Wiring my light fixture.....
I am putting in a new light fixture and I would like to ask a question about the ground wire that is on it.
The ground wire is silver in colour and at the tip of it there is an attachment to it that is gold in colour and is a small little ring.
In my circuit box at the ceiling I have all the ground wires together, and I would like to know how I would treat this silver wire with the small little ring at the tip?
Does that mean that I only attach the ground to the screw on the bracket attachment only? I don't worry about the other grounds in the box?
Connect the bundled ground wires (with a pigtail) to the fixture strap along with the fixture ground. If you have a metal box and the grounds are connected to the box, only connect the fixture ground to the strap.
The grounds that are in the box are all bundled together and grounded in the box. The box is metal.
So could I just put the ground from the fixture to the green screw on the bracket only?
Also, I have another fixture that has a brass wire (ground) that has no little circle attached to it. With this fixture would I wrap the ground around the green screw attached to the bracket and then bring it up and attach it to the bundle of grounds in the metal box?
Second fixture
Wrap the wire around the screw and tighten. No need to do anything else as long as the grounds are connected to a metal box.
What you need to get done is insure you have continuity between the ground wires and the fixture ground. Either thru the metal box or by direct connection.
Thank you very much for your help rjniles.
I will do that.
I went over many different ways of dealing with these those fixture straps with the author of Electrical Code Simplified. I had the same idea as you yummy mummy - since the box was already grounded and was metal, I could simply mount the strap to the metal box and wrap the fixture ground to the green screw. I was told this more often than not fails inspection because alot of times the metal box is not flush with the surface(eg. drywall) causing a poor ground connection with the fixture.
I was told three methods that would work the best as of 2008 code(these all assume you have left the ground wires long enough to work with):
1) Assuming you have two cables with two ground wires entering the box, wire nut these two together and connect one of the ground wires to one ground screw in the box. Run the fixture ground to the second ground screw in the box and disregard the green screw on the strap.
2) Assuming once again you have two cables with two ground wires entering the box, wire nut these two together along with the fixture ground. Run a pigtail from this wire nut bundle to the green screw. Connect one of the solid ground wires to one ground screw in the box.
3) Assuming once again you have two cables with two ground wires entering the box, connect each ground wire to its own ground screw in the box. Wire nut them together along with the fixture ground. I use this method the most, especially on boxes with only one cable entering.
The whole point is that you want to be able to remove the fixture without disturbing the grounding portion of the circuit in the event that you remove the fixture live.
There are many other methods that will work just fine but may not be code compliant. A forth option is to use a self threading screw I believe(not self-tapping) that needs to meet x amount of thread cuts and you could install your own third box ground screw for the fixture this way.
Sorry I've confused you even more, but there are quite a few alternatives out there. :)
What I ended up doing was wiring the ground wire to the ground screw on the fixture and then carrying it up into the box, and bundling all the grounds together (which are ground to the box also).

MSNBC's Shuster Suggests McCain Camp Encouraging Obama As Terrorist Talk
MSNBC's David Shuster knows how to treat a lady right. Unless that lady is Rep. Marsha Blackburn. Last year we noted how he played a gotcha game with the Tennessee Republican over the death of a soldier he mistakenly thought was from her district. He subsequently apologized.
Today the MSNBC anchor put Blackburn on the spot by calling on her to defend the McCain campaign in light of inappropriate remarks made by random people attending their rallies:
DAVID SHUSTER: Congresswoman, as the tone gets nastier on both sides, I want to ask you about some things that were shouted to John McCain and Sarah Palin yesterday during their rallies. First, here's John McCain raising questions about Barack Obama yesterday in New Mexico.
Sen. JOHN McCAIN (R-Ariz.): In short, who is the real Barack Obama?
[Audience shouts back, one man among them yelling Terrorist!]
SHUSTER: The audience member shouted terrorist. And now here's Sarah Palin talking about Obama's links to a 1960s radical leftie.
Gov. SARAH PALIN (R-Alaska): According to the New York Times, Bill Ayers is an unrepentant domestic terrorist. And part of a group, he had been part of a group that had launched a campaign of bombings that would target the Pentagon and our United States Capitol.
[Audience boos]
SHUSTER: An audience member there was heard shouting, "Kill him." Um, clarify: Does the McCain campaign condone in anyway the idea that Bill Ayers should be killed or that Barack Obama is a terrorist?

Following an oversubscribed first course aimed at managers involved in standardization, IEC, ISO and ITU, the three organizations that make up the World Standards Cooperation initiative (WSC), recently staged another event.
The thirty or so people who attended the Standardization Community Management Course, 11-24 April, Geneva hailed from a wide range of backgrounds, sharing just the need to understand more of the standardization process.
With titles like 'What are international standards?', 'Why are international standards essential?' and 'How are international standards used?', plenary sessions focused on the general, with breakout sessions hosted by the individual organizations going into more detail on their working practices.
Other sessions focused on the history of standards, the importance of standardization, legal issues, the working practices of the three organizations and how standards are marketed.
Attendees were taken on a field visit to see 'standards in action' at a close-by Swisscom telephone exchange. Among highlights were a description of what part standards will play in the offering of 'triple-play' (voice, video, data) services.

text: Last night, on a cop quota night (closing into the end the month, all of the cops run around grabbing anyone for anything, whether it be 2mph over or even a fast take off... anything to get the city revenue up) myself and my wife and one of our friends were out cruising in the Rex for the first time after finishing the 'break-in'. Anyways, the night was very slow, just people passing through going to Mammoth and not much action at all, so we decide to just screw with people instead. We pulled up next to two very disgruntled looking granola eaters in a beater 80s Accord that thought they were cool with their long dreads and falling apart car so they start revving at me and I just laughed and revved back. I looked ahead in the coming lane and there was a cop so I just revved and then when the light went green the Accord took off as fast as a stock Duh can be expected to (but still made it to around 50mph in a 25 zone by the time they passed the cops) and I launched like a snail and watched, laughing my ass off as the cop pulled the Accord and made their day that much worse, I can only imagine what their excuse was.

Jordan Brand will look to make noise in March with their impressive lineup that includes new colorways of retro shoes along with one of their new models this year.
First up is the Jordan 6 Rings that will be released in a "Venom Green" edition this weekend.
This edition, which is listed as the Black/Venom Green-White-Cement Grey colorway, is scheduled to hit shelves this Saturday, March 1st, and will retail at $160 per pair.
The newest colorway of the Jordan 6 Rings sports black upper part with venom green accents on the lining and outsole along with a famous elephant print on a large area of the upper part.
"The Jordan 6 Rings pays homage to MJ's six championships -this time in a new colorway. Featuring a black upper with Venom Green accents on the lining and insole, the classic elephant print is bold and distinct while tying all the Jordan elements together nicely," the shoe as described by Nike.
Aside from the Jordan 6 Rings, Jordan Brand is also expected to make headlines with the upcoming release of one of their new models this year - the Jordan Future.
According to Nike, the Jordan Future features a combination of basketball and street sneaker, which led to the creation of a very provocative-looking hybrid shoe.
"Paying tribute to the symbiotic relationship between the court and the street, the Jordan Future blends one of the brand's most iconic designs with a one-piece woven upper to create an entirely new look. The result is audacious, designed to provoke the continued evolution of the Jordan Brand's off-court lineup," Nike noted.
This shoe features a one-piece woven carbon fiber plate upper part with full length outsole along with a reflective threading on the women construction along with a gold lace tips.
The Jordan Future will debut on the sneaker market on March 15 in two colorways - Black/Infrared and Black/Glow.
Both editions feature a black upper part with the first one sporting an infrared semi-translucent outsole, while the second one features a glow-in-the-dark-colored outsole.
The Jordan Future "Infrared" and "Glow" will be available in select retailers worldwide for $185 per pair.

Cleansing facials even out complexions to create optimal canvases for professional makeup applications, and waxing and laser hair-removal treatments oust unwanted fuzz. Lime-green and chocolate-brown walls surround the spa, whose studio lighting helps keep clients from mistaking their stylists for their tax collectors.

Ken Stanborough, 47, said he had tried to claim a refund for his daughter Ellie's iPod Touch after he had dropped the device which then allegedly overheated and blew up.
The company responded with a letter which denied liability but offered to refund the £162 cost of the iPod on condition that the deal was kept "completely confidential".
Last week it emerged that Apple has been trying to stop publicity about iPod digital music players overheating and bursting into flames in the US.
Using the Freedom of Information Act, a reporter obtained 800 pages of documents from the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) in America about such cases.
The reporter was delayed for months as "Apple's lawyers filed exemption after exemption".
Mr Stanborough, from Liverpool, said that after he dropped the iPod it started making "a hissing noise".
"I could feel it getting hotter in my hand, and I thought I could see vapour," he told The Times newspaper.
He threw it out the back door and "within 30 seconds there was a pop, a big puff of smoke and it went 10ft in the air".
He subsequently spoke to an Apple executive and was then sent the letter offering a refund.
However it said that if he accepted the money, Mr Stanborough would have to "agree that you will keep the terms and existence of this settlement agreement completely confidential".
Any breach of confidentiality "may result in Apple seeking injunctive relief, damages and legal costs against the defaulting persons or parties", the letter added.
"I thought it was a very disturbing letter," said Mr Stanborough, who works in electronic security.
"If we inadvertently did say anything, no matter what, they would take litigation against us. I thought that was absolutely appalling.
"We didn't ask for compensation, we just asked for our money back."
He refused to sign the letter.
An Apple spokesman said it could not comment as the company had not examined the Stanboroughs' iPod.
Last year the Japanese government warned iPod Nanos presented a potential fire risk, saying there had been 14 cases in the country where the players had caught fire and two people had suffered minor burns.
In March, a mother in Ohio began court proceedings against Apple, after her son's iPod Touch allegedly exploded in his pocket, burning his leg.

What to do if I married before my divorce was finalized?
Question Details:
I thought my divorce was over after my divorce hearing. A few weeks later I got married to my new husband. About a week later I received my final divorce papers in the mail. It was only then that I realized the divorce wasn't finalized until after the date of my new marriage. Is my new marriage valid or void? Am I breaking the law?
Ouch. Well, yes, you have broken the law. Technically you committed bigamy, as you were still married when you entered in to the new marriage. That is also technically called bigamy. As a result, the law in your state would consider the marriage to your second husband void, not voidable. So no, it is NOT valid. You need to get help here with making things right. If you intend on staying married then you may have to seek an annulment of the second marriage and then remarry. If you do not want to stay married then just seek the annulment. You need to tell your present spouse about this. Good luck to you.

Dealing with the Loss of Unconditional Love
Everyone who loves them says the same thing: The only thing wrong with pets is that they just don't live long enough. And it's true. Their lifespans are shorter than ours. Someday, they'll be gone.
For many, our pets are closer to us than some members of our own families. They live in our homes for years. They sleep in our beds and take us for walks, regardless of the weather. We tend to their needs; they tend to ours. The relationship is often liberating and intense; we can be ourselves with our pets more easily than we can with many of the humans in our lives. Good times or bad, they're there for us, comforting us, forgiving us, and spurring our imaginations. Their habits become ours, and vice versa. And no matter how young or old we are, they keep reminding us how much fun it is to play!
Pets don't care if we sing off-key; they don't judge, criticize, correct, or demean. We carry their photos on our cell phones. We confide in them. Sure, they can manipulate us, but what are treats for? More often than not, the unconditional love between humans and pets flows both ways…and when it stops, when the object of such pure affection dies, it truly can devastate us.
"It's just a…"
When people we love pass away, no one is surprised to see us grieving. It's natural…to be expected. We can look to friends and family to provide sympathy and understanding and give us time and space to experience our feelings and arrive at some peace.
But when a pet dies, it's often a different story. People we thought we knew and trusted often consider grieving for a pet strange, even silly. "It's just a dog," they say. "It's just a cat."
They have no idea.
Pets are important members of our families. Considering how much emotional support and companionship they provide, it's natural and healthy to feel intense sorrow when they die. But knowing its natural doesn't make it easy. Step number one: acknowledge your feelings. You don't have to justify how to feel to anyone. Your love for your pet is all the permission you need to grieve his or her loss.

Grief, and where it takes you
In her groundbreaking book "On Death and Dying" (1969), Elizabeth Kübler-Ross delineated five stages of grieving, which apply as much to losing a beloved pet as they do to the death of a dear person. Of course, everyone grieves differently, and Kübler-Ross did not propose a five-step recipe for living through loss. Rather, the list presents a dynamic and fluid process. For some, the process is more or less sequential; for others, it develops its own rhythms, with feelings that overlap, leave, return, and often collide. In any case, most of us experience some aspect of all of these stages. Taken together, these insights shed light on where we are, what we can expect, and how we can care both for ourselves and for those around us.
1. Denial. Denial is a defense mechanism that dulls the shock of loss and gets us through the initial surge of pain. It's that raw time when, just after a pet's death, you could swear you heard him in the other room, "attacking" his favorite catnip mouse. Or you see her coming around the corner with her food dish in her mouth…or sitting by the door, asking to go out. But it's not your dog you see by the door; it's a shoe. And it's not your cat you hear; it's your grief — and it feels as if it's everywhere, inhabiting every space your pet ever occupied, including that emptiness in the pit of your stomach. Denial is both confusing and comforting, and it's crucial for helping you realize how much you loved your companion and how deeply you miss him or her.
2. Anger. Denial is often followed by anger, which arrives when reality sets in. Grieving people can direct their anger almost anywhere — family, friends, veterinarians, even the pet we loved so much. We know better rationally, but emotionally it's tempting to blame someone for the pain we're feeling, including ourselves. "The vet should have seen this coming and done something. I should have gotten a second opinion. Why did my pet leave my like this?"
3. Bargaining. Many people try to deal with their sense of vulnerability and helplessness by bargaining, often with a higher power, with themselves, or even with their lost pet. Sometimes the bargaining involves a sense of guilt about what they did or didn't do for their pet. Often it's a jumble of intense, confusing emotions that seem impossible to reconcile. "I'd do anything for just one more day," you think. "Anything!" If only I could take him for one more walk" "If only I could hear her purr one more time." If only…If only…
4. Depression. Sometimes depression is another word for sadness. In this state, grief can lead us to acknowledge the finality of the separation we must face. Some people withdraw into their own worlds; others begin to reach out to others. In both cases, mourners need support and patience. Sadness helps you acknowledge that you're wounded, and that's the first step toward healing.
5. Acceptance. This is in some ways the most challenging stage in the grieving process. Acceptance does not mean forgetting or betrayal. What it does mean is embracing the sweet, beautiful life your pet lived, as well as the sad fact of his or her death. It means seeing and forgiving life itself for having an end, a fact we all know intellectually but often lose track of emotionally. Acceptance also recognizes that no other pet could replace the one you lost. At this point, remembering can bring more smiles than tears.
Finding support
Everyone grieves differently. Ultimately, it's a deeply personal, individual experience. Nevertheless, others have gone through it, and you can reach out to them and profit from their stories. Misery loves company, they say, and today, people grieving their companion animals can find wise company in many forms.
Go online. More than ever before, medical and psychiatric professionals are acknowledging and honoring the unique human/animal bond by offering safe, respectful support for people grieving the loss of a pet. Look for pet bereavement groups in your area. Talk to your veterinarian; many practices offer bereavement services for grieving clients. Check out pet-loss hotlines, books, videos, and magazine articles. Some experts in the field advise keeping a journal of your memories and feelings; others suggest holding a memorial event for your pet. And remember, as someone who dearly loved a pet, you probably have sensitive friends who've experienced similar loss. Talk to them. They want to listen. They want to help.
Giving support
For many children, the loss of a pet is their first experience of death. Children may blame themselves, their parents, or the veterinarian for letting their best friend die. Once again, the Internet offers a variety of sites full of sound advice. One thing experts agree on is that honesty is the best policy when dealing with children whose pets have died. Trying to soften the blow with a lie ("Sandy ran away!") is the wrong approach. Not only will the child fantasize that the pet might return, he or she will feel betrayed after learning the truth. Being honest and gentle is best for the child and for your relationship.
Older people whose pets die face a unique kind of grief. If they live alone, they might feel an overwhelming emptiness. Death always reminds us of our own mortality, but for seniors this reminder has a powerful immediacy. For older people, loss accumulates, and a pet's death may remind them of other losses in their lives. Further, deciding whether to adopt another pet is complicated by the possibility that the pet may outlive the senior. For these and other reasons, older people need special support and should take steps to deal with their loss and reaffirm their reason for carrying on. If you are a senior, reach out to friends and family. Contact a pet-loss hotline, or consider volunteering with a rescue group. If you know a senior in this situation, make a special effort to help by providing a sympathetic ear and pertinent information. No one has to do this alone.
Other Pets
Surviving pets often grieve, too. Some refuse refuse to eat or drink, become lethargic or restless. Some become especially needy or "break training," especially if they had a close connection with the deceased pet. Pets are especially sensitive to changes in their environment. Your distress, body language, and sadness can make a pet anxious and fearful. Talk to your veterinarian about how you can help your pets cope. Keeping the household as normal as possible will help them — and you — regain your footing.
Adopting another pet
Once again, there is no universal answer to when you "should" adopt another pet. In fact, there are no "shoulds" in the grieving process. You know you'll never replace your deceased pet, any more than you could replace a beloved friend who's died. Individuals are not replaceable, no matter the species.
People say you'll know when the time is right to adopt, and chances are you will. For some, the best way to grieve is to adopt immediately. For others, it takes time. So pay attention to how you feel. Make sure you're ready to make the commitment again, even with all the emotional risks it entails.
Then, when the time comes, be sure to visit your local animal shelter. There will always be someone waiting for you. And the best way to honor the pet you've lost is to save the life of another.

For full access to all program material from every TV in the house in a Media Center core setup, the only real solution I see is having both extenders and a small HTPC at each location, with one HTPC as the primary recording device.
Obviously you have not been following any of the Ceton threads over at the Green Button forums. Ceton has proven to have excellent support with timely responses to all support questions. They are a model that other companies should follow. Tivo, Inc., should take a serious lesson from them.
|Most people that build their own HTPCs have enough savvy to troubleshoot their own problems. If they have problems with a specific piece of hardware then they need to contact that vendor for support. Google is your friend when it comes to finding solutions for PC problems. In other words, there's a plethora of support for DIY PCs if you just look around.
|FWIW, many people buy pre-built PCs from HP or other brands and install the Ceton tuner to create an instant Media Center PC. The PC manufacturer has their own support system in place to aid their customers.
|I seriously doubt that you could find a better solution than a CableCARD PC that allows you to record HD content in full HD with 5.1 audio or provide support for Blu-Ray playback with bitstreamed HD audio.
|Streamed content from the internet is a tradeoff at best, and BT sources are a mixed bag. The HD-PVR is probably the next best thing to CableCARD, but it requires too much extraneous hardware. The expense of using four HD-PVRs and renting four HD cable boxes would more than pay for the Ceton and most, if not all, of the PC hardware you'd need for a full-blown HTPC.
|I have not had the pleasure of using SageTV, MythTV, or any of the media center/DVR variants out there. If any of them supported CableCARD, then I'd agree that there may be better solutions available than WMC. Until that happens, WMC is the best choice out there for my needs.

Unfortunately, my local bakery was robbed at gun point about a week ago.
My wife and I wind up there at least once a week, and while it's not in a "bad part of town", we've had 2 friends robbed at gunpoint within 100 yards of it in the past couple of years -- one at an ATM and another paying too much attention to his IPOD vs. his surroundings.
While the bakery has excellent products, they have been posted as "no handguns" for longer than I've had my CCW. I've reluctantly continued my patronage although with less frequency than I would have had they not been CCW unfriendly.
A few days after the robbery, I thought I'd leave a comment on the local news site to point out the NO gun policy and it's ineffectiveness, and also to ask Buskens to change this policy. I also planned to stop by and ask them to consider changing their policy as well. However, when I stopped by today, I was pleasantly surprised that the no-gun signs had been dropped already. :wave:
I am considering how I may use this further with United Dairy Farmers, our local C-store chain, who also has a no-gun policy that is causing me to go out of my way to more ccw friendly chains.

Do you think this wall is load bearing?
We're looking to open up our stairwell which will help our small kitchen area feel bigger. We would take out the top portion of the wall and leave a 44" high wall.
The problem we're running into is if one of the sections we are looking at taking out is part of a load bearing wall.
The truss, that sits on top of this wall, is a standard gable truss. There is a span of approx 9' that is open after this wall ends. The ceiling is vaulted (see blue shaded area on diagram below).
A few questions:
1. Do you think this wall is load bearing?
2. What is the maximum span capacity for a gable truss?
3. If you believe this is a load bearing wall, is there a way we could remove the two studs in the center and try to reinforce what is left?
We are having a structural engineer out this week to take a look at it but I wanted to see what people thought and if there are any questions we need to be sure to ask him.
Thank you!
Layout of the area - wall to be removed is in orange.
Roof trusses run from left to right on this diagram.
This is the gable truss that sits above the wall.
Why would you believe a bunch of people you don't know which no credentials, over a local engineer????
That corner post does not look like it was designed to hold up drywall.
Who said I would believe them??!!
I am just curious as to what people think - they can give an educated guess if they're interested and I will let them know what the structural engineer says.
Being a DIY chatroom I thought others may have run into something similar and could share what they found out about their home.
Is their home exactly like mine? Probably not, but again, just looking for feedback and I will post on Thursday night what the engineer determines.
It will be interesting to see what the engineer says.
If your end truss was made by this company, then their website says you need a continuous load bearing wall beneath it.
Your gable truss between the ceiling elevations requires full bearing below.
It is not a "stressed gable", which would look like the flat ceiling common trusses but have vertical framing every 2' on center for the rake ceiling gable. At least the S.E will tell you the beam size to carry the roof load for that portion and to solid block fill the floor, down to the bearing wall below (hopefully one is there).
It would have been cheaper for the builder to get a common, rake studded truss, no worries...
I was up in the attic today trying to learn more so when the SE arrives on Thursday and I can share whatever I can.
I found out something new...
I tried to do a few layouts to help diagram it:
So... as far as I can see the gable truss has no support directly underneath it (ie. it does NOT sit on top of the wall) It is attached to the 2x4's that sit on top of the wall that are there to secure the drywall to.
Not sure if makes things better or worse...
The house was built in the mid 80's and we have lived here for close to 10 years. We haven't seen any cracks or indications that there are any support issues in this area, or anywhere else in the house, or even on the roof.
Any more feedback/ideas with this new information?!!
The gable studded truss is a non-supporting truss, it cannot support itself. It is being held up by the studs extending up from the wall below.
A stressed gable truss looks identical to the common flat ceiling trusses next to the wall, opposite the rake ceiling. S. G. truss has vertical nailers installed after the structural webs are built in and fastened. You only have an "end gable" studded truss- non-structural, it needs full support. "Google" structural and stressed gable vs gable truss design or wait for the S.E.
I made an error in the diagram:
GBR in MA - as far as I can tell the gable truss has no support directly underneath it. The first picture on my last post shows the drywall connected directly to the bottom of the gable truss. I understand that a gable truss can not support itself but I am confused on my house as I don't see anything directly underneath it - only that it is attached to 2x4's that sit on top of a 2x4 that is above the wall below.
Only another day and we'll see what the SE has to say.
Also, do you know if the SE is normally willing to give a written evaluation?
Generally speaking, the wall in the middle of the truss span should not be attached to the truss. For that reason, according to most designs anyway, it can't be load bearing -- trusses need to be free to move up and down (unless specified differently by the manufacturer).
Regarding your gable end truss. It looks like you're just lucky, and it's not been a problem. What you're probably going to need to do is install a beam under it. It looks like there's a 2x6 tieing all the drywall "studs" together at the top. If that 2x6 is tied to some structural element at both ends, perhaps it is functioning as a beam and holding up the truss.
To me, this looks like one of the bone head things some contractors do against the instructions that materials come with, that happen to work out (at least so far).
pjordan - the wall where the doorway was is not directly below a truss. I checked this yesterday when I was in the attic :-)
pyper - I have no background or knowledge in home building but wouldn't there be some type of home inspection completed during/after a home is built to make sure it is being built properly? We are the third owner of the home and I know we paid to have a home inspection completed before we purchased the home. Not that home inspectors are structural experts but I would assume a gable truss in the middle of the home might cause some alarm and at least warrant a closer look or recommendation to have a SE inspect.
Tomorrow night is the night the SE will be here- looking forward to his final determination!
If there are inspections (and if there were when the house was built), the quality of the inspectors and the scope of the inspection varies from place to place. Some really know their stuff, but some kind of don't. Some places inspect everything, some just a few key components.
But even if you've have the best, most diligent inspector in the world, everyone has a bad day now and then.
If they inspected the framing, it might have just been to check a few key items, like is the framing attached to the foundation, are the joists properly sized, are there clips attaching the trusses to the walls, and so forth. It might not have occurred to him to look to see if an end truss was installed in the middle of the building without proper support. Or maybe he didn't know it needed support -- they can't all be experts on everything.
It's also possible that there's something in the structure that we're not seeing in the photos. In general, the building code is supposed to be a representation of one way to do things that will work to provide a safe structure. You can do things other ways if you can convince the inspector that what you are proposing is at least as strong as the code.
Just an additional mention.... the gable studded truss that belongs on an end wall should be supported by the wall- continuously- and there should be at least a doubled joist in the floor under said wall to carry the roof load, if not also the floor loads. The 9' span is way too much for a 2x side nailed to the 2x bottom chord of the truss. The S.E may suggest sistering 2-2x's to the bottom chord to carry the weight of the roof load over that open span.
What's the verdict?

Australia need just one more win to inflict a second whitewash in three tours on their oldest rivals, but only a third in the long history of their hostilities.
Among those who have starred for Australia, alongside demon bowler Mitchell Johnson and prolific wicketkeeper-batsman Brad Haddin, is understated off-spinner Nathan Lyon.
If he has gone under the radar, however, over the past two months - even to an extent when his five-wicket haul in the second innings of the Boxing Day Test took him past 100 victims in only 29 matches - Lyon has started making up for it, by pronouncing that Australia were convinced all along they would overwhelm England this winter.
He played in the final three Tests last summer of a series won 3-0 by England, but joined a team then who were already sensing the tide would turn for them on home soil.
"We knew it was coming, to be honest," said Lyon.
"Yes, England beat us over there 3-0 - but it was a lot closer (than that scoreline) over there.
"We had opportunities but we fell over at the line, and here in Australia we've won the bigger moments and won them pretty well.
"It's been a big reward for what we went through in England."
Lyon is assured too in his own role, even if he knows it will not always make him headline news.
"I've felt that for a while now. I'm confident I've got the skill-set to get the job done," he said.
"It's good to contribute, but I'm more worried about the team.
"I'm more than happy to go unnoticed."
While Lyon can be certain of his place in the Sydney Test, starting on Friday, he will have to take a back seat again when the one-day internationals begin against England next week.
Captain Michael Clarke is one of six members of the Ashes-winning team set to face the tourists again in the 50-over format, after a New Year's Eve announcement of the squad for the first three of five ODIs.
Clarke, who sat out Australia's last ODI series in India because of his sore back, will return to take over the captaincy from George Bailey.
The latter, who made his Test debut in the Ashes series, will be Clarke's ODI vice-captain - and also included are Johnson, Haddin, David Warner and Shane Watson.
Combative opener Warner was dropped for the limited-overs series in England and India, but has since been back to his best in all formats.
Australian national selector John Inverarity said: "David Warner has won back his place in the Australia ODI squad with his outstanding recent form, not least in the domestic Ryobi One-Day Cup competition that was held in September and October in Sydney.
"Michael Clarke, Shaun Marsh and James Pattinson have been included after being unavailable through injury for the series against India in October."
Australia's 14-man squad for the first three Carlton Mid ODI matches (versus England): M Clarke (Captain), G Bailey, N Coulter-Nile, X Doherty, J Faulkner, A Finch, B Haddin, M Johnson, S Marsh, G Maxwell, C McKay, J Pattinson, D Warner, S Watson.

On Oct. 7, 1954, A Singular Newspaper Made its Debut
Celebrating The Georgetowner's 57th Anniversary
Ami Stewart, who worked as a sales representative for the Washington Star, told the Randolph sisters at Little Caledonia, a famed home goods store on Wisconsin Avenue, of her plans to begin a community newspaper. They encouraged her, and the Georgetowner was born on the fabric table of that shop, publishing its Volume 1, Number 1, on Oct. 7, 1954.
The newspaper grew with its news and profiles of a quieter time and homespun ads of retail along Wisconsin Avenue and M Street. It is a delight to look at the archives and interesting to see the story, written before the 1960 election season, on an N Street resident who was planning a run for president: John F. Kennedy.
Stewart ran the Georgetowner until the mid-1970s when she moved to a nursing home. Her assistant editor since the late '60s had been David Roffman, another transplant from the Midwest to D.C., who helped her along with others like Richard McCooey of 1789 Restaurant who sent meals to her home.
The newspaper office was at the corner of 28th and M Streets above Chi Chi's Poodle Parlor (the space is now Das Ethiopian Restaurant, the former Zed's). The Georgetowner moved from there to what was Crumpet's in 1200 block of Wisconsin Avenue and then across the street above Swensen's Ice Cream. Over the years, the newspaper has occupied space in Hamilton Court (31st Street) and Georgetown Court (Prospect Street). That's called getting to know your neighborhood.
Roffman took over upon Stewart's passing and gave the newspaper his own flare, especially during the go-go 1980s. He swept the streets with an elephant vac, getting his picture in a national publication, and called for Georgetown to secede from D.C. more than once. The crew of writers and sales reps included his brother Randy Roffman. Then arriving from California, writer Gary Tischler remains with the paper and is considered central to its heart and soul.
Here is how Tischler described his old friend, Roffman, who was given the lifetime achievement award in 2010 by the Georgetown Business Association, where he was once its president:
"Small community newspapers are tricky businesses — they're usually free, they depend on the kindness of local businesses to provide advertising revenue, they reflect and report on and are reflective of the community they serve. With all due respect to other such publications in this city, no other paper is so associated with place than the Georgetowner. And it's fair to say that Roffman, when he owned and published the paper, reflected the community in all of its facets.
"He wasn't just a publisher, and his efforts weren't only about stories, scoops, ads, deadlines and headlines. He was the village's biggest cheerleader and booster, acting as if Georgetown were a particular lovely, elegant lady who needed to be helped across the street. He sometimes acted as if she were a party girl, to be sure, but that was part of the times. Roffman would do stuff — he hosted parties, fund-raisers, publicized charity events (at good old, reliable Nathans), promoted festivals (the annual Francis Scott Key day), institutions (the Georgetown Senior Center was a particular favorite) and events (Volta Park Day). He got involved — he went to ANC Meetings and CAG meetings, not just to report on them, but to speak at them and make himself heard. . . . In the pages of Roffman's Georgetowner, the neighborhood became full bodied — it was the sleepy village and the noisy night time, it was contemporary and historic all at once. It was a classy place, but it was also democratic."
Today, owner and publisher Sonya Bernhardt, also with Midwest connections, has entered her 13th year at the helm of the newspaper which is now part of the Georgetown Media Group. She publishes the Georgetowner and the Downtowner, runs the business side, directs the group's presence on the web and social media and staff and interns. Her passions include the community as well as promotion of small and local businesses. She is also an avid fundraiser for various causes including research for cancer cures. With the newspaper, she is committed to the Georgetown House Tour, the Senior Center, Living in Pink, Volta Park Day and Francis Scott Key Park, to name a few local charities.
Here is her take on the media product: "Our publication reflects the Georgetown lifestyle, focusing on the arts, history, real estate, education, dining, health, fashion and philanthropy. With a print circulation of 40,000, the Georgetowner is mailed to all Georgetown residents and businesses and has a thriving website. The newspapers' distribution covers parts of D.C., Maryland and Virginia."
The endlessly energetic Bernhardt has put her mark on the newspaper whose "influence far exceeds its size," and taken it firmly into the 21st century. A portrait of founder Ami Stewart hangs above her office mantle. And, yes, the office is on Potomac Street, next to Dean & Deluca; it's been there for the last 10 years.

About this listing
Located perfectly between the Park and the shops, this is a great place for a single or a couple looking for a private, safe, clean, quiet comfortable studio apartment in just the right place to explore everything Joshua Tree has to offer. We have NO cleaning fees. We do allow pets IF you notify us beforehand AND you agree to help us minimize any stains, marks or fur.
We really would love to have you as our guests!!!
The space
The Studio itself is a completely private bedroom with its own entrance, bathroom, kitchenette, outside area and carport. In the bedroom you will find a queen-size bed with a memory-foam pad, firm and soft pillows, a table with two chairs, a small walk-in closet, books and games, extra shelves, heater, swamp cooler and mini-refrigerator. The all tile bathroom has a 12-foot high ceiling with a skylight. Towels, soap and shampoo provided. The kitchenette also has a high ceiling with skylight and it contains a two-burner hotplate, a huge sink, a microwave oven, a toaster oven, pots and pans with cooking utensils, coffee, tea, plunger pot, hotpot, cups and plates. The outside area has a table with chairs, grill and a wood-burning stove -all great for watching the stars at night.
The Studio is perfectly located for quick and easy access to both the Joshua Tree National Park (you can hike into it from your door if you would like) and the great restaurants and shops of downtown Joshua Tree (you can walk to them right down the hill one mile away). It is is literally on the boundary between civilization and wilderness.
Being on the edge of the neighborhood you will be on paved road with quick and easy access to all the great places to eat and shop in Downtown Joshua Tree. But it still feels like you are in the park. An amazing view of two bouldered hills is yours right from the patio. In the yard you are surrounded with native Desert Willows, Creosote Bushes, Jojoba and Joshua Trees. Here you might also see Roadrunners, Quail, Jackrabbits and possibly a Bobcat. Many times you will hear coyotes right nearby in the field. Also being close to the National Park provides a really dark sky at night making the Milky Way and all the shooting stars shine bright.
Coyote Hole:
A unique feature of the Guest Studio is that it is across the street from a canyon called Coyote Hole. The entrance is less than a third of a mile away. Coyote Hole is an amazing hidden canyon with ancient Native American sites scattered throughout. Here you will be able to see very old petroglyphs left by humans possibly up to a thousand years ago. This is an incredible place just to walk through and it is just right outside your front door.
What You Be Able To Do When Visiting:
-When you arrive you can quickly figure out the best things to do in Joshua Tree from the info center located right inside the door containing books, brochures and menus to answer any of your questions about the area such as where to eat or where to hike .
-You can walk or drive down the hill just one mile to find a restaurant for dinner or get groceries to cook something yourself in the kitchenette.
-You could go on an evening walk on the trail through the petroglyphs in Coyote Hole right outside the door.
-You can spend the whole night looking at the stars under the dark skies of the Park around a fire outside.
-You can wake up in the morning sauntering down the hill to the cafe for coffee and breakfast.
-You can take a full day to explore the Joshua Tree National Park without worrying about setting up your tent or getting ready for bed in the cold dark during the Winter.
-On Saturdays you can walk to the certified farmer's market and bring back the fresh produce to cook in the kitchenette.
-You could even ride your bike on paved road from your room all over the Park and come back to a great shower and bed.
-You can travel with your pet when staying here and even go for a walk with your companion on a real trail.
From the Guest Studio you can hike, bike, horseback or drive into the Park and yet also walk to the restaurants and shops. You can leave the car parked in the private carport the whole time if you would like. It is a private studio on the very edge of downtown Joshua Tree that offers a trail through boulders, prairie and brush into the Joshua Tree National Park right outside the door.
Other Things To Note:
Sorry we cannot accommodate more than two adults although additional guests such as infants, small children and pets are welcome.
Amenities include a private room and carport, full tile, heated bathroom with shower, kitchen (with cookware & utensils), private outside room (with wood-burning stove), fresh sheets and towels -and soap and shampoo as well, wireless internet, table and chairs, mini-refrigerator, dresser, closet and shelves, outside patio furniture.

Interaction with guests
I love meeting guests!! I love our guests!! I love Joshua Tree!! But It seems I will be obliged to travel more than would like so two wonderful people, Clare and Blain, are here as well. We know it's not always possible to know arrival times to meet so we are just as fine to leave the door unlocked with the key on the table for you if you would like. We are always available to contact with questions. I am happy to take anyone on a short tour of the petroglyphs if I can but it looks like I will be out of town a lot so I am deeply sorry if I cannot. But if not, there are also maps in the Studio to guide you in your own explorations through this amazing canyon. We truly look forward to having you as our guests!

Maria Brink or Heidi Shepherd: Pump or Dump? [POLL]
So, you're at a bar hanging with two ladies. At the end of the night, the two ladies say to you: 'Who you taking home tonight?' You think long and hard, examining looks, brains, and most of all, how fantastic of a night you had with the two lovelies. Of course, this is all hypothetical, but you see where I'm going with this?

Expanding Ezekiel
Full Product Description
Timothy P. Mackie focuses on the quantitative differences between the Greek and Hebrew text witnesses of the book of Ezekiel and explores the interrelationships between the production, transmission, and interpretation of scriptural scrolls by Jewish scribes during the late Second Temple period. A comparison of the Hebrew Masoretic text and Greek Septuagint versions of Ezekiel provides a large body of evidence for the phenomenon of "scribal expansion," instances where scribes added words and phrases into the body of the text. Mackie starts off by laying out a methodology for identifying scribal additions among the many textual differences between the Hebrew and Greek text-forms of Ezekiel. Having compiled an index of such quantitative differences, he proposes a descriptive typology for categorizing and analyzing the different types of additions in order to understand their purpose and significance. The body of the book is a commentary on all the various types of scribal expansion. The scribal additions in Ezekiel show how scribes expressed reverence for the text's divine authority, by not only by preserving the sacred text, but supplementing it in order to increase its coherence and clarity for future readers. They also demonstrate an awareness of an emerging collection of scriptural scrolls in the post-exilic Judean community and represent attempts to coordinate Ezekiel with other parts of that collection. Ultimately, the scribal expansions in Ezekiel provide a glimpse into the intersection of scriptural interpretation, scribal production, and the transmission of these texts. Mackie's Conclusions are relevant not only for text-critical scholarship on the Hebrew Bible, but also for research on the early history of Jewish scriptural exegesis and scribal culture.
Expanding Ezekiel by Timothy P. Mackie was published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht GmbH & Co KG in April 2015. The ISBN for Expanding Ezekiel is 9783525540336.

I cannot find a comfy position to sit in because if I sit too long my butt goes numb, any way i sit or lay my back hurts and if I stand up hunched over leaning on something...my back kills me! My stomach feels so tight....I think the swelling it setting in. I also need to eat better and drink more water. I have not been a very good patient since coming home :-( I am taking my 2 percocets every 3.5-4 hours as prescribed. Over all, the recovery isn't too bad. I had 2 c/s prior so I had a small idea what to expect. I am not handling the sitting around very well..I overdid it today. Husband not so nicely pointed this out....noted. Must take it easy *sigh* I could really use some words of encourage of just an 'i've been where you are, hang in there!" TIA!

London's weekend warriors get a night in the ring
By Peter Myers
LONDON (Reuters) - Marno Herinckx is bruised and bloodied after a particularly vicious pummeling in a hot, floodlit boxing ring.
But Herinckx is no battle-hardened prize-fighter. He's one of a number of white collar London office workers who have spent the last few months training to box and tonight is fight night.
"It's like every moment was frozen in time. It was like fight or flight," Herinckx told Reuters after his bout.
As he spoke, the packed crowd gathered at an arena in southeast London were already erupting in a roar for the next city professional swaggering towards the ring, swathed in laser lights, smoke-machine effects and the pumping beat of music.
Herinckx and the other 37 boxers strutting their stuff on Friday night have spent the last three months on a grueling three days a week training routine run by Chrissy Morton, founder of Bad Boy Promotions.
"As soon as one of the guys on signs up, they all have to," Morton told Reuters. "It passes from one to the other. If they don't do it - well...it's a rite of passage."
"We train the white-collars like professional boxers; they go from being a normal person in the office to someone who can go out there and fight in a ring."
Morton doesn't charge for the training period, relying on the boxers to raise money through ticket sales to their friends and colleagues. Many of them sold as many as 50 tickets. Continued...
