UPDATE 2-Genpact Q2 profit in line with St, revenue trails
* Q2 EPS $0.14 vs. est $0.14
* Q2 revenue $272.9 mln vs. est $280.6 mln
* Lowers FY rev outlook * Shares fall as much as 7 pct (Recasts; adds conference call details, analyst comments, share movement)
By Deepti Govind
BANGALORE, Aug 4 (Reuters) - Genpact Ltd (G.N: Cotización) posted a quarterly profit in line with expectations on higher global client revenue, but lowered its 2009 revenue growth outlook due to the uncertain economic environment, sending its shares down 7 percent.
The business process and technology services provider said while the economy may have reached a bottom, it has not yet demonstrably improved, particularly for its client base.
"The company is two to three quarters away from revenue growth accelerating," said Kaufman Bros analyst Karl Keirstead, who rates the stock a "hold."
On a conference call with analysts, Genpact said decision-making by clients is still slow. Clients are taking longer to move forward on projects where upfront costs would be significant, it added.
"This quarter and the next quarter are probably going to be the slowest quarters for revenue growth," Robert Baird & Co analyst David Koning said. Continuación...

Wired into PC motherboard, Trusted Platform Module offers multilayer e-authentication
Almost everyone working in an office uses a computer connected to a network. So computer users should be aware of the daily challenges information technology departments face in fighting viruses, malware and Trojan horses. They should also be aware of emerging threats such as identity theft initiated through e-mails that trick users into believing they are on a legitimate Web site. The usual suspects for this phishing activity are penny-ante thieves who want names, bank account numbers and passwords.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology, the General Services Administration, the Homeland Security Department and the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) all agree: When someone's true identity is essential, a name and password are not enough. In e-authentication, multifactor — more than one security function — hardware-based security tokens are becoming a requirement for sensitive data or high-value transactions that involve user identities.
Recent government legislation and directives — such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 — have created requirements limiting who has access to systems and data and controlling access based on policies and authorizations.
Until recently, strong authentication meant distributing separate tokens or devices, including smart cards, RSA SecureIDs, biometric readers or USB keys to users. Because this approach meant incremental purchase and support costs, such devices have been used for relatively specialized applications.
Then a new security hardware technology standard, called the Trusted Platform Module (TPM), developed by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG), appeared on the scene. Now being sold in high volume in PCs, it provides multifactor authentication as an integrated feature in the PC platform at significantly lower cost.
What is TPM? It is a robust, standardized security chip that is integrated as a permanent part of the PC motherboard. Open specifications developed by TCG, an industry standards organization with more than 120 member companies, define TPM, its application programming interfaces and security protocols. TCG started with PC security specifications. It is also developing specifications for adding hardware-based security to peripherals such as disk drives, keyboards, graphics cards, mobile phones, servers and other devices. TCG is focused on providing an open-standard security solution for all computing devices and networks.
With TPM, organizations can generate keys for signing documents and files, encrypting data, measuring the software on the PC to allow checking for any unauthorized modifications and protecting identity credentials.
For federal agencies, the first step is to specify that TPM and any other authentication components such as biometric and smart card readers are required features in every new federal PC or platform. Second, TPM, with appropriate software packages, has to be integrated into agencies' existing identity directories, access systems and policy management for strong authentication. Finally, as new solutions for strong authentication emerge, TPM should be an essential platform element, regardless of the other required identity tokens.

Even More Diesel Variations for the ABT AS6
by Abt Sportsline on 7 September 2012 in Aftermarket & Tuner News
Clean lines in design, workmanship and technology for premium demands – this is what is typical for the Audi A6, no matter whether you choose a Saloon, an Avant or the versatile Allroad. Drivers who would like their elegant ride to be even sportier go for the ABT AS6. The engineers of the largest tuning company for cars from the Volkswagen Group have developed performance upgrades which highlight the characteristic features of this exceptional car even more and boost its sportiness and dynamism. The A6 version from ABT is an exceptionally elegant possibility for experiencing maximum driving enjoyment in everyday life.
The diesel engines are particularly economical and have enormous speed reserves at the same time. The 3.0 TDI is the flagship of the Audi A6, which the Bavarian company offers in various versions. With ABT POWER, 204 HP (150 kW) are transformed into a powerful 270 HP (199 kW). Depending on the respective standard power, ABT POWER
"New Generation" can achieve even more: 300 HP (221 kW) for the low-end diesel model with 245 HP (180 kW) or 360 HP (265 kW) for the 313-HP standard diesel model provide more than an extra touch of sportiness. Customers who choose the strongest version of the large diesel engine are rewarded with a gigantic torque of 700 Nm and predominance in any situation. But also the 2.0 TDI boasts great power: 205 HP or 151 kW (standard: 177 HP/130 kW) bring the ABT AS6 up to speed with a vengeance. It depends on many different factors whether you choose a diesel engine or a petrol-driven car, but the 3.0 TFSI definitely is the highlight when it comes to engines for the AS6: 420 HP or 309 kW (standard: 300 HP/ 221 kW) can satisfy any desire for power.
The ABT AS6 not only is an elegant extreme athlete, but actually looks like one. The designers developed aerodynamics components, which not only make the A6 Saloon and the Avant look more confident and powerful, but improve their driving behaviour in addition. Front spoiler, side skirts, rear spoiler and the rear skirt set with exhaust tips form a visual and technical unity and harmonise with the design vocabulary of the AS6. ABT suspension springs or electronic lowering by means of ABT Level Control for cars equipped with air springs make sure that sporting spirit and comfort are not mutually exclusive. The performance braking system provides safety, even in extreme situations, and is a perfect match for the enormous potential of the car. The performance rims from ABT are the perfect "finish" for the look of the A6. The CR and DR models in 19 to 21 inches communicate the car's enormous need for speed, even while standing still. Matching complete wheel sets with high-performance tyres are available in addition. They are an absolute must for the ABT AS6 due to its extremely sporty design.

Says Wikipedia:
"The hypolimnion is the dense, bottom layer of water in a thermally-stratified lake. It is the layer that lies below the thermocline. (...) Being at depth, it is isolated from surface wind-mixing during summer, and usually receives insufficient irradiance (light) for photosynthesis to occur."
The thermocline is a shifting layer that separates the surface from the still, life- and oxygen-deprived water below.
Companion words:
Epilimnion, the top of a lake
Metalimnion, the middle layer (changes depth as the day rolls on)

Attachment 344137
Despite the low quality, the 550 still looks good. ;)
Bummer man. Is that ticket similar to the total joke workzone tickets? You know the ones that are like $35 and no points?
I have a nice one like that of my Volvo going through the tunnel in DC. Who knew the limit was 45....
It's funny you said "who knew," I got one in DC doing 57 in a 35. I was in bit of disbelief, since I was driving on a six lane Interstate highway at the time. Seriously, 35mph on an Interstate? :rolleyes:
Looks like I'm gonna have to watch out for these cameras when I drive down to NoVA/MD next weekend.
We really don't have them up here.
That picture looks oddly familiar. I've had a couple of those in the past, mostly in PG County from the mobile speed traps they set up.
There are a few work zones in DC that have cameras. They're cleverly hidden. Fortunately I realized it at the last second and slammed on the brakes. That might be the 35 MPH ticket you got.
I've yet to encounter a speed camera in SF. But we do have lots of red light cameras.
My system provides advanced warning of these cameras thanks to a weekly updated national database of traffic cameras and a GPS sensor to figure out when you are approaching one.
Traffic Court Judge: How do you plead?
Laser: Not guilty your honor
Judge: But we have a picture of your car going through the red light
Laser: Yes sir but I was not driving it
Judge: Well who was?
Laser: I don't know your honor, I was not
Judge: Was your car stolen?
Laser: No your honor
Judge: Well, who was driving your car?
Laser: I don't know your honor ..... its my wife's car she drives it (counting on fingers) ..... but we gave it to our daughter ..... sometimes her boyfriend drives it ..... uh, she has a new boyfriend .........
Judge: (looking disgusted) Case dismissed!
But I do remember the mobile cameras in Phoenix (where i was driving rental cars) were typically operating only in areas with special reflectors and marking on the divider to validate distance. The markings looked like vertical reflectors on the concrete divider wall. So this would give you an indication of where they operated.
In DC they are recognizable by the stripes on the ground.
Big Brother gone wild...
I agree, fixed locations offer few problems - even the movable boxes on the side of the road can be anticipated and spotted given a sharp eye and quick reflexes - in Montgomery County, MD, speed cameras can only be located on roads that are clearly marked Photo Enforced". During day light hours you can usually see the obvious hiding locations v. open stretches where it is difficult to conceal cameras.
In general, cameras proliferate in my area , and I find that I drive with a heightened sense of awareness - looking for hidden camera threats on the side of the road and keeping an eye on my rear, hoping the guy following me has reflexes as good as mine, and brakes as good as my M.
More insidious, just experienced last night in the Potomac area, is the new tactic of hiding a second camera 50 yards past a more obviously placed box that one first encounters.....pure evil
In neighboring Prince Georges County, Md, the County has now resorted to placing cameras on the cameras - seems many are so perturbed by Big Brother that they are using the lenses of the speed cameras as bulls' eyes for target practice.
Soon we will have cameras that watch cameras that watch cameras.....
But of course, all of this is in the name of public safety.....I should note, I read a couple of days ago in the Washington Post, that DC has a $130 million dollar budget surplus - DC collected $65 million in speed photo fines - you can draw your own conclusion.
I have no problem with speeds cameras for school zones, hospitals, active work zones, but the cat and mouse game of placing cameras on roads where the average speed is considerably higher than the posted speed, and calling it public safety is insulting and offensive. The manner that speed cameras are being deployed constitutes a scheme to raise revenue. Politicians implicitly understand the inherent beauty of this scheme - the public coffers are replenished under the guise of public safety and politicians do not have to admit to raising taxes. (Some counties place restrictions on how the revenue can be spent - but this is a contentious ruse).
Call speed camera enforcement what it is - A TAX - and a very REGRESSIVE TAX - that hurts the financially stressed far more than more affluent persons - despicable given the wealth of the DC area.
Capo got it right another time.
The governemantal tax collection on fixed cameras is just as it is, only a small extra cost for owning a nice car.
Being trapped by patrolling cops at high speed is a real problem, even Stealth has a problem with those I am sure.
Fines and other penalties are somewhat nasty at being pulled over at speeds more than 30 miles over the limit.
You loose your license for a while have to be in court probably and will be paying a couple of full tanks of petrol for sure.
That is Europe for you...
Fixed traps really are not the problem, lasers just after a known speedtrap are.
Do not ask me how I know it.

weird, but interesting
not sure if you've thought of checking this, but if you have a vacuum leak somewhere it can throw off your cruise control. more commonly a chevy problem, but this is a possibility.
Focus Enthusiast
Thanks for the diagnostic. Mine turns on the indicator in the instrument cluster, but doesn't actually engage the cruise control. With any luck this will tell me where it has gone wrong. Again, thanks for sharing.
Focus Enthusiast
Okay I just ran the diagnosis minutes ago and flash three times it did haha!!!!!! which means "Brake deactivation switch is open or circuit is damaged"....... dude it was easy and worked like a charm....... so how do i fix the number 3 problem???
Focus Enthusiast
Ran test!!!!
everything was easy if you fallow step by step..... i read the instructions then wrote down the important steps so it would be fast to read........ ran the test and it was a success on first try.... results read 3 flashes which means Brake deactivation switch is open or circuit is damaged...... soo im going to be honest..... i just started working on cars and yeah so please tell me where to go from here!!!!!!!! thank you very much for all your help!!!!!!!
Focus Fanatic
My problem was the brake deactivation switch too. Have you had any work done on the car lately where someone would have been in drivers footwell area? Anyway, to get at the pedal switches that interact with the cruise control, you need to remove the panel underneath the steering wheel. I think the bolts are all 6 or 8 mm if I remember correctly. You will also need to get the hood release out of the way, there's a big nut on the back and a crescent wrench will loosen it some (don't remember size, might be 3/4 or something) then you pull it down out of the way; the release cable is just in a groove and the nut holds it in place. You would also need to pop the OBD scan port through the panel for the panel to come free, I think this is easiest if you get the panel loose and then use a small screwdriver or something to wedge it through the gap, look at it closely and be careful with it as it could be an expensive mistake, but it pops through pretty easily. There will be a small panel covering the OBD port and it just pops out with a finger pull at the bottom.
Once the panel is free you can get down in the footwell and examine the pedal assembly and switches. There will be 3 switches in front of the top of the pedals. The brake deactivation switch is the green one on top, stop lamp switch is grey, and clutch position switch is red. They all work the same way, they have spring loaded plungers that either open or close circuits when they extend. In the case of the brake deactivation switch, you hit the brake, the pedal arm moves away from the plunger, the plunger moves out and the circuit opens, deactivating the cruise control.
Odds are very good that green switch is faulty. The BPP switch has a ratcheting mechanism that only goes one way, so for instance, if you were to intentionally pull up on the brake pedal the plunger would go further into the switch and if you then let go of the pedal the plunger might not extend far enough back out to contact the pedal arm, and the circuit would stay open and disable the cruise control. You can test the switch by bypassing the plunger mechanism and using a little jumper wire to complete the circuit. To remove the green brake switch you rotate counter-clockwise and some tabs line up with slots and then you can pull the switch from the pedal assembly; it will be the plunger mechanism and a little wiring harness deal it mates with. You separate the two by taking a small pick or something and pulling out the square little brass tab(that's a misleading description, but you'll recognize it when you see it) it just pulls straight out and then the plunger mechanism will be free from the wiring.
I don't remember now how many wires are involved. If there are only two you can just find the corresponding connections in the bottom of the wiring harness and bridge the gap with a small (thin) jumper wire (just a small wire with stripped, nicely twisted ends like a spliff). This closes the circuit and fools the CC system into thinking that the brake pedal is in its normal position. You could then run the self diagnostic again, and if it passes you will know that the problem was the plunger switch. I'm going to try to check some schematics tomorrow and see if I can identify exactly where the jumper wire needs to go. Incidentally, you could keep the jumper wire in and leave the plunger mechanism out altogether, but then you wouldn't be able to shut off the cruise control with the brake and that's a little dangerous.
The switch was like $25 from a local dealership, so you could just buy the switch and put it in. Also, if the only thing you mess with is that green brake switch, it won't affect the car at all to leave it disconnected while you figure it out; that switch only interacts with the CC system and that's already broken, so you can't harm it anymore by leaving it disconnected.
To install the new switch, just plug the switch and harness back together, and push the square metal tab back into place. Then you have to depress the brake pedal, line up the switch correctly so it slots back in, and then turn it back clockwise until it stops. Be careful not to depress the plunger when putting the switch back in, it could effectively ruin it since it only ratchets in and doesn't come back out all the way. Then you release the brake pedal and the plunger ratchets to the correct position and that's it. Set aside plenty of time and make sure you have a good light source so you can see what's going on around the pedals.
Just realized I wrote an entire novel about a cruise control brake pedal position switch.

Focus Enthusiast
Most excellent. and welcome to hobbyist car fixing. You can learn lots on these forums. My number one advice is to find a GOOD INDIE PARTS STORE. If the store employees look like they have never heard of a PCV valve, or are experts at selling Air Fresheners, and pushing the counter product of the day... this is NOT your part store.
My part store rocks. There's several parts veterans there... and they sell to many regional repair shops. That's the first clue you are onto something. 2nd clue.. They have super good filters in stock. Look for brands like Hastings, Wix, and Purolator. When you need a part, do they have to order pretty much anything, or can they have it later today, or it's in the back..... If they seem to have nothing in stock for a car as common as a Focus, this is NOT your part store. Do they specialize in shiny lights to put under your dash board? this is NOT a parts store... it's a BS retail operation.
A good part store has real stock, smart people that get you the RIGHT part, and the prices are totally fair. There's no "super protection warranty" for an extra 20$.. none of that crap. Just parts and smart people.
My car part stores are "Car Parts Warehouse" (carpartsplus) and my most favorite. Fisher Federated (Federated Auto Parts). The big losers are the shamrock guys, and the big orange zone. the Red place with the checkered flag isn't on a hate list.. so they get me by in a pinch.

The Veronicas
With the help of two friends, the Origliasso twins formed a band, Teal, and released "Baby It's Over," a hooky single that made the twins sought-after songwriters. After honing their chops by working with several different collaborators, the Origliassos signed a publishing deal and began contributing songs to a number of performers, including Australian Idol winner Casey Donovan, Japanese pop singer Miz, and the Russian group t.A.T.u. The girls were now focused on becoming internationally successful in their own right, and they moved to Los Angeles to try their hand in America. After changing their name to the Veronicas and turning 20 years old, they landed a deal with Sire, an offshoot of Warner Bros. Records.
Sire released the Veronicas' full-length debut, The Secret Life Of..., in 2005. Although an international release followed in early 2006, the album fared best in Australia, where it generated three Top Ten singles and eventually went quadruple platinum. Hook Me Up followed in 2007, featuring a new wave-inspired sound and, once again, going multi-platinum in Australia. The girls toured in support of both albums and documented one of their jaunts with a live album, Revenge Is Sweeter Tour, in early 2010.
The Veronicas started working on their third album in January 2010, and after two years they were set to release the record in 2012. Lead single "Lolita" didn't perform well and Warner decided to push the release of the record into 2013. During the final stages of completing the record, the Veronicas continued to have troubles with their record company, culminating in a split from the label in October 2013. The duo then signed with Sony Music, releasing "Did You Miss Me?" in March of that year. Another single, called "You Ruin Me," showed up in the fall before the group's eponymous third album saw release in November; it received a U.S. release in the spring of 2015. ~ David Jeffries

KNIL is for Koninklijk Nederlands Indisch Leger (Royal Netherlands East Indies Army)
Here is a link to your weapon .... http://www.collectie.legermuseum.nl/...n/i004819.html
I picked up this rifle a number of years ago, and thought it was bubba'ed because of the cut-back fore-end. From studying this forum it seems possible it is a KNIL cavalry carbine and the lack of a nose-cap is original. The receiver wall is marked STEYR 1901 and the barrel shank number is 5466 D, and there are what appear to be small "Crown over B" stamps on the top ring and barrel. There are small gas ports on both sides of the receiver ring. The rifle itself appears matching, while the bolt matches itself, 1339. The plate reads: 5-A. II Bg. over 175 and is cut into the edge of the un-readable circular stock stamp.
A photo on the board shows a similar rifle (though in much better shape) identified as a "Karabin M.95 Cavalry KNIL". Would this be correct, and what does KNIL stand for?
Unfortunately the rifle is pretty worn and beat up with deep pitting under the wood. It's marked "ODIN ALEX VA" in small letters on the right receiver ring just above the wood.
I've got $50 in 2001 money invested in it. Any idea what it might be worth today?
Thanks in advance -
KNIL is for Koninklijk Nederlands Indisch Leger (Royal Netherlands East Indies Army)
Here is a link to your weapon .... http://www.collectie.legermuseum.nl/...n/i004819.html
Co-Author of the book:
Banzai Special Project No. 1, The Siamese Mauser, A Study Of Siamese / Thai Type 45 & Type 46 Long Rifles and Type 47 Carbines, Including An Overview Of Siamese/Thai Weapons 18602014
The little brass plate is a good indicator of use by the KNIL. It probably refers to a specific military unit and location The round cartouche would refer to the reigning Dutch monarch at the time.
Yes, bandook is correct, the brass plate lists the unit over the unit weapon number (175). This is typical for the KNIL carbines. Also typical are the gas ports, that do not exist on the continental rifles/carbines. Apparently, one was concerned for high pressures due to the tropical temperatures. The hot and wet climate are probably the cause of the state of your carbine.
The round cartouche probably reads: Steyr and a W surrounded by the year 1901, if the stock matches the carbine.
The "W" stands for Wilhelmina, Queen of the Netherlands from 1898 till 1948.
Interestingly, ODIN ALEX VA stands for ODIN International, Alexandria, Virginia (hooray for the internet!), the import stamp of this firm that imported arms into the US from abroad. So this mark must be of a later date.
Thanks for the information.
I misread the captions of the photos by Nick in this post:
His example of a Gendarmerie carbine most resembles mine, with the narrow sling swivels. Do the Gendarmerie carbines have the wood on the magazine, because I don't think mine ever had the wood covering on the left magazine housing. It has a solid buttplate. There is no serial on the surface of the stock; might there be one inside?
I may have put some folks off by asking about value, but I'm really just curious. I bought it knowing it was something of a beater because I did not have an example of a Mannlicher turn-bolt in the collection, and have no clue whether it is a $50 or $500 rifle, now that I have a better idea what it is.
Thanks again.
After a little more research, I do think you're right: this is not a KNIL Cavalry carbine, but more likely a Gendarmerie (or in Dutch "Marechaussee") carbine. By the way: the turned-down bolt handle is also typical KNIL. The continental carbines had straight bolt handles. Here's a link to the Dutch Army Museum: http://www.collectie.legermuseum.nl/...n/i004821.html
As far as I can find, the Gendarmerie carbine did not have the wood cover on the magazine, it has the sling swivels like yours. The Cavalry carbine, DID have the wood cover and sling shivels are mounted on the left side of the carbine.
The Gendarmerie option also sheds some more light on the unit number: it could be the 5th Division, 2nd (II) Brigade, but I'm not an expert in this. The Marechaussee had 5 divisions in the East Indies, the Vth was based in Lhok Nga (westcoast of Bigger Atjeh (now Aceh, Indonesia). These divisions and brigades were much smaller in size than army units, in 1926 the total strength of the Marechaussee was 20 officers and 1220 men. Unlike the continental Gendarmerie (MP), their duties went beyond the normal military police duties. They were involved in anti-guerrilla warfare against the Atjeh-people and were feared for their violent and ruthless tactics. All-in-all not a pretty piece of Dutch history, but that's how it was in that colonial era...
Here's a pretty cool picture I found in this WIKI-link:
It's hard to estimate the value of your carbine in the US. Total production Gendarmerie carbines was approx. 28000, but a lot were lost or were transformed by the Indonesian Army, so I do not know how many survived. But the $ 50 you paid is a bargain, I guess, considering the interesting history.
Thanks, Dutchm95, for this link. The colonial activities of the Dutch in the East Indies are not well known in the US.
The unit markings as used by the KNIL on small arms between 1888-1942 are explained in the book "The Dutch Luger" from B. Martens and G. de Vries (1994) on the pages 168-188. The marking A.II.Bg. stands for 2e afdeling bergartillerie (2nd Section Mountain Artillery).
The booklet "The Dutch Mannlicher M.95 and the 6,5 x 53,5 R cartridge" (1995) describes all these rifles, carbines and cartridges as used by the Dutch armed forces between 1896 and 1942.
Both books are stille availebly.
Regards, Marck
Hello Warrior,
You have a sort of all purpose carbine of the KNIL. Others were made with different features for artillery, engineers, and cavalry. The Cavalry model features the wooden magazine cover and skeleton buttplate. While these carbines are very well made, there is little interest in the US because ammo is almost impossible to find unless the cases are made from .303 British and reloaded. Strictly a handloading proposition.
Odin was the importer who imported a large lot of these from Indonesia in the 1980's. Springfield Sporters was a main distributor for them. I would estimate its worth about 150 to 175 to a serious Dutch collector. As they were in use almost continually from 1896 to 1942, in a hot and humid climate, they show a lot of wear. Very interesting collectable from the era though.
I stand corrected, 5 - A.II Bg does stand for 5e Batterij 2e Afdeling Bergartillerie (5th Battery 2nd Section Mountain Artillery), I already said I wasn't an expert on unit numbers ;-\
The definitive answer to your carbine type can probably be found in De Vries and Martens' book "Nederlandse Vuurwapens, KNIL en Militaire Luchtvaart, 1897-1942", which - unfortunately - is still on my wannahave list. Perhaps another forum member has this and can check it.
The booklet "The Dutch Mannlicher M.95 and the 6,5 x 53,5 R cartridge" (1995), I do have, but doesn't go into enough detail, I'm afraid.
I believe the book "Nederlandse Vuurwapens, KNIL en Militaire Luchtvaart 1897-1942" from B. Martens and G. de Vries is to obtain from Boekenmarkt.nl or bol.com, language of this book is in Dutch. Description of the Mannlicher weapons is on the pages 47-83. A long shot will be to contact SAM Wapenmagazine, one off the authors is director of this Dutch weaponmagazine.
The reference to the Mannlicher booklet was made because this concerns all the armed forces (Army, Marine and KNIL) and the text is bi-langual, Dutch and English.
Thanks for all the interesting information. Like I said, I thought this was a standard Dutch carbine that had been chopped up, only to find that it is in original trim with a very interesting history. The photo from DutchM95 is great; one does not usually see a period shot of a somewhat obscure rifle. Believe it or not, I picked up about 50 rnds of 6.5 Dutch on clips in a batch of mixed ammo at an auction about 10 years ago. I need to dig it out so I can find out what it is. Unfortunately, the pitting below the wood on this rifle is bad enough I would be afraid to shoot it. When I got the rifle and stripped it down, I found that someone had tried to fill the pitting in with "Bondo" or something similar and it took me forever to remove it and get the rust stabilized.
Thanks again for the discussion. I'll move it out of the corner with the junk and onto a rack with the other carbines.
Talking; Check the bore diameter - I have a carbine that could be your carbine's twin (right down to "ODIN ALEX VA") that's set for .303. I'll see if I can root out some pictures for it - I paid 105.00 for mine if I recall correctly - no nifty unit marking on mine though.
This one's still in 6.5. I would imagine shooting one of these little rifles in 303 would get your attention.

I am facing a tough decision: picking between a Golf TDI and GTI. A "similarly" equipped TDI is $1100 less than GTI. Including the $1700 tax credit, it is close to $2800.
I know the trade-offs are personal and subjective, what would you do?
Your opinions are welcome.

1976 Cj5 **SOLD**
Yup, I am selling the old toy.
76 CJ5 with the 304 V8, T150 trans, Dana 20 T-case, Dana 30 front, AMC 20 rear. Pretty much stock. The only pictures of it I have now are:
(Obviously the red one in the forefront)
(the highlift on the hood doesn't come with the jeep)
It does have some body rust issues, but nothing that couldn't be repaired. Frame is good. The rust hole on the passenger fender has goteen bigger since these pictures. Also the front passenger tub corner (right behind that rusty fender) also has a hole now.
It has a tan full soft top that is in good shape with one seem stitching that has pulled apart a bit. It can be easily fixed. And the seats that are in it now are grey high back buckets that are in really good shape.
The only problem with this jeep is that it jumps out of 1st gear sometimes. I believe that it is a clutch issue. I think that the fingers on the pressure plate have worn out, bent, etc, and it doesn't dissengage all the way. You can slowly let out of the clutch and feel the stick slighty jump and then pull back down down into first. After that, there is no problem.
This is a really good running vehicle. I have had it to yogi's, silver lake, and a few have seen it in action as well. I hate to get rid of it, but I don't need 8 vehicles.
Any questions, please feel free to ask and I plan on getting some updated pictures when I cen get out there when it is light outside.
$1400 OBO - I have a used 2.5" lift for it as well that hasn't been put on. 4 springs and 4 shocks. If someone pays $1500, I will include the lift.

Apple Sued for Deceptive MacBook and MacBook Pro Advertising

Lawsuit claims LCD screens on Apple's current notebooks are not capable of millions of colors
Apple Inc. has been in and out of the courtroom a number of times
this year for patent infringements
product defects
mostly to defend its iPhone
. This week, Apple finds itself in the courtroom again, this time facing a class action lawsuit alleging the
LCD screens on its MacBook and MacBook Pro laptops are substandard
. The claim also alleges Apple advertised its screens as being superior, but knowingly shipped screens that did not meet its original claims.
The class action lawsuit points out the glossy screens Apple introduced with the launched of its MacBook last year. Apple advertised that the new glossy screens provided users with deeper blacks and whites that are more vibrant. However, many customers experienced graininess and sparkling effects common to dithering techniques, according to the lawsuit.
According to the complaint:
Many such dissatisfied purchasers were chastised by Apple agents and employees for being too picky about their assessments of the quality of the display. Other dissatisfied purchasers were told that they were imagining the complained about defects.
The complaint also points out that many of the disgruntled customers posted messages on Apple's own forums only later to have their posts moderated or completely removed by Apple forum administrators.
"It appears that Apple has engaged in substantial editing of the posts on the discussion forum," the lawsuit indicates.
The lawsuit alleges Apple uses dithering techniques to create an illusion of colors that don't actually exist. In fact, the lawsuit claims if a MacBook or MacBook Pro users installs Windows XP, they will notice superior image quality in areas such as gradients. The test seems to indicate Apple is using some sort of software at work in OS X.
"The displays are only capable of displaying the illusion of millions of colors through the use of a software technique referred to as 'dithering'," the lawsuit claims.
"Game reviewers fought each other to write the most glowing coverage possible for the powerhouse Sony, MS systems. Reviewers flipped coins to see who would review the Nintendo Wii. The losers got stuck with the job." -- Andy Marken

New York • Say "wild" and "New York City," and few might fill in these blanks: a flock of feral turkeys causing a flap in a city that defines urbanity.
Yet a population of roving turkeys on Staten Island has become a mess-making, traffic-stopping scourge to some residents, an impromptu natural attraction to others and a fraught project for government officials.
Since dozens of the turkeys were rounded up and killed this summer, the birds' future has become a topic as heated as a Thanksgiving meat thermometer.
"We don't want to kill them. We just want them to leave us alone," says Barbara Laing, who watched as at least 50 turkeys converged outside her house around sundown one recent evening with a chorus of honks — their own and those of drivers futilely trying to shoo them out of traffic.

I'm 35 years old. I did a correction of pectus excavatum 13 years ago by Ravitch method. The final result wasn't very good. I've a lower sternum slope but I got many irregularities in the chest. I've thought seriously about improving the appearance of my chest but I heard that silicone implants aren't a good solution, that alcamid is recommended only for smaller areas.
Recently I heard about porex implants. Could plastic surgery do something to make my chest almost normal? Thank you.

Henry VIII (play)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henry VIII is a play by William Shakespeare. It is a history play. Shakespeare's sources were Holinshed's Chronicles and The Book of Martyrs by John Foxe. The play was first acted between 1612 and 1613. It was probably first printed in 1623 in the First Folio.[1]


text: Martin - Unregistered August 23, 2010 4:36 PM This weekend could be a farce, with so little for the top five to race for. 6 points when there are 175 left to play for in the Showdown isn't worth injuring yourself for. Imagine if Michael Laverty moves over to give Seeley the points he needs to wrap up 6th place... I can't overstate the crass stupidity of the Chase system, which would not have made 2009 any closer and isn't needed to make 2010 close. 9 agree 0 disagree

1/4" or 1/2" cement board?
For my kitchen remodel, in preperation for laying 20" ceramic tiles; I fixed my squeeky floor planks which lay on joints (16" spread) and then sheeted T&G 3/4" plywood. I used 3" screws and Liquid Nails subfloor glue.
I have a couple very minor soft spots that my wife does not even notice. I am however concerned and contemplating 1/4" or 1/2" Hardibacker sheets. I know Hardibacker is not structural, but I am thinking 1/2" would be the better choice.
Should I use 1/2"?
Should I use roofing paper on the subfloor before I lay the first layer of thin set for the Hardibacker... or is that too anal?
Like you said, it really makes no difference. Use whichever one suits your needs (the adjacent floor heights, etc). No need for tar paper, just:
Thinset (very important)
Hardi (or whatever type concrete you're using)
(in order of use, obviously, not top to bottom)
Either thickness cement board you end up using, you want to consider a "ditra"-like membrane over it.
Interesting... I have never heard of the Ditra product but it looks promising. Thanks to both of you for the information.
If you go with a product like Ditra, it's instead of any CBU. No Hardi. Ditra is not only much easier to install, but is a better surface to install tiles to. It does cost more however.

- Bold engineering and cutting-edge science deliver the most advanced and innovative storm water solution.
- StormPROOF™ Advanced Treatment Systems are guaranteed to remove 90% of pollutants from storm water discharges.
- Patented technology can be indemnified against litigation, violation and penalties.
- Scalable, modular and affordable – the perfect fit for every industrial business with exceedances.
Storm Water Treatment: Strategies to Reduce Exceedances
The Necessary BMPs for the Job
Depending on how far above the Numeric Action Level (NAL) your sample results may be, advanced BMPs may be dictated to improve sample results. If your facility exceeds NALs by more than 30%-60%, you may need an Advanced BMP, such as StormPROOF™ Storm Water Treatment, which is guaranteed to reduce NAL Exceedances by as much as 90%.
Level 2 Requirements include mandatory Advanced BMPs. This means facilities will likely be required to implement Treatment, Containment or Sheltering BMPs. While Containment and Sheltering are not always practical or possible depending on space and industrial limitations, Treatment is always a viable solution. StormPROOF™ Storm Water Treatment Systems guarantee to lower sample results, returning your facility to Baseline.
If your facility has recently been designated as Level 1 Status due to an Annual Average or Instantaneous Maximum NAL exceedance during the recent storm water year, Storm Water Systems (SWS) has the solution.
By achieving four clean samples in a row, industrial companies can return to Baseline status and avoid the costly reporting and QISP oversight required by Level 1 or Level 2 Status. SWS specializes in assisting facilities like yours. Step one is to reduce pollutants by implementing a personalized Best Management Practices (BMP) Plan professionally engineered to move your facility out of Level 1 Status.
Our custom, individualized analysis of your site will reveal the BMPs needed to reduce exceedances and return to Baseline Status. Our Storm Water Consultants are experts in environmental compliance and will provide personal support, along with technical analysis, to ensure your facility has the resources to achieve storm water compliance.

A 12-Year-Old Hangs Himself, and His Family Says He Was Bullied
Students and parents said on Thursday that Joel Morales, 12, was bullied in his East Harlem neighborhood and at school before he hanged himself on Tuesday in his apartment. One mother, Sadia Hashmi, told The New York Times that she would often walk to school with her son and Joel, who went to school together. She recalled how he was sometimes depressed over how other children treated him, and she asked him why they did that.
"Sometimes he would say he doesn't know why," said Ms. Hashmi, who is an occupational therapist at the school, Public School 102. "Sometimes he would say because he was small. They would say really mean things.
And a former classmate, Destynee Lewis, 11, recalled that Joel was bullied for being short.
"The bullies are a group of boys — 12, 9, 10, 11 — all different ages," she said. "They told him he was ugly, and he'd tell the teacher, and the teacher would tell the parents" of the children who picked on Joel. "But it didn't help."
"People really picked on him, both inside and outside the school. I can't say it, what they said, they were bad words," Destynee said. "I felt angry and sad, because he was a nice kid and I'd stick up for him. They'd say, mind your business."
Members of Joel's family said he killed himself because he had been repeatedly picked on. On Thursday, a police spokesman said officers were investigating whether there had been any link between bullying and Joel's death, which comes on the heels of other suicides of young boys and girls around the country. Many states, including New York, have required schools to put into place antibullying curriculums and take action against students who harass others.
New York City spent almost $100 million last year on outside consultants who train teachers, but there's no real oversight over which providers are worth the money, according to an analysis by Schoolbook and the Hechinger Report.
On-the-job training for teachers, known as professional development, encompasses things like day-long seminars, coaching by in-school specialists and even yoga. But there's little reliable, independent research on what kind of training for teachers actually works.
"We know less than we should about professional development, particularly given the money that is invested in it," said Pamela Grossman, an education researcher at Stanford University who specializes in teacher training.
That means New York City principals have to figure out which kinds of training make a difference, because the Education Department says it's too difficult to centrally vet the hundreds of different vendors.
The married James Madison High School teacher accused of having a sexual relationship with a male student was arrested Thursday. The teacher, Erin Sayar, who teaches English, is accused of having sex with the boy at least eight times in the past school year, according to a report issued by Richard J. Condon, the special commissioner for investigation for the city's schools. If convicted, she could face up to four years in prison. On Wednesday, the family of the student filed a $10 million notice of claim against the city.
The Times also reports that a Queens computer teacher who was arrested in February for molesting two students was charged with groping three more students. The new charges against the teacher, Wilbert Cortez, 49, of Public School 174 in Rego Park, state that he inappropriately touched a 6-year-old, an 8-year-old and a 10-year-old, according to the office of the Queens district attorney, Richard A. Brown.
Also, SchoolBook has begun publishing a series of posts reporting on the results of a crowd-sourcing project about the rising cost of public school. Tell SchoolBook what else you want to know on this subject.

Around town today, Harlem Renaissance High School is holding what it calls its biggest EXPO video gallery event. Videos and music produced by students can be seen and heard from 4 to 6 p.m. at the transfer high school at 22 East 128th Street. The community is welcome.
Today at the American Museum of Natural History, the 15th Annual Young Naturalist Awards are being given to children in grades 7 through 12. The winners come from across the country and include Kalia Firester, a ninth grader at Hunter College High School. She determined that filters based on living plants effectively removed household pollutants from waste water.
Students of the Witt Seminar and DeWitt Clinton High School in the Bronx will host a celebration for their garden from 1 to 3 p.m. today. The event's promoters hope it will help raise awareness and support for gardens, green initiatives and issues of sustainability, food justice and public health in school communities throughout New York City and elsewhere. The garden received a donation of $5,000 from the Walrath Family Foundation that will be used to construct a fence that's expected to be completed today, setting the garden apart from the rest of the school.
Parents and students are invited to the 2012 World Science Festival, which is holding events on Saturday in Brooklyn Bridge Park and MetroTech Plaza, and Sunday in Washington Square Park.
Also on Saturday, the Fourth Annual Emoti-Con! Challenge provides an opportunity for middle- and high-school-aged youth to network with their peers and industry professionals while showcasing their projects and exploring opportunities for their future. The event will take place from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m. at Parsons The New School for Design.
