Advice. I wanted to buy a glock. Why I dunno, just because. Anyway the LGS is having a sale on police trade ins. Would you buy one or spend the extra hundred plus tax for a new one?
All depends on the condition of the used gun in question
OEF Veteran
It really does depend on the condition.
My personal observation is that the little buggers retain their value and don't seem to drop below $400. Given that I can get new around $500, I've always bought 'em new.

I have 2 Glocks. I bought 1 used as a police trade in that was factory refurbished and had the pre-ban mags (back when there was a ban). The other I bought new. While I like the one I bought new better, (gen 3 .45 v gen 2 .40), I have had absolutely no issues with the one I bought used. Of course, we don't have the pre-ban issues with mags anymore, so the value equation changes a bit, but I would buy a used Glock again as long as it was the model & generation I wanted.

most Police trade ins have been carried a lot, but not shot all that much. If the Glock only has a little holster wear and is not in too bad shape, then I would consider it.
I defintely would not pay over $350 for a used Police Glock, but I've seen them for $450 and up. In that case, I'd spend the extra money and just get a new one. I bought one of my Glock 19's LNIB for $400....but I know Glocks, and this gun was barely fired. Still had the red grease in the slide that Glock uses.
Give to them according to their deeds and according to the wickedness of their endeavors; give to them according to the work of their hands; render to them their deserts. Psalm 28:4
I would personally buy new for my CCW if it will be EDC. Just for more "prettiness" if that can be had with a Glock.
Overall tey have earned their reliability rep for a reason. Even if they look cosmetically bad, they will still tick like a Timex. That being said I am look at buying an LE trade G17 for my BOB gun.
In short if you dot mid how it looks if it is cosmetically a little blemished...buy it.

I am just as nice as anyone lets me be and can be just as mean as anyone makes me. - Quoted from Terryger, New member to our forum.
I wouldn't have any problems buying a police trade-in. If you think about it, it's probably just getting broken-in. A little holster wear gives a gun some character, as far as I'm concerned. If it's the model you're looking for, go for it...

Injuries deplete NHL goaltender ranks
One by one, top NHL goaltenders are biting the dust. And this time there is no lockout to blame to the high volume of lower-body injuries.
New York Rangers star Henrik Lundqvist is just one example. He has been struggling with an apparent groin muscle strain for some time now.
Veteran back-up Martin Biron faltered as his fill-in – posting a .763 save percentage in two appearances – and then retired after the team waived him. Young Cam Talbot filled in for King Henrik instead.
Lundqvist is expected back in action soon.
"If this would have been a playoff game, he would probably be playing," Rangers coach Alain Vigneault told the New York Daily News. "It's something that's day-to-day that we think we can nip in the bud. It might take one more day, maybe two, but it's something he should be able to turn the page on and you won't hear about it anymore."
King Henrik sounded optimistic after Saturday's skate. "I'm not going to hide it, I definitely want to play Monday," he told reporters. "That's my goal."
Other prominent goaltenders were not as lucky. Here is the roundup:
Cam Ward, Carolina Hurricanes: He could miss the next month after suffering a leg injury at Minnesota. With back-up Anton Khudobin also shelved by a lower-body injury, Justin Peters will start and Mike Murphy will back him up.
Ward suffered a season-ending knee injury last season but had been rounding back into his usual workhorse form.
Pekka Rinne, Nashville Predators: Team management believed he had made a full recovery from his hip surgery. But he didn't. An infection issue will sideline Rinne for at least a month, making Carter Hutton the new No. 1 goaltender and Magnus Hellberg his backup.
"Peks is one of our best players in this room. He's a big part of our success," forward Patric Hornqvist told the Tennessean. "But we have a good backup goalie, and he showed it tonight and he keeps working for the team."
Josh Harding, Minnesota Wild: When starting goaltender Niklas Backstrom suffered a knee injury, Harding jumped in and allowed just eight goals in a nine-game span. Then he suffered a leg injury of his own while allowing his first goal in more than 100 minutes.
That forced Backstrom back into action for the first time in 16 days. "Sitting for a long time on the bench, it's tough to be comfortable out there, but the guys helped me a lot," he told the Minneapolis Star-Tribune.
Tim Thomas, Florida Panthers: First he suffered a groin muscle strain that knocked him out for four games. Then Thomas, 39, returned from that injury only to land on injured reserve with a leg injury. Jacob Markstrom takes over as the starter and veteran Scott Clemmensen is up from the AHL as his backup.
"We're confident that he's not going to be long-term. He's a quick healer," Panthers coach Kevin Dineen told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel. "Unfortunate, but the short-term situation is we'll give (Clemmensen) a call, and goaltending depth is becoming a factor in our season already."
Viktor Fasth, Anaheim Ducks: He has been sidelined with a lower body injury, moving Frederik Andersen into the backup role behind Jonas Hiller. When healthy, Fasth was splitting the duties with Hiller – continuing the trend that started last season.
Cory Schneider, New Jersey Devils: He is supposed to take over for franchise cornerstone Martin Brodeur. But a lower-body injury has interrupted that transition. Keith Kinkaid is up from Albany to take his place.
Schneider's injury is not believed to be serious, so Kinkaid is up on a 48-hour recall under the goalie exemption rule.
"His lower body was bothering him. He should be okay," Devils general manager Lou Lamoriello told NJ.com. "We used the goalie exemption rule. This had nothing to do with who is starting."
Tomas Vokoun, Pittsburgh Penguins: Last spring he took over for Marc-Andre Fleury in the playoffs, after Fleury suffered another postseason meltdown. Vokoun was supposed to press for a bigger role this season, but he will miss the bulk of it due to a blood-clotting condition.

Can anyone share with me the precautions I should take and results I can expect fom this procedure? It would be done in India. Thanks in advance.

Walking to work today, my partner John and I encountered a tree filled with chickadees making a joyful song. They are singing back the spring, calling for a fresh start as the long winter starts to close down. It has the feel of a new year.
And a Tarot reading is a great tool for starting off a new year right. You can, for example:
- reflect on the lessons of the old year / departing winter so you can decide what to leave behind and what to take with you into the future
- take stock of the gifts and challenges that you are currently facing
- bring a problem up for examination and shifting
- set an intention for something new to bring into your life and identify the steps that you need to take to get there
To celebrate the spring, I am running a 20% discount special for the whole month of March. Yes, that would be only $48 for 45 to 60 minutes of looking at one question / one area of your life in a Focus Session or only $68 for 75 to 90 minutes in a Life Overview, Visioning, and Planning Session. You can check out more about how I work and my offerings on my Rates and Services page.
I have a limited number of slots mostly on Wednesday afternoons and evenings and Saturdays so do be in touch before they all fill via e-mail or phone: carolyn [at] artofchangetarot [dot] com / 413-529-9759.
I'm working to create some momentum in my bookings this month as I focus on a goal I set at the actual New Year: to make a pilgrimage to a Celtic land. My highest vision is to spend 2 to 3 weeks in Ireland where my maternal grandparents were born. I actually had my first Tarot reading because a co-worker was doing readings to raise money to fund a trip to visit her spiritual teacher on the west coast. I thought that I was helping her out, but what I got was the gift of Tarot that has been a companion, guide, and playmate ever since! Now Tarot is helping me to make my spiritual journey. For those who would like to participate, I'll be taking notes with special intentions and prayers written on them and leaving them in a power place. Feel free to ask me more about this.

Cali is a very picky eater...I eat anything. Mommy found the best foods. We like canned and dry mixed. These were so good
Cali started to eat on her own. I like it all!
Mommy did a comparison of all the top foods, dry and canned. She had trouble copying them to this blog so you have to look on our other one at ....
there are separate entries for canned, top dry and top 5 ingredients...check it out.
Originally seen on our bigger blog on June 16th @ http://moorecavaliers.wordpress.com/
Zoe is just over a year old and has to be the one of the most personable dogs we have owned.
This little girl is always by my side, follows me from room to room. If you are doing something she is right there checking it out.
She greets my husband with an over exaggerated cavalier wiggle, usually with a toy in her mouth giving him a muffled "wo wo wo" as if she is telling him about her day happily wiggling around his feet. We usually can get her to "talk" by saying "tell me about it" or as my husband and daughter like to do, get her started by mimicking the "wo wo wo" to her in a low pitch. She wiggles and prances around, tail going a mile a minute telling her tale. we get a kick out of it everytime she does it.
She loves to stand on our bed with her front paws on the top of the foot board gazing at herself in the mirror. We wonder what she is thinking as her tail wags checking herself out.
With Zoe you are guaranteed that if you are lying in bed on your back she feels the need to come over before going to sleep and stand on your chest, she does this with my husband. He is usually all settled in, Cali comes over to him and sniffs him, he pats her goodnight. Meanwhile Zoe is like "me, pat me to". She scrambles and climbs on his chest, standing there looking and waiting for the exact moment to lick his chin. Once she accomplishes that she comes over to me and plunks herself against me and is planted solidly in that spot. Cali likes to quietly curl up on her blanket at my feet.
Cali is a little taller than Zoe. Zoe takes great joy in running under Cali, if playing she tries to throw her off balance this way. Most of the time she scoots under her to get to something, this is a little rough on Cali if they are on leashes outside!
Zoe seems to find joy in just about everything, she is rambunctious and adventuresome. She is a character and our entertainer. If you leave the room she is following you curious and boldly checking into what you are doing.
If you close a door she has her nose under the edge of the door trying to figure out what is going on in there. When I leave to run errands she is right there to greet me at the door when I return before anyone else. On shopping day she sits on the rug in front of the sink keeping me company in case I brought a present home for them..usually a treat or toy she can shred.
Cali is a little stand offish and if you want her to come to you she hesitates and approaches slowly. Zoe on the other hand runs wiggly over and leans into you, she can't get enough hugs and pats. She runs happily,tail wagging behind you either licking your calf or stepping in your flip flops as you walk. There are times you wish she wouldn't walk so close especially when she has a Nyla bone in her mouth and she pokes you with it.
If Cali is barking, Zoe runs to me and and sits at my feet staring up at me as if to say "I am being good, Mommy". We are not a fan of the barking especially the high pitch one Cali does to sirens that pass, we are working on controlling it. Sometimes I am not in the room when it happens, if not Zoe comes to find me doing the good girl thing for me.
Other times if Cali barks she nudge Cali's face with hers as if she is trying to stop her, or joins in with a muffled low bark watching me to see if I approve. As soon as I get up or head over, Zoe quick runs next to me as quiet as can be. She is kind of like that little kid that is brown nosing it to the teacher.
She is a sweetie, a joy, a bug, a teaser, a love. She keeps us laughing . As different as our two cavaliers are it seems their differences seem to balance out and they fit nicely into our lives, we love them…
This recipe I had to come up with when Buddy was ill. He was put on a special diet and could not have any other food but what he was on…that meant no special treats! Toward the last few weeks it was one way I could get a little food into him.
So I started experimenting. The one food I was using for one dog had turkey and veggies in it and when the cookies baked it smelled like Thanksgiving. The cookies were still cooling when my husband came home, he made the remark about my baking cookies for him and he went to eat one…I could have let him "sample it" but decided to be nice and tell him he would love the treat if he had 4 legs and a tail. He quickly put the cookie down.
The other food I used was fish and potatoes, this I strongly recommend baking with ventilation and open a window. I did this on a day when no one was home, turned on the fan above the stove and opened a few windows.
The dogs love them. When Toby was declining it was a good way to get food into him since he would not eat his soft and ground dry mix. Since he rarely missed a chance for a cookie he readily took it. He was eating small bits at the end and the cookies contained all the same nutrients as his food so I gave him a few several times a day. The texture baked is different so he was felt he was getting a treat not mushy food.
This is good for dog's with allergies on special food.
Dog Cookies Recipe WOOF!
*Either a 14 oz. or 13 oz. can of moist dog food (moisture contents 76 to 78%)
*3/4 cup dry dog food
Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Cookie sheet greased (Pam or Mazola Pure Olive Oil spray works well)
Using a food processor finely grind dry dog food until it is a fine powder. Mix canned food and powder into a bowl and blend with a fork until thoroughly mixed. Mixture can be made into little balls then flattened or it can be rolled and a cookie cutter used to form shapes…I found the best way was little balls/flattened. Place the pieces onto the greased cookie sheet. No need to space them far apart they don't spread out, but shrink a bit. One mixture can fit on one cookie sheet.
Place them in the oven for about 1 and a 1/2 hours, halfway through gently turn the cookies over. Turn oven off when cookies are hard. Time may vary, increase time and check every 5 minutes after the initial cook time if necessary. Cookies should be firm and not soft enough to push into.
When cookies are done, turn off oven and leave them in the oven for a few hours to ensure the moisture is gone, remove to cool completely (30 minutes or more) before placing into Tupperware. If you place the hot cookies into Tupperware prior to cooling completely moisture may form and cause cookies to mold. Shelf life is about 1 to 2 weeks in a closed container.
*This can be done with 2 cans of 5.5 oz. moist food to a 3/4 to 1/2 cup dry food. If using 1/2 cup dry the baking time may need to be increased to made the cookies harden completely.
Remember crunchy is good!!!!

Jason Bateman & Melissa McCarthy Premiere "Identity Thief" in Los Angeles
Stepping out for some promotional duties, Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy showed up at the Los Angeles premiere of their new flick "Identity Thief" last night (February 4).
The "Arrested Development" stud looked to be having a blast as he meandered around outside the Westwood neighborhood event with his wife Amanda Anka.
Meanwhile, Ms. McCarthy brought her husband (and "Bridesmaids" costar) Ben Falcone along for the evening as she mingled with Genesis Rodriguez, Molly Sims, and Jenna Elfman.
Due out this Friday, February 8th, "Identity Thief" is about a mild-mannered businessman named Sandy Patterson who travels from Denver to Miami to confront the deceptively harmless-looking woman who has been living it up after stealing Sandy's identity.

Compatible Axles
Hi everyone! Can you throw in some suggestions on which axles are compatible with the 93 YJ...right now it's stock motor and trans with a 6" spring over axle lift. Running the stock axles with detroit lockers. I'm looking for stronger/better axles. Thanks!
Ford 8.8 is the most popular its 5/8 narrower the a wrangler but will work great. They can be found in a lot of Ford vehicles. If you for a 96 or newer you get disc brakes. 87 to 88 XJ limited have a Dana 44 there not as strong but they don't have C clips. With a little fab work you can get the Ford 8.8 disc brakes on the 44. The Dana 30 upfront is a good front end and doesn't need to be replaced unless your going to run 38" or larger tires. If you run 35 or larger I suggest you get rid of the CAD and do solid shafts possibly mollys. I run 36 13.50 swamper iroks with the d30/d44 set up with molly shafts up front 4.88 gears and E-ton electric lockers. I built my jeep for one purpose rocks, and never had any brake downs in the drivetrain department. Ok going for my second Rubicon run in a few weeks.
Depending on what you wanna do, I always go straight to 1 tons...but thats a wheel and tire change too.
That's my next project 5.9l cumming, rockwells, 44" tires minimum

Well, the house feels lonely now. There is only one puppy left, Apollo. He will be leaving on Monday and joining his new family in Boise, ID. He will have 2 other dogs to play with and 4 kids. Hades went to live with a nice and active young lady in VA. He will be living close to his sister Artemis and they are planning play dates. Poseidon went to Atlanta, GA as a gift for a nice young man from his girlfriend. My human and the girlfriend had planned it as a surprise and boy, was he surprised. Poseidon's new name is Barrett and he is now here on Dogster along with his new brother, Lawson. Finally, little Aphrodite was adopted by a nice family with two boys, 15 and 11. They live near Philadelphia so she is the closest of all my babies. It looks like we will be moving next summer so I don't think I will get to have puppies next year. While they were exhausting and I was not myself from the moment I got pregnant until just recently, I do hope to do it again. Stay tuned...
Hi everyone,
More the half my babies are gone. After Ares flew to Germany, Athena went to live with a nice lady in NH, Artemis went to live near her dad's in Washington, DC and Zeus went to live in NJ. Today my little girl Hera went with a nice couple to live in Brooklyn. Only Poseidon, Hades and Apollo are left for sale and Aphrodite will be put up for adoption because of her medical issues. I do hope the boys find homes soon because as they get bigger, they get into more serious scuffles with each other. They are good boys and will be great friends to someone. I am sad but it is definitely time for them to go. Hopefully the next time I write, they will all be in their forever homes. Bye for now...
Today is a sad day for me - my first pup left for his new home. He is on a airplane on his way to Germany where he will join his new family. They have two young boys and a female Thai Ridgeback to keep him busy. I know he will be happy there but we will all miss him. He was the biggest boy in the litter and has the most beautiful needle ridge on his back. His coat is nice and short and a rich cocoa black color. In two days, one of my littlest girls will be going home with her new mom to NH. Then on Saturday, my only two blue puppies will be leaving as well. The boy will be going Hoboken, NJ and the girl will be going to Washington DC. As sad as I am that my little birds are flying from our nest, it is time. The nine of them together certainly could get into some mischief, usually instigated by my NJ bound boy. There are a few people that are interested in the remaining pups but haven't made a commitment yet. The only one I am worried about is my littlest girl. We call her Peanut because she is so small. She reminds us of the Charlie Brown Christmas tree. She just needs someone special to care for her and we know she will flourish. You can see pictures of the puppies at www. sundancetrd.com. Thanks for checking in!

Please Help No Heat In Upstairs Radiator Downstrairs Is Fine
My temporary fix has been to force water into the furnace and bring it to about 11psi. I then bleed the radiators until i get water. This works for a few weeks or so then I lose heat agian. It seems that i lose water and pressure. I have no leaks in the house. Its a small area 800 sqft to heat so its not a big system....any ideas or advice/help would be great!!!!
Thank You
How old is the expasnion tank?
The furnace should "fill" on its own.
Do you bleed the system?
the first time this happened i emptied the whole system (nasty black water) and refilled. the tank i dont see a date on there i have been here 4 years so its at least that old.
What is the PSI reading on the gauge at the boiler?
Right now the pressure is 4-5 psi
The boiler should maintain 12-15psi as has already been stated. Your fill valve is probably broken. Manually raise it to 15psi and see if that helps.
that does help for a few weeks then this happens again....i guess i can change the valve this weekend...how do i know if it is the circulator pump ? I cant tell if it is working or not...
The circulator pump has nothing to do with the pressure which we have already established is your problem. Go to your local plumbing supply and get yourself a new fill valve. I recommend against Home Depot, Lowes, or any other big box stores. They tend to go for the cheapest stuff they can get there hands on.
if the circulator pump isn't running you won't have any heat and the boiler would be satisfying itself on the limit due to the water not being circ'd.the pump should run when the stat calls motor should be warm to hot(depends on location around boiler)i am thinking you have a steam boiler not a hot water boiler...with loosing water and pressure but no leak?
Ok, hold everything for a minute.
I assumed this was hot water. If you have steam ignore the previous advice, you have a different problem.
yes it is a hot water heating system....should i still replace the fill valve...that was the same question i was asking myself where is the water and air going ?
are you setting one stat for the whole house?the relief on the side of the boiler is it wet on the inside of the copper pipe(blow off) or right inside the brass fitting
Yes just one thermostat for the house ..im sorry im not that good at these types of things ..when you say relief.. is that the spicket on the side at the bottom that i use to fill the furnace with water ?

Our Web Sites
The Incredible Medical School - www.TheIncredibleMedicalSchool.com
----- Also includes: Inside Hypertension, Inside Physician Office, and Inside Diabetes Mellitus Membership Sites.
The Incredible Medical School is the medical educational video site for the general public. Teachings are for the general public on medical topics - Like medical school with adjustments for us nonmedical folks. Topics like how to read and EKG. Those wavy lines will no longer be a mystery! You won't be on the level of a cardiologist, but you will be able to find the basic information like heart attacks, bad rhythms, heart blocks. Then there is lacerations and suturing. It's not that difficult when you have the basic knowledge. That knowledge is not readily available outside of medical school. But with TIMS you have access to the information. See below for details on additional medical topics.
Most Medical videos are directed at medical professionals (doctors, nurses, etc). Those medical videos assume medical knowledge and also come with a high price. A 30 minutes medical video can cost over $100! So... why are we able to offer so many hours of videos and membership sites at such a low price? First, we use comsumer high def cameras and instead of professional production companies, we do it in-house. Set up a camera and begin teaching the topic. Editing is done on our computer. So while the videos aren't "professional", they are good, educational and the price can be kept low for the general public (which is our target audience). No exciting special effects. No high prices - Just medical educational teachings.

Hypertension or high blood pressure is a common condition. With high blood pressure, the pressure of the blood in your blood vessels is higher than it should be. 70 million people have high blood pressure, but only about half of people with high blood pressure have it under control. High blood pressure increases the risk for heart disease and stroke.
High blood pressure is called the "silent killer" because it often has no warning signs or symptoms, and many people don't know they have it. That's why it's important to check your blood pressure regularly. The good news is that you can take steps to prevent high blood pressure or to control it if your blood pressure is already high.
The Inside Hypertension Membership Site provides organized in depth videos, documents, and information on everything about hypertension. If you have hypertension (high blood pressure) and need a "go to" source for information and treatment options, this is the membership site for you!
Here are just a few of the topics contained in the membership site: General Information, Diagnosis, Blood Pressure Measurement, Home and Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring, History and Risk Factors, Symptoms, Physical Exam, Laboratory Testing, Types of Hypertension, Findings and Evaluation for Causes of Hypertension, Hypertension Urgency / Emergency, Diabetes and Hypertension, Resistant Hypertension, Hypertension in the Elderly, Hypertension and Pregnancy, Surgery and Hypertension, General Treatment, Sodium and Salt, DASH Diet, Medications Overview, Side Effects and Warnings, Simple Mechanisms of Actions of Hypertension Medications, Hypertension Medications (Brand Name), Hypertension Medications (Generic Name), Hypertension Medications (Classification Name).

Hey, fellow Dogsters!
Remember how many times we almost crashed the servers while throwing pawties on Dogster?
Let's do it one more time... on Sunday, March 2nd!
I'll bring the can of Poot-b-Gone,
if you'll bring the Pawgarita Fountain...
My pups first joined Dogster in January 2005. Shortly after, I read that Dogster had been nominated for a Webby Award--an award for excellence on the Internet presented annually by The International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences. Dogster WON the 2005 Webby category for best Community site. Best Community site. Not best magazine, not best newsletter, not best blog... the best COMMUNITY site.
The Chicago Crew, aka WINston XXLP, Remo the Red, HoneyBunny & LuckyLucy, went on to become the Chicago Crew of Angels. The support received from this Community during their various illnesses/passings, the Power of the Paw, the positive Karma, the love... priceless.
The loss of this Community is Say Media's loss. The Community will live on. Already groups are cropping up on Facebook, some taking the name of the forum or group from this Community. Come find us. Do a search for the tag "Dog" or "Dogster". Come and play. Our Community will never die...
with Burt, my Chicago Crew
"replacement" on Earth.
I was born on Feb. 21, 1997.
Burt was born on Feb. 21, 2006.
How about THAT for a co-inky-dink???
Today Burt is 7 years old,
and I'm celebrating 16 years.
Please have a carob PupCake
on both of us! And a side helping of
drooooooooooooooooooooooooooool! BOL
A wise man once said "When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight". We choose to remember the day you came into our lives, not the terrible day when you left us...
My mind drifts back to when we got you. Dad and I had driven across the state of Illinois to Moline to pick up your roommate, Gipper, and bring him back to Chicago. He was going into an As Good as Gold--Golden Retriever Rescue of Northern Illinois foster home. While we were filling out the paperwork and Dad was walking Gipper around the driveway, the lady said "do you know anyone who would want a Bulldog"?
To say we were stunned would be an understatement. Your Dad had wanted a Bulldog for years--since 1973--but we could never find one up for adoption when we had a "vacancy". We followed the lady to her friend's house, where you had been kept in a crate in the basement for three months. I remember sitting on the steps leading down to the drive-way of the split-level house. The garage door opened, and there you were.
You waddled your special waddle with all your swagger and attitude over to a large landscaping rock--and watered it! Then, as if an afterthought, you glanced over and saw us. You casually shuffled over on those massive paws. You leaned in, sniffed us both, snorted, and then walked away as if to tell us we were of no consequence to you.
Fast forward. The strangest thing has happened. You have become my baby. My puppy. My Winstie. Your Dad, who wanted the bulldog, has had to settle for whatever attention you bestow on him when I'm not around. When I am here, you are my shadow. You don't have to be right next to me--but you have to be able to see me. Then you are content. And so am I.
When we adopted you, you were seven years old, already a senior citizen by Bulldog standards. I think the lady thought she was sending you off with us to die. But we were blessed. We had four and a half years together, though the last year and a half was rough, courtesy of Nutro and Menu Foods. But you beat them. You survived.
Oh, how I would give anything to cuddle with you again on "your" couch. Feel your big tongue wash my face--you never did anything as simple as a "lick". To stroke your so very soft and unbulldog-like fur. To plant a kiss on the brown spot on the top of your head--the spot where the angel kissed you before you were born. To scritch your ears and scratch your fuzzy butt. To hear you lay down in the doorway and start to snore.
I hope somewhere, somehow, you know how much you were loved, and are loved. I miss you so, sweet bully boy. And I thank you for all the wonderful memories that I'll cherish forever.

It also looks like UT will squeeze a visit out of the nation's No. 8 safety prospect, Corey Campbell, of Houston, Texas. Campbell (6-2, 190, 4.4) has already visited Arkansas and Iowa and is believed to be favoring the Razorbacks. He visits Oklahoma this weekend, Tennessee on Jan. 17 and LSU on Jan. 24. Campbell appears impressionable and if the Vols get a visit they stand a strong shot at getting a commitment.
Tennessee and LSU appear to be the two teams that will go to the wire for No. 10 wideout Anthony Hill of Jacksonville, Fla. Hill (6-3, 200, 4.48), who caught three passes for 30 yards in the recent Florida-California all-star contest, will wrap up his visits with a trip to Florida State this weekend. He ruled out Florida after a Dec. 13 visit and indicates he's likely headed out of state. If the Vols land Hill he will be the highest rated wide receiver to pick UT out of the talent rich Sunshine State since Alvin Harper (Frostproof, Fla.) signed with Tennessee in 1988.
Another top prospect from Florida the Vols are in contention with is No. 10 rated cornerback Kenny Scott of Daytona Beach. Scott (6-1, 180, 4.4) has already visited Notre Dame and Georgia Tech and will make his last three visits beginning with Florida State this weekend, followed by visits to Tennessee (Jan. 17) and Florida (Jan. 24). Scott doesn't list a favorite and Tennessee's need at corner will prove attractive, but beating the in-state schools may prove more difficult. However Scott has a good relationship with Tennessee assistant Jimmy Ray Stephens, who recruited the DB for Florida before accepting a job at Tennessee last spring.
As foretold on Inside Tennessee a week ago, San Diego QB Richard Kovalcheck has selected Arizona over UT. Distance was the inherent advantage the Vols couldn't overcome in the chase for the strong-armed signal caller. The Vols will now turn to their second tier of QB prospects, although Michael Bush of Louisville Male High School remains a possibility. An outstanding athlete, who played quarterback for the first time this year, Bush prefers playing QB in college instead of wide receiver or safety. The opportunity at Tennessee may appeal to Bush, but Ohio State is believed to be the team to beat at this point. The Vols are scheduled to get Bush's last official visit on Jan. 24 while the Buckeyes will entertain the all-American on Jan. 17. He has also made unofficial visits to watch the Buckeyes and Vols play.
Louisville, Kentucky and Wake Forest are also in the running for Bush. Complicating matters is the question of whether Bush will decide to focus on football or basketball in college rather than play both. Interestingly, the Vols are listed as a favorite by The Insiders for Bush the basketball player who is rated the nation's No. 18 shooting guard and No. 14 quarterback prospect. Keep an eye on this one.
Tennessee may have a silent commitment from Marietta, Ga., quarterback Zach Richardson (6-5, 210, 4.8) who is scheduled to visit UT on Jan. 24. The big southpaw, rated No. 62 nationally, has great arm strength and surprising speed for a player his size. Richardson has tremendous upside and appears to be a perfect fit for Tennessee's offensive system. He needs development and may be two years away from contributing significantly, but his potential makes him a strong future candidate for a starting role and he made great progress as a senior. The Vols have made a couple of in-home visits and coach Randy Sanders maintains close contact with Richardson, who took an unofficial visit to UT with his parents in December.
Auburn, Georgia, Miami and LSU are also known to have an interest in Richardson, but he has yet to set any other visits. Outside of a late JC signing or a transfer, Richardson appears the most likely QB signee for the Vols in the Class of 2003. Tennessee will intensify its efforts to sign a top signal caller in 2004.
There are several other ongoing developments in Tennessee recruiting that will be detailed here in coming days, including a couple of potential signees from Virginia and the latest on the junior college scene.

Fair enough -
but that still leaves me with the question - what's the best way to do this then?
IMO there should be (IMO) an easy way to say:
<built-in-function> [ f[x_,y_,z_], {x,y,z}, Integers ]
is a mathematica function,
is an expression or series of chained expressions, and
is a list of arguments to pass to function, and which vary from evaluation
to evaluation via global optimization tools, and
which is the domain over which {x,y,z} can vary.
I'm agnostic on the algorithm being deterministic, algebraic, or approximative,
but IMO this would be a very expressive way of solving problems that otherwise
would be very messy.
Just my 2 cents.

cassie is getting older and needs help with simple things like jumping up on the couch. We went to Home Depot and bought her a small step stool and that seems to do the trick. It is not bulky like some of the doggy stairs. She still has breathing problems too which probably contributes to her inability to jump. Still likes to run around with the bunnies that come into our yard. Chases but never catches them...
Cassie is an apricot 5 year old toy poodle. She is an alpha female. She is very smart and can do tricks for treat rewards. Sit, shake, roll over, play dead are the tricks that Cassie loves to perform especially when there are treats involved.
She has breathing problems sometimes from allergies. She still plays with all of her toys.

how do you keep two female dogs from fighting. dominance seems to be the trigger
My dog is a pointer and my daughters dog is a pit mix. They are very good with people and kids. Something is triggering them to violently fight. The pointer usually starts the fight but the pit cause the most damage. Just me coming home from work can trigger a fight. It seem to be over dominance. How can I stop this before something bad happens

- Cast your vote for which answer you think is best!
Your pointer will be on the losing end. All your girl wants to do is be number one with you, the other dog doesn't want to let her. I'll bet you had your dog first. I'll bet that pit interferes with the pointer's greeting you upon arriving home. That in dogdom is a fighting offence. I know what I'd do, not a popular idea I'm sure, I'd rehome that pit mix to a home without other dogs. If you don't want to rehome the pit, find a good home for that pointer. Someday you may come home to a bloody mess. DO NOT leave them alone together, ever. Your dog has a RIGHT to be the one to greet you first, the other dog is breaking the rules as far as your girl is concerned, and she IS provoking your dog to respond.

I don't think this is over dominance as much as it sounds like it's over territory, both you and the house.
It is tough sometimes to integrate two dogs into one home, even if it is part time. Sometimes, it works brilliantly and other times it's difficult, if not impossible.
I think you have a chance to work this out but you're going to need some professional help. We can give you advice in general on Answers, but there is really nothing close to helpful like someone who can see the dogs in person and see how they interact with you and with each other.
It's important to stop the fighting before someone gets hurt (dog or human) and in order to do that, you need a professional. Finding a trainer or good behaviorist can be difficult. Check with the local animal shelter; that's a tight knit crew and they usually know local trainers well. Beware of anyone who uses outdated techniques or claims "alpha" over the phone. That's going to make things worse.
Good luck with these two.
Jack answered on 12/3/09. Helpful? / 0
It could be many things. I am not biased againist particular breeds.
I think you need to find out what is triggering the fight. Are both dogs spayed? you must spay them. Lots of females fight, it is not a breed specific thing.
Try to keep them seperated during the times you can not watch them. If it is food, then feed them seperately, place the bowls up, if it is toys let them play with one toy each and keep them seperated, the more you supervise and let the dogs know it is not allowed the chances of you being successful more is in your favor.
If they are not getting enough attention seperately, walk them seperately. Play with them seperately, cause sometimes they fight over attention. Make every possible thing in your house positive. They sit for treats, they sit to be petted, be patient, kind and loving and amazing things can happen.
I would exercise them seperately get them both out of the house. Maybe the dogs pick on each other when you are gone, place them in crates ect.

Female dogs fight... usually over territory. IMO your coming home is causing them to have to defend that which they think is theirs alone. Until you get an appointment with a good behaviorist, do not allow them to be alone together! As long as they are kept apart when alone you should be okay until you can work this out with a behaviorist..not a trainer but a person specializing in this type of issue. That person will observe the dogs and provide you with the best information. But, it is important to prevent fighting until then so that it does not lead to continued aggression and hatred of each other.

Read the follow-up report created by Gwenn Meynier, our intern from France who spent three months working with us over the summer of 2014 to discover more about:
The end of last month saw the first stable release of CoreOS; a contemporary Linux operating system geared towards efficient distributed computation. The design focuses on high availability and responsiveness of machine clusters in order to deliver a high-performance interface to an optimised cloud system. It achieves this through a highly compartmentalised architecture whose modular nature allows processes within the cluster to be dealt out to nodes based on their immediate availability. This paradigm maximises reliability in the eventuality that a node fails, in that the downed node's workload can be offloaded to the rest of the cloud. In this way, CoreOS streamlines operations in a robust and maintainable manner.
Odoo started its days as TinyERP, a system built on the same ideals as the subsequently named OpenERP and Odoo. An ideal of Open Source software providing business system solutions in a flexible and maintainable way. Its strength is drawn from the clear direction that Odoo as a company leads the project and over 20,000 community contributors. By the nature of Open Source Odoo is completely customisable, allowing the system to meet your needs, rather than you changing to meet the system's workflows.
The Debian LTS project has been progressing quickly. The Debian archive is already taking uploads for the new suite and there are mailing lists for announcements and communications. Regular support for Debian Squeeze ended on 31 May and the Squeeze LTS archive has already seen a couple of important uploads.
Tomorrow (4th June), I shall be attending what will now be the first Odoo Open Day, in Louvain-La-Neuve, Belgium.
Odoo (formally OpenERP) is one of the main projects credativ are involved in the UK, implementing, hosting, and supporting numerous instances to meet the varying business needs of our clients.
The event is the first under the new name, Odoo, and is just one month before the scheduled release of version 8. As such, I shall be investigating what the future holds for the swiftly expanding project, and what the re-branding means for customers, partners, and its place in the ever advancing adoption of Open Source software.
To those attending, I hope to see you there! To those not able to attend, watch this space for my follow up.
In the "Case Study" category we present recent customer projects. This case study focuses on one of our most prolific public sector projects to date, the administration of the Bavarian Capital, the City of Munich. credativ GmbH have been providing support for the LiMux-Project of Munich's city council since 2008, during which time some 15,000 workstations have been migrated to Linux. After years of planning and a long start phase, the migration recently made real headway.
credativ UK once again celebrated Software Freedom Day this month. Although it was one of just 4 registered events taking place in the UK, Software Freedom Day is a global event. A lot of time and preparation went in to making sure it was as successful as last year, and it paid off. Around a hundred visitors passed through the doors, drawn by various press releases, letters to local councillors and schools, and online marketing efforts from the sponsors, who included the local Rugby LUG (Linux User Group), social enterprise Cultivating Communities, and OpusVL, among other open source service providers in the area.. This year, organizers wanted to particularly attract teachers and representatives from local schools, as well as volunteers who might be interested in signing up to host or help with a CodeClub.
The UK government is currently consulting on the use of Open Standards and Open Source as an alternative for proprietary software. The proposed policy is being attacked by the large corporations who dominate the market of UK public sector IT and want to ensure government policy does not undermine their market share. Respond to the Consultation As part of the open source community we have a responsibility to respond to this Consultation - not just passively dis/agree with it. The closing date for submitting responses is fast approaching and coincides with election date next week, 3 May. It is the number of responses, rather than the amount written which will have the most impact - i.e. even if you can't answer every question, it's important just to respond explaining why you want Royalty Free Open Standards.

Ran to the local big box hardware store and they dont carry 7/16 grade 8 hardware...hmmm ran across the street to the "other place" and scored a 3 inch 7/16 grade 8 bolt and 3 washers of the same grade. Figured instead of cutting the bolt I could use them as spacers, I know the easy way out. Cleaned everything up on the cap, put the pump on BEFORE mounting the cap and checked clearances.everything looked good so I resinstalled the cap, torqued it home, put the pump on and realized I had'nt mounted the pick up yet lol....off it came and to the parts store I went. Put it on right there on the counter sothey wouldnt hassle me for a CC for the "loan" of the tool. These guys did'nt even know they has the tool until I convinced them that it was on the loaner shelf.
So at any rate I have a solid 1/2-3/4 inch of grade 8 bolt lock tighted in holding the pump, i feel fairly sure it will stay put.
On to the next step...pick up tube positioning and deciding to either have it brazed or "clamped" on or both...
Thanks for the advice, I look forward to poking around the site and learning/sharing as I can.
its good that you got a bolt in there but it would be better if you got an ARP oil pump stud, that is the common fix for problems like this.

Gazette distorted Union of Concerned Scientists' position regarding new federal guidelines, claimed group "pollute[s] the purity of science with politics"
Research ››› ››› MEDIA MATTERS STAFF
An editorial in The Gazette of Colorado Springs falsely accused the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) of opposing new U.S. Geological Survey guidelines and claimed the group "pollute[s] the purity of science with politics." In fact, UCS has not criticized the guidelines and has issued a statement -- signed by 10,600 scientists -- condemning political interference in science.
In a December 20 editorial about U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) guidelines that "require USGS staff scientists to submit all reports or conference presentations to managers in advance to ensure they meet agency standards," The Gazette of Colorado Springs falsely claimed that the Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) "describes these and other administration actions as attempts to undermine the 'integrity of science.' " The UCS has not, in fact, criticized the USGS guidelines. The Gazette also charged that the UCS "has done more than any other group we can think of to pollute the purity of science with politics" -- ignoring the abundant evidence gathered by the UCS that the Bush administration has indeed sought to undermine the "integrity of science."
The Gazette editorial (posted online December 19) cited a December 14 Washington Post article ("USGS Scientists Object To Stricter Review Rules: Pre-Publication Policy Seen as Cumbersome") which reported that "[a] new Bush administration policy for reviewing scientific documents before publication has angered some U.S. Geological Survey scientists, who say the elaborate internal review of their work may impede them from conveying information to the public." The Gazette incorrectly attributed criticism of the USGS rules to the UCS, and then accused the UCS of playing politics with science:
[T]he loudest critiques of these new rules come from the Union of Concerned Scientists, which has done more than any other group we can think of to pollute the purity of science with politics. It describes these and other administration actions as attempts to undermine the "integrity of science."
In fact, the UCS has not criticized the USGS rules. The Post article cited by The Gazette reported that, according to Michael Halpern, UCS' outreach coordinator for scientific integrity, "[some USGS scientists] perceive it as another hoop to jump through in order to get scientific documents approved" but "the policy may not be a problem if officials make sure it's a 'valid review process.' "
The Post did note that "[t]he controversy over the peer review process surfaced a day after the Union of Concerned Scientists announced that 10,600 scientists have signed a statement complaining that the Bush administration has undermined the 'scientific integrity' of federal policymaking."
The UCS on December 11 issued a press release on the integrity of science statement, announcing the number of scientists who had signed it and promoting the release of "an 'A to Z' guide that documents dozens of recent allegations involving censorship and political interference in federal science." The press release also detailed the qualifications of the statement's signatories and provided recent examples of "censorship and political interference in federal science":
The integrity of science statement has grown steadily since it was first released in February 2004. Signatories now include 52 Nobel Laureates, 63 National Medal of Science recipients, and almost 200 members of the National Academies of Science. Meanwhile, the new UCS compendium details censorship and political interference in federal science on issues as diverse as air quality, childhood lead poisoning, and prescription drug safety. For example, in late October UCS released documents tying high-level political appointees at the Department of Interior to the manipulation and distortion of numerous scientific documents to prevent the protection of six different species under the Endangered Species Act.

Has anyone had any luck with figuring out a way to open up the WP admin for potential customers to play with before purchasing? Screenshots are one thing, but actually playing with the settings is a great way to sell your items.
What I would like is for it to just reset to default every 5 minutes or so. Or even better, potentially on every login they have their own little "version" of the theme they can play with but no one else will see the changes being made.
I assume this is done with WPMU , but I'm not sure how to get that set up. Any resources you can point me to would be fantastic. Thanks in advance!
Whatever, it's setting up a new blog and entire database for each tester. You have just to think about the resources being spent for each test. I'm thinking of doing the same, but users can't change settings (make a save), they just check the settings panels.

Whoever is compiling a list of what journalists really believe when they put forth certain vague but commonly used phrases (e.g., using "some people believe" instead of truthfully saying "in my opinion") should consider adding the following: "small but vocal group" really means "a tiny bunch of people I agree with."
That's my assessment as I look at two uses of the term this past weekend, each referring to pathetically small gatherings of people using tax-filing weekend as a excuse to protest "corporate tax loopholes."
The first comes to us via David Roeder of the Chicago Sun-Times (HT JammieWearingFool via Instapundit), where the paper's headline writers cooked up something that would give those who didn't read the underlying report the impression that the city's Tea Party Tax Day protest was small:
Small but vocal group protests taxes
"Thank you for paying your taxes" is a seldom-heard phrase, but it was the calling card Sunday for a few citizens angry about federal loopholes for corporations.
They had a serious point to make with humor. With some dressing the part, they pretended to be high-class moguls walking Michigan Avenue and thanking people "for paying your fair share of U.S. taxes, so we don't have to."
... They included members of the Coffee Party, which is positioning itself as a nonpartisan alternative to the Tea Party, and U.S. Uncut. Last week, U.S. Uncut took credit for a hoax press release saying that General Electric was returning to the treasury its $3.2 billion tax refund.
Participants said they hope to convince others that wiping out corporate loopholes will save critical programs facing the budget ax. "The corporate tax situation in Europe is so much simpler," said Jim Netter, a music producer from Chicago. "Nominal rates are much lower, but corporations actually have to pay them."
The headline obviously should have read that the group opposes "tax loopholes."
Anyone even remotely familiar with federal fiscal figures knows that closing all the alleged loopholes would barely make a dent in the government's $1.5 trillion annual deficit. Additionally, closing the alleged loopholes without lower overall corporate tax rates (the average effective rates in the U.S. is currently the second-highest in the world behind Japan) would only work to make American companies less competitive, cause them to create more jobs overseas instead of here, and lead some of them to move their headquarters out of the U.S.
Another similar report comes out of St. Augustine, Florida:
Small but vocal group protests outside rally
As Tea Party members enthusiastically cheered politicians at Saturday's Tea Party rally at the St. Johns County Fairgrounds, a small but vocal group gathered at the State Road 207 entrance.
As many as three dozen people -- including teachers from at least three counties -- held signs that said "Pink Slip Rick," and "Fight Truth Decay."
... St. Johns County Education Association president Debby Etheredge said the group was protesting cuts to education spending "and the fact that (state Sen. John Thrasher) wants to take away our political voices."
Etheredge was referring to Thrasher's introduction of a bill that the Associated Press reports would no longer allow union dues to be automatically deducted from employees' paychecks and would require members to give written approval before their dues are used for political purposes.
... Once we collect the dues dollars, it's up to the members where the money goes," Said Liz Crane, president of the Clay County Education Association. "It's not up to the Legislature, which is saying we can't use (the money) for political purposes."
.... Gloria LeBlanc, coordinator for the local Coffee Party, said she was holding the "Fight Truth Decay" sign to protest misinformation the current government is dispensing.
"I'm not here to protest the Tea Party," she emphasized. "The Tea Party is welcome in the Coffee Party.
... The Coffee Party is a nonpartisan group committed to civil dialogue about problems facing the nation, state and local community.
"I'm protesting cutting programs for the poor and middle class while giving tax cuts for the rich," LeBlanc said. "I don't want controversy. I want to have a dialogue."
Oh yeah, they're nonpartisan. The last four excerpted paragraphs are so laugh-out-loud funny that it should have come with a "don't read this if you have any liquids in your mouth" warning.
As to the use of dues for political purposes, there was a Supreme Court ruling about that over two decades ago: Beck vs. Communication Workers of America. The Court said that unions can't use dues for political purposes without a worker's consent. The problem is that until states codify Beck into law, the only way individual union members can stop this from happening is to take legal action themselves. They should ultimately win, but most will be deterred due to the costs and personal ostracism involved. As far as I can tell, all Florida is merely doing is what all 50 states should have done long ago, and the quoted Liz Crane is dead wrong.
There was one other Coffee Party-related event I found, but it was written up in advance in Oregon (bold is in original):
... Even though taxes are not due today, there are still Tax Day Tea Parties being held across the country, meant to bring attention to concerns with too much government spending and high taxes.
There are also rallies against the tea party today...
NewsWatch 12's Danielle Craig was live at Alba Park in Medford, where some have gathered for a so-called "Coffee Party."
The people who attended the "Coffee Party" say they're tired of the Tea Party, blaming it for growing hate speech in politics.
... The Coffee Party is hoping today's rally will unite minority groups in the community.
I would suggest that "some" in the third excerpted paragraph might really mean the following: "a really small and not very vocal group I agree with."

A deadly outbreak of antibiotic-resistant bacteria last year at the Clinical Research Center of the National Institutes of Health offers a fascinating and frightening window on the future of medicine. Fascinating because scientists used whole-genome sequencing to obtain a fine-grained blueprint of the genetic material in the bacteria and to track how it spread. Frightening because the bacteria, resistant to multiple antibiotics, defied efforts to control it in the 234-bed hospital in Bethesda.

Bryant Furnace pilot not lighting
I'm new here and not sure if I posted in the right forum.
Ok...here goes.
Bryant model BW2AAN000105ABAA another number I saw was PWB-4D. It's a gas hot water furnace.
The pump will circulate the water in the system, but the pilot light won't light thus no heat will be produced by the furnace. I thought it might be the auto pilot ignition box so I replaced that, but that didn't work. I was reading on the info. hanging on the wires of the furnace about it having a fuse that can blow when the flame in furnace gets blowed hard on. (had a huge wind storm here a couple weeks ago knocking down tree's all over the place and that seems to be around the time the furnace wasn't making heat. I just thought that it was warmer that it wasn't kicking on). Possibly a gust of wind came down causing the flame to get blown in such a way as a safety the fuse blew like it was designed to do.
What does this fuse look like and where is it located. I found a little device that is whitish/ivory looking (inside the little door you take off to see the burners) with 2 wires attaching to the top and what looks like a capacitor or resistor going across the bottom of where the two top wires attach to.
Any other suggestions would be appreciated.
I have a forced hot air bryant gas furnace that wouldn't start. It would fire up for a second then turn off. There was an error light on the control board as well.
Turned out, a bee had become stuck on the gas jet and died. The furnace was detecting a gas flow problem and turning off. I removed the bee and it's been working fine since.
Sound like yours isn't even igniting.
This is the best manual online I can find for your model: http://www.docs.hvacpartners.com/idc...og-bs1a-03.pdf
I did find a recall for your model: http://www.general.hvacpartners.com/...73_LID,00.html
