Littlest BFS
It was all looking great. Friday, the boat passed its mechanical inspection. Saturday morning, the boat passed the final sea trial and Saturday afternoon we completed the purchase. Due to deteriorating conditions on Lake Huron, 18 knots and increasing and thunder showers in the evening forecast, we decided to spend the night in the previous owner's marina.
Saturday evening forecasted a Sunday sail of 10 knot winds from the south-east, overcast and no rain until later in the day. Perfect for a morning delivery sail up to the new harbour - a mere 13NM dead north. Is it *ever* that easy??
We awoke on Sunday to calm conditions... The WX channel claimed 5 knots and increasing at our destination with a few fog patches along the way. Ok, fine, no biggie, we'd motor until we caught some wind and make use of what we could. The hazy/fog (not too bad) moved in right away but no problem; lights on, radar on, vhf on and then we power on... well, about 1/3 of the way before the oil pressure on the diesel bottomed out and the engine has to be shut down. $#*! (and a few other non-printables)
No problem, there's a bit of a wind and it's building from 1knot - we're a SAIL boat, right? - so we toss up the sails and catch a breeze for a little while... I think it hit about 7-9knots briefly and then drops right off to nothing. nada. glassy great lake. And that's a problem.
We finally figured out that if we let the oil cool long enough, we could then run the engine for a short time before the pressure would drop completely... about 5-10 minutes of run-time for every 15-20 of cooling. It was going to be a long day to finish off the trip in those short bursts! We edged our way to port, a little at a time, stopping to bob around in the zero wind, zero current conditions... it was a bit stressful as my wife (new sailor) and dog were my only crew and neither were too amused at being becalmed without an engine.
Finally, with the port in sight, we prepare to make our final run in... we can't get around the commercial port, into the river channel then up the channel to the marina in one go. We end up becalmed in the gaping mouth of the commercial port... great lake freighters starting their engines and preparing for departure - you have no idea how slow 15 minutes feels while cooling oil and wondering if you'll beat the clock before those freighters depart! Since we can't make it up the channel in one go, we decide to pop in at another marina and call ahead to explain the issue... they graciously grant us use of a slip right near the entrance... sure enough, just as we power into their basin, the engine gives up again and I coast from the mouth of the basin, into the slip on the first go. You have *NO* idea how hard it is to keep from jumping up and down and screaming "BOOOO_YEAH" when you dock, without power or sail in an unfarmiliar port on the FIRST try and bring it in so nicely you can hand a helping hand at the dock the spring line when he doesn't even need it. Just nod and smile as if I had it planned out. :-)
After an hour of cooling at the dock, we fire it up and move into the inner marina without issue... tie up and breathe a sigh of relief. The sky behind us turns black, the lightning cracks across the sky and thunder rolls. *PHEW* Got off the lake just in time! 8-hours of the slowest, littlest, 'big freakin' sail' ever.
I'm home safely now but I think it's time to have a little chat with the previous owner. Like the oil, maybe I should cool off before proceeding.

Nicely done dude. I'd say that definitely deserves a Boo-Yah!
Funny how things tend to work out in the end. Staying calm and thinking things through certainly helps.
(High Five)
Good story. Sounds like something maybe clogging your oil pickup.
@Rob. Yes... staying calm helps. "Like a duck, stay calm on the surface and paddle like hell under water." Fortunately I have the ability to acknowledge my stress level objectively and then some ability to control how I deal with it. I don't have a lot of experience skippering my own vessels so I'm sure those more experienced would have been much less tense or stressed out than I was! A first time boat owner on a first sail on the new (to me) boat, dead in the water near freighter lanes with a storm approaching. Perhaps nothing for the old salts, but stressful for me. Accomplishing this has gone a long way to encouraging my wife about the importance of being self-reliant and reducing the panic reaction - "Yes dear, we will be ok because we can do this without outside assistance." Future problems will not seem so drastic.
Wandering star, here's a little background to the engine problems...
Going into this sale, I knew the previous owner had engine issues; He rebuilt the engine and, from what I can tell, did a good job of it. However, it clearly didn't fix the issue. The good news is that I had a little fore-knowledge of the problem so I didn't have to panic and call for a tow.
His original diagnosis was that the connecting rod bearing was worn and once the oil was warm, it would thin and escape causing a drastic drop in oil pressure. By revving the engine high enough, he could increase oil pressure enough to keep it running for a short while. He had the cam shaft measured and all was within spec so he replaced the con-rod bearing as well as piston rings and some other stuff... I'm not mechanically knowledgeable so I'll have to go look at the receipts again to see what all was replaced.
Clearly that diagnosis, or some portion of the rebuild, was incorrect.
The previous owner and I will need to have a little chat before I can get the engine to a mechanic as I believe our Sales Act may have an implied warranty and I don't want to break that by taking any action until speaking with the PO.
I checked the oil, it was clean & clear and once back in the pan it was showing correctly on the dipstick. I don't see any smoke in the exhaust. I'm not mechanically knowledgeable to have an opinion of the cause and will leave that determination to the mechanics who will eventually need to look at it.
Hopefully the PO and I will reach a gentleman's agreement to get this engine running in good condition.
Joe... (High five)!
Joe, you might also want to speak to whoever did that mechanical inspection that you say the engine passed. I'd be surprised if your sales contract covered any implied warranty but...50 states, 50 different takes on what's normal.
Maybe you'll get lucky and find out it just needs a new oil pump, or the heat was opening up something (gasket) and making the pump leak.
While you're cooling down, take the wife out for a good dinner and thank her for bearing with it. And of course, bring the doggie home a bag too. (G)
if it is an electric gauge i would check and or replace the sending unit before doing anything drastic
HelloSailor, I'm in Ontario which has the Ontario Sale of Goods Act which is legislation to protect buyer and seller in a transaction. I believe there are implied warranties in there about the condition of goods. I'm not a lawyer but know of its existence so I'll have to see if it's relevant. I'm hoping that won't be necessary as the seller is a stand-up guy so hopefully this will work out without involving the law.
Cbarg, It's an analogue gauge with an electric warning.
I'll have to defer to my mechanic(s) to tell me where to start. I know my one mechanic friend thought it might be better to stop throwing good money after bad and just drop in a new engine. The cost is likely less than $6,500 compared to $?,??? for tearing it apart and rebuilding a 27 year old engine.

I wouldn't change it. I agree that it is already distinctive and memorable.
AlumoAudio said
MorningLightMusic was referring to the proliferation of top tier music libraries that are now tracking their composer's material as standard on YouTube. Just by visiting the AdRev site, it's possible to see a couple of these libraries that have now chosen to partner with AdRev, as acting administrators. The point being, even users of the most premium, licensable music available, are now required to show proof of licensing, when using the music on YouTube.
MorningLightMusic said
Thanks for clearing that up! Didn't mean to confuse!
Got it. Thanks, guys!
AlumoAudio said
YouTube are getting very strict with this now, so users are now having to show proof of authorization on third party material as standard (regardless of where they got their music from) if they want claims removed or wish to monetize their channel. Things have changed greatly in just the last year or so, and that's just how YouTube is operating these days. No way around it.
MorningLightMusic said
So it's not just the royalty free stuff getting tagged. It's all third-party material.
Not sure if I'm misunderstanding something here. Am I to understand that now YouTube is moving to flag any and all videos using third-party music (which I assume means non-YouTube library music) to prove licensing rights, including those music tracks not even registered with Content-ID services like AdRev?
Sound wavy awesomeness! Way to go
Big congrats, O! Enjoy the grand milestone
I'm curious whether tables will simply shrink-to-fit, so that the whole table is visible? Or will it be truncated so that whatever doesn't fit in the screen is missing off to the left?
I'm asking because many of us at AudioJungle have these tables set up for our custom portfolio search/collection systems. It would be great if those tables would simply shrink down to fit smaller screens.
Hey, congrats to the winners! It was a fun contest with lots of great submissions
Great design! Where can I get a room like that?

Behind every Great Tractor Ride'n man, there is an even greater woman.ĀWith the eight tractors we took to the WHO Radio Great Iowa Tractor Ride, this year held in Sioux City, and the eight men drivers, there was a wife or, in my case, girlfriend.
In years past, some of the women have ridden along with their husbands for parts of the tour, and some have even taken their turn at the wheel (we saw plenty of women tractor drivers).ĀAlso in years past, the wives have driven cars out to meet their tractor-dive'n husbands at check points and lunch stops.
When this proved too cumbersome (the Great Tractor Ride is on a tight schedule, and rest stops are brief), the ladies just let their men go out and have their fun, while they stayed behind and had their own brand of entertainment.ĀThey shopped.ĀAnd Sioux City has plenty of great shopping outlets.ĀThe ladies also played board games—dominoes was a favorite, and Skipbo.ĀWorkouts at the motel's exercise facilities was also a favorite pastime.Ā
Of course, there were nice lunches at restaurants.ĀAnd yakking. Most members of our group were raised in the Monroe area, and even attend the same Baptist church, which made for conversation aplenty.
Contrary to popular belief, the 500-plus tractors on the WHO Great Iowa Tractor Ride do not travel in one long string.ĀIt would make it too difficult for motorists to pass.ĀGroups of about 50 to 80 tractors each are assigned with different start times.
As a kid, the tractors I grew up on were, for the most part, Farmalls.ĀThat's because in Monroe, there was a Farmall dealer.ĀSo, when John Van Ryswyk let me drive a Farmall 560 Diesel, I couldn't have been more pleased.
I still remember the gear pattern, the torque amplifier, and the sound they make.ĀThe diesel took a little gett'n used to, with the glow plug and such.ĀBut the power!Ā
Occasionally, I would get mixed up and, instead of decelerating, accelerate.ĀYow!ĀBut, hey, it's been more than 40 years since I've been on a tractor. The Farmall 560 was king when I was growing up, and still is, as far as I'm concerned.
Fuel stops are critical to any organized tractor ride.ĀAt the end of the day, and along the route, tractors are seen stopping at gas stations and convenience stores.ĀOne laughable moment involved John Van Ryswyk (the "trail boss") pulling into a Casey's store for gas.ĀThe whole string of tractors followed right in behind him as if it were the route.Ā
I was privileged to meet one of the founders of the WHO Radio Great Iowa Tractor Ride.ĀCraig Johnstone, of Grinnell, also known as "The Godfather of the Tractor Ride," along with the late Mark Pearson and late Gary Wergon, were instrumental in getting the now famous (or is that infamous?) tractor ride organized.
The first-ever tractor ride in 1997 had 119 tractors, and traveled from Grinnell to Ankeny. In the words of Craig Johnstone, "I take three days off from work, and vacation with 549 of my closest friends!"
There are now a number of tractor rides in Iowa and the nation, and there was talk of which was next.
For every tractor you see out there, whether it's in the field, or on the road, remember, American agriculture wouldn't be where it is today if it wasn't for women.

Marty Emailed me with this response to my thread.
"Taipan -
Since I cannot post in GunCo and don't want to open yet another account for yet
another forum, here are some pointers for some of the nay sayers over there.
35 x 39 or 9mm PPC was looked at, as a matter of fact that is why we first did
the 358 CQB based on the .30 Rem case. We avoided going with necking up
standard x 39 cases to 9mm to avoid potential disaster due to someone chambering
a 7.62x39 in that same rifle. Also, the case HAS to be improved to be able to
take the 9mm bullet, so that means a PPC like profile and NEGATES the ability to
use normal AK mags. Furthermore, it means either buying PPC brass or
fireforming. Option 1 is expensive, option 2 laborious and expensive. That
ruled out the 9 x 39 for us (it was the first round we considered)
Also, read Fortier's comments from the field user. Good energy, lacking
accuracy. This is partly due to the 9mm bullet design. THe 300 gr SMK has
superb BC and can deliver MOA accuracy at 500 yards. Plus, what most folks
don't know is that AP bullets are available for the .338 .... as well as that
frangibles are being developed ...
On forming the cases, all you do is take virgin 10mm, lube it and make ONE PASS
in the FL sizing die and you're done. That should address the one person who
ruled out the .338 for that. THe Leviathan is completely the opposite idea -
small bullet at HV AND you have to get their custom brass. The 10mm brass is
off the shelf. Reed Ammo is getting ready to sell loaded ammo.
Custom barrels - ANY of the rounds mentioned, 9 x 39, 35 x 39, 338 Spectre are
proprietary and can be gotten from one source only, unless you purchase the
reamers. Then you still need someone to turn the blank and chamber it. Just
buying a 35 Rem barrel gets you nothing ... nor just buying a blank ... you
still need the reamer, hs gauges, etc. If you get the AK clone that takes AR
mags with an adapter or something(there appears to be one because one customer
mentioned going that route and we are making a custom RPK foreend for them for
that reason) and use the SPC mags, you get 28 round capacity ...
I would like to think that for these reasons the 338 Spectre beats the 9 x 39,
the 35 x 39 or any other contender ....
Dave Fortier even likes the Spectre, as does the chief engineer for Arsenal ..."

Massachusetts Senate Special: Symbolically Significant, Practically Irrelevant
No matter who wins today's special election for Massachusetts Senate, Democrats will continue to enjoy large majorities in the legislature. But, Democrats would love to pry away the seat previously held by Scott Brown, the state's new Republican U.S. senator.
In practical terms, it's hard to imagine an election being more irrelevant than the special election today for state Senate in Massachusetts' Norfolk, Bristol and Middlesex District.
Democrats still will have a lopsided majority in the Massachusetts Senate regardless of which party wins today. The seat will be up again in November anyway. Today's winner will only serve a few months and probably have next to no impact on public policy. There's a decent case to be made that the fiscally conservative thing to do would have been to not hold a special election at all.
However, no one is calling this seat the "Norfolk, Bristol and Middlesex District." They're calling it Scott Brown's seat. As a result, today's race has symbolic significance. Apparently, no one cares as much about symbolic significance as Massachusetts' political parties -- with the possible exception of high school English teachers. From the Associated Press:
Democrats still are stinging and Republicans still giddy over Brown's stunning victory in the race to succeed the late U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy, and his subsequent rise to national folk hero status among GOP faithful has Democrats hoping that recapturing Brown's old legislative district would be -- if nothing else -- a moral victory and a Republican momentum stopper.
"I wouldn't deny that it has some special significance," John Walsh, chairman of the Massachusetts Democratic Party, said of Tuesday's special election.
Significant, Walsh added, considering the seat previously was held by "THE Republican, THE Scott Brown who can generate tens of thousands of people in Arizona for John McCain, and he's jetting to Hawaii and Pennsylvania and all that stuff."
Then again, you could make a case that the symbolic significance of this race gives it practical significance. Perhaps another victory will further enliven Republicans. They'll have hope of making real gains in Massachusetts and more of them will volunteer their time and donate their money to other candidates.
That, anyway, is a flimsy enough excuse for me to spend a little time talking about it. And, since both parties are actively contesting the race, it's a decent gauge of where Democrats and Republicans stand in Massachusetts, even if the result doesn't materially change where they stand.
That's especially true because Brown's seat is just the sort of one that Republicans will need to win if they're ever going to make significant inroads in Massachusetts. It leans Democratic and, in fact, elected a nationally noted Democrat prior to voting for Brown. But, it's somewhat less Democratic than the state as a whole.
For the Coakley-Brown race, Dave Wasserman put together an awesome spreadsheet (there is such a thing) of the 2008 presidential race by town in Massachusetts. Using that spreadsheet, here were the results of the two-party vote in Brown's Senate district.
Note that the first total only includes the results in the towns that are completely in the district. The second total includes all of the votes from the partial towns, meaning it includes some precincts that aren't actually in the district. I'd need precinct-level data to really tell you how many votes Obama and McCain received in Brown's seat.
Still, I'd say it's pretty clear that Obama's percentage in the district was in the upper fifties. Obama won 63% of the two-party vote in Massachusetts.
This chart also helps clarify to me why the Boston Globe described Needham as a key to the race between Democrat Peter Smulowitz and Republican Richard Ross. Needham, as you can see, is a large, loyal Democratic bastion that is completely within the district. Smulowitz is from Needham too, so you'd expect he'd do great there.
However, Smulowitz lost Needham in the Democratic primary against a local state representative -- he won the nomination by winning the rest of the district. Today's vote may hinge on whether any bruised feelings have healed.
We invite you to discuss and comment on this article using social media.

If the gauge serves any useful purpose, it is to flag high operating temperatures, which are detrimental to both the lubricant and the metal engine parts.
Dont confuse yourself with the synthetic vs petroleum oil arguements. Its all about hydrocarbon chain length and its relation to temperature dependent viscosity. All synthetic oils are hydrocarbons, just like petroleum based oils, they just have different polydispersity(better in synthetics). Think like a scientist not a lawyer. Molecular physics is molecualr physics, whether you pull the molecules out of the ground or synthesize them in a lab or plant the behaviors are consistent. the greater polydispersity of the mineral oils make them a bit better at lower temps.
Here is an article that compares the two if you care to read it. The (petroleum based)mineral oils actually lubricate better at low temps(thicker film before parts expand). this means that its even more important for synthetics to warm them up. Yeah, I used to be a metallurgist, so I know about expanding metals.

Seven protocols crash IEC 61158 party

Was it inevitable? Probably. Will it matter in the long run? Probably not—because the Ethernet train is thundering through.
Like self-invited guests at an end-of-millennium New Year's bash, supporters of seven fieldbus protocols showed up at a recent meeting on IEC 61158 and basically mugged the guest of honor, according to some present, by inserting themselves into the proposed fieldbus standard.
A mid-June ruling by the International Electrotechnical Commission's (IEC) Committee of Action (CoA) required its SC65C subcommittee to add a second protocol to IEC 61158 before it could become the long-awaited international fieldbus standard. This and earlier IEC meetings confirmed that IEC 61158 met the technical requirements to be the standard and invalidated six technically unsupported votes against it. These "no" votes sank IEC 61158 last year, so their later removal gave it enough votes to become the standard in January 2000.
Understanding, cooperation
However, the 40 attendees at SC65C's working group six (WG6) meeting here on June 21-23 were confronted by representatives from Siemens, Rockwell Automation, and Fisher-Rosemount, who unveiled a "memorandum of understanding" they'd signed two weeks earlier. In it, they agreed to cooperate on drafting the CoA's second requested protocol.
Given the years some players spent lobbying against IEC 61158, it might seem ironic there is now a cooperative effort to support it. However, this change of heart may be more understandable in light of the fact that IEC 61158 is scheduled to become the fieldbus standard in January 2000 even if a second protocol isn't ready for balloting beginning in October 1999 or if it's voted down by WG6 or SC65C.
Some observers say this new cooperation is just a last-ditch effort by some organizations to latch on and dilute IEC 61158, confuse future customers, and protect their investment in a huge but potentially less technically worthy installed base.
Might may make right, but cooperating companies must still have their protocol ready by Oct. 15, so the IEC's subcommittee can vote on it by the end of 1999. Since they don't have time to truly integrate their protocols into one, WG6 convenor Dick Caro says they will likely draft one 2,000-page or more document with multiple parallel protocols.
"I told the committee that if we wanted to do this, we had to understand that it is not what was the original direction of this committee," says Mr. Caro. "It's disheartening. We had previously been preparing a single interoperable protocol, and now we have multiple non-interoperable protocols. I suggested that this is not in the users' best interests, but it does satisfy the vendors present at the meeting."
Though it's possible the new bandwagon-style IEC 61158 could fail in this fall's balloting, Mr. Caro projects it will pass because it has such strong vendor support.
Aid to Ethernet?
When asked if Ethernet will follow gangster move tradition and eventually gun down its convening rivals, Mr. Caro adds the one consolation in the new IEC 61158 is the inclusion of the Fieldbus Foundation's high-speed Ethernet protocol. "This will grease the wheels for high-speed Ethernet versions by other protocols, such as Profibus and DeviceNet," adds Mr. Caro. "There are no ControlNet over Ethernet or Profibus over Ethernet products yet, but those who want to develop them can use work already done by the Fieldbus Foundation as a model to create future products."
Electronic ballots on the new IEC 61158 will be due from SC65C's national committee members by Dec. 15. Results of the voting will be available two weeks later on Jan. 2-3, 2000.
"One way or another, in the first couple of days of the new millennium, we will have a new fieldbus standard," says Mr. Caro.
Many become one, sort of
Fieldbus protocols likely to be added to IEC 61158 include:
Type 1—the existing IEC 61158 protocols
Type 2—ControlNet
Type 3—Profibus
Type 4—Interbus
Type 5—T-Net
Type 6—WorldFIP
Type 7—SwiftNet
Type 8—Fieldbus Foundation's high-speed Ethernet

Justin Bieber Reportedly Strikes Plea Deal in DUI Case
Getting off the hook for now, Justin Bieber has reached a deal with the judge in his Miami drag racing/DUI case.
The "Believe" singer will reportedly plead guilty to reckless driving, which will dismiss his DUI charge. He will also pay a fine and attend an anger management course, but will not be placed on probation.
According to reports, the judge was pushing to have Bieber appear in an anti-drug PSA, but both Justin's lawyer and the prosecutor felt that that would be "inappropriate."
Once Justin meets his requirements, the reckless driving conviction will be removed from his record.

Of all Victorian women poets, posterity has been kindest to Christina Rossetti. Her poetry has never disappeared from view, and her reputation, though it suffered a decline in the first half of the twentieth century, has always been preserved to some degree. Critical interest in Rossetti's poetry swelled in the final decades of the twentieth century, a resurgence largely impelled by the emergence of feminist criticism; much of this commentary focuses on gender issues in her poetry and on Rossetti as a woman poet. In Rossetti's lifetime opinion was divided over whether she or Elizabeth Barrett Browning was the greatest female poet of the era; in any case, after Browning's death in 1861 readers and critics saw Rossetti as the older poet's rightful successor. The two poets achieved different kinds of excellence, as is evident in Dante Gabriel Rossetti's comment on his sister, quoted by William Sharp in The Atlantic Monthly (June 1895): "She is...

The late Margaret Gowing, that excellent historian of the history of Britain's nuclear weapons, used to scold government ministers for not going to the archives, thus repeating the mistakes of their predecessors, or "reinventing the wheel" as she put it.
Gill Bennett is also an excellent illuminator of the archives, a former chief historian at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, whose previous work includes a biography of Desmond Morton, Churchill's confidant on intelligence matters, and a book on the "most extraordinary and mysterious business" of the 1924 Zinoviev Letter.
She has now written a refreshing account of crises that Britain's leaders have faced since the second world war. (Six Moments of Crisis, Inside British Foreign Policy, Oxford University Press). Bennett has chosen: the cabinet's decision to send troops to the Korean War in 1950; the 1956 Suez crisis; Harold Macmillan's decision to apply to join the EEC in 1961; the decision by the Labour government in 1968 to withdraw forces from east of Suez; the decision by the Conservative government in 1971 to expel more than 100 suspected KGB agents resident in Britain; and the response to the invasion of the Falklands in 1982.
They all draw out recurring themes of British policy, preoccupations, and dilemmas. They are also full of contemporary resonances, of questions that have returned to haunt cabinet ministers.
Take the decision by Macmillan, then pursued more energetically by Edward Heath - both Conservative prime ministers - to apply for membership of what is now the EU. Bennett shows that the US wanted Britain to join.
She notes that "the official historian of the UK's policy towards the European Community was convinced that his real motive was 'to retain the level of influence in Washington which exclusion from the Common Market threatened to reduce'".
Membership would also be good for the British economy, it was argued. Issues of sovereignty and moves towards federalism were deliberately played down - but they kept on returning to the surface, as we see now as David Cameron promises a referendum on Britain's membership, 40 years after Britain joined.
A recurring theme through the crises, as now, was pressure on the defence budget, brought on by the gap between commitments and available expenditure.
Bennett notes, in her chapter on the invasion of the Falklands, that in the first few months of 1982 "it was the Trident programme, not the threat to the Falklands, that preoccupied the defence secretary".
The Thatcher government's 1981 defence review was strongly criticised partly on the grounds that the navy's fleet of conventional ships was neglected in favour of the Trident nuclear missile submarine programme...

Your baby's bowels and urination are good indicators of her health, and therefore should be carefully observed.
The newborn baby's urine indicates if she is adequately hydrated. A newborn should pass urine quite often, at least once every 2 hours. The urine should be odorless and almost like water. A yellowish tint and less urination indicate dehydration. If you are using disposable or cloth diapers with absorbent pads, then these should be changed every three hours, or whenever the diaper feels heavy. It is best to use diapers only for outings and keep baby comfortable in soft, light, cotton cloth diapers especially during hot and humid weather. Keeping a good stock of cotton cloth diapers helps, as your baby would soil them often, and that you don't have time to wash them so often either.
The First Bowels
An infant has at least 3-4 bowel movements in a day. If your baby is exclusively breastfed, the stools would be loose, with some curdy formations. The first stool the baby passes is meconium, which is dark and greenish. The color of the stool becomes lighter by the second or third day to greenish/brownish and then to yellowish/light green. By the first week, the baby starts having regular bowel movements (2-4 per day). Bottle fed babies have rather more solid stools, and are more odorous than breastfed babies. Loose and greenish stools in bottle fed babies are a sign of possible infection and diarrhea.
Diapers are convenient and helpful, but should be used in a way that does not make the baby uncomfortable. Diapers can be of cloth or disposable. Disposable diapers contain plastic coverings on the outside, which can block air flow, and can be uncomfortable for the baby during warm and humid weather.
A diaper should be comfortable to put on the baby, should be soft, airy and comfortable to wear. For disposable diapers, there should be quick absorption and the material should not contain lot of plastic. These days many good diapers are made with a material that gives a cloth like feel. Second most important thing is the tape, which should be re-attachable, soft and very flexible, in fact made from the soft cloth like material and not plastic. Thick, plastic, less flexible and glue based tapes can hurt the baby. Such plastic diaper tapes are sharp enough to give cuts!
Cloth diapers should be worn with strings that can be tied, buttons or with re-attachable hook and loop fasteners. Use of sharp diaper pins should be avoided, as in a hurry that can hurt the baby or the adult.
To increase convenience with cloth diapers, there are absorbent diaper pads that can be used with the cloth diapers, but there are more chances of leakage. So if you are travelling, or outside, better use soft, disposable diapers.
Which brands are offering good diapers?
Huggies Dry Comfort series is a good buy. Huggies Ultra series is almost the same as dry comfort, but at a higher price. Maybe the absorption is better in terms of quickness and quantity, but otherwise they look the same as the dry comfort series.
Pampers have a hard plastic glue based tape, which gave cuts to my baby's thighs, and also are not very soft and airy.
Mamy Poko pants are also a good buy, and perform almost like Huggies, but they can be a bit uncomfortable in hot weather, because of the elastic belt.
Wipro range of diapers is also good, just a bit costlier.

When the three QBs, Eric Peterman, Andrew Brewer and Mike Kafka were signed by then coach Randy Walker, I asked the question, "Why 3 QBs?"Former QBs playing elsewhere on the present Cats
He told me that NU traditionally takes one outstanding QB a class, but this year [2005] they had a chance for 3 good QBs and they took it. Besides, the team is full of guys who took snaps for winning teams but switched around once they got to NU.
Chris Pool had always said that Peterman would eventually be a safety, and that one or two other QB recruits would wind up playing elsewhere on the Wildcats. Chris had a position change right, but not the eventual position for Peterman?
Eric Peterman moved to WR almost immediately as a true frosh, and almost immediately became an underneath threat. Last year's 12 receptions 2 TDs and 181 yards of offense made him a player you don't ignore, and playing with the likes of Shaun Herbert and Ross Lane gives him more than a few opportunities to make plays.
But the big news this week is that Andrew Brewer, who started just 2 games ago, is trying out the move from under center and into the WR rotation.
I'm sure he'll continue to take snaps, but the recovery of Mike Kafka will allow him to use his speed in the open field one on one, instead of trying to ellude the 5 or 6 rushers he saw during his QB starts.
Andrew Brewer isn't the first High School standout QB to change positions after arriving at Northwestern. Here are all the present NU players who list time at QB in their HS bios...
- TE Frayne Abernathy was all area QB his Junior Year
- LS Phil Brunner was honorable mention all state
- WR Lee Coleman First team all Area for 1,900+ yards as a senior at QB.
- DE/DT Mark Koehn played a bit of QB back in Kansas
- K/P Slade Larsheid was an honorable mention all conference QB.
- LB Chris Malleo held both the New Jersey Prep and HS passing records, had 6 TDs in one game.
- WR Eric Peterman was a top rated QB at Sacred Heart/Griffin.
- SAF Brad Phillips First team all state, Fab 33 team in Pittsburg Post for his play at QB. 1100 yards passing
- SAF Brendan Smith well over 4,000 yards passing during his career but was better as a Safety.
These 9 former, and 4 present QBs expect to be joined by one more in the class of 2007, Dan Persa, who has been lighting up his eastern Pennsylvania league this season.- da Coach
Persa also plays a little d-back, but has been playing half games lately because his team seems to be able to score at will.
The late Randy Walker always said that he like to recruit quarterbacks because of their athleticism - most QBs are the most athletic player on a HS team - and Walker liked good athletes first. NU always tried to take a good QB in each class, some stuck, some decided to play elsewhere.
We'll see if Coach Pat Fitzgerald continues that one QB a class trend. So far, it seems to have worked.

Let me preface this story with the fact that this was my first race in the WRX, I'm totaly stock.
I was returning from the grocery store last evening when a black Mustang Cobra (97ish?) coming in the opposite direction pulls a U turn right in from of me. I am forced to slow down and know I'm right behind him. So I figure I'll keep up with him to show him what is up.
So I'm tailing him pretty good for about a quarter of a mile. I pass my apartment enterance and we line-up at the next red light.
At the light, he looks over and says
Cobra: "Is that thing fast"
Me: "0-60 in 5.5 seconds"
Cobra: "Wow, I bet it handles pretty good too"
Me: "yeah, pretty good, probably not as good as your car"
Cobra: "what is that, the wr7?"
Me: "Nah, WRX"
Cobra: "Is that for off road?"
Me: "Yeah, you can Rally race it"
Cobra:' Nice looking car"
Me: "Thanks, want to run?"
Cobra: "Yeah, I'll run, but I'm having 2nd gear syncro problems"
Me: "That's okay, I still don't know how to launch it"
I start to rev and so does he. The light turns green and I get a jump, but I bogg
He is right next to me, until the top of first were I start to pull, I sifted WAAAYYY to early (5.5k) and got in second far to low on the powerband. he is even with me now and starting to pull. I was looking at the boost gauge and I was only getting 11psi
He gets about a car in front of me by the top of second and we shut down.
I was disapointed with my driving. I knew I'd loose, but I expected to hold him off for a little while.
Two things: I wish I could launch with out bogging, and shifted later so I would have gotten more boost.
That's my story, flame on

Finkel has no doubts.
"I'm sure the story of the flood and a boat to rescue life is a Babylonian invention," he said.
He believes the tale was likely passed on to the Jews during their exile in Babylon in the 6th century B.C. And he doesn't think the tablet provides evidence the ark described in the Bible existed. He said it's more likely that a devastating real flood made its way into folk memory, and has remained there ever since.
"I don't think the ark existed — but a lot of people do," he said. "It doesn't really matter. The Biblical version is a thing of itself and it has a vitality forever.

The Juneau Planning Commission has postponed reconsideration of the conditional use permit for a new boat launch and parking area at Statter Harbor.
The Planning Commission had planned to take up the second vote at its meeting Tuesday night. But CBJ Community Development Director Hal Hart asked for the delay.
He says he's been pushing the CBJ Docks and Harbors Department to resolve project issues that resulted in the Planning Commission's vote last month to reject the permit.
Chairman Mike Satre called for reconsideration, and told Docks and Harbors to use the time to respond to local homeowners' concerns about the project.
Port Director Carl Uchytil says he's done just that. He's met with Auke Bay Towers condominium association attorney and plans a meeting with the Statter family. The harbor is named after Don D. Statter, a former state public works employee and CBJ Docks and Harbors Board member, who advocated for Juneau harbor improvements.
Uchytil says he has "tweaked" the permit application, but believes the project as it is meets environmental and regulatory requirements as well as community needs.
"We're working diligently with all those concerned that the Auke Bay condo association and others to ensure the project is built that meets the demand of the boating public and we feel the he process have been followed diligently," Uchytil says. "And after 4 ½ years we think it will vastly improve the Auke Bay area and provide a benefit to all Juneauites."
Community Development Director Hart wants to see another draft plan by the end of this week that addresses neighbors' primary complaints, including the question of green space at the harbor.
"What would the folks who are living in the condominium – what do they see? And then from their perspective, are they just looking at a large parking lot, fill and a parking lot, or is that going to be broken up with some landscaping?"
Hart says the seawalk also should be attractive as a public place, not just a spot for harbor users, "so that coming in from the highway you'll be able to walk down that seawalk and have a progressive view of the shoreline. You'll see the stream off to your right as you're walking and the bay would be in front of you. Ultimately we want that to be a nice public amenity."
But Hart acknolwedges there's not much space for both parking and landscaping in the area.
Neighbors also are concerned about lighting, which Port Director Uchytil says is mostly resolved.
Hart says he's bringing up the design issues at the Planning Commission level because they're important to the community. The Statter Harbor Master Plan has been in the works for more than four years. New floats have already been completed.
The Planning Commission will take up the Statter Harbor conditional use permit on June 25th.

Are you looking for an option with no cover garment?
The reason I ask is I just came from a gun shop, and this big dude in overalls and an unzipped sweater struck up a conversation with me. About 20 seconds into the conversation, he pulls his sweater aside and shows me his Taurus .45 in a Fobus paddle holster. I know a lot of people don't like paddle holsters, but he said he doesn't use anything else. He was quite a character. Sure was proud of his holster and not shy about showing it off.
My guess is you are looking for a year-around option, and this probably won't help, but I thought I'd mention it anyway.

Lauren wasn't an enthusiast for online dating. When she was going to college, it seemed to her like an act of desperation. But the difficulties of meeting people once she started on her career path opened her up to the idea. And she got a good recommendation from a college friend. "Since she didn't match the 'desperate' stereotype I had in mind, I began to consider it."
This past June she joined CatholicMatch and returned to her childhood home of Indiana. But her old friend had moved on and getting re-settled was a difficult task. Lauren was also hoping to work in the Catholic Church, and was realistic about the prospects for social connections.
"Let's face it," she said, "Catholic churches aren't exactly brimming with single young adults."
It only took one day for CatholicMatch to start working for Lauren. She got an emotigram from Aaron. After a week of messages and calls, they decided to get together. The timing was truly providential—Aaron hadn't given up on the site, and with his subscription just a few days from expiration, Lauren didn't waste time once she found him. Since that first date, they've been together ever since.
Finding Aaron has just been one way that God has pulled Lauren's life together into Indiana. She soon got her dream job as a parish music director. Aaron then bought a home in the same town in which her church was.
"I feel so blessed to have Aaron in my life," Lauren told CatholicMatch. "He is everything I have ever hoped for, and more. In him I have found a loving and loyal companion, as well as a best friend. I feel that in Aaron I have finally found someone who shares my faith, my commitment to family, and my dreams for the future."
Whatever the future holds for Aaron and Lauren, it is surely a bright one. While CatholicMatch was able to play a small role, God's providence and the cooperation of a faith-filled man and woman are the biggest components of any success.

Nice... Like how you stopped it and then continued around the beginning. Real nice work man.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Evil vibes
I can see this being used as background music as some sort of evil tyrannical leader leads his troops towards battle :P
The only downfall I saw was the mid area when it got slow and quieter. This seemed to me more like 2 songs in one.
3:27 reminds me of Mario :D
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
... a march!
Some pretty interesting concepts in there...
Loved the piano solo in the end, that was pretty psycho.
The only thing that bugs me a little is the dynamics of the percussion and the piano..
The percussion has this typical "machine gun" sound..
Meh... so much for my attempt to review a classical song...
Rated 3.5 / 5 stars
Transitioning: Nice, when you stop at around 00:47 you get too quiet for too long. Then again at 1:45, too long for pausing and quietness. However, at 3:05, that one is great because of the drums. Every other transition of music is good.
Patterns: Until the end the piano and other instruments kept following the same pattern of playing with little variation to them. The drums especially. But the variation in it (like the intro and outro) was awesome.
Vocals: None.
Theme/ Feel: This is were it was inconsistent, I get a feeling of a climax or battle through most of it, but then a feeling of sadness near the transitions and maybe from a deeper perspective a sense of dread. Without vocals the theme is a bit harder to establish. I think the drums sort of gave it the theme though, but I'm not sure what it is.
Specifics: I feel the drums and another instrument should have opened instead of the piano, but that's just me. Good job over all.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
crap- good song
well, i also wrote a song like this on the organ, havent synthed it yet. but that harmonic minor progression at 00:26 is almost identical to the one i used. I suppose that it's a pretty generic progression though.
nice song.

Another Hip Hop Divorce in the works! Guess who else got hit with Paperwork!!
SMDH is 2013 the year of divorces? I feel like either people are getting married or they are getting divorced! Not leaving us with alot of hope but allegedly Timbalands Wife just filed for divorce after a 10 year relationship and 5 year marriage! On top of that she's requesting child support for her child she had in a previous relationship! Now I understand, if you take in the child as your own when your happy, you probably obligated to do so when your not. Either way hate seeing long relationships split.

Horse and Pit Bull are BFFs
Last week, I posted something that said there's nothing cuter on the internet than babies and puppies. Now that I've seen this video, I may say that horses and dogs rank right up there.
Meet Herbie the Pit Bull and Jabby the Horse. They're BFF's.
And apparently, having dogs and horses hang out really isn't all that uncommon. A commenter on the video says "you'll find many racing & stud stables have little dogs that keep the horses company – an old stable practice. If the horse has a big event due, usually the companion dog comes too, to settle the horse's nerves."
No matter the reason, you can enjoy 3 minutes or so…

Jewish Delinquent Children
By Falk Younker
Jewish Communal Service Association of North America (JCSA), Kohn & Pollock Inc., January 1, 1907
Between 28 and 30 percent of all children brought to the New York Children's Court are Jewish. The principal of one school with many such delinquents stated his belief that a great deal of the trouble is due to the fact that the parents of these children have a great struggle to earn a livelihood. They are at work practically all day long, and the task of preparing meals, besides taking care or the house, is usually left to one of the older children of the family. The children are on the streets nearly all day long, finding nothing to attract them in their dingy homes, and in the streets many bad habits are formed. Homes should be erected for these people, where they can live decently at a minimum cost, but should not be known as philanthropic enterprises which would wound the pride of the worthy poor. Recreation centers must be established wherever most needed, and here our Jewish youth must find healthy amusement to offset the temptations of the street and at such centers moral and religious influence must be brought to bear upon them.

How to remove rear PDC sensors?
I have a 2004 X3 with PDC and a rear sensor is wonky (I think it has been affected by water or condensation - it was setting off the rear beeper intermittently and now it is just failing all the time).
Does anyone know how to pop out the sensors from the bumper so I can check which one is faulty?
They pull out from the back, so the bumper would have to come off
Crap. :(
Okay, thanks.
Was there a lot of stuff to remove and was it necessary to tear the whole bumper down? Have the TIS on another computer.
The rear bumper is actually quite easy to remove and takes less than 40 minutes to remove if going slow. Google x3 hitch install xoutpost.
They have an excellent write up with pictures.
Thanks a lot, did not find the right keywords myself. http://www.xoutpost.com/articles/x3/...h-2006-x3.html This was *very* detailed and just what I was looking for.

Blood Conservation Clinic:
Blood Conservation Clinic
This clinic offers Pre-operative Blood Conservation Strategies for Adults.
The Blood Conservation Coordinator is located on the 3rd Floor in the Ambulatory Care area of the Carlo Fidani Building. Adults requiring surgery who are interested in avoiding blood transfusion may make an appointment directly by calling (905) 813-1100 ext. 5540. You must be having surgery at Credit Valley, or have a family doctor affiliated with Credit Valley Hospital. Alternatively, your doctor can also make the referral for you.
Many blood transfusions associated with elective surgery can be avoided through advanced planning and preparation, if there is sufficient time before surgery. Once you know that you are having surgery in the future, it may be important to ask your doctor for a blood test to determine your hemoglobin level. Generally, the higher your iron or hemoglobin level the less chance of requiring a blood transfusion during your surgical hospital stay. Not all surgeries result in a transfusion risk, so check with your doctor or the blood conservation coordinator first to determine if your surgery might require a Blood Conservation Clinic visit.
Blood Conservation strategies may include:
Oral Iron
Intravenous Iron
Pre-donation of your own blood (autologous donation)
Eprex® injections
A plan can be developed according to individual needs. It is important to remember that the more time before surgery the more beneficial when it comes to blood conservation and transfusion avoidance.

|Fravel, Deborah
Submitted to: Annual Review of Phytopathology
Publication Type: Book / Chapter
Publication Acceptance Date: 3/25/2005
Publication Date: 5/5/2005
Citation: Fravel, D.R. 2005. Commercialization and implementation of biological control. Annu. Rev. Phytopathol. doi: 10.1146/annurev.phyto.43.032904.092924. Interpretive Summary: The use of beneficial microbes to control plant diseases is called biocontrol. This article reviews the literature on commercialization and implementation biocontrol. There are currently 26 bacterial and fungi registered with the Environmental Protection Agency that can be sold as biocontrol agents against plant disease. The series of events from how these organisms were discovered, grown in great quantity, formulated, and applied is discussed. In addition to discovery of new biocontrol agents, recent literature emphasizes detailed studies on the ecology and mechanisms of biocontrol agents, multi-year and multi-location field studies, combining biocontrol agents with each other, with reduced rates of chemical pesticides, in rotation with chemical pesticides, timing of application, and safety of biocontrol agents. This information will be used by scientists developing new biocontrol agents.
Technical Abstract: The end goal of biocontrol research is to provide additional tools for disease management. To place these tools in the growers' hands, products must be commercialized. This article discusses the process of commercialization, commercial products in the United States, and parameters encouraging and discouraging commercialization, as well as discussing implementation of biocontrol. Current trends in research include more emphasis on microenvironment, details of mechanisms, production and formulation, delivery, extensive field testing, and combining biocontrol with other disease management tools.

Deer Hunting Forums (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/)
- The Lodge (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/lodge/)
- - Hunting Knife Design (http://www.deerhuntersclub.com/forums/lodge/8970-hunting-knife-design.html)
Hunting Knife Design
I have been doing some outside of the box thinking about hunting knife design. If you can put up with some background history of how I got to this way of thinking, I would like to explain my thoughts and ask for some opinions from some of the experienced hunters here. I may be way off base with my thoughts, or I may be on to something.
I have been making knives as a hobby for over 20 years and have been fortunate enough to use some of them on deer. As I use them I evaluate how they perform and then I go and tweak the design, or I then try something totally different.
Now I realize that just about any knife would work for field dressing and skinning a deer. You could even use a strait razor or box knife in a pinch. However the modern drop point skinner works very well for it's intended purpose. It does not work well for boning or butchering though, and most of the time is spent in the boning and butchering process. The field dressing and skinning can be done very quickly (just search You Tube) and hardly any mention is ever given to the boning knife. My thought is that there has to be a good design that works well for field dressing, skinning, boning and butchering a deer.
So let's start off with the first experience I had with processing an animal. My grandfather would use an Old Timer Sharp Finger for butchering cows. It did not hold a very good edge though. So I made my own version (the one below). The blade is four inches long by 1/8 inch thick and it is cut from a piece of one inch wide steel. It works well for skinning deer, but the swept up point kind of gets in the way for gutting and it's not too good for cutting around the anus. It is still very popular though and many people ask me to make them one, but it is just not my preference.
So then I tried a drop point blade. That is when I started noticing that the length to width ratio of the blade made a difference. For instance, I found that if a blade was under 3.5 inches and was an inch wide, I still felt as if I had control of the blade. With my for finger behind the spine of the knife, I could use the back of my hand and finger to push the stomach down and out of the way while opening a deer up. If the blade was any longer though, it felt like it was hard to control and was much more difficult to use. If the blade was ½ inch or less wide it could be four to five inches long and I could still pull up on the hide and slide the knife between the stomach and hide without having to push the stomach out of the way. The wide blades are also more difficult to make those sharp turns with, such as around the anus. The knife blade below was 4 inches long by 1 inch wide and a little too long for it's width. At least for my liking.
I originally made the knife below as a bird and trout knife, but I found it to be a great design for field dressing deer. It worked well for skinning as well. It is narrow enough to be maneuverable and the length wasn't too short. The only complaint was that it didn't work for boning or butchering. The blade was 1/8 of an inch thick so it was very stout.
The knife shown below was my last knife to finish. I used it on this year's deer. It worked quite well, but it is not my final revision. The blade is 1/16" thick by four inches long and had a fair amount of flex. It was a little too stiff and short for filleting some of the silver skin off of the larger cuts of meat. The blade shape worked quite well for skinning. The up-swept point wasn't too dramatic for gutting, but I did have to be extra careful not to puncture anything that I would regret. When opening up the hide on the legs, the point dug into the calf meat, but that is all hamburger anyways so I wasn't too concerned.
I guess I can only have four images per post, so I will have to show you my latest design in another posting.
Below is my next attempt. They both have the same blade shapes, but with different handles. The blades are five inches long by ½ inch wide by 1/16 inch thick. This should provide for good flexibility and maneuverability. I know that they look like a normal boning knife, but the blades have a bit of a drop to them as compared to most boning knives that have a straight back. They are also more flexible than most boning knives. It is kind of a mix between a fillet knife and a boning knife with a drop point. Since I have to wait a whole year to try them out, I was hoping that you guys could give me some thoughts and feedback.

100% handmade.one of the best knives Ive ever used and crazy sharp
great hobby there and nice knives. I usually use two knives on deer a drop point and then a boning knife.
Awesome hobby indeed, I admire you people with knife making skills.
I also use 2 knives when field dressing, I use a small thin folding fillet knife for the anal cut, it works very well.
Thank you. It would be interesting to see how many people use a fillet or boning knife out in the field.
I like fix blade knives for field work and once I pull the 1/4ers off then the boning knives take over.
I finished up a couple more boning/fillet knives yesterday. The disclaimer here is that I purchased the blades and just installed the handles. They looked like they would work well for boning even though they were not sold as such. The top one has a seven inch blade and is very flexible. It definitely has too much of a sweep to the blade to be useful as a field knife, but I thought that it would be worth a try for boning/butchering. The bottom one is actually sold as a steak knife but I thought that it would work well for boning. It's blade is five inches long by 1/16" thick. It is pretty stout and not as flexible as one would think. For the price it was worth a try.

Sticky Greasy Hair from Hair Spray- Mystery Ingredient?!
I need some help for a friend. She used some hairspray and ever since has had sticky greasy hair. Nothing can cut that stuff - even baking soda didn't work. Here are the ingredients of the spray she used (below) Does anybody know what would help with this?!?!
Ethanol, Propane, Butane, Methacryloyl, Ethyl Betaine/Acrylates Copolymer, Cyclopentasyloxane, Triacetin, Fragrance, Propylene Glycol, Aqua, Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hydrolyzed silk, Hydrolyzed Extensin, Vitamine (A, D, E, K) / Dimethicone / Behenamidopropyl Dimethylamine Behenate/ Hydrolyzed Wheat protein, Cocodimonium Hydroxypropyl Hydrolyzed Human Hair Keratin, PEG - 8
Cyclopentasyloxane is one of the more difficult 'cones to remove. Baking soda wouldn't do it. From the reading I did, it may need a few washings with a strong surfactant.
I'm not sure what a surfactant is? Any product suggestions? Or what ingredients is she looking for?
Depending on what she wants to do, she needs to read up on the ingredients to avoid. If she wants to use sulfates, she can use anything. If she wants to follow a CG or modified CG regime, she can't.

Note to parents/guardians: Emergency Preparedness Planning In addition to conducing fire and bus evacuation drills, schools need to practice for other kinds of potential emergencies. Two main ones include Lockdowns and Hold and Secures.
Lockdown Lockdown is defined as the restriction of movement during the time of a potentially serious violent incident. Schools go into lockdown when there is a significant and immediate threat inside or in the direct vicinity of the building. During a lockdown students and staff take secured shelter, lock all classroom doors, and remain quiet.
Hold and Secure Hold and Secure is for exterior emergency situations not related, but in close proximity, to the school. In this situation, any students outside the building come in. The exterior doors are locked and monitored by staff. Movement may be restricted depending upon the threat. School continues to function normally inside the building.
