> Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound
Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound
Restore paint the old-fashioned way!
Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound is a hand-applied true paint compound that removes imperfections from all types of paint. This is a great solution for those who detail by hand. You can still achieve remarkable paint correction without a polisher.
Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound uses diminishing abrasive technology, meaning the tiny abrasives break down gradually as you rub. Diminishing abrasives eliminate the scouring effect you used to get from old rubbing compounds. Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound is formulated to level imperfections and leave a smooth finish by hand.
Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound works well on oxidation, scratches, and stains.
It revives dull paint and restores a shine. Compare it to any other hand-applied rubbing compound and you'll be amazed! Use it on clear coats and single stage paint finishes. The diminishing abrasives make this compound easier on clear coat finishes than the rubbing compounds from years ago.
Remember, Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound is for
hand application only
. It gives hand detailers an effective option for paint correction. The
formula polishes the paint to restore the clarity of the finish, and it's so easy to use.
If you're a fan of the old-fashioned rubbing compound in a tin, upgrade to Meguiars Clear Coat Safe Rubbing Compound. It will surpass all your expectations!

possible to remove dried concrete?
1 Attachment(s)
this mixer paddle is designed and sold to mix joint compound. But, i used it to mix Quickcrete a while back and didn't clean it. Attachment 22201
i'd like to clean it off perfectly so i can use it mix, yup, joint compound. it will be for a texturing job so i can't have any trash quickcrete on the paddle. i hear even just a little bit of trash in the mudd mix can really cause problems. so it must be cleaned like it was new
what hasn't work:
several other tools were left this way after a porch job

Oh, that's it Bob; take the easy way out.:laughing:
Well, Rosco, asked for perfectly, so the new one looks like it might be Gold plated.
nap, I took it as joshin, & I was lol .
sometimes my humor is not understood so I tend to explain. Just wanted to be sure.
i think a new one is in the plans if we don't contract-out this last texturing job.
That is a nice paddle for the price.
i'll check back with this thread and search for others just in case someone has a secret to removing dried quickrete off tools. i doubt there is a secret and if there is, it should remain a secret. it is basically a way to dissolve concrete
what about muriatic acid soak?
Honestly. I'm not joking everytime I repeatedly post this. Sugar and water makes a great concrete remover.
If that really works Willie, I will owe you big time.
I'll have to try that out real soon. :thumbsup:
Ok. Nobody say anything to jomama. Willie has a fish on the hook trying the old "sugar and water" gag. When he comes back with a really lost look on his face, it's good for a laugh.
I'm thinking this is kind of like the old snipe hunting stories from when I was young.
what is the procedure? "the boss" will be canning apricots tonight or tomorrow morning. it involves boiling sugar and water. is it a similar process? maybe i sneak by with the cordless drill and paddle mixer and give it a "dip" and a quick "whirl?"
seriously though. what is the procedure with sugar and water?
after you are done waiting; remove; scrub; scrub with a wire brush; rinse
repeat as needed.
I bet now you want to know how long to wait.
You wait until...
wait for it...
until willie gets back and tells us all.:laughing:

Going in for my surgery on the 14th of March 2011. I'm in the army and was expecting to get the silicone implants placed under muscle. My PS advised me, however, that I should probably place them over the muscle because I'll have to continue doing push-ups for the remainder of my career (about 10 more years).
Anyway, just wanted to know about anyone's experiences with over/unders and working out. I teeter between a 36B and 34C and am also concerned about whether I have enough breast tissue to cover the implant so as not to look "done."
Also, I'll be taking leave to recuperate, but I'm not sure whether I'll need to inform the medical personnel at the clinic on post about the surgery. I'm in aviation and am concerned about the down-time they might force on me (no flying time, which I can't afford). Flying is a very mentally-saturating task, as opposed to a physical one. It'll be about 4 weeks before I go back to work anyway.
Any advice from anyone would be helpful. I'm a pansy when it comes to pain so that's the biggest of my concerns. Thanks everyone!


text: The Taurus catalog sure says you can. Just happen to have one handy.. My grandmother has one and loves it, as do I. I know of at least 1K rounds that have been through it and no problems. Just the normal cleaning and such. And yes, I've put +p rounds through it.

/// Are Celebrity Accounts on Private Social Media an Oxymoron? Ask Chinese Pop Star Wang Leehom.
The value of a celebrity user on a social media service is often more than an endorsement. It's not just "drink Gatorade because I say so" — but rather "follow me, and I'll let you into my life." But that doesn't exactly work on a private social network, where the whole point is intimacy and reciprocity. For instance, despite her recent endorsement of Path , Britney Spears — someone who almost everyone knows a little and very few people know well — is not necessarily a natural fit for the personal network. In order to keep within Path's limit of 150 friends, Spears's team is reportedly planning to rotate fans through the available slots. Another way private social tools might handle this weirdness is to effectively "break" themselves for celebrities — to let super users have super powers to communicate with lots of people. This week, the private mobile social network Weixin did exactly that, with one of the biggest celebrities in China, pop artist Wang Leehom. For background, the American-born singer has released 25 albums since 1995, with an eclectic musical style that's heavy on romantic ballads (see below). He's a spokesman for Coke, Nikon, Nike and others. Meanwhile, Weixin is a mobile messaging app from Tencent that has seen explosive growth in the past year , with more than 100 million users. Users can send voice, text, pictures and video updates in one-on-one or group conversations. Almost everything is private; users are limited to 20 friends, and there are no public posts. Wang Leehom is one of the most popular users of Sina Weibo, with 16 million followers , and he just performed the first solo pop concert at the Beijing Olympics venue the Bird's Nest on Saturday — for an audience of 90,000. On the occasion of the concert, Tencent expanded Weixin to allow Wang to connect to his millions of fans in a more personal way. Through a custom integration, Wang Leehom's voice, video and text updates arrive in users' inboxes, in line with their private conversations. A sample Weixin screenshot That way, when users send replies to Wang within the app, they go directly to him. Tencent had to design a Web interface for the product so Wang Leehom could deal with the volume. There's actually a Silicon Valley angle here — the whole arrangement was brokered by Andreessen Horowitz partner Connie Chan, who is a personal friend of Wang Leehom's. For now, it's exclusively available to him. This isn't a totally new idea; I've written a bit about a "voice Twitter" with celebrity users called Bubbly that's big in India and elsewhere, and is backed by Sequoia Capital. But it's particularly interesting in the recent context of the rise of mobile social apps and more private alternatives to Facebook

Lanky Armwood receiver A.J. King set a new school standard in receiving in Friday's 49-0 rout of Wharton.
A 6-foot, 155-pound junior, King established a Hawks single-game record for receiving yardage (eight catches, 178 yards, two touchdowns) against the Wildcats, Coach Sean Callahan confirmed Saturday morning. King's reception total was one shy of Chris Murray's 10-year-old school mark, Callahan added.
How long will King's record stand? Hard to say. After years of a brute, ball-control option attack, the Hawks implemented a more open "spread-gun" set when junior quarterback Josh Grady moved in from Freedom in the offseason.
Grady finished 13-for-16 for 298 yards (not quite a school record), two TDs and one interception against Wharton. Backup Tanner Emmons completed five of his six attempts for 72 yards.

Mumbai: The Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra is without any doubt one of the top leading actresses in the tinsel town film industry. With movies such as Don, Krrish, Fashion and 7 Khoon Maaf have put her on the top actresses list. By now, the super star of Bollywood has managed to star in several endorsements. This is a real statement of her celebrity in the tinsel town industry.
And now it seems that Priyanka Chopra has yet another commercial under her hat. The actress will be the new brand ambassador for the Nikon cameras. A source close to the super star Priyanka Chopra has said that officials of the company consider the actress to be simply perfect to star in their advertisement for the Nikon cameras.
From what we have been able to find out, it seems that they really consider Priyanka Chopra to be the beauty with brains. Still, until know there was not made an official announcement regarding this. However this is probably to be announced the following days.

Toshiba Unveils Trio of New "Excite" Tablets

Toshiba Excite 13
Toshiba adds more screen sizes to Excite tablet line
Toshiba has expanded its line of Excite Android tablets to include three new screen sizes. The new tablets have 13.3-inch, 10.1-inch, and 7.7-inch screens. The names of the tablets, predictably, are the Excite 10, Excite 13, and Excite 7.7. The tablets all have some common features including aluminum bodies and scratch-resistant Gorilla Glass displays. The tablets also all run Android 4.0 for the operating system.
"One size does not fit all, so we are carefully considering how and where people are using tablets and designing form factors to best suit various needs," said Carl Pinto, vice president of product development, Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Digital Products Division. "With amazingly thin and light designs, our new Excite family of tablets continues to incorporate what consumers have come to love about Toshiba tablets: essential ports for a more complete tablet computing experience plus durability that ensures they can go the distance."
The new tablets use an NVIDIA Tegra 3 processor, which are quad-core CPUs with an additional fifth core for low-power operations. Toshiba gives each of the three new tablets a five-megapixel rear camera and a two-megapixel front camera. The tablets also have integrated Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and stereo speakers.
The Excite 10 has an LED backlit screen with a resolution of 1280 x 800 and supports up to 10 points of touch at the same time. The 10-inch tablet is 0.35-inch thick, weighs 1.32 pounds, and promises 10 hours of battery life. It includes 1 GB of RAM and has integrated micro USB, micro HDMI, and a SD card slot.
The Excite 13 measures 13.3-inches diagonally and has a resolution of 1600 x 900. It has four speakers for better sound and 1 GB of memory. It promises up to 13 hours of battery life.
The Excite 7.7 uses an AMOLED display and has 1 GB of memory. The tablet is 0.3-inch thick and weighs 13.4 ounces.
All of the tablets can access Google Play and run the full array of Android apps that are available. The Excite 10 will launch in May with a 16 GB version for $449.99, 32 GB version for $529.99, and 64 GB version for $649.99. The Excite 7.7 will launch in June with a 16 GB version for $499.99 and 32 GB version for $579.99. The Excite 13 will also launch in June with a 32 GB version for $649.99 and 64 GB version for $749.99.

Hey guys.
I was wondering if some of you guys could give me some feedback. It was rejected for the following reason.
Unfortunately your submission doesn't meet our current minimum technical quality requirements for the category it was submitted to. Please consider taking some time to familiarize yourself with our current library and quality levels of popular items before resubmitting.Does this mean that the actual design isn't quality enough? Or that the amount of PSDs I upload isn't enough (4).
Here is the theme:

Thanks in advanced, Jeremy.
The design quality is more than poor. Trash it and study the currently accepted psds.
I can't tell if you're trolling or not. I thought that the design was pretty nice.
Hi ! Your design need lot of improvements before to be accepted on Themeforest…Compare you item with -> http://themeforest.net/popular_item/by_category?category=psd-templates
(Spacings, colors, fonts, originality, shadows…) You have to look at the basics and then we could be more specific…
It's just my personal opinion, best regards
Sorry to say this, but this theme look poor and like sites ten years ago. Check the new trends.
There's a lot of things that you need to improve.
1. Typography Create a hierarchy of font-sizes and stick with them.
2. Grid Make sure to use a grid. There's no excuse for not using a grid.
3. Color scheme. Red.. Purple.. Gray gradients.. well make sure you create a solid color scheme and stick with it as well.
Hope that helps

They didn't recognise him at first, beneath the grey topper and behind the dark glasses. Then a camera clicked, then a dozen more and soon everyone found themselves following Lester Piggott, the greatest living Flat jockey.
He was making his first appearance since being released from hospital following his heart attack last month and this was not one of his best timed runs, for he was 45 minutes late. "Delayed . . . traffic . . . M4 . . . airport," he mumbled. With his deafness and speech impediment Piggott, now 71, has never been an interrogator's subject of choice. His eloquence was always restricted to horse whispering.
The champions of the Flat were assembling to be photographed in aid of Peter O'Sullevan's charitable trust. Willie Carson, Kevin Darley, Frankie Dettori, Pat Eddery, Joe Mercer, Ryan Moore and Jamie Spencer had all been invited but all eyes and lenses were pointing at Piggott, the jockey with the bobbing bottom who always seemed to keep a distance from his fellows on and away from the track.
There was a suspicion that Brian Rix had also come along yesterday because there was a whiff of the Whitehall farce about the proceedings. Carson waited for Piggott but then had to rush off to do a TV piece minutes before Dettori ran in through the rain, gushing apologies.
Eventually, they all gathered in the weighing room where, apparently, Piggott said very little. When they emerged he said: "This was the first time I've been racing since coming out of hospital. It's a great idea for Peter." He denied he had come to nick another jockey's ride.
None of this matters, though, for with Piggott there are plenty willing to do the talking for him. O'Sullevan - looking more robust than the hero even though he will be 90 next year - took me to one side and, shaking his head, said: "I've never seen anyone better than Lester. He was a serious star and a highly individual one. He is one of the legends in the 300 years of the sport. He was bred for the job, of course, but he also had this absolute single-minded determination to succeed.
"He was the longest-serving athlete in history. But there was also so much devil in him. It wasn't all money." He rode a remarkable 116 winners at Royal Ascot. He won the Derby a record nine times, his first in 1954 and his last in 1983. Nijinsky, he thought, was the best of them, beating Sir Ivor by a short head. He rode his first winner at 12 and in all had 4,493 winners, including 30 Classics.
They called him the Long Fellow, because at 5ft 7½in he was tall for a Flat jockey. He looked slightly shorter yesterday. Sean Magee, his biographer, said: "Because he has this tall frame he always had to work hard to keep his weight down to 1½ stone less than it should have been. He drove wearing a bin liner with the windows up and the heating full on - there weren't many passengers."
Like many jockeys he drove at high speed, collecting almost as many tickets as winners. He is also the deliverer of some wonderfully pithy advice. "Never catch a loose horse," he said. "You could end up holding the fucking thing all day."
He also had this gem about horses that consistently hung left. "The best thing you can do is put a piece of lead in his right ear as a counter-balance . . . with a shotgun." When the trainer Jeremy Tree said he had to tell his old school everything he knew about racing and asked Lester what he should say, the maestro replied: "Tell 'em you've got flu."
He always believed that a jockey did not require instructions. "A good jockey doesn't need orders and a bad jockey couldn't carry them out anyway, so it's best to give none."
Yesterday he joshed with Carson (well, Carson joshed and Piggott was joshed with). Afterwards the now BBC commentator said: "If Lester had never been, my career would have been a lot better, wouldn't it? He analysed horses. He was a horse psychologist, really."

Serpa BMW transforms the new vehicle experience in Newmarket/Aurora
Frank Serpa, dealer principal of the Serpa Automotive Group, expresses great gratitude to the Newmarket/Aurora community, which has warmly welcomed Serpa BMW since he acquired the dealership in April 2012 from Open Road BMW.
Serpa's impact on the community has been considerable. Serpa BMW is known as the dealership that's always there for those in need, supporting charitable golf tournaments, fundraising for hospitals and other events that make a difference to the quality of life in the Newmarket/Aurora.
In addition, Serpa BMW has transformed its facility into something that is unprecedented and even unique among auto retailers in the area. It's part of a global BMW plan to extend the brand's unmatched design and engineering to the customer experience.We have added to space, installed advanced new seating areas and also created a special area for the highly prized and rare BMW M-powered vehicles, as part of our special status as an M-Certified dealership. We are very excited to have completed the updates.
Dealer principal Frank Serpa says that he plans on spending the next 25 years with Serpa Automotive Group "selling and servicing autos." Then he will pass the torch to his sons Stefano and Adriano. Already working in the dealership as General Sales Manager and Customer Promise Ambassador, Stefano Serpa is passing on the family values that the Serpa name has represented over two decades in automotive retailing. Though not in the business presently, Adriano is also a source of pride to the family: he was called to the bar in May 2014 and is currently a practicing lawyer. Please follow us on Facebook and Twitter @serpabmw.
Serpa remains proud of his roots, although he operates in the somewhat rarified atmosphere of BMW, the world's finest automobile brand. In an ascent that rarely occurs anymore, Frank Serpa rose from car cleaner and mechanic to dealer principal. Raised in a traditional family in the old College St. Italian neighbourhood, Frank absorbed the need to continue those same family values in business.
With an interest in cars beginning at a very young age, he started out truly at the bottom. He became an apprentice technician, earned an interprovincial mechanic's license and decided to work his way up.
He then organized car deliveries in a Honda dealer, worked as a service advisor in the parts department, then Sales Associate, and Assistant Manager. For his efforts, Honda awarded him a Sales Master title, and went on to become Avante Mazda's dealer principal, and then sold the dealership in 2016 after operating it for 20 years. Then in 2012, he acquired the first BMW dealership to change hands in more than a decade, a very big event in the auto world. It was quite an accomplishment, even more so for a kid from College St.
Serpa vowed to bring his unique brand of customer connection to Newmarket, which is exemplified in the motto "Respect, Trust, Enjoy." This means a transparent buying experience that results in customers enjoying the transaction so much that they will refer friends and closest family to the dealership.
Rosanna Serpa has been by Frank's side during his entire automotive adventure, which was not always easy, especially in their early days. They met at the age of 18; Frank saw her from a distance and was determined get to know Rosanna. They celebrated their 33rd wedding anniversary in 2014, a very spiritual number for both.
"There was just something special and different about Frank," Rosanna said. "It was there from a young age and he kept building on it year after year. He came very far but I knew it would happen from day one." Rosanna is also an entrepreneur in her own right, operating the luxurious hair salon, Disegno, in Toronto's stylish Forest Hill Village.
"With Frank, no means no and yes means yes," she added. "In our family, with our two sons, and with his clients, it's the same." Rosanna explained that Frank is a "determined perfectionist and an excellent motivator with a million-dollar smile." People "trust him and like him. They know he works very hard and is an honest man."
"Knowing my family will be in the automotive business for the long term is a great feeling," Serpa concluded.

Spotlight on Ohlone:
Students spend a summer in China
By Tina Karimi, Opinions editor.
Thursday, September 30, 2010—Reprinted from Monitor.
Since free market reforms were first introduced in the late70's, China's economy has expanded rapidly, transform ing the country to a bona fide superpower.
This year, China surpassed Japan in the second quarter GDP and became the world's second largest economy, be hind the United States.
Some experts estimate that China could surpass the US and become the world's larg est economy as early as 2030.
The opportunity to see China in this critical stage of transition as it ascends to economic domination was given to nine Ohlone College students.
The students: Elson Luk, Richard Le, Daniel Yang, Mark Speers, Diane Koralic, Long Nguyen, Vivian Lam, Grace Ye and Sarah Hashemi, were accepted to the Global Business Immersion excursion program in June of 2010.
The program was led by Christine Bolt, a professor of Business Administration and Technology, and was accompanied by Cynthia Katona who is a professor of English and Women's Studies.
The group spent June 1-24 in China, splitting their time between the cities of Shanghai and Suzhou.
Bolt said "China was chosen as the first trip destination because it gave the students the opportunity to see an economy transition success fully from a planned economy to much more of a free market economy."
"China is in the midst of an industrial revolution, with an emerging middle class and consistently high Gross Domestic Product growth," she continued.
Participating students were required to register for the two-unit Global Business Immersion class, which is a part of Ohlone's recently created International Business Certificate.
The new certificate program is funded by a federal grant that was awarded to Ohlone in Spring 2008 by the Department of Education.
The grant partially subsidized the China Immersion trip, cutting the cost to $1,999, which covered tours, airfare, accommodations and group meals.
Living in another culture for three weeks was "a great experience," said International Business major Mark Speers. "I learned a lot about how the Chinese people live efficiently in such a crowded space. The business aspect was also interesting because the people would rather get to know you than deal with business in the start."
Students participated in a variety of educational and cultural activities, including visits to several businesses and tourist attractions.
The group visited manufacturing plants such as Caterpillar, Bao Steel, TT Electronics, Nilit Nylon Technologies and Avery-Dennison, where they were able hear from speakers on topics concerning international business.
During the business meetings, they were able to view operations and hear from various speakers on topics encompassing every aspect of international business.
Bao Steel, a state-owned company, is the largest steel and iron producer in China and the third largest steel producer in the world.
The group, hard hats and all, toured the massive Shanghai facility widely known by the locals as "a city within a city". They walked down the length of the facility while watching a white-hot metal brick pounded out into thin sheets of steel.
While in Suzhou, the majority of business meetings were located in the SIP, or the Suzhou Industrial Park.
The students were alsoable to visit King and Wood Law Firm and speak with several of their partners, including the first female partner of the law firm.
The Chinese based firm, which has offices across China as well as one in Palo Alto, had represented the Chinese government in all legal matters involved with the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.
"This trip has definitely given me a broader knowledge of the international business world," said Richard Le.
" I have learned that China is now the main place for businessmen and corporations who want to expand their operations and ventures. China's economy is on the rise and it shows no signs of slowing down," Le continued.
One particular highlight of the trip was the Shanghai WorldExpo—featuring pavilions showcasing the cultures of countries all over the world.
Business major Vivian Lam said, "We had a wonderful time there. Most of the pavilions were interesting and they really demonstrated the cultural differences between the countries."
Although China is a thoroughly modern nation, evidence of its long history is always on display. For all the industrialization the country has undergone, traditional businesses continue to thrive.
The students witnessed this when they visited a tea farm in a small village on an island in the middle of Lake Taihu and during their visit to a traditional silk factory.
In Suzhou, students participated in a cultural excursion, the Dragon Boat Festival, or Duanwu. It is a traditional holiday featuring dragon boat racing and performances.
Other cultural visits included areas such as Qibao, an Ancient Town in Shanghai, the Humble Administrator's Garden and Master of Nets Garden in Suzhou.
"From my perspective the Global Business Immersion: China study abroad program was a tremendous success," said Eddie West, director of International Programs and Services at Ohlone.
West said "We had nine highly motivated students, from diverse backgrounds visit Shanghai and Suzhou, and were able to witness a country that is dynamic and rapidly modernizing, on the one hand and yet steeped in rich culture and tradition on the other."
"China is going to exert more and more influence on the world in the future. It's important that our students gain a better sense of the country, its people, traditions, history and perspectives and vice-versa. I think the program this summer helped foster that mutual understanding," he continued.
Two more Global Business Immersion trips abroad are being tentatively planned, according to Bolt.
One group of students will be taken to China again and the other group would go to Japan, which will be Ohlone's first study abroad trip in that country.
Students in learning more of this program are advised to browse the International Business web site: featuring information on study abroad, the International Business certificate and photos from the China trip.

"Ideally you like for him, if we're going to try to see in the first game of the season, for him to get some work in the preseason at some point. Now, will that happen? I don't know," Frazier said after Peterson spent the second day of training camp practices rehabilitating his surgically repaired left knee on a side field. "We'll see how he progresses, but ideally you'd like to see him get some carries at some point in the preseason, just for his benefit where he can gain some confidence and get a feel for where he is and where he needs to be for the first game of the season."
Peterson had surgery Dec. 30 to repair the torn anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee. He starting cutting on the knee in May, but the Vikings on Friday placed him on the active/physically unable to perform list at the start of training camp.
Peterson's Friday workout regimen included things like modified burpees and lifting and throwing medicine balls. On Saturday, he was simulating more football action under the watch of head athletic trainer Eric Sugarman.
"That's what we're trying to get done, just to simulate somewhat some of the things he would see in drill work, just to see how he responds," Frazier said. "One of the keys is what happens the day after. We'll keep monitoring and keep adding a little bit more and see how he responds and then make a decision at some point."
Frazier said there are multiple things they want to see out of Peterson before putting him back in a practice setting, where he will have to make quicker decisions and be prepared to take contact on the knee. Peterson said he felt taking the hits of a football practice was the last step he needed to prove to himself.
"We want him to sometimes just have to react to what he sees, just like he would have to in a game. He doesn't know if a guy is going to fall in front of him, but he has to find a way to get out of the way to protect himself," Frazier said. "We have some things in place that we're going to do as we continue to progress over these next few days."
Asked if he thought Peterson was days away or weeks away from practicing, Frazier declined to get into speculative timelines.
"It's hard to say now. He's making good progress, but we're going to sit down and talk about the things he did today and see what's next tomorrow," Frazier said. "I don't want to say now that it's days away or weeks away."

let's say you want to take a few points from an
interploating function and ListPlot it. and then show
it together with the graph object from Plot.
solution = NDSolve[{y'[t] == -y[t], y[0] == 1}, {y},

g0 = Plot[Evaluate[y[t] /. solution], {t, 0, 7},

{t, 0, 7, 0.05}]],PlotStyle -> PointSize[0.015],
DisplayFunction -> Identity];
Show[g0, g1, DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction]
will show two plots in one graph, but plots have their
own axis scale. the Plot[] object seems to be shrunk
in scales due to ListPlot[] object having more points.
(due to being tabled)
How do i fix this so that both Plot have same axis
scales? ( I want to show dots from ListPlot to overlay
on top of Plot graph. )
Thanks in advance for any insights.

[NWSL: Week 12] The unbeaten Seattle Reign FC has cleared star Hope Solo to play in Saturday's home game against Sky Blue FC following her arrest a week ago on charges of fourth-degree domestic violence assault in an incident involving her sister and nephew.
Solo pleaded not guilty in a court appearance
on Monday and was released on her own recognizance. The Reign said in a post on its Facebook page that an investigation, "which has
included multiple conversations with Hope, made it clear that there are differing perspectives on the events that led up to Hope's arrest. As such, we feel it is fair and prudent to await the
outcome of the legal process before making a final judgment about the incident."
Hope, who was ordered to avoid drinking alcohol and contact with her sister and nephew, made an
apology in a post of her own on her Facebook page: "I understand that, as a public figure, I am held to a higher standard
of conduct. I take seriously my responsibilities as a role model and sincerely apologize to everyone I have disappointed."
Solo's next hearing is scheduled for Aug. 11.
WEDNESDAY. Goals by Katy Freels and Lindsi Cutshall gave Sky Blue FC its third win of the season in 15 games, a 2-1 win over the Portland Thorns
FC in front of 10,477 fans at Providence Park. Sky Blue FC goalkeeper Brittany Cameron to make five saves to hold off
the Thorns, whose only goal was scored by Canadian Christine Sinclair.

As Rob Nicholson, the new defence minister, settles in at National Defence headquarters, he will have been briefed on the war of the Two Towers — one run by DND bureaucrats who control the purse strings; the other by the uniforms of the Canadian Forces.
The on-going hostilities are likely to flare up as the new minister is forced to make some unpalatable decisions on resource allocation, including the possibility of reducing the size of Canada's 68,000 regular forces by chopping one or more of its nine infantry battalions.
Earlier this month, U.S. defence secretary Chuck Hagel indicated the Pentagon might have to decide between a "much smaller force" or a decade-long "holiday" from modernizing weapons systems and technology. Word leaked that the cancellation of the $392-billion F-35 joint strike fighter program was being contemplated — a rumour defence officials later tried to quash.
Canada has its own cash crisis — by 2014/15, nearly $2.5-billion will have been cut from DND's budget.
The Armed Forces want to maintain the existing number of troops and bases, while adding new gear like the F-35s. An update released late last week showed that DND is still committed to buying 65 F-35s, despite cost increases. Rather than increase the $8.9-billion it would cost to buy the planes, the department simply reduced the amount of contingency it had in place for cost over-runs from $602-million down to $342-million, to remain within the $9-billion ceiling. "The provision for acquisition contingency could be considered low for a project of this size and scope," DND admitted in the update.
David Perry, a senior analyst at the Conference of Defence Associations Institute, said the military brass's hopes of muddling through are likely to prove forlorn. "Something has to give," he said. "They are facing a significant budget crunch that is going to force them to make some serious reforms," he said.
According to the 2011 transformation report authored by Andrew Leslie, the now retired former Canadian Forces general, the military was already $1-billion short in funding for the Canada First Defence Strategy acquisitions to re-equip the military. He suggested $2-billion in savings by cutting non-operational spending on things like consultants and administration to pay for the capital acquisitions and satisfy the government's deficit-reduction plan. But the report has been gathering dust since it reached the less than enthusiastic hands of then defence minister, Peter MacKay.
The uniformed tower in DND not only resisted the Leslie report, it is fighting the prospect of any reduction in numbers or equipment cancellations. The preferred option is to find "efficiencies" in ongoing operations — a Holy Grail type search that has yielded few results in the last 20 years.
This, after all, is the department that is never able to spend its capital budget, at considerable cost to the taxpayer. When it can't spend its capital allocation, it "reprofiles" the money but loses purchasing power because projects are not compensated to adjust for inflation, which runs at 7% annually according to the Defence Specific Inflation average. The cumulative impact has been $556-million of lost purchasing power in recent years, according to Mr. Perry.
Andrew Leslie points out that the administrative overhead has grown by 40% in recent years, since 2006, while the number of deployable troops has grown by just 10%. "Reduce overhead before you attack output," he said.
Yet Mr. Perry estimates that, even if the Leslie report was implemented in full, it probably wouldn't be sufficient. At some point the Canadian Forces will have to reduce personnel numbers or get out of the expensive business of fighter jet or submarine warfare, he said.
Given the expensive investments in planes and ships, the most logical place to cut is the army, which has seen numbers rise to 68,000 from 60,000 in recent years. The suggestion from some quarters is that the current structure, where Canada has three regular force regiments — the Royal Canadian Regiment in Ontario and New Brunswick; the Princess Patricia's Light Infantry in Alberta and Manitoba and the Royal 22nd Regiment in Quebec City — is a political construct without justification in the real world. Each regiment has three battalions but the imperative for that number is more political than military, so the argument goes.
'If the decision is taken to reduce training, regular forces or reserves, Canadians should start to ask some serious questions about the fiscal competence of the government'
When asked specifically if the Conservatives were committed to maintaining a regular force of 68,000, Mr. Nicholson's press secretary Julie Di Mambro said only that the government would maintain a "modern, first-class military that is sustainable over the long term."
When asked if it were possible that there may be revisions in planned equipment acquisitions, she said the Canada First Defence Strategy remains the basis for defence planning. However, she added "all countries normally review their specific defence policy priorities and objectives every few years to ensure that they are keeping pace with evolving strategic realities." All of which suggests everything is under review.
Chopping a battalion in Quebec City — the only part of the province where the Conservatives may keep their head above water at the next election — may make Mr. Nicholson blanche.
Mr. Leslie gave some indication of the likely reaction to any cuts to the army's "teeth," as opposed to its "tail."
"If the decision is taken to reduce training, regular forces or reserves, Canadians should start to ask some serious questions about the fiscal competence of the government," he said.
But if Mr. Perry's calculations are correct, DND can't simultaneously slash budgets, maintain headcount and invest in new gear without doing something drastic — especially when the budget was insufficient in the first place.

"Hands down one of our favorite restaurants and some of the best food you can find. If you're in the mood for a fantastic upscale meal, definitely go to Michaels. Make reservations or head there early and have a drink at their bar while you wait!"
Meghan and Aaron's Wedding
"WONDERFUL!! We had our wedding reception here, outside in their garden area. Michaels is a hidden gem - not only was the food affordable compared to other reception sites we looked at, but the food was absolutely delicious. I especially recommend their steak...yum! It is what they are known for. Plus, if you hold your celebration in the outdoor area, there is little decorating needed because it it so pretty already with the tropical trees, fountains, and lights at night. We just had a sit-down dinner reception here and went out afterwards to Duval Street and danced. It worked out wonderfully! http://www.michaelskeywest.com"

The subaru/hyundai Grayson dealerships is legendary around here for being bad. Mostly just bad business practices and bad customer service but they also had quite a few messes in the service department too. I know a guy who is a tech there and he's great, I'll request him if I ever have to go there. But the thing that threw me in was, a guy in the Subaru club went in for the same recall work (fuel lines) and after a while they just handed him a check for their time and parts and told him to fix it himself. I don't remember the details of the story but they really messed his car up and that just kinda spooked me, along with the way they interacted with me while I was there, it just wasn't pleasant and I didn't feel safe lol. Not even the salesman in the pinstripe suit and long fur jacket and fedora smoking a cigar and wearing ray bans could make me feel comfortable there.Pretty soon this will be caught up to the present day and guess which update you'll have a feature in Mikie?"Mikie13"
Now throw that intake on for some pshhhhh soundThanks. I hope i don't discourage you too much from buying a Subaru with my long repair saga."Skandiluz"
Hopefully you get your boost and fuel issues sorted out.

Erie fell again to Altoona, losing 5-4 on Thursday.

A+ Lakeland Flying Tigers – Lakeland 4, Daytona 3 (11)
32-28, t-3rd in North Division
The Flying Tigers continue to pick up wins as they topped Daytona 4-3 on Thursday in 11 innings after their shutout victory on Wednesday. Lakeland trailed 3-1 entering the ninth inning, but after a couple men reached base, Tony Plagman brought them both home with a two-run double. Then in the 11th with the game tied at three, Julio Rodriguez led off the inning with a solo blast to left field to give Lakeland a 4-3 edge, which is all Kenny Faulk needed as he tossed a perfect 11th to get the save and secure the win. Luke Putkonen initially got the start and pitched well, giving up three runs on eight hits in seven innings of work. Ryan Robowski, Dan Gentzler and Shawn Teufel combined to toss three scoreless innings, with Teufel earning the win.

Rakhi Decorations
Rakhi, the festival that celebrates the
love that
brothers and sisters share,
comes with its own paraphernalia of beautiful decorations. Besides focusing on the general appearance of the house as well decorating it in as attractive a manner as possible, Rakhi decorations mainly revolve around the decoration of the Rakhi that is the focal point during the actual ceremony of the festival. Here are a few ideas that could help you decorate your home as well as your Rakhi thali for the festival celebration this year. It is these small things, after all, that make all the difference between a regular humdrum celebration and a truly memorable one.
It has become a more common practice to buy a rakhi thali for the celebrations. Today, there are assortments
of rakhi thalis available in
the market. The thali in
fact can be of silver, brass
or of steel for that matter.
For good measure you can
even explore the market for
thalis with fixed containers
and stands as well, for
placing different things. Apart from buying the rakhi thali, the practice of gifting rakhi thalis has become another popular phenomenon.
|Rakhi Thali Decorations
Roli-turmeric Thali – Interested in giving a traditional look to your thali then go ahead and mix a little water to roli and the turmeric and then apply the liquid to the thali. The red and yellow combination will bestow a customary look to your thali.
Dry-fruits Thali – Mixed dry fruits like cashew nuts, chestnuts, raisins, cocoa nut, pistachio, almond, betelnut etc can be spread on the entire base. Or different circles of different dry- fruits can also be arranged, for it gives a colourful look.
Floral Thali - Fill the thali with fresh flowers, or just decorate the borders. You can opt for a single color flowers, or an array of varied color flowers. Alternatively, petals of flower are also a fine option.
Sweets Rakhi Thali – Place full pieces of the sweets in an attractive manner or cut them in different shapes and then place them. A combination of them will also look mesmerizing.
Choco-toffee Thali - This type of thali will suit the children perhaps. However, no real chocolates are placed here. In fact the area of thali is divided into different divisions by drawing lines of chocolates and toffeees. And in every division a Rakhi, diya, sweets, roli and akshat are placed.
Painted Thali - Geometric, floral, landscape or other themes can be made with paints on the thali.
Collage Thali – The thali will give a look of a college painting and so referred to as a Collage Thali. Varied color paper cuttings can be used for the decoration. Either plain papers with single color or the printed papers containing some pictures can be used.
Exquisite Thali – If you are looking to add to the glamour and sparkle of the occasion, you could try and use some shining crystals, diamonds and glitter to the thali. These are quite easily available in the market and ca stuck on simply to add dramatic effects. Mix them with stones of different colours in auspicious symbols like the 'om' and 'swastik', and your thali will look spectacular.
Water Thali – This is an extremely interesting thali which needs to be large and have raised edges. Place coloured or even plain water in the thali and use small vessels to contain the rakhi, roli and other essentials. You can place some flowers in the water which will float, and can use a floating candle(preferably a scented one), to replace the diya.
Rakhi thali decorations are just only one aspect of rakshabandhan festivities. Well, of course though festivities reach its crescendo that climax within a day's time, the memories would linger. So get going and decorate your house on rakhi as well. Varied color bells, buntings, streamers will add to the festive look. Besides, making rangoli is also important part of rakhi celebrations. Rangoli can be made at the entrance, or in the room where you intend to tie the rakhi.
Get ready to mesmerize your brother this rakhi this year with not just beautiful thalis and rakhis, but also with the most exquisite gifts which can be sent all the way to India. GujaratGifts.com brings you the most expansive range of solutions including the rakhi thali, rakhi gifts to India and also rakhi deliveries in India.

Just like Nam. The Jersey was there and some little pip squeak boat asked them to identify themselves or be blown out of the water. The Jersey answered back "fire when ready".

An abortion clinic has opened under a shroud of secrecy designed to protect its medical staff.
The refusal of local doctors to perform abortions temporarily derailed plans to open the Invercargill clinic in July.
Women from the area had been forced to travel to Dunedin or Christchurch for terminations, but now, after months of protest, an abortion clinic has "quietly" opened at Invercargill's hospital, chief medical officer David Tulloch said.
To protect the workers' identities, the Southland District Health Board would not say whether the clinic's staff were from the area, or were travelling from other regions. Anti-abortion group Southlanders for Life is vowing to step up protests outside the clinic, and to "name-and-shame" medical staff.
Pro-lifers, who name Deputy Prime Minister Bill English as a supporter in their press releases, and religious leaders are also backing the pro-life movement, with Catholic bishop Colin Campbell recently rallying followers to stop the "culture of death" from spreading.
Dr Norman MacLean, a retired Invercargill obstetrician who heads up Southlanders for Life, said he wanted to stop "child abuse in the womb". In the war against abortion, he said, "we're on the winning side".
MacLean said women had become too liberal with abortions. "There may be some abortions that are necessary in very serious situations, but I don't like the idea of abortion on request. There's an unborn baby in the middle of this." He said that did not sit well with a conservative Invercargill community, which had its origins as a church colony.
The planned abortion clinic unsettled the health board's doctors and nurses, and caused division between midwives. In August, senior paediatrician Dr Vili Sotutu resigned in protest against abortions, but later retracted that after discussions with hospital bosses. The Southland DHB also struggled to find other staff to work at the clinic.
Father Vaughan Leslie is among those promising to begin weekly demonstrations outside the clinic, and to name those who work there. "We feel if you're pregnant you have a right to know if your midwife performs abortions as well."
Abortion Law Reform Association NZ president Morgan Healey said protesters who labelled women baby-killers were causing more emotional damage than the actual abortion. "It completely misses the whole concept of caring for women."
There is a shortage of abortion clinics throughout the country. There is either no clinic or only limited services in Manawatu, Bay of Plenty, Rotorua, Whanganui, South Canterbury and the West Coast. There were 15,863 abortions in 2011, and 16,630 in 2010.
As the abortion debate divides Southland, a new campaign has been launched to decriminalise terminations. New Zealand has one of the more stringent processes for women to get an abortion, compared to other developed nations. The Abortion Law Reform Association wants terminations treated as a health service not a crime, but the Government has rejected that. Under current law, an abortion is allowed where pregnancy might damage the mother's physical or mental wellbeing. A spokesperson for Justice Minister Judith Collins said the Government did not plan to review abortion laws.
