220V Washer 3-pronged to 220V dryer-outlet
I have a not too common Bosch washer with 220V (new older stock).
The washer runs on 220V and has a 3 pronged cable!
We are moving, our new apartment has two 220V 4-pronged dryer-outlets!
I want to do the job on the washer and NOT fiddle with the apartments wiring!
The washer does NOT have a small outlet-box on the back that would allow easy mounting of a 4 pronged pigtail to connect to the dryer-outlet.
To make things "worse" - I do know my way around electronics etc., but I am new to the US and the local standards (I am firm with all German standards :thumbsup:).
In Germany you normally run into questions like this once you want to connect something with more then 24A at 220V or have 380V apps.
Yes, I could call an electrician and some of you would probably recommend that, but I want to know what to do personally.

specs. on the washer itself
Since I got all kids of answers from "representatives", helpdesks and other online finds... please help me out with loud & clear facts.
The best was some Lowes guy who tried to convince me that he never saw a 220V washer before which let him to the irrevocable conclusion that I either got the wrong specs. or brought it over from Germany and would not admit it :whistling2: (btw. we have 220V 50Hz in Germany, not 60Hz)
Thanks in advance for all comments, info, help, etc. !
So you got your first experience with a highly trained employee at a home center. :whistling2:
Consider yourself initiated.
Well, I really do think changing the receptacle and breaker would be a LOT easier, but as you say, you don't want to mess with that and you are CORRECT not to as this is a rental.
One problem is the cord and strain relief for the dryer cord willl be MUCH larger than the existing. A dryer cord uses a 3/4" knockout hole, which is 1-1/8" in diameter.
You will have to enlarge the hole in the back of the unit and use a 4-prong dryer cord and just cap off the white wire as it will not be used with your straight 240v appliance.
Thanks for the info!
Well, my thoughts went into that direction but after all the blah I received, I needed some reassurance I guess.
My metrics are of the few things (add beer) I really miss here in the US!
Here we measure fuel usage in units of hogsheads per fortnight. So get used to it.
The plug on that cord looks alot like a 15 amp 250 volt. Also known as a NEMA 6-15. Pretty common, available at any big-box store. Too bad you can't just change the recptacle and breaker. I wouldn't though, as it's a rental. An adapter could be made for it, but it wouldn't be exactly legal.
1 hogsheads per fortnight = 1.97156864 × 10-7 m3 / s :brows:
That has to be one of the most horrid conversions I have ever seen!
Seriously, it was just a some rambling from my side.
I will not attempt to change US measurements to some French invention, no matter how great & handy it is to me - promised!
French or not (I personally don't care), the metric system is one of the smartest things ever invented.
To think of it as "some French invention" is seriously downplaying it's significance.
Too bad we are/were too thick headed to adopt it. :furious:
And no, to some of you who are thinking it, I don't want to move there.
The wire colour standard is not the same as in the Germany standard is
most common North American colour is
red = phase [line or hot conductor ]
black = phase
white = netural
green = ground
but i can't put my colour standard due you are my formaer next door [ i used to live in France before ] but however most cords is pretty much the same
Brown = live [ black wire]
Blue = Netural
Green/yellow stripe [ earth ] = ground either green wire or bare depending on set up
Merci, Marc
Why not ask the landlord if you can hire an electrician to swap the breaker and the receptacle? It'll probably cost you a hundred bucks, plus parts, right? Looks like a better option to me than hacking up the back of your washer, and having inadequate circuit protection for the appliance. If you change the cord/plug, or make an adapter, you'll still have your 15A appliance on a 30A circuit breaker.
I like when I work on my car using mostly metric nuts and bolts- if it's not 17mm it's 18 or 19 or 20- not the multitude of fractions in the current system.
Apparently the cost of conversion was not something anyone wanted to deal with.
I do have one quibble however. I believe that until America has a full blown hot conversion to the SI, that we don't need it printed as the primary system in our Code books. It's fine to have it, but the English units should be first, then the SI. We all overlook it anyway. Does anyone (other than Marc) actually use it? Do you order conduit in "Metric Designator 16" or do you say "1/2 inch"?
I could never understand why this was done.
I hate the fact I have to have two complete sets of tools to work on my trucks......:) I have grown to accept the fact that I need a 10mm wrench with me where ever I go.
As far as the metric system is concerned I would say we actually have adopted it, it just came through the back door and we didn't notice unless we worked for NASA or the medical industry.

I don't mean to thread jack, but I have a similar problem.
I have a 3 prong, 240v, 30a outlet for my welder, and I also need a 15a, 240v outlet from my wood planer. I can easily add another outlet, but I wanted to take advantage of the heavy duty extension cord I had made up for the welder.
I was playing around, and was wondering if this would work - I bought a new 30a plug and an exterior box, which is connected with a short piece of 1/2" pvc. I thought I could then install the correct 15a receptacle in the box for the planer to plug into? (I had some 12 THHN laying around for the wire)

I usually wear a button down shirt as cover garment and an undershirt under that. When I get home the button down comes off, but the rig stays the same. Keeping the 1911 on me is the only way I've found to have an 18 month old in the house and still have a readily accessible firearm. I'm comfortable with IWB all day long, so leaving it on for a couple more hours at night is no biggie. Sometimes (like now) after she's gone to bed, I pull the gun out of the holster and set it next to me... but not usually as the wife is slowly coming around to the whole gun thing and she's a little nervous about the weapon just lying about...

It is better to have your gun and not need it, than to need it and not have it!
You cannot choose the conditions for a gunfight, so train in all conditions!
My duty weapon goes in the safe when I get home. My BUG stays in my front pocket until I go to bed.
I usually use the same weapon I carry, but go from IWB to OWB.....
My S&W 340 in ankle holster doesn't come off until I go to bed. I am still wearing it right now. It is very comfortable. 100% of all home invasions happen at the home.
Even when I am carrying my Taurus .45 or Bersa .380 OWB, it tends to stay on until lights out. I can't find a good reason to take take of a perfectly good hangun/holster combo at home.
Get home and take off pants on floor. Go to fridge and get beverage and a snack. Glock stays in holster and goes on nightstand. Nothing changes

From 5:30 in the morning until I get in bed (usually after 11pm), my XD45 sits on my waist in a Crossbreed SuperTuck. Like others have mentioned, having it on you is the only place you know where it is at all times and who has access to it.
I have on occasion taken off my button up shirt when I got home and didn't realize I was showing for about a good 30 mins. My 2 kids and wife didn't even notice but it might be because of the black undershirts I always wear.
I don't change anything. My S&W SW40VE rides with me in the day and sits in my lap (or in my back pocket if I move around) at night before retiring to the nightstand. I do usually have my J-Frame in reach too but that's just because it's abode is right near where I plop at night.
An intruder will be incapacitated by tear gas or oven spray, but if shot with a .357 Magnum will get angry and kill you.
I don't change a thing until my weapon goes from my IWB holster to my mattress holster when I go to bed.

I take my gun off and take it out off it's holster and put it on the coffee table next to me, until I go to bed, then I get out my Glock with night sights and put it on the nightstand, still no holster.

Even as India gets ready to commission its first strategic oil storage facility in January, it currently has the lowest cover for crude oil among developing economies including China and Japan, government data showed on Thursday.
Building strategic crude oil reserves is considered a must since these stocks provide an insurance against any oil supply disruptions to economies that are heavily dependent on oil imports such as India.
Most developing nations are maintaining low crude oil inventory compared to developed nations such as the US that is maintaining a cover of 56 days, the report said.
While China has a 26 days cover, Japan has 25 days of crude oil inventory, while India is the lowest at 20 days.
India's public sector units and joint venture refineries are expected to import around 777 million barrels of crude oil in 2013-14.
"Considering the current inventory levels, the existing crude oil stock will provide a 20-day cover," a senior government official said.
The refinery throughput of China stood at 9,371 kilo barrels per day in 2012 according to latest estimates and its crude stock build is around 665,000 barrels per day. This is equivalent to an inventory level of around 2,42,725 kilo barrels and provides a 26-day cover.
In contrast, the refinery throughput of Japan is 3,400 kilo barrels per day for 2012. Japan's crude oil inventory is 85,790 kilo barrels which has a 25-day cover.
In contrast, the US has the maximum strategic reserves compared to most nations. With a refinery throughput of 15,006 kilo barrels per day, the US' crude oil inventory stood at 10,55,962 kilo barrels as on September 6, 2013.

The College Training Program
ON 1 July, 1943, thousands of college students and boys who had recently graduated from secondary schools boarded trains in countless cities and towns throughout the United States. In their wallets-or possibly clutched in their hands-were official orders from the U. S. Marine Corps instructing them to report for active duty at various colleges scattered from the Pacific to the Atlantic Coast.

Who is considered the "father of psychology"? This question does not necessarily have a cut-and-dry answer since many individuals have contributed to the inception, rise, and evolution of modern day psychology. We'll take a closer look at a single individual who is most often cited as well as other individuals who are also considered fathers of psychology.

The Father of Modern Psychology

Wilhelm Wundt is the man most commonly identified as the father of psychology. Why Wundt? Other people such as Hermann von Helmholtz, Gustav Fechner, and ErnstWeber were involved in early scientific psychology research, so why are they not credited as father of psychology?

Because Wundt's formation of the world's first experimental psychology lab is usually noted at the official start of psychology as a separate and distinct science. By establishing a lab that utilized scientific methods to study the human mind and behavior, Wundt took psychology from a mixture of philosophy and biology and made it a unique field of study.

In addition to making psychology a separate science, Wundt also had a number of students who went to become influential psychologists themselves. Edward B. Titchener was responsible for establishing the school of thought known as structuralism, James McKeen Cattell became the first professor of psychology in the United States, and G. Stanley Hall established the first experimental psychology lab in the U.S.

Other Thinkers Also Considered "Fathers of Psychology"

A number of other influential thinkers can also claim to be "Fathers of Psychology" in some way or another. The following are just a few of these individuals who are noted in specific areas of psychology:

 William James: The Father of American Psychology; he helped establish psychology in the U.S. and his book, The Principles of Psychology, became an instant classic.

 Sigmund Freud: The Father of Psychoanalysis; his theories and work established psychoanalysis as a major school of thought in psychology.

 Hugo Münsterberg: The Father of Applied Psychology; he was an early pioneer of several applied areas including clinical, forensic and industrial-organizational psychology.

 John Bowlby: The Father of Attachment Theory; he developed the theory of attachment.

 Kurt Lewin: The Father of Social Psychology; his work pioneered the use of scientific methods to study social behavior.

 Edward Thorndike: The Father of Modern Educational Psychology; his research on the learning process helped establish the foundation for educational psychology.

 Jean Piaget: The Father of Developmental Psychology; his theory of cognitive development revolutionized how research thought about children's intellectual growth.

Ulric Neisser: The Father of Modern Cognitive Psychology; the cognitive movement in psychology received a major boost from the publication of his 1967 book, Cognitive Psychology.

Lightner Witmer: The Father of Modern Clinical Psychology; he founded the world's first journal devoted to clinical psychology, The Psychological Clinic, in 1907.

 Gordon Allport: The Father of Personality Psychology; he was one of the first psychologists to study personality.

Obviously, not everyone is going to agree with these generalized titles. A few people might suggest that Freud is the father of psychology, since he is perhaps one of its most "known" figures. Others might suggest that Aristotle is the true father of psychology, since he is responsible for the theoretical and philosophical framework that contributed to psychology's earliest beginnings. Still others might argue that those earliest researchers such as Helmholtz and Fechner deserve credit as the founders of psychology.

No matter which side of the argument you are on, one thing that is easy to agree on is that all of these individuals had an important influence on the growth and development of psychology. While the theories of each individual are not necessarily as influential today, all of these psychologists were important in their own time and had a major impact on how psychology evolved into what it is today.

U-571, a fictional story inspired by several different WWII incidents, follows a group of sailors who are trying to capture the German's Engima code machine, so that they can find out where the U-boats are headed in time to prevent them from sinking the Allies' supply ships.
Minute for minute, it is one of the most tense and exciting war movies ever made, with the crew on the brink of disaster and often several disasters at once, for most of the movie's running time. Indeed, it is so busy being exciting that it is sometimes impossible to tell what is going on, especially since the sets are so dark, drippy, and claustrophobic and the dialogue so jargon-crammed. Still, it is more than a mindless testosterone explosion-fest. As Lt. Tyler (Matthew McConaughey) learns, it is not enough to be brave, loyal, and honorable.
As the movie begins, he is bitter at not having been recommended for command. The Captain (Bill Paxton) explains that it is not enough that Tyler is willing to give his life for the men. He has to be willing to order them to give their lives, and then he has to be able to live with the consequences. And he as to be able to do it "without pause, without reflection, or you've got no business being a submarine captain." Later, when Tyler and his men have taken over the U-Boat, and his first orders are tentative, Chief Klough (Harvey Keitel), the non-commissioned officer who has seen it all, takes him aside to tell him that "The skipper always knows what to do, whether he does or not." Tyler is confronted with decision after decision, forced to chose quickly and credibly among nothing but long shots. 1234567890
Submarines immediately grab our attention. They are isolated and vulnerable. Once they leave the dock, they become a world of their own, with no time to wait for orders when they get into trouble. In movies from "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" to "Operation Petticoat," "Crimson Tide" and "The Hunt for Red October" we see men who must make life and death decisions without time or information, and we get to think, as we lean back and eat our popcorn, about how we would fare 100 kilometers below the surface. We get to see some terrific examples of problem- solving and moral choices.
Families who see this movie should discuss how we develop the foundation of values and experience to enable us to make those choices. They should also talk about the difference between fiction and reality. The setting and the references to historical incidents like the capture of the Enigma may lead people who watch this movie to believe that it was based on a true story. It is not. It is based on pieces of several stories, mostly involving British, not American, sailors and soldiers, and it is heavily fictionalized, at times bearing more relation to Star Wars than it does to history.
The movie does give credit to the extraordinary heroism of British and American servicemen who succeeded in getting the Engima, by thanking them at the end of the movie. Some older kids will want to know more about this. They will enjoy Capturing Enigma: How HMS Petard Seized the German Naval Codes by Stephen Harper, Between Silk and Cyanide: A Codemaker's War, 1941-1945, by Leo Marks, and Station X: Decoding Nazi Secrets, by Michael Smith. Families may also want to talk about the treatment of the movie's one black character, Eddie (Terrence "T.C." Carson), clearly overqualified for the only position on the ship for which he is eligible – he serves the crew's food. At this time, of course, the service was still segregated.
Parent should know that this is an exceptionally intense and scary movie. Many people are brutally killed, including characters that the audience comes to care about.
Families who enjoy this movie will also enjoy other submarine movies, including Crimson Tide, Das Boot, and The Hunt for Red October.

Dynacord Cobra Brings Big Name DJs to Spy Bar, Chicago
"Spy Bar's owners chose the Cobra as their new main room system after the DJ booth was renovated earlier this year," reported Eric Dahl of Audiolines. "The Cobra has a small footprint, yet pumps out huge sound into the 50 by 50 foot room. Two stacks of two Cobra Tops and two Cobra PWH subs are ground stacked either side of the booth, standing about nine feet high, tucked in nicely under the twelve-foot basement ceiling. The Cobra hardly takes up any space, but it's taken the sound at Spy Bar to another level."
"The Cobra is simply a great club system," Dahl continued, "one that opens up the possibilities for serious sound reinforcement in spaces where you'd usually dismiss the line array option. As the only vertical line array designed specifically for ground stacking as well as flying, Cobra is a really versatile problem-solver. At Spy Bar they have the perfect balance of precise coverage, long throw and full-range definition, with the massive, room-filling low-end that a club needs, without the distortion you might expect in a relatively confined high-SPL environment like this. Add the dedicated Cobra-2 amp and processing rack to the equation, and you have easy plug and play operation too."
"The Cobra-2 has the brute force of a system twice its size, yet we're continuously told it sounds like there are two giant studio monitors in the room. When they see one for the first time, people often say "that's not enough moving air'. Then we fire it up and they say 'wow'. For small to medium applications like this, this Cobra-2 configuration will simply move the air more efficiently: when you compare the old school method of sound reinforcement, with piles and piles of big boxes blasting out sound, to the Cobra, it's like comparing an old big block muscle car from the "60s to a modern sports car. Sure the old car sounds and looks great, but the gas mileage and handling leaves a lot to be desired!
"There's a long line around the block at Spy Bar every Friday night," Dahl added. "Since installing the Cobra in February, their booking has taken off. Purefuture is the big DJ & dance music promoter here in Chicago, and they now hold their "Purefuture Friday' events at Spy Bar-a real coup in this competitive club scene. Upcoming "name' DJs on the schedule include Deep Dish, James Zabiela, Lee Burridge and Danny Howells. Purefuture had previously been booking their big name DJ nights at a mega-club that held about 3000. They stopped booking at this larger venue and started booking the 300-capacity Spy Bar, simply because of their new sound system. Obviously that says a lot for the Cobra rig! Now every weekend there's a name DJ at Spy Bar, and, like the crowd, they're never disappointed with how their sets sound."

However, unable to get his big break, Vile moved to Boston where he worked as a fork lift operator for two years. Knowing that his true passion in life was music, he decided to quit the blue collared job and moved back to Philadelphia. Upon his return he became acquainted with a songwriter named Adam Granduciel. Together the two decided to form an indie rock band in 2005 which they named "The War on Drugs." Working together for three years, the two came forth with their debut studio release. Titled "Wagonwheel Blues" the record was able to gather massive success in their hometown. With this the two decided to embark on a promotional album tour.
During this time, Vile was approached by Gulcher Records to sign a deal with the label. After signing a contract, Vile released his solo album titled "Constant Hitmaker" in the same year. "Constant Hitmaker" treated audiences with fourteen tracks that include hits such as "Freeway", "Breathin' Out", "Space Forklife" and "Slow Talkers." Supporting genres of indie rock and lo-fi music, the debut record received positive critic reviews. It was rated 7.2 out of 10 by the critic publication Pitchfork. With the record, the artist was able to achieve the fame he was aiming for. He decided to quit playing with the band "The War on Drugs" and concentrate on his solo career.
A year later, Kurt Vile released his sophomore album through Mexican Summer Records. This album was named "God Is Saying This to You" and carried the same genres as the debut release. It consisted of a total of twelve numbers including the title track "God is Saying This to You", "My Sympathy," "Red Apples," "Beach on the Moon" and "Can't Come" to name a few. Likewise the previous album, this record was well received as well. It was awarded a score of 7.6 out of 10 by Pitchfork.
Since then Kurt Vile has come forth with three more studio albums namely 2009's "Childish Prodigy", 2011's "Smoke Ring for My Halo" and 2013's "Wakin on a Pretty Daze." His most recent release has made its way to the charts all across US, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Norway, Sweden and the UK. In his shows the indie rock singer is backed by a live band that consists of the Jesse Trbovich on guitars, saxophone and bass guitar, Rob Laakso on guitars, keyboards, bass guitar and Vince Nudo handling percussion and drums. Kurt Vile tickets always sell fast.

Grains markets were down for a second straight day, with corn in the deepest rut. Coffee and sugar prices rose, helping the broader commodities complex consolidate its weekly loss. Even so, the 19-commodity Thomson Reuters-Jefferies CRB index finished the week down 2.8 percent for its sharpest weekly decline since October. Commodity prices barely moved earlier this week, but skidded on Wednesday and Thursday after Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke outlined a possible timeline for the central bank's winding down of its U.S. stimulus program. The flood of easy money created by the Fed since the 2008-2009 financial crisis has been integral to rallies in gold and other commodities. Bernanke indicated the stimulus programs could stop by mid-2014 if the U.S. economy is strong enough. Worries about slowing factory activity in No. 2 economy China also rocked markets on Thursday. The CRB fell almost 3 percent for that session alone, its sharpest one-day drop in 18 months. On Friday, the spot price of gold hovered above $1,294 an ounce, up 1.3 percent on the day, but down almost 7 percent on the week for its sharpest weekly loss in nearly 2 years. Copper fell for a third week in a row after hitting a 20-month low on Thursday. The three-month futures contract in London closed at $6,818 a tonne, up nearly 1 percent for the session and down 4 percent for the week. Oil's benchmark Brent crude out of Europe's North Sea finished with its biggest two-day drop since June 2012. Brent settled at $100.91 a barrel, down 1.2 percent on the day and 6.4 percent on the week. U.S. crude finished at $93.69, down 1.5 percent on the day and 4 percent on the week. "Without quantitative easing and strong China demand, the oil bull story evaporates," said Phil Flynn, energy analyst at Price Futures Group in Chicago, Illinois. "The only thing you have left is potential geopolitical risk or weather risk, which at this point seems to be coming down a bit."

Secretary Root's Record:"Marked Severities" in Philippine Warfare
Appendix A: General Bell's Orders
[Circular No. 6.]
Headquarters Sixth Separate Brigade,
Tacloban, Leyte, P.I, December 24,1901.
To all Station Commanders:
The brigade commander has become thoroughly convinced from the great mass of evidence at hand that the insurrection for some time past and still in force in the island of Samar has been supported solely by the people who live in the pueblos ostensibly pursuing their peaceful pursuits and enjoying American protection, and that this is especially true in regard to the "pudientes," or wealthy class.
He is and for some time past has been satisfied that the people themselves, and especially this wealthy and influential class, can stop this insurrection at anytime they make up their minds to do so; that up to the present time they do not want peace; that they are working in every way and to the utmost of their ability to prevent peace. He is satisfied that this class, while openly talking peace, is doing so simply to gain the confidence of our officers and soldiers, only to betray them to the insurrectos, or, in short, that while ostensibly aiding the Americans they are in reality secretly doing everything in their power to support and maintain this insurrection.
Under such conditions there can be but one course to pursue, which is to adopt the policy that will create in the minds of all the people a burning desire for the war to cease; a desire or longing so intense, so personal, especially to every individual of the class mentioned, and so real that it will impel them to devote themselves in earnest to bringing about a state of real peace, that will impel them to join hands with the Americans in the accomplishment of this end.
The policy to be pursued in this brigade, from this time on, will be to wage war in the sharpest and most decisive manner possible. This policy will apply to the island of Samar and such other portions of the brigade to which it may become necessary to apply it, even though such territory is supposedly peaceful or is under civil government.
In waging this warfare, officers of this brigade are directed and expected to co-operate to their utmost, so as to terminate this war as soon as practicable, since short, severe wars are the most humane in the end. No civilized war, however civilized, can be carried on on a humanitarian basis. In waging this war, officers will be guided by the provisions of General Orders No. 100, Adjutant-general's Office, 1863, which order promulgates the instructions for the government of the armies of the United States in the field. (Copies of this order will be furnished to the troops of this brigade as soon as practicable. In the mean time commanding officers will personally see to it that the younger and less experienced officers of the command are instructed in the provisions of this order, wherever it is possible to do so.)
Commanding officers are earnestly requested and expected to exercise, without reference to these headquarters, their own discretion in the adoption of any and all measures of warfare coming within the provisions of this general order which will tend to accomplish the desired results in the most direct way or in the shortest possible space of time. They will also encourage the younger officers of their commands to constantly look for, engage, harass, and annoy the enemy in the field, and to this end commanding officers will repose a large amount of confidence in these subordinate officers, and will permit to them a large latitude of action and a discretion similar to that herein conferred upon the commanding officers of stations by these headquarters.
Without warranting in any way carelessness of action or recklessness in the slightest degree, or the relaxation of that constant vigilance which the officer should at all times exercise in the enemy's country, and especially in these islands, officers should be encouraged to bear in mind always that we have the decided morale over the natives of the islands, and that they must not hesitate to attack them boldly on all occasions and to drive home such attacks with vigor; they should bear in mind that mere numbers of insurgents should not warrant any other course, unless and until his command is so outnumbered as to render the loss of a major portion thereof a certainty, which contingency is not likely to arise within this brigade.
In dealing with the natives of all classes, officers will be guided by the following principles:
First. Every native, whether in arms or living in the pueblos or barrios, will be regarded and treated as an enemy until he has conclusively shown that he is a friend. This he cannot do by mere words or promises, nor by imparting information which, while true, is old or stale and of no value; nor can it be done by aiding us in ways that do no material harm to the insurgents. In short, the only manner in which the native can demonstrate his loyalty is by some positive act or acts that actually and positively commit him to us, thereby severing his relations with the insurrectos and producing or tending to produce distinctively unfriendly relations with the insurgents.
Not only the ordinary natives, but especially those of influence and position in the pueblos who manifestly and openly cultivate friendly relations with the Americans will be regarded with particular suspicion, since by the announced policy of the insurgent government their ablest and most stanch friends or those who are capable of mist skilfully practising duplicity are selected and directed to cultivate the friendship of American officers, so as to obtain their confidence and to secretly communicate to the insurgents everything that the Americans do or contemplate doing, particularly with regard to the movement of troops. In a word, friendship for the Americans on the part of any native will be measured directly and solely by his acts, and neither sentiment nor social reasons of any kind will be permitted to enter into the determination of such friendship.
Second. It will be regarded as a certainty that all officials of the pueblos and barrios are likewise officials of Lukban and his officers, or at least that they are in actual touch and sympathy with the insurgent leaders, and that they are in secret aiding these leaders with information, supplies, etc., wherever possible. Officers will not be misled by the fact that officials of the pueblos pass ordinances inimical to those in insurrection, or by any action taken by them, either collectively or individually. The public acts of pueblo councils that are favorable to the Americans are usually negative by secret communication on the part of the parties enacting them to those in insurrection. Therefore, such acts cannot be taken as a guide in determining the friendship or lack of it of these officials for the American Government.
Third. The taking of the oath of allegiance by officials, presidentes, vice-presidentes, consejeros, principales, tenientes of barrios, or other people of influence, does not indicate that they or any of them have espoused the American cause, since it is a well-established fact that these people frequently take the oath of allegiance with the direct object and intent of enabling them to be of greater service to their real friends in the field. In short, the loyalty of these people is to be determined only by acts which, when combined with their usual course of conduct, irrevocably binds them to the American cause.
Neutrality must not be tolerated on the part of any native. The time has now arrived when all natives in this brigade who are not openly for us must be regarded as against us. In short, if not an active friend, he is an open enemy.
Fourth. The most dangerous class with whom we have to deal is the wealthy sympathizer and contributor. This class comprises not only all those officials and principales above mentioned, but all those of importance who live in the pueblos with their families. By far the most important as well as the most dangerous member of this class is the native priest. He is most dangerous; and he is successful because he is usually the best informed, besides wielding an immense influence with the people by virtue of his position. He has much to lose, in his opinion, and but little to gain through American supremacy in these islands.
It is expected that officers will exercise their best endeavors to suppress and prevent aid being given by the people of this class, especially by the native priests. Wherever there is evidence of this assistance, or where there is a strong suspicion that they are thus secretly aiding the enemies of our Government, they will be confined and held. The profession of the priest will not prevent his arrest or proceedings against him. If the evidence is sufficient, they will be tried by the proper court. If there is not sufficient evidence to convict, they will be arrested and confined as a military necessity, and held as prisoners of war until released by orders from these headquarters.
It will be borne in mind that in these islands, as a rule, it is next to impossible to secure evidence against men of influence, and especially against the native priests, so long as they are at large. On the other hand, after they are arrested and confined, it is usually quite easy to secure abundant evidence against them. Officers in command of stations will not hesitate, therefore, to arrest and detain individuals whom they have good reason to suspect are aiding the insurrection, even when positive evidence is lacking.
Fifth. Presidentes and officials of the pueblos generally, including the police, will be especially watched by the troops; and whenever sufficient evidence can be found to warrant their conviction before the proper court of the violation of their oaths of office, by reason of their acting as agents of the insurrectos, or by aiding or assisting or protecting these insurgents in any way, they should be arrested and tried by military commissions or provost courts. In all cases where evidence will warrant conviction, charges will be preferred, and duly forwarded for action by these headquarters.
Sixth. In the treatment of natives the officers of this brigade will bear in mind that the ordinary "tauo" is regarded by the native influence and standing as but little more than a piece of machinery to be manipulated as may suit his fancy. He is the ignorant tool who follows but too blindly the lead of the men of influence. But little attention will be paid therefore to the ordinary offences against the laws of war that may be committed by this class. Their minor offences can and will be safely and properly disregarded. Their services may be utilized wherever practicable or desirable in operations against their leaders.
In the selection of guides, however, officers will bear in mind that the more intelligent the native selected the greater the chance of success in the particular undertaking. Guides from the "pudientes," or influential class, should be impressed freely and in numbers sufficient to accomplish the object in view. They should be informed of their duties and responsibilities as such, and be held to a strict compliance therewith. This class can at all times communicate with the insurgents when they wish to do so, and this desire can and should be cultivated in them. Even though they may not know any given trail, their facilities for acquiring knowledge thereof are unlimited. Besides, it is quite well established that this class are good barometers, and as such will afford ample protection against the bamboo trap and similar pitfalls placed in the trails, if they occupy their proper position in the command.
Seventh. Special efforts will also be made to prevent contributions of all kinds to the enemy. Natives living in the pueblos will be informed that they can secure protection from forced contributions whenever they really desire such protection. To secure it, however, reports of attempted collections must be promptly made to the nearest American officials and in time to be of value. Presidentes of pueblos can at all times prevent the collection of contributions within their pueblos if they really wish to do so. Any failure to do this on the part of any official, when known, should be carefully investigated; and, unless it is clearly established that he is not at fault, he should be promptly confined and punished.
It is quite common for natives of all classes to claim that they are afraid of the insurgents; that, if they assist the Americans or give any information to them, they will be killed. There may be some isolated cases in which such claims have a foundation, but they are very rare indeed, and it is quite certain that in all cases this fear may be promptly removed by an honest effort on the part of the party possessing it. This myth of so-called fear will disappear with the first honest effort of the possessor to suppress the insurrection. Officers will furnish protection against all real dangers directed against those natives who seek such protection within their commands, provided they are friends of the established government, and to no one else. All collectors of these contributions will be promptly arrested and proceeded against.
By command of Brigadier-general Smith.
W. E. Ayer,
Captain, Twelfth Infantry, Adjutant-general.

Hello and happy weird post-Christmas-pre-New-Years week!
For quite awhile I had been wanting to try Makeup Monsters Liquid Lipstick so I finally purchased a few shades recently. Fascinating intro, right? Sorry, I'm not feeling too great right now so this will be short and to the point!
The applicator is a nice slightly bent sponge type which applies the lipstick very evenly.

Both laughter and tears can be cathartic, but only laughter is OK in front of your dog. Laugh until you cry with this Groupon.
The Deal
- $26 for two tickets to see comedians Ian Harvie and Felon O'Reilly in We Are Not Saints Recovery Comedy Show (a $48.10 value)
- When: Friday, May 3, at 7:30 p.m.
- Where: Arcade Comedy Theater
- Seating: general admission
- Door time: 6:30 p.m.
- Ticket values include all fees.

Ian Harvie
Many comics riff on their fear of using the public restroom, but Ian Harvie will tell you how easy they have it. One of the world's first trans-gender standup comics, Ian is a masterful storyteller who channels his understated charisma and relatable charm to connect with audience members of all backgrounds. Ian performed standup on the Logo Network's OutLaugh Comedy Festival and on Comics Unleashed on ABC, and has been hosting his own self-produced talk show from a Los Angeles nightclub since 2007. Lauded by Margaret Cho as "not just great looking… [but] an awesome comic and a terrific pal," Ian has also worked with LGBTQ icons such as Jane Lynch, Alan Cumming, Kimberley Peirce, and Buck Angel.

Warning: This clip contains some explicit language and promotes unsanitary use of supermarket produce-section scales.
####Felon O'Reilly Al Joyce stole his first bike at age 6. Four decades of crime, drinking, drug use, and other really unhappy stuff followed, as Joyce racked up arrests, arraignments, indictments, seven incarcerations, 17 stints in detox or rehab, and nearly ten years' worth of time spent behind bars. His last arrest proved a turning point, however, and more than a decade of hard work and sobriety later, Joyce has transformed into Felon O'Reilly, the "Standup Convict." Mining his story for the comedy within but never forgetting that his is a message of recovery, Felon can be found both in comedy clubs and at youth groups, recovery centers, and AA meetings, provoking not only belly laughs, but also new perspective on the stigma of addiction.

Hi! Can someone compare this to Gunz? I've read a bit about it and it sounds a bit like Gunz, but with robots anyway is it along the same lines as gunz, is it better etc and yeah can you outline if there are any mmorpg elements in there?
Hi! Can someone compare this to Gunz? I've read a bit about it and it sounds a bit like Gunz, but with robots anyway is it along the same lines as gunz, is it better etc and yeah can you outline if there are any mmorpg elements in there?
The only similarities I see with gunz are that there are both melee and ranged weapons, you can "dash", and the gameplay is different from that of most other t/fps's out there.
I find it a bit better than gunz, personally. Well, there are levels and ranks that are obtainable but it seems that equipment is available to all levels so long as you have enough money (you can also color your mech with spray paint). The missions are much more entertaining and it has a base capture mode.
I'd say just try it out for yourself as my opinions are probably not the same as yours.
I'm downloading now and then ready to kick some ass
totally amazing graphics and gameplay i say it better than gunz
Exteel has better graphics, and is much more newbie friendly.
It's also run by a better company, NCsoft.
I don't see why everyone thinks that Exteel and GunZ are alike. Even the most experienced Exteel players would get pwned in GunZ...
But beginners can do all right in Exteel. I went 10/5 in my first game, and got third.
Become Legendary
its nothing like gunz there is only 1 cheap move in the game is where you jump around like a idiot managing to dodge every bullet from people who can't aim while being able to keep a straight shot. other then that you can expect that exteel doesn't have cheap moves like the "korean moves" in gunz which i like cause it just takes the fun out of it if you ask me =/
To be honest this game really isn't anything at all like Gunz so I'm not sure why people try to compare the two. Actually, the combat reminds me a lot of Rakion where if you hit you tend to do a good amount of damage, but missing results in not being able to attack for a while (or even worse for guns like the cannons where you are immobile after shooting as well) so if you miss there is a good chance you will get hit.
However, if you want to compare it to Gunz, I'll try to to the best of my abilities (note that I have been playing Gunz far longer and honestly prefer it a lot more so sorry in advance if I am unintentionally biased at any point). Like Gunz, you health system is fairly unrealistic in that it takes quite a few hits from pretty much any weapon to kill you. Unlike Gunz, the movement is somewhat stilted (not worse than in most normal shooters and it is still very fast, but much less free-ranging than in Gunz). One good thing is it is pretty customizable with quite a few pieces of armor and weapons to mix and match so there's quite a few more than in Gunz (although the amount of available weapons of each type seem about the same). Actual weapon setup is something of a mix between Gunz and Halo. Like in Gunz, you pick what weapons you want to bring to the match beforehand and none spawn within the maps themselves. However, like Halo you have 2 fully customizable weapon "sets" so you can combine any two one handed weapons in the game together (unlike in Gunz where the only dual weapons are the pre-set dual revolvers and dual pistols) or carry a single two handed weapon in one of the sets.
The actual weapons available are pistol (spray), rifle (longer range than pistol but fairly slow), shotgun (never tried it but I think it's fairly obvious what it's like), rectifier (heal gun), sword/spear for melee, shields, cannon (longest range, but two handed and you get knocked back and stunned upon using it), and rocket (never used this, but I believe it's like a stronger, less accurate cannon, not sure though). There are a few large maps, but most of the maps tend to be in the small-medium range (think Mansion in Gunz if it only had the main floor for the medium maps). This fact you will either love or hate depending upon your playstyle. If you generally go for shotguns and spray weapons in games you will love free-for-all deathmatch since most people seem to choose arena (a very small, circular single room) or random (which will likely land you in a smallish map anyway). Unfortunately, if you are like me and prefer long-range fighting you will be disappointed as it is nearly impossible to use the sniper-type weapon (cannon) in small maps due to the delay it takes to get it set up and in-between shots (rifle is a possibility but it is honestly a very very weak weapon and just barely longer range than pistol); since the game marks down every time you leave a game early, this means you will most likely be limited entirelyto team-based gameplay (or the rare free-for-all large maps) if you want to play solely long range.
Finally, I want to address two issues that will probably make you either love or hate the game. First, the 'reload' system. Unlike in Gunz, all weapons have infinite ammo. However, the catch is whenever you fire a weaon a gauge fills up. This gauge slowly decreases, but if it reaches the top it turns red and slowly starts to drain (if you have two one-handed weapons there is a gauge for each individual weapon). While the gauge is red, you can not attack with that weapon and each weapon (literally every weapon, not just every weapon-type) fills up the gauge and recovers from overheating at a different speed; this system applies to melee weapons and shields as well. So the answer to this seems simply; switch to your second set of weapons. Unfortunately, Exsteel has an Energy system which is basically as follows: You have energy (this is increased quite a bit by better parts, but for a while at least this can be annoying) which drains fairly fast whenever you boost (run) or jump higher than the normal amount via a jet-powered booster (this drains it far far faster than running), switching weapons also requires energy so if you are low on energy and need to switch weapons, you can't. This presents an interesting dilema for fights; if you switch weapons mid-fight you will be able to fight again, but you will be a ridiculously easy target because you can't move fast, likewise, if you don't switch weapons you can dodge but need to wait until your weapons are useable again (the time it takes seems to be about two or three times the reload time of most weapons in Gunz). However, an even worse problem with the cooldown system is the actual way you switch weapons. Games like Gunz and Halo that allow more than one weapon to be carried allow you to switch weapons instantly with the tap of a button, but in Exsteel if you switch weapon sets there is a little animation that lasts about 1 second between switching weapons, leaving you with no way of attacking (or using a shield) while switching weapons. I'm sure a decent amount of people find this system to be ingeniously strategic, but I think it is just unnecessarily crippling.
The second issue that I want to discuss is the auto-target system, which has already been the subject of a few debates. This system is the main reason why people clain Exsteel to be "newby friendly". Basically, every weapon in the game (except melee weapons, shields and rocket launchers) has an auto-target system where as long as you put the targetting reticle in the general area of someone, it will loock onto them and garauntee a hit while it's locked on. So, this means weapons like pistols (think SMG's in Gunz) are very popular in Exsteel because they don't spray: they rapidly shoot a bunch of bullets that will be garaunteed to hit if locked on. The point of dodging in the game is to get rid of the lock on, not to dodge the bullets themselves (I believe it is impossible to dodge a bullet once it is fired unless you get behind a wall very quickly). I am not sure if this next comment applies to all lock-on weapons, but I know for cannon at least you are garaunteed to miss if you are not locked on. So, unlike in Gunz where you generally try to predict your opponent's movements in advance and aim at where they will soon be, in Exsteel you aim at where they actally are and if you try to aim at where they are going you will miss since it is not locked on (this does not apply to melee weapons and I think rockets). Long range weapons, like the cannon, also have a minimum attack range so if someone manages to get near you you have no way of attacking normally (there are melee skills you can buy later on, but without them it's impossible and with the reload time by the time you get out of sniper mode and try switching, you most likely die). Also, to the best of my knowledge it is impossible to snipe someone from across the map like with revolvers in Gunz because weapons, including the cannon, have a maximum lock-on range (remember, you can not hit without lock on) so while for the long range weapons you can still shoot people from fairly far away, there is a range limit.
In conclusion, Exteel is not too much like Gunz and not for everyone. While it is true that the most common form of attack seems to be close-range lke in Gunz, unike Gunz the most common weapon seems to be the pistol (the spray weapon), less accuracy and a bit more reflexes are required, the game maps usually lean towards small (whereas in Gunz most maps are fairly large with a few small maps. Also for whatever reason in both games the max people in a game is 16), combat is overall slower and therefore relies more upon strategy than upon instinct and pure skill, and there is somewhat more customization in Exsteel (I say somewhat because while there are more types of weapons and more armor overall, there seems to be only about 3-4 of each type of weapon as opposed to, in most cases, 5+ of each weapon type). There also seems to be less players (most likely because it is still new), but less lag as well in Exteel.
Play GunZ for 100 hours, and get into sword fights, then say that.
GunZ is totally different from Exteel, and hell, it's different from any other games right now. Sure it is comparable with other FPS in the shooting department. But no games can compare with it in terms of melee fighting.
Just completed all tutorials and played one match in Exteel and well.. Imo Exteel pwns Gunz 100-0. Thats all
LOL yeah exteel > gunz anyday
however the money is kinda slow but its okay,I have liek a almost finished 54k set Wewt my most kills was 16-0
PS-SAVE UP UNTILL 40-50K BEFORE U BUY STUFF also control point maps are most money
Gunz is fast paced and requires skill while Exsteel is sluggish and the winer is always the person with the best equipment.
Couldn't Take It No More
So I Became Hardcore
Then why can others and myself dodge when there is a lock on feature?
No offense but if you do not like the game why don't you play another? I would say that Exteel is more based on reaction time and situational awareness. I really can't say that there is skill involved as I haven't found any reason why I, personally, have gotten better. I haven't learned anything new as far as aiming and glitches go, but I have been paying much more attention to buildings, cover, and the fire direction indicator. This is what leads me to my thoughts above. I could just be running into a greater amount of enemies that are more newbish than me but I find that unlikely. I would also say that to some extent Exteel is gear based as all games are.
Also, I wouldn't really say Gunz is reliant on equipment. I would say it's a little less reliant or a little more reliant on equipment than Exteel. Both games can be sluggish and both require different types of "skill". I probably have some huge flaw in my statements somewhere lets see who points out something first.
Well, I'm not here to point out flaws, so far Zefer, nothing is wrong. I also agree to what you say about exteel and such. Shooting games are shooting games, no matter how hard you try to differ things (especially features) in the end they all hold true to their value of gameplay. Seriously so what if there's a lock on feature? It's not the end of the world I mean with enough practice and common sense it's pretty easy to avoid fire, even from the high ranking corperals or seargents in game. So in other words your "skills" in the game depends on how well you strategize your movements, while in Gunz, it depends on how well you abuse game glitches.
To some point depending on the player's view of play equipment isn't everything. Like Soulex said, you can go in a battle with all noob stuff and still place in a fairly high rank. For those who can't support is provided for them through weapon upgrades or new parts. In the end, a game is a game, if you don't like it move on to something else. *raises flame shield*
my random quotes:Attitude controls all!
The moon shines on those who seek it..
if gunz didnt have so many bugs and haxors it might just stand a chance against this game...
>good bye<
I don't get why people are hating the lock on system. I mean you're in a Gundam more or less. You would think that there would be an locking system on a freaking Gundam. In GunZ you were a person. Not a robot. And even with the locking system, it still takes some skill to kill someone.
Now if it was only a FPS and not a 3rd Person Shooter =[ Or at least had the option to be an FPS.
If it was, then Maiet would've patched it out a long time ago in KGunz before it had speard to the International version.
As it stands, animation cancelling opens up a hoard of new techniques for GunZ that makes for intresting play when both sides know how to use the techniques, and diversifys the game to more then just "tumble while shooting <insert weapon here>" or "flip and shoot while in midair".

Kenneth Lipartito: How the Depression Made Keynesians of CapitalistsRoundup: Historians' Take
Kenneth Lipartito is a professor of history at Florida International University. His co-written history of corporate social responsibility will be published in 2012. The opinions expressed are his own.
Re-elected with 61 percent of the vote in 1936, President Franklin D. Roosevelt told his supporters, "Now I'm going back to do what they call balance the budget." True to his word, he cut spending and promptly sent the nation into a recession -- a sharper decline than in 1929.
The orthodox wisdom in Washington in 1937 remained cutting spending, reducing taxes and balancing the budget to restore business confidence. Punitive taxes on investments and capital gains and "unreasonable restrictions" on finance had put businessmen into "a state of stagnation if not panic," critics of the New Deal argued. Uncertainty was the main reason the economy was in a slump, declared the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The conservative "Brass Hats" of the National Association of Manufacturers told Roosevelt to end social-welfare policies and get tough with labor if he wanted to reduce unemployment. Chase National Bank President Winthrop Aldrich said it was time to "dismantle the anti-business elements of the New Deal."
Many in the Roosevelt administration also believed business confidence was key. Treasury Secretary Henry Morgenthau Jr., a close friend of the president, promoted the "Treasury view" that government spending merely crowded out private investment. The only way out of the Great Depression, Morgenthau said, "was through restoring business confidence." The liberal Securities and Exchange Commission Chairman William O. Douglas believed that corporate executives were "marking time" and going on vacation rather than investing their firms' cash. Roosevelt himself never completely shook off his view that balanced budgets were a good thing. He had chastised Herbert Hoover for big deficits in the 1932 campaign and cut the wages of federal workers by 15 percent when he took office. His behavior in 1936 was completely in character....

Mars meteorite reveals its age
Long difficult to estimate, date of space rocks' formation emerges with new technique
By Andrew Grant, 13:38 PM July 24, 2013
Providing a tool for unlocking secrets of the early solar system, a new technique accurately determines the age of meteorites, scientists report in the July 25 Nature.
Scientists disagree over estimates of meteorites' ages because it's hard to distinguish between when the rocks formed and when they got seared from an impact and flung into space toward Earth.
UCLA geochronologist Axel Schmitt and colleagues began by examining the structure of a meteorite's mineral crystals, which differs d...

OK, don't shoot me but I'm a bit anal when it comes to this stuff.
I see the way you pieced the Jacob's Ladder, but it looks to me like some of those 4 patches in the corner of some of the blocks need to turned so that the ladder is continuous.
Unless it's some allegory about falling off the ladder........
(it's the 4 patch in some of those blocks, in others, it's whole quarter block that's off - meaning the outside patches aren't in the correct position either)

Hi All, I'm curious to know how important it is to runners for an event to have chip timing.
We (our local primary school PTFA) are in the early stages of planning our annual 10k (in October 2012). Its our 7th year organising the event and (even though I say so myself) we do a reasonably good job - our feedback is generally very good.
Should we upgrade to chip timing? ... I'm researching at the moment, and am wondering actually, how important is chip timing to runners? Would you choose a chip timed event over an old fashioned manually timed event?
Would love to hear any views ...
I do prefer chip timed events, those few seconds matter
Most seem to have chipped timing these days - I can't remember the last race I did without chips, and I'm talking about local races organised by PTAs, Rotary Club, running clubs.
stutyr wrote (see)
I guess it depends on the size of the field - I normally do a local 5k series that doesn't use chips, and I only realised when writing this response. As its a small field (less than 500 runners) it doesn't bother me as I know I cross the start line within a few seconds of the gun. For the larger races, I would be slightly annoyed as it can take some time to get over the start mat, so the clock time is significantly more than my chip time. I don't race for the position, I race to achieve personal bests - so its nice to have a published time that shows how long it took me to complete the distance.^^ My thoughts/feeling exactly.
for small local events I don't think it matters much - and if the use of chip timing pushed the price up a lot then you might get less people entering - I am thinking here of a 10K run by a local primary I did last year - it cost about £10 or something to enter, no chip timing but a great event.
to be honest, I don't look to see whether an event has chip timing before I sign up for it
I doubt if the majority of those who enter your race would expect chip timing - I imagine that they enter to support the school, therefore chip timing is not so important to them.
If you provide chip timing, then you'd have to make sure that you provide all the other facilities that go along with that kind of a race - maybe you already do, but if not, you might find you attract more people with the chip timing, but equally, they expect more from you.
Our village has been running a 10k for the last few years. Initial timing was two people standing at the end of the race, each with a stop watch, pad and pencil, taking it in turns to record the timing.
I'm not sure that it's changed much, but entries pretty much double each year and no-one complains!
Anything less than two female virgins placing a laurel garland upon the nobel brow of the winner and your getting reported to the UKA.
Oh yes and a pit for the burial of the ritually slaughtered losers.
(This is not strictly needed but it adds an incentive and it is for charity)
Gun time how charmingly retro
Can I chuck in a nice cinder track ?
i prefer chip timing...but certainly dont check before i register. I would rather you kept the costs lower.
but if your entry fee is high there will be an expectation for all the race trimmings and chip timing would fall in to that category.
Chip timings are only needed for me if its a premier event - eg flat and fast so people will target it for a PB or a big field so it takes a long time to cross the start.
Don't bother with chip timing, it pushes the costs up and isn't really needed.
I only run one or two chip timed races a year at most. Until UKA started using the chip times for rankings I never really bothered with them. Interesting, but gun time is the only one that counts. I can just see chip timed fell races! What happens when the heather rips your chip off?

Reports and tips from RoadsideAmerica.com visitors and Roadside America mobile tipsters. Some tips may not be verified. Submit your own tip.
The Dancing Cow and Pig Barn has completed its renovation and is back in all its glory. The barn has been completely fixed up, repainted, and a new mural has been painted on it by the original muralist. The owner, Dale Hawkins, son of the original owner of the barn when the original painting was done for a radio contest in 1992, invited Sylvia Lindowitz back from Arizona to re-paint her original.[Jim H, 10/28/2015]
The mural will be re-painted this week on the barn by the original artist! The barn was renovated during the past two years. It should be complete by the end of October![Mary Ann R, 10/10/2015]
Sadly, the mural of the dancing cow and pig is no longer there. The barn's siding has been replaced. I have no information as to whether or not the mural will be replaced. I miss this, as it always made me smile.[Goatess, 07/14/2015]
The origin of the Dancing Cow and Pig was a contest for a now defunct alternative rock radio station. The radio station sent out vans and if they spotted their call letters, you would win a good size prize. Alas, the dancing cow and pig did not win, but the good town of Nokesville won a memorable icon.
Everything of the original painting remains the same, except the radio station stuff has been painted over.[Jason Margolies, 01/31/2008]
In the "metropolis" of Nokesville, Virginia (pop:1,200), there is a big green barn with a dancing cow and pig painting facing north (seen from southbound lane). The owner has periodically maintained the painting, as it has been there for at least 10 years now.[Jim Heverin, 01/11/2006]

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady was in attendance at Gillette Stadium Monday morning, according to a source.
Monday morning marked Brady's first return to the facility since the start of summer break in June. The quarterback, who will turn 36 next month, will be joined by the rest of his teammates later in the week, as full squad workouts are set to start Friday. (Rookies reported on Sunday.)
The quarterback sounds ready to roll for his 14th season in the NFL, telling Peter King Monday that what continues to bring him back year after year is the chance to compete for another shot at the ultimate prize.
"We've had our chances. Twice. More than twice, actually," Brady told King [1]. "I still have plenty of chances to do it. What I've learned is it's really, really hard to win the Super Bowl. I didn't get that perspective early, winning three out of the first four years I played.
"What I like about this franchise is we've got a shot every year. I love the fact we were in the AFC title game last year, the Super Bowl. the year before that, and 14-2 the year before that. Can we win this year? It'll be determined by our level of commitment, the mental toughness. We'll find it out before the season. How committed are we?"
