Costs of OPD's Occupy Fiasco Mount: Oakland settles in the Kayvan Sabeghi beating
The Oakland City Council has agreed to settle Kayvan Sabeghi's federal civil rights lawsuit for $645,000. Sabeghi's spleen was lacerated during an Occupy Oakland demonstration on November 2, 2011, when he was beaten by Oakland Police Officer Frank Uu Uu, now retired, was part of a tight-knit group of SWAT / "Tango team" officers who were at the heart of OPD's violent misconduct toward Occupy Oakland demonstrators. Uu's immediate supervisor at the time of this incident was Sgt. Patrick Gonzales, who has been involved in multiple shooting deaths.
The Sabeghi settlement comes just months after the more than $2 million total settlement in two other cases against the OPD for its violent repression of Occupy Oakland and mass arrest of Justice for Oscar Grant demonstrators. As part of those settlements, the City of Oakland and OPD agreed to abide by and to allow the court to enforce a crowd control policy setting strict guidelines o and use of force at demonstrations and other crowd situations. However, OPD has refused to forgo use of so-called "less lethal" weapons such as explosive chemical agent grenades and lead shot filled impact munitions in crowd situations, despite serious injuries such as that of twenty four year old Iraq war veteran Scott Olsen, who was shot in the head at close range with a "bean bag" round on October 25, 2011. Olsen's case is still unresolved.
Kayvan Sabeghi was represented by National Lawyers Guild attorneys Rachel Lederman, Bobbie Stein and Dennis Cunningham.

I am glad that Sabeghi recieved a substanial settlement for the terrible beating he suffered. He deserved every cent and then some .BUT i think the movement against Police violence would have been far better served if he would have won it in Court .
The problems with settlements is that the cop's crimes are never publicly aired as part of a Civil Suit trial .
Within the limits of the corrupt ''Justice''system next to the cop being prosecuted for attempted murder, grevious bodily harm , etc is having a civil case go to trial .
I understand that many victims of the Police are almost always working class and the money is desperately needed .
Kayvan Sabeghi seems to be a exception to that rule in that he is a succesful professional and at least was apart owner of a micro brew pub .
So maybe he was in a better financial position than most to take the case as far as it could go . I don't know . Perhaps his career was short circuited due to his injuries .
But i sure would have liked to see Frank Uu and former Chief Jordan sweating under cross examination .
My two cents . No disrespect to Sabeghi and /or his attornies intended .

Free Snowboarding Game
Looks promising. What do you think?
Project Powder - Free Snowboarding Game From Outspark
YouTube - Project Powder | Trailer
looks boring
So I decided to try out this game. Open beta. I guess they plan to rip people off in the future.
Went to their website. It was slow. Sign-up was painless. Downloaded the installer. Fast.
Tried to open the installer. Must be run in Administrator mode (a clue to the cluelessness of the programmers). Open it again as Administrator. It installs a launcher, then starts up the setup.msi installation file. Refuses to install to D: partition because C: doesn't have enough space. Clear that up. Install goes fine the rest of the way.
Go to run the game. Launcher must update itself. Launcher refuses to update unless run as Administrator (despite install folder being fully accessible to non-administrators). Open it again as administrator. Launcher updates itself. X-Trap anti-cheat crapware loads (also must be run as Administrator). Game starts to load, then exits. X-Trap doesn't like my video card using it's auto-overclock feature. I manually set the clocks and launch the game again.
Video Card: ATi Radeon x1950pro
Menu is laggy. A sign of things to come. Auto-settings runs itself, chooses the highest detail settings. I change them back to low. Game runs terribly. I change them back to high. Game runs terribly.
Looks and plays exactly like every other skate/snowboarding game you've ever played on shockwave.com and such.
Game crashes.
^^^ Sounds fun
It looks like the old SSX games for xbox. I loved thosee!

Sump/overflow/return design question
Sorry in advance for the long/complex post, I will try to be clear...
I did some searches, but didn't come up with anything concrete, especially with regards to a heavily planted low-tech/low-light/non-CO2 tank. Fish bioload will probably be small-medium.
* First off - I would like to state that filtration/plumbing overkill is fine by me if it leads to reduced maintenance/next-to-zero chemical usage.
* Second, I am sure 30G is oversized for a 55G's sump, that is fine - help me use the space - the tanks are already bought (well pretty much).
* Third, I am new to aquariums, but always like a challenge - I have sufficient experience in plumbing/fabrication - the effort involved to set it up is not an issue (I am doing MTS, after all!).
Here is the proposed design:
* 55G display tank w. 'coast-to-coast' overflow box & BeanAnimal drain system, MTS/gravel substrate, heavily planted
* 30G sump (filter sock -> foam -> pot scrubbies -> refugium? -> return (pump(s), heater(s))
The drain system, if you haven't googled it yet, incorporates two primary drain tubes and an emergency drain, yet gives a system with no water noise.
The two pumps I have are the Marineland NJ1800 and NJ3000, and a variety of 50w and 200w heaters.
My questions:
I do understand this is a somewhat unorthodox configuration - if you see glaring errors, please let me know. Again, the idea behind the sump tank is to aid in reducing maintenance cycles (once a month water changes, ideally - I have read of a number of people going much much longer doing low-tech/heavily planted). Also note that I am still in the design phase, so changes are still possible.
Only problem I see so far is that the 30 gal may be too wide to fit into your stand, if they're the dimensions I am thinking of. This is easily overcome in DIY stand.
Some things i learned while setting up my coast to coast:
1. Plan for return line placement. Sounds dumb/no duh right? Well I overlooked it.
2. Don't do true coast to coast. Because of #1, what I would suggest instead is that you leave space on the sides to have holes in the back glass for bulkheads controlling returns. So your overflow box would be like 85-90% of the back wall.
3. There are more flow options in 1/2" loc line than in 3/4". This is important only if you get nervous about putting painted plastic in the tank, and want to black everything out.
4. Loc line is expensive! So don't overlook #3
5. Go external! External overflow boxes are much nicer. Learned this one after I already ordered. If you go external, you can drill in the bottom of the external box, so make it deep enough for upside down U with the screen attachment. If you can't go external, make the box as narrow as possible, and deep enough to use the screens you can buy, or else you will be doing a lot of cutting.
6. As narrow an overflow as possible. This deserved its own, even though it was mentioned in 5. Narrow overflow reduces impact on footprint, blocks less light and flow = less algae problems and more scaping options. Conversely you could just do a whole back wall overflow with single pane of glass, but 55 is already pretty narrow.
7. Have 2 returns. You will need to point one underneath the overflow overhang to avoid issues. Also gives you better distribution if you decide to inject co2 into the sump later
8. Glass is not the same price everywhere
9. Wish I would've made the sump out of acrylic
10. Easier to design the sump the way you want it, then find a heater that works, or go in line if you have to.
11. Leave enough unused volume in sump for drain off in power outages.
12. Your sump should also be level
13. I am torn on sponges vs. Socks as I have only ever used sponges, but people seem to like socks. I saw a mod where you cut slits in the top of the sock, then put the outlet lower than cut so that if it clogs it just runs through the slit instead of onto the floor.
13. The way I wish I would have designed my plumbing, no drawing tool so bear with me. Stand pipes exit the center back of tank, and feed into center section of sump, directly onto stacked filter media. Bubble trap on left side separating return pump from filter media. Return pump tees off and excess flow directed to the right of the center filter stack into refugium. Refugium then overflows into filter section before getting back to return side. Put drains in each section of sump. Drill sump for ice probe.
Hopefully the descriptions made sense and I didnt forget anything.
Well I actually ended up with a 50G tank, not 55 (that one was tempered, so no-go). The 50 is the same width as the 30, conveniently, so won't even have to modify the lights! 18" wide vs. 12".
Edit: To clarify, it's less of a stand and more of a DIY piece of furniture. My friend gave me the 'surface' his tanks used to be on - 8'x2' welded aluminum frame topped with plywood, finished in pine veneer/gloss. For reference the aluminum frame on its own weighs about 80lbs - heavy duty indeed. I will post pics at some point when time allows. Suffice it to say I'm able to fabricate whatever stand is required.
Okay, I will try to fit rebuttal questions on the same numbers you used
1. Gotcha.
2. I am actually planning to go 'tunnel through' the overflow box, if that makes sense.
3. Both sides of the tank will be 'viewable', so ideally I'd keep all the piping the same colour, but haven't thought this far ahead yet.
4. Yes, it is!
5. Now that I have the 50G and 18" width, internal should be fine.
6. Yes, BeanAnimal's design thread (150 pages...) has references to keeping the depth only as deep as necessary to fit plumbing, similar idea to width.
7. Great point about having a return pointing under the box, would not have thought of this!
8. Yes, I've read that calling a number of glass shops is best, thanks.
9. I thought about that, but I think glass will end up looking a little more professional, no?
10. Good point. I have a number of submersible heaters, and now with using the 30G as a sump, should have plenty of room.
11. Yep, part of my calculations.
12. Yeah, going to try and get everything as level as possible. Going to be extremely difficult due to how uneven the floor is.
13. My drains have to be submersed, but sounds like either way will work, and both are not required at the same time.
14. This part I'm still uncertain about - the sump design. Will expand below.
There seems to be a number of different methods for bio-filtration, or rather how it's implemented. Also a number of different types of media. Let me try and explain my plan a little more clearly. It will be laid out in a progressive/linear fashion.
1. The drains will be coming out the center of the tank and down, then over on an angle to the left (if you are facing it) side of the tank
2. Drains (Primary siphon, secondary siphon, emergency siphon) enter chamber#1 below water line
3. First area fills and flows over through foam and into chamber#2
4. Chamber#2 filled with pot scrubbies acting as primary bio-filter
5. Water flows over into chamber#3
6. Chamber#3 houses refugium/breeding area (??)
7. Water flows through sponge (fail-safe filter prior to pumps) over into chamber#4
8. Chamber#4 contains pumps/heaters/return lines
Key design point is that the water always has the option to overflow if the chamber gets blocked.
Crappy paint diagram (Brown = sponge/foam, Green = ideal water level):
Does that clarify what I'm thinking? Thoughts?
And to revisit my initial questions:
Return placement - ideal flow pattern for heavily planted tank?
1. Circular (create a circular current)
2. Placed for maximum surface disruption
3. Near the top, or bottom of the tank?
I am thinking pandacory's idea of having one flowing under the overflow box is a good idea, although will require either unattractive or restrictive plumbing. So one return (the lower-rated pump) will be on the end pushing water across the back wall of the tank, under the overflow box.
Guess I still need to do some reading on idea flow patterns for planted tanks.
In your drawing, do you have enough room in the sump for the water that will drain down from a power outage? I know the Bean Animal has very little water that drains down, but just making sure!
Test some flow patterns, even in a smaller tank. Toss in some stuff the floats, and some stuff that sinks slowly. See where it goes when the water is aimed in different ways.
In the picture above I would have the dark blue plumbing outlets aimed almost directly toward the viewer. The maximum flow is across the surface of the tank, then down along the front glass. If you see debris accumulating under the box then yes, the smaller pump could clear that. Or you could put a T in the line and have some water going each way.
Is this going to be viewed from more than one side? Which sides?
My concern about the Bean Animal is that the water enters it from the upper surface, and this seems to me allows debris to stay on the substrate. Not enough water movement to keep it suspended until it is removed. Great system for surface scum, though. I would not want duckweed or similar plants in this system, but I do not see a problem with the occasional leaf of something else drifting around.
Excellent points, thanks Diana.
1. Yes, I will be allowing for the excess return (and testing extensively in the garage).
2. Great idea for testing, I will definitely try that out.
3. It will be viewed from the 'long' sides (front and back). Yes, I realize one side will have plumbing - that's my office viewing angle :) .
4. I agree with the floating plants, but perhaps the duckweed could be tied to a suction cup, 'anchoring' it? (not even sure I'd use duckweed, but would be nice to have that option down the line)
5. Could the debris along the substrate be moved/pulled upwards with a high enough turnover rate? I'm hoping the shrimpies will help with sunken debris.
Ok, after more reading and thought, this looks to be an acceptable direction....
1. Returns at one end of the tank. One enters the tank below the overflow box with a 90- degree elbow to point down the back wall. One enters the tank through the overflow box with a 45- or 30-degree elbow pointed toward the front wall of the tank.
2. The two primary drain lines located at the opposite end from the returns, with the emergency drain at the return end of the tank.
3. Drains into filter sock for mechanical filtration (chamber#1=6" wide)
4. Baffle (1") then pot scrubbie bio-filtration (chamber#2 = 6" wide)
5. Baffle (1") then refugium (chamber#3 = 15" wide)
6. Baffle (1") then return area (chamber#4 = 6" wide)
1. Dual returns will allow me to keep a high turnover (dual pumps ~1200GPH, closer to 900GPH with head losses; still more than the usual recommendation of 10x capacity for turnover in a planted tank)
2. Why separate the drains? It is conceivable that a plant or large leaf could become detached, float into the overflow box and clog both the primary and secondary drains. If the emergency drain is in the same vicinity, a remote but plausible possibility is it getting clogged as well. Placing it on the other end reduces that chance.
3. The filter sock method should allow for easier maintenance/cleaning.
4. Enough room for bio-filter? Total scrubbie volume is ~6x12x12" (0.5cu.ft.).
5. Refugium will be for breeding the shrimp, also heavily planted.
6. 6" might be too narrow to fit the return plumbing/pumps and the heaters nicely, not a big deal to move the baffles if this is the case.
Moving on to other items (like pipe size calculations and sump overflow calcs), but still readily accepting input. Thanks thus far!
If the returns are placed near the skimmer then floaters will stay away from the skimmer. I accidently did that a while back. Sure seems like it would destroy the surface skimming but I didn't notice any build up at the time. Putting a *loose* screen around the skimmer box at the water level keeps floaters away nicely. It isn't attractive but probably looks better than a floater corral.
Placing the skimmer box at one end of the tank makes for a far cleaner display. When I took the background off my 5' tank I was able to move it to the end and it looked great. I cannot do that on this acrylic tank and it really makes a difference. I love jcdg's set up, external is even better......
My drain area grows fish. It turns out there isn't much turbulence in there at all and lots of food as debris collects on the sponges and grows lots of goodies. Surface area is still as the drains dump under the surface. If I pull out the heaters and take off the drain tubes it is easy to catch the fish. My sump just has drain area with large area for heaters, sponges [mechanical and biological], return area with no permanent dividers. In retrospect i wouldn't turn down a couple of dividers that would force water through the whole sponge area however.
Currently my second pump is in the tank under the internal HOB skimmer box with a spray bar located at the far end of my very long tank as I was concerned about stagnant water under the box. What if one pump's return either was a spraybar with a hole near enough the top to act as a siphon break or was divided with part as a spray bar and the rest just a nozzle return? I doubt you want a nozzle at the substrate level!
I suspect returns and drains at one end of a normal sized tank works fine IF you have the 10x flow suggested. I don't have that and am more comfortable with returns and drains at opposite ends of my 8' long tank. In the 5' tank with ~3x you could see stuff just floating down at 4' from the return so I had no faith that water was moving at the far side of the glass at all.
Shrimp will demolish the debris. My sump had the usual build up of mulm on the bottom, put some cherry shrimp in and it was GONE.
Sorry Kathyy, I must not have been clear, I meant to keep the returns at one end, the drains at the other, so that plus the high turnover should be ok. Both the sump and the display tanks are 36" wide.
Diana, I was re-thinking the returns - you had suggested placing them at either end pointing straight, to maximize surface agitation.
Will the long overflow weir not do a similar thing? Also, there will be agitation where the drains enter the sump. Still necessary to to have the returns creating surface agitation from both sides? (I am thinking one to agitate the surface, one to flow under the overflow box.)
Is this an in wall build? Sounds like it is when you said one broad side is viewable from the office side.
If it is, I have always wanted to do an in wall river style tank. With overflow on the right and return on left, or vis versa. You could dial up/down the flow to suit the fish, and with the overflow on one side, you could sacrifice a little tank length but drill the drains in the bottom of the tank and do a single glass wall to create an overflow with no overhang to worry about.
Not in-wall...rather will function as a room divider, if that makes sense. My office (read: desk) is in the corner of an oddly-shaped room.
I will do up something in SketchUp when I have some time, will clear things up, I think.
Go with filter socks rather than foam. Best mechanical filtration I've ever used. You can find them in varying micron sizes, in fact they can filter everything from 200 microns all the way down to 1 micron if you choose. That's better than a DE filter. Just buy 3 or more.
Why you need all the foam in-between the chambers? Just have the drain pipe going into the filter socks.
Look into getting a media reactor, check out's Bulk Reef Supply's dual chamber reactor. I use it as both a bio and chemical reactor. My first chamber is filled with Seachem Matrix and the second with Purigen or carbon if I need it.
Also, implement a way to drain the sump to allow you to conduct water changes at the turn of a valve or switch of a second pump.
Raul-7 - you mean use the reactor housing as a bio-filter? Thanks for the filter sock vote, I could probably do away with the first bit of foam, but would keep the second as a fail-safe - just in case the filter sock completely backed up and overflowed.
The drain valve is a good idea, I will reconsider the plumbing.
Hm, I like the idea of the the external overflow box keeping plumbing out of the tank, but really don't like the thought of a box full of water, made of glass, with the only mechanical bond being the caulking. Now that I have the extra room in the tank, we'll just go with the internal overflow as planned.
Also read a bit more on surface skimming, seems like it definitely could help with water clarity, aside from what Diana mentioned about floating plants being a minor downside.
I am figuring there could be up to 70-75 gallons of water at one time, so will be going with 1.25" drain plumbing. That should be able to flow around 1000GPH, well past the 700-800GPH I'll need for 10x turnover, with some to spare. 1" flows 600GPH (http://saltwater.aquaticcommunity.co...umbing-basics/) which is not enough. I've also read that 2x capacity for the drain is ideal, but with the BeanAnimal setup I shouldn't need to oversize that much.
Return plumbing design is next up, the pumps' combined lowest GPH rating is 760GPH, assuming that means with their intake adjusted all-the-way-closed to all-the-way-open? The other numbers combined is ~1200GPH. At any rate, the highest they should have to pump is 3-3.5', so 1200GPH minus losses (300GPH for height, 120GPH for two 90 elbows, 100GPH for check valves) brings it to around 750GPH, which is just about right (and I am being somewhat conservative with those loss estimates).
Also, some SketchUp sump diagrams coming soon...

John Legend Condemns Tax Cuts at White House Motown Event
On Thursday night (Feb. 24), President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama honored Motown Records with a special concert event at the White House. Performers included Stevie Wonder, Smokey Robinson, Seal and John Legend, who gave politicians a mouthful of negative feedback on their tax initiatives.
Legend expressed his frustration with the government's recent decision to provide tax cuts for wealthy citizens, including himself. "People fought to give me — a millionaire — a tax cut this year," he said. "I didn't need it. And all the other millionaires didn't need it either."
He scolded lawmakers for cutting taxes for the rich, at the expense of axing cultural community organizations such as arts and singing programs. "I hope our politicians will not think that they are expendable and they can just get rid of them and nobody will feel the pain," he continued. "Because I think society will feel the pain. I'm really frustrated with some of the discourse that's coming out of Washington."
The Motown Records event was part of the White House's ongoing celebration of Black History Month.

Need help repairing Hardwood floors
Evening all.
I am new to the site, and hoping that maybe some folks here could be of assistance. I have hardwood floors (oak maybe?) that are really light in color. Unfortunately, I never put protection guards on the bottom of my couches when I moved in. Over the last few years, the couches have caused some significant scratches in the hardwood floors from moving about. I now have guards on the couches, but it does me no good for the scratches already in place!
I have tried sanding, wood filler, stain and polyurethane. I've even tried rubbing oil onto the scratched part of the wood. The problem is that no matter what I do, the end result is that the scratched part comes out looking darker than the rest of the finished floor. I've only tried on a couple spots, and I'd rather have the scratches than what I'm doing to the floor in my attempts. Any pointers on what I might be able to do would be very much appreciated!!
You might try WoodEpox, part of the epoxy wood restoration process from Abatron. You may find you have better control over color of an epoxy filler than trying to match a wood putty type colored filler. You may end up having to sand the floors down to the depth of the scratches for true uniformity again.
Try staining in stages
you are lucky you can re stain them. I would thin down the stain and do it in stages to blend it in.
i had an unlucky customer that had some poor quality bamboo floors with an aluminum oxide finish and had to rip them out and replace 2 boxes of hardwood. lucky they had extra boxes laying around.

Be Strict About Bedtime, Even If You're Not There for It
A study published in 2013 in the journal Pediatrics found that seven-year-olds who had irregular bedtimes had more behavioral problems than did those with consistent bedtimes. And the longer the lack of a strict bedtime went on, the worse the problems became. If you work outside the home, it's hard to come through the door and immediately tuck the kids into bed. Who wouldn't want to spend an extra hour playing when you haven't seen them all day? But sticking to bedtime is better for your family. "We all make sacrifices," says Heather Taylor, Ph.D., a psychologist at the Morrissey-Compton Educational Center, in Palo Alto, California. "If a parent can't be there, call or video-chat to say good night. Just be part of the routine."

Canada businesses beginning to spend again, Flaherty says
OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian businesses, which former Bank of Canada Governor Mark Carney once accused of sitting on piles of cash, are beginning to spend again, Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty said on Wednesday.
"We're beginning to see some life and some action," he said of the businesses' investment activity, at a conference examining the budget he delivered on Tuesday.
However, he said there was not as much business investment as he would like.

2013 BMW M6 Review - Plenty of Power and Weight - But Does it Matter?
Ignition's Carlos Lago provide us with a well put together video review of the 2013 BMW M6 convertible. Having driven the
M6 Convertible
I agree with much of his assessment of the all new M6 convertible, up to a point. Yes the M6 convertible weights in at 4500lbs but it is a big car and more importantly it does not drive like it.
Mr. Lago misses this point entirely, instead acting as if BMW intentionally made the M6 heavier just to see if they could master the "engineering exercise" of also making it handle well. Weight is considered the enemy of performance but the M6 rockets from 0-60 in 4.3 seconds and has a near perfect 50.9/49.1% weight distribution. If you can make a grand touring car that has all the comfort and technology you could ever want while providing more performance then you can use on the street does the weight really matter?
I for one argue that it does not. The M6 is not a race car, it is a grand touring machine that is as much about style as it is performance and gives the driver generous helping of both. What do you think, does the weight of the M6 matter if it goes like hell?

A Tax Friendly State for Retirement - Pennsylvania
Planning your retirement? Concerned about taxes? Traditions of America would like to make sure you have a complete picture of the tax advantages of Pennsylvania. Because we know active adults are looking for ways to pursue their dreams with more money in their pockets.
Did you know that Kiplinger's has several times named Pennsylvania one of the best tax-friendly states for retirees? In 2011, they described the state this way:
Carl and Connie Evans, Traditions of America at Hanover, in Bethlehem, PA:
"Moving here was a smart financial move," said Connie. "The money we've saved allows us to pursue our hobbies and develop new interests."
To learn more, download this cost of living comparison which looks at five states – Maryland, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia. As the chart on the comparison to the left shows, Pennsylvania is a terrific value compared to the other regional options - no wonder it's considered one of the best states to retire.

My Relay For a Cure post 20
After the reflection blog post, my teacher decided to make blog posts required ever other week instead of every week, which is why I didn't post anything last week. The idea behind it is that some weeks people didn't have time to work on their projects, so this way blog posts would be more substantial.
The first thing I did since writing my last post was attend a captain's meeting. I didn't know about it until I was told from my partner and co-captain about it because he wasn't able to go. He wanted me to go so we had somebody from our group there to get any information from the meeting. I thought the meeting was from 7-8, but when I got there I found out it was from 6-7. This isn't as bad as it sounds, I got there a little before 7 (because early is on time and on time is late) so all of the Relay people were still there and were able to give me all of the information I needed to get from that meeting. Now I have in paper the time for the next meeting, so I will make sure to be there at the correct time.
Another addition made to 20 time based on the reflection blog posts was that starting last Friday, we are going to give in class minute-long presentations updating the class on how our projects are going. Only 8 people go every Friday, in order to make the rest of the time available for people to work on their projects. On Friday when Mr. Provenzano said that we would be starting presentations, people with names near the top of the class list alphabetically were moaning because they thought they would have to present that day. Mr. P ended by saying we would do presentations starting at the END of the alphabet. This made everyone with a last name starting with B and C happy, and everyone at the end of the alphabet started to groan. I, on the other hand, jumped out of my desk excited and to present for the class. I am he last person in my class alphabetically, so I was up first. I explained to my class about my fundraising and meetings I have attended to further my knowledge about the event. After presenting, I felt like I broke the tension for other people to present knowing it is not that bad to stand in front of a class and in 1 minute talk about what you have been working on for 6 months.
Also, I changed my blog's background to a bunch of basketballs because March Madness has started and I LOVE MARCH MADNESS

First off, what team are you routing for??? Secondly, I love how you filled in all your readers in the first paragraph so we weren't left hanging. As I am sure I have said before I love the enthusiasm you have about this project, and the great detail you gave in explaining how excited you were to share your project. Want to share with us all you took in from the new approach your teachers taking with the minute long presentations? I would love to know how you felt about your project presentation, as well as any thoughts about others.ReplyDeleteReplies
Well, I was rooting for Baylor until they lost, so now I am rooting for Dayton because they are the cinderella team of this year. I think the idea behind the minute presentations is to prepare us for the final presentation, and I think they are helping to prepare us.Delete

I usually use Friday to give a matchup preview of the weekend's football game so all of my loyal readership (I'm looking at you, Gary) can watch the game as an intelligent viewer.
Well, I can't let you down, so I will do so yet again, however, with two games taking place in Clifton this will be a special Double Issue.
Typically, when you see the double issue in Sports Illustrated or some other reputable organization, it arrives twice as thick and overflowing with content.
That's not the case here.
I will tackle twice the teams in the same amount of space. Some may call this laziness (and they wouldn't be all wrong, but with a 12-hour day ahead tomorrow, I'm not real concerned) but I PR spin this as actually much tougher to do. Rather than you wasting your time sifting through loads of info, I strain and push myself to pick out the most pertinent pieces of information to impress and inform your tailgate.
Spread the word, my sons and daughters. Spread the word.
Let's run chronilogcically...
IPFW vs. UC
Player to watch: Dion Dixon
Dixon disappointed in the opener. After five strong exhibition games and months of progress, Dixon probably put a bit too much pressure on himself. There's little reason to expect Dixon's struggles against Mount St. Mary's to become a season-long problem, but Cronin admitted he needs to be sure Dixon doesn't get too far down on himself after a bad game.
A strong rebound for Dixon would go a long way to restoring any confidence lost in the opener at a position UC desperately needs Dixon to thrive in this year.
More than that, IPFW will hoist up 3-pointers by the truckload. Perimeter defense will play a major role in UC avoiding what happened to Xavier, who was pushed into overtime by the Mastadons. Dixon's defense will probably be more important than his offense in the grand scheme of this game.
Statistic to watch: Rebounds
Mick Cronin came away disappointed with UC's effort on the glass in the opener. Despite holding a signficant size advantage, the Cats tied the points in the paint battle and only won the rebounding margin by five.
They spent much of the week working on rebounding technique and hopefully the emphasis pays off against another much smaller team in IPFW.
IPFW's top rebounder, John Peckinpaugh, is only 6-foot-5.
Center Trey McCorkle is 6-10, 235 pounds, but hasn't been much on the boards in the first two games of the year.
Best case scenario
Bearcats offense thrives -- for 40 minutes. Yancy Gates goes double-double 20-10, Dixon rebounds to post 18 points, Cashmere Wright has seven assists without a turnover. The Bearcats win the rebounding battle by 15 and create 20 turnovers.
UC posts 100 points and the university decides midway through the game that if the Cats reach 100 the ticket stub will be worth a free 3-way at Skyline.
Worst case scenario
See, Xavier, Tuesday. Then add IPFW getting hot in OT and pulling the upset. The university decides midway through the game in a falsely confident manner to let the Bearcat mascot be property of IPFW the rest of the year if they lose and, consequently, school spirit lags the rest of the season.
Rutgers at UC
Player to watch (offense): Armon Binns
The common thread through UC wins has been the performance of Binns. When the Bearcats win, Binns plays well. Their biggest win of the year against Louisville was Binns best game.
With so much uncertainty surrounding the Bearcats defense right now, the Bearcats need to post points. Doing that against Rutgers usually comes through the air. They are 25th in the country in total defense, but 64th in pass efficiency defense.
Also, no starter in the Rutgers defensive backfield is taller than 6-foot-1. Binns should be able to haul in some jump balls over the top of the smallish defenders.
Player to watch (defense): Dan Giordano
Quietly, Giordano has become one of the best players on the Bearcats. He leads the team in tackles for loss (8) and sacks (4).
Loudly, Rutgers offensive line has been a bumbling disaster.
The Scarlet Knights are dead last in FBS in sacks allowed. It's not pretty. If Giordano can dominate the line like many DL have against Rutgers this year, the pressure can make up for the youth in the Bearcats defensive backfield.
Best case scenario
The defense turns the corner and owns the inept Rutgers offense for its first shutout of the season. Derek Wolfe and Dan Giordano combine for 5 sacks, the Bearcats create four turnovers.
It turns into a wave of momentum on the defense and the young group comes together over the final three games of the season and into a bowl game.
Worst case scenario
Anything that ends in an L. It doesn't matter how it happens.

Hi there,
I am new to the forums and would like to propose a counterpoint that addresses the "Can God create a rock so heavy that he can't lift it?" paradox.
I have added the following to the Wiki:
Of course a person of the Catholic faith might argue that this paradox can be resolved by the idea of the "Holy Trinity", in so much that the "Heavenly Father" could easily create a rock that Jesus, being human, could not lift. Since they believe the "Heavenly Father" and Jesus are one and the same, Catholics in theory can answer the question with a clear "yes".

Census Bureau Releases Poverty Data for 2010
Sep 13, 2011
How many more have to fall into poverty before we say enough? That should be the question every American asks the nation's policymakers as they begin debating President Obama's jobs package and how to cut more than a trillion dollars from the nation's deficit over the next decade. Today, the U.S. Census Bureau released data revealing we not only have a jobs crisis, we have a poverty crisis. A record 46.2 million live in poverty, defined by Census as less than $22,113 annually for a family of four. Deep poverty is worsening as well. The number of people living in households at less than 50 percent of the federal poverty threshold (about $11,056 a year or less for a family of four) increased to 20.5 million or 6.7 percent of the population. Children are particularly vulnerable, with 22 percent of all children living in poverty, up from 20.7 percent, and one in four children (25.9 percent) 5 and under poor.
Although the increase in poverty is not unexpected, we cannot dismiss it as merely a byproduct of the recent economic recession and corresponding net job loss. The truth is that for the last decade, poverty has continually increased. When the stock market was rallying and unemployment was relatively low, families were falling into poverty. The federal poverty rate in 2000 was 11.3 percent. It's now 15.1 percent, the highest level since 1993. Poverty is increasing, wages are stagnating, median incomes are falling, and economic inequality is rising. A broader look at poverty trends reveals we are going backward, and in recent years even when the country was on firmer economic footing, prosperity was not shared. Read CLASP's full statement on the 2010 poverty data >>
CLASP commentary on the 2010 poverty data:
Poverty data released today tell a cold truth about a rich nation that could do better. The U.S. is now home to 46.2 million poor people according to the latest Census Bureau report on income, poverty and health. That's about one in seven or 15.1 percent and the largest number in the 52 years for which poverty estimates have been published. The big numbers muscle out an important back story: without government programs, poverty levels would be even worse.
Every day we hear about another economic indicator, another predictor about whether the economy is up or down, in recovery or in decline. But we don't hear about a more pressing indicator of our national health: the poverty status of our children. We don't see the faces of the many children who face tougher odds on the path to adulthood because more and more of them are growing up poor.
I'm tired of talking about poverty. I'm tired of talking about how black folks fare worse on every measure of well being. I'm tired of talking about how many are unemployed, how many don't go to college, how many are failing in school and how many children live in single-parent homes. It seems every week another entity releases yet another report that quantifies the plight of black America. Today, the U.S. Census Bureau released its annual poverty data. Not surprisingly, given the nation's economic condition and the lack of jobs, the report reveals poverty has increased.

The best bowling alleys in the Twin Cities
These eight metro lanes offer something for every type of bowler.
Updated 2/10/2015
The bowling strike might be the single most gratifying sporting sound that most of us ever get to enjoy. Just about anyone can, at least once in a while, get an 11-pound ball to hit that first pin just right, setting off a wonderfully destructive and noisy domino effect.
There are dozens of bowling options around the Twin Cities. But picking the right bowling alley for your personality and mood on a given night can be a bit like finding the right ball: You wander around for a while and check the feel of a few different ones — "Oh, this one's pink!" — until finally your fingers slip right into the holes, a perfect fit. To help you figure out where you belong, Vita.mn dispatched teams of amateur bowling critics to eight different spots around the Twin Cities.
After all, bowling is a chance to indulge your inner troublemaker. Thankless and tireless machines have taken the time to tidy up after the people who came before you, carefully setting up pins, each in its place. Do your worst.
Town Hall Lanes
5109 34th Av. S., Mpls. • 612-767-3354 • www.townhalllanes.com
Go here if… you live in south Minneapolis. Like, way south. Once there, you'll find a 10-lane joint that's family friendly (in-house root beer!), with bright lighting and a generally cheery wait staff. As you roll, you'll take note of the nostalgic-themed signs along the back wall, urging you to follow through and, of course, to drink beer. The family approach comes with a bit of a curfew: A sign posted near the lanes warns that no first frames of bowling can start after midnight. If you make it that deep into the night, scoot over to the taphouse side of the building, where they'll continue to serve Town Hall Brewery's standbys, seasonals and guest brews.
Flaherty's Arden Bowl
1273 W. County Rd. E, Arden Hills • 651-633-1777 • www.flahertysbowl.com
Go here if… your uncle is in town. Especially if he's Irish. Flaherty's is the kind of place that previous generations of Minnesotans will recognize visiting in their youth — indeed, it might actually be the same place. Celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, the alley lays claim to being the oldest family-owned bowling establishment in the country. That history is depicted in the alley's backdrop, where a series of black and white (admittedly, mostly white) photos capture scenes of fellows hanging out from days gone by. The same scenes can be found still today, with a high rate of mustaches and baldness signaling guys taking a night off from their families. There's no music, so you'll have to content yourself with the sounds of clattering pins and chattering bowlers, including a lot of sarcastic clapping. Your uncle loves that kind of humor.
Bryant Lake Bowl
810 W. Lake St. Mpls. • 612-825-3737 • www.bryantlakebowl.com
Go here if… you dress better than you bowl. Let's be honest: BLB is probably not ready to host a Professional Bowling Association event. With chipped balls, slightly warped lanes and the occasional mechanical failure, 300 is more likely to be your bar tab than your score. But what it lacks in bowling bona fides is more than made up by its style. Servers are quick on their feet, and even quicker with a joke. The food is on par with anything in Uptown. Also important, and undeniable: BLB attracts the attractive and lures the alluring, and just about everyone's in the mood to chat. A bit of smack talk with the neighboring group can lead to some friendly, flirty competition. You'll be handed a plain white sheet and a half-pencil to keep score. Pretend you don't know how, and ask someone nearby for help. That one always works.
Elsie's Restaurant, Bar and Bowling Center
729 NE. Marshall St., Mpls. 612-378-9701. www.elsies.com
Go here if… your best score is higher than your weight. Elsie's is a bowler's bowling alley, the kind of stripped-down space that makes even the amateurs want to button on a shirt with a nickname sewn into the breast pocket. Elsie's features serious league bowling – sanctioned by no less than the United States Bowling Congress, which apparently exists — and some pretty competitive non-league games from its regulars. People come here to score big, so don't be surprised if the scoreboards around you start filling up with X's. If you don't want to watch others succeed, there's going to be some kind of ball game on the TV next to your scoreboard. If you don't want to bowl at all, you can retreat to the backroom bar, where you can trade a game of skill for one of chance and try your hand at pull tabs while the colliding pins next door acting as a soothing audio backdrop.
Memory Lanes
2520 26th Av. S., Mpls. • 612-721-6211 • www.memorylanesmpls.com
Go here if… You have a split personality. After all, so does this place. Most nights, Memory Lanes is a standard, classic bowling hall, with all the trappings. Its 30-lane facility is bright and spacious, with plenty of room to separate the serious bowlers from the one-timers and screwoffs. The "Flashback Café" serves typical diner-style fare. (The sandwich portion of the menu proudly associates itself with the "Hormel" logo; do with this information what you will.) But, among the young set, Memory Lanes is probably best known for the times when it cuts loose. Every Monday is "Punk Bowl" night, where loud, aggressive bands take up the center lanes and provide a hardcore soundtrack for the night's bowlers. To some, all that noise might be a distraction. Bowlers with a wild side might find it's just what they've been looking for.
Ran-Ham Bowling Center
490 Hamline Av. S., St. Paul • 651-698-0252 • www.crnook.com
Go here if… you prefer charm. Just a few years back, there was word that this St. Paul institution might have to close down. Instead, the eight-lane gem was taken over by the owners of its upstairs neighbor bar, Casper and Runyon's Nook. Bowling here is cheap and popular — on a recent weekend night, each of the eight lanes went from empty to full in 30 minutes. It's mostly families, but area college kids can also get their kicks thanks to its dive-y vibe and its cheap prices. The bar area off to the side is not for the claustrophobic, with small groups packed in like bowling shoes along the wall. Scores are kept on a big, manual sheet, one that suggests you'll be sticking around for more than a couple games.
Midway Pro Bowl
1556 University Av. W., St Paul • 651-646-1396 • www.midwayprobowl.com
Go here if… you can't quite figure out if you live in Minneapolis or St. Paul. This alley is easy to miss on your first pass — wedged into a strip-mall location, just next to a Walgreen's drug store. Customers traipse down a flight of stairs to find 32 lanes available. The staff are pleasant but firm as they remind amateurs to please be mindful of the league bowlers nearby. The non-league crowd here is an interesting mix. Young punk girls with lots of makeup stroll past dads taking young boys out for the night. As with other nearby University Avenue businesses, the alley looks forward to the eventual opening of the light rail line. Until then, Midway is encouraging people to put up with the construction headache by offering $2 games weekdays before 6 p.m.

The staff is pleasant but firm as they remind amateurs to please be mindful of the league bowlers nearby. The non-league crowd here is an interesting mix. Young punk girls with lots of makeup stroll past dads taking young boys out for the night. Black and white families bowl side-by-side. As with other nearby University Avenue. businesses, the alley looks forward to the eventual opening of the light rail line. Until then, Midway is encouraging people to put up with the construction headache by offering $2 games every weekday before 6 p.m.
Park Tavern
3401 Louisiana Av. S., St. Louis Park • 952-929-6810 • www.parktavern.net
Go here if… you want to play "Choose Your Own Suburban Adventure." For the city hipster, this brush with honest-to-God flannels and styled goatees might seem like a sociology class. Park Tavern is sports-centric, and the game or games are never far from one's field of vision: Bowlers can choose to watch from any of five flat-screen TVs posted on the lanes. Off to the right is the "11th Frame" bar, with its pool tables, dart boards and a crowd loud enough to drown out the bowling. Near the entrance is a large, separate sports bar with booths and high-backed chairs. Customers have to choose which of those spots is preferable to purchase beverages, as Park Tavern doesn't send servers out for bowlers. As for food, expect something that's either fried and covered in cheese and/or barbecue sauce. You'll need a napkin before it's your turn.Back To Top

My mom is weiner-sitting for a friend of hers this weekend, and i wasnt sure i'd get along with this new dog. he's a bit shorter than me, and smaller all-together, and mommy was afraid because his mommy said he was dog aggressive that we wouldnt get along. Could they be more WRONG! We've had GREAT fun together all weekend goofin off and ignoring all the peoples. Mommy said it sounded like she has a pack of miniature wild black elephants stampeding through the house. It's really just mister and i though. Only thing i have to teach him is to STOP trying to hump me all the time! If mommy sees it she tells mister off, and even though i've told him time and time again that IM the boss and he seems to accept that he still tries to lick my face and HUMP me.
Anyways, maybeee if mommy can get pictures other than black fluffy streaks (like if we could stand still for a confoundit minute) then we'll post some pictures of me and my new best buddy mister! He's a 2 y/o miniature long-haired dachshund.

LONGO, José Milton and FISCHER, Erich. Effect of nectar secretion rate on pollination and seed production by Passiflora speciosa Gardn. flowers (Passifloraceae) in the Pantanal. Rev. bras. Bot. [online]. 2006, vol.29, n.3, pp.481-488. ISSN 0100-8404. http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/S0100-84042006000300015.
We verified the effect of nectar secretion rate (NSR) on the pollinator frequency and the number of seeds per Passiflora speciosa Gardn. flowers in the Pantanal Wetlands. The plant was pollinated by hummingbirds and presented self-incompatibility. The NSR varied as a function of flower diameter, and number of hummingbird visits was a function of flower diameter. The number of seeds per flower of P. speciosa increased with the number of pollinator visits. The frequency of nectar thieves had no significant effect on seed set, but total number of hummingbird visits was negatively correlated with the total number of visits by nectar and/or pollen thieves. The overall results indicate that flower size affects NSR, which could determine the number of pollinator visits and the success of seed set per Passiflora speciosa flowers.
Keywords : flower size; foraging; hummingbird; nectar secretion; seed set.

Do you mean the whole sight base or just the post?
I'll have to check mine, but I think it's a standard AKM front sight base.
You could also get ahold of Cadiz Gun Works, they are the official warranty repair shop for all RAA Saigas.
BigAl just did a Saiga .308 conversion. He should still have an extra Saiga front sight base. Give him a PM.
I'll look.
Thanks guys, yea, the whole thing is gone.
On a couple of my Saiga .308 conversions I used the Ace Front site. Excellent little piece of hardware.
I removed the stock FSB and threaded and attached a muzzle brake. Added the Ace Clamp On Site. The shorter distance between the rear and front site significantly improves my accuracy using irons for sure. After hundreds of milsurp 7.62X51 both guns are rock solid.
100 yard target:
couple of attempts at 200 yards;
I can acquire the site picture much quicker with the shorter distance between front and rear. Now in all fairness my eyesight is that of an old man. What a minute....I am an old man :) So a younger guy with better eyesight may not realize a benefit.
Here I just took a few pics in my gun "closet"....and yes I built it off the master...it is climate/humidity controlled and my wife took it over and now have clothes hanging all over everywhere.....just like my beer fridge in the shop is now full of her stuff....oh well.....
Here is a Saiga .308 I have converted/AK74 muzzle brake and the Ace front sight I am talking about.....
Here is another Saiga .308 I just moved the FSB back and muzzled it...
Couple of other Saigas I have in there....
Many more in the safes out in the shop :)
And for the record....that "lil" .308 I moved the FSB back on, has a Primary Arms M3 red dot and a 5X quick disconnect magnifier. Thing is deadly out to 400 yards.....I highly recommend that setup for close and medium distance work. Very dependable and inexpensive.
