39-acre spread
17th-century Hett Farm to be auctioned in Portsmouth
PORTSMOUTH -- The first of two open houses at a 39-acre historic farm in Portsmouth drew more than 20 interested people Tuesday, ahead of the July 30 auction, an auctioneer said.
Chris McInnis, vice president of North Hampton-based real estate auctioneer and broker Paul McInnis, Inc., said about halfway into Tuesday morning's open house at Hett Farm that "somewhat of a varied group" of potential bidders had stopped by to take in the broad pastures, outdoor riding areas, barns and colonial-style, two-story house that dates to 1810.
McInnis said the plot on Peverly Hill Road, near Route 1, has operated as a farm since it was owned by Thomas Walford in the 1600s and has been in the Hett family since 1940. Much of the property is under a conservation easement that restricts development, except for a portion of about 2 acres that includes the house, barns and a roughly rectangular area immediately surrounding them.
The barns can hold up to 17 horses. The property's appraised value was more than $1.17 million as of 2012, according to online data from the Portsmouth Assessor's Office.
"You're only going to appeal to a certain type of buyer for a farm like this," McInnis said. "A buyer that appreciates the conservation easement … and either has a personal use or a business use for the farm."
McInnis asked that names of potential bidders who visited the farm Tuesday not be published.
One potential bidder, a Rochester resident who said he grew up in Portsmouth, expressed appreciation after taking a walk around.
"Much better than I thought it would be!" the man exclaimed, speaking to McInnis and auction manager Justin Conway. "There are some really nice architectural features inside the house."
The three-bedroom home has about 2,700 square feet of living area, according to Portsmouth assessor's data.
"It's a really interesting place — it's steeped in history," the man said of Hett Farm, which has a large, fenced front pasture directly along Peverly Hill Road. "It's been a landmark."
Turkey and deer strolled around the edges of the property Tuesday, while Portsmouth resident Jane Meyer led her chestnut paint horse, Chrome, on a walk near one of the riding areas, where several other horses grazed. Meyer said she had boarded horses at Hett Farm since 2007.
McInnis said that the sprawling property has a rural air, even though downtown Portsmouth is just minutes away by car.
"You can't find this (elsewhere) in Portsmouth," McInnis said. "It really has an amazing feel out here."
Paul McInnis, Inc., will hold a second open house at Hett Farm from 4 to 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 23, and also is offering inspections by appointment. The auction is 6 p.m. Wednesday, July 30, at the farm. Only registered bidders are allowed to attend. A $50,000 deposit is required to bid.
Chris McInnis said the company also handled the 2008 sale of the 14-acre Towle Farm in Hampton to Smuttynose Brewing Co., the 2012 sale of the 184-acre Bakie Farm in Kingston, the 2012 sale of the Hobbs Farm in North Hampton, and others.
"It's an emotional kind of property," he said of Hett Farm. "For something like this, why wouldn't it be? It's very difficult to replicate."
The potential bidder from Rochester took a moment Tuesday to gaze out at the back pastures before stepping into his truck.
"If you can walk out there and have your morning coffee, (it) doesn't get much better," he said appreciatively.

Proxim Wireless WORP Sync
WORP Sync - The First Common Synchronization Technology
With the growing demand for outdoor wireless applications and limited license-free spectrum, there exists a clear and growing deficit of available interference-free frequencies. Large scale wireless Internet service providers (ISPs) and organizations with dense networks are compelled to reuse the limited available spectrum, often resulting in high self-interference, poor Quality of Service (QoS), and reduced throughput.
Proxim with its new WORP Sync feature helps overcome these challenges by allowing efficient collocation of more and more radios at a cell site. To understand how this is accomplished let us first take a look into synchronous absent aka asynchronous network topology.
Conversely, WORP Sync coordinates the transmit timing between all the BSUs within a network. The timing mechanism used as a clock for these synchronous networks is either a satellite signal or other clock sources such as ethernet synchronization modules. This ensures all BSUs within a geography where they may interfere with each other transmit and receive at the exact same time. This applies not only to BSUs on the same tower, but all BSUs within a given area that can potentially "hear" each other and hence improper timing can corrupt Tx and Rx data streams.
Proxim Product Families
Using a combination of WLAN, Wi-Fi Mesh, WiMAX and Point-to-Point backhaul technologies, Proxim enables a wide variety solutions. Proxim's end-to-end broadband wireless solutions and services have helped more than 235,000 customers around the world enable new applications, increase productivity, decrease expenses, gain operational flexibility and create new business opportunities.

Parents want answers after Indianapolis girl's shoes were duct taped
A child with Down Syndrome returned home from school Monday with her ankles and shoes wrapped in duct tape. Tonight, her parents want to know who did it.
Someone wrapped the duct tape so tightly that the eight-year-old girl said it hurt. Shalynn Searcy attends Westlake Elementary School in Wayne Township, and her parents, Nate and Elizabeth Searcy, are demanding answers.
"It hurt," said Shalynn, describing the tape wrapped around her shoes and ankles.
Her parents took a picture before removing the tape, and they started asking questions.
"It was wrapped from top to bottom and all the way around all sides of her ankles, probably an inch and a half to two inches," said Elizabeth Searcy.
"This is how you do my child? This is not acceptable," said Nate Searcy.
Shalynn is a special needs student at Westlake Elementary. Her mother says she would hear from the school about Shalynn removing her shoes, but Monday there was no call, just Shaylnn coming home with her shoes taped to her feet.
"They could have called like they normally do but they did not call and I could have come to get her like I have before. But they did not call," she said.
Wayne Township Schools gave Eyewitness News a statement saying, "We have had the opportunity to meet with the parents of the student involved in this reported incident and have begun our own investigation. We have notified the Indiana Department of Child Services."
Suggested Links
The Searcys have decided Shalynn will not go back to Westlake.
"Not after this, no. They have crossed the line with this one," said Nate Searcy.
Now they wait to learn from the school exactly who used the duct tape on their daughter, leaving her in pain.

Dishonored - Why you shouldn't buy it @ VG247
VG247 repsponds to some common complaints about Dishonored with some sarcasm:
It's too short.
No it's not, you prat, and I spent quite a long time saying so. I know what you want from games, friend: you want a wee popup saying "mission successful" and a breakdown of how amazing you are at pressing buttons on your plastic input device of choice.
For years you have been trained to believe that this is how things are done – games give you a task; you complete them in as direct a fashion as possible; an achievement unlocks; this repeats for 12 or so hours and it feels like $60 well spent. If it lasts for less than 12 hours you write an angry forum post.
That's fine, dude, and I wish you well in your mole-like ingestion of breast-fed entertainment. But if you can give up the speed run mentality for a couple of minutes, you're going to be more than compensated for your precious, precious time (which has been assigned a dollar value of game cover price divided by minimum hours spent on one aspect of the game).
Even once you've tried out both extremes of the chaos metre, there's loads to find in terms of side quests, branching storylines, and lore – let alone the potential for mechanical exploration; Arkane's beautiful semi-sandbox has only been out a few days and already people are doing marvellous things with it, suggesting a YouTube phenomenon in the making.

Mali Islamists bulldoze independence monument
AFP Monday, October 29, 2012, 12:09 pm TWN
BAMAKO -- Radical Islamists controlling northern Mali on Saturday took a bulldozer to an independence monument in Timbuktu, where they have destroyed many world heritage treasures in recent months, witnesses said.
"At the moment I can see eight Islamists with a bulldozer. They are busy destroying Timbuktu's independence monument," one witness told AFP.
"With the help of a tractor the Islamists are busy destroying the Timbuktu independence monument," said another witness, speaking to AFP by telephone.
The extremists, who seized control of Mali's vast north following a disastrous coup in March, began a campaign of destruction of Timbuktu's cultural treasures in July that prompted an international outcry.
They had already removed the head of a horse alongside the monument, as well as destroying the tombs of ancient Muslim saints and the "sacred door" to a 15th-century mosque.
The radicals consider the tombs to be "idolatrous" and have also threatened to destroy the city's three ancient mosques, one of which dates back to 1327.
Once considered one of Africa's most stable democracies, Mali has slid into chaos since the March 22 coup overthrew the government of President Amadou Toumani Toure.
Tuareg rebels and a number of Islamist groups backed by al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) capitalized on the power vacuum in the south to seize an area larger than France.
But the Islamists then overran the Tuareg and have imposed their strict version of Sharia on areas under their control, arresting unveiled women, stoning an unmarried couple to death, publicly flogging smokers and amputating suspected thieves' limbs, according to residents and rights groups.
Western powers fear the zone could become a new haven for terrorists, and are scrambling to help Mali come up with a plan to win back its territory, offering logistical support and training to its weak army rather than troops.
The plans will be presented to the United Nations in late November
Despite the fragility of the interim government in Bamako, which has failed to assert itself, the African Union this week readmitted the nation as it seeks to stamp out the extremist threat.
The pan-African body has also endorsed a plan calling for elections in early 2013 and for Mali's authorities to attempt to negotiate with those armed groups willing to find a political solution through dialogue.

Three vie for City Council Ward 1
Ken Gardner is interested in representing Ward I on the Miles City Council because "I believe that through my life experiences I can bring a unique perspective in helping to find solutions to the city's ongoing fiscal concerns. I believe a local government needs to be transparent, accountable and fiscally responsible," he wrote in a questionnaire given to the candidates.
After graduating from Terry High School, Gardner attended Miles Community College and the University of Hawaii before earning a bachelor's degree with a major in Earth Science from the University of Montana in Missoula.
He worked for the United States Geological Survey in Denver, then went into business for himself as owner of Petro Graphic Services in Englewood, Colo.
Gardner worked as a counselor at Pine Hills Youth Correctional Facility from 1991-98, then lived in Minneapolis, Minn., for five years as a director of quality control at Dural Manufacturing.
He returned to Pine Hills to work as a social worker and retired in 2011.
This is the first time he has run for office.
"I am motivated by my belief in God, family and freedom to make personal choices," he wrote.
"I have always maintained respect for others as well as their opinion even if it is different than my own. This is important when compromise is required when dealing with problems. I have been effective when interacting with groups of individuals, agendas and differences of opinions.
"My past employment history required my participation in fiscal responsibilities, professionalism and working towards the best long-term solutions."
Gardner is concerned about the needs of the large number of senior citizens in the community.
While campaigning, he said it became obvious that the issue of increasing flood insurance and the impact on home values is a big concern of the people's, as well as his own.
He feels taking pro-active steps to deal with the Biggert-Waters Flood Insurance Reform Act of 2012 would be of major importance.
He wrote that 84 percent of Miles City residences are either in the flood way or flood plain and are adversely affected by the reform act. Dike options and costs, at this time, are unknown, so the city will have to wait for the results of the (KLJ) engineering feasibility study. In his view, paying for a certified dike will be far less expensive than projected increases in flood insurance.
Other pressing issues he is concerned about are:
• The city infrastructure, including sewer and water lines, continued work on updating the water treatment plant, as well as the pending Tatro Street project;
• Ongoing fiscal challenges of services to the city as well as the impact of gas and oil production within the state;
• Equal city services for the people of Ward 1;
• The start and completion of a new jail facility.
William "Bill" Melnik has been serving on the Miles City Council for about 20 years and is once again running for re-election because he is interested in helping Ward I and the other wards to make Miles City a place people want to move to work or start a business.
Born in Roundup, Melnik came to Miles City to work at Pine Hills School as the principal of the education department of the school. He has lived in Miles City for 39 years.
He graduated from Northern Montana College with a bachelor's in education and a master's degree in Department of Corrections education and school administration.
Melnik is currently on the council's Finance Committee and Human Resource Committee but has served on all the committees at one time or another.
He also is on the Miles City Area Economic Development Council, the Southeastern Montana Development Corporation board and the local landfill board.
He plans to continue working on economic development for the benefit of Miles City.
The most pressing issues facing Miles City, according to Melnik, are the redevelopment of the downtown business district, flood control and water and sewer projects.
For the downtown area, economic development is looking for federal money to invest in its development.
Melnik would also like to draw more travelers into the west-end entrance to get them downtown.
He said the flood control problem is "a tough deal."
He said the city needs to take care of the dike and that "we can take care of the dike ourselves."
One of the things needed is to remove the trees growing in the dike.
A problem is that some of the local people don't want the dike touched.
The city is on phase two (of four phases) of upgrading the waste water treatment plant. The Economic Development Council is working to get the $8 million for phase two from the federal government.
Melnik said the council is "a godsend" for Miles City.
Michelle Simpson believes she can make a difference and be a strong voice in Ward 1, so she is running for the Miles City Council seat.
Simpson was born on the West Coast and was in the military with her husband. They moved to Miles City 41 years ago and have been at their current address for 38 years.
She believes "Ward 1 has been without a voice for an extended period of time, therefore I believe I can make a difference with the many changes coming to Miles City."
She has sat on the Convention and Visitors Bureau for the Miles City Area Chamber of Commerce for six years, the chamber's executive board for six years and was the past president of the chamber.
She began her career in the lodging industries and has worked as manager and area manager, covering three states and five properties, which included all aspects of management (payroll, taxes, budgets and all aspects of employer/employee relations, not only onsite but with the head office).
She has operated in the motel's day-to-day business, reviewing the books and providing accounting.
Also, she is a business partner in Simpson's Honey Farms.
She hopes to accomplish getting the repairs on the dike done to lower flood insurance costs, cleaning up and beautifying Miles City, revitalizing Main Street, enhancing economic development and getting street repairs done.
The dike has been an issue the entire time she has lived in Miles City.
"Now is the time to resolve this issue and repair the dike," she wrote. "Flood insurance is at an extreme which could cost some home owners as much as $750 per month and is due to rise another 20 percent each year. I am very concerned about property values on the north side."
"I am concerned for the residents of the city who are on a fixed income and families that are on a limited income; how will they be able to continue with the rise of rent and taxes?" Simpson wrote. "I heard multiple times while I was campaigning, 'one more tax and I am out of my house.' This is unacceptable for the citizens of Ward 1 as well as the citizens of MIles City."

Grand but needs work
Old buildings have creaky floors which is quaint, but the room smelt a little musty.
The room was hot, despite the thermostat being right down. The air conditioning fans outside the window made it noisy to open the window, and the shower temperature oscillated between scalding and freezing. There were just four little sachets of milk for tea and coffee in the room which is just two each. There is a fabulous view from the breakfast room which redeemed the hotel enough for us to think it was pretty nice after all, but being presented with someone else's £77 unsigned bar bill charged to my room on checkout just wrecked it. Of course they removed it without question, but sorry Nutfield Priory - you must try harder. We never got to the spa, and I don't think we will now.

Wonderful hotel in a lovely setting
We were looking for a night away with our baby daughter.
We couldnt have chosen better than nutfield. We booked the bronte suite which was amzing value for such a great room and perfect for the 3 of us offering plenty of space. The hotel was full of character and staff couldnt do enough to help. We asked for a cot and were greeted by a porter with a cot as we reached our room.
We chose to eat in the bar which was probably our only criticism. Service was extremely slow and when our burgers came they certainly were not worth the 17.00 we were charged for each of them. But aside from that a lovely 24hours.

If the Acquisition is not consummated for any reason on or prior to April 29, 2014, which may be extended in certain circumstances to July 29, 2014, the proceeds from the offering will be used to redeem the notes at a redemption price of 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. The notes will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by (i) upon the closing of the offering, certain of the Issuer's subsidiaries that were formed for the purpose of facilitating the Acquisition, (ii) substantially concurrently with the consummation of the Acquisition and the release of the escrow property from the escrow account, Perrigo and certain subsidiaries of Perrigo that will guarantee the Issuer's new term loan credit facility and revolving credit facility (together, the "Permanent Credit Facilities") and (iii) within 60 days after the consummation of the Acquisition, Elan and certain of Elan's subsidiaries that will guarantee the Permanent Credit Facilities.

Product Outcome
Insuladd is a powder additive that can be mixed into ordinary interior or exterior paint, making that paint act like a layer of insulation. The company recommends two coats for optimal protection. The material is also available in a pre-mixed form.
The secret behind Insuladd is the unique propriety process that applies a coating to the microscopic inert gas-filled ceramic microspheres that make up Insuladd. When the paint dries, these form the radiant heat barrier, turning the ordinary house paint into heat-reflecting thermal paint. The insulating materials reduce heat transfer by reflecting heat away from the painted surface by forming a heat-blocking radiant barrier on the surface that is painted.
According to Tech Traders, the product works with all types of paints and coatings and will not change the coverage rate, application, or adhesion of the paint. It can be used on walls, roofs, ceilings, air-conditioning ducts, steam pipes and fittings, and is particularly well-suited for use on metal buildings, cold storage facilities such as walk-in coolers and freezers, and mobile or modular homes.
In addition to the target market of residential and commercial buildings, customers have found a variety of other useful applications for this insulating additive. For example, Purina Feeds uses the Insuladd E-Coat, an insulating wall paint and roof paint that is a 100-percent acrylic product containing the ceramic paint additive, to paint feed storage silos to help prevent feed spoilage. The poultry industry uses Insuladd to reduce the summer heat and winter cold effects on the climate of hatcheries. Samsung uses the ceramic paint additive on military vehicles, and Hyundai Corporation's shipbuilding division uses Insuladd on its ships.
Tech Traders has continued its connection to the aerospace community by recently providing Lockheed Martin Corporation with one of its thermal products for use on the F-22 Raptor. The designers of the high-tech fighter jet were able to use one of the insulating paints on the outside of an electrical switch box that was overheating due to outside heat sources.

Are exposed nails on a roof ridge vent acceptable?
2 Attachment(s)
I just noticed this problem on my new roof installation. I have called the contractor back to fix a few other items in the past and was wondering if this is worth getting corrected. I don't like the way it looks now that I have discovered it, but I was wondering why they would have done it this way to start with? Take a look at the two nails in the center ridge vent location and the one nail on the left separate ridge vent. Shouldn't this be really easy to fix? I cant understand why there would be exposed nails on a roof. Thanks for any advice. See the attached photos..
Roofing was my first job at age 15 which was 28 yrs ago and I have never seen ridge cap done any other way. I have small roofing biz today. Since there has to be a place to stop the ridge cap you have to cover the nail area of cap so you cut the color off the tab and place it over the coresponding caps and silicone or Tar nail caps.I suppose if you wanted you could just Tar without nailing the last tab. you could also use liquid nails to hold it on.
Learn to be respectful in your replies. And to use better grammar.

User behaviours and intentions in digital media in Australia
Flew, Terry, Spurgeon, Christina, & Daniel, Anna (2009) User behaviours and intentions in digital media in Australia. In Record of the Communications Policy & Research Forum 2009, Network Insight Pty Ltd, University of Technology, Sydney, pp. 179-189.
Conference Paper
(PDF 129kB)
Published Version.
This paper reports findings from a study of user behaviours and intentions towards online news and information in Australia, undertaken by the Queensland University of Technology Creative Industries Faculty and the Smart Services Cooperative Research Centre. It has used a literature review, online survey, focus groups and interviews to explore attitudes and behaviours towards online news and information.
The literature review on consumer user of online media highlighted emerging technical opportunities, and flagged existing barriers to access experienced by consumers in the Australian digital media sector. The literature review highlighted multiple disconnects between consumer interests in online news and their ability to fulfil them. This presents an opportunity for news entities to appraise and resolve. Doing so may enhance their service offering, attract consumers and improve loyalty. These themes were further explored by the survey.
The survey results revealed three typologies of user, described as 'convenience', 'loyal' and 'customising'. Convenience users tend to access news by default, for example when they log out of email. Loyal users seek out a trusted brand such as mainstream news mastheads. Customising users tend to tailor news to their preferences, and be the first to use leading edge media. Respondents to the survey were then invited to participate in focus groups, which aimed to test the survey results.
Consumer perceptions and attitudes are important factors in progression towards an information economy, because ultimately consumers are customers. By segmenting the online news market according to customer typology, media providers may identify new opportunities to attract and retain customers.

DO Hot Cars Get you Laid?
(sorry Russell....maybe this survey excludes Batmobiles.)
Believe it or not, a new survey found women are now MORE attracted to men in SENSIBLE cars than expensive or flashy cars. Only one in 10 women say they'd date a guy they weren't physically attracted to because of his car.
Maybe this is still fallout from the economy crapping out six years ago? But according to this study, buying a Lamborghini doesn't automatically get you laid anymore. Buy a fuel-efficient Nissan Sentra though . . . you'll be fighting women off for days. Here's the info:
56% of women say men who drive expensive cars are show-offs or arrogant . .
37% think he bought the car to overcompensate for "something." like that "something" is SIZE IN THE PANTS.
11% of women say they can tell where a guy is in life based on his car . . . like, if he has a sedan, he's more ready to settle down and have a family.
Only one in 10 women say they'd date a guy they weren't physically attracted to because of his car.

I merged two threads on the same incident to keep things more ship shape

"Outside of the killings, Washington has one of the lowest crime rates in the country,"
--Mayor Marion Barry, Washington , DC .
I merged two threads on the same incident to keep things more ship shape
A real man loves his wife, and places his family as the most important thing in life. Nothing has brought me more peace and content in life than simply being a good husband and father.
Still waiting on more details, but it's sounding fairly friendly to the gun owner. If, in fact, the latest articles portray it correctly, throw the book at him. If you as a gun owner willingly escalate the argument to the point where you have to use your gun, I do believe you should be liable for anyone around who is innocently injured. And if you choose to turn a scuffle into a gunfight...
"War necessarily brings with it some virtues, and great and heroic virtues too. What horrid creatures we men are, that we cannot be virtuous without murdering one another?" -John Adams
I posted about this in the related thread on the Folklife Festival shooting in Seattle, but I think this deserves it's own thread.
Because of this fiasco, Mayor Greg Nickels is planning on issuing an Executive Order (effectively bypassing public opinion) to ban the carrying of firearms (despite having a permit) on city property.
City to limit concealed weapons
If you are in WA, write to your lawmakers!
Also, you can contact the mayor's office here: Mayor Greg Nickels Email Form
I hope you guys have something in your state laws that prevents the mayor from doing this, much like Mayor Nutter was stopped in Philadelphia from taking similar action.
2nd Amendment: because personal violence never makes an appointment.
Evil resides in the heart of the individual, not in inanimate objects.
Proud Member of GeorgiaCarry.Org
After reading the news article in the link, I thank goodness the mayor can prevent only employees from carrying on city property and not CCW holders in all. OTOH, why would the mayor's office take even this action? Why punish anyone for the actions of another? He's only making a gun free zone for municipal employees.
Why can't the politicians get that the only people affected by the laws are the law abiding? Criminals and mental patients won't stop to ponder one bit the executive order issued by Nickels.
2nd Amendment: because personal violence never makes an appointment.

As I read the account of this story, I thought the hippie that argued with him about the gun was the one shot in the sinus.
Three more lessons:
- Never argue about your gun. Leave.
- Tupperware is not ideal for pistol whipping.
- If you're going to pistol whip, keep your finger off the trigger when you do it.
Regarding Federal law, I found the following:
Federal law requires that an individual be involuntarily committed to a mental institution, found not guilty by insanity, or deemed by a judge as a "mental defective" and a danger to himself or others, before second amendment rights are restricted.
Still, the meth addiction should have been sufficient to disqualify him. I don't know why he still got it.
I thought that there was still doubt about the fact that the guy was a CC holder. First article jumped on it (assuming), follow up said nothing.
In CO, the Mayor would be pimp slapped by the State Govt body. No city, county or otherwise can enact an ordinance or law contradicting the State law on CC.
Grasseater // Grass~eat~er noun, often attributive \ˈgras-ē-tər\
A person who is incapable of independent thought; a person who is herd animal-like in behavior; one who cannot distinguish between right and wrong; a foolish person.
See also Sheep
Considering this is turning out to be such a big deal, it is really painful that we don't actually know what happened in any detail.
I don't understand why (*all*) news outlets are willing to leave a big news item all fuzzy.
Is investigative reporting dead?

"With all of the seniors we have had on this team and the ones that have been through these battles through their careers, of all the wins we've had, I think this is the most memorable one," said Cutler.
With the victory, Vanderbilt:
- defeated Tennessee for the first time in 23 years, and for the first time in Knoxville in 30 years;
- stopped a six-game losing streak, and ended its season on a winning note;
- finished the season with its highest win total (5) in six years, and its most SEC wins (3) in 14 years;
- insured that Tennessee (4-6, 2-5 SEC) would not go to a bowl for the first time since 1988.
The Volunteers, which had trailed much of the first three quarters, finally took their first lead of the game with 8:25 left to play on a 29-yard James Wilhoit field goal. Vanderbilt was unable to move on its next two possessions, but its defense came up big, forcing punts on two Tennessee possessions.
Vandy got the ball back with 1:40 left to play, and pulled off the slickest, quickest two-minute drill you might ever see. Sixty-three yards and three Cutler-to-Bennett passes later, the Commodores had retaken the lead at 28-24.
"I was worried that we scored too quickly," said Cutler. "We've done that before, but there was nothing we could do about it. We left it in the defense's hands, and they didn't let us down."
Indeed. The Vandy defense had surrendered 228 yards on the ground to tailback Arian Foster, but this time Tennessee was forced to go to the air. Rick Clausen expertly moved the Vols 64 yards to the Commodore 11, from which he took three shots at the end zone. On the final play, which began with 0:01 showing on the clock, Clausen's pass to C.J. Fayton was intercepted by Jared Fagan.
Game over.
Fagan was mobbed, and the Vanderbilt bench exploded in jubilation. Vandy's seniors, many of whom had stayed around for five years, had gone out winners.
"I was asked earlier in the week what was the best feeling I've had since I've been here at Vanderbilt," said senior captain Moses Osemwegie. "Well, this is it. This tops it all."
For Vanderbilt, the heroes were many. Earl Bennett, Vanderbilt's sensational freshman receiver, turned in another monster game (167 yards on 14 catches) and broke Jabar Gaffney's SEC record for catches by a freshman. Cassen Jackson-Garrison, getting his first start ever (and in his hometown for that matter), picked up 121 all-purpose yards. Marlon White had a pair of touchdown receptions.
And Cutler finished up an illustrious career in style, throwing for 315 yards and three touchdowns. He finished seventh on the SEC's all-time total offense list, and 11th all-time in passing yardage. More importantly, his last pass for Vanderbilt turned out to be the winning touchdown in a win over Tennessee.
The loss, Tennessee's sixth of the season, was a demoralizing one for the Vols, who had at one time been projected as the No. 3 team in the nation. UT had rallied from a 21-7 first-half deficit to take a 24-21 lead, but couldn't contain Cutler and Bennett on the Dores' final drive.
"I guess sometimes before you start building back you have to hit rock bottom," said UT coach Phillip Fulmer. "I'd say everybody's egos are pretty bruised right now."
Vanderbilt grabbed the lead early in the first quarter on its second possession of the game, mainly due to the receiving and rushing of Jackson-Garrison. The sophomore tailback turned a screen pass into a 35-yard gain, before bulling into the end zone on a 2-yard run.
Tennessee would answer immediately with a three-play, 80-yard touchdown drive. Foster, running the same off-tackle play three straight times for 66, 8, and 6 yards, scored to make it 7-7.
Vandy's second TD was set up by a sensational, 47-yard catch-and-run by George Smith, which put VU in business at the UT 16. Cutler hit Marlon White on a slant pass on third down to give the Commodores a 14-7 lead.
After forcing a UT punt, Cutler drove Vandy 80 yards for a 21-7 lead midway through the second quarter. The touchdown came on a controversial catch near the front pylon by White. Vol fans thought White didn't hold the ball long enough, but a review reaffirmed the official's ruling.
But Tennessee would hold the ball for almost the final 8 minutes of the first half and cut the deficit to 7 on a 5-yard Clausen pass to Chris Hannon. Vandy was left with no time to operate, and the 21-14 score held up until halftime.
The third quarter was scoreless, with Vanderbilt stuffing Tennessee on downs at the Commodore 3 on the Vols' only serious scoring threat. But the Vols finally knotted the score 21-21 on the first play of the fourth quarter on a 1-yard somersault by Foster.
Tennessee dominated the field position battle through most of the second half. Jonathan Hefney broke loose for several big punt returns, and the Vols were able to convert one of them into a 29-yard Wilhoit field goal with 8:25 to play.
Twice more Vanderbilt's offense was unable to move, and twice Bobby Johnson elected to punt rather than attempt a fourth-down conversion. The decision paid off-- both times the Commodore defense stopped the Vols and forced them to give the ball back on punts.
Vandy got the ball back for the last time with 1:40 left. The final drive, one destined to go down in annals of Commodore history, went as follows:
- Cutler over the middle to Bennett for 15 yards to the Tennessee 48, first down.
- Cutler to Bennett on a beautifully thrown 31-yard sideline pass, first down at the 17.
- Cutler throws incomplete to Bennett in the end zone, but Tennessee was called for pass interference, giving Vandy a first down at the 5.
- Cutler quick slant pass to Bennett across the middle, touchdown.
"We kept playing even when they came at us," said Bobby Johnson. "We pulled it out with some tired people. It was a good way for a great bunch of seniors to go out."
A happy throng of Vanderbilt supporters gathered to greet and congratulate the Commodores outside Neyland Stadium following Vandy's first win here since 1975.
The Volunteers finish the regular season next Saturday at Kentucky. Its season complete, Vanderbilt's coaches turn their attention toward recruiting. The Commodores open the 2006 season vs. MTSU at home, September 2.
Game Notes:
Bryant Hahnfeldt suffered a serious ACL injury to his left knee attempting a tackle on a punt return in the third quarter and was unable to return. Essentially, it took three players to replace the versatile Hahnfeldt. Kyle Keown punted four punts-- Patrick Johnson kicked the PAT after Vanderbilt's final touchdown-- and walk-on Bill Robertson handled Vandy's final kickoff, driving it through the end zone for a touchback.
Besides Jackson-Garrison, freshman receiver Bryant Anderson also got the first start of his career.
Scouts from the Music City and Independence Bowls were in the pressbox to watch the game, as was former SEC Commissioner Roy Kramer.
Erik Davis and Cheron Thompson both missed their second straight games due to injuries. Vandy was also without the services of its starting tailback Jeff Jennings, who tore an ACL in the Kentucky game.
Much more coverage coming Sunday and Monday on Vanderbilt's historic victory, including interviews from the locker room, commentary by Brent Wiseman, and photo galleries by VandyMania's Stan Jones.

Physical Layer Test System Software
Manufacturer's part number :
Description :
Physical Layer Test System (PLTS) 2014 software is a powerful signal integrity tool for today's high-speed digital designers. There are so many signal integrity tools for design, analysis and troubleshooting of high-speed interconnect that it's difficult to manage them all. The Keysight PLTS design team has created version 2014 to integrate new tools for a substantial boost in productivity and help solve real world problems for today's signal integrity engineers.
The 1-port automatic fixture removal tool in PLTS 2014 is a breakthrough extension of the previous 2X THRU AFR in PLTS 2013 that saves the user from designing and fabricating special calibration structures on PCBs. Now, the test fixture itself can be used as the "1X THRU" structure with an open circuit on port 2. This is extremely helpful when working with FPGA applications where it is nearly impossible to create a normal 2X THRU structure. Furthermore, the accuracy can be enhanced by using additional calibration structures together such as an open, short and/or THRU if desired. This error correction flexibility gives the signal integrity engineer more control over accuracy versus ease-of-use decisions that need to be made for leading edge applications.

- Multi-channel simulation to analyze TX and RX with vendor supplied IBIS-AMI models
- Batch file convertor improvements for managing large data sets

Question?? Why did you wet sand them if your clear was nice and shiny and no dirt in it? I don't understand why you would sand them... unless you wanted a flat shiny result?
Around here autozone and advanced auto don't. But NAPA has good paint stuff they mix paint too.
I have a Napa, but not a real one. It's a weird Brooklyn version - but I'll check it out. The sheet I was following said to have a healthy amount of soap on there for the very last sanding (not the other sandings). maybe "ton" was an exaggeration. I felt it getting the sand to surface - so I think I'm good. It definitely felt smoother afterwards.Should I be waiting for a while to buff, since the gas is still coming out?
You could just lay another coat of clear on them and then install them on your bike.... just another option...

The post Boggo Road Gaol Redevelopment Update 26.10.2015 appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
Calile Malouf Investments, who have the rights for the redevelopment, lodged their development application (DA), on Tuesday 20th October.
Boggo Road Gaol is the last undeveloped heritage site in the inner-city. Its value to the people of Queensland and Australia is immense.
Boggo Road Gaol Pty. Ltd. has held a license to operate tours and events at this historic site, for the past three-years. Boggo Road Gaol Director, Jack Sim – and his staff – have been associated with the jail for 18 years.
To date, we have had more than 50,000 people visit the Gaol on tours, functions and events, Mr. Sim said.
"Over the past-three years, we have developed the Gaol into a vibrant community space".
"We've been in a unique position to gauge the public's thoughts, as to what they want for the future of Boggo Road Gaol".
"Visitors and locals want the Gaol to be a major tourist attraction for Brisbane and Queensland – like Port Arthur and Old Melbourne Gaols", Mr. Sim Said.
To make Boggo Road Gaol a fantastic tourism experience, comparable to these heritage attractions, the remaining cell blocks and cells must be retained, to convey the sites historical significance.
"The proposed markets and entertainment precincts are great ideas. However, the balance between how much of the gaol is adaptively re-used for entertainment, café's and bars, versus the retainment of cultural heritage tourism is not right", Mr. Sim Said.
Excellent access for visitors, especially – senior citizens, schools, students and disabled groups – is essential.
The ability to drop these groups literally at the gates, will end with the current proposal.
The Gaol belongs to the people of Queensland. We encourage the public to play their role in Boggo Roads future, by examining the plans and submitting their thoughts.
You can comment on the development application (A004241967), to Brisbane City Council by going to this link http://bit.ly/1QZevwQ
Boggo Road Pty. Ltd. will submit a proposal, in line with the development application process.
We will continue to work with the developers and Brisbane City Council to achieve a positive outcome for all stakeholders.
We have been greatly involved in the process to date. We will continue our liaison, as part of this process, and to share feedback from visitors and tourists alike.

The post THE FRAZER VAULT : ROOKWOOD CEMETERY (1974) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
Rookwood was created to accommodate a growing population, the old cemeteries of Sydney had filled up. It would be a great gothic theme park, designed to entertain the living and honour the dead.
In 1868, far from the city of Sydney (so property values were not affected) the new cemetery was opened to the public. The first burials took place in 1867; the first cremation in 1925. The "crem" as it is known is the oldest operating crematorium in Australia. The original cemetery was 200 acres, the cemetery today has grown to cover 699 acres (283 hectares). The remains of approximately a million people are either buried or held here.
Mausoleums, crypts and vaults dot the landscape. Grand gravestones and memorials of the rich and powerful sit side by side with more modest tombstones. Many have been damaged by more than a century of vandalism, neglect or decay.
One of these graves is the Frazer Vault – Built in 1894, this grand mausoleum dominates the Rookwood Necropolis. It once belonged to the Frazer family. The largest mausoleum in Rookwood, this vault was once the resting place of seven members of the Frazer family:
John – died 27 October 1884, aged 57 (founding father)
John – died 15 December 1878
Arthur Griffiths – died 8 November 1900
Sarah & Alice Mary – died 21 February 1901
Elizabeth – died 2 July 1914
They are no longer there.
It was commissioned by John Frazer prior to his death. Born in Ireland in 1824, Frazer immigrated with his brother and two sisters to Australia in 1842. In partnership with them, he built John Frazer & Co into one of Sydney's biggest businesses.
Though John Frazer died relatively young, aged only 57, in 1884, he died very wealthy – the third richest man in the country, leaving an estate worth over 400,000 pounds.
Before his death he commissioned the building of an elaborate and theft-proof mausoleum to contain himself and his family for eternity – forever. It was never meant to be disturbed. In reality, it was to hold them all less than a century.
In 1974, Mr Mervin Manning, who was then the Manager of the Independent Cemetery here at Rookwood, received a bizarre telephone call at his office.
A funeral director requested permission to remove the coffins of the Frazer"s from the vault. Apparently a distant relative of John Frazer wanted to have their remains cremated at the crematorium.
The undertaker was merely following the directions of the relative. Unable to believe that anyone would want to do such a thing, Merve decided to meet the person. The lady seemed nice enough – she was the great granddaughter of John Frazer – but determined to have her ancestors removed, no matter the cost.
A whole crew of people assembled on the day that the bodies were to be exhumed. It took a week for the experienced mason to dismantle each onyx sarcophagus. Each had been designed to never be opened after being sealed. Despite this, great care was taken to ensure that nothing was damaged. Mr Manning made the mason number each section in the hope one day maybe somebody would put them back together again.
When the first crypt lid came off a strange smell filled the room. It was not decay for the occupants had been dead for years. It was some kind of gas, perhaps methane. One by one, as each tomb was opened, the sweet smelling vapour, sealed for decades inside the stone vessels, drifted out.
The lady was adamant that every person was to be removed. Armed with records of who was buried there, each coffin had to be identified, opened and matched to the old registers.
When the lids were removed, the coffins inside were found to be in very good condition, but they discovered something unsettling.

The post A Boring Escape: Joseph Alexander Raymond Valentino (1927) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
In Boggo Road Gaol for vagrancy, this young man had only just started serving his sentence when he decided it was time to return to the outside world. As he was deemed a low risk prisoner, he was given work outside the prison walls, often unsupervised.
There was nothing sensational about Valentino's escape. His actions were so commonplace that no notice was taken when he simply downed his garden tools and casually walked out of the prison grounds. When out of sight, he quickened his pace to a run and the subsequent search failed to find him. He did not stay in one place, moving from Spring Hill and the Valley, but he was eventually recaptured in Woolloongabba.
He finished his time and was discharged on the 25th of August 1927 and once again disappeared into the public.

Special Event – Wednesday 28 January 2015
Join us Wednesday 28 January 2015 at 3pm outside the prison gates to commemorate 75 years since Halliday made his first daring breakout.
RSVP firstname.lastname@example.com
Seven and a half decades ago, on 28 January 1940, a housebreaker from New South Wales, 30 years-old Arthur Halliday – nicknamed "Slim" on account of his tall, thin frame – made his first successful escape from Boggo Road Gaol's
Number 2 Division – this section of wall became known as "Halliday's Leap". He would again escape in 1946 – taking two other dangerous men with him including Victor Travis, a would-be gun-man and Derwent Arkinstall, a convicted killer of an elderly Brisbane taxi-driver. Halliday was one of the few who ever escaped Boggo Road Gaol twice. Released in 1951, the following year he returned to Boggo Road Gaol – this time for the murder of Gold Coast. taxi-driver Athol McCowan.
Regarded as the most dangerous man in any prison in the British Commonwealth, Halliday was the Brendan Abbott of his time. Although Halliday never succeeded in actually escaping Boggo Road again, it wasn't for the want of trying. Throughout the 1950s he continued to make headlines – his most audacious saw him make a replica Colt handgun out of soap! Halliday was kept under the strictest of supervision, isolated from other inmates, becoming a living legend within the walls. His uniquely-modified cell, No9, D Wing cellblock, Number 2 Division had three slide-bolts to keep him secured.
He was easily the prison's most infamous inmate earning the title of the "Houdini of Boggo Road," after Harry Houdini, the world famous escape artist. After 23 years of incarceration, Halliday was eventually paroled and released as a free man.
Until his death, Slim maintained he was not responsible for the murder for which he served a life sentence – claiming he was framed by former Police Commissioner Frank Bischof – today widely regarded as corrupt."SLIM HALLIDAY: The Taxi-Driver Killer" by Ken Blanch found vital evidence that would have benefitted Halliday's defence was deliberately held back by police at the time. ESCAPES Volume 1 by Gaol Director Jack Sim details Halliday's two escapes and other gaol-breakers of Boggo Road.
Heritage-listed Number Two Division is today the only remaining section of "The Road". Since December 2012 Boggo Road Gaol Pty Ltd has been conducting historical tours, events, re-enactments & experiences at this historic site.

The post THE LAST BUSHRANGER IN QUEENSLAND : James Kenniff (1940) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
On the outskirts of Charters Towers sits what the locals call "the old cemetery", the Lynd Highway Cemetery was established in 1895. This bleak, barren and dead flat cemetery is bordered by a well maintained cast iron perimeter fence and charming front gate. It is the resting place for a number of interesting local characters including Jupiter Mossman who, as the local lore has it, was one of the party that discovered gold in Charters Towers; Doctor Leonard Redmond who discovered Australian Dengue Fever; Frederick Pfeiffer, owner of the rich Day Dawn PC Mine and James Kenniff who was the last bushranger in Queensland.
James and his older brother Patrick were expert horsemen who made a living by horse stealing – a very serious crime.
They were wanted in connection to the theft of a horse. A police constable, Aboriginal tracker and station master pursued the brothers for several days through hard, mountainous country in Western Queensland. Surprising Patrick and his brother James they managed to overpower and arrest them both. As the tracker was sent to get handcuffs from the constable's packhorse, gunshots rang out and the tracker ran for his life.
A later search found the constable's horse wandering through the scrub and the burnt remains of the constable and station master. The brothers were tracked down again and following a shootout, both were captured and tried for murder.
Throughout the trial Patrick maintained his innocence and was denied the right to appeal to the Privy Council in London, by the judge Samuel Griffith. Though there was public shock and outcry, the Queensland Government seemed to be determined to see him hang.
Patrick was sent to the Gallows of Boggo Road Gaol, protesting his innocence to the very last. His final chilling words were saved for one man, the Chief Justice, now Sir Samuel Griffith: "I am as innocent as the judge who sentenced me."
James's life was spared, but he was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour. Being released in 1914, he refused visitors and lived out his life alone. Some say he was the one who pulled the trigger. He took the secret to his grave in Charters Towers.
Hear about this amazing story on Australia's longest running true crime show "True Crimes" – presented by Jack Sim on 4BC Nights with Walter Williams. Thursday evenings 9.35pm on Radio 4BC.

The post Fish in Prison: Riots from a prisoner's perspective (1980s) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
Over the years there were many riots and protests leading up to the closure of Boggo Road Gaol. In 1983 rioters took over and destroyed the Industrial Division, damaging cells to the point they were uninhabitable for six months. They rioted in D Wing, burning their sanitation tubs, urinating and dropping burning debris on the fire brigade and officers as they attempted to subdue the inmates.
Finally the authorities started to take notice and in 1986, construction of three new prisons was granted and work began to build the Wacol HM Brisbane Industrial Prison, HM Prison Chewko and Borallon Prison. In 1988 the Cabinet commissioned Mr Jim Kennedy to review the corrective services in Queensland bringing about the closure of Boggo Road Gaol, with No.2 Division being closed in 1989.
Glen "Fish", a former prisoner at Boggo Road Gaol during the 1980s, witnessed firsthand the chaos within the red brick walls: being crammed in exercise yards with 30 other men, the brutal bashings and hunger strikes. On 4BC TRUE CRIMES Jack Sim will be discussing this tumultuous time in the Prisons history and the closure of Boggo Road Gaol.
Listen to this fascinating story on Australia's longest running true crime show TRUE CRIMES – presented by Jack Sim on 4BC Nights with Walter Williams. Thursday evenings 9.35pm on Radio 4BC.

The post DUPED BY A CON.WOMAN : Gladys Hardgrave (1935) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
At large in Queensland for little over a month, Gladys Hardgrave posed as a gentlewoman, robbing businesses in Brisbane, Caboolture and Southport of more than £123 (roughly $10,670). She was revealed to be a clever swindler, tricking over 7 stores, banks and business people. Purchasing shoes, hotel rooms, clothing by handing them boomerang cheques and simply walking away with goods and money. Dud cheques fell like autumn leaves.
The C.I.B. Branch started their investigation, Detective acting Sergeant "Nobby" Clark, Detective Currey and Purcel were assigned to the task of catching this fraud. They found her in one of the leading hotels in Sandgate, posing as a wealthy widow, with a trained nurse to attend to her 17 month old daughter.
When arrested, Gladys was wild and uncaring, but after hours in court she began to weep with her head bowed. She told detectives her crimes were committed in order to live well and look after her baby.
Hear more about Gladys on Australia's longest running true crime show "True Crimes" – presented by Jack Sim on 4BC Nights with Walter Williams. Thursday evenings 9.35pm on Radio 4BC.

The post Did she kill her husband or was she unfairly executed? (1887) appeared first on Boggo Road Gaol.]]>
Author Vashti Farrer's latest book reveals a tropical Queensland alive with goldrush excitement, and the hard lives of pioneering communities in Port Douglas, from English immigrants to Chinese settlers, all looking to make a better life. Into this world stepped a young widow, Ellen Thomson, who married an older farmer, Billy Thomson. After many years of working the farm on the Mossman River together, on the night of 22 October 1886, Billy Thomson was found dead with a gunshot wound to the head. What happened?
VASHTI FARRER was fascinated by the life and death of Ellen Thomson after stumbling upon her story in the museum at Port Douglas. Initially Vashti wanted to write a novel, weaving the perspectives of Ellen, her lover and her husband together, but instead has created a wonderful work of non-fiction set in the historical and social context of the times. Beyond a reasonable doubt outlines events of that fateful night, the subsequent trial and executions and gives a fascinating insight into life at the time. It also raises the question, was Ellen Thomson guilty beyond reasonable doubt?
Listen to Jack Sim and Vashti Farrer discuss the story of Ellen Thomson on Australia's longest running true crime show "True Crimes" – presented by Jack Sim on 4BC Nights with Walter Williams. Thursday evenings 9.35pm on Radio 4BC.
You can purchase Beyond a reasonable doubt at the Boggo Road Gaol shop. Join Ghost Tours Pty Ltd on a ghost tour within the walls of Boggo Road Gaol and hear the story of Ellen Thomson.

Empire and Jewish Studies
Association for Jewish Studies (AJS), Fall 2005
The author introduces a series of articles (following this one in this publication) exploring how the field of Jewish studies is reexamining Jewish history through the lens of empire, a transnational form of political and economic power involving relationships that are as much about culture as they are about structure. The author explains that Jewish studies scholars are drawing increasingly on contemporary theories not only to illuminate the subject, but to rethink scholarship in light of it.

After growing up with weight problems that I carried through high school, college and into adult, married life, I decided it was time to get my life together. I was 32 years old, married and wanted a child and I knew I couldn't get pregnant because of my weight. I started off at 313 pounds and I'm now at 226. I still have a ways to go but I'm getting there one pound at a time. I had a gastric bypass and was prepared for almost everything. I did, however, underestimate what a difficult time I would have quitting all my favourite foods. It took several "goodbye" meals, before I could give up my favourite restaurants. Now I'm so glad that I did this. I'm healthier and as soon as I get to my goal weight my husband and I will be trying to a little one. I can't wait to be a mommy!

After a forgettable season with the Giants, tight end Brandon Myers will look to return to his 2012 form as a member of the Buccaneers. Myers signed a two-year deal with the Bucs on Tuesday. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Myers' contract is worth about $4 million with incentives on top of that.
Myers never seemed to fit with the Giants after signing a similarly cheap one-year deal with them last March. He looked lost while running routes in the Giants' offense and saw his production drop precipitously from 2012. That year, Myers caught 79 passes for 806 yards and four touchdowns with the Raiders. Myers caught just 47 passes for 522 yards with the Giants.
Fantasy Analysis:
The Bucs have Tim Wright on the roster, but they wanted to get another pass-catching tight end who could also block. I don't think this fills that need. What it does is steal fantasy value from both tight ends. You can forget about Wright and Myers in your summer drafts.

There are always a lot of opinions and theories about how today's youth communicate. We hear how they like their phones, but not the actual "phone" part of it. They don't like email because texting or Facebook is preferred. Rumors even abound about how they might prefer some face time if the information is useful to them. Well, we found some actual research on the subject done in the form of an info-graphic. Because pictures work for everyone!
The Research
Check out below, what do you think? Does this seem true to you? If you are a teen or early twenty-something, tell us what you think too.

FACTBOX: Gender employment gap in OECD countries
(Reuters) - Closing the gap between women and men in employment would dramatically boost the global economy and could also increase birth rates in countries with shrinking populations, according to economists.
Goldman Sachs research shows that closing the gap between male and female employment would boost gross domestic product (GDP) in the United States by as much as 9 percent, euro zone GDP by 13 percent and Japanese GDP by 16 percent.
Following is a breakdown of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) figures for employment as a percentage of the population of 25-54 year-olds.
