Report of Possible Voter Suppression in Bowling Green, Ohio on Sunday
The following is a report on a voting issue in Bowling Green Ohio. In order for this incident to be legally considered voter suppression one must prove that the person responsible had the intention to suppress votes. Proving what someone was intending to do is a difficult thing. However, if we were to simply look at the outcome of the incident reported bellow, it would be safe to assume that voters were discouraged from voting. If we raise awareness about these incidents we can help prevent them from happening to others. If everyone does their part to document what is […]Full Story... →
I've received reports that behavior looking suspiciously like voter suppression is happening at precinct 24E in Cincinnati at Mother of Christ Church. I've heard from two sources, one of whom wishes to remain anonymous. Legally, nothing is considered voter suppression unless it is proven that there was the intention to suppress votes. Proving intention is a tricky thing. However, the outcome, if these reports are accurate, is that people who wanted to vote in this election may be discouraged from voting or not have their votes counted unless the election is close enough to warrant counting provisional ballots.

25 Reasons from 25 People who are Voting Obama
Five hundred and thirty seven.
That's the number of votes that decided the 2000 election. And if you don't go to the polls today, we could see the same sort of razor-thin margins here in Ohio.
If you or anyone else you know needs a reminder about what President Obama has done for us, and what's at stake here, take a look at the following list…
25 reasons from 25 people who are voting Obama:
1. "The Affordable Care Act is saving my daughter's life."

2. "Obama is for the vets. He helped us […]Full Story... →
Rubber Stamp Romney: Tea Party Tool
"All we have to do is replace Obama… We are not auditioning for fearless leader. We don't need a president to tell us in what direction to go. We know what direction to go. We want the Ryan budget… We just need a president to sign this stuff. We don't need someone to think it up or design it. The leadership now for the modern conservative movement for the next 20 years will be coming out of the House and the Senate… Pick a Republican with enough working digits to handle a pen to become president of […]Full Story... →
Fight the Lies and Vote for Choice
Ohio Right to Life President Mike Gonidakis must be taking notes from Mitt Romney. He used a media platform to spread a lie he knew would advance his political agenda. Ohio Public Radio reporter Jo Ingles had to fact check him after the fact. However Mike and Mitt know that what the audience hears the first time around is what they remember, and follow up fact checks are less likely to reach them or be believed.
This is where you come in. If you want to preserve […]Full Story... →
The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio sent a letter to Celina High School yesterday, urging administrators to reconsider their unconstitutional decision to prohibit students from wearing shirts that express their support of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) students.
"Schools should be a place where students are free to express their beliefs," said ACLU of Ohio Legal Director James Hardiman. "None of these young people acted inappropriately, and only wished to express their support for all members of their community. Expressing their views did not disrupt the learning environment, but now the administration's unconstitutional overreaction has."

Don't Let Mitt Romney Kill Her
I admit my headline is shocking and dramatic. I made it that way for a reason. We as a nation have to face the reality that if Mitt Romney becomes President and follows through on what he has said he will do, people will die as a result. Real people. If Crystal has a recurrence of cancer, she could be one of those people.
Yesterday I got a message on my public Facebook Page from someone who follows what I post there. Her name is Crystal and she wanted to share a letter her husband had […]Full Story... →
Voter Intimidation Message Crops Up Again
Remember the voter intimidation billboards that were taken down and replaced with the message, "Voting is a right, not a crime?"
A message similar to the one on the original billboards has cropped up on a van outside the Franklin County Early Vote location.
Jonny Lifeson spotted this van parked outside the early vote location on the North side of Columbus while on her way to work this morning at 8:26am. The van has Romney stickers on it.
According to the Brennan Center for Justice, fraud by individual voters is both irrational […]Full Story... →
Message From President Obama About Hurricane Sandy
This is a serious storm, but we are going to do what it takes to keep people safe and secure, and make sure the communities affected get the assistance they need. FEMA is working with state and local governments to respond effectively. We all owe a debt of thanks to the first responders who will be dealing with the immediate impact of the storm.
If you live in the storm's path, please listen to state and local authorities about where and how to take shelter and stay safe — and encourage your friends and family to do […]Full Story... →
Not A Shiny Object
"Listen, y'all. This is the moment that could change everything.
If we don't want a Romney-Ryan White House backed by an Akin-Thompson Senate, we've got to get a move on. Romney's right-hand man Paul Ryan voted against family planning 60 times. And one of their top advisors called women's issues "shiny objects of distraction.
I'm not a shiny object. I'm a woman and an American, and I'm not going to sit out these last 9 days."
~ Ashley Judd (in a fundraising letter for Emily's List sent out today)

Hurricane Sandy, Climate Change, Election 2012
Hurricane Sandy could be the largest storm to hit the United States, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's website.
"The size of this alone, affecting a heavily populated area, is going to be history making," said Jeff Masters, a hurricane specialist who writes a blog posted on the Weather Underground.
Everything is harder when you're poor. If you've ever been poor you know what I'm talking about. Something as simple as doing your laundry can become a daylong chore because you have to get on a bus and go to a laundry-mat. Health issues loom […]Full Story... →

Hina hurried to pick up the phone as the bell rung. She was delighted to see the number on the telephone screen. It was Saba on the other side; her only daughter had married two weeks ago and flown to the UK. Hina was impatiently waiting to hear from her daughter, but as she was travelling, she hadn't gotten a chance to talk to her. She had only received an update about her safe journey with her husband. As it was going to be their first proper conversation after the wedding, Hina was keen to talk to her daughter and find out how married life was treating her.
Hina asked: "How are you? How is Adnan?" Saba replied: "Mama! It is so dull here! Nobody to talk to! I am all alone the whole day! No helper here; I have to do all the work myself." She was crying and saying, "Mama! I can't live here anymore!" Hina was thinking worriedly, "She is a victim of home sickness and climate change!"
Hina got very concerned after the call. When her husband, Rashid, came home, she told him about her chat with their daughter.
"Come on, she is no more a teenaged girl! She is 27 now! She should be tackling her problems on her own! Rashid was realisitic, even though Saba was his beloved daughter.
After a year…
Saba had not been able to adjust. Brought up in a family that did not socialize too much, her social skills were almost non-existent. She had no contact with any neighbours or the community. She would only chat over Skype with her mother.
One day, however, she called her mom and said joyfully: "Mama! Maham is coming here."
Maham was Saba's first cousin, three years younger than her. Unlike Saba, she was an extrovert. Inspite of the difference in nature and habits, both of them were good friends.
"Aha! That's good!" Hina exclaimed. She did caution her daughter not to dwell too much on her problems in front of her cousin, and stay composed and contented.
Finally, Maham arrived, with stars in her eyes. A confident and an enthusiastic soul, Maham was engaged to marry a Malaysian doctor, known to her family for six years.
Saba was puzzled at Maham's decision to stay with an Egyptian family, instead of staying with her. "Are they dearer to you than me?" Saba asked."Certainly not!" Maham answered, hugging her. "This Egyptian family was very near to my paternal grandfather! Now his daughters are my friends and that's the only reason I want to stay with them while I am visiting England!"
Maham and Saba talked all day long. " How do you spend time with the people belonging to different statuses and speaking different languages?" Saba asked.
"Oh dear! How can we find similarity in this world? All humans are equal." This philosophy was hard for Saba to digest.
The next day, Maha took her to a convention. It was a strange world for Saba. Muslim ladies of different age groups, belonging to different countries, were mingling with each other. They were hugging, kissing, making introductions and exchanging smiles. Saba was highly fascinated. Maham was totally at home there and Saba felt proud of being her cousin.
"Diversity is the beauty of nature! Tolerance and patience is the key to relish diversity. You know I am fond of continental foods. I have never tasted Malaysian food but now I am learning to cook them for my husband-to-be, in order to assimilate into their culture," said Maham laughing while leaving Saba in a deep thought.
After one week
Maham left the UK! But the desperate Saba gained so much from her friend!
A few days later, Hina asked her over Skype: "Where have you been? I was waiting." Saba told her, "Oh! I was out to visit my Bengali friend; she has been living here since three years. She helps me with grocery and other domestic problems. I go to a park where I get to meet many interesting ladies. Mama! I plan to continue my studies as well."
The new enthusiastic Saba left Hina happily astonished.

Smoking Rock
I thought the 140-character was an arbitrary guideline for the thread. Heh. Didn't realize it was a hard-coded minimal-limit of the site. I understand why, though... Gotta prevent people from leaving one-line spam.
Thinking it was an actual requirement from the originating offer, I went looking for the longest words with the shortest syllables I could find (hence, scrootched and squirrelled). After that, well I just wanted to use the word "cardiovascular" in a poem somewhere. I think I once used "ateriosclerosis" in a poem. Wasn't very good, but was amusing to try, anyway...

I've had the idea for this tutorial longer than I've had a blog! I simply can't believe how fast time has gone and that I am only now putting it together to share. In my opinion, all newborns, boys and girls, should be given one of these upon arriving into the world!
There are bucket loads of tutorials for similar 'taggie' blankets out there on the web but here are three reasons why I think this one is particularly special:
- Liberty print. Almost all 'taggie' blankets I've seen are made with minky fabric. Yes, this is ultra-soft but it is a slippery little bugger to sew with and it makes quite a fluffy mess. And, let's be honest, nothing says luxury like Liberty. I bought this Liberty from Stragier.
- Double gauze. Another one of my favourite indulgent fabrics, double gauze is made up of two fine layers of fabric. I bought this one from Rachael at Imagine Gnats. The rabbits and birds add a touch of whimsy that compliments the Liberty beautifully. Both the double gauze and the Liberty get softer with each wash so you can think of this as the gift that keeps on giving (and, if my kids are anything to go by, these blankets will be carted around everywhere so will need their fair share of washing).
- This tutorial is going to walk you through making your own tags from Liberty scraps instead of just using standard satin ribbon.
So, have I convinced you to give it a go?? Even if I haven't you can scroll through and enjoy the Liberty print eye candy – I promise there are lots of pretty pictures.
- 20 Liberty fabric scraps of varying sizes. I bought a pack of Washed and Worn Liberty Scraps from Ray Stitch in London. Cut each piece with a width of between 4 -9.5 cm and a length of between 8.5 – 12.5 cm.
- one Liberty print fabric square – 30cm x 30cm
- one double gauze fabric square – 30cm x 30cm
- one flannel (or other soft fabric) square – 30cm x 30cm (this will be the inside lining which helps give the blanket a nice weight – it won't be seen so feel free to use up any old scrap)
- coordinating thread, lots of pins, rotary cutter and mat are useful but not essential
Making The Tags
- To make a tag, fold your fabric scrap in half lengthwise with right sides together (RST) press.
- Sew the long edge with a 0.5cm seam allowance.
- Press the seam allowance open.
- Turn the tag right side out and press so that the seam is in the middle of the tag and then press in half width-wise with the seam on the inside.
- When you've done all 20 they will look like this.
Attaching the tags to the blanket
- On the right side of the Liberty square measure 3cm in from each corner and pin a tag.
- Distribute the rest of the tags evenly along the edges of the square and pin. Baste the tags in place with a 0.5cm seam allowance.
Assembling the blanket
- Now you'll make a nice neat pile of your three fabrics in this order, starting on bottom:
- Flannel/lining fabric (doesn't matter which side is up)
- Liberty fabric (with tags attached) right side up
- Double gauze right side down
Pin the three layers together.
Sew all the way around the edge of the blanket with a 1cm seam allowance, leaving a 7cm gap for turning. TIP – When sewing around the corners, don't make a sharp 90° turn. Instead, sew to the corner, turn 45° and sew one stitch, then turn another 45° and continue sewing the next side. This slight roundedness will actually make your corner sharper once it's turned out. Clip the corners.
- Turn the blanket right side out through the opening.
I didn't use a lining for this one which is why you don't see the red/pink flannel (it was only later I decided it needed a bit more weight).
- Take your time to push the corners out gently so they're nice and sharp.
- Press the blanket flat, tucking in the seam allowance from the opening.
- Topstitch around the entire blanket. One final press and you're done! Well done!
Now, have a little snuggle with it – don't you wish you made one for yourself as well??! These make the sweetest newborn baby gifts and they tick both the function and beauty boxes in equal measure.
Another great thing about these blankets is that they're ideal of making 'assembly line' fashion so if you have lots of gifts to give (uh-hum, Christmas is only 78 days away!) then, once you get going, you can churn out a few in one sitting.
As you can see, I couldn't stop at just one.
So, do you have many newborns or babies in need of some spoiling? I hope you're feeling inspired! Thanks for reading. Oh, and feel free to contact me with any questions.

HF 20 ton shop press
I'm thinking about buying a Harbor Freight 20 ton shop press. It's listed in this month's HF flyer at $199.99. I'm not sure if I can use that 20% coupon on it since I cannot read the teenie weenie small print on the coupon but if I can that would bring it down to around $160.00.
I have a 6 ton a-frame press that I bought at Northern Tools a number of years ago and I have used it for several things but it's just too small for most stuff. Is a 20 ton big enough to be used for most applications? It looks small enough to not take up a great amount of space. The price is reasonable.
I have had one of those things for several years now and it is one of HF's better buys, dirt cheap for what it does and yes you can use the coupon. I don't know how they can sell that much hardware for that price but they do and it's a very handy addition to the shop, you won't even come close to beating that price anywhere! Mine has been pushed to the max a bunch of times and there are no signs of frame bending nor does the ram leak, overall it is a real bargain.
I've got an A/C Delco 20 ton which likely came from the same chinese sweat shop and I can say if you break it, you're not doing regular DIY stuff. I've put some serious loads on it in my business with no complaints from it. HF may be different, but from a 20 ton point, it's fine for me.

Half-Naked at 2300m
Trip Start Jul 05, 2006

Map your own trip!

Show trip route
Hide lines
We had to hike uphill, from our drop off point at 2300m, for about half an hour to our starting point on the Rio Catherina in our swim wear, wearing a helmet and carrying a rucksack - an odd sight! There we donned our wet-suits and harnesses before heading off downhill in the river - walking where it was too shallow and basically going with the flow where we could, hoping that the next meeting between the backside and a big rock wouldn�t be too severe. We had to abseil down three waterfalls - sheer drops of 10m, 20m and 30m.
Abseiling isn�t so bad but when you are trying to contend with gallons of water continuously pounding your body its a different story. I got caught under the flow of the second waterfall for what felt like a few minutes and I found it extremely difficult to breath with the sheer volume of water around me and of course the cold. The water is cold enough on its own but when its flowing past you at a ferocious rate the body temperature drops quite quickly even with a wetsuit. We also had a few free-fall jumps in some areas of the river which were leaps of faith in every respect. In one particular jump we had to jump down 3m into the water flowing through a 1m wide crevice. We had no idea how deep it was, and it required a very controlled jump so that you didn�t hit the wall at either side. We just had to trust the knowledge of our guide completely. He said it was 2m deep, but at a guess I would have said no more than half a meter and not a safe jump. So off I went and Sinead followed. I stepped off the rock, plunged into the water, put my hands out after I hit the water to stop myself colliding with the wall and was spat out of the crevice by the water within seconds - a real adrenaline rush!
We both had big stupid smiles on our faces for the entire evening wondering if we really just did that. Canyoning has to be one of the best extreme sports and we�re looking forward to more!!

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
The Celtics are off to a good start to the preseason, going 2-0 while playing their games in Europe. They defeated the defending-Atlantic Division Champion Toronto Raptors 89-85 in Rome earlier in the month, and defeated a familiar foe in the Minnesota Timberwolves 92-81 in London last week. Now the C's head back home for the first time this season, opening play in the TD BankNorth Garden against the division rival New York Knicks.
This will be one of six meetings between the two teams this season. The game tomorrow night will be in Boston and the second preseason game will be in New York on 10/22. The remaining four games during the regular season will be split between the two cities. The first regular season matchup between the teams is Thursday, 11/29.
What They Said
Paul Pierce:
"I expect it to feel like a regular season game. These guys are anxious to see the home floor. They haven't seen the Garden yet [this season]. We've been gone in Rome and London and we haven't been home yet."
Isiah Thomas:
"Well, I'm sure [the Celtics' new additions] will be good. Those three guys, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett, they are three pretty special players. They'll figure out ways to play well together."
Key Matchup
Kevin Garnett vs. Zach Randolph
Important Injuries
Boston: Tony Allen (knee) is doubtful for tomorrow's game. Scot Pollard (ankle) has been ruled out with inflammation in his ankle. There is no timetable for his return.
New York: Eddy Curry (right labral tear) is probable, Jerome James (left knee tendinitis) is questionable, and Renaldo Balkman (right ankle stress reaction) is out.
Again, I feel the Celtics are a stronger unit than the Knicks. While NY may have more muscle up front (the C's are weak especially with the Pollard injury), I feel that they have no answer to the play of Paul Pierce and Ray Allen. Expect either or both of those players to have big games. Garnett will be busy on the glass, but may not put up as many points as we're used to seeing.
Final Prediction: Celtics by 8.

Bah! We have Allan Houston now…

Al Gore on Climate Change Risk
Do stock prices reflect the risks of climate change?
Investors need to examine the longer-term issues [and] integrate sustainability factors. There are very big problems that should cause all participants in markets to think long and hard about how those problems can be remedied. In hydrofracking for gas or oil in the state of Texas, for example, each new well requires 6 million gallons of water, and many of them are now active in counties that have extreme water shortages. The absence of a price on water carries the risk of misleading investors and CEOs into ignoring the value of water.
You've compared climate change risk to subprime mortgages?
"Subprime carbon assets" have an asserted value based on the assumption that it's perfectly OK to put 90 million tons of global warming pollution into the atmosphere every 24 hours. Actually it's not. But just as with subprime mortgages, when the rating agencies [showed] clouded judgment and put AAA ratings on the securities, a lot of holders of carbon assets have been giving money to liars-for-hire to put out pseudoscientific reports that assert reality is not reality.
So oil and gas companies are today's equivalent of subprime lenders?
The value of subprime mortgages was based on a false assumption. All of these carbon fuel reserves [are] based on a similarly absurd assumption that is being systematically reinforced by some—not all—of the holders of those assets, who are engaged in a systematic effort to convince markets and the public of a falsehood. — As told to Simon Clark

Desert Mirage High School principal speaks on job loss
Principal Marrio Walker says he was only told district wanted to go in new direction
THERMAL, Calif. - As more than 100 students and parents protested administrative cuts at the Coachella Valley Unified School District board meeting, one of the people now without a job watched quietly.
"In my 12 years as an administrator, I've never done anything illegal, immoral, unethical. Nor did my team," former Desert Mirage High School principal Dr. Marrio Walker said.
He and Desert Mirage High School vice principal Max Friedman and Coachella Valley High School principal, Mary Velasco, lost their jobs.
"I have no idea, it would be speculation at this point," Walker said.
He joins hundreds of angry parents and students -- also with no idea why they're out a principal.
"Kids are supposed to feel safe with going to the principal and counselors, and how can we do that when they're constantly being switched in and out of the schools?"
Dr. Walker clarified his situation. After the district told him it is going in another direction with leadership...
"I was not fired, I submitted my resignation Monday. I'm going to be looking at other options outside the district when my contract ends," Walker said.
It ends in just a few months, June 30th. He will not finish out the year, though.
"We obviously wish it was handled differently, end of the year instead of mid year, but it's their decision and their right," he said. "I'm disappointed for our staff. We were doing a lot of great things."
With pride, Dr. Walker recalled his team's contributions to desert mirage.
"We've raised test scores, more students passing, more students getting into college," he said.
"I will never forget and will forever be grateful to this community," he said.

Traveling Outside Underarm Turn
The beginning of the turn --
Watch where the leader goes.
He circles here and...
...reconnects here.
Morley: This is the most difficult figure in the group. The key is for the leader to start the lead of the lady turning by herself with your back to the center, but you should try to be ahead of her when you pick her up to continue the basic step.
DT: That means she is turning more than a full turn, more than 360 degrees before the pick-up?
Morley: Slightly.
DT: What is the gender balance in Polka -- I should say in the mid-Atlantic and northeastern United States?
Morley: Well, currently, most people come to the polka dances with partners. There is not a lot of mixing. When anyone wants to dance with a lady who has a partner, they ask permission of the partner.
Monique: I never really thought about that, but I realize that that is very consistent. People who want to dance with a lady ask the gentleman and they dance one or two dances with that person.
Morley: And they usually bring the lady back to the gentleman.
Monique: So, yeah, they take you and they bring you back.

What I'm reading now…
I finally found a few free moments to finish reading Katherine Boo's Behind the Beautiful Forevers, this year's winner of the National Book Award for non-fiction. Boo spent four years interviewing and observing the people who lived in a slum behind the international airport in Mumbai, India.
When I began reading the book I was a bit confused. Wait. This is non-fiction? Boo writes as if she's in the heads of the "characters" in her book. Here's a passage from the second page, when Abdul, a teen boy, is hiding from the police:
"He didn't like the moon, though: full and stupid bright, illuminating a dusty open lot in front of his home. Across the lot were the shacks of two dozen other families, and Abdul feared he wasn't the only person peering out from behind the cover of a plywood door."
After I let go of my this-isn't-non-fiction bias, the book flew by, as if—I know this sounds ridiculous—it was a novel. The reader gets to know several of the inhabitants of the Annawadi slum and hope and dream with them as their lives go up and down. During the time Boo wrote this book the economic slump severely affected these people who lived on the edge of society. Suicide was the way out for a few and others were murdered by drug gangs or hauled off to prison on trumped up charges.
One of the problems I sometimes have with biographical non-fiction is the distance the author takes, the omniscient narrator in charge of the direction of the narrative. In Behind the Beautiful Forevers Boo completely gets rid of that distance. I was living in Annawadi, in a hut where rats often bit my face and the sewage lake in front of my hut lapped up to my doorstep during the rainy season. I was appalled by the corruption of the police and politicians but almost came to accept it as an inevitable fact of life, as the inhabitants of Annawadi knew it was.
Of course it took a huge amount of research and brilliant writing to get me out of my comfortable middle-class American armchair and walking through the mud with the garbage pickers of Annawadi. I highly recommend this book as a way to "become" one of the dispossessed of India. Here's Boo in her Author's Note, explaining why she put "words in the mouth" of some of people in this book:
"Although I was mindful of the risk of overinterpretation, it felt more distortive to devote my attention to the handful of Annawadians who possessed a verbal dexterity that might have provided more colorful quotes. Among overworked people, many of whom spent the bulk of their days working silently with waste, everyday language tended to be transactional. It did not immediately convey the deep, idiosyncratic intelligences that emerged forcefully over the course of nearly four years."
Boo does a brilliant job of presenting through the lens of one small slum, the problems of inequity in booming India. Boo has also received awards for her work in poor communities in the USA. I may look up those articles. Behind the Beautiful Forevers is Boo's first book. I'm glad I discovered her voice, and thankful to the SLU library's browsing section, and to book reviews, of which I read many!

Members of Llanberis mountain rescue team were alerted at 1530 GMT after 45-year-old man slipped whilst walking with friends.
He fell about 40ft (12m) from the top of the Zig Zag path, just 30 minutes from the 3,560ft (1,085m) summit.
An RAF Sea King helicopter from Valley in Anglesey was unable to winch him aboard because of extreme turbulence.
The man, who had to be carried down the mountain, was believed to have suffered a leg injury.
A total of 19 members of Llanberis mountain rescue team took part in the rescue.
They took the casualty down the mountain by a circuitous route to meet a LandRover on the Llanberis path. He was then driven to an ambulance and taken to hospital.

It's another 2 part update today for Super Smash Bros Brawl. First there's a reworking of the Donkey Kong theme by Hirokazu Tanaka:
The second part of the update is about Widescreen support in the game. SSBB supports both traditional 4:3 as well as 16:9 Widescreen.
So er guys, you wanna fight?
Did you feel that? I think we got wider.

#1 Peach Fan said:
Love the Donkey Kong theme.
Super King said:
Woah, Mario and Snake changed position. I really like this new theme, it's kind of funky. But I really hope they bring back the DK Rap because that was the best video game music EVER.
WiiNinja said:
Snake and Mario switched places.
pichu fan said:
I like the song. Mario, Sonic and Snake should fight, it will make the fight of the year.
wiicloud9 said:
Wider is totally better.
ssbbssbbssbb said:
I can't wait to try this on my 1080p widescreen tv.
GVH said:
I think that's the first screen I've seen with snake in a match.
Aeth said:
Well at least they gave us some music to listen to while reading yet another pointless update. It's nice they included widescreen compatibility but it's not worth posting it up. If they are trying to hold back the awesome updates to stir up excitement then they are about to pass "stirring up excitement" and about to enter "getting everyone angry".
insultman911 said:
Dk music sounds more donkey kongish.
Ozzyopolis said:
Hooray! Now if only it were in HD.
DragonFoxCoon said:
Widescreen, cool. DK music, sweet.
Bored said:
You've got to love wide screen.
RisingPhoenix said:
Widescreen is ALWAYS better, ALWAYS! And the DK theme doesn't really sound DKish. Oh and Sonic stands really cool.
Aeth said:
Actually the Donkey Kong music sounds like the ones from the Game & Watch era.
Scooby Jew said:
I don't even know what genre to attempt to classify that theme, so I won't! I'll just say it's awesome and I can't wait to hear some more of that musicians' work. The widescreen feature is basically a must these days, so it's not really a completely unexpected update.
Dark Star said:
The music was nice but I have to say that the widescreen in the game was one of the most bland updates yet. That is something coming from me. I had no complaint even about the how to play updates.
Super King said:
I'm pretty sure they are posting useless updates because they expected the game to come out in a week. Instead, they have 2 more months worth of updates they need to come up with, so they got to post filler.
theykilledkenny said:
I think they already have passed getting everyone angry with FOUR WEEKS of no NEW characters. I mean, even a veteran everyone hates would be okay. But anyway, that was the best music that they gave us ever, which made today a whole lot better.
BrothaZ said:
16:9, yay.
S0NICGunman said:
Nice update, as I know many people had questions about widescreen. By the way, I noticed that in the background of the Donkey Kong theme, there was music from the arcade game, so could this mean we are going to get an old skool ladder and barrel arena reminiscent of the Donkey Kong arcade game?
Nintendoof said:
Love the start of DK's music.
Nickhead said:
DK's theme sounds classic.
RisingPhoenix said:
I understand that these bland updates are just fillers but I REALLY want to see a veteran character update. The last veteran was Ice Climbers, three months ago. Where's Captain Falcon?
EDD said:
That song is so awesome.
Senpai said:
YES! Another game that won't look funny on my tv! Good ole Nintendo making my component cables.
frogman said:
I hear you RisingPheonix, we need a new veteran confirmation. Captain Falcon and Luigi will be in, but all this time without any sign of the captain or the man in green has me worried. I presume they will be secret characters but I would like to see them on the website before the game comes out so that I may finally sleep well. I wish, for once, that Luigi will finally be part of the initial band of veteran characters we get. I hate the suspense of waiting for his appearance to be announced on the website, and when none is given I start to panic (I fondly remember waiting for melee). It is called Super Smash BROTHERS after all, its not like he's really a "secret" character if everyone knows that he's going to be in.

When air temperatures cool, days shorten, and tree leaves begin to show their fall colors, it is time locally and in the Bay Area for the sounds of Handel's "Messiah."
As in years past, conductor Jay Trottier of Fairfield will lead the orchestra and choristers in a series of free performances in Vacaville, Fairfield and Oakland.
The German-born composer's best-known work, "Messiah" is an oratorio, written in a fury of activity in 1741. Its lyrics include passages from the Jewish Bible, the New Testament and the Prayer Book Psalter. A Baroque era classic, its most famous passage is the "Hallelujah Chorus," sung not only by performers but, often, also by audience members.
Chorus rehearsals are Sunday nights, from 6 to 8 p.m., Nov. 3 to Dec. 1, in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 311 Alamo Drive, Vacaville.
Performances are 7:30 p.m. Dec. 6 in Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, 2700 Dover Ave., Fairfield; at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 8 in St. Mary's Church, 350 Stinson Ave., Vacaville; and 7 p.m. Dec. 15 in the Oakland Temple Hill Auditorium, 4780 Lincoln Ave., Oakland.
For more information, call Trottier, call 429-1329.

need help on a 72 Vette/removing front clip
I have done some research and know the glue is on the hood surround near the windshield, on the cowl near the rear of the door, and at the front of the cowl. Oh, and the bottom of the fender.
I have a few questions about this...
1) it seems like I should remove the fender apron to get better access to the front of the cowl being the engine is in the car, or should I? And if not, seems like it would come off nice by leaving the apron, rad support, and frame horns on to provide natural bracing as it sits off the car.
2) I have learned that there should be 43" from the rear bolt on the hood hinge to the tip of the hood surround in order to get good or decent gaps. I also wouldn't think that's exact so on mock up I will probably have them loose and mark it where the aprons need to be glued to the clip after getting the hood on and nice gaps. Any thoughts on this? And should I glue the aprons on before installing the clip or after?
I have a very rough idea on how to do this but these cars are so different that I'd like to gain some confidence in hearing about this from experienced Vette tech. I may go visit a couple of Vette sites and put out some feelers on there too. Even though I'm going on vacation I can relay this info back to the guys. Any advice or tips appreciated....and no I'm not gonna make some video acting like I'm the Vettespert, I'll be sure to note I'm pretty clueless on these cars and give you a shout on the video, if you care.
Put the drugs down and step away from the vehicle, now. There is no plausible reason to take the nose off a '72 Vette except serious impact damage. WTF are you doing and WTF are you doing it?
"I have done some research and know the glue is on the hood surround near the windshield, on the cowl near the rear of the door, and at the front of the cowl. Oh, and the bottom of the fender."
Oh and around the lower fender vents and oh, for the bonding strips. Oh while we're at it the glue is much stronger than the panels on either side, you will be breaking panels trying to remove them.
"1) it seems like I should remove the fender apron to get better access to the front of the cowl being the engine is in the car..."
Yep, if you're insane. The aprons hold all the pieces of the nose in alignment, bloody nightmare to refit if you remove them.
"I have a very rough idea on how to do this but these cars are so different that I'd like to gain some confidence in hearing about this from experienced Vette tech."
You're correct, they were built like no other car out there. ALL of the parts must be aligned in 3 dimensional space before the glue sets. ALL of the parts affect ALL of the other parts. There is no adjustment after the glue sets.
Step away from the car and don't even start this.
I have a similar project to the o.p.'s, the front had to come off partly due to enough minor damage to warrant replacing it with a better one, and partly due to that it was coming apart anyway. The glue was not stronger than the panels, at least in my case...it all peeled apart the rest of the way pretty easy. So it had to be done.
Regarding install:
Watching a front end going back on at a 'Vette shop (once, so I'm not the expert), it seems to me: 1. Yep, that glue sets and you're screwed if you didn't do it right 2. It's at-least a two-man job and preferrably more, working fast and having a clue as to what you're doing 3. There has to be blocks, alignment holes for Clecos, straight edges to check for level plane between panels and whatever else in place to make sure it goes down right, also clamps and more clamps. Note also that wherever glue was going to go, things needed to be ground down for clean adhesion and also to give some room for the new glue which is kinda thick stuff.
I would get the thing mocked up straight with all your measurements and gaps good, drill some Cleco holes, set up whatever else to hold things straight, and plan on doing a few actual practice runs w/ a volunteer crew of buddies, and practice also with bonding just straight pieces of fiberglass or wood together to get a feeling for how the glue works, and to check is it setting strong enough.
Edit: to address the original question, again in my case it all just came right off the firewall area but the rest I left together on both my original and replacement clip. If you needed pics of it apart to see where the firewall bonding areas are, I could provide.
Last edited by kso; 07-31-2013 at 08:11 AM.
yeah, I know about lining it up and screwing it in and I also hear you can move it around with a jack under the support and a tie down from the cowl to push it in or move it out. I have plenty of pics but thanks for your response. So it looks like I'll leave the apron in and readjust the one that's off the mark when the clip is off the car. did you have decent access w/ the engine in or out?
so i guess my next question is, do have a measurement of 43" from the middle of your rear hood hinge bolt to the front edge of your hood surround on each side?
In my case, what I have and what I've seen is with the engine out so I couldn't say how it'd be with it in.
Re: the 43", I'll have to check when I get a chance. Maybe later today.
thanks man. I think the boss wants to take the engine out anyways.

Allen West Scf Starter
Hi Does Anyone Know How To Wire An Old Allen West Scf Starter ,i Need To Know What The Input Single Phase Wires Connect To And What The 3 Phase Output Wires Connect To .
The Terminals Inside Are Marked L1/l2/l3/c Those Terminals Are On The Top,and On The Front Above Each Dashpots Is Marked A/b.
The Starter No Is J949b36
Hp .5
Volts 200-250
Amps 3.5/4.2~50
Thats All The Info I Can Give So If Anyone Can Help Its The Stop/start Switch For My Compressor, Any Help Would Be Appreciated Thankyou
Your not in the US right? I Googled your starter and found zero. Tell me what you are trying to do and I might be able to help you. If you are converting single phase to three phase, I can hook you up in a snap.
hi i could not find anything here either and no im in the uk.my starter that came with the compressor states PH1 on the side so i presume that means single phase but the motor is 3 phase ,so i was guessing that its single phase feed which the starter then transforms to 3phase output.
the compressor is a 1970s atlas capco with a danfoss regulator

empire network is not a ripoff
SUBMITTED: Friday, November 08, 2013POSTED: Friday, November 08, 2013
I don't know who these people talked to at empire network but I've delt with Wayne dryer and also the Dave wood and a few others and I have never had a single problem with them. I purchased a couple things from them and soon afterwards fell on hard times and couldn't afford it and I contacted wayne and I was given a full refund without any problem what so ever and as soon as I straighten things out in my life I plan on going back. I was also allowed to stay on but I don't care for hand outs so I passed. but when I can afford it I will be back .they are very good to there people and if you had problems maybe it was on your part and not there's. also I am no way affiliated with them. I just fet tired of only hearing one sided stories .also maybe before people pull out there credit card make sure you want and can handle what your buying instead of critisizing after you figure out you don't want to do it. in my opinion empire network is a very good company to deal with

Food Poisoning in Mexico
Traveler advisories and reported cases of food poisoning and foodborne illness in Mexico.
Have you fallen ill from food or drink, had food poisoning in Mexico, or know the details of another traveler who has? Please submit information about what was consumed, where, or what others should avoid consuming.
True food poisoning occurs when a person ingests a contaminating chemical or a natural toxin, while most cases of foodborne illness are caused by a variety of foodborne pathogenic bacteria, viruses, or parasites that contaminate food. Such contamination usually arises from improper handling, preparation, or food storage.
Symptoms typically begin several hours to several days after ingestion and can include one or more of the following: nausea, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, fever, headache, or fatigue. In most cases the body is able to permanently recover after a short period of acute discomfort and illness. However, foodborne illness can result in permanent health problems or even death, especially in babies, young children, pregnant women (and their fetuses), elderly people, sick people and others with weak immune systems.
It's typically in the best interest of a business to keep their customers healthy, but is there a particular restaurant or market in Mexico that you know of which consistently has problems with health and hygiene? Are there any food or drink items that travelers should exercise extreme caution with while visiting Mexico?

Artillery lumbered through the streets of Windsor on Jan. 28, 1932, as the first step in the demolition of the old Post Office.
The old Crimean gun, which has graced the lawn back of the building for many years, was moved to its new resting place in City Hall Park.
It was a heavy job, the bronze gun being carried on a special trailer attached to a motor truck. It was necessary to cut away the curb skirting, the driveway in the rear of the Post Office before the moving could take place.
The photo shows workmen unloading part of the stone foundation at City Hall Park.

ZZZ-RETIRED Fourth Universalist Society in New York Reaches Out to the Unchurched: People of Faith Respond to September 11, 2001
The Fourth Universalist Society in New York City is an old congregation—founded in 1838—it dates back to the time when Universalist orators inspired the faithful to hold on to the saving message that all are chosen for salvation. Located at 160 Central Park West, the congregation in more recent years has seen hard times—declining membership, dwindling involvement of young families—and the church has survived by renting out its space to civic groups and preschools in the area.
Into that congregation came its new minister, Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt, who moved with her family into the parsonage, enrolled her children in new schools, and held the first gathering of the fall church year on Sunday, September 10 with the 104 voting members of the Society. It would have been a nice calm start-up for a new ministry, McNatt reflected, if events hadn't taken a very unexpected and tragic turn on the morning of September 11, 2001.
When the explosions that ripped through the World Trade Center occurred on that day, McNatt found herself heading out onto the street with the church's administrator and custodian. They set up a table, six chairs, for people who were fleeing the lower east side to rest at. They got all the bottled water in the church, all the ice, and cups, and began passing out water as people came by in droves. McNatt, who had retrieved her children from their schools, got the children involved as well, and then, as other church members arrived to help, started counseling those who flooded through the doors of the church, now wide open, to light candles, pray, talk to the minister.
In between, she planned services, made flyers with the staff who then joined members in spreading them through the neighborhood, announcing a vigil on Friday night. One hundred and seventy-five people attended the vigil, and the Swami of the neighborhood's Vedanta Society came for the service too. Those gathered prayed, lit candles, shared food in the parish hall. A labyrinth had been offered to the church and was set up that night as well. As another meditative tool, many chose to walk it in silence. The earth-centered spirituality group had also scheduled a ritual of the moon; all these practices drew participants and the thanks and interest of the neighborhood.
"No one in the congregation is untouched [by this tragedy]," said McNatt. Not directly affected, perhaps, but everyone knew someone who had suffered a loss. McNatt, a member of the crisis intervention team at her children's school, went to the school to help counsel.
One of the teachers lost her fiancé (a worker at the investment firm of Morgan Stanley). McNatt said, "I try to reassure [the children]…my five-year-old asked this morning, 'are they going to bomb our house too?' You have to speak age appropriately, different things to the eight-year-old than the five-year-old. I want to be honest with them without scaring them. I can say to my kids, 'there are all kinds of people all over the world working hard to make sure that this doesn't happen again.' What they want to know is that you love them and that you will be with them."
But reassurance is not easy in light of such terror. "The thing that freaked me out," McNatt said, "[was that] there were at least five parents in the school who are alive today because they were in the second tower and ignored the reassurances that everything was fine. That's the kind of stuff that makes you want to fall apart…the sense of trying to minister to people who feel a sense of doom, and the complete shaking of their foundation, literally and figuratively, while you deal with your own sense of that…"
But ministry calls, and reaching out to people is what Rosemary Bray McNatt has done all week. On Sunday, September 17, Fourth Universalist was filled with 240 people—at least half, McNatt believes, had never been to church before. Here is the sermon they heard on Sunday.
Sermon: Turning Around
"We need to turn away from vengeance, from the cries for carpet bombing and the demonization of entire groups of people. We need to turn toward the support and protection of human beings whose only crime this morning is having been born in the Middle East, and who are being threatened, chased, harassed and tormented."
—Rev. Rosemary Bray McNatt
It has been a week unlike any other.
Ever since crazed terrorists destroyed the World Trade Center, along with thousands of lives, ever since our television screens and radio airwaves have been filled with the unspeakable images of twisted steel and pulverized marble, ever since we were introduced vicariously to the all-too-brief lives of men and women and children who left their homes never to return, we have lived as witnesses to a nightmare. Who could have imagined waking to a day as beautiful as September 11 and ending the day with the world in shock? Even now, five days later, I consider the facts, that a landmark is crumbled into the lower Manhattan streets, that 5,000 people who were alive this time last week lay buried there this week, and I cannot wrap my mind around it. I look at the replays of the second airplane piercing the shell of the South Tower, and I cannot grasp it. In any other country on earth, this destruction would automatically qualify as an act of war. Indeed, the drumbeats of war, of more destruction, of more death, have already begun with a fierceness that frightens me. If you doubt me, let me share these words, excerpted from page three of The New York Post, written for the edition of Thursday, September 13.
"America bleeds. This is war...The men behind the men who rained havoc on New York and Washington need to be called to account. The heavens need to fall on their heads. They need to bleed. Not next month. Not next week. Now. Who are they? Who cares? Locate them. Pinpoint them. Bomb them. And then bomb their smoldering rubble-one more time! America has the means. All that's missing is the call to arms. The weight of America's military might-just short of nuclear oblivion-needs to be visited on those who planned and executed Tuesday's attacks. America's enemies believe that they are on a fast track to heaven. Which is fine. Dispatch enough of them on the journey with no return, and this war will end quickly enough. Bombs away."
At the same time that elements in our city and our country call for mass destruction of an enemy we cannot see, we have seen here in New York an unquenchable spirit, a hunger toward life and love and community that has warmed the heart of the world. Whatever small thing there is to do in the wake of this disaster, we New Yorkers have pledged our hands and hearts to the task. The tireless work of men and women at ground zero continuing to search for what may no longer exist—survivors. The generous spirit of ordinary men and women giving all they have and all they can carry to shelters, firehouses and police stations. The churches and synagogues and mosques and temples filled with people who cry not for vengeance, not for peace at any price, but for justice and accountability. In the face of almost unimaginable death, person after person here chooses life.
How bittersweet an irony that we stand amid these horrific events just before the start of the Days of Awe, the most important of all Jewish holidays, holidays unique because they are not tied to historical events for the Jewish people. These ten days that begin at sundown tomorrow encompass both Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement. It is a period in which Jews throughout the world focus on their lives, take inventory of their behavior during the previous year, ask forgiveness for those they have wronged and for sins against God, and repent.
In his book, "The Jewish Way: Living the Holidays," Rabbi Irving Greenberg writes of this time: " The tone of the Days of Awe is basically hopeful, even joyful. This period seeks nothing less than the removal of sin and the renewal of love. Those who confront their own guilt and failure in human and divine relationships—in the context of community oneness and divine forgiveness—can correct errors, develop new patterns, renew life."
What is most touching, most moving about this holiday for me is the centrality of the concept of repentance. That is a word that makes many of us cringe, in part because of the way it has always been used in traditional Christian culture. We hear the word and think of debasement, of unworthiness, of depravity. Many of us here first found our way to Unitarian Universalist congregations like this one so that we could stop feeling tortured by the faiths of our childhood, faiths that used repentance like a weapon against our very souls.
Yet the true meaning of repentance is not death dealing, but life-giving. To repent is to turn, to change direction. And as Rabbi Greenberg writes, "To turn is to be reborn. The power of sin—and of bad patterns—is that it convinces people that change is impossible. People despair of their ability to change and give up the capacity to grow or renew. The promise of repentance challenges this hopelessness," the rabbi continues. "There is a process of rebirth, but it needs attention, effort and help."
In these past few days, our lives have materially changed. We have had our sense of safety destroyed, our confidence in life shaken, our peace of mind shattered. Joy has given way to fear, or resignation, or despair, or panic, or all of the above. Day after day, we found ourselves turning toward death, not only the tragic and senseless deaths of those buried under twisted steel, but the death watch being kept by our leaders as they plant the seeds meant to prepare us for the devastation they believe lies just ahead.
We are told to prepare for a long struggle; we are told that someone will pay; we are told that we will have to give up some of our freedoms so that we might protect our safety. On every newscast and every interview, images of destruction, words of fear, pronouncements of a permanently altered world rise up to meet us. And the most pervasive sense amid it all is that what is to come is inevitable, that we have no choices, that we face either humiliating invasion and mass destruction, or that we cause the mass destruction of others.
We need to turn. First, we can turn toward the precious gift life is. Hardest to bear in all the news accounts were the stories of the last-minute phone calls and emails from doomed men and women whose last thoughts were of those things and people that make our lives worth living: the love of friends and family, the connections between us that celebrate life. We can turn toward life and embrace those who have joined their lives with ours. We can refuse to take them for granted for a single moment.
We need to turn. We need to turn away from vengeance, from the cries for carpet bombing and the demonization of entire groups of people. We need to turn toward the support and protection of human beings whose only crime this morning is having been born in the Middle East, and who are being threatened, chased, harassed and tormented. We need to turn away from the idea that there is some country somewhere that we should be turning into a parking lot. We need to turn toward the possibility that the governments and the peoples of this earth can bring wrongdoers to justice and accountability. We need to turn away from solutions to the threat of terror that will reawaken the terror within our own borders, and that risk bringing us dangerously closer to the people we oppose. We need to turn toward the reality that we face years of sacrifice and uncertainty as we work to defeat this threat to human life and safety and dignity.
Most difficult of all, we need to turn toward our enemy, whoever that group or groups is found to be. There will be a time when we will identify the people who have done this terrible, terrible thing. And we will be faced with choices about what to do next. Most of us will be incapable of forgiving any group of people who could cause such sorrow and loss. But we are, I believe, capable of deciding whether hate and anger will control our lives and our future as a nation. We are capable of deciding whether we continue to cry out for the swift satisfaction of revenge, or whether we are willing to settle for the more complex reality of justice. I believe that we can turn some day, turn even to that.
As a people, we are nowhere close to that day. Repentance of such magnitude is a process, not an event. The gaping wound to our nation's heart is too deep and too new. We will never forget this day, or the weeks that follow it. We will never be able to put these horrible events behind us and move on. None of us have ever walked this road before, and so we cannot yet know where it may lead us. But we do know this: There are those in this world who, in the face of terrible wrongs done to them, and terrible losses endured by them, have turned their backs on the psychic death that might easily have claimed them. In spite of everything, they chose life.
In this week of sorrow for the whole world, may these remarkable and blessed people, with the capacity for such abundant life, be our guides this hour. In spite of our angry hearts, in spite of our bitter tears, may we accept this challenge to repent, to turn toward this precious life. Amen.

Earthquake repair work and Auckland house building could boost New Zealand's $8.9 billion building sector and turn the downturn into a new growth phase.
A report out today from consultants BIS Shrapnel's forecast activity through to 2017, calculating how rebuilding efforts would cause a big change.
Adeline Wong, senior project manager, predicted activity levels would rise 50 per cent in the year to March, 2013, mainly due to Christchurch and Auckland house-building activity.
Grant Porteous, whose Deacon Homes has the master franchise New Zealand's biggest house builder G.J.Gardner, predicted that business would put up 580 houses this year, similar in 2013 but then at least 900 in 2014.
He agrees that demand in Auckland and Christchurch would be key drivers in the next few years and sees some changes in buying habits.
A four-bedroom 146sq m $170,000 G.J.Gardner house with all services provided, advertised as the Amrita Express special, was selling well, he said. Land was not included in that package but that house was popular in Auckland.
"People's expectations are changing about what they have in a home. They are saying 'do I need such an extreme house?'," he said, predicting some group house builders would leave the sector and that rationalisation was inevitable. The Christchurch rebuild had forced up labour rates up and he knew of electricians being paid $65 an hour.
"Labour rates in Christchurch will escalate and trades from other parts of New Zealand will be drawn there," Porteous said.
BIS said reconstruction in Christchurch and a rebound in activity elsewhere would push annual consent values to historical high levels during the five-year period to 2016/17, with annual average consent value at about $10 billion, BIS said, although this could be higher when all earthquake damage claims were processed.
Remediation work on leaky homes and schools is also expected to contribute to the building sector growth over the forecast period.
"Dwelling consents are forecast to rebound from 20-year-plus low of less than 15,000 units per annum in the past two years, to peak at 25,500 units in 2014/15. At this level, it still remains below the annual average of 30,000 units over the boom years of 2003 to 2005.
"This lower activity level is ascribed to higher construction cost resulting from earthquake reconstruction in Christchurch, which will constrain building activity in other regions in the country.
"Also, outside of Christchurch, building activity is expected to soften as home affordability worsens again in 2015, due to rising house prices and mortgage rates.
"As a result of supply shortage, especially in Auckland, house prices are expected to again escalate once demand for houses gathers momentum," the forecast said.
"Although affordability will continue to act as a drag on building activity in the second half of the outlook period, a shortage of housing supply and a reversal back to net overseas migration gains will underscore house prices, especially in Auckland and Wellington.
"Christchurch reconstruction will provide a major boost to the non-residential building sector over the five-year forecast period.
"We also expect a pick-up in new building and refurbishment activity in the warehouse, factory and office building sectors in the North Island over the coming years in response to stronger economic growth," the report said.
Figures from Statistics New Zealand show how the sector peaked in 2007 when building consents worth $12.4 billion were issued. In the latest period to December last year, consents for work worth $8.9 billion were issued.
Building consents issued nationally:

ANC MPs must apologise to South Africans one by one: Cope
The Congress of the People (Cope) wants them to do it "by stepping up to the podium' one by one".
The party's Dennis Bloem said it is an "opportune time" for the African National Congress (ANC) members of Parliament to tell "the nation that they are sorry" for misleading them' and "apologise unconditionally to the public protector".
Bloem said he hopes the ANC's Cedric Frolick and Mathole Motshekga' who chaired the "fraud" ad-hoc committee on Nkandla and portfolio committee on justice respectively' "will lead their colleagues in this regard".
"They have all been deeply shamed and exposed'" he claimed.
"Their credibility is destroyed. Now is the time for them to begin redeeming themselves."
Frolick and Motshekga also featured on the list of the dozen "most dishonourable MPs " named by Bloem on Monday for being the ANC's representatives on the ad hoc committee to "process Police Minister Nathi Nhleko's report on the excessive upgrades at the Nkandla residence of President Jacob Zuma".
"The manner in which they processed the report shows that they were bum suckers' not honourable members of Parliament alive to their responsibilities to the nation'" Bloem said then.
On Tuesday' Bloem said "had warned the ANC and opposition parties very loudly not to participate in that illegal ad hoc Nkandla ad hoc committee".
"We warned them that by participating in that committee they would be undermining the Constitution of the country and impeding the powers of the public protector. "All of them ignored our call. Cope is vindicated. The president caved in at the Constitutional Court fearing a declaratory order [saying he had failed in his constitutional obligations] being made against him." Cope's president Mosiuoa Lekota will participate in Tuesday's debate.

Before discussing how to buy Ethereum, or an Ethereum Wallet, it is necessary to find out exactly what Ethereum is. The fact is, Ethereum is a new crypto-currency. To make things even clearer, it's important to define the term Crypto-Currency.
Defining Cryptocurrency
A cryptocurrency is a digital or virtual currency, which has not been issued by a traditional source such as a bank, or any other registered financial institution. Purchases may be made from both online and physical stores using cryptocurrencies as payment. The first viable cryptocurrency was Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is another coin similar to Ethereum, although Ethereum has the reputation of being "better than" Bitcoin.
One of the easiest methods of buying Ethereum is to use Bitcoins, although it may be a complex process to acquire Bitcoins if a cryptocurrency trader does not already own some. To acquire Bitcoins before exchanging them for Ethereum, the prospective trader can use the services of ShapeShift.io, or Poloniex, the altcoin exchange. Kraken, the European cryptocurrency exchange is a place where cryptocurrency traders can either buy Bitcoins and exchange them for Ethereum, or buy Ethereum straight away without exchange for other altcoins.
Ethereum can also be bought from cryptocurrency trading companies such as Bitrush, Bittylicious, Coinimal or Iconomi. To purchase Ethereum from these companies it will probably be necessary for the crypto-trader to use a Debit Card such as GYROPAY, NETELLER, OBT, SEPA or Skrill.
If none of these methods are available to the crypto-trader, he or she may buy Ether with a Credit Card. The best method of doing this is to first purchase Bitcoins from an exchange such as Circle or CoinCorner.
If it is a matter of necessity, a crypto-trader will find it possible to purchase Ethereum through the services of PayPal. This is a round-about method of acquiring Ethereum, because the trader will first have to purchase SSL from VirWox and then follow this step by trading the SSL for Bitcoin.
Yet another method of buying Ethereum is to purchase it with what is called Fiat Currency. This term refers to the various real-world currencies such as the GBP, AUD, USD, the Yuan etc.
Once the crypto-trader has acquired some Ethereum, the safest way to store it is in an Ethereum Wallet. There are several brands of Ethereum Wallet:
Ethereum Wallet is the desktop version of an Ethereum wallet. This wallet accepts Bitcoin and other altcoins. These cryptocurrencies can be stored as ether in an Ethereum Wallet. This wallet has integrated with ShapeShift.io which makes Ethereum transactions easier.
Etherwall is an Ethereum wallet that can be installed with a Geth interface; Geth being a command line which uses, sends, receives and creates contracts with Ethereum. By installing Etherwall with Geth, the crypto-trader is creating an easy method of transacting with the Etherium network.
One option is a Java-scripted Ethereum wallet which can be used to create a safe wallet without the need of a command line such as Geth. It can also be used to create a paper Ethereum wallet, although a paper wallet is not considered to be a secure wallet. This Ethereum wallet can also be created using a Chrome Beta extension, which improves the user interface.
Ethereum Wallet is an Ethereum wallet that is still in the Beta phase and because of this it is not a safe place to store large amounts of Ethereum. This wallet has been developed by a new compnay and it is run on a client-side JavaScript.
Finally, the last option is an Ethereum wallet with enough flexibility to support brain wallets, bulk wallets, single wallets, split wallets and vanity wallets.
Meanwhile, this site is one of the best Ethereum wallets online to securely store Ethereum. This Ethereum wallet is a responsive service that offers a mobile browsing option. Despite the complexity that is normally present in transactions involving Ethereum, this wallet is easy to use. This Ethereum wallet has been designed with security as a primary focus. Crypto-traders will be happy with the frequent back-ups and cold-storage of Ether that this Ethereum wallet provides. Once Ethereum is stored in a secure Ethereum wallet such as this one it is completely immune from government interference and inflationary rates. Another reason to rush your Ethereum into a secure online wallet such as ethereum-wallet is that Ethereum is in relatively short supply. The support team strives to offer absolutely the best Ethereum-based services on the internet. On this site, it is easy to register and create an Ethereum wallet. Interested crypto-traders can just sign up to immediately receive answers to their questions about how to use the site. By creating an Ethereum wallet on this site, crypto-traders will become part a team that is actively helping the community of Ethereum traders to grow and mature.

Borrowing from another thread:
Originally Posted by AG2004I recently borrowed Marshall D. Wright's "The National Association of Base Ball Players, 1857-70," from a local library. Wright's book may represent the only statistical information available from baseball of that era.
Here, I will provided listings from that book for certain star candidates from that era, as well as those already enshrined in the BBF Timeline Hall of Fame.
Some notes about the format I used to give the information:
* The record of a player's team is listed for each year. In 1869 and 1870, the total record and the record against other professional clubs are both given. The city in parentheses refers to the city the club was located in.
* The "Competition" line refers to the area that the team's opponents came from. "NYC Area" takes in New York, Brooklyn, Morrisania (now part of the Bronx), and Northern New Jersey (Hoboken/Jersey City/Newark/etc.).
*From 1857 until 1867, the only information available consists of "runs" and "outs." Anything fewer than 3 outs per game is good. A leadoff hitter might end up with a bit more than 3 outs per game, but Wright's book doesn't give information about batting orders.
* To put the numbers in some context, I quote Wright:
*Finally, after the run, hit, and base totals for each player, I list how good the player was compared to other team members, and note the team's leaders in those categories. Comparing the numbers to NA norms can be misleading because teams did not play standard schedules, and a team's schedule could easily affect the run totals of each player.
*In some cases, I refer to an average and over system. Here's how it works: if Smith scores 33 runs in 10 games, is average would be 3 and 3, or an average of 3 and "3 over." If Smith scored 15 runs in 7 games, he would have an average of 2 runs per game and 1 over.

Half trusses and how to attach them to my house?
1 Attachment(s)
I plan on adding an addition to my house. I hope the following explanation of what I'm trying to accomplish is adequate. I want to add a room to the South side of my house. Obviously, I will need to construct three 2 * 6 walls and the 4th wall is the South side of my house (two story house).
Now my question:
I plan to use half trusses which will run North (house wall) to South (new wall I build). The roof will slope down from North to South. The south end will be the eave end. How do I properly connect the half trusses to my house (larger end of the truss)? Do I install a ledger board on the house and rest the one end of the trusses on top of it and use simpon connectors somehow? Long story short it's kind of like adding a lean-to to the house but it will be enclosed and not archaic. I'm trying the match the asthetics of the garage roof. Image of a half truss below:
Attachment 63459
Why use trusses?
Why not just frame it conventionally?
Most of the 'half trusses' I have used that attach to the wall come with a notch at the bottom where they meet the wall. this notch sits on a 2x4 or 2x6 which gets nailed to the wall.
I thought trusses would be stronger (snow load) and allow for more space when insulating. I thought it would be a bit eaiser to run wiring. I also want the ceiling to be flat when inside the addition (9' ceilings like the rest of the house). It just seamed a bit easier. Besides resting the half trusses on the ledger board, what else do I need to do to attach the trusses properly?
Ask the guy that will design your truss, or are you going to design them?
That was a no-brainer. Ask the company that's designing them!!!!:thumbsup: Some times I just feel dumb. Think before I ask!
Thanks for the help.
I bought a similar set of trusses, they came with hangers that the bottom of the truss sat in, similar to joist hangers. Where the truss met the high wall the truss company advised I use 2x material as backing so something more substantial was securing the peak of the truss.
