In Detroit, a Comeback for the Ages?

There's a slight chance that one of the most remarkable come-from-behind victories in political history could take place in Detroit next week. Sound like hyperbole? Well, allow me to explain.
Detroit Mayor Dave Bing won 74% of the vote in an all-candidate primary in August. His closest challenger, accountant and two-time losing candidate Tom Barrow (who once spent more than a year in prison due to a tax evasion conviction), took 11%. Bing and Barrow advanced to the November general election, which appeared to only be a formality, with Barrow playing the role of inconsequential gadfly.
Yet now people in Detroit are starting to wonder whether the accountant and two-time losing candidate has a chance -- as I said, a slight chance -- to win.
A respected Michigan polling firm, EPIC-MRA, released a survey last week that showed Bing leading just 47% to 26%. In other words, Barrow was turned a 53-point deficit into a 21-point deficit in less than three months.
Now, of course, a 21-point deficit a couple of weeks before the election isn't easy to make up. Still, there are several reasons to think that Barrow has a remote chance, if only a remote chance, to win.
Bing is under 50% in that poll. What's more, 51% of respondents say his performance as mayor is "only fair" or "poor."
If there's one place where you shouldn't be surprised to be surprised, it's Detroit. Four years ago, every poll said that Freman Hendrix was going to comfortably defeat mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. One poll from late October even showed Hendrix with a 20-point lead. Kilpatrick won by 6 points.
To add to the uncertainty, there's plenty of doubt as to how many voters are going to show up. This will be the fourth time Detroit has voted for mayor this year. The city has already held a special primary, a special general election (to replace Kilpatrick, who went to jail) and a regular primary. Bing's backers could be complacent.
Plus, Barrow has a message. He's playing the role of plucky underdog, but he's not running a gentle campaign. Barrow is calling Bing a rich, out-of-touch suburbanite. His supporters would probably call that populism. Bing's supporters might call it class warfare. Barrow even called Bing a Republican.
That message could resonate because of the steps Bing has taken in his short time as mayor. Bing's popularity has fallen because, with Detroit in fiscal crisis, he's cut back on bus routes and threatened to reduce the salaries of city workers. Public employee unions are backing Barrow.
Any election like this one invariably is compared to David and Goliath. And, the Detroit News has called Bing a "fundraising Goliath." Then again, Bing made it to the N.B.A. Hall of Fame as a shooting guard, not a center. More to the point, he's still something close to a political neophyte. Plus, he leads a city that faces such severe troubles that no politician can ever be completely safe.
Nor is Barrow exactly like the Biblical David. He placed respectably in the 1985 and 1989 mayoral elections. In the 1989 race he even outpaced U.S. Rep. John Conyers in the primary before losing to Coleman Young, the incumbent, in the general election.
On the other hand, Barrow's campaign is so underfunded that he doesn't have a single paid staff member. David, at least, could afford a slingshot.

Click here to see Interactive Kosher Kitchen!
"Kosher: Sanctifying the Ordinary" is a lively CD-ROM explaining Jewish dietary laws. A joint project of the United Synagogue of Conservative Judaism and the Rabbinical Assembly, this unique and comprehensive resource is designed for both Jewish professionals and laypeople of all ages and levels of religious knowledge.
Rabbi Robert Abramson, past director of United Synagogue's education department and the CD's project advisor and editor, says, "Jews seeking to begin keeping kosher will find specific step-by-step guidance to simplify and organize what may at first seem a daunting task, while rabbis and laypeople will find scholarly material on the content, traditional sources and rationales for kashrut." The CD also includes a special interactive section for children, which provides age-appropriate information, as well as family activities that explore the experience of keeping kosher.
The project was made possible by a grant from the Melvin N. and Eunice A. Miller Foundation of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Miller Foundation supports projects that help families gain access their cultural heritage and that contribute to family functioning and community cohesiveness. Among other interests, it actively promotes kashrut and works to develop kashrut policy with Jewish organizations. Millers' Guide to Practices in Communal Agencies and Organizations is included in the CD.
According to Rabbi Jerome Epstein, United Synagogue's executive vice president emeritus, "Kashrut is a pillar of Jewish life. Out of the very ordinary act of eating, kashrut enables us to sanctify our relationship to God and to the Jewish community past, present and future."
Judy Yudof, who was United Synagogue's international president when the CD first was offered, says, "The CD is user friendly and provides several interactive and fun features for adults and children including a kitchen with pop-up text at every click of the mouse. This CD will be a popular and sought-after resource for individuals, synagogue schools, congregational adult education programs, and modern Jewish libraries."
The United Synagogue/Rabbinical Assembly Joint Committee included Rabbi Azriel Fellner, Judith Fellner, Allan Wegman and Walter Cohen. Mr. Cohen, of Red River Films, was executive producer of the project. The material for the CD-ROM was synthesized and developed by Rabbi Steven Morgen.
The CD is both IBM and Macintosh compatible. It is available from the United Synagogue Book Service for $6.95 plus shipping (a volume discount is available for orders of more than 15 copies). Click here to order, call 800-594-5617, fax 212-253-5422, or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.

Here is the beginning of a pipe burst job on a shared 6" side sewer. This is just the excavation stage more to follow tomorrow. The shared line ran real close to the fence, the problem was the homeowner wanted the trees saved at all costs. We used an excavator in the backyard because instead of 1 small pit (2x3) we needed to tie in the neighbor as well so we made a traditional hole to expose both connections. This is the shallow hole as it is at 7 foot. But we would have loved to do a pull on this with the Tric Pipe burster but in the front yard there was another tie in so we used the vacuum excavator to make two 7' 5" holes one to tie in the other line and one to do the actual pull with the burster. The holes came out ok pretty clean and 3 x4 and 3x3. Notice in one picture the abs pipe on a shovel to get the depth we needed to break up the soil so it could be sucked out. We did not use the pressure washer for the most part because that makes slurry and has to be dumped in a special location over 20 miles away. So we did it dry so we could re use the soil for the backfill. Anyway here are some pics Part 2 tomorrow of the bursting. So this is 2 neat technologies being used, Vacuum excavation and pipe bursting. Edited also notice on the shovel picture the pipe we found that wasn't located by the utility companies I still don't know what it does but the vacuum didn't hurt it when we found it.
No announcement yet.

A 40 Dollar Light Bulb? Say What?
No way, Jose! That's what I say to the 40 dollar light bulb. I can think of alot better ways to spend my cash, can't you? But wait! Break out the calculator. You may be spending that and more right now!
Let's put a little light on this subject. I was reading from a great website–Greenbiz.com. (Hey, just trying to do my part here.) They talk about a
"Philips LED replacement for 60-watt incandescent bulb with a list price of $39.97 at Home Depot"
Now that's pretty steep. I think I'd be less shocked if I put my finger in a light socket than having to dig deep for that!
But then they break it down mathematically:
"A conventional 60-watt bulb lasts about 1,000 hours, uses 60 watts of electricity (duh) and costs $180 to run for 25,000 hours.
The LED equivalent lasts 25,000 hours (nearly three years if you left it on 24/7), uses 12.5 watts and costs $37.50 to run for 25,000 hours."
I'm going to leave this one open ended. Are you convinced? Would you buy this bulb on the basis of these claims? Would love to see the comments on this one!!
Well–end of blogs for today. Time for a nap. Lights out!

I went one step more I put a decibel meter in my trucks and in my Benz and Jag and the readings were within 4 db's from the Escalade's to the Benz and Jag. Now my 2011 is a different story, that was 11 db's higher than my other two 2012 Escalade's :eek: But the 2007 I just picked up is by far the worst, that was 18 db's higher than the 2012's. Way to jump right on the problem Cadillac, NOT. I am thinking my 11' has to go, I have way too many with this 07', but that maybe sold. ;)

Watch Cage Warriors 43 LIVE Tonight From 7pm UK Time
The Cage Warriors Fighting Championship returns to the HMV Forum in London later tonight with a stacked 13 bout fight card which will be shown LIVE around the world on CageWarriors.com, www.mmajunkie.com, Facebook and Television.
Fans can watch the action from 7pm UK Time (2pm. ET / 11am. PT in the United States). Headlining the event is the eleventh ranked UK Middleweight Jack "The Stone" Mason (15-7-0) as he takes on the tenth ranked European Middleweight Norman Paraisy (9-1-1-1nc). Mason is no stranger to UK fans having plied his trade on the UK professional circuit since 2005 and is known for being a tough all-round fighter. With 13 of his 15 career wins inside the distance, the Englishman knows how to entertain and will look to add another stoppage win to his record after going the distance last time out against Allan Love at CWFC 41 in April.
Whilst Paraisy travels to London looking to continue his five bout unbeaten streak which he has built since his exit from the "Ultimate Fighter" season 11 show in 2010. Unlike his opponent, Paraisy has fought around the world and last time out he defeated the former WEC Champion Paulo Filho in Brazil. He will look to continue his unbeaten streak on these shores when he fights Mason in front of a live television and internet audience.
The night's co-main sees the undefeated Irishman Joseph Duffy (9-0-0) take on his fellow Countryman Francis Heagney (9-4-0) in a Lightweight clash. Duffy makes his fourth appearance on Cage Warriors since returning from his brief stint on the "Ultimate Fighter" season 12 show last year. With all nine wins coming inside the first round against the likes of Norman Parke (14-2), Conor McGregor (8-2) and Oriol Gaset (11-7), the 23 year old Irishman has rightly earned a reputation for being one of Europe's best young prospects. Whilst Heagney comes into this bout with 3 wins in his last 4 fights and holds wins over the likes of the TUF 8 veteran Wes Murch, Brad Wheeler and the current UCMMA Champion Tim Radcliffe. At home both standing and on the floor; Heagney poses a formidable test for the unbeaten 23 year old, when they meet later tonight.
Also on the CWFC 43 main card is the long awaited and much talked about re-match between bitter rivals Brad Wheeler (5-5-0) and Ian "The Whirlwind" Entwistle (4-0-0). Both men first met at CWFC 41 when Wheeler was disqualified midway through round 1 for illegal shots to the back of Entwistle's head. Now after nearly 3 months of internet tirades and trash talk, they meet again in the CWFC cage, with both men promising to walk away with a clear victory.
Other action sees Andreas "Big Daddy" Kraniotakes (10-4-0) and Dave "The Iron Giant" Keeley (5-2-0) meet in a Heavyweight bout. Both men were victorious last month at CWFC Fight Night 1 in Amman, Jordan. As Kraniotakes stopped the top 10 UK ranked prospect Jay "Mean Streak" Mortimore in the main event. Whilst Keeley defeated the American Joel Wyatt (9-5) in his bout with a standing elbow shot. Kraniotakes will be looking to draw from his big fight experience as he attempts to negate his 6'10'' opponent's height and reach advantage.
Whilst starting the main card is a Middleweight match-up between the Team Lionheart fighter Craig White (5-2-0) and Brett Sizeland (3-1-0) of the MMA Clinic. Both men have fought previously on CWFC events with with mixed results. As Sizeland lost back in February by TKO against Tony Machado. Whilst Craig White started his CWFC career with a win over Dan Edwards by Triangle Choke at CWFC 41 before succumbing to a North-South Choke at the hands of Jake Hecht at CWFC 42 in May.
Whilst the main featured bouts are supported by some solid prelim match-ups. As the "Prospect Killer" Artem Lobov (2-1-0) looks to claim his third straight win when he faces Steve O'Keeffe (3-1-0) in Featherweight action. Whilst the four time CWFC veteran Adam Edwards (3-2-0) drops down a weight class to meet Ben "The Spider" Crook (7-6-0) in a Bantamweight bout. The experienced Frenchman Olivier Pastor (11-7-0-1nc) also features on the undercard against late replacement Niko Gjoka (5-5-0) who jumps up two weight divisions on late notice to make his CWFC debut. Whilst Danny Roberts (2-0-0) and David Howell (2-0-0) put their unbeaten records on the line when they start the pro card in a welterweight match-up.

Lower Bound on Parameters in NonlinearFit, Mathematica 5.2
Hello, I am trying to fit a hyperbola to data sets using
NonlinearFit. For many data sets, it's working perfectly, but for
others it chooses the "wrong" hyperbola. I believe if I could put a
lower bound on one of my parameters, my problem would be fixed.
(Seeding with different values hasn't quite fixed the problem.) Is
there a way to place a lower bound on a parameter in Mathematica 5.2?
Thanks so much!

God is a rather busy individual or God or whatever designation one seeks to bestow on the creating force of our universe. George Zimmerman is a man who became involved in a neighborhood watch group and a few months ago became engaged in a fight with a young black boy named Trayvon Martin. The end result is that George shot to death the boy. Since that moment, George has become hailed as a hero by right wing pundits, and defamed as a villain by defenders of human rights,
George gave an interview to clear up the conflict between Trayvon and himself. Thank God George was finally able to clear up this complex issue. According to George it was "God's plan" for him to kill the boy. In the sixties we blamed all problems on hippies, and thank God today we blame droughts, tax increases, or murder on the Big Guy up in the sky. After all, if you have a universe to monitor isn't it logical that you will zoom over to planet Earth and get George to kill a boy??

Get Out's Ending & Message Explained
- By
- 40 Comments
Warning: Major SPOILERS for Get Out ahead
As one half of the groundbreaking comedy duo Key & Peele, Jordan Peele has emerged as one of America's foremost comedy voices on the subject of race issues in the popular culture. But while his new horror-thriller Get Out indeed casts a dark satirical eye on many of those same issues, this time he's not joking around. The film frames the familiar anxieties of modern black/white intercultural awkwardness as a potential mask for something much more sinister, and the result is a suspenseful, genuinely scary film that would almost certainly still be effective with some other topical reference point at its center but still cuts extra deep because of the one it has.
It also plays fair. Despite the ultimate reveal of what's been going on taking Get Out in an unexpected, genre-bending direction, all of the teases, misdirections and hidden-in-plain-sight clues fit together logically as the answers to a satisfying mystery story. Even still, if you've just come back from the film nursing any lingering questions about what it was all supposed to mean, here's the place to go back over everything.

- Get Out's Reveal Explained
- What Get Out's Ending Means
In the film's "cold open," a yet-unnamed Black man (Lakeith Stanfield) who has become lost in an eerily quiet upscale suburban neighborhood finds himself being followed by an anonymous car in a scenario clearly meant to evoke memories of recent vigilante shooting incidents like the shooting of Trayvon Martin. When he stops to confront his pursuer, however, he finds himself instead confronting a strange figure wearing a medieval-style iron helmet who puts him into a headlock, renders him unconscious and stuffs him into the trunk.
The main storyline, unfolding immediately thereafter, follows aspiring photographer Chris (Daniel Kaluuya) as he undertakes a trip with his girlfriend of five months, Rose Armitage (Allison Williams), to spend the weekend with her well-to-do parents – whom Chris will be meeting for the first time. This is a prospect that's making him nervous because Rose has not informed them that he's Black, which she assures him will not be an issue, but he's increasingly certain will not be the case. While en route their car strikes a deer on the road, drawing the attentions of a police officer whom Rose upbraids for racially profiling Chris.
As promised, Rose's parents (Catherine Keener and Bradley Whitford) are a pair of properly-tolerant liberals perfectly happy for their daughter to be dating a Black man – in fact, they're a little too happy. They immediately shower Chis with earnest stories about how the family's late patriarch was a marathon runner who qualified second behind Jesse Owens for the U.S. Olympic team, how they desperately wish they could've voted for Barack Obama a third time and even the twinge of shame they feel at being rich white people with a pair of Black servants (handyman Walter and housekeeper Georgina). It's all just a bit… "much," and that's before Chris meets Caleb Landry Jones as Rose's aggressive lacrosse-playing younger brother, who muses about how Chris' "genetic makeup" would make him a great mixed martial-arts fighter, and who likes to put people in headlocks (uh-oh…)
Things only get weirder from there: Rose's mom is a hypnotherapist who's a little too eager to help cure Chris of his smoking habit through an unsettling procedure that involves sending his consciousness into an out-of-body state she calls "the sunken place." He can't turn to Walter and Georgina for sympathy – they're strangely detached, alternately seeming to be in a trance or prone to odd behaviors: She likes to stare at her own reflection, he runs at top speed around the house (marathon-style) for exercise in the middle of the night. They both also talk and behave "differently," as though they're much older and more compliant than they should be given their relative ages in 2017; as Chris puts it while venting over the phone to his friend Rod (Lil Rel Howery), "It feels like they missed the revolution."
When a group of the Armitage's other wealthy friends show up for a garden party, they also all behave in just-inappropriate-enough ways; over-complimenting Chris's physique, asking about the "advantages" of African-American heritage and gushing about their admiration for Black celebrities like Tiger Woods. While Chris and Rose are out for a walk, we glimpse the partygoers playing a game of "bingo" that slowly reveals itself to be a kind of auction where they seem to be placing bids on Chris – which would be unnerving enough without Rod having already theorized that Rose's mother is hypnotizing Black people to become sex-slaves (or, rather, that Chris has wandered into "Some serious Eyes Wide Shut s–t!")
Next Page: Get Out's Reveal Explained
While at the party, Chris meets and tries to start up a conversation with the one Black guest besides himself – the husband of a (much older) white woman. The audience is meant to already recognize him as Lakeith Stanfield's character from the opening, now acting and dressing (there's no other way to put it) like an old white man; but Chris thinks he recognizes him too: As a friend from he and Rod's old neighborhood. When he tries to sneak a photo to send to Rod, the camera-flash triggers a kind of psychological breakdown in the man, and he starts shoving Chris and telling him to "Get out!"
Sure enough, Rod is able to identify the photo as their old acquaintance, but there's a problem: He's supposedly a "missing person" (Rod's attempts to convince the police of his theories are… less successful). Having now discovered a hidden box containing "selfies" of Rose posing with dozen other young Black men (including "Walter" and one woman – "Georgina") and accepting that he is indeed in real danger, Chris tries to flee… but it's too late. Mrs. Armitage's hypnosis has rendered him incapable of resisting, and he's been "selected" for a sinister experiment the only escape from which is a desperate, blood-soaked gambit involving mad science, illegal surgery, brutal beatdowns and a hunting rifle.
As revealed by a television broadcast shown to Chris after he's hypnotized for the final time after his initial escape-attempt, the deeper backstory is that the Armitage Family and their friends are members of a cult-like group called The Order of The Coagula, who had sought (under the leadership of Rose's mad scientist grandfather – the one who placed second to Jesse Owens) the secret of extended-life through brain-transplantation.
Rose's parents (accomplished mad scientists in their own right) had managed to realize that the Coagula dream through a combination of his surgical skills and her hypnotism. As it turns out, the transplantation will only stick if the original consciousness of the "patient" remains in the original system i.e. regressed but "alive" in the hypnosis-induced Sunken Place. Rose and her brother are part of the operation as "wranglers" who procure Black people to be auctioned-off as replacement-bodies by the Order – him via abduction by the metal-masked stalker, and her by seducing Black men (and possibly also "Georgina" – it's unclear whether their photo indicates a friendship or more) and luring them to her parents.
Speaking of Walter and Georgina, they were only pretending to be the Armitage's live-in help as part of the ruse to trap Chris. They're actually Rose's Grandma and Grandpa inhabiting their "new" young, Black bodies – hence "Walter" (who we're told "almost got over" placing behind Jesse Owens) being so fond of showing off his running skills now that he's got a… well, a more Jesse-esque body of his own. Likewise, the disturbed man at the party was "really" the original husband of the older woman. The flash from Chris' camera, however, is evidently able to scramble the signal and momentarily release the mind's original consciousness from The Sunken Place, which he ultimately uses to his advantage in order to escape. He almost blows it by stopping to rescue an injured Georgina (not realizing what she really is) because she reminds him of his mother – memories of whom Rose's mom had exploited as an "in" for her hypnosis.
At the very least, he didn't die (or get hypnotized out of existence) at the Armitages' as was planned – though it's not clear whether or not anyone is going to believe his story with Rose's family killed, their house (and thus much of the evidence) on fire, and Rose herself left near-death in the middle of the street. When Rod pulls up in what we first assume is a police car (it's actually a vehicle from his TSA job at the airport), it's mainly meant as a final "gotcha" at the expense of audience expectations i.e. the cops showing up would be a "good" sign in any horror film but this one. But it's also a reminder that the real cops didn't believe Rod when he went to them for help.
It's also true that the extent of the conspiracy is unknown. We meet three post-transplantation victims (not including Chris) but it's unknowable how many times this has been done before. Rose's cache of photographs suggests almost a dozen in total from her "wrangling" alone, and who knows how many more have been procured by the brother or if they were even the only ones with that particular assignment. Chris certainly wasn't meant to be the last – prior to his big escape scene, we see Rose up in her bedroom Googling "Top NCAA Prospects," presumably searching for her next target… and the audience never officially sees her die.
Next Page: What Get Out's Ending Means
This is where Get Out hits on "the message" and thus also the twist within its twist: The Order aren't traditional racists – or, at least, not the type of racists Hollywood is traditionally more comfortable calling out and posturing against. They aren't neo-Nazis, Klansmen or White Nationalists. There are no white hoods, Confederate flags, swastikas or even a "Make America Great Again" cap anywhere to be found. These are "good" White People: proud, well-off and self-satisfied "Liberals" who are very likely being completely sincere about their Obama votes, their love of Black celebrities and their appreciation for (and desire to "connect" with) Black culture.
But that's precisely the issue. Peele's film is using a well-worn horror movie narrative (specifically, the narrative of The Stepford Wives – a paranoid 1970s chiller in which a woman discovers that the men of her suspiciously-perfect small town are replacing their "difficult" feminist wives with obedient, submissive 1950s-style robot duplicates) in order to needle a very specific subset of White racism: "Nice" Liberals who are insistent of their non-racism because they admire an abstract ideal of Blackness while not actually engaging or regularly encountering any actual Black people.
The Armitages and their friends admire Black culture, Black stars, the Black ex-President – pretty much anyone Black they know from television or the movies. Not only don't they mind their children dating Black people, they'd be proud to be married to a Black spouse themselves! After all, like they keep telling Chris at the party: being Black is "fashionable" now, especially since Black people are innately "cool" and naturally more athletically gifted – opinions they probably see as not only being not racist but the exact opposite thereof. The guy who "bought" Chris' body quite literally "doesn't see race" – he's blind, and desires what he's been told is Chris' excellent eye for photography. They're so progressively in love with "Blackness" that they'd like nothing better than to be Black themselves – they just don't happen to see actual, individual Black people as "human" enough to have any moral compunctions about enslaving their minds and hijacking their bodies in order to increase their "totally not racist"-ness.
As social commentary goes, that's some pretty tough, scathing stuff; all-but certain to provoke maximum discomfort in "good liberal" white audiences who may have turned up to cheer for the hero putting the beatdown on the kind of "evil redneck caveman" racist Hollywood more often deploys as a "safe" vision of bigotry and instead see more of themselves in Get Out's villains than they'd care to grapple with. But horror movies with a message falter when they aren't willing to play for keeps, and Get Out is aiming to send its audience home with something to think about beyond the big scares – though whether it actually connects will be up for each individual viewer to decide.
Get Out, written and directed by Jordan Peele, is now in theaters.

July 30, 2004 the Mets lost to the 1st place Braves in Atlanta by the score of 3-1, dropping them back to seven games behind in fourth place with a record of 49-53. The team responded by trading their top prospect Scott Kazmir for then Rays ace Victor Zambrano. Kazmir is now out of baseball and couldn't even get an invite from his old team (Mets) after an audition but that still doesn't make the trade a sound decision. Zambrano was just holding the spot on a bad team as the farm developed and once it did they became a perennial post season team, Kazmir as a top lefty prospect should have garnered more then that if he was to be traded.
The back story was that after several bad years the Mets were finally enjoying some decent attendance and they were desperate to maintain the revenue flow. Of course, there was spin like the team over achieved and needed to be rewarded (sound familiar), parity in the division gave them a true chance and Mike Piazza deserved one more chance.
It's true that the team was over achieving and within reach of a wild card spot and therefore, should have been rewarded with a trade but a shoot for the stars type of move was ill advised. It's even understandable from a business point of view to want to keep attendance up but again that should have equated to a few marginal moves.
Just like this year's team, the roster was flawed and any chance of making the playoff's would mean that everything broke right for them. Being buyers was fine but not at the expense of the future or at a cost that would have long term effects.
This year seems to be in a similar position to the 2004, they are currently in contention and after several bad years it would be nice to see them as buyers. Of course, the organization wants to see the strong attendance continue but they are a flawed roster and those types of teams tend to peter out in the second half.
A trade for guys like Ramon Hernandez or Huston Street, I would more then welcome but I get nervous when I hear guys like Carlos Quentin and Justin Upton are available. Not that I wouldn't like having either on the team but what they would cost concerns me and it's not like they make us a lock for the playoff's. This isn't a team that needs just one piece to be a lock for the World Series, even with one more piece they need things to break right which would make a big move resemble 2004...

After serving eight years in the U.S. Navy, Danielle McCray wanted to start her own business as both a way to give back to her community of Florence, South Carolina, and to help secure a positive future for her son.
"When I got out of the Navy," she remembers, "I was working for the Postal Service and then I got laid off. I said, you know what, I'm going to start a business." The result of this epiphany was a small residential and commercial cleaning business that she runs today with two additional cleaning professionals on staff.
"We started The Cleaning Bouquet in December of 2011," McCray reveals. And almost immediately, the small business developed a big heart for those in need.
"We partnered with 'Cleaning for a Reason,' and that was the most awesome thing that I could have done," the military veteran explains.
The organization helps to provide women undergoing cancer treatment with free house cleanings.
"Being able to help these ladies is so awesome," she says. "And I do it out of the kindness of my heart. I still have to pay my employees, but it's OK."
In light of how committed Danielle McCray is to helping her community, the small business owner recently entered Intuit's Small Business Big Wishes campaign as one additional avenue to potentially help her clients and employees even further.
"Being granted $5,000 would enable us to purchase completely-sealed, true HEPA-filtered vacuum cleaners and assist in our transition to becoming a 'green' company," McCray explained in her wish entry. "While undergoing chemo, these patients are sensitive to smells, and non-hazardous products are ideal. A clean house should be a healthy house… my employees will thank me in the long run as well."
This week, Intuit reached out to the kind-hearted small business owner to announce that her wish will be granted.
"Oh my goodness," McCray responded, overwhelmed by emotion upon learning the good news. "Thank you so much!"
"A lot of our clients are busy families, elderly people, and cancer patients that we help out," she says. "Being able to give back" is what it's all about. And McCray plans to give back more than ever in 2013 as The Cleaning Bouquet goes green thanks to another granted wish from Intuit!
Big Wishes Come True for Small Businesses
During the month of December, Intuit granted 15 big wishes to 15 deserving small businesses. Although the Small Business Big Wishes campaign has come to an end, check back soon for Intuit's next program and perhaps your small business dream will become a reality in 2013.

Police: One dead in 2nd plant blast
DONALDSONVILLE, La. (AP) — A second blast in two days killed a worker at a south Louisiana chemical plant, just miles from the site where two workers were killed a day earlier.
The latest explosion also injured seven people, some severely, State Police Trooper Jared Sandifer said late Friday.
Sandifer said the injured were taken to area hospitals following Friday evening's explosion at a CF Industries facility in Donaldsonville. Police identified the deceased worker as Ronald "Rocky" Morris, 55, of Belle Rose, La.
Sandifer said the explosion didn't pose a threat to the area surrounding the plant. He said nitrogen was being offloaded by hose from an 18-wheeler and pressurizing a metallic "vessel" when the pressure built and caused the explosion.

A neat geometrical dangling earring design. With a pair of rare, one of a kind, textured green yellow baroque star-shaped pearls anchored to a pair of rhodium gold plated square shaped back stoppers. Square shaped rhodium plated earring posts. These pearls reflect an iridescent sheen and are simply desirable.
Baroque pearls are cultured freshwater pearls with an irregular non-spherical shape. Every piece is one of a kind.
All shiny rhodium, gold plating and rose gold plating materials used in this design went through secondary coating. They are stronger against humidity. For a lasting shine, after taking off your jewelry, clean it with a dry soft cloth, or polishing cloth, before putting it back into an airtight container or bag.
*Note: Ade.g will not be able to provide you with the exact form and texture of the pearls shown here as each pearl is one of a kind. Ade.g will, however, find you a matching pair that suits this earring design.

Fifty two "Intruder" sorties were flown against railway targets and aerodromes in enemy-occupied territory; two aircraft are missing.
From the Home Security Situation Report for the week, as reported to the British War Cabinet, see TNA CAB 66/28/22
The RAF were now mounting numerous small raids throughout occupied Europe to keep the air defences on a state of constant alert. Sometimes these were mounted as diversions to large scale raids by the main Bomber Command force. On other occasions single aircraft were despatched simply to set off the air raid sirens and disturb the sleep of the residents and munitions workers. Berlin was a particular target for this purpose.
The new De Havilland Mosquito was ideally suited to these raids, its speed usually enabled it to evade enemy fighters. Yet there were other hazards when it operated on low level raids. Flight Lieutenants Tommy Broom and E. A. Costello-Brown were one of three crews from 105 Squadron that mounted an attack on 25th August 1942:
We took off from Horsham St Faith at 7.30 p.m. and went in formation to the Dutch Island at the mouth of the Scheldt where we split up and proceeded individually. Not long after crossing the coast and the islands, we were very low and brushed the tops of the trees.
A few minutes later after crossing another small wood, an electricity pylon suddenly loomed in front of us. We pulled up but the starboard engine struck the pylon at its top. Immediately the engine and the propeller stopped. The action of hitting the pylon jammed the controls.
We were eighty feet up and there was nothing we could do. We were doing about 250 mph and just had to wait until we hit the ground. I said to Costello-Bowen, 'Well this is it'.
It's a funny thing, but neither of us was worried and we were very calm, although death stared us in the face. We lost height steadily and crossed a couple of fields. Then the pinewoods loomed up in front. We were bound to crash into them – this was about half a minute after hitting the pylon.
Just before we hit I instinctively released my safety harness; why I don't know. Then we hit and everything went black; no physical pain, just darkness and I felt myself rolling over and over like a ball. I must have been unconscious for a time. [They had crashed in Paaltjesdreef Wood at Westmalle in the Belgian hamlet of Blauwhoeve].
When I awoke I was covered in branches and bits of aeroplane and there was a strong smell of petrol. I was amazed I had no injuries; not even a scratch. I must have been flung out of the top of the cockpit as I was right in the front with the nose of the aircraft. It was amazing that the aircraft did not catch fire or the bombs explode. The nose of the aircraft must have passed between two trees. How lucky can you be?
My next thought was Costello-Bowen. Although it was nearly dark, I found him in some wreckage about twenty yards away. He was unconscious and looked in poor shape. The rudder pedals had torn off both his shoes. After talking and patting his face for a few moments, he finally awoke. I lifted him up and half carried him about 400 yards away, where we both sat down. He gradually recovered and we were soon talking. We both felt very despondent at the thought of being made prisoners of war.
See Martin Bowman: The Men Who Flew the Mosquito which has the remarkable story of how they made it back to Gibraltar on 21st September 1942, after crossing crossing France and Spain with one of the 'escape lines' run by the Belgian (see comments below) and French Resistance.

Love the Blendtec!
By Dlee
from Regina
Its not very often i write review about a product but i am so impressed with Blendec which really made me want to give a review. I can't say enough good things about this product.It is one of the best purchases i ever made and worth every penny.I use it every single day to make my smoothies and they always come out perfect.There is nothing this blender can't do and as a bonus it is a really nice looking blender.I had been wanting to get myself a good blender for awhile now and read up a lot on all the different blenders out there including alll the high end ones and the reviews everywhere i went were super high on the blendtec.If you are on the fence because of the price don't be if there is one thing you dont want to skimp on its a blender..you really need to invest in a good quality high end blender that can perform and last.And this one is it and it is still more reasonably priced then the other high blender that is on the market yet it peforms just as well if not better and its sleaker and better looking too plus it fits on your counter better.I am so glad i decided to go with the blendtec over the other.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

LOVE my Blendtec
By love a bargin
from Vancouver Island
I purchased my blendtec when it was a blockbuster and I just love it. I have trouble with my hands so I really like the fact that I do not have to push anything down with a tamper or stand at the machine to shut it off. I make my own flours, soups and nut butters now as well as healthy smoothies and homemade ice-cream. It fits nicely on my counter and get used about 3 times a day. I am waiting for the twister jar to arrive now:) ps...gave my other well know blender away for this upgrade!!

So Far So Awsome
By TR

Has done everything I wanted every day I use it. Looks good, works good. Industrial expectations mean I need to trust it to do the job. Time will tell. 282 blends and counting. Fun to use too.

Great Machine makes life better.
By Loyal shopper.

I love this machine, use it every day. I like the fact it is so simple to clean. It takes up little space in my small kitchen and makes cooking so much easier and healthy.

Love the Blendtec
By Cindy
from Grande Prairie,Alberta
I only gave mine a 3 star cause it has already burnt out, it has only 37 blends on it and mostly Smoothies with frozen fruit and it already has to go out for repair and a new jar, but the customer service at Blendtec was wonderful. So we will see how things go after it goes out, kind of disappointed as it does cost a lot more than most blenders. Wish me luck.

The Bucs could have more problems protecting QB Chris Simms.
Starting right tackle Kenyatta Walker, arguably the team's best blocker, suffered a right knee sprain in the Bucs' 28-0 loss at New England.
Walker was scheduled to have an MRI exam Sunday, but his status is unknown for Tampa Bay's game against the Atlanta Falcons on Christmas Eve.
Meanwhile, Simms emerged from the melee with only a sore body and sprained thumb on his left hand - his throwing hand.
"I think he's okay," Bucs coach Jon Gruden said. "He was able to throw the ball. I'm sure he's a bit sore today. He took a lot of hits yesterday. We think he'll be ready to go for this game."
Gruden said Simms took too many hits against the Patriots, who held the Bucs to a season-low 138 total yards in handing Tampa Bay its first shutout loss since 1999.
The defeat dropped the Bucs (9-5) one game behind NFC South leader Carolina (10-4), which beat New Orleans 24-10 Sunday.
"It can make a veteran quarterback (skittish)," Gruden said of watching Simms under siege. "It can make me skittish on the sideline. He took too many hits. Obviously, we got into the kind of game we didn't want to get into. Unfortunately, we were unable to pass protect better yesterday.
"Yes, they were surprising. They didn't go real deep in their playbook to create any awkward or new blitzes that we haven't seen. We just got whipped in some particular instances. We paid for that yesterday. We're disappointed. We think we can do much better than that, but you don't get do-overs in this business. Hopefully, we can show some resolve and come back much better next week."
It wasn't just protecting Simms where the offensive line failed miserably Saturday. Rookie Cadillac Williams was held to 23 yards on 14 carries.
"I think the longest run we had yesterday was a 4-yard gain," Gruden said. "That's not going to help you really get a lot sustained. We got destroyed on a third-and-1 play in the first half, a play that is a trademark play for us. We didn't knock people off the ball yesterday like we had in previous weeks. It's a credit to New England and certainly something that we've got to raise our hand and say, "Hey, we didn't do a good enough job."
If Walker is unable to play this week, he would be replaced by veteran Todd Steussie. Continuity is one thing the Bucs have had going for them this season. The Bucs have started the same five offensive linemen every game this year.
Walker said he was uncertain why the Bucs' offense took a step backward Saturday.
"I don't know until I look at the film," Walker said following Saturday's game. "I definitely cannot talk about the running backs and what went on. I can say if you get in third-and-long with a team like that, that likes to confuse you and blitz a lot, you just can't do that."
Because of the pressure on Simms, the Bucs were unable to take many shots in the passing game down the field.
"We planned to," quarterback Chris Simms said. "They played some real soft zone coverage. That makes it tough to throw the ball downfield. And they rushed the passer pretty good, too. That makes it tough to sit in the pocket and let something develop down the field."
Simms went 21-of-34 passing for 155 yards and fumbled twice, losing one that set up a Patriots touchdown. He also continued to be victimized by dropped passes.
"We have dropped some passes," Gruden said. "Not only Joey (Galloway), we've dropped several passes the last five or six games. I think we've had 13 or 14 drops. When you attempt a forward pass, there's only one good thing that can happen, and that's a completion. Sacks, incomplete passes and interceptions are negatives. We've got to do a much better job as a football team, as an offensive football team, catching the ball. I think all of our skill people respect that and understand that."
--The Bucs are in pretty good shape for the playoffs. In fact, wins over Atlanta and New Orleans, coupled with a loss by Carolina to either Dallas or Atlanta, would give Tampa Bay its second NFC South title in four years.
"We're going to lean on our veteran football players who have been down this road before," Gruden said. "And we're going to try to fill up some our younger players' tanks with a little bit more fuel and try to round our team into as good of shape as we can for this upcoming game. Atlanta will come in here with a very talented roster and they are the defending (NFC) South champions."
--Defensive end Simeon Rice recorded his 10th sack of the season against the Patriots. In eight of his 10 NFL seasons, Rice has reached double-digit sack totals, including five straight years.
"It's hard to come out and perform like that for a long time," Rice said. "But at this point, with a victory, it would've been really big."
--Running back Cadillac Williams fell well short of the 76 yards he needed to reach 1,000 yards for his rookie season. He was held to 23 yards on 14 carries against the Patriots.
"It seemed like those guys were everywhere," Williams said.
--DT Anthony McFarland has a sprained knee and is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Falcons.
--TE Anthony Becht sprained his right ankle against the Patriots and is wearing a protective cast. His status is unknown for Saturday's game against the Falcons.
--RT Kenyatta Walker suffered a knee sprain against the Patriots and his status is unknown for Saturday's game against Atlanta.
--QB Chris Simms has a sprained thumb on his left hand - his throwing hand - but is expected to play Saturday against the Falcons.

I'm with Iddee, either way will work. Does your undrawn frames have foundation or not. If foundationless, you will need to keep a check on them to make sure they are drawing it straight. I would put them in one box and add the other when the first is about 80% drawn. I have let mine draw brood and honey supers that way, half drawn and half foundationless. Good luck to you and your bees Tiger.Joe
I agree with everyone! :cheer:However much depends on intended purpose and colony needs. If you want (or need) more drawn comb, then checkerboard the drawn with empties to encourage new comb building. If you just want to assure room for egg laying, especially for your packages, and let your queen rip it up, removing/replacing drawn comb as it hatches out, encouraging more comb building, or not depending on the intended purpose. By force of habit I now write with carpenter pencil on my top bars the year frames are placed in use so they can be removed after 3-5 seasons. As with most things in life and particularly beekeeping; Its all about the intended purpose.

I understand what some have said, but, the main reason for my choice of a 425 Caddy is, I already have it. I've had the engine since 1998 & I bought the whole car that it was in for $125 in running & "drive-able" condition as a "parts car". Also, for me to buy even a "core" 454 Chevy engine would be quite expensive. The cheapest 454 Chevy that I've found within 250 miles from my house is being "offered" at $800 & that doesn't include the cost of getting it & bringing it home.
So by the time I got that "core" 454, got it home & looked it over, I would already have well over $1,000 into it. Way too expensive! And, like someone had already said, even with a pair of aluminum heads ($$$), a 454 Chevy is still heavier than a stock 425 Caddy. Also for those who keep suggesting that I get a 500 Caddy, that too is too expensive. The cheapest "core" 500 that's in pieces is "for sale" at $650 & it is over 150 miles from my house. Again, too much to invest just to start over. I can use the money spent on that, towards the machine shop charges on my already existing 425 Caddy engine.
I hope that explains my reasoning for doing what I'm doing with a 425 Caddy engine.
I understand how building a hot motor from another, non-chevy brand can be cheaper initial investment. People pay crazy money for bbc and sbc nowadays. I'd rather build an Olds than a Chevy any day... But that inexpensive initial investment is going to be offset by whatever I have to spend on it later, and I recognize that. You're going to have more money in your rotating assembly than it would cost to just get a decent 472 or 500, and your going to come up short in cubes too... I commend you for being different, though.

You may find this table "Tafel" by Mareanne Bosch quite interesting. Mareanne chiselled an 18th century coffee table by hand into the sleek shape of an industrially manufactured aluminum table. Merging a clean modern archetype and an antique stylized shape, both need one another to continue standing.

E30 or E36 track day/DD
I have an issue I'm torn on. I like the looks of the e30's much more than the e36's, but I've been told that an e36 would perform better for track days and the like. Here is my issue, which would give me the best bang for the buck? I would also daily drive the car so take that into consideration.
1) Buy an e30 and do some basic mods, would this outperform the e36 and still cost less?
2) Buy an e30 and swap e36 suspension and engine/tranny from a wrecked/donor car? Would this be more costly than a stock e36? Noticably better performance?
3) just buy an e36? would that be the cheapest/best performing option?
E30's are the Chariot's of God's lol. I've owned a e36 and currently own a E30. My e36 had Tein springs with Bilsteins and front and rear strut bars. It handled pretty well after the alignment, but it seemed kinda "squirrely" when hard cornering. My e30 with Tokico springs and KYB's with a front strut bar without an alignment seems to have a better balance and feel. Also, the e30 weighs less.
To a large part "faster" is dependent on driver skill. At NASA events you will see Vette's giving point-bys to Miatas.
To answer your question, E30 hands down.
look, i hate e36. but if you want a competitive track car, they are better than the E30. buy a 325i or 328i Manual coupe, and you have a great competitive car right out of the box. The M50 and M52 engines are both fairly bullet proof as long as they aren't allowed to over heat, which happens quickly and unexpectedly, youd do well to change the cooling system completely on that car.
if you want fun though, a car you can slide out and you dont care if you are the quickest, an E30 would be the way to go. They are down on power to the E36, and the trailing arm suspension setup is very dated.
im thinking about building a race car seriously next year, and an E36 328i Manual coupe is more than likely the way ill be going, even though my heart tells me E30 E30 E30
I have both, an e30 and a e36 328i. I find the e36 a much better handling car. that being said my e36 is mint and the e30 is still a work in progress. but eventually i will be swapping a m52 and drive train into the e30 and doing a full coilover kit. then i guess it will be comparable.
but for the price of the swap and suspension, you can get a e36 and your off to the races with out much work.
i dont really have any track time in either car.
I am basing my comments on the condition of my e30 325 when i got it and the kind of work it needs in order to be comparable to a decent e36 328i.
I found my e36 much better at high speed corners and S turns while my e30 slides out much sooner. also, my particular e30 is a 325e so its slow as molasses. both having stock suspension. the stock suspension in almost any e30 will be worn out or atleast spongy by now while a 98 e36 has better suspension and less worn components.. of course that all depends on the car you get, but on average that should be about right. I have seen rusted out POS e36 and super clean stock e30's, but thats not average. especially here in canada.
So, the cost of a coil over kit is, lets say $1000.00
M50 or M52 can be sourced with tranny for $1000.00 (local wreckers, may or may not be in good working order)
you still need to upgrade some stuff and change some stuff for the swap at lets argue $600-$1000.00
and the E30 its self can range from $500 to $2000.00 depending on a whole wack of crap.
So, at the end of the day, you would have a really decent e30. but you have to put in alot of work (if your able, and if your not then its going to cost you 3 times as much for the swap, at a shop)
if you took that same $ amount you could go purchase a pretty decent e36 and jump on the track.
there is always exceptions to the rule and if you look hard enough you might be able to find the right car, but i am arguing the law of averages, or atleast what is most common in my area.
Like Mark said, a modded e30 will outperform a stock e36 with similar drivers..
If I was doing it, I would personally go with a stripped down e36 on bilstiens/H&R race springs with fresh suspension bits. The e36 is still one of the better handling cars BMW has, and now that e30s are becoming harder to find in clean condition, its not uncommon to see them selling for more than an e36 in similar condition. The e36 is a common car for teens now, so finding them in dire need of repairs is very common, which can be an awesome bargaining chip to get them cheap.
Thanks for all the input guys. I have 0 issues doing major work. My current car I fabricated a turbo kit from scratch, built the megasquirt from a kit and tuned it myself(plus complete drivetrain and chassis and suspension supporting mods). I just want the most performance for my money in parts/car. Here in SC I can find decent e30s for around $4-5k, an e36 is $7-8k.

Thanksgiving gatherings guide: From Black Friday events to turkey trots
By now, the day after Thanksgiving has practically become a holiday in its own right. Shoppers flock to stores before dawn, stock up on steeply discounted goods, and try not to start any brawls in the T-shirt aisle. It's as American as leftover apple pie.
Black Friday is also a great opportunity to set up a dedicated shopping event, as many savvy Eventbrite organizers have realized this year. So we thought we'd compile a quick Black Friday events guide to offer a method to the madness. From a "Shop-n-Drop" event in Virginia to "Night Owl Shopping" in Georgia to a "Shopapalooza" in Florida, there's sure to be a gathering near you.
Of course, if you'd rather spend the holiday weekend in a more traditional, turkey-themed way, we've got you covered there too. Here are some top Thanksgiving events, from turkey trots to cooking classes to something called "Robotics Turkey Day" (just have a look…). We'll see you out there!
