Pop-up Blocked…er, 'Tocked!
Bella says: "Oh Charlie, grow up. We don't want to see your fuzzy bum!"
Bella says: "Oh Charlie, grow up. We don't want to see your fuzzy bum!"
But it is so cute
Lovely pups, and lovely tocks!
Adorable! I just had to give my little Charlie a back/hip rub after seeing this picture. Our little pals are SO fluffy during the cold seasons!
Furry tocks are very cozy finger warmers, as well. And you can check/manipulate that rear leg for soundness while you're burrowed in there.
My boy used to regularly present me with his rear, requesting standing hip massages, which always brought a big smile to his face.
Thank you for providing my daily "sheltie fix." These two are absolutely lovely. I can tell they are lots of fun!!
So beautiful! Love it.
Very beautiful and cute!
Where else in the world are you going to see 'tocks as cute and muscular as these and just look at those eyes . . . they are saying, "Oh, alright! Go ahead, I KNOW you want to cop a feel!" and Little Bella in the background, saying mine is just as cute but because you got it doesn't mean you have to flaunt it!

Install Fix for Mathematica 5.0.1 Font on Linux Xorg/Fedora Core2
I've recently installed Mathematica 5.0.1 on a linux machine - RedHat Fedora Core 2 (with all updates) to be precise.
It appears that the installation does not correctly work with the new linux font server which is based on Xorg rather than X11R86.
This means certain cell types do not render their text at all making the help notebook almost unusable. For example, the section text "How To Type ..." in
2D Expression Input>Entering 2D expressions>Overview
are not rendered as white spaces (though copy-paste works).
- See the fonts section at:
My fix / hack for this was to add the following lines to the new linux font server configuration file: /etc/X11/fs/config
... and restart X windows ( you'll notice that /etc/init.d/xfs script does all the font re-hashing etc)
If you open this as an install bug please CC me the correct solution that you find. For example - which of the above entries should be tagged with 'unscaled'?
Thank you,
Lawrence Angrave.

Sword Art Online ~ Asuna -Aincrad- Ani-Statue (PP501)
A KOTOBUKIYA Japanese import! The next beautiful Ani*Statue from Kotobukiya comes from Sword Art Online, a Japanese light novel series by Reki Kawahara with illustrations by Abec that's been adapted into manga, anime, and a video game. First up is the main female protagonist of the game Sword Art
Online, ASUNA -AINCRAD-! A member (and sub-leader) of the Knights of the Blood Oath clan, Asuna's in-game avatar appears here in a stunning display as she seems to float in mid-air above a unique base with broken column and gold rings. The girl wears her clan's white and red "armor," a beautiful outfit highlighted by its blood red skirt, white top with long trailing coat, and tiny red crosses decorating the ensemble. In her right hand Asuna wields her iconic sword, though her smiling face reassures you that there's no danger she can't handle. The girl's dynamic pose and outfit are sure to be a hit with fans of the series as well as collectors of beautiful Ani*Statues! Sculpted by Hirotoshi Nakamura, Asuna is almost 8 ½ inches tall floating above her display base.

Im kinda new to the whole statue buying, but I love Koto stuff, and this was the first Anime inspired one I bought. I actually bought this on eBay, and was lucky enough to get a fake. How wonderful right? So in my search I found this gem of a site and took the chance on this item with the damaged box. I am SO GLAD I DID! This statue is amazing. Anime Island came through for me.

Like most Pioneer products, the BDP-51FD sports extensive picture calibration tools. Hit the Video Adjust button on the remote and a pop-up menu appears, offering a clutch of picture presets that cater for different display types, as well as a detailed range of user-defined settings that can be stored in three memory positions.
The sophisticated onscreen presentation makes the Pioneer a real pleasure to setup and install. The main Home menu screen, for example, is all black with crisp white text and flashy graphics, plus the icons along the bottom helpfully correspond with those on the remote. The setup menu is packed with options but never feels intimidating, and newcomers to Blu-ray may find the Setup Navigator useful.
The separate Tools menu presents you with a handful of options during playback (including the BonusView secondary video and audio settings), and its inclusion is useful because you can't access the setup menu without stopping disc playback, and most Blu-ray discs don't let you resume where you left off. Our only operational gripe is that the deck is a real slowcoach when it comes to booting up from standby or loading discs - The Dark Knight took 1 minute and 40 seconds to start up, which feels particularly cumbersome when compared with the lightning-quick LG BD300.
The deck comes with a slim remote that's comfortable to hold, and despite the buttons being slightly on the small side, the clever, intuitive arrangement lets you control the deck without having to gawp at it for ages searching for the right key. Thanks to the KURO Link option, the deck can also be controlled with the remote from a Pioneer TV or receiver connected to the deck's HDMI output.
Downgrading the high-definition video DAC from the LX71's 297MHz/12-bit chip to a 148.5MHz/12-bit version hasn't made a huge difference to the BDP-51FD's picture quality, which is, in short, phenomenal. Having tested most of the budget Blu-ray decks on the market, we can safely say that few of them come close to the Pioneer, making this by far the best performer in its class.
The Dark Knight on Blu-ray has rarely looked better. The BDP-51FD paints the film's epic visuals with cinematic richness, presenting Batman's black suit with unparalleled depth and making the contrasts between light and dark on Gotham City's streets look bold and distinct. It all contributes to a dense, punchy image that shows what the Blu-ray format is really capable of.

[This is a reposting of my teaching blog post]
In this post I describe how to create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI) from a customized Amazon Web Services (AWS) Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instance. The AMI allows software and data to be prepackaged and distributed to students for use in classroom exercises.
This post is a follow on to my Using Amazon Web Services in Teaching and Setting Up Sleuthkit and Autopsy on an AWS EC2 Instance posts. This post covers the creation of the AMI from the master EC2 instance, labeled "2" in the figure below.
The forensics (FOR) module I teach on the Software and Systems Security programme has exercises that allow the students to use cloud computing resources to perform forensic analysis. In the exercises the students use the Linux command line to investigate and analyze forensic evidence. By hosting the exercises on AWS the students experience first-hand the flexibility offered by cloud computing resources.
The EC2 instance is made with an Elastic Block Storage (EBS) volume that contains the software applications and the data that are needed for the exercises. I create and publish an AMI from that instance. The students then create their EC2 instances from the AMI. The EC2 instance is created and loaded with data loaded as described here. The EC2 instance must be secured and the keys removed from it before the AMI is created and published.
Take a Snapshot of the Instance's EBS Volume
Before securing the instance I made an EBS snapshot so I could roll back and start again, if necessary. I followed the instructions here to create the snapshot using the management console.
Secure the Instance
To secure the EC2 instance before making the AMI I followed the guidelines here. Additional articles on securing AMIs can be found here and here. I logged into the instance with two ssh sessions so that if one was lost I still had access to the instance. This also enables the complete deletion of .bash_history. Using the 1st ssh session I ran through the following tasks to secure the instance.
1. In the Ubuntu-based instance password-based logins for root are already disabled in /etc/ssh/sshd_config.
2. Disable root access with:
3. Remove SSH Host Key Pairs with:
4. Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config to include "UseDNS no".
5. Remove authorized keys with:
6. Log out of the 1st ssh session. Then in the 2nd ssh session run:
to delete the .bash_history created when the 1st ssh session closes. Log out of the 2nd ssh session. Stop the instance.
Create an EBS-backed AMI from the Instance
The guidelines for creating an Amazon EBS-Backed Linux AMI are here. I used the management console to create an AMI based on the EC2 instance.
1. Select the region you have the EC2 instance stored in.
2. Go to the EC2 Dashboard.
3. Select the INSTANCES –> Instances page.
4. Select the EC2 instance to be converted into an AMI.
5. Select Create Image from the Actions drop down list.
6. In the splash box enter a name for the image into the Image name field. Enter a description into the Image description field.
7. Then click Create Image.
Cleaning Up
Once you have deleted the keys from the EC2 instance used to create the AMI you will no longer be able to log into it. So I terminated the EC2 instance to delete it. In my case the EBS volume was protected against deletion on termination of the instance so I also had to delete the associated EBS volume manually.
Publishing The AMI Privately
To publish the AMI privately, use the EC2 Dashboard by going to the Images –> AMIs page, select the AMI you wish to share, select the Permissions tab. Click the Edit button and enter the AWS Account Numbers for those accounts you want to allow access to the AMI.
Those accounts you have shared the AMI with will find the AMI listed with the Filter set to Private Images on their Images –> AMI page in the region that the AMI was shared from.
To allow others to launch an AMI in another region you have to copy the image into that region. To copy the AMI to a different region, select Copy AMI from the Actions drop down list on the INSTANCES –> Instances page; choose the destination region and include a description. This will create a new AMI ID for the copied AMI.
Testing Shared AMI
I tested an instance created from the privately shared AMI to ensure that it functioned correctly. I tested the AMI using another account that had been given permissions to access the AMI that I had created. In addition, I ensured that the only keys in the instance were those from the test account by running the following command and inspecting the results:
Additional Posts
I have written additional posts that give more detail on the different aspects associated with using the AWS environment for my particular course. In the Using Amazon Web Services in Teaching post I give an overview of the AWS environment I created for my course, shown in the figure below.
1. In Setting Up Sleuthkit and Autopsy on an AWS EC2 Instance I describe how I create a master EC2 instance that holds the software and data for the exercises.
2. [This Post] In Creating an AMI for Classroom Use I outline how I created an AMI for sharing with the students.
3. The instructions Creating and Accessing the FOR2014 EC2 Instance for the FOR Course detail how the students should create an EC2 instance from the AMI.
4. The instructions Accessing Autopsy v2 on the FOR2014 EC2 Instance detail how to configure Autopsy on the FOR2014 EC2 instance for access from the student's local computer.

I made a template couple of days ago, but i got rejected, so you can download it free now:)
I really like the concept, but I think if you would have made it a little more intuitive as far as where to point your mouse cursor for the logo/nav and thumbnails, it may have been approved.
But hey, it's nice of you to release it for free too
That's actually a really nice looking template. as Js said, if you maybe make it a little more obvious that that tab sildes out (maybe a small arrow pointing right), and add a little more spacing around the title, I would resubmit it.
P.S. Also, where did you get the sample photos to use in the template?
broken link for download
Thanks, i add a little arrow to the logo. Sample photos: If you select the custom menu, you can see.
broken link for download
Sorry, i fixed it:)
just downloaded the template and tried it. navigating around the pages is not intuitive, but Ido like it.
Not a bad, simle design, good work and nice for you to offer it free of charge
Nice work I like the concept

However, it does take one coach to coordinate all those efforts and oversee personnel on game days. Discher will do that and with his experience at Sam Houston State also do most of the scheming and scouting for the special teams units.
At Sam Houston State, Discher, who came on board in March of 2010, coached the kickers, punters, and snappers as well as coordinated the special teams. Discher is also single, and that makes it easier to jump in as a graduate assistant. Linder, who left after the Cotton Bowl, went to North Carolina as a graduate assistant to help with special teams there.
The information below comes courtesy of Robby Discher's bio in the Sam Houston State football media guide.
Kicker Miguel Antonio stands as Sam Houston's all-time leader in kick scoring with 324 points. Matt Foster completed his Bearkat career ranked fifth in all-time punting with a 40.7 average.
Ken Jones was perfect on PAT/field goal snaps as well as punt snaps in 2011.
Sam Houston State return specialists Brandon Closner finished his career as the Bearkats all-time leading kickoff returner in school history with 1,734 career yards. He set the record with his 81 yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Montana State in the 2011 FCS Quarterfinals. Closner is also the school's second all-time leader in punt return yards, with 753.
Prior to his move to Huntsville, Discher served as an assistant coach at Kearney (Mo.) High School working with quarterbacks and outside linebackers for one season. In his one season with Kearney, the Bulldogs piled up a 13-2 record and won the Missouri Class 4 State Championship.
Prior to coaching, Discher played collegiately at William Jewell College, in Liberty, Mo., from 2006 to 2008. He was a wide receiver for the Cardinals.
He graduated from William Jewell College in 2009 with a degree in Secondary Education and Physical Education. Discher went on to earn his master's degree from Sam Houston State in 2012 in Kinesiology: Exercise Science. The Kansas City, Mo., native attended high school at North Kansas City High School.


text: Yesterday afternoon a judge threw out the entire lawsuit of Sam Lutfi, because he had not proven his case. Lutfi had sued Britney for unpaid fees, Lynne Spears for defamation and Jamie Spears for punching him. The testimony had a whole lot of dirt, but not much substance and Judge Suzanne Brugera threw the whole thing out. The Spears' attorneys were excited while Lutfi says he plans on appealing and then sinking his claws a little deeper into Courtney Love.

Filmmaker Creates Short Film Written By A Robot [Video]
Cleverbot co-writes a movie titled, "Do you Love Me."
Cleverbot is an artificial intelligence app that allows users to chat to it and create a real-time conversation. The robot is able to simulate human interactions by using an advanced algorithm that takes into account a user's previous chats. Already, over 65-million discussions have been saved. Recently, filmmaker Chris Wilson produced a short film with the help of Cleverbot.
Wilson asked Cleverbot to help come up with the names of the characters and assist with the scripting and dialogs. The outcome is quite hilarious and somewhat absurd and nonsensical. It shows that there's still a long way to go before a blockbuster movie is directed by artificial intelligence.
The title of the film, "Do You Love Me" features characters named Stomach, Prometheus, and Robert. Watch the short film below, and you can follow the conversation Wilson had with Cleverbot via the description in the video.

The Iraq election is over–for now, at least. Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki who last week derided complaints from opposition parties which demanded a recount of votes cast, changed his view when it became clear his party was trailing by about 11,000 votes. He insisted there be a recount in order to prove his coalition was the winner. He asked the election commission to immediately answer the demands of political parties(mine, that is)to proceed with a manual recount in order to "protect political stability." The commission is not willing to proceed with a national recount, but left open the door for local reviews.
The good news is how close were final vote totals between the two major competing coalitions. It proves there was a free election, but that is only the initial step for peace. Both parties for the coming years should form a coalition in order to foster stability and deal with major problems of reconstruction.

Well last night was unpleasant. I was at the university campus with Sweet Pea, waiting patiently for the queen bee to finish milling her wood. Well finally after listening to the jointer and planer run for what seemed like hours, she decided to take us for a walk on campus. I love that campus, so much space and so pretty. Well towards the end of the walk I saw a grumpy man so I barked at him. WELL that pissed him off and he continued to RANT at her - "Excuse me, is that your dog? You know you should LEASH your dogs on this property. You're sorry? well thats not enough.Hey are you listening to me?? do you speak english? I am talking to you. Oh, you're deaf - oh SORRY. Yes I see you have them back on leashes,well I am still talkin to you. Well did you know that if your dog barks that is classified as an Aggressive Dog? And I can call campus police right now. And you WILL get fined. And if that dog nipped at me, can you say LAWSUIT? What are you doing here on this campus? Are you a student here? you know students cannot bring dogs here. Oh, you say... what? Do you work here? Oh you do, do you? Well I can get you fired if I reported this to campus police. So keep those dogs leashed. Are we cool now? I know you said you were sorry. ok are we cool?"
That guy obviously needs a dog to keep him happy.
Today we went to the beach - coronado, to be exact - its Sweet Pea's favorite place - we also had Colby with us. Now I had been there once before and I was scared of the water. I got splashed by one wave once and I don't go near the water anymore. And I am still scared of water. Colby and Sweet Pea love the water, and I just don't get it. Sweet Pea makes me frustrated because I try to chase her and just when I am about to catch her, she heads for the water, danggit, and then I stop short.
Egads Monkey and I found this scary looking thing last night, a moth, fricking HUGE. Monkey was possessed, trying to catch it, and one time it flew in my face and it scared the heck out of me. I'm such a scaredy cat, er dog.
The other day me, SweetPea and DeAnza went to a new dog park. well it wasn't new but it was the first time I've been there, we went to Grape Street Dog Park, wow what a lot of fun, lots and lots of other dogs, there must have been at least 100 dogs there!! Everyone was pretty friendly and there were lots of poop bags available. However QB played a nasty trick on me, I guess I kept running off and so she and Sweet Pea hid behind a big tree, and at some point after I finished being a smartass, I realized I couldn't find my pack. god I panicked, I was so worried that they left me, I went to see if the car was still there, and then ran all around the park. Then I saw Sweet Pea Deanza and QB hiding behind that tree. I was so mad but I was so glad to see them that I forgot about being mad. I won't be running off again.

My Mini-Bathroom Fixer-Upper
I don't have the time to dedicate to a full-on bathroom redo and certainly don't have the cash to get someone else to do it, so I am doing a few things to make it a little nicer for my boys!
I started off with a few simple goals:
Here is a close-up of the ceiling:
Peeling wallpaper, peeling paint on the ceiling...pretty disgusting. So, I went about tearing down all the paper on the inside of the shower, scraping the ceiling with a paint scraper, and then using a rough-grit sandpaper on a hand-sander to go over everything. All the old drywall nails that poked out were pulled and replaced with much better drywall screws:
As for the ceiling fan, the idiots who owned the house before me secured it with (get this) 2 wood screws randomly screwed from the inside of the unit into one of the joists in the attic. That's it.
So, one day when I accidentally stepped on it while up in the attic, my leg damn-near went through the ceiling. Ever since then, the drywall around the fan had just been supported by the pressure of the grate that attaches to the underside of the fan unit. So, last nite before I went to bed I went up into the attic and braced it as best I could (which is pretty good) and made some initial repairs to the ceiling:
Now, the room looks like this:
You can see the ceiling looks immensely better. Next, I gotta run out and pick up some spackle to fill some small holes. More to come...
Here's a little bit of an update!
OK, so I coated the walls and ceiling with a thin layer of joint compound. No more crackling paint - I know it's hard to see, but this is the ceiling in the same spot I posted above:
And I continued my ceiling fan/vent repair. Spackled over more pits and holes and painted the fan with Rust-Oleum Appliance Epoxy (White). That way when you look up through the vent you won't see the disgusting rusted mess!
Tomorrow I'll be sanding everything down with a couple sanding blocks and then applying a coat of Binz.
Must have more time paticiance then I do. I would have just gutted it and started over.
All finished! So, for about $150 I have really upgraded the room, and my mom won't be able to complain about chipping paint or peeling paper! Towel racks and an above-toilet cabinet will come in the future, but this is great for right now.
So, I painted the vent, again with Rust-Oleum Appliance Epoxy (White), and reinstalled it. With the guts painted glossy white, you dont look through the vent and see grey, rusting crap anymore:
Then I replaced the switchplate! The icing on the cake!

text: TORONTO, Aug. 25, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - PetroMagdalena Energy Corp. (TSXV: PMD) announced today that it has signed a letter of intent to farm out 30% of the Santa Cruz Block, in which the Company holds a 100% working interest, for a carry of 60% of the first exploratory well to be drilled on the block and 45% of the second exploratory well. The Santa Cruz Block is located in the Catatumbo Basin in Colombia and neighbours the producing Rio Zulia field. The Company expects to have its environmental permit shortly and to commence drilling of the first exploratory well, estimated to cost approximately US$15 million, in the fourth quarter this year. PetroMagdalena will retain a 70% working interest in the block and remain as operator. Commenting on the farm-out agreement, Luciano Biondi, the Company's Chief Executive Officer stated, "We are very pleased to announce this farm out agreement as it diversifies our exploration risk, maintains our upside opportunity from a new discovery and frees up approximately US$8-9 million of funding in this year's budget which had been allocated to Santa Cruz. Consistent with our strategic focus on our core oil assets, we will invest these funds in the expanded work program at Cubiro following the Petirojo discovery announced on Monday, including a development well and an exploration well in Cubiro Block B in addition to accelerating the workover candidates at Cubiro." The Company also announced that it is continuing to take steps to improve the netbacks from its operations at Cubiro. Earlier this year, the Company announced that it had implemented an improved marketing contract with Pacific Rubiales Energy Corp. to deliver its oil from Cubiro through multiple delivery points to the existing Colombian pipeline infrastructure. Initially, oil deliveries were directed to the Rubiales field with the Company's selling price based on a formula that resulted in it receiving, on average, WTI minus $7/bbl. Commencing in July 2011, the Company is now delivering 100% of its oil under the marketing agreement with Pacific Rubiales to Guaduas due to the high quality of its oil from Cubiro, which is now sold as Vasconia, resulting in an improved selling price compared with WTI. Vasconia has increased against WTI over the past year and is actually selling today at US$19/bbl over WTI. The Company's oil sales for the month of July were equivalent to WTI plus US$10/bbl using Vasconia as the benchmark. This is a US$17/bbl improvement in oil selling price versus the previous arrangement. With transportation costs approximately US$7/bbl higher to deliver through Guaduas, the net improvement in the netback structure in the oil marketing agreement is approximately US$10/bbl. The Company continues to evaluate additional opportunities to improve its netbacks through price enhancement and cost reductions. PetroMagdalena is a Canadian-based oil and gas exploration and production company, with working interests in 19 properties in five basins in Colombia.

text: Today is the day we've all been waiting for! We get to open the biggest present under the tree in about 14 hours. Here are my current, and almost final thoughts... - I have no idea what's going to happen, and have truthfully resigned myself to the fact that whoever we take is going to be a solid option that I'm neither in love with or hate. I can find pros and cons to every possible scenario (other than Cox/Barron sliding to 14- no cons there). I'm at a mental state where I don't feel like I'll be too upset no matter what happens, and that's never a bad thing - If I had a gun to my head and had to make a prediction I'd say we sit tight and the pick is Michael Brockers. And that wouldn't upset me at all. We need a beast on the DL, and he fits that description. Raw as the reddest of meats, but a whole heck of a lot to work with, and if his first year path goes similar to Tyron's then he's going to be our 2nd best DL by mid season. The sky is the limit for him and I love his length, strength, and on-field character. Here is my Big Board, by the way... 1) Andrew Luck Stanford 2) Robert Griffin III Baylor 3) Morris Claiborne LSU 4) Trent Richardson Alabama 5) Fletcher Cox Mississippi State 6) Mark Barron Alabama 7) Michael Brockers LSU 8) David DeCastro Stanford 9) Justin Blackmon Oklahoma State 10) Matt Kalil USC 11) Melvin Ingram South Carolina 12) Stephon Gilmore South Carolina 13) Dont'a Hightower Alabama 14) Luke Kuechly Boston College 15) Dontari Poe Memphis 16) Shea McClellin Boise State 17) Dre Kirkpatrick Alabama 18) Cordy Glenn Georgia 19) Andre Branch Clemson 20) Whitney Mercilus Illinois Just a small sample (I did the top 100). Critique all you'd like. This is my actual and strict board, meaning I want us to take whoever is the highest player available, no questions asked. Hope everyone is as excited as I am.

"I just have a chip on my shoulder for not having the season last year that I wanted to due to my hamstring and getting off to a slow start," Evans told the Florida media this week. "I have been motivated by my teammates and family to get better."
Even after three years on campus, Evans said he still wasn't quite mature enough a year ago to get him prepared the right way.
"I came to the conclusion that I needed to take things a little more serious," he said. "Last year I was a little younger and didn't look at things like I look at them now. Being 21 and a little older and advanced I start to take things a little more serious and try to fix my game from last year and become better than what I was."
His teammates have noticed as well. Once a liability in the deep secondary a a position that could mean a touchdown if there is a breakdown, Evans has the trust of his teammates this season.
"He has improved his tackling from last year," junior cornerback Jaylen Watkins said. "I have hardly seen him miss a tackle. Most of the time when I am trying to make a tackle he is either over there close or making the tackle I should have made. He's improved tremendously from last year."
Evans says it just took a lot more dedication to get to the level he is at now. "With more film, meeting more with my coaches, and doing the best I can do for this team and to meet our goals," he said about his change in attitude this season.
For a guy like Evans it hasn't been easy and there have been obstacles. In his first three years on campus he went through three different defensive coordinators and secondary coaches. The blessing has been to have everything intact for his final two seasons on campus.
"It is real difficult trying to adapt to one thing and then that fast it can be something totally different," Evans said about the turnover on the staff. "Where I am at now, the familiarity has helped a lot. It helps as a player to play faster, smarter, and quicker. Also teammates are allowed to play quicker and faster as well. We play better as a team.
"I thought if we could just have something consistent or just stick to the script more, it would be helpful. You can see that all the adjustments we make with the same defensive coordinator, it helps."
Evans says the team loves the guys that coach them up. More of a professional approach, the Florida staff seems prepared more often than not and looks to have really coached their players to play at a different level.
"We talk about that sometimes," he said of conversations he has had with teammates about their coaches. "We are just honored ... we have a lot of great coaches on the staff that are willing to come in and give us extra time watching film. Some of them have experience in the NFL and that is an extra point for us to get information from."
He likes the soft spoken, but effective teaching he gets from defensive coordinator Dan Quinn who spent 12 years in the NFL as an assistant coach before coming to Gainesville. He has a good relationship with the defensive play caller.
"It's pretty fun," he said of the relationship the two have. "He's a great guy and someone that I would say is a mentor (outside of) football. I can talk to him about anything that is going on back home. We can relate… he's from New Jersey so we always have little chats.
"As a coach, his knowledge for the game is overboard. He knows so much and puts me in great situations to create plays on defense and other players like Matt Elam, Jon Bostic and Jelani Jenkins. He puts those guys in great situations to help his defense. It's amazing the scheme he has."
Evans credits people like Quinn, his teammates and family for getting him to the point he is at now. He has leaned on all of them to be prepared for this special senior season.
"My father is alike a friend to me too," Evans said. "I sat and talked to him. I talked to the coaches and asked them what I could do better or work on my game or take it more serious.
"Jelani is like a brother to me and we talk about ball all the time. I would say family, friends, and coaches are the main factors in me going out and having a good season so far."
There are just two home games left for Evans and the rest of the seniors. Homecoming is this weekend and they will be introduced to the crowd at Gator Growl. Evans has really learned to appreciate what he has, especially during this nice senior run.
"It's going to be very emotional," he said of facing the reality of the end of his career. "You come in and never think these four years will go by so fast. Here it is before my eyes, it's my last few games here. It is the chemistry of this team that will hurt the most. Not being able to play out there with your brothers and friends. I think everything is going pretty good so that we'll all leave with good memories.
"We had our ups and downs and knew what it felt like to lose. To go through that it made us bond closer together… to go out there and be better than a year ago."

Guitarist Akira Takasaki and drummer Munetaka Higuchi first played together during the mid-'70s in a mainstream rock band called Lazy. Unhappy with the band's direction, the duo split and decided to follow in the footsteps of Bow Wow (the first ever Japanese heavy metal band), forming Loudness with vocalist Minoru Niihara and bass player Masayoshi Yamashita. Combining a classic metal approach with
Takasaki's Eddie Van Halen-inspired guitar heroics, the band immediately scored local success with their first three albums, which were sung entirely in Japanese. But it wasn't until the release of their first live album, Live-Loud-Alive, and fourth studio effort Disillusion that the group attracted any significant attention outside their homeland, eventually issuing an English version of Disillusion.
Atlantic Records soon came calling and the band's international career began in earnest with 1985's Thunder in the East, which sold quite well in the U.S. for its novelty value, giving the band false hopes about their acceptance by Western metal audiences. Subsequent efforts, Lightning Strikes and Hurricane Eyes, were "made to order" records geared for the American market, and saw the band slowly drifting away from their roots towards a more commercial, pop-metal sound. All to no avail, and after recording 1988's independently-released Jealousy, the classic lineup's glory years came to an end with the firing of Niihara and the arrival of American-born singer Mike Vescera for 1989's Soldier of Fortune. 1991's disappointing On the Prowl saw them resort to re-recording watered down versions of some of their Japan-only material and would be the last to feature Vescera, who briefly joined the temperamental Yngwie J. Malmsteen's band.
Yamada Masaki, from rival Japanese metal band EZO, was brought in for Loudness' 1992 self-titled effort, 1994's Heavy Metal Hippies, and 1997's Ghetto Machine. The latter saw the departure of the band's long-time rhythm section being replaced by bassist Shibata Naoto and drummer Homma Hirotsugu. This lineup recorded two more albums, 1998's Dragon and 1999's Engine, after which it has been rumored that Takasaki welcomed back the original members for an as yet unconfirmed reunion. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, Rovi

Andrew Bynum's debut with the 76ers is on hold again.
GM Tony DiLeo claimed Saturday that Bynum is out indefinitely and there's no timetable set for his 1st game. The All-Star center was acquired from the Los Angeles Lakers in a 4-team trade before the season.
"We don't know when he'll be back," DiLeo declared. "Only Andrew's body can answer that question. When he feels better, we are able to step up the rehab program. We just have to wait to see how he responds to the rehab."
Bynum had been recovering from a bone bruise on his right knee and the 76ers were hoping he would be cleared to return to basketball activities by December 10. But he injured his left knee while bowling 2 weeks back and now his return has been pushed back 4 times since the start of training camp.
"I want to emphasize that we've been forthcoming and consistent with the information," DiLeo said. "We've declared all along that we need some patience and this is a hard-to-predict healing process. Andrew, how his body reacts is the indicator in when and how he will be able to take the very next step in his rehab program."
DiLeo related Bynum has "bilateral bone bruises and a weakened cartilage state" in his knees. Still, DiLeo protected the trade that sent All-Star forward Andre Iguodala to Denver in the multi-team deal. The Sixers are 7-5 in their first 12 games.
"We need to put this behind us now and focus on the rest of our team," DiLeo announced. "We don't know when he's coming back, but we have got a good team out there. We have got a great training staff that's doing a great job. We are playing hard each night and we need to focus on the team going forward."
Bynum, 25 years old, is in the final year of his agreement and could sign a 5-year deal more valuable than $100 million in the offseason, if he's healthy. But his doubtful standing might be costing the 7-footer millions.
"We are in charge of his rehab and right now he's just doing low-impact impact rehab things," DiLeo announced. "We are doing everything possible, leaving no stone unturned in consulting with the best experts in the world. We're looking into his rehab program, talking to doctors. We're doing everything feasible to get him back on the court because we want to see that and our fans want to see that."
DiLeo said the team is still hoping Bynum will heal but admits it already has to take a look at other scenarios.
"We hope that he will back; we're anticipating he'll be back at some point," DiLeo related. "We have plans for the future if he isn't back with us but we wish to plan on him being here long-term."
Bynum won 2 NBA titles in 7 seasons with the Lakers. The Sixers were hoping he could help them become one of the league's elite teams. Baseball scores

NYTs' awkward attempt to hype the Blago/Obama story
Blog ››› ››› ERIC BOEHLERT
We doubt this is how the craft is taught at Columbia J-School [emphasis added]:
Although prosecutors said Mr. Obama was not implicated in their investigation, the accusations of naked greed and brazen influence-peddling have raised questions from some about the political culture in which the President-elect began his career.
Notes Dan Kennedy:
Thus does [the Times' Jack] Healy follow two crucial rules in cranking out garbage like this: use the passive voice, and darkly allude to the raising of questions.
The larger point is that in order for the Beltway press to gin up the Blago story this week, basic journalism guidelines had to be set aside and in some cases brazenly ignored. That's the only way this story worked because simply reporting the facts as presented by the prosecutors would have made it painfully clear that, in terms of Obama's involvement, there was none. In fact, Obama had thwarted Blago's money-making scheme.
But that wasn't the story the press wanted to tell. (i.e. Obama the reformer rebukes corrupt local pol.) So lots of reporters and pundits consciously, and often systematically, took it upon themselves to make the story more appealing.
Oh yeah, who are the crucial "some" at the center of the all-important scandal? The Times later ID's them as "Republican leaders." In other words, partisan sniping. Well, that is newsworthy

Dr. No (1962)
Dr. No (1962) is the first of the James Bond series of action-packed spy thrillers, and it played a key role in establishing the Bond character as a recognizable icon in popular American contemporary culture. Bond began as a well-known literary figure in the works of British writer Ian Fleming (the first Bond book was Casino Royale, written in 1953). Terence Young, the film's director, went on to direct two other Bond films, From Russia With Love (1963), considered by many to be the definitive James Bond film, and the fourth film in the series, Thunderball (1965).
All James Bond films feature clever opening title sequences and trademark theme music, sexy and beautiful women, great diabolical villains, exotic, international locales, the calm manner and witty, subtle humor and repartee of the mythic hero 007, violence, terrific action sequences, stunts and chase scenes, narrow escapes, gimmicks, humor, and great cinematography. Its predictable formula stars the debonair, dashing and charming British "Secret Agent 007," James Bond, with great taste in clothes, wine, food, and exotic, sexy women.
This first feature in a long line of great Bond film sequels was much less gadget-ridden than later films. The plot of this low-budget film was a timely one - it capitalized on the problems America was having with missile launches, and the changing mood of the country in the early 1960's.The Story
The opening credits flash the titles on the screen with brilliant colors and sounds and feature silhouettes of beautiful girls and a gun-barrel - a look and feel which has remained consistent throughout subsequent Bond films. In the opening credits sequence, white dots travel across the screen, opening up into a gun barrel sight as the secret agent steps into view. He turns and fires toward the audience, causing a bloody-red color to wash over the screen. To a calypso beat, colorful silhouettes of erotic dancing girls undulate, to be replaced by the black silhouettes of three blind men moving in single file, tapping ahead of them with walking canes. The music becomes a calypso version of "Three Blind Mice."
Gradually, the silhouettes become realistic - three apparently-blind blacks tap their way down the street and into the driveway of the Queens Club (for private members only). On the veranda of the club, four men are seated playing bridge. One of them [later identified as Strangways (Tim Moxon)] rises and excuses himself to make a regularly-scheduled appointment, walking out onto the driveway of the club and passing the three blacks seen earlier. The man drops a coin in the cup of the first "blind" man. As he reaches his car and opens the door, he slumps down, shot in the back five times by guns fitted with silencers, held in the hands of the three men. A black hearse roars into view - the men load his body into the back and then jump in as it speeds off.
The second scene, producing even more unease in the viewer, is introduced by the opening of a creaking old iron gate (by an unidentified hand of a black man) outside a tropical garden and bungalow. On the gate hangs a mailbox marked: "Letter Box STRANGWAYS." Inside the bungalow, a woman opens up a bookcase which conceals a hidden ham radio set. She makes a call from there - "W6N" (Jamaica) to "G7W" (London), but from her sense of agitation, she expects someone to arrive who is overdue. As she stands and moves toward the door, she is startled by the sight of men standing at her windows. When she screams, glass breaks and she is spun to the ground when shot three times by the silenced guns. The killers enter and while two of them carry the woman's body out the door, a third rifles through a filing cabinet, locates and removes two folders titled "CRAB KEY" and "DOCTOR NO." In London, headquarters realizes that contact was broken with "W6N" in Jamaica, signalling trouble "during a routine transmission" and "it's not a technical fault."
The build-up to the introduction of the famous secret agent in the fancy gambling casino, Le Cercle (Les Ambassadeurs, London) Club is established with over a dozen different camera angles before Bond's face is actually seen. Playing cards at one of the chemin de fer gaming tables against a beautiful, wealthy and sexy brunette named Sylvia Trench (Eunice Gayson), James Bond (Sean Connery) introduces himself onscreen for the first time. He admires her willingness to continue playing against him (and losing elegantly), in a series of famous lines:
Bond (offscreen): I admire your courage, Miss...?
Sylvia: Trench, Sylvia Trench. I admire your luck. Mr...?
Bond (while casually lighting his cigarette): Bond - James Bond.
[Sylvia Trench has the dubious honor of being the very first Bond girl (even introduced before Bond himself), and she also reappeared in From Russia With Love (1963) briefly. She was to be a re-occurring character, but the idea was dropped. Trivia: she was the only Bond girl to appear as the same character twice in the films.]
Bond is called away to Secret Service Headquarters. After cashing in and setting up a dinner date with Miss Trench along with some verbal foreplay (Bond: "What other games do you play?" Sylvia: "Golf, among other things"), he reports to the office (disguised as a Universal Exports office) of Miss Moneypenny (Lois Maxwell), the secretary of the head of the Secret Service, and she shows her obvious interest in him:
[In the following sequences which are ritualistically repeated in later Bond films, Bond plays cat-and-mouse with his secretary who is mildly infatuated with him, and then learns the nature of his mission.]
Bond: Moneypenny? What gives?
Miss Moneypenny: Me - given an ounce of encouragement. You never take me to dinner looking like this, James. (She gestures toward his tuxedo) You never take me to dinner, period.
Bond: I would you know, only M would have me court-martialed for, uh, illegal use of government property.
Miss Moneypenny: Flattery will get you nowhere. But don't stop trying.
According to her, the case involves their Jamaican agent Strangways. Bond proceeds through the double-connecting doors from her office into the chief's office, Bond's crusty superior and the head of the British Secret Service named "M" (Bernard Lee). A set of red and green warning lights on the entry to the chief's office changes from red to green, signalling Bond to enter. After opening and entering through the leather-lined double-door entry, he finds the office warmly decorated with naval decor - ship models, paintings, and assorted bric-a-brac. It's 3 AM in the morning, prompting M to ponder:
M: When do you sleep, 007?
Bond: Never on the Crown's time, sir.
Seated in a leathery chair, Bond is told that fellow S. S. agent Strangways in Jamaica has disappeared, along with his new secretary. Strangways was making an inquiry of the Americans into massive interference with Cape Canaveral (Florida) rockets. M describes Agent 007's new assignment - he is to investigate whether the agents' disappearance is linked to the interference with the flight paths of Cape Canaveral's nuclear rocket launches, since the source of the trouble appears to be in the Jamaican area. Bond is to speak with Felix Leiter (Jack Lord), a long-time compatriot in the U.S. CIA who was working with Strangways in Jamaica.
Bond is reminded of his special status in the Secret Service, told to be careful, and instructed to carry a different gun than his beretta:
If you carry a double O number, it means you're licensed to kill, not get killed.
The Secret Service's weapons expert cautions Bond to carry a smaller weapon for his protection.

variable speed furnace
I just had a variable speed oil furance installed...the quietness was one of the selling points but when it is ramped up to the maximum speed it is anything but quiet. Does anybody know if the speed can be adjusted to make it quieter? I read somewhere in the literature it was factory set so don't know if this is possible or I just need to get used to it but I paid for quiet and it's not.
Call the installers back. It dosn't sound like they have the blower set up right. There could be many settings depending on what brand you bought.
The other problem could be that it is to big for your existing ductwork.
variable speed furnace
Thanks HVAC 122...I just called my furnace installer and they will be back to adjust my fan. Thanks so much for your advice.
Did they do a load clac. Or just install the same size furnace. So that your still now your duct work is too small for the air that the furnace needs to move.
VS blowers connected to under sized duct work. makes for a loud system.
VS furnace
I'm hoping it's just an adjustment...what alternative do I have if the ductwork is too small for the system short of putting in new ductwork?
Have them install the right size furnace.
Did they just install the same size as what was there?
They should have done a load calc.
While they can adjust the blower speed to make it quieter. That doesn't mean that the temp rise will be low enough to be safe for the furnace.
How hot is the air when it comes out of the registers now? And what is the temp of the air entering the return register?

text: Jan 22, 2011 - As a styling product on wet, just-washed hair, this is all right, but I have some issues with frizz and "puffiness." Interestingly, it is a PERFECT second-day hair product. I work it in to my curls and it gives them beautiful shine, bounce, and a touch of added definition. The nice lemon custard smell is a bonus.

bought my 2004 Impreza WRX last week. Thought i would see all the other members from Idaho.
Good lookin subie man, congrats!
I just bought my first subaru..2010 wrx. Used, but love it! pics will be up soon. Any meets going on soon?
I'm in Moscow, looking to get a WRX wagon once I sell/trade my Porsche 911!
What's up Maytime? Which 911 are driving in town? I drive the white 04 STI... when u get ur subie we should get some people together and hit the Friday night drags in Spokane!
Hey! I drive the 911SC (1982, seal gray). I know there's a yellow 912, a few Boxsters, a few Cayennes, a Cayman, and I think a black 996 around Moscow. I've seen your STi around, small world!
Right on.. Are u looking to get a new wrx wagon? I'm still debating on whether to get the '11 STI. I can't decide if I wanna sell my car or keep it for a track car... Maybe I'll see u around town sometime.
I'm actually looking to get an 04-07 WRX wagon and beef it up with upgraded components. I wouldn't mind an Outback XT or Forester XT, but I just like the looks of the 04/05 as well as the 06/07 WRX. Just need something that can fit all my stuff in it lol.
I drove an 06 wrx wagon in utah when i was looking to buy my wrx, It was a great rig. Easier/cheaper to find parts than my 2010 hatch to ha.
Any more STis in the Treasure Valley area??
There doesn't seem to be much activity here in the local forum lately. Thought I'd see if theres still anyone out there!!
I just picked up our new 10' STi on Tuesday down in LA and spent three days on the road driving it back up here. The long straight desert roads don't do this car any justice though.... Fun little trip despite Wednesday (the day I left Vegas) being full of bad luck.
Lightning Red
Silver BBS
Nuthin' but a short throw shifter....
I have a '10 wrx and would love to go to a meet sometime.
Next summer I plan on buying an STi though, salvaged so I can have a project.
other than pdxtuning are there any closer places (local) to get a protune?

Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel PRO Starter Kit – Medium Grade
Everything you need to make your paint as smooth as glass!
The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel PRO Starter Kit is the perfect starter kit for those just getting introduced to the revolutionary Nanoskin Autoscrub system. The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel revolutionized the car care industry with its advanced, rubberized polymer coating that removes above-surface bonded contaminants quicker and easier than a traditional clay bar. This all-inclusive starter kit includes everything you need to decontaminate paint and glass.
The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel PRO Starter Kit – Medium Grade includes:
Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel – Medium Grade
The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel replaces the traditional clay bar by providing a more efficient, cost effective way of removing above-surface bonded contaminants from your vehicle's finish. Manufactured with an advanced rubber polymer coating on one side, the Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel makes achieving smooth, contaminant-free paint easier than ever. Remove paint over spray, bugs, tar, rail dust and industrial fall out with virtually no effort.
The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel arguably makes the traditional clay bar obsolete. A traditional clay bar is only good for 5 to 10 cars.
The Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel, thanks to its unique construction and advanced rubber polymer face, can be used up to 80 times!
If you're a professional detailer or car care enthusiast, the Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel is one of the best investments you can make!
The medium grade Nanoskin Autoscrub Towel is ideal for vehicles that sit outside 24/7 or have been poorly maintained.
Nanoskin Glide Instant Detail Spray Lubricant Concentrate 16 oz.
Nanoskin Glide Instant Detail Spray Lubricant Concentrate is an important component of the Nanoskin Autoscrub System. It provides the perfect amount of lubrication so the Autoscrub System glides effortlessly across the surface, safely removing contaminants without scratching or marring the finish.
Glide is a dual purpose product because it can also be used as a high-gloss detail spray in between regular washes.
Use it regularly to keep your vehicle gleaming with that just-washed shine.
For use with the Autoscrub System, dilute 1 part concentrate to 7 parts water. If you plan on using Glide as a clay lubricant or high-gloss quick detail spray, dilute 1 part concentrate to 10 parts water.
Nanoskin Nano Shock Instant Lubricant Sealant 16 oz.
Nanoskin Nano Shock Instant Lubricant Sealant is a spray on sealant that can also be used as a quick detail spray, waterless wash and lubricant for the Nanoskin Autoscrub System!
Use Nano Shock regularly to maintain the shine and protection of your wax, sealant or coating.
It creates a high-gloss polymer barrier that dissipates static so your vehicle stays cleaner, longer. Regular application will extend your existing paint protection so you don't have to wax as often.
Nanoskin Rain Prep Glass Activator & Cleaner 2 oz.
Nanoskin Rain Prep Glass Activator & Cleaner is a concentrated cleaner and lubricant designed to prep exterior glass for Nanoskin Rain Glass Sealant. Designed to be used with the Nanoskin Autoscrub System, Rain Prep Glass Activator & Sealant lubricates the surface while the Autoscrub removes bonded contaminants. Nanoskin Rain Prep Glass Activator & Cleaner also makes an exceptional glass cleaner; road film, bugs, dirt and grime don't stand a chance!
Nanoskin Rain Glass Sealant 2 oz.
Nanoskin Rain Glass Sealant creates a crystal clear, hydrophobic coating on your vehicle's exterior glass surfaces. Treated glass surfaces exhibit excellent water beading and sheeting, making routine cleaning quick and easy. Formulated using an anti-static polymer, Nanoskin Rain Glass Sealant doesn't attract dust or dirt. Scratch resistance is also significantly improved thanks to the ultra-slick cross-linking polymers in Nanoskin Rain Glass Sealant.

The Referendum on Separation for Scotland: Making the Process Legal
HC 542, Second Report of Session 2012-13 - Report, Together with Formal Minutes
- Author:
- House of Commons - Scottish Affairs Committee
- Publisher:
- TSO (The Stationery Office)
Scotland can only separate from the UK if the Scottish people make that decision in a referendum; 'The Referendum on Separation for Scotland: Making the Process Legal (HC 542)' reports that any such referendum must have an unchallengeable legal and moral basis, to avoid delays and challenges to the legitimacy of the process and its result.
The Scottish Parliament can legislate only on devolved matters, and the Union between Scotland and England is a reserved matter. The Scottish Government has argued that Holyrood is legally competent to set up a referendum, but the Committee can find no evidence for this and the Scottish Government has provided no legal justification for this view.
Any attempt to conduct a referendum on a dubious legal basis would inevitably be challenged in the courts and could take years to be resolved. The Committee propose that the UK and Scottish Governments and Parliaments agree the specific detail of an order under section 30 of the Scotland Act 1998, to give Scottish Parliament the power to conduct the referendum.
The Committee further believes that any Section 30 order proposed by the Government should be subject to pre-legislative scrutiny by the Scottish Affairs Committee, and must be approved by all of Scotland's MPs. However, this should not be used to allow those who anticipate being defeated to stall or derail the process.

IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE FOR RAJASTHAN AT JAIPUR BENCH, JAIPUR ORDER S.B. Civil Writ Petition No. 9110/2007 Gajanand & Ors. V/s. Maharaj Singh & Anr. Date of Order : 17th April, 2012 HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE MAHESH BHAGWATI Mr. Tripurari Sharma, for the petitioner. Mr. Y.K. Sharma, for the respondent.
By way of the instant writ petition, the petitioners have beseeched to quash and set aside the order dated 29th September, 2007, whereby the learned Civil Judge (Jr.Division), Hindaun City, allowed the unregistered and unstamped sale-deed of the respondent-plaintiff to be marked exhibit.
2. Shorn of unnecessary details, the facts of the case are that the plaintiff-respondent filed a civil suit against the petitioners-defendants on 4th December, 2006 for permanent injunction with regard to a plot described in Para-1 of plaint, in the court of Civil Judge (Jr.Division), Hindaun City. It is alleged that the petitioners-defendants intended to dispossess the respondent-plaintiff from the said suit plot forcibly, hence, above suit was filed, wherein the petitioners-defendants appeared in the court after service of summons. The petitioners-defendants denied the averments made in the plaint. During the pendency of the suit, the respondent-plaintiff intended to mark exhibit on the sale-deed which was opposed by the petitioners-defendants vehemently on the ground that the sale-deed was not registered nor was it duly stamped. Despite there being opposition from the petitioners-defendants, the learned trial court dismissed the objections and allowed the respondent-plaintiff to mark exhibit thereon.
3. Having heard the learned counsel for the parties and carefully perused the relevant material on record, it is not in dispute that the sale-deed dated 14th October, 1977 was unregistered and not duly stamped. Now, a very short question, which springs up for consideration in the instant petition is as to whether unregistered and unstamped document i.e. sale-deed, can be allowed to be exhibited in evidence?
4. In the case of Avinash Kumar Chauhan Versus Vijay Krishna Mishra reported in AIR 2009 Supreme Court 1489, the Hon'ble Apex Court held as under:
The unregistered deed of sale was an instrument which required payment of the stamp duty applicable to a deed of conveyance. Adequate stamp duty admittedly was not paid. The court, therefore, was empowered to pass an order in terms of Section 35 of the Act. The plea that the document was admissible for collateral purpose, would not be tenable. Thus, the order directing impounding of said document was not liable to be interfered with.
The Hon'ble Apex court further held that Section 35 of the Act, however, rules out applicability of such provision as it is categorically provided therein that a document of this nature shall not be admitted for any purpose whatsoever. If all purposes for which the document is sought to be brought in evidence are excluded, we fail to see any reason as to how the document would be admissible for collateral purposes.
Thus, it is now well settled that there is no prohibition under Section 49 of the Registration Act, to receive an unregistered document in evidence for collateral purpose. But the document so tendered should be duly stamped or should comply with the requirements of Section 35 of the Stamp Act, if not stamped, as a document cannot be received in evidence even for collateral purpose unless it is duly stamped or duty and penalty are paid under Section 35 of the Stamp Act.
5. Reliance is also placed on Firm Chuni Lal Tukki Mal v. Firm Mukat Lal Ram Chanda and others [AIR 1965 All. 164] and Chandra Sekhar Misra vs. Gobinda Chandra Das, [AIR 1966 Ori. 18].
6. Adverting to the facts of the instant case, it is found that the document in question was unregistered and unstamped. It is categorically provided under Section 39 of the Stamp Act that whatever may be the purpose, the document cannot be admitted in evidence unless it is duly stamped and if the document is insufficiently stamped, the parties are required to pay the defficient stamp duty and unless the stamp duty is not properly paid, the document cannot be permitted to be exhibited nor can the same be admitted to evidence. The learned trial court is not found to have discussed this aspect in correct and right perspective. It has been observed by the learned trial court that the document can be admitted to evidence for collateral purpose even if it is not registered and properly stamp.
7. Section 35 of the Stamp Act contemplates that a document shall not be admitted to evidence for any purpose whatsoever unless it is duly stamped. The finding of the learned trial court in this regard is found to be erroneous and contrary to law, hence, the impugned order being contrary to law deserves to be set aside.
8. For the reasons stated above, the writ petition is allowed and the impugned order dated 29th September, 2007 stands set aside. The learned trial court is directed to get the document duly impounded under the provisions of law and thereafter only, should permit the respondent-plaintiff to mark exhibit thereon. Unless the document is duly stamped, the same cannot be admitted to evidence.
All Corrections made in the judgment/order have been incorporated in the judgment/order being emailed.

AR Crop Value Losses to Floods Top $35M, Soybeans Suffer Most
Little Rock, Arkansas -
LITTLE ROCK, AR (News release) - Flooding has caused $35.6 million in lost crop value, but the full extent of the damage won't be known until after harvest, according to economists with the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture.
The study was conducted by Brad Watkins, and Archie Flanders, respectively professor and assistant professor of economics for the Division of Agriculture. It is based on information collected by county extension agents of the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture.
The two examined damage done by flooding that began in June in Craighead, Crittenden, Cross, Jackson, Lee, Monroe, Poinsett, Prairie, St. Francis, and Woodruff counties. In that 10-county area, floods affected 210,400 farm acres.
While the flooding this year was not as widespread as in 2011, "the timing of the floods this year occurred late enough that replant options were limited and highly risky," said Mark Cochran, vice president-agriculture for the University of Arkansas and head of the U of A System Division of Agriculture.
By comparison, the 2011 flooding on the Mississippi and its tributaries cost Arkansas crop farmers $335 million in damage.
"This year's damage can be categorized into four general classes: total loss with no replant; costs of replanting the same or alternate less profitable crop; yield losses and increased production costs due slowed crop development and late planting date; and prevented plantings," Cochran said, adding that "while preliminary estimates are available from some damage, a more complete estimate will be possible only after harvest yields are available."
Four types of loss. The study outlined four classes where value was lost:
- Total loss: $17.6 million. Some acreage was a total loss with crops completely destroyed and replanting not possible.
- Replanting costs: $18 million. Other acreage was damaged and replanted with the lost crop or another crop. Here, the value loss entails the cost of replanting and potential decreased yield due to a shortened growing season for the late-planted crop.
- Slowed development. In some acreage, floods slowed crop development. Losses due to diminished crop development won't be known until harvest.
- Prevented planting. In some cases, flooding prompted growers to cancel planting plans for flooded acres. Data for prevented planted acreage will be available later this year.
Value loss by crop.
Flanders and Watkins found that soybeans suffered the most, with losses pegged at $28.4 million. In other crops, value losses were:
- Rice - $5.6 million
- Corn and sorghum - $1.5 million
- Winter wheat - $0.1 million.
Value loss by county
- Monroe, Poinsett, and Woodruff counties had the greatest value losses with each having more than $4.5 million in losses. They were followed by:
- Crittenden, Cross, Prairie, and St. Francis counties each with losses between $1.5 million and $4.5 million.
- Craighead, Jackson, and Lee counties each had losses of less than $1.5 million.
Effects into 2015
The effects of crop value losses will ripple into next year's growing season, the economists said.
"Value losses in areas susceptible to flooding will negatively impact total farm profitability as commodity prices are decreased in 2014, and producers were already working with diminished profit margin potential," said Flanders. "Value losses will have a negative impact on the producers' ability to repay loans and meet long-term obligations."
"With prices projected to remain low, losses due to flooding this year could impact the ability of producers to obtain operating loans for the 2015 production year," he said.
Watkins said that flood damage can also have ramifications on the likelihood of crop insurance indemnities being paid.
"Unlike drought, which can more uniformly affect an entire insurance unit -- the acreage covered by crop insurance for a specific crop -- flood damage is often more area-specific," he said. "It is possible for a portion of the covered crop acreage to be lost to flood damage without any indemnity payments being triggered.
"For example, a producer could lose a field of a particular covered crop to flood, but the actual crop yield for the entire insurance unit inclusive of the flood-damaged field could still be high enough not to trigger a crop insurance indemnity," Watkins said.
