Service dog question..very confused, would like advice and suggestions
I currently live in HUD housing and have one pet. My doctor has prescribed me a service dog.
I have talked with my landlord and was told that I could not have both dogs in my apartment, even if one was a service dog. I told her that I was under the impression that service dogs were exempt from any pet policies, however she says that she has discretion because in my lease it says only one pet per unit and landlord can modify any clauses. please help with advice on this topic. I am just confused because my therapist told me different. thanks in advance

I'm fairly certain your landlord is wrong (I am also a landlord). But I would re-post this in the Service & Therapy Dogs forum (Community --> Forums --> Service & Therapy Dogs) to get some legalese on this.

First, are you talking about a service dog, or emotional support animals? They are two different things, and covered under different laws.
The laws might vary based on where you live as well. Even if they are emotional support animals, you should be able to have them if a doctor orders it. There are a few reasons a landlord can refuse, but they are very specific reasons.
Look up your local Fair Housing Council. They should be the ones who can tell you the laws where you live and what you can do about the situation.

I have a service dog and your landlord is wrong go to www.ada.gov/qasrvc.htm I'll check to make sure this is right but it explains things in simple terms. You can have your Doctor write you a letter saying your other dog is a "Companion Dog" which as I understand will allow you to have both dogs. Also go to www.psychdog.org

companion dogs, therapy dogs and service dogs are totally different. first, wich one is yours? only a service dog is covered by ada laws. companion and therapy dogs are not. if your dog isn't a service dog your landlord is right. if he is a service dog i believe your landlord is wrong. but that would depend on the laws where you are at.

95 Classic Build
Hey guys. Im new here and new to Land Rovers. Finally got my hands on a RRC after selling my pre-runner truck. Its a 95 in decent shape. I was hoping to get a 95 because of the updates. I got a pretty good deal on the truck. I lucked out and found a classic that had a good base to start with. Rust is pretty minimal. Motor and tranny have had a recent over haul.
This is what came with the RRC.
OME Shocks
3" Springs
Equipe Trailing Arms
Radius Arms (not sure brand)
Steering Stabilizer OME
HD Upgraded Steering/panhard (not sure brand)
ARB Bumper
X9 Winch Synthetic Line
Stainless Brake Lines
Borla Exhaust
New 285/75/16 (33"s) Mud Rovers
Disco Conversion Drive Shafts
I have big pans for this rig. I need to fix a few things first. Im going to build some stainless bradded oil/tranny cooler lines as one of them is weeping and is making a mess. Not really interested in catching on fire ether. I also think my PS lines may be leaking. I have some broken interior plastic pieces, drivers rear view mirror that the lens is cracked, rear view mirror has a oil'y thing going inside the glass, drivers passenger window is off the track, and rear window shocks are blown out. Once i fix all that stuff its on to the build. Im not one for buying parts unless i have too. Not to be cheap i just like making my own parts.
Once i fix the above (all are driving me crazy) its on to the fun part. In the immediate future i plan on building tube front and rear bumpers. Tube fenders and rock rails. Id like to lift it about 2" more and 35"s. I like add a roof rack, but it wont fit in my garage if i lift it more and 35"s. So ill probably make a Jeep style swinging tire carrier. I can't wait to get started!

Like we talked about before, another 2" is going to open up a pretty big can of worms. I'll list out the majority of the stuff you're going to need so you have a tangible list to reference. Aside from the obvious stuff (springs, shocks, brake lines, etc.), you need to account for:
-Driveshafts are definitely going to be needed. At 3" you're pretty much at the limit of what those stock shafts can do. Tom Woods is great, but there are a handful of guys who can take care of this.
-Swivel balls are going to need to be re-drilled to correct the caster. The higher you go, the worse the truck will steer without correction.
-To fit those 35's you're absolutely going to need to re-gear. She's right on the threshold of being pleasant to drive as is, and bigger tires will push you over without a re-gear. The stock R&P isn't the strongest, either.
-If you plan on wheeling it, axle shafts are a must. Those stockers aren't good for much. There are a handful of vendors offering these; Rovertracks, Great Basin Rovers, Ashcroft and Terrafirma. Keith at RT is a cool guy.
I'm sure someone will chime in on the stuff I've forgotten, but that covers the majority of it. Because you're DD'ing it, I'd keep it on 33's, put lockers in and just polish up the interior and exterior.

Are these classics getting rare in the US yet? Over here the price is climbing for good tidy ones and even the not-so-tidy but still road-legal. Bit of a shame to chop up a nice one.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned so far. What do you actually plan to use it for?

Hey Guys,
Thanks Ash for the info, sounds like pretty much what we talked about before. Sense i bought the truck iv gone search crazy. Im defiantly looking to go beyond the standard 3" lift and tires that most people run. Ash you know i cant have anything near stock form. Of course all of the will happen over time and ill be collecting parts to do it right.
When i was looking for a RRC i there were quite a few for sale. I would say they most were in stock from and not running or in really bad shape. Seems the purists like the safari look and function. Don't get me wrong they look and preform great. That's just not my style. I like to be a tad different. It will be used as a DD/trail truck. Id like to go camping with it too. Id like to be able to "use" it for whatever strikes the mood. Dont let the black paint fool you. The body is pretty ruff...
I wish i had some time coming up. Im itching to get cutting a welding...

I have been that route, the performance increase from "3 to "5 is pretty small for the dollars and effort.

meh, no need for portals. fzj80 axles and 35-37"s will get it done for MUCH less and you can actually attain parts (at any Toyota dealership).
3" lift on 35's and some trimming of body work makes a VERY capable rig.

I wouldnt lift the suspension another 2", rather I would do a 2" body lift. My rangie used to have a 5 inch lift when I bought it and it was very scary to drive and very unstable on cross slopes. Dropped in 2 inch and with the 2 inch body lift to clear the 35s it now handles a lot better. I also drilled the swivels and it really improved the handling at speed...had to rebuild the hubs anyway so might as well have done it.
Cant wait to see the build progress.

It looks pretty straight right now. I would just sell it. Buy a used Range Rover hood, cause five years down the road that is all that is going to left once you have finished anyway.

As i mentioned over the weekend i got to get some solid time in on the RRC. My plan was to make the tube fenders first. I wanted to make the fenders "bolt on" and i couldn't find a way to tie them solid. So i decided to make the rock sliders first and tie them in to the sliders.
So heres is what i came up with on the rock sliders. They bolt in and are super solid. Im a big advocate for a clean install. I made them bolt on instead of weld in because i want to powder coat them and have them easily removable.
I used 2"X3" rectangle tube for the main structure. 1.5" square for the legs. 2.5"X2.5" 3/16" angle for the mounts and 1 5/8" 120 DOM for the tube. I used 1/2" grade 8 hardware. Id say all in all the a pretty strong set up.

After i got the rock sliders finished i started on the front fenders. I got about half way and the ol ADD kicked in. I was thinking about the rear of the truck and what i wanted to do. Next thing i know every single thing except the rear side windows was left on the back half of the cab....
I have had quite a few people on Pirate and other forums say im crazy for pulling apart my RRC. "Its too clean". Its really not.
Busted up rears removed. When i bought the truck the owner had a spare set of rear fenders.
I though the tail light portion of the rear fender was welded to the truck and there not. Im going to have to get a new right side.
While i was pulling everything out i found that there was a lot of rust on the rear part of the floor.
I cut it all out. Ill box it in with some 2x2 angle. I also found a random area near the right wheel well that needed to be cut out.
Im going to remove the rear portion (about 8") off the rear of the frame and weld on some straight/usable area to attach a bumper to. Someone did a serious hack job here... Check out these sweet "welds".
I should have the front tube fenders done this weekend. More soon...

I got a little further on my front fenders. Im going to add a few mounts. But this is the basic mock up. Ill plate it (obviously add cut outs for the lights) and the open section behind the light area. Im also going to cut down the area where the battery box is as its dead space and ill have the batteries in the back. Ill be using part of the original fender to cover the open area near the door. Ill have them finished up over the weekend.

Thanks guys.
Well a lot of work went into the truck today. To bad it wasn't anything fun. I got rid of all the rusted out spots. Welded in a square plate where some rust was and welded in some 1/8" 2"X2" angle to cap off the rear of the floor. Its super strong and wont rot out again.
While i was at it i torched an scraped off all of the sound deadening. I also cut and tabs and studs out of the rear. I plan on building some pretty trick storage areas on either of the back.
Behind the drivers side passenger wheel well it was pretty haggard. It was pushed up about 1-2" and creased pretty bad. A lot of hammering later i got it pretty close to smoothed out.
I have to add a metal strip on the new area for wether stripping, but other than that she's all fixed up. Ill be spraying in some bed liner soon sound deaden and keep it rust free. Not to mention clean up will be easy.

George Will relies on falsehoods to call Blumenthal a serial liar
Blog ››› ››› JEREMY HOLDEN
On ABC's This Week, George Will accused Connecticut Senate candidate Richard Blumenthal of being a serial liar, a charge Will rested on the demonstrably false claim that Blumenthal misrepresented his record during a January interview by stating that he had not previously taken campaign contributions from a political action committee. Will pointed to "$220,000 in PAC money" he said Blumenthal has received during this campaign cycle as evidence of Blumenthal's mendacity. But according to campaign contribution records, Blumenthal's first contribution from a political action committee came nearly a month after his MSNBC interview, where he clearly discussed his policy toward PAC money while campaigning for state attorney general.
Discussing a controversial New York Times article that misleadingly presented Blumenthal's characterization of his military record, Will purported to illustrate Blumenthal's "serial problem" with being truthful:
How do you explain the fact that he evidently told the Hartford Courant that he was the captain of a Harvard swim team when he was never on the swim team? How do you explain the fact that he goes on Morning Joe, goes on MSNBC and says I have never taken PAC money, when he really meant in previous campaigns because in this campaign, evidently, he's taken $220,000 of PAC money. This is a serial problem.
Will's suggestion is an apparent reference to an interview Blumenthal gave MSNBC on January 7, stating, "I've never taken PAC money, and I have rejected all special interest money, because I have stood strong and taken legal action against many of those special interests." And indeed, according to Federal Election Commission records, Blumenthal had received no contributions from any PACs at that time. Blumenthal himself reportedly addressed questions about subsequent contributions to his campaign. An April 27 Fairfield Weekly article reported :
Another factor that discouraged him from running for governor, Blumenthal says, was that he had four young children. "Of all the things I've done in my life, I'm proudest of my family," he says. Now, Blumenthal's eldest son is in the Marines and the others are in college or about to finish high school, a situation he believes gives him far more leeway to make a major political move.
For that move, Blumenthal is going to need every freaking penny he can find.
He's already gotten in some hot water by departing from his long-running campaign practice of spurning money from political action committees. A Federal Elections Commission report filed last week showed Blumenthal has taken in more than $223,000 in PAC dollars so far from insurance companies like Aflac and the Phoenix Companies Inc., as well as PACs formed by labor groups that include the American Postal Workers Union.
"I said I hadn't taken any PAC money [for those A.G. campaigns]," Blumenthal says of a January TV interview when he was asked about that policy. "I didn't say I wouldn't take any."
Blumenthal argues that, as attorney general, there was the likelihood he would be "going to court and potentially confronting PACs or the interests they represent." The best way to avoid any conflict, he says, was to not take those special-interest contributions.
He says his role as a U.S. senator would be very different, with the focus on making law rather than prosecuting lawsuits. "There is no way any contribution, individual or PAC, is going to influence what I do as a U.S. senator."
Will gave no indication how contributions to his campaign made weeks later rendered Blumenthal's January comments indicative of any tendency to lie.
Will further cited the falsehood that Blumenthal fabricated his position on the Harvard swim team as evidence of a "serial problem" with the truth. In fact, a former captain of the Harvard swim team reportedly confirmed to the Hartford Courant that Blumenthal was a member, and Will gave no evidence to support his contention that Blumenthal ever "told" the Courant that he was a captain of the team. In correcting an earlier profile that identified Blumenthal as swim team captain, the Courant itself gave no indication that Blumenthal ever said he was captain.
The only serial problem on display is George Will's reliance on falsehoods to make his case.

Fort Bliss Confirms Nuclear Bombs Made on Post During Cold War
Uranium may still be buried in other locations
EL PASO, Texas - Fort Bliss officials confirm government environmental investigators expanded their search for sites emitting radiation on post Wednesday.
The broadened investigation comes after a bunker and its surrounding area were found to contain alpha and beta radiation particles, a finding which was released publicly on Tuesday.
"We've received more than 40 calls," Major Joe Buccino said. "People are calling from all over the U.S., most of the calls are from retirees who worked here back in the fifties and sixties."
The army post was unaware of the possibility that potentially harmful radiation existed in the bunkers, which were being used to house training weapons, Buccino said.
Fort Bliss officials were tipped off to the information that uranium had been buried beneath the bunkers by a retired air force veteran who built nuclear bombs on the site which was formerly operated by Biggs Air Force base.
"We don't know quite the scope of how far into the desert this stuff may be buried," Buccino said.
The spokesman said more radioactive sites on post are possible, extending up to White Sands Missile Range, Buccino said.
ABC-7 obtained court records detailing a criminal case in which a former army private, and member of the Ordnance Special Weapons Unit at Fort Bliss until 1960, was convicted of giving information on how the post built nuclear bombs during the 1950s to Russian government officials.
Fort Bliss officials say they do not know of any other locations where uranium may be buried on post.

After this frigid winter, summer couldn't come fast enough for most people.
And Stow residents know the season has arrived when it's time for the city's annual Stow Pride Festival.
This year, the events kick off with the Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library's Customer Appreciation Day on June 26 and end with the 56th marching of the Fourth of July Parade.
As part of its Customer Appreciation Day on June 26, the library will host a concert by the Community Jazz Band at 11 a.m., followed by two Mark Angelo's Comedy Juggling Shows at 2 and 3:30 p.m.
Later in the day, "Fiddler on Fire" Krista Solars will perform in the Reading Garden (or if it rains, in the Stow-Munroe Falls Room). And while enjoying the music, indulge in some free ice cream from Handel's.
These programs are co-sponsored by the Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library and the Friends of the Library.
The Chamber of Commerce's annual Pride Golf Outing starts off the weekend on June 27 and is sold out.
For the baseball enthusiasts, it will be Stow Night at Canal Park June 27 to see the Akron Rubber Ducks take on the Harrisburg Senators 7:05 p.m.. Attendees can sit in a special Stow section and enjoy a fireworks show after the game.
For those who love the outdoors, a night of free camping will be offered to Stow residents that same night at the Silver Springs Campground. Want to stay an additional night? Pay $10 and you can enjoy all the amenities of the park and campground, including fishing, hiking, swinging at the playground and taking your canine friend for some exercise and fun at Bow Wow Beach dog park.
Also on the weekend is the three-day Pride Summer Fest at Holy Family Catholic parish which runs June 27 from 5 to 11 p.m.; June 28 from 4 to 11 p.m.; and June 29 from noon to 5 p.m.
In addition to entertainment, games and food, there will be a raffle for a grand prize of $10,000, with the drawing taking place June 29.
On June 28, there will be volunteers in different parts of the city participating in Hands on Stow's Community Clean Up. And that night, enjoy popular, classic and patriotic music at the Pride Orchestra Concert at 7:30 p.m. in the high school auditorium.
Community and business members will be honored July 2 at the Chamber's annual Pride Community Breakfast beginning at 7:30 a.m. at Acker-Moore VFW Post.
Need a shot in your golf game? The Mid Week Mulligan offers 50 percent off green fees at Fox Den Golf Course on July 2.
And the Pride Festival wouldn't be complete without its annual Fourth of July events. Start off the morning with the Stow Firecracker Run -- a 3K Fun Run and a 4-mile race starting at Holy Family School at 7:30 a.m.
Then take your appetite over to the First Christian Church in Stow for the traditional Pride Pancake Breakfast served from 7 to 10 a.m.
And once you're full of pancakes and sausage, find your seat along Kent Road (Route 59) to watch the 56th marching of the Stow Fourth of July Parade, sponsored by Fun in Stow (the city's parks and recreation department) and the Kiwanis Club of Stow-Munroe Falls starting at 10 a.m.
Along with all the marching bands, floats, fire trucks and vehicles of all kinds, the parade will feature its grand marshal for this year, former Stow Mayor Karen Fritschel. The theme for 2014 is "America Celebrates Progress" and 120 units are expected to participate.
Remember how in January and February you said you couldn't wait for the summer to get here? Well, it's here now and there's no better place to celebrate it than in Stow with the annual Pride Festival.
Look for the special section on the Stow Pride Festival in today's paper for a complete listing of Pride Festival events and more detailed information.

MONTREAL/TORONTO April 22 (Reuters) - Canadian pension fund Caisse de depot et placement du Quebec said on Friday that it would invest C$3 billion ($2.37 billion) in a new public transport network in Montreal, the third-largest of its kind in the world.
The network will link downtown Montreal with several suburbs and Montreal's airport in a 67 km (41.6 miles) light rail transit system comprising 24 stations which will operate 20 hours a day, seven days a week. The automated system would be the largest after Dubai's at 80 km, and Vancouver's at 68 km.
The C$5.5 billion project, a public-private partnership, would require C$2.5 billion from the province of Quebec and Canada. A spokeswoman for Quebec Transportation Minister Jacques Daoust said Friday the province would invest in the project. A Canadian government spokesman could not immediately be reached for comment.
Quebec's transport minister told Radio Canada that he would be happy to see a Quebec company like train and plane maker Bombardier Inc win the contract.
But a Quebec spokeswoman later said that Caisse would be in charge of the bidding process.
Caisse, which acquired a 30 percent stake in Bombardier Transportation in 2015, will hold a global call for tenders audited by two experts to ensure a transparent and fair process, pension fund Chief Executive Michael Sabia said in an interview.
He said that Caisse, Canada's second-largest pension fund, would be begin qualifying consortia in the fall of 2016. Continued...

Custodian Accused of Bilking School
New York, NY —
A custodian at West Side High School in Manhattan is accused of organizing a payroll scheme in which he stole nearly $100,000 from the Education Department. The Special Commissioner of Investigations for the city schools claims Philip Portelli clocked two fellow custodians for overtime and lunch breaks they didn't earn between 2006 and 2008. The commissioner, Richard Condon, also claims Portelli had a friend who was not employed as a custodian submit W2s - meaning the friend received paychecks and even paid taxes.
CONDON: We've had no-show employees, but this is rather unusual.
Condon says Portelli was reassigned to a different school during the investigation and has not yet been charged. New York District Attorney Robert Morgenthau's office is reviewing the case.

Green is the new red. The cut flower industry has traditionally used chemically intensive means to obtain a quality product, and since 1991 has been centered out of the United States. Question is, if you want to be more green-minded, how do you go about it?
There are easy options to pursue. Buying local is the first choice for the freshest product, and one that doesn't require enormous transportation costs. Many local florists offer flowers grown organically by area boutique growers from late spring through the fall. However, winter does present its problems for Minnesota Valentine flower enthusiasts. Enter Len Busch Roses, a local grower that provides not only the freshest roses but also lilies, tulips, alstroemerias and gerbera daisies to local floral wholesalers. Year-round production in their area greenhouses makes this possible. They promise a quality product thoughtfully produced with regard to the environment and their employees. "We believe all results should happen under the umbrella of stewardship to the world in which we live, by serving people and managing our resources wisely."
This is not a certified organic grower. However, their expressed concern for various aspects of the growing process mirrors those who seek Fair Trade, Demeter, and Veriflora certification. (See sidebar for definition of terms.) Many area florists speak highly of their flowers and the process by which they are produced.
One such retailer is Jennifer Zierke of Prairie Crocus Design, LLC, Eden Prairie. She promises sustainably-produced, eco-conscious flowers for her customers, and thinks that Len Busch Roses is topnotch. Jennifer can also obtain Fair Trade and Veriflora certified flowers. "Fair trade flowers have a beautiful scent," she states. "They come direct to me and do not sit in a warehouse." She offers to craft hand-done "green" arrangements for Valentine purchasers.
There are of course a number of online options, from mass producers to the more personal Organic Bouquet, the first online source for sustainable flowers, started in 2001. According to spokesman Gerald Prolman, "This is a matter of supply and choice, rather than supply and demand. The more we make it available, the more people ask for it."
For flowers from a family farm try the web's first grower-owned organic flower source, in Chico, CA. "Growing our flowers organically just makes sense to us since our family lives and works on the farm everyday," says Marc Kessler, who operates California Organic Flowers with his wife Julia.
Consumers should be aware there are issues when using online services. One is loss of control of the outcome. There are many steps in producing a bouquet beautiful enough to express the fondest emotions, from selection to trimming to arranging a unique collection, according to Kate Thomssen of St. Paul's Stems & Vines. This is the kind of service that no mass-market source can guarantee.
If you do choose to use an online source, make sure you are getting what you are promised. Check out the terms listed on the below to assist your choice.
Terms to know when buying green:
Organic: A way of growing plants that evolved post-WWII from the ideas of J.I. Rodale, which promote sustainability by attention to soil care and use of natural rather than artificial chemical products.
USDA Certified Organically-Grown: Refers to a designation awarded by the US Department of Agriculture to growers who maintain strict standards such as three years of chemical-free production, use of certain approved fertilizers and plant care products, and organic seeds.
VeriFlora Certified: The VeriFlora Certified Sustainability Grown label is a guarantee that flowers and potted plants have been produced in an environmentally and socially responsible manner, meeting the highest standard for freshness and quality. These standards are overseen through an independent inspection process.
Fair Trade: An international movement that promotes fair prices and environmental stewardship in the developing world. Begun in Europe in the 1960s, it ensures that small producers get a fair price for their goods, long-term contracts which provide real security, and support to gain the knowledge and skills that they need to develop their businesses and increase sales. It does not necessarily mean certified organic, but participants agree on ecostandards.
Fair Trade Certified: The official endorsement from the independent, third-party certifier TransFair USA that a product has been purchased according to International FairTrade criteria. These criteria are established by FairTrade Labeling Organizations International (FLO) which makes annual inspection visits to ensure that companies honor these standards.
Demeter Biodynamic Certified: Demeter certification represents a historic internationally-based whole-farm approach to agriculture. A not-for-profit organization, it is the only certifier of Biodynamic farms, processors and products. Some European flower sources use this certification.
Terms like All-natural, Eco-friendly, and Sustainable have no universal meaning, so there is no real guarantee of what they mean to the consumer.
Jen Zierke of Prairie Crocus Designs notes that Fair Trade roses are labeled on each stem with certification and origin.

MI: 1999 328i sport sedan $4300
Hello all, I'm selling my 1999 328i sport sedan 5 speed manual that has 170,000 on the chassis and around 97,000 verifiable miles on the engine. The body has two flaws, the first is a passenger side dent that my daughter caused using her hip to close the door. It seems like it could be pulled out but I never tried. The second dent is on the passenger side near the rear wheel. Not sure how it got there but it's there. It does have it's share of blemishes being a 13 year old family car.
The interior shows it's age especially the drivers seat being the most worn.
The driver side window regulator will need to be replaced all other windows function properly.
The newer engine was installed having 85,150 miles out of a wrecked 328i. The engine was installed using the same manifold gasket and exhaust hardware so there is a leak around the manifold area. A mistake I will never do again. I've recently changed both pre-cat o2 sensors, cam sensor, both intake elbows, plugs, and fuel filter. These were all changed because of a check engine light codes. Since these changes were done, there have been no check engine lights.
I have a differential from an auto 325 with a 3.46 ratio that I never installed that will go with the car. The 3.46 gear is a much better gear than the factory 2.93 on the manuals IMHO.
The car drives great with no grinds or slippage. It may need tire rods in the future. I feel a slight pulse in steering wheel when braking. In the air there is minor play on both sides. Tires are good with good tread.
The A/C was never charged after the engine install.
I'm asking $4300 OBO
3.46 differential

Possible Tsunami Observed Along NJ Coast
Scientists are reviewing tsunami-like waves that were observed along the southern New Jersey coast earlier this month.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's West Coast/Alaska Tsunami Warning Center says it happened during the afternoon of June 13 in close conjunction with a weather system known as a low-end derecho. The tsunami was detected by more than 30 tide gauges.
The reports of a tsunami off the Jersey Shore may have raised some eyebrows among area residents. But Cornell Engineering Professor and tsunami specialist Phillip Liu says there are different categories of tsunamis, and that small-scale tsunamis are fairly common around the world.
"These kind of wave heights will not be as big as a 9.0 magnitude earthquake-generated tsunami," Liu said. "That's a very different scale."
Brian Coen told observers he was spear fishing near the mouth of Barnegat Inlet when he spotted a strong outgoing tide expose rocks before he saw a wave 6-feet high span the inlet.
Two of three people who were swept off the rocks of the jetty by the wave required medical attention.
Scientists say it's also possible the slumping at the Continental Shelf east of New Jersey played a role.

I was sitting on the jitney this morning, waiting to depart Manhattan, and the engine abruptly cut power. Everyone on the bus stopped what they were doing for a moment and looked up to see what was going on. And then it happened…the little boy sitting behind me looked at his mother and said, "did it run out of batteries?" I found his question to be both insightful and significant. Insightful because it's a glimpse into the perception young kids have regarding how things are powered in this world. Their toys, and virtually everything else they come into contact with, run on batteries…why not a bus? Significant because it's an indication that today's 6,7,8 year-olds are tomorrow's EV proponents. These are the people who will usher in a new EV generation.
Chew on that

I added some minced garlic & fresh grated ginger to the marinade. I wasn't sure what Japanese grounded chili was so I used about a teaspoon of Sambal Oelek chili paste when stir frying the meat.

It took several months for one physician to learn that she was a victim of medical identity theft. This realization occurred after patients reported that her name was on their Medicare Summary Notices although they had never seen her. A fraudulent clinical practice had enrolled in Medicare using her name without her knowledge. Another physician had retired from clinical practice but decided to work part-time. Nearly 2 years after sending out job applications, he was asked by Medicare to return more than $350 000 in overpayments made to a practice he had interviewed with but never joined. The Department of Treasury began to garnish his Social Security payments for unpaid debts.

A Rush of Wings (A Rush of Wings Series #1) (edition 2003)
by Kristen Heitzmann
Work details
A Rush of Wings by Kristen Heitzmann
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This Christian story had just enough draw to keep my interest and the ending was great but she held her secrets too long and it was slow going at times such that I skimmed some. In a panic, Noelle flees NY and ends up at Rick's Rocky Mountain horse ranch.
A well-executed Christian romance novel. I was very taken with the novel's main characters - Noelle and brothers Rick and Morgan Spencer. Each was compelling and believable in their own ways. Not much of the novel was a surprise, but getting there was an enjoyable journey.
Christian fiction, contemporary, romantic suspense, Colorado, New York
This story dealt with people you learned to love, even though they made mistakes, had problems and fought the truth. There is a tender romance story in this book, but it is to me, much more than a romantic fiction story , but a story of people searching for the truth, some searching in the wrong places and some searching in the right places, but who still fail to make the right desicions. But the encouraging part is that even when we fail or turn our backs on God, He is still faithful and will never turn His back on His own. I truly enjoyed the message behind this story, and how the author dealt with the age old question of why does God allow bad things to happen to good people.
Noelle St. Claire finds herself fleeing a danger that she can't quite remember all the details. She finds herself arriving at the Rocky Mountain horse ranch owned by Rick Spencer and his brother Morgan. Noelle is beautiful, very vulnerable and has secrets she just can't seem to trust anyone with. The two brothers, who are opposites in many ways, try to bring her out of her shell and help her, but Noelle has alot of fears and can't quite figure out if they are real or imagined. Both brothers have different ways of trying to help Noelle, but only one will truly win her heart. In the process though, will he also lose his "first love".
This was not one of those books that I couldn't put down until I read what would happen next. It wasn't a fast paced story, but by the end I realized how well this story was put together and how much I enjoyed growing along with these characters and when they felt their failures, I felt for them in a very real way. I look forward to reading more about one of the Spencer brothers in "The Still of Night".
A Rush of Wings by Kristen Heitzmann is a re-release of the book, originally published in 2003. The cover is new but the story is every bit as good as it was the first time I read it.
Noelle St. Clair is on the run. She has lost her memory and has no idea who or what she is fleeing from but she knows that there is danger and she must escape. In her flight, she leaves behind a loving but confused father and a frightened fiance. Her flight leads her from the pampered confines of a luxurious home, away from a doting father, and from an errant fiance to the small secluded horse ranch in the Rocky Mountains. It is here that she finds safety, respite, and refuge.
In her attempts to hide from a danger that she cannot identify, Noelle finds herself forming new relationships and friends of a totally different ilk than any she had ever known. Bit by bit, her memories return until the day that she is forced to face head-on the very source of her fears.
Kristen Heitzmann keeps the reader on pins and needles as she slowly reveals and unravels the tangled threads of Noelle's past. Just when you think you have it all figured out, another twist is revealed that makes you question all that you thought you knew and understood. Noelle slowly learns to trust, not only in her new-found friends, but she also learns to trust in a God who had been an utter stranger until Rick Spencer introduced Him to her through the Word.
I first read this book in April of 2004 and enjoyed it just as much when I read it again in December of 2010. Noelle's story is a story that tells of hope in the time of despair, peace in the time of turmoil, and safety in a time of peril. It was a pleasure to watch as Noelle grew from being afraid to trust anyone to learning to trust in both God and others. It was exciting to see how Noelle discovered the truths that are found in Psalms 91:2: "I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust," and also in Psalms 46:1: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." (KJV)

New York Gun Ban Faces Lawsuit
A Hamburg, NY attorney plans to challenge his state's newly-enacted assault weapons ban, not on Second Amendment grounds, but because he claims the law violates his Fifth Amendment rights.
"Can the government take what rightfully belongs to somebody, without due process, and without just compensation?," lawyer James Tresmond asks.
According to local television news outlet WGRZ, lawmakers took the the Fifth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which says a person shall not "be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation," into account when writing up the gun ban.
The legislation passed into law on Tuesday grandfathers in weapons and magazines holding more than seven bullets currently owned by New York residents. In the case of magazines, residents can still own them, but cannot put more than seven bullets at a time in them.
At a Tuesday press conference announcing the new gun law, Governor Cuomo said that "banning sales going forward, prior assault weapons should be registered just like you register a handgun," opening up the possibility of gun seizures.
Tresmond claims that more than 10,000 New Yorkers have contacted him via phone or e-mail about the lawsuit. He is now working with at least six other attorneys to get the lawsuit prepared.
Tresmond estimates it will take 3-4 weeks of preparing the suit before he files it, most likely in federal court.

Hello everyone! As of right now, I have my consultation scheduled with Dr. Ciardullo on the second of April, and I am already so extremely excited. After talking with the receptionist who was very patient with answering all of my questions, a realistic guess for surgery date is April 12th. After much pressure and about a year of pushing, research, etc... my parents have finally decided to let me get a rhinoplasty for cosmetic/body image reasons. Ever since puberty, I have never liked my nose because it just never seemed to fit. I like to think I have nice features, but the nose just doesn't fit... so I'm having it changed. :)
This website has helped me a lot, and has really calmed my nerves. Not to mention, Dr. Ciardullo seems to do some of the best work out there. Everything is very symmetrical, and very natural looking.
Stay tuned for updates every week or so until it gets closer to my surgery date, when you can expect about 1 update a day!

Howdy everyone. I am new to this site but have been hunting the Corpus area since I was a kid. This is my first season since getting out of the Army last year and I have had the wonderful chance to get a few of my buddies on their first ducks this year. I truly enjoy teaching people everything I know, even though my style is a little rough and I walk in everywhere unless my family feels giving lol, but I want to know if there is anyone in the Corpus area that wants to learn what I know or maybe can teach me a few things. I hunt pretty much every other day and have been in the field roughly 30+ days this season in between school, the holidays an my fiancé lol...so shoot me a PM or reply to this if you would like to except my invitation.

by David Ansel
"With just a custom-made yellow bike, a used bike trailer, and a few two-quart containers of homemade gumbo, David Ansel began peddling soup to his friends and neighbors in the close-knit community of Bouldin Creek in Austin, Texas. Many flat tires and gallons of soup later, his delivery route has grown from 17 soup subscribers, or "soupies," to more than 700 and counting.
In Slow and Difficult Soups, Ansel (aka the Soup Peddler) ladles out generous bowlfuls of some of the most delicious and lovingly seasoned soups you'll ever taste. This heart- and belly-warming illustrated memoir is an offbeat homage to the art, science, and joy of soup, offering a utopian vision of a community brought together through their love of spoon-licking comfort food. The Soup Peddler shares humorous stories about the eccentric folks who populate Bouldin Creek, along with classic and exotic creations like South Austin Chili, Smoked Tomato Bisque, Chompy-Chomp Black Bean Soup, and Bouillabaisse Marseillaise. A tast of simpler times in our modern fast-food nation, Slow and Difficult Soups is a rousing reminder of our basic need to connect to our food—and those who cook, deliver, and slurp it.
About the Author
The Soup Peddler is David Ansel, a sixth-generation Baltimorean Jew expatriate living in the liberal enclave of Austin, Texas. His transformation from software developer to yoga teacher to bicycle-pedaling purveyor of soup has attracted attention from such disparate media as the Christian Science Monitor and Punk Planet. His booming soup-delivery service has also been featured on the Food Network.

I finally made it to Texas. What a long trip. It was like the usual fun car rides because I was packed in between boxes in mom's car. Although I did get the body pillow which I was thankful for. Half way through Louisiana Buddy decided to quit riding shotgun and crawled back there with me. Not enough space!! So when we stopped to tinkle at the Texas state line, my front legs had fallen asleep and I toppled out of the car, BOL. We got there very late after midnight, I wanted to play mom wanted to sleep--I was energized and ready to go after sleeping 9 hours straight. The next several days I was confused, not about peeing all over yard, but when my donut pillow, kennel, 17 tennis balls, 23 stuffed animals, 2 Frisbees, and 2 indestructible balls showed up things were back to normal as far as I was concerned.
Just felt the need to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! Big changes are about to occur. Buddy and I are moving to Texas, yee haw!! This is very exciting. One our new house is 3x times as big, our new yard is a whole lot bigger too. The coolest thing is there is a dog park 20 min away, which is better than no dog park at all. Mommy says the mesquitos aren't as bad like they are here. We're hoping for a change in my allergies too. Probably lots of funny new photos to come soon!
Next week we are going home to the grandpas and grandmas, hooray!! They like us more than mom, BOL! There is dog park there too, and I get see my cousin Kaya, she moved to New Jersey, but we get to bark on the phone at each other once a week--keepin in touch. Off to Petsmart with Mommy, yay!
Ack! I've been TAGGED by Webster (441532 ) so now I have to get my game on! What a blast... here are the rules:
Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Dogs who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 dogs to tag and list their names. Don't forget to bark them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your Diary, or, send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been Tagged!
So here are 7 facts about me:
1 - I'm overly needy.
2 - I play frisbee atleast 6 times a day, and jump in the air everytime, even though I am tall enough to catch it standing on the ground.
3 - When I take walks it is necessary to trample and pee on everyone's yard.
4 - My nickname the Ghost comes from the fact I am very good about sneaking up on people, turn around and poof there I am--then I'm gone!
5 - I love to eat yogurt more than anything!
6 - I have 198 spots.
7 - I believe children need to be herded.
Now its time for you dogs to TAG, get busy!

Canada's Ivey purchasing index sinks in December
TORONTO (Reuters) - Purchasing activity in Canada contracted sharply and unexpectedly in December, the second straight dismal monthly performance, according to Ivey Purchasing Managers Index data released on Tuesday.
The seasonally adjusted index fell to 46.3 from 53.7 in November, contrary to analysts' expectations for a rise 54.5. A figure below 50 shows a decrease in purchasing activity.

About That "Sweet Spot"
There are two major selling points that seem to be common to nearly every golf club. One, look how far it goes. And two, look at how big the sweet spot is. I talk often enough about the distance emphasis that I believe is ruining the game, not just in general, but for too many golfers. But today, let's talk about what makes a golf club forgiving, and dissect that notion of a "sweet spot".
It's indisputable that moving mass away from the center of impact on a golf club will allow that club to reduce the amount of twisting and energy loss on off-center hits. That's why we saw the invention of perimeter-weighted irons 40 years ago, the introduction of metal woods in the 1980s, oversized metal woods a few years later, then titanium heads that were even larger, to the current limit of 460 ccs that nearly all drivers push.
But another indisputable fact is that each golf club has a single "sweet spot" that delivers the optimum transfer of energy to a golf ball. And that spot is small. Very small. As you make impact away from that spot, you will experience a less efficient transfer of energy. This is simple physics that cannot be denied or argued. But how much energy loss are we talking? I've been told over and over that a 1/2" miss on a modern driver will cost the typical golfer as much as 7-9% in yardage delivered. A 3/4" miss increases that to 12-15% loss. Think about that. If your very best drives...those few that are tagged right on the sweet spot...go 250 yards, then your 1/2" misses are costing you 15-20 yards!
All of us have experienced it, but not often enough. You catch a drive "just right" and it rockets out there...15-20 yards past where your typical drive goes on that hole. Wow. What a feeling! "I really caught that one". Well, you didn't just miraculously make a much better golf swing than usual. You didn't just generate 10% more clubhead speed than you normally do. What happened is that you just connected with the ball on that single, very small, perfect sweet spot that every driver has. So what if you focused your energy and money on learning how to do that more often, rather than thinking you can "buy" more clubhead speed? Or that some magic elixir is out there in the driver rack somewhere?
Here's something to try the next time you go out. Swing your driver at about 85% of your normal swing speed. It won't actually go down by more than 3-4%, but you'll feel much more in control. And you'll find that elusive little sweet spot more frequently. And your drives will be longer than ever.
And here's an interesting illustration of the negative side of what happens when we make drivers so big. Take a standard hammer and two large nails. Drive one into a board like you normally would, and the drive the other holding the hammer so you are hitting the nail with the side of the head. Same hammer. Same amount of mass. But watch how much more efficient the hammer is when the mass is concentrated right behind the percussion point, rather than spread out on either side.
And that's your golf physics lesson for today.

Banker85 says:
Thank you professor Wedge guy. I will take 225 and fairway over 250 and not fairway any day of the week. Now if my ego will? thats up to him.
legitimatebeef says:
Another good topic TWG. Lately so much talk is about how big of a sweet spot but we must not forget about the sweetness of that spot. In my irons I traded some size for sweetness and ultimately it has made me a better ball striker.
Matt McGee says:
Excellent article. I love the physics of the game.
It explains most of the reason why I'm going back to blades from cavity backs, also. The blades aren't as forgiving, and I want less forgiveness for my less-than-perfect swings.
Anti-Mulligan says:
I agree completely on this article. I have noticed not only does it help hitting the sweet spot but also straightens out your ball flight because it is a short club and easier to square. The tough part is on who you are playing with. If you are consistently getting smoked by your playing partners it is tough to choke down and take a shorter drive in the fairway. I know it is mental and shouldn't matter as long you score the way you want but it is mentally tough to not want to hit the ball a long way and take the control shot.
Duke of Hazards says:
I guess I have no frame of reference since I've been playing with game improvement clubs since I started, but my current equipment doesn't give me more than a hint of feedback on off center strikes. I only know from my ball flight if I've struck it well, and only if it's an extremely badly struck shot way out on the toe that I 'feel' any difference. I want some of this sweetness that I've been hearing about and am saving up for new clubs that offer more tactile response. Mizuno, I'm looking at you.
wedgeguy says:
Duke, might I suggest starting with the short end of your set and playing our SCOR4161 precision scoring clubs. We make all lofts over 40 degrees, and can bring precision, control and unmatched feel to your 'money clubs' first.
sowersb says:
Just find an old persimmon driver that we played in the 60s and put it up side-by-side to the 460 cc driver. The old persimmon looks like a 5 wood compared to todays metal clubs. I have always be an advicate of "there is only one real sweet spot" no matter how big you make the club. Like you said wedgeguy...if people would concentrate more on hitting the all illusive sweet spot instead of trying to bomb every shot they would see a marked improvement in their distance and accuracy! Those off hit shots also produce the "gear effect" that will cause balls to fly all over the place!
jpjeffery says:
Right now I just want to hit the ball straight.
Without my back hurting.
mlf16507 says:
It is a lot tougher to hit a 46" or 47" driver on the sweetspot than a 44" Maybe that is why the tour average is 441/2". If the players with the best swings in the world use a shorter driver, maybe you should too.
onedollarwed says:
Great to hear this again and again. I often remark that I can pick up pretty much any club from any era and make huge hits. This is the reason. Besides the precision with the sweet spot, reacting to the shaft flex and head weight will tell you how to time the swing. And there you have it - crush!
phraynck says:
A older guy I just played in a tournament with had a great idea related to this. He had a little sharpie with him and he put a dot on the clubface where he wanted to hit it and thought was his sweet spot. I'll be damned if he wasn't remarking that sucker after almost every drive. If he didn't hit it well he would just show you the face of his driver and that fresh mark was still there. He said he grew up with drivers that had screws in the face and you always wanted to hit it "on the screw". He marked his drivers to simulate that mentality.
SteveS says:
@phraynck - I just did something similar about 2 months ago. I sent an email to Adams golf and asked where on the driver face was the hot spot. I got a reply and marked my clubface with a little black "X" with a sharpie. I then got some impact tape and headed to the range. I also got some of those step tees that you place in the ground at the same height everytime; I figured one less thing that I didn't have to guess at. I started going thru a setup routine; distance from ball; handle position, driver face open,square, straight. I spent 3 different days at about 2 hours per day hitting balls; adjusting setup; but most importantly validating my routine. Took it to the course and it's been working. I've added 15-20 yds to my drives. The impact tape is great. On some occasions, when I paly a quick nine by myself, I'll play with the tape on the driver;

The Bald Eagle is Back in New York
State environmental officials say New York's bald eagle population may be at its highest level since efforts to restore it began more than 30 years ago.
The highest winter count was in 2008, with 573 bald eagles spotted. The Department of Environmental Conservation's preliminary results for 2010 indicate that sightings may exceed that number.
In 1975, the state was able to document only one unproductive pair of bald eagles after years of habitat loss, pesticide contamination and hunting. In 2009, 173 breeding pairs raised 223 young.
Eagles from Canada winter in New York. During a January 2010 survey, 459 were spotted, including 101 along the St. Lawrence River and 277 in the Hudson River and Delaware River basins.

Charity sporting events offer incentives to get fit
By Dorene Internicola
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Along with the usual reasons for losing weight, like fitting into a bikini and improving health, fitness experts say raising money for a good cause is another incentive for people to get in shape.
Entering a charity run in memory of a loved one or a bicycle ride for a worthy cause has pushed many couch potatoes from their sedentary lifestyle on to the path of fitness.
Kelly Flynn, running coach for Team In Training, a charity sports endurance program from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society, has been teaching novice runners to tackle the Boson Marathon since 2005.
"The people who've never run before and have a motivation, like a loved one, are the easiest people to coach," said Flynn, a 40-year-old Boston-based attorney. "They stick it out. And when they cross the finish line, they've become running junkies."
Flynn, a soccer and softball player in her teenage years, said it was the death of a high school friend from lymphoma that inspired her to become a running coach for charity.
"I saw a flyer (from Team in Training) and went, on a lark," she said. "His death was my catalyst."
Team in Training, which is 25 years old, has raised more than $1.4 billion, with more than 600,000 people from across the country taking part in different endurance events to raise money for Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.
Flynn, whose 200-strong team soon will start training for 2014, has helped to train more than 800 Boston marathoners and her teams have raised over $4 million. Continued...
