Frank may have meant 260v, not 460 (typo/fat-finger?)... 460 wouldn't have even been electrically possible using the 700vct transformer and the power supply circuitry of the original. (The screen voltage is taken off the B+ through a 20k ww resistor to one of the 20uF 4-section filter cap sections.)
With a Hammond 273BX and 5U4 rectifier, I'm measuring 425v at the 807 plates and 240v on the screens with only one alteration of the original schematic - the addition of a 36k 2w bleeder to ground on the screen line, just upstream from the 100-ohm screen resistors. That's a change I had to make earlier when I used a 750v transformer from an old Williamson amp and found the screen V too high, and had to modify the circuit to drop it. I liked the result, as it provides some extra regulation for the screens, but it works fine without the bleeder, too.

Ot pt choke - transformers / heavy iron
Hi Jonathan!
Last winter I found the sweetest power transformer: New In Box never used 1950's Hammond 273BX. Came with the original manual, 30$ from the guy!!! It's got the old matt black Crinkle finish on it, and the metal badge logo on the front. It's B+ tap is 350V per side (push-pull) and centertapped, and I can get around 175ma maximum current draw. The new ones that Hammond makes get around 201ma. max.
For the Output transformer, I like the Hammond 1650PP. It is a special 10lbs Potted Transformer, Primary Impedance 6,600 c.t., 60 Watts power rating, 200ma MAX DC per side, 4-8-16 Ohms speakers, and is listed as useful for 807/6L6/5881/KT88/EL34/6146B/6550B tubes. Since the output transformer's inputs are fed from the 807's plates, I looked up the 807 tube specs from RCA. Their spec sheet for the 807 tube (http://sarris.info/main/files/807rca.pdf) indicates that the MAX DC Current for the plate is around 125ma., so I think that if this OT handles up to 200ma, we're okay.
It would be interesting to know what other users have selected for their build(s). Edcor do make some very nice options.
Here's also some ideas for the chokes needed for the 25L15. It would be great to hear what others have chosen for their build(s):
Needed: 200ma 1.5H 90 ohms and 70ma 15H 90 ohms
Stancor: 200ma 1.5H 85ohms - model C-2327 and 75ma 15H 400ohms - model C-1002
Hammond: 200ma 1.5H 56ohms 400V - model 156R and 75ma 15H 411ohms 400v - model 1

Screen (Grid #2 - PIN #3) Voltage
Hi again Jonathan!
Yes, 460V is way too much. But if you look at the schematics, the B+ coming in to the screens (Grid #2 - PIN #3), has a resistor going to each screen. There are always a set of identical valued 1 Watt resistors here. I have a few schematics, some indicate a pair of 100 Ohms, others show 470 Ohms (any ideas on what was used originally?). Either way, doesnt the voltage divide itself? that is to say, 230V X 2 = 460V. As you say, the RCA Data Sheet indicates that the Grid #2 (screens) can handle up to 300V, and the plates can handle up to 750V!! See the photo on this posting for the Data Sheet.
Apologies for any confusion this may have caused, and I always more than welcome any corrections to anything that I may post in error.
Thank you,

Hi Frank,
That is a beautifully clear image of the Bob Crooks schematic you just gave us a cutout of. Be a sport and post the whole image would you please,
Thanks Ben.

Bobo crooks standel 25l15 schematic
Hi Ben,
Not a problem! I thought that most people already had the full schematic from one of my many other postings.
Posted here now is the rare 1953 version of the schematic.
Also, find 2 versions (0.3 & 0.8) of the same schematic cleaned up by a friend.

Ben, be cautious with these schematics - the "original" has a few errors, and the "cleaned-up" versions have many. Case in point: the balance pot in the 807 input circuit has nothing to do with the preamp filaments; it is there to balance the idle current on imperfectly-matched 807's. Many of the parts values are way out of line - the 100k's on either end of the 100-ohm balance pot were (and should be) 100 ohms; I doubt if it'd even work with 100k's... The cathode bias resistor (nominally 68 ohm 3w) may need to be slightly higher or lower, but probably not as high as the 180-200 ohms suggested in the "new" drawing. On the original drawing, the 6-pin Jones plug is wired incorrectly (the way it's shown, both ends of the preamp filaments would be at ground - they're really connected to pins 5-6. Pins 3 & 4 are for B+ and ground. The pinout of the 807s is wrong. I could go on...
But if you know what you're doing, you'll recognize a lot of these "mistakes". The problem is that when you find an obvious error on a schematic, you can't always be sure of the correct wiring. I've never been able to determine if those alleged "original Bob Crooks" schematics (I found copies about 6 years ago and realized I couldn't build an amp from them as drawn) are simply fakes or whether Bob inserted the errors purposely to prevent others from stealing his design. Based on what I've read, and how he started encapsulating portions of his later solid-state amps in color-coded "modules" to further disguise his schematics, I suspect it's the latter.
The only schematic of a 25L15 that I trust is one "reverse-engineered" from one of the original amps, and from which an amp that cannot be distinguished from the original has been built.

Hi. New member here. Sorry to butt in but... this is a great post! Thank you for sharing all the info. This is a very cool site, indeed, and the Standel amp is something that I find very interesting.
Oh, someone said way back that Wes Montgomery used a Standel? I think this is incorrect. In fact, his favorite recording amp was a Fender Tweed Deluxe with an alnico Jensen according to Wolfe Marshall. I have to go with that because his tone was FAT, not what I would call Standel tone at all.
Anyway, great site and great post!

I have read that Wes said solid state is the way to go for jazz players and i think i have seen photo of him with Standel amp.Oh and the Fat tone comes from his thumb.

My Cabinet Is Complete
Make sure you're sitting down.... this is one of the nicest amps I've ever seen in my life. I commissioned a good friend of mine (t h a n k y o u m y f r i e n d !!) for the cab & metalwork, and the results are spectacular. I installed my 1954 JBL D-130 speaker the night the cab arrived. Now for the electronics!

That is a great looking cab, IMHO even nicer than an original Standell. (I've only seen one from afar..) Awesome!

Erik Seidel: From Instant WSOP Hit to King of the Six-Figure Score
Erik Seidel was an instant hit at the World Series of Poker.
In the 1988 Main Event, his first major poker tournament, Seidel finished second to Johnny Chan.
Adding to his future legacy the tournament's final hand was later immortalized in the movie Rounders.
Seidel's early success continued with his next three WSOP cashes including another runner-up and two titles.
Now 15 years later Seidel's total WSOP bracelet count sits at 8, putting him sixth overall on the all-time list.
Already a WSOP legend Seidel's recent success, however, has shifted to exclusive high-roller tournaments around the world.
High Rollers "Really Aren't That Different"
Since his last WSOP victory in 2007 Seidel has cashed in 11 tournaments with a $25k buy-in or higher for $8 million in payouts.
When asked about his success in the bigger tournaments, Seidel doesn't see much different than regular tournaments besides his opponents' general skill level.
"I think after playing them you get a sense of the structure and you do get a feel for the players a little bit," Seidel said.
"They really aren't that different from other tournaments. You just generally are up against a higher quality of player."
With his history of high-roller success it's no surprise that Seidel is set to play in this summer's $1,000,000 buy-in Big One for One Drop.
He entered the inaugural event in 2012 but was unable to make it through the first day after losing a coin flip against eventual winner Antonio Esfandiari.
Young Guys Create More Volatility
The confirmed list of players in this year's tournament includes a large number of top young players and a smaller group of deep-pocketed businessmen.
Dan "Jungleman12" Cates, Vanessa Selbst, Doug Polk, Dan Colman and 2012 WSOP Main Event champ Greg Merson are just a few playing in their first Big One along with several still-to-be-named businessmen.
Seidel's attention is more on the accomplished pros than those businessmen looking for a high-stakes gamble. They're the tougher competition, even if the businessmen can be unpredictable.
"They're all tough; it's just a different adjustment for everybody," Seidel said. "The young guys definitely put the heat on you, they certainly create more volatility.
"They're very tough to play against."
Only five players own more WSOP titles than Seidel and few can match his results in the most expensive tournaments.
With 42 results of six-figures and higher over his career, Seidel is clearly a favorite every time he takes a seat.
Follow along live right here on PokerListings starting June 29 as Seidel takes another shot at the Big One title and a ninth bracelet.

Best Cricketers of all Time
The Top Ten
No doubt Tendulkar is the best cricketer of all time, he is the god of cricket, I think don bradman is also a great cricket but when compare with sachin he is no match to him, of course bradman played with no helmet on the head but at that time bowlers are not bowled such fast to him and also pitch conditions are batting friendly and fielding standards are improved a lot better when compared with olden days. Even the bradman praises his batting
A great cricketers have one or two records in their names but tendulkar breaks all the records made by them so sachin = all the great cricketers.
In india sachin is god and cricket is a religion and this religion spreads all over the world by the god sachin tendulkar.
Even great players like lara, warne and hayden etc worship him as a god of cricket
He starts his cricket carrer at the age of 16 and he faces all time great bowlers of world at that time with no fear and it shows greatness of a greatman
Don Bradman may have been good but think of it this way. When that guy was playing bowlers had no techineque, they just tried to hit the stumps or whatever. And he only played test matches against Australia. But Sachin, come on the guy played much more teams and faced much more bowlers. and he has bashed them all
Sachin means cricket and Cricket means Sachin. Jai Hind!
As one would like, he is the living University of cricket and others are students of that University.
HE'S THE BEST!V 121 Comments
bradman the best ever he had a batting average of 99.86 and no one is even close and he has a cricket bat that is worth 14,999 dollars he does hold the record for highest batting average check guiness world records 2010 69 years and counting NO ONE WILL EVER BE BETTER THAN HIM
Bradman was excellent despite having really only played against England mostly. He was a ruthless captain particularly on the 1948 tour to England. He wasn't in the best of health generally but what a player. He was quick on his feet and had a great drive. He also played on pitches not covered so again enough said.
Bradman can't be compare with any other batsmen irrespective of any era.
Nobody can compare his:
Batting average
Facing Bodyline series
One of the best Captain
Reached average of 50 with his 3rd innings, and stayed above 50 for the rest of his career
Scored 309 in one day
More runs than opponents. At the Gabba in 1947/48, Bradman scored 185, while India was bowled out for 58 and 98, so losing to Bradman by an innings
He was run out only once - abhay_ibs
Great Cricketer!V 31 Comments
He is the best captain of Pakistan ever I have seen. He has the world record of 100 runs of 37 balls. That's why we called him boom boom. I am the biggest fan of shahid afridi. From my childhood I like him. Shahid vai we like you.
Great player... He still holds the record of fastest century with over 6000 runs in ODIs & over 300 wickets. He displayed a very impressive bowling performance in world cup 2011 as well.
Afridi Lagging behind any other cricketer on earth is like saying the sun rises from the west instead of the east. He is not only a marvel at his skill but an excellent sportsman, gentleman and all rounder not only in all formats of the game but of his life too. The most unorthodox entry in cricket and certainly the most entertaining one.

One of the best spin bowler the world has ever seen. His performances have made Australia the best cricketing nation of the world he will be remembered as the best spin bowler ever and will be a inspiration for teen cricketers
Ha no doubt the best legspinner in the world cricket arena. The man who has bowled the Ball of the century. Undoubtedly he is the best ever spinner anyone can see!
Brilliant player no doubt and magic to watch. Pity he never scored that century but footage shows he was dismissed on a no ball. His bowling was all class.
Should be #3 or #2 behind bradman - micahisthebestV 8 Comments
he has the highest individual score the world record in test and first clao and is also a match winner, one of the greatest batsman ever
Lara is undoubtedly the best, his records are proof.
He was just the best, and his record speaks for it self. He help make west indies better and got the hiestest indevidual score not once but two times, who can beat that mabe another west Indian
He is good but not as don bradman luccha mentalV 6 Comments
He never wore a helmet and played in an era of great fast bowling, when fast bowlers were not limited to 1 bouncer an over. Had a Test Batting ave. Of 50 and a strike rate of 70. An absolute fearless genius unlike the modern batmen covered in full armor.
West indian master piece batsmens, whom was always a nightmare for bowlers, his one hand contributions made a great part of Caribbean dominance at 1975-1983
Got every bowlers and fielders tired by his amazing batting

Intelligent, handsome and simpl
He is superb. He should be the captain of Indian team for the next 1000 yrs.
MS Dhoni is the best captain in worldV 41 Comments
The greatest because he made heaps of runs and competed with sachin while being a captain. Sachin was never a good captain. He wilts under pressure. He scores when all is well. Ponting made century is world cup final. Sachin can never handle pressure.
this list sucks... ricky ponting should be on the top... he is easily better than sachin... and who the hell puts afridi in top 10 he should be the last one... improve it man...
Surely ponting should be on the top 3. He is probably the best captain for the Aussies
Amazing batsmanV 5 Comments
He is such a marvelous player. I think no player can bat like him. We canot see a best batsmen after him

Have a damaged dual mirror (top one heated) on a 2010 F250. See 4 studs behind rubber hole plugs and small plastic trim piece at front top side of window. Know it is heated but don't know if it has memory or not. Has dual amber turn signal and side marker lights.
2 questions:
How do you get to the mirror connector which looks like it is inside the door panel. If you have to remove the door trim panel how do you do that?
How do you determine whether it has memory or other features? The using the VIN for this mirror on the Ford parts website lists different mirrors, with memory, telescoping, etc. Know sometimes there is a parts label or sticker on the back of the mirror but don't want to remove 4 nuts from the studs and be in trouble because I can't get to the electrical connector.

*Ladyfest is a non-profit festival which presents and supports the creative talents of professional and amateur female acts in our community, including performances and workshops. The aim of the festival is to celebrate women's creative talents and to raise awareness of the underrepresented and marginalised nature of women's creative efforts. Both men and women, students and locals, are very welcome to be involved in organising our events, but we feel that to demonstrate the underrepresentation of women's acts in cultural activities the performances ought to be women-only, or majority-women if not possible.*

Haskell had once done work for FedEx but not since January, the company said in a statement.
After Haskell left the home, the badly wounded teenage girl contacted authorities, telling them the gunman was planning to shoot other family members, Hickman said.
Police located Haskell's car and a low-speed chase ensued, ending in a cul-de-sac, Hickman said. A standoff lasted more than three hours before Haskell exited the car, sank to his knees and surrendered.
Online jail records did not list an attorney for Haskell.
His divorce decree issued in February shows that Haskell and Melanie Kaye Haskell were married in 2002 in Orange County, California. They separated in June 2013.

House Republicans Question Obama's Advisers Roles in 54.5 MPG Fuel Standard Development
Tiffany Kaiser

Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.)
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) found that White House advisers had a great deal to do with the writing of the rules
Last week,
30 U.S. senators
(29 of which were Democrats) gave President Barack Obama their support for the 54.5 mpg fuel standard by 2025. However, House Republicans still had a bone to pick with these new rules.
The new Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) proposal, which was introduced by the Obama administration, the state of California and major automakers, aims to increase the average fuel economy of cars and light trucks sold in the U.S. to 54.5 mpg by 2025 in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and the U.S.' dependency on foreign oil.
When the new rules were initially proposed last year,
major automakers
like Ford Motor Co., General Motors Co. and Chrysler backed it. However, the standard had some strong opposition from the National Automobile Dealers Association (NADA), who said the new rules would tack
an extra $5,000 to the sticker price
of new vehicles in 2025, as well as Republicans who worked to block the standard last fall because they believed that it would regulate many new vehicles that sell for under $15,000 entirely out of existence.
Now, despite the rules getting the green light from 30 U.S. senators,
House Republicans still have beef with the new rules
. More specifically, GOP has been looking into how involved Obama's advisers were in the development of the new 2017-2025 fuel efficiency standards.
Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) said he investigated Obama's advisers' involvement last August when speaking to White House Counsel Kathryn Ruemmler.
"Your response seemed to imply that the Executive Office of the President was not significantly involved in the development of these fuel economy/greenhouse gas emissions standards," Issa wrote to Ruemmler.
As it turns out, Issa's investigation discovered that there was indeed substantial participation in the development of the new standards by the White House's Office of Management and Budget, Domestic Policy Council, National Economic Council and Council of Economic Quality.
Ron Bloom, a White House adviser under the Obama administration, spent weeks trying to negotiate with automakers for support regarding the
54.5 mpg by 2025 standard
. Bloom also spoke with lobbyists daily in July 2011, ad former White House Chief of Staff Bill Daley met with Ford CEO Alan Mulally.
A finalized version of the rules is due this summer.

Right from the exciting blue lines of the positive pregnancy test, I knew I wanted a home birth. It is hard to explain why, as most people's reactions ranged from 'oh, you're brave' to 'why would you put yourself and your baby at risk?'
I should start by saying that I'm a junior doctor and have therefore had the immense privilege of witnessing birth, which in modern society is not something women get the opportunity to do.
Seeing different births cemented all my reading – birth can be a natural, calm and wonderful experience; given the right setting and support. I researched as much as I could, I asked questions and I found myself an excellent doula and hypnobirthing practitioner. My husband tolerated my 'homebirth obsession' and slowly found himself sucked in. We were planning this event, that was to become one of the most momentous of our lives, together and looking forward to it together.
Throughout our planning, we kept an open mind. We saw it as staying at home as long as possible, so as not to be disappointed if we transferred. We practiced hypnobirthing, enjoying the benefits of relaxation and better sleep there and then, rather than expecting a miracle cure for pain.
As the day approached, I became excited and believed strongly the hypnobirthing affirmations. I risk sounding like a raving hippy, but the last few weeks of pregnancy were very special for me – I felt incredibly feminine with a strong connection to my baby, who I was so looking forward to meeting.
A few days before my due date, I had signs that things were starting to happen. When I saw the midwife, she booked me for a sweep the next week, but in my head I thought 'the baby will be here by then.'
Everything at home was arranged; I wallowed in the birth pool reading my book. The towels were piled up, candles and music were at the ready. I had my final hair cut and spent the day after my due date having a lovely family picnic. At home that night I thought 'I am ready.'
Sure enough, the next morning my contractions started. I called my mum and dad to let them know. They asked if I wanted anything and I said 'cake!' They arrived early afternoon to find me bouncing on my ball with each contraction, but still quite happy. We had lunch together with me stopping mid-sentence for a contraction every 7 minutes. As the contractions increased and I started to need to breathe through them, my parents made their exit and we decided to walk up the road to see our doula, Helen.
It was early evening and we sat in Helen's living room with a cup of tea – instantly relaxed as she reminded me of my breathing and chatting of this and that. It was great to carry on with normality.
We left saying we would probably be calling on her later that night. David was amazing when we got home, he ran me a bath, lit candles and put music on. I tried to relax as much as possible, knowing it could be a long haul, but was too excited to sleep.
At midnight, I needed Helen. I had to stand swaying to deal with each contraction and felt exhausted. If I didn't stand up in time, it was much more intense. I became quite negative and needed encouragement. Helen and David ran me another bath and I lay on my side to relax with the water around me and Helen guiding each breath. I also took two paracetamol at this point.
After an hour in the bath, I came back downstairs and stood in the breeze of the fan wearing a silk sarong and rocked with each contraction. I used both hands to rub circles over my bump and imagined my hands holding my child. I was smiling through these contractions, as I felt really close to my baby and kept repeating 'as my labour progresses, I will go deeper within to my baby' from hypnobirthing.
By 3am, things had picked up. I really wanted the birth pool to be ready now! I asked to call a midwife, as I was aware that the hospital had no idea I was in labour. She came and checked me and the baby, but I declined an internal examination. I was now in established labour but coping well, so she left us to it and we could call again.
After a brief dip in the nearly full birth pool, I decided to go and lie down on the bed. David put my tens machine on and I dozed between contractions to get the rest I needed. With each contraction I took a huge in-breath then a long slow out-breath followed by a single hiccup!
I woke up at around 6am as my contractions changed and felt my body pushing down by itself. It was an incredibly overwhelming feeling of strength coming from me that I just had to go with. Helen now really motivated me to follow my body and helped me back into the birth pool before calling the midwife back again.
She came straight to us, without picking up the gas and air. When she arrived, I went against my own birth plan and requested an internal to reassure me and to break my waters. This was done in the birth pool and instantly changed my contractions from an uncomfortable pressure to a full on downward movement which was a relief.
I felt amazing in the pool – it was my own private space and I could move so freely. I changed position as I needed and went with the flow. At about 7.30am the midwife said she could just see the head. The second midwife was called and I was relieved to get the gas and air. I found it really helpful for helping me to relax between each contraction, but with hindsight it made me so relaxed that I 'missed' some contractions and didnt work with my body as effectively because of it.
Time then seemed to go on forever. I was pushing away, using a puff of gas and air between contractions to rest. The head was bobbing back after each contraction. The atmosphere got more serious as the midwives started watching the clock. I began to fear transfer and ending up with an forceps delivery.
At around 11am, after nearly 5 hours of pushing, I agreed to have standby paramedics outside and thought 'right, I've got to do this now'. Helen got me a drink and one of my Mum's cakes and I stepped up my pushing, moving into a determined squat in the water. Sure enough, the head started coming. I remember pushing away looking at David, who was watching our baby come into the world with such a proud look on his face and feeling totally connected as a family.
Just as I birthed the baby's head with an incredible feeling of release, the front door (which opens straight into our living room) was flung open and two paramedics walked in! What I yelled at them is not repeatable, but they left fairly quickly. Eden was born in the next contraction at 11.54am and David and I picked her out of the water together and held her in amazement.
We got to cuddle and murmur over her without interruption until we asked and the cord was cut. Eden got skin to skin with Daddy in the armchair whilst I was checked out on the sofa. I didn't have any tears which was a great relief. We just had to wait for the placenta whilst Eden had her first breastfeed. Unfortunately, I then lost quite a bit of blood and took a short trip to hospital for blood tests and IV fluids in an ambulance, whilst poor David had a baptism of fire dressing the baby and fitting the car seat! We were home within a few hours and David tucked me up in bed with Eden and got us Chinese takeaway! Our life as a family started right there.
Eden's birth was an amazing event that I look back on positively. However, I actually feel quite guilty, and find myself not sharing my story, when other mums relate more negative experiences. But hopefully my story here may inspire families-to-be as they prepare for a new arrival. Birth really can be a natural, calm and wonderful experience; given the right setting and support.

Thanks for the suggestion... it actually contained the "premium" dems for USA/Canada that are active in nextgen! I had tried various other dems from other links, but they always showed red(inactive). I thought I would have to resort to "default"(navigator's) dems but no more.
I vote to have the torrent FRONT page, if you can't find a dem to work for you in THIS torrent, I dont know what to say!
i can not display dem of map tomtom_thailand_2015.Q3
you can also find dem files here-> This post requires you to click the "LIKE this post" button and hit F5 to read this content.
I have IGO Primo 2.4 installed and just put in the Australian dem file and set Relief to on, but in the map all I get is very faint contour colours? I noticed when I press the relief buttons it flashes the green colour on the map!
Can someone tell me how to fix this.

Mora ready for 'chess match' against Proksa
On June 28th, former WBC super welterweight champion Sergio "The Latin Snake" Mora will take on former middleweight world title challenger Grzegorz Proksa (29-2, 21 KOs) at Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida. The show, which will headline ESPN's Friday Night Fights. Mora (23-3-2, 7 KOs) of East Los Angeles, California expects a great fight and a tough challenge from the former European Middleweight champion. "Proksa is a solid fighter who fights with a lot of confidence", said Mora. "We have similar styles so it should be a chess match. Because we both have a great will to win, it should make for an excellent fight."
Mora feels he has been on the wrong end of decisions with Brian Vera and a draw with Shane Mosley knows that judging of the fight is very important and can have huge implications in a fighter's career. "I hope the real winner gets the decisions. I felt I was wronged in the Vera fight and that spring boarded him to a fight with Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. I just hope the judges clearly see who is the effective aggressor, ring general and who has the better defense on June 28th."
Mora, who rose to fame by winning the Inaugural "Contender" competition has been a little under the radar since his draw with Mosley in 2010. "I don't know why that has been. An opponent has never beaten me up. I just never have had a promoter or network to build me. I come to win and what I have learned is that I have to evolve with the game to become relevant. This fight is a re-establishment fight for me. This is my 5th fight on ESPN and I am glad to be back and ready to put on a show."

From the western desert to its Wyoming and Colorado borders, central Utah received fresh snow early Tuesday, ranging from an inch or two in the valleys to 4-5 inches in the mountains.
The southern Wasatch Range especially was affected and remained under a Winter Weather Advisory into Tuesday evening.
That fresh snow fell on already ice-packed road surfaces, making for more than a few commuter headaches. The Utah Highway Patrol and local law enforcement agencies reported dozens of minor crashes and slideoffs.
Eastbound semi-trailer rigs were being required to don tire chains to traverse Parleys Canyon, while both Big and Little Cottonwood canyons were restricted to four-wheel drive and chained vehicles.

Kitchen Refacing
Has anyone ever refaced their kitchen cabinets themselves? Any tips or tricks..
I do remodelling and do this about every other month. Check out Quality Doors by MASCO. They have a whole system that's easy, comes with instructions and a video and they can do 90% of the work (like inletting the doors for euro hinges). The toughest part is making sure that the cabinets are 100% clean to apply the coverings. Also remember to trim the coverings WITH the grain not against it, they leave this part out on the vid. Steve

Hi folks.
Thanks for all of the great advice you've offered so far. I have another question for you.
How do you suggest breaking in new cotton CDs and PUL covers? How many washes? Another forum suggests breaking in using Dawn dishwashing liquid. Has anyone here tried that - and is that necessary, or is laundry detergent ok (Charlie's Soap, etc)?
PUL covers only need a quick wash in regular detergent to prep. Cotton CD need 5-8 washes in HOT water to prep. You can use either Dawn or your reg diaper detergent to wash them. Some use no detergent to prep but it may take more washes to get all the natural oils out.
Here is blog about prepping diapers. http://www.29diapers.com/2010/08/31/how-to-prep-your-cloth-diapers-for-use/
Good luck.
It's a bit of a waste of water and time IMHO to wash them separately for so many washes. I would just throw them in with your regular laundry when you have a small load to do - hot or cold (cold works fine - just may take more total washes to get to full absorbency). And when you need to start using them just start using them whether or not they've been fully "prepped." They won't be at their full absorbency until they've been washed 5-8 times, but what's the big deal? Newborns won't be using the full capacity of the diaper for the first few weeks anyway. When you're switching to larger sizes you can continue to use the old "fully prepped" diapers for times when you need that full absorbency, using the new unprepped diapers only during the day when you're at home, and slowly switch over to using only the new diapers as they get broken in. That's what's worked for us. I hate wasting water - especially hot water - saving resources is the whole reason we're doing CDs to start with!

text: Bi-Partisan Letter to TSA with 133 Signatures Calls for Recognition of Flight Attendant Concerns WASHINGTON, March 22, 2013 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The Coalition of Flight Attendant Unions, representing 90,000 Flight Attendants, applauds Congressmen Eric Swalwell (D-CA), Michael Grimm (R-NY) and Bennie Thompson (D-MS) for taking the lead by authoring a letter to TSA Administrator John Pistole about the abrupt policy change allowing dangerous items in the aircraft cabin. The letter expresses serious concerns about the process used to determine a policy change "without any formal engagement with stakeholders impacted by this policy, including our frontline workers aboard flights, the crewmembers." (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110302/DC58223LOGO) One of the lead co-sponsors, former FBI Special Agent and U.S. Marine, Congressman Michael Grimm stated, "This level of congressional opposition should serve as a wake-up call to TSA. The decision to lift the ban on knives was done without any rhyme or reason and without consulting stakeholders, like members of Congress, flight attendants and air marshals and the general public. I don't know which is more idiotic — the policy or the process." The bi-partisan letter states in part, "A failure to engage all relevant stakeholders is unfortunate, in light of existing processes and mechanisms in place to garner input from frontline workers, such as the Aviation Security Advisory Committee (ASAC), which has played a critical role in the development of security policies and protocols, such as the Final Rule on Air Cargo Security." Finally, it calls on the TSA Administrator to, "maintain knives and sporting equipment on the list of prohibited items until a process of formal consultation is conducted with all stakeholders through the ASAC." Flight Attendants are tremendously grateful for the swift, commanding support of Congress. The Coalition of Flight Attendant Unions now turns its focus to building the co-sponsor list for the bi-partisan No Knives Act of 2013, H.R. 1093, introduced by Congressmen Ed Markey (D-MA) and Michael Grimm (R-NY) and continues to press for signatures on the White House petition at www.NoKnivesOnPlanes.com. The Coalition also began airport leafleting yesterday to raise passenger awareness and encourage public opposition to the abrupt policy change. Air Marshals, Pilots, Transportation Security Officers and airline CEOs agree with Flight Attendants. The people on the front lines of aviation security know this is a bad idea. Flight Attendants will continue to escalate our opposition until common sense prevails and the ban on knives is maintained.

I've been wondering about these Peeks–how many people are retaining the service after a few months? Any stats floating around?
I just noticed that.
We were at Target where my wife thought for some reason they might have a decent MP3 player (wrong) when I saw 'em up on the peg.
If I didn't already carry a phone that lets me ignore emails I'd SO be into ignoring 'em on one of these.
WAAAAA! Want Peek in Canada!!
Canadians are moving from minorly miffed to aggravated about the increasing number of devices that just don't come north.
I see these possibilities (with Likelihood Scores):
1) Peek doesn't care. (1/10)
2) Peek is busy, and is focussing on what they can handle in their core market (5/10)
3) Peek has the time, but just can't justify the extra work right now for what is a small chunk of their current in-market potential (6/10)
3) Canada has only one GSM provider, and Peek would have to badly break their market model on the current suggested terms with that provider (8/10)
4) Canada has only one GSM provider, and they could offer Peek a workable deal, but that GSM provider figures it would cannibalize their existing revenue streams to let people do cheap email (8/10)
Any other suggestions from Canadians?
Hey guys — I work for Peek and can say yes people are sticking around…can't share the ##s though 🙂

Euro, shares recover as European worries recede
By Richard Hubbard
LONDON (Reuters) - European shares, oil and the euro bounced back on Tuesday from a selloff caused by rising political risks in southern Europe, as data confirmed the region's economy is showing signs of recovery.
The euro, which had taken the brunt of the selling and fallen from a high of over $1.37 at the end of last week to under $1.35 on Monday, rose 0.3 percent to trade at $1.3560.
European shares followed a similar path, recovering from the Monday sell off, while U.S. stock index futures indicated Wall Street would rebound from its worst daily session since November when trading resumed later on Tuesday.
Analysts saw the market's gyrations as a necessary stage in a rally linked to signs of increasing euro zone economic stability and an improving global outlook, underpinned by the easier monetary policies of major central banks.
"Our working hypothesis remains that, after the correction, the trends in place before will continue, as the two main drivers are still there - namely central banks continuing to inject liquidity and more and more proof of an economic recovery," said Philippe Gijsels, head of research at BNP Paribas Fortis Global Markets in Brussels.
The markets regained their composure on Tuesday after data confirmed the euro zone's still struggling economy was starting to turn around.
Markit's Eurozone Composite PMI, which gauges business activity across thousands of companies and is seen as good gauge of future growth, rose in January to a 10-month high of 48.6 - though this still means the region's economy is contracting.
"The euro zone is showing clear signs of healing, with the downturn easing sharply in January and the region moving closer to stabilization in the first quarter," said Chris Williamson, chief economist at Markit. Continued...

The annual Ballon D'Or vote for the world's best player is one of the very few of these rapidly multiplying awards that has managed to hold my interest year after year.
Should you not know, it's the world's journalists who do the voting -- one expert from each of 96 countries. And I have to say they do a pretty good job. By which I mean, of course, that I generally agree with their choice. Underlying my satisfaction is the fact that the players chosen are almost always creative players and/or goalscorers.
That I like. But there is the awkward fact that for the first 40 years of its existence -- from 1956 through 1995 -- the Ballon D'Or was limited to European players. Yes, the occasional foreigner did win the award, but only after he'd been naturalized -- Alfredo Di Stefano became a Spaniard and won in 1957 and 1959, while Omar Sivori took Italian citizenship and won in 1961.
The omission of South Americans looks pretty ludicrous now, for these were the years when Brazil was producing a goodly share of the world's greatest players -- including, Pele, Garrincha, Coutinho, and Carlos Alberto. And, of course, the exclusion of South Americans went on long enough to exclude Diego Maradona.
The Ballon was finally opened up to any player, playing anywhere, in 2007. Not that it has made much difference -- the winners continue to belong to the exclusive set who play for the rich European clubs.
Another wholesome aspect of the selections is that so far -- and I'm keeping my fingers crossed -- the award has only once in its 64 years gone to a goalkeeper -- and you have to go back to 1963 for that, when the Russian Lev Yashin was the winner.
Even better -- take a look to see how often a defender has won. Amazingly -- by my count -- it's only once, and that was in 2006 when Italy's Fabio Cannavaro took the honor. Yes, Franz Beckenbauer won in 1972 and 1976, but I cannot classify Beckenbauer as an out and out defender, not by any means.
And, of course, there have been some odd choices. Not many, but -- I mean, Igor Belanov in 1986? Oleg Blokhin in 1975?
But these are the world's journalists doing the selecting, and what the hell do they know? It is surely to be expected that journalists would pick the glamour boys of the sport, the home-run hitters so to speak, the ones who drive the Cadillacs.
You can imagine that if it were the coaches doing the picking, the winners would be different -- because, well, they know more. Or always claim to.
And this is what makes the Ballon D'Or such a fascinating exercise. Because, since 1991, we have had another "world player" award -- one where it is precisely the coaches, the coaches of the world's national teams, who vote. They do so, along with a group of players -- the captains of the national teams -- to produce FIFA's World Player of the Year.
And what do you know -- of the 18 awards that have so far overlapped, the same player has been voted top in both polls on 11 occasions.
In fact, the coaches seem to have shown more appreciation of artistry -- so often derided as showmanship -- than the journalists. Ronaldinho, surely the very embodiment of soccer artistry and flair, has won the coaches' FIFA award twice; but only once did the journalists elect him.
On the face of it, this is extremely encouraging, but I'm not at all sure how much to read into it. It's quite possible that inside every coach reside the contradictory personalities of the Dr. Jekylls who vote in polls, and the Mr. Hydes who have to win games.
Last year, the two polls came as close as they can get when both polls were topped by Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Fernando Torres in that order. This year, the Ballon D'Or has Messi, Ronaldo and Xavi.
Coming up shortly, I think we'll see the coaching Jekylls again as they come pretty close to that ranking. How can they possibly not agree with the Ballon D'Or journalists in electing Lionel Messi as the world's best? Unthinkable.
Messi is the first Argentine to win the award -- as an Argentine, that is. The great Di Stefano won as a Spaniard, Sivori as an Italian. And Maradona -- well, where Maradona was shut out, Messi is now warmly welcomed, another short, left-footed Argentine with sublime ball skills. The beauty is that Messi is only 22 years old so we surely haven't seen the best of him yet. We have perhaps another decade of magic and superb artistry from this little wizard, and that is a wonderful joy to contemplate.
Will Messi be the best ever, then? Will he surpass Pele and Maradona and Cruyff and Platini? Quite possible, I'd say. But there is an ominous caveat. Will Messi be allowed to play the way he can, in a sport that increasingly permits violence and physical play to dominate? That tolerance -- most of it -- comes with the compliance of the coaching Hydes -- the very same ones who vote for Messi. The very ones who were recently accused by the FIFA medical officer, surveying the sport's growing injury carnage, of sending their players on to the field "as if they go to war."
Let us hope Messi triumphs ... after all, whatever kind of a sport would it be that would not do everything it can to ensure the health and safety of its brightest jewel?
