TMS Scheduler wrong Time format
Dear Support Community,
As you can see on the screenshot the problem with the german version of the scheduler is that the time is wrong shown, after 12:45 it shows 1:00 instead of 13:00, are you aware of this issue?
kind regards
Hi This case has now been resolved
The issue was in the TMS server registery under HKEY_USER\.Default\Control Panel\International
These two fields was missing AM and PM once re-populated the AM PM problem went away.
This field was changed to HH:mm which initiated german time to show in 24 hour format.
Then the problem was resolved.

Nobody has ever questioned Darrell Henderson and his skills. Last season he rushed for a 6A best 2,024 yards. The year before he ran for over 1,200 yards while leading his team to the 6A State Championship. But what has kept recruiters guessing would be how he would translate on the next level due to his size and speed.
"I worked hard this off season to put on some weight," Henderson said. "I was 5' 8", 175 this time last year and now I am 5' 10", 195. I have also been working a lot on my speed. I have been running with a 50 pound parachute and sprinting the 100's."
The new drills have helped his speed out in more ways than one.
"I am a lot quicker and faster now. I was working on my squats and getting my explosiveness up during the season. Now I am working on my quickness and speed. I ran a 4.32, 4.41, and a 4.28 at the different camps and combines this summer. I am a lot quicker too. It's not just my speed."
"I would have to really look at it because of their depth chart but most likely I would come on (board)."
The South Panola tailback has seen his recruitment pick up.
"The recruiting scene has started to pick up for me. It is better than I thought it was going to be. I am starting to hear from a bunch of colleges."
Henderson stopped by Ole Miss this month to visit with their coaches.
"Ole Miss has been telling me that they would like to have the best running back in the state that is not too far from them. They like my explosiveness and speed. I went over to their camp but couldn't run because I pulled my hamstring at MSU, but I got a chance to just hang out with their coaches for the day."
The running back coach at Ole Miss continues to build a good bond with the 6A Offensive Player of the Year.
"Coach (Derrick) Nix is a good coach. And me personally, I think he is one of their best coaches up there. He shows me a lot of love and a lot of respect."
Darrell has several friends and relatives that attend Ole Miss.
"It means a lot because I have some cousins and friends who go there. I come over there a lot and just visit my people. I know they fit in well over there so I know I would too."
Who are his latest offers?
"I just received three offers from Memphis, MTSU, and UT Martin. I performed at a high level at their camp. After their camp they called and offered me."
Which school could be next in line to offer?
"I would say Ole Miss or MSU. Ole Miss has a lot of depth at running back. They only have a few scholarships to give this year so I don't know what is going to happen. MSU is supposed to call coach (Lance) Pogue soon to let me know if they are going to offer me or not."
If Ole Miss were to offer what would happen next?
"I would have to really look at it because of their depth chart but most likely I would come on (board). They are kind of like home. Their fans and our fans are the same. We wear the same colors, and they love their football like our fans do. It isn't too far from here either."
Does Darrell feel slighted that he does not hold the scholarships like some of the other top prospects inside the state?
"It just motivates me to be honest. It makes me more hungry."

Jeep's Wrangler has a starring role in the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, and -- timed to coincide with the release of the video game at midnight tonight -- Jeep today announced a 2012 Jeep Wrangler Call of Duty: MW3 Special Edition, and a multimedia ad campaign to ride the wave of the popular game. The TV ad above begins airing today, the long form is above.
Gamers ready to report at game stores tonight for new Call of Duty: MW3. Details and video.
The special editions of the Wrangler and Wrangler Unlimited are based on the Rubicon trim and will go one sale next month, starting at $36,495 for the two-door and $40,070 for the four-door Unlimited, both plus shipping.
The Call of Duty Wranglers come in black or silver, with semi-gloss black wheels. The exterior is tricked up with Call of Duty graphics on the fenders and spare tire cover, a special "power-dome" hood and a batch of goodies from the Mopar accessory bin, including a winch-ready front bumper, rear bumper, rock rails, tail-lamp guards and fancy fuel-filler door. If that's not enough, buyers can have the dealer add more Mopar goodies including a Warn winch, 2-inch lift kit and five-spoke wheels.
The interior gets Call of Duty logos galore: on the black seats, the dash, the grab handle, the Mopar Slush Mats and the rear cargo mat.
This is Jeep's second tie-in with Activision's Call of Duty franchise, and the brand says the last special-edition fantasy Wrangler was a sell-out.
To promote the new Wranglers, the Jeep assault includes a social media contest to win the first special-edition Wrangler off the line, plus:
A movie production team created the TV ad and "the set was created with detailed elements taken directly from the game. The creative execution for the print advertisement and the billboards are uniquely designed to immediately catch your attention. Each element created and produced for this campaign mirrors the same look and feel found in the game," said Olivier Francois, Chrysler group's chief marketer.

Four More Gators Drafted in MLB Draft
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – The Gators had four players selected on the final day of the 2014 Major League Baseball Draft on Saturday. Head coach Kevin O'Sullivan's squad tallied six selections over the three-day event that spanned 40 rounds. The Gators have now had 52 picks in his seven-year tenure (three in 2008, 10 in 2009, six in 2010, 11 in 2011, nine in 2012, seven in 2013).
Redshirt junior Karsten Whitson was taken by the Boston Red Sox in the 11th round at No. 344. The right-hander was 1-1 with a 3.86 ERA this season, with 14 appearances, nine starts and 21 strikeouts in 37.1 innings. Over his Florida career, Whitson is 13-2 with a 2.95 ERA and 133 K in 168 innings. As a freshman in 2011, Whitson was chosen as the National Freshman Pitcher of the Year by Perfect Game and was named to the organization's Freshman All-American team. He also earned Freshman All-American recognition from Baseball America, Louisville Slugger and the National Collegiate Baseball Writers Association (NCBWA).
Junior Casey Turgeon was picked by the St. Louis Cardinals in the 24th round at No. 735. The second baseman batted .259 this season with a team-high 35 walks and was second on the squad in runs (36), RBI (33), doubles (11) and homers (4). Over his three years wearing the Orange and Blue, Turgeon has started 185 games and has a career average of .269, with 112 runs, 95 RBI, 28 doubles, 23 stolen bases and 13 homers.
Junior Ryan Harris went to the Boston Red Sox in the 26th round at No. 794. The right-hander was 3-2 with a 3.00 ERA in 27 appearances for the Gators this spring, with 19 strikeouts in 36 innings. He recorded a team-high five saves and was part of three Gator shutouts while limiting opponents to a .230 batting average. Harris has a 10-6 career mark with a 3.15 ERA in 79 appearances spanning 108.2 innings, with 81 K.
Although sidelined this season, redshirt junior Keenan Kish was selected in the 34th round by the Cincinnati Reds at No. 1, 025. The righty has a 1.72 ERA over his three-year Florida career, with 47 strikeouts in 47 innings.

- - Buying a new board (http://www.snowboardingforum.com/boards/24824-buying-new-board.html)
Buying a new board
Hi guys, i have a burton verdict and i'm planning to buy a better board since i'm snowboarding much better now (i can go really fast, do turns, jump, use boxes), but i'm not looking for a just park board cause i'm going to have just one board. Do you have any suggestions of boards that costs less then 400?
hey man, I have the verdict as well and am looking for a new board, I was thinking of a freeride one, but now decided to go with a more flexible one.
I am looking into maybe a lib banana skate, gnu credit or a k2 www, something with camber.
hope that will be helpful, and let me know what u got
Sure it was helpful, i will do some more research and when i buy it i let you know! Thanks
GNU credit is also a reverse.
The Burton Hero is on sale now and I have heard nothing but great things about it. It is geared towards the freestyle rider but have heard it is a great all mountain board.
hmm I will have a look at this Hero then ! Can someone explain me the difference between camber and rocker?
Sure. Camber is the traditional snowboard set up. Where the middle of the board between your feet has somewhat of an arch to it, which ultimately helps create more pop in the board. The tips still flare up on the ends.
With rocker or "reverse camber", the part between your legs is flat, no arching, and the tips of the board are shaped up in a more extreme fashion. This allows for a different kind of contact between the snow and the rider, useful to preform easier butters (spinning on the ground), better control in most conditions other than powder at normal speeds, and in many rocker boards it provides more control when hitting smaller jumps and doing presses.
However, downfalls are is that it is a completely different riding experience, doesnt ride as well in powder or at higher speeds, and the boards tend to not be very firm at all.
Just depends what you are looking for. Hope this helps! I ride traditional camber just for reference.
Well....nowadays its not so clear because there are many different types of rocker. The best thing to do is go on each individual company's site and check out which rocker tech they are using. Here is the info on the Hero. For info on the rocker click on the word "V-Rocker" down in the tech area.
Men's Hero Limited Snowboard | Burton Snowboards
Here is the description for the V-Rocker:
A three-stage rocker thats equally fun from park to pow, V-Rocker features a center rocker between your feet, with additional rockers outside each foot that lift the tip and tail completely off the snow. Along the Channel zones, we added Pressure Distribution Edges for enhanced grip and power that balances the boards loose and forgiving, skate-like feel. Together, the V-Rocker package energizes edge control while disengaging tip and tail contact points to create a catch-free feel thats incredibly forgiving, floaty, poppy, and fun on all terrain.

Red Bull
From Conservapedia
Red Bull is an energy drink produced in Austria. According to a 2005 study, it was the most popular energy drink in the world, possessing over 60% of the market share.[1] It's main alertness-inducing ingredients are caffeine, taurine and glucuronolactone, all of which can cause adverse cardiovascular effects. However, a study by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has concluded that the amounts present in Red Bull are considered safe.[2]
Red Bull also owns several sports teams, most notably the New York Red Bulls (MLS), RB Leipzig (Bundesliga) and Red Bull Racing (Formula 1).

Hey Maya guys,
I recently came up with a strange problem:
We have an animation file which is 6 MB in version one.
One day later our animator fixed some issues and after that we've had a file size of 600 MB. o_O
Examining the file I found out that this version had an enormous amount of animation layers which had been imported but are totally useless. I deleted these layers, the scene was 140 MB smaller but still is far away from being 6 MB.
Does anybody know what could be done to reduce the file size again?
By the way I used "Optimize" but I could only scale the file size down to approx. 380 MB (inlcuding the animation layer reduction).
Thanks in advance

The Spice Girls Rumored To Tour Australia Next Year
February 27, 2013 | Posted by
Australian radio station 104.1 2day FM reports that during the Kyle and Jackie O breakfast show in Sydney, it was announced that the Spice Girls will tour Australia next year, with all five members included.
They would not reveal the source of the information but said it was "very reliable".
However, Perez Hilton questioned this on Twitter and got a reply from Mel B (Scary Spice) that said the reports were "rumors".

I'm hanging a wall in my house right with 5/8" (well, actually, the 3rd layer). I've hung the sheets horizontally for the top part of the wall and am about to hang the bottom.
The best apparent placement of the lower sheets leaves the two butt joints about 6" apart. Is this enough separation for floating or is more distance between the two required for optimal floating? These would be the only butt joints on the wall and are vertical.
Also, this 'optimal' placement means that the upper and lower 12' sheets will start from the same point. Does this present any issues? The two lower layers are staggered (12' and 8' upper, 8' and 12' lower).
Why 3 layers?
You can float joint compound pretty much anywhere. But obviously your rocking a wall that has a pretty hefty fire rating. Townhouse? Apartment? 3 layers is hefty for any standard residential construction. I haven't done much in fire rating but as long as the joints are staggered you should meet code. But with that being said how are you staggering 6'' anyway? wall framed on 6'' on center? Think code might be staggered 1 foot. Don't quote me on that.
Three layers of 5/8 Drywall? Why? Is my question? Code for fire rating in a home for garage to living space is just 5/8. this is way over kill! But its your money.
Thanks to all for your comments. I've found that I have an extra 12x8 sheet, so I may just resolve the issue by placing two 10' (give or take) sheets.
If you wanted Sound Proofing I would have used rockwool batts and just one sheet of 5/8's would have saved you a ton of money!
Seriously.. Soundproofing never even entered my mind.. Tons of better ways of doing it. Even the green fiber cellulose insulation offers tremendous soundproofing..
My son is a drummer and I put rock wool batts in the stud cavities and then 1/2 inch dry wall almost zero sound.
Thanks for the comments, guys. If you research soundproofing, you'll find it's a bit more complex than insulating wall cavities (which only stops certain frequencies of sound, and not very well in most cases).
Sound is like water. It will find any "leaks" and get through. For instance, if you've built a wall to a 60 STC rating according to the accepted soundproofing strategies, but leave out putty pads at the outlets, your sound rating just dropped significantly. In fact, you may not have improved sound dampening at all, just by forgetting one item.
Insulation is just one ingredient in the mix. Mass is your best friend when "soundproofing". My wall is as described below:
Existing wall, gutted on one side, mechanically decoupled staggered wall, mineral wool insulation (touching only one set of studs), 3 layers of 5/8 fire rock (on each side of wall), seams staggered, green glue in between each layer, acoustic sound sealant at every sheetrock seam on the lower layers, around outlets (outlets also employ putty pads), in corners, at and on bottom plate from floor to bottom edge of sheetrock. There will also be a solid core door with a door sweep. Adjacent intersecting walls are also double rocked with GG.
There are many factors when soundproofing, and it can be quite a difficult (& expensive) process, as sound can find ways to flank all of your hard work. Sometimes it's structural flanking paths that can be difficult or impossible to correct.
I only wish that all it took was Rockwool in the cavities. But soundproofing is a science that incorporates lots of factors. If you're really interested in finding out more, here are some links:
Google search - soundproofing & walls
Soundproofing company: Some great articles and principals of soundproofing:
And one more...AVS forum, a neutral community into soundproofing for the purposes of home theaters:
Lol ! Sounds you most definitely are more knowledgeable in the area of soundproofing then I. Sounds like you didn't need any help at all ! Very curious though, what is being done in this office?? Is it top secret :)
Hey I just found some real cool sound proofing drywall. and I bet it is better then three layers of 5/8.
Thanks for the heads up. I saw that in the course of researching the issue. I researched both methods thoroughly. Each camp swears by their 'method'.
I suppose QR could be as good or better, certainly easier than hanging 6 layers. But the net is filled with conflicting opinions. My logic was that, QR, being manufactured with a special layer in between, was subject to human error, while it's hard to screw up mass. As you can surmise from this thread, I invested myself in mass. I doubt there will be enough difference to make me regret it. The price worked out to about the same, counting GG and sound sealant.
Thank you for taking the time to bring this to my attention.

The UC baseball team suffered a three-game sweep at the hands of Eastern Michigan this weekend, but it didn't come without plenty of opportunities to pile on runs. Entering a difficult week against Purdue and Kentucky, finding key hits stands atop the priority list.
By Ashley Davis/Special to GoBearcats.com
CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati Bearcats' (4-8) offense stalled this weekend as Eastern Michigan (6-9) pitched a shutout Sunday at Marge Schott Stadium, 3-0, thus completing a three-game sweep.
In the first two games of the series, UC let Eastern Michigan bat around the lineup in one inning, including a ninth-inning six-run rally on Saturday and a nine-run inning on Friday.
On Sunday, the offense was non-existent. The Bearcats had only six hits and no player had more than one hit.
But one factor was the same in all three games: leaving runners on base.
"[It's] really been the case all weekend," Cleary says. "We just have not been able to cash in some opportunities, giving away some at-bats in some key situations."
Friday UC left 10 men on base. Saturday, it was eight. Sunday, it was six.
The bottom of the fourth inning Sunday was a perfect example of the Bearcats' inability to get runners home with less than two outs.
After freshman Ian Happ grounded out to start the inning, freshmen Jeff Murray and Woody Wallace both singled. Murray then advanced to third on a wild pitch, but junior Brendon Neel and redshirt freshman Taylor Schmidt struck out back-to-back.
These types of innings were frequent for the Bearcats all weekend. Two players reached base via singles before a fielder's choice and a strikeout snuffed out a threat on Friday. Saturday they left men on base six of the nine innings, including the ninth inning when they were down 7-3.
If there was one good thing to take away from the weekend, however, it was the Bearcats' young pitchers. Redshirt freshman Connor Walsh made his fourth start of the season Friday and pitched 6 1/3 innings, giving up one run on five hits and striking out five batters.
Mitch Patishall started Sunday and gave up two runs on three hits with three strikeouts. Cleary was pleased with the freshman's first career start.
"He did a really good job," Cleary says. "He's got some things he can improve on, but certainly he was competitive."
Cleary was also impressed with sophomore Art Warren, who relieved Patishall in the fourth.
"I thought he did a good job, other than his run, the solo home run, and falling behind in the count," he said. "But I thought he made some great pitches."
As the Cats look toward their week with games against two good teams in Purdue and Kentucky, they hope their offense can come to life.
"I feel good about a lot of what's going on," Cleary says. "We're making it very difficult on ourselves with some little things. We've got some of these guys playing more and getting more comfortable in the field."
We want to hear from you! If you have any questions, comments or observations about UC baseball shoot them to firstname.lastname@example.com.

Europe's Illusion of a Renewable FutureSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Wed, 05/06/2015 - 09:50
Germany is the economic powerhouse of the EU, with a far larger and more industrialized economy than other European nations—the fourth largest in the world. Given such a large industrial base it is unsurprising that Germany needs reliable power, which makes its headlong rush into renewable energy, called Energiewende ("energy transition"), even more mystifying than similar attempts by smaller EU states. Now come reports that the country's rapid expansion into solar, wind, and other renewables has not been entirely smooth. Subsidies and regulations are promoting ill considered wind and solar installations while driving up costs. Slipped in among the solar panels and wind turbines are "biomass" generators—in other words, things that burn wood and agricultural waste—and the green party's anti-nuclear pogrom has led to an upsurge in coal usage. This hardly sounds like progress. Meanwhile, a new article makes bold claims for three of the smaller EU markets. Denmark, Portugal, and Spain have all made rapid transitions away from fossil fuels for electricity, but each in a different way. Are they truly examples for the world to follow?
Fungi & Nitrous Oxide, The Forgotten Greenhouse GasSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Tue, 04/21/2015 - 11:59
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a known greenhouse gas (GHG) that is more potent than CO2 and is a contributing factor in ozone layer depletion, yet little has been published on natural sources of this compound. Despite the importance of fungi in several soil functions, the production of N2O by fungi has only been studied in a limited number of strains. A new report in the journal Nature has revealed that may types of fungi naturally produce N2O. Obviously this is more of that "settled science" the climate alarmists forgot to mention.
Climate: The Unsettled ScienceSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Tue, 04/07/2015 - 11:24
Despite what gets reported in the news media, there are good climate scientists out there, quietly laboring away at that "settled science." They are actually trying to understand climate instead of making unsubstantiated, bombastic predictions about future global warming. As a result, several recent papers have cast additional doubt on the validity of climate models as they now stand. In one, wide variation in solar radiation at the top of the atmosphere adds to the major errors in basic physics inherent in the so-called "state of the art" climate models. Another paper, on aerosol radiative forcing, casts doubt on the fundamental assertion of climate alarmists regarding the warming power of CO2. Adding to the stink over the settled science claim, the journal Nature carried a news article that says such assertions are "absolutely not true" and pleads for a new crop of physicists to help unravel the persistent ongoing climate mysteries. The outlook for climate science is cloudy indeed.
Climate Models' "Basic Physics" Falls Short of Real ScienceSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Sun, 03/08/2015 - 15:23
Recently, a PR offensive has been mounted by the minions of climate alarmism, attempting to rehabilitate the soiled reputation of climate models. Most everyone by now has heard of the 18+ year pause in global temperature increase, dubbed the "pause" by climate change advocates. This hiatus in global temperature increase, happening in the face of ever rising atmospheric CO2 levels, has caused even the most die hard climate alarmists to doubt the veracity of climate science's digital oracles. The latest phrase being test marketed in the green stooge press is the claim that climate models are just "Basic Physics", implying that they are in some way scientifically accurate. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
Nominate Judith Curry as the next IPCC ChairSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Wed, 03/04/2015 - 11:57
As you may know, the current head of the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), Rajenda K. Pachauri has been forced to resign over sexual harassment allegations by women on his staff. Out on bail, Pachauri's downward spiral continues: On March 1, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi accepted Pachauri's resignation from the Prime Minister's climate change council. Given this opening at the top of the world's premier climate change organization we think it time a real climate scientist heads the agency. Help us by signing the petition to President Obama today.
If At First You're Not Believed, Lie, Lie AgainSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Mon, 02/16/2015 - 13:26
Proving the old adage, if your first lie isn't believed lie again and make it a whopper, NASA GISS announced another study proclaiming imminent climate catastrophe. This time it's the US Southwest and the scourge is not just drought, it's Megadrought! The report predicts that decades-long droughts are likely to ravage the US Southwest and Great Plains within the next century. "This drying could be worse than any other in the past 1,000 years, including a 'megadrought' seven centuries ago that helped drive an ancient civilization to collapse," wails Nature online. But just how did the researchers come to this conclusion and what evidence do they base their predictions on? As it turns out the whole thing is a house of cards.

Five men, all island natives, were arrested, tried and convicted of the murders. What no one knew was that there was a sixth assassin present at the Fountain Valley Massacre. Visit an island paradise of sandy beaches, blue skies, and palm trees, where hatred and murder lurk just beneath the sun drenched surface.
It's An Ill Wind That Blows Nobody Any GoodSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Tue, 01/27/2015 - 13:33
In his recent State of the Union (SOTU) address, US President Barack Obama claimed that "America is number one in wind power." This will come as a shock to China and several other countries that have led the way in green energy like wind and solar. That aside, expanding wind energy may not be the blessing its boosters tout. In Europe, many of the newly installed wind turbines are replacing existing older models, and in China as much as 15% of the installed turbines are not connected to the power grid. And with fierce winter storms in the news on both sides of the Atlantic, news comes from the UK of an epic fail for wind power. Are the fortunes of windpower shifting?
Crank of the Week – January 23, 2015 – Barack ObamaSubmitted by admin on Thu, 01/22/2015 - 13:47
Showing the same stubborn capacity to stick around and bother people as a genital wart, US President Barack Obama managed to once again lie to the American public and the entire world during his penultimate State of the Union (SOTU) address to Congress. His command of misinformation was breathtaking, repeating the charge that global warming was causing increased violent weather and the reality twisting claim by NASA that 2014 was the hottest year ever. Though Obama has won the coveted COTW several times before we felt that he truly deserved this one. Besides, as he slips rapidly into irrelevance this might be his last chance to deliver climate change whoppers with his patented bogus sincerity.
2014 - Annus Horribilus For Climate AlarmistsSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Fri, 01/09/2015 - 12:47
As the new year begins the forces of climate alarmism find themselves in disarray. The world refuses to warm, despite contorted data manipulation aimed at squeezing out a claimed "hottest year ever" record by NOAA. One hundredth of a degree does not a warming trend create. Northern hemisphere temperatures are depressed for the second year in a row—also not a climate trend in itself but a psychological blow to the warmists trying to sell the idea that temperatures are at a record high. Moreover, there are indications that the climatologists' bane, CO2, is not ravaging tropical forests and is not being produced where the "blame the developed world first" crowd expected. In all, a good start to the new year because it is a bad start for the alarmists.
Celestial Collisions, Climate Change and ConsensusSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Mon, 12/08/2014 - 15:07
Despite efforts to correct and educate many ersatz climate experts, many persist in using consensus as an argument in favor of the failed theory of global warming caused by human CO2 emissions. From froth at the mouth fanboys on Twitter to empty headed politicians on network television, the cry comes: "what about the 97% consensus among scientists?" On occasion old, and evidently lazy, scientists revert to using "consensus" as an argument. Once again I will try to set the record straight when it comes to polls among scientists and scientific proof.
Review: Disasters & Climate Change by Roger Pielke, Jr.Submitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Thu, 11/06/2014 - 11:02
The Rightful Place of Science: Disasters & Climate Change is the latest book by Roger Pielke, Jr., noted political scientist and professor in the Environmental Studies Program and a Fellow of the Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES). In it he addresses the controversial subject of whether natural disasters are becoming more frequent and more fearsome due to manmade climate change. This short volume is an excellent summary of his work in this area and a reference that anyone serious about climate change should have on their shelf. After receiving an advance copy of the work, here is my review.
Skunk Works To Build Compact Fusion ReactorSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Mon, 11/03/2014 - 13:58
Lockheed Martin's Skunk Works, famous for creating, among other things, the U-2 & SR-71 spy planes and the F-117 stealth fighter, shocked the world of physics research by announcing that they are going to build a compact fusion reactor. The proposed compact fusion reactor (CFR) is conceptually safer, cleaner and more powerful than much larger, current nuclear systems that rely on fission. Governments and industry have poured billions of dollars into fusion research for half a century with little success. Can Lockheed's vaunted engineers succeed where armies of PhDs have failed? If so, the arguments over energy, the environment and de-industrialization are over—or are they?
Message To ISIS, Allen Simmons' New Thriller Released.Submitted by Resilient Earth... on Wed, 10/29/2014 - 09:22
Resilient Earth Press is pleased to announce that Message to ISIS, Allen Simmons' latest novel has been released. In this action packed thriller, ripped from today's headlines, Simmons calls on his personal knowledge of Saudi Arabia and the oil business to craft a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. It's available now on Amazon.com as a Kindle eBook.
Germany's Solar FailureSubmitted by Doug L. Hoffman on Fri, 09/26/2014 - 12:34
A new analysis answers the question "should other nations follow Germany's lead on promoting solar Power?" That question was asked on Quora and answered by Ryan Carlyle, BSChE, and a Subsea Hydraulics Engineer. His detailed and well reasoned answer is the most forceful possible NO. According to Carlyle Germany's program has the "absurd distinction" of hitting the trifecta of bad energy policy: bad for consumers, bad for industry, and bad for the environment. So while misguided greens point to Germany as a solar success, a rising tide of opposition and resentment is growing among the German public.

Cowgirls take on Columbia Falls to open State A tourney
Forsyth, Wibaux, Jordan also playing
By JOSH SAMUELSON
Star Sports Editor
After a long, impressive weekend at the Eastern A Divisional Tournament, the Custer County District High School Cowgirl volleyball team is headed to Bozeman for the Montana Class A State Tournament, which starts tomorrow.
The Cowgirls played in five of the 10 matches at the divisional tournament, qualifying as the second seed from the Eastern A.
"I think we're ready to go," Cowgirl senior Tori Swope said. "We've definitely been nailing our faults this week in practice. Playing three matches definitely gets to you. But coming out of divisionals, we were ready to get after it again."
The Cowgirls aren't the only local teams to be playing at the All-Class Tournament. Forsyth will be playing in the Class B Tournament, while Jordan and Wibaux will be in the Class C.
The Cowgirls enter the state tournament with a 17-16 record on the season. They will open the tournament against Columbia Falls, the Northwestern A champion, at noon on Thursday.
"I think we've made improvements all year long," Cowgirls head coach Marci Mollman said. "We've come together as a team. Our goal
At the divisional tournament, the Cowgirls came out shaky against Hardin and lost in four games. They had to battle back in the loser-out bracket, sweeping Sidney and Laurel to set up a rematch with Hardin.
In that rematch, the Cowgirls handled Hardin in four games, clinching a spot in the state tournament.
"I think it shows them that no matter what the odds are, they can come back," Mollman said. "As long as they work hard and focus. They were scared the first game, lost sight of what we needed to do and as soon as they realized to play their game and focus, they came back."
Swope echoed those sentiments.
"I think it shows our skill as a team, when we focus and are ready to go," Swope said. "I think the nerves got to us a lot and our head weren't in it. But battling back gives us confidence going into the state tournament."
The Cowgirls will be making their second trip in three seasons, having qualified two years ago. The Cowgirls have seven seniors on their roster, but Swope and Shaylee Singleton are the only ones that saw time at the state tournament.
"All of our seniors are leaders, whether they've been there or not," Mollman said. "But it helps to know the atmosphere and to be able to have the calming force. Tori is one of our natural leaders and she's a great calming presence. And then add in Shaylee, and they understand what it means to be there and what they're going to be up against is helpful."
The All-Class tournament is an interesting spectacle, with all four classes playing their matches at the same time in the same building.
"Just told them, pretty much not to freak out," Swope said. "You walk up the runways and there's lights everywhere and it's pretty nerve-wracking. It's awesome, but it's wild."
Columbia Falls entered the Northwestern A championship match as the only unbeaten team, having beat Frenchtown in the undefeated semifinal. But, Frenchtown swept Columbia Fallsin the first match before the WildKats rallied to win in four games in the second championship match.
"it looks like they're a young team," Mollman said. "They have a freshman setter, who is also their top blocker. They have two or three hitters that are consistently in the top. They're like us, they have a couple hitters to go to, like we do."
The winner of their match will take on the winner of Lewistown and Dillon at 6 p.m., on Thursday. The losers of those first-round matches will play on Friday morning at 10 a.m.
The Lady Dogies haven't played at the state tournament since 1989, but come into the tournament on a roll.
The Lady Dogies are 23-6 on the season, with all six of their losses coming to Huntley Project. Huntley beat them in the championship matches of the Laurel and Hunltey Project Tournaments and then twice at the Southern B Divisional last weekend.
"I think we've peaked at the right time," Forsyth Head Coach Deb Cole said. "We've played great offensively and defensively. I couldn't be more pleased heading into the tournament."
At the Southern B, the Lady Dogies opened with a sweep of Red Lodge and then swept Boulder in the quarterfinals. In the semifinals, they were swept by Huntley but bounced back to sweep Red Lodge for the second time.
In the championship match, the Lady Dogies played well, but eventually lost in five games to Huntley again.
Forsyth has just three seniors on their roster, but have great size with their younger players. Sami Hagadone, Mykaila Jensen and Laura Hein are each over 5'11".
"We have a pretty well-rounded team," Cole said. "Our setter, Kayla Fulton, is doing a great job of running the offense. And our main hitters, Kaylee Zard and Ruby Kallenbach, are putting down a lot of kills for us. Allie Cole is playing great defense and our two middle blockers, Hagadone and Hein, are putting up a big block. Our kill leaders can change, the dig leaders change and we serve aggressively."
Forsyth opens against Deer Lodge at 4 p.m.
"It sounds like Deer Lodge is a solid team, but everyone is at the state tournament," Cole said. "We're going to do what we do well, and that's be aggressive and go after the ball. We want to play the game our style and hopefully get a win in the ropening round. Our girls are focused and ready to go."
Wibaux Lady Longhorns
The Lady Longhorns rolled through the Eastern C Divisional Tournament last weekend in Sidney, winning the divisional title while going undefeated in the postseason.
"We had an excellent divisional tournament," Wibaux Head Coach Carmen Smith said. "This is the first divisional title in school history and they played really well."
The Lady Longhorns are 20-2 on the season, with their only losses coming in the regular season against Terry and Beach, N.D.
At the divisional tournament, Wibaux opened with a sweep of Bainville and then swept Terry in the quarterfinals.
In the undefeated semifinals, the Lady Longhorns beat Circle in four games to clinch their spot in the state tournament and a berth in the championship match.
The Lady Longhorns faced a good Jordan team in the championship match, and earned a sweep of the Lady Mustangs.
This is the sixth trip to the state tournament in school history, and third in a row. They have been the second seed behind Circle in 2011 and Westby-Grenora in 2012.
"It's great to finally go in as the top seed," Smith said.
The Lady Longhorns returned just two starters from last season, Chelsea Leach and Sydney Schieffer. Leach, a three-year starter, leads the team in attacks and kills and is also one of their top blockers. Schieffer moved from hitter to setter this season and "sees the floor really well and is our tactical thinker," according to Smith.
Sophomores Lexi Begger and Hannah Bakken have also stepped in well for the Lady Longhorns.
Wibaux opens the state tournament against Chinook at 10 a.m.
The Jordan Lady Mustangs took a roundabout way into the State Tournament, having to play six matches at the Eastern C Divisional.
After beat Westby-Grenora in five games in the first-round, the Lady Mustangs were swept by Circle in the quarterfinals. They rallied back with a five-game win over Fairview and a sweep of Terry to set up a rematch with Circle.
In that match, Jordan returned the favor with a sweep of the Lady Wildcats to earn their trip to the state tournament.
"We went into the tournament strong and confident," Jordan Head Coach Shauna Murnion said. "We ended up losing to Circle, which was unplanned, but the girls were pretty determined to battle back and get to state."
The Lady Mustangs have very little size. Arielle Billing is the tallest player on the Jordan roster at 5'7".
"We're not a big team, but we make up for it with hard work," Murnion said. "We work very hard at our jobs and that puts us in a good position."
Billing, along with fellow seniors Carrie Murnion and Shanae Phipps, provide the leadership on the team.
"We have good bunch of seniors, an experienced bunch," Murnion said. "And then we have a couple juniors and three sophomores, so it'll be a good group coming back next year."
Jordan has not reached a state tournament since 2001, when they went twice in the same year. In the winter of 2001, the Lady Mustangs qualified for the state tournament and after the seasons were switched for the 2001-02 school year, they qualified again that fall.
Jordan will take on Winnett-Grass Range at 2 p.m., in the first-round.

Hey guys, trying to come up with a name for a Glock 19. Any suggestions? Some of you may think it's silly, but to each his own.

Hey guys, trying to come up with a name for a Glock 19. Any suggestions? Some of you may think it's silly, but to each his own.
I'd do something to give it some character before I named it. Otherwise it's just like any other soulless Glock pistol out there.
i named my sigpro after the middle name of this hot girl i know; but i play it off like i named it after the go code for the black hawk down mission.
girl names are generally a hit, unless its like 'agnes' or something that sounds like a grandma :D
edit= I def agree with revolver; there's a guy on this board that does engravings, they look really good. i'm going to try to get a sillhoutte(sp?) of a hottie in a bikini on the top of my slide when i get a couple free bucks. its gonna look bad ass.
Only named 1 gun - my very 1st 1911. I sold it years ago to buy a telescope, so I don't have it anymore... (now, I am selling the telescope to buy a gun :p )
You know I never thought of giving any of my guns names!If I did this one would be called "SWEETNESS",cause it's my favorite handgun. Ruger Vaquero(old style) .45colt Bird's Head:mrgreen:
Guess I'll have ta name this rest now so they don't git their felling hurt.:smt082 Randall
p.s. help me name the Daewoo DP-51. Kim-Chee??????
YNOT TONY? It's a great name.
I know a probation officer who calls her glock "Big Sexy." I haven't deciphered that one, yet.
I should hook you up with my ex-wife. She's great at this stuff. We bought a red VW Rabbit one year and she named it "Rabbit Redford." We got a hamster back in the mid eighties and she named it "MC Hamster." For a small fee, I'll give you her phone #.
Call it Tupac (short for tupperware accident):mrgreen: :mrgreen:
My first has a reason behind her name, my second was a nickname that stuck, and the third was a suggestion. So, in that order, my Sig is named "Secret" because I've been keeping her a secret for four years from my anti-gun dad. My 686 was named "Canon" by a few friends. And the Bersa is named "The Noisy Cricket" like the little gun Will Smith had in Men in Black. Just have fun with the names, man! Whatever comes to mind.
Names for guns? What'll they think of next?:smt082
How about "FLUFFY" or "CUDDLES"?
I saw a movie where a little girl named her big Doberman Fluffy, so I guess it would fit a Glock.:mrgreen:
My wife has a Baby Desert Eagle she named "BABY". I don't know how she came up with that.:rolleyes:
I think I'm gonna name my MP40 "Lean, Mean, Shootin Machine":smt068
Looks like this thread is going to be fun soooo,I'm going to name my Colt .Officer's .45acp ummm B.O.H.I.C.A. short for" bend over here it comes again"! :smt082 Randall
Your right J. R. This might be a lot of fun. :cool:
I started to name my S & W 686 357 mag, "Mr Happy" but I've already used that name for something else!!!:smt082
I'm thinking something to do with subs and guns since you do both. Maybe something like "Boomer"? Guns go "Boom" and I think that's a sub term. Although I may have to watch/read Hunt for Red October again to make sure. :mrgreen:

- - generic question about personal space and biting (http://www.germanshepherds.com/forum/aggression-good-bad-ugly/416874-generic-question-about-personal-space-biting.html)
generic question about personal space and biting
Because of the kid being bitten in the face thread, I am wondering about a topic that was a thread a while back about personal space.
I know that Babs does not like dogs coming right up into her face, she will snap at them -- she has done this twice with strange dogs, and then with the puppy (1 year old Karma) on Sunday. She never did connect and the two snaps at the puppy were really wimpy, not like the snap at the over-friendly Doberman a few years ago. I think she was just telling the offensive, forward dog, that they should get out of her space. With me, or the little girls, there is none of that going on. I invite her up into my space all the time, and I can hug her, put my face right into hers. No problem. And the vet can too.
I am wondering, if the dog sees a child that they live with as lower in the pack order than she is, might they choose to correct a child the way a dog corrects another dog? Or, if people respond to a dog's increasing displays of discomfort/aggression by correcting the child and making what the dog wants to happen, happen, instead of correcting the dog, will that encourage the dog in its method of limiting that sort of behavior?
My dogs LIKE to be in my face or for me to get into their face. Jenna is a face licker. Puppies, breathe on them and they will lick your face -- that's normal. Ninja jumps up on the dog house every day to get her hugs, and to lick my face. I lean back in my office chair and scooch up to Babs' easy chair, and she climbs on top of me and licks my face. I have never been afraid of being right in my dog's faces, and since I have had to give eye ointment, and clean ears, and look at teeth, I need for them to not bar me from their personal space.
And, while it is not normal, if I am in the vet's office, I expect my dogs to check out my demeaner and if I am not freaking out, then they should tolerate whatever the vet needs to do. So far, not a problem.
But I hear a lot of people saying that they do not allow people in their dog's faces. And I guess most people aren't trying to get right into my dog's face. I had one of my puppy buyers, reach over a fence and give one my dog's a kiss once, and I told her that she really shouldn't do that to a dog she doesn't know. But the dog was more startled and just allowed it.
Same with Cujo when the little kid ran up while I was paying the bill at the counter. The kid ran up behind and full body hugged him. He was too startled by it, to actually react, and it's not so much that he was a good dog, but his reaction was acceptable, and we dodged a bullet so to speak.
Another dog that is not accustomed to that from a stranger might have reacted differently I am hearing. So the question is, do you socialize the dog and familiarize them with hugs and people up in their faces, or is it more the dogs that have people doing this, and are displaying increasing discomfort with it, the ones that are more likely to lash out?
I mean, if we dig around in a dog's food dish, and take shtuff away from the dog, and mess with it and give it back, we can create food aggressive issues where there might not have been any. Can we also create problems by pushing a dog to accept everything from everybody as a part of socialization, and if the dog doesn't seem to like it, flood the dog. When if we had left well enough alone, the one or two incidents that might happen when someone the dog does not trust gets into the dog's face, the dog will be startled/surprised, but not actually aggress to the point of a bite.
I did have a puppy that I placed, that I would pick up (he was a cute booger), and bring him up to my face and he would bite my nose. Every time. You would think I would learn. He was 13 weeks old. I figured he just saw my face as a huge toy, and the nose was sticking out, and if he was lucky, he could make the whole thing make noise. I was not sorry to see that one go. I told the people, "he bites."
I guess I am just fascinated with this topic. Someone suggested I start a generic dog bites kid thread. I think I would rather discuss dogs' attitude toward their face area, or other spots like paws or ears if they are problematic for some dogs.
Gosh, I don't know, a couple of questions about whether socializing dogs that have a problem with personal space might make them more dangerous, and whether our responses to a dog that has personal space issues might increase the problem.
I suppose, I am just interested in a general discussion about personal space issues and aggression in dogs, particularly the in your face and hugging stuff.

But if the dog doesn't like whatever is being done to him, I do believe that one day the bite will ensue, meaning, "What part of I don't like that don't you understand? Here, let me escalate and get my point across more clearly..."
It really depends on the temperament of the dog.
A lot of it is temperament. A lot can be done to make a puppy tolerant of THB (typical human bull****) but once you have an older dog especially after the 2 year mark it usually becomes way harder to deal with and generally becomes a management thing.
We have a dog in board and train atm who is 7 and has bitten for people getting in his face or getting huggy and touchy with him. I haven't seen any issues from him yet because i dont do it so we get on just fine. Now at some point after i build some trust with him ill try to get him to become more tolerant of it but he will probably never be that cuddly type of dog. Its just a part of his personality now. To a certain extent i think you just have to respect that.
Since my husband does not like a lot of socialization when he's home (he gets a ton at work), it was difficult to social Molly to other people. She definitely loves that our immediate family and cats are in her face, and she licks back, but I'd never want to test her on another person. While we are at the vet, and the vet techs are listening to her heart at her level she will try to lick their face, she knows they like her. We also have a business neighbor that clearly loves all dogs and she will let him get in her face.
My neighbor has a very sweet, submissive female pitbull. This is her first dog. Since hers is so sweet, maybe she thought all were sweet and while on a walk by herself, she saw another pitbull and bent down to the dog's level to pet and say hello, I guess she was too close and the stranger pitbull bit her in the face, requiring and ER visit and plastic surgery 6 months later on her upper lip. Ever since her story I am apprehensive about getting too close to another dog's face, even if the owner says its very nice.
I guess I have enough dogs that I do not need to get doggy kisses from other people's dogs. I think a lot of it comes down to when the dog comes up to you, licks your hand, comes over and checks your face out -- like at the vet, usually the techs are not right in the dog's face, but the dog will move their head and sniff and lick at them.
But yeah, listening to other people's horror stories makes you think, what if? I mean, we think we know our dogs. But maybe that pit owner thought she knew her dog too. Maybe she was flabbergasted that her dog did that.
generic question about personal space and biting
Here's our 16 month old Lady: she regularly gets picked up so that she stands on her back heels and held, she has her bones and favorite treats taken away mid-chew, she has 5 different people on a daily basis-4 of which are teens, coming and going, in her face, rubbing her paws and ears and tail(which she does NOT like), and one, 19 years old, has always straddled her and pretended like she was horse....not one time have we ever been scared or worried...but I have told them many, many times, that they have to protect HER...that if she is allowed to get in trouble and hurts someone, everything changes. When we go out, I often move away from people because she is so excited and I am afraid she will accidentally hurt someone. If someone approaches her I ask them to wait for a minute and the humans converse about how excited she is--so they are warned about how happy she will be to see them...I ultimately feel it's my job to protect her😎

This is good topic. And a confusing one. I know my opinions differ quite a bit, even as I was thinking about my reply.
I expect my dogs to allow me to do anything I want to them. If I open their mouth to look inside, they better allow it. Same with hugging, restraining, picking up feet, lifting tail. If I had a family living with me, the same would go for everyone that lives in my house. It's non negotiable. That does not mean I spend my time testing and training these behaviors. I just do them and move on.
If I had not done my job and for some reason my dog did not perceive other family members as having that respect as well, then I have failed.
Now for John Q. Public. This is where I start getting wishy washy. I, personally would not knowingly take a dog to a public place without being sure of their response. But, to be sure if their response, you have to take them. So I generally pick smaller events, or go in knowing that I may have to leave if it proves overwhelming to my dog.
For example. I KNOW my female Lena can be very snarky with other dogs. So she does not get brought to large events with lots of dogs. She can handle fewer dogs in a quiet setting, so she gets to go the lake and winery tours with a few friends and their dogs.
Now my puppy Nix, he is only 13 months. We did a few events this year, but he is getting older, less puppyish. So this year I will have to expose him carefully so I can judge his reaction. If I deem him not safe, he won't get to continue going or get to go to bigger events. The first few events this spring, I will be be overly diligent and watching his body language. And I have zero problem telling people not to touch him. If and when I deem him trustworthy, then I will take him to events known to have children. While I expect parents to watch their children, kids are kids and many parents assume if the dog is out at big public event then they are safe. Whether this is right or not. It is my job to make sure I don't contribute to a problem. So yes, I expect, if I am relaxed, that my dog allow a stranger to pet them,
Or a child to hug them. That said, I am always diligent, and if I see a kid coming over, I greet them and turn my dogs back to them, so they don't charge the dogs face. Then, once I know the dog is calm I allow kisses.
I never force my dog. If they seem uncomfortable, I remove them from the stimulus. We go on a walk, I put them in the car, we hide and smoke a cigarette(well I smoke)
Not every dog can be like that, it is up to the owner to read and understand their dog. And not force them into a situation that is dangerous. It does not mean the dog is a bad dog.
I don't expect every dog to like strangers in their face. It's very rude. I do expect owners to KNOW this about their dog and mitigate the situation so that the dog does not bite anyone.
If you know your dog does not like strangers in their close proximity, don't take them to events with an uncontrollable element.
But at home, inside the family, that same dog better accept anything.

I always stick my hands in my dogs food bowls, I have done a really good job at making sure i can take anything away from them (not like i go around yanking things away) but if i ever needed to take something they were not supposed to have i can with no problems. I have also micro managed shilohs food problem (she was food aggressive with other dogs bad!) i put her in a crate for the first long while then i moved dexters food bowl closer and closer to the outside of the crate, and now well, she eats out of the crate beside Dexter no issues and she even shares the plate lickings with them. I also fixed the weird water thing she had going on by adding a third water bowl to the basement who knew one more water bowl was the trick.
Honestly though, i cant really say they would not take a chunk out of a random person for sticking their hands in their food, or removing something from their mouth. I also cant say i would trust either of the boys to tolerate a running screaming toddler, maybe shiloh because as i have said before she just adores and thinks people are king.
I also feel that i should beable to give my dog a hug or kiss anytime i want, and i do! sorry if i am off topic here im tired tonight.
We dont have running screaming toddlers all of the kids are over 10 and they are boys so most of the time they are not even interested in the dogs, infact we have to pay them to walk the dogs, the dogs were a novelty that wore off a long time ago and was replaced by call of duty black ops.

how would you make it legal??
if i was to build a car from scratch, what would i have to do to make it street legal,or get a title. i know it might differ from state to state, but i need some-one to point me in the right direction.
i found this info searching around
is that it :D
thanks for the info
Simply put for Texans:
Go to your local DMV office and speak to someone about this. There is a Builder's Title Package available which explains all the procedures and includes all the forms which are necessary to title your home-built car.
There may be other packages for Kit type cars. Ask.
Remember, these people are there to serve you, if someone says they don't know, ask to speak to someone who does know.
This is in accordance with NSRA:
1. HORN: Electric only.
2. SPEED INDICATOR: Speedometer or calibrated tachometer at 55 mph
3. REAR VIEW MIRROR: One inside or outside on driver's side of vehicle.
4. GLASS: Must be safety plate.
5. LIGHTING: Hi-beam; low-beam; tail; brake; license.
6. WINDSHIELD WIPER: Electric or vacuum operated.
7. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LOCKOUT: Neutral and/or park start only.
8. TIRES: Minimum 3/32 tread acceptable. Must meet D.O.T. specifications .
9. STEERING: No excessive "play" (2" radius max.) or binding; system must be safely mounted.
10. THROTTLE LINKAGE: Must not travel past center, return spring required.
11. FUEL SYSTEM: CHECK VENT ON TRUNK AND INTERIOR MOUNTED TANKS; no clear, plastic lines allowed. No leaks.
12. EXHAUST SYSTEM: NO LEAKS. Must pass rear edge of front door and exit exhaust away from vehicle.
13. SELF-ALIGNING ROD END BEARINGS: Check for fractures, insert sloppiness or binding.
14. SHOCK ABSORBERS: One per wheel, no leaks, 2" travel in each direction.
15. BRAKES: Four-wheel brakes, no leaks, check brake pedal travel, no copper tubing, check length of flexible lines.

21. SELF-ALIGNING ROD END BEARINGS: Ball should have 1/8 inch spacer on each side of the ball if there is any misalignment. Rod ends should not have more than 10° misalignment. ROD ENDS and 4 BAR-PARALLEL RADIUS ROD SYSTEM rubber bushed ends should have a safety washer at least the same outside diameter as the housing or larger.
22. BRAKE LINES: Should be safely mounted and routed.
23. CHASSIS FASTENERS: Self-locking nuts, lock-washers, safety wire, or cotter pins.
FOR YOUR SAFETY: fire extinguisher in driver/passenger compartment, seat belts, a third brake light and a dual master cylinder.
If the car resembles another car get a title and tags from another car and title it as that.Whos gonna know its not an extremly modified car.
A freind of mine hand built from 7 diferant body types,a roadster and is gonna title it a a Model A.
In Virgina, according to DMV, a "street Rod" is titled as the vehicle it "most Closely resembles". DMV will issue a VIN for the vehicle and license it after an inspection of the vehicle by a DMV representative. It does have to pass a state safety inspection.
thanks for the replies.
Somewhere in your Texas MV department there will be a list of legal requirements for vehicles, even under a street rod or specially constructed vehicle classification. Here in PA, it seems like it is several miles long and includes such highlights as minimum windshield height, percentage of the tires that must be covered by the fenders (no highboys in Pennsylvania) , fuel tank locations, safety features etc. It is good to know these things first-it would be sad to build a fine car with a 6.75" windshield and find out your state law mandated 7".
