The past 60 years have seen the emergence and development of a dynamic and unique art form in coastal towns situated close to Accra, the capital of Ghana in West Africa.
This trend began in 1951 when two carpenters decided to honour their late grandmother's dream to fly by burying her in a coffin shaped like an aeroplane. Soon other families began to commission coffins that represented the life achievements or aspirations of deceased relatives, or characterised aspects of their personality.
Many coffins take the form of traditional status symbols such as this eagle, which is believed to have been inspired by the eagle-shaped palanquins used to carry chiefs on important public occasions. A coffin of this shape would be suitable for the burial of a man of some social standing in his community.
This eagle coffin was made in 2000 in the workshop of Paa Joe (full name Joseph Tettah Ashong) by a team of specialist carpenters. Paa Joe was one of the first craftsmen to make representational coffins, which are all handmade on commission. Plans, photographs and sketches are rarely used. Instead, the components are drawn directly on to the wood which is then sawn out, planed and painted. In some cases up to 20 individually cut and shaped pieces of wood are required to form the shape of the coffin, depending on the model ordered. The eagle coffin's body, lid and base are carved from the hardwood of the wawa tree (triplochiton scleraxylon), which does not crack and resists attacks from insects. The two wings are carved from separate pieces of wood and are joined to the body using metal hinges which allow them to be folded down flat or to be extended.
In Ghana, death is traditionally viewed as a transition from the world of the living to that of the ancestors. Ancestors are believed to exert influence and power over their living relatives, so it is important to show them love and respect. One of the ways of doing this is to bury deceased family members in expensive coffins and hold big funerals. On the day of the funeral the deceased is processed through town to the graveside and large crowds of mourners will have the opportunity to see the coffin for the first time.
Although traditional subjects such as the eagle remain popular, casket choices reflect changing fashions and social aspirations. Modern consumer goods such as laptops and mobile phones provide the models for innovative new coffin shapes.
The popularity of these so-called fantasy coffins continues to grow and has stimulated a thriving industry in Ghana. And thanks to the internet, fantasy coffins can now be ordered online and are exported all over the world to meet the needs of the diasporic Ghanaian community.

Diplo Interview
Diplo's latest project is a book, 128 Beats Per Minute: Diplo's Visual Guide To Music, Culture, and Everything in Between (Universe). It's a collaboration with photographer Shane McCauley and features a glowing forward by designer Alexander Wang. The book details his world travels and his sonic discoveries as he delves into everything from dub reggae in Jamaica to the electro/techno scene in Tel Aviv. "Right now, all we have are party pictures and fliers, and that bit of soul isn't there as the scene lingers in the mainstream," Diplo told us. "I wanted to document what is really going on, right now, in the world of dance parties and raves. It just shows how there is a connection between all these things we take for granted."
From some luxurious place in Los Angeles, Diplo talked to us about about girls, relationships and making the most out of Valentine's Day.
What songs top your romantic playlist?
That's pretty hard. Something like Massive Attack "Protection" is up there, or Van Morrison "Astral Weeks."
What was the worst date you've ever been on?
[Laughs] I don't go on dates, man.
Any spectacular girls you just can't shake?
There was this one time I hung out with a singer/songwriter girl. We had some whisky, and I was nervous and so far from charming. Luckily she stayed in touch even though I was so lame. She was my crush for so long.
First kiss story?
I can't remember that, but I do remember I kissed this girl in middle school that was my enemy, my arch rival, but one day we happened to run into each other when we were in the street sneaking out of some school function at the convention center. We saw some police and we hid in a ditch and we started to make out. I think we both thought it was pretty weird, and we didn't speak about it again.
What is the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you in the sack? How did you recover?
Well, lots of embarrassing things happen with girls.
How has your perspective on love and sex changed in the last 10 years? What did you learn in your 20s?
I've learned a lot. You don't really have a chance with a real relationship unless you would give up everything for it. Now, I'm with an awesome girl with a baby, and I didn't plan it, but I couldn't ever ask for a better person to share this life with.
What are the most important things to remember about sustaining a happy, exciting relationship?
I have heard never go to bed angry, and that makes sense. Unless you're always checking yourself, a grudge or something small can break apart a relationship, and you start to forget what is so amazing about your partner.

text: Mt. Hope Cemetery in Bangor is open for walking tours. The cemetery is the oldest garden cemetery in the country, and it has graves dating back to before the early 1800's. The tour features tales of some of the area's most famous people shared by a costumed guide."It goes through mostly the corporate grounds, which is where the older and the more novel gravestones are located. We tell stories about the people who are represented there, about the meaning of the sculpture, and the different symbols that are used on the gravestones and the history of the cemetery itself," says museum curator, Dana Lippitt. The next Mt. Hope Cemetery walking tour is Friday, September 6th at 5:00pm. Tickets are $10 for adults, and $5 for kids ages 6-12 years old. The tour begins at the cemetery superintendent's office. The Bangor Museum and History Center will be starting a new twilight tour of the cemetery in October.

you are who you are so who cares what the other teachers think

At the beginning of every year I build a powerpoint to show the kids (8th grade Science) a little bit about the life of their teacher. This year I included pictures of my family, vacations and my hobbies which includes me at the range and pics of my weapons. When I showed this to my team they came unglued. They said I shouldn't be showing pictures of guns at school and especially letting the students know that I own some. The purpose of the powerpoint is to personalize myself and to let them know a bit about who I am. I teach at a predominantly middle class school in a growing city with very little crime. I don't think there is anything wrong with the presentation. What do you think about this situation?
you are who you are so who cares what the other teachers think
do what you can with what you have where you are at (theodore roosevelt)
When I was in high school, it wouldn't have been an issue. Of course then, several pick-ups in the student parking lot had gun racks in them (most were not empty). My JROTC class had marksmanship practice on a regular basis, too.
Now, they suspend eighth graders for drawing a picture of a gun in their notebook. The ones I drew would get someone expelled.
If I still had school aged children, I'd home school them. Liberals have taken over public schools, and parents who are not pro-active are resulting in poorly educated adults who spout the "party line". You have my condolences for being one of the minority who are not warped, stuck in a broken system.
I think it's insane to try to pretend that noone owns guns, or that only bad people do. Unfortunately in some places it might be enough to get you canned if you don't play along. If it is only coworker opinions then I'd do my own thing in a heartbeat, but if it could mean my job I'd have to have to bow down to utter ignorance that runs society.

Sad Tim - very sad.
But for me too hardly a surpise, in this PC, zero tolerance, near impotent society surrounding us. I wish it were such that you could show this material - show folks what you enjoy and educate them broadly - even perhaps dispelling some gun myths.
However - I expect you will be out numbered on this. I can these days too imagine, if you showed a pic holding a prize salmon you'd caught - the huggers would be on to PETA to complain ... even worse if you stood beside your last deer kill - that would be guns and hunting ... intolerable!
Sorry state these days ....... I wish you luck in your quest for openess and honesty about your persona but - you are up against ''them''.

Somehow I had envisioned Texas as largely free of most of the PC crap many of us deal with. Guess it really is a creeping disease.
Sorry, Tim. I've found that type of "PC" crap is growing alarmingly fast in Texas, especially in new fast growing areas like Frisco. I think a bunch of the DFW "Escapees" that move out to the likes of Frisco, Southlake, McKinney, _____ (you fill the blanks) are actually pretty neurotic and yearn for the "carefree" lifestyle they thought they were buying into. The "utopia" "they grew up with".....
They thought they were going to utopia without crime, drugs, accidents, bad folks, and the like. You just disturbed their visualization of what they thought they had accomplished, never considering there might be an alternative vision, or a more fact based reality.
You woke them up a little. Who doesn't get PO'd when awoken from a nap?

Great opportunity to discuss the Constitution. Start with freedom of speech, RKBA, innocent until proven guilty...
Put the teachers who complain on the spot to prove how this is offensive, and how their attempt to stifle your opinion is justifiable. How is their voice, even if you're outnumbered, any more valid than your own. Isn't that what the 1st Amendment is about?
Make sure you're discussing responsible gun ownership. Most importantly, know that the students are old enough to think for themselves, with your reasonable guidance.
You must be new to teaching Tim... I do not teach but have multiple liberal family members who do as well as one libertarian friend. He has learned that to get tenure in the public school system you need to keep your mouth shut about any issue the UFT is not in support of. Guns is one of them.
Hope you already got tenure (although I am against the very principal of it) before you let your coworkers know where you stand.
Are you surprised? If they ARREST and try to convict 13 yr olds for sexual battery for slapping girls on the bottom....Why wouldn't they crucify you for showing pictures of guns? "They" being schools across the country.
I am presently teaching in a local high school.
In another life before retirement I was in administration...I see both sides!
Now, I too put up with the general 'liberal, anti-gun, anti-Bush' crowd...daily! Actually, I don't think I would have pushed the gun pic's in my classroom. Not because I couldn't, but because it isn't worth the hassle, either from parents or admin. Heck, some schools give students a problem because they DRAW pictures of guns, or wish to have their yearbook picture reflect an award they won in a skeet shoot...nope...can't do that!
Some times you have to lose a battle to win the war. I would pick and choose my battles...there are other opportunities to educate others about our reasons for having firearms.
Now I have had conversations about weapons, hunting, self-defense, etc., in my classroom, but it's after I get to know the kids. I kind of feel my way around the staff and admin when it comes to those sensitive topics...I tread slowly. Some staff now know my feelings about self-defense and weapons.
It is perhaps, an advantage that I work in a small rural town. Many kids, parents, and some staff/admin have and use firearms...there are some very liberal individuals who still believe in the right to own firearms, and you wouldn't want to attempt a 'break-in' at many of our family homes...you wouldn't leave alive!
Still, I'm really careful about how I approach the subject!

Forget the teachers. What about your immediate supervisor?
I think you should have a talk with your supervisor and find out his take on your sharing who you are with your students. Not just the guns aspect, but the concept of having your students getting to know you.
You are in a position where you can educate young people concerning our history and the Constitution and the importance of firearms. This is not political at all unlike the communist/liberal nonsense that is constantly drummed in during the liberal indoctrination process. It is simply an objective description of our proud heritage.
Welcome to MY world....for the last 18 years. Mostly my colleagues leave me alone on the issue....especially since I now teach high school and have for the last 12 years. Every now and again when one of my pro 2nd Amendment letters gets printed in the Miami Herald (I average four or five pubs a year) and the next school day there will be hushed whispers around the sign-in board quickly silenced with this: "Here he comes. Don't SAY anything, you'll only encourage him!" They all know I'm a former LEO and a former army officer. They also know I'm a life member of the NRA and an NRA firearms instructor. Sometimes I even wear my NRA Instructor's shirt to school. Nobody has ever said a word in any of the four or five schools I've worked. I've also been a social studies Teacher of the Year. I'm good and they know it. So I get left alone. I push the envelope...hard.
But I know my subject and my thrust is "critical thinking:" Teaching students the difference between ISSUES AND AGENDAS. How to recognize a valid issue versus the times when a person tries to run an AGENDA with the purpose of manipulation. I HAMMER them to always find out all sides of a subject (thereby creating an ISSUE) instead of just listening to one side of a subject (thereby creating an AGENDA) I make them challenge me and research my assertions. In doing all of this I weave a very tight curriculum in whatever subject I teach. This year it's AMERICAN HISTORY and American Government and Sociology. All great subjects. It's going to be another great year.
I really have one serious character flaw: I love to find the buttons on a liberal and push them. I was sitting in the teacher's lunchroom at the middle school where I taught (middle school teachers are REALLY the warm and fuzzy drooling liberals we all love to ridicule) when suddenly one of them piped up across the room. He yells at me so that every teacher in the areas stops to watch. "Hey! Is it true that you're a member of one of those whacko MILITIAS?"
I look at him and grin a truly evil smile as I reply: "Naaaaaw. Between active and reserve time I spent 14 years in the army infantry as an officer. I don't need that stuff. But I'll tell you this....it's not because I disagree with what they believe....it's because I don't think they can teach me anything ....new." I never saw a room empty so fast. I chortled all the way home. You see: I live for the battle. I always have. It's an observation my late mom used to make all the time. But I know my limits. I know the lines I can't cross and I live to fight another day.

I am also a middle school teacher (in PA). I teach in a rural district where a fair number of my students are hunters, etc. I have in the past talked about hunting and guns with some students, but never to an entire class. I think before showing the students your PP I would:
1. Check with your principal to see if they have a problem with this.
2. Check with your union rep to see how much they will back you if there are any problems.
Things being what they are, it just is common sense to cover yourself as much as possible.

Flooring removal and replacement...
I am considering replacing our dingy old carpet and linoleum and have some questions. I plan to use a floating tongue and groove wood floor and either vinyl or ceramic tiles in the bath laundry and maybe kitchen.
My first question is wether or not it is advisable to use any wood flooring in the kitchen? Or just play it safe and tile that area? If I were to tile the kitchen area, since it is open to the living/dining area and the floors will meet, does it matter which flooring is put down first? I mean, which material is more important to square up first? Or would it not really matter since T-moulding would be used to cover the joint?
What is the common practice when all the baseboards are already in place? Should they be removed prior to the new flooring install or just leave them in place and use quarter round to cover the expansion joint? What are the chances of removing the baseboards without causing damage to the baseboards and or the walls? Is there a particular tool which makes that job easier?
What type of substrate will you be installing flooring over? (concrete, wood, ?)
If you are removing the existing flooring materials to start from scratch from the existing subfloor, then you won't need to remove any baseboards. Just install your materials per manufacturer instructions while using the proper surface prep, tools, adhesives, etc.
Even if the material looks like it's super easy and simple to install ALWAYS go to the manufacturers own website and study the product files containing the surface prep required, installation method required, and any other information that you can track down prior to doing anything. There are typically lots of small details that are easy to overlook that can absolutely destroy your floor if you don't know about them. For instance, most manufacturers want you to leave a 1/4" - 1/2" expansion joint around the perimeter of the flooring to allow for seasonal expansion and contraction, etc. Most of them also say that if your subfloor dips or peaks more than 1/4" in a 10 foot span anywhere that you'll have to float/grind/fix it.
To make a long story short there is a lot of terrible misinformation out there and a general rule that you should always employ is to get your information from the source of the material. And when I say source I don't mean some hourly guy at a box store who maybe glanced at a flooring pamplet a few months ago, I'm referring to the manufacturer producing the material you want to install. They even have technical experts that you can call if you have any questions that aren't clearly answered in their product info files on their website. Don't hesitate to call them either, that's what they're there for.
As far as the order of installation you'd want to go, tile, floating hardwood, vinyl, and then carpet. The layout of your home might affect the last 3 slightly, but no matter what you'll want to get any tile done first.
As far as the floating hardwood in your kitchen are you referring to a laminate? Engineered hardwood? Or? They both have their ups and downs in a number of important catagories. Do you have pets? Kids?
If you have time to answer some or all of the above questions I could probably at least give you a rough idea of what might work better for you and why.. also, and this is probably the most important question, are you doing all of the installation? The proper installation of tile is actually quite involved, a LOT more involved than anything that is ever shown on HGTV, so if you decide to go that route then I can probably list out the majority of the steps that you would/should take to ensure a long lasting trouble free installation. I would never bid a job sight unseen, but most of what I would list out would be pretty general details regarding most installations.
Good luck with your project.
I plan to do all of the work myself. I have helped install ceramic floor tile and recently tiled my shower so I do have a good idea of what I'm getting myself into.
The subfloor is wood. I have not pulled any flooring up but from looking in the crawl space it looks like the same material and construction as OSB.
We agreed on a 5/8" solid bamboo tonge and groove material.
We have a dog and plan to have children.
Wont the baseboards end up looking short with the flooring and quarter round though?

No matter who takes the Upton Park helm next season, it's unlikely they'll be willing to retain the services of Hammers outcast Alou Diarra.
He arrived in East London as a 44-cap France international, but the defensive midfielder has since gone on to make just six Premier League outings for West Ham and recently labelled his £2million move from Marseille in summer 2012 as a 'bad career choice'.
It's not worked out too well for the Hammers either, and even during a short loan stint with Rennes last season, then-manager Frederic Antonetti criticised Diarra for his lack of commitment.
Still eating up the Upton Park wage bill and with a year left on his £28k per-week contract, the next Boleyn boss will surely be keen to move on the Frenchman in a bid to free up funds.

Re: '87 Hobie Holder
I will be taking a look at an '88 Hobie Holder 14' this weekend and I hope that it turns out well. I am new to sailing and I have found it difficult to find an affordable place to sail as most clubs have steep initiation fees. I am also in an area of
South Florida where small boat sailing is almost non existent. I would have to travel an hour to Miami, five times a month, to get my moneys worth out of Sail Laser and rentals shops have mostly Cats, with high seasonal fees for tourists.
I have seen some lemons in my searches and I am hoping that this will be the one. I will let you know how I get along.
'87 Hobie Holder
We just purchased an 1987 Hobie Holder 6 months ago. Since we bought it in the fall, we didn't get a lot of time to sail it in good wind. So far this season we've taken it out a few times with some good wind and it's turned out to be a handy little boat.
It's really wide and has a drop centerboard and fixed Rutter. Absolutely do not like the fixed Rutter and we are looking to replace it as soon as we can. The boat has no control without the centerboard and Rutter. We usually sail in a shallow lake so we have to paddle out to the middle before we can drop the centerboard and Rutter and gain more control.
Other than that, it's been a great little boat. We put in a little elbow grease when we first got it. It fits 4-6 people comfortably. Nice deep cubby in the front holds life jackets, dry bags, etc.
The sails were in pretty good shape when we found it. The jib furls up which is nice. Wondering if anyone else out there has one and what they think of it?

Guide To Wireless Security: Wi-Fi Anxiety
Lock up your laptops. Secure your airwaves. In the wide-open world of wireless, it isn't easy to keep out intruders.
For Kanawha County, West Virginia, the hacker's attack last December was a wireless nightmare. From a car parked outside the county courthouse, a silent intruder used a laptop with a wireless modem to ride the radio waves straight into the county's computer network. With a couple of keystrokes, he had seized control of the e-mail account of Kent Carper, one of the county's three elected commissioners, and sent county staffers a series of false and potentially damaging messages. He asked staffers to cut a $75 million check. Then, in an act of sheer bravado, the hacker took his tools inside the courthouse lobby, sat down between two state troopers and zipped off more bogus messages.
Nobody noticed a thing.
Fortunately this hacker meant no real harm. In fact, Kanawha officials paid him for the service. They wanted to find out how vulnerable their computer network, which included some snazzy new wireless components, was to attack. The answer--very vulnerable-- forced the county to shut down the wireless portions of its network. Wireless networking, it seemed, left all the data in the county's computers free for the taking. "Wireless security? I call it wireless insecurity," says the real Kent Carper, who ordered the hacking test done. "It's like leaving the doors to the county courthouse unlocked at night."
Wireless networks and gadgets are sweeping state and local government, but so is panic about wireless security. To be sure, the threat of hackers invading government networks is nothing new. But the new technology gives hackers, or "whackers" as wireless hacks are sometimes called, lots of new options. They can try to pluck sensitive government information literally out of the air. They might steal an employee's laptop or personal digital assistant for a front-door entrance into a network. Or they can wiggle the knobs of a number of wireless back doors, as Kanawha County's friendly hacker did. "You have to be really careful deploying wireless," says Tony Rosati, vice president of marketing at Certicom, a vendor specializing in wireless security. "The whole motivation for going wireless is better connectivity, but it gives that connectivity to everyone, including hackers."
Wireless worries among state and local agencies are so severe that many are holding back until a new generation of products comes out with stronger security features. They are following the lead of the federal government, which seems squeamish about using wireless, especially where national security concerns are at stake. The Pentagon in September extended a moratorium on the use of wireless devices for holding or transmitting classified information, citing the "exploitable vulnerabilities" of wireless technology. That finding was echoed by a November report from the National Institute of Standards and Technology, which recommended government agencies take a cautious approach to wireless security. "The technology's underlying communications medium, the airwave, is open to intruders," the report said.
Still, a growing number of state and local agencies feel confident they can keep the whackers out. And in any case, they're finding that the benefits of going wireless are well worth the risk. Police departments are starting to beam digital mug shots and fingerprints over the radio waves to laptops in squad cars. Auditors and inspectors are using PDAs to file reports from the field. Utility workers are using networked laptops to view maps on the scene during water main breaks. In all these cases, wireless offers a big productivity advantage: It saves mobile workers the hassle of making trips between the office and the field.
Wireless isn't just for field staff, though. It's increasingly popular in the traditional office environments of state buildings, courthouses and city halls. Even simple off-the-shelf hardware gives workers the freedom to haul their laptops to a conference room, for example, without having to plug in for Internet access or network connectivity. It's more than convenience that makes wireless local area networks, or LANs, attractive. Wireless hardware can prove much cheaper than lacing miles of cable through walls and under floors. And in historic buildings such as statehouses, where drilling holes through marble walls might prove difficult (or even illegal), wireless is sometimes the best networking option available.
Yet it is exactly this sort of in-the-office wireless that has the worst security track record. While "Wi-Fi" technology, also known commonly as 802.11, is usually intended for users inside a building, it also broadcasts the wireless signal out onto the street. Anyone can sniff out the location of a wireless network using commonly available programs with such odd names as "Airsnort" and "Netstumbler." It is a familiar game among computer geeks to take a laptop in a car on so- called "wardriving" trips around a city to find where these networks are. This is how the Kanawha hacker broke into the county's system so easily from the parking lot.
Wi-Fi equipment generally comes with security features, but some users simply forget to turn them on. Even when on, however, the security built into the current generation of basic Wi-Fi devices is so weak that any amateur can crack it. Unless information technology managers proactively layer in additional security features, hackers can somewhat easily gain carte blanche access to anything on the network. Not only can they steal sensitive government information, plant viruses and corrupt databases, but they can also pirate the government's systems to launch attacks on somebody else's computer network. Such an attack would falsely appear to be the work of a government employee rather than the hacker. "By default, these things are highly insecure," says Steven Jones, director of technology in Blacksburg, Virginia, where city officials have been using a wireless LAN to do some employee training. "You really need to put some time and energy into researching how to secure them."
The good news is that not all wireless devices are riddled with so many security holes. And the ones that are can be made secure enough to keep all but the most sophisticated hackers out. It takes some effort, though. Wireless networks require meticulous planning and relentless follow-up on the latest threats to break-ins and the newest methods for beefing up security. It's also a good idea to enforce strict policies about the laptops and handheld computers floating around in employees' hands--whether they're government-issue or not. "It's a matter of deterrence," Jones says. "You want to make your network difficult enough to break into that an intruder will say, 'The heck with this; I'll try someone else.'"
Some of the earliest Wi-Fi adopters in state and local government were legislatures. Not long after the Internet became popular, lawmakers demanded the ability to tote laptops around their capitol buildings and log on without a wire. But they don't like to discuss their security policies with outsiders, fearing that hackers might game any hints to their advantage. "The first element of our security policy is that we won't share, publish or make available the details of our security policy," says Michael Adams, director of legislative information services for the Colorado General Assembly.
In Florida, Sean Johnson, the IT director for the Florida House, agrees to speak with a reporter about security--and only at the most rudimentary level--only after verifying his identity. "We're really concerned about 'social engineering' attacks where hackers call us posing as someone they're not and ask a lot of questions," Johnson says.
One reason why wireless LANs are a security problem is that they're not very complicated to set up. The basic off-the-shelf technology is pretty cheap. Laptop users must install a special wireless modem, while handheld computers usually have these built in. The modems send signals back and forth to a box, called an "access point," that connects directly into the network. Access points have a range of about 300 feet and can both transmit and pick up radio signals through walls. Setting up a statehouse for wireless access requires scattering a half-dozen or more access points throughout the building.
Securing a wireless LAN, Johnson says, happens at a number of different levels. First there's authentication. Wireless laptop users have to enter an ID and password to log on, just as they would on a wired network. Next, the data being passed between the laptops and the network is encrypted, so that even if it is plucked out of thin air, it won't be easily readable. Finally, there's a security layer with the wireless computers themselves: Each machine has a unique identifying number. If a lawmaker loses a laptop or it is stolen, Johnson can lock the machine out from accessing the network.
There's more. Any hacker attempt to cut through these security layers would show up on an "intrusion detection system" that Johnson's staff uses. And on the off chance an intruder gets through, he won't find much: Data on the wireless network are kept separate from the legislature's internal network. "Even if a hacker is smart enough to get through all those layers of security, he's only into the wireless part," Johnson says. "That's still bad, but it's nowhere near as bad as if he's into the rest of the network."
Florida is reaching well beyond the notoriously weak security features that come with off-the-shelf equipment. Their system uses 128-bit encryption, which makes it much harder to intercept and descramble data than usual. The trouble with Wi-Fi comes when users rely on the technology's weak security--or forget to turn it on in the first place. Another problem: "rogue" access points. Wireless technology is so cheap now that tech-savvy employees might be tempted to buy it and install it themselves in their offices or cubicles. Such a setup can jeopardize a government's entire network without the IT staff even knowing about it.
Publicized examples of attacks on government systems are rare but not unheard of. For example, the civil courts in Harris County, Texas, were experimenting last year with using Wi-Fi to connect computer systems in two buildings. A former courts employee, who went on a wardriving mission around Houston, sniffed out the wireless network and found it was easy to break into. The hacker, who insists he had no malicious intent, pointed out the vulnerability to the county's IT director.
It's likely that Wi-Fi worries will fade as industry groups work out new security standards and a new generation of wireless products hits the market. Does this mean that agencies that are itching to use Wi-Fi now should wait? Not necessarily. It just means that they have to be extra diligent about layering in additional security features. And they must understand that managing a wireless network comes with considerably more challenges than a wired one. "Today's security is tomorrow's hole," says Colorado's Michael Adams. "We're constantly battling new developments in wireless security that come up."
Talk with Terry Lowe and you'll get the impression that wireless anxiety is overblown. Lowe is the systems project manager in Lincoln, Nebraska, where municipal employees are getting hooked on Palm Pilots. Animal control officers use them to help locate owners of lost dogs. Parking enforcers use them to cross-check for unpaid parking tickets. Cops use handhelds to run license plate numbers and search for outstanding warrants. Even arborists use them to update databases showing the condition of city trees.
As Lowe sees it, the first step to wireless security is assessing risk. In Lincoln, the bulk of the data that city employees pass through the airwaves is public information anyway. So the city took steps to tailor wireless security to each agency, depending on the sensitivity of the information. "Take sidewalk inspection data," Lowe says. "If someone wants to snatch that out of the air, more power to him. We just don't see risk in that."
Lincoln's handhelds, like many wireless devices on the market, have robust encryption systems built in. They meet a standard known as FIPS 140-2, which NIST recommends for government users of handheld devices. In addition, since Lincoln's Palm applications are Web-based, all transactions run through a secure Web server.
Perhaps the biggest security problem with handhelds is that they are small enough to lose easily. According to University of Maryland marketing professor P.K. Kannan, who co-wrote a paper on mobile government, 80 percent of wireless security breaches happen when wireless devices are lost or stolen. Lowe has a solution for that, too. He keeps an inventory of serial numbers for each Palm in use. If an employee reports one lost or stolen, Lowe can block it from accessing Lincoln's network.
Police officers have been using laptops in squad cars to search criminal databases and do other simple tasks. Now departments are turning to a new generation of high-speed wireless networks that can send data-rich pictures through the airwaves. But there are security concerns. "The evolution toward automated, computer-controlled communications systems makes the threat of a system hacker more pressing," says a guide to communications security produced by the Public Safety Wireless Network, a federal initiative. "Depending on the system's features, hackers may infiltrate the system and reprogram radios, change security keys or reassign talk groups to different channels."
Police in Denver are testing a snazzy new wireless system where cops in their squad cars can use laptops to pull down mugshots, fingerprints, GIS maps and even detailed aerial photographs. The police officers can also receive and send e-mail from the field, something they couldn't do before. "Anything available to officers on their desktop is now available on the street," says tech chief Lieutenant John Pettinger, who is confident that his department has plugged the security holes.
Denver is using a service called Ricochet, which for many municipalities across the country is a name that echoes from the dot- com past. Ricochet runs on a network of transmitters hung mostly from streetlights, the leases for which a company called Metricom had negotiated with cities in 21 metro areas. Metricom later went belly- up, but in a fire sale, Denver-based Aerie Networks snatched up rights for the Ricochet network. Aerie is now negotiating with cities to light up the network again, so that it can sell service to private customers. And depending on the circumstances, the company is offering many cities free wireless access in exchange for using the light posts.
Denver was the first city to get Ricochet back on line (San Diego is the only other so far). It negotiated for 1,000 unlimited-access accounts, with modems, for free. The city is still figuring out how to divvy up the treasure trove among agencies, but police officials hope to have high-speed service in each of the city's 400 squad cars within months.
Pettinger seems unconcerned about security. The Ricochet signal does something called "frequency-hopping" from one light pole transmitter to the next, making it nearly impossible for hackers to grab data in mid-air. Ricochet also agreed to program the transmitters so that police data travel the airwaves in a different path than that of other private subscribers. Finally, Denver is using an encryption tool known as a "virtual private network," which industry experts agree only the most sophisticated hacker could crack.
Perhaps the greatest security risk is when cops stop for a break. They are prone to leave their squad cars unlocked when they dash in to buy coffee. Denver cops have had radios and shotguns stolen from their cars before. Are the laptops vulnerable? Pettinger has the ability to shut a lost or stolen machine out of the Denver Police computer network. Plus the thief would need to have--besides a ton of gumption- -the cop's user name and password. "Whenever you bring information out to people, you get more risk," Pettinger says. "But I think it's a manageable risk. Given the benefits officers are telling me they get from this, it's well worth it."

The SVT can very easily be the best car for H-stock. The Packwood tour this year and last year have been my only NT events that I've done, both of which I was able to place first. By no means am I an autox noob, with 13 years under my belt. Joe Austin is also no pushover. But both years I failed to put up the perfect run for both days, yet was still able to get the win. I just goes to show how well the car does in the class. I don't even have the optimal shock/strut setup. I was hoping to be able to compete with Jimmy Crawford at the National Championships, to see how well I can do against the best HS driver in recent history, but I heard he's racing something else, which is kinda a bummer.
Anyway, thanks for the recognition!
that is awesome to hear!
so far this season i'm doing pretty well in my HS svt, and we don't have a bad region either. it's only my second season, so it's good to hear the car has potential.
what size tire did you run?? it's hard to to fit a lot under these cars without rubbing too much.
nice driving!
I'm running 225/40 Hoosiers. They are slightly short than the stock size which helps alitte with the SVT's tall gears. Ian Basford, who was at the PW NT last year was running 245/40 Hoosiers on his SVT without rubbing as well, but I'm not too much of a fan of that size since it would be taller than stock. A good set of struts or an H&R front bar eliminates rubbing as well.
Nice work in HS!!! Looks like there was some focus domination in FSP too :D Good job to Omnifocus and Thenorm
yeah, i'm still on stock struts and stock fsb so i rub at times with my 215/45s.
i just put on some 225/45 v710's. they rub because of all the body roll, but that was expected.
i didn't even check the FSP results, that was stupid of me..
i saw Omni did pretty well in the Denver pro also.
focus domination FTW!
Great showing, guys! I can't wait to get in FSP next year [:D]
new car??^^
or did i miss something with the SVT being moved to FSP??
The gist of it is that in SP trim, compared to the 2.3L Foci that are already in FSP, the SVTF has worse gearing, worse motor, and is heavier. Lots of people have submitted letters, including SVTF owners like me, and 2.3L FSP competitors (Lorin, etc). The suggested change was published in June 2011 Fastrack, too.
I'm excited because it would allow modified SVTF's a chance to competitively autocross. SP seems to be the ideal place for the Focus SVT. My setup should be: Torsen, H&R Race, Koni Yellows, 15x7 TD PR1, 225/45/15 RS3 or z214 c71's, and a race seat of some kind. Somewhat unfortunately, huge tires are legal in SP. I will never spend the $ for 275 Hoosiers, but some guys will, and well, that sucks for guys like me :P
thanks for the links.
that would be outstanding if they moved the SVT over to FSP. DSP just does not make sense..
i saw that fast track. i like the new idea of ST(f)
where do you send the letters to? i'd be happy to send one in as i am an svtf owner as well.

A man from Mexico is going to prison for four years for his role in a major pot growing ring in Washington County.
53-year-old Moises Soto was sentenced Tuesday in federal court in Bangor.
He pleaded guilty last year to drug conspiracy and harboring illegal aliens.
Drug agents say in September of 2009, they found nearly 3,000 pot plants in Township 37, worth about $9 million.
Four men from Maine are still waiting to be sentenced in the case.
They're accused of running the operation with help from illegal aliens.
Haynes Timber Company is also charged with managing and controlling property used to make marijuana.
Besides prison time, Soto was also ordered to serve three years of probation.

Just wondering... How long do Ratties (small dog(s) ) live??

Best Answer
I don't know for sure how long they live, you could google Rat Terrier information and you should be able to find out. Recently I've read that the first year of a dog's life is equal to 16 human years. Their second year is equal to five human years, and then every year after that is equal to three human years.

your pretty close I would assume. Most smaller dogs have much longer lives then the big fellas.It is something like 7 years for the first 2 years and 3-5 years there after.i don't really keep those things in my mind becasue they are changing so often.
Just enjoy what you have.

I do know that smaller dogs generally live longer than big dogs. A little Pomeranian at 7 years is still in his prime, but a Great Dane at that same age is an OLD gentleman.

Small dogs live longer then big dogs. As long as you keep him healthy then he should live 15 years plus.
It is roughly 1 dog year = 7 human years but that really doesn't mean anything.

I have heard that small dogs live over 17 years. (yyyyeeeaaahhh!!!) I also heard that the average lifespan of a boxer is 5 years! Thats like a hamster! Not sure if that is true but I know they have lots of health probs. Shame cause I love the breed.

Dave Ryan (sportscaster)
|This biography of a living person needs additional citations for verification. (April 2010) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
Dave Ryan is a play-by-play announcer and reporter for CBS. He previously worked for ESPN.,[1] and began his start in broadcasting at UUTV, now called CitrusTV, the student-run TV studio at Syracuse University. He is also currently calling Major League Lacrosse for the CBS Sports Network. He previously called Rochester Rattlers games on ESPN3 with Evan Washburn.
He was born on June 20, 1967.[2] He is mostly known for calling PBA bowling events on the network alongside color analyst Randy Pedersen from 2002–2007.
He called other non-marquee sporting events on ESPN and its sister networks, such as lacrosse and the semifinals of the Little League World Series. In addition, he occasionally serves as a college football sideline reporter and a college basketball announcer, and served as a play-by-play man for NHL on ESPN and ESPN2 for a number of years. His signature phrases on bowling telecasts were "60 feet to success!" and "He's got all ten down." Some bowling fans criticized him for calling pins by a number, such as "number seven" instead of saying "the seven pin." Ryan was replaced by Rob Stone for PBA telecasts in 2007, but he has continued to call other bowling events on occasion, such as women's tournaments and college tournaments.
Dave Ryan's name is on a fairly short list of national bowling play-by-play announcers, with Chris Schenkel being the most well known after he spent 36 years calling PBA events for ABC. Denny Schreiner (ESPN), Jay Randolph (NBC/ESPN2), Mike Durbin (ESPN), Dick Stockton (HBO) and Rob Stone (ESPN) have also served as play-by-play announcers for bowling telecasts.
Ryan joined the NFL on CBS commentary team in 2009 as a play by play man, substituting for Gus Johnson in week 16.[3]
On February 2, 2012 Ryan agreed to call Major League Lacrosse games on the CBS Sports Network with Evan Washburn. Ryan also returned to PBA bowling broadcasts in June–July, 2013, when CBS Sports Network covered five events in the PBA Tour's "Summer Swing."[4]

Just bought a brand new 2013 escalade platinum with 23 miles on it. I'm putting my own 26" wheels on the car so I don't need the stocks. Again the wheels and tires are for sale and ONLY have 23 miles on them. I'm located in San Francisco Bay Area and will accept best offer. If shipping is needed, the buyer must pay all shipping costs. THESE ARE ABSOLUTELY AS BRAND NEW AS IT GETS! They are the 24" chrome platinum wheels.

I wasn't supposed to ask Guy Fieri about the restaurant review.
You know what I'm talking about: The Pete Wells review of Fieri's new Times Square outpost, Guy's American Kitchen And Bar, that ran in
The New York Times
last week. The one with such scathing — but hilarious — venom, the one written in question-form, the one that went viral overnight. I wasn't supposed to talk about it with Guy because, well, it wasn't a very positive review.
And everyone read it.
But when I found myself on the phone with Fieri earlier this week, it was all I wanted to talk about. I even had a series of questions prepared that I hoped would lead the blond-tipped chef into
to talk about it. And it could have worked, too, had Fieri — like a pro who knew what was coming (and he probably did) — not derailed me completely, right off the bat, into a discussion of the Chef's Challenge for a Cure in Toronto, which he is hosting this weekend.
I waffled, which is probably for the best. It's what we were supposed to be talking about, anyway.
"The best thing about being involved in this is I get to raise awareness," Fieri said of the Challenge over the phone from California, where he was en route to catch a flight to Toronto. "The fact that I can help, and share my story about my experiences with cancer, is the best thing."
Fieri is a prime candidate for hosting duties at the Challenge, not just because of his explosive persona, but because he lost his sister, Morgan Fieri, to cancer in 2011. So it's personal. "If it hasn't touched you yet, don't wait for it," Fieri says. "There's some really positive information we'll be sharing at the Challenge, and we'll be raising both money and awareness. It's a great thing to be a part of for me."
The Chef's Challenge for a Cure, now in its third year, pits some of Canada's top culinary personalities — with their own team of amateur cooks — against one another in an
Iron Chef
-style cookoff before a live audience, each of whom raised a minimum of $2,000 to benefit cancer research at Mount Sinai. This year's participating chefs are Chuck Hughes, Lynn Crawford, Mark McEwan, David Rocco and Michael Smith, and while Fieri is hesitant to spill who he thinks has the best chance at winning, he does offer a few observations.
"I know Mark won last year, and he's participated more than once, so that gives him an advantage," says Fieri, who himself has gone head-to-head with a fellow celebrity chef, Rachael Ray, in
Rachael vs. Guy: Celebrity Cook-Off,
the second season ofwhich premieres in on Food Network on Jan. 6. "But Chuck has been on
Iron Chef
, and one of the important things is focus. He knows how to focus. So you never know."
Fieri, 44, is a big-hearted guy with a big personality. The Californian got his start on the network in 2006 after winning the second season of The Next Food Network Star and his first series, Guy's Big Bite, made its debut that year. He has since become best known for Diners, Drive Ins and Dives, which kicked off in 2007, and will be filming in Toronto this week. He won't confirm any of the restaurants he plans to visit — though Hey Meatball, Caplansky's, the Lakeview Diner and the Stockyards have all but been confirmed.
So if you happen to see Fieri in the city over the next few days, ask him where he's eaten, and commend him on the Challenge.
Just don't ask him about the restaurant review.
—The Chef's Challenge for a Cure takes place Dec. 1 in Toronto. For more information, visit chefschallengeforacure.com.

Labour MP Heyes to stand down
Reporter: Iram Ramzan
Date online: 04 March 2014
LABOUR MP David Heyes intends not to contest his seat at the next General Election, for health reasons.
The Ashton MP, whose constituency includes Failsworth, has continued to work in recent years despite undergoing cancer treatment, from which he is said to be making a good recovery.
In a letter to his constituency party chairman the 67-year-old MP said: "You will be aware that I have had some serious health problems during the last couple of years. The brilliant treatment I have had from the NHS leaves me optimistic about being around for a good few years yet.
"But I don't feel I have been left with sufficient energy to get through another six years from now to the following election in 2020.
"The role of MP is very demanding and I think that, by next year, it will be time to hand over the reins to somebody younger and fitter."
Mr Heyes succeeded Robert Sheldon as MP for Ashton in 2001 and became only the third MP for the constituency since World War Two.
Mr Heyes said that it had been an "extraordinary privilege" to be able to represent his town for the last 13 years, which has seen big changes including new schools, new Metrolink lines, and more health centres and a new hospital in Ashton.
sorry to hear Mr Heyes is standing down.a man of principle.keep well Mr Heyes.
Best wishes Mr Heyes, I doubt the next MP will challenge the government [which ever colour] as fearlessly as David. Probably why this good man was never given a job under last two Labour Prime Ministers.
You've done your bit. Your priority now is to take care of yourself and your family.
Best wishes

Browns' owner savors rare victory over Steelers
CLEVELAND — Jimmy Haslam is new to this ownership thing, but he sure learned quickly how to celebrate a victory.
A former minority Steelers owner who plunked down $1 billion to buy the Cleveland Browns during the summer may have enjoyed the Browns' 20-14 win Sunday more than anybody else — especially witnessing the unusual and uncommon site of droves of Steelers fans heading to the exits.
"The biggest thrill was seeing the Steelers fans leaving early," Haslam said. "I've been there the other way. It was good seeing their fans leaving and our fans staying and cheering. It was great. It was a great win for our team — great win for our fans."
Haslam was a Steelers minority owner from 2008 until he bought the Browns in August, and he took a page out of the Rooneys' book when he greeted nearly every player in the locker room immediately following the game.
Suffice to say, this win meant a lot to him.
"I think sometimes things can go unsaid and they're pretty obvious," Cleveland coach Pat Shurmur said. "The games all count as one, but anytime you have a prior relationship with a club, I am sure privately you have a little bit stronger emotions."
Emotions were flying high after the Browns upended the Steelers to hurt their rival's playoff hopes heading into the final stretch of the season.
"Oh, definitely, without a doubt," linebacker D'Qwell Jackson said about dropping the Steelers into a tie with the Cincinnati Bengals at 6-5 in the AFC North. "I love to beat those guys. I don't like them, they don't like us. It's great to beat up on them."
For the Browns, there hasn't been much beating up on the Steelers lately.
They had lost four in a row to the Steelers and 16 of 17 in the series. The Steelers had won 11 of 13 in Cleveland since 1999.
"I know their fans travel well," tackle Joe Thomas said. "Maybe this will not want to make them travel to Browns Stadium now."
A lot of the Browns players, including return specialist Josh Cribbs, had enough of Steelers fans invading Cleveland year after year.
"The fans with jerseys and coats, the (fans) at the hotels around the city, get out of town," Cribbs said. "From a Cleveland Brown and a Clevelander, get out of Ohio. That's how we do it here."
After a slow start, the Browns turned it around Sunday the Steelers Way.
Cleveland ran the ball well with Trent Richardson (29 carries for 85 yards) and played smashmouth defense by forcing eight turnovers.
"Sure, the rivalry is in their favor now," Jackson said. "But we hope to change that. A lot of their guys didn't want to shake our hands (after the game), and I am OK with that. I'll take the 'W' every day."
For the majority of the Browns, including Shurmur, it was the first time they had beaten the Steelers.
"Last year, I got a taste of the rivalry, and I know how important it is to play good football against an outstanding football team," Shurmur said.
Added defensive back Joe Haden: "This is the biggest one since I've been here."

West MI SportsCenter Morning Edition - 08/01/2014
The Detroit Tigers made another big trade before the trading deadline yesterday as Cy Young award winner David Price is coming to Motown! The Tigers pulled off a three-team deal that sends pitcher Drew Smyly along with Whitecaps shortstop Willy Adames to Tampa Bay along with Seattle minor league infielder Nick Franklin. Tigers centerfielder Austin Jackson goes to the Mariners, and Price joins fellow Cy Young award winners Justin Verlander and Max Scherzer in Detroit's rotation.
On the field yesterday, Detroit lost to Chicago (7-4) in the series rubber match. New reliever Joakim Soria was charged with the loss. Tonight, Detroit opens a three game series against the Colorado Rockies. First pitch is 7:08pm at Comerica Park.
In other Tigers news, outfielder Andy Dirks will begin a minor league rehab assignment tonight with the West Michigan Whitecaps. Dirks was sidelined during his rehab stint with Class-A Lakeland earlier this month after he developed soreness in his back.
The Detroit Lions will have their first practice in pads today as training camp continues in Allen Park. Guard Larry Warford said yesterday that the ankle he injured on Wednesday during drills at Wayne State University is fine. Detroit also announced yesterday the team signed free agent defensive end Kris Redding, who went undrafted out of Wake Forest this year. To make room on the roster for Redding, the Lions released receiver Cody Wilson.
The West Michigan Whitecaps pulled out a (5-4) victory over Lake County last night, and tonight the Ft. Wayne TinCaps are in town. It's another Tiger Friday as the Whitecaps salute the 1984 World Series championship team with Tom Brookens in attendance along with San Diego Padre and former MSU alum Steve Garvey. First pitch is 7pm.
