garage door removal
So I will try to make this brief. Quick question though. So I have a home that is slab on grade. There used to be a garage under the home. I am removing the garage door and putting up a window and a stud wall where the garage door was.
So the question is....do I need to pour a small stem wall the height of the stem wall arond the rest of the home? Or should I just use expansion bolts and bolt a treated piece of lumber directly onto the slab?
I was planning on pouring a stem wall but I am not sure if it would even seal as well as a board directly on the slab. Plus since the origingal header form the garage door is still intact very little weight will be on this footer. If I do need to pour a stem wall is rebar reinforcement nessacary?
Thanks for any and all help!
I have seen hundreds of garages converted to living space doing exactly what you are doing...no stem required. You will get a better seal using the treated sill plate and sill seal or silicone, then you would with a cold joint in concrete.
Just another thought but not to rain on your parade, in Canada there are many municipalities that are not allowing cars to be parked directly in front of living space. They have introduced these types of bylaws for safety reasons and it therefore doesnt allow most home owners to convert their garage to living space or even widen their driveway to fit another car.
thanks for the replys any more?
Wow thanks for the responses guys! So am I to assume that is what most of you would do?
It sure would be easier to simply bolt a piece of treated lumber directly to the slab and not worry about pouring any mud!
so what do you think a 1/2" expansion bolt every 2'? across the 10' doorway?
I had an addition put on a slab - better check the local building codes - mine stated that there had to be "X" amount of both thickness and height of brick - with the bottom board attached to this.
I'd probably go with the pt wood on the conc. unless: check the slope and the wind. Occasional wind driven rain coming in to a garage is one thing, under your sill is another, you don't want to rely on caulking.

There are lies, damned lies, and--well, you know the rest.
Statistics about operating systems are, by their nature, a bit hard to gather. Computers and handheld devices don't typically broadcast their status to the general Internet populace. If devices do phone home, it's usually to the hardware or software makers, who then dutifully report exaggerated numbers to make their bottom line look good.
Getting objective numbers, then, is more of a challenge.
One time-honored way of getting operating system statistics is to use web analytics to sample incoming traffic requests and figure out what browser and operating system the requests are coming from. This sorta-kinda works, but it relies on a lot of "ifs" for accuracy. Is the browser user-agent correctly interpreted? Which sites are being sampled?
This last is pretty important: if a web site sample included data from, say, Linux Today, Slashdot, and LWN, then one would expect the number of Linux users visiting these sites to be higher than those in a sample that had MSN, Windows.com, or IHatePenguins.com. A bit of an exaggeration, but you see the point.
That's why sampled data is so different. A comparison of browser data, for instance, shows a pretty wide variation of percentages on browsers, because there are different samples and different sampling methods used.
All of this, I should emphasize, is a long way of saying don't take these numbers as gospel. They are only meant to represent general trends. But sometimes the trends seem too interesting not to point out.
On Wednesday, I wrote about recent moves some open source projects are taking to replace Firefox with the Chromium browser. In that article, I emphasized that, based on the same chart I linked above, Firefox seemed to be in good shape, and ultimately the Chromium moves were just something that happens in the product-rich environment like ours.
But while I was noodling around in the throes of data, something else caught my eye. I was poking around the Wikimedia Visitor Stats for May, and noticed something peculiar: operating system stats for Linux were (as usual) depressingly low. The numbers for Android browsers, however, were shockingly bad: only 0.20 percent of reported page requests came from Android devices, compared to 1.60 percent of requests coming from iPhones. (Linux in general came in at 1.80 percent, in case you were wondering.)
Clearly, that seemed really off, considering the claims made by market researchers that put Android device numbers much closer to iPhone numbers. I know there's a disparity, but Android requests being eight times smaller than iPhone requests? Whoa.
Again, there could be other factors at play. If Android users are using Wapedia, Quickpedia, or some other app to get info, that may not register as a browser-based page request.
Other stat gatherers seem to hold up similar proportions: Clicky shows around 60 percent of incoming mobile OS traffic belonging to iPhones, and about 12 percent to Android.
Ah, hang on. A telling stat that makes me wonder what's going on: Blackberry numbers are about 13 percent, which definitely seems off because every market survey I have seen to date still puts Blackberry in the market lead position. So, what's going on? Given that Blackberry is the known market leader, why do iPhones get so much higher traffic?
This has been noted before: mobile web requests have usually not reflected the sales data, which SearchEngineWatch noted back in May 2009. But, also tellingly, iPhone web requests have historically been much higher than anyone should expect.
Clearly, web traffic as OS analyzer is a faulty method of gleaning data, because usage patterns are so broadly different. And it does make sense that iPhone users would be more likely to surf than Blackberry users. Android, however, puzzles me. All I seem to do on my Android is surf and check e-mail, so I am unclear how my usage pattern differs from that of an iPhone user. Are these folks just that much more connected?

Today when I woke up there was a fly buzzing around so I snapped at it with my snapper snout, but I am old and decrepit so I couldn't catch it. Nina got so excited that I was playing with a beetle (because usually I just sleep, purr, eat, growl and make poopies) that she had to have an emergency cuddle-bee and put off getting out of bed for another five minutes. She was late to work but she doesn't care, because I am far more important and I get cuter and cuter every single day.
When Nina started doing laundry, I wanted her to wash my favorite pillow so I helped show her which one it was by throwing up on it. And not just a regular old hairball, it was a big choppy wet log of masticated cat food and water in the shape of my kitty cat intestine, which is the same shape that my poopies come in!! Nina wasn't very pleased but she washed the pillow anyways. After it was all clean and dry she put the pillow on the floor for just a moment while she put away some clothes, but it was too long for me and I threw up on it again. Nina washed the pillow a second time but still she left it on top of a pile of laundry instead of putting it on the bed for me to sleep on. I had a hairball on it, a little one though. Nina had to wash the same pillow again. She was scared to put the pillow back on her bed but she finally did. I'm so glad!!!

text: WASHINGTON, Jan. 30, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Free File Alliance, a nonprofit coalition of industry-leading tax software companies partnered with the Internal Revenue Service, today announced the launch of the 2013 Free File program. Since its inception in 2003, Free File has offered free online commercial tax preparation software for 70 percent of taxpayers. This year, taxpayers with a 2012 Adjusted Gross Income of $57,000 or less – about 100 million Americans – may visit www.IRS.gov/freefile to prepare, complete and e-file their federal tax returns at no cost. In addition to offering comprehensive tax services for 70 percent of taxpayers, Free File also offers basic federal e-filing services with no income limitations. This basic e-filing service, called Free File Fillable Forms, allows taxpayers who are familiar with tax law and need no preparation assistance to complete and file their federal income tax electronically. There are no income limitations to use Free File Fillable Forms. "Free File is the one-stop shop for 70 percent of taxpayers to prepare and e-file their federal tax returns," said Tim Hugo, executive director of the Free File Alliance. "The service is unique because it gives taxpayers access to 15 different tax software offerings so they can choose the one that works best for their tax situation. With Free File, the industry's top software is all in one place, and it's all free." Hugo continued, "The Free File Alliance is committed to making e-filing fast, safe and free for 100 million taxpayers. Free File provides step-by-step assistance to take the guesswork out of doing your taxes. We invite eligible taxpayers to visit IRS.gov/freefile and join the 36 million Americans who have already used this program during the last 10 years."

From OpenWetWare
Part J37015 Alternative Protocol: Measuring LuxI
The motivation behind this protocol is to directly assessing the concentration of LuxI in the prey cell using a downstream GFP gene as a measurement. This is done as an alternative to measuring AHL indirectly using the T9002 assay. The concentrations of LuxI and AHL have so far been assumed to be equal. This protocol will allow us to compare the behaviour of the two chemicals, and if indeed, our assumption proves to be correct, the measurement of LuxI protocol can completely replace the less accurate indirect AHL measurement protocol.
VR: Be careful, we never said that LuxI and AHL are to be equal. That would be a poor assumption as AHL is catalyzed by LuxI and AHL diffuses through the membrane. Therefore you can expect a saturation of LuxI within hours whereas AHL will accumulate into the medium for much longer.
I am worried with this assay, as our modelling of T9002 and J37015 shows that these two parts are driven by the same parameters when it comes to assess LuxI. We should put more thinking into testing this part
Deepti: See the Talk Page please. Im not sure what needs to be done.
JS: Can we assume that the relationship between LuxI and AHL is linear?

Gainesville Man Dies While Saving Drowning Kids
A Gainesville man drowned while rescuing four kids from the water in Miami, and those who knew Douglas Butler say they're not surprised he risked his life.
Butler was in Miami to celebrate his birthday with family. His girlfriend, Mary Parker, says the day was perfect-- until, butler heard the four children screaming in the water off Key Biscayne.
Parker, says all she could do was watch helplessly from the shore as Butler and his nephew swam out to save the kids.
She says they were about a quarter mile off shore.
Butler helped put the children on to a rescue raft... and that was the last time anyone saw him alive.
Parker says doctors told her butler probably had a heart attack.
Witnesses say the children had been playing on a sandbar that collapsed.
Miami fire rescuers say the children, ages 3, 5, 12 and 15... all members of the same family... were taken to a hospital in Miami. the two oldest are expected to be fine. The other two are still in critical condition.

Age of Decadence - January Update
The January update for Age of Decadence talks about what happened in the last month and also gives some insights into how dialog options work, which is shown by a large amount of screenshots.
bottom line guys, RELEASE DATE, RELEASE DATE, RELEASE DATE. FOCUS.
In unrelated news, we entered the demo into IGF 2013 in Oct. I've never thought that we would win, obviously, but hoped for a nomination. Didn't happen, sadly. The judge couldn't get out of the town and felt that the demo was "seriously limited". I explained but I guess the damage was already done. Oh well…[/QOUTE]
I understand his frustration with the judge. Also, you can submit demos of unfinished games to IGF?
I forget, what's their issues of crowd funding? This seems like the perfect product. If Vince asked for 200k I wouldn't be surprised if he got 7 figures.
I believe the short answer is, More money won't mean a quicker release.
So you're saying no matter how many doctors you put on it, it still takes 9 months to deliver a baby?
What I'm saying is a little cash would free up that resource they might need or could allow them some more tools to help.
How is quitting their jobs and working on the game full time not going to get the game released sooner.
Lead Balloon
This game strikes me as a lead balloon. I played the whole demo and was underwhelmed after years (years…. years…..) of waiting, hype and discussion.
I think it will release to a few hundred die-hard fans but overall fail…..
Argh, I know that sounds so horribly cynical but I just can't shake the feeling after the demo….. it was so far from what I expected after all the talk on the forums about choice and consequences and an open concept world like Fallout 1/2 etc.
Really? I thought the demo was quite promising.
Would be more excited if it was a party RPG. Not sure why those are as rare as hen's teeth these days.
That's why i didn't finish the demo, plenty of games to go around until this comes out. no rush.
Game's coming out for sure. Still, it's a little worrying to see him talk about adding stuff at this point. He should just be polishing, polishing, polishing, one would think. Can't keep perfecting it forever. Gotta release at some point.
That's what polishing is (for me as a writer). While Nick and Oscar are working on their respective areas, I'm polishing the storylines, which is no different than a writer editing and rewriting parts of his book before sending the final draft to a publisher.
We are not adding any locations or features. I'm going through all locations and look for opportunities to add more dialogues, quest solutions, ties to other locations and such. Occasionally, I rewrite dialogues if I feel that the game needs something different here or there.
And yes, the game will obviously be released. Nobody goes that far only to stop at the finishing line. The estimated release date is Oct 2013.
I reallt like what I saw in the Demo, didn't finish it though. Just tried for a couple of hours, decided that I liked it, and choose to not play anymore until release. I think it will do just fine, the Steam greenlight shows there's still plenty of interest in the game.
I thought people here really liked the demo but apparently I´m the only one
I think I have played it through about twenty times with very diverging results and experiences according to the character I choose to play which is why I am actually still eager to play the full game
Although you could perhaps make a case for certain developers to stop procrastinate and finally release
Can't wait!
This game is never going to see the light of day.

Pitre Responds to Reviewers Questions
In the course of our two-week discussion on Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist, two of our reviewers asked specific questions, to which author Brant Pitre has very graciously responded.
In Braving Rabbinic Waters to Reveal Body and Blood, Max Lindenman asked:
Pitre's book, simply by being so accessible, forced me to consider questions I'd thought unanswerable. If first-century Jews weren't expecting a military Messiah, but someone very much like Jesus, why did intellectuals receive Him so coolly? Oughtn't they have connected the dots? Did their human qualities—perhaps their attachment to the status quo—prevent their doing so? Did Jesus' claim of divinity kill the deal by itself? Or could Jesus have confounded expectations in some way Pitre hasn't considered?
Pitre responds:
Great question. My students frequently ask me something similar: If Jesus actually fulfilled Jewish expectations in Scripture and tradition about a new exodus, a new Moses, the new Manna, and the Bread of the Presence, how is it that the Jewish leaders rejected him as Messiah?
A whole book needs to be written on this, but two points should suffice here. First, it is critical to stress that, contrary to what Christians often assume, not all of the Jewish leaders rejected Jesus. To the contrary, the Gospels are quite clear that even members of the Jerusalem Sanhedrin—think here of Nicodemus and Joseph of Arimathea—became Jesus' disciples (Mk 15:43; Jn 19:38-39).
Moreover, although the fact is frequently overlooked, the Acts of the Apostles is equally explicit about the partial success of Christian mission in Jerusalem: shortly before Stephen's martyrdom, "the number of the disciples multiplied greatly in Jerusalem, and a great many of the priests were obedient to the faith" (Acts 6:7). This is extremely important: according to Acts, many, not just some, of the Jewish priests converted to Christianity. Hence, the caricature that none of the Jewish leaders who knew the Scriptures accepted Jesus as Messiah is without foundation. It is contradicted by the first-century evidence in the New Testament itself.
Second, with that said, we still need to explain why the vast majority of Jewish priests and "the intellectual classes" as you put it, rejected him. On one level, we can only speculate, but the New Testament evidence suggests that at least three factors were operative.
(1) According to the Gospel of John, there was apparently skepticism toward the Scripture itself among some of these leaders. Jesus says to some of the Jewish leaders: "If you believed Moses, you would believe me, for he wrote of me. But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?" (Jn 6:46). In this passage, Jesus identifies faith in Scripture as a prerequisite to faith in his own teaching. Believing Scripture has always been a stumbling block, even in the first century A.D. (see Lk 24:25).

Jack Collison today threw down the gauntlet to promotion rivals Southampton as he said: "Now it's time to see what they are made of."
Collison scored a spectacular second-half winner at Leicester to ensure the shoot-out between West Ham and Southampton goes into Saturday, the final day of the season.
Despite West Ham's victory last night the south-coast club remain strong favourites to take the second automatic Championship promotion spot behind Reading.
Nigel Adkins's team are two points clear of West Ham and with a three-goal superior goal difference.
They play already relegated Coventry at St Mary's, where they have lost only three times in the League this season, while the Hammers are at home to Hull City.
West Ham's victory over Leicester, their 13th away win this season, takes things to the wire, though, and Collison is still firmly clinging to the automatic promotion lifeline.
"All the pressure is on Southampton on Saturday and if we do the business at home, who knows? Stranger things have happened," said the Wales midfielder. "It's going to be a cracking game against Hull. Everyone here is raring to go.
"I'm buzzing after that goal against Leicester and more importantly, the three points. Everyone will be up for it on Saturday and let's see what Southampton are made of.
"It's still not in our hands and Hull won't be an easy game but we will give it a right go, try to do our bit and then see what happens."
West Ham were always the better team last night but had to come from behind after Jermaine Beckford's headed goal in the 34th minute.
Centre-half Winston Reid turned in Matt Taylor's searching left-wing cross five minutes later and it was Collison who crashed home the winner, his first goal for almost three months, 13 minutes into the second half.
"On a personal level it was nice to score the goal, it's been long overdue and it was probably the most difficult of the two or three chances that I had last night," he said.
"I caught it sweet and luckily for me it went in but it was more important we got the three points.
"We had a game plan against Leicester and it worked well. We could have nicked one or two more goals but the win was the main thing, plus a good team performance and no injuries.
"It's my first full season back after a long-term injury and I'm pleased with the number of games I've played. I've been a bit in and out of the team but it's something I have to learn to deal with and when the opportunities come it's up to me to make the most of them."
Manager Sam Allardyce also believes the victory will increase the pressure on Southampton.
He said: "All we can do is our job which is trying to beat Hull at home. If we can do that, you never know. Southampton will be a little more nervous now than before we beat Leicester.
"We've stayed in the race until the final day of the season which is what we wanted to do.
"We will have to do our job against Hull and hope Coventry can help us against Southampton.
"It's still a slim chance but is better than the one we had before the Leicester game. Who knows what will happen on Saturday? Maybe Southampton will get the jitters and Coventry will play without fear having already been relegated."

My boyfriend and I have come up with a system to get things done. When we're both in our respective homes with a block of time, we list our tasks and tell each other what they are. After a few hours, one of us will call to see how much progress was made. So far, it's working out great: I've never gotten so much done!
So while this system of ours is making me more productive, it's also doing something far more important: It's allowing me to finally tap into all the unused potential I've been wasting. Along with procrastinating on mundane tasks, I'd also been wasting time — and my potential — in other areas, namely, art and writing.
Here's my story: I went to art school but promptly stopped making artwork after graduation. I did teach art, but that's completely different. I told my boyfriend about it, and his response was, "Maybe now is the time to get back to it!"
He is a man of his word. Less than a week later, we met at an art supply store and found some sketch pads on sale. Then he signed us up for drawing classes at the Art Students League here in NYC. Before I knew it, I was seated in front of an easel, charcoal in hand, blank paper in front of me. I smiled at him, standing at a nearby easel, and he smiled back. The last time I was taking a drawing class, I was half my age. I felt like an artist again, for the first time in half my life.
Another time we were perusing a museum gift shop and came across a book of postcards. He suggested buying the book so that I'd send them to him, one by one, with something — anything — I'd written. So far, I've been sending out two or three every week. Everybody wins: I get to write, he gets mail. What a great idea!
An epiphany
Then it hit me: In doing all this, he was bringing out the person I was meant to be, until adult life got in the way and I went off-track. I know it sounds lofty and far-fetched: one relationship can't do all that. Certainly my previous relationships are proof. But I am certain that it's not far-fetched, because this one seems to be doing so effortlessly.
This got me thinking about the false self/true self idea. In the most reductive terms, the true self can be looked at as God's will, who we were created to be. It's who we are when we strip away all our facades and defenses. Our false selves are what gets stripped away: our egos, the identities that others formed of us, or that we formed for ourselves, with no regard for God's will.
I wondered if I ever thought about preserving my true self in any of my prior relationships. It was a huge epiphany to think that before this, I was completely willing to enter a relationship at the expense of my true self. Part of it was because I wanted nothing more than to be accepted by a potential mate. Because of that, I threw myself headlong into the effort to become someone else's idea of who I should be.
One of my favorite pop songs in the '80s had the lyrics, "Love is a stranger in an open car/to tempt you in and drive you far away." For years, I thought that was the most romantic idea.
See the problem?
The very idea that a relationship would take me away from my true self was appealing to me. What a dangerous precedent I set, and I paid mightily for it. I recalled all the years, all the dating disasters, all the failed relationships and heartache that arose from this idea.
It makes sense: How can we be fully present in a relationship if we're not fully present within ourselves? How can we expect to know our partner's true self if we don't know our own? What kind of relationship happens at the expense of God's will? If we're single and looking, which self are we presenting on dates? Which self do we feel we have to be around someone we like?
I'm infinitely grateful that I'm realizing it now and can avoid another 20 years of living in my false self. And I'm even more grateful that I found someone who saw the true self in me, accepted it and let it come out.
I encourage all members of CM — single, dating or otherwise — to think about this.If you cannot be your true self around others, you're living a life of wasted potential.Click To Tweet Take it from me, it's not a life you want to lead. Seek out God's will by living your true self. Seek out others who know and accept you for who you are, not who they think you should be. The peace of mind you'll have is divine!

For a superb glam and professional appearance liquid eyeliner is hands down the best eyeliner you can use. It is also efficient since it continues much longer than pencil eyeliner. liquid liners may be used for the most thin eyeliner placement up to the most dramatic thick lines. You may get liquid eyeliners in so many colors also, from the blackest black, to such colours as navy liquid eyeliner if you would like a change from black. Should you decide to use pencil eyeliners buy the mineral pencil eyeliners since they're a far greater quality and combination better.
Pencil eyeliner:
These are brilliant eyeliners which come in pencil form. You can get mineral pencil eyeliner, and other eyeliners that are economical, to quite expensive. What type of eyeliner you buy largely depends on what sort of look you're attempting to accomplish. Pencils can function nicely for defined appearances.
The best way to apply mineral pencil eyeliner:
Choose your color then make sure it's sharp. Put on the liner to the border of the eyelash on the top and bottom lashes then use a make-up brush to smudge. In a pinch you'll be able to utilize a Q-tip to smudge.
liquid eyeliner The eyeliner most used by professionals because of its adaptability to any look. Itis a long lasting, versatile eyeliner that can be used to achieve many different looks from remarkable to the classic smoky eye. Using different types of brushes is what helps you achieve the look you want. You can use miniature brushes to get additional fine lines, or utilize a thicker brush to get a thicker lined look.
How to apply liquid eyeliner:
To apply liquid eyeliner evenly it is great to wet the brush a bit first, then dip the mini brush into your favourite color of liquid eyeliner. To keep the line thin, apply less pressure, to make the line thicker and more sensational apply more pressure. Make sure you allow the liner to dry before you open your eyes so that you don't get it all over you. Additional information about no smudge eyeliner can be located here.
Types of eyeliner brushes:
You can get different types of eyeliner brushes to use depending on the appearance you need to accomplish. There are miniature brushes, angle brushes, round brushes and much more. Simply choose your brush predicated on the look you want as well as the kind of eyeliner you're employing. For much more exact placement pick a mini brush, for more smudged appearance you can select a larger brush, possibly an angle brush.

Was Joe Paterno Really That Generous?
Many of those defending Joe Paterno's legacy point to his involvement in and giving to many projects at the University.
At the press conference of the Penn State University Board of Trustees on the release of the Freeh Report, Trustee Kenneth Frazier was quoted as saying, that the report found "inexcusable failures on the part of Joe Paterno and others to protect children. But I'd also say Joe Paterno did a lot of tremendous things in his life, and there's a lot about his life that's worth emulating. You have to measure every human by the good they've done, the bad they've done." Board Chair Karen Peetz, ""The whole topic of Joe Paterno being honored or not being honored is a very sensitive topic," Peetz said. "We believe that with the report's findings, this is something that will continue to be discussed with the entire university community."
In one of the most reflective and positive retrospectives on Paterno by Jack MaCallum of Sports Illustrated, published in January of this year, Paterno is praised for his leadership of men, apparent commitment to rules, and his giving to the University, the later of which was apparently upwards of four million dollars. Now that the first two pillars of Paternos' positive contributions have been wrecked asunder, it was only a matter of time before the final on came unglued.
In a piece for the New York Times today by Jo Becker, we discover that the hand that giveth was also a pretty demanding taker…
In January 2011, Joe Paterno learned prosecutors were investigating his longtime assistant coach Jerry Sandusky for sexually assaulting young boys. Soon, Mr. Paterno had testified before a grand jury, and the rough outlines of what would become a giant scandal had been published in a local newspaper.That same month, Mr. Paterno, the football coach at Penn State, began negotiating with his superiors to amend his contract, with the timing something of a surprise because the contract was not set to expire until the end of 2012, according to university documents and people with knowledge of the discussions. By August, Mr. Paterno and the university's president, both of whom were by then embroiled in the Sandusky investigation, had reached an agreement.
Mr. Paterno was to be paid $3 million at the end of the 2011 season if he agreed it would be his last. Interest-free loans totaling $350,000 that the university had made to Mr. Paterno over the years would be forgiven as part of the retirement package. He would also have the use of the university's private plane and a luxury box at Beaver Stadium for him and his family to use over the next 25 years.
Ultimately, it makes one wonder why there is any debate about honoring Paterno at Penn State or maintaining his statue outside of Beaver Stadium. The only logical explanation is that the community around the University remains delusional, devoid of values, and in desperate need of leadership. Apparently, this whole fiasco has taught that insular community nothing.

Win Willunga Almonds by Helen Bennetts
Recipes and the story of almonds on the Fleurieu Peninsula
For decades Willunga in South Australia was the home of almonds in Australia, at one time producing 90% of the country's crop. Today this kernel still holds a special place in local life on the Fleurieu Peninsula.
Twenty years ago Helen Bennetts joined this farming community and started collecting recipes and almond information. Willunga Almonds is the culmination of that almond journey and we have two copies of this new book to be won! And yes, the entry form that went missing in action over the festive period is now below! Sorry for that oversight folks.
Around July each year the Almond Blossum festival is held and the community gathers to toast the opening flowers. That this festival is still going and almond trees line many streets in the town, it's small wonder that Helen Bennetts, with her interest in growing and cooking, became enamoured of the humble almond.
The almond's history goes back centuries, it was fed to Pharaohs and hailed for its health benefits so recipes often reflect these origins with dishes from the Mediterranean and Middle East in particular.
In Willunga Almonds, Helen Bennetts presents specially selected recipes that reflect the influence of the almond's history as cooked in South Australian home kitchens with produce from the Fleurieu Peninsula: grapes, wine, olives, oil and seasonal fruit and vegetables.
This book was released on the 10th December and we have two copies just for VisitVineyards subscribers so enter now!

text: The allegation was that Rino didn't have as many customer contracts as it had claimed. The company's CEO soon told auditors that the charge was partly true, admitting that two customer contracts had not been signed. Rino's CEO also said there might be problems with 20% to 40% of its other customer contracts. The stock was delisted from the Nasdaq as a result. Shortly after Muddy Waters published a story on March 2 titled "CCME: Irrefutable Evidence of Fraud," China MediaExpress ( CCME) announced that its auditor and CFO resigned. On Monday, China MediaExpress announced that the Nasdaq notified the company that it is "exercising its discretionary authority" to suspend trading in the stock on April 12. On the other hand, Orient Paper ( ONP), Muddy Waters' first target, ultimately determined its accounting was clean after a long investigation into accusations of fraud and misappropriation. However, Orient Paper on March 23 disclosed that its 2008 financial results were audited by a firm that didn't have an accounting license. -- Written by Robert Holmes in Boston. >To contact the writer of this article, click here: Robert Holmes. >To follow Robert Holmes on Twitter, go to http://twitter.com/RobTheStreet. >To submit a news tip, send an email to: email@example.com.

Fairly recently I started working on routinely drawing in a sketchbook using a regular set of pencils from 2H to 8B and a handful of Charcoal pencils to try something new. This all started up after I watched a video on vimeo where it was mentioned to draw something cool everyday. It is a pretty simple logic to make something you personally enjoy along with routinely refining small skill aspects and trying new things.
So firstly I am curious if anyone else uses charcoal and has a recommendation toward keeping it under control in a sketch book, I have used generic hair spray as a fixative previously and wondered if the same stuff should work with charcoal without making pages stick or affecting the drawings?
Next I was curious if anyone else routinely had a traditional sketch book maintained and how they decide on drawing things or creating their own sketches? I know there are plenty around the internet to check out, I just felt like having a little open discussion on where others find inspirations and ideas. I feel that sketch books are quite a personal thing typically and a little haven for artists to explore, practice, and refine their skills while exploring their creativity unhindered.


text: Got a silver 2gb second gen used on ebay 15.99 with free shipping. Looks of nothing major. But it is completely dead. If I plug it in to usb on my mac mini or thinkpad it comes on sometimes. I see apple logo and it reset some how. Not sure what happened. Now I get the screen and it says english etc. It even show half juice now. Bright screen. But 30 seconds later the screen fades and it turns off. The click wheel does even seem to respond. I can replace that no bigee. But about the power would a new battery help. Also If I completely remove the battery will it still power on like if I connect it to my jbl speaker dock or the wall ac adapter made by apple. I read some other forums people say if you remove the battery it still works. But haven't been able to verify that. Or is it not worth it and just resell it for parts for 20 or so.

So is that supposed to be "hammer-less?" What's the deal with the hidden hammer?
You know... I used to say that all the time. Then one day I looked around and lo and behold, I was the resident "gun guy" among my non-gunny friends. Heh. Didn't see that one coming.So when the calls goes out, I'm the guy most likely to get it.Kind of like how if I need glass, George is the guy I'm going to call. Or if I need a gun mangled, Jesse is the guy I'm going to call. You just have to be kind of a freak about guns to your friends to the point that when they see a gun they instantly think of you. (Sometimes however that's not always a good thing.)-T.

|I suggest you look at salvage charges like ambulance services. The average amubulance ride takes about 15 minutes and costs $1000. If you try to break it down on an hourly basis, it looks like piracy. However, most of the time the ambulances (and the salvage boats) are sitting around doing and earning nothing.
|On a recent delivery I had to get the boat I was on towed.... The TowBoat US bill would have been $750 or so. Given that TowBoat US unlimited memberships only cost $125 or so, that means the previous five years I've been a member have just been paid for... I look at TowBoat US membership like AAA for my boat... not something I want to use, but nice to have when I need it.
|I have no comment on the specific charges however no one is factoring in the downtime. Seatow is not pulling boats 24x7. Part of the charges must be the amortized cost of all assets. He has to cover boat,dock insurance etc 24/7 365 whether he is working or not so the charges while engaged reflect the overall costs. Obviously very few commenting here run a business for profit. Independent of whether you feel the charges are fair they are what the owner feels he has to charge to survive the business. I don't know many millionaire recreational tow operators, if there are maybe that's a business to go into.
|We were anchored out off the beach for the July 4th fireworks and stayed there overnight. During the night a storm hit and we dragged our 60 lb Bruce with all chain rode into shallower water. We have a 5 9 draft and landed in 4 5 water. We were grounded. Since the weather calmed down we decided to sit there until morning and then deal with it. We sat there all day waiting for the tide to come back in and during which we tried kedging off, motoring off, putting out the jib to heal over and motor off, but we were stuck. We have Tow Boat coverage so we called them in. They attempted the same with no luck. We finally got off by having them tow us along with healing us over about 30 degrees by pulling the halyard. Final bill: Zilch. The captain wrote us a receipt showing that without the coverage it would have cost us $160 for the crew of two at one hour.
|Good point Minnewaska.
Folks, we are bickering with someone who plans to check out of their real life. I'm just saying there may be irreconcilable differences here, as crisncate is clearly motivated by a significant disconnect with the mainstream at the moment. I say, good for him/her if they've found a way to be happy. Just don't ask the rest of us to change with you. We like and understand the current system/dream, as imperfect as it is.

Hey, Mr. "people prey on others" you left a few costs out of your tow estimate, like:
At least two divers to set those "precious" airbags- what is a good qualified diver worth, or should he simply do his job for the admiration of the people and karma points?
You're about half light on crew. Two boats, two licensed salvage/tow skippers, at least two line handlers.
Do you think those TWO tow boats came free, with no carrying costs and no running costs? Two boats with engines running all day... how many gallons of fuel went into this rescue?
Insurance. Nuff said.
Airbags- somebody has to pay for them.
Finally, the "Lost Opportunity" cost. While SeaTow was tied up with this guy all day, they had no opportunity to take on other tow work. if, conceivably, they could have picked up a couple of $500 tow jobs while hauling this boat off the reef, then that cost gets added on as well.
What you fail to understand is that this is not a charity, it is a business, just like a doctor, or a lawyer, or anybody else you turn to when the chips are down. Don't like the system? put your money where you mouth is, Wavy Gravy, and start your own pro bono, power to the people, pay whatever you think it's worth, man, kumbaya towing service...
And don't bitch when you get stiffed by some other guy who sounds a lot like you.
First, your overly simplistic analysis fails to account for travel time. Most tow boat operators charge from when they leave their base to when they get back to their base, and IMHO, that's fairly reasonable.
Second, you also fail to account for the fact that there are serious risks when working salvage, maybe not in this case, but in general, there are.
Third, you also fail to account for the environmental risks that can occur in a salvage situation. Say the boat was heeled over because the owner was an idiot and neglected to put out an anchor to keep it from getting washed further aground. Say the boat heeled and the fuel tank started to drain out the fuel vent? Now, you have a film of diesel over the surface of the water—which the USCG can fine the boatowner up to $800,000 IIRC.
If the salvage company's actions could prevent the diesel fuel spill, wouldn't it be worth paying the salvage company a fraction of that amount of money??

I like the current model more than the upcoming model so called pics.
If you look at the spy photo's the entire front end resembled a ford or lincoln SUV. I'm hoping i'm wrong but I guess we won't know for sure how it looks for a few more months.
Cant wait to see the new beast!
Very pretty! Congratulations!
Based on their rendering it does look like a big Ford Flex. Lets hope there guess is way off !Quote:

The location of our wireless router is at one corner of the bottom floor, the bedroom I sleep in is at the opposite corner of the second floor. Reception from A to B is almost nil.

Tonight I tried to do some Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) in Windows Vista. Unfortunately, when I click on the box that says 'Enable ICS' it sits for a minute or two then says "Internet Connection Sharing could not be enabled because an error occurred." Well, that's the approximate wording, but you get the idea. It won't tell me why it failed.

I dug up the Windows Event Viewer and found the actual error in the system log: unable to configure IPv6 stack! Well, great, I'm not wanting to use IPv6 so maybe I can just disable it. But after much trial and error, it seems that I cannot figure out how to do so in Vista. I disabled the various protocols on the network adapter, disabled "6to4 mapping", disabled various routing things, rebooted a few times, and have continued to fail completely.

I finally gave up on getting it to work, ran a 50 foot network cable across the floor through the living room and main walkway. Certainly not a good option, but I suppose in the end that's easier than dealing with Windows. Oh well.

Queensland cricketer Chris Lynn could be in hot water with Cricket Australia after using Twitter to launch a scathing attack against the woman who claims she was assaulted by South Sydney's Ben Te'o.
Lynn's outburst came on the same evening that Australian opener David Warner was fined $5750 for a breach of the CA code of behaviour over a Twitter outburst against journalists.
Brisbane woman Katie Lewis told Channel Nine in an interview aired on Wednesday night that she had suffered a fractured eye socket after being struck in the face by Te'o at the Brisbane home of Broncos player Corey Norman last month.
Te'o released a statement before the interview went to air, saying he had "found himself in unfortunate circumstances that were not caused by me and I acted appropriately to deal with a difficult situation."
The NRL's integrity unit has begun an investigation into the night in question, where Newcastle's Darius Boyd was also understood to be present.
Queensland batsman Lynn thrust himself into the scandal on Twitter on Wednesday night. He has since deleted the tweets but CA and Queensland Cricket have been made aware of them.
"The girl accusing Ben Teo is bad news," Lynn tweeted.
He then agreed with a response from another Twitter user who said "She should serve 2 months in jail for her make up! #booyah". Lynn replied: "She definately (sic) should!".
Lynn went on with a third post: "it does my head in ..."
And Broncos fullback Norman has used his Facebook page to give his backing to Te'o.
Norman has been cleared by police and after conducting investigations of their own, Brisbane is convinced he has no case to answer.
"I stand by Ben 100%. That's all I have to say on the matter. Not going to answer questions about the incident, looking forward to this week against the doggies," Norman wrote.
He posted Brisbane's official statement, prefaced with: "Before anyone opens their mouth and post or inbox insults or opinions.... read this!!. First and last time this issue is being spoken about on the page.
"Not going to tolerate abuse on here."

I have a deck that is approx (31'x22') that is going DIRECTLY onto a sloped hill. The hill is approx 45 degrees and the entire deck will sit on this slope. The slope itself is approx 12' elevation change from where the other footers will be. It is a free standing deck.
I thought the best way to do this would be to excavate and build a retaining wall and cantilever the last 3'. What do you think?
I dont think stepped footers will be effective since the huge elevation change and that the entire deck is sitting on this sloped area. Would you do stepped footings? Excavate than dig down? Or dig approx 7' down? I have read that as long as you stand off approx 4 feet from the point the slope begins you should dig down 7' for a decent footing. Is this correct?

Dependable Ninety Two Furnace (LED solid)
Hi there I have a Dependable Ninety Two furnace that has a B18099-13 control board. It was working fine before i removed it to clean it, now the red LED comes on solid and doesn't sequence at all. I mad sure that the main limit was met, I made sure the ROS were met, I made sure that the volage in was 120v and the control volatge was 24 (actually 28v). The light comes on and the main blower comes on right away (on high) and it doesn't start its sequencing. Do you have any suggestions? Or is the board fried?
Ontario, Canada
there is an extra limit control ( that is actually a Goodman furnace) on the bottom or back of the blower or under the deck by the blower somewhere which you must have damaged or moved. open limit causes the fan to run instantly and Goodman is slightly different as they put them in series with the gas valve. you may also have a poor electrical connection to the board with one of those white molex jack plug connectors. may have to redo them and check the pins with a magnifying glass to see if one got pushed back.
I will check right now for an auxiliary limit switch.... be right back
Is it possible that I do not have an auxiliary limit switch on bottom of blower? I cannot find one, nor is it in the schematic...
depends on the particular model of furnace but some of them it was stuck in the metal deck before the blower. just have to trace the wires and find it. your model may not have one but some did. could not pull the blower out w/o removing it and it had some cheezy spring clip holding it in.
Would there be any other reason to get a solid LED?
Would a faulty Stack overtemp switch be a cause?
usually a solid led means that the power is on and OK, some brands have a slow heartbeat flash instead. if an error occurs then it has to flash a code and that should be listed on the wiring diagram or a sticker on the back of one of the doors. not sure what you got going there and Goodman has several versions of that furnace. there may be rollout switches on the side of the burner box and I believe Goodman puts all their limits in series with the gas valve and the error codes may not always show up. not dangerous but different than other brands. I changed that board on my neighbors unit last year and it was 8 yrs old. may be shot now that you disturbed it.
Thanks Yuri,
I appreciate your time Sir

UPDATE: RBC Upgrades Seagate, Sees It As "Attractive" Buy
In a report published Friday, RBC Capital Markets analyst Amit Daryanani upgraded Seagate Technology (NASDAQ: STX) from Sector Perform to Outperform and raised the price target from $59.00 to $60.00.
Daryanani noted that many factors could benefit Segate including the EPS tailwind from OPEX reverting, capital allocation, and benefits from enterprise demand. The analyst wrote that the current valuation is very attractive and [we] "we think the current valuation is extremely attractive and recommend investors build/ add to positions ahead of multiple catalysts in H2:14."
RBC commented, "We believe Seagate remains well equipped to weather the volatility of the disk drive industry, where survival requires a delicate balance between near-term profitability and long- term share position. The company has assembled a broad portfolio of disk drive solutions, spanning capacities, form factors, and rotational velocities. Taken in combination with its vertically integrated manufacturing strategy, Seagate can flexibly and efficiently address the vast majority of existing and emerging applications in the enterprise, desktop, mobile, and consumer electronics segments."
Shares of Seagate Technology closed at $50.02 on Thursday and are currently trading up 1.78% at $50.91.

Thailand's junta detains anti-coup leader
By Anusak KONGLANG Friday, June 6, 2014, 2:24 pm TWN
BANGKOK - Thailand's junta said Friday that it had captured a fugitive anti-coup leader facing possible imprisonment, as the ruling generals seek to stamp out any criticism of their seizure of power.
Sombat Boonngamanong, who spearheaded an online campaign to stage illegal flashmob rallies against the military takeover, was arrested late Thursday in Chonburi province southeast of Bangkok, army spokeswoman Sirichan Ngathong said.
"We have a team who tracked him through the Internet," she told AFP.
"He faces initial charges of violating an order to report to the junta," she said, an offence that carries a possible punishment of two years in prison.
Sombat was one of several hundred people -- including politicians, activists, academics and journalists -- summoned by the military following its May 22 coup.
Those who attended were detained in secret locations for up to a week and ordered to cease political activities.
Sombat, a prominent pro-democracy activist, refused to turn himself in, instead posting a message on Facebook saying: "Catch me if you can".
Since then he has urged followers to stage peaceful public demonstrations, flashing the three-finger salute from "The Hunger Games" films that has become a symbol of defiance against the junta.
A second military official said Sombat would be detained at an army facility for up to one week.
"During that time the military will question him on his movements, behaviour and his incitement," said the official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Sombat would then face further interrogation by the police and appear before a military court, he added.
The activist is the leader of a faction of the "Red Shirts" movement, which broadly supports fugitive former premier Thaksin Shinawatra and his sister Yingluck, who was deposed as prime minister last month.
Ministers detained
A minister in Yingluck's ousted cabinet who also refused to answer the summons was detained by soldiers in a dramatic swoop on a press conference late last month, and faces trial in a military court.
If convicted, ex-education minister Chaturon Chaisang could be imprisoned. He had used a press conference to criticise the coup minutes before being arrested.
Chaturon was due to appear in court on Friday for a second remand hearing.
Yingluck was herself summoned and held temporarily at an undisclosed location after the coup.
The junta says she has since been released and allowed to return home although she remains under military supervision and has not been seen in public since.
Yingluck had faced nearly seven months of mass opposition protests leading up to the coup. Shootings and grenade attacks linked to the rallies left 28 people dead and hundreds wounded, including many opposition demonstrators.
The junta has imposed martial law, media censorship and a night-time curfew as part of what it says is an attempt to end years of political turmoil.
It mounted a show of military strength over the weekend, deploying soldiers to deter small but defiant anti-coup rallies that popped up outside shopping malls and near train stations in Bangkok.

BBK Mass Air Sensor
So I just bought a bbk MAF sensor but I was so stupid i bought the factory calibrated one, and I need a cold air calibration maf sensor. Is there really a difference between the factory intake and cold air calibration?? I mean the oem maf sensor works the same with the factory or an cold air intake... What should I do?

send it back and get them to send you the calibrated one. as far as if it would affect it?? possibly
post #3 of 4 Old November 4th, 2009, 11:43 AM
what are your mods? If the maf is the only thing you have done mod wise then its not going to be noticeable anyways so its not going to matter. its basically just a factory replacement - not going to help HP wise....even if its the one calibrated for CAI
People should think about boarding up their glass house before starting a rock fight!

New York, March 05, 2014 -- Moody's Investors Service (Moody's) downgraded Forest Oil Corporation's
(Forest) Corporate Family Rating (CFR) to B3 from B2 and its senior unsecured
notes rating to Caa1 from B3. Moody's affirmed Forest's
SGL-3 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating. The outlook remains
"Drilling results in Forest's Eagle Ford Shale are short of expectations,
which we previously stated could be a catalyst for a downgrade,"
commented Andrew Brooks, Moody's Vice President. "The reallocation
of capital away from the Eagle Ford will result in lower oil production
than we had previously anticipated, leading to reduced cash flow
and higher leverage. Lower projected EBITDA is expected to pressure
the leverage covenant under Forest's secured revolving credit facility,
which will require relief from its banks."
Ratings downgraded:
..Corporate Family Rating, downgraded to B3
..Probability of Default Rating, downgraded to B3-PD
..Senior Unsecured Notes Rating, downgraded to Caa1
Ratings affirmed:
..Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating, affirmed at
..Outlook, maintained at negative
LGD revision:
...Senior Unsecured LGD to LGD4 - 67%
from LGD4 - 66%
Forest's B3 CFR reflects its diminished scale following the dramatic downsizing
it has evidenced through a series of major asset sales, which while
generating funds for a substantial reduction in debt, leaves the
company much smaller in size and with less flexibility with which to stabilize
its operations and restore growth. Forest's projected increase
in oil production through its joint venture in the Eagle Ford Shale will
fall short in 2014, resulting in an increased reliance on its gassier
and lower margin Ark-La-Tex assets. The company's
initial capital budget estimate for 2014 allocates roughly $230
million to the Eagle Ford but as well results disappointed, the
company lowered the capital allocation to $100 million, with
the balance shifted to Ark-La-Tex. This re-allocation
of capital will further delay the company's already protracted attempts
to increase higher margin oil production and enhance its EBITDA.
Forest anticipates that natural gas will comprise 65% of 2014's
production and NGLs another 15%, largely unchanged from prior
In an effort to address its over-levered balance sheet, Forest
embarked on an asset sale program that generated $1.5 billion
in proceeds, reducing total debt by about $1.1 billion
since mid-2012. With 2013's sale of its Panhandle assets,
which represented about half of the company's hydrocarbon production,
the four-year downward trajectory in proved reserves and production
accelerated. While debt has been reduced materially, production
declines have out-paced debt reduction, prompting relative
leverage measures to climb. At December 31, debt of $800
million was over $44,000 per Boe of pro forma average daily
production, and debt on proved developed reserves was around $12
per Boe. Moody's does not see improvement in these leverage
metrics in 2014.
Forest's SGL-3 Speculative Grade Liquidity Rating reflects our
expectation of adequate liquidity through 2014, notwithstanding
the likely need for covenant relief, which we assume will be forthcoming
from Forest's banks. We expect Forest's capital budget of
$290-$310 million to result in a cash flow deficit
approximating $150 million in 2014, a portion of which will
be funded by $67 million of residual cash proceeds from the Panhandle
asset sale. At December 31, Forest had an undrawn $400
million secured borrowing base revolving credit facility, although
we assume the borrowing base will likely be reduced in conjunction with
bank negotiations over covenant relief. The revolver includes a
leverage covenant limiting debt/EBITDA to 5x through March 2014 before
tightening to 4.75x in 2014's second quarter and 4.5x at
June 30. While the company's cash balance should be sufficient
to fund Forest's negative free cash flow through mid-year,
without covenant relief Forest's ability to access the revolver
to cover its liquidity needs during the second half of 2014 would be severely
restricted. The revolver is secured by a mortgage and security
interest in Forest's proved oil and gas properties and related assets;
we view Forest's alternate sources of liquidity as weak.
The negative outlook reflects the execution risk related to Forest's ability
to grow production and generate improved margins and cash flow sufficient
to reduce relative debt leverage from elevated levels. If Forest
can grow production to above 20,000 Boe per day, restoring
growth to its Eagle Ford production while maintaining debt to average
daily production around $40,000 per Boe, the outlook
could be stabilized.
A downgrade would be likely should Forest fail to negotiate covenant relief
on its revolving credit facility. Moody's envisions a failure
on this front would result in additional asset sales to fund the projected
spending gap, or a significant spending reduction, resulting
in further downsizing of the company's operations and higher leverage.
A downgrade could also be considered if Forest fails to maintain a ratio
of Retained Cash Flow/debt over 10%, if it fails to execute
on its development program in the Ark-La-Tex, should
it be unable to restore profitable growth from its Eagle Ford holdings
or should debt on production deteriorate beyond $50,000 per
An upgrade is unlikely over the next year but would be considered if Forest's
production grows to 30,000 Boe per day with debt to average daily
production approaching $30,000 on a sustainable basis.
The Caa1 rating on the senior unsecured notes reflects the subordination
of the senior unsecured notes to Forest's $400 million secured
revolving credit facility's priority claim to the company's assets.
The size of the claims relative to Forest's outstanding senior unsecured
notes results in the notes being rated one notch below the B3 CFR under
Moody's Loss Given Default Methodology.
The principal methodology used in this rating was the Global Independent
Exploration and Production Industry published in December 2011.
Other methodologies used include Loss Given Default for Speculative-Grade
Non-Financial Companies in the U.S., Canada
and EMEA published in June 2009. Please see the Credit Policy page
