Houseboats—usually more floating Winnebagos than luxury liners—are becoming status symbols with the debut of the 75-foot Odyssey (888/486-4665; www.lakepowell.com ; packages from $3,813 for three days ) on Lake Powell, in Utah and Arizona's Glen Canyon National Recreation Area. Rather than bothering with tour groups or sightseeing cruises to explore the 2,000 miles of cliffed waterfront and peaceful canyons (many accessible only by boat), travelers can take the helm and enjoy the lake at their own pace. And on the Odyssey , spacious staterooms have replaced traditionally cramped quarters. The six-bedroom vessel comes equipped with queen-sized beds, a fireplace, hot tub, home-theater system, satellite TV, and enough tableware to serve up to 12 people. After a hands-on tutorial at the marina (no prior experience neccessary) even novice boaters can navigate the cobalt blue water and anchor for the night along the coast. Spend the days hiking around natural stone bridges, admiring Anasazi ruins, and swimming in the near 80-degree waters off Antelope Island. Thrill seekers can also rent Jet Skis, a wakeboard, and an 18-foot powerboat that makes shore excursions a breeze. DON'T MISS Building a campfire on the beach between Kane Wash and the pristine bay, then watching the sun set behind red canyon walls.

Its three cabins (with seven suites total) are a study in cowboy chic, with sturdy timber walls, Native American blankets, and the occasional rack of antlers.
Rooms with a view are the norm at the wood-and-stone Crater Lake Lodge (541/830-8700; www.craterlakelodges.com; doubles from $126), a 1915 hotel which hugs the bank of the vast volcanic lake in the heart of Oregon's Crater Lake National Park.

Third time's a charm for New London
Montville - The pace the last time these teams played, well, didn't even really qualify as a pace. New London didn't break 30 that day. Woodstock Academy won the Eastern Connecticut Conference Large Division.
Then came the second half Wednesday night, when the New London High School boys' basketball team reinvented the word pace in the ECC tournament semifinals at St. Bernard.
"We played New London defense in the second half … first time all year," an emotional New London coach Craig Parker said. "At halftime, I thought Woodstock might have been laughing at us after they made that (length-of-the-court) 3-pointer. I told our kids, 'We're just going to leave it on the floor. The difference was our pressure."
"New London," Woodstock coach Greg Smith said, "has got another gear that most teams don't have."
Third-seeded New London, down by as many as 13 in the first half and 10 at halftime following the buzzer-beating 3 by Tristan Welch, came back to beat No. 2 Woodstock 78-76 in overtime, getting 30 points from Keith Porter and 27 from 5-foot-9 sophomore DeAnte Bruton to avenge a pair of earlier defeats to the Centaurs.
New London, in the finals for the 10th straight year after a great deal of pacing from Parker and a few fist pumps, will face either No. 1 Ledyard or No. 5 Norwich Free Academy in the championship game at 7 p.m. Friday at St. Bernard.
The second semifinal was postponed Wednesday because of slippery conditions on the court at St. Bernard. The floor was wet-mopped between games, which did not give it enough time to dry with the humid conditions inside the packed gym.
That game will be played over in its entirety at 5 p.m. today at St. Bernard, with free admission.
For New London, which trailed 38-28 at halftime, Bruton scored 14 points in the third quarter as the Whalers (15-7) climbed back in the game, its fullcourt in-your-face defense serving as a point of frustration for Woodstock (19-3).
Finally, in overtime, it was New London's De'Vonta Robinson who scored the game-winning basket with 14 seconds remaining, with Bruton having fouled out and Porter on the sidelines suffering through leg cramps which rendered him nearly unable to walk up the stairs to the locker room afterward.
Woodstock's Ian Converse tied the game at 76 with 40 seconds left.
Collin Sawyer had the initial attempt at a game-winning shot for New London, firing from the right baseline. Robinson swooped in for the rebound and scored with an up-and-under.
Woodstock's Welch missed his team's final shot.
In the teams' last game, Jan. 25 at Woodstock, the Centaurs beat New London 32-28.
"They made us play their game," Woodstock's Smith said. "That's what we just talked about, we can never let another team play their game. And we're not very good at their game.
"It doesn't matter if (the Whalers) get it done on Jan. 25 or whenever it was.
It matters when they get it done at the end of February."
Point guard Chris Lowry, who didn't play in the last game due to injury, led Woodstock with 19 points, followed by 17 each from Welch and 6-foot-5 Sullivan Gardner.
After New London got off to a 7-2 lead, Woodstock scored the next 17 points to end the first quarter on a variety of layups by the 6-foot-5 pair of Gardner and Converse and a 3-point barrage that included four by Welch.
Bruton had 10 points in the first half to lead New London, though, and was just getting started.
Bruton hit his fourth 3-pointer of the third quarter at the 2:46 mark to pull New London within 45-44. He left the game a few seconds later after picking up his fourth foul, but that's when Porter hit his stride.
Porter scored nine in the fourth quarter, including the tying basket with four seconds left to force overtime, then as overtime began scored New London's first seven points, including a spectacular fast-break dunk.
"DeAnte Bruton came up huge. ... (Porter) rebounds for us, he scores," Parker said. "It is a great accomplishment (for us)."

* Definition of Quality Education -- As Chair of the House Select Education Committee in the Montana Legislature, Monica led Republicans and Democrats to successfully and unanimously define a quality system of public education for our children in Montana.
* K-12 School Funding -- As Chair of the Quality Schools Interim Committee, Monica took on the challenge of working with Republicans, Democrats, educators, administrators, school board members, and other interested groups across Montana to develop a new school funding formula in response to a legal court decision which concluded that Montana schools were not adequately funded. The work of the committee led to a successful special session in December of 2005 which passed legislation to increase school funding and added new funding components to address quality educators, Indian Education for All, closing the American Indian student achievement gap, and at risk students.
* Career & Technical Education -- Understanding the growing importance of two-year technical education and training for good-paying jobs, Monica fought for and supported bonding to grow our career and technical colleges in Montana.

Ryobi Miter Saws
Hey all, myabe someone or two can help me out here. i am looking for a DIY miter saw. I also want to buy something that will be good enough for the long haul, as I dont feel like buying another miter saw for many years. I dont use or plan to use the saw more than say 3 times a year or so. I have been given a Ryobi TS1342L, the 10" with laser. I went to HD today and saw the TS1355LA, which is similar but with arm extenders, and an adjustable laser, and a different fence too. I cant find any info on the TS1355LA though. I only see them being sold online as "factory reconditioned". I also think they may have been made for the Canadian market, but not sure. Any info would be great, its really confusing me.
To throw a wrench in the mix, I went to Lowes and saw the Hitachi C10FCH2,their 10" with laser, and I really seem to be in to the build quality with that. So again, any help is greatly appreciated, but the ryobi thing is baffling me, I really would appreciate some info. Thanks, Grandeson
what are you going to be using this for? That is really key before deciding which one you want. If 3 times a year why not just a miter box?
Just built a room (sheetrocked and installed doors) and borrowed my friends muter. I know it would have taken forever with a box. In the near future will probably build some garage shelving, maybe redo a small bathroom and possibly start finishing my basement. The box isn't an option
Bump to top. Need help
Ok got ya. If would recommend a 10 inch slider. They are a little heavier and more expensive, but you can do a lot more with them. I know guys that are happy with their 10 inch ryobi slider, I also know some that will not touch them. If this is strictly a DIY saw I think it would be fine. My only concern would be if you are going to be doing trim work with this. Fence is not that large. I am now in the process of selling 3 of mine to get the one I need. So take it from me, you will never regret buying quality.
I have the Ryobi saw you are looking at. I bought it two years ago. I thought it was ok when I first got it but now that I know a bit more about miter saws in general, I would never buy the tool again. Matter of fact, I have an official ban on Ryobi tools in general. The problem with my saw is that the left side fence is not 90° to the table. The other problem is that the rotating part of the table is not level with the chassis. The amount of offness for each of these is maybe 3-4 playing cards. When you are trying to cut for crown molding, these little factional changes really affect the tightness of your joints. Another thing about the saw that bothers me is that when you rotate the table to lock into say 45°, when you screw the knob to tighten the lock it into place, there is just a little movement that causes it to be something off from 45°. I also don't like the bevel gauge indicator because it is just some label applied with some rivets. Mine seems like it could just pop off anytime. Not the best build at all. If the saw was square all around, I would be a pretty happy guy.
Overall the saw is not good enough for just once a wknd per year work. If I could have a redo, I would not by this saw.
Provided you have not gone and bought a Ryobi tool, I would suggest the following in place of it. If you only want to spend $200, try the DeWalt DW713 version. I think it is $219 at Lowes. In general though, at $200 the saws are just not great. I think the Dewalt is the best deal but maybe not. There is Ridgid and Sears. You might get lucky and get something that is both squared up and nice to use.
If I could do a redo, I would buy either the Dewalt DW717 or the Makita LS1016 saws. Both are over twice the price but are much better quality. I would suck up the extra 300 hit and just live with it. You can also find reconditioned tools online and save a bit that way.
Here's my take, sounds like you already have a Ryobi, use it, but my thoughts are, buy real, buy good, buy once.
Since you or I don't have a crystal ball, you never know how many times and for what you will be using the tool for.
And when you get old and decrepit you can either pass them on to your kids, or donate to a worthy cause or just plain sell it.
Good tools rarely loose value, if you buy it for $2 bucks today, you will sell it for either more or the same 30 years from today.
That being said, Milwaukee 12" compound slider, very well built and will last forever. Forget about that laser stuff, you can always buy an attachment from Irwin to do the same thing.
Hello, Grandeson, Ray the Hammer with a few words of wisdom for you. Let me start by saying that I am a Home Depot associate, so in the interest of full disclosure, let me get that out there first.
With the miter saws that I have used/owned over the last 20 years (I'm a blacksmith, also, and need to build jigs), Ive found that the two most important thing are a good quality blade, with the proper tooth count for your project, and the base of the saw itself.
The better the base is, the better the clamping mechanism is, the more stable it is, and therefore, the cuts will be truer i.e. 45 degrees is 45, not 44 plus a little bit.
There are plenty of saws to choose from, and I do agree that a slider is nice to have. Look at the base of the saw, though, you want beefy.
Hope that helps you make up your mind.
The Hammer
i appreciate everyones comments. I went and have the 1355la and the 2 year exteneded warranty for $17. I figure if its that bad I can always bring ot back for a new one, them to fix, or a credit to something else. If a credit is given then Ill bump it up to a much better unit. I just dont want to overbuy right now, i am a new homeowner who is constantly buying tools. So i have to save when i can. I understand, if i buy "junk" it costs more when I have to rebuy. All fairness though, I used my friends without any problem, and the frequency of me using it for now does not justify spending $300

Dutch Borstplaat / Easy, Simple, Basic Fudge
Recipe by kiwidutch
This is a recipe for a very old fashioned Dutch fudge called Borstplaat, and is posted to aid a request looking for a long lost family recipe... it comes from a small community dutch cookbook made by ladies who went to New Zealand between 1940 and 1970 and pooled information about all their favourite dutch recipes, substitutions etc becuase they couldn't get specialised ingredients from "home". No measurement was given for the butter so I have started with 2 Tablespoons and will increase/decrease it once I have made this myself, ditto the 1 Tablespoon of flavouring essence... if you make it before I do, I would appreciate any info on more precise quantities. The recipe also only states 'essence" and not what flavour, I added "almond" becuase otherwise the Zaar computer turns it into Spice essence LOL, Serving size is a total guesstimate so that the recipe could be uploaded. Again, once made, I will amend the recipe. ZWT REGION: The Netherlands.
Top Review by Kayne
My mother used to make this when I was a child. It must have been over 40 years since I have had it. I added a tablespoon of cocoa powder to it for a slightly chocolate flavor, which is how I remember it. Since I grew up eating this, to me it was wonderful. However, my 34 year old son, who has never had it, wrinkled up his nose at the sweetness. To me, it was ambrosia.
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 250 g sugar (8.8 oz)
- 4 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon almond essence (or other flavour of your choice)
Directions See How It's Made
- Moisten moulds on greased paper.
- Bring sugar and water to the boil and boil, stirring constantly until a drop of the liquid forms a thread when dropped from a spoon.
- Remove from heat, add flavouring of your choice, and then the butter.
- Keep stirring until the mixture becomes more solid, then pour quickly into the moistened moulds.
- Cool and remove paper and moulds.

Left Peterson air basr greenland a few days ago an set down at Hunter Airfield Georgia yesterday.
The base is deserted except for some old friends, The dead.
Made radio contact with a group from the 2nd South carolina. They have been staying out of the way an trying to reuild their lives the best they can. The word is that there is 3 small towns within 30 miles of the Airfield. Sam an I taxied our c130 into a hanger an got a hummer running an will make our way to a near by town called New Georgia where some of my old friends are waiting. More later when we get there. I do miss Iron Horse an the rest of you back north.
Maybe some day I'll return. Gods speed to you all.
No problems will arise. I don't know maybe I'll start a new life with Samantha, or maybe I'll just load up a hummer an hit the road an see whats left of this country thats now ruled by the dead an then was torn apart by us.
I'm sorry, I should have seen it comeing but I just let it blind me from reality. Now all has just about been lost an all have been scattered to the four winds.
All I can do is try to stay out of the way an help where I can.

Oxford Readings in Persius and Juvenal
by Maria Plaza (Editor)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
No reviews
References to this work on external resources.
Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0199216975, Paperback)The last decades have seen a lively interest in Roman verse satire, and this collection of essays introduces the reader to the best of modern critical writing on Persius and Juvenal. The eight articles on Persius range from detailed analyses of his fine technique to readings inspired by theoretical approaches such as New Historicism, Reader-Response Criticism, and Dialogics. The nine selections on Juvenal focus upon the pivotal question in modern Juvenalian criticism: how serious is the poet when he voices his appallingly misogynist, homophobic, and xenophobic moralism? The contributors challenge the straightforward equivalence of author and speaker in a variety of ways, and they also point up the technical aspects of Juvenal's art. Three papers have been newly translated for this volume, and all Latin quotations are also given in English. A specially written Introduction provides a useful conspectus of recent scholarship.

Burns And Poe Return To Casino Aztar Next Weekend – Win Tickets Here
They've been called "Country's Barbie and Ken" or even the "Sonny and Cher of Country." No matter what you call them, you better be at Hoosier's Lounge inside Casino Aztar when they come to perform March 23 and 24. They are Burns and Poe, and you will be entertained by their music and their sense of humor.
Keith Burns was one-third of the group Trick Pony, while Michelle Poe has played bass for the likes of Dierks Bentley and Hank Williams, Jr. So, with a ton of music experience between the two of them, Burns and Poe know how to put on one great show. But, in our case it's not one great show, it's 4 great shows. The performances are free, and will be Friday, March 23rd at 8pm and 10pm, then the same times again on the 24th.
Make sure you listen to WKDQ for a chance to win reserved seats to see them, as well as dinner for two in Casino Aztar's newest restaurant, Riverside Cookery. All our winnners of those prizes will be entered into a drawing for a grand prize package which also includes an overnight stay at Casino Aztar on Saturday night and breakfast on Sunday morning at Temptations buffet, plus you'll be able to meet Keith and Michelle.
Burns and Poe have been a regular guest on my show, whenever they're in town, and we've become great friends. Take a look at this video from their first trip to the WKDQ studios in 2010.

It's a fact that some video games have been shown to have beneficial effects for developing minds. The merger of video games and educational instruction has been coming for quite some time now, and at one particular school in New York City, it's already happened.
Quest to Learn is a school that views teaching with video games as an integral part of the curriculum. As such, proponents of alternative methods of education are watching it with great interest. Quest to Learn utilizes everything from problem solving to teamwork to actual game design to engage students in a way that is more interesting and empowering for the student — and quite frankly it's a very compelling model.
This NPR article goes into more detail about the strategies for learning, the hurdles that Q2L will have to overcome to garner respect from the education establishment, as well as how it will meet current assessment benchmarks (a.k.a standardized testing). Read the article and visit the Q2L site to form your own opinion. Whatever you think about a gaming school, one thing is for sure — we've come a long way from the Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?

My opinion would be if you had an allergic reaction to the CURL version, you will have the same reaction with the CARE line. Some people complain of this with Deva products. I personally use the DevaCARE low poo but have no allergy problems at all. I wouldn't risk it- the formulas are very similar, but some of the ingredients are in different orders. Here are the ingredients lists for the low poos.
DevaCURL low poo:
Water (Aqua, Eau), Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, Coco-Betaine, PEG-75 Lanolin, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Polyquaternium-7, PEG-7 Glyceryl Cocoate, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Melissa Officinalis Extract, Humulus Lupulus (Hops) Extract, Cymbopogon Sc
DevaCARE low poo:
Water (Aqua,Eau), Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Glycerin, Coco-Betaine, Polyquaternium-7, PEG-75 Lanolin, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Citrus Aurentium Dulcis (Orange) Peel Extract, Melissa Officinalis Extract, Humulus Lupulus (Hops) Extract, Cymbopogon Sch

A Supreme Court ruling Thursday came as a rebuff to President Barack Obama's attempted recess period appointments. He sought to pass appointments without Senate confirmation, an issue taken to the Supreme Court where he subsequently lost. The ruling served as both a check on executive power and a failed dodge of congressional gridlock, but those within the Obama administration have pointed out that the ruling could have been far more restrictive on executive power than the Justices chose to be. In that sense, much as April appointments ultimately proved to be act as predictive for the conditions in Washington at present, the Supreme Court ruling has its own implications.
For example, it reflects slightly on House Speaker John Boehner's (R-Ohio) plans to sue Obama over the president's recent slew of executive orders. Boehner claims they are an overstep on his power, and that "The constitution makes it clear that a president's job is to faithfully execute the laws. In my view, the president has not faithfully executed the laws" — according to USA TODAY. Some, including Obama, believe the suit is political maneuvering with very little weight behind it.
Depending on how you look at it, the Supreme Court's ruling may either be a sign that the court is moderate on reigning in presidential power, as the ruling could have been much more restrictive than it ultimately was, or a sign that the courts are open to constraining some of the powers in favor of what some argue is a better balance. Of course, the suit would likely not make it all the way up the chain of courts for some years, but Boehner says his concerns over the balance of power will remain. "This is about defending the institution," he told The Washington Post.
In April Obama faced a great deal of opposition in trying to push his nominees through Congress in what was eventually a bipartisan struggle, with Democrats and Republicans both objecting to some of his candidate choices. At the time it was considered a possible sign of difficulty to come, that he could be looking at two more years of blocked or delayed nominations and a general atmosphere of non-cooperation and efficiency. This has proven to be true, at least in the months that have passed so far.

Colin, Jonah & Melissa: Variety Creative Impact Awards Brunch Buddies
The 25th Annual Palm Springs International Film Festival is well underway, and on Sunday (January 5) a smattering of stars showed up for Variety's Creative Impact Awards brunch.
Colin Farrell looked dapper as he hammed it up with director Paul Duane at Parker Palm Springs, sporting a grey suit and black tie.
Meanwhile, "Bridesmaids" babe Melissa McCarthy and her director husband Ben Falcone were all smiles as they enjoyed all the pomp and circumstance.
And Jonah Hill rubbed shoulders with festival director Darryl McDonald and writer John Lee Hancock while also defending his new flick "The Wolf of Wall Street."
Hill told press, "I don't agree with anything (the characters) did in the film. The point of the movie is that criminally these people didn't get punished for what they were doing. That doesn't mean that this kind of bad behavior and excess and treating people poorly didn't lead to a bad ending for them."

Australia Don't Love Them Ho's…
Let's get this straight from the gate. Australia was colonized by the British as a penal outpost (extra nullus). The most dastardly Britons were sent there to kill off the indigenous peoples. Now some two hundred years later we find that the country has forgotten their roots as the final destination for undesirables.
More than racism and supremacy, which this is certainly a product of, the fact that the Australian government is denying Snoop Dogg access to their country is blatant censorship. Snoop has had his difficulties repeatedly here in the states and he did have that one incident at Heathrow Airport, but no one was killed. Hell, shots weren't even fired. So who do the Australians think they are for denying Snoop his right to enter their country?
Snoop is being denied his right to work freely in an open market. Let's see how many freedom-loving capitalists chant 'Free Snoop' at the top of their lungs. If Snoop doesn't work then he can't buy uniforms for the Pop Warner team he coaches, and he certainly can't afford those diamond studded dog leashes that he makes women wear. Dickies and Chuck Taylor's can be found at any Salvation Army store so I'm sure Snoop will still be able to afford his wardrobe.
I wonder how many other rappers will come to stand alongside this blacklisted Black man? Do you think we'll see a political movement of pop musicians like we saw when everybody refused to perform in Sun City, South Africa? Hell to the no. Rappers are your most cowardly and greedy animals. Some rapper is figuring that with Snoop's inability to enter Australia their availability moved up the queue. Rappers might be the worst profession in the world when it comes to establishing solidarity for the preservation of someone else's career. Okay, that's not accurate, crackwhore is the worst profession is those regards, but rappers are a close second.
So now I've decided that I will boycott Australia until they return Snoop's eligibility to enter the country. This means no more Snapple Kiwi-Strawberry drink for me. You know kiwis come from Australia? No more shark fin soup for me either, but in a pinch I will still enjoy barbeque baby fetus since that comes from Korea. Most of all I won't watch any 'Crocodile Hunter' reruns. Let's see who those television sponsors get to buy their microwave snacks now that I am no longer tuning in.
Free Snoop Dogg!

Welcome to WebmasterWorld Guest from 184.108.40.206
This is a feature where one can list the time of day and days of the week they wish their ads to run. Google will automatically start and stop the ads based upon advertiser settings.
In addition, one will be able to change Max CPCs based upon time considerations.
This feature will be released in June.
This feature is tied to the Time Zone Settings [webmasterworld.com] of an account.
How businesses are expected to use the feature:
Small Businesses: Set their ads to run during normal business hours. This will ensure that their phone doesn't ring at hours when they aren't in the office.
Sophisticated advertisers: Measure ROI based upon Time of day and day of the week. Then ads can be paused or CPCs changed based upon ROI considerations.
It's a very welcome release from Google, and should allow many a new level of control.
The 'coolness feature wish list'.
Not sure how many would ever use this, but it would definitely be one of those 'wow' offerings.
Allow a small business to tie their Google Calendar to their AdWords account. A SME could then set their appointments in the calendar, and as their time became too busy to answer the phone (think massage therapist who only has one table, a plumber who is out of the office on a call, etc) their ads would be automatically paused by the ad serving system.
With this new feature I'm expecting that you can schedule your ads to start at 8am UK time and finish at 5pm if you want to.
So there is no real reason not to accept UK time for your Adwords account.
If you stick with US time this might just cause more hassle for you in later months.
Does anyone know if Adsense is also going to move to local time
this is going to be a major issue to address, thanks for pointing it out. now i'll wait to migrate till adsense is also ready with timezone setting.
its better to wait then to experiment as, as of now we can choose timezone setting only once
Does anyone know if Adsense is also going to move to local time? otherwise my reporting for the two will be out of sync.......
For the present, AdSense is not moving to local time. That said. I'll make sure the right teams know that to do so would be desirable.
wow......finally i am seeing atleast one of the request to adwords advisor resulting in implementation.
This is great news Google and thanks for seeing it through AdwordsAdvisor!
I can absolutely not take any credit - though I assure you that I do pass feedback from this forum on each and every week to a really large number of folks who have asked to hear it. And it is taken very seriously indeed. ;)
Speaking of feedback to pass along, the thread below (always one of my favorites) has sunk pretty far down the page...
Google Adwords Features I'd Like to See, #6
<edit> fixed unsightly typo </edit>
[edited by: AdWordsAdvisor at 8:45 pm (utc) on June 5, 2006]
Thanks, but here's the problem-I can reset my time zone in the uk and I can do it only once so there is no return to Pacific Time. Also the day setting is not available in the UK so as yet I cannot set my start and finish times-so it looks like I would be locked in to a midnight start for my campaign-seems odd that I should be offered the facility to set the time zone but not yet the timing of my campaign-will someone tell me if I can set my start/finish times yet in the UK? If not now, when?
AWA can you give us any idea when this feature will be made available?
natim, I've learned over time that it's best not to mention a hard date - as there is always the possibility that it could end up being earlier or later. So, rather than being wrong later on, I'd prefer to quote from eWhisper's first post, below. That's about as precise as I can get. ;)
This feature will be released in June.
Well done Google! :)
Kewl: just got scheduling on my (UK-based) AW a/c.
Does everything that I want so I'm taking it for a spin!
ObBug: it seems that the "v" button to copy your schedule to other campaigns in a multi-campaign edit does not work.
PS. And it is a shame that the Scheduler and BO cannot paly together...

Vine Talk: How to navigate the 2009 Bordeaux vintage
(Robert Whitley is the publisher and managing partner of wine website Wine Review Online www.winereviewonline.com and the host of an online radio show "Whitley on Wine." He also oversees several international wine competition. The opinions expressed are hid own.)
By Robert Whitley
NEW YORK (Reuters Life!) - It may come as a surprise to those who don't live and die by the (famous wine critic Robert) Parker scores that vintages of the century are rather common in Bordeaux, where the most collectible and thus the most expensive wines in the world are produced.
Since the harvest of 2000, we've had three. I kid you not.
It isn't clear whether the phrase was first uttered in jest or, more likely, to promote sales within the Bordeaux wine trade. What's important to know is that when, on those rare occasions, the Bordelais harvest fully ripened grapes, they are likely to celebrate another "vintage of the century."
So as the grapes were gathered in the fall of 2009, they partied like it was 2005. Something akin to what happened in 2005, when they partied like it was 2000.
It is a vicious cycle for anyone who collects or invests in Bordeaux, for it inevitably means a price spike is on its way. To soften the blow, serious wine collectors and merchants with deep pockets often purchase Bordeaux en primeurs, using what are commonly called Bordeaux futures.
The buyer thus enters into a contract to purchase the latest vintage of Bordeaux at the earliest (and theoretically the lowest) price for delivery of the wine in two to three years.
As the price tends to rise on a great vintage between the time futures are offered and the wines reach our shores, historically they've been a good investment. In a normal world, 2009 would be no exception. Bordeaux from this vintage is outstanding across the board. Continued...

: Bandanas - couple of questions
I have a brown paisley bandana, but when I went to knot it at my nape, it was a real tight tie. It measures 21 by 21, after machine washing & drying.
Are there bigger ones on the market, & where?
Are there on-line or store-bought instructions for how to use bandanas
other than
(1) folded up & placed along the forehead, put under the hair & knotted at the nape & (2) folded in half into a triangle, put under the hair & knotted at the nape?

wow and it took this long to invent animated PNG 's
Great point! lol.
Overall, who's excited about this?
.apng is a new format that's currently being supported by Firefox 3 & Opera 9.5
It's an animated .png format that retains all the great perks of transparent png's without the loss of colors, like the .gif format.
Though it's not supported by Safari & IE, it will just display the first frame in those browsers.
Here's a link w/ info and an apng assembler to make your own!
I see the future of this coming very soon. Check it out!
I do that too! That would be great.
• Ghosts of the Great Lakes myspace.com/ghostsofthegreatlakes
• End Of Reason myspace.com/endofreasonmusic
Seems fishy, hopefully Envato will step-in and question these guys. Hmmm….....
I've had that happen with a template I thought was good enough too.
I viewed your template, and it looks nice. It seems like it's missing something. Hmmm…. maybe icons? Not sure.
@jonathan01 [insert applause here]
Good point.
I'd like to see a section devoted to .gif animations.
Again, I'm not complaining. Just thought I was showing a point on the site where there might have been a weakness.
Now, I realize I'm wrong (and maybe just a little spoiled), it actually is a fast turnaround, compared to other sites.
I do realize you get a faster response from the Envato Team if you just post a Thread (or search an existing ones) with your problem.
Thanks again for being very helpful.

The company adopted the new standard ahead of most other groups. Under old accounting rules, the black hole would have been even bigger. Analysts said the move to FRS17 boosted its bottom line by around £50m. The Marconi pension schemes, with around 60% of their assets in bonds and cash, have 84,000 members, but only 15% of those are making contributions to the fund. The company pays in around £25m a year plus £16m to make up for past liabilities.
One pensions expert said: 'When the pension deficit is this large compared to the market value of a company, it is worrying both for scheme members and shareholders.'
A spokesman said the UK pension fund is 'virtually fully funded' and most of the deficit was on German and Italian pension schemes. Marconi refused to say whether it plans to shut down its final salary scheme.
Convalescent telecoms giant BT, which shut the doors of its final salary scheme to new members last year, owned up to a £1.8bn pension deficit, but said it was an improvement on the £4bn of red ink in September 2001. It paid £360m into the fund last year.

Keeping Up with Web Development
Each time I come across a new trend or style of building websites, I wonder: should I be keeping up with web development in my own site? The most recent innovations to catch my eye are responsive design and grid layouts. Neither of these are particularly new, but responsive website designs work particularly well for mobile devices without needing a separate design. So, despite the fact that my site is already mobile friendly, and the fact that I've already redone my site a few times, I feel the need to use this new responsive framework I've found and implement it into my website. I am also thinking about using a grid layout or creating a grid layout template for future use.
Responsive layouts vs Mobile versions
Responsive websites adjust according to the browsers width. This works very nicely, but has its disadvantages. Adjusting to the browsers width seems like a great idea, but what happens to elements that are built to be large, such as banners or large images? Some templates deal with this problem by having a header that isn't visible on mobile devices. This is a double-edged sword. What if the banner looks great on a tablet but doesn't show up when the site is viewed from a mobile device? Mobile versions are great because you have control over how a mobile visitor sees your site. The disadvantage is that another version of the site must be created. In addition people with tablets may still be looking at a website designed for a phone or vice versa. Which is better? It is difficult to say. In the past, I would have gone with a mobile version. When I looked at some of the responsive designs today, I was so impressed that I changed my mind.
Look for the video tutorial later this week
If everything goes as planned, and I don't get swamped suddenly, look for a video with me adjusting the blank responsive template for my website. I'm feeling inspired and think this would be a great addition to my website. I will be using The Wright Framework by Joomlashack. It has a variety of module positions to work with, and it will hopefully convert well once I've recreated the 'look' of my site. Well, I'm off to look at the template and work on some CSS.

When a group of Western explorers ventures into the African jungle by helicopter, they're on the receiving end of aggressive pterodactyls and left amidst a colony of dinosaurs on the jungle floor. To complicate matters, there's a traitor in their midst.
This Brit novelty is pitched as "Jurassic Park meets Cloverfield", which sounds great until you see it. Spurred by sightings of Mokèlé-mbèmbé, "Africa's Nessie", Richard Dillane's grouchy cryptozoologist and his stowaway son (Matt Kane) head to the Congo. A monster-fodder cast then headless-chicken their way through a set menu of scream-and-run scenarios. Found-footage requires authenticity to work, but with its broad performances, direlogue and cartoony FX, this just flagrantly flouts the rules. It might be aimed at kids, but even pea-sized brains will wonder who carries on filming while they're drowning. Pturkeydactyl.

Harsher energy regulations coming in Obama's second term
(Reuters) - Energy companies likely will see more regulation in President Barack Obama's second term, with less access to federal lands and water even as the administration promotes energy independence.
With a pledge to cut oil imports by half by 2020, Obama during the campaign advocated what he called an "all of the above" approach to developing a range of domestic energy sources. He said, however, that he would roll back subsidies for oil companies and reduce the nation's reliance on oil by mandating production of more fuel-efficient vehicles.
"You are going to have less access to federal lands and tougher government agencies," said Dan Pickering, chief investment officer at TPH Asset Management in Houston.
Obama's energy strategy over the last four years has shifted away from focusing on climate change after a bill establishing a cap-and-trade system to curb carbon emissions died in the Senate in 2010 after a bitter partisan fight. The president's green policies also suffered a major setback when solar power company Solyndra collapsed last year after receiving a $535 million loan guarantee, unleashing a political firestorm.
Obama's team of energy advisers include Energy Secretary Steven Chu, a Nobel prize-winning scientist who specializes in alternative and renewable energy technologies but who regularly talks up the government's role in developing hydraulic fracturing technology. His top White House energy adviser is Heather Zichal, who has been an advocate for creating green jobs and tackling climate change by reducing dependence on oil.
Obama has pledged more support for development of renewable energy technologies like solar and wind, but he will need the support of Congress to extend or renew tax breaks that have underpinned the growth of those industries.
"Obama can love solar as much as he wants, but I don't know that a whole lot more is going to happen in terms of new, constructive policy," said Morningstar energy analyst Stephen Simko.
Perhaps most importantly, however, renewable energy faces major obstacles unrelated to policy, such as stiff competition from low-priced natural gas, a lack of infrastructure to connect large projects to the grid, and a global glut of solar panels that is putting their manufacturers out of business.
Here are more details on how companies in various energy sectors will fare under President Obama's second term: Continued...

Need advise on places not to miss.
Taking a trip out to the coast in August.
Spending first night in Moses Lake Wa. then heading to Seattle, take ferry to Bremerton, WA then heading to Aberdeen, WA spending the night.
From there, have 4 days to spend on Washington/ Oregon coast.
Just guessing, but with the drive, sights and stops should probably make it as far south as Gold Beach, OR before heading east. ( have to be in Pocatello, ID Thursday night, want to be at Three Forks MT for Rockin the river concert on Friday)
Never been there before, hoping someone can point out spots we do not want to miss.
wow just looked up your route on google maps looks a cracking run im not really envious. ok then i am best we got is scotland which is great but a little smaller
This is the planned route. http://tinyurl.com/5vers9v
Been to Seattle many times, by car, about a 10 hour drive.
I've heard driving down Hwy 101 is 45 MPH at best. Seems every time a guy goes somewhere he misses 1/2 the cool stuff. The neat little places to eat, little spots where you should have turned out to take a look.
I kinda mapped out a days drive at 5 to 6 hours (according to Google) with motel stops at Mosses lake, wa, Aberdeen Wa (short drive day, should be able to go to Oceans Shore and back), Pacific city OR, Gold Beach OR, Bend OR, Boise ID, staying with friends in Pocatello ID, then camping at Rockin The River in Three Forks, MT. http://rockintherivers.com
Figure with 5 and 6 hours rides down the coast line, gives a guy 5 or 6 hours of sight stops a day.
Would love to hear from someone who has been down the Washington/ Oregon coast. Cool places to stop, did I give myself enough look around time.
Hi LitesOn - having lived near Vancouver WA for many years, I traveled up and down the coast often. Assuming you will ride on old Hwy 101, the best places in OR are: Astoria, Seaside, Cannon Beach, Tillamook (for great cheese), the beaches from Newport south to Florence, North Bend, and Coos Bay. These are good tourist spots with biker bars, but there are also many other small towns all along Hwy 101. During the summer season, Hwy 101 is slow going with heavy RV traffic. Don't expect to cruise along at a very fast pace. If you average 30 mph you will be lucky. A lot of bicycle traffic too, which slows thing down a bit.
Hope this helps - have fun!
Mostly Clueless
Basically stock, debadged, coaster plates, relocated VR,
saddle bags, sheepskin seat pad, custom EFI tuning,
& other misc cheap JC Whitney parts
If you could, I would head more North once you get past Spokane so you can cross over the North Cascades HWY (20). This ride is rated near the top in most moto ride books. I do it every year and it shouldn't be missed if you're already coming this far.

Therma-Tru Offers Step-by-Step Installation Video
A newly-posted "Old House, New Door & More" video from Therma-Tru Doors provides step-by-step instructions on the removal of the door on a 100+ year old home and its replacement with an energy-efficient fiberglass entry door.
Licensed contractor Mark Clement offers insights on the removal of the older door, lead-safe practices and tips for installing a new Classic-Craft Canvas Collection door. In addition to the Therma-Tru door, he uses a Fypon urethane crosshead and mouldings to enhance the entryway surround.
"Remodeling older homes is always a challenge, especially if you want them to retain their period charm while being upgraded with today's most energy efficient products," says Clement, who is host of MyFixItUpLife, a radio show. "This video showcases the exact steps contractors can use to easily swap out an entry door on an older home and add urethane trim to accent that new entryway."
The YouTube video, which appears below, is designed to educate contractors on the exact steps necessary to successfully enhance an opening and install a fiberglass entry door. The door manufacturer also offers written instructions for installation and troubleshooting guides online.

Misfire 2001 DHS - fixed.
I have been chasing a misfire on my 2001 DHS with 102K miles for some time. Initially I suspected a vacuum leak or plenum duct tear, not the problem.
Occasionally it would give a code P300 (misfire) and a couple of times I got the flashing SES light for a few seconds.
My AutoXray scanner indicated the # 5 cylinder (rear bank) was causing the misfire code. Sometimes the count would be quite high and other times it was minimal. I swapped the #5 injector with the #2 injector to eliminate the easy and less expensive fix, not so, the misfire was still on #5 cylinder.
That left the coil module as the fault. Ordered a Delphi replacement from RockAuto for $170. installed it today and misfire is gone and no codes. Of course it would have been much easier if it had been a front bank coil module.

Experts: NH natives, perennials your best garden choices
By BARBARA TAORMINA
Special to the Union Leader | May 13. 2013 6:56PM
Several national gardening organizations are highlighting fragrance gardens for 2013. Tracy Brown of Fuller Gardens suggests diathus for gardeners looking for an easy-to-care-for perennial with a sweet smell. (BARBARA TAORMINA PHOTO)
Henniker's StoneFalls Gardens has Solomon's seal (genus Polygonatum) listed as the 2013 perennial of the year on its website, but Theresa Pearson, who heads up sales and design for the nursery, said gardeners should be a little cautious when they come across those titles and declarations.
And while Solomon's seal is a tried and true plant in a lot of local gardens, not every hot perennial will be a good choice for local gardeners who need to consider our highly acidic soil and long, rough winters when they make choices about what to add to their flower beds.
"Native plants are easy to care for. They are meant to be here," said Dave Dylewski, a master gardener who works at North Hampton's Fuller Gardens, which held its annual plant sale last weekend.
"People want to come home for work and enjoy their gardens," she said. "They don't want to work a couple more hours every day."
Purple coneflowers were all the rage during the '90s, and Judy Siemonsma, president of the Candia Garden Club, said they are now a staple of many New Hampshire gardens. This year, there are more varieties and colors including yellows, pinks and oranges that look almost tropical.
One Saturday, May 18, the Candia Garden Club will hold its annual sale at the Masonic Hall, and Siemonsma expects the hanging baskets of lofus to sell out quickly.
For something different, Siemonsma suggested that gardeners check out a money plant, a biennial plant that produces purple flowers in the spring, and silver coin-shaped seed pods in the fall.
Colen said gardeners typically try to stretch information on plants tags. If a tag says full sun, that's not negotiable - the plant won't do well in partial shade.
"We've been so disconnected from nature, but that's starting to change," he said.

I doubt it will be that bad. I haven't done the real math yet but by rounding numbers and a little guesstimating I know its getting close to 20 mpg with about 1000lbs in the bed.

Sucks about your blazer!
Yep its injected, I'm unsure of the gear ratio but it does have smaller than stock tires on it. The speedo reads 5 over so it has quite abit of extra gearing to it.

Personally I would try to find a trailer that is as light as possible to help out, I dont know what the total weight between a 7500 and 10000 lbs trailer is but a couple hundered pounds will have a huge difference.
I have a 7500llbs trailer I know Im at my limit for both truck and trailer as I tow with a 1/2 ton, but its my presonal limit, I have a little wiggle room, my truck is much newer and trailer brakes make all the diffrence.
I'll be flirting with the weight no doubt about that. But not driving like a retard and having trailer brakes will keep me and everyone else safe. I haven't checked what tranny is yet but either way I'll stay away from od. The trailer is going to have to be a heavier one as the blazer wont fit on a 7000lb trailer and hopefully have brakes on both axles.

The 5 senses of luxury purchasing
January 5, 2016 Leave a comment
A new infographic delves into what sensory experiences drive consumers to purchase luxury products.
The Shullman Research Centre reveals how and why different senses affect our purchasing habits, demonstrating differences between age groups, including which senses they are most likely respond to.
Other findings include how frequently consumers make luxury purchases and which senses complement which products.
Bob Shullman, head of the Centre, said: '17 million adults ranked touch as their No. 1 sense and virtually half of these consumers – 48 percent – reported that they bought a luxury in the past 12 months. Touch-oriented consumers are the No. 1 purchasers of luxuries'.
Take a look at the infographic here and tell us which senses you think influence your purchasing choices.

One of the things that I've found sort of confusing in the run up to the draft is the fact that Artturi Lehkonen seems to have fallen out of the first round in all but maybe one or two rankings. At the same time last year, Teuvo Teravainen was rocketing up the rankings. Statswise, Lehkonen seems to have a more impressive record than Teravainen did last year, though Teravainen probably had less ice time in his draft year. Even this year, despite being ten months younger than Teravainen and having less SM-Liiga experience, Lehkonen scored only a slightly lower points per game while while his average almost ice time was almost identical.
I could understand Lekhonen's fall if Teravainen had been considered a disappointment, but if anything, TT has improved his standing relative to his draft class. In the recent THN Future Watch, scouts ranked him as the 11th best player out of the 2012 draft class, even though he was picked 18th. I haven't been able to see much of Lehkonen, but he seems to be a pretty good skater, has a good compete level, and already seems good at using body position to compensate for his lack of size and strength. I know he's had injury issues, but his slide out of the first round seems to have started before his recent concussion. Do the people who have watched him all season really think that he's that much worse than Teravainen was in his draft year?
Another way in which Lehkonen compares favourably to Teravainen this year is even strength scoring. This year, slightly less than half of Teravainen's points came on even strength (48%), while Lehkonen scored 73% of his points during 5 on 5 situations.

We value the richness and importance of history on the local level; informing the larger picture by illustrating how local events and worldview impact the larger picture, and how the larger picture is manifested in local events.
We seek to discover the meaning in the stories told by contemporary sources.
We endeavor to treat all sources of information with respect, understanding the multiple perspectives that can be brought to bear on any issue or event. Releases are used to clearly delineate what may or may not be done with interview materials. Restrictions requested by sources are honored.
With the permission of sources, materials are archived at appropriate venues in order to make them accessible to qualified researchers.
Help make it happen for OHFR. Your donation helps us preserve the voices and stories of Maine and beyond. Donations can be sent to:
