Ocean kayak rescue
I'm not one of those that gets all high and mighty over the current rash of ocean rescues. However, this one is just pushing the limits. If there is any inclination to charge for rescues or have regulatory training or licensing requirements, stuff like this will work in that favor.
Man attempting kayak trip from California to Hawaii rescued in Santa Barbara

Yeah there's a thread here about it Minn.

Re: Ocean kayak rescue
Looks like this guy only got eleven feet out in the ocean. Seems like a crazy goal.
Re: Ocean kayak rescue
Couldn't find California...
"Help, I'm lost!"
"Ahuh. Is there a big yellow thing in the sky? A bright yellow thing?"
"Okay, you just look for the same yellow thing around six a.m. tomorrow, and paddle like hell in the direction it came from. You'll be home in two days."
Really, how hard does it get?

Re: Ocean kayak rescue
This is too funny, but sad at the same time.
Re: Ocean kayak rescue
From the linked article: "A friend of the man told the Coast Guard he'd left Monterey May 30th attempting to make the voyage of nearly 2,400 miles to Honolulu in a kayak with a solar panel that charged his electronic equipment.
The solar panel malfunctioned on Saturday and the man turned back to California, but sent out the distress call when he couldn't find his way back."
I guess that this guy relied too much on his electronics and not enough on things like compass and map. When his electronics failed, he panicked to the point of calling in the cavalry because he could not get back, let alone going forward to Hawaii.
Yes, it is deeply sad, but not one bit funny.
Re: Ocean kayak rescue
I see a great deal of humor in it. Politically incorrect but as Bugs Bunny said, "What a maroon!"
I mean, come on now. The guy is taking on an ocean voyage in a kayak, solo, and he doesn't have the brains to find a whole CONTINENT that's only 60 miles away?
This is what happens when you let folks out without their keepers, and yes, the ocean is a cruel and unforgiving place.
No doubt next time he'll paint an arrow on the kayak that points to Hawaii, so he has something to follow if the GPS dies?

Allegheny County spared major damage in Super Storm; Eyes on Mon River
PITTSBURGH - Allegheny County was spared any major damage when Super Storm Sandy moved through the area Monday night and early Tuesday morning. Officials said they're now keeping a close watch on the Monagahela River, which could continue to rise over the next coming days.
Experts said snow melt in the mountains could cause the river to flood into the Mon Wharf, which has been shut down.
'What's happening in West Virginia could impact that. With that much snow they have had down there and heavy rains on top of that, it will affect what happens in the Mon River," Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald said.
Overnight, strong winds and rain pounded the area and left behind downed power lines and debris on roadways.
"City workers did a great job responding swiftly over night to downed trees and flash flooding," Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl said. "While the worst of the storm appears to be over, residents must remain cautious as the risk of flash flooding in some areas still remains."
At the Allegheny County 911 operations center, officials said most of the calls they received were to report downed trees.
"As of right now we've dodged a bullet," said Fitzgerald.
Channel 11's Dave Bondy reported that Girty's Run Creek in Millvale, the site of major flooding during Hurricane Ivan in 2004, was stable.
A high wind warning was canceled just before 6 a.m. Severe Weather Team meteorologist Kevin Benson said winds will diminish throughout the day as rain continues.
Coal Hollow Road in Penn Hills between Verona Road and Frankstown Road was shut down after reports of a mud slide.
Swift water rescue crews were sent to Streets Run Road and to routes 51 and 88 overnight for water on the roadway, officials said. Barricades have been placed at both locations and drivers are asked to avoid those areas.
Public Works crews said the creek near routes 51 and 88 remained high Tuesday morning. Officials said they are closely monitoring those areas. The roads remain open.
As of noon, Duquesne Light officials said about 650 customers were without power. Officials said crews are in the process of restoring power to those affected.
West Penn Power officials said about 7,500 customers were without service Tuesday morning.
Officials remind residents that downed wires are a safety hazard and should be avoided. Residents should not drive over or go near any downed wires.
There was no word on when the power would be restored.

Quite a while ago, I learned a little about something called cyclic vomiting syndrome (CVS) by reading another blog. CVS is a fun little thing that most often affects kids and causes seemingly random vomiting. An episode will usually last anywhere from a few hours to a few days and consists of frequent vomiting and what some people describe as a "conscious coma" (basically looking and feeling awful). Then it ends and after some sleep, the person feels completely fine again. By happenstance, one of my friend's kids started having weird vomiting episodes and I mentioned CVS to her on facebook and it turned out that was what was going on.
Fast forward to mid October. Sierra had these episodes of pretty severe vomiting and obviously feeling really terrible, followed by complete normalcy later in the day. No one else in the family ever caught these "stomach bugs" and I was baffled. Until a friend who had participated in that earlier facebook conversation said, "what about that CVS thing?" Huh. That's a bit ironic. After that point, she didn't have vomiting episodes though.
She did start having severe abdominal pain. It wasn't near her stomach, it was always just above her belly button and she would gesture to the area with her whole hand, not a pin point spot. She insisted it was just a pain, no burning or stabbing sensation. She had no GI issues. She had no fever. If I palpated her abdomen there was no tenderness around her appendix or anything like that. However, she was in tears, pale and curled up into a ball for several hours. Then, just like before, she'd sleep for a while and she was fine again until the next episode.
A little research and a trip to the doctor later, and she was diagnosed with abdominal migraines. As the name suggests, it's just like a migraine headache, except the pain is in her abdomen instead of her head. Some people say this and cyclic vomiting are the same thing (CVS comes with vomiting, abdominal migraine does not) and some people say they're different. I didn't ask for clarification from the doctor because it doesn't matter all that much, but she seemed to imply they are basically the same, or at least very closely related.
It's usually children that are afflicted with CVS or abdominal migraine and they often have a family history of migraine headaches (I don't have migraines, but there is a strong history of them in my family). Sometimes the children develop migraine headaches instead as time goes on and I've also read meniere's disease (which is also in my family) is also related and can come up later in life.
So after all of this, I asked Sierra if I could write about this and she said she wanted me to be sure and talk about what treatment has been helpful for her in case there are other kids out there with the same thing.
First of all, we had a discussion with her doctor about her symptoms and when they happened. Diagnosis is made mostly from patient history, but also by excluding a few other, sometimes serious, possibilities, so don't skip an exam by the doctor. For medication, we are starting out with zofran, which is an anti-vomiting drug with minimal side effects that's commonly used for hyperemesis and chemo patients. Even when she's not actually vomiting, the zofran seems to help with the pain. I suspect feeling so bad makes her tense, so getting rid of the nausea helps her relax and that eases the abdominal pain enough for her to sleep it off.
Second, her trigger is excitement. She's had one episode triggered by stress/worry (the day we euthanized Angel), but all of the others have been before or after events that she was really excited about. Trick-or-treating, visiting the new house before we moved, a girl scout activity, the Christmas parade...anything out of the ordinary that she's really looking forward to. We have chosen to not give her a lot of notice about things when possible because the anticipation seems to lead to very frequent episodes. If she doesn't have too much time to think about it, she usually has a mild tummy ache before the event, does fine during it, then sometimes crashes afterwards. The doctor emphasized to her that it's normal to be excited about things and it's okay to be excited about things, which is important, I think. She has started doing yoga classes with me which has helped her learn to calm herself down a little bit. She can be excited without being off-the-charts, bouncing off the walls excited.
The third thing we've tried is purely "won't hurt and might help". I've read about a theory that these episodes may be triggered by mitochondrial insufficiency. Mitochondria are the parts of your cells that make ATP (the energy your cells use). Mitochondria also happen to have their own set of DNA that you only inherit from your mother (and migraines are often inherited through the maternal line). The theory goes that the mitochondria aren't working as well as they should, so they can keep up most of the time, but when more energy is needed (i.e. during bad stress, the good stress of excitement, menstrual periods or illness), they get behind and that triggers an attack. Part of the recommended solution to that is to have frequent snacks that are high in complex carbs. That's easy enough to do and isn't going to hurt anything.
Another mitochondrial solution that has shown some promise in studies is taking CoQ10 and/or L-carnitine supplements. I'm not sure of all the possible interactions or contraindications for those, especially in kids, so we're not getting into that without our pediatrician's approval. We have talked a little bit about what the next step may be if the zofran doesn't keep things under control and the doctor said migraine prevention meds, but those have side effects, so we don't get into that unless she's having 4-5 attacks a month that the zofran doesn't help and are keeping her from participating in activities. We're not there yet. If we get there, I plan to ask her about trying these supplements first if the side effects will be less than with the migraine meds.
Between the zofran and increased snacking on exciting days, we have things pretty under control right now. She's having about 2 serious attacks (where she's non-functional) a month, but some zofran and sleep takes care of them. She mentions "my tummy hurts", and then continues on with her day, on a much more frequent basis (again, always the same belly button area pain, not the upper left quadrant pain that might come with stress induced gastritis), so we carry the zofran with us all the time just in case. We will just have to wait and see if this goes away over time, or if it ramps up as hormones get added to the equation.
If you want more information, the Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome Association has a pretty good website with ideas about dealing with CVS at school, the latest research articles, a hospital packing list (for people with longer episodes that may lead to dehydration and require being admitted), and other resources. The message boards are helpful for finding ideas about what has helped other people.

Live stats (Coastal Carolina)
Live stats (Charleston Southern)
Watch live (both matches)
BUIES CREEK, N.C.-Riding a four match winning streak, Campbell will dive back into Big South play this weekend, heading to Coastal Carolina and Charleston Southern.
The Camels will face Coastal Carolina Friday, Sep. 30 at 7 p.m. in Conway, S.C., taking on CSU on Saturday, Oct. 1 at 7 p.m. in Charleston, S.C.
Campbell is 8-9 overall on the season and 1-0 in Big South matches following a sweep of the High Point Invitational last weekend. The Camels started out with a 3-0 win over High Point on Friday, their first Big South match since 1993, and followed with triumphs over Maryland Eastern Shore and Norfolk State on Saturday.
Lorin Thomas, a right side from Raleigh, N.C., collected 17 blocks and 12 kills in the three contests, earning the rookie Big South Freshman of the Week honors. Thomas is averaging 1.05 kills and 0.82 blocks per set on the season.
Junior outside hitter Jordan Reaves leads the Camels with 2.88 kills and 2.71 digs a frame, posting a season-high of 20 scores against UMES. Senior middle blocker Annie Kobeski, who gathered a season-high of 12 kills twice over the weekend, adds 1.64 kills per set and 0.98 blocks.
Sophomore setter Heather Wilson adds 7.12 assists per set, while senior defensive specialist Kelsey Campbell tacks on 3.15 digs per set.
Coastal Carolina is 6-11 on the year and 0-2 in Big South play following road losses to Presbyterian and Winthrop. The Chanticleers also fell 3-1 to the College of Charleston at home on Tuesday, winning the first set 25-18 before dropping three-straight to the Cougars.
Sophomore middle Meghan Laffin leads the Chants at 2.81 kills per set, while Ericka Lightsey and Lian Bernett add 2.70 and 2.45 marks, respectively. Bernett, a freshman right side, also posts 2.11 digs per frame, while sophomore Lindsay Gill tops the team in the category at 3.56 a set. Sophomore setter Sam Skyrd gathers 8.27 assists per frame.
Charleston Southern is 3-14 overall and 0-2 in league action, dropping four in a row, also including road losses to Presbyterian and Winthrop. The Buccaneers began the year 0-9 but took three of their next four before falling on their current skid. The Bucs will host High Point on Friday night before hosting Campbell Saturday.
CSU is led by freshman middle Sydney Tracy, who tallies a team-best 2.21 kills and 0.89 blocks per set. Sophomore outside hitter Kayla Klinger adds 2.05 kills and 1.72 digs a game, with freshman libero Ashley Higginbothem posting 4.15 digs per frame. Amy Nokes and Kirsten Strunksnes combine for 9.30 assists and 3.78 digs per frame.
After the weekend set the Camels will return home for the first pair of five-straight matches inside the Pope Center, hosting Radford (Oct. 7) and Liberty (Oct. 8).

Busy weekend ended with another 0.65 walk today
On Thursday my wife and I drove to Los Angeles (10 hours each way) to attend a conference on "Parallels and Convergences: Mormon Thought and Engineering Vision" at the Claremont School of Religion at the Claremont Graduate University. On Friday we toured the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena and attended the Keynote address at Claremont that evening. All day Saturday was spent in the Conference, and I gave my paper on "God, the Perfect Engineer" as the first speaker. We came home on Sunday. I didn't do any organized walking during the four days, but I was on my feet a lot and did a lot of walking during the tour at JPL. I walked the 0.65 miles again today. I felt fine during all of this. I didn't get particularly tired during the four days and today, and I had a high energy level. My walk today was at a faster pace than it was last week.

Hi Herb,
Go to my religious essays and click on God, the Perfect Engineer in the Science category. To read about the conference itself, click on Convergence of Science & Religion, which is just above the other link, and look in the left side-bar under Conference Papers heading. At some point in time, all of the papers will be online, including video of the presentations, at that site.

Installing a Door in an existing pass-through
I have a pass through where I want to install a door. The existing space for a new door is roughly 90'x30, but it wasn't built well, so the width varies top to bottom from 29-30". I'm thinking of installing a custom made 27-28" wide door and building the frame around it. How do I install the frame to the existing space and account for the 1" gap between the top to the bottom? There are metal studs surrounding the opening.
Personally, if it were me, I would buy a prehung 28" door and install it there. Less expensive and much faster than a custom door job.
To determine which swing to buy (left or right), back up to the hinge side that you choose and whichever hand is on the side of the way that you want to door to swing, get that.
You can shim out the framing with 1X4, as necessary.
To install it, you will need a level, a carpenter's square, hammer and/or screwdriver, and beveled shims (smooth cedar roofing shingles work great).
To make sure that the door swings clear of the floor, raise the prehung frame up on blocks (1X or 2X, depending on how high it needs to be raised in the frame to the header.)
Remove the door from the frame, and hang the hinge side first, making certain that it is plumb and square before nailing it. Push two beveled shims in from opposite sides behind the hinges to plumb it. Then do the top, making sure that it is level and square, and then do the latch side plumb and square.
The bottom of the door should swing 1/2"-5/8" above the finished floor (carpet, tile, wood, etc.).
Good Luck!
I don't think that a prehung 28" door is going to fit in a 29" rough opening. You usually need an extra 2-1/2" plus some wiggle room = 31"

Is Obama's "Tough" Guy Image Making Backfiring?
By Dave Lefcourt
There's a developing story w/ some intrigue involving the Obama W. House over NY Times articles reporting on the Stuxnet computer worm disrupting Iranian centrifuges enriching uranium & secret kill lists drawn up by Obama & his advisors to assassinate suspected terrorists in Pakistan, Yemen & Somalia. Other than the public being informed on the Machiavellian machinations inside the W.H. the rest is dissembling & grandstanding.

There's a developing political story with some intrigue involving the Obama White House that's not exactly flying below the radar, but has caught the attention of both Republicans and Democrats in Congress focusing on stories leaked or authorized by administration "officials" to New York Times reporters and subsequently published in the paper.
The Times articles, one on the "Stuxnet" cyber warfare computer worm that reportedly was authorized by the Obama administration to counter Iran's nuclear program by disrupting Iranian centrifuges from enriching uranium to suspected bomb grade levels while the other story revealed secret "kill lists" drawn up by Obama and his advisors authorizing drone strikes and missile attacks to assassinate suspected terrorists in Pakistan, Yemen and Somalia.
The Republicans, particularly Senator John McCain wants a special prosecutor investigation, accusing the Obama administration of authorizing the "leaks" for partisan political reasons to make the president look "tough" on defense.
Democrat Senators Dianne Feinstein and Carl Levin "worry" these stories, and the release of this information, undermine national security. Levin's office announced his Armed Services Committee would hold hearings "pertaining to the recent public reports of classified information".
Meanwhile Attorney General Eric Holder announced on Friday the appointment of two federal prosecutors to investigate the "leak" allegations while the president has vehemently denied his administration sanctioned the leaking reported in the Times stories.
So what is really going on here?
Did the Obama crowd miscalculate that the Times stories, intending to make the president look "tough", didn't "play well in Peoria" and now appear indignant they didn't intentionally plant the stories after all? The Times reporter on the "Stuxnet" story, David Sanger defended his reporting saying on CNN he got the information "from the ground up. Did I talk to a lot of people in the administration? Of course."
From here, other than the public becoming informed about some of the Machiavellian inner machinations of the Obama White House and his assuming powers not granted in the Constitution or authorized by the Congress, the rest is all so much soap opera, obfuscation, dissembling and grandstanding.
Obama's whole "macho" campaign is intended to offset Republican attacks on him being "soft on defense" was bound to backfire. Why? The Republicans will always attack any Democrat that way regardless of the reality of what the latter do or don't do, so attempting to out macho the former is always a fools game.
Then of course, Obama chose to essentially follow the Bush/Cheney playbook, adopt the absurd war on terrorism as his own, expanding and embellishing it, rather than refuting and ending it.
It all goes back to Bush framing the 9/11 attacks as an act of war rather than a criminal act by some co-conspirators acting in coordination thus initiating the endless, phony "war on terror" justifying all the misguided and misdirected policy decisions since that time i.e. sweeping up any suspected "terrorists", continuing the extra ordinary rendition, indefinite detention, torture, suspension of habeas corpus, drone strikes and missile attacks, expanding the growth of corporate mercenary armies along with the pre-emptive wars and occupations while broadening the scope of the national security state domestically, (all continued under Obama).
In America today, a president starting a war, even the absurd and unnecessary "war on terrorism" is relatively easy (since Congress long ago abdicated its Constitutional mandated roll as the only branch responsible for declaring war). Ending that war will not be that easy considering there is no leader currently on the horizon, (who has a chance of being elected), that would have the fortitude to be the transformational leader to extricate us from the abyss that is our endless war on terror.

Harness was made in 2002. Bought it in late 2002 or early 2003. I used it for AutoX and track. But I strongly recommend this to be used for street and AutoX only. I know this sounds contradicting but harness should not be worn without a roll bar/cage on the track.
If you're competing in some kind of TT or club race, I do not recommend this harness.

am i back in the e30 game?
Well, my truck took a poop, I needed a car. I wanted a truck because of winter but couldn't find something that I felt was reliable. Steve (not being the normal Steve) told me he would sell me his mint alpine e30 for 3100, and he had it listed for 4000. 3100, is a lot for an e30, but I was looking on craigslist, r3v, etc and wow, the market for these cars skyrocketed. It doesn't matter, it's worth the 3100. It's not mine yet, should be by today, whenever he wakes up. So Steve is helping a brotha out, and I'd rather spend 3100 on an e30 from someone I know than spend it on an e30 from some random guy who claims it's good. I am sure he's posted pics, if not, here they are, I took these this morning. Yes it is automatic, but that will be 5speed swapped as soon as parts/money come my way.
Plates are blurred because they are Steve's plates, and I don't think he'd want me to post them.
Everything works, and I mean everything. All the way down to the si board. Oh wait, the right half of the cluster doesn't light up, haha. has 223k I believe on it. Shifts perfect, runs like a champ, only issue is I think there is something a little loose in the left front, but that's okay, what's an e30 without having something to fix? I forgot to add, it has no central locking system, the only thing it didn't come with, dafuq?
Well, I am back, this is my new e30 as of today, unless something goes wrong. :thumbup: :wave:
Edit: I sure do miss my calypso, and wish I still had it, I prefer calypso over alpine. At least I get to see it everyday in Steve's driveway.
not again:eeps:
welcome back! all E30s came with central locking afaik, i think the seller is telling you stories ;)
is this really a temporary car, or are you actually back?
Love the interior - I'd hurt small fury animals on the net for that.
MAN i wish i had leather seats so bad :(
I got it for a steal, that's for sure.
premium audio pack too!
the car has more original options/parts than most cars you will find on the road today.
black, heated, leather sport interior
premium sound(fully functioning radio)
IS trunk and lip spoilers
glossy original paint with all the original body panels(never removed)
original motor
crack free dash
all of the options listed are on the cars original build sheet. i looked up the car on BMW's official site to confirm everything. i know the radio is the original because i had to call the dealer to get the code, while on the phone the guy was surprised it was the original radio and was still working.
it does however have bottlecaps, a replaced cat-back exhaust and i replaced the front lip.
i did not want to sell the car, but it was a business decision i had to make. i have 2 other projects that needed funding and anstead NEEDED a car. so i gave him an epic discount and now .. i have to see the car every day :mad:
At least now, you will be a part of whatever happens to the car, and you will always know it's safe and sound. I want a garage now because it bothers me so much how minty it is and it's sitting outside.
Crack free dash listed on the build sheet.....
No central locking system.....
Interested in some ocean front property in Oklahoma?:angel:
What's with the 318i muffler?
Its minty and you're gonna drive it through the snow and salt? :(
As much as I don't want to I have to. I'm going to take the necessary precautions I can to help prevent it.
That's one nice find! Congrats and welcome back!!
Figured out why my e30 has been getting 15mpg...apparently the return fuel line above my gas tank is broken..so whenever the excess fuel gets sent back to my tank, it gets sent to the ground..awesome. Well at least I replaced 2 cracked to hell rubber lines, tomorrow we will be attempting to fix the return line.
Great car, Steve can always buy it back at some point. I thought about buying this car but decided against it. Good luck.
i don't want it back. i have 2 e30's sitting in my driveway. come spring we'll see who has the cleanest e30.
Haha I guess we will. ;)

The Baxter County Sheriff's Office is seeking assistance from the public in the investigation into two suspicious fires, believed to be arsons, that occurred on September 4th in the areas of Baxter CR 43 and CR 46 in the rural Gamaliel area.
At approximately 8:30 PM on September 4th, Sheriff's Deputy Tracy Munson responded to a report that a barn near 3729 CR 43 had been on fire, but had been extinguished by a neighbor. Some smoldering boards had been pulled from inside the barn, and the fire appeared to have been deliberately started.
While taking this report, Deputy Munson also learned that there was another fire at the old Fluty schoolhouse, which is nearby on Baxter CR 46. Deputy Munson arrived at the Fluty Schoolhouse to discover it was completely burned down, with the remains of the structure and the surrounding trees and brush on fire. The 101 Gamaliel Fire Department was called to the scene. Sheriff's Investigator Eric Neal was also dispatched to process the fire as a crime scene.
During this investigation, the Sheriff's Office was contacted by the Bakersfield, Missouri Fire Department in Ozark County and informed that they were responding to their third structure fire in the nearby Bakersfield Fire District, two of the three which occurred simultaneously, and had reason to suspect foul play in at least two of them.
Sheriff's Investigators were able to collect some physical evidence at the Gamaliel area fire scenes, and persons living in the area provided some potential, but unverified, suspect vehicle information.
The investigation is still actively underway. The Sheriff's Office is asking for any member of the public having information concerning these fires to contact the Sheriff's Office Criminal Investigation Division at 870-425-7000 or leave a tip on the Sheriff's Office Tip Hot Line at 870-424-4636. All assistance will be greatly appreciated.

Cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! Contact us, or contact another local humane society, animal shelter or SPCA.
We are strong believers in and supporters of spay/neuter programs, Trap/Neuter/Return (TNR), and the Human-Animal Connection.
We are always in need of volunteers, and especially Foster Homes! We welcome your support!
We also take a selected few of our pets to adoption fairs each week. We are at the PetCo at Union and Powers (Prominent Pt) from noon to 4PM on the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of each month and the PetCo on N. Nevada (University Village shopping area) on the 1st and 3rd Saturdays. Some of our animals are a bit shy, or can get stressed at such locations, though, so we like to show them at our location when we can.
Thank you for supporting the animals!
$75 surrender fee (or donation of equal/greater value)
Application and Contract Required.
We try to answer all calls and emails within 24 hours, but we are not paid staff and still have to work elsewhere to keep our operations going. If we are not able to answer you within 24 hours, please try again or better yet, send an email! We will try to make it up to you!
Why should you adopt?
Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life! What is the difference between adopting a cat or kitten versus getting cats for sale or kittens for sale from a cat breeder? When someone is breeding kittens, they are creating new cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of cat or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a cat for sale from a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with cats who must find homes. So rather than buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a cat or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.

Recent User Reviews
"NuForce NE-650M"
- 2.0/5,
Pros - Bass! Fatigue free listening; iPhone microphone/controls
Cons - Bass! De-emphasized treble
Disclaimer: The following is a review from a sample provided by NuForce
First I'd like to thank NuForce, for reaching out and allowing me the opportunity to review their new IEM, the NE-650M.
The 650 is described by the manufacturer as "a uniquely enhanced version of the original NE-600 series earphone. Their high-efficiency design offers an even greater level of performance that delivers exceptional bass via aerodynamic acoustic porting, harmonically correct tonality, a deeply layered soundstage and superb acoustic isolation."
Retailing at $44.99, the 650 features an 11mm dynamic driver, rated with an impedance of 16 ohms and 100db sensitivity. It comes with a small rounded rectangular carrying case and 5 pairs of tips. The 650 also has an iPhone compatible connector and built in microphone with one button control. The button will answer and disconnect calls, as well as pause or resume music on the iPhone. The remote is located on the left side above the Y split on a fairly manageable flat cable. I usually dislike flat cables but this one was OK; probably because it isn't as wide as some of the more annoying flat cables I've experienced. The dynamic driver appears to be vented in both the back of the housing (in a stylish triangle shape) and a pin hole side vent. Some driver flex was experienced and seems to be normal.
Bass first and warm are the descriptors that most quickly come to mind. The low end extends fairly deep, with 30hz test tones easily heard and rolling off from there, and produces nice rumble. Mid bass has plenty of impact and presence. Bass seems to have longer decay times, helping to give the impression of even greater bass presence.
Mids and vocals are somewhat forward. I say somewhat because they are clearly behind the bass but in front of the treble. While vocals are clear, there is definitely warmth injected from the generous and plentiful bottom end.
Treble clearly takes the back seat in the presentation. It is very laid back and subdued. Obviously resolution and micro-detailing is clearly sacrificed with this kind of presentation but then there is zero fatigue. Greatest treble emphasis is at 5k and 9k with a dip in between and roll off up top.
While being too colored and dark for my preferences, I can certainly see bassheads on a budget and others looking for a workout, yard work or noisy commute phones on a budget being interested in this new offering from NuForce.

Scarlett Johansson Named Playboy's Sexiest Celeb
Scarlett Johansson has beaten out a list of deserving beauties to top Playboy's annual 25 Sexiest Celebrities list.
The 22-year-old actress' "sensuality" and "beauty" saw off stiff competition from Angelina Jolie, Beyonce Knowles and Jessica Alba.
The adult magazine writes: "Scarlett Johansson is the apex of beauty and sensuality - from her porcelain skin to her fully feminine figure to her mysterious charisma, which is at once palpable and indefinable."
While the magazine makes it clear that Scarlett is their sexiest woman, the magazine did not assign rankings to the 24 other starlets who made up the list. This surely helps the magazine to reduce the chance of bitterness or conflict among the women over rankings.
Other names to make it onto the sexy list include Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton, Carmen Electra and Pamela Anderson.
Meanwhile, Scarlett is rumored to be the front-runner to play adult movie superstar Jenna Jameson in a movie adaptation of her autobiography, 'How To Make Love Like A Porn Star: A Cautionary Tale.'
Jenna, 32, was heard showing her admiration for The Prestige actress last month.
The adult film star said: "We're looking at Scarlett Johansson. She's my choice. I think she's beautiful."
Playboy's 25 Sexiest Celebrities list:
No. 1 - Scarlett Johansson
The rest (in no particular order):
Christina Aguilera
Pussycat Dolls

Myspace's 1,100 employees are bracing for a layoff that could slash up to half its workforce.
Sources close to the sagging social-networking company, which has been battered by the meteoric rise of one-time rival Facebook, say the cutbacks are imminent but had no other specifics. The sources asked not to be named because they are not authorized to speak on behalf of Myspace.
Myspace spokeswoman Laurie Spindler declined comment.
The Beverly Hills, Calif.-based company, which is owned by News Corp, has burned through CEOs, performed a couple of facelifts on its design and even inked a content-sharing deal with Facebook to reinvigorate its flagging audience. But the company's latest machinations haven't done the trick, the sources and analysts say.
Myspace's audience melted to 81.5 million members in November 2010 from 108.1 million in November 2009, according to market researcher comScore. In the past year, Facebook zoomed to 500 million members from about 350 million.
"The end was in sight before (former CEO) Chris (DeWolfe) left (in 2009)," says Jeremiah Owyang, an analyst at market research firm Altimeter Group. "They didn't innovate for years, while Facebook did. It comes down to culture and leadership. Myspace did not evolve its business model. It stuck with its young demographic, and made minimal changes until it was too late."
The fall is particularly humbling for Myspace, which long ago was king of the hill in the social-networking world. But it lost its mojo several years ago when Facebook became available to everyone and it continues to suffer at the hands of Facebook and others, including Twitter and Yelp.
Indeed, Owyang openly wonders if Facebook -- flush with cash -- might approach News Corp about scooping up Myspace and consolidating an otherwise crowded market.
Facebook has reportedly raised another $500 million in funding from Goldman Sachs and a Russian investor. The investments have helped balloon Facebook's valuation to an astounding $50 billion -- more than either Yahoo, eBay or Time Warner.
An initial public offering could be in the offing in 2012, suggest some analysts.

Help redo my hardwood floors...
I am wanting to redo my hardwood floors. It is 1960's style oak. 1" wide strips about 1/4 thick with a natural shellac/varnish on top. What brand of stain and finish coating is recommended? I went to the HD and they have Varathane and Minwax brands. Oil versus water based?
Anything i need to be aware of for sanding the floor? What grit should i use?
Never done a floor before so any tips would be useful thanks
If it's only 1/4" thick it's not hardwood it's laminite flooring and can not be refinished.
Hardwood would be 3/4" thick.
If 1/4 was a typo I'd strongly suggest hiring this out to a real floor refinishing company.
Reason being is by the time you spend the time to go rent the equipment, pay for the rental, buy the sand paper, cleaning supplys, stain, poly, applacator, then have to spend the time to figure out how they all work, do the job and return everything they would have been done and gone and not cost much more and will end up with a better looking job.
a lot of the older houses i worked in when i lived in the buffalo area had 1/4 oak flooring similar to what bcbud describes. if you have a heat vent you can remove and check the floor thickness. a picture would be most helpful also
So how do you suppose it was held down to the floor?
I know difference between laminate and real hardwood. This was nailed down straight through the top. Each hole was then filled over. Don't take this the wrong way, but you have over 13,000 posts and have never seen 1/4 oak flooring nailed to a 1/2 subfloor?
Never once and most of my work has been on 100 plus year old houses.
some of it that i saw was tongue and groove and some wasn't. if you decide to sand them i would take off as little as possible or you might find that you sanded down to the tongue.
And into the nail heads with no way to sink them without poping them through the flooring.
Sounds more like someone tryed using paneling to cover the floor.
No that I've seen, what a mess.

If I recall my SIL used water base poly on this parquet floor but if I can remember to check tomorrow I'll ask him. This DIY project was different than yours will be as we ( family project ) took up about 1,200 tiles and ran them through a drum sander at two different grits. The real labor intensive part was removing all the years of floor wax build up at the joints and random orbit sanding in areas the drum sander didn't get. Whatever he used it has held well to a small dog traffic.

it is this type of floor..this is not how my floor looks right now but i wish it did
As a DIYer I've sanded hardwood floors about five different times. On two occasions the sanding was done on newly installed boards so there was a lot of material that had to be removed to get the finish smooth. Saw dust everywhere, shoulders, arms and back aching for days, and a not quite so perfect job. If I needed to have floors sanded again I would take joecaption's advice and hire it out to the pros. When all is said and done, you won't save much money but will have all the headaches.

I did the floors in our 110+ year old house before we moved in back in October. It was quite a bit of work, but in the end the total was maybe $600 for sander rentals, sanding belts/discs, and poly. I used the Minwax quick dry oil based because we were moving in the next week and still had to finish a bathroom.
Total was around 1500 sq ft, so at $3/sq ft that would have been $4500 or so, or about $3900 more than I spent, though it would be marginally prettier. After you put the furniture in though, it's not as noticeable.
Our first floor is very similar, 3/8" oak strips over tongue & groove subfloor. It was not original. The second floor is original heart pine, absolutely beautiful if done right.
I'd rate my job a B- mainly because the upstairs had a ton of wood filler between the pine boards that really should have been scraped out and redone. Since we didn't do that, pieces/dust would come up when I was laying the poly so our finish has a lot of 'stuff' in it, but really it matches the character of the wood and you don't notice it unless you're looking.
Pics of before/during/after for the oak downstairs and pine upstairs.
Don't short yourself with the B SuperJETT. They look terrific in my opinion and you have a right to be proud for years to come.
It's one of those things where I notice every little imperfection because I did them and I think about how I could have done it better. I'll never refinish the downstairs, not enough meat left in the overlay since it was only 3/8" to begin with. It will be replaced with hardwood next time we do anything with it. That's why I couldn't sand down enough to get rid of the traffic pattern and pet stains on the first floor. The heart pine upstairs liked to gum up the belts/discs so it was hard in that respect.
Thanks for the compliment.

Well it's been over a year. Geogia gravitated to China and he was her safety net when she arrived. He passed away unexpectedly a few months ago due to conjestive heart failure. I have been patiently waiting for Georgia to finally give me a chance and trust me a little. I never crowded her, just petted her and told her I loved her and how beautiful she was and of course gave her her morning treats. For the longest time she would sit next to me and just stare. All the others would climb on top of me when I sat down and find a comfortable spot.
So....the last couple of months she has wanted to cuddle with her mama. It is just the sweetest thing. I feel like I won the lotto. Georgia finally trusts me and loves me even though I am a human!! Yipee!!!!
-- The Mama
OK, I think I like it here. It took me a little while to figure it out. I snuggle with everyone now but my favorite is still China and Sassy. I sleep on the bed next to China every night. Sometimes my new Mama snuggles with me and puts me under the covers but I wiggle all the way down to the end and Mama thinks I can't breath. I love treat time and when Mama comes home from work (probably because that is right before I go outside and have another treat time) Everyone loves me a whole lot and I guess I'm starting to love everyone right back.
I am bonding pretty well with EVERYONE. My new Mama wished I was bonding more with her than with all the furbabies but I keep telling her "give me some time; I've kind of been through a lot". My favorite thing in my new home is these very comfortable doggy beds. I didn't want to share at first but now that its been a couple of weeks, I think I like the snuggles of Teddy, Henry, Sassy, China and Topsy. China and Sassy are pretty cool. In the morning everyone comes up to me to sniff me and say good morning. It sure is nice to have a big family who cares so much about me. Oh and I went to the vet and my blood work and x-ray came back and the vet said it all looked beautiful just like me.

Yankees Groundbreaking Gets Bronx Cheers (Both Kinds)
New York, NY —
Yankee Stadium, the Bronx home to dreams, memories and legendary baseball greats, is facing its demise. The white tents are up for today's groundbreaking ceremony that will herald the launch of a new $800 million, state-of-the-art stadium. But as WNYC's Elaine Rivera reports, not everyone in the community is happy.
REPORTER: Businessmen and politicians say it is the real beginning of a Renaissance in the South Bronx. Bronx Borough President Adolfo Carrion, whose borough was once a symbol of urban blight, says more jobs, businesses and new parks will follow.
CARRION: This is a coming of the age of the Bronx in its economy, in its relationship with the New York Yankees. It really is just more about a stadium. It's the redevelopment of an entire community.
REPORTER: Yet many residents who live near the site say the project will create a 14-story monstrosity. Joyce Hogi, of the grass roots organization Save Our Parks, say hundreds of families along Jerome Avenue will be adversely affected. More than 20 acres of parkland will disappear. Neighbors now face rerouted traffic and construction noise.
HOGI : That's the most egregious part of this project is that it's being done and nobody seems to care. Nobody seems to think there's anything wrong with plopping this stadium in somebody's front yard.
REPORTER: Althea Hunter is an 81-year-old resident who lives in a classic art deco building right across the street from the site. On Sunday she went for her daily exercise in the park. On Monday she was turned away.
HUNTER: I was stopped by the officer and the staff who said you can't go through there - that's private property now as of 12 o clock last night. I asked who could I get permission from to go and walk and they said there will not be anymore walking in that park.
REPORTER: Residents feel like the the stadium was always a done deal and they really didn't have a say. Angry, divided feelings remain. Some business owners like Joey Bastone says the new stadium will bring other benefits to the neighborhood. Bastone is the owner of Yankee Tavern a longtime fixture where locals intermingle with Yankee fans during baseball season.
BASTONE: That means there will be more stores for people to shop in our neighborhood, which should bring more traffic to our neighborhood, better restaurants, better maybe retail stores. You know, an up for the neighborhood.
REPORTER: But Joyce Hogi says it's not the creation of a new stadium but it's where they are placing it.
HOGI: None of us in this community are opposed to change. Actually, we welcome it. But to take away public parkland from the community is just egregious. It's an absolute kick in the teeth to the people who live here.
REPORTER: Carrion says that community residents should be patient. New parks will eventually be constructed.
CARRION: In the end when we get to the other side of the construction, they and we have a new park, they will be the immediate beneficiaries of a much, much better system of parks.
REPORTER: Residents say it will not make up for the loss of their current beloved landscape, the destruction of hundreds of trees and a quiet way of life that will now vanish.
HUNTER: I am 81 years old and I can enjoy a park right now If I have to wait until 09 or thereafter who knows what condition I'll be in I may not be able to enjoy a park I may be so senile that I don't even know what a park is. Now you get with that."
REPORTER: Groundbreaking begins today at 10 a.m.

When UC lost its second quarterback of the year last week at Akron, many Herd fans assumed the Thundering Herd defense could take advantage of one of two red-shirt freshmen on the Cincinnati roster, Zach Collaros or Chazz Anderson. It turned out Anderson, in his first ever start and first ever college action, out-played Marshall's red-shirt frosh QB, Mark Cann, who had a second-straight sub-par performance against a Big East team.

Cann had a 17-of-36 day, with three interceptions and three sacks, throwing for only 178 yards, and one touchdown, a 57-yard strike to Cody Slate in the third quarter that closed the 16-3 Bearcat halftime edge to 16-10. Slate had a big day against the Bearcats, with seven catches for 96 yards and the score, while Darius Passmore had seven catches also, but for just 47 yards.
After the Herd cut it to six, back came UC as Anderson would find Dominique Goodman for his second touchdown of the game from seven yards out and push the score to 23-10 with 7:13 to play and the Herd never threatened again. Goodman caught a 14-yard touchdown pass from Anderson in the second quarter, to give UC a 16-0 lead in the game.

Anderson was 16-of-26 passing, with one interception. He threw 158 yards and two touchdowns, plus ran for a touchdown in the fourth quarter to ice the game for UC, 33-10. Anderson rushed eight times for minus-24 yards overall, thanks to three sacks for the Herd by Mario Harvey, who had two and forced a fumble, and Albert McClellan and Brandon Burns, who shared a sack.
However, the game was very much like last years game at Nippert Stadium, when UC dominated the Herd for a 40-14 win over Marshall. In the last eight quarters, Marshall has scored just two field goals and one touchdown, and the Herd's head man was not happy with his team's effort in a second straight game with a Big East opponent, falling 27-3 last week to WVU.
"We knew our opportunities were minimal against a very good defense. Instead of moving forward we moved backwards," said Mark Snyder. "We shot ourselves in the foot." Snyder was especially with the breakdowns in the punting game. "We tell our team that special teams can make something happen on the road, and the blocked punt, that can't happen," said Snyder. "That turned them on a little bit. I thought the rest of special teams were solid." In fact, Chubb Small returned one punt for 25 yards and one kick for 21 yards, while Darius Marshall had five returns for 92 yards. But Kase Whitehead punted six times for just 37.3 yards per kick, put three inside the 20-yard line but had two blocked and one was for a safety and a 2-0 UC lead at the end of the first quarter.

Snyder was not unhappy with his defense, until late in the game when the Bearcats just ran at will up and down the field. "Defense was in a lot of bad positions, with the free kick, the turnovers. I was a little dissapointed in fourth quarter when they pounded us, because you can never give up."
The good news is the Herd has a week off to heal up and get ready to finish the year in Conference play only, starting with a trip on October 18 to historic Legion Field in Birmingham, Alabama to open with the 1-5, 0-2 in C-USA Blazers. "We take a couples of week to get ready and go to UAB, try and get a win and go to 3-0. All of our goals are still in front of us." Marshall is 2-0 in league play, with wins over Memphis and Southern Miss, both East Division rivals.

At halftime, the Herd trailed in every category: 16-3 on the scoreboard, 122 to 119 in total offense, two turnovers to one, one blocked punt for a safety to none. Cann looked more like the red-shirt freshman in his first start than Anderson. Cann hit 9-of-19 for 78 yards and two interceptions, while Anderson had 10-of-17 and one interception, by Brandon Burns on a pass tipped by Delvin Johnson.
Marshall would only score three in the first half, with 2:05 to play, on a Craig Rantanamorn 50-yard field goal. That tied the last longest kick by Anthony Binswanger, who hit a 50-yard field goal against UCF back on October 4, 2006, in a 23-22 loss to the Knights.
The Herd was out-gained by the Bearcats by nearly 100 yards, 361 to 268, and Marshall once again was held under 100 yards rushing. Small led the Herd with 62 yards on seven carries, but Marshall took 25 yards in losses and settled for just 90 net yards rushing. Marshall turned the ball over three times, to just two for the Bearcats. UC also won the punting battle, with Kevin Huber punting six times for a 43.5 yard average to eight MU punts for a 30.8 yard per punt average.

Beer Tree Strengthens Relationship Between Craftsman, Product
Gravity-fed brewing kit beautifies the process of making your own beer
Brewing your own beer boasts a long list of benefits including mental stimulation, less hangovers, more savings, and the option to call yourself a craftsman. Freddie Paul, a London-based designer, is unlikely to argue, but he did notice one problem – the equipment isn't very easy on the eye. As a result, he's come up with the "Beer Tree," a gravity fed home brewing kit that not only streamlines the process crafting your own ales, but stylises it as well.
The problem with traditional brewing kits is that they're usually a collection of plastic barrels and tangled tubes that lie scattered around the room – more often than not an unseen room like the garage. If you were to use a Beer Tree instead, "the process can be completely visualised from start to finish, involving the user more than traditional kits to create a strong sense of satisfaction."
Completed for his final project at London South Bank university, the tree is made from removable vessels, detachable hoses, and stainless steel tubes that feed into a laminated plywood base. With a strong focus on the brewing kit's appearance, it might now be able to attract a complement or two from guests who see it in the corner of your living room.
The top-to-bottom layout also makes it more fun to follow the brewing process from start to finish. Moving back and forth between disorganised containers makes it hard to appreciate the methodical progression that occurs while brewing. In terms of output, Freddie's kit is capable of producing ten liters of craft ale in approximately ten days: four hours brewing, two days fermenting, one day chilling, and then several days conditioning in bottles.
If you've considered brewing your own beer, but shied away because of the clutter it would cause in your house – Beer Tree might just be the answer you were looking for. There are no production plans so far, but if enough people express their interest to the designer, it wouldn't be that surprising to see a crowdfunding campaign pop up at some point over the next few weeks or months.

Guide for Students - Before You Start Searching
Before you start searching there are a number of things you need to consider, such as where you want to live, if you want to live with others and what you can afford. Below is a list of various things to consider:
Finances - Work out a budget
- Work out a weekly/fortnightly budget: How much money do you have for rent? - Be realistic, do not look for rentals that you cannot afford and make sure you have enough money left over for food and transport costs.
- Rent (on average) can be anywhere between $100-$200 per week for a room in a shared house, and upwards of $250 for a property, depending on the location and/or what is included in the cost of rent.
- Consider the difference that the distance from the University makes to your budget. Living closer to Uni may cost more in rent, but you may save on travel each day and vice versa. Don't forget that increased travel time may take away your time for study or part-time work.
- Bond payments and rent in advance: Bond is like a security deposit that is held until you move out, it can be anywhere between 1-4 weeks rent. Providers can ask you to pay up to two weeks rent in advance. Do you have enough money to pay for bond and rent in advance?
Location - Where do you want to live?
- Do you rely on public transport? If so, consider living in accommodation on the main public transport routes.
- Will you look for part time work? Think of where you will look for work and how you will get to your workplace.
- Is being close to a shopping centre important to you?
Transport - How will you get around?
- Consider how you will get to and from Uni: car, bus, bicycle or walk?
Facilities - What facilities do you want from your rental?
- What sort of space are you looking for? Keep in mind, the size, location and what is included, does vary the cost of rent.
- Do you wish to have your own room? What facilities do you want in your room? e.g. bed, desk, chair.
- Are you willing to share a bathroom? Most rooms that have their own bathroom may cost more, decide if the difference in cost is worth it to you.
People - Do you want to share a house or live alone?
The people you live with largely influence the atmosphere in your new home and it's important to remember this when deciding who will be suitable to live with and whether you will get along well as housemates.
- Who do you want to live with?
- Do you want to live with several people, or only one or two?
- Do you want to live in a family situation, or with friends?
- If you would prefer to live alone, please be aware that it will cost more than if you were to share.
• If you are looking for a rental property or share accommodation: how much time will you need to look for a place?
• Do you have the money for bond and the first month's rent?
• Do you know your rights and responsibilities as a tenant?
• Do you have friends who also want to establish a house?
Questions to ask
Before you look at moving into a property, it is a good idea to think about all the questions you need to ask and the information you require from the agent, landlord or share house tenants. You will probably be surprised at the things you think of when you write the list of things you want to know. Here are some examples of questions you can include in your own checklist:
About the Property
• Is your property still available for rent?
• What date is it available?
• What is the exact address and how do I get there?
Rent, Lease and Bond
• How much is the rent per week?
• Does the rent include utilities - is the cost of water, electricity, phone, internet included?
• Do I have to pay a bond? How much is it? When I leave, how is the money refunded to me?
• Do I have to pay rent in advance? If so, how many weeks?
• Are there any other charges?
• What is the type of lease - fixed or periodic? I will only be here for a few months - is that OK? What about the lease arrangements?
• How much notice will I have to give if I want to leave?
• Is the place furnished with kitchenware, fridge, tables, desks, TV, lounge, washer, dryer, phone?
• Is the bedroom furnished with a bed, desk, wardrobe, linen, and pillows?
• What will I need to buy before moving in?
Location and Security
• Is the property within walking distance of the University?
• How close is the bus stop that goes to the University and how long is the trip?
• How close is the shopping centre where I can buy food and other groceries?
• How safe is the neighbourhood?
• Are there good locks on the doors and windows?
• Is there a place to park my bike or car?
Share House Living
• Can you tell me about the other people living in the house?
• What parts of the house (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, living room) are shared and by how many people?
• Will it provide the right study environment or will there be too many distractions?
• Will it provide social interaction with other students?
