From there is syncs/streams photos to a pair of ATVs, pair of iPhones, and an iPad. I've started exporting small libraries to edit pictures on an older Macbook in my office. I recently picked up a camera connection kit (non-Apple) for my iPad and intend to use it to load pictures from my DSLR and videos from my iPhone (primarily while traveling). Pictures can be automatically imported to Aperture via Photostream, it looks like I have manually connect to get videos in. Is Photostream reliable enough to use for this purpose? Will imported pictures automatically be removed when I sync the iPad on wifi?

Any update on cores?

Any update on cores?
^ same question. I have to be like next on the list by now, I'd imagine.
I sent Channing's this week. I had the next three, Keith Jon and Sam, almost done and the parts I received from my die shop were .002" too large in ID and couldn't be used (unless you like your shifter coming apart while you are driving). I am waiting for them to make some more and they should be done by the end of next week. Sorry for the delay.
Just received mine in the mail yesterday!!! I will install in it in the next day or two...
Well I found time this afternoon to install the shifter... Well 45-50 minutes later I'm shifting gears. This is the best money I have ever spent... Thanks man... I will drop the core in the mail Monday or Tuesday
Hey Brian,
Well I just had my bday so I'm going to reward myself with your handiwork... couple questions. I saw the guy above sent you $330 rather than $300... do you offer the shifter bushing for an additional $30 still or? I'm not removing the tranny but if you or Luke do have a bushing easily replaced during this install let me know if you can.
I'll paypal you the money (personal payment owed /no fees) and get on the list once I figure that out. Thank you!!!
I no longer carry the UUC polyurethane bushings. Luke at Lindsay Cadillac does, though.
Thanks Brian, that's what I thought based on the intro post info. Paypal transaction is done!. Thanks.
Sorry I took so long. Core should be in the mail tomorrow
Now that's an old name resurrected!
Waiting on cores from:
1. William
2. Michael
3. Tim
4. Eric
5. Jocelyn
6. Adam
7. Clayton
8. Channing
9. Keith (shipping today)
10. Jonathan (shipping today)
Wait list:
1. Sam
2. Nick
3. Seth
4. Steven
5. Rick
6. Matthew
You should have mine in the next few days. I sent it out the on July 3
You should start charging late fees on cores lol... Question, when I get the car ripped apart for head machining and cam and stuff it will be down until the heads come back. If a core is sent first, will I still get sent to the bottom of the list? Or will it get modified and sent back? I'm being lazy, didn't want to read through 60 pages to find an answer.

Throw in the hiring of two-time national championship coach Clint Myers from Arizona State for the softball program (eight times counting juco national titles) and you have an impressive daily double for Auburn athletic director Jay Jacobs on Friday.
This season at Oklahoma, Golloway led the Sooners to a 43-21 overall record , a Big 12 Tournament title, an NCAA Regional title and a Super Regional appearance. Overall he made seven regional berths in eight seasons in Norman and four NCAA Super Regionals in addition to a College World Series berth in 2010.
For Jacobs the fact that he accomplished those feats as a school such as Oklahoma wasn't a factor in the decision to bring him to the Plains. However, there is little question it makes things even better for the future of the program when you bring someone on board with the experience and success Golloway has had in his career.
"The goal wasn't what league they came from," Jacobs said. "The goal was to hire people that gave our student-athletes (an opportunity to win championships). As you saw last week our APR was better than it has ever been. We think those student-athletes should also have, as Gary Waters (Auburn Athletic Academic Advisor) says, a diploma on their hand and a ring on their finger.
"We went after the top people we think give our current student-athletes the chance to win championships," he added. "So we went after the best. Because of some of the things that Coach Golloway said and Coach Myers said, because of the attractiveness of Auburn University and the people in the community and our values and what it means to raise your children here, it made this place very attractive to a lot of people. It wasn't about BCS or anything like that, it was really about the quality of the person and winning championships and having a proven record."
Augie Garrido is perhaps the most accomplished coach any school hired away from another one as the three-time College World Series winner at Cal-State Fullerton moved to Texas in 1997. He has since added two titles with the Longhorns.
Andy Lopez won a national championship at Pepperdine in 1992 and was hired by the Florida Gators in 1995. He led Florida to a pair of College World Series appearances and five NCAA Tournament trips in seven seasons before being let go. He resurfaced at Arizona and where he won the 2012 national title.
In the SEC perhaps the biggest name hire in the last decade is John Cohen moving from Kentucky to Mississippi State where he played his college baseball. His record with the Wildcats wasn't anywhere close to matching that of Golloway, however.
In five seasons at Kentucky, Cohen made a pair of regional appearances but turned the Kentucky program into a winner. Is his fifth season at Mississippi State, Cohen has the Bulldogs in the College World Series and has made three consecutive regional appearances.
Tennessee made one of the biggest hires in the SEC when the Vols plucked Dave Serrano from Cal-State Fullerton following the 2011 season. In his seven seasons as a head coach at Fullerton and UC-Irvine he had six NCAA Tournament appearances and a pair of College World Series berths.
Maybe the other biggest hire in the SEC was Arkansas hiring Dave van Horn from Nebraska to come back to his alma mater. At Nebraska he made four NCAA Tournament appearances and a pair of College World Series' before making the move back to the Razorbacks. Since getting back to Arkansas he has made 11 consecutive postseason berths with three trips to Omaha.
Does that guarantee that Golloway will turn Auburn into a college baseball powerhouse overnight? No it doesn't, but there is no doubt that Jacobs has given the Tigers every chance to be successful in the future.
For Golloway the future is now. Saying he wants to win early and often, the goal is a championship at the end of the season. Fortunate enough to witness many celebrations in his career, Golloway said he's excited to see what the future holds at Auburn and he hopes it ends with plenty of hugs to go around.
"You hug your players when you win a championship," Golloway said. "You shake their hand when they commit to your institution. You coach them up and pat them on the back an awful lot, but when you really huge and embrace your student-athletes is usually right after they are getting up off of that dogpile and you're asking them if they are okay.
"We've got to hug our student-athletes an awful lot in the past and there is no feeling better than that. You are sweaty. You are smelly. You are dirty, but you are hugging each other like crazy. We want to be able to hug our players an awful lot."

I.B. ready to sue
Decision tonight?
Marty Graham 7:22 p.m., June 21
(Page 2 of 2)
Unlike college dorms, our building offers community without the mess and stress of communal living. Walking the halls from one friend's "room" to the next, I told David, "I love this place. It feels like one great big house. It's like our condo is a giant self-contained room that we can escape to when we feel like it." I now see the appeal of dormitories -- I don't even have to put on my shoes to visit my new friends. This is my chance to experience the college life I never had! I think I'll throw a party to celebrate this next generation of dorm living. I wonder if wine comes in kegs...

Twenty Years of Worms
You may not know it, but just yesterday, we celebrated a very sad milestone in the world of computing. On November 2, 1988, the first Internet based worm was released to the public. The worm wasn't really intended to do any damage, as it was just there to try and find out how many computers were using the Internet. If only they were all that harmless!
As you all know, worms have become a daily threat for many computer technicians and home users. For 20 years, they have been bothering us and they probably will for many more to come. Everyone should use this holiday to stop and check for worms and other viruses that may be looming around on your computer. I know I'm going to. Until next time, stay safe out there, my friends!
~ Gary

Despite mustering just two runs in Thursday's doubleheader at Mansfield, it was enough for the IUP softball team to earn a split of a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference Central Division twinbill.
Stef McCoy delivered a two-run double with two outs in the sixth inning to lift IUP to a 2-1 win in the second game after the Crimson Hawks dropped the opener, 3-0.
IUP took advantage of a pair of Mansfield errors to extend the Crimson Hawks' sixth inning.
After Kaylee Prendergast reached on an error, Ashley Strack came up with a single, and another error by a Mansfield outfielder allowed Prendergast to reach third.
That's when McCoy came up with her two-run double, one of only three hits in the game for IUP.
Mansfield threatened in the seventh, getting back-to-back singles with one out before IUP's Tara Senn induced a pair of flyouts to seal the win.
Senn (3-2) went seven innings, giving up one run on six hits and one walk. She struck out two.
McCoy finished 1-for-2, Strack was 1-for-3 and Rachel Francis recorded IUP's other hit.
Mansfield's Kate Pratt was the hard-luck loser, allowing three hits and a pair of unearned runs. She struck out 10 IUP hitters.
Mansfield got on the board early in the opener, plating three first-inning runs, including one on a balk and another on a wild pitch.
It was more than enough support for Mansfield starter Caitlin Klobosits (8-3), who held IUP to five hits while striking out eight Crimson Hawks.
The Crimson Hawks threatened in the sixth inning, getting back-to-back singles from McCoy and Jasa Mitchell with no outs. Two batters later, Strack drew a walk to load the bases, but Klobosits ended the threat with a flyout.
Prendergast finished 2-for-3 with two of IUP's five hits, including a double.
IUP starter Alexa Campbell went six innings, giving up five hits and three earned runs.
Since returning from its spring break trip and beginning PSAC Central play, IUP has scored two runs in losing three of its past four games. McCoy's two-run double in the second game snapped a 26-inning scoreless streak for the Crimson Hawks.
IUP (11-8, 1-3 PSAC Central) is scheduled to welcome Edinboro on Saturday for its home opener.
TENNIS: IUP ran its winning streak to eight matches and notched its second straight shutout by blanking visiting Charleston (W.Va.), 9-0, in a non-conference women's tennis match at the Maple Street Courts.
Katie Eaton (6-1, 6-2), Tanya Timko (6-3, 6-3), Abby McCormick (6-2, 6-0), Emilia Osborne (6-2, 6-2), Erika Schnaas (6-2, 6-0) and Ranvita Mahto (6-1, 6-3) each won singles matches in straight sets for IUP.
Timko, the reigning PSAC West Athlete of the Week, and Mahto each extended their personal winning streaks to eight straight singles matches.
The Crimson Hawks' three doubles teams also prevailed, with all winning by scores of 8-2.
IUP (11-6) plays host to Slippery Rock on Monday.

Alterman: Post "ousted" Weigel for "bias" but Broder "has clearly showed bias and retains his job"
Blog ››› ››› KARL FRISCH
Media Matters' Jamison Foser has looked at Washington Post's David Broder extensively, concluding in a February column about the "myth" of the Post's "liberal" op-ed pages:
Let's start with David Broder -- he is, after all, the much-lauded "dean" of the Washington press corps, and frequently described as a liberal. In the context of the Post's roster of opinion writers, he may be one. But from his 1969 complaint that nasty anti-war activists were out to "break" an unfairly maligned president Nixon to his 2006 description of anti-war activists as "elitists" and his Cheney-esque 2007 slur that Democrats have little "sympathy for" the military, David Broder has made clear that he is no liberal.
I've previously laid out at some length the case against David Broder's sterling reputation. This is a man who thought that President Clinton should have resigned because he "may have" lied about an affair, but who didn't think President Bush should have done so after he lied his way into a war. Not even when he declared Bush "lawless and reckless" did he think resignation was in order. And, having piously insisted that he and his beltway buddies don't like being lied to when Bill Clinton wasn't telling the truth about his relationship with Monica Lewinsky, Broder lavishes praise upon Sarah Palin, a politician who only lies when she speaks. And when she writes.
In his 2006 column declaring Bush "lawless and reckless," Broder seemed more upset with the "vituperative, foul-mouthed bloggers on the left" and gratuitously slammed Al Gore and John Kerry for a "know-it-all arrogance rankled Midwesterners such as myself" (no surprise, really: During the 2000 campaign, Broder bashed Gore for the sin of offering too many details about "what he wants to do as president.")
In 2005, Broder blamed congressional Democrats -- who were in the minority -- for a failure to conduct oversight hearings; in 2007, when Democrats were in charge, he bashed them for doing so. He's against investigating torture, and he was against investigating the outing of a CIA agent. But he's in favor of investigating the Clintons' marriage (not the marriages of Republicans, though!).
Anyway: there's much more here, including the fact that David Broder praised President Bush's response to Katrina. What more do you need to know?
Now, Eric Alterman -- a senior fellow at Center for American Progress and a Distinguished Professor of English at Brooklyn College -- writes that the Post "ousted" David Weigel for displaying "bias" in his emails to a private, off-the-record listerserve but they continue to let Broder work despite the fact that he "has clearly showed bias and retains his job."
Alterman writes:
In [Howard] Kurtz's haste to defend his employer he misses more than a few points of note, though his views are consistent with those expressed by his boss David Branculi, Weigel's editor Raju Narisetti, and the paper's ombudsman, Andrew Alexander, all of whom worried about the reaction of readers to the revelation that a) reporters have private opinions and b) conservatives complain when they don't get what they want.
Here are some comments from the Post brass:
"Dave did excellent work for us," the executive editor of The Post, Marcus Brauchli, told Kurtz, the paper's media columnist. But then he added, "We can't have any tolerance for the perception that people are conflicted or bring a bias to their work."
Later on Branchuli added that The Post needed to be "completely transparent about what people do ... and completely transparent about where people stand." And those in "traditional reporting positions," he said, should remain "nonpartisan, unbiased and free from slant in their presentation in the paper and in any other public forum. There should be no appearance of conflict."
Alterman then sets his well-researched sites on Broder:
Take for instance the career of David Broder, who is, together with Ben Bradlee and Bob Woodward, undoubtedly among the most admired figures in the entire history of The Washington Post. For most of his career Broder has been both reporting inside the paper (and on its front page) and expressing his strong opinion on its editorial pages, on television, on radio, and undoubtedly on social occasions to his friends. He was paid both by the paper as a reporter and by the Washington Post Writers Group, which syndicated his column.
Apparently, all Broder's different "hats" never raised any "confusion" on the part of the readers in the minds of Post editors because his opinions were almost perfectly consistent with the Washington establishment's views.
Since I have spent the past 20 years or so studying and writing about Washington pundits' views, I have extensive files on these views. Here are a few on Broder:
- On Robert Kennedy and Eugene McCarthy: Broder had little patience for antiwar Democrats who challenged Lyndon Johnson in 1967. The antiwar activities of the likes of Robert Kennedy and Gene McCarthy, he believed, were "degrading … to those involved."
- On Ronald Reagan: When the president decided to bomb Libya in 1986 to try to kill Muamar Khaddafi, Broder assured readers that "Reagan has been insistent that every possible step be taken to spare the innocent."
- Broder repeatedly lauded Reagan on his "presidential" qualities and "national leadership of a high order," and was impressed by "the grace with which he functions as chief of state in moments of national tragedy and triumph."
- Reagan's opponents, however, tended to receive the back of Broder's hand, like the "quick-lipped liberals" who "pop off in opposition" to the Supreme Court nomination of right-wing extremist Robert Bork.
- Here's one of my favorites: Broder published an excerpt from this new book, Beyond the Front Page, on page one of the Washington Post Outlook section of March 22, 1987, in which he explained:
The White House propaganda machine has ... enhanced the power of the communicator-in-chief. And it has raised to even greater importance the unmet challenge for the press to provide an alternative, non-propagandistic view of the presidency. This is a challenge we in the Washington press corps—and our editors and bosses—cannot afford to ignore.
Yet on the last page of the same section Broder apparently found himself helpless before the very same phenomenon. During Reagan's speech earlier that week the president continued to adhere to his preposterous notion that he had not intended to trade arms for hostages or encourage his administration to contravene any laws on behalf of the contras. Broder spins himself silly on this lying:
The White House has repaired the damage from the Iran affair explosion and reopened for business. President Reagan's news conference on Thursday night provided the strongest evidence yet that the proprietor of the shop has regained a good measure of his emotional balance and is ready to reclaim his role at the center of government. The president did not change his story—or add much to it. But he showed the steadfastness and confidence that had been so conspicuously missing in the final months of 1986. Now Reagan can begin refocusing the nation's attention on his policy agenda without being accused of trying to avoid That Painful Subject.
Note that in the above example, Broder did not actually claim that Reagan offered any coherent explanation for the Iran-contra or for his own role in it. And he didn't explain what had changed inside the White House to prevent such occurrences from taking place in the future. Instead he merely embraced the narrative put forth by the propaganda machine to enhance the power of the communicator-in-chief.
Alterman then goes on to note more contemporary examples of the Post's Broder problem concluding with the following query:
But I ask you, dear reader, how is a Post reader to avoid the confusion of trying to figure out how to understand these (and so many other of Broder's angry and deeply biased comments) when he "wear[s] more than one hat" and "opine[s] in one forum and appear[s] to report in another forum?"
Inquiring minds want to know.

EPA nearing tougher restrictions on power plant emissions
The Environmental Protection Agency expects Friday to finalize a rule requiring coal- and oil-fired power plants to cut emissions of 84 toxic chemicals, including mercury and other pollutants.
Sponsored Links
The rule comes 21 years after Congress amended the Clean Air Act to require the cleanup. The EPA estimates the changes will keep up to 17,000 people from dying prematurely each year and prevent 11,000 non-fatal heart attacks. It also estimates that for every $1 spent to clean up the plants, $3 to $5 will be saved in health costs.
"We think they will be historic clean air and public health achievements," says John Walke, with the Natural Resources Defense Council, an environmental group.
The rule, which the agency is under court order to sign by Friday, is based on pollution levels emitted by the cleanest 12% of coal and oil-fired plants in the nation. Because of that, the provision is sometimes called the Utility Maximum Achievable Control Technology or MACT rule.
The standards are expected to be close to those proposed in March. The EPA believes they will affect about 1,200 coal-fired units and 150 oil-fired units at about 525 power plants.
Coal-fired power plants generate about 43% of U.S. electricity, says John Coequyt of the Sierra Club. Oil-fired units are no longer much of an issue, he says. "Oil's too expensive to burn for electricity," he says.
While many plants use scrubbers and other technologies to reduce the pollutants they produce, some still belch dangerous particles, acid gases such as sulfur dioxide and hydrogen chloride, heavy metals and other toxic air pollutants known or suspected to cause cancer and other serious health effects, the EPA says.
By definition, at least 12% of current plants will meet or exceed the new standards. An unknown number have most of the equipment they need to meet the standards already installed, Coequyt says. "It's the ones in the middle" that the rule will affect, he says. Some will install the necessary equipment and some will shut down because they're old and it's not cost effective to bring them into compliance.
Power plants are responsible for 50% of the nation's acid gas emissions and 25% of toxic metal emissions. Coal-fired power plants are responsible for 99% of U.S.-produced mercury emissions, EPA says. Some coal naturally contains small amounts of mercury. When it's burned, some of the mercury escapes in the smoke.
When these mercury particles reach water, microorganisms consume them, transforming the particles to a highly toxic form of mercury called methylmercury , that can contaminate fish. This contaminated seafood is one of the primary ways humans are exposed to mercury. Pregnant women, unborn babies and young children are especially at risk from mercury, which can damage the developing nervous system.
The pending rules have become the focus of a contentious public relations fight, including print, TV and subway ads running in the Washington, D.C., area as well as some nationally, aimed at reaching stake holders to try to sway the outcome.
American Lung Association ads feature the sounds of a coughing baby coming from a carriage.
The American Coalition for Clean Coal Electricity ran ads in national and D.C. papers calling the regulations "expensive and job destroying." On its website, the group says the rule "would destroy jobs, raise energy prices and could threaten the reliability of our electricity." Calls to the organization for comment were not returned either Thursday or Friday.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce has run ads titled "Don't let the EPA turn out the lights on the American Economy," saying that "America needs more time to get the job done right, not more lost jobs." The group did not return calls Thursday or Friday.
Janice Nolen of the American Lung Association counters that U.S. communities have been bearing the burden of health costs caused by this pollution for too long. "It's time that the shared cost be placed where it belongs, on the sources that need to clean up."
Not all electric companies are opposed to the new rule. According to a report issued in November, "companies representing half of the nation's coal-fired generating capacity — 11 out of the top 15 largest coal fleet owners in the U.S. — have indicated that they are well positioned to comply with EPA's clean air rules because of early investments in their generating fleets."
The report was prepared on behalf of a coalition of electric companies that collectively have the capacity to generate more than 146,000 megawatts of electricity, including 93,000 megawatts from coal and other fossil fuels.
The ins and outs of the original rule are complex. After Congress amended the Clean Air Act to require major industrial polluters to sharply reduce toxic pollutants in 1990, most industries moved to cleaner methods.
However, "there have been a handful of laggard industries that have escaped their requirement to clean up their industry and the most notorious is power plants that burn coal and oil," says the NRDC's Walke.
In 2005, the Bush administration issued what eventually was declared an illegal standard, because it only covered mercury and not the other toxics emitted by coal and oil-fired power plants. That was struck down in D.C. Circuit Court in 2008.
In 2008, a coalition of public health and environmental groups sued EPA to issue the overdue standards, says Jim Pew of Earthjustice, a non-profit public interest law firm. EPA agreed to issue a final standard by Nov. 16, 2011, which was laterextended to Dec. 16.
It's expected that EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson will sign the rule Friday but that it won't be made public until Monday morning.
The proposed rules have been the subject of a furious eleventh hour push by the utility industry to weaken or delay the standards. "The alarmism and fear-mongering that industry has been propagating to try to block these standards is clearly off base," Walke says.
The rule will go go into effect immediately and plants have three years to meet the requirements. In addition, they're written such that most plants could get a one-year extension to install the necessary equipment.
"I don't think anybody in 1990 would have envisioned that they would be able to delay this so long," says the Lung Association's Nolen. "It's time we clean these plants up."

By Eric M. Appleman with much assistance, June 29, 2007 -- The campaigns will feed and entertain their supporters in the parking lots and spaces around the Hilton Coliseum. The Republican Party of Iowa created a map, dividing up this space into 11 lots ranging in size from 34,950 square feet to 61,923 square feet, and on Friday, June 22 (eight weeks out) the party held an auction for these lots in a meeting room at the State Historical Building. The minimum bid was $15,000. Only representatives from the campaigns, Iowa GOP executive director Chuck Laudner and political director Craig Robinson were present. Each campaign was allowed to have up to three representatives. Of the eight campaigns, Romney and Brownback both had three people, others two or one, while Hunter had no one present but sent in a $15,000 bid for a lot to be assigned to him. About 15 people were seated around a conference table, with Laudner at a podium at the head of the table and Robinson, seated to his left.
Some of the lots are clearly more desirable than others. Lots 7 and 8 are directly adjacent to the Hilton Coliseum, while lots 1 through 6 are arrayed along the side, 10 is tucked in the back, and 9 and 11 are to be used as campaign sites only if necessary. In the words of one participant, "Everyone assumed Romney would take lot 7, no matter how high it went." Indeed the Romney campaign opened with a $25,000 bid for lot 7, and nobody challenged. Brownback went in at $20,000 for lot 8 and nobody challenged. The remainder of the lots went at close to the minimum bid with very little competition. In addition to the campaigns, American Solutions for Winning the Future (Newt Gingrich's 527 organization), the National Rifle Association, and Americans for Fair Taxation have purchased "vendor lots."
|Lot 1:
|434' x 260' (60,393 square feet)
|Lot 2:
|430' x 222' (55,347 square feet)
|Lot 3:
|230' x 183' (41,805 square feet)
|Lot 4:
|230' x 183' (41,805 square feet)
|Lot 5:
|230' x 183' (41,805 square feet)
|Lot 6:
|295' x 210' (61,923 square feet)
|Lot 7:
|307' x 195' (57,080 square feet)
|Lot 8:
|308' x 175' (49,700 square feet)
|Lot 9:
|260' x 155' (40,530 square feet)
|Lot 10:
|220' x 218' (44,923 square feet)
|Lot 11:
|222' x 160' (34,950 square feet)
Note: By comparison in 1999
Bush bid $40,000 for the same lot as Romney, and Forbes bid $10,000 for
lot picked by Brownback.

Cuisine: Indian
Location: East Victoria Park
I have a more recent food review of Spicy Affair here.
Today is Australia Day and I'm not sure how you spent your day celebrating but I spent mine out at dinner at Spicy Affair. Yes, Australia is a melting pot of cultures and dinner out along the popular dining strip along Albany Highway is where many people were. I'm not sure how I missed this place as Spicy Affair is just two restaurants across from The Prophet Lebanese Cafe and opposite V Burger Bar.
Stepping inside, the restaurant is much like The Prophet – quite large and open, minimal decoration but enough to present an inviting environment. There was a pedestal fan close by to keep us cool but it was more than comfortable inside. After a look at the menu, we ordered the following:
- Hara Bhara Kaba – mixture of spinach, potato and cheese, Indian spices, served with mint chutney. The entree comes with a serve of 4 though someone helped themselves before I could snap a photo. They are a little dry but are moistened with the mint chutney. They're soft in texture and quite intense in flavour with the spices coming through nicely. I've not eaten this before and I enjoyed it.
- Non-Veg Mixed Entree – Fish Amritsari, Chicken or Lamb Seekh Kabab, Chicken Tikka. The mint chutney is exactly the same as in the other entree. It is a little runny and could be slightly thicker but good flavour. The other sauce goes well with the seekh kebabs, adding a moistness and sweetness to the strong meaty flavour of the kebab. The kebabs were well cooked and still retained a certain moistness and smoky flavour from the grill, however, while it had a nice flavour, it was well short of a typical Seekh kebab. The chicken tikka was lovely and moist, and had that tandoor roasted impact which was apparent in the flavour. The fish amritsari was excellent. Tender, moist fish encased within a batter that had gone just short of soggy from the steam but contained a lovely mix of spices presenting great flavour.
- Malai Kofta – vegetarian dish containing grated cottage cheese potato dumplings cooked in a mild, creamy sauce. I thought this looked interesting when I saw this on the menu. The dumplings were quite nice having a softness to them with ample flavour. The creamy curry was delicious with a strong potato flavour, fairly good thickness, and a little bit of bite to add that little chilli hit. The curry is tasty on it's own.
- Butter Chicken – a specialty of the restaurant, tandoor roasted chicken cooked in a creamy tomato sauce. A particular favourite of mine and no doubt many Australians, the butter chicken is one of Spicy Affair's specialties. True to form, this version of butter chicken was superb! The chicken still had a strong tandoor roasted flavour, was moist and tender, and the creamy tomato curry was fantastic. The curry was thick and contained that typical sweetness but not too sweet. Excellent flavour, I noticed that each of the curries (the 'sauce') were quite thick, but not gluggy or runny, containing great flavour and was nice and creamy. I could have just kept eating this.
- Fish Goan Curry – fish cooked in goan style sauce with crushed herbs. Very distinctive flavour compared to the other dishes, the curry wasn't too fishy but had a strong flavour due to the presence of the herbs which gave this curry it's character. Tender fish, good serving as with the other dishes, good quantity of protein present.
- Specialty Goat Curry – baby goat with bone cooked in chef's special recipe. This was fantastic! Very tender baby goat which has been removed from the bone and placed in another thickish, creamy, flavoursome curry. This curry had a more meaty character to it than the other dishes.
- Saffron Rice – saffron flavoured basmati rice. An excellent vehicle for transporting the delicious curries present, they will definitely stick to the grains. The rice is loose and flavoursome.
- Garlic Naan – I had a little taste of this and it has a subtle garlic flavour and was tasty.
- Cheese Naan – naan stuffed with ricotta cheese and light spices. This was what I ordered and the naan was thick and very filling. There was ample filling of ricotta and the choice of cheese gave a certain light cheese flavour without it being too cheesy. Despite being stuffed, the naan itself was very thick, but still light and tasty even at the end of the meal. I notice naans I've eaten at other restaurants have a tendency to be soft when served but chewy when they cool. Not this one.
An order of gulab jamun was shared for dessert – 2 golf ball sized dumplings in syrup, which were pretty good. I know we ordered a lot of food, but one quarter of a naan would be ample instead of 4 quarters. With a little rice and a quarter of a naan to mop up the delicious curries, a few pieces of meat from each of the curries, you'll be very full. We had a fair amount left over so we asked for it to be packed up and took it home. We also took home an order of chicken biryani and shahi paneer (paneer is an Indian cheese cooked in a creamy tomato sauce). They were both excellent. The biryani is not authentic but I've yet to eat a really good version at any restaurant thus far but I have had a slightly better version than Spicy Affair's. This version was tasty and flavoursome but still short of the real deal. I was certainly stuffed with all that was served and really enjoyed the food presented.
Spicy Affair Food Review Summary
Verdict: One of the few Indian restaurants I've been to where the pricing of dishes is very reasonable. For some reason, Indian restaurants price their dishes more towards the upper end of what I'd expect and I don't believe they can justify their pricing. However, at Spicy Affair, the well priced dishes deliver more than decent servings, containing a good amount of protein in their dishes with plenty of thickish, creamy curries carrying lots of flavours which are very mild. I didn't notice any dishes containing any chilli hit of note so if you can't tolerate the heat, then I'm sure you'll enjoy the food served here. I like mixed platters which are a great way to start a meal off with a variety of offerings. Right from the start, the individual components were tasty and flavoursome, although, the Seekh kebab needs a little bit of work. The curries that followed were excellent. I particularly enjoyed the goat curry which was fantastic and I love butter chicken and was not let down by Spicy Affair's specialty dish which was superb. The herb influenced Goan fish curry presents a different contrast while the vegetarian Malai kofta was something different. The naans were thick, soft, and filling and required along with rice, to mop up the delicious, thickish, creamy curries. While the curries are very consistent in terms of their consistency and texture, one may criticise the lack of variety in that all of the curries are very creamy despite carrying different flavours. I guess this is their style and if this isn't what you're after then you might not like it. But for me, Spicy Affair present excellent flavours at excellent prices, great value dishes that didn't skimp on protein or their servings. I think this restaurant would shoot to the top of the best Indian restaurants in Perth in my opinion. It might not have the flashy interior, but they deliver on taste which is ultimately what people come to a restaurant for.
Price: Reasonable
Taste: Delicious
Value: Excellent
Recommendation: Highly Recommend

|Bose Hutchcraft and Jim Moran III, 1936
These two pictures were taken about 1936 at Reelfoot Lake. The tall lanky fellow is Percy Bose Hutchcraft and the other guy is Jim Moran III. On the far right side at Jim's elbow you can see a small boat and that's the boathouse behind the two men.
Bose Hutchcraft was born in 1875 in Kentucky. It appears that Bose and his siblings moved to Tennessee settling in Obion and Lake counties.
Bose married Ida Dickey May 13 1892 in Obion and they had three children: Nannie, Lottie May and Joseph Freeman Hutchcraft. Nannie married Elbert Spicer. Lottie married Johnnie Cochran and Joseph married Mary Earl Bell. In census records Bose's occupation is fisherman. I think Ida died between 1910 and 1920. Bose was living in Hornbeak when he passed away on October 6, 1944. He and several of his Hutchcraft kin are buried at Antioch Baptist Cemetery in Hornbeak.
Pictured below, left to right, are Maibelle Shumate Harris, Jim Moran, Bose Hutchcraft and Virginia Shumate Moran.
Maibelle was one of Virginia's sisters. She had moved to Fort Worth Texas and married Newton Temple Harris Sr., one of the founders of the Fort Worth Warehouse and Transfer Company. It's possible that Newton was the one behind the camera that day. Maibelle and family are interred at Oakwood Cemetery in Fort Worth.
Behind them and to the right are cabins at the Lake and I wonder if that car which can be seen through the boathouse belonged to Jim.
Updated February 2, 2013
Came across a postcard of Jim Hutchcraft's Place on Reelfoot Lake. Jim's parents are Joseph Freeman Hutchcraft and Mary Earl Bell. Jim is the grandson of Bose. The postcard is dated July 31 1958 and was sent from Jim Moran III to his infant grandson Charles Scott Moran.

Sen. Bob Bennett calls alternative energy - solar, geothermal, wind, biofuels - the "promised land," and yet he, Sen. Orrin Hatch and other Republicans refuse to do enough to help Americans get there.
Instead, these old-school diehards want to continue our fossil-fuel dependency by throwing our innovative energy and taxpayer resources toward getting oil from shale rock rather than on clean alternative-energy vehicles that can take us where we need to go.
So it is no surprise Hatch and Bennett were ecstatic about the Bush administration's Bureau of Land Management plan to go ahead with rules for development of oil shale and tar sands on nearly 2 million acres in Utah, Wyoming and Colorado, despite a congressional moratorium directing BLM not to finalize such regulations. And they want the moratorium lifted.
But their enthusiasm is misguided. It shows their backward thinking, their determination to cling to the status quo: Big Oil funneling millions to the campaigns of members of Congress, who in turn give the industry healthy government subsidies while paying lip service to alternative energy development.
America in the 21st century must wean itself off carbon-based energy. Continued reliance on oil, whether from strip mining of rocks or drilling, will only speed us more quickly toward catastrophic climate change and global political instability. It cannot reduce fuel prices for American motorists in the short term or help solve the problems of oil dependency in the long term.
This unreasonable hunger for shale oil far outpaces our ability to produce it. Oil cannot be cooked from shale on a commercially viable scale. There is no proven technology that would not also produce many tons of carbon dioxide, the major cause of climate change, use too much of the West's water and not damage the environment. Many thousands of acres already have been leased for oil shale production that cannot be mined without new technology.
The BLM itself estimates that oil from shale will require at least one new 1,500- to 2,400-megawatt power plant and about three barrels of water for every barrel of oil produced. The two-year-old moratorium was sponsored by Colorado Congress members to prevent a headlong rush to oil shale and tar sands development.

1. Re: How to mount a cd-rom on a OE 5.7 guest?budachst Nov 12, 2012 10:20 AM (in response to Rudi)Well… it's pretty hard to judge on what you did wrong, since you haven't actually provided what you did, that led to that error. As far as I can say, all Oracle VM templates provide a complete stack of the OS, including NFS.
If you'd wanted to mount a CD-Rom inside an OVM guest, it would be easiest to convert such a CD to an ISO file, import that ISo using OVMM and attach that ISO file to the quest in question.
2. Re: How to mount a cd-rom on a OE 5.7 guest?Rudi Nov 12, 2012 4:10 PM (in response to budachst)Ok,I will explain further :
1.I downloaded an Oracle EM12cR2 template from e-Delivery.
2.I cloned the template to a guest.The OS is OE 5.7
3.The new guest is running fine.I was able to expand its disks,without any problems.
Now my goal is to mount one of our NAS servers,as I need to install some addition software on the guest.
At that point I hit the nfs error.
Anyway,I made some progress regarding the cd-rom mount :
1.I downloaded and imported into my repository a full OE 5.7 iso
2.I changed the guest to be PVM and
3.I exported the iso to my guest as a CD-DVD
4.In the guest I mounted the iso as cd-rom and its working fine
Additionally I defined it as a yum local repository
I installed nfs rpm's (which were missing) and the dependents rpm's using yum
I still have some issues ,but I think I'm better now.
3. Re: How to mount a cd-rom on a OE 5.7 guest?Dennis Lovelady Nov 12, 2012 6:51 PM (in response to Rudi)Hi, Rudi:
Care to share what the remaining issues are, so that we may provide advice? Or are you working through this?
4. Re: How to mount a cd-rom on a OE 5.7 guest?Rudi Nov 13, 2012 7:37 AM (in response to Dennis Lovelady)I had to restart the guest and now the "mount" command is working fine

Although there's no exact confirmation just yet, all eyes point to the unveiling of Sprint's version of the HTC One X. Dubbed as the HTC EVO One, we've already been seeing a stream of leaks in regards to its eventual arrival. As you can tell, it bears the EVO moniker and aims to bring grace to the beloved Android line yet again.
For the most part, it seems to maintain all of the hardware specs found with the One X, like its gargantuan 4.7" 720p display, 8-megapixel camera, and Beats audio support. However, it's speculated that it'll be packing an even larger 2,650 mAh battery, which would work nicely with its expected 4G LTE connection. Also, much like the original HTC EVO 4G, it's rumored to flaunt an ever so useful kickstand in the rear as well.
Well folks, with less than 7 hours left before the shindig starts, we're certain that anticipation will continue to rise, as we're all curious to know exactly what's coming. Therefore, just don't forget to check back here starting at 5:00 PM EST for our complete live coverage!

The notion that we should hit "through" the ball has been around for decades, but what does it really mean? Can we really hit through the ball? How long is contact? With lighter racquets and faster racquet head speeds, is this instruction still relevant? If you're curious to see if this instruction should be sent to your recycle bin, read on.

David Nalbandian's disqualification from Sunday's final of the AEGON Championships at Queen's Club in London is, without question, one of the most unusual conclusions to a tennis match – and tennis tournament – in the history of the sport. Leading Marin Cilic 7-6, 3-4, the Argentine kicks a wooden advertising base surrounding the service linesman, breaking it and causing part of the sign to jam into the linesman's shin, causing a bloody one-inch gash in his leg. Chair umpire Fergus Murphy…Continue

You can't live on yellow all day every day. Could someone jump out of a tree and jack me up? Sure. The chances of it? Slim. Chances if they did it that they'd be on the ground too? Better.
Dudes could climb into my bedroom window at night, even up 3 floors, but I don't lock my window at night. Why? Risk assessment.
If you spend your time looking at reflections in mirrors, checking trees and looking behind you all the time, you're going to trip and land on your face. ;) Being aware is not the same as being paranoid.
As a heads up, even in the jungle I never had someone jump out of a tree -- stupid monkeys that would steal our cigarettes and throw crap at us? Yup. Tree climbing hoodlums? Nope. Sure, look up in the trees if you feel the need, but when you're scanning for SA, you should be watching for danger, not expecting it. There is a huge difference.

Last week's thaw was a mere tease for the Midwest and Northeast with the polar vortex set to make an encore performance this week.
The stretch of mild weather across the Northeast came to an end with the weekend after temperatures rose into the 60s in Washington, D.C., and into the 50s in Philadelphia, New York City and Boston.
Highs on Monday will be 10 to 20 degrees colder throughout the Northeast and mid-Atlantic following the passage of a band of rain and nuisance snow on Sunday night.
Colder air has already erased the mild spell across the Midwest, and Sunday should prove to be one of the "warmest" days of this week.
Waves of even colder air will pour down from the depths of the Arctic to the northern Rockies, Midwest and Northeast as this week progresses and the polar vortex plunges southward.
Each cold blast will dip into the southern Plains and South, leading to some cooling. However, the core of the polar vortex will have a firm grip on the northern tier of the U.S.
"The polar vortex is essentially a mass of very cold air that usually hangs out above the Arctic Circle and is contained by strong winds," said AccuWeather.com Senior Meteorologist Alex Sosnowski.
Under the grip of the polar vortex, the Upper Midwest, Great Lakes and St. Lawrence Valley will endure several days in the teens and single digits.
Overnight lows well below zero, even approaching 30 below zero near the Canadian border, will dominate the Upper Midwest.
Temperatures will even be held below zero during the daylight hours on one or more days in Winnipeg, Canada, Fargo, N.D., and St. Cloud, Minn.
Subfreezing highs in the 20s and lower 30s will be common throughout the Northeast. In late February, such highs are 10 to 20 degrees below normal.
"One reason for the cold blast carrying more weight than you might expect is the fact that the Great Lakes are largely frozen over," Sosnowski continued.
"The air will not moderate to the extent as if most of the lakes were not frozen. In addition, while the amount and extent of the snow on the ground has diminished, many areas north of I-70 have retained some sort of snow cover."
With fresh snow also re-entering the picture, some communities will have snow cover once again increase.
Initially, nuisance snow events with amounts generally on the order of a coating to an inch or two will streak across the Midwest and Northeast through Tuesday.
Later in the week and through the start of March, with the cold air still in place and storms finally returning rain and mountain snow to California, the path could be laid for one or more disruptive snowstorms to travel from the Rockies to the Plains to the East Coast.

question about gable overhang framing
Been researching this quite a bit, seems there are two options:
My b uilding is a 10X12 with an 11-12 pitch, with rafters spanning 5' 11 1/4".
I would like to have exposed eaves and rakes, the rafter tails are already overhanging by 12" and I'd like to do a 12" overhang on the gables.
Is my only option to frame some 2X4 lookouts, notched through the end gable rafter? Or, can the OSB support the 12" overhang, simply by dangling, and have the top of the rafter face nailed into the end grain of the ridge board?
Also, if I cover up the end of the ridge with my overhang rafters, won't that mess up the way the sheathing lies? Assuming all the other rafter butt to the ridge, leaving a square top? ....
I would say you need to support it with more then OSB
I have a 6" overhang that is supported by sheathing & brackets
I wouldn't trust 12" to OSB
I have always measured out any overhang & included that when running my rafters
so, should i just build the dang lookouts, and live with the strange look?
should i gut the ridge pole flush with the framing, and just go with lookouts so that i don't have issues with the overhang rafters?
Are you putting on a fascia board at the tails? I always run that wild on the gable, at least the overhang distance, plus some.
Your ridge should be: top edges flush with the ends of rafters, or held down to allow 1" air space above ( for ridge venting). I extend the ridge board past (through) the gable wall, then narrowing the width to be smaller than the barge rafter.
Cut ridge to O.H. width minus barge thickness. Install barges tight, face nailing and rake boards ( which cover ply end grain edge). Or, no fascia - install a sub-fascia, cutting the gable rafter tail off the thickness of that material. Nail sub through side of first common rafter back, face nail into gable rafter, and be nailed into through barge rafter.
Rip the osb to the width of your gable overhang, install it running up and down the roof plane. With a 12" O.H., strength grain running with the rip, it will be fine. Add a dummy block, flat, either: in line with the wall/rafter blocks; or towards the top- 8' up from the tail overhang. Be safe, GBR
Yep, what GBR said.
The ridge will support the top of the barge rafter and a fascia board will support the bottom.
This will make the 12" overhang on the OSB negligible since the top and bottom of the barge is then supported, the barge is now basically a rafter.
Here's a good site that shows various framing techniques!
Never, never ever use nails into end-grain if you are connecting a load bearing member. I don't recommend using wood screws either, and only lag screws when it is the only option.
The National Design Specification (based on testing, research, etc.) says you can't load nails or screws "in withdrawal from end grain of wood." It also says that when placed in the end grain, lag screws can only carry 75% of their rated load.
Wow, that's a new one for me! All I've EVER seen is nails, I use galvanized 16d. Considering that barge rafter is carrying itself and 6" of osb and snow load, what- 45# per---= 12' at 1.1 for span. This span is only 9'. 3-16d nails at the top, 2-16d nails at the bottom, what's the shear on that? 16d x 2= ? There won't be any withdraw force as it's top nailed. Plus they are butted to each other at the ridge. I know it holds me up, I'm 180#, because I've built like that for 35 years, and haven't had one break. What is the shear on a 16d common? 200#? 150#? I've seen gable overhangs sag, when there wern't enough supports present, but never because of nail shear failure. I think we need something written in the code books if this is such a complete failure problem. And educate all the citys' and counties' plan check engineers. Be safe, GBR
I have seen people count primarily on the end-grain attachment to the lookouts and, for what ever reason, forget that the overhanging sheathing is still part of the roof diaphragm and needs to be attached accordingly (typically 6" perimeter and 12" field ea sheet). When its not installed properly wind and shrinkage/expansion can cause the barge rafter to pull away from the lookouts over time (nails just wiggle lose from end grain). This lets in moisture and bugs and over time the barge rafter gets warped and sags and makes the roof flashing in effective...more moisture issues with sheathing follow.
I guess I should have been more clear on this. But, yeah you see people put nails in end grain w/ withdrawal loading all the time and nobody catches it until you go for a site visit/inspection.
Thank you, wildcat, for more info. I realize now that I have to be more precise in my directions. I did skip "nail the osb 6"o.c., with 8dgalv. into the barge rafter", then the rake board will cover the end grain. With much involvement on the forum, it makes one more exacting in his reply. (butchered sentence) I can't imagine the things you've seen in bad construction, but I'll bet you have some stories to tell! I apologize if I sounded harsh last night, it was way past my bedtime. Be safe, GBR

GOLDEN, Colo., April 21, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- A survey of 1,339 people with fibromyalgia conducted by The National Pain Foundation and NationalPainReport.com, revealed that those who have used marijuana to treat their symptoms find it significantly more effective than any of the three drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat the disorder.

The three drugs approved for the treatment of fibromyalgia are Cymbalta (Duloxetine); Lyrica (Pregabalin); and Savella (Milnacipran).
How Cymbalta Performs for Fibromyalgia Sufferers (N=960)
- 60% say Cymbalta does not work at all
- 32% say Cymbalta helps a little
- 8% say Cymbalta was very effective
How Lyrica Performs for Fibromyalgia Sufferers (N=860)
- 61% say Lyrica does not work at all
- 29% say Lyrica helps a little
- 10% say Lyrica was very effective
How Savella Performs for Fibromyalgia Sufferers (N=387)
- 68% say it does not work at all
- 22% say it helps a little
- 10% say it was very effective
How Marijuana Performs for Fibromyalgia Sufferers (N=379)
- 5% say it does not work at all
- 33% marijuana helps a little
- 62% say marijuana was very effective
Comments from survey respondents regarding the use of marijuana to treat Fibromyalgia:
- "I've found nothing that has worked for me, apart from marijuana."
- "Nothing but medical marijuana has made the greatest dent in the pain and mental problems."
- "Marijuana does help a LOT, it numbs the pain. But, it doesn't last long and it makes your brain foggy."
Ninety-six percent (96%) of survey respondents were females. About half (49%) were diagnosed between the ages of 18 and 34, while 38% were diagnosed between the ages of 35 to 49. Only 12% were diagnosed at the age of 50 or older.
Forty-four percent (44%) lived with Fibromyalgia for more than five years before receiving a diagnosis. Only 11% were diagnosed within one year of experiencing symptoms.
Four out of ten (43%) of fibromyalgia sufferers feel their physician is not knowledgeable about the disorder. Over a third (35%) feel their physician does not take their fibromyalgia seriously. And 45% feel their family and friends do not take their fibromyalgia seriously.
