creating psuedo studs
I am installing shelves in a closet. I was able to nail into studs in the back - but have nothing more than drywall on the sides. An attempt with anchors on one side led to a hole (ah, 5 X 6in). I went to a local lumber yard and got enough wallboard to repair the hole. The gentleman was nice enough to provide me some advice - drop wood through the hole where the shelf brackets would be screwed in, screw the wood to the wallboard above and below, then repair the wall using the wood for some backing, like it was a stud.
As a result, I wouldn't need anchors for that spot, because, as he put, now I've got some real meat to screw into. I joked, maybe I should do in for the other spots too - he sent me off with more wallboard in the event I did make more whole.
Is this a legit suggestion? If so, what is this method called? If so, can anybody provide me with a link to how to do it or provide me a little more detail on how this is done.
Yes, it would work if all you were going to install were a light weight shelf and NEVER PUT ANYTHING ON IT.
So, in reality, the answer is NO. It will not work.
What you should do, is this: When we install shelves in a closet, we install what would best be described as a 'skirt board' (1x) over the entire width of the back and a piece on each side, form the back up to the nearest found stud in the wall.
What we use for stock varies by what system we are installing. If we are planning on installing a cloth hanging rod, we would use a wider 1x board to hold both the rod and the upper shelf.
You can use clear pine. You can use 1x3 or up the 1x width.
You would attach this board directly to the studs. Then install your shelving to this OR on this. We install ON it.
Let me know if you have more questions...
Good Luck
I'm trying to understand this the best I can. First off, I'm struggling trying to understand how you made such a huge hole using anchors?? Depending on what you are going to put on the shelves, they make anchors that should hold up just find under pretty descent weight - Primarily the steel anchor hollow wall anchors
like this
However, there are other ways as well.
What size is the closet and what size shelves are you putting in. If you are installing deep enough shelves, and there are studs somewhere in the wall, like toward the front of the closet, you can use horrizontal pieces of wood, something like 1.5-2" or so and make little tables for the shelves to sit on. You know, installing the wood horizontally along each wall, right, left and rear, so that the shelf could sit down on the top edge.
As far as installing a stud to screw into, I'd try other things before I started tearing apart my walls to install a stud.
The closet is 38 inches wide. The shelves I are lightweight, the reinforced cardboard (MDF Composite Board - 1 inch thick). They are 11 inches wide. I plan on putting a second one 6 inches wide along side it for a total shelf width of 17 inches. I am attaching to the walls, 3/4 X 3/4 poplar horizontally, to lay the boards on, just as you described. Nothing fancier than that.
As far as the hole - (LOL) the anchor had loosened, so my better half decided he'd make a poplar slat a little more study by hammering in a nail at the one end - well - a little too hard with the hammer and the poplar busted thru the wallboard - the hole had to be bigger for the amount of chalk that crumbled.
That makes sense....
The material you refer to might be melamine?
There are no studs at all along the wall to scew the rail into, even in the front?
No studs at all - I even had to toe nail the back slats at the corner. I wouldn't be able to reach the stud in front due to the molding.
Yes, that's was it - melamine.
Run a 1x4 band completely across the back wall and the full depth (Probably 24 ") of the closet on the side walls. There will be studs in the corners into which you can toenail a large finishing nail, unless the closet was constructed as an afterthought by a previous owner. The cleat on the back can be smaller tha 1x4 if you prefer , but anything smaller on the side walls will not receive the ends of a typical hanging bar.When you talk about "anchors" , I wonder if you are trying to install wire shelving. If so, I know your frustration. Anchoring all the clips and shelf supports into the sheetrock with the trash anchors supplied is just giving yourself something to repair later.

MarineParents: Marine Family Network (MFN)
An Outreach Program of MarineParents.com
My son is a poolie scheduled to ship out to Boot Camp on July 8, 2013. He wants to get married and live with his soon-to-be spouse off base once he is assigned to a PDS. He is concerned that if he waits until after Boot Camp, it may take too long to process the paperwork for his spouse, become eligible to live off-base and get housing allowance....in short, all the logistics around ensuring his spouse is recognized as his spouse. Should these two get married prior to Boot Camp, or wait until he has graduated and get married during the window between Boot Camp and SOI?
Views: 9064
He might want to check with his recruiter, getting married befor boot camp might change his enlistment eligibility.
You might also ask in the wives and girlfriends discussions what some of their experiences have been.
Actually, I think the question is: Is she able to handle being in a new place, can she cope with the day to day stuff? The long hours, lack of communication and holding down the fort on her own? I guess I am asking, does she have a clue what she is in for? Boot could serve as a sample of how things COULD be.
Amen Marinewife22 and alex2toes (Dianne)!!!! I think there waiting would definitely help to make sure they can handle the changes that will occur. Waiting til PDS would probably be a better option and the paperwork does take a while from what I hear. LazyK-Chyn has a point as well...it might change his enlistment eligibility.
I would say as long as it doesn't affect his enlistment anytime is fine. It all depends on the couple. My husband and I got married two months before he left. He left Dec. 3 for boot camp. The paper work wasn't that bad. It was just a matter of getting all the appropriate documents in order and to the recruiter. I have been with my Husband since high school and we are 25 now. So we knew with out a doubt that we wanted to get married. If they are really ready to get married, the distance, long hours, etc. won't matter. I've heard of people getting married right after boot camp and during MOS school too. None of them had any problems, but that doesn't mean there won't be complications. Everyone's situation is different. Hope this helps!
Brittany, I think you kinda proved my point. If they are capable of handling things, go for it. There was no mention of age, so I kinda hedged my answer, just in case she was just out of high school.
Thanks for all the replies and helpful feedback! To add more context:
1. My son and his girlfriend are still in High School so my inclination is to advise him to wait until after Boot Camp since he does not really have a career, salary and benefits until then
2. I think she is ready for the challenges of being a military spouse but can never tell until it occurs; they are hell bent on tying the knot, though and since they are of age, I cannot actually stop them.....not that I would, she is a great young lady. I just have been encouraging them to wait until after BC.
Let this dad throw a couple of added items into the mix, based on posts that I've read in the past.
1. If he is assigned a PDS in Japan, she will NOT be allowed to accompany him. Accompanied tours in Japan are restricted to SGT and above, and it would be nearly impossible for her to receive permission from the Japanese government to move there or get a job without being on his orders. She would not be allowed any access to the bases or support facilities, and would not be eligible for a job on base.
2. If his unit is scheduled to deploy, would she want to live in area where she does not know anyone?
IMO, they would be better off waiting until he gets to PDS and gets situated.
As far as the paperwork goes, getting the ID cards and DEERS paperwork will take about a day, if that long.
Due to his rank, they probably would not qualify for on base housing, and might have to get permission from his unit to live off-base.
Just my experience. My husband and I got married shortly after he arrived at his first PDS. I'm really glad we waited until we did, partially because we were both able to save up money for travel, first month's rent and deposit, furniture, etc. but also because he ended up getting injured in boot camp and he spent a whole year on the recruit depot where I couldn't be with him anyway.
The only advantage that I can see to getting married sooner is financial. Once they're married, he will rate Basic Allowance for Housing. If they're married before he gets orders to his first PDS, the military will also pay for their moving expenses. If they're already married, it may be slightly less likely that they give him an unaccompanied tour overseas, but that really depends on the needs of the Marine Corps at the time.
As Jeff said, getting registered in DEERS is pretty easy and quick as long as you have the correct paperwork (official marriage certificate, a couple forms of ID).
I have had a different experience than what Jeff mentions about base housing. Whether or not on base housing is available really depends on the base. Some have waiting lists, some don't. Rank can affect how long the wait is. Where I am, Captains and Majors tend to have the longest wait. Junior Enlisted (Privates, PFCs, Lance Corporals) often have the shortest. I've never heard of a married Marine at his PDS needing command permission to live off base if he rates BAH. However, Marines at MOS school often are required to live in the barracks and would need permission to live out in town.
My general suggestion to those considering marriage is to do some pre-marriage counseling with a pastor or other third party. We found it extremely helpful to get advice and suggestions for discussion topics from someone other than friends or parents. Here are a few military-specific questions I would suggest.
1. What are our expectations for deployments/long training schools? Will the spouse remain at the base or move back with family?
2. What job or school options is the spouse expecting? What if we are stationed at a more remote location with few options?
3. What will our financial situation look like? Can we live on just the military income if necessary? What lifestyle expenses (cars, clothes, entertainment, travel, etc.) are important to each of us and are they realistic? What are our long term financial goals? (A recruiter should be able to give an idea of what the average PFC or Lance Corporal would be looking at for take home pay.)
4. What happens if we get married before boot camp or before MOS school and the Marine Corps doesn't work out due to an injury or other circumstances?
I know everyone's situation is different, but I like to have as much info and think about as many scenarios as possible ahead of time. I hope that's somewhat helpful.
Me and my Fiance are not getting married until June 16th, he left for boot Jan.14. Many people and friends that are Military spouses themselves told me that it would've been a better idea to do it before he left. I wanted to wait (to afford a better wedding) but now I'm running across many issues. If your son and his fiance are linked financially, he should make her POA for everything. That's been a huge issue for me. Most of the downsides to waiting are financial, but now I found out that if he leaves for his MOS school before our wedding it may be postponed for as long as 2 years because he cant take any leave during it. Circumstances matter. Being straight out of high school, they probably don't have those kind of circumstances to rush it though.

Can I fire my court appointed attorney before my jury trial on a misdemeaner case?
Question Details:
Yes, you can. A court appointed attorney is not a requirement. Although, since you are facing a criminal charge you should have legal representation. especially since you are facing trial. If you want to now hire a private counsel you can do so. If you want another PD appointed to your case you may be able to do that as well; getting one is not automatic however.
In order to get a new court-appointed lawyer, you will need to request a hearing for substitution of counsel. That means that you can get a different public defender to represent you so long as you can convince a judge that this is necessary in order for you to put forth a competent defense. To seek such a hearing, you should write a letter to the judge that is presiding over your case, requesting a meeting with them and why. A copy of your letter should be sent to both the lawyer that you want removed and the prosecutor. Make sure both copies and the original (which goes to the judge) are sent certified mail, return receipt requested; you also need to keep a copy for yourself. Be sure to need list all problems that you are having with your attorney. Keep the letter short and to the point. And be sure that it is truthful; you do not want to jeopardize your position before the judge by stretching the truth or making false claims.
Additionally, you can contact legal aid and see if they would take you case. If not, check to see if there is a law school nearby to where you live; they typically run free/low cost clinics that handle these type cases. Also, contact the local Bar Association in your county; they may have a list of attorneys who will take your case "pro bono" (for free) or at least for a reduced fee based on your income/circumstances.
Note: timing is crucial. Whatever you do, do it immediately.

ITworld.com –
After a long and torrid courtship, Bertelsmann AG said Friday that it has agreed to purchase Napster Inc. for US$8 million, and is reinstating Konrad Hilbers at the helm of the troubled song-swapping service.
The move comes just days after Hilbers and Napster founder Shawn Fanning quit the company out of frustration that they could not secure financing to keep the operation running.
Hilbers will now regain the title of chief executive officer and will also chair the company's board of directors. Fanning will rejoin the company as chief technology officer, Bertelsmann said.
The $8 million Bertelsmann is paying for the embattled startup will go toward paying Napster's creditors, the company said.
Once the high-flying darling of music swapping services, Napster had its wings seriously clipped when it was hit by a lawsuit from the major record labels, represented by the Recording Industry Association of America Inc. (RIAA). The renegade was then ordered to remain offline until it could ensure that no copyright protected works would be traded on its service.
Since then, Napster has struggled to pay mounting legal bills, while also trying to re-emerge as a legitimate subscription-based file-swapping service. Bertelsmann seemed the most likely cash cow, as the media conglomerate dropped out of the RIAA's suit in late 2000 to form an alliance with Napster, and has already shelled out upwards of $100 million in loans to keep the company afloat.
Last month, Bertelsmann executives told the press that it planned to buy Napster outright, but the bid fell through when the deal was shot down by some members of Napster's board.
Now that Bertelsmann has Napster, however, it may find that it has less than it originally bargained for. Over the last year, a host of potential competitors have come onto the scene, including major-label backed ventures such as MusicNet and Pressplay. And, of course, while Napster once boasted some 85 million users swapping songs on its service, the service is now silent.

|Honestly what helped me the most with getting comfortable jumping was to not think about popping, edge, etc etc but just to hit the jump. Don't try to "jump" off the jump. Just get the proper speed and ride off of it with a clear head. That way there isn't 100 things going through your head as you approach the jump. Sometimes overthinking is your worst enemy and it was mine. Just riding and going over the small park jumps with baby air just enough to clear the knuckle got me comfortable to where I was landing every time. Then start going for an Indy grab in between your bindings on your toe side with your back hand. Doing this motion naturally made me somewhat pop off the jump to bring the board up to me. Now I feel completely comfortable hitting jumps and do just as the other guys are saying squatting at the bottom then rising with the progression of the jump which pops me off the edge. My other tip is to buy an Azzpad. That is the best invention ever. Fall on your ass and you hardly feel anything and you never get cold. Because once you bruise your tailbone that fear will keep you hitting things harder which in this case is better because landing on the knuckle hard will introduce your knees to your face pretty quickly and they don't get a long lol.

The big mistake people make with speed is 'winging it' and throwing in 50 random speed checks and changing their speed the whole way. You need a plan before you drop in and you have to follow that plan. None of this 'constantly adjusting and figuring out your speed' as you go nonsense.
Since I assume you're doing a straight air, you'll want to know the basics:
1) Where do I drop in from (for a straight air this should be the point where you can ride straight towards the jump without any speed checks and land in the steepest downhill section of the landing).
2) Where do I start popping upwards with my legs (aka where is the setup point for this jump). FYI, the setup point of a jump is usually the flat area between the downward slope and the uphill slope of the launch ramp.
The key to this is it's repeatable. There are no random speed checks or braking and once you figure it out then you don't have to keep going into the jump hoping you get the right speed because you'll have an easily replicated run-in that you can do over and over again.
|Pop with both feet at the same time, and make sure your shoulders are parallel to the board! Money.
|I need to buy a set of magic balls. Got it!
|Yes there is...

i've read the whole thread and will try few of the things mention on saturday.
finally, any tip on landing beside tucking your knees and shoulders parallel to the board?
Besides that it's the usual, bend your knees as you land and try to stay square and balanced. A lot of jumping is just really just getting the takeoff and pop right because it basically determines how stable you'll be in the air, which continues to your landing. So get the pop right and you'll find the landing comes naturally as your aerial awareness kicks in.

The thing about jumps is you don't really ever go completely flat base. You go sort of 'fake' flat base.
What I mean by this is for straight airs, you want to be riding into the take-off on an almost flat base, so your board will be flat, but with a tiny bit of pressure on your toe edge. Not enough pressure that you're actually turning toeside, but just enough that you're riding flat base but with a small amount of pressure on your toe edge if that makes sense.
It's kind of like how you can ride on a cat track on a flat base but keep a tiny bit of pressure on your toe or heel edge to avoid catching an edge. Doing this almost flat base helps you stay balanced and avoid getting thrown off balance by ruts, tracks or anything else in the run-in and takeoff.
Outside of this it's just all about popping correctly for those straight airs (as we've discussed already earlier in the thread - there's a handy diagram for you to check out earlier in the thread).

Where are they?
Where are the 18-30 year olds?
We know they're not attending standard-issue church. And they're mostly not attending the alternative churches developed to "reach" them. This issue has been analyzed and analyzed some more, by people way smarter than I. That's not the purpose of this post.
The Good Shepherd leaves the 99 (who are sitting in pews, slick auditoriums, and rented elementary school gyms) to find the 1. He doesn't chase down that renegade sheep in order to tell him that resistance is futile. The passage in Scripture simply tells us that the Shepherd hunts down the sheep and rejoices when he is united with it.
Perhaps because I have 3 young adult children – or because my little day job is at a place full of young adults – or because I read young adults' blogs, listen to the music they create, and observe and learn from the way they dress and interact with the older world – – –
– – – I admire them. I admire their passion, their willingness to ask questions, their creativity and facility with technology, their honesty, and their desire for risk and authenticity. I know that a few are starting churches and home fellowships. I know there are others who've cast their lot with other alternative types of faith communities (urban monasteries, discipleship schools, service organizations) because they want to DO something, rather than be passive spectators. Most of them are not interested in our slogans, org charts and pre-chewed cud.
There is a generation of sheep wandering. When I pray for them, I hear a soft bleating in my ears.
This morning, Bill and I were chatting with a nice man our age who asked, "If Paul and Peter came back and visited our churches, what would they think? Once they got past the technology, would they be happy with what we're doing? Singing? Proclaiming? Would they even recognize the message? Why?"
With all my heart, I believe that many of the 18-30 year-old wandering sheep may have wandered because they're looking for the Shepherd. They're not finding him where we've been telling them we've been keeping him.
Agree? Disagree?

- Get your pet's teeth cleaned.
Dental issues can cause major health problems for pets just like in humans. Pawmetto Lifeline's Spay/Neuter Clinic offers affordable dental cleaning services for dogs. Call 465-9100 to schedule an appointment.
- Sponsor a rescue.
Each year 20,000 pets just like yours are surrendered to our two local municipal shelters. Unfortunately, 80% of those pets will be euthanized. By sponsoring a rescue you make it possible for us to save more lives. Donate now at http://pawmettolifeline.org/donate/.
- Work with your pet on learning something new.
The time that you spend together will be stimulating for both of you and help you to develop a closer relationship. Your pet will enjoy the satisfaction of having a new trick to show off, too!
- Make sure your pets get enough exercise.
Being overweight can cause many of the same problems in pets that it causes in humans. Helping your pet to stay in shape can help your pet live a better quality life for much longer!
- Brush your pet regularly.
Brushing your pet will keep your house cleaner because shedding will be contained. It also helps keep your pet's coat shiny and healthy.
- Make sure your pet is playing with safe toys.
If your pet swallows a toy part it can cause a painful obstruction that is very expensive to fix and can be deadly.
- Give your pet flea and heartworm medication all year.
Heartworms are a threat to all pets – not just dogs. Fleas are also a problem year round in South Carolina. It is vital for your pet's health to stay on these preventative medications. Pawmetto Lifeline offers affordable heartworm and flea preventative products through our Care-A-Van mobile vaccine service and at the Spay/Neuter Clinic.
- Plan for your pet's future.
If something happens to you, then what will happen to your pet? Do you have a plan for who will take care of your pet? Pawmetto Lifeline can work with you to set up a gift to provide for the care of your pet. Contact us at 465-9150 about planned gifts to protect your pet's welfare.

KEN AND MARLENE'S WEDDINGApril, 2007 in Miami
"Our wedding was so special. We had a very personal ceremony at family's home with our closest friends and family members. It was a beautiful spring Sunday afternoon, and the ceremony and gathering took place outdoors in the backyard where it was beautifully decorated in a tropical setting with a variety of gorgeous orchids and wild flowers, the food was catered by our good friends from Trinidad and was absolutely delicious and gave it a special caribean flavor. And to finish it off, our delicious and beautiful pineapple wedding cake was decorated with orchids and satin ribbon and gave everything a sweet and beautiful finish."

"Our wedding was exactly what we had hoped for. The girls of Themed Elegance, Jenny and Karina were such a big part of making it so special! Because I am of Cuban decent and my husband is from Antigua, we wanted a very tropical/caribean style to our wedding. Themed Elegance made our wedding cake exactly to order and then some!!! We wanted tropical yet elegant, breathtakingly beautiful yet delicious and they did exactly that. Our cake was a delicious pineapple flavor with vanilla buttercream/fondant beautifully decorated with tropical orchids and satin ribbon. Absolutely gorgeous and delicious and everyone raved about it. We have used Themed Elegance for other occassions and will continue to do so."

Kermit the Frog never spoke truer words: It is hard being green. But despite Kermit's difficulties, everyone learned to love him, making him an American icon.
There's a new type of "green" in the United States now, and being green is becoming easier. Green roofs are environmentally friendly "planted" roofs that cut back on costs, have a longer lifespan than regular roofs, and require little maintenance.
While Europeans, especially in Germany, have been constructing green roofs for several decades, it is still a fairly new development in the United States. With a population of 23,000, Villa Park, III., is only the third city in the United States to have a "green" police facility. In addition to a green roof, the $4.2 million police station is a silver-rated Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) facility. If you're looking to increase your LEED rating, adding a green roof to a new or refurbished public works building may be the answer.
Villa Park's green roof, completed in 2004, is two-tiered and covers approximately 75% of the facility. The roof has about 3 inches of growing medium that holds water and supports the plants. Because of its depth and weight of about 15 to 20 pounds per square foot, Villa Park's green roof is considered to be extensive. Intensive systems have a depth of more than 8 inches and the wet weight can reach more than 55 pounds per square foot. The lightest green roof weight possible is 8 to 9 pounds per square foot, said Tom Price, principal water resource engineer of Conservation Design Forum Inc., in Elmhurst, III.
The roof's dark color helps to reduce the urban heat island effect by reducing reflective heat. Nutrient-wise, the plants are viable for up to 30 years, outliving any traditional roof. They are drought- and weather-resistant, making them extremely durable.
Green roofs have several basic layers. Waterproofing is essential to prevent leakage. The protective root barrier prevents roots from growing into the waterproofing layer. Next is the drainage layer, which is made of a variety of materials, depending on the vendor. Villa Park's drainage layer uses a plastic drainboard filled with an aggregate drainage medium. Separation layers are a filter fabric that go between the drainage layer and the soil or growing media. Some roofs also have wind protectors to keep plants stable.
The growing medium often is made out of expanded slate or clay, resulting in lightweight, high surface area particles. That also helps increase the water holding capacity. "If you look at an individual piece, you will see a highly irregular surface compared to what you'd see in a standard piece of gravel," said Price.
The green roof can hold 20% to 25% of a rainfall. For example, if 1 inch of rain falls, the roof will hold 1/5 to ¼ inch and the rest will run off. This does not mean, however, that if ¼ inch of rain fell, all of it would be absorbed. Only 25% of the ¼ inch would be directly absorbed by the roof, said Price.
Despite the initial high cost of a green roof, the life-cycle costs are less than a traditional roof. Its longevity and role in heating and especially cooling a building cut back on costs over the years.
Several cities have won awards for their green roofs. The 12,000-square-foot roof on the Heinz 57 Center in Pittsburgh is one of them. Its green roof is visible from several offices, and decks and patios were integrated into it for meetings and gatherings.
Just as everyone grew up learning from and loving Kermit, people will now learn about and love a new type of green—green roofs.

"Catamorphisms" are functions on an initial data type (an inductively defined domain) whose inductive definitional pattern mimics that of the type. These functions have powerful calculation properties by which inductive reasoning can be replaced by equational reasoning. This paper introduces a generalisation of catamorphisms, dubbed "paramorphisms". Paramorphisms correspond to a larger class of inductive definition patterns; in fact, we show that any function defined on an initial type can be expressed as a paramorphism. In spite of this generality, it turns out that paramorphisms have calculation properties very similar to those of catamorphisms. In particular, we prove a Unique Extension Property and a Promotion Theorem for paramorphisms.

I wanted to share a couple of layouts created for several color challenges that are fun. I would love to hear your comments. They are always welcome.
'Note to Self' TCR#59
These colors aren't my norm. Pretty pastel for me, but thought I'd give a good 'ole College try. I didn't use the exact color palette, but twisted it to make it my own.
'I have a secret' CCG #193
Even though these are pastels too, I offset the pastel feel with the basic black and white. I've had this picture for sometime and have always wanted to scrap it I thought this was perfect for this color combo this week.
'Summertime Treats'
This layout was created with a bunch of Glitz 'Afternoon Muse' - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this collection. Reminds of childhood and the innocence of being a kid.

Mr. DASCHLE. Mr. President, I would like to take a few minutes to discuss the life and career of Senator John C. Stennis, who passed away earlier this week.
Senator Stennis served in this Chamber for 41 years. His work here included serving as chairman of the Senate Armed Services and the Senate Appropriations Committees and as President pro tempore of this body.
Among his legislative achievements was his ability to bend and flow with the times. Once a staunch segregationist, Senator Stennis cast his vote for the Voting Rights Act of 1982.
One area in which he never changed, however, was in upholding the safety and security of this great country. Senator Stennis warned against overextending our military capacity. He also warned against wasteful defense spending. But he never wavered in his support of the country's national defense and ensuring that it maintained the military capacity to guarantee our freedoms and our liberties.
During his four decades in the U.S. Senate, Senator Stennis was always an abiding example of integrity and fortitude. His respect for the institution of the Senate and the law of the United States made him an early opponent of the excesses and abuses of Senator Joe McCarthy. As a result, he and Senator Sam Ervin were named as the two Democratic members on the Watkins committee that investigated the recklessness of Senator McCarthy and led to his censorship.
In July 1965, the Senate created the Select Committee on Standards and Conduct, the forerunner of our current Select Committee on Ethics. This was a controversial creation, and everyone knew that whoever chaired it would be in a difficult position. The Senate had traditionally relied upon the voters of a State to discipline a Senator for improper behavior, and institutional discipline is a painful problem in an institution that depends on the collegiality of its Members. The only logical choice for this important and difficult leadership position was Senator Stennis. The Mississippi Senator became so successful and so respected in this position that the committee quickly became known as the `Stennis Committee.' Mr. President, the career of Senator John C. Stennis was marked, not only with legislative triumphs, but with numerous personal triumphs over personal adversity.
In 1973, he was shot by robbers in front of his house and left for dead.
In 1983, his beloved wife of 52 years, Coy Hines Stennis passed away.
In 1984, a battle with cancer resulted in the loss of one of his legs and confined him to a wheelchair. While in the hospital recuperating from the surgery, he was visited by the President of the United States, Ronald Reagan. President Reagan later said that he had dreaded going to the hospital that day, for he feared the impact such a life-altering operation would have on a fiercely independent man like Senator Stennis. But the President explained, `when I left, it was I who had been strengthened.' He had been strengthened by the Senator's confidence, his faith, and his optimism.
Those qualities defined Senator Stennis' outlook on life. On his Senate desk he kept a plaque that simply read: `Look Ahead.' `That's my philosophy,' he explained. Don't waste time lamenting the past. `You have got to look ahead. I realize that life's not altogether what you make it. But that's part of it, what you make it yourself.' Senator Stennis made for himself a wonderful life, and the Senate and the country can be grateful for it.
When he retired from the Senate in January 1989, Senate Majority Leader Robert Byrd called it `the end of an era.' And indeed it was.
Perhaps a greater compliment came from a Republican Member of Congress from Mississippi, who said, `We'll miss him. Even if he's a Democrat, he's a great man.' As the Senate Democratic leader, I say that is a great statement, even from a Republican.
In 1988, Congress established the John C. Stennis Center for Public Service Training at Mississippi State University. The center covers a range of historical projects, including an excellent oral history program. When a congressional historian approached him about an oral history of his own life and career, Senator Stennis initially opposed the idea, saying it would be too self-aggrandizing. The historian proceeded to explain that it was not only an honor, it was his duty to record for posterity his personal account of the historic events and decisions in which he had been involved.
`Well, sir,' responded Senator Stennis, `If you say its my duty, then I must do it, because I've always done my duty.' Indeed he did.
It was not only his legislative accomplishments--and they were many--for which we so loved and remember him, it was also his commitment to God and country.
No person who has ever served in the U.S. Senate was ever quicker to tell you what was wrong with this country. But no person was ever quicker to tell you what was right about it, either.
Mr. President, Linda and I extend our most heartfelt condolences to the family of John C. Stennis: we share their grief and their loss. But we also thank them for sharing him with us, and I thank the people of Mississippi for selecting him to serve in the Senate for seven terms.
Mr. President, I yield the floor.

Paddy Power White Horse Stunt
If there's one thing Paddy Power want people talking about in the run-up to the Cheltenham Festival...it's Paddy Power.
Therefore it's no surprise to see them courting controversy once more, this time by giving the famous hill carving of a white horse in Uffington, Oxfordshire a covert makeover.
More than 200 metres of lightweight canvas was pinned to the ground to add a 'jockey' to the ancient monument and Paddy Power insist that they took great care at the site (no doubt mindful that they could be liable for prosecution if the landmark had been damaged).
Spokesman Paddy Power said a team of 20 people used night vision goggles for more than six hours to set it up:
"We didn't ask permission because we knew the answer would be no. But no harm has been done, it is down now. If anything we have actually highlighted the beautiful horse."
You can watch the installation work being completed on the video below.
The Uffington White horse is a 110 metre long carving filled with white chalk dating back to the Bronze Age (sometime between 1400 and 600 BC) and the site is owned and managed by the National Trust.
In August 2002 the figure was 'defaced' with the addition of a rider and 3 dogs by members of the "Real Countryside Alliance" in an attempt to promote their pro-hunting agenda.
Paddy Power have a reputation for pushing boundaries for marketing purposes, including erecting a 50 foot tall promotional sign on the hillside overlooking Cheltenham racecourse during the 2010 Cheltenham Festival - to the annoyance of the racecourse and other bookies who secured all the Festival race sponsorship, but comparatively little publicity.
The Irish bookmaker are offering to refund all losing bets on the Arkle Chase at next week's Cheltenham Festival if hot favourite Sprinter Sacre wins.

Mizell Minute 2-6-12
Oh, Brother! In "The House that Peyton Built"— ELI--the "Junior Manning" was the epitome of "fourth-quarter heroism."
In a Giants season "built on coming back from The Dead"— Eli Manning quarterbacked a victorious 4th-quarter rally for the SEVENTH time, but NEVER anything as BIG
as this--overcoming Tom Brady…Bill Belichick and the Patriots in "Super Bowl 46."
Eli's "Final Exam" began at the New York 12—3:47 on the clock—Manning completed "the pass of his life," squeezing in a 38-yarder up the left sideline—where Mario
Manningham made a "catch for the Super Bowl ages, tippy-toeing BOTH feet—staying in bounds—beating "snug coverage" by TWO Patriots, coddling the football as
though it were a "baby thrown from a burning building."
Manning to Manningham—you'll see a MILLION replays.
The Giants drove 88 yards to a touchdown—keeping Tom B. and Bill B. from winning a FOURTH Super Bowl.
Before the opening kickoff—I had "tears"—watching Giants coach Tom Coughlin—famed for "grimacing… and agony"—as he MOUTHED words to "America" AND
the "National Anthem"… I really…really feel good--for "that man"—and ALL Mannings.

Ooh,hang on. That is the throb of a turbocharged flat four engine. A sound which,all over the world,heralds the imminent arrival of a moron - JC.
well I'm watching qualifying now and its not live but it is on. I am going to try and stay awake but if it appears Vettel is going to walk away with it after the midway point i might go to sleep and watch the rest in the morning.
looks like Hamilton qualified 3rd but took a 5 spot penalty for a gearbox change, he just cant catch a break, he might have had a chance of getting back in the chase if he could have started 3rd and the red bulls had issues he would be right back in it.
I'm watching it right now. I was planning to stay up and watch the race too but I'm thinking I'll just dvr it and watch it in the morning then I can speed through the asinine commercials that speed chooses for F1 races.
Good thing Hamilton got the 5 spot penalty gives Alonso a bit more of a chance in points, but then again I haven't seen the end of quali yet.
Oh crap Massa got eliminated in Q2.
They need to replace Massa I think he has jumped the shark. He was never really a top driver though he had a brief time where he came close but I don't think he's been quite as good since.
The real story is not the red bulls, but that bobby kubica starts 3rd in front of Alonso. The Renault engines are how much less powerful than the mercedes? I think its funny they ever complained about the Merc as their engine is obviously full of torque.

Far, far away in some land across the ocean resides a leader who cares about his dignity and right to express whatever comes into his mind. He lords  it over a land in which people are allowed not to eat for long stretches of the year and he so enjoys informing the world as to what he will do to anyone daring to challenge his right to boast and pontificate to one and all nations. The North Korean government is upset at UN sanctions, it is upset there are American soldiers in South Korea, it is upset most nations of the world do not listen carefully to their threats of violence and war. It informed the world:
1. There will be "all out action against the United States."
2. The United States is its "sworn enemy" who must be crushed.
Rhetoric is among the chief exports from North Korea. It seeks to  develop a missile that can reach the US carrying an atomic bomb. It could occur. Perhaps, it is time for China to  impose restraint upon its neighbor and ensure that rhetoric does not become reality because China is the nation that eventually will suffer if North Korea gets into a war.

Hands up if you love Crispy Roast Pork! :)
I absolutely LOVE Crispy Roast Pork, cannot get enough of crackling. So tonight I've decided to treat ourselves to some deliciously crispy skinned roast pork with the meat still absolutely tender. It was divine, and I served it with a simple vegetarian Asian Fried Rice stuffed in an open grilled capsicum.
500g Roast Pork Leg / Belly, skin on, meat only approx. 1 inch thick
1 green capsicum, cut in half, seeds removed
1 cup of rice, cooked
1 cup of sweet corn kernels
1 carrot, diced
2 large cup mushrooms, sliced thinly and halved
Light soy sauce
Salt and pepper
Extra virgin olive oil
Chopped spring onions for garnish
Fried onions for garnish
Fresh coriander leaves for garnish
Generously season pork with salt and pepper. Rub with olive oil and place it on an ovenproof dish, skin facing upwards, cook in a preheated oven at 200C for approx. 35 mins.
Meanwhile, heat some olive oil in a hot wok. Stirfry carrots, corn and mushrooms for a few minutes. Add cooked rice and season with light soy sauce and pepper.
Stuff cooked fried rice into half capsicum and grill in the oven for approx. 7-8 mins on high.
Serve grilled capsicum with stuffed fried rice with crispy roast pork. Garnish with spring onions, fried onions and fresh coriander leaves. Serve hot.

Brahma/Deva Saddle route to Clear Creek
Hiking with Jed Dryer
It seems like every time I am leaving the Backcountry Office with a permit in hand, I feel like running. I don't know why- It is usually several days till the trip. Ah well, might as well let the budding excitement loose.
This time the permit was for a 4 day trip out into the Ottoman Amphitheater. For those unfamiliar with the canyon, this is the end of the Clear Creek Trail, an access point for Cheyava Falls.
Day 1
I got off work at 1:15 PM and was on the South Kaibab trail by 2:09 PM. The usual "How's it going?" question ensued for each of the hundred hikers that I passed on the trail. Maybe I'm a miser, but my greeting quickly deteriorates to a series of grunts for each hiker I pass. After 1 hour and 40 minutes I am crossing the Black Bridge. Ten minutes later and I am at Phantom Ranch freshening up outside the canteen. I decide to call up to the rim and brag. 2 Hours has gone by.
As I was throwing my pack on to continue on to Cottonwood Campground where I was scheduled for the night, I spotted a rancher friend (Reuben). Come to find out, there is a party tonight. Art Expo 2010. Free food is promised, so I headed down to the rancher house. Met up with another friend, David (Phantom Ranch Manager) and I spent a couple hours hanging out and eating food and generally feeling like a dork. Will say the art stuff was pretty neat, they had a photo journey of Phantom to Nankoweap, a Tecate House, and numerous other items – Definitely worth a trip by itself. Finally the time came to leave, since I had another 7 miles till I could camp that night.
It was now dark outside, but I had my new headlamp. First thing I noticed on the North Kaibab was the glowing amber eyes of a Ringtailed Cat. He didn't appreciate the camera flashes and disappeared before I could get a good picture. Just beyond Asinine Hill I came across a hiker who had rolled his ankle on a Rim to Rim to Rim hike. He was still mobile, but I gave him some ibuprofen to ease the pain a little bit.
The unfortunate part about hiking the North Kaibab at night is that you can't see the beautiful creek running alongside the trail. You can hear it though- a continuous dull roar that reminds you that it is a strong flowing stream.
After what seemed like forever, Cottonwood Camp finally came into my beam of light.
Day 2
I woke early and was on the trail by the time the first light was on the buttes and rim around me. I dropped the pack at the bridge to Ribbon Falls, and walked over to it. After getting lots of pictures of the waterfalls, I filled up my water reservoirs and headed for the redwall break enroute to Brahma/Deva Saddle.
I headed straight up through the Tapeats and cut across the Bright Angel Shale till I got to the limestone. I kept to the base of the Muav Limestone for a little while, but then began to cut up through the Muav to the Redwall base. I reached the base of the Redwall at the break. I quickly discovered that the easiest travel was in the middle of the break up the dry creek. There were lots of cairns marking this portion of the route, and it was a quick and straight-forward route to the top of the redwall.
At the top of the redwall, there was a slide to the left (east) that would likely get you all the way up to the correct Supai layer with ease, but I chose to go straight up the center of the fault to the first saddle.
There was a little tricky spot that involved a 20 – 30 foot climb and towing the pack up behind me with the webbing. It was a good adrenaline boost.
The view from the 1st saddle (not the Brahma/Deva) was incredible, looking back towards the Manu Temple and south towards Hattan Butte and the Brahma Temple. Just to the SSE the true Brahma/Deva Saddle loomed ahead. A short contour to the Brahma side and then up a short slide and I was on top of it. This was also an incredible view, and from this point I believe that it is about 45 minutes fast walking to summit on Deva. I chose to continue on my planned route because I didn't want to get stuck above the Redwall after dark.
The route travels through the furthest of the three fingers of the Redwall break. It involves a series of obstacles including one that requires being "reborn". There is a small hole under a boulder that you slide through in order to get down a pouroff. I went around this boulder using it and the cliff face as a chimney, but it would be much easier to go under it.
Finally I made it all the way through the Redwall and was making time towards Clear Creek. The views from the Ottoman Amphitheater are incredible. Angels Gate, Wotan's Throne, Deva Temple, Brahma Temple, and The Howlands Butte are the significant summits all around. Also very neat is Clear Creek. A deep Tapeats rimmed gorge that commands the attention of its guests. Zoroaster Temple is just beyond Brahma, but was out of my sight because of the sun glare and position.
Unfortunately, traveling the creek-bed all the way to Clear Creek is not possible. At the rim of the Tapeats, a huge pouroff forces a route change. From here go right till you meet up with Clear Creek Trail. There is a break about ¾ of the way to the trail which allows access to the trail, but it is easiest to stay high till you meet up with the trail.
I went down to the bed of Clear Creek and filled up my water. There was a group of hikers that I chatted with for a few minutes. It was nearing sunset by now, so I dug the headlamp out.
I wanted to get out to the Tonto Plateau above the river around Demaray Point and camp there so that I could catch a sunrise from there. Tonto dusks/dawns are the best I know, and I always attempt to camp at Tonto level. I got into camp about 7:30 PM, I had found a spot about a half mile from the trail. It did not overlook the river, but it had an excellent view all around.
Day 3
I woke before Sunrise and had the camera ready. There were not many clouds, so it didn't promise to be that interesting. I got a little bit of color, but the majesty of the outlying terrain more than made up for it.
Looking back towards the Isis Temple (my favorite summit) I noticed some low clouds getting colored and the trademark purple haze that occurs on the horizon. It made for an awesome view. Unfortunately, the camera cannot always capture what the eyes see.
I finished packing, and headed for Phantom Ranch and Bright Angel Campground where my last night was scheduled. After about 30 minutes, I ran into a group of women who turned out to be rather avid canyon hikers. One had done the Brahma/Deva route before, and they were coming from Upper Phantom.
There were some puddles in the various drainages below Zoroaster, and I was soon back in the comfort of the Phantom Ranch Canteen. I got a Lemonade (I maintain that the best lemonade in the world is at the bottom of the Grand Canyon), and a candy bar.
Finally in Bright Angel Campground, I put my pack on the pole and headed out to the river to relax. I got bored pretty quick, and headed back to the pack. As soon as I got back, I decided to finish the hike to the rim.
Bright Angel trail was the route, and I took the entire Old Devil's Corkscrew up. I was getting pretty tired by the time I reached the rim, and was having to stop and rest for a few seconds.
It was an excellent trip to say the least. Not nearly as remote as one would have hoped, and the Brahma/Deva route showed evidence of lots of travel in portions, but when it comes to the Canyon it's always worth it.

At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.

As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

Move it on over
Wednesday February 15 2012- In an effort to add more offense, three separate MLB teams are converting existing firstbaseman to third base at the big league level. Not unprecedented, but risky nonetheless as the list of successful converts is short and made mostly of former SS like Alex Rodriguez or Cal Ripken, Jr..
The Detroit Tigers signed 1b Prince Fielder and have decided that Miguel Cabrera can move to third. Not so fast. Cabrera was not good at third when he weighed 225 and I don't see how adding 50lbs of belly fat could help that.
The LA Angels signed 1b Albert Pujols and will now move Mark Trumbo to third base. Trumbo has played only 1b and RF in the big leagues and is attempting to rehabilitate a stress fracture in his foot while preparing for his move. Either one on its own makes for a difficult spring training, but both together could make for some tough going.
The Miami Marlins signed FA SS Jose Reyes and to make room will move Hanley Ramirez to 3b. This transition should be the physically easiest of the three, but will by no means be easy. Thirty feet closer is the difference between reflex and reaction. Ripken estimated it took him 100 games to feel comfortable, but Rodriguez sets his number at 350 and still counting. That is when you buy in and give your full and absolute effort at success. Say what you will about A-rod, he deserves it, but he is a worker. Say what you will about Hanley, and you'll probably be right unless you say worker, giving, good attitude, team leader, etc.
From the "Its not my fault" File: Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay claims that he wants to keep QB Peyton Manning, "If the contract can get done." This is a miserable and transparent attempt to shift any possible blame from himself. You want him back? Then step up and bring him back, Jack.
From the "What now?" File: ESPN has decided to remove Ron Jaworski from the Monday Night Football booth. This decision must harken back to the days when ESPN had "Sunday Night Football" before getting the Monday game and decided to break up the outstanding team of Mike Patrick, Joe Theisman, and Paul Maguire, a team that obviously was better collectively than individually. This move leaves a 2-man booth of Mike Tirico and Jon Gruden. This broadcast is ESPN's crown jewel and they will not leave it in the buttery fingers of Mike "Golf Voice" Tirico, and Gruden needs a 3-man booth for almost clever banter. Gruden is likable in this role but Jaworski was the class of this team. Undoubtedly this will prove to be part of ESPN's "as soon they file retirement papers get them on air" policy as it pertains to athletes and a recently reitred former player will step in here. If I had a vote it would be for Trent Greene. Dude is flat impressive as an analyst.

All our family and friends live locally so we rarely have overnight visitors. However we do have one interstate family member that we welcome with open arms each year. As we don't have a spare bedroom I set up one of the girls rooms for her. The girls enjoy bunking together for a few days, great bonding time. I prepare the room by taking out the doll's house, removing a few teddies from on top of the chest of drawers, tidy the bedside table and change the linens on the bed from a pretty fairies doona and butterfly sheets to plain coloured sheets and a floral quilt. I like to add a few nibbles in case they are hungry and don't feel comfortable asking for food.
To make our guest comfortable I like to leave a little basket of goodies on the bedside table.
Clear the bedside table
Create a guest basket, I decorated the basket with some Christmas ribbon and a tag, in the spirit of Christmas of course
I included a few goodies, cherry ripe, jelly beans, sunscreen as we have had some hot weather and don't want her to get sunburnt
I have temporarily repurposed a basket from my daughters top drawer of her bedside table, it helps her organise all her precious items and favourite books. They are very sturdy and hold their shape really well. As you know I like to be organised and having a little basket in the top drawer makes it easier to keep tidy and find things faster when needed.
The Pippa 3pc Nursery Basket Set is from Mor-Stor's stylish range of baskets, tubs and cubes (cubes are perfect for the expedit like the cubes I use in my walk in robe and I also use the hyacinth baskets to hide our ironing). They are the perfect size to organise the nappy area, with the large basket for storing nappies and the smaller for nappy creams, powders, moisturiser, singlets etc. Really baskets can be used for anything, give as a baby shower gift filled with goodies, store matchbox cars, arts and crafts, hair ties and headbands, stationery, action figures, small bits and pieces from board games and so much more. I love the great range of colours, blue, green, hot pink, red and white, something to suit all bedroom colours.

Eleanor Roosevelt was very upset that she was informed so late, but with the help of the Mansion staff (about thirty people during the Roosevelt Administration) and especially the three major staff members she was able solve the problems satisfactorily.
Those were the Butler Alonzo Fields,
the housekeeper Henrietta Nesbitt
and Chief Usher Howell Crim, who had the most important job, as he had to oversee the reception and housing of heads of state or government, diplomats, and other guests of the White House.
BTW: Roosevelt liked the idea with the map room. In January 1942 already, FDR converted a White House basement cloakroom into a top secret communications center and map room.
In this undated photo, military personnel are shown in the White House Map Room.
