-metareg- is from SJ and SSC. -metareg- in Stata terms is a command,
not a macro.
Exactly what you typed can only be guessed if you report that it was
"something like" your example.
It may be that you are putting a space in "wsse ()". If so, remove the space.

During the nineteenth century, Arkansas was "The Bear State" because of its large population of black bears. Legends of Arkansas bears figured prominently in the American frontier, spurred by contributions from journalists in New York and Chicago. Black bears were important to early Arkansas settlers who depended on bear meat, hides and oil for subsistence. Due to generations of unrestricted killing, only about 50 bears remained in Arkansas by the 1940s. In 1959, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission began one of the nation's more successful large mammal reintroductions by restoring black bears to the Ozark and Ouachita mountains. More than 3,500 black bears are now thriving in Arkansas, thanks to ongoing management by AGFC wildlife biologists.
Arkansas Game and Fish Commission – the state agency responsible for managing fish and wildlife
"Bear State" – the nickname for Arkansas in the 1800s derived from its large black bear population
Boar – an adult male bear
Carnivore – an animal that mostly eats animal matter
Carrying capacity – the amount of wildlife an area of land can sustain which varies with the amount of food, water and shelter available
Color phase – description of variation in hair color found in wildlife; black bears have black, cinnamon and blonde color phases
Cub – a young juvenile bear
Culvert trap – a trap made from a large metal drainage culvert to captur e bears for study or relocation
Den – a sheltered area used by black bears during the winter months
Gum tattoo – a marking device used on black bears by wildlife biologists; imprints identification numbers or letters for tracking purposes
Habitat –living space for wild animals that includes available food, water and space
Harvest – to take an animal by hunting; harvest numbers are part of scientific management of a species used by wildlife biologists
Home range – an area in which a wild animal spends most of its time; can vary in size during its lifetime due to limiting factors
Jab stick – a long pole with an injector at the tip used by wildlife biologists to anesthetize or medicate wildlife
Nuisance animal – a wild animal that has become a threat or danger to humans that must be relocated or killed by wildlife biologists
Oil Trough, Arkansas – a small town along the White River between Batesville and Newport that was named for the bear oil storage devices made from hollow logs in the 1800s
Omnivore – an animal that eats animal and vegetable matter
Radio collar – a leather collar fitted with an electronic transmitter and attached to a wild animal so wildlife biologists can monitor its location
Snare – a trapping device made from steel cable used by wildlife biologists to capture a wild animal for study or relocation
Sow – an adult female bear
Sustainable population – the number of animals in a species that can live healthfully in a certain area without overpopulation
Telemetry – a method of tracking wild animals through radio or satellite transmission from a transmitter affixed on the animal to a receiver that is monitored by wildlife biologists
Translocate – capture and relocation of a wild animal; can be used to introduce or increase wildlife into a new area or to move nuisance animals away from people
Wildlife biologist – a scientist who studies and manages wild animals
Yearling – a juvenile bear about one to two years old

A study of the known and hypothetical crystal structures of pyridine: why are there four molecules in the asymmetric unit cell?
Anghel, A. T., Day, G.M. and Price, S. L. (2002) A study of the known and hypothetical crystal structures of pyridine: why are there four molecules in the asymmetric unit cell? CrystEngComm, 4, pp. 348-355. (doi:10.1039/B202084J).
Full text not available from this repository.
The oldest crystal structure of pyridine is unusually complex, with four molecules in the asymmetric unit cell of Pna21 symmetry. In an attempt to understand why pyridine crystallises with 16 molecules in the unit cell, we have considered its thermodynamic stability relative to hypothetical pyridine structures. These were generated by a search for minima in the lattice energy of pyridine amongst the more common space groups, using the crystal structure prediction procedure MOLPAK followed by lattice energy minimisation using a distributed multipole-based intermolecular potential. We find over two dozen distinct crystal structures in the energy gap of less than 6 kJ mol?1 between the corresponding models for the observed and most stable (hypothetical) structure. Adding harmonic phonon estimates of the intermolecular zero point energy and entropy at the melting point of pyridine slightly improves the relative stability of the observed Z = 16 structure. Several of these hypothetical structures can be eliminated as only just mechanically stable, or because the growth rate of the crystal is estimated to be very slow by the attachment energy model. Nevertheless, there are still over a dozen structures that appear competitive with the known structure as polymorphs of pyridine. Following these predictions, an intense experimental search has found a new polymorph of perdeutero-pyridine (form II), which was not found in the search. This structure is also predicted to be metastable with a similar energy to form I. Although there is some evidence for kinetic factors favouring the observed structures, the metastable Z = 16 structure and the new form II remain a challenge for our understanding of crystallisation

Our big announcement on the Trump-Russia scandal.
Not according to the Pentagon and The Nation is fired up about it:
"Every badge hunter and his brother will have this distinguished award in their sights," Army Captain Matthew Nichols wrote in a letter to the editor of Stars and Stripes last spring, when the specter of thousands of emotionally wounded teenaged and twentysomething veterans became an issue too pressing to ignore. Joe Palagyi, national adjutant of the Military Order of the Purple Heart, equated psychological trauma to "almost getting wounded." In other words, if a soldier's postwar life is emotionally shattered directly because of his service to his or her country, then it's their own damn unsoldierly fault; any heroism or quick thinking that led to one's almost—as opposed to actually—getting wounded is not triumphant but rather a gateway to mockery.
Is it just me, or is this one a toughie?
We've all seen enough movies to know that lots of Purple Heart winners took a bullet in the bum under less than glorious, non-dangerous circumstances. Still, there was always the notion that one had to have shed some blood somewhere in theatre to win such an honor, without looking closely at how that blood got spilled. I'm not as disgusted as The Nation. Maybe I will be, but I'm not there yet.
This is one of those issues you never see coming and kinda wish had never come up. I wonder how the question arose; I can't see lots of GIs demanding the PH for their PTSD.
I'm stumped. And I can't stop thinking about it. According to the National Purple Heart Hall of Fame one earns this commendation:
in the name of the President of the United States to any member of the Armed Forces of the United States who, while serving under competent authority in any capacity with one of the U.S. Armed Services after April 5, 1917 has been wounded, killed, died after being wounded, or has been held as a prisoner of war. As it was when General Washington created it, the Purple Heart is specifically a combat decoration.
Emphasis mine.
Presumably, given this wording, advocates are seeking to change the criteria such that 'wounds' need not be physical. I will probably come to regret this, but I think I'm with the brass on this one: Purple Hearts for combat. Massive funding for the care of those GIs with PTSD but not that medal. Besides, anyone who serves in a combat zone is automatically eligible for other very prestigious medals.
I also disagree with The Nation that the Army's attitude is based solely on despising the supposed weaklings who couldn't take it. Certainly, there's a strong stigma against admitting to mental health issues (few GIs would risk talking to military medical types about depression, alcoholism, etc., for legitimate fear of career backlash), but I simply don't accept that that's all there is to the opposition to change. Sympathy for the affliction is no doubt on the rise; one can oppose this change without thinking that all these GIs are either faking or wusses. I do.
So far.

NBA beginning to determine legal strategy in Donald Sterling case
The removal of Donald Sterling from the NBA becomes more complex each day, while rumors of pending litigation grow louder. Sources familiar with the NBA's strategy have provided SI.com with key legal insights on how the NBA plans to oust both Donald Sterling and his wife, Shelly Sterling.
Shelly Sterling is a non-controlling owner of the Clippers
The league, sources say, is not worried about Shelly Sterling's long-term involvement with the team. Currently, she is—as she stresses to the media—a "co-owner" of the Clippers. She and her husband own the team through a family trust. Her husband is barred from any involvement with the Clippers, not because he may later be forced to sell the team, but rather because he has been banned for life. Shelly Sterling, as commissioner Adam Silver has made clear, is not subject to any ban. She can attend games and partake in all activities consistent with those of co-ownership.
But Shelly Sterling's ownership of the Clippers should not be confused with control of the Clippers. This distinction reflects the different layers of NBA ownership. Most NBA owners are not in charge of their teams. They have been approved by the NBA to own some percentage of a franchise, but they do not represent their franchise on the NBA's Board of Governors and are not considered the official voice of their franchises. They are regarded as "non-controlling" owners. There are many perks to being a non-controlling owner, including attendance privileges, inside access to team operations and the ability to tell the world that you own an NBA team. But actual control over the team is not one of those benefits. Shelly Sterling is a non-controlling owner of the Clippers.
Donald Sterling, in contrast, is in a more exclusive and powerful category as one of the NBA's 30 controlling owners. Until his ban, he had final say over all matters Clippers and represented the team in league matters. In his absence, the office of the NBA commissioner has become de facto controlling owner. Earlier today, the league—not Shelly Sterling—installed a new CEO, former Time Warner CEO Dick Parsons, to run the team. While Shelly Sterling has signaled support for the move, her support is irrelevant under the law.
If Shelly Sterling wants to become controlling owner of the Clippers, the league would have to approve such a step. The NBA would not approve Shelly Sterling as controlling owner, sources close to the situation tell SI.com. The league would have compelling grounds to deny her attempt, as it would seem to constitute an "end-around" of the NBA ousting her husband. Shelly Sterling has also been implicated in some of the allegations of racism against her husband, particularly those concerning their ownership and management of housing properties in Los Angeles. Consequently, the NBA could refer to those transgressions as legal justifications to deny a transfer of her ownership from non-controlling to controlling.
California law works against Shelly Sterling keeping the Clippers
California is a community property state, which means that spouses in California jointly own assets acquired during their marriage. Shelly Sterling's ownership of the Clippers is thus inextricably intertwined with Donald Sterling's ownership under California law. In fact, it's believed the NBA could not take Donald Sterling's equity in the Clippers without also taking Shelly Sterling's equity, as the Sterling's joint ownership is legally one entity. There has been much speculation that California law would help Shelly Sterling keep the team, but attorneys familiar with the NBA believe the opposite is true: the unity in spousal assets achieved by California law means that Shelly Sterling must leave the NBA if the same fate befalls her husband.
Clippers franchise agreement will be used against Donald Sterling
In buying an NBA team, Donald Sterling signed a series of legal documents that contain covenants directly related to unethical conduct and immoral positions. These agreements include the franchise agreement to purchase the Clippers and the joint venture agreement in which Sterling contractually assented to the NBA having binding authority over independently-owned NBA teams. These agreements specify that owners are expressly forbidden from engaging in unethical conduct or "taking positions that have a materially adverse effect on the league." They also make clear the NBA commissioner is the final authority on interpreting owners' behavior as it relates to satisfying moral and ethical conduct.
Article 13(d) is the key legal instrument for the NBA to oust both Sterlings
Article 13 of the NBA's constitution details grounds for terminating ownership of an NBA team. There are 10 separate grounds to justify termination. The ground that has received the most attention, 13(a), is apparently not central to the NBA's legal strategy. 13(a) bars any willful violation of league documents. Its expansive wording was thought to give the NBA wide discretion in linking Sterling's conduct to his ouster. However, the fact that Sterling was privately recorded and that the recording was shared without his consent would make it difficult to prove he possessed a willful state of mind to break NBA rules. This is an important distinction from when Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott made racist comments in public, and thus wilfully broke MLB rules. Unlike Schott, Sterling presumably did not intend to publicly embarrass the NBA in public and harm its business. If he had such a desire, he would have likely used a public forum.
13(d) is more limited in scope, but, crucially, does not require Sterling intended to harm the league. 13(d) states that an owner cannot "fail or refuse to fulfill....contractual obligations to the Association, its Members, Players, or any other third party in such a way as to affect the Association or its Members adversely." Sterling's failure to adhere to covenants contained in his franchise agreement and joint venture agreement, among other documents, arguably meant that he failed to satisfy his contractual obligations. The fact that players threatened a boycott and sponsors dropped their support of the Clippers after Sterling's words were made public suggest that Sterling adversely "affected" the NBA and its members adversely.
The NBA also interprets article 13 to mean that if Donald Sterling's financial interest in the Clippers is terminated, the same holds true for others who have legal claims in that interest. As the Clippers are owned through a Sterling family trust, all members of the trust would lose their ownership if the NBA ousts Donald Sterling. Put bluntly, once Donald Sterling is out, the same holds true for the rest of the Sterling family.
NBA is not concerned with accusations of hypocrisy or worries of a "slippery slope"
League officials, sources say, are not concerned with the fact that NBA owners in the past have likely engaged in immoral or unethical conduct without facing league discipline, let alone expulsion. The NBA is focused as much, if not more, on the impact of conduct as the conduct itself. From the NBA's vantage point, Sterling caused a massively negative and unprecedented business impact. The league was genuinely worried about playing games as players threatened a boycott. The President of the United States sharply criticized Sterling and linked Sterling's remarks to the legacy of slavery. Even if Sterling's underlying conduct -- making racist statements in private -- could be considered unexceptionally wrong, the impact of his conduct triggered exceptional, unprecedented and global harm to the NBA. This reasoning explains why, although Sterling had previously been implicated in racist behavior through lawsuits brought by former general manager Elgin Baylor and the U.S. Department of Justice, those incidents did not (for whatever reason) trigger the same social outrage and threaten the NBA's business operations.
The NBA is also not concerned about the risk of a so called "slippery slope" of other owners being ousted. This is a fear that Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban has raised. The requirement of a super-majority of three-quarters of NBA owners voting out an owner was incorporated into the NBA constitution for a reason. It was configured, sources say, to prevent owners from easily ousting each other. The design of the NBA's constitution makes it unlikely that owners would oust another owner anytime soon. Only truly exceptional controversies that damage the NBA's business relations are likely to implicate ouster.
NBA expects Donald Sterling and possibly Shelly Sterling to sue
The NBA, sources say, is "gearing up" for Donald Sterling to file a lawsuit against the league and other owners. The league takes notice to the fact that Sterling has been meeting with prominent law firms. By doing so, Sterling apparently hopes to communicate to the NBA—and his fellow owners—that he will not go down without a fight. The NBA is also aware of the substantial tax benefits Sterling would obtain if he holds onto the team and avoids capital gain taxes (benefits first raised by Robert Raiola, senior manager in the Sports & Entertainment Group of the accounting firm O'Connor Davies, LLP, for SI.com).
The league, sources say, believes it is on strong legal grounds. Sterling's own signature will ultimately come back to haunt him. He signed a series of documents that, in so many words, express that he agreed to whatever disciplinary steps are taken by the commissioner and his fellow owners. While a court could review the NBA's interpretation of the constitution, bylaws and other agreements, a court would accord Silver broad deference to interpret the language of these documents. As to an antitrust claim, sources say it would require a quixotic interpretation of the antitrust law for Sterling to prevail. He would have to show that the NBA and its owners have conspired against him in an anticompetitive way, thus harming the Clippers' value and his return on its sale. Antitrust attorney and law professor Chris Sagers tells SI.com he is pessimistic that Sterling would prevail. "[T]he only injury he'll be able to state would be that he is forced to sell when he doesn't want to and that he'll have to recognize taxable gain at an inopportune time . . . neither seem like an antitrust injury. Merely forcing the sale of the Clippers doesn't remove the Clippers from competition with the other NBA teams and with other entertainment products."
Still, the NBA is aware that Sterling could drag on litigation for months, if not longer, and that pretrial discovery might cause the NBA embarrassment. Sterling's attorneys would likely try to expose fellow owners as bigoted while they are answering questions under oath. Sterling's attorneys would also seek to depose former NBA commissioner David Stern under oath and portray him as engineering a cover-up of NBA owner bigotry.
Shelly Sterling could also sue the NBA and owners, although her legal grounds appear weaker than those of her husband. As noted above, she is not a controlling owner of the Clippers and her marriage to Donald does not make her controlling owner should he be ousted. Whether she agrees with such an interpretation is another story. That is what lawyers are for.

African-American women
experience intimate partner violence at rates 35% higher than their White
counterparts and 2.5 times the rate of men and other races
Intimate partner homicide is
the leading cause of death for African-American women ages 15 to 45
Domestic violence affects
all Americans, regardless of race, gender, or socioeconomic status. However,
this threat has disproportionately dire consequences for African-American women.
One out of four African American men is incarcerated. Nearly 650,000 men are released from prison back to the communities they come from. Many of Safe Return Initiative Building Bridges DVD Cover these men have been victims of violence as children in family, among peers, in community, or in prison and they also have histories of violence against women in intimate partner relationships.
It is acknowledged that due to their prison and life experiences these men return to family and community very angry and at risk for violent and abusive behavior. In fact, many men return to prison due to parole violation related to domestic violence. In order to stop the cycle of violence, it is important to consider ways to promote a "Safe Return" from prison to the community for these men but especially for the women and children to whom they return.
Although parole and current reentry efforts attempt to address the challenges of returning home from prison related to housing, employment, substance abuse and education, little attention is given to domestic violence and what helps men end their violence; and what keeps women and children safe once he returns home.
This DVD highlights the issues related to prisoner reentry and domestic violence and offers examples of collaborations among domestic violence, criminal justice/parole community supervision, and community based programs in addressing domestic violence in the context of reentry.
This Safe Return Initiative is a Partnership between the Office on Violence Against Women, United States Department of Justice and the Institute on Domestic Violence in the African American Community, St. Paul, MN.
The words and opinions of those individuals in the DVD may not reflect that of the Office on Violence Against Women.

Critical Analysis of Gibbs Reflective Cycle
Submitted by:
Date Submitted:
Report this Essay
This is intended to be a critically reflective essay based around Gibbs reflective cycle (Gibbs 1992) on the ability to foster empowerment of myself and of the learner I worked with, to develop our skills and, through reflection, promote lifelong learning. Reflection is an active process that enables health care professionals gain a deeper understanding of their experiences (Conway 1996) and serves to extend our professionalism and develop our confidence in a bid to make sense of clinical experiences (Ghaye, Gillespie & Lillyman 2000). It can aid us in our ability to resolve the contradictions between what is desirable and what is actual practice, making us more self aware and thus become empowered to respond differently in future situations (Johns 1995 & 2004).
Fundamental to promoting learning and the increase in standards and quality this brings is the concept of empowerment. Mason (1991) suggested that empowerment includes enabling people to recognise their strengths, abilities and personal power. Nicklin & Kenworthy (2000) identified three elements to this concept, capability i.e. the learner has the appropriate knowledge, skills and attitude to fulfil their role, confidence to be able to work unsupervised and have the confidence to innovate, and congruence i.e. for the learner to have commitment to and confidence of support within their area of work, being involved in future developments. Development of these skills and the subsequent increase in confidence and dedication to the work area, including wanting to continue to improve, promotes the concept of lifelong learning i.e. continuing to acquire knowledge and skill lasting much or all of ones life. This can be through academic study, by self managed learning such as reading journals, outside interests e.g. hobbies and experiential learning both through work and life experiences. This concept affects not only our work environment, giving job satisfaction, but can facilitate self improvement both...

Now for my WIP quilt tops.
This is from a Christmas Quilt that I am working on.
Here is one from a Stack-N-Wack pattern that I am working on.
Welcome to the Quilting Board!
Now for my WIP quilt tops.
This is from a Christmas Quilt that I am working on.
Here is one from a Stack-N-Wack pattern that I am working on.
I do so appreciate you ladies taking the time to put these photos on here. It is a learning deal. Thanks so much!
This is a great topic. I'm watching it
Quilting is my therapy
Great question and gosh thank you all for sharing the backs of your quilts. That does help me immensely.
Carrie, Queen of the Seam Rippers!
The backs of MY quilts never look that good, ladies. Maybe some day if I keep practicing.
you know i really have to laugh! i've always read in the pamphlets i see "how to prepare your quilt for the longarmer" about cutting all the loose threads
this always made me laugh b/c i thought that's impossible! but now i see what you mean & WHY----hhhhmmmm..........
Please keep giving us advice to make our tops more quilter friendly. I want to make my tops as painfree as possible for the people quilitng my tops.
I know that my crumb quilts drive some quilters crazy because there are too many seams and it causes needle and thread breakage so I don't make my crumb blocks as "crumby" as before.
And when they tell me to square my top before giving it to them, how do I do that?
This thread is great, I learn easiest by sight and touch, so thank you all. I see gray thread being used - is there a number and manufacturer that you use the most? I've heard about the "magic" gray color and have wondered what it is. I'm also a newbie with quilting. Thank you.
I haven't heard about the "magic gray color" before and would be interested in learning about that, too! Do I need to go buy gray thread? Sounds like a good reason to go thread/fabric shopping to me!!!

basement bathroom
Need Help. We are putting a bathroom down our basement. Nothing is stubbed in. We are starting from scratch. I learned that I need to vent the bathroom. Looks like I can run a 1 1/2" line up and over to the main stack in the basement. There is an open cap we can remove and attach our 1 1/2" for vent. Does this sound like this would be adaquite for venting this small bathroom. The distance from the new bathroom and the stack is maybe 15'.
199 Attachment(s)
No, a toilet needs a 2" vent. Also sounds like you want to tie the vent back to the drain stack that serves fixtures upstairs. Can't do that either. But some pictures of your existing pipes will help us give some clearer answers. Also codes vary across the country. Where do you live?
I live in Ohio. What do you think about an AAV valve ?
If there isnt any other plumbing in the basement the vent will need to be tied in above the highest fixture in the house to be legal.

Free PSA and TSH tests this weekend. Two small bits of news, too.Posted by Donna Freedman on Jun 5, 2013 | 4 comments
Sam's Club is at it again, offering free health testing at all stores with pharmacies. This time they've got something specifically for the guys.
From 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, June 8, men can get a free prostate specific antigen (PSA) test. This screening can help identify cancer early on, long before any symptoms show up.
One in six men over 50 years of age will develop prostate cancer. It's one of the most common types of cancer affecting men in the United States – and one of the leading causes of death in that group.
Women can get their thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) levels checked, to look for signs of under- or overactive thyroid. Both can cause an assortment of health issues. I can vouch for this one: Back in 2008 I was just crawling through the days but assumed my hectic schedule (middle-aged college student, apartment house manager, MSN Money blogger) was to blame.
That was part of it, but a sub-par thyroid was the rest of it. A low-dose synthetic hormone (generic, of course) has made all the difference in the world.
Also up for grabs are blood pressure check, vision test and body mass index measurement. You don't need to be a Sam's Club member to take advantage of these free tests.
In other news…
My article "A satisfied life" was an Editor's Pick in the Carnival of Personal Finance over at Planting Our Pennies. Thanks for the shout-out, PoP.
Entering blog carnivals was one of the things that fell by the wayside when I was so busy. I'd like to get back into this again. They're a great chance learn about sites that you might not find on your own – and, of course, being selected is a sensational boost to one's ego.
Finally: I had the distinct pleasure recently of getting an invitation to SaveUp13, a three-day conference sponsored by Savings.com. I've attended in the past but not for a couple of years now. It will be fun to get together and talk about money-saving ideas with a bunch of like-minded writers.
Bonus: The previous two conferences yielded interesting grab-bags of items to give away on my site. Wondering what will be available this year – but whatever it is had better be sturdy because the conference takes place in early August. In Orlando. Just typing those words made me sweat.

Christian Meditation
What is Christian meditation?
Meditation is a universal spiritual wisdom and a practice that we find at the core of all the great religious traditions, leading from the mind to the heart. It is a way of simplicity, silence and stillness. It can be practised by anyone from wherever you are on your life's journey. It is only necessary to be clear about the practice and then to begin – and keep beginning.
Meditation in the Christian tradition comes to us from the early Christian monks - the Desert Fathers and Mothers and allows us to put into practice the teaching of Jesus on prayer in a radical and simple way.
Christian Meditation, led by Fr Vince, is on Wednesday evenings at 7.30pm in the Church at St Bernard's. All welcome.

Rather than making movies these days, Amanda Bynes is making headlines with all of her super strange behavior.
And the "She's the Man" actress took to her Twitter account to post a sexually explicit message to R&B singer Drake early this morning (March 22).
Miss Bynes simply wrote, "I want @drake to murder my vagina," followed by another tweet that read, "Twerking out."
Amanda previously posted a 'face swap' photo of Drake with the caption, "He's the woman bwahahaha @drake," as well as a message that said, [email protected] is a hot fellow :D."
Ummm, what?!

The only stupid question is the one that's never asked.
I've been out on both. Not the same hull. Wish I new more. The 28 is their own hull design. I think the apache may have been made by blocking off a larger 33ft mold. Not sure about that. They do ride differently. Best I could describe it is that the apache felt like it crushed the water and the pantera felt like it rode on top a little more. I think if I was racing I'd rather be on top.
The pantera has a much lower freeboard. The apache's cabin has much more headroom, which makes it feel a lot more roomier than the pantera. The apache engine bay is a little deeper.......enough to fit twin 850's without scoops. The pantera has a roomier cockpit and a bigger engine hatch. The older pantera's are a little lighter than the apache (around 500lbs). I think the pantera is set up and geared more for the boat racer. The apache is more of a cruiser geared to the family boater. IMO you couldn't go wrong with either choice - whether those differences are good or bad just depends on your preference. I could argue both sides.
The 28 saber is also worth a look. Good luck.
I know there are some video's on youtube of a guy driving his older pantera. I just posted some of my boat running. You may be able to get a good comparison that way.

Destination Osoyoos teams up with chamber on pilot project to promote local businesses
Destination Osoyoos (DO) has teamed up with the South Okanagan Chamber of Commerce (SOCC) on a new pilot project to try and promote local businesses and the services they provide.
The project includes a new display that recently opened in the front entrance of the DO head office on Main Street next door to town hall.
As well, SOCC administrative assistant Alicia Osland will be working from the DO storefront office 30 hours per week over the next several months to meet with visitors and locals alike to inform them about local businesses and promote the community.
The name of the new pilot project is "Discover Osoyoos," said Gail Scott, who accepted the position of managing director with DO almost three months ago.
The idea is to promote local businesses and the goods and services they offer, while also providing hands-on customer service to the many people who visit the DO office every week, said Scott. Scott said she wanted to make it very clear that Discover Osoyoos is not in direct competition with the services offered and provided at the B.C. Visitors Centre located on Hwy. 97 and Main Street.
Discover Osoyoos will feature a kiosk inside the DO front entrance that sells T-shirts and features pamphlets and promotional material for numerous local businesses, said Bonnie Dancey, the chief executive officer of the SOCC.
"The idea is to promote local businesses, while providing visitors with a little bit of information about Osoyoos," she said. "We'll also be showing and selling a few local products produced by local businesses. We'll sell things like T-shirts, soaps, jewelry, that sort of thing,"
The pilot project will last until the end of this year at which time management with DO and the SOCC will determine if a permanent storefront operation should be set up at the DO office, said Dancey.
"We will be keeping stats to see how many people visit the office and how many items we sell from local businesses," she said. "If we see a need for this to move from a pilot project to a permanent thing, then we'll make decisions soon after the pilot wraps up."
Town of Osoyoos council recently signed an agreement with DO's board to not only become the town's official marketing and promotion agency, but also its economic development arm, said Scott.
"This pilot project is in direct response to the expansion of DO's role in being responsible for economic development," she said. "One of the best ways we believe DO can reach out and support local businesses is to showcase their goods and services and help them increase sales and that's what this project is all about."
Because of the central location on Main Street, dozens of tourists visit the DO office since she started her new job and having Osland on hand to answer all of their questions is a big part of the partnership agreement between DO and the SOCC, said Scott.
"Alicia has lived in this community for many years and she knows what's going on and what businesses offer what services and her expertise is going to be very helpful to all of the people who visit our office," she said.
Osland will also be working every Saturday morning for the rest of the summer to answer questions and provide information to the hundreds of people who attend the Market on Main farmers market, said Scott.
The Discover Osoyoos office will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

S&P Upgrades Marsh & McLennan
Marsh & McLennan (MMC ): Upgrades to 3 STARS (hold) from 1 STAR (sell)
Analyst: Gregory Simcik, CFA
Marsh & McLennan outlines a new insurance broker business model, designed to protect market position. Changes to be implemented by Jan. 2005 include the permanent worldwide elimination of contingent commissions and transparency for clients of commissions and underwriter negotiations. We still believe current industry turmoil may lead to higher competition for client accounts and are skeptical that Marsh & McLennan can easily replace lost contingents with increased commission rates. We are also concerned by the possibility that some commission rates could be lowered as part of a settlement remedy.
PeopleSoft (PSFT ): Reiterates 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Jonathan Rudy, CFA
The European Commission today cleared the proposed acquisition of PeopleSoft by Oracle, saying the $7.7 billion cash tender did not violate antitrust laws. The deal was approved without conditions. While we think this removes the last regulatory hurdle to the transaction, there remain notable barriers, such as PeopleSoft's poison pill and customer assurance program, in addition to the company's outstanding suit against Oracle for $1 billion in damages. But trading at a discount to peers on an enterprise value/sales basis, we would hold PeopleSoft, despite the ongoing distraction of Oracle's hostile offer.
Broadcom (BRCM ): Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Amrit Tewary
Broadcom announced that Scott A. McGregor, currently president and CEO of the Philips Semiconductors division of Royal Philips Electronics, will replace Alan Ross as the company's President and CEO, effective January 3, 2005. At that time, Mr. McGregor will also take a place on Broadcom's board. We believe Mr. McGregor's more than six years of high-level management experience at Philips should make his transition to Broadcom easier. We would hold Broadcom shares, as we think the stock price fairly reflects our concerns about moderating growth and the company's relatively low earnings quality.
Flextronics International (FLEX ): Downgrades to 4 STARS (accumulate) from 5 STARS (buy)
Analyst: Richard Stice, CFA
Flextronics posted September-quarter earnings per share 17 cents, before amortization and restructuring charges, vs. 9 cents, in line with our estimate. Net sales increased 7% sequentially, aided by strength in computers and office automation segment. But the company says consumer and communications end-markets are softer than expected. As a result, we are reducing our fiscal 2005 (Mar.) earnings-per-share estimate by 5 cents to 68 cents, and our 12-month target price by $3 to $14. However, we believe Flextronics remains attractive, given our view of its favorable industry position and improving operating leverage.
Halliburton (HAL ): Reiterates 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Stewart Glickman
Beating our estimate by 3 cents, Halliburton posted third-quarter earnings per share of 39 cents, before a 6-cent asset sale gain, a 3-cent one-time charge and a 51-cent loss on discontinued operations, vs. year-ago earnings per share of 21 cents. Results benefitted from strong margins in energy systems, and despite operating losses in the KBR unit. The company has cut its working capital in the unit, which we see as positive move. Halliburton is priced at 8.7 times our 2005 EBITDA estimate, below peers, and at discount as well on ratios of price to cash flow, but seems fairly valued to our discounted-cash-flow model. Blending the measures, our 12-month target price rises $5 to $38.
T. Rowe Price (TROW ): Reiterates 4 STARS (accumulate)
Analyst: Robert Hansen, CFA
T. Rowe Price's third-quarter earnings per share of 62 cents, vs. 51 cents, is below our 63 cents estimate. Results were helped by a 2.5% sequential rise in assets under management to $212 billion, reflecting net inflows of $5.8 billion. We see strong inflows into T. Rowe's higher-margin equity funds in 2005, given our view of their strong relative performance. We are lowering our 2004 earnings per share estimate to $2.41 from $2.42, but raising 2005's to $2.80 from $2.75. Our 12-month target price stays at $60, about 21 times our 2005 earnings per share estimate, above peers but near historical average. We would accumulate T. Rowe given our view of its strong competitive advantage.
American Express (AXP ): Maintains 3 STARS (hold)
Analyst: Evan Momios, CFA
American Express posted third-quarter earnings per share of 69 cents, vs. 59 cents, 3 cents above our estimate. Results reflect strong cardmember spending and credit quality trends. We view American Express as a leading global consumer finance franchise that should sustain its above-average profitability in an improving economy. In terms of earnings per share growth, we view 2004 as an above-trend year and expect 2005 to be more in line with the company's long-term goals. We are raising our 2004 earnings per share estimate by 3 cents to $2.73, and keeping 2005's at $3.05. Our 12-month target price remains $56, or 18.3 times our 2005 earnings per share estimate.

Jeanie...sorry to hear about your kitchen. I noticed when mine was redone in my condo that all of the doors were smaller. That doesn't make any sense does it? Enjoy the family!
Mirabelle...at least you look like you were dressed for the cold. It looks like DD was making a mad dash to get out of the picture in the sewing machine set up. What a considerate DH...allowing you time to recover and continuing the celebration....coffee in bed! DD's SPIKE block looks interesting. Completely different with the dark background. I look forward to seeing it straight on.
The forcast is for hot and humid for most of the week. I should do apples but without AC, the house would be unbearably hot...so I'll just suffer and sew!

Vietnam War, remembered

Agua Tibia Wilderness
Near Temecula
"Chaparral" is the name given to the assemblage of tough, drought-resistant, deep-rooted, intricately branched shrubs that cling to coastal and foothill slopes throughout Central and Southern California. As with much of our local natural vegetation, chaparral's charms become apparent only after periods of sustained rainfall. By March ceanothus (wild lilac) will be in bloom, spreading plumes of while and blue over the hillsides. Out Temecula way, in a northern portion of the Cleveland National Forest, lies the Agua Tibia Wilderness, 16,000 acres of hillsides covered by growths of chaparral so dense that trails there must be cleared of overgrowth almost every year. Two of these trails, named Dripping Springs and Wild Horse, swing up into the chaparral from Dripping Springs Campground, ten miles east of Interstate 15 at Temecula. In the spring of any wet year, wildflowers associated with the chaparral plant community burgeon shamelessly here. Call Cleveland National Forest, (760) 788-0250 for more information.

Perk: 'I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me'
|06.16.10 at 5:16 pm ET
LOS ANGELES — When Kendrick Perkins was asked how he was feeling on Wednesday after getting the word from doctors that his season ended when he went down in the paint with 5:30 left in the first quarter, he responded with a question of his own.
"Physically, or mentally?" Perkins replied.
That response indicated just how painful Tuesday night's season ending knee injury was to the Celtics starting center.
Perkins then elaborated that he tore his MCL and suffered a partial tear of another ligament in his right knee in Game 6 and will not play in Game 7 Thursday.
"Physically, I'm in pain," Perkins announced. "I hurt my knee pretty badly. I'm out for [Thursday]. There's nothing I can do about it.
"Torn MCL and a torn PCL, so got to watch from the sideline. I'd be lying to you if I told you it didn't hurt, but it hurts. Game 7 of the finals, Game 6 of the finals, couldn't help your team. Can't do nothing but sit on the side and encourage guys to play better and play well. I'll probably never get this opportunity again to even make it back to the finals. Physically I'm doing better than I am mentally."
Had last night's injury occured in the middle of the season, Perkins would not have even made the finals.
"Last night, pretty sure that I wasn't going to play," Perkins said. "But [Wednesday] morning, it was like, you're out. That's what it was, 'You're out.' He told me if it was in December that if I had hurt my knee in December I probably would have missed the remainder of the season. So that tells you what it's like."
Perkins, who said he had yet to have an MRI on the knee, made the announcement himself as he met with the media on Wednesday afternoon at Staples Center. Perkins said he expects to have an MRI on Friday when the team arrives back in Boston.
Perkins injured his right knee in a collision with Andrew Bynum under the Lakers basket midway through the first quarter.
"Game 7 of the finals, Game 6 of the finals, couldn't help your team, can't really do nothing but sit on the sidelines and encourage guys to play better and play well," Perkins said.
Perkins knew immediately that something was seriously wrong when he hit the floor.
"I knew something was wrong," he said. "I didn't know what it was. I couldn't get up on my own. I couldn't walk. My whole leg was hurting. The back of my knee was hurting, in pain. I heard something pop. I didn't know what it was, but it was pain."
Perkins decided to come out and meet with the media, something he didn't necessarily have to do considering the emotional and physical pain he's dealt with since going down in Game 6.
"It's the finals," Perkins said. "Last practice of the season, last game of the season, you kind of just want to be with your teammates and coaches, just be around the guys, especially after a tough loss like last night where you just kind of want to be around, just get that family feeling. You know, you don't want to be in your room all day by yourself.
"I know when we lose, we always say when we get to the locker room, we feel a lot better when we get around each other. So I just felt like I needed to be around."
The more Perkins talked, he sounded like a parent who didn't want his children to get distracted by his own misfortune.
"It was hard [Tuesday] night," Perkins said. "I think my teammates, coaches, the whole Celtics organization has been great supporting me. But it's hard because you have a lot of people asking me, 'How are you feeling and get better and things like that, at the same time, it's not about me. We're trying to win a championship. It's not about me and I don't want the focus to be on me from my teammates or nobody. I don't want anyone feeling sorry for me. We have a game to win.
"I just want them to stay focused on the game. I'm going to be alright. It's an important game coming up. I appreciate my teammates and coaches and their concerns. It's not about me. This is about winning a title."
And Perkins said he has complete faith in the group of Glen Davis, Rasheed Wallace, Shelden Williams and possibly Brian Scalabrine to fill his shoes.
"Very confident," Perkins said of his thoughts going into Game 7. "I think we're in pretty good shape. I like the way our film session went. A lot of positive criticism so it went well. I think we're going to be alright [Thursday].
Lamar Odom said he's expecting nothing less than the best from Perkins' replacements.
"You know, it's funny, I was sitting on the bench, and they got Rasheed Wallace and Kevin Garnett on the court at the same time, and those guys have had great careers," Odom said. "Glen Davis is a fighter, as well. I mean, their team is still really competitive. Of course, any time you lose anyone, especially at this time of the year but it happens. It's something we have to go through as a team. I just wish him well."
Perkins had one more word for his teammates.
"No regrets, no regrets tomorrow," he said. "It's the last game year, period. There's no more games. You don't want any more regrets after the game. I think the biggest thing is we have to be together."
WEEI.com's Joe Zarbano has the video of Perkins from Staples Wednesday afternoon.

This tutorial would show how to disable automatic synchronization of Windows 8 with Windows Live ID. You can also allow specific data to be synced.
One of the best features of Windows 8 is synchronization. If logged-on with a Windows Live ID, Windows 8 syncs every personalization of Windows 8 with Live ID and if users log-in to another machine with the same id and all personalization is synced automatically to that machine. The personalization may include wallpapers, color scheme, sound scheme, Metro-Style Internet Explorer's Pinned tabs, bookmarks, saved password, all the tiles pinned to Metro-UI, lock screen image and some app settings etc.
By default, synchronization is enabled when you log-in to Windows 8 using your Live ID. But, it can be manually turned off by going through the settings in Metro-Style Control Panel.
Just follow the instruction below and you would control which data is synced and which not.
- First of all go to Metro-UI of Windows 8 (Also known as Start Menu in previous versions of Windows)
- Now, open up Metro-Style Control Panel (If it's not there, just type 'control panel' in Metro-UI and it would show)
Note: 'Control Panel' would be renamed as 'PC Settings' in next version of Windows 8.
- After opening Control Panel, go to 'Sync PC Settings'. It should be the fourth one from last.
- Now, your sync settings tab would open. That's where you would turn on/off sync as well as select which options to sync.
How to turn off Complete Sync?
You can turn off complete sync by using the first switch on the 'Sync PC Settings' tab
How to turn On/Off specific sync options?
You can also turn off specific things which you don't want to be synced. You can turn on/off the following things:
- Personalize e.g. colors, background and lock screen image (Hopefully Metro-UI background color would also be sync able when the option comes in Windows 8 Beta)
- Theme including sounds, wallpapers and other personalization etc
- All ease of access's customized options
- Language Settings
- App Settings (Apps downloaded from Windows Store would also be synced within five machines)
- Almost all Internet Explorer options e.g. bookmarks, favorites, passwords and history etc.
- Customizations in Windows Explorer and mouse settings would also be synced.
- Passwords for certain Metro Apps would be synced
You can turn off every option individually or just switch complete sync off by using the first switch on the Sync Settings tab.
Sync options on Devices with limited internet usage
Mobile devices e.g. tablets, sometimes have limited data plans and users may want to save the data usage. In that case Microsoft has also included the sync option to be turned on/off while on the mobile broadband network and it would be turned on(automtically) when you connect to a Wi-Fi or LAN network. You can read more about data usage in an article on Wireless networks in Windows 8.
You may visit our Tips & tweaks section for more tips, tricks and shortcuts about Windows 8.

The state of business writing is generally dismal today. If I had a nickel for every poorly written article or blog post I've seen, I'd have quite a few nickels. Passive voice, horrible jargon, and run-on sentences make much if not most text confusing at best and downright inscrutable at worst.
Employee stock ownership plans, which have been around for years, are lately seeing a bit of a comeback. But the vast majority of American companies are still locked in the old hyper-capitalist model that views workers as costs to be cut rather than as partners to share in success.
By Laura Woods, Contributor The Yahoo sale officially entered its second stage as the company released its dismal first quarter earnings report. Al...
First of all, there are only two names that matter right now. One you know, and one you should.
color me extremely skeptical that the coup being instituted by the spreadsheet jockeys at a New York investment firm will cure what ails Yahoo!.
An activist investor group called Starboard Value said in a letter to other Yahoo shareholders last week that it wants a new group of people to oversee a "turnaround plan, separation, or sale of assets."
I don't envy Marissa Mayer. Yahoo's CEO has struggled to turn the tech company around in recent years. Now she faces pressure from activist investors who want her to engage in "strategic alternatives" -- boardroom speak for a sale of Yahoo's core business.
In the modern age of knowledge workers, the issue of where and how we work has become complicated. Here's why: remote work.
If I were Marissa Mayer, I'd say/write the following to anyone who is in any way curious about Yahoo and its future. It's what I refer to as "assertive humility."
Believing in leadership is like believing in religion: if you expect perfection from those mortals who practice it, you will be mightily disappointed.
There is no way to lean in at work and lean in at home. And what Sandberg and Mayer have that most other working mothers don't is millions of dollars to spend on the highest quality of daycare.
When half the world's population have no role models of their own gender in important industries, it is more difficult to develop a culture of success.
After a few days of deliberation, Yahoo!'s Board rejected Marissa Mayer's strategy to spin-off its 15 percent stake in Alibaba estimated to be worth $31 billion into a new company called Aabaco.
In what ways is Mayer being held to a higher standard because she's a woman? Because she's a pregnant woman, a regrettable anomaly in the Fortune 500? Perhaps because she's a relatively young woman -- at 40, she's more than a decade younger than the median age of CEOs in the Fortune 1000. Or is it her femininity?
A spokesperson for Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer announced today that Mayer is overwhelmed by the outpouring of heartfelt insults in response to her announcement that she is pregnant and plans to take a limited maternity leave. S
Here's the question that must be asked: Why are we questioning Marissa Mayer's personal decision about how to balance her work and family lives when too few people have this option at all? The last time a male CEO was asked questions about how he would balance having a new baby and with work was never.

This is Hope's Mommy writing: This is a very sad day for us. We had to help Hope cross the Rainbow Bridge today.
She had started limping about a month ago & then week before last, her left hind leg started swelling & she started losing weight. We took her to the vet & they said she had a broken leg but were not able to determine how it happened since she is an indoor cat & doesnt jump up on high things. They indicated the break was very unusual looking & took xrays of her legs & hips. It was determined she had bone cancer & they recommended several options - 1) leaving it as it was and letting nature takes it course (they were pretty sure the cancer had spread). 2) putting a pin in to try to get the bone to grow back. 3) amputation.
They recommended we try to get her strength up some before the surgery & put her on pain meds while we made the decision.
We decided to let the doctor do the surgery this week. They said she was in a lot of pain. We felt amputation was the best option.
We took her to the vet's office on Tuesday & her surgery was this morning. She had a tough time during surgery & they had to "save" her several times. Then about 3 hours ago, they called to say she wasnt doing well and had stopped breathing several times & they thought the end was near. They put her on IVs of heart meds & oxygen.
We went to tell her goodbye & stayed with her while she crossed the bridge. This is one of the hardest things I have ever had to do. But she is no longer suffering & she had a good life with us. Her brothers & sisters love her so much. They are looking for her tonight.
Our sweet Butterball is running & jumping with her friends (I think of Pea & what a good friend she was to Hope). Bet they are having a good time together.
Please say a purrer for us tonight.
Hope & Pea - be sweet & take care of each other.
Finally - My Papa took new pictures. I have added one so far to my page. Check it out. Does this look like the same poor skinny kittie I was when my Papa rescued me? I am so fluffy now!!! I am a true "redhead" now!!!
The first week of July marks the first anniversary of my rescue from the dumpster with my kittens. So much has happened in the past year.
I am healthy and very "fluffy". My papa has nicknamed me Butterball. He is so nice to me and I enjoy living with my family so much.
Granddaddy still has my kittens and he says they are really growing up. He has built a big outdoor cage for them and they play outside whenever they want. I am glad they have a good home too.
Wanted to update everyone on my progress and publically thank my wonderful family for all they do for me.
Well, time to eat and go to bed. More later.
