company three years ago.
"I remember during our IPO roadshow, we were staying at these crazy nice hotels using rates our investment bankers had," he said. "And I remember thinking, this is crazy, founders should be the ones getting these rates."
Now Founderscard offers discounts such as 10 percent off your AT&T bill and 10 percent off American Airlines flights plus "elite" status. Mr. Kuhn pitches Founderscard to potential partners by pointing to the value of the American entrepreneur and how hard that customer is to reach. "The pitch is that they can reach Goldman Sachs fairly easily by picking up the phone. We're offering access to the founders whose companies are average size of 15 to 20 and the growth trajectory of some of those companies gives someone like American Airlines an opportunity to get in with rockstar tech founders."
For the founders, many said the card's events were as much of a draw as the discounts. David Tannenbaum, a mobile app developer, joined a few months ago, after he went to a Founderscard event as a guest and ended up meeting someone he's now working with–the CEO of Roboinvest, a New York-based social investing startup.
Ines Peschiera, founder of the design agency Bell & Whistle, was impressed at the quality of the organization. "I think [Mr. Kuhn] must have picked the right people to start the club in the beginning," she said. She's been a member for a year, and the composition of the Founderscard parties has changed, she said. "It's night and day," she said. "It used to be the real tight-knight New York tech scene." Now the crowd is more diverse, she said, which she appreciates.
The crowd is usually about 100 to 160 people, Mr. Kuhn said. We counted about 50 who were still lingering when we left. (Side note: we'd give the finger food an A.)
Betabeat met the Lichtensteins, a couple–he a filmmaker, she a playwright–who have been Founderscard members for about four months. Mark Lichtenstein passed around a card with a QR code on it. "I can trust people here to know what that is," he said.
Mr. Lichtenstein, in addition to being a filmmaker, is also an amateur magician as well as a veteran of ABC. "A bunch of people at ABC were also magicians," he said. "I know, isn't that weird? When we had downtime we'd just all sit around and talk about magic."
He's pursuing a venture in producing magic shows for television, since that art form needs work. "Usually it's a magician shooting who doesn't know anything about cameras, or a cameraman who doesn't know anything about magic," he explained.
As the night drew to a close, Mr. Kuhn gave his spiel about the loneliness and the glory of being an entrepreneur, and how those founders deserve corporate benefits just the same way Goldman Sachs employees do. Applause.
Then one of the Classic Car Club representatives drew business cards out of a bowl in a raffle for five day passes to that members-only organization. "My speech is simple," he said. "This is the Classic Car Club. If you're in the club, you can drive all of these cars."

Hi there,
We're having some new TVs installed in our office (3 of them) - they'll be used for server status / traffic dashboards etc.
We'd like to know if there's any software out there that can run on Ubuntu and control all 3 of our screens instead of having to keep a keyboard and mouse plugged into the box?
Thanks in advance!
Lots of stuff in that arena, but your question is real nebulous.
Personally, I'd probably get one of those mini wireless keyboard / trackball combos. ioGear comes to mind as they have a pretty nice one that I think runs on ubuntu.

STORRS -- The stage was all set for a coronation.
The student section inside Gampel Pavilion was already on board to be involved in a post-game celebration honoring the UConn women's basketball program's 100th straight home victory. Tiffany Hayes would walk off the court she has called her home away from home for the last four years still undefeated and the second-ranked Huskies would move one step closer to another Big East regular-season title.
There was one slight problem. St. John's had not approved the script.
The only celebrating on Saturday night was being done by the Red Storm players, who ended the Huskies' NCAA women's basketball home winning streak at 99 games with a hard-fought 57-56 win before a crowd of 9,552.
Shenneika Smith's 3-pointer with 8.1 seconds to play, just her fourth trey of the year, put the Red Storm in the lead. Then sophomore Bria Hartley's 3-pointer from the right corner was no good. As a couple of the Huskies tumbled to the court in disbelief, the St. John's players raced to center court to revel in the historic moment.
"If that last shot (by Hartley) goes in, we are here talking about 100 in a row, isn't that great," UConn coach Geno Auriemma said. "But realistically St. John's outplayed us today. They did what they wanted to do better than we did what we wanted to do, so it was a fitting end for them. It was lousy for us, but fitting for them."
The loss was UConn's first to an unranked team at home since 1993.
Stefanie Dolson, who struggled all game long, corralled a loose ball with St. John's looking for the go ahead basket in the final minute and then converted in the lane with 34.3 seconds left to give UConn the 56-54 lead.
St. John's had the ball with 16.5 seconds left and worked the ball to Smith on the right wing. The Red Storm had just one 3-pointer at that point, but Smith converted for the 17th lead change of the game.
"I hadn't made any shots, but if I was going to make one, this was going to be the one and it was," Smith said.
"I said to the staff at the time, should we go for the win here or should we go for the tie?" St. John's coach Kim Barnes Arico said. "Why not go for the win? We had Da'Shena on the open (post) up, so if we didn't hit Shenneika we were going to go inside to Da. She wanted it."
�UConn had fouled twice leading up to the final shot but were hoping to run more time off the clock before committing its sixth and final foul of the second half.
"We made a mistake on the second foul," Auriemma said. "Bria got a little overanxious. That is not where we wanted the foul to come and when we wanted it to come. The very last possession it was the same play they have been running the whole game. The kid goes out to the 3-point line, Kiah (Stokes) almost got there in time. She was just a tad late and the kid makes her fourth 3 of the year. We shouldn't be in that situation. I thought St. John's put us in that situation the way they played. I thought they played great."
As was the case with losses to Baylor and Notre Dame, UConn's defense gave the Huskies a chance to win, but the lack of sustained offense prevented them from closing the game out.
"We couldn't get into any kind of rhythm, we couldn't finish and we couldn't knock down any kind of shots," said UConn senior Tiffany Hayes. "I think sometimes they made us rush a little bit, but I think it was us, and we couldn't get stuff done.
"You never want to lose especially at home on a day like this."
Hayes was referring to Senior Night and being honored for playing her final game at Gampel Pavilion. She had been 70-0 in her four years before Saturday night.
Stevens and McKenith led the Red Storm (18-8, 10-3 in the Big East) with 15 points each.
Mosqueda-Lewis led UConn (24-3, 11-2) with 12 points, but 11 came in the first half. Hartley had 10 while Stokes had 11 points and three blocks.
NAIA powerhouse Southern Nazarene, which won 122 straight home games in the late 1980s and into the 1990s, is the only women's basketball team with more than 100 straight home wins.
UConn stormed out of the gate, hitting five of its first six shots, two coming from Kelly Faris to take an early 11-3 lead.
However, the Huskies promptly missed its next five shots and had five turnovers to allow the Red Storm to rip off the next 12 points. Stevens, a former Trinity Catholic star, had six points while Eugeneia McPherson, a former high school teammate of Hartley, had four points.
A key to the run was Dolson picking up her second foul while reaching in after failing to secure an offensive rebound. When Dolson checked out with 15:01 left to play, UConn was leading 11-5.
Stokes came in and immediately had a blocked shot and made all three of her first-half shots, but Dolson was the one player the athletic but undersized Red Storm doesn't have an answer for defensively.
UConn answered back as a jumper by Hartley followed by a 3-pointer by Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis put UConn back in front. When Hartley hit a jumper in transition, the Huskies led 27-21 with 5:11 to play in the half.
Stevens sandwiched baskets around a steal and layup by McKenith to tie the game at 27. Mosqueda-Lewis added her second 3-pointer of the half and 66th of the season to put UConn back in front. St. John's ended the half on a 7-2 run, culminating by McKenith's buzzer-beating 3-pointer to put the Red Storm up 34-32. It was the first time UConn has trailed at the half this season.
Hayes was honored along with seven senior student managers before the game. She moved into sole possession of 10th place by playing in her 143rd game. She also ranks in the top 10 in minutes played, 3-pointers made and minutes played while ranking 12th in points scored, assists and steals.

Order Wine
2007 Chardonnay Tete de Cuvee
terroir Series
Sold Out
Bright and golden pale straw colour. Very elegant nose of lemons, yellow grapefruit and a wet stone, chalky minerality. A rich and powerful palate shows beautiful purity of fruit with well-integrated oak and smokiness. The 2007 Tête de Cuvée Chardonnay has great length and excellent aging potential.
Winemaker's Comments
We exposed all bunches to sunlight at fruit set with leaf removal on both sides of the canopy to maximize fruit ripening. Green harvest was performed at the first sign of véraison and we left only the best bunches that were well exposed to sunlight to promote fruit ripening, concentration of flavors and the expression of the Beamsville Bench terroir. The grapes were handpicked, sorted and gently whole bunch pressed. The juice was cold settled for 48 to 72 hours and then racked off, warmed and then transferred to the barrels for fermentation. The wine was fermented with native yeasts, with ferments being allowed to reach 24-26 degrees Celsius. Lees were stirred weekly during ageing. The wine was blended in December 2008 and aged in stainless steel until bottling. The wine was not filtered before bottling.

CloudBees has rolled out ClickStarts and ClickStacks to help it take on Google, Microsoft, VMware, Amazon, and Red Hat on platform clouds.
The new tools will help customers build custom development environments, reports Wired Enterprise's Klint Finley:
One downside to using platform clouds is that they can be rigid. It's easier to get started on a platform cloud as opposed to an infrastructure cloud such as Amazon Web Services — which merely offers access to raw computing resources, such as virtual servers — but a platform cloud also provides less flexibility. And with Amazon now offering its own platform-ish service called Elastic Beanstalk, more cloud providers are trying to bridge the gap between infrastructure clouds and platform clouds. CloudBees is the latest to try to solve this problem.
ClickStarts are essentially templates. Users will be able to define a particular architecture and save it to use in future projects — or pick from several pre-built templates. ClickStacks go even further by allowing users to add additional development languages and tools to their CloudBees environment, including alternative Java Virtual Machine langauges like Scala and Clojure.
CloudBees may be an underdog, but it does have some other key advantages. First, the team's background. Labourey was steeped in Java during his eight years at JBoss, starting as the general manager of JBoss Europe, rising to the ranks of CTO and eventually co-managing JBoss after it was acquired by Red Hat in 2007.
And in 2010, CloudBees acquired another Java platform cloud called Stax Networks, which was founded by WebSphere co-founder Spike Washburn. In other words, CloudBees has some deep expertise in Java, particularly in the unglamorous but important area of middleware. But it's not like Oracle, IBM, and Red Hat don't have plenty of Java expertise as well. Fortunately, CloudBees has more going for it than that.
The CloudBees team also has strong ties to open source community through development and support of Jenkins, an open source tool that helps developers make sure common code bases constantly stay in sync and tested. CloudBees employs Kohsuke Kawaguchi, the lead developer of an open source project called Jenkins, and it offers an enterprise version of the application.
Adron Hall, a developer of the open source platform cloud IronFoundry, told Finley: "Cloudbees has been and continues to be at the forefront of developer thought leadership and technology around continuous integration and delivery in the Java landscape. Sometimes CloudBees and Jenkins actually make me want to write Java again."

Like many people I watched the documentary film Super Size Me and was amazed at the effect that Spurlock's 30-day McDonalds only diet had on him. It nearly killed him! What a dude for performing such an experiment! Stick it to the man! etc…
About a year later I turned on my television to see him hosting this vile show called I Bet You Will, where he hangs around college campuses and offers idiot students 20 bucks to eat their own vomit or perform other such stupid gross-out activities. I couldn't reconcile how this dude with principles could involve himself in such execrable nonsense.
Until now. Brian Dunning of Skeptoid talks about follow up studies that did not demonstrate anything like the effect that Spurlock claimed in the movie, and busts a few myths about evil fast food vs regular normal food. It's not that fast-food is particularly good for you; merely that if you can resist the urge to force-feed yourself then it's really not [necessarily] so bad for you either.
Just for the singles…
This was a lot funnier in my head…
Don't believe the spider lies!
One of the things frequently discussed in New Zealand is the absence of nasty spiders that can kill you. Australia is of course notorious for having spiders, jellyfish, snakes and even ants that can kill you in abundance. But New Zealand is safe, as in, roll-around-in-the-undergrowth-and-fear-nothing-more-than-a-bit-of-itchiness safe. At least that's what they tell you here.
Well say hello to my leedle friend…
I met him while putting on my pants this morning. More specifically, he was in my pants while I was pulling them on. At first I thought he was a scrunched up ATM receipt, but as he fell to the floor with a rather obvious thunking sound I looked down to see this evil little flurry legging it across the carpet. So, after saying a quick morning prayer– Jesus Fucking Christ! – I grabbed an empty jar and caught the bugger.
Now I just have to work out if he is the kind of spider whose venom causes paralysis leading to asphyxiation, or merely the common-or-garden necrotizing flesh wound variety.
UPDATE: Oh alright it's just a stupid house/window spider. But it is a big one!
Things to which people should be listening
On Sex – My favorite podcast by a mile these days is Dan Savage's Savage Lovecast (iTunes link). It is joyfully vulgar, funny, honest, sometimes heart-breaking and generally eye-opening. It answers questions I'd never even thought to ask and routinely makes me laugh out loud on my way to work. Of course it also reminds me of all the fun I'm missing out on right now, what with my relatively ascetic lifestyle [ascetic means "not getting any"].
On Skepticism – There seem to be a lot of skeptically themed podcasts around these days, but my favourite is still Skeptic's Guide to the Universe (iTunes link), for its humourous and mostly geeky banter, and for great mix of personalities headed up by Steven Novella, president of the New England Skeptical Society. A great complement to SGU is Skeptoid (iTunes link) a tightly focused show with each short episode devoted to a straight talking dissection of a pseudoscience or other supernatural phenomena. Listening to both of these podcasts is probably more than enough to shock you on a regular basis at the amount of bullshit even intelligent people will tend to swallow.
On [American] Life – Although it's still more a radio show than a podcast, This American Life (iTunes link) continues to be my favourite source of stories. About people, place, politics, anything. It's the sort of show that makes neo-conservatives puke, and so it should, being a celebration of everything that makes us human.
On History – Ok, in truth this is about the only historical podcast I listen to, but if you remember that senile old movie star who used to be president, I recommend listening to his speech at the Berlin Wall via Great Speeches in History (iTunes link). Everyone thought Reagan was an idiot didn't they? Compare his speech with anything delivered by GWB and suddenly he seems like Abraham Lincoln. (only updated every month or so)
I'm currently interested in finding some new podcasts to listen to, so if anyone has any suggestions please leave them in the comments. As long as they are not religious, because I've sampled a few of these and found them exactly as boring and pointless as attending church. Atheist offerings can be a little boring too, as they tend to comprise people feeling pressed to explain for the ten millionth time that yes, atheists have morals too, and yes they are openly discriminated against like no other minority.
I must admit I have pondered the idea of having a podcast, but have yet to come up with a suitable theme or source of material for it. A panel/discussion type of thing would probably be fun, but so easy to stuff up and requiring of so much organization that it will probably never happen. Also, 90% of podcasts aren't really worth the time it takes to listen to them. Just as it's probably better that every person doesn't get to go on the radio and say what they think, it's probably best that most people not bother producing podcasts (a nightmare scenario many evangelists seemed to think was the medium's future). You can skim a blog entry in seconds, but you can't skim 5 minutes of someone breathing into a mic going ummm and complaining about the media.
A "cdesign proponentsist" gets his ass handed to him
Spirited biologist PZ Myers recently debated Geoffrey Simmons, a clueless twit who seems to know almost nothing about evolution and yet has written an anti-evolution book titled What Darwin Didn't Know.
PZ posts about the "debate" here:
I was shocked for a moment when, after I'd mentioned the recent discovery of Indohyus, he went on to claim that there were no intermediates between that deer-like artiodactyl and modern whales … and when I tried to mention Pakicetus, Ambulocetus, Rhodcetus, Basilosaurus, etc., he seemed to have never heard of them, claimed his information came from a Scientific American article some months ago (way to plumb the depths of the scientific literature, Dr Simmons!), and then started making up stuff about them not exhibiting dorsoventral flexion in swimming, and not having dorsal blowholes. He wrote a whole book about "Billions of missing links"! His other book, What Darwin Didn't Know, needs to be retitled in a new edition, What Geoffrey Simmons Doesn't Know. It will be a very large book.
Fortunately the radio station provides online access to its audio archives, so you can listen to the good Dr Simmons swallowing his tongue as PZ politely tears him to pieces.
PZ has always come off as pretty forthright on his blog, so I was quite surprised at his softly spoken manner and the admirable restraint he showed during the debate. He could have easily added the words "…you idiot" to the end of everything he said, and I still think it would have been a fair exchange.
If you think Dr Simmons is getting a raw deal here, bear in mind he claims to have studied evolution for 40 years and understand it well enough to call out huge problems with it (having written at least two books claiming everyone else has it wrong) yet he appears unaware of the current state of the literature and offers no evidence or suggested mechanism for any alternative theory. He keeps harping on his point that no one is allowed to question Darwin's evolution, even though there is significant debate within the field of biology on the details and mechanisms at work, and evolution belongs no more to Darwin than gravity does to Newton or Einstein. Simmons deserves about as much respect as someone standing in the middle of the room shouting about how maths is pointless and doesn't explain anything.
Below the fold is a transcript of Intelligent Design fans listening to their champion go down in flames. Sooooo delicious :) It is provided here in the spirit of fair use, and also because it was disappeared from the site where it was originally posted (ie they deleted it because they were embarrassed by it).
Religion is useless, thanks for reminding me
There's been a few items popping up this week to fan the flames of my rational indignation… For one thing we have Pope Ratzo (aka Palpatine) whining about the "seductive" power of science wooing people away from the dignified human values instilled by religion, like worshipping an invisible sky fairy, pretending to eat his flesh and drink his blood, and inserting penises into no orifices other than vaginas– apparently God only likes to watch his children have vanilla sex (missionary style one would also presume).
"When human beings in the weakest and most defenseless state of their existence are selected, abandoned, killed or used as pure 'biological material,' how can one deny that they are being treated not as 'someone' but as 'something,"' he said.
Yes, you probably weren't aware of this but at this moment hordes of scientists stalk the land snatching defenseless babies from the womb in the course of research directed to the eternal preservation of the body of Richard Dawkins.
"In an age when scientific developments attract and seduce with the possibilities they offer, it's more important than ever to educate our contemporaries' consciences so that science does not become the criteria for goodness," he told scientists.
Actually, science makes no claim to "goodness", and religious dipshits often construct this straw-man argument: if science observes that strong organisms tend to perpetuate their lineage more effectively than weak ones, therefore people like the handicapped and infertile should be killed because they are "weak" from an evolutionary perspective. Funny, science also tells us that microorganisms can kill us, but rather than saying that is a good thing, science helps us come up with ways to stop microorganisms killing us. Unlike religion, which in its various guises has suggested that sickness was caused by demons, witches and God's displeasure with us, science is a tool we can use to measurably improve the lives of billions.
The Catholic church especially is not equipped to "educate our contemporaries' consciences" – they can't even educate their own priests well enough to discourage them from sexually interfering with children. Oh, was that a cheap shot? Sure, not all priests are child-molesters, but if the church really holds this magical moral highground, why are any of them child-molesters? If God is the font of all the love and justice in the world, then surely being so close to him should displace such foul proclivities? If you were to pick a random priest and a random person off the street, I seriously wonder who is more likely to have abused children…
While science is essentially amoral, I think its adherence to the principal of seeking objective truth has a lot more good to it than the insidious sophistry of religion, which promises everything and delivers nothing. Which makes absurd claims which are untestable, then lauds the fact that these claims are somehow beyond scrutiny.
The other thing I was going to bitch about here was that an Athiest & Agnostic group on Myspace– 35,000 members strong– was deleted with no explanation or consultation, but that has since been restored, taking the hot air out of my sails somewhat, so if you want to know more you can just go read about it here and form your own opinion. God, I hate MySpace.

In anticipation of the cooler Autumn weather, today I'm going to share how I magically turned the sleeve of an old sweater into a new (and FREE!) dog sweater. There are several tutorials for this project floating around the internet, but one that I found to be super easy to follow is on Veronica O'Neil's blog, VO Knits. At first glance I was a little skeptical that the sleeve of a sweater would actually comfortably fit my dog, but it did with room to spare.
First, you'll need a sweater. Any sweater or sweatshirt will work, but to ensure that the sleeve is big enough, you'll probably want to use one that is size large or bigger. (I used a ladies' XL sweater to make this project for my 15-pound dog.) If you have an old sweater in the back of your closet that you don't mind cutting up–great! If not, you can buy a sweater for around $2 at a thrift shop or yard sale.
Now you'll also need pinking shears or fabric scissors and a needle and thread (or Fray Check seam sealant). Once the materials are gathered, the project takes less than 15 minutes to finish! And you don't have to be perfectly exact to end up with a nice-looking finished product. I pretty much eyeballed the length, spacing, etc, but it helps to fit it on your dog as you go along to double-check the sizing. The process that I used to make my dog sweater is explained below, and you can check out VO Knits for the more detailed photo tutorial.
1. Use the pinking shears or fabric scissors to cut one sleeve off of your sweater, following the shoulder seam. Do not cut the wrist cuff off, because it makes a nice finished neck for your dog sweater.
2. Cut two small circles out of the sleeve to form the leg openings of your dog sweater. Be careful not to cut them too large. (About 1 1/2 to 2 inches in diameter is plenty big).
3. Next, cut the sleeve to a length that fits the length of your dog's back. You can leave this bottom hem straight or cut it into a "saddle" shape (as explained on VO Knits).
4. At this point you can turn each of the cut edges under and hand-sew the hems with a needle and thread. OR, you can take the lazy way out (as I did, of course) and simply use Fray Check liquid seam sealant around each of the cut edges to keep them from fraying.
5. Dress your dog up in the fashionable new doggie sweater and hit the dog park!

To get to Koh Lanta we had to get a boat from Ao Nang and it was all a very civilised and comfortable affair, no mid ocean transfers and perfect sunshine streaming through the window sent Tim and Judi to sleep in no time, I on the other hand used my time effectively and made an attempt to update the blog.
Within no time we were in Koh Lanta, and encountered the usual mayhem of trying to get off the boat. If everyone just got off and waited for their luggage it would be a very civilised affair but unfortunately tourists on these boats cannot possibly step foot on dry land without their luggage even if it does mean throwing everyone elses luggage in the aisle and ensuring that no one else can leave the boat, genius
Eventually we make it off the boat and lo and behold after standing patiently on the pier whilst all the other Farangs cause chaos our bags are delivered to our feet in an orderly fashion, watch and learn suckers! It is always a good sign when the hotel transfer that you book turns up and we were therefore delighted to be greated by a sign and ushered to a pick up truck to make our way to our hotel. 20 minutes later and we are checked in and whilst it is a step down from a moon deck suite in Ao Nang our little huts by the sea were just perfect, Coco Lanta is a brand new hotel with little concrete bungalows, they are small but they are also perfectly formed they even have a hammock on the balcony. Most importantly we are on the beach and we have our own little pool.
We very quickly relaxed into beach life, with a daily routine of our all-inclusive breakfast which was exhausting in itself with 9 choices on the menu, then sun bed on the beach, dip in the sea, a few laps of the pool, maybe an afternoon massage followed by dinner and an early night. This was pretty much the repeat routine for the holiday. Definitely a more relaxing trip than the last one.
Following in our footsteps having been made redundant a few months after us, we managed to meet up with Sharon, she was also using her time and money wisely and boosting the Thai economy.
So what better way to spend our time and money than on a speedboat tour
So off we set on our tour ready to see some fish. The tour was certainly not a disappointment, the first snorkel stop was filled with amazing huge fish everywhere, I was most excited that I found Nemo, but Tim trumped me and found the most stunning Honeycomb Morey Eel which was swimming along the bottom. Scuba Jude was in her element, there was just no stopping her she even saw a lobster hiding in a rock! The next snorkel stop was not the best, it was a bit choppy and murky and there were a lot of sea lice stinging us but still we were off to Koh Kraden and the Emerald cave next. Koh Kraden was stunning having scuba dived off the reef off of Koh Kraden I knew that the sealife and water was amazing and it didn't disappoint, it was such a lovely island to stop on for lunch and gave us some great opportunities for some posey shots on a log in the sea. Finally it was time for the main attraction, The Emerald Cave
I had read quite a lot about Lanta Animal Welfare which is an animal shelter on Koh Lanta which takes in sick, injured and abused animals and treats, sterilizes and rehomes them. It is a non-profit organisation which runs entirely on donations and funding from a local cookery school which supports the centre. I managed to convince cat lover extraordinaire Sharon to come with me to visit. As much as Tim loves animals if they are sick or hurt he can't cope and therefore there was no chance I was going to get him to come with me. As with everyday it was red hot, but despite the call of our sunbed and books we set off for some kitty cuddles and dog walking
With our time fast coming to an end we had one more speed boat trip to make, this time to Koh Rok. Koh Rok is said to be the best place to snorkel in the area with an entire square kilometre of coral gardens with beautiful visibility and colourful reef life. Scuba Jude was ready to get her snorkel. When we arrived at Koh Rok we initially dropped the lunch equiptment and the chef on the beach ready to prepare lunch before we set off to the snorkel sights, much to our amazement half of the boat emptied and stayed on the beach for the day. If only they knew what they had missed. Koh Rok was without a doubt the most amazing snorkelling in the area, the water was crystal clear with visibility that extended forever. There were huge fish of ever colour in every direction and much to my delight a lack of sea lice for the first time in ages. There was no stopping scuba Jude she was off, chasing the fish and thoroughly enjoying every minute of it
The rest of our holiday was whiled away reading, relaxing and eating and drinking ourselves silly
We had to catch the ferry to Krabi to fly back to Bangkok, which was a lovely journey and it was fun to watch the people doing the mid-ocean transfer to Koh Jum whilst we sat back comfortably and watched them clambering across the longtails and looking longingly to see if their luggage was following them. We didn't plan too well when we booked our flights to Bangkok so we had a good few hours to burn in Krabi airport, so we decided to head to Big C which is basically a hypermarket like Carrefour in France. We had no trouble at all wasting our time and Judi and I also managed to stock our luggage with some new purchases. Before we knew it, it was time to catch our flight to Bangkok and have some fun in the big city….

weather permitting! not a dyno but it may have some positive results.
CASTOR TROY has #1
I have done a few for myself, but he has #1 and #2.
#2 did not start, But that was why I sent 2.
I only have my 99 VIN Y Powered Fiero to play with. I needed a VIN 9 to try a different program.
We will have some result on this in a week or so. True numbers from the track
I am at a loss. I thought it was because of K29 RPO. I am running a K29 in my Fiero. The PCM I sent that did not start. Does it have a white sticker on it? I would like to know the 4 letters on it. example: CHTS, CPYK, CABY.
Would this thread include '98 Aurora?
I bought a ECU from ebay that's from a '99 Aurora; says it fits 96-99 Aurrora, 96 Deville, 97-99 Deville, 96-99 Seville, and 96-99 Eldo
Tag on unit:
The one 96 eldo ate too much of my time. I am going to personally install it this weekend.
You stated that you want to do many mods to your car. I think after you get it all done I should work on a program. You talked about injector changes, T-body. I think that after you are done I should run the #s for the different injectors.
so Aj what do I need to get you started programming my Pcm I pmed you but got no response.
I am running short on them. I had some, but killed two, sent two out (NO PAY & NO RETURN ON THE SECOND ONE). I have two currently, but they are spoken for. The last two I purchased ran $50 each.
This PCM fits 96 to 99 Northstar's and Old's Aurora
ok Aj I just bought one out of a 99 Deville it should be here next week. do you want to pm me your address so I can get it shipped out as soon as it gets here? also is there any way you can get rid of the Pcm420 code I get every now and then ? I know why its there I have a high flow cat and magnaflow mufflers or am I gonna have to get the o2 sim thanks
Please add me to the list I have a 1998 STS
vin 1G6KY5499WU903033
I'm guessing I need to get a PCM 1621484
Please PM with your contact info and cost
I am working on some new programs. The ones done are great. The next step are going to be a PCM that I would not suggest running for more than a few hours at a time. It will foul the plugs out, but it makes loads of power.
AJ can you PM me pricing on this and whats involved?
Don't forget me !!!!
Well, looks like I need 2 now. 1 as a daily driver and 1 for the track.

United 2
Stevens 36
Ogogo o.g. 80
Dagenham 1
Saunders 73
UNITED fought their way to the play-off fringes in League 2 with a determined 2-1 win over Dagenham & Redbridge at Plainmoor.
Danny Stevens scored the only goal of an enterprising first half, squeezing the ball home from close range but the Daggers responded with a marvellous equaliser just 17 minutes from time.
The game was briefly heading for a draw until Niall Thompson made an instant impression, driving in a low cross that struck the outstretched leg of Abu Ogogo and floated into the top corner for the winning goal.
United manager Martin Ling enjoyed the luxury of naming the same starting line-up and substitutes from last weekend's 2-0 win at York City, with November Player of the Month Brian Saah continuing to wear the captain's armband in place of the suspended Lee Mansell.
Dagenham boss John Still made just one change from the team that defeated Fleetwood 1-0 seven days ago and that was one the bench, where Jake Caprice came in for Josh Wakefield.
The Gulls came flying out of the blocks on a crisp December Day at Plainmoor and Rene Howe tested the strength of the woodwork with a thunderous left-shoot drive from a narrow angle crashed into the upright.
It was a terrific effort from the left channel after some neat approach work by Kevin Nicholson but the Dagenham response was an incisive surge through the middle from Jake Reed, and Saah needed all this powers of recovery to make an important block on the final shot.
United had to cope with a mild period of pressure from the visitors until Joe Oaster released the shackles with a dangerous low cross for the run of Ryan Jarvis that required an alert clearance from Luke Wilkinson.
In a decent end-to-end opening 20 minutes, Saah was again the defensive hero for the Gulls, producing a fine block on a goal-bound shot by Reed from the edge of the penalty area.
Despite the attacking intent, neither goalkeeper was truly worked until Dagenham stopper Chris Lewington safely held a scooped shot from Howe after United's big striker had been released in the right channel by a pass from Billy Bodin.
The next save was bordering on miraculous as Aaron Downes climbed highest to flick on a looping free-kick and Howe found space just eight yards out, but he was denied by Lewington bravely launching his body in the path of a certain goal.
Moments later, United would not be denied and Stevens was the man to profit from determined work by Howe, who saw his initially deflected shot clawed away from under the bar by Lewington.
The ball fell perfectly for Stevens, who took a touch on his chest before forcing a low volley past Lewington and a melee of defenders all desperately trying to protect their exposed net.
Michael Poke's first meaningful contribution arrived just three minutes before the interval, as United's custodian saved superbly with his legs after Saunders had cut in from the wing to fire in a low shot following a half-cleared Dagenham corner.
The first period concluded with a fabulous flowing move from the Yellows, staring with Nicholson exchanging passes with Bodin, via a clever dummy from Howe, and the final low cross from United's full-back was scrambled clear by the retreating Daggers.
The second half started with a Howe drive fizzing just past the top corner and then Plainmoor was bouncing with indignation when Femi Ilesanmi appeared to thwart a run by Bodin with a handball in the box, but referee James Adcock waved away the vociferous shouts for a penalty.
United's next foray stemmed from the hardworking Jarvis, sporting the finest 'tash of any Movember advocate, who teed up Oastler for a run across the middle, but his final pass was just too strong for Bodin to reach.
Tempers were raised just after the hour-mark when a n excessive challenge from Ogogo stoked the bubbling fires inside Howe, and the visiting skipper rightly picked up the first caution of the afternoon.
The flow of proceedings continued to work in favour of the Gulls and with a quarter of the game remaining, Still introduced Brian Woodall and Caprice for the tiring legs of Reed and Michael Sipllane.
Neither man had touched the ball, however, when Jarvis spurned a glorious chance to seal the win, heading wide from an excellent position after he had been picked out by a sweeping Nathan Craig cross.
Within a minute, the Gulls were almost punished for that miss, as Saunders weaved a path across the edge of the box and speared a fine shot inches past the despairing dive of Poke, and beyond the far post.
Sadly for United, Saunders found his range in magnificent fashion moments, smashing a wonderful first-time volley past Poke from distance. The ball rocketed in off the post and nobody could deny it was a fantastic strike.
Ling immediately attempted to repair the damage by removing Stevens for the outright pace of Thompson and the impact was instant, as United restored their lead in the driving rain.
The move started with a surging run from Bodin and then Craig Easton intelligently fed the ball wide for Thompson on the left, who instantly fired in a cross that took a massive deflection off Ogogo to loop past Lewington and nestle in the top corner.
There was a huge slice of luck involved and Ling sought to capitalise further by removing the limping Jarvis, who had taken a knock just before the goal, for the youthful enthusiasm of Ashley Yeoman.
The final roll of Dagenham dice was to replace Medy Elito with Josh Scott for the closing five minutes in what had become a torrential downpour. The protective response from the Yellow bench was the removal of Bodin for Damon Lathrope.
Referee Adcock handed Dagenham one last chance to save the points with a harsh decision against a Downes tackle, but Saunders curled his shot into grateful arms of the Yellow Army sat in the Family Stand.
United (4-4-1-1): 1 Michael Poke; 2 Joe Oastler, 5 Brian Saah (capt), 4 Aaron Downes, 3 Kevin Nicholson; 15 Billy Bodin (6 Damon Lathrope 86), 18 Craig Easton, 20 Nathan Craig, 19 Danny Stevens (29 Niall Thompson 74); 8 Ryan Jarvis (23 Ashley Yeoman 81); 9 Rene Howe.

I can only confirm the positive commentaries about Ana's and Richard's villa. We stayed there as couple with rental car and had a really wonderful time. Our stay in Lagos could not have been better.
The villa lies on a hill - from the balcony of the large and clean rooms you can see the sea which is beautiful especially at night. The house also has a very nice swimming pool with perfect temperature.
Ana and Richard welcomed us very warmly and immediately took us on a tour through Lagos showing us all the best parking spots, ways through the city and ways to the beaches. Whenever we needed recommendations or help we could turn to Ana or Richard. All the beaches (Lagos has several beautiful beaches) can be reached within a few minutes by car. Thanks to Richard's tour we were quickly ready to find our own ways through Lagos. Of course Lagos is a good base if u want to explore the rest of the Algarve
The breakfast is awesome! We were looking forward to going to breakfast the next morning every night. Richard made fresh fruit salad every morning and always had a surprise for us (additionally there is bread, croissants, cheese, ham, joghurt, cereals etc., noone leaves the house hungry). He also makes his own delicious marmelades that we enjoyed every morning (although i usually never eat marmelade).
So in short: If you look for a great B&B in the Algarve take this one. You won't regret it.
Sehr schöne Villa, großes Zimmer. Sehr sauber, schön eingerichtet, sehr nette Vermieter, leckeres Frühstück immer mit frischem Obstsalat usw...
Nur zu empfehlen!!
It´s a very nice vila with great and big rooms. Tidy and clean. Nice and sympatically renters. Very good breakfast with fresh fruit salat...Test it out by yourself, it was a great time!
We enjoyed our stay at Lagos. The room was nice and the view stunning. The location was very good. The breakfast was made with love and of a great variety. We are thankful for meeting such great hosts as Ana and Richard and their great tips as locals. We definetly recommend.
Fantastic and lovely couple!! We spent a very pleasant time with Ana & Richard in their charming place. Room was very clean, big and very comfortable with nice views over Lago's seaside. Generous and delicious breakfast for all tastes!! Do not hesitate to enjoy one of Richard's cakes and pies!!
I fully recomend to share with them a little piece of your journey.
Just perfect!!! Apartment as described and very beautiful, lovely hosts, amazing breakfast!! We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer! Thank you again!!!
Es war unsere erste Reise nach Portugal. Die Unterkaunft haben wir durch Zufall bei Wimdu gefunden.
Die Beschreibung der Unterkunft und die Bewertungen stimmen ganz genau. Das Zimmer ist ausreichend groß und sehr liebevoll und praktisch eingerichtet. Alles modern und sauber. Ana und Richard waren sehr freundliche und zuvorkommende Gastgeber. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig, immer frisch zubereitet und landestypisch.
Wir haben uns bei Ana und Richard sehr gut aufgehoben gefühlt und konnten von der ersten Minute an unseren Urlaub genießen.
Die Unterkunft können uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
Bardzo polecam!!!
Przepiękny dom z basenem.
Pokoje: duże, czyste, wygodne, piękny widok z balkonu.
Wyśmienite śniadania!!!
Ana i Richard to świetni gospodarze. Każdego dnia po śniadaniu dużo rozmawialiśmy. Richard doradzał nam w sprawie wycieczek i dużo opowiadał o Portugalii.
Jeśli szukasz spokojnej lokalizacji blisko centrum - to dobrze trafiłeś.
Bardzo się cieszę, że wybraliśmy Lagos.
Es war eine sehr schöne Zeit in Lagos,
mit einem wunderschönen Frühstück am Morgen
und einem abwechslungsreichen Alltag in der Algarve.
Die Unterkunft ist groß, sauber und schön eingerichtet.
Merci beaucoup Ana et Richard.
Séjour agréable. Hôtes sympathiques. Cependant, petit point noir : les aboiements des chiens avoisinants le matin.

Kim Dormaar &
Sons Medallion Smoked Salmon
Barbara Bowman
Dormaar & Sons is a small, family-run fish smoking plant
located on Prince Edward Island just off the coast of Canada.
Offering a wide variety of smoked foods from the sea, the
company uses traditional European methods to make its products.
Too many smoked meats tend to have an artificial smoky flavor
with an unsavory aftertaste, but not those from Kim Dormaar
& Sons. Their smoked Atlantic salmon is buttery, moist
and has a delicious natural smoky flavor without being too
salty. The delicacy is made from salmon caught in the Bay
of Fundy and off the coast of Newfoundland. Next, it is
prepared by hand-salting the flesh, drying it in the open
air, then finally cold smoking it with a fire of aromatic
wood native to the area. No sweeteners or artificial preservatives
are used. Their smoked eel is of equal high quality and
extremely moist.
the smoked salmon thinly sliced on bagels with cream cheese
for breakfast, on crackers or in dips as hors d'oeuvres.
Get creative with a smoked salmon pasta made with farfalle,
cream and petit pois or a brunch dish with scrambled eggs,
tomato, chives and chunks of goat cheese.
Smoked products available from Kim Dormaar & Sons: Atlantic
salmon ($49.95 for 1.7 lb. one whole side of smoked Atlantic
salmon), steelhead trout, black cod, eel, salmon caviar,
gravlax, mackerel, scallops, and rainbow trout fillets.

The latest series of government grants to geothermal technology companies has fired up the sector and helped
The company said that its Hunter Valley geothermal project has been awarded $7 million to help prove up its technology under the federal government's geothermal drilling program.
Geodynamics had been given $10 million in late 2009 under the NSW Climate Change Fund Renewable Energy Development Program to develop a geothermal power plant in the Hunter Valley.
But the stock has been struggling over the past 12 months and has turned in a loss of about 10 per cent while the S&P/ASX Small Ordinaries Index has surged by more than 50 per cent.
An incident at one of its pilot projects where barrier casings at the Habanero 3 well cracked as well as the length of time required for it to earn a profit from the technology has turned off investors.
The company has engaged an independent consultant who has revalidated the proof of concept of Habanero 3 but brokers do not expect Geodynamics to turn in a net profit until some time after the financial year ending June 30, 2013. It is, however, expected to record revenue of $40.1 million in 2010-11.
The upside from this technology could be huge because geothermal, which uses heat deep in the ground to generate electricity, is one of the few renewable and emissions-free energy sources that can provide consistent base-load power. As such, it is deemed a potential substitute to conventional power plants.
Other emerging geothermal companies that received the latest federal government grant include Torrens Energy, Hot Rock and Green Rock.
Geodynamics closed unchanged at 81.5¢ on Monday.

There is a track on Jay-Z and Kanye West's 2011 album Watch The Throne called "Made In America." This much is clear. It is less clear precisely how the track relates to the new teaser bearing its title that has just made its way online. It might mean that "Made In America" will be the next single from the album. But then again it might not: the trailer's black and white footage and tense backing track do not fit especially well with the song. For now, then, the video remains something of a mystery.
Jay-Z and Kanye West's enigmatic "Made In America" clip streams below. Interpretations welcome. [Nah Right]

In the course of testing TVs over the past few weeks, it's struck us that some of the main TV brands have introduced some fairly major upgrades to their online TV services. So we thought it was worth presenting a run-down of what's new in the fast-changing online TV world.
As well as sharpening up the front end of its NetTV online service, Philips has introduced lots of extra content in the past couple of weeks. The most intriguing new discovery is the 'App Gallery'. Previously Philips hadn't shown any particular signs of going the App route (even though many of the services we've discussed in earlier features were, essentially, apps), but it's now clear that it feels that organising and offering extra content via the app model is the way ahead.
There's some interesting new stuff you can opt to add to your online functions via the new App Gallery, too. First there's the CineTrailer app, which lets you watch trailers of all the latest films coming out at the cinema or on home video. This is sourced from France, but the trailers appeared in English, with respectable video quality.
There's also an app for the Foreca weather service, offering global coverage, and rather more interestingly an app for buying stuff on eBay. This doesn't just dump you into a browser either, but rather provides a rather streamlined way to navigate and use the eBay site via your TV.
Also well worthwhile is the tunin.fm internet radio 'server', and an app for using Twitter via your TV. Wrapping things up on the interesting new app front are online photo storage site MyAlbum and iConcerts, which offers streamed footage from archived concerts. You do generally only get a single song from each concert though, so the service seems more of an advert for the full online iConcert website rather than a true service in itself.
Another new 'app' deemed so useful that it's automatically presented on the new NetTV Home page is TomTom. Although this is a little tortuous to navigate around, it's actually pretty phenomenal in terms of how much information it presents about the ongoing state of traffic round the UK. Also impressive is how up to date the information appeared to be during our time checking the service.
Elsewhere, Philips has even improved the front end of its Opera open Web browser, making favourites easier to get to.
One final new app worth mentioning is an interactive tutorial designed to help you get the best from the Philips TVs. This seems very worthwhile, actually, given that one of our main complaints against Philips' frequently excellent TVs is that they can be pretty tough to get the best out of.
We should say that the new NetTV platform seemed a little unstable during our tests, suffering a few crashes and 'error' messages. But these issues will doubtless be ironed out over time. We hope.
As the owner of a Panasonic TV I have to look with envy at practically every other manufactures online content offering. Panasonic seem to be really weak in this area.
Where this will fail is that these companies are still thinking of their devices as TVs with some extra functionality grafted on. And it shows - slow, clunky UIs, terrible ergonomics (try doing anything quickly with the supplied remotes), poor software and next to no software updates and improvements people now expect.
They should really be providing just the panel and image processing technology and let others step in for the media provisioning and management.
Good article. I have been telling colleages at work, smart TVs are going to be the next big thing, just like smartphone. It will get more exciting when you start seeing Android, Meego and Apple iOS based products, with the same possiblities as on smartphones and an explosion of apps. The current range of 'connected TV' aren't smart enought IMO, I would compare them to feature phones...
Interesting but i think you've been a bit unfair leaving Samsung out of the list. We bought a Samsung UE32C6530 a couple of months ago and the internet@TV stuff is absolutely brilliant. The iplayer is a joy to use and supports HD streaming. And youtube, lovefilm, acetrax and Muzu.tv are all genuinely useful and worth having.
Thanks for this. It would be good to have a regular update of online content - say monthly or so.
On Sony content: The new BBC iPlayer is still only Beta and doesn't show HD content. This is odd since the iPlayer that comes with the Sony BDV players is not Beta, operates faster than the Bravia and does contain HD.
You don't mention Picasa which is new and works well. On the first visit you login to your Picasa web albums and it shows the first 36 albums as tiles - which meant a little Picasa maintenance for me since I had many more than 36 albums on the web. The quality is really excellent. It is the first photo app, including connecting a PC direct to the TV, (that I've seen) that makes my pics watchable on a big (46") screen. To maintain quality the app does not expand the photo to fill the screen which means you need to store your web albums at the higher resolution to fill the screen. Nice one Sony.

LONDON - The All Blacks gained a brief glimpse into the cosseted world of England's educated elite today when they trained at the historic Harrow School's playing fields.
The team's preparations for the final leg of their rugby Grand Slam attempt against England at Twickenham on Sunday (NZT) began on the immaculate grounds of one of the country's most famous public schools.
Harrow was founded in 1572 and has dominated the hill which bears its name through the ages.
Essentially a microcosm of English upper class life surrounded by working class London suburbs, Harrow's notable alumni include poet Lord Byron, England's wartime leader Sir Winston Churchill and the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru.
More recent Old Harrovians include singer James Blunt.
The All Blacks team bus wound its way along the picturesque High Street - a collection of stores servicing the school - before heading to the lower playing fields for a relatively light training session.
Students of the 800-strong school, resplendent in traditional grey trousers, blue jumper and trademark straw boater, watched the All Blacks go through their paces before the team headed to an indoor pool - known colloquially as "the ducker" - for recovery.
Despite the excellent sports facilities the students have at their disposal, Harrow struggles with rugby union.
The first team has won just four of 14 games this season, with a sports master - or "beak" as the teachers are referred to - acknowledging academic achievement is the prime consideration as the boys almost without exception continue their educations at either Oxford or Cambridge University.
The curriculum certainly appears to leave little opportunity for the pursuit of sporting excellence, and given the fees are £30,000 ($85,520) a year it is perhaps understandable the books take precedence.
Every first-year student has to study English, French, mathematics, biology, chemistry, physics, history, geography, Latin or classical civilisation, religious studies, art, music plus design and information technology. Greek, German and Spanish are offered to the 13-year-olds with "good linguistic ability".
However, there is one sport the boys are adept at.
Harrow has its own unique style of football where the purpose of the game is to score a "base". This is achieved by kicking the ball between a pair of vertical posts at either end of the ground.
They are similar to rugby posts but without the crossbar.
The All Blacks have another training session tomorrow before they head to Tower Bridge where the giant rugby ball promoting the 2011 World Cup is situated at Potters Field. There they will meet Queen Elizabeth 2 at a function that also features new Prime Minister John Key.

Cast drain backup
1 Attachment(s)
Recent success with an electrical help from the fine folks at this site.
Though I've spent more time pulling toilets, and crawling under sinks than testing circuits, I don't have any experience with the cast drains.
SPECIFIC ISSUE: Basement washer (black hose running up to near white elbow in the picture is from the washer -- black hose running to far drain is from dishwasher) drains into a 1 1 /2" cast pipe (bottom of picture -- 1 1/2" on cap, so I'm assuming that's the ID) backs up occasionally. We can lift the lid on the washer (stop the draining) once or twice for a few seconds during the drain cycle, and the pipe can handle the flow without water on the floor. Miss the drain cycle and it'll leave some water on the floor. Dishwasher never causes backup.
1. Tub (1st floor) drain will become slow; won't clog completely as long as I add drain/gel cleaner right away.
2. Drains began to "gurgle" some months ago. Constant.
Purchased a "pro-style" power snake to solve the problem but after purchase I began reading (not here) about snaking a cast drain and the flaking / damage it can cause inside the pipe. Supposedly can clog drain more. I'd already snaked it once (marginal success) when I read that. Cleaned, repacked and returned the power snake.
That was a couple of months ago. Combination of the snake and retail drain cleaner directly into the basement washer drain fixed it temporarily. Gurgling continued though.
Couple of days ago it started again; tried the "retail" drain gel again (snake's gone); still backing up. Thinking about bringing a plumber in to snake it.
Thoughts on "snake = cast damage"?
Other options? Thoughts? Access to this pipe (for replacement) would be major job / expense. Pipe is exposed for about 10', then runs about 30' +/- behind wall in finished part of basement.
Can you get a better over all picture of that piping?
I see lots of things wrong ----
That washer drain never should had 2 elbows like that, there is no trap that I can see so sewer gas can be relieced into the room. It needs to be 2" pipe, (not sure what you have now)
Never use a drain cleaner just use a snake. Will a snake cause a cast drain to flake off rust? Yes, will it plug anything up, no.
Should all cast iron and steel supply pipes be replaced with PVC yes. If it's not leaking now it will at some point.
Gurgling is caused from a pluged up or nonexistant vent. When water goes down the drain it's trying to suck air out of the traps.
Take a straw and dip it into a glass of water, now put you finger over the tip of the straw and lift up, what happens? Same principal.
Some times when the main line backs up or a septic tank fills up the sewer backs up into the lines and can plug up the vent line.
2" white / black PVC was added by a plumber many years ago, just before we purchased the house; day or two before settlement...and just prior to township enacting new electrical, plumbing, etc inspections for house sales (found this out after the fact). Anyway...
The 2" from the washer and dishwasher (far end of picture) both flow into the cast (2"?) at the bottom of the picture.
Also, this may be something...may be nothing -- township was working on sewers in front of the house a few days ago. Had some kind of huge vacuum, I think. Heard the gurgling when they were working. They somehow sucked all the water out of the basement toilet -- sewer gas filled the house then (twice) ... Went out to talk with them; neighbor was walking back and told me he'd just told them the same thing. Someone up the line was having a problem. They moved up the street and opened another sewer cap; did the same thing.
Gurgling was a vent issue. Also, snaked cast pipe. Marginally better. Plan is to knock out exterior wall housing the cast drain and replace with PVC.
Working now...
1 Attachment(s)
Got a new clean out that's accessible; dishwasher drain now runs into the kitchen sink drain, washer drain runs to a trap, and running occasional snake is easy... "up to code" to the wall. Still have to change the rest of the drain from the wall out, but that's for another day.

Some food situations
... instant culture. This is so ironic to me, considering the fact that coffee was founded in this region! And I'm an addict, so I want the good stuff here.
After teaching a class of about 30 upper-level students, me and 2 friends went out grocery shopping. It was quite the experience, as we got inside before prayer, shopped, and had to hurry and check out before the doors closed for the next prayer. ...
Long days and night wanderings
... dealerships to find my way back.
Oh well. I like to walk. It's also really relaxing after a long day at work. Today, some teachers still haven't shown up, and others are sick. I ended up teaching for about 6 hours straight, sooo I need something to help me wind down. I liked both of my classes today though. The first had very high level students, and I got them in a super competitive game of board race. It ...
... show off in school and get a bit made up. I was also surprised to see some ankles and arms--scandalous! Another norm is wearing shear shirts...I guess as long as they go to the elbow, it's ok. Strange rules.
My students seem to like English. Everyone in my first class said that it was their favorite subject. The levels are varied as of now, so I ave some beginners with intermediate students. ...
Landing and sleeping
... love to pass on that sort of compliment to someone!
Upon landing in Qatar for my 8 hour layover, I had a better idea of what I would be soon encountering. There was no connecting terminal to our plane, so we stepped into over 100 degree, humid weather and made our way to the airport. Since the majority of the women were dressed in all black and wore hijabs, I went ahead and changed into my own Saudi garb. I have no idea why, but some old man wearing ...
Al Heet Cave
Al Heet is a town just outside of Riyadh. The cave itself is not one of the tourist attractions you'll find on the internet. All the same it's always amazing finding places that naturally retain a lot of water in this very dry climate. Also, like most places here sadly, it looks like a tourist attraction with all the litter in and around it.
