The Ready for the World Café, a popular weekly full-service international luncheon series at UT, will begin its fall season Tuesday, September 25, with cuisine from Southern Italy. The community is invited to take a gastronomical journey over the next ten weeks through various regions and cultures of the world.
Ready for the World News
Entering Honors Students Visit Costa Rica
For many students, studying abroad is something to dream about after their freshmen year. But one group of UT students studied abroad even before taking their first class on campus. Sixteen new first-year Chancellor's Honors students studied ecotourism and sustainability in Costa Rica during summer 2012.
Fall 2012 Passports are Here
The Fall 2012 Ready for the World Passports have arrived and are ready for distribution. The Passport is a free calendar and guide to many of the international and intercultural events taking place on campus and in the community. If you would like Passports to distribute to your classes, contact Amy Blakely at email@example.com or 974-5034.
UT Hosts International Students for Unique Engineering Program
More than ninety students from developing countries will converge on the UT campus next month for a College of Engineering program to learn cutting-edge industrial engineering practices and gain cultural experiences. The program, called the Lean Enterprise Summer Program, is intended to allow students from different cultures to work together to accrue the technical knowledge of the practice of creating more value for consumers while using fewer resources and eliminating waste.
Confucius Institute to Open; Will Provide Educational, Cultural Activities
A Confucius Institute will soon open on campus, expanding opportunities for UT students and others to learn Chinese, experience Chinese culture, and travel abroad. Confucius Institutes are non-profit public institutions run in cooperation with Chinese partner universities and typically offer for-credit and non-credit Chinese language courses, sponsor cultural activities, and help local schools provide more education about China.
Civil Rights Class is Hitting the Road This Mini-Term
The civil rights movement of the 1960s was started and perpetuated by college students who risked their safety and even their lives for the cause. History professor Cynthia Fleming is taking her UT students back to the scene of these events to revisit history through firsthand accounts.
Social Work Students Attend United Nations Conferences
Twenty College of Social Work students in late March attended United Nations conferences to develop skills and gain knowledge about best practices to address important global issues. The students participated in the Global Social Work Student Conference and the twenty-ninth Annual Social Work Day at the United Nations in New York City.

Can I install a self-ballasted CFL bulb into a ballasted fixture?
6 Attachment(s)
I have a 20-40 year old Mercury Vapor light fixture in my yard above the stairs that lead up to my house. It was non-functioning when I moved in. If I had to guess, based on it's appearance I would say that it is a 175Watt fixture.
I can hear that the dusk to dawn feature is still working. (It makes a vibrating sound for about 2 minutes every dusk/dawn, followed by a "CLICK" sound)
I am assuming that the bulb is burned out, but I suppose the ballast could be fried also.
I am very frugal with energy. My monthly electric bill runs about $60 (or less) a month. I am not willing to waste 175W, 100W, or even 65W for a light that stays on all night, but at the same time, I need a LITTLE light out there to illuminate the stairs leading up to my house. I have been using a series of battery operated LED motion detector lights, dispersed at intervals along the stairways/path leading up to my hillside house, but these run out of batteries every few months, and don't really put out a lot of light.
I have calculated that it would actually be CHEAPER to operate a GE 14Watt CFL Outdoor Bug Bulb (with 60W incandescent light equivalent) from dusk to dawn than it would be to keep changing the batteries in the LED motion lights. It would also be more convenient and safer to have a light on all night.
Unfortunately the area light fixture in my yard is pretty high up, and difficult to reach without death-defying effort using my ladder that is not tall enough. I can however buy a bulb changing tool and an extension pole to replace the bulb without killing myself, but opening the top of the unit to rewire the socket directly to the dusk/dawn sensor, bypassing the ballast would be very difficult to accomplish.
SO, here are my questions:
#1: Can I install a self-ballasted 14 watt bulb into a 175 watt, ballasted Mogul socket, and expect it to work? (using a mogul to medium socket adapter) The ballast merely LIMITS the wattage from EXCEEDING 175 watts, correct?
#2: Worst case scenario is that the ballast is fried. If this is the case, what is the likelihood that it is still passing power to the socket?
The old mercury vapor lamp ballast may or may not pass at 14 watts a voltage within tolerances taht the CFL will operate on.
At full brightness, the mercury lamp is actually running at a lower voltage when drawing its 175 watts.
No they are not compatable! You could rewire the fixture to work, however that would violate the UL listing.
Without rewiring the wrong voltage would be supplied to the CFL.
Why would the voltage change? Is that how the ballast limits the wattage? By reducing the voltage when the wattage tries to exceed 175watts?
Would that still apply if the wattage does not exceed 175?
A ballast is basically a transformer which either steps up or down voltage and current. You would be putting 2 in series if you tried doing what you suggest so there for your voltage and current would be wrong.
A ballast is basically a self-adjusting transformer, that variably steps down the voltage to produce a specific wattage, correct?
In the case of a 175Watt bulb, the job of the ballast would be to make sure that the bulb ONLY receives 175Watts in order for it to function properly, agreed?
An unballasted 175Watt bulb will actually try to pull as much amperage as it can, until it burns out, thus requiring the NEED for the ballast.
If we use the formula: Watts = Amps * Volts, we get 175 = Amps * Volts, we could change the volts to respond to the amps which would be variable, in order to obtain our goal of 175 watts.
Therefore, if the bulb tried to pull 3 amps, the ballast would step down the Volts to 58.3, in order to achieve 175 watts, correct?
SO, this also means that if the bulb only tries to pull 1.46 amps, exactly 120 volts would be required in order to achieve 175 Watts, correct?
Thus, if the amps fell BELOW this threshold of 1.46 the ballast would do NOTHING, correct? The ballast wouldn't be configured to automatically reverse itself in order to STEP UP the Voltage above 120 Volts, correct?
If all this is correct, it should therefore stand to reason that a 14 watt SELF-BALLASTING bulb would only pull .14 amps (at 120 Volts), well below the threshold required to engage the ballast.
Does this make sense or am I crazy?
Would that CF bulb even fit in there? Don't M-V bulbs have a fatter base? Maybe I'm thinking of something else, but I thought they made the screw-in part a different size so you don't go putting the wrong bulbs in the wrong fixtures.
There are CFL bulbs that have a very large base
I think the same as the larger mogul bases
I'd simply bypass or remove the ballast
As I indicated, I would be using a socket adapter to make a standard bulb fit in a mogul socket. They are available at any hardware store (or on Amazon) for a couple of dollars.
@Scuba_DaveThe CFL bulbs that are designed to replace standard MV bulbs, and fit in mogul sockets are usually unballasted, designed to work with the existing ballast.
Due to the location of the lamp fixture, removing the ballast is not an option unless I also want to purchase a $300-$400 ladder. (See images below)
Unfortunately I am confined to a very tight budget to try to get this light working.
check out this site and maybe it will help you understand
With any type of bulb that uses a gas vapor it takes a high starting voltage to ignite the gas. Also with any transformer there is no physical connection between the primary wires and the secondary wires, therefore you would not have the correct line voltage to fire your CFL bulb.
I see what you mean about access. Looks like you need a sky hook :laughing:.
Be careful whatever you decide to do.
Yeah, that's a tough spot
I think I'd be inclined to install a new fixture lower, just above that little junction cover
Would make it much easier to change bulks
While CFL's are supposed to last a long time...I find when installed outside they only last 2-3 years depending upon use & weather exposure
I was thinking exactly the same thing. Not only would a lower location make it make it easier to change bulbs (or remove ballasts), if I am going to replace a 175W bulb with a 14W bulb, it is not going to throw light nearly as far, and thus SHOULD be closer to the ground. Right at the junction box seems like the perfect height to get the stairs and a decent section of the hill below. (I still plan to use motion sensor lights at the bottom of the hill)
So, I guess my focus needs to shift to how to remove the existing fixture, instead of trying to remove the ballast from it. This actually looks like it will be an easier task than the latter, although STILL not possible with my existing ladder.
Hmm, maybe I can rent a ladder...
Once I get the fixture down, I can crack it open and see how easy it would be to bypass the ballast, then remount it right above the junction where it protrudes from the wall, eliminating the extension pole altogether.
And if that doesn't work, I suppose it wouldn't be that expensive to just replace the whole thing. (once I get past the ladder issue) Frankly, the existing fixture is kind of ugly anyway. Although, unfortunately all of the less expensive area lights I have seen are just as ugly as this one! It kind of defeats the purpose of my plan to save $60 a year in electricity if I have to pay $200 for the light fixture and its installation!

Reversed Perceptions
Daily OM: We all have issues, as well as undesirable qualities or traits that we don't like about ourselves. Most of us realize that we are not perfect and that it is natural to have unpleasant thoughts, motivations, desires, or feelings. However, when a person does not acknowledge these, they may ascribe those characteristics to someone else, deeming other people instead as angry, jealous, or insecure. In psychological terms, such blaming and fault finding is called projection. When we are the target of projections, it can be confusing and frustrating, not to mention maddening, particularly when we know that we are not the cause of another person's distress. Even people who are well aware of their issues may find that sensitive subjects can bring up unexpected projections. They may feel insecure about a lack of funds and thus view a friend as extravagant. Or, if they really want to get in shape, they may preach the benefits of exercise to anyone and everyone....read more>>>...

[USA-HONDURAS] Honduras arrived in San Jose to begin training for Tuesday's World Cup qualifier against the USA in Sandy, Utah. San Jose is the MLS home to Catrachos Victor Bernardez, Marvin Chavez and Walter Martinez, though only Chavez will be headed on to Utah. Bernandez is suspended, leaving the Bicolor desperately thin in the middle of the backline, where it is already missing injured giant Maynor Figueroa.
Center back Osman Chavez is also injured, leaving only David Velasquez, who
started in the 2-0 win over Jamaica on Tuesday night, and Juan Pablo Montes available.
There was talk in the Honduran press of bringing in Johnny Leveron, who is scheduled to start for the Vancouver Whitecaps Saturday against the New England Revolution.
Two other starters -- the Houston
Dynamo's Oscar Boniek Garcia, who scored against Jamaica, and Celtic defender Emilio Izaguirre -- are also injured
but hope to play on Tuesday.
The Catrachos will train through Sunday in San Jose and leave for Salt Lake City on Monday morning.

Right, that's out the way. On Saturday the Telegraph published snippets of an interview with Tristram under the headline 'Labour: White boys' underachievement linked to mass migration'. Now, of course, there is an issue with white boys' underachievement at school - though, forgive my contrarian nature, few outside the women's movement were that bothered about white girls' underperformance until the terms of the problem were reversed. But anyway. It's a complex problem but not an insurmountable one by any means. And, unfortunately, immigration is a hot topic too. Even if we don't wake up to our Romanian and Bulgarian overlords tomorrow, the UK can look forward to being swamped by 27 million new Britons by the end of the month. And if the pint-chewing and cigarette-drinking Nigel Farage gets his way, you can add tens of thousands of Syrian refugees to that total. Immigration does matter to many millions of voters - you don't need the ringside seat I once had at Tristram's postbag to realise that.
Are the two linked? Because my next-door-but-one neighbours are Polish, does that mean the white working class boy around the corner is going to do worse at school? It's difficult to see how a link could be suggested. But this is what the Telegraph says Tristram believes. Asked about it, he replied "Exactly. And that comes back to the supply side. We have to get in there." Seems unequivocal.
It all depends on how you define 'linked'. Evidently, if white working class boys aren't doing well at school they will find themselves disadvantaged when they enter the labour market. And this is especially the case when they're competing for unskilled work with recent arrivals from overseas. There is a link between the two. A relationship. And, it's perfectly obvious from the short piece and the longer extract from the forthcoming Fabian Review that this is the sense in which the matter is being discussed. Hence why Tristram stressed the necessity of upskilling working class boys and acknowledged that open borders to EU migrants were a mistake. Whether you agree with the comments or not, the end point is aimed at the entry points and extent of the labour market in low paid, unskilled work.
Sadly, thanks to the mischievous headline the title strongly implies immigration causes underachievement. And going by the outraged tweets that fell into my feed on Saturday and Sunday, this was how many, many lefties interpreted it too. This is why I'm going to have to patronise folks who were so moved. The Telegraph is a Tory paper. As such, it doesn't have the best interests of the labour movement at heart. It will say and do what it thinks it can get away with to traduce and rubbish progressive views. That is why they publish Dan Hodges and Lisa Ansell, both of whom spend their time knocking Labour and the trade unions from Blair Ultra and Ultra-Left perspectives respectively. The paper has also embarked on a conscious effort to distort whatever front-bench Labour people say to undermine members' and activists' morale (some might say the leadership are quite capable of that themselves).
Given Labour's unenviable past of indulging racist dog-whistling, you can understand why some might accept the Telegraph's spin as plausible. Nevertheless it's still disappointing that people who know a thing or two about media literacy and the partisan press uncritically swallowed the report.

When I reach for the remote, I almost always seek out 1) Dr. Phil or 2) any sort of dating show. That's why this news just made my day!
Fresh off her Dancing with the Stars run, Kelly Osbourne is reportedly joining Dr. Phil on his self-help talk show, starting today. "I really hope I can use my life experiences to do some good," Kelly said.
Meanwhile, Jerry Springer is set to host a daily dating show, Baggage, beginning April 19.
"I just keep finding jobs," Springer joked about his new Game Show Network show where contestants will reveal their worst qualities to potential dates. "I'm really lucky and I know that. Being a host is what I'm comfortable doing. I've been doing it forever, joking around with guests, having fun."
What do you think? Would you want Jerry to play matchmaker? Would you take advice from Kelly? Are you planning to set your DVR?

Spaghettini with Spinach and Garlic-Parmesan Cream
Spaghettini cooks extra quickly and is an elegant pasta with this luscious garlicky sauce.
Plus: Pasta Recipes and Tips
- Total Time:
- Servings: 4
- 3/4 pound spaghettini
- One 10-ounce bag washed spinach
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 10 garlic cloves, halved lengthwise
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, plus more for serving
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
How to make this recipe
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the spaghettini and cook until al dente. About 30 seconds before the spaghettini is done, add the spinach to the pot. Drain the spaghettini and spinach, reserving 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking water. Return the pasta and spinach to the pot.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil. Add the garlic and cook over moderate heat until golden, about 8 minutes. Add the cream and thyme and simmer over low heat until the garlic is tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Whisk in the 1/3 cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano and season with salt and pepper.
Add the garlic cream to the pasta along with the reserved pasta cooking water and toss well. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer the pasta to bowls and serve, passing extra grated cheese at the table.

Blind Contestant Wows Keith Urban on Australian VOICE [Video]
Watch this! NOW! A brand new season of The Voice is underway in Australia and a young lady named Rachael Leahcar just gave an interesting double meaning to the show's "blind auditions." See, Rachael is legally blind and had to be guided to her mark center stage. But once she got there, the only thing she needed was a microphone in her hand. As Rachael layered her amazing voice around Edith Piaf's "La Vie En Rose," the crowd wept. The judges were swept up in the moment too. And, though he was the last judge to hit his button and turn his chair around, Keith Urban was won over by the occasion as well ! WATCH! This is beautiful!

Look | The Yankees Home Opener in Photos
Fans flocked to the Yankees season home opener in the Bronx Thursday.
Erica Caizaguano, a Bronx native, has been selling Yankees memorabilia outside of the stadium for three years.
"We prepare for the opening day, we buy the pins, sweatshirts and the customers just come in and buy them. Today especially -- buying sweatshirts -- it's a cold day today," he said.
Michael Blaze Boccumini commuted from New Jersey and said he's taking baseball even more seriously this year: "There might be a lockout in the NFL, so this might be the only sport we have this year, so I'm going to go with my New York team and if I'm not getting Giants, I'm getting Yankees," he said.

Sunspot Actor Adan Canto Burned Through Comics In Prep For Role
Bryan Singer's X-Men: Days of Future Past has so many mutants, it might be hard to keep up on who's who. In fact, some of the actors weren't familiar with their characters going into the film. Adan Canto, who plays Sunspot, was one such performer, but that didn't stop him from doing some research. Fandango was on hand when Canto talked a bit about how he used the source material to research his character.
Canto admitted that he wasn't familiar with comics before getting the role, but did jump into the world of New Mutants in preparation for the part. "It wasn't entirely a new world because I had followed the previous movies, but I did jump into the comic books world a bit to understand: Who is this guy? What's his life like?" Canto said. "I just find I work better that way when I understand what's in his mind, where he's coming from. I pretty much took most of the things I read and I brought them to the table. He's a fiery guy. There's a lot of passion with Sunspot – a lot of experiences that brought him to want to explode all the time, but he's a positive guy. There was just a lot of material – very helpful!"
Canto also praised director Bryan Singer's ability to see the whole film in his head during production. "It's inspiring to see somebody that knows exactly what he wants, and he sees it in his mind," he said. "When you're working with him, you can see the whole game plan in his head, and just to make things work the way he makes them work is great. And to be a part of that as an actor and simply as a person in this industry, it was just a great learning experience to take things to the next level."
X-Men: Days of Future Past opens on May 23.

Regional Research Frameworks
These have been developed in each region as part of the Regional Research Frameworks initiative promoted by English Heritage in collaboration with local authorities, in order to provide an effective yet flexible structure for decision making regarding archaeological research. These have adopted the three-stage structure envisaged by English Heritage in Frameworks for our Past (Olivier 1996) has been adopted, which sees the research framework as comprising:
- Resource Assessment: an overview of the current state of knowledge and understanding in the region.
- Research Agenda: recognition of the potential of the resource, gaps in our knowledge and an unprioritised list of research topics.
- Research Strategy: a prioritised list of research objectives (seen as flexible over time), furthered by implementing specific Research Projects.
In the light of the further knowledge gained from research and other projects, the agenda and strategy will be subject to continuing review.

Khutsidze wins controversially
By Alexey Sukachev
WBA #4 middleweight Avtandil Khurtsidze (20-1-2, 13 KOs) was lucky to be awarded with a dubious eight-round TKO over Uzbek veteran Kuvanych Toygonbayev (30-6, 19 KOs) moments ago at Budivelnik sports arena in Cherkasy, Ukraine. Headlining a nice-packed little tournament, arranged there by K2 East Promotions, Kiev-based Georgian Khurtsidze, who spent the first part of his pro career overseas before being stopped by Tony Marshall in May 2005, retained both his WBA I/C (for the fourth time) and EBA (for the first time) titles simultaneously.
Short (5'4") but powerful Tysonesque banger Khurtsidze applied his trademark pressure since the outset. He did enough damage to a bit rusty Uzbek fighter to take the first round. The second stanza, however, saw much more experienced Toygonbayev, who is best known for a series of victories over such notables as Oba Carr, Alfonso Mosquera, Andrey Tsurkan and Andrey Pestriaev several years ago, taking the control of the bout. Working from the outside, the guest stylist forced the local hero to miss much with his pretty ineffective aggression, while taking the remainder of his shots with his tight block. Round three was also in Kuvanych's favour, who found a room for a devastating uppercut at the end of the three-minute period. Sensing the fight is turning in a wrong direction, Khurtsidze increased the tempo and delivered more heat to the challenger to take the next couple of rounds. The sixth and the seventh rounds were fought on even terms with Toygonbayev growing more and more fatigued but being a more precise fighter of two nevertheless.
In the grueling eighth round, both fighters went toe-to-toe and collided with their heads, which forced a horrible cut over Kuvanych's left eyebrow. Referee Guiseppe Quartarone of Italy explicitly stated that the cut had been forced by an accidental headbutt. In a several moments, the fight was stopped by the doctor to a much displeasure and disappointment of still retaliating Uzbek boxer. Somewhat surprisingly, despite "an accidental headbutt" the final decision was the technical knockout in favour of Avtandil Khurtsidze, which clearly was a strange result. Fightnews had it 76-76 at the time of stoppage.
In the co-feature, ex-WBA welterweight titlist Yuri Nuzhnenko (30-1-1, 14 KOs), now ranked #7 by the WBA, continued his comeback with a ten-round workmanlike decision over Russian clowning journeyman Vyacheslav Yakovenko (7-8-1, 3 KOs) of Barnaul. Despite a lopsided scoresheet (100-90 – twice, and 99-91) in his favour, Nuzhnenko was forced to work very hard to overcome the resistance of tough and never-been-stopped Russian fighter. T
The former champ fought almost the whole fight through a bad cut over his forehead, which had never stopped bleeding profisely. Nuzhnenko was also expierincing some stamina problems but at the end of the day he just proved that his mastership is much better than Yakovenko's. Fightnews saw it 98-92 for Yuri Nuzhnenko, who is scheduled to fight Italian veteran Gianluca Branco for a vacant EBU welterweight title in his next outing.

Brewery built more than a century ago in Indiana
In 1904, the Shryock Hill Brewing Co. began building this brewery at the site of the old waterworks on Oak Street in Indiana.
A license was obtained in 1905 and the name of the brewery became Indian Brewing Co. This lager beer was produced here in 1907 and advertised as a "tonic," which "tones up the nervous system, restores wasted tissues, nourishes and invigorates both body and brain."
There were 35 employees with a payroll of $45,000 in 1907. In 1941, the Greiner Baking Co. moved into this building and continued their baking business until the plant closed in November of 1960.
County historian John Busovicki, of Clymer, submitted this photo. (Submitted photo)

South Putnam Community Education Foundation
In 1998 the School board began a program of providing a $400-$450 scholarship to seniors receiving an Honors Diploma. This money came directly from the funds the school received for each student graduating with the Honors Diploma. The number of Honors Diploma graduates nearly doubled during this time. During the 2005 State Legislative session Senator Morris Mills presented legislation which was passed that would no longer allow us to provide these scholarships. Therefore as I looked for a way to replace this I stumbled upon an article in the Indianapolis Star discussing Education Foundations. After weeks of research I asked Penny Long and Annette Coon to help me start this foundation. We worked with the Indiana Association of Public Education Foundations and purchased a three ring binder on how to start a foundation. We met with Elaine Peck of the Putnam County Foundation to see if we could work through them. With this discussion we learned that we would be required to invest $12,000 into the county foundation before we could begin providing any kind of grant or scholarship as we would only get to use the interest from year to year that our investment generated. We would lose access to any and all investments in the county foundation. We decided that we wanted to be able to utilize all the money received for the benefit of South Putnam students and proceeded to seek a grant to pay for the costs of the application to receive a 501c3 classification. After receiving our first grant we applied and received our 501c3 designation. Since then we have received a total of two grants from INAPEF. As of tonight we have provided, 5 teacher grants, four scholarships, and will present some other funds as well tonight to support education. We also assist the Quarterback Club in handling their money which is used for the Wildman Leadership Scholarship.
With your support we will continue to work for the students of South Putnam Schools to seek out dollars in order to improve the education of our students.

fg12351 that sounds like my story- my first handgun was the G23 and I just bought my 3rd gun the Sig P239 in 40 S&W for the same reasons - it's slimmer than my P229 or G23, it only has a 3.5" barrel and it is light enough to haul around all day. Round capacity is as stated 7 rounds for the 40 and 8 for the 9mm.
Is that a detrement for the weapon - NO because that little gun feels so good and shoots so accurate you won''t need any more rounds (although I normally carry an extra mag in my pocket).
You could load the mag - put one in the pipe and drop the mag and add an extra round if you wanted to but I don't like doing that myself.
That P239 is one sweet little pistol. It took me a few times at the range to get used to the DA/SA trigger but now it's no problemo. I had considered getting the Kahr PM9 but because of availibility of the Kahr went with the P239 with no regrets.

help choosing paint brands
hi, i'm wanting to paint my room brown, and i don't want to buy just any kind of paint. i don't want it to look like some of those high gloss, shiny paints, i just want a sort of matte look i think. any advice on what brands and where i can get it?
Consumer Reports rates Behr Premium Plus Enamel highest in many categories. I believe it's also one of the better-priced brands, too, so it gets their "recommend" star.
If you want to get into the various performance features of paint, however, CR and many pro painters will qualify each brand according to what you want to do with it. For example, if I recall, the "fading" category is where Behr is not top rated, but just very good. In the important category of "coverage" there's none better. Home Depot sells Behr.
As for gloss and shine, every brand offers about five "sheens." You just choose one for your purpose. These are like Flat, Satin, Eggshell, Semi-gloss, Gloss, perhaps named differently.
You might want to check with some of your local paint suppliers. I would not recommend Behr, but Im a painter and thats just MY opinion.
Whatever you choose, make sure that you get a good high-end paint. Never pick whats cheapest or you will pay for it later.
Most painters I know like Benjamin Moore Paints...Its not cheap but when you start working with it and you see the finish you realize that it is worth the money
It sounds like what you are looking for in terms of sheen is flat or maybe satin if you want a slight slight sheen.
My bedrooms I always paint in a flat.
By the way good to have ya at the forum...
I agree with the opinion of Benjamin Moore paints.
We had our home painted 3 years ago, with BM paint and I really love it.
It is washable, (and that is really important)
May cost a bit more, but really worth it.
Stay away from Behr.... California...Ben Moore...Sherwin Williams
and the word Matte is the same for flat.
I'm no painting pro, so I can only trust non-profit third party testing labs like CR when it comes to evaluating so many different brands in so many different test categories.
What is it exactly about Behr that's so horrible? Is it just the low price or the fact that big box HD sells it? :detective:
I've used Benjamin Moore and Restoration Hardware brand. I love the Benjamin Moore - it goes on exceptionally well.
However, Behr did win (in 2004 I think) for one of the best paints (price vs. quality) with Benjamin Moore coming in 2nd....
Ok...I AM A PAINTER....I HAVE USED ALL THE PAINTS MENTIONED BY EVERY ANSWER.
Now....Sherwin-Williams is best. :thumbsup: Followed by Ben. Moore. Then maybe Pittsburgh.............
BEHR IS CRAP hence the place you purchase it is NOT a paint store and what they call there "premium paint" goes for $24....:laughing:
CONSUMER REPORTS ARE FOR BORED HOMEOWNERS WHO WANT TO CHALLENGE CONTRACTORS~SO I DESPISE ANYONE WHO FOLLOWS THEM~AFTER ALL THEY ARE NOT EVER COMPARING SIMILAR QUALITY PRODUCTS:no:
CONGRATULATIONS....I have provided you with some EYE opening facts from......YEP....YOU GUESSED IT...........................A PAINTER!:eek:
no... I meant... stay away from behr..... use..ben moore ...california...sherwin williams.....sorry 4 the wording
What do you think of Pratt & Lambert paints?
There is a thread going on right now about Sherman Williams Duration line of paints...people really seem to like it...Think Ill try some for the trim in my living room.
Out of the paints I've used:
I'd recommend Ben Moore, Sherwin Williams, and Pittsburgh's premium lines
You can usually get them at a Paint Shop
I can not recommend the Behr, AmTrad, Kilz Kolors, Glidden, or any of the other big box, HD, W*M, Lowes, Sears, etc. paints
They are pretty bad
Behr paints and stains being the absolute worse
I've used a little P&L and had no problems
I'd use it again
wow we have really jacked this womens thread...
Slickshift and other pros, what about a recomendation for water or acrylic based primer for bedrooms, living rooms etc...no moisture exposure interior projects...lets just say over a previous coat of latex paint on drywall...I always use Kilz and whatever else jumps off the shelf and my neighbor (a painter) always groans at whatver I get but never has any good input otherwise...

2010 Buick LaCrosse Problems
RepairPal has identified the most common problems with the 2010 Buick LaCrosse based on complaints from actual vehicle owners. We'll tell you what the problem is and what it'll take to fix it.
You may be able to prevent transmission problems by servicing the transmission and inspecting the fluid every 30,000 miles. If the fluid is dark or burned then the transmission system should be completely flushed.
The high pressure power steering hose will commonly leak fluid; it should be replaced.
A Loose or worn gas cap may cause Check Engine Light to illuminate.
The steering may develop a clunk type noise from the upper intermediate steering shaft. Our technicians tell us that you should check with your local GM dealer to find out what the latest repair is for this condition.
Door lock mechanisms not operating properly. Doors may not lock/unlock.
Replacement of faulty door lock actuator required for proper operation.
Vehicles with certain V6 engines may illuminate the Check Engine Light one or more of the following codes: P0011, P0014, P0021, P0024, P0341, P0346, P0336, or P0391. Our technicians tell us that some vehicles may require a powertrain control module (PCM) software update to correct this issue. Other vehicles may have excess camshaft end play on one or both cylinder heads which will need to be corrected using special procedures outlined by GM.
Contaminated brake fluid can cause problems in the brake system and it should be flushed every 60,000 miles.

Bastille play intimate London gig for war charity
By Anastasia Gorelova
LONDON (Reuters) - Just over a hundred lucky fans gathered in a London flat on Monday night to sing along with British electro-pop quintet Bastille at a special gig for the War Child charity.
The intimate show was part of the Sofar Sounds events - small, exclusive gigs that are held in carefully selected spaces in more than 50 cities worldwide.
The band, winners of the BRIT awards 2014 breakthrough act, played such hits as "Things We Lost In The Fire", "Laura Palmer" and "Pompeii".
"We haven't done anything like this for a long time. It's been very special for us and it's a pleasure to do something different," singer-songwriter Dan Smith said after the show.
"It is nice that we all live in London, we can walk into a tube and come to a gig."
Bastille and Sofar joined forces to raise funds for War Child, which aids children affected by conflicts and war across the world. Fans made donations to enter a ticket lottery.
"The big part of that was our contribution to War Child, of course, because, you know, our job is completely ridiculous and is a bit of a joke, so anything that we can do to get involved with something serious like that is nice," Smith said.
Bastille played one of their first shows with Sofar in 2011, when the band was starting out. This time they were supported by emerging band To Kill a King, which played an acoustic set. Continued...

What other brands use this same setup of drive system?
The previous few washing machines I had taken apart did not have a system like this.
One had a motor where you could see the bottom of it up front in the middle. The shaft pointed toward the back of the machine. It was directly bolted to the transmission that sat under the drum.
The other had the motor offset with the shaft pointing up into the transmission. The transmission had two solenoids on a hinged piece. When it'd agitate, the solenoids would swing back and forth. When it went into spin, the second solenoid would lock the hinged piece still.
I forget the brands of machines they were...
I like this Maytag setup. It's easy to diagnose.


text: I have a Premiere. Since Friday, I haven't been able to connect to Netflix. The red Netflix page shows briefly, and then an error message appears saying that it's unable to connect to Netflix, to try again, or to go to Netflix's website for help. It had worked for years, and nothing about my internet service or home network has changed. I can watch YouTube and Hulu videos on TiVo, but not Netlix. Also, the Netflix service is working at home on other devices. Just not on TiVo. I spoke three times with Netflix yesterday, troubleshooting. I did the same with TiVo today, calling three times and going through every conceivable troubleshooting option that they could think of. Hot reboots, cold reboots, changing settings, checking my network, trying to de-authorize the TiVo, connecting the TiVo directly to my modem (thus, bypassing any router), and more. One rep. actually suggested that I try using the TiVo from a different location, meaning I either have to move or ask a friend if I can install and watch my Netflix account via my TiVo from their home. I didn't try that. As of today, the status is that someone from TiVo will be calling me within the next 72 hours. So apparently I must stay home from work for the next three days and wait for them to call. Any user experience on this issue would be appreciated. Everything that both TiVo and Netflix suggested has not worked. Any user experience on this issue would be appreciated.

ADA Mini M-Shut down and for sale
This will be a picture journal and learning process with my ADA Mini M. Feel free to give advice, even if it is stubbornly not taken! I will appreciate it. This is my first time with a Dry Start and a first time with CO2. I have been doing a dry start with 2 square inches of UG and two months later decided to add a bit more. So this is a 3 month dry start, if you want to call it that. I am using 50% RO and 50% Tap. The Tap water is very hard, with a 7.8 ph. I will be dosing EI dry ferts daily.

Future Residents are:
Danio Erythromicron (Emerald Dwarf Rasbora) 4-6 of them
1 Amano Shrimp
Dry Start with supplies that have all arrived:
Gotta Love ADA:
And also thanks to ADA, here is my Mountain Dew Water, caused by tannins. The water is very clear, but has the tea or Mountain Dew Color to it. It has been very clear the whole time but within a few hours of filling it started to turn yellow. I'm doing 50% water changes daily to hopefully beat this tannin garbage. I plan on picking up some Purigen. Not sure if that will help though:
I'm not sure when to start dosing EI. I think I am going to wait a bit and see what this water does. UG doesn't require a lot of ferts and I do have aquasoil.
Purigen works amazingly well it should do the job in 48 hours.tanks looking great.can't wait to see it once things start growing. You not going to use co2?

Thanks. I am using the GLA paintball regulator with a 20 oz paintball tank. I'm running between 1 and 2 bps. Its keeping the drop checker yellow. I need to pick up another tank as a backup now.
Sorry should have read the whole post haha. Looking good. I've never used paintball co2 systems before.i use dupla (its german and I'm not sure if it can be purchased in the us)
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
No problem. I'm pretty impressed with the GLA paintball regulator. It seems to hold great so far. I'm pumping the CO2 pretty good so we will see how long it lasts. Its only 3 dollars to refill so its not a big deal.
Nice setup and everything looks like it's growing well. I was thinking about picking up a gla paintball regulator as well, are they any good?
really nice set up, this thing is gona thrive!
Oh, and I like the tools. They're great for a mini m in my opinion.
No pictures but still an update. I added some purigen and the yellow water is fading. It is almost back to the first pics I posted. Added two Amano shrimp tonight.
The water is testing 0,0,5. Going to let the tank settle with the danio and the amanos for a little bit before adding the real fish.
Nice tank! Not a huge fan of iwagumi but that is a sexy tank! Keep it updated :D:)
This is looking nice
Your making me want to get a Mini M or L.
Can't wait till the UG fills in.
Any updates?
Where do you get your 20oz filled? It costs 4.00 at dicks!

And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks (edition 2009)
by William S. Burroughs, Jack Kerouac
Work details
And the Hippos Were Boiled in Their Tanks by William S. Burroughs
I remember reading about this time period and the central incident in Vanity of Duluoz (and in Kerouac biographies), but it was sort of interesting to read the early writing of Kerouac and Burroughs. There was a lot of that aimless "we did this for awhile and then we did that and then we stopped for a drink" without the reflection or digging into the empty center that would characterize Kerouac's later work. And I have to say the troubling aspects of the relationship and murder at the center of the plot seemed to be ignored, not only in the book, but in all of the writing about the book and the incident that I've read so far. Maybe the new movie--Kill Your Darlings--will change that...and maybe not. I look forward to reading Vanity of Duluoz again some day. The first Kerouac I ever read, even though it was one of his last works.
I really enjoyed reading this! Quite a snapshot of the life and beginnings of the Beats! But boy oh boy were they a bunch of moochers!
Well, this was my first Beat novel and I read it because my interest was peaked by a podcast on This American Life, featuring William S. Burroughs as told by Iggy Pop.
This book was interesting because it was written in 1945 but not published until 2008 (after all persons the story was based on were dead). Also because alternating chapters were written by Jack Kerouac and William Burroughs, and it was based on a true life murder in which they were both indicted for knowing the killer and the victim. Many say the murder led to the beginning of the Beat movement? I wouldn't be qualified to even guess at that, being a Beat "virgin" prior to this book, but I may be willing to try a few more novels.
I've heard a lot of the names mentioned in the Afterword in the past, but never gave the Beat movement much thought - except what I saw in movies as a generation who smoked heavily in underground bars, read strange poetry to a conga drum beating in the background, dressed in black turtlenecks, pegged black pants, black berets and thick black glasses. Also, I always thought the Beatniks were part of the 1960s. I didn't realize they started in the 1940s. I also learned that author Caleb Carr ( [The Alienist] ) is the son of Lucian Carr - the murderer the story is based on. I learn so much when I read.....
Finally, my first Beat novel! It's been a long time coming, though I'd always assumed On the Road would be my first... but whatever. I got this one from the library right after I bought Kill Your Darlings on DVD and realised that the book was essentially a thinly-veiled novelisation of the real events depicted in the film. Labelled a 'crime noir', I actually didn't think it felt that way at all; the murder is a fleeting thing right near the end of the book. It's incredibly easy to read, filled with tiny mundane details that build up a picture of a bohemian alcohol-fuelled lifestyle largely consisting of bar hopping and drifting in and out of each other's homes to eat, sleep, love, talk and dream. I also liked the insight into how boys would 'ship out' to work at sea, and how that process worked. An odd one, this, in that I didn't rank it THAT highly, yet I think I'll really enjoy rereading it in the future.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0802144349, Paperback)
In the summer of 1944, a shocking murder rocked the fledgling Beats. William S. Burroughs and Jack Kerouac, both still unknown, we inspired by the crime to collaborate on a novel, a hard-boiled tale of bohemian New York during World War II, full of drugs and art, obsession and brutality, with scenes and characters drawn from their own lives. Finally published after more than sixty years, this is a captivating read, and incomparable literary artifact, and a window into the lives and art of two of the twentieth century's most influential writers.
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:13:48 -0400)
A hard-boiled tale of bohemian New York during World War II, full of drugs and obsession, art and violence, that brings to life a shocking murder at the dawn of the Beat Generation.

Killing not required. Check the reckoning page starting tonight at midnight, and it will be available. It will cost $15 instead of $10, but that's the breaks.

Don't listen to this man. Go forth and kill!
alot of the shirts on this website would be infinitely better if the tagline were on the shirt itself. Today's shirt and the 'jurassic parka' shirt are the best examples of this.

Great shirt for sure, but I'm sort of scratching my head about the illustration myself in this regard. It's spot on the admiral from Return of the Jedi.
Shhhhh! I was hoping someone could help me out with my list!!! ;)
How did I possib-lie miss this! It's the first time anything's ever gone wrong.
Totally predicted a sellout and grabbed two shirts quickly. I hope everyone gets a chance to buy one at reckoning.
Dang it! I got the ear worm too! Another silly question, but I'm always good for that.....what magic number constitutes a sell out?
I thought this shirt was hilarious when i first saw it, but i don't think it would be something i would wear. the art is just too big, too centered, and too solid for anyone over the age of 15 to be wearing.
I can easily see this image showing up around the internet more often though, so mad props for that one, i guess?
whoa, teefury and Manos: The Hands of Fate (1966).woot switched places today.

I am so sad that I missed this one! I might have to swing the extra $5 tomorrow to buy it. LOVE!!!
Congrats Matt!
awesome tee! I love it!

Fantastic design Matt, Congratulations!
My son will be so mad! We were running late for school, and I said I'd buy it after I dropped him off. Missed it by minutes. I hate paying $15!
Focus all firepower on the Super Star Destroyer!
i wasn't aware shirts would actually sell out, i should have jumped on this one
Doesn't this seem somewhat close to infringing? Lucasfilm is notoriously not thrilled about unlicensed use of its properties and this does straight-up use the image of a Lucasfilm character, not even hidden or anything. What are the guidelines for this sort of thing?
::CRIES:: sold out...
I bought that Egyptian Mario shirt, and what happens?
Every shirt after it happens to be amazing.
This and Alien Invader are the best shirts I've seen in a while.
I want this! /sad
I simply adore w00t song write-ups (it really helps when I know the song!) They leave no syllable unsung. I may even have to sing these lyrics instead of the original - sorry Paulie. They've already changed the way I sing "Here Comes the Sun"......"sun, sun, sun, W T F"
My wallet couldn't repel awesomeness of that magnitude!
congrats of the well deserved sell out!
Reprint! NOW PLZ KTHX
I've never needed a shirt like I need this one.
This one made me giggle a little.
Most woot shirts I don't find very appealing. But this one... This ones a winner, and sadly its sold out. I'd give my left testi for this shirt.
Maybe not anatomically correct, but freakin' hilarious. I'm sorry I missed it!

But on a serious note, I'm wondering if Lucas's lawyers are going to come after Woot for IP issues.
