The third time was the charm for Orbital Sciences, which finally launched its Antares rocket and put a payload in orbit, including a "mass simulator" of the Cygnus spacecraft and three tiny "cubesats" that will take pictures and deliver data using an Android smartphone.
The 133-foot-tall rocket lifted off from the Virginia coast and made a "majestic" ascent to begin the first of two test flights before Orbital begins cargo flights to the International Space Station under the NASA's commercial cargo resupply services program.
"Today's successful test marks another significant milestone in NASA's plan to rely on American companies to launch supplies and astronauts to the International Space Station," NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said in a statement after the launch.
Antares is one of two launch vehicle systems — the other being SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Dragon — NASA has hired to truck cargo so it can focus on space exploration. The agency is paying Orbital $1.9 billion to fly eight missions carrying roughly 20,000 kilograms (44,000 pounds) of supplies through 2016.
Sunday's launch was the first for Antares, but one of several dozen launch vehicles Orbital has flown since its founding in 1982. It marks a giant step forward for the company's biggest, most complex rocket ahead of cargo delivery flights.
"We will now move forward toward completing the full demonstration mission of our system to resupply the International Space Station with essential cargo in just a couple of months," company CEO and co-founder David Thompson said in a statement.
The launch went off without a hitch, if you disregard the small brush fire at the launch pad, after being twice delayed for reasons that had nothing to do with the rocket. Wednesday's launch was scrubbed for the most mundane of reasons when an Ethernet cord disconnected 15 minutes before launch, leaving engineers unable to communicate with the rocket. Saturday's launch was postponed due to high winds at altitude.
"You thought we were delaying launches," Orbital v.p. Frank Culbertson after the launch, "but we were really just practicing."
Orbital's rocket successfully demonstrated the company's strategy of integrating existing designs, mostly by veterans of the former Soviet Union's space program, instead of developing everything from scratch like SpaceX. The liquid fueled rocket, for example, is powered by a pair of engines designed for the Soviet lunar program, though they have reworked by Aerojet of California. The main part of the rocket, including the fuel and oxidizer tank, are from a Ukrainian company that has been making rockets for decades. The second stage booster is from ATK, the current iteration of the firm that built the space shuttle's solid rocket boosters.
All this veteran technology took its sweet time leaving the earth. Antares weighed about 630,000 pounds at launch, including the 8,300 pound dummy payload simulating the Cygnus spacecraft. Some 740,000 pounds of thrust sent it skyward in what Culbertson — a veteran space shuttle astronaut — called a "majestic" ascent.
As 41,000 gallons of liquid oxygen and 21,000 gallons of high-grade kerosene rocket fuel rapidly burned, the rocket reached an altitude of more than 100 kilometers (62 miles) less than four minutes after launch. After coasting for 98 seconds, the solid fuel second stage ignited, boosting the payload to an orbit some 250 kilometers (157 miles) high less than five minutes later. Culbertson said each stage went according to plan — everything was "nominal" in aerospeak. The successful flight gives the team confidence about upcoming missions, and Culbertson said.
"All of that demonstrated that when we do this again, we know how to make this happen," he said. "And we will get that payload, Cygnus, into orbit and on its way to the ISS."
The main payload was the mass simulator, a dummy payload that weighs as much as the Cygnus spacecraft that will deliver cargo to the ISS. It is made largely of aluminum and designed to burn during reentry roughly two weeks from now. The simulator was heavily instrumented to measure acceleration, temperature, vibration and sound, providing engineers with data about the launch conditions the payload will experience. Cygnus also is designed to burn during reentry.
The secondary payload included three small cubesats from NASA's small satellite program. Cubesats — popular with hobbyists — can be purchased online and easily customized to carry a variety of payloads. A single unit cubesat (1U) measures 10 centimeters per side; they can be combined to create multiple payloads. A 3U cubesat was aboard Antares.
NASA's Andrew Petro oversees the program that launched the Antares "phonesats" and says the cubes — named Alexander, Graham and Bell — are testing the viability of using smart phones as inexpensive flight computers. He said investments in cellular technology NASA made decades ago are paying off as Nexus One phones in the cubesats take pictures and transmitting data to earth.
"It's sort of a Sputnik capability," Petro said, understating what the small satellites can do. "But it's proving out that this kind of extremely low cost technology can now be used."
Amateur radio operators can monitor the transmissions and people on the ground can even download picture data from satellites as they fly overhead. The phones are largely stock but fitted with a larger battery expected to last about a week. Petro says the parts for the satellites cost about $3,500 each. The three phonesats in orbit have no propulsion system, a feature slated for future phonesats in addition to solar panels to provide power.
A second Antares flight is expected to launch some time in late June or early July. That flight will have an actual Cygnus spacecraft on board which will be used to demonstrate approach and docking procedures with the ISS. Assuming the final test goes according to plan, Orbital says it expects to continue launching Antares rockets from the Virginia coast every 3-6 months until its cargo contract is completed in 2016.Go Back to Top.

Potato-Kale Soup
During this busy holiday season, I have rediscovered the wonders of soup. It takes so few ingredients to make a great pot of filling soup! Until recently my favorite was a pumpkin soup. Then a friend dropped off a great big bag of home grown fingerling potatoes and I decided to make a Kale-Potato soup with bacon and cheese. This soup has become a favorite in our house, and takes about 30 minutes to make. It can be as simple as you like (try adding Trader Joe's sausage), or more complex with the addition of bacon and grated cheese.
Oh, yeah, and I also made my first apple pie!
But back to the soup:)
3 tbsp oil or bacon fat
1 onion, chopped
8-10 or so fingerling potatoes, washed, and peeled and chopped into 1-inch chunks (about 3 cups?)
1 bunch kale, washed and chopped
1 clove garlic, diced or crushed
6 cups stock
1/2 cup half and half
salt and pepper
sliced grilled sausage, or bacon and grated cheese to garnish.
To Make
Sautee onion in fat in stock pot until soft.
Add potatoes and stock and simmer about 20 minutes until soft
Add garlic and blend with immersion blender until creamy. Bring back to simmer and add kale, simmer 5 more minutes or so, until kale is tender.
Turn off heat, add half and half, salt and pepper to taste
Serve with diced bacon, grated cheese or cooked sausage slices.

Veteran rides for wounded warriors
With all the Ice Bucket Challenge talk, I thought I would shine a light on another amazing group of people who could really use your help. Our veterans.
Right now, a Marine veteran is riding cross country, from Camp Lejeune, North Carolina to Camp Pendleton on horseback to raise awareness and money for wounded veterans.
Matt Littrell served two tours in Iraq and he says the experience left deep scars, the kind that aren't always visible, the kind that are so painful and hard to deal with, that it makes you think about ending it all. Read more about him HERE.
He decided to do something to draw attention to what veterans deal with, so back in May he decided to ride cross country and generate as much attention as possible, and to show veterans that someone cares.
His goal is to raise $7 million, and I believe he can do it!
Follow Matt's progress on Twitter HERE and Facebook HERE.

If you like your bang sticks, try this .905 caliber rifle, sold as the largest caliber rifle in the world. It has a kick so strong that it simply cannot be fired off-handed and must be bench fired.
The big iron was made by Ohio-based SSK Industries and packs a wallop both on the range and in the wallet.
(Also of interest: Gun Group Raises $12,000 For Zimmerman To Buy Guns & Security)
The monstrous bullet this piece fires costs about $40 a shot and is made up of 2,400 grains of lead and 240 grains of smokeless powder. When fired it flies at about 2,100 feet per second. The bullet is "25,400 foot pounds of muzzle energy and recoil is 277 foot pounds of recoil energy which is like firing ten thirty aught sixes at one time," said Dave Fricke of Millennium Manufacturing.
If you are going to fire this puppy, you'd better be ready for a shoulder bruise that'll last a few days.

For a little comparison, a typical sniper round weighs about 200 grains of lead, but THIS thing is made of 2,40 grains of lead!

Of course, this rifle is over kill, if you'll excuse the pun. This rifle is useless for practically everything a gun could be used for. But it isn't its utility that it was created for. It was created for the novelty of it all. This rifle can't be used in hunting or even war, granted, but firing a nearly thousand caliber gun? That is just plain fun for many.
So, what do you think? Would this be fun to fire? Tell us below.

The IOT Project Success Center mission is to Organize, Execute and Deliver a quality product or service for the State of Indiana utilizing industry best practices and a structured framework
Our goals are three-fold
Check out the Start a Project page to find what you need to request a project, understand the IOT Project Management Framework and everything else to successfully deliver your project.
IOT's goal is to capture, rank and report all IT projects, including projects from State agencies, and the resources associated with those projects. The goal of this undertaking is to accomplish two things. The first is to establish clear priorities with regards to projects. By having complete visibility and ranking of all projects, IOT can make better informed decisions on which projects to prioritize based upon important factors such as risk, value and roadmap dependencies. The second goal is to more effectively manage time and resources. Project prioritization and resource allocation will help IOT align, commit, and plan available resources for current and future projects to help drive efficient and timely project completion.
All IOT projects start with a Project Request. Once the Project Success Center (PSC) receives such a request, it conducts a project classification assessment to determine if the request is indeed a project, rather than a fix or improvement to an existing system, and to obtain an overall priority, complexity, and risk score. The PSC uses the priority score to rank projects within the entire project portfolio to help ensure IOT resources are focused on the right projects that will yield the highest value for the State of Indiana. The complexity and risk scores are used by the PSC to categorize projects as basic, medium or high and help identify the appropriate project tools and templates that are recommended based on the category.
Basic complexity projects typically involve reduced impact or risk for the agency. In such a project, a PSC project manager generally can oversee, mentor, and/or advise the person that submitted the project request, or another designee. Medium and High complexity projects require increased levels of PSC oversight and project management expertise. A project manager from PSC assumes the lead role in these projects and leverages the proven PSC project management framework, processes and tools to tailor an approach that meets the unique needs of the particular project with an ultimate goal of delivering a successful, on time, on budget and high-quality project that meets or exceeds expectations.

Help needed with AC fan not coming on
Hi all,
Hoping someone can assist me with this issue.
For our 2 story house the AC unit heat pump will come and intitially outside AC unit fan will work fine. After a while when the heat pump comes on and AC starts the outside unit fan will not come on anymore. Only way to stop the upstairs heat pump unit is to power it off with the side switch. It does not respomd to thermostat.ie- when I trun off the thermostat the heat pump continues it's run, not stopping.
I had a HVAC repair guy come over. first he did some work on the water condense lines and that did not fix the issue. Second he replaced the thermostat twice thinking that would solve the issue. this did not work either. He still thinks it is related to thermostat but not sure. I am losing faith that he knows where the issue is.
Can someone please chime in and possibly give their opinion where the problem(s) maybe? I thank you in advance
If the outside unit is continually running then it's certainly sounds like a stuck contactor but I fail to see how it won't come on being a stuck contactor. He needs to verify if the unit outside is receiving 24 volts to the contactor to tell the unit to come on during cooling mode. If not then you back track to the stat. Now if it only will not come in cooling mode and there is proof that there is no 24 volts present at the outside unit than can I ask if you have a drain pan or drain line condensate float safety switch? Those are usually tied into the 24 volt line to the outside unit and only has power through it in cooling mode as that's when you use the a/c.
If that switch is tripped (located on the drain line or drain pan of the inside unit) than you won't have power to the contactor during cool, nothing can tell the outside unit to come on. And you have a drain issue.
Doc Holliday,
thanks for the reply.
I probably explained it wrong.
It is that the inside unit in the attic (the heat pump unit) is the one that is constantly running but the fan on the outside unit fails to come on. The air is blowing from the ducts but I sense that warm air from the inside in not being pulled out since the outside unit motor/fan does not come on. hope this makes sense. thanks for any additonal input you can provide.
you have 2 problems. try to fix the condenser fix....outdoor unit by checking the dual capacitor
Sent from my iPhone using DIY Forum
Is this a Goodman indoor unit?
yes, it sure is a Goodman unit
Probably the fan sequencer sticking. Common problem with them.
thanks for the reply. where is the fan sequencer? would it be easy to locate and replace? or another call to service guy...thanks
Inside the blower panel near the end of the unit. Not hard to change out.
thanks, Is there a site where I can obtain a diagram that shows what is what in these heat-pump units?
We got the house new but no documents were left behind for this unit.
Appreciate any help on this.
The install manual for the air handler will probably show you placement.

A baccalaureate degree from the CSU has a dual purpose: to provide a broad education, and to prepare you for specific professional and occupational goals. CSU stresses the importance of the arts and sciences as the foundation of the baccalaureate degree. For this reason, the CSU requires all students, regardless of major, to complete a program of general education as part of the baccalaureate.
The general education program consists of lower division and upper division coursework.
California Community College catalogs identify which courses are acceptable to meet CSU lower division general education requirements. While completion of all of the general education requirements is not required for admission, it is important to complete as many of the lower division general education requirements as possible prior to transfer.
Some students have majors that require extensive lower division requirements prior to transfer. See the Lower Division Pre-major section for more information. If you enroll at a CSU campus with 60 or more transferable semester units but have completed few general education units, completion of your baccalaureate program may take longer than expected. Good planning is essential!
The CSU provides California Community College transfers with two systemwide options for fulfilling CSU lower division general education requirements: GE-Breadth and IGETC. You should review the two programs and discuss with your college counselor which program is best for you.

Following an Oscar-winning role as Bad Blake in 2009's Crazy Heart, actor Jeff Bridges is signing with Blue Note to release his full-length debut. Bridges teams up with Crazy Heart songwriter T-Bone Burnett on the project, which will be released this summer.
Bridges has stated that the upcoming album is an extension of his past collaborations with Burnett, having met him 30 years ago on the set of Heaven's Gate and working with him in other films such as The Big Lebowski on which Burnett selected songs for the film. The release will feature Bridges' own compositions among works of others, and a number of guest vocalists including Rosanne Cash, Sam Phillips and Benji Hughes.
Burnett is no stranger to the music world collaborating with the likes of Alison Krauss, Robert Plant, Leon Russell and the Grammy-winning soundtrack to Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?. Though known primarily for his award-winning acting, Bridges is an avid music lover and guitar player whose skills finally came to light in Crazy Heart.
Bridges plays his first shows with an assembled band on September 1 and 2 at the Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls, ON.

Although the MACROTONES aren't niche snobs who get aggravated with the "world music" label often thrust upon them, vague pigeonholes hardly do justice to this Charlestown 10-piece, which romances any number of micro-scenes on a regular basis. Originally formed three years ago as an Afro-funk collective built to break authentic grooves à la Antibalas, they've evolved into a hybrid fit for freaking fans of jazz, boom-bap, roots reggae, and acid-worthy jam bands.
Boston rock trio STATIC OF THE GODS have built a reputation on electronic guitar pop that bakes warmly in a haze of shoegaze and post-rock. If their sound were a color, it'd be a bright-but-dense green — a vivid dream-pop forest of tall, lush melodies and weightless sonic oxygen. The first 100 or so seconds of "Hauntings," off the upcoming Midnight Fires EP, sways through those trees with an early-'90s Seattle breeze before heartbreak gives way to a gentle avalanche of ache and subtle power pop.
After their wild ride through last month's Rock And Roll Rumble at T.T. The Bear's, we're familiar with the underdog tale of OLDJACK and how Dan Nicklin's crew overwhelmed the festivities with an assault of awesome, wild-carding their way into the final round. So what comes next for these blue-eyed soul rockers? OldJack are back May 14 at the cozy Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, helping friends The Rationales celebrate the release of new album The Distance In Between
Not everybody had the dexterity required to crawl out of the 3516 basement unscathed. But not only did HAVE NOTS survive their first show on Halloween 2006 at the fabled jubilant purgatory of punk in Jamaica Plain (where an apparently nice, mellow Christian family moved in after the landlord rebuilt the joint), they've since mastered the craft of state-smashin' ska punk.
Upon first hearing KAL MARKS, it's easy to think he's some train-hopping troubadour from a far-away, land-locked region of the country. But the layered-and-looped strains of rickety plugged-in folk and blues on his original bedroom recordings were actually the creation of a twentysomething Allston dude who frequently plays local DIY spaces.
There's a hypnotic, almost dream-like quality to the sounds coming out of VARY LUMAR's collective dome: equal bits alt-rock and electronics, all intertwined in creating an emotive whirlwind of vibes that feel like edgy, psychedelic improvisations. Here on "Hysteriatype," the standout track from new album The Jig Is Up, the Lumar four slow their moody roll just a touch, soundtracking the delicate descent of a Percocet-fed melody tripping down a progressive-rock rabbit hole.
Have you ever danced with El Diablo on the corner of an eight ball? Driven through a bean field wearing nothing but a boombox made of magic? If not, then the new four-track Latin-dicked BSTRD Boots 12-inch from Flavorheard subsidiary the WHISKEY BARONS is your chance to surf South American mountaintops in a flamingo-pink Delorean.
Douchebag. Love it or hate it — there is no better word to describe some people. Douchebags come in unlimited varieties — political, sports, work, and more. But the one that truly stands out these days is the social-media douchebag. It's the guy who comes up and asks, "Are you following me?" Now, whenever you deal with one of those people, there's a new theme song, courtesy of BROWNBOOT'S "I Can't Wait (To Get Away).
Over the past decade, the Beatings' ELDRIDGE RODRIGUEZ has been one of the more prolific and distinguished voices in Boston rock, releasing 10 studio albums (six with band, four solo) that range from deconstructionist pop to noisy post-punk. On his latest effort, You Are Released (Midriff Records), Rodriguez further channels his inner Scott Walker for an experimental romp through themes of isolation, nature, and mortality, enlisting Wheat and Sarah Borges to fill out the record's myriad sounds, moods, and vibes.
The STERNS parted ways a few years ago, but their power-pop traces are found all over town: guitarist Alex Stern plays in New Collisions, guitarist Emeen Zarookian took center stage with Spirit Kid, and true man-about-town Andy Sadoway drums in Girlfriends. Now, the Sterns have returned (minus one busy Spirit Kid) with their first new batch of songs in three years.
There's already a bunch of songs written about
Alzheimer's disease, but they've all been generally forgettable. Perhaps the
catchiest ditty of dementia is now the FATAL FLAW's new single, "Narrow Hours," which
singer/guitarist Joel Reader penned about the residents of a local
assisted-living community for Alzheimer's patients, and especially a healthy
elderly man who visits his sick wife each day despite her increasing memory
When HERRA TERRA were nominated for a Boston Music Award last year, they were cast in the Metal/Hardcore category. But the Worcester quartet carry more of a mind for the dance floor than the mosh pit. Quiet Geist — their 2010 release on Athens, Georgia, label the Mylene Sheath, home to Boston acts Caspian, Eksi Ekso, and Junius — was a blitzkrieg of modern beats and glossy, ultra-produced electronic rock wizardry.
"What we need is more guitars," tweeted Mike Rodriguez of As Built PR on February 13. A week later, the Boston-based marketing and promotions company unveiled SOFT PYRAMIDS' debut EP, a detached-cool rock and roll afterparty racket that recalls a late-'70s Lower East Side punk attitude with nary and electronic device in sight (or sound).
If this is truly the year Boston's early-'90s indie scene strikes back, it wouldn't be complete without a new Damon & Naomi track to get lost in while commuting through the city. Joining Sebadoh's reissue parade and Buffalo Tom's new album (both with Paradise gigs, March 24 and April 8, respectively) former Galaxie 500 duo DAMON & NAOMI return with their first new material since 2007's exercise in beautiful misery, Within These Walls.

The new watercolor trend is so pretty, and I wanted to give it a try since the weather is becoming so beautiful in my region right now. The basic technique is to paint the nails a base color, and then with several colors one after the other you dot a small amount on the nail and sort of blot it out with a larger brush with a little acetone in it. The beauty of this technique is that the less "perfect" it is, the better, so the expertise level on this would probably be at "Novice." I think there are videos on how to do this on YouTube, so search for "Watercolor Nails" and you should find something. The only trick is to use *just* the right amount of acetone to dab the paint around, and not to dab too much or it will get muddy. Paint a few nails white and give it a little practice to see what you come up with. I think it's really pretty, and with just a couple colors blotted on, it would also make a pretty background for other art on top, or even some metal studs.

Re: Gummistone Park
Yay, in the fog!
Re: Old Faithful
As one of the most well known national park landmarks, one major fact about Old Faithful is largely unknown to the general public. The name itself actually belongs to the whale that lingers under the ground in a mass of water. There is but one pocket of air this whale is able to release it's blow. So if you get a chance, drop down some plankton to keep that whale healthy so he can stay regular for years to come.
Re: DEATH NATIONAL PARK
I'd like to give you a vote, but the sign just seems off to me... Maybe not even the sign as much as the type. It just doesn't seem to fit in well with the design. Maybe some distressing or giving it a more "carved" look would suit it better... Idk, just my thoughts.

That was my original thought as well, it seems to be outside the printable area. As for the design itself, it's pretty much great.
jabberjaws13 wrote:well i like the lungs, as do a lot of people here. go pick on someone else.
For serious, take a deep breath and calm down a little bit. I know you feel it's sinful to question or criticize the all knowing ever designing ramy, but two things:
1. The lung effect puts this is danger of rejection, which for any artist but ramy would be a near certainty given the substantial similarity to the shirts already posted.
2. As many females have already stated, this is just not a shirt that pairs well with boobies especially for our lovely full figured ladies.
A slight shift away from the lung effect alleviates both concerns. I'm not sure why you'd be against a ramy shirt getting wider appeal?

thanks jabb for the clarification they are supposed to be foxes and when i'd finished i thought they did look a bit like wolves too.

I didn't see your old entry post-rejection and so I didn't see the specific rejection reason. Was it bounced for being a game reference, a reference to the book, or a reference to the movie that used specific images from the movie?

It is pretty similar to that other one the other folks are talking about... still, I like this design- it's very well done. [ducks]

so to be honest, Jazmyne979 didnt get rejected with the same visuals, so i figured it must be the text. so i changed mine. not just trying to be redundant.
Re: The Last Park
I don't know, JewelWing, 1 tree doesn't say "National Park" for me. It says "City Park." For someone who is questioning other artists "on-topicness" in their entry threads, this seems to be riding the same line.
GMV! This has to be one of my favorite designs I've seen on Woot!
This reminds me of an entry I saw quite a while ago where a similar-looking woman was riding a missile? Was that you that drew that Kasey?

Re: Les Mielles
Since I live in a country with no national parks, here are Les Mielles - proposed for our first national park. Currently a Site of Special Interest, the coastal dune system with its marram grass (Ammophila arenaria} covering will become part of our first national park if government proposals are approved by the legislature. The style of the shirt would be, I intend, suitable for wear by the surfers who frequent the coast hereabouts and for the picnickers and barbecuers amid the dunes.
Until the 1970s the environment suffered, with rubbish dumps and cars driving over the dunes. Environmental action has cleaned up the dunes and banned the vehicles to stop erosion and restore the natural growth.
This is a place I really love - I used to play in the blow-outs when little - so I'm giving a teensy bit of love back in this shirt design.
Re: Please Dispose Of Thoughtfully.
i really liked how you put such emphasis on the bottle. really stands out and gets the point across. but i'm worried that since the other lines are so faint, that maybe after a few washes, people will be right at my chest (i'm male, not a huge problem) squinting to see them.
Like the scribbly style and the cute concept.
Re: polar preserve
i think woot would've been more justified in saying "off topic" because it does not really present a "national park". i'd resub with something more along those lines, but i like the message (polar bears losing ice to live on . . . and the oil (that is a story in itself)).
Naughty but nice! In fact, it's getting me quite excited...
This will print horribly. All that will be seen is the orange.

ahahaha, i like it. funny, and i like the lettering.
Re: New Beginning
i really like the idea here, but the little tiny sprout is a bit tough to see. a little bigger = better. just so people instantaneously get the message.
Ceci n'est pas un parc national.
National Park theme present: no
Creepy: yes.
Re: ATLien National Park
Might just be me and my penchant for squiggles... but I'd have liked this even more with more of that groovy Art Nouveau smoke.

Collab with tabak. Still unsure of colors. May resub a bit later.
Aren't you afraid you are going to split your votes and have both miss if you have 2 shirts so similar?

Customer Reviews (4)
- Works as AdvertisedReview by Mark
I used this on a 15-day, 8000 mile cross country trip on my K1600. I went through a few heavy rain storms, wearing my Combat Touring Boots. Although the boots were nicely water proof, my feet did sweat a lot during my 12 hour rides. In go the boot dogs every night, and the boots came out dry with no smell each morning when I was ready to suit up again.
My only 2 criticisms are: the strap could be long to accommodate tall boots such as these (or consider a hook and loop modification so that one has the option of separating the boot dogs. As it is, the strap did not allow for the dogs to reach down into the toe of the boots. 2. Make the actual dogs themselves longer, say by about 2-3 more inches. Nth at will help with my Herman Munster-sized needs.
Otherwise, I will keep using these and strongly recommend them. (Posted on 6/7/16)
- dry bootsReview by Charles
- Very easy to use and works Great no power needed. You pay for this once you do not have to pay for electricity to use it. This also works in your shoes. I will be carrying this on my bike when doing weekend or longer rides. It is so nice to have dry riding boots. (Posted on 3/17/14)
- Aerostitch Boot DogReview by 1969lhs
- Another worthwhile purchase from Aerostitch. No more funky, sweaty boots. It works perfect. I even use the boot dog in my sweaty gym sneakers. It dries them out overnight and no more stinky sneaks. A well spent twelve dollars. (Posted on 8/2/13)
- Not just for riding bootsReview by Hotjockus
- Not only are these great for your riding boots but, also for general use. My teenage step-son has had issues with POWERFUL shoe ordor! I purchased another pair of these for him and issue solved! Even his mother noted how good his shoes smelled after the dogs spent the night in his shoes. Thanks! (Posted on 7/13/12)

Dutch Jewish author Berthe Meijer, who grew up in Anne Frank's neighborhood and was imprisoned in Bergen-Belsen at the same time, has died.
Meijer died Tuesday of cancer, The Associated Press reported.
Her 2010 book "Life After Anne Frank" compared her life after the Holocaust to what Frank's might have been if she had survived.
Meijer was a culinary journalist who published columns in the Dutch newspaper NRC Handelsblad.

While the rest of Broadwood slept soundly in the summer of 1918 knowing war was over and their homes were safe, William Henry Nash chose to build houses rather than sleep.
The tale of Bill Nash and many more soldiers are being remembered today as Northland celebrates Anzac Day and remembers all those who served to protect their country.
Mr Nash's granddaughter Marian Palmer told the Northern Advocate that she never met the grandfather who built the home she lived in with his bare hands but she has heard so many stories, she feels a close bond to him.
"They used to say Bill Nash was the man who worked during the day and built houses at night," Mrs Palmer said, perhaps to stave off the memories of the horrific things he witnessed during his time in France during World War I.
Bill Nash left his home in Broadwood at the age of 21. His daughter Frances Brownlee said although her father was proud to volunteer to serve his king and his country "one war was enough for any man. They had no idea what they were getting in to".
He returned home lucky to have his life after surviving a mustard gas attack in France, which left him with damaged lungs, and contributed to his premature death at the age of 49.
Mr Nash returned home four years older and with the memories of the horrific conditions of war, and married Ellen and had seven children.
Mrs Brownlee said it was a tough life for their family, with her father busy with his successful blacksmith in Broadwood village and a farm with cows to milk.
He was a real fix-it man, and would repair vehicles and machinery in his spare time, as well as building and making alterations to homes.
His death in 1942 meant his wife was left to raise the children, his eldest son Bill was old enough to tend to the farm while their mother looked after the children.
Mrs Palmer heard about her grandfather a lot from her mother Kath, who was Mr Nash's second eldest daughter, and had a close relationship with him.
"My mother idolised her dad, he was a very caring father," she said.
Mrs Palmer's own father served in World War II and she said Anzac Day was a special day in her home.

What the A to Z of winter wellness is all about
When the chill factor drops our focus on good health often drifts. Not only are we more susceptible to nasty winter lurgies, but the temptation to hibernate can mean less moving and not as much focus on the right food for optimal health. In a bid to stay focused (or re-focus) this winter, we've called on the smarts of holistic health expert, Dr Libby Weaver to help compile our interactive A to Z of Winter Wellness. Each weekday we will reveal the next letter and what it stands for in our health file, plus informative graphics and recipe suggestions to help boost your health. Check in to Life & Style every afternoon for your winter wellness inspiration.

R | Rebounding by Dr Libby Weaver
Rebounding may take you back to your 80s aerobics days, but it is actually a wonderful form of movement to do to help your lymphatic system. Our lymphatic system is responsible for taking waste away from our cells, and just like the rest of our body it needs to be exercised too.
Your body relies on movement to pump the lymphatic fluid around your body as it has no pump of its own. The up and down movement when you bounce helps to move fluid along the one way lymphatic vessels in the body back to the heart where it can become part of the blood and then be detoxified. Two minutes a few times a day is enough to get your lymphatic system moving, which helps improve your immunity, detoxification, vitality, and energy. And with great energy, everything in life is easier.

The chances of a meaningful deal emerging from the Copenhagen climate negotiations receded overnight as reports emerged that the Chinese were now setting their sights on a purely political agreement rather than a detailed text.
British officials acknowledged the mood continued to darken with one saying "the process is not in great shape" and expectations of a draft text being produced this morning failed to materialise, something Danish sources blamed on the Chinese position.
Gordon Brown also appeared to downgrade even his aspirations for a follow-up conference, which many had been focusing on for months as it became apparent as early as October that Copenhagen was only going to produce a political document rather than legal document.
The German chancellor, Angela Merkel, also struck a downbeat note in a speech she made to parliament before travelling to Copenhagen. According to Reuters, she said that news of the negotiations had not been good and she warned a failure to reach an agreement would be damaging. "The news that we've been receiving is not good," she said. "I must say very honestly, that the United States offer to cut [CO2 emissions] by 4% compared to 1990 levels is not ambitious."
In his speech at Copenhagen, Brown said nations should attempt to drive through legislation in six months to one year, a slight delay on his previous ambition of six months. He urged countries to: "Commit to turn this agreement into a legally binding instrument within six months to a year as we build on the Kyoto protocol."
Aides said Brown's three-minute speech to the conference floor was going to be important in focusing minds with a section calling on countries such as the US to move to "the highest possible level of ambition for 2020" and also assuring developing countries that long funds provided by developed countries to smooth transition to a low carbon future would not necessarily come from existing aid budgets, as is the case in the short term. In his speech, he said: "We must commit to additionality in our support so that we do not force a choice between meeting the needs of the planet and meeting the millennium development goals."
With its mention of "additionality", the speech appears to be the first declaration of more public funds being directed towards climate change, but an aide was unable to answer how Brown would financially meet the pledge while government is cutting spending to reduce the budget deficit.
His speech also contained words of assurance for the Chinese delegation concerned that any promise they make to curb carbon emissions will require intrusive monitoring by other countries around the world. He called for "transparency in accounting for both developed and developing countries, including international discussion and without diminishing national sovereignty".
Brown said that the international negotiations should achieve:
• A long-term goal of a global temperature increase by 2050 of "no more than 2C".
• All developed countries moving to their "highest possible level of [emission cut] ambition for 2020".
• Developing countries committing to "nationally appropriate mitigation actions at their highest level of ambition" achieving a significant reduction from "business as usual".
• Developed countries committing to immediate finance for developing countries starting from Jan 2010, rising to $10bn (£6.2bn) annually by 2010.
• Long-term finance by 2020 the goal of $100bn a year "to come from private and public sources".
• Committing additional funds after 2012 to ensure funds to developing countries do not simply come from redirected aid budgets.
• Transparency between countries "without diminishing national sovereignty".
• A commitment to turn this agreement into a legally binding instrument within six months to a year, as "we build on the Kyoto protocol".

May 3-10 marks TD Canadian Children's Literature Week, a week-long celebration of literature for kids of all ages from coast-to-coast. CBC Books knows the importance of developing a love for reading from a early age, which is why we put together this all-time no-fail list of our 10 favourite Canadian picture books -- titles every household in the great white north should have!
Are we missing your favourite? If so, let us know in the comments below.
Alligator Pie by Dennis Lee
"Alligator pie, alligator pie, If I don't get some I think I'm gonna die."
Well, we'd die if this charming poem turned children's book wasn't on every must-read list. First published in 1974, Alligator Pie has endured 40 years of children chanting about their love for all things alligator. Frank Newfeld illustrated the timeless book, which won the Canadian Library Association's Book of the Year award in 1975.
The Paper Bag Princess by Robert Munsch
A princess's castle and clothes are burned to a crisp and a dragon has kidnapped her prince! Whatever shall she do? Well, if you're Princess Elizabeth, you put on a paper bag and get your prince back. And when it turns out he's a superficial "bum," Princess Elizabeth moves on. It's a fantastical tale with a powerful message for young girls and boys everywhere! Illustrated by Michael Martchenko, Robert Munsch's tale was first published in 1980, but is always worth a read.
Boy Soup by Loris Lesynski
Boy soup: it's a guaranteed cold cure for giants. But when a girl gets in the mix -- watch out. That's the premise for Lois Lesyniski's 1996 children's story, which was recently re-issued with illustrations by Michael Martchenko and was chosen for the TD Grade One Giveaway in 2013.
Scaredy Squirrel by Melanie Watt
No matter what your child is scared of, it's a guarantee Scaredy Squirrel is scared of more. His fears include "tarantulas, poison ivy, green Martians, germs, killer bees, and sharks." There's now a whole series of Scaredy Squirrel books as well as a TV show, but for the classic Scaredy experience, it's best to go with the 2006 original storybook.
Jillian Jiggs by Phoebe Gillman
Every kid can connect with "Jillian, Jillian Jillian Jiggs!" a young girl whose room looks like it "has been lived in by pigs." Her reliability combined with her super-fun to shout name have made Jillian Jiggs (and the several sequels) go-to reads for anyone who was, has, or is a high-energy kid.
Mabel Murple by Sheree Fitch
What is it about girls with alliterative names that make for excellent children's books? Mabel Murple is right up there with Jillian Jiggs. Her purple planet of purple people is a tongue-twisting ride full of fun. Maple Murple was originally published in 1995. The latest edition was illustrated by Sydney Smith.
Perfect Snow by Barbara Reid
Barbara Reid's Plasticine art works are Canadian classics and no library is complete without at least one of her books. If it has to be just one, we suggest the most Canadian of her collections: Perfect Snow, about the fun kids can have after a perfect snowfall. Perfect Snow won the Amelia Francis Howard Gibbon Award for Illustration when it originally came out in 2010.
Love You Forever by Robert Munsch
Robert Munsch is the only author with two books on this list, but can you blame us? His story of an enduring love between mother and son is iconic -- so iconic you named it the most iconic Canadian cover last year. Sheila McGraw was the illustrator behind this work. "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my baby you'll be." Sounds about right to us.
Red is Best by Kathy Stinson
When kids have a favourite colour, it is their favourite colour. Even if it's not red, everyone who has ever loved a colour so much they want to wear it head to toe always will relate to Kelly, who prefers her red mittens, red boots and red pajamas over any alternatives her parents have to offer. Robin Baird Lewis illustrated the latest edition, and the book has been a must-read for families since 1982.
Wishes by Jean Little
Jean Little is a Canadian icon. She's won dozens of awards and is a member of the Order of Canada. This means no Canadian children's book list can be complete without at least one of her titles on it. We went with 2012's Wishes because of the whimsical drawings by Genevieve Cote and how Little celebrates creativity and imagination, one rhyme at a time.

Video: Keep the Pressure on President Obama and Congress- Say No to Keystone XL
Cross-posted from the National Wildlife Federation's Wildlife Promise Blog.
Clean, renewable energy will not only bring more jobs to Michigan and the rest of the country, but will not destroy our natural environment like oil spills and threaten wildlife populations, including endangered whooping crane habitat and the risks to thousands of wolves that may be poisoned from expansion of Canadian tar sands operations.
Young people in Michigan have seen first hand the devastation that a tar sands oil spill has on the health of a community. The community of Kalamazoo continues to struggle over a year and half later.

This article was written for Muslimah Media Watch by Anny Gaul.Yesterday, The New York Times ran an article about what Iraqi women are wearing these days.

But on a recent afternoon, Hameed Ibrahim ushered his family toward a different kind of fashion display." The piece goes on to des … [Read more...]
Burqa Woman Blunder? Saad Haroon's Parody
Parts of the blogosphere appear to be in a tizzy over a recent parody of Roy Orbison's classic "Oh, Pretty Woman."

I rap because I cant sing. But I love music, so it had to be rap. Soon, the burkha and the rap formed an identity of itself, and people started recognizing me … [Read more...]


text: The Ohio Gun Deer season has opened, and many of us who are blessed to have our own hunting property will most likely be staying there this week. I have been reviewing regulations and checking with ODNR I Found a few Regs that i thought might be helpful, some I was aware of, and others I was not. Minimum acreage : There is NO minimum acreage requirement in Ohio, In the mid 90's an Ohio man who owned less than 1 acre surrounded by farm fields,challenged Ohio's 10.5 acre minimum for deer hunting. The Ohio Supreme Court ruled that as long as the man owned the land, and paid his taxes, the State had no right to restrict his use of said land, and the minimum was abolished. ******CHECK WITH YOUR LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT, COMMUNITIES CAN PLACE THEIR OWN RESTRICTIONS ON HUNTING************************************** Minimum distance from structures or property lines :: Marianne Hartman from the Ohio Department of Natural Resources, says there is no Division of Wildlife regulation that mandates hunting outside of a set distance from private residences or buildings, or a distance from property boundaries. The Ohio Revised Code (ORC) has several statues that discuss shooting a firearm near certain premises. For example, Section 2923.16.1 ORC prohibits discharging a firearm at or into an occupied home, or a school safety zone, or within one thousand feet of any school building or school premises boundaries. Section 2923.16.2 ORC prohibits discharging a firearm upon, over, or within one hundred yards of a cemetery, or discharging a firearm on land adjacent to any church, schoolhouse, or other inhabited dwelling of someone else. These two sections mentioned do not specifically state anything about hunting and are not within the jurisdiction and authority of the Division of Wildlife. Some communities or municipalities have their own specific regulations that may prohibit hunting or shooting firearms or bows near private residences, or how far you can hunt from a property line. These are enforced by local police departments. In most rural areas such as townships no such regulations exist and as long as other regulations are followed, a person could hunt in close proximity to a residence if they choose. Tagging : You may tag your deer with your self made private property tag even if your deer dies on your neighbors land ( you must obtain their permission first ) HOWEVER , Should you need to shoot a wounded deer off of your property, then you must use a state issued tag ( I did not know this !) Pen or pencil : You must have a pen or pencil in your possession (for tagging ) while deer hunting in Ohio. This was new to me, and I was surprised to hear of numerous Ohio Deer hunters having been cited for this. I hope this informs some of you, this is by no means a complete list of regulations, and all hunters should study their local regulations. I founds these few to be helpful so i thought i would pass them on. Hunt Smart, Hunt legal, and Hunt Safe !!!1

From the report 'em as we get 'em file: Universal Pictures has announced release dates for three Blumhouse Productions horror flicks, continuing the fruitful relationship between Uni and the indie horror house through 2016. Blumhouse's first-look deal with the studio started with microbudgeted high-yield $89M hit The Purge. Mark your calendars as the partners stake their claim with dates for unspecified projects Untitled Blumhouse Horror 1 on September 25, 2015, Untitled Blumhouse Horror 2 on January 8, 2016, and Untitled Blumhouse Horror 3 on October 21, 2016.
4 Comments
Yet they refused to release the Blumhouse movie, Stretch, at the last minute. Well, that is a Comcast company for ya !
I'll make sure and mark my calendar!
whew…..thanks for the info!!!
Loving the productions that Blumhouse are leading the field with a unique and fresh approach to the horror genre, aimed at producing high concept films, or at the very least, just downright terrifying productions, Purge and Sinister being two examples.
Looking forward to seeing more!
So what, they're 2 for…20? Smart to slate "Untitled" films, so they can avoid another Stretch debacle.

We ordered from HobbyTron.com 10 bags of name-brand flourescent yellow Air Soft BBs made by UKarms (5000 BBs per bag; .12g 6mm; for Airsoft Gun) and instead received no-brand, dimpled, warped and crooked red "bullets" (1000 pieces per bag; distributed by FINE DRAGON INT'L LTD.HK) that are so inferior they barely resemble Air Soft BBs at all. HobbyTron.com purported to sell a brand-name quality item but deliberately shipped a different and clearly inferior product.
They expect us to pay return shipping and a 20% re-stocking fee even though they sent us junk we did not order. We have asked HobbyTron.com for a Fedex number for free return shipping (shipping paid for by Hobbytron.com); they responded that they had the right to substitute product. The substitute product is not of comparable quality and we would like to send it back. We have filed an FTC Complaint (FTC.gov; number 27300794). a BBB Complaint, and complaints with the State Attorney General in California.

Stalking Vol 2 The Bridge of Reason HTML version
seeing occurs outside of thought, so it includes understanding without the need for la nguage and
without necessarily directing, or wanting to know what you saw."
"What could I know without trying to know anything?"
"K nowledge is available everywhere, to everyone, all of the time, if they have the energy to
access and assess it." She peered into me. "Everything is media, because everything is an
interpretation, and because everything is conscious everything communicates. Who or what is
listening is another issue." Briefly gathering her thoughts, she said, "As a teacher, you are media
to me: everything you say and do is a metaphor about you and your perspectives. I am now
teaching you how to locate the metaphors you create, specifically the behavioral aberrations that
infect you. O f necessity, these essences lie outside of the reasoning you use to maintain the
continuity of your existence, which is why they are so difficult for the average person to merely
locate, let alone change. It follows that you cannot act like an average person to hunt them."
"Which I was at the store, then I wasn't to ha ve realized where I was... did I cross the bridge
of concern again?"
"Excellent, you're seeing how things work. Important to note that achieving this kind of
clarity doesn't do a thing to change your poor behaviors: there's nothing stopping you from
becoming an idiot with power other than heart and discipline, one of which you've lost and the
other you've never had. We are on the hunt for both, and we will find them within the three cores
of knowledge required to become…" she hesitated, and said instead, "As your ability to know
through any means grows you must guard against your penchant for piety, and become smitten
with your presumed power and treat people like servants. Now, what word did I ask you to
"This is how your ability to know becomes incorporated into ever larger assumptions: There
was a young boy who knocked things off shelves," she said, "too often touched hot stoves with
his elbow while making peanut butter and jam sandwiches, and skinned his knees and knuckles
so regularly that his mother put Band-Aids on her shopping list every week. As he grew so too
did the scars, which evolved into mini awards for the battles of life he had fought. In time, his
parents bought him a new winter coat, not a jacket design, but the kind that went down almost to
his knees. He hated the fashion, but it was a warm coat and getting snow down the back of his
pants while sliding down hills on the way to school was no fun in class. O n balance, the only real
problem he had with the coat was zipping it up.
"Half the time," she explained mysteriously, as if to this child, "he couldn't get it to close
beyond getting the tongue and the teeth in line, and pulling up about a quarter of an inch before it
became stuck. He got used to tugging and sometimes s ucceeding, so he eventually wore away a
section of stitching and bent some teeth; his parents had to replace the zipper. He secretly hoped
this might correct the problem, or get rid of the coat, so he didn't have to decide what to wear,
but it did neither. He still wore his old jacket, and endured the occasional wet butt that a less
frustrating exit from the house offered."
She paused to have me voice that I knew she was speaking about me. I nodded for her to
"Finally, the day came when fatigue from arguing with his mother about playing with his
friends versus doing homework overcame his exasperation; looking down, while trying to think
of a way to avoid homework, he held the tongue of the zipper in place and pulled slowly. For the
first time, he noticed that on the first tug he habitually turned the bottom of the zipper slightly
upwards. This crimped the teeth just ahead of the joiner causing the tug of war with the zipper.
