I too can
remember OC71s. You are not alone
I recently installed Microsoft Defender and its
evidently working fine but it is generating sometimes up to a dozen Restore Points every day. What
gives? This must be pointlessly absorbing lots of disc space.
A. Good to hear from another old-timer, and in case
anyone is wondering the OC71 was an early germanium transistor, familiar to
electronics hobbyists in the 60s and 70s. Ah, those were the days; you could
build just about anything with a few OC71s from amplifiers to metal detectors.
That reminds me I keep meaning to put together some web pages on electronics
projects, Ive got some really great gadgets in my files for anyone who still
knows how to use a soldering iron
But back to Defender and you are not a lone, quite a
few people have noticed this behaviour. In some cases it seems to have happened
following the installation of IE7. Defender is still in its Beta testing phase
and Microsoft havent said much, at least not publicly, so theres a suspicion
its a bug and unlikely to be fixed until the next release of the Defender
engine, and theres no telling when that will be. You neednt worry too much
about wasting disc space, you can control the amount used by going to System
Properties (Winkey + Break, select System Restore tab, click Settings button)
and old RPs are simply overwritten. As far as I can see its doing no harm but
if you want to do something about it there is a Registry fix, which you try
entirely at your own risk (and assuming you know what you are doing!).
Open the Registry editor and make your way to:
Defender/Scan/, create a new REG-DWORD Key called DisableRestorePoint and set
it to True.
Download Monitor for Windows 98
Hello Rick, my broadband contract limits me to 2GBs
worth of downloads a month I would like to check my monthly usage. Can you recommend any freeware that will do
this on Windows 98?
Bryan Lewis
A. This question pops up a
lot and illustrates the fact that a lot of broadband users make the mistake of
trying to save a few bob by opting for a capped broadband package. Whilst
its true they suit some people I suspect a lot of users quickly regret having
a limit on their downloads, and worry about the cost of they stray over top.
There are plenty of download monitors to choose from but the Tautology Bandwidth Meter
is one of the few Im aware of that will definitely work with Windows 98 (and
2000 and XP) and it provides the user with a lot of information about their
connection, plus the all important logs and reports, so you can keep an eye on
your usage.
are my Firefox Bookmarks?
Rick, I have recently started using Mozilla Firefox. When electing to bookmark
a page, the Bookmarks folder is the default save location. Having saved some
pages in the Bookmarks folder, I now cannot find them or a folder named
Bookmarks. I'm obviously doing something wrong or looking in the wrong place.
How do I find them?
I am a tad confused because a drop-down list of your Bookmarks should appear
when you click Bookmarks on the menu Toolbar. They can also be permanently
displayed in a side window by pressing Ctrl + B. Normally there is no need to
worry about the whereabouts of Firefoxs Bookmarks folder but for the record
theyre stored as an HTML file (bookmarks.html), which you will find in:
and Settings\<yourname>\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\default
case its not there, and there is a bug that can make the bookmarks and
bookmarks toolbar disappear, you will find a set of backups in the same
location, in a folder called bookmarkbackups. To reinstate them simply rename
one of the backups bookmarks.html and copy it into the default Profiles
Firefox has a very good
assortment of bookmark tools and this is on the Bookmarks list, just click
Manage Bookmarks. In addition to numerous sorting options theres a set of
Import/Export functions on the File menu, for transferring or copying your bookmarks to another folder.
Dear Rick, I'm trying to convert many
files from MS Works version 2.0a (in Windows 3.1) to MS Word 2003 Service
Pack 2. I was unsuccessful at finding a tool on your site that would
convert these files. I would appreciate it if you would let me
know if such a utility exists.
There are so many different types of file converters, dealing with an almost
limitless permutation of file formats that I would need to start a new website
to cope with them all (now theres a thought
Fortunately your conversion
problem shouldnt be too difficult to solve, and it will be a lot easier if you
still have the Works installation disc. The trick is to install and run the
program on a PC then open the files you want to convert and export or save them
in a format that can be easily read by Word 2003, like plain text (.txt) or
rich text format (.rtf). Failing that
there are a number of commercial programs worth investigating, have a look at ABC Amber Text
Converter, which I suspect will do the job, though the compatibility list
only goes back to Works 3. If anyone has some specific advice or
recommendations for reading or converting Works 2.00a files Ill be happy to
pass them on.
Alarm, Alarming CLI Message
Zone Alarm keeps telling me that a CLI is trying to access the Internet.
Whether I confirm or deny, nothing seems to change. I have XP. Should I worry?
A. CLI or Command
Line Interface is a DOS-like text based set of instructions that programs use
to communicate or control other programs or hardware devices. More information
would have been useful but my guess is this is evidence of a something on your
PC trying to access the Internet to check for updates and so on. Theres also a
small possibility it could be a virus or malware, but providing your anti-virus
scanner is up to date, and you regularly scan your PC with something like AdAware,
Defender or Spybot the chances of infection are low. The offending item can
probably be found on the Startup list (type msconfig in Run in the Start
menu). Deselect anything you are not sure of reboot and see if the message
persists. Many of the deslected items can be left that way, most of them are
just wasting resources but to be on the safe side you can check the items on
the Startup menu against the list on
the Sysinfo website.
Rick, further to the recent BootLog query, concerning the failure to open
pictures in emails. I have a similar problem; I have received a number of
emails containing pictures, which I then forwarded to friends. They received
the emails ok but the pictures were empty boxes containing a red X. The
pictures were contained within the email and not attachments. I would be
grateful for any advice on this matter.
A. The red X or placeholder
where the picture should be is normally due to a security setting in OE -- at
the recipients end -- which prevents the picture being displayed in case it
contains malicious code. The way to switch that off is to go to Tools >
Options, select the Security tab and make sure that Do not allow attachments
to be saved
and Block images and other external content
are both
unchecked. As for the image appearing in the body of the email, thats down to
you. Go to Tools > Options and click the Send tab, then the HTML settings
button and uncheck the item Send pictures with messages.
Dear Boot Log, I have a laptop and it is loaded with Windows XP Pro. I can
log in and get to Administrator level, and then I am asked for a password, I
cannot remember it. At this point I am stuck. The program allows me to go no
further and turn off is the only function available. Is there a method of
finding the missing password and gaining entry into the machine and its
Albert Smith.
This is a hardy perennial and one weve dealt with before but since several readers
have written in with this one recently, following what appears to be a minor
outbreak of amnesia, well run through some of the steps you can take.
first, if you have set a password for Windows XP for heavens sake write it
down somewhere and keep it in a safe place. You dont have to commit the actual
password to paper, devise a simple code or a few words that will help jog your
memory. Alternatively follow the steps in Windows Help (keyword search Password
Reset) to create a Password Recovery disc.
Password protection is fairly strong and the techniques used to recover or
reset a lost password all involve a certain amount risk (but not too much
) so
before you start make sure you try every possible combination you can think of.
You should also make backups of all irreplaceable files, assuming that you can
still log in as a Guest or another user, and have access to your files.
If you dont mind paying for
your forgetfulness then there are plenty of online services that will help you
recover your password. Try Password-
Reset, which involves downloading a small utility to create a bootable
disc. It displays your old password and lets you change it to something more
memorable; this costs $20. The free alternative is to download a compact
version of the Linux operating system called Astrumi,
which you also copy to disc and use to boot your PC, this includes a password
reset utility called nt-pass
Rick, Is it possible to use my digital camera as a webcam? I have a cheap web
cam but the images are too fuzzy.
A. It depends. This feature
is built into a fair few digital still cameras (DSC), using the USB link cable
-- the one used to transfer images to the PC -- as a direct video feed. If
yours has this feature it will be explained in the manual. Otherwise it may be
possible to jury-rig something, if your DSC has a video output, and a live
image can be displayed on a TV screen or video monitor, in which case you will
need to add a video input adaptor to your PC. These come in the form of USB
module, or an input on a video card. However, although the results are likely
to be a lot better than your current setup, I suspect it will be easier and
cheaper to invest in a better quality webcam.
Rick, my ISP has changed recently; I now have a new Home page -- no problem
there -- but something else has happened. I do not know the real purpose of the
black rectangle in the top right corner with the Windows icon; I have always
assumed that when the logo spins something was going on and you are supposed to
wait until it finished moving.
the change quite frequently the world just doesn't stop turning. Getting
fidgety I found I could still email and use the Internet and when I went back
to the home page there it was, still spinning. Please can you tell me what the
heck it is? I asked a "Guru"
and got a brush off, told what does it matter?
Perhaps it does though!
like your new set ups very straightforward and I always find something of
interest. Many thanks.
Glad you like the changes, and stay tuned for more developments. The spinning
or animated log is know as a Throbber in the trade and its original purpose
was to let you know that data was being transferred -- web page loading, email
being sent or received and so on. It had some meaning in past when we were all
using slow dial-up connections but these days its little more than a
decoration, or advertising opportunity, as in your case, when the standard
Windows logo is replaced with one from an ISP or manufacturer.
The point is the information
you see on most web pages doesnt just come from one site anymore, once the
main part of the page has loaded bits and pieces can still be coming in from
other sources -- animated ads, cookies, JavaScript, and this can go on for some
time, especially if the secondary servers are busy, so although the page is
being displayed data is still being exchanged, so the Throbber keeps on
throbbing. Just ignore it, but if it offends you there are ways and means of
creating your own, or choosing from ready-made ones using a trialware utility
like Theme Manager.
can I track down the source of a Joe Jobbing attack? Someone is sending
emails using random addresses at my own domain and deliberately to non-existent
email addresses so that I receive numerous failed mail delivery reports. It is
a complete waste of time of course and difficult to filter out particularly as
I have a catchall email account for the particular domain.
have looked at the incoming mails but they do not seem to have any information
/ headers that would indicate the route.
My email provider says they can do nothing. Apart from that should we
not be pressing for it to be made illegal or impossible to send mails from
domains owned by others?
Joe Jobbing attacks have been around for years, and now seem to be on the
increase. Its usually malicious, designed to bring down your website by
blocking it with unwanted, in what is known as a Denial of Service attack. At
the same time it can cripple you email system, flooding it with fake spam and
returned messages, though it sounds as though you have got off quite lightly.
Theres are several possibilities; someone may be targeting your business, or
perhaps the attack has been clumsily implemented and your domain name is close
to that of the real victim, and you are getting the fallout. If you suspect
that you are the intended victim, and you know who is responsible then you
should alert the police, otherwise all you can do is monitor the email headers,
to see if theres any sort of patterns in the Return Path data (right-click
email, select Properties then the Details tab).
However, I fear that theyll
yield little or no useful information, as the messages are almost certainly coming
from hijacked PC and spoofed addresses.
Stopping these messages if it is a random attack can
be incredibly difficult as they mostly sent from abroad, in countries where what
little legislation exists, is difficult if not impossible to enforce. It is quite
possible the messages will eventually peter out, and you should be able to filter
out the majority of them using your email programs Rules to only let through
specific names in the 'To' line. Otherwise a decent Spam Filter should be able to
pre-sort your messages and automatically delete the crud before it gets
anywhere near your PC.
receive a regular weekly newsletter from our Head Office. For the first
time ever I have not been able to open the column of pictures on the right of
the page due to annoying little boxes with a red x. I know what they are
for, and have been into both Outlook tools, options etc. to allow pictures to
be shown, as indeed they are in any of my other messages. I have checked
the permissions, privacy etc. in IE 6 and every other conceivable thing I
can think of. There was no problem with last weeks edition of same
Newsletter. Any ideas as to why this particular message is causing
trouble? I am a fairly experienced computer user but this has me
beat! Thanks for any help you can give.
A. As Mr Sherlock Holmes once pointed out, ...when you have eliminated
the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. In
your case, since you have done just about everything that I would have
suggested all that remains is the probability that the email itself is faulty.
The red X or Placeholder indicates that the image wasnt correctly loaded
into the message by whoever sent it. If the next edition of the email displays
as normal thats your explanation, if you cant wait why not ask Head Office if
there was a problem, or ask a colleague if they received their newsletter
Rick, my bank is now going to offer its online customers a free copy of
F-Secure in an effort to improve security. As a reader of your articles I
already use products such as AVG, Zone Alarm and AdAware. Will F-secure be
compatible with these products if I install this as well? If there were to be a
conflict would you advise switching or remaining with the defences I have?
A. Obviously this kind of
proactive stance on security is to be encouraged. F-Secure software is very
good indeed and any of your Banks customers, foolish enough to be without
antivirus protection, would be well advised to take up the offer. However,
unless you are having problems with your present setup then I think you are
pretty well protected.
It is not a good idea to install two antivirus programs
on your PC; these applications contain signature libraries, which are
segments of dormant virus code, and there is a very good chance that one AV
program will flag up virus alerts over the other ones signatures. By all means
switch, but uninstall AVG first. Similarly, you only want one Firewall on your
PC and Zone Alarm does a very good job, Remember the old maxim, if it aint
broke, why fix it? By the way, there are usually no problems running two or
more Malware cleaners, in fact I use three, AdAware,
Spybot and Windows Defender, and theyre all free!
Rick, first
of all, congratulations on your Bootlog site, which I have been using as my
home page since I found it! I find the
tips most interesting and extremely useful and so I wonder if you could solve a
couple of my problems?
have a Laptop and a PC on a home network and have no problem accessing the
Internet on either. However, if I retrieve my emails on one computer they dont
appear on the other. Is this normal or is there a remedy, as I would like them
to appear on both?
second problem is that my mouse-pad doesnt work. I usually use a remote mouse
in any case so its not a major problem but it would be nice if I could use
either method of navigation!
The email problem is simple to fix and its caused by both PCs being set to
download incoming messages from the server. This is a default setting for
Outlook Express so the first PC to connect will empty the mailbox. The simplest
thing to do is switch this off on one PC. The only point to watch out for it
that it will only pickup new messages that havent been downloaded by the other
PC. The alternative is to leave all incoming messages on your ISPs server
computer, so they are available to both PCs, all of the time. Either way the
thing to do is open OE then go to Tools > Accounts, highlight your
Account(s) click Properties, and then select the Advanced tab. On one or both
PCs deselect Leave a copy of message
on server option at the bottom on the other PC. If you set both PCs this way
you will need to set the Remove from Server option to automatically delete
old messages after a preset period.
didnt give me much to go on with the touch pad but in most cases its down to
a configuration setting or faulty driver. Check to see if theres a touch pad
utility in All Programs or Control Panel, this might have an enable/disable
switch, or something that turns it off when you plug in a normal mouse. The
touch pad utility should launch automatically with Windows so its worth looking
at the Startup list (type msconfig in Run on the Start menu). Try also
re-installing the driver, which should be included on one of the setup discs
that came with your computer. Otherwise it may be a hardware problem, in which
case it will need to be seen to by an expert.
Rick, last week a sub window appeared telling me that an updated version of
Microsoft AntiSpyware - the very competent
anti-malware software that I downloaded when you first mentioned
it - was available for download. I downloaded, and got Windows Defender
to update for new definitions does not appear to work. Also, I did receive an
automatic Windows Defender update, but was told that my device did not
recognise it, so that it could not be installed.
this one of those all too frequent MS launches of defective new software, which
will work at some later stage?
Windows Defender is Windows AntiSpyware, its essentially the same program but
with a new name and a few cosmetic tweaks. Normally the transition from
AntiSpyware to Defender should go smoothly but in your case it seems to have
got itself hung up so the easiest thing to do is uninstall everything and start
again. Got to Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel and see if AntiSpyware is
still there, if so remove it, if not locate Windows Defender and remove that
then go back to the Defender website and start over.
Do I Reinstall My System?
Hi Rick, I
have my Windows system up to date, I have all of your tweaks loaded; my
broadband is ok, so how can I save it all if I have reinstall? I do have a CD
Writer. I am new to all this so please make it basic.
It didnt use to be so bad in the early days, an hour or so spent re-installing
Windows then a couple of office apps and youre back in business. These days we
tend to load a lot more software on our PCs, not to mention all of the little
utilities and tools, then there are all of the preferences and customisations
and on top of that you have tens and quite possibly hundreds of gigabytes of
data to worry about. With the best will in the world theres no way you can
back up more than a fraction of it on a CD-R and even DVDs, with nearly 5Gb to
play with, arent going to make much of a dent in the data stored on a 200Gb
I gave up some time ago
trying to backup anything more than my daily WP output of documents and web
stuff on CDR but Im really not worried about a total HDD failure and I can be
back up working again in less than five minutes, with minimal disruption. My
solution is a whole disc mirror or clone, with a weekly incremental backup to
keep it up to date. Hard drives are ridiculously cheap, especially when you
compare it to the cost of not being able to work, or lost data, so I suggest
that you install a second slave drive, clone your system (Boot Camp 352) and
use a backup utility (the one built into Windows is fine -- see Boot Camp 376)
to keep it up to date.
Rick, I wonder if you have come across the following problem or can offer any
advice? Each
day our BT broadband shuts down between 9 and 10 pm and we cannot use it until
next morning. I have spent over a week talking to various operators at the BT
helpdesk in India but I am getting nowhere.
have changed filters, unplugged the Sky box, downgraded back to IE6 but all to
no avail. BT say there is no line fault. We are getting desperate because we
cannot use our broadband and cannot find anyone in the organisation who can
help us. Our contract is only 6 months into its 12-month run and therefore we
cannot change suppliers. Any help/advice would be gratefully received.
BT comes in for a lot of stick, some of it deserved, but I dont think they are
responsible for disconnecting you at such precise times and intervals. You have
carried out all of the standard checks, except one, and thats to change the
modem cable. Yes, I know it seems unlikely but I would do it all the same, and
make sure its no more than a metre or so long, better yet buy a new one, rated
for ADSL. Old cables, especially long ones can have poor or intermittent
contacts and be susceptible to interference.
The regularity of the cut-off
strikes me as being very relevant. Are there any scheduled operations on the PC
timed to happen at 9pm, a backup program maybe. Can you connect using another
PC that would either eliminate or point to the PC being responsible? Are there
any other devices attached to the phone line that could be trying to use the
connection. The Sky box would be high on my list of suspected but you say
youve tried unplugging that; how about a fax machine, emailer, answering
machine, something exotic, maybe, like a home automation system, remote utility
meter reader? Disconnect the lot. Are there any other appliances in your home
that switch on at 9pm, a central heating boiler for example? Let me know how you get on, and if anyone
has any bright ideas please let me know and Ill pass it on.
for about a month I have been getting an unwanted dialogue box appear about 5 minutes
after boot up (XP Home, SP2). The title
is "Microsoft Outlook". The
text in the box
is "Either there is no default mail client or the current mail client
cannot fulfil
the message request
is a single (OK) button; on pressing this the box disappears apparently
harmlessly. I use Outlook Express, Spybot and Ad-Aware find nothing amiss. Recent changes include installation of
Norton Internet Security 2006, Adobe PDF Reader 7 and Canon's digital camera
suite. There is nothing obviously suspicious in the start-up list (though it
is amazingly extensive!). Any ideas or suggestions on how to trace the
originator of the dialogue box?
A. This error message is usually caused by a corrupt
Registry key and it happens when a program other than Outlook tries to retrieve
information from the Registry. To make it disappear you are going to have to
delve into the Registry, and although I caution against doing it if you are an
absolute novice, provided you take a few simple precautions, like setting a
System Restore Checkpoint, before you begin. The exact procedure is outlined in
Microsoft Knowledgebase article 813745. As for the Start
Up list, have a look at Boot Camps 355 to 358 XP Tuning Tips, for some
pointers on thinning out all of the unnecessary programs and Services that
start with Windows.
Rick, I have just purchased a Dell Inspiron Laptop, and I have a car adapter
from my previous laptop, which was a Tiny. The Specs of the car adapter are:
Input 11.5-16V=6.3A, Output 19V, 3.16A. The Computer Specs show: Input 19V,
3.16A. Can you please advise me if I can safely use the car adapter with this
Possibly, maybe, but I definitely wouldnt try it. To begin with there could be
differences in the wiring of the power plug, assuming that it fits the socket. If the polarity is reversed
for your Dell laptop theres no telling how much damage it could do. Without
testing the adaptor on load theres no way of knowing how high the output
voltage could go, and if it does zap your laptop, and its still under
warranty, you wouldnt have a leg to stand on. My advice is dont do it, it
might well work but its just not worth the risk, car adaptors cost a great
deal less than a trip to the repairers!
Rick, I have a Dell D400 laptop and connect to the Internet through a Wi-Fi
router. Can I connect another computer (no Wi Fi adaptor) through the RJ45
connector, to share the Internet? Is it possible and will I need any extra
software?Florin Miltran
A. The short answers are yes and no. Providing the other PC is using
Windows XP all you have to do is plug it in, using a normal or straight LAN
cable between it and the router. XP might try to configure itself, in which
case just follow the prompts, otherwise run the Network Connection Wizard,
which you will find in Control Panel. If you want to connect an older (Windows
9x) PC by cable to a Wi-Fi router have a look at Boot Camps 387 to 391 on
wireless networking
Rick, for the past couple of weeks everything on the desktop has been
"ghosting" - all the icons and the mouse pointer and hourglass. I
can't account for this, and whilst it is not causing any problems, nevertheless
it is an irritation. I tried System Restore, going back about one month, but
this didn't cure it. Have you an explanation, please, and if so how do I
rectify the problem?
There are three things to check, the monitor, the video adaptor and Windows settings.
If you have access to another monitor try plugging that in and see if it makes
a difference, if so its time for a new one. There are a number of things in
Windows that can affect the display so switch off all of the desktop display
gimmicks by pressing Winkey + Break (or right-click My Computer and select
Properties) to bring up the System Properties dialogue box. Click the Advanced
tab then click the Settings button under Performance and either deselect
everything (make a note of whats checked in case this isnt responsible), or
check Adjust for Best Performance.
If that doesnt make a difference then
its the video adaptor. This may have its own set of adjustments, if so youll
find it by right-clicking the desktop, click Properties and the Display
Properties dialogue opens. Select the Settings tab and click the Advanced
buttons; the options vary so check to see if theres anything related to
display performance. Its possible theres a driver problem, try updating it by
visiting the manufacturers website, after that Im afraid the only thing left
is the video adaptor, which may be faulty.
Rick, I understand MS support for Windows ME will stop in July. I wish to
continue using it and I am concerned that if in the future I may need to
reinstall the OS how will I obtain all the updates that have already been issued.
Will the existing updates continue to be available or is there some way I can
keep a backup of all the updates up to the July 2006 deadline?
A. Good point, but I dont
think you need to worry too much as although there will be no new security
updates after the 11th of July 2006, all of the ones published to date should
still be available from the MS archives for at least another year.
Nevertheless, it might be a good idea to plan ahead and one of the easiest ways
to protect yourself, assuming that your ME installation is working properly and you have good anti-virus and malware protection plus a strong Firewall, is
to 'clone the system, preferably onto a second backup drive. That way if you
suffer a catastrophic crash you can be up and running in as long as it takes to
switch the cables on the back of the drives. Drive cloning is easy, and drives
are really cheap -- 120Gb models are selling on line for less than £50! Take a
look at the simple to follow tutorial in Boot Camp 352

Eliminating the Use of Mercury Manometers in the Dairy Industry
Process Background
Dairyland Equipment Services sells, installs and services milking systems for dairy farmers within a 60 mile radius of Plainview, Minnesota.The Mercury Manometer Replacement Projecta manometer changeout program for dairy farmers throughout the statereplaced 1,353 manometers with a non-mercury gauge and removed 1,134 pounds of potentially hazardous mercury from dairy farms and the environment.
Milking systems have vacuum lines that remove and transport milk from cows udders to a bulk tank. As part of this system, vacuum gauges measure pressure in the vacuum line. By monitoring the gauges, farmers can be alerted to large pressure fluctuations in the vacuum line, which can result in health problems for the cows or indicate operational inefficiencies.
Mercury manometers are one type of vacuum gauge used in milking systems. Each gauge has a U-shaped plastic tube containing 0.781 pounds of mercury. The mercury in these manometers can become contaminated with water, milk, dirt and cleaning chemicals. Also, the plastic mercury-containing tube can become discolored and cloudy. These problems make the manometers difficult to read accurately. Once this occurs, Dairyland must repair or replace the manometers and manage the waste mercury.
After removing contaminated mercury manometers from the farm, service technicians return to the shop and drained the mercury into a sealed storage container. When Dairyland accumulated up to 25 pounds of mercury, it contacted its county solid waste officer for assistance transporting the mercury to a recycling company.
Incentives for Change
Dairyland initially contacted the Wabasha County solid waste officer in 1994 to find out how to dispose of 25 pounds of mercury it had accumulated from servicing mercury manometers.
After learning about the need for proper mercury management, Dairyland was concerned about the potential for mercury spills when service technicians filled new manometers with mercury, and about the collection, storage and disposal of used mercury.
Because Dairyland was interested in reducing future disposal costs and liability associated with mercury, it began replacing contaminated mercury manometers with bourdon (spring) gaugesa nonmercury-containing alternative.
Mercury is a toxin that has been associated with nervous system disorders. When mercury enters lakes and streams, it can build up in the tissue of fish and result in high concentrations. Minnesota issues advisories cautioning people to limit how much fish they eat from waters in the state.
Intern Activities
Under the direction of Dairyland and Wabasha County, the MnTAP intern evaluated the use of mercury manometers in Minnesotas dairy industry and researched alternative vacuum gauges. The intern conducted a survey of 85 dairy equipment dealers to 1) determine which dealers offer mercury manometers, and 2) estimate the amount of mercury present on dairy farms and at equipment dealerships.
Volume of Mercury
Responses from the equipment dealers survey indicated that nearly 20 percent of all Minnesota dairy farms2,357 farmshad mercury manometers. These manometers contained a total of about 1,825 pounds of mercury. An additional 205 pounds of mercury were in storage or in use at dairy equipment dealerships. In 1994 alone, Dairyland accumulated 15 pounds of waste mercury for recycling.
Alternative Gauges
Based on current dairy industry standards for vacuum gauges, accuracy, durability and cost, the intern found that bourdon liquid-filled gauges and digital gauges were acceptable alternatives to mercury manometers.
Bourdon liquid-filled gauges. The intern determined that the bourdon gauges need to be stainless steel and filled with oil. Stainless steel will prevent corrosion by contaminants, and oil dampens vibrations resulting in smaller needle fluctuations and greater accuracy. The oil also lubricates the moving mechanical parts, which reduces wear. Similar gauges are currently used in the dairy industry and retail costs are comparable to that of mercury manometers.
Digital gauges. Digital gauges give more precise readings and have a higher degree of accuracy than mercury or bourdon gauges. Unlike other gauges, digital gauges require a power source. Because the gauges are in use at least 35 hours per week, the intern suggested that the gauges be powered by the same source as the milking system so they can be turned on and off with the system. A few digital gauges were in the price range of mercury manometers.
Equipment manufacturers recommend that service technicians use a bourdon gauge or digital gauge to test the milking systems they are servicing. The gauges used in the field should be calibrated with a mercury manometer kept at the shop.
Dairyland plans to continue replacing contaminated mercury manometers with nonmercury-containing gauges to help reduce the amount of mercury on Minnesota farms.
With support form a Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources grant, the Minnesota Department of Agriculture conducted the Mercury Manometer Replacement Project. The manometer changeout program for dairy farmers throughout the state replaced 1,353 manometers with a nonmercury gauge and removed 1,134 pounds of mercury.
Management Options
The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) recommends the following management options when replacing mercury manometers.
- Take mercury and mercury manometers to a mercury recycling facility or arrange with a waste hauler to take them to a recycling facility. A sample list of mercury recycling facilities is included below. Contact recyclers directly for shipping information, prices and a list of haulers that serve their facilities.
- Check with dairy equipment dealers to see if they accept mercury or mercury manometers for recycling.
- Check with the county solid waste office to see if any other services are available in the area.
- If accessible management services are not available, store mercury and mercury manometers until services are established in the area.
Always store mercury and mercury manometers removed from service in covered leak-proof containers, such as small plastic buckets with sealable lids. Mark containers as appropriate: Mercury for Recycling or Mercury Manometers for Recycling.
Shipping Invoice
When shipping mercury or mercury manometers to another location, an invoice must accompany each shipment. That invoice must include the date of shipment, the amount of mercury or number of mercury manometers in the shipment, the location from where the waste is being shipped, and the destination of the shipment. Keep a copy of each invoice as a record of the shipment.
Mercury Recycling Facilities
MnTAP maintains this list of mercury recycling facilities solely as a service to Minnesota companies. This is not a complete list of facilities and does not represent an endorsement by MnTAP. MnTAP, by providing this list, does not represent that the services do or do not ensure compliance with environmental and safety laws in any specific application.

What options are there for Internet on Android tablets when you don't have WiFi?
Gwen, tablets and WiFi are kind of made for each other. Tablets are designed to be portable, but the many multi-media functions they perform can also use a whole lot of bandwidth. If you have a tablet, it is probably worth the expense to purchase a router to link with your existing Internet service. If you already have high-speed Internet at home, you could add a router for home WiFi with no additional cost beyond the purchase of the router. So that's usually a much better deal than other paid alternatives.
Other options are to use free Wi-Fi hotspots available at many businesses, libraries, parks and other public spaces. WiFi Free Spot [1] offers a listing of locations with free WFi in the the USA state-by-state and also listings for Europe and other regions of the world. Restaurant chains like Starbucks, McDonald's, Panera as well as many local places offer the service.
An app like WiFi Finder [2] can help you locate free and paid Wifi wherever you are.
And even give you directions on how to find it. Depending on where you live, you might be able to find enough free WiFi signals to get by without paying for your own service. A ward of warning though, don't hop on other people's WiFi signals just because they happen to be unsecured. That's like walking into a stranger's house because they left the door open or borrowing their car because they left the keys in the ignition.
Some, but not all, tablets offer you the ability to connect via 3G or 4 G connections, just like a smartphone. The cost of that would depend on your service provider. You may be able to add it on to your existing phone data plan. Tablets use a lot of bandwidth, so it could really gobble up your data minutes.
You could also purchase a mobile hot spot or some phones can be turned into a mobile hotspot. Mobile hotspots devices can run between $60 and $200 depending on the provider.
The monthly cost of a mobile hotspot will vary depending on your provider. Virgin Mobile sells a Wireless Hotspot for $119 and you can purchase 200MB of prepaid 3G access for $5 per day or 5GB for $55 a month.
If you aren't planning on using your tablet with WiFi, make sure you purchase a model that offers 3G or 4G connectivity and be prepared to pay for some type of hotspot device and a data plan.
I would suggest using a WiFi connection if at all possible.

The producer, who worked with Jackson for hits like 'Thriller' and 'Bad', says that the late King of Pop's estate and lawyers are all 'trying to make money.'
Quincy Jones is not a fan of Michael Jackson's new posthumous album, "Xscape". The producer, who worked with the late King of Pop in the past, opened up about how he felt about the record when he sat down for an interview on Canadian radio show "Q with Jian Ghomeshi" earlier this week.
"They're trying to make money," said Jones, the guy behind some of Jackson's hits including "Thriller" and "Bad". "And I understand it. Everybody's after the money, the estate, the lawyers. It's about money."
When asked if he was disappointed that more unreleased Jackson material could arrive in the future, Jones said, "Yeah, but it's not my business anymore. They're not our business."
"Xscape" was released earlier this month and it has just made its debut on Billboard 200 at No. 2. Epic Records' L.A. Reid came up with the idea of making the album and he later hired Timbaland to produce it.
Jones is not the only person who has responded to "Xscape" negatively. In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, The Black Keys' Patrick Carney said, "[It's] some f**king bulls**t that sucks so bad that it took them three years after he died to make it listenable. Like he had to be dead for three years for it to be released."
The drummer agreed that money was the main reason why the album existed. "L.A. Reid needed a new boat," he added.

On Tuesday, March 27th, Chancellor Wendell Pritchett held a symposium highlighting Rutgers' faculty and their recent research. Six presenters took ten minutes to explain their work and findings to an audience of over 100 people.
The lone representative from the English department was Dr. Fitzgerald, whose work often focuses on rhetoric and how it is adapting in the digital age.
"There are digital apps for prayer," said Fitzgerald, who went on to discuss how the act of prayer has changed in the digital age and how it can be found being expressed in modern forms of communication. With the advent of Facebook and Twitter, the ease of communicating and the audience size has increased. Prayer has made the transition as well, with athletes using Twitter to communicate directly to God, as well as to all of their followers.
"In this age of new media it becomes very interesting to see what aspects of a scene of prayer and an act of communicating with the divine carry over to new technologies," said Fitzgerald.
Professor Alison Nissen, Director of Academic Success at the law school, gave a presentation exploring her work in providing students with learning disabilities strategies to improve their outlining skills. She noted the importance of outlining for law students, and how it is an effective tool for students who want to absorb and comprehend information well. Nissen's strategies are designed to help students with attention deficit hyper-activity disorder (ADHD) and dyslexia, but would be profitable to any student who wishes to improve their outlining skills.
"These strategies are designed to make documents more organized and more readable," said Nissen, "which leads to greater comprehension, retention, and recall of the material."
Dr. Chester Spell, a professor of management, gave a presentation on the efforts of employers to influence and be knowledgeable of their employees' health. Health care is in the news as the Affordable Care Act is before the U.S. Supreme Court, and its constitutionality is being determined.
While the issue before the Supreme Court is one of whether all should be required to have health care, Dr. Spell discussed how far employers can go in influencing the decisions that their employees make regarding their health.
"We don't know what combination is right or wrong for different employers, or if there is any systematic approach," said Spell.
Spell mentioned a story where potential employees were asked to give access to their Facebook accounts, which sparked discussion over where the line should be drawn concerning employee privacy.
Sports became the focus during Professor John Smith's presentation; well, sort of.
"White Men Can't Jump, But Would You Bet On It?" is the title of a paper that he and two colleagues published that uses data collected over more than a decade to show how in basketball, racial stereotypes affect market outcomes.
"What we do find is that there are racially biased point spreads," said Smith, who teaches economics.
Smith's research is based on how point spreads are related to the number of black players on a given team. What his findings show is that the spread is greater when a team has more black players on it.
"The point spread is a market based estimate of the outcome," said Smith. Particular factors are going to affect how a sportsbook sets the spread, and Smith argues that race appears to be one of those factors.
From there the topic of research shifted from the economics in sports betting to the issue over same-sex marriage. Law Professor Perry Dane argued that the supporters of same-sex marriage need to shift their focus from one of liberty and equality to that of fraternity.
"We can keep the thick meaning of marriage, including the thickly heterosexual paradigm of marriage, and still believe that it is good, just, fair, morally necessary for same-sex couples to be able to get married," said Dane.
During the presentation the tension in the room was palpable. The issue of same-sex marriage is relevant and controversial and stirs strong feelings wherever it is discussed.
The final presenter was Nir Yakoby, a biologist who is researching the morphology of flies.
"We are especially interested in understanding the underlying mechanisms governing the formation of novel morphologies," said Yakoby.
What Yakoby means is that there are a number of differences in how fly species develop, and Yakoby and his team are conducting experiments to discover what causes these differences to occur.
The event highlighted just a number of projects that are being conducted in a wide range of fields, as Rutgers continues to be on the forefront of academic research.

Four Times Ted Nugent Compared Political Opponents To Nazis
Blog ››› ››› TIMOTHY JOHNSON
National Rifle Association board member Ted Nugent lashed out at media who covered controversy surrounding his campaign appearances with Texas Republican governor candidate Greg Abbott by comparing members of the media to Joseph Goebbels, who served as Hitler's Minister of Propaganda.
Controversy has been swirling in the Texas governor's race following Abbott's decision to include Nugent at campaign events, in spite of Nugent's recent characterization of President Obama as a "subhuman mongrel" and his lengthy history of vile attacks on women.
Nugent has responded by calling videos of his offensive commentary "lies" and "inaccurate" and also sent a series of tweets on February 19 comparing CNN and other unnamed members of the media to Goebbels:
CNN has run numerous segments on the Abbott-Nugent controversy, with CNN host Jake Tapper calling out "insane and racist talk" from Nugent and Situation Room host Wolf Blitzer noting that the term "subhuman mongrel" is similar to language used by the Nazis "to justify the genocide of the Jewish community." Nugent mentioned Blitzer in a separate tweet, writing, "@WolfBlitzer is a journalist & Im a gay pirate from Cuba." PunditFact rated Blitzer's claim about Nugent's language to be true.
Here are four examples of Nugent comparing his political opponents to Nazis:
- While representing the Outdoor Channel as a spokesman at a gun industry trade show in January 2014, Nugent compared Jewish film executive Harvey Weinstein to Goebbels. Nugent also called Weinstein a "subhuman punk," a "brain-dead idiot," "a descendant of the ultimate putz," and added, "I don't know if Harvey Weinstein has had a lifetime of drug and substance abuse, but he certainly sounds like it. You have to be brain-dead to believe that the gun-free zones of Chicago and Nuremberg [Germany] in 1938 are a desirable condition."
- In March 2013, Nugent compared Obama to "a German in 1938 pretending to respect the Jews and then going home and putting on his brown shirt and forcing his neighbors onto a train to be burned to death."
- During a July 28, 2013 concert in Nashville, Tennessee, Nugent told the crowd that his song Stranglehold "will be the soundtrack to taking back America from that lying racist in the White House, from the Attorney General that runs guns to Mexican drug gangs, to those criminal pieces of shit in the IRS, to the jack boot Nazi motherfuckers in the Department of Justice."
- In August 2013, after facing widespread criticism for his racially charged commentary about Trayvon Martin and the African-American community, Nugent stated, "I'm like a black Jew in Nuremberg 1938 and the Brownshirts can't stand me. So I'll just keep derailing their trains, shall we say."

Conveyor Belt Installations and Related Components
Idlers Introduction
Idlers are an important component in any conveyor system as they are used to support the conveyor belt and the load carried on the belt.
There are a significant number of idlers on a conveyor and if the incorrect idlers are selected, the subsequent problem manifests itself along the entire conveyor length !
Idlers are the 'low friction sliding surface' over which an endless conveyor belt is 'dragged' by the drive pulley(s), enabling a conveyor to operate for many thousands of hours without wearing out the belting.
The selection of the correct type of idlers is very important with respect to the optimum load-carrying capacity of a conveyor and the environment in which the conveyor is to operate. Similarly, understanding the design of idlers, their limitations and the factors which affect their performance, is important in ensuring that the conveyor operates reliably and cost-effectively.
Idler spacing will depend on a number of factors, i.e. layout, loads, rates of feed, belt tension. etc. Average troughing idler spacing for run of mine ore is in the vicinity of 1,2 meter. Return idler spacing is two to three times the troughing spacing.
Types and functions of idlers
It has been stated above that there are basically two types of idlers namely, carrying and return idlers.
Within these categories however, there are a number of different designs of idler sets which have developed as a result of particular applications, the need to minimise the stress imposed onto the belt and the environment in which the conveyor operates.
These different types of idlers are described below, together with a functional explanation for each.
- Troughing idler sets
|Troughing idlers are found on the carrying-side, along the length of the conveyor. On any particular conveyor these idlers are identical, as are the bases.
The troughing idlers comprise a centre idler roll of a defined width, and 'wing' idlers on either side of the centre roll.
Unlike the centre, horizontal roll, the wing idlers are cranked up to an angle known as the troughing angle.
|This troughing angle ensures that the carrying belt maintains the same cross-sectional area throughout the carrying strand, so that the load-bearing capacity of a particular conveyor belt is the same along the conveyors' full length. In so doing, material loaded to the maximum capacity at the loading point will not fall off of the belt en-route.
Troughing idlers can comprise 3-roll or 5-roll idler sets (seen above and right).
The 5-roll idler configuration offers a more uniform cross-section which results in a lesser nett carrying capacity for the same belt width and belt speed.
Garland idlers are another type of troughing idler which is used.
The garland idler set (see thumbnail right) comprises either 3-roll or 5-roll idlers joined together at the ends of their respective shafts by special lugs, to form a continuous 'chain' of idlers.
On either end of this 'chain', the shafts are connected to an attachment bracket which enables the idler set to be attached to the conveyor stringer structure.
Garland idlers are used predominantly on yard conveyors, shiftable conveyors, and dump conveyors, etc. where the alignment of the conveyor structure may not be completely correct due to the mobility of the conveyor, or the ground conditions onto which the conveyor structure in founded.
The garland idler design is more forgiving than the fixed-base troughing idler, due to its chain-like design which allows the belt centerline and idler centers to move relative to the supporting frame.
- Transition idler sets
Transition idlers are found at either end of the conveyor, adjacent to the head and tail pulleys.
These idler sets comprise standard idler rolls however the bases into which these rolls are fitted, have a smaller troughing angle to that of the rest of the troughing idlers on the conveyor.
The reason for this is that the conveyor belt is flat as it passes over the pulleys, under high tension. As the belt changes its' form to a full trough of say 35 degrees (i.e. from tail pulley to full trough angle), the belt must be supported through this transition zone. If the belt was fed directly into a full trough from the tail pulley, the belt edges would be over-stressed and damage would result.
Similarly, as the troughed angle changes to zero at the head- end, transition idlers provide support through the transition zone.
The number of transition idlers depends on the trough angle of the conveyor. In the case of a 45 degree trough angle, 2 or 3 transition idler sets would be used at either end of the conveyor. These idler sets would have incrementally greater trough angles of say 15, 20 and 35 degrees through the transition zone leading up to 45 degrees.
As with troughing idlers, transition idlers are available in fixed bases or the garland configuration.
- Impact idler sets
Wherever material is loaded onto a conveyor belt, impact idlers are installed beneath the troughed belt over the full loading length.
Impact idlers sets are spaced at intervals of typically 350 mm to 450 mm in order to provide a comprehensive support base for the belt.
Impact idlers comprise a small diameter shell, typically 'd' = 89 mm diameter, fitted with concentric rubberized rings at close intervals. These rubber rings provide a cushioning effect in the event of lumps of material falling onto the belt where an idler is located beneath the point of impact. The overall impact idler diameter 'D' = 152 mm
This cushioning ability of impact idler sets allows the energy associated with the impact to be absorbed more efficiently and with much less detrimental effect to the belt.
Impact idler rolls are either mounted into rigid, fixed base frames or can be manufactured in garland-type sets, depending on the application.
- Return idlers
The mass of the return belt is the only load that return idlers are required to support. As such, return idler sets are spaced at two to three times the pitch of their equivalent carrying-side idler sets. Return idler sets usually have one or two rolls per idler set, for similar reasons.
There are of course exceptions to the above, one being where conveyors carry material along the top and bottom strands as would be the case on two-way conveyors. In this case, troughing idlers would be located along the bottom strand as well as the top strand.
Flat return idlers comprise 1 or 2 rolls, the 1-roll design being more prevalent. In the case of a single flat return idler, the idler can be mounted onto two brackets which are secured to either side of the conveyor support structure as seen adjacent.
Where return idler sets comprise two rolls, a support frame is required which supports the idler pair and attaches the idlers to the conveyor frame. This 2-roll design forms the return belt into a 'v' trough and these return idler sets are referred to a 'V' return idlers.
The trough angle of the 'V' return idler is usually 10 degrees and this feature has been developed to assist with belt training along the return strand.
In addition to the fixed base frames for return idlers, garland-type return idlers are also available which, like their equivalent troughing idlers, are more tolerant of conveyor structure misalignment.
- Training Idlers
In spite of the correct alignment of a conveyor structure and belt splice, it is a common phenomenon for a belt to misalign at times, mainly as a result of incorrect material loading (off centre) or in cases where a conveyor is mounted onto a mobile stacker / reclaimer where the fall across the boom causes the belt to move to one side.
Rubber Disc Impact Idlers
In cases where the belt misaligns, severe damage can be done to the belt should the belt rub against a fixed structure, the head chute or conveyor stringers.
A solution to belt misalignment can be to install self-aligning idlers sets or training idlers which are able to detect belt misalignment and automatically re-align the belt.
There are a number of different types of training idler designs available in the market which can be used on the carrying and return strands of the conveyor.
Example of training idlers are shown above and can be viewed by clicking on the thumbnails.
Self Aligning Troughing Idler
Rubber disc impact idlers are used directly under the loading point to break the impact of large lumps of rock onto the conveyor belt.

Trenton, NJ - Governor Chris Christie today announced a proposal to provide additional state aid to school districts that negotiate salary freezes as part of their fiscal year 2011 budgets. The additional aid would help offset reductions in state aid as part of the Governor's proposed FY2011 Budget by providing aid dollars in an amount equal to the Social Security and Medicare payroll deductions that would have been paid on the salary increase were a freeze not adopted.
"In these difficult economic times, when fewer resources are available and difficult choices are required, local school districts and education associations are being asked to share in the sacrifices needed to protect our educational priorities," said Governor Christie. "It is our obligation to provide every possible incentive to assist those districts who are doing the right thing, making concessions to achieve savings in their schools, and joining together to avoid program and staff cuts.
"The additional dollars that result will be provided to help offset state aid reductions and give additional help to keep another teacher position, music or sports program, or help offset other areas that would otherwise be cut," the Governor said.
The State of New Jersey pays Social Security payroll taxes in the amount of 6.2 percent on employee earnings up to $106,800 and Medicare payroll taxes in the amount of 1.45 percent with no cap. Therefore, the total payroll levy from these two taxes is a combined 7.65 percent on employee earnings.
The Governor's proposed FY2011 budget includes expenditures for these anticipated Social Security and Medicare payroll taxes. By reducing payroll expenses via a salary freeze, the state would experience savings on these tax levies and apply those funds in the form of additional aid in the districts where those savings occur. As a result, this proposed aid would not come at any additional cost to the state.
As an example, a school district that saves $1 million through a one-year salary freeze would receive additional state aid of $76,500 as result of these savings. Statewide, if $500 million of savings were achieved through salary freezes, additional aid would total $38,250,000.
The proposal will require legislative approval through language in the state budget, including a provision allowing school districts to appropriate the additional funds following the adoption of local school district budgets occurring prior to the passage of the state budget.

At gigs, cameras are the new lighter
Pop shot ... phones have replaced lighters as the essential item to wave at concerts.
THIS year, thousands of punters will whip out their mobile phones or digital cameras to take a picture of their favourite band at gigs. Some will simply snap at the stage. Others will hug their mates, extend their arm and take pictures of themselves with the band in the background. Annoying? Yes. Bragging rights? Definitely. Legal? Not really.
"The mobile phone has become the new cigarette lighter," says Kevin Mitchell, lead singer with Jebediah and now performing solo as Bob Evans. "It certainly doesn't piss me off; I'm just bemused by it all. The only time it's really bothered me was when a girl down the front was talking loudly into her phone while I was singing.
"I stopped and asked her if I could talk on the phone, assuming it must be her boyfriend. It turned out to be her brother and he was at the back of the room."
Mobile phones have moved from being an adjunct to the concert experience to being a core part of it, says Kate Crawford, associate professor at the Journalism and Media Research Centre at the University of NSW.
"This is because they are adapted for so many uses. You might start using it for micro-co-ordination - finding your friends in a venue. If it's a good show, you might take photos, start calling friends so they can listen in or sending Twitter updates," she says.
"Then, after the gig ends, it lives on in a complex series of reproductions of the images and video on various social media sites."
Venue staff say the photo-taking trend is growing at a rapid rate.
Sam Nardo, the event co-ordinator for the Metro, Enmore and Factory theatres, doesn't notice it any more.
"Most bands allow people to take photos so long as it's not a professional camera and they don't use a flash. People tend to respect that. Besides, they have come to see the band and not just take photos."
Promoter Michael Coppel says artists legally have the right to restrict photographic equipment at concerts (see box for more legal issues) but most only limit professional photographers and turn a blind eye to mobile phones. "Taking away fans' mobile phones is a logistical and security nightmare for promoters and venues," he says.
Student Carlo Gebilagin, 22, says bragging about how close you got to your favourite artist is one of the reasons punters want a photo. "All my friends take photos on their phones," he says.
"It's about taking a piece of the action home and to show how close we could get to the band. The closer the better."
So does all this snapping detract from simply listening to the music? Are we too busy looking that we've forgotten to listen?
Crawford says: "People are highly adept at using their phones, recording events and still being entirely engaged with the music.
"It doesn't necessarily impair their enjoyment and, essentially, it's neither good nor bad.
"Unless it's when I'm trying to listen to a band while someone yells down the phone to their friends. That's just plain irritating."
Most venues make it a condition of entry that audience members do not film, photograph or otherwise record the performance. Doing so breaches the conditions on your ticket and you could be sued for breach of the contract your ticket represents. But it's more likely that, if you're pulled up, you'll be asked to simply cloak your camera and stop what you're doing.
If you put a photo on the internet, such as on a social
networking site, you may be breaching the site's terms and
conditions. If you upload a recording, that's an unlawful
reproduction. Anecdotal evidence suggests it's unlikely but you may
face a hefty fine for sharing a recording and the band has the
right to ask the internet service provider to remove it.

SEFFNER — The respective records of Leto and Armwood foreshadowed a game that would more than likely be very lopsided.
That prediction came true as the Armwood blew out Leto (0-6) 74-0 Friday night.
It didn't take long for Armwood (6-0) to get on the board. On the first play from scrimmage, junior quarterback Noah Johnson connected with Talvin Bailey for a 62-yard touchdown.
The quick strikes continued throughout the first quarter. At the start of the second, Armwood led 46-0.
The Hawks had fewer than 250 yards of total offense. But that's all they needed, thanks to great field position all night. Five different Hawks scored touchdowns on their only carries of the night.
Not to be outdone, the Armwood defense came up with two turnovers and returned both for touchdowns.
After the game, coach Sean Callahan said he was proud of the way his team came to play, but was also classy in victory.
"I'm proud of the way our kids played tonight. I know we won by a lot but we're not in the business of trying to embarrass anyone; we played a lot of guys tonight," he said. "Coach (Matt) Kitchie is doing a good job with his group."

Early next century, I believe 2003 will be the
centenary of Judge Roy Bean's death and it looks like
Langtry is going to celebrate his life big time.
There is a small state park there including the
Jersey Lily and containing a museum and a small,
lovely desert garden. Some good people and a
handsome desert setting, with the Rio Grande right at
hand and the Pecos not far away. That's Langtry,
Texas, folks, where the Judge was the law west of the
Pecos. And Lilly Langtry didn't come thru on the
train, though I loved seeing Ava Garner play it.

Egyptian actor Ahmad Hilmi has decided to go on a family vacation with his wife, Egyptian actress Muna Zaki, and their 6-month old daughter to London, after his latest movie proved success at cinema houses around Egypt. The couple had felt it was time they went on a family holiday to escape the pressures of their demanding career.
According to the London based weekly, Laha, Muna revealed that during her stay in London she will shop around for a collection of dresses for her upcoming movie "Ahlam Omrina" (Our Life's Dreams). The couple's trip in more ways tan one proves the lack of an existence of disputes between them, a point Ahmad and Muna want to stress to the public and the media, which has been publishing numerous lies about them.
Muna denied recent circulating rumors about the existence of disputes between her and actress Hanan Turk, stressing that it is all mere lies. Muna asserted that her relationship with Hanan could not be better and there are not any problems between them.
Rumors had it that the relationship between the two young actresses has witnessed some tension lately after news leaked to Muna that Hanan is demeaning her latest movie "Min Nazret Ain" "From Eyesight", which did not witness the success expected.
Muna found out that in a private gathering, which included Hanan, Farouq Fishawi, Sami Adil, Yusra, and Sofia Al Omari duringl Eid El Fitr (Muslim holiday after Ramadan), movies were discussed, among which was Muna's last movie where Hanan criticized the movie and said that the script was flaw and had no sense of humor. Hanan had added that the film did not contain any action to attract the youth, and that Muna only accepted this movie because she was offered the leading role for the fist time in her career. Hanan also said that Muna wanted to prove that she could succeed in a leading role without the help of her colleagues.
It was added that Muna talked to her husband, actor Ahmad Hilmi, about the problem and he assured her that Hanan would not do such thing, and suggested that she should call Hanan to make sure. Muna stressed that she would not call Hanan, and immediately called the Sabki Production Company and rejected an offer for a joint film with Hanan.
This is not the first time that rumors of disputes existing between the two actresses has been spread all over tabloids. Numerous times, it has been said that Hanan and Muna are experiencing problems and the two immediately make public announcements denying everything and assuring that their relationship is strong. –Albawaba.com

I grew up in the city watching two different scenes
Cause what's on TV and what's on the streets was two different things
Lil' Weavah - "Street Talk"
Unlike New York, Atlanta did not cut its hip-hop teeth on neighborhood block parties, rather the Dirty South scene was conceived in the clubs. Thus Ludacris, when mentioning his hometown, is usually hopping from night-spot to night-spot, like he does with Jermaine Dupri in "Welcome to Atlanta." Lil' Jon and the Ying Yang Twins bring the crunk attitude of the streets, but take it out of that context and place it in an amorphous, pan-Atlanta (or even pan-America) club. You may have facile shouts of 'A-Town,' and while it's nice to "Rep Yo City," we are given a partial picture of what it means to call Atlanta home. This doesn't degrade the music of either artist, nor is it always true (see Lil' Jon's "Stop Fuckin Wit Me"), but it does leave a void—as Ying Yang's Kaine has said, "Everybody don't club all they life 'cos shit, you gotta get it." The audible voices of Atlanta may begin to reflect the less exuberant life of the city. Both enjoying very public come ups, T.I. and Young Jeezy are a couple ATLiens who are on the grind and aren't quiet about it. Lil' Weavah, a self-proclaimed "southern lyricist" who may be even more civic-minded than his predecessors, might well follow suit.
The story behind Lil' Weavah is laid out on the "King Shit" freestyle from his latest official mixtape, Lil' Weavah: The Streets Mixtape, Volume 2. Lil' Weavah is two years removed from the drug game. Recorded his self-released album Home Team, which was a local hit in Atlanta. Now he's on every underground mixtape in town, on magazine covers, and a target of major labels. Chalk it all up to street buzz. If you missed the coronation, know that there is a new Underground King of Atlanta.
On "Street Talk," the king leads us on a tour of his holdings. He's from 'round Greenbriar, southwest A-Town, visit sometime: "See right over there? We used to rap right there / See right over there? We used to trap over there." Do we have another purveyor of Trap Muzik on our hands? Weavah does, after all, go on to claim to have the biggest record since "Rubberband Man." But unlike T.I, who sometimes borders on malevolence when celebrating the crack game, Weavah's simply reporting. "'I hear Weavah ain't no gangsta' / Nah I just keep it real shawty." Honesty is Weavah's policy, and it's a major part of his appeal.
How real does Lil' Weavah keep it? Take these lines from the meta-freestyle of "Po It Up,"" where Lil' Weavah explains his process: "And if I mess up, I chill and rest up / Come back and tell y'all I messed up." It's disarmingly candid. Weavah continues to lay it all out on "Hollywood,"" the stand out from The Streets Mixtape, Vol. 1, which has him singing the chorus, "Fuck Hollywood, I'ma stay right here in the hood." That cliché-emcee sentiment is often hollow, but Weavah allows it to put his underground success in Atlanta into a more self-effacing and self-deprecating perspective:
I guess the rap shit is making me famous, but no applause,
The other day I'm up in Kroger using my food stamp card,
Heard some nigga say, Weav, I see you on TV,
And just the other day at the mall got your CD,
So he walked up and said can I get my autograph,
Hell nah, don't you still sell green? I need a half.
The supermarket gadfly retorts by hating on Weavah's ride, a Buick Le Sabre that "makes a squeaky noise when you ride it." Food stamps, shitty ride—Lil' Weavah lays bare the motivations for his paper chase. Comedic and nonchalant, Weavah's just hit you up for some buddy-talk, and you wouldn't believe this kid at the store. His allegiance to the streets isn't just a ploy for credibility; it's an attempt to relate, and Weavah wields the requisite charisma.
Lil' Weavah has a down-to-earth swagger not entirely unlike David Banner. Banner has made no secret of his humble beginnings—he lived out of a van while recording his first album—and his mindfulness of them has informed some of the most poignant and, importantly, accessible political statements in rap of recent years. Lil' Weavah, who's filtering his earnings from both the trap and rap games towards his college tuition, who claims if he weren't rapping he'd be in politics, has potential to do the same. If it's fulfilled, Atlanta hip-hop has found a worthy streets spokesman and a perfect compliment to its dazzling heroes of the club. The consolation prize: a considerable talent makes his hood proud.
