Kinder Morgan's Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project is facing a barrage of new questions from municipal, provincial and state governments.
Several government bodies have filed requests to the National Energy Board for more information about the $5.4-billion project to triple the capacity of an existing pipeline between Edmonton and Burnaby, B.C.
Trans Mountain Pipeline ULC, which is operated by Kinder Morgan Canada and owned by Kinder Morgan Energy Partners, L.P, filed a detailed pipeline application with the NEB in December. Monday was the deadline for intervenors to file written questions in response.
Mary Polak, the B.C. Environment Minister, said the questions her government posed span just about every aspect of the project, both the land-based pipeline and the shipment of oil by tanker through Vancouver harbour and southern Georgia Strait.
"Our staff have identified gaps in information, places where they don't believe the information from Kinder Morgan is complete or gives us sufficient information to determine whether or not we can support the project," she said.
Ms. Polak said the provincial objective is to uphold B.C.'s five conditions for pipeline approval that were established in response to Enbridge Inc.'s proposed Northern Gateway project. That project has been processed by the NEB and is awaiting a federal cabinet decision.
B.C.'s five points require successful completion of an environmental review, world-leading plans for response to and prevention of spills in water and on land, First Nations involvement, and a fair share of economic benefits for the province.
Ms. Polak said the demands B.C. made of Enbridge, and the tough questions now being put to Trans Mountain, do not signal provincial opposition to the projects.
"Most British Columbians I have heard from are expressing concerns about what might happen if there are not sufficient safeguards . . . They aren't necessarily against pipelines point blank," she said. "Our five conditions require they have those safeguards in place and we won't support any heavy oil pipeline through British Columbia unless it meets those five conditions."
Among other things, B.C. asks for "a full record of all spills from Kinder Morgan pipelines, including the [Trans Mountain] system, involving liquid hydrocarbons over the past 30 years."
B.C. also asks Trans Mountain to detail its oil spill response times, to provide more information on scenarios it has run with simulated spills in rivers, and to explain how the company would clean up heavy oil if it sank in water, rather than floating like lighter crude.
The State of Washington Department of Ecology sought information on the $750-million in spill liability insurance held by Trans Mountain, asking if the company would be liable to the state for natural resource damages and spill response costs.
The District of West Vancouver was also concerned about that issue.
"In the last 30 years, how many times has an insurer denied coverage for a Trans Mountain or Kinder Morgan client?" asked the district. "What would happen if the insurance company became insolvent or was otherwise unable to meet its contractual obligations?"
The District of North Vancouver sought information "on the earthquake vulnerability" of the marine terminal and wanted to know if there is an evacuation plan "in the event of the worst-case scenario of a fire and/or explosion of flammable material in the Burnaby tank farm."
Scott Stoness, vice-president of regulatory for Kinder Morgan Canada, said in an e-mail that the company has received thousands of information requests from intervenors who have posed many questions to the NEB. "We are in the process of reviewing these questions with a goal of having answers submitted to the NEB by the June 4 deadline," he said.Report Typo/Error

This is a discussion on Small issue with my Remora within the Defensive Carry Holsters & Carry Options forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; Originally Posted by RKM I think the Remora is a great grab-and-go holster, but I wouldn't be using it as a primary holster. I have ...
The Remora can be a handy tool within its limitations but I think anyone who doesn't want to wear a belt ought to question whether or not he really wants to carry a gun at waist level.
-It is a seriously scary thought that there are subsets of American society that think being intellectual is a BAD thing...
Easy on, easy off, good construction, stays put yet remains 'adjustable'. I've used Remoras and Sticky and I find them to be great holsters for many conditions.
In my experience, the holster stays in the same place, but my pants start to shift a little and need to be adjusted. For me at least, it's that my pants start to slip down making the Remora feel like it's riding up, so I hike up my drawers and everything seems to be fine.
Regardless of what holster rig I'm wearing, I find myself from time to time having to adjust my pants, so it doesn't seem like a holster concern to me. JMHO.
Of course I could probably fix all of this by losing 50 - 60 pounds.
I'm in favor of gun control -- I think every citizen should have control of a gun.
1 Thess. 5:16-18
In order to lay the whole belt/no belt issue to rest I emailed Alan at Remora and asked him if the holster can be used without a belt. Here is his response:
"It can be however there is a certain amount of compression from the waist band required to retain the holster and hand gun."
I have both the Remora and The Sticky Holster and haven't had a problem with either moving around. I do find the sticky holster a bit more comfortable.
Wear tighter pants :D
I'm female and with most of my jeans (not super tight) and a belt, mine stays in place. I've even worn it with sweat pants and dress pants, although that wasn't as stable.
Why is this an issue ? I have both Sticky and Remora for multiple handguns. They work extremely well when used as designed for. They stay put, and are comfortable and conceal really nice. Follow the instructions and have a safe, all day, iwb holster that is comfortable. Why try to make it so hard ??

Must be a slow day at the office, and these guys still drinking Jolt Cola! I think the principals in K&L Gates, as well as the drafter and signer of this letter, should collectively stick their heads in a toilet and flush. I am sure they would all fit at once, since you have to have a very tiny head to think this is gonna fly. I smell fear and desperation coming from Sun– to say nothing of some very geeky body odor. If it were me, I would counter-sue for malicious litigation.

Looks very interesting. Definitely makes the SKS more manageable.
Be sure to check their "Compliancy" page. Especially the linked letter from the BATFE. It seems a few parts on the SKS must be replaced with U.S.-made parts to remain legal under the Gun Control Act of 1968. The number of parts t be replaced varies depending on the model and country of origin.

1. Six steps to energy efficiency in pneumatic systems
By reevaluating system requirements and determining the right components to use, plants can save money and increase productivity.
2. Schneider Electric accelerates its transformation
Oil and gas, data center markets are core growth areas, says new North American CEO Laurent Vernerey
3. What if some machines still use Microsoft Windows XP after support ends April 8?
Ask Control Engineering blog: After April 8, Microsoft support for Windows XP ends. If you're still using it on April 9, there are extra precautions.
4. Contract maintenance: 5 ways to keep things humming in a cost-effective model
With manpower in high demand, fewer highly qualified personnel are available in the labor pool. More and more operators recognize the value of a resident maintenance program, offering guaranteed uptime, guaranteed staffing, and limitless access to OEM engineers and support staff.
5. Improving PPE usage important to ensure manufacturing safety
A lack of consistent or proper use of PPE leads to injuries and changing best practices and the culture are key to reducing these potential injuries

Best Uses
Have had this wallet for over 2 years now. Bought it mainly for the zip-around feature. Love being able to toss my wallet into a bag and not have the credit cards come flying out! Originally owned the Duluth Trading nylon zip-around wallet but the zipper broke on 2 of them. This Fire Hose version seems much sturdier. Looks like this one will last a good deal longer. I'm happy with it.
Best Uses
My husband loves this wallet. Just what he was looking for.
Best Uses
This wallet is awesome. I would recommend this wallet to anybody my dad has one after He saw how good it is is the most durable wallet I have ever owned
Bought one some time ago to replace the one I bought years ago, not the same product Returned it.
The new model is a lighter material not as durable as the old one which was ballistic nylon.
Who needs leather trim, its a wallet, it lives in your pocket, no one sees it, why add extra cost for no purpose? Used to be Duluth was about practicality, now its all image.
Design was changed so no transparent window for driving licence/ID so every time you use a credit card you ave to pull out & replace the ID instead of showing in situ.
This is about the fifth good product that Duluth has either re-designed or simply stopped selling,
Best Uses
Have tried other wallets, including another model made by Duluth Trading. Mine is now about 2 years old and is holding up very well...no signs of wear really. From my experience, the weak-link is usually the zipper. This zipper seems to be not too flimsy and not too bulky. I like the canvas material and the dark leather trim. The number of pockets is just right for me. Nothing extra or unnecessary. Not exactly small, but not too large either. Like the idea of NOT having a coin purse, which many wallets of this type still have. Fits well in my back pants pocket. A little bulky if I try to carry it in my front pants pocket.
Have received many compliments on it's functionality and the fact that my credit cards are secure no matter where I toss this wallet. That's the most important thing for me.

I don't know where to post this really.
Question: I just got a gun with a black matte appearance. I think it needs cleaning. Does anyone know if there is a polish, protectant that works great on guns which are blued, or have a non reflective finish?
Also wonder what works great on polymers. First time I have had a gun like this in a while. I am used to Stainless.
All ideas are appreciated.
The Price of Freedom is Eternal Vigilance
First off
Well I imagine protection is of most importance, aesthetics second.
I think you might well try ''Boeshield'' which leaves a sorta thin wax film and will improve luster etc on blued and other black type finishes. Some folks even use straight Carnauba wax.
That said - while not as persistent - a good wipe over with a CLP impregnated cloth is quick and easy and will do well if repeated when needed.
Don't overdo treatments on polymer in case any silicones in them and then some slipperiness might be noticed.

Officer-Involved Shooting Wounds Drug Suspect
A suspected drug dealer was shot in Richland County when deputies say he tried to run over an officer with his car.
It happened Tuesday in the St. Andrews area near Marley and Broad River roads.
Sheriff Leon Lott says 21-year-old Ty-meek Payne had been under surveillance because he was suspected of selling drugs to students in school.
Lott says officers believed Payne had drugs in his car and tried to stop him for questioning but he drove off, reportedly throwing baggies of marijuana out of his car as he fled.
At one point when deputies caught up with him, the sheriff says Payne tried to run over one of the officers.
A deputy fired several shots at the vehicle, striking Payne in the arm, and he was later apprehended on Briargate Circle and taken to a hospital.
Lott says the officer was justified in the shooting because of the threat from the suspect, who faces charges of attempted murder and possession of marijuana.

Just understand, I am not advocating that anyone run full E85 in a non flex fuel vehicle. That WILL create problems with your system. I am only suggesting a 20-30% blend,
You are correct that the ECU makes very quick adjustments to the fuel/air mixture. What happens with the ethanol is that it sees it as a lean mixture due to the higher oxygenating effect of the ethanol. The computer makes big adjustments to compensate for a lean mixture, hence the possible drop initially. Then the ECU makes much smaller adjustments over time to get to a balance. That is why you may initially see a drop but it will stabilize after a tank or two when it sees this as the new normal. The ECU does learn or driving habits and compensates accordingly.
I will drop the subject at this post. I know I am in a small minority of people who have long experience with ethanol.
Tom wasn't trying to cast you out here. He was just merely stating the fact that he has seen performance runs on a dyno when people are using E85. I know a few people who have ran E85 also. They get mixed results varying on where and when they get it. Just because you have some experience on it does not make you an expert on it by any means. As Tom and I have said before, there really is no regulation on E85. That means you can have an octane rating of 102 one day then the next delivery will be down around 82 octane. The only thing I would suggest to someone is to read up and learn as much as you can about E85 before even attempting to use it.

Work and Income shooting suspect arrested
Related Links

Police have arrested a man in connection with a double fatal shooting in Ashburton after a tip-off from a farmer.
They had been searching for Russell John Tully, 48, since the shooting at a Work and Income office in the town this morning.
Tully was found on a rural property south east of Ashburton.
He was brought down by police dogs and sustained dog bites. Police are still searching for the weapon, thought to be a sawn off shotgun.
He was brought back to the Ashburton police station for a medical examination. No charges have yet been laid.
Police found him on the property after two sightings. They sent a helicopter and dog patrol to the area and found Tully.
''This is a huge relief,'' Superintendent Gary Knowles said.
Farmer Dan White, 33, said he was in his ute on his way to move a mob of sheep when he was confronted with the alleged gunman walking toward him through a paddock.
"My heart leapt out of my chest," White said this evening at his property on Terrace Rd, south of Ashburton.
"He knew I'd seen him, and I knew I'd seen him, but I just didn't make a big deal out of it,'' he said of the incident which happened about 2.45pm.
"I just carried on as if I didn't know what was going on, called the police straight away and was talking to them as I drove off down the road."
Police cordoned the area and arrested Tully about 5.30pm. His bike could be seen lying on the road next to a gate which appeared to have been rammed open.
White suspected the alleged gunman had been hiding in a hedge.
Asked how he knew it was the gunman, White said he'd Googled the shooting at lunchtime so "I knew what I was looking for".
"I've been looking over my shoulder all day.
"How many people come walking through your property dressed in camo gear? He was wearing a green shirt ... had a woolly hat on and he was carrying his bike.
"He had a backpack on and he fitted the description. [He looked] just like a guy who'd been hunting," he said, although he did not see any weapon.
Police had thanked him for alerting them about the alleged gunman.
Police had launched a search after a shooting that killed two and injured a third at the Ashburton Work and Income Office on the corner of Cass and Moore streets.
A balaclava-clad man carrying a sawn-off shotgun entered the office and fired several shots before fleeing on a bike.
Police warned the public to stay indoors and to not approach the man. Schools were also put in lockdown.
Earlier armed police stormed an empty Ashburton property during their search.
They had surrounded the Willow St property just before 2.30pm and yelled at the occupants to come out.
After entering the house about 3pm, police called out: "It's all clear."
Paul Meek, 54, watched the police storm the property from his nearby home.
"All of a sudden there were police everywhere," he said.
"They went in pretty quick."
Meek heard the explosion as police let off a smoke grenade, then bangs as police rammed the door.
"It was certainly a false alarm," he said.
Meek was nervous knowing there was "a gunman on the loose".
"It's not me I'm worried about, it's the poor people who have died. Hopefully they catch him soon."

The Ashburton Guardian said a witness saw a man wearing a black balaclava enter and shoot two women, one of whom was interviewing him at the time.
The man believed they were both Work and Income staff members.
"It was incredibly loud, I could feel the air whoosh past my head," the man told the Guardian.
He followed the man outside.
"He must have broken the gun down because he put it in his back pack," the witness said.
A woman, also believed to be a staff member, ran out and shouted at them to call the police, before running into the nearby medical centre, the Guardian reported.
They said the man's bike had been chained up on a street corner.
He headed east on Moore Street, leaving his bike helmet on the street. A postie at a business across the road heard the man screaming and swearing as he left the building.
Throughout the day, residents reacted to the police hunt. Some were escorted to cars by friends - too scared to venture onto the street alone.
Carol Ward and her daughter Sarah said they knew one of the women killed in this morning's shooting.
"She's a very nice lady - she's very firm in the job that she does. It's a loss to the welfare system," Carol Ward said.
"She's been in there many years."
The shooting brought back horrible memories of the murder of Kirsty Bentley.
"It's the helicopters," she said
"I'm actually quite shocked that it's happened here again," Sarah Ward said.
"It brought me to tears that some man could take it upon himself to take his revenge out on her. She's the type of person who you actually request to see."
Chalmers Ave resident Wayne Williams said this morning' events would rock the town to its core.
"He's homeless. Where did he get a shotgun from?" Williams said.
Some elderly residents on the street were too scared to come out of their houses.
He feared the gunman could emerge after dark and try to hide in people's sheds or garages.
"If they [the police] don't pick him up soon I don't think anyone along here will be sleeping tonight."
Ashburton Distrcit Mayor Angus McKay said he felt "weak at the knees" when he heard what had happened.
He was unaware yet if he knew the the people killed.
"Ashburton is not this kind of town," he said.
Ministry of Social Development chief executive Brendan Boyle said all Canterbury Work and Income offices, including Timaru, have been closed until further notice following this morning's shooting.
Former MP Sue Bradford has been slammed for using the Ashburton shooting, which left two dead and a third seriously injured, as an excuse for political "point scoring".
Shocking news coming in of Work & Income shooting: awful, but a risk when office becomes front for brutal policies http://t.co/kjjLCa8NLp
— Sue Bradford (@suebr) August 31, 2014
She was immediately criticised with one person saying: "not something to be made into petty point scoring Sue. Especially when we don't know the circumstances."

BOSTON, Mass.
For the second consecutive year, the University of Tennessee women's rowing team brought home the gold in the club eights race at the prestigious Head of the Charles regatta.
The victorious Lady Vol team of Lizzie Brown (cox), Marissa Allen, McKenzie Craig, Dana Forbes, Chelsea Pemberton, Melissa DiCerbo, Claire Newton, Mary Gruzalski and Jessica Shreder covered the three-mile course on the Charles River in a time of 17:07.64, over five seconds ahead of second-place Riverside Boat Club. Last year, Tennessee's winning club 8+ squad finished the race in 17:31.82 to edge out Cincinnati by less that a second. Because entry regulations for the club 8+ state that no athlete may row in the race after having won the event, all nine members of the UT shell that finished at the top of the 59-team field on Saturday were newcomers to the event.
Competition will conclude at the Head of the Charles on Sunday as Kacey Montgomery, Kaitlin Bargreen, Kay Logan, Kelly Kraiss, Sally BeVille and Amy McIntosh, each a member of UT's victorious club 8+ team last year, take to the water with Nicole Bold, Lauren Wells and Eriz Artz (cox) in the championships 8+ race. Racing will be particularly competitive in the championships eights, as the Lady Vols will face 46 teams including universities across the country and the U.S. Rowing national team.
Several Tennessee boats also enjoyed success on Saturday back in Knoxville at the Head of the Tennessee regatta. The Lady Vol championships 4+ shell of Jovanna Vick (cox), Kelly Kravitz, Lindsay Jones, Andrea Bagwell and Ariana Fitzgerald conquered a 15-team field to win the race. The squad's time of 19:16.52 over the 5000-meter course outpaced second-place Murray State by over eight seconds.
In the collegiate novice 8+ event also at the Head of the Tennessee, UT boats claimed the second and fourth positions in an 18-team field. The Lady Vol boat comprised of Jessica Dainty (cox), Jennifer Sowers, Diane Samu, Beth Schwartz, Caitlyn Cleary, Anna Casey, Whitney Tehan, Andrea Searby and Allison Remington crossed the finish line in 19:04.65 the record the second-place finish.
The Lady Vols wrap up their fall schedule at the Head of the Chattahoochee on Saturday, Nov. 2, on Lake Lanier in Gainesville, Ga., which will serve as the host site for the NCAA Championships, May 30-June 2, 2003.

A pre-finals settlement between Essendon and the AFL remained on the table on Tuesday night, despite the Bombers seeking and receiving an adjournment from the AFL Commission hearing on Monday.
The 2013 finals series could still go ahead without the Bombers, despite the club's defiant stance it would fight any punishment from the AFL.
Fairfax Media can reveal the AFL Commission held secret talks in Melbourne on Monday as it sought to clarify key elements of the Essendon charges and the club's situation.
It is also understood Essendon chairman Paul Little has remained in talks with AFL executive Gillon McLachlan over the past two days, with Little taking a measured approach to the club's predicament.
The stumbling block remains the club's refusal to accept that it oversaw a program that allowed illegal drugs to be administered to its players. Essendon remains adamant it will not accept any sanction that linked the club to drug cheating. The stripping of points, according to the Bombers, would be tantamount to suggestions of doping.
The AFL refused to comment on Monday's unscheduled Commission meeting, but Fairfax Media believes several meetings relating to the Essendon scandal have been held as the saga has unfolded.
Coach James Hird, who also faces serious charges under the conduct unbecoming rules, appears determined to extend his battle to clear his name. But a divergence of legal paths between the club and the four individuals charged - Hird, assistant coach Mark Thompson, club doctor Bruce Reid and football manager Danny Corcoran - has emerged as a genuine prospect, with Little prioritising the club's sanctions ahead of his key staffers. Hird remains unwilling to negotiate with the AFL.
In a separate development, Kevin Sheedy has confirmed he was in Melbourne last week and ''spoke to Essendon people''. He added he expected to meet chairman Paul Little ''at some stage''.
Little said before addressing players and their families on Tuesday night that the matter could potentially now drag beyond September. ''I think our legal team have sought an adjournment today from next Monday. We believe that we haven't been given the information that we required in relation to who will appear to support the charges. There are some procedural issues that are still outstanding for us, so we requested an adjournment."
Regarding the finals deadline, he added: ''I think if the AFL give us the time that we need to prepare for this, there is little chance of it being finalised before the finals."
But it is understood there are divisions within the club and also among Essendon directors over Little's desire to settle the matter with the AFL.
Fairfax Media believes some directors, led by Little, remain open to seeking a resolution with the AFL before the 2013 finals. Not playing finals this year along with a seven-figure fine and draft penalties are possible AFL sanctions.
Little and some advisers remain fearful of the protracted dispute spilling into 2014. Not only are senior Bombers concerned about the ongoing damage to Essendon's brand but also the significant strain on club finances and the potential ramifications for membership and sponsorship.
While Essendon remains united in its determination to force the AFL to identify its witnesses and further evidence before any hearing, uncertainty prevailed on Tuesday night over how to manage Hird and his lieutenants. Some directors remained concerned Hird and his senior staffers could become collateral damage as the result of a resolution with the AFL.
Little understands the Bombers are likely to receive some softening of penalties should his team bring the case to a close before the end of next week

An Apollo-Ridge High School student has won an appointment to the U.S. Air Force Academy in Colorado.
Senior Will Duff is to report to the academy on June 27, about three weeks after he graduates. A member of the class of 2017, Duff plans to major in aeronautical engineering and minor in Russian.
Duff, 18, said he applied because he has wanted to be a pilot ever since he was a boy. He added that his grandfather's service in the U.S. Army Air Corps helped spur his interest.
Duff's application was supported by Congressman Mark Critz, D-Johnstown.
At Apollo-Ridge, Duff serves on the student council and is its representative to the school board. He also is a member of the National Honor Society, County Chorus, District Chorus, and the track and field team, among other things.
He has been listed on the honor roll in each of his four years at the high school. He is a varsity letterman in track and field and academics. In addition, was named student of the month by the Apollo Lions Club in December.
He is the son of Bill and Michele Duff, of Kiskiminetas Township.
"It has always been his dream and goal," said Michele Duff. "He takes pride in the honor of his country."

I've recently bought this Creative Sound Card, the good news is that it is working flawless in Windows but for some bizarre reason there is no sound coming from the device when used in XBMC.
I am perfectly able to hear sound in Windows Xp from both Analog and Digital (using fiber optic/toslink cable) output when connected to Receiver capable of DTS and Dolby Digital.
Now the card is detected successfully in Xbmc but there is no sound at all. Im only able to hear sound from builtin soundcard (Intel) using this command.
aplay /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
Can you please help me out with this issue, if you need additional information just lemme know the command and I'll output the result here ... Thanks.
My Goal: Able to passthrough Stereo, DTS and DD (AC3) 5.1 Channel Surround Sound from my Creative PCI Express Card to Receiver using Fiber Optic/Toslink Cable.
PS: I don't care about MP3 playback or whatnot because I got Ipod for that, only my concern is mkv files with 2.0, 5.1(DTS/DD/AC3) passthrough from Creative Sound Card to Audio Receiver.

So if your in NC & want to do a trim swap, let me know. I've done a trim swap on a e46 330ci before & it's not that bad so it' can't be that much different. The fineline is the really dark wood trim.
If you look on Bimmerpost you'll find someone selling their aluminum trim, which they have already swapped out.
I would love to do a swap

One Maryland, One Book
August 17th, 2015
Do you find that when you discuss a book, you get so much more out of it compared to when you read it by yourself? I know that every time I talk about a book over dinner with friends or in the break room at work, I find myself surprised at how I missed something. The other person will have a great point or insight into the plot that I completely overlooked. Reading books by yourself can be great, but when you discuss as a group, there is so much more to learn! In addition to our monthly book discussions, here at the library, we have an additional opportunity coming up for you to delve deep into a book.
One Maryland One Book is an initiative of the Maryland Humanities Council designed to bring people together, across the state, to share in the experience of reading the same book. Every year, they choose a book based on a certain theme and in its eighth year, the selection is: The Boys in the Boat: Nine Americans and Their Epic Quest for Gold at the 1936 Berlin Olympics.
I cannot wait to take part in this discussion with other people from Cecil County. Each person that comes to this book discussion will bring perspective from different walks of life, so I'm sure the conversation will be rich and full of new insights for me. Six of our seven branches are offering book discussions, on different nights, with free books available on a first come, first served basis, while supplies last. You can also download the e-book using OverDrive or the e-audiobook using OneClickDigital.
Will you join the conversation?

Today, over 35 million people worldwide currently live with the condition and this number is expected to double by 2030 and more than triple by 2050 to 115 million. In the UK alone, it currently affects 800,000 people and that number is expected to double in the next 30 years.
Tackling Dementia has been a key priority for the current Government; in 2012 Prime Minister, David Cameron launched the Dementia Challenge – an ambitious programme designed to make a real difference to people with dementia and their carers. Livability is working alongside the Alzheimer's Society help achieve greater community awareness by equipping members of churches and Christian organisations to become dementia friends

The win improved Tech's record to 2-4 on the season and 1-1 in Western Athletic Conference play. The Vandals, meanwhile, dropped to 1-5 on the year and 0-2 in the WAC.
Senior middle linebacker Adrien Cole led the Bulldogs' defense with eight tackles, including four solo, three quarterback hurries and a fumble recovery. The Bulldogs sacked Reader twice – once each by junior defensive tackle Jon'al White and sophomore defensive end I.K. Enemkpali – while Dudley, Jamel Johnson and Quinn Giles each had interceptions.
Giles' pick gave high a team-leading three on the season, while senior cornerback Terry Carter added three more pass breakups to give him a team-high nine on the year.
"I'm so proud of the way the defense played," Tech head coach Sonny Dykes said. "I think they have played well at times this year and today was no exception. I thought we tackled well and did a good job of re-routing their receivers."
Johnson's pick with 8:20 left in the third quarter set up Tech's second touchdown, a 6-yard pass from freshman quarterback Nick Isham to David Gru, capping a seven-play, 55-yard drive. Giles' interception, which came with 10:48 left in the game, set the Bulldogs up deep in Idaho territory with a 24-5 lead and a chance to really put the game away. However, Tech's offense wasn't able to muster much and turned the ball over on downs four plays later.
Although the Bulldogs outgained Idaho offensively, they struggled all game to sustain and finish drives.
Junior kicker Matt Nelson put Tech up 3-0 in the second quarter with a 23-yard field goal. It capped a 16-play drive that covered 75 yards, but the drive stalled at Idaho's 6-yard line. Tech's two offensive touchdown drives averaged only 46.5 yards.
While Isham has been the big-name freshman on Tech's offense all season – and he was an efficient 25 of 39 for 163 yards and a touchdown, with another rushing score, on Saturday – another Bulldog true freshman was the breakout offensive star against Idaho.
Hunter Lee, a walk-on from Flower Mound, Texas, had a workhorse-like effort, toting the ball 28 times for 134 yards. With senior backup running back Ray Holley out for the year and starting tailback Lennon Creer banged up and limited to 52 yards on 12 carries, the Bulldogs needed to look elsewhere for production out of the backfield.
Despite being a standout offensive star in Texas' highest classification, where he accounted for more than 3,400 all-purpose yards and scored 38 touchdowns as a senior, the scholarship offers never came. So Lee walked on with the Bulldogs to play for Dykes and offensive coordinator Tony Franklin, and he found an immediate home as an inside receiver in Tech's spread offense. He caught five passes in five games while playing sparingly in the backfield before being thrust into the spotlight on Saturday.
"I can't say enough about Hunter Lee," Dykes said. "I knew he would be a good player for us. He's a guy that walked on and has learned three positions for us. He did an exceptional job today running the ball. I'm not sure we win today without Hunter Lee."
After Saturday's win, it gets a little more difficult next week when the Bulldogs travel to face freshman QB Chuckie Keeton and the Utah State Aggies, who were a big winner over Wyoming on Saturday to improve to 2-3 on the season.
Tech's offense must become more efficient, as the Bulldogs manage to convert just 3 of 16 third downs in the game and saw numerous drives stall.
Here are some interesting notes from Saturday's game:
Lee truly was a workhorse on Saturday. He averaged 4.8 yards per carry, and his longest rush in the game was 18 yards, which came with just over a minute left in the game and helped seal the win for the Bulldogs
The special-teams star of the game was punter Ryan Allen. Because of the team's offensive struggles, he was asked to punt 10 times. He boomed those punts for a career-high average of 48 yards, including a long of 61 yards. Six of his punts were downed inside Idaho's 20-yard line, including four inside the 10.
The Bulldogs only had one play that went longer than 20 yards – a career-long 34-yard reception by junior receiver Andrew Guillot.
Junior receiver Scott Cathcart, a junior-college transfer, saw his first action of the season against Idaho. He did not record any stats in the game.

Grants to benefit low income residents of Oregon and make lower cost prescription drugs available to all Oregonians.
Attorney General Hardy Myers this week awarded more than $435,000 in grants to two Oregon programs that provide low income Oregonians with assistance in purchasing prescription drugs. The Oregon Primary Care Association (OPCA) of Portland received more than $361,000 and the Oregon Prescription Drug Program (OPDP) of Salem was awarded $75,000 as part of last month's $38.5 million multi-state, settlement agreement with Caremark Rx, LLC (Caremark), one of the nation's largest pharmacy benefits management (PBM) companies.
"We were rewarded twice in this settlement," Myers said. "Not only was the Oregon Department of Justice (DOJ) able to obtain a far-reaching agreement with a nationwide PBM who will now change its business practices but we were able to distribute more than $435,000 to two exciting Oregon programs that will assist the poor in reducing their monthly prescription drug bills." In addition to this grant money, under the settlement, Oregon will receive $1,000,000 to fund consumer protection efforts."
The OPCA's primary members are 26 community health centers that provide medical, dental and mental health services to low income Oregonians throughout the state.
The grant will purchase medications for Oregonians who otherwise could not afford the drugs or for whom purchase would create an "undue hardship." The clinics are eligible under federal law to use the grant money to purchase drugs at extremely low prices.
"These clinics get a significant "bang for the buck " through their program," Myers explained. "DOJ previously awarded OPCA a $300,000 grant as part of another PBM settlement and the clinics were able to purchase drugs for over 36,000 residents. We expect a similar result with this grant."
"The Oregon Primary Care Association is very pleased to have been awarded this grant to help community health centers purchase pharmaceuticals for their most vulnerable patients," said OPCA Executive Director Craig Hostetler. "One of the critical barriers to achieving good health outcomes for these patients is the lack of financial resources to purchase needed pharmaceuticals. This grant will go a long way in helping address that barrier."
The second grant of $75,000 to the OPDP will fund a public education campaign to promote enrollment in its program, which was created by the 2003 Legislature as a way to increase access to prescription drugs for uninsured and underinsured Oregonians. The program was recently expanded so that all Oregonians with inadequate drug insurance are eligible to participate regardless of income. OPDP "pools" the buying power of individual Oregonians to negotiate lower prices for prescription drugs resulting in average discounts of 42 percent. The program currently assists 70,000 Oregonians, about twelve percent of the uninsured population of Oregon.
"Our program is successful today in large part due to DOJ's 2005 grant of more than $100,000 from the Merck/Medco settlement." OPDP Administrator Missy Dolan said. "Now with $75,000 to fund a public education campaign, this program will continue to grow and benefit thousands more Oregonians by giving them access to affordable medications."
Oregon consumers may read more about both programs at their websites at www.orpca.org and www.opdp.org. Consumers wishing to enroll in OPDP should call 1-800-913-4146.
Consumers wanting more information about consumer protection in Oregon may call the Attorney General's consumer hotline at (503) 378-4320 (Salem area only), (503) 229-5576 (Portland area only) or toll-free at 1-877-877-9392, DOJ is online at www.doj.state.or.us.

This is a discussion on Ammo in the garage...in Phoenix within the Defensive Ammunition & Ballistics forums, part of the Defensive Carry Discussions category; I took all of my ammo out of the garage yesterday and brought it into the house after reading a thread about what heat can ...
I took all of my ammo out of the garage yesterday and brought it into the house after reading a thread about what heat can do to ammo. Do you think I ruined my ammo by storing it in such a hot place for these last couple of months?
Send it to me in the 45acp flavor and I will let you know if it's ok. :)
Yeah, I'll get right on it!Originally Posted by tec
In theory sustained heat is not ideal but - for space reasons I have had to store some bulk ammo in my old shed - and that is mega hot most of summer.
Some Wolf and 8mm milsurp was used after two years with no apparent problems. In fact even some old .303 Brit and .308 come to think of it also had to live out there. No failures I can attribute to heat.
If possible tho - store at room temp or cooler, and in the dry - as a more guaranteed method to ensure no degradation.

As P95 said, I would not worry about target/practice ammo, but for defense ammo I would keep it in a more controlled environment.

don't worry about it. the ammo will still go bang, the heat will not kill it.
Thanks for the response guys. I'll be sure to keep my ammo in the house from now on.
Just think of the conditions that Mil-surp ammo can be stored in or exposed to....
I wouldn't worry bout it...
Just keep it locked up so it doesn't get stolen....

Is the 8mm for a Nambu? Just curious. My local gun shop just took one in on trade. It's a 1946 Nambu with the original holster. I was actually thinking about picking it up. I just didn't know if it had any value to it (other than historical.)
Panic - no - just plain old Turk 8mm - the real hot cheap stuff
I use it in my Turk Mauser mostly but also with care in small qty's thru my Hakim. Got 3,400 rounds coupla years back for $125!!!!! hard to resist and almost all go bang! Cheap plinking
Corrosive of course but - like with milsurp .303 thru my Jungle carbine - fire one round = dirty gun to clean - so shoot another 100 or so - make cleaning worthwhile LOL.

You are probably fine. However, I would keep all ammo in a more temperature-stable environment, if possible.

I had a bad experience with ammo stored under heat. In about 1961 I loaded some .30-06 ammo using military cases. The powder was 3031 powder that had been stored in an attic. In 1977 this loaded ammo was stored in another attic and when I got back in 1985 I fired some of this ammunition. It fired well, but I started to notice what appeared to be partial head separations. The load were not high pressure and I could not figure it out at all. Then I got a head separation that blew gas back into my face. I stopped shooting and took a good look at the cartridges. I show blue corrosion marks. I stuck the bullet of a loaded round to loosen it from the case to inspect the powder. The case broke in half. It appears that the poweder had broken down or deteriorated releasing acid like materials resulting in weaking of the bass case. We are talking about many years of heat followed by cold winters.
That sounds like damage from the cases having had mercuric primers fired in them at one time or another.

Plantation, Boh, Bharat
Cameron Highlands is the largest tea-growing region in Malaysia - home to vast plantations of this valuable crop that carpet the valleys in a lush sea of bright green. Tea was also one of the precursors to its development as a hill station, before its transformation into a major tourist destination. Today, the many tea plantations that dominate the valley are instrumental in drawing the multitudes of visitors Cameron Highlands receives each year. The various estates are mostly owned by Boh, the larger group established since 1929 by colonial owners; and Bharat, a slightly more recent local company that only began full-scale operations in the 1950s.
The tea plant (
Camellia sinensis
) is actually a tree rather than a bush as popularly regarded by most people. If left to grow in the wild, tea can grow up to 16m in height. The current method of pruning tea plants leaves them at a manageable size for ground-level harvest, while allowing for higher yield through a more compact arrangement of bushes. The same plant is used to produce different types of tea; each undergo a different oxidation process and blend that result in their unique flavours, aroma and colour. In Cameron Highlands, black tea is the most popular variety of tea produced, followed by Oolong and green tea. The dark tint of tea is the result of its chemical compunds, chiefly being tannin leached into the water by heating.
While tea produced from Cameron Highlands is not particularly exceptional, they make extremely popular products and souvenirs by value of novelty, especially when bought while visiting shops at tea plantations or neighbouring towns. Boh has the largest tea estates, covering a total 3238 hectares, with plantations and factories open to visitors at Habu in Ringlet and Sungai Palas in Brinchang. Bharat has smaller tea fields (total 810 hectares) but more strategic positions along the main road (specifically at Tanah Rata and Kuala Terla) allowing them to capture visitors arriving from the souther (Tapah) and northern (Simpang Pulai) gateway. A large tea plantation also used to exist within Blue Valley, but it was abandoned by its owner and turned into vegetable farms.

As such, the photos on this site are culled from publically viewable images elsewhere, and neither totally pornographic nor of underage people (in other words, nothing illegal).
Basically, we're just having a little fun.

Gay marriage, abortion, women's rights, guns, etc...will never be non-issues for Republicans. It's become too deeply entrenched in the politics. They live for the social issues...that's what gets them the votes because most people ignore fiscal issues unless the economy seems to be doing poorly...and Reps will legislate their version of our morality whenever they are in office.
We already raised the social security age...back in the early 80's, we raised the age to receive full retirement benefits to 67 for folks born after 1960. I don't know how much older you think we can go, considering that poorer folks...the very people who need the benefits...have much lower life expectancy than rich folks and are mostly dead by 67. Or maybe that was your point...to cut benefits for poor folks, but let the rich folks have full benefits.
Pawlenty is a woman hater. Romney is a cult-member (mormon) and America won't be electing a mormon anytime soon. The Rep pool is looking pretty dim.

Michael Owen yesterday denied claims that he is confused by Fabio Capello's England tactics.
Michael Owen – confusion over his after-match comments
Michael tried to undo the confusion when he said yesterday:
"I spoke to reporters after the game on Wednesday and was asked, 'How do you see your role in the team now you've not started two successive games?'" "I said, 'It's a question you'll have to ask the England manager.' That has subsequently been misconstrued in the papers as 'You'll have to ask the manager what my role was when I came on to play'.
There's been headlines like 'Clueless', but of course I knew what my role and responsibility was. I've never been critical about the management or about England.â€
"I have nothing but positive things to say about the new manager. To make it look as if I was criticizing the new manager is totally wrong and very disappointing."
Give the gossip papers any leeway to misconstrue something and we all know they'll only be too happy to do just that. That seems to have been what has happened with Michael's comments after the game.
But Newcastle manager Kevin Keegan also endorsed Owen's stance.
"What's happened with Michael is that, after the game, he's made a statement and someone has twisted it," "Michael's in very good form for us and I thought he'd get a start,"
"You'd have to ask Mr. Capello why he didn't but the media have written it as if Michael's been struggling. Maybe that's one of the reasons – I don't know."
Keegan if nothing else is very supportive of his players and in that way reminds us of Bill Shankly at Liverpool, who Kevin played under of course. Bill's players were always great in Shankly's eyes, and of course they used to go out and prove Bill right every game.   😀
And Kevin doesn't agree at all with suggestions that Owen has lost pace.
"I think the opposite," "But everything I've said has been the opposite of the criticism Michael gets."
"What you should remember is that Michael is 28 years old and he is one of the fittest players I've ever worked with."
We've been very impressed with Kevin Keegan the second time around, even though our results have been disappointing. Kevin is a born leader and even in these difficult times you can see how he is creating great spirit at the club, and it seems like the players are finally beginning to respond to his management and leadership style.
Comments welcome.
