@mwgillenwaterLocale: Seattle area
[Moving this message to where it belongs from another forum]
I hate having to get a permit to hike (prefer permit-free wilderness areas over NPs). But in the spirit of getting to know our new PNW home, I went in for the Rainer NP Wonderland Trail lottery.
I got lucky and my permit application was just approved.
It is for the full 93 mile circuit in 6 days (5 nights).
Dates 14 Sept – 19 Sept.
I put in for 4 people on behalf of myself and some local outdoor buddies. But they can be flaky (with some reason…jobs, kids, etc.) and can't commit. One is a heavy hauler that is afraid of the mileage, but I am working on him. The point is, it is highly likely I'll have a couple of spots open.
Post here or PM me if interested in joining.
@jcar3305Locale: East of Cascades
Have you filled those slots yet? I can best be reached at firstname.lastname@example.com.
@nedjursekgmail-comLocale: Pacific Northwest
I live in Seattle and I am interested. I was looking at trying to gamble and scoring one of the reserved walk up permits but would much rather have fixed dates. I am self-employed, so I can save the date in advance. Let me know. Thanks!

I don't know, it looks like propolis might be helping to hold your wallet together...
Do you use the hive tool to pry it open? Which isn't a bad idea.
That's why I wear cargo pants in the beeyard. The hive tool is always in the pocket on the right leg.
Amazing how many hive tools I haven't lost since I started doing that
I use one of those magnetic things that fasten around your wrist to hold metal objects when you are working, I just stick one end over my belt inside my pants and let the magnetic end dangle down, it holds a hive tool really secure, I never even have to look just stick the tool down there until I hear it click to the magnets. A simple little gadget that saves me from looking for the hive tool when I'm in a hurry to do something else.

I picked up one of the small tool pouches that attach to your belt from the big box store. I was tired of all my work pants having the back right pocket at least partially propolised (if that's a work) shut. It's actually handy for keeping the few things I carry when going through the hives together and attached to my hip.

Overalls, pockets everywhere.
Your wallet may attract a swarm if you leave it outside
Just find a big magnet and drop it in a pocket. Then let the tool stick to it.

Chalet Cervin has been totally refurbished to bring it up to the high standards expected of a current day ski chalet - the quality of the furnishings is excellent, with lovely attention to detail and a traditional Savoyard feel throughout. The spacious, open plan lounge and dining area has comfortable seating and a traditional log fire creating a warm and welcoming space to relax and unwind. The French windows lend light to the living area and access to the balcony where guests can enjoy the mountain air and alpine views. Chalet Cervin has six bedrooms all with full en-suite facilities, and again, lovely attention to detail creating a traditional chalet feel; rooms 5 and 6 have great character with large velux windows and sloping ceilings but this does create some height restrictions. The chalet has electric boot warmers for your comfort, hairdryers, a DVD player and free Wi-Fi for your convenience and enjoyment.

|Ski-in Ski-out

|Mini bus
|Hot Tub

In the heart of the old village of Mussillon the chalet is about 700m from the Méribel village centre and 250m from Dick's T-Bar. There is a courtesy minibus service in the morning (08.30h to 10.00h) to take guests to ski school or the ski lifts. Priority will be given to guests going to ski school; there is also a free public bus service from the chalets to the slopes. The minibus will also bring you back to the chalet in the afternoon: it will run for the final hour before the main lifts close.
Rooms 3, 5 and 6 can take a cot.
Breakfast every day will consist of a selection of cereals, porridge or muesli with yogurts, fresh French bread with butter and preserves.
Afternoon Tea
For afternoon tea (every day including the chalet hosts day off), the most informal meal of the day, help yourself to fresh bread, butter and jams, biscuits and homemade cake or scones.
Canapes & Aperitifs
On arrival in the chalet, handmade pre-dinner canapes and aperitifs will be served to you in the lounge while your experienced chalet host welcomes you to the chalet and introduces you to the resort.
Chalet Hosts cook a 3-course evening meal. On the final evening of your holiday, your chalet host will produce a 4-course evening meal including a local Cheese board and port.
You will be served free and unlimited good quality Red and White wines during the course of dinner. After dinner fresh ground coffee or decaffeinated coffee as well as tea are served in the lounge.
The Cervin chalet hosts live out.

Osama bin Laden kept a handwritten journal that U.S. forces seized in last week's raid, according to an unidentified Associated Press source.
AP correspondent Kimberly Dozier reports that the journal was part of a huge cache of intelligence that included about 100 flash drives and five computers taken by U.S. Navy SEALs after they swept through the bin Laden compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.
The officials spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk publicly about what was found in bin Laden's hide-out.
In memoirs, Bin Laden's son Omar has described his father as recording his thoughts and plans when the family lived in Sudan and Afghanistan, the AP reports.
Update at 3:40 p.m. ET: The National Journal's Michael Hirsch, quoting a U.S. official, reports that the handwritten notes are believed to be the terror chieftain's thoughts about future operations and possible targets, along with "musings on al-Qaeda."
The official, described as a U.S. national security team reviewing the vast quantity of material from bin Laden's compound, cautions that while U.S. authorities have not yet confirmed it was bin Laden's diary, "the assumption is that it was."
The official says the journal, and other materials, indicate bin Laden was still very much involved in running al-Qaeda.

Another plank in the platform House Republican leaders announced heading into this legislative session died a quiet death this week.
The majority party's "Red Tape Reduction Commission" bill was left sitting in the House Appropriations Committee, deemed too expensive to justify in a budget that focused instead on increasing state employee pay, and particularly pay for state police.
This was one of several measures highlighted ahead of the session as a GOP effort to streamline government. It was supposed to serve as a clearinghouse for regulatory reform, easing the burdens on business.
The $700,000 a year this would have cost to employ five people in this...

[quote=stearns86;337140]If I had a wood deck, you are correct that would be pretty simple. If I were to do that though I'd have a big gap at the end of the deck that would not look good. Having the composite with the fascia makes this a bit trickier. Also, if you look at the picture I'd have alot of work to do that because I have all the other posts for the railing i bolted in and more or less I'd have to remove all the carriage bolts from all that which is a a huge pain.
I appreciate your comments and your help. Some people were making this tougher than it needed to be. The deck is built. Building codes and other crap aren't helping me with my question. Thanks again and let me know if you think that will be ok.
You are thinking I'm talking about adding on to the rim joist. No, what I'm talking about is 2-2x8's bolted to the post under the joist on the back side of those post. Less than 30 minute job w/an electric impact & some lags, or pre-drill holes & thru bolt. It's basically the same as your support post @ 10'.
Your way of adding more post will work, but in 26 years of building decks I've learned the easier way of doing things.

I understand what building codes are for and permits. I work in construction(sales). I sell in commercial construction and see this stuff daily. Locally there have been issues with decks failing. The #1 reason is because they aren't attached to homes correctly. My deck I can assure you is attached to my house correctly. I have 1/2"x10" lags holding a 2x8 directly to the floor joists of my house. I had so many lag bolts holding the ledger onto the house that we were having a hard time fitting the joist hangers on the ledger. As I have mentioned 20 times in this thread, I built the deck back exactly how it was built before. It lasted 20 years with cedar wood, nails, not a single lag bolt or carriage bolt and ancient builiding methods. So I am more than confident I don't have an issue here.
I made a mistake with the outer board, and I am trying to fix it. I'd like to add I finished my basement last year with no permit. Everything was done by union guys on the side. I used metal studs for framing, used a gas actuated gun to shoot the track down, etc, etc. The plumbing is done to code, electrical done to code, and so on. I guess my basement will fail also. I'd say 75%+ of the finished basements where I live are done with no permit or anything. I'd love to get a permit and such, but where I live the hoops you have to jump through are quite ridiculous.
Ok, so back on topic. I took some pictures for you guys that are actually trying to help me. I still don't see how I can do what you want Deckman. The pictures will give you an idea why I can't picture what you are saying.

That picture changed nothing as far as how I would go about fixing your problem. Bolt/lag screw another beam to the post below the joist on the back side of those post. Not sure why you can't picture what to do.

I think that what DECKMAN suggests is for you to build a girder in back of the front row of posts.
Kind of like the girder in the center of your deck,It'll be back far enough from the fascia and low enough that that no one will notice.

I wrote a scathing post, but then I thought about it, and came to terms with two things. First, I realized it's not going to help you with your mistakes if I sat there and picked apart your design. So I'll merely just list the mistakes I see, and suggest some fixes. Second thing I realized is that picking apart your work isn't going to help any future reader walk away with new knowledge.
So first, here are some general suggestions to all future readers:
1. Read the AWC's deck guide. Please. It will save you so much heartache and angst. And it's free. But note: it describes the minimum requirement, as if the the deck is built inside of a warehouse. It does not cover snow, wind, or seismic loads. Those issues are usually treated locally by each town or jurisdiction (many, many towns use the guide as a starting point, and add on blurbs and sketches to augment the design for local conditions).
2. The permit process is there to protect the property owner. Any BS about it being hard or difficult is just plain bunk. You will never convince me that it's hard. I deal with it on a daily basis. It's not hard. I hear that from people, and I think "that guy is hiding something deep and disturbing in his closet if he's using that as an excuse to not get a permit."
3. On top of the permit process helping you, it will prevent a smart buyer from calling you on it when you go to sell. They'll ask for concessions. And if you're going to wrap yourself in the blanket of "I never plan to sell," well that's ok. I guess your heirs will find out about it all when they go to sell.
Now for the technical issues and suggestions:
1. The method of attachment I see in the photos between the post and the beams is prohibited. The beams have to be seated, either through notching the post, or sitting the beams on top of the posts using correct fasteners. They need to be redone properly.
2. Honestly, my eyes could be playing tricks on me, but is that a single 2x10 beam running along the centerline of the deck (parallel to the house), not 2-2x10's? If it is, that needs to be addressed as well. That's a prohibited feature in my state. But you're in a pickle, because the beam you have was bolted to the posts. And if it really is two 2x10's, unfortunately it's still wrong because they're bolted to the side of the posts.
3. It could be the light and shadows in the photos, but I also don't see any blocking. That's probably the easiest fix.

You should stick to sales as construction does not seem to be your forte. I noticed several things about your deck framing that are not compliant from your pictures. Improperly sized posts. Girder and rim joist (bearing load) not resting on posts but rather through bolted (read on to see why this is a potential problem). Insufficient girders. Posts not resting on the center of the piers causing uneven weight distribution on footers. No hurricane ties. Bolts less than 2 inches from the edge of the post. I would bet improper nails on the joist to beam connection and that the cut ends of the posts where not treated with copper napathrene. I have to assume you installed neoprene flashing over the banboard and flashed the ledger accordingly. I also have to assume your bolting of the ledger is sufficient, staggered, and spaced appropriately as I can not verify any of this from the pictures posted. I also must assume you verified that your railings meet the 200# impact requirement.
More deck information for you: Due to the preservatives used in pressure treated lumber galvanized fasteners and hangers have a high likelihood of failure due to corrosion. Stainless steel is a better choice for applications involving preservative treated lumber. If galvanized are used zmax should be used and measures should be taken to protect the fasteners and hardware.
Building the deck exactly as it was before (except for the substitution of bolts versus nails in the ledger and posts) does not ensure it will last twenty years. The original deck lasting twenty years only means it was not placed in service in a manner that caused a failure. It does not mean the deck would not have failed if placed under duress in any number of settings. The cedar used also was not corrosive to fasteners, modern preservatives are. Framing is more complicated then you think and there are many more considerations that go into properly contructing a deck then I care to go into. The codes are a guideline to help you get the most basic considerations accomplished so as to minimize the risk of injury or death to you and the general public.
As to the basement, here is a true story for you shared to me by a Realtor I have done some work for: Her client finished the basement of their home without a building permit. Another Realtor showing the property to his clients checked with the county to see that all the proper inspections had been done on the finished basement. The county upon being notified the basement was finished when their records showed otherwise did the following; Had the HO file for building permit. Fined the HO for not having a permit. Required the HO to remove all the drywall so the basement could be inspected. The basement failed inspection for framing, plumbing, and electrical that the homeowner was sure he did to code. Somehow I doubt the building official really cared if it was union done, homeowner done, or done under a prevailing wage contract as that is all irrelevant with regards to the basement being done to the minimum safety standards.

I would like to see this deck be safer.
1. Add solid blocking between each joist, as per code over the beam to prevent lateral displacement (rotation).
2. Add the double 2x8 inside the ledger support as mentioned. The existing single 2x8 - if doug/fir, is rated to carry 1348# at 7.5' span. Your load of standard minimum 50# per sq.ft. with a 3.75' span, times 1/2 joist- 5' is 1875# You would sag, hence add the doubler. And your bolting so close to the ends would fail, rather than way safer with a 6x6 post being notched.You are relying on bolt strength alone to carry the load.
3. Your beam (2-2x8's) under the lapping joists= if spanning 7.5' x 50# x 10' joists = 3750# D./F. 2-2x8's (3x8) is rated for 2248# You are overloaded by 1502#. These should have been 2-2x10 for a 7' span or a 2x14 for an 8' span.
Here is the load sequence: 3x8---6x6---4x8---2x12---3x10---2x14---6x8 You can see where you are, 5-6 beam sizes shy. I would reduce the span with another post/pier under centers.
4. The shear hangers on the ledger require 6-10d nails (3"), to obtain full loads. As you have a single outside rim (ledger), I presume you used 1-1/2" nails there. You multiply the hanger load (1210#) by .77 because of the shorter nails wrongly used = 932#. Your load at rim is 10' Jst. x 50# x 1.34 (16"o.c.) = 670#
Sorry we couldn't help you sooner, than later. I hope you use the advice given to make your deck safer by building to the very minimum code.
Be safe, Gary

Well I came here with a simple question. Some of you have given me the simple answer and others have pretty much blasted me on here. I thought this was a DIY forum and not the other forum which is for professional contractors.
To the ones that have offered help. I appreciate it. The deck is built. I am looking for a simple fix. You have offered me the help I asked for. The most recent post by GBR is Washington is a good example.
The others have basically blasted me. I am a DIY. I have never built a deck before. Yes the flashing was redone. It wasn't even flashed at all before. The nails I used were from one of my customers. Its a customer that uses pressure treated lumber and at the peak of the residential hike where I live had 250 guys working for them. I asked my guy what nails I needed to build the deck and he handed me the nails guns, compressor and the nails they use for pressure treated lumber construction. Also the support beam through the center(underneath that runs parallel with the house is 2 2X8's. As far as the piers.....I attached a simpson bracket that is anchored with a 1/2"x4 1/2" wedge anchor. The old posts were attached to a piece of rebar sticking out of the pier that was doweled.
Like I said I am in sales. I am not a contractor. I have proven that. I also want to tell you that I am on commercial jobsites daily and sometimes residential jobsites. I deal with contractors issues daily. I read building plans daily. I deal with the contractors daily. I even deal with engineers from time to time. I got news for all of you. If you all think that everything built it done strictly to the plans, you are naive. The #1 issue I see is how a building is firestopped. The only new buildings in the area I live(St. Louis) that are properly firestopped are hospitals and thats about it. There are several municipalities that the fire marshals are very strict and for good measure. For those who don't know what firestop is, its the material between firewalls that prevents smoke from going through gaps and pentrations through fire walls. Contractors a high amount of time don't know how to install the stuff correctly. They also cut corners and use multiple products. I'd say 80% of the buildings I walk into aren't firestopped correctly. Don't forget that older building are even worse. The new codes have hit this on the head, but all the building that were built the old way aren't gutted and redone the right way because codes have changed.
The same goes for anchors(mechanical and epoxy) 90% of epoxy anchors I see installed are installed incorrectly. These epoxy anchors are usually used for bolting down exterior walls and also for doweling(which is reinforcement). What does that mean? Well an engineer approves a type of anchor for the job based on tested data. Well that data is tested on properly installed anchors. When an epoxy anchors isn't installed correctly, there is a 40% decrease of the holding value in that anchor. Scary isn't it? I could go on and on with this stuff.
My house is 40 years old. I'd bet most of how it was built isn't to current building codes. I guess my house is going to collapse. My upstairs is wired with aluminum wire and not copper(copper is in the recently finished basement). The deck was far from code complaint and built 20 years ago with no failure. I didn't plan on rebuilidng the whole deck. I planned on replacing the planks. When I noticed termite damage, rotting wood, and rotting posts I decided I needed to rebuild the whole thing. I had 30 people on the deck last October with these issues and it obviously didn't fail. Rarely will that happen again, and I am not to worried about me going out there with a few beers and my wife and worry about it collapsing.
As far as permits go....yeah its for safety. I want to add that my 40 year old house wasn't built to current building codes and is still standing. Obviously technology advances and codes become stricter as time goes along. Its for safety and reassurance. Its also to tax you on your property. The house already had a deck, so my house is assessed with the deck on it already. With the basement I talked to multiple realtors and every single one of the told me that finished basements are rarely built with permits and to now worry about it. I'd like to add that although I didn't get a permit(because it was a huge pain), I printed out the codes and abided by them as good as I could. I didn't do this with the deck. I
I don't ever plan on moving, but if I do I have no worries. I guess if I try selling it to an engineer then I will have someone busting my chops. Guess what though, I can sell my house to whomever I want. I do realize that building codes/permits have become a bit stricter in residential areas, especially in bigger cities. People have been finishing basement and buidling their own deck without permits for years. I am not saying its right, but I can't think of hearing of any issues. I have heard of deck failures locally. Every single one of them wasn't structurall failure. It was decks not properly attached to the houses. That is one area I paid strict detail to.
If I was as anal as most of you on here with what I see daily in my job.....I'd never step in a building with a roof again. I'd have to stay in a tent 24/7. I didn't do this intentionally. I seeked help from someone that has done this and the mistake I made was wanting to stick with using the piers I had. I trusted that advice and went with it. If I would have known about this site and more, I would have built the deck differently and went by the codes. Guess what guys, I have $7000 in the deck that is already built. I can't rip the thing apart and start over. With most of the advice I have been given, thats what I'd have to do. I honestly have no worries about the structure. My worries is that darn board sagging over time, and I know it will sag. The last deck did it so I know.

You obviously were not paying much attention to the advice given...re-read the advice given. I cannot find to many posts telling you to rip the whole deck down and start over.
I am not trying to be an ahole or anything, I am just basically venting a bit because I find it a little ironic and irritating that these people are trying to give you advice (whom I might add you asked for.....) and you basically complained about it and pretty much threw it back in their face.
People take pride in helping others in need.
If you dont want peoples help or ideas.....please dont ask for it. If you truly want or need help and advice please accept it and dont throw it back.
That all being said, I hope your deck turns out for you and good luck on your future projects.

This project went from replacing the planks, to ripping the whole deck apart and rebuilding it. To build a deck like what I built around here would cost $20,000 to $25,000. My in laws had one built for $10,000 last fall and its half my size. Most quotes they were getting were over $15,000. I don't have the money to do that, so thats why I got the help of some friends(I didn't build this myself) and went at it. I asked for a simple fix. People like yourself offered that advice. Then others offered other advice and basically told me was built all wrong.
Thanks again for your help. I apologize if I pissed you off. I apologize also with my "terminolgy". Its off and that has made it difficult for you guys to help me and even tougher for me to figure out what you are trying to help me with.
My "union carpernter buddy" that told me how to put this together is coming over and we are going to figure out a solution with suggestions such as yours. I don't disagree that just because he is a "union carpenter" that he is going to build everything to code. I do believe that a guy that has been buidling for quite some time would have the knowledge of how to build something fairly simple(for someone like him) as a deck.
I explained the issues I had concerns about. He offered to come over and help me fix it and make it right. He realizes there are some issues with the deck that can be fixed fairly simply. I just figured I'd get some outside advice. You are like me. I have general contractor and engineers jumping in on this. Isn't there a professional contractors forum for them?

Its all good. Dont worry I didnt think it was directed at me but even if it was, I would not have taken it personally, I just felt I had to defend the nice guys giving advice
I have had projects that started with something small, then turned into something big and I know how frustrating it can be....especially when others are telling you ...well if you only did this at the start ARGGGGH... so I hear ya..
I think once your friend gets there and you bounce a few of these ideas off him, you should have problem fixed in no time..........BUT REMEMBER the most IMPORTANT thing when he is there..........BEER!

The beer will be flowing my friend. If I didn't feel confident in my buddies work, I obviously wouldn't have taken his advice. Like I said, he isn't perfect and it won't be 100% to a building code, but it will be "safe" in my eyes. If I were to have done this all over again I'd have printed the building code and spent some more money and put more posts and such as was suggested by the computer print out from the home depot. Although I didn't have a permit for my basement, I printed out the building code on it and followed it as closely as I could.
The whole code and do it exactly like the book frustrated me because I see corners cut daily with my job. Techonolgy is a beautiful thing, but IMO it causes people to overreact. My son is a perfect example. My wifes stupid doctor kept having all these tests run on us to check to make sure our son didn't have any issues. If we found something out we were going to have the baby, so it was a waste of money and alls it did is worry my wife. 31 years ago when I was born, they didn't have ultrasounds and all these tests. Guess what plenty of people in my generation were born healthy.

I also want to add that I did get pissy in regards to some of the posts on here and I apologize. I just think some of you are a little naive to how stuff is constructed, not only in residential but in commercial also.
I never have claimed to be some professional contractor. Some of the posts "blasting me" were only tryint to help and I understand.
Whether I agree or not, I appreciate all the help. In the end I need a simple fix. I can't take this deck apart and do what some of you are suggesting. Its too late for that. I understand its a risk with no permits and such if I ever sell the house. Its too late, and I will cross that bridge if I get there. We don't plan on ever moving. Yeah, that could change but there is a small chance of that.

Trayvon Martin Case: Gov. Scott to appoint task force to review 'Stand your Ground' law
SEMINOLE COUNTY, Fla. - A local state lawmaker helped Gov. Rick Scott choose a new state attorney in the case of slain teen Trayvon Martin.
State Sen. Gary Siplin said he worked closely with Scott and others to make sure that the prosecutor on the case was far removed from any ties to the Sanford Police Department.
"I got so many calls about justice. They felt that the current prosecutor who had a relationship with the Sanford Police Department would not be fair. There may be an appearance of conflict of interest," Siplin said.
The news was announced as a rally for Martin began Thursday evening, along with demands for the arrest of vigilante George Zimmerman.
- SLIDESHOW: Crowds at Trayvon Martin rally
- READ: Statement from Gov. Rick Scott
- RAW VIDEO: Al Sharpton speaks at rally
- TRAYVON MARTIN: See childhood photos
Zimmerman shot and killed Martin, who was unarmed and returning home from a 7-Eleven, on Feb. 26.
Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi worked together to appoint Angela B. Corey (of the 4th Judicial Circuit) as the newly assigned state attorney in the investigation into the death of Martin. Scott and Bondi reached out to State Attorney Norman Wolfinger, and after a conversation, Wolfinger decided to step down from the investigation and turn it over.
Scott also announced the formation of a task force, which will convene following the conclusion of the investigation by Corey.
Scott and Bondi said they have full faith in the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, the U.S. Department of Justice and in Corey that a full and thorough investigation will be conducted.
"We're honored to serve the governor, and we're going to get right on it," said Corey.
WFTV legal analyst Bill Sheaffer said he believes the tough prosecutor from Jacksonville will get it right.
"She's a no-nonsense prosecutor. The governor could not have asked any other prosecutor better than her to oversee this investigation and present this case to the grand jury," said Sheaffer.
Scott is taking steps to make sure a death like Martin's doesn't happen again. He issued a statement on Thursday night calling for "a task force on citizen safety and protection to investigate how to make sure a tragedy such as this does not occur in the future." (Read Scott's full statement)
Scott said he has plans to appoint a task force to review Florida's "Stand your Ground" law.
The "Stand your Ground" has become a hot topic across the country in response to Martin's death.
GOP presidential candidate Newt Gingrich gave his opinion about the law and the case.
"Apparently, the man, the shooter, was following the young man. Now that's not a 'Stand your own Ground,' that's a 'chase the other person into their ground,'" said Gingrich.
Gingrich said he thinks the law as it's meant to be interpreted does not apply to the Martin case.
Sanford Police Chief Bill Lee announced that he has temporarily stepped down as chief, during a press conference outside of Sanford City Hall on Thursday.
"I must temporarily remove myself from the position of police chief for the city of Sanford," Lee said. "It's apparent my involvement in this matter is overshadowing the process, therefore I must temporarily remove myself as police chief."
Two captains will lead the department while the city searches for an interim chief.
The NAACP and people in the community have called for Lee to be fired.
WFTV learned that Lee will likely be off the job until the State Attorney's Office finishes its investigation, and he will continue to collect his $102,000 annual salary in the meantime.
Civil rights leader Rev. Al Sharpton led the rally for Martin at Fort Mellon Park in Sanford Thursday evening, calling for Zimmerman's arrest.
"Arrest Zimmerman now!" shouted Sharpton.
Zimmerman claimed he acted in self-defense, and the lack of his arrest has prompted outrage from civil rights activists, local leaders and people from around the country.
More than 10,000 people gathered at the park, asking for justice in the case.
"No justice, no peace!" shouted the crowd.
"We can't allow a legal precedent to be established in this city that tells us it is legal for a man to kill us, tell any story he wants, and walks out with the murder weapon," said Sharpton.
Martin's mother, Sybrina Fulton, also spoke to the crowd and was overwhelmed with emotion as she read a verse from the Bible.
"Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your understanding. I stand before you today, not knowing how I'm walking right now, because my heart hurts for my son," Fulton said.
Martin's father, Tracey Martin, also addressed the crowd.
"I pledge I will not let my son die in vain, making sure George Zimmerman pays for what he did to our son," Tracey Martin said.
A town hall meeting at the Civic Center is scheduled for Monday night.
Only WFTV spoke to the family of the boy who was with Martin the day he was killed.
They said detectives never interviewed Martin's friend, 14-year-old Chad Joseph Jr. He was hanging out with Martin the day of the shooting, watching the NBA All-Star game at Joseph's mother's house.
His family said that Joseph Jr. was the one that wanted candy during the game, which prompted Martin to venture out of the Retreat at Twin Lakes complex to the 7-Eleven.
"He asked Chad, 'What do you want back?' And Chad told him, 'Hey, I'll take a pack of Skittles.' The Skittles he had on him," said Chad Joseph Sr.
Joseph Sr. said his son didn't even know Martin was dead until after school the next day.
The Sanford Police Department did not reply to WFTV's messages about whether the teen was interviewed.
Also on Thursday, Seminole State College kicked out Zimmerman, who remains silent and in hiding.
Sanford police reportedly know where he is, and only Zimmerman's father has spoken publicly on his behalf. His father wrote a letter, claiming Zimmerman is Hispanic, with many black family members and friends, and the racist media portrayal is not true.

Stanley JeanBaptiste said he spoke with Colorado wide receivers coach Eric Kiesau this morning but he still hasn't received a scholarship offer.
"He's just telling me to be patient and he's going to keep me informed about the scholarship coming," JeanBaptiste said. "That's all they're telling me."
JeanBaptiste said he is under the impression that CU coaches are waiting to learn if one of their recruits will qualify academically in Boulder.
Colorado has at least two available scholarships with two more opening up after the spring semester because former quarterback Matt Ballenger and former wide receiver Chance Blackmon are transferring this summer.
"It's kind of hard, but I like Colorado because I can get playing time," JeanBaptiste said. "So I'll just be patient with them."
Colorado also has offered a scholarship to former Michigan wide receiver Toney Clemons, who will choose his next school by mid-May and visited Boulder last weekend. Clemons would not be able to play next season because of NCAA transfer rules.
JeanBaptiste said there is a chance he would consider coming to Boulder without a scholarship but with a promise of one in the future. But that isn't the ideal situation, especially considering he has a scholarship offer on the table from Florida International, which is recruiting him to play safety.
The 6-foot-3 wide receiver from the Miami area says he is trying to be patient with CU because he really likes the program and wants to be a Buff, but doing so is hard because Florida International has ramped up its efforts to land his services in recent weeks.
JeanBaptiste said he last played defense in his senior year in high school. He played wide receiver, a little bit of cornerback and saw plenty of action at safety that year.
He attended North Carolina Tech Preparatory Christian Academy last fall to work on improving his test scores. He played wide receiver there and caught about 30 passes for more than 500 yards and six touchdowns. He prefers to play wide receiver at the college level, but will play defense if it means the difference between getting a scholarship or not.
JeanBaptiste said when he was in Boulder, he spent time running routes and catching passes from CU quarterbacks and they had immediate chemistry. He believes he could contribute right away next season if a scholarship offers comes his way.

10 Athletes Who Dominated Their Sports Like a Boss
In our little lives, only few of us are lucky enough to surpass our childhood heroes. Robert Kelly Slater (a Floridian professional surfer) is one of those lucky dudes. In 2007 when he became the all-time leader in career event wins by winning the Boost Mobile Pro event, Slater transcended the three-time world champion and his hero Tom Curren. Known for his competitive prowess and style. Kelly Slater is 11-times ASP World Tour Champion, 5 of which he'd won in a row between 1994–98.
Nicknamed the 'Russian Bear' Karelin, now retired was a Greco-Roman wrestler for the Soviet Union and Russia. He's been crowned with a bunch of other names too -"Alexander the Great", "Russian King Kong" and "The Experiment" which he absolutely deserves thanks to a record 887 win with only two losses in his entire career. [watch some of highlights]
Karelin was born extraordinarily big, weighing 6.8 kg (15 lb). He began training as a wrestler in 1981 and went undefeated from 1982 to 1987 then after suffering a pair of losses resumed his winning streak for the second time from 1987 to 2000. Karelin is known for his inhumanly strength, lightening quickness combined with his dominance of the sport. This Hulk of a man knew well how to utilise his power to his advantage. Karelin was known for something called the 'Karelin lift' where he would hoist his opponents up into the air and slam him down violently. That throw alone would get him 5 points. He'd won gold medals thrice at the 1988, 1992 and 1996 Olympic Games and a silver medal in the 2000.
The International Tennis Hall of Fame states, "For sheer strength of performance and accomplishment there has never been a tennis player to match (her)". Margaret Smith Court is now a retired world No. 1 professional tennis player who amassed more major titles than any other player in history of professional tennis.
Court entered the tennis world with a bang winning seven consecutive singles titles at the Australian Championships starting at the age of 17 in 1960. During the open era in the 1970s Court became the first woman and the second woman in history to win the singles Grand Slam all in the same year. Court won a record 24 of those titles, and also 19 women's doubles and 21 mixed doubles titles making a record 64 major titles overall. Believe it or not she is the only player in tennis history to complete a multiple slam in all three disciplines: singles, women's doubles, and mixed doubles.

Good info. Thanks for posting.
This is a discussion on Conceal+Carry=Survive..It's a TV show on spike within the Concealed Carry Issues & Discussions forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I heard Tom Gresham talking about this on his show the otherday and just thought I would throw it out there...The Info is below. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ...
I heard Tom Gresham talking about this on his show the otherday and just thought I would throw it out there...The Info is below.
Beginning July 10th, Spike TV debuts a two-hour programming block called Dont be a Victim, which includes the show, Conceal+Carry=Survive. The show follows nine students, one of whom is Petoske, as they go through a concealed handgun course. The students backgrounds and histories range greatly, and some have never fired a gun before. Petoske can also be seen in training videos on Gun Talk TV and in episodes of Guns and Gear.
Good info. Thanks for posting.

THEY always spin it to make the participants look stupid, the people to look like kill crazed idiots and with liberal anti-gun commentary.
Exploitation of ordinary citizens and circumstances to create controversy and a "reality TV Show" is their stock and trade. I cringe to think about this upcoming show. As I said they will probably make the students in the class look stupid, Include comments that make NRA members look like Skin Heads and the rest of us gun/Carry Permit folks look like "End Of The World Bomb Shelter Survivalists" sitting behind our machine guns.
What won't the networks exploit next? Cross dressing gay dogs? That is why I don't watch network TV.

US Army knife
|Main Discussion
|Theories may be removed if ...
See the Lostpedia theory policy for more details.
- The DHARMA Initiative was originally commissioned by the UN, and thus members of the U.S. military were present on the Island during the first incarnation of the Initiative in order to help get it off the ground (national governments often send military to assist with UN endeavors).
- Could possibly belong to Pickett, who used the word "klicks" to reference distance. "Klick" is military slang for kilometers, possibly suggesting Pickett was in the Army.
- Over 20 years ago was the Iran-Iraq War where Sayid was stationed. Could this be Kelvin's knife or belong to somebody else?
- The war that Sayid was involved in was the first Gulf War (circa 1990), where Kelvin Inman was a commanding officer (who was later on the Island to man the Hatch with Radzinsky).
- Ana Lucia says the knife is "probably 20 years old" in "The Other 48 Days", which presumably takes place in 2004. Kelvin Inman did not become a spook overnight. He could have been carrying the knife since he first joined the Army - say, in 1984 or earlier.
- In "One of Them", the camera lingers on a knife that Sayid pulls out of the torture box Kelvin gave him. This happens again later in the episode, when Kelvin uses his knife to cut Sayid loose in Iraq. These look like the same knife, and also like the Army knife in "The Other 48 Days".
- Could be an artifact belonging to Jones' Group or their fellow soldiers.
- The war that Sayid was involved in was the first Gulf War (circa 1990), where Kelvin Inman was a commanding officer (who was later on the Island to man the Hatch with Radzinsky).

We see what's inside through the words from each stanza. Whether its love, family, changes or pain, life is about sharing what you feel with others so that they may feel that way as well. There's nothing more pure in life than a poet expressing their feelings through words from the soul. Poetry is an instance wrapped in emotion showered by inspiration.

Good while it lasted 11/19/2012
This review is from: KOSS SB49 Stereo Headset
Great sound, great comfort. Everything was clear and I had no problems with it.
Only lasted 9 months. I was expecting this to last much longer considering the lifetime warranty listed on new egg. This failed to impress now that it hasn't even lasted a year.
Other Thoughts:
Normally I don't write reviews but I've had it with constantly buying new headsets to have them break within a year's time. This is getting far too frustrating for me. I pay expecting quality and got this.

This October Patch Tuesday, Microsoft published just six bulletins, three of which are critical but they do cover most commonly used versions of Office and Windows. Four of the six bulletins impact Windows 10 and will be rolled up into the Windows 10 cumulative update. Compared with months past, this is a light month which is good news.

Adobe Overshadows 'Last' Microsoft Patch Tuesday
In the last Patch Tuesday before users may upgrade their Windows operating systems to Windows 10 on July 29 and subsequently enlist a changed patching process, we have 14 updates to deal with from Microsoft that address 59 total vulnerabilities. Equally as important however are the three 0-days in Adobe Flash Player and an impending 193 new fixes from Oracle,

And for good reason, when you consider cyber criminals' attacks on Target, JP Morgan, Home Depot and most recently of course, Sony Pictures. Regardless of your opinion on how Sony has handled the breach to-date,

Critical Updates for Adobe Reader and Acrobat Released – You Can Breathe Again
You can stop holding your breath now, the wait is over.
Adobe has released security updates for Acrobat and its PDF Reader software fixing critical vulnerabilities in its Windows and Mac software.
Last week, on Patch Tuesday, Adobe explained that although it was releasing security patches for Flash Player and AIR,
Busy Patch Tuesday for May Including More for IE
Microsoft is set to release more bulletins next week than we've seen in in the last few Patch Tuesdays, and the impact looks to be significant. The May patch load will include 8 bulletins, 2 of which are rated critical. The busy month comes just one-week after the out-of-band patch for IE, MS14-021,
Got Adobe Reader on your Android device? You Had Best Update it ASAP
A critical security vulnerability has been found in Adobe Reader Mobile, the version of the popular PDF Reader developed for the Android operating system, which could lead to remote hackers compromising documents stored on your Android device and its SD memory card.
If you were feeling smug that you had managed to avoid the Heartbleed flaw affecting up to 50 million Android users because you're not running Android 4.1.1 of Jellybean,
Isn't It Time Oracle Gave Us Monthly Security Updates for Java?
In some ways, it could be argued that Java is an incredible success.
I'm serious. Stop laughing at the back.
You see, according to Oracle, Java's developer, the product is used on over 3 billion different devices worldwide. That *is* impressive.
But, for those of us concerned with securing systems and keeping computer data safe,
February Patch Tuesday to Include 5 Bulletins; Adobe Rushes Flash Fix
Microsoft will release 5 bulletins next week for February Patch Tuesday; 2 are rated critical and 3 are important. These bulletins address vulnerabilities in Windows Security Software, and the .NET framework. For the first time in a long time, there won't be a patch for Internet Explorer. Although Microsoft has said they target IE cumulative updates every other month,
October Patch Tuesday Includes IE Patch and 7 Others
Microsoft released 8 patches this October Patch Tuesday – 4 are critical and 4 important. Two pieces of good news this month – the IE vulnerability Microsoft released a fix-it for last month will be included in this month's crop of patches and the bulk of the October issues do not impact the current code base.
Nothing Pretty About Fireworks Delivered From Microsoft This Patch Tuesday
IT admins may have taken the Fourth off to enjoy some fireworks, but they'll be very busy this week patching their systems. It's not a pretty Patch Tuesday this month with 7 bulletins, 6 of which are critical. That brings our total of critical bulletins for the year to 22, which is fairly high, considering Microsoft released only 34 critical bulletins for the entire calendar year of 2012.
Ten Bulletins This May Patch Tuesday; But Don't Get Excited
While 10 patches covering 33 vulnerabilities may seem like a high number, it isn't all bad news for IT professionals this May Patch Tuesday. Only two of the 10 patches released today are critical and both impact Microsoft Windows and Internet Explorer. The two critical-rated patches address the IE 8 zero-day that made news after attacking a website belonging to the U.S.
Patch Tuesday Not Too Taxing For IT This Month, Despite Heavy Patch Count
It's another heavy month of patches this month from Microsoft. There are 9 bulletins, with 2 critical and 7 important. While 9 may seem like a lot, there are a few pieces of good news this month. First, there are only 2 critical bulletins and most of the patches are rated important. Second, most of the impact is on the legacy code base,
No Luck o' the Irish for IT this St. Patty's Day
IT admins can't seem to catch a break this year. First, the never ending stream of Java issues that has kept folks on their toes since January. Now they've got another busy month of patches ahead of them, with 7 total patches from Microsoft, 4 of which are critical. However, once again the issues outside of Microsoft will likely eclipse the Patch Tuesday patches this month.
Microsoft Serves Up a Turkey for Thanksgiving this Patch Tuesday
IT administrators may find they don't have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving with a disruptive Patch Tuesday headed their way. With 6 Microsoft bulletins, 4 of which are critical and some restarts required, along with a host of other issues, IT can expect a disruptive Patch Tuesday this month.

Man shot, killed in Salinas Saturday
SALINAS, Calif. - Salinas police said a 34-year-old man was shot and killed after what appears to be an argument Saturday night.
The incident happened at 1036 N. Sanborn Rd. at around 6:53 p.m.
Officers said when they arrived at the scene, known gang members tried to drag Heron Moran's body into Moran's apartment. Police said when the suspects saw police, they dropped his body and ran.
Moran was taken to Natividad Medical Center, where he died from his injuries.
Police said more than 40 people tried to approach them at the crime scene and had to be forced back before medical aid could be performed on the victim.
There were many people on scene, but police said they gave different stories of what happened. Officers said they believe there may have been an argument between several people before shots were fired and Moran was killed.
Police ask anyone with information about the incident to call the department's tiplines at 758-7133 or 775-4222.
