just what I was looking for
By Dave
from Car
About Me Avid Cyclist
Comments about Nashbar Road Handlebar Plugs:
These are billed as road bar plugs but I am using them on my carbon mountain bar with no issues. I had put new grips on that came with the usual type of plugs and promptly fell and tore one up. It bugged me but I couldn't seem to find a replacement until I came upon these plugs. They fit right into the bar and snugged up nicely, I am pleased with the way they look and install.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nashbar Handlebar plugs

Exactly what I was looking for and a great upgrade from the supplied items.
Works perfectly
By Damir
from Florida
These plugs work perfectly. Much better than the cheap plastic stuff that comes with the tape. These are easy to use and bulletproof
OK with ingenuity
By abc
from on the road
They are small diameter and short in length.This makes it challenging to fit them to road handlebars. It can be done by tightening the screw before inserting them into the handlebar, until they require gentle pressure to insert them, then completing the tightening.

Works as Advertised
By Korm
from Chicago, IL
I bought a bike off Craigslist and bought bullhorn handlebars for it that were too small for regular plugs. After trying to plug with cork to no avail, I bought these thinkings "they're cheap enough even if they don't work." I had to carve the rubber pieces down, but they work like a charm. I imagine on full sized bars they'd work just as good. Tightened as advertised, despite what others have said.

Does the Job!
By Don
from Kettering, OH
Decent handlebar plugs. "Fastener plugs" don't vibrate loose like friction type plugs. If nut rotates while tightening, I use a little piece of duct tape across nut and it works fine.
Does not work
By JT

About Me Competitive Cyclist
These simply don't work. Useless.No matter how much I tighten the screw to pull the plate at the back in, the plug doesn't expand - it just spins in the bar.I had a pair like this a long time ago that worked find - not sure where I got them. These don't work.

Stay away
By Miscjunkman
from Cedar Rapids, IA
I was excited to find an inexpensive set of these plugs to avoid those crummy press in caps that come with most bar wrap. My girlfriend's Specialized came with a similar expanding plug so I got these thinking they'd work similarly. I tried these on two of my bikes, one with older "vintage" drop bars, and a newer ergo set of drop bars thinking that perhaps the tube diameter would make a difference. The rubber part that is supposed to expand is rigid and barely compresses with the screw. The first one I tried to tighten, the plastic on the exterior part of the plug cracked, long before it was tightened and compressed enough to keep it from being pulled out of the bar end. I threw it and the unused one in the trash. I don't know if I got a bad set, but look elsewhere and save yourself the disappointment.

Annual summary of ground-water conditions in Arizona, Spring 1981 to Spring 1982
Open-File Report 82-1009

AbstractThe withdrawal of ground water was about 5.4 million acre-feet in Arizona in 1981, which is about 800,000 acre-feet more than the amount withdrawn in 1980. Most of the increase in 1981 was in the amount of ground water used for irrigation in the Basin and Range lowlands province. Through 1981, slightly more than 189 million acre-feet of ground water had been withdrawn from the ground-water reservoirs in Arizona. The report contains two small-scale maps that show ground-water pumpage by areas and the status of the ground-water inventory in the State. The main map, which is at a scale of 1:500,000, shows potential well production, depth to water in selected wells in spring 1982, and change in water level in selected wells from 1977 to 1982. A brief text summarizes the current ground-water conditions in the State. (USGS)

The release of lists of interrogation techniques and other documents previously kept secret even from U.S. allies was a bid by the administration to quiet harsh criticism over its handling of prisoners in the war on terror and the conflict in Iraq.
Though some of the memos argued that Bush had the right to approve torture, the administration said it had never done so, and pointed to techniques it said fell far short of torture. In a separate press briefing Tuesday, the Justice Department backed away from a memo written in 2002 that appeared to justify the use of torture in the war on terror. That memo argued that the president's wartime powers superseded anti-torture laws and treaties.
Bush made his most explicit comments yet about the issue Tuesday: "We do not condone torture. I have never ordered torture. I will never order torture," Bush said.
The documents reveal Bush, senior administration officials and hard-pressed commanders in the field grappling with the need to extract information about future terror attacks from suspects skilled at defeating many interrogation techniques. In a Feb. 7, 2002, finding, Bush said the Sept. 11 terror attacks require "new thinking in the law of war." (Related item: White House memo)
Bush said al-Qaeda members and their Taliban allies in Afghanistan were not covered by the protections of the Geneva Conventions. But he ordered U.S. armed forces to treat them "humanely" anyway, and to observe Geneva Conventions standards "to the extent appropriate and consistent with military necessity."
Just such a necessity arose months later when the first anniversary of Sept. 11 brought new fears of terror attack. Intelligence officers at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, told their superiors that Mohamed al-Kahtani, believed to be the would-be 20th hijacker in the Sept. 11 plot, was withholding information about new attacks, Daniel Dell'Orto, the Pentagon's deputy general counsel told reporters at a White House briefing Tuesday.
The alert set in motion a review that culminated with a Nov. 27, 2002, "action memo" in which Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld approved interrogation techniques that included "removal of clothing" and "inducing stress by use of detainee's fears (e.g. dogs)."
Rumsfeld also approved placing detainees in "stress positions," such as standing for up to 4 hours, though he apparently found this approach unimpressive. Rumsfeld, who works at a stand-up desk, scrawled on the memo, "I stand for 8-10 hours a day. Why is standing limited to four hours? D.R." (Related link: View memo)
Eventually, after military officers raised moral and legal concerns about the techniques and the Pentagon conducted an internal review, Rumsfeld issued revised rules for Guantanamo in April 2003 that omitted the stripping and use of dogs.

Fox sports columnist Ken Rosenthal had a few tribe tidbits in his column today....
-- Rosenthal talked to Victor Martinez and CC Sabathia about the first time they faced each other. The two have played together since Class A.
Yankees left-hander CC Sabathia said his weirdest moment against the Indians occurred in the first time his former catcher, Victor Martinez, stepped to the plate.
Martinez, too, was struck by the encounter.
When I asked him about Sabathia two days after they faced each other, he said, "You just said his name and my heart got quicker. I can't really describe how weird it felt when I walked out to the batter's box and looked at CC."
Sabathia and Martinez first became teammates in 1999, playing for the Indians' Class A affiliate in the New York-Penn League. At the time, Martinez was 20 and Sabathia 18.
"For a second, I didn't hear any crowd, any people," Martinez continued. "I just looked at CC and my first thought was, 'How amazing is this game?' One day you're here, and the next day you're there.
"I said hello, tipped my helmet. He responded the same way. It was special for me. I don't think I'm going to forget that day."
Asked which of his new Indians teammates surprised him the most as a player, DeRosa chose outfielder Shin-Soo Choo. Manager Eric Wedge, describing Choo as a true five-tool talent, says the native of Korea eventually will steal more bases. Choo, 26, stole 40 bases at Class AA in 2004 and 26 at AAA in '06.

The summer holiday season is winding down. But last Monday, Americans got to enjoy one last hurrah. A federal holiday – Columbus Day.
But can we afford all these days off? And how does America compare with the rest of the world?
Well, the consulting firm Mercer ranks countries by the number of holidays each requires by law. The data confirms a number of commonly held stereotypes (and there a few surprises). Take a look. Top of the list is the United Kingdom, with 28 statutory holidays. Nine of the top ten countries are, of course, in Europe who love La Dolce Vita. Eight of those are in Western Europe.
Do Americans need more holidays?

The pop star released a 27-second clip giving a first listen of her new album's title track and release date.
Fresh from her well-received performance at the Macy's Fourth of July Fireworks Spectacular, pop star Selena Gomez has unveiled a short teaser for her forthcoming new album "Stars Dance", set to the tune of its title track and reminding fans of its July 23 release date. The 20-year-old singer's debut solo album includes her current No. 1 hit "Come & Get It" and latest single "Slow Down".
The 27-second clip opens up right away by revealing the track's producer Rock Mafia, who posted the link on their official Twitter account. It is then followed by the album's cover image of a black-and-white photo of Gomez garbed in an elaborately beaded outfit and headpiece, with her left hand stroking the side of her face, before closing out with the album's due date.
The teaser certainly embodies the title with all the starry visuals that gives you the illusion you're in outer space, coupled with the electronica-inspired instrumentals giving listeners that extra-terrestrial feeling. It's another different, out-of-this-world theme she is exploring here after her "Arabian Nights" and Bollywood-inspired concept in "Come & Get It".
For fans of her never-ending love saga with Justin Bieber, fans will be treated to "Love Will Remember", the most personal track on the record, according to Gomez, as it is admittedly about her on-and-off relationship with the oftentimes controversial global heartthrob. As fans wait for the album to hit the stores, they can, for the meantime, catch Gomez this weekend on the Weekend Countdown and Hit Bound programs on SiriusXMHits1.

What is a VIPP? It's a Very Important Plant Person!!!
VIPP membership is FREE and you can cancel at any time. Here are some of the benefits VIPPs will receive:
Weekly email notifications of Sales and Special VIPP Offerings! If you are a collector, this is something you don't want to miss!
First choice of all new products. You will receive a notification of all new items and VIPPs will have a special time 'window' for exclusive access to those items.
In addition to receiving offerings of plants that are rare or in limited quantities, VIPPs will receive a cash discount on all shipping, no matter how large or small your order!
All walk-in VIPPs will receive a 10% discount on their pick-up orders!
Also, VIPPs will be eligible to reserve out-of-stock items. (This feature is coming soon!)
Here's how the Special VIPP Offers will work:
Tropiflora will set up a VIPP Special with a group of select plants. In most cases there will be limited quantities of each.
An email will be sent to each VIPP, announcing the Special and displaying each of the plant offerings.
Because our clients live across the globe in far flung time zones, for the FIRST 24 HOURS, VIPPs can order one or up to all of an item as they wish, though only one will be promised to the first buyer. This will allow others a chance to get an item if more than one is available. The rest will be placed in a Wait Queue.
At the end of the Hold Window (24 hours after the initial offer), any remaining items will be fairly distributed to all those waiting, on a first-come, first-serve basis.
All this may seem a bit confusing, but in the past when we used to make VIPP offers, those in certain time zones received their notification emails during the day or evening while others received them late at night. Obviously, it gave an advantage to some buyers and put the rest at a disadvantage. We are trying to 'level the playing field' here a little and let all interested buyers get at least one of an item, while supplies last, during the first 24 hours. After that, no restrictions apply.
Please note that VIPP discounts are based on and available for retail sales only. Wholesale VIPP members may purchase VIPP special items, but only at the stated VIPP price. Wholesale Customers are not eligible for any other discounts associated with the VIPP program, including walk-in discounts or shipping discounts unless paying retail prices.

Sept. 11, 2008
By Curtis Pashelka
San Jose Mercury
MORAGA, Calif. -- Save for a few days of facial hair growth, Patty Mills on Wednesday looked and sounded like the same mild-mannered guy who made an immediate impact for the St. Mary's College men's basketball team last season.
But Gaels coach Randy Bennett knows better.
"He already had (confidence and high self-esteem), but I think it'll go to another level," Bennett said as he sat beside his star point guard at a small news conference. "His understanding of leadership will go to another level. ... That's what we'll gain out of this. I don't (his improvement) will come in a statistical category. I think It'll come in leadership."
Less than three weeks after his eye-opening performance for Australia's national team at the Beijing Olympics, Mills was back on the serene St. Mary's campus Wednesday morning as he began his readjustment to college life as a sophomore.
Mills, though, said he's not quite the player or person he was before the start of the Olympics, where he came off the bench to average a team-high 14.2 points per game in helping the Boomers advance to the quarterfinal round against Team USA.
Against a star-studded American roster, Mills had 20 points, three steals and two assists during Australia's 116-85 loss. After the quarterfinal game, U.S. coach Mike Krzyzewski said he was glad his Duke team didn't play St. Mary's this season and believed Mills was a future NBA player.
All-Stars Kobe Bryant and Chris Paul also were complimentary during the postgame news conference, but Mills said he was only given a certain amount of respect on the court.
"Chris Paul and Dwyane Wade ... I had no idea what they were like," Mills said. "They had some pretty nasty words and comments for me during the game. I didn't back down, but I was like, 'That's Chris Paul talking to me.' "
Mills' performance in Beijing has led some to believe that this could be St. Mary's best team in the 101-year history of the program. The Gaels lost only two significant players from last season's team -- guards Todd Golden and Tron Smith -- that had a record-tying 25 wins and advanced to the NCAA Tournament.
Besides Mills, St. Mary's returns its entire starting frontcourt in Diamon Simpson, Omar Samhan and Ian O'Leary. Wayne Hunter and Indiana transfer Ben Allen figure to play prominent roles after redshirting last season, and freshmen Collin Chiverton and Tim Williams could bolster an already strong supporting cast.
Mills' play at the Olympics also has led to speculation that this season will be his last with St. Mary's, as some online 2009 NBA mock drafts list him as a first-round pick.
Mills, however, said his sole focus these days is helping the Gaels win the West Coast Conference and get back to the NCAA Tournament.
"It was definitely a massive challenge that I faced and one that I learned a lot from," Mills said of the Olympics. "That's where I come in and try to pass what I've learned onto the boys here."

TOP STORY >>Deal to build subdivision not dead
By RICK KRON
Leader staff writer
The contract deadline has not passed, said Ron Campbell, the businessman trying to buy the 100-acre North Hills Country Club and golf course and turn it into a gated community of high-end homes.
Campbell had worked out a $5.1 million deal to buy the Sherwood course from James Rodgers.
I was very surprised to see the media reports that the deal was dead and that Rodgers was offering to sell it to the city, he said, adding, no one told me.
Campbell talked to James Rodgers, the current owner Thurs-day. Were still talking about the fate of the property, Campbell said.
Sometime in the future we will be the owners of the property, Campbell said.
But Rodgers says the due date on that agreement has come and gone and put the property back on the market.
Also, Rodgers has said he plans to cease club operations after this weekend, and if the city wants to save the golf course, it will have to work out an agreement with him to maintain the greens.
The city is putting together a proposal for us to look at. Its just a matter of working things out, Rodgers said.
How long the greens will last without care, Rodgers said, is unknown. There are a number of factors including the weather. They could die out in a matter of hours or a month, but they really do need daily care, he said.
At a Sherwood City Council meeting in late April, aldermen approved the first reading of a resolution calling for a six-month moratorium on any and all building permits, rezoning requests or any other work projects for the 100-acre golf course on the corner of Hwy. 107 and Country Club Drive.
Mayor Bill Harmon explained that the moratorium was necessary to give the city time to complete its feasibility study, get an appraisal and decide on how to pay for it and bring it before the people for a vote.
The city has issued a moratorium before when Chapel Links Apartments wanted to build in the city. The apartment builders took the city to court over the moratorium. The city eventually pulled the moratorium and the apartments were built.
Campbell said he talked to Rodgers Thursday and we both feel the city could be in for a lawsuit because of their interference.
Campbell said his plan for the golf course property is to turn it into a very nice single-family home subdivision. Much like Osage Falls in Maumelle, he said.
Rodgers said he has suggested to the city to buy the golf course three or four times over the past few years. I dont think they thought we were serious until the for sale sign came out, he said.
Rodgers added that every time he went to the city and talked to either Mayor Bill Harmon or Mayor Danny Stedman about buying the property, the talks have always been very friendly and positive.
But the city never pursued the property until Campbell made an offer on the property earlier this year.

The Monk from Brooklin: an interview with Antonio Graceffo Pt.3
MM- You are working on "In Shanland", a documentary about the atrocities of the civil war tearing apart North East Burma. I already published some excerpts on the website. How did you get in touch with the Shan, and what can you tell me about this very unique experience?
The first time I went to Thailand, I went there specifically to find a monk, named Prah Kru Bah, who teaches Muay Thai to war orphans on the Burma border. I lived with him for three months, learning Muay Thai, Thai language, and learning about the war in Burma. After that I kept doing journalism, writing about the different tribes. Eventually I got the opportunity to go with the Shan. One reason why I liked the Shan was because I like the Thai, and it is a similar language and culture. Many of the monks I lived and trained with were Shan, so I became interested in helping them.
Shanland is one horrible story after another. A girl who was gang rapped while her family was burned alive in their house, a man who was used as a human mine detector, he stepped on a mine and they left him for dead. My friends, Kawn Wan and Tun Yee who hid in the bushes while their family was murdered before their eyes. Kawn Wan's sister escaped with him to the jungle. But the Burmese army came and killed. He never forgot finding her body, with her head blown open. He was ten years old.That is Shanland for me. When I left there I was so screwed up, it took me a year to recover. But my friends will never recover.
MM- I keep on reading on TIME Asia that the USA are starting to consider taking some action in Burma, working out some conditions with Than Swe. What if this happened, according to you? To me, this can be scary, and I want to know the opinion of an American, but not a "regular one" like you.
The US should send Delta Force commandos to rescue Aung San Suu Kyi then hit Napidaw, the new political capitol, with nuclear weapons. Peacekeepers should move in and hold the place together till democratic and free elections could be held.
This will never happen. And my friends are dying at a rate of 200 per week. And no one gives a shit. 200 people are killed and thousands are made homeless each week in the war in Burma.
MM- What do you think of the American involvement in the Middle East?
I have no expertise in the Middle East but from what I have seen Lao, Burma and now Afghanistan are the same stupid story again, and again. The US doesn't understand and yet they are involved and they have zero chance of winning, if there is even something to win.
MM- Martial Arts. We are all quite unaware of this world on this website, but willing to learn. What is Graceffo?s suggestion for dummies? How to start practicing martial arts, and which is the best way to learn and practise them in the far east?
Learning martial art is exactly the same as learning a language. You have to put in hours and hours and hours of practice. Then you will succeed. If not, you won't.
MM- You fight, film, write, travel, and definitely live a pretty adventurous life. How can you keep all of these projects going? How do you finance yourself? It seems like you have a very DIY approach I really like and share?
I earn some money from magazine writing, some from book royalties, some from TV or movies, and when all of that fails, which it generally does, I fall back on my teaching degree. But during all of this, I live cheaply. Maybe that is the best piece of advice. I don't drink. I don't smoke. Don't use drugs and almost never go out at night. I never buy anything except what I need for my work like a digital recorder or a camera. I live cheaply. I look at money as time. One episode of a US TV show lands me three months of being in the field, doing my writing, filming, and training rather than teaching or working. One month of teaching nets me about two weeks of field work.
MM- Tell me something about the show Martial Arts Odyssey…
The show now has nearly 200 episodes. It follows me through southeast Asia, training in various martial arts. I try to show a little of the local culture and languages as well as the arts in my show. It was intended for people who can't afford to or don't have the opportunity to do what I do. Even busy people can take ten minutes during a lunch break and watch an episode where I am training with Tony Jaa's teacher in the Khmer speaking part of Thailand or I am with Shaolin monks in Bangkok.
The book, "Warrior Odyssey" is basically the book version of the show. But the cool thing about the book is that it also covers the first few years when I didn't own a video camera. There are tons of adventures, like Shaolin or Korea which I had before I had a camera. So, the book fills in a lot of gaps. It also talks about what happens between the shows, when I have no money and I am struggling and getting disappointed working with TV networks…I can't wait for the book to come out next year.

Mitt Romney – remember him? – is working through his stages of grief at losing the election campaign, and has resurfaced in a call to his lucky donors. During the call, he blamed his defeat on Barack Obama's "gifts" of free stuff like healthcare and education to women and people of colour.
The Los Angeles Times's Maeve Reston appears to have heard the conference call, and reports:
Mitt Romney told his top donors Wednesday that his loss to President Obama was a disappointing result that neither he or his top aides had expected, but said he believed his team ran a "superb" campaign with "no drama," and attributed his rival's victory to "the gifts" the administration had given to blacks, Hispanics and young voters during Obama's first term.

Do you think your friend would like to know that DDS has this item? Just fill in the following information and we will let them know!
My daughter refuses to wear anything else now that she's discovered the Self Knit waistband! It's so much more comfortable, and you can tell it would be since it's just as soft as the tights themselves. And I don't think it shows under leotards as much either because it's seamless. Now just wish they made it in stirrups and fishnets and ... basically everything!! Who wouldn't want more comfortable tights?
Was this review helpful to you? YES (
These are as soft as the original version (1816C) but the waistband is much more comfortable and flattering. My daughter loves these.
Age: 40-49
These indicate one size, but what size are they intended for? The 1816C fits S/M(2-6) and M/L(8-12).
This style is ONE SIZE 8-12 please see attached size chart, use area that's marked 8-12- DDS Customer Service (02/24/2014)

text: Our Verdict It might be an eyeful to start with, but the Aurora doesn't have the sound or presence to justify the price For Novel design initial wow factor capable midrange Against Dislocated bass thin treble imprecise volume control Reviewed on 28th December 2009 Have you ever wanted the Aurora Borealis – aka the Northern Lights – in your front room? Well, now you can (sort of) in the shape of Gear 4's intriguing SoundOrb Aurora iPod dock and wireless subwoofer combo. The Aurora is the UK-based company's first stab at a higher-end dock system. Aesthetically, the focus is very much on the 4in, downward-firing sub. Bearing a passing resemblance to Eve from Wall-E, the curvy unit doubles as an ambient light, with a full array of constantly changing colours. Sonically, the Aurora presents a capable midrange. But we found the top-end too thin, while bass is a shapeless mass that appears to be coming from the next room. A taxing listenThere's also a lack of detailing, timing and coherence to music that makes this combo a taxing listen. Of the three sound modes, 'stereo' seems to work best, with '3D' and 'wide' lacking oomph. Usability also leaves something to be desired, with the dock's volume control irritatingly easy to alter when setting up your iPod. More after the break It's also worth noting that the 'Works with iPhone'-certified Aurora can only be used with Apple products. It might be £50 less than B&W's Zeppelin Mini, but in terms of sound the SoundOrb Aurora system is light years behind.

text: The Ukrainian presidential election is less than a month away. To say there's worldwide anticipation would be an understatement. U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt has called it "the most important election in the history of independent Ukraine." The U.S. is sending $11.4 million to Ukraine for the sole purpose of ensuring the integrity of the vote, while Russia is doing everything it can to drum up enough unrest to thwart it—despite the fact that 85 percent of Ukrainians say they plan on going to the polls. But the truth is that a successful presidential election is, as Kennan Institute Director Matthew Rojansky put it, "an almost irrelevant question" when it comes to stopping the crisis. Come May 26, Ukraine could be in an even worse position than it is now.

I have had my DS (dear son) at a licensed homebased daycare center since last May. I was quite pleased with the provider up until the fall of last year. He came home with some specks of poop in various areas of his diaper region. I didn't say anything at first, until he got a rash from it. I spoke to her about keeping an extra eye on the diaper changes. She apologized and it got better for a month or so. Then again the poop remnants appeared again. I spoke to her again. Got better. Then he came home and his penis was caked in poop...no where else was there poop just around his penis. I gave her a stern talking to about the dire need to keep him clean.
Then this past Monday I went to bathe him when we got home from daycare and when I removed his diaper he had dried poop above his butt crack and when I removed it, underneath was a rash. Also all over his bum was rose red and he couldn't even sit on it without screaming in pain. At this point I didn't want him to return to this daycare but with our financial situation we both need to work.
So like a dumbass we brought him back on Tuesday and my SO (significant other) told her what we had found in his diaper the day before. She apologized. That same day when I picked him up from daycare we went to my parents house for dinner, straight from daycare. I changed his diaper in front of my parents and he had dried poop above his penis and on his testicles. Then I flipped up his penis and there was a significant amount of poop stuffed under his penis. His butt cheeks were even more red and had turned into welts in areas like they were swollen.
I called the DC (daycare, dear child) provider the following morning and explained what had I seen in his diaper and how much pain he is in. She claimed it was strange as she thought she doubled check the areas. There is no way in hell she could have even checked once never mind twice, and missed that amount of poop that was still on him. We finally realized what idiots we were to allow this to happen in her care time after time. He is not going back and we have toured other facilities and have found one that we love.
Some other things that I think that contribute to his diaper rash is that I have witnessed my 18month old child confined to a booster chair on several occassions when I've dropped by early to pick him up. She claims he was eating snacks but I had not witnessed any food remenants on the tray. Even this Monday when I picked him I witnessed her removing him from his booster seat before I entered her house (I could see her from her livingroom window). When I entered into the house I saw she had her dinner on the table and was obviously eating while my child and another younger child were restrained in booster chairs in the livingroom while she was in the kitchen eating.
The areas of his rash are in a weird pattern. It's exactly where the diaper would be pushed against the skin if the child was made to sit in a confined position.
Anyways, this long post was to ask this simple question: I have a contract that states I need to giver her 2 week notice if I want to terminate her care or pay her for the 2 weeks. I feel like she broke the contract by not giving my child the proper care he needs and therefore I do not need to uphold my end of the contract. WWYD?
*We have a ped appointment this afternoon for his 18month check up and also to have the ped look at the rash.
I also understand that I let this go on far too long and have been beating myself up over this all week. I totally feel like I failed in my parenting duties.

" Brand: Omron / Type: Scales "
* Prices may differ from that shown
In an aim to get healthy and lose weight this year I decided that after a Christmas and New Year blow-out to invest in some 'proper' scales for my home. I'm not usually one to bother about numbers on scales and generally go by how my clothes feel to know whether or not I need to lose weight but having had a rough couple of years in my personal life which I ended up pretty much comfort-eating my way through I found new inspiration to get healthy at the end of the recent upheaval and decided that I would do things properly this time and keep an proper account of weight gains and, more importantly, losses.
Browsing on amazon I decided that I would buy a set of scales that were from a good brand name and settled for these from Omron, they did have mixed reviews from what I read but I liked the appearance of them and having some credit in my gift certificate balance they didn't seem overly expensive at £24.95. Quickly delivered after a couple of days and neatly packaged in a simple cardboard box the scales were exactly as shown in the picture here and on amazon and I was quite impressed with their simple yet stylish look.
Constructed from toughened glass and featuring a clear digital window the HN286 digital scales have a large surface area for a person to stand on, they can hold a maximum weight of 180kg (around 28 stone) so suitable for many body shapes and sizes. They appealed to me being a tall, heavy guy with big feet, I'm not demure by any stretch of the imagination though thankfully not at the upper end of what these scales can hold but still wanted something a little more 'mansize' than an average, everyday set. There are sensors that run under the bottom of the scale which, according to Omron, means that they should be incredibly accurate in recording weight fluctuations and have four feet which hold them firmly in place when they are stood upon. They can be set to display a weight in Kilograms or Pounds which is handy and are activated by stepping onto the scale, coming off and then back on again. It takes a few seconds for the scales to register and display the weight and the numbers are clear to read. Aesthetically speaking I do think the scales are nicely designed, the turquoise frosted glass looks classy and they are easy to keep clean only requiring a quick wipe over with a cloth for them to maintain their glossiness. It's how accurate they are though that's the most important thing for any pair of bathroom scales and unfortunately for the HN286 I have to say that they are a complete let down...
Temperamental would be a good word to describe these scales as they display a different weight depending on where you have them stood. They don't work on carpets, rugs or the merest hint of an uneven surface and even on laminate flooring (which I have throughout my home) they display a different weight depending on where they are. In one part of the hallway they show a different weight to another and on the vinyl floor covering I have in my shower room they offer another different result. It's frustrating to say the least to get an accurate weight display from these and I soon learned to put them in exactly the same place every time I attempted to get weighed and even then I didn't really trust the results they gave me. I'm not usually someone who jumps on the scales every day but as an experiment with them I did try to record my daily weight fluctuations over the course of a week to fully give them the benefit of the doubt before declaring them to be useless. I realise that some people's weight changes at different times of the day (lighter in a morning, heavier on an evening) so was prepared to overlook the odd lb or two difference but these scales would weigh me up to 6lbs heavier or lighter on a daily basis and for me they were just too discouraging to keep on using.
Anyone paranoid about their weight would find these scales to be alarming I think and any joy at discovering a weight loss would quickly turn to despair if they weighed 'wrong', there just didn't seem to be any consistency with them at all and I quickly lost faith in what they were displaying as I couldn't trust the results. I haven't owned a set of scales for years and these reminded me why after attempting to use them for a couple of weeks and sadly I ended up contacting amazon and asking for a refund as I just found them to be inaccurate and, worse of all, demotivating. It wasn't just me who tried them out either, someone a lot lighter than me who knew their weight gave them a go and they weighed them a lot heavier to what they knew their weight to be and even double checked on their own scales once they got home to compare results.
For me the HN286 Digital Scales look the part but are either far too sensitive or just badly made to be an accurate way of keeping track of a persons weight and for a company as reputable as Omron I'm surprised that they haven't withdrawn these from sale. They're too temperamental to what floor surface they can be placed on and are so badly inaccurate that they have no consistency whatsoever, luckily for me amazon refunded me the cost of purchase and told me to dispose of the scales rather than sending them back so they ultimately ended up in the bin and I've gone back to keeping an eye on how my clothes feel rather than recording a number on a digital display to tell me if I'm putting on or losing weight.
All in all an utter disappointment and worthy of a single star rating here simply because I can't award them zero. Avoid at all costs would be my advice and if you're looking for a set of accurate weighing scales then buy something else or better still ditch all scales completely and go on how you look and feel.
Thanks for reading my review.

Hattie (Gray) Austin Moseley (circa 1900-1998)
Company: Hattie's Chicken Shack
Started: 1938
Hattie Austin Moseley was newly widowed in 1938, living in Saratoga Springs, New York and looking for a way to provide for herself during the difficult years of the Great Depression. Born in Louisiana, Moseley, whose mother died in childbirth, had held jobs as a domestic and restaurant worker. Using her savings, she launched Hattie's Chicken Shack, a food stand serving southern-style fried chicken, biscuits and other treats that was open 24 hours a day, to cater to the horse-racing and night life scene that made the town famous. Her food and sense of humor drew crowds; within a year, she earned enough to expand to a full-scale restaurant, frequented in its history by such celebrities as Jackie Robinson, Cab Calloway and Mikhail Baryshnikov. Moseley continued to work until age 92, when she sold the restaurant. As of 2013, it remains a popular and historic restaurant that still uses Hattie's original fried chicken recipe, named best by Food and Wine magazine.

Review by hangedman
''My name is Counter-Strike, and I'll be feasting on your soul.''
Let's face it: this game is ****ing huge. It's everything that I want in an online game, and most everything I want in a First Person Shooter. It does so much right, and it delivers an experience unlike any other game in FPS history, and to a large extent any FPS promising a realistic combat scenario. I'm a true believer in this game. I play it every week, and have been doing so since it was introduced to me several months ago. If ever a game was to capture the sheer definition of longevity, this game is it.
I'm not even a major player of CS, as people affectionately call it. Some friends and online teammates spend hours playing every day, and are as much a facet of the server I play at as the server itself. To some, CS is more a lifestyle than a game. When newer, ''better'' games show up, CS's true fan base gets no smaller. Again, this is lasting appeal.
Consider that this game, if it deserves to be called that, is actually a free modification for Half-Life, and the only one to date that has actually been so successful to warrant a retail Half-Life add-on-pack containing a free game—in order for it to be released to an even larger audience. What could be considered marketing suicide is actually a successful business venture on company Valve's part: people buy it en mass.
As an add-on for Half-life, it retains HL's graphical engine, capable of displaying semi-realistic environments with quite a few characters, as well as character models with a wide array of detail. Although not as high-poly as many other titles in environments or as high-gloss as competitors, the HL engine has a lot of life in it: rarely ever does it feel like the lurching undead. To sweeten the deal, most of CS is customizable outside of the levels, so if you're unhappy with the look of a particular gun or character, it's out with the old and in with the new. I go through guns like a rich woman goes through shoes.
For the record, Terrorism is bad.
In play mechanics, CS is very similar to Half-Life. The standard configuration is a customizable button setup, usually the WSAD control config working together with the mouse, which most agree to be the most precise and easy control for any first person shooter. CS is no exception here... if you can aim and shoot robots in Quake 2, blast Nazis in Return to Castle Wolfenstein, or shoot terrorists in Rainbow Six, you'll find armed combat a snap.
Then again , the control is tight and responsive when you aren't being made to stop breathing by the other characters in-game. Everyone that interacts in CS is a real live player. Expect to find pseudo-intellectuals to hard-core gangstas to third graders attempting to sneak in some violence, though they'd never admit their real age. The faces of CS are many, indeed. It is ultimately the interaction with other characters that determines how good your chances of survival are.
The beauty of CS is within the simplicity: there are two teams attempting to kill each other, Counter-Terrorists and Terrorists. Depending on the map being played, one team might have the home court advantage: Terrorists must plant a bomb, CTs must rescue hostages. Failing either goal, either team can wipe out the other for an instant win. This game is a team game. It's hard for one man to make a difference unless he's really good. Wins are awarded with large sums of money, with which equipment and guns can be purchased. Losses are given less money, to ensure that the other team is outgunned but not overpowered.
To fight the other team one has access to an arsenal of weapons, no doubt CS's main strength. The beauty is that each type of gun suits a playing style perfectly. If you want distance, buy a sniper rifle. Close-in assaults are best left to sub-machine guns and shotguns. Should you fight as a support-role, several mid-range assault rifles allow a zoomed semi-auto rate of fire for quick and deadly pot-shots. Each weapon has a different rate of fire and heavier recoil, which tends to throw your aim off with constant shooting. All the bases are covered further, as your choice in sidearm can determine your longevity when you need to reload your primary gun. Choose a hand cannon for assault, or a 20-round pea-shooter for scare tactics and cover fire. The weapon selection and use has an amazing attention to detail, but ultimately it will be your coordination with other weapons and their users that leads to victory.
And coordination is tops. A five-thousand dollar rifle won't save you from an 300 dollar flashbang grenade that can incapacitate you and allow a pistol-user an easy victory. Knowing the safe zones open to you to make a retreat in addition to using your radar to locate teammates can be crucial to survival. Give back-up and surprise a predator of your teammate, and in return you may breathe a sigh of relief when another teammate shoots a guy that had a bead on you. Strategy and surprise are key elements in this game, there's no question about that.
With the newly-implemented voice-communication, willing teammates can pair up to create chillingly effective 2-man hit squads and execute battle-tactics in the midst of a frenetic gunfight. Your level of strategy can be defined by your level of communication, a facet of gameplay unexplainably glossed over until recent years.
Another towering strength of this game is the fact that your playing style can be refined and adapted to situations at hand. Many online players choose to rush as fast as possible to choke-points in the map to gain the offensive upper hand. Personally, I choose to move without making a sound and prey on the lone-gunmen of the other team, checking the radar often to see where my teammates are and extrapolating where I can plan a flank given their positions. It is because both styles are welcome that CS is an experience.
The problem is that CS has a tendency to do as much harm in the bad as it does with the beauty in the good. For starters, CS is based on rounds which can last up to four minutes. Assuming you die before the round ends, you're stuck watching the round play out as a dead spectator. Should your skill be less than adequate, or should you be attempting to learn the game, don't be surprised to find that you're dead more than you are alive.
''I had a magazine to read when I was dead.'' – a friend.
Assuming the ''stuck-in-limbo'' mode wasn't enough for a new player to deal with, the CS community can be shockingly xenophobic, as everyone is expected to know where to go and what to do. Should you slip up your aim, kill someone with the wrong gun, or gain the advantage by hiding, the other server patrons may end up disliking you and voicing this dislike in the middle of the game, spoken or otherwise.
Finally, what CS lacks in user-unfriendliness and the occasional inability to avoid death, it lacks even more in weapon imbalance. It seems that the CS team has fallen asleep at certain areas during the evolution of this game. The best example is a one-hit-kill rifle (banned on many servers for precisely this reason) which is about the same cost as a semi-auto rifle which has a downright buggy shot-grouping. It's left to the intelligence of the player whether to buy a laser-accurate howitzer or an inferior weapon that can't hit the broad side of a barn for the same price. Even the most devout of pokemon fanboys could see that this is a problem, and the imbalance it creates is mind-boggling.
Although less extreme of an example, there are many weapons that simply ''don't cut it'' against virtually every other weapon, and realistically there are about 14 weapons out of the 20 or so offered that stand no chance of putting down your opponent: pistols with no pop-pop, submachine guns with low rates of fire, and an albatross of a machine gun that couldn't hit a fish in a barrel with a full magazine. More weapons are a fine inclusion, but more weapons that aren't nearly as good as what is currently offered is a very different story. What is the use of putting in new guns if the team knows damn well that they aren't up to par?
Fortunately for CS, the savvy player can minimize the downsides. If you don't like the bulky models, download new ones. If you want more teamwork in the game, use the voice-com. If you don't like the one-hit-wonder gun, go to a server that doesn't allow it. If you hate dying, mask your position and play silently. Your experience with CS can be highly variable. For the most part, I have a blast playing it, but that's a result of finding a good server with good, friendly players, not to mention a good anti-cheat program running behind the scenes. It's also largely because I'm very good at the game.
When the experience is a welcome one, CS delivers an unmatched gaming high that practically guarantees that you'll continue to return to the game like an addict. When things turn sour, you'll be amazed at the lack of gameplay balance, the unwillingness of some people to work as a team, and the sickening depths to which people take this game seriously. True, most of the bad can be minimized, but when things turn ugly in CS, they turn really ugly.
As it stands, if you have a cable modem, a computer that can run 3d games, and a copy of Half-life, CS is a free modification. Free is a big word to throw around, and it's an especially big word to use to describe a game that a majority of people find to be the best FPS ever made. Though not without its share of problems, it's easy to see how people can enslave themselves into playing this game for hours and days on end. Conversely, it's easy to see how some people hate this game with a passion.
I was skeptical at first. I wondered to myself how a game could captivate people for such a long period of time without growing old. Here I am, two years later, and I don't have an explanation. There's something alluring about CS, be it the constant challenge, difference in play style, learning new areas and tricks with every game, or turning into a tactical zombie for hours at a time.
CS does more harm than it does good, bottom line, and has the most longevity of any game I've played to date. This game is like crack, and you are a crack whore.
Addiction. Even if it's bad for you on occasion, you'll return like the junkie you are.
*Yeah, I'm one of them.

Backside of ole gun emplacements. All that remains on the other side of these old bunkers is where the guns were placed. They were designed to fold down below the surface of the land. They were loaded, then popped up above the surface and fired. It was said that the guns were so large, when they fired (Civil War era), they shook all the windows of San Francisco which is across the Bay.

In this one, you can see the observation post up top to where'd they'd sight in the attacking armada- either the Confederates or even the Japanese fleet of the 1940's. While the Japanese did invade and take some islands off Alaska during WWII (& were soon pushed off in heavy fighting), the much-feared invasion of the United States mainland never came.

Point Bonita
Attachment 96881
Unfortunately, my time constraints didn't allow me enough time to walk out to the lighthouse to get some new photographs of it. Last time I was there, was burning through a roll of film with my ole 35mm.
Here's a pic of it pulled from the link below:
Attachment 57823
Here's how it looks from space- you can even see the suspension bridge out to the massive rock that the lighthouse sits atop.
For the lighthouse buffs
The Point Bonita Lighthouse was first lit on May 2, 1855. Lens: Fixed, second-order Fresnel purchased from Paris for $7,000. First fog signal used on the U.S. West Coast was at Point Bonita. An Army-surplus, eight-foot long, 24-pounder siege gun from the Benicia Arsenal. The "fog signal" was operated by a new keeper, one Sgt. Maloney, U.S. Army Ret., who fired the gun every half-hour during foggy weather starting August 8, 1856.
This photo (follow the link) looks across the suspension bridge, towards the lighthouse. Another unique feature of Point Bonita: it is the only American lighthouse to be reached by a suspension bridge. A replica of the Golden Gate Bridge, naturally. The original lens room was moved from the 1855 cliff-top site to its current location in 1877. The lens room contains the second-order, French-built lens with a "fixed" characteristic (light was on constantly, no flashes). In 1855, Point Bonita's light was unique to the area so there was no need to distinguish it from other lights. A lighthouse was identified by a unique pattern of light flashes, separated by periods of dark. That came latter for this light. Point Bonita shares a feature with the Frallon Island light, both have iron gargoyles in the form of American eagles at each of the rain spouts.
This is an example of an "oops." The arrow points (follow the link) to the original, 1855 location for the Point Bonita Lighthouse. A site high on the cliff top, a breath-taking 306 feet above the sea, was chosen for the lighthouse by the 12th District Lighthouse Inspector, Campbell Graham. On the East Coast, taller sites were better sites for lighthouses. However, this rule of thumb didn't fit the West Coast where taller means foggier. By the 1860s, the local fog pattern had been discovered. At 300 feet above sea level, the lighthouse was often covered by high fog so dense that its second-order lens was invisible from the straights below. In 1877, after many construction challenges, including the need for a handcarved, 118-foot long, hard-rock tunnel, the lighthouse was moved to its current location.
This was about as far as you could go, after this you had to walk out to the lighthouse. These are concrete structures that are part of the gun emplacements. Across the Bay is San Francisco.

Livingston, Montana JP court 11-19-12 Monday 1:30 pm.
Joel Boniek got a ticket for running a road-block last summer. His omnibus hearing was today downstairs in the law complex in Livingston.
The small room was packed, by the time the judge sat down people had brought in extra chairs for the spectators. Judge Linda Budeski put the Boniek case first, saying the room was full of supporters. After that, it did not go well for the judge.
The judge asked if Boniek had received full discovery. Boniek stated that he had not received a copy of the prosecutor's bond, which he had asked for in writing. Boniek had a stack of Montana code books before him, place marked many times. Boniek stated that the prosecutor needed a bond, a license with an oath affixed to the back, and proof of the taxes paid on license. He read the code numbers, constitution phrases and concept and read it quietly to the judge
Judge: who are you expecting to provide this information (bond & oath)?
Boniek: the law says she (Carrick) must provide it.
Boniek then reads from Title 7 and says the county commissioners must examine the bonds of every county employee to make sure they are in place.
" I talked to Commissioner Malone just the other day and he said not only hasn't he done that, he doesn't even know of any bonds. The employees are impersonating county officials".
Judge: "we can certainly issue subpoenas for the information you want.
Do you want to go ahead and set your trial date or do you want to wait?"
Boniek: "I don't see any way that we can proceed until we know that county officials are properly installed and properly holding in office. Otherwise, we have a bunch of County officials fraudulently holding office and nothing can happen."
Judge: "Ok an……. We ah……… can set the next one/month"
Boniek : "the next what one….?
[file position counter 03:15]
Judge … "the omnibus hearing" (to schedule trial date)
Boniek: "I think we should continue the omnibus, we have more matters to attend to…. I'm not sure I have the opportunity next month"
Judge: can we do it next month, do you want to do it in January?
Boniek: "well I'm objecting to you keeping me here….um…It seems to me that we can clear up some of these matters right now."
Judge : I'm not exactly sure how we could clear those up and its certainly not anything I have jurisdiction to …air [?]
Boniek: "well dismiss it and look at the law then"
Prosecutor Kathleen Carrick :"and I'll object to this whole…. This is not the time and place to be doing that. This is to set trial date only. Its not limine motion [pre-trial evidence rule], its not for argument, this is not the proper place to do this"
Boniek: "your honor, why is this woman speaking if she can't prove she is an official officer?"
(multiple people now talking including Carrick)
Judge: "she's a employee of the County"
Boniek: if she is an employee of the County, she needs to have a bond, I just read you the law
Carrick over Boniek (now red-faced): "I do not need to have a bond
Judge over Carrick: that's entirely up to the county commissioners, that's a separate branch of the government…. than this one…its not something that I have anything to do with"
Boniek: "uumpha..well maybe it is"
Judge: "well Mr. Boniek, I'm going to say that you are out of order with this…"
At that exact moment a man standing behind the prosecutor and up against the spectator's left wall yelled out "bullshit" as the judge was speaking. The man wore dirty coveralls and a three-corner hat. It was clear by his demeanor that the man was upset. The man continued to berate the court and the judge lost control of the incident. A mild argument ensued between the heckler and a 6' tall man in a dark blue shirt, apparently a plain clothes cop of some sort. Other police were summoned but the man remained, even after the judge quietly left the room.
Someone said "the judge has abandoned ship" and 'who is in charge here?'
Boniek stated that he was in control of the court and dismissed the case against himself. The plain-clothes policemen were arguing with Boniek and the heckler.
A 250-lb deputy came charging into the room and yelled that everyone must leave now. Half of the spectators filed out and half remained standing in the court, including Boniek, the heckler and 4 officers.
As Boniek collected his papers and books, a 5' 7" man in a dark blue shirt accosted him, apparently some kind of policeman. The policeman pointed to Boniek's waistband, which was covered with sweater and coat. The policeman suggested that Boniek was concealing a handgun, to which Boniek denied. The man continued to harass Boniek on this issue until a 6'1" deputy in uniform stated that he was familiar with Boniek's good character and that he could assure the policeman that Boniek had no gun.
Boniek and the remaining 10 people in the room then exited into the hallway to find it lined with a cheering crowd large enough to block the exit entirely.

India pitches to become aerospace offshoring base
Wed February 9, 2005 5:04 PM GMT+05:30
By Narayanan Madhavan
BANGALORE (Reuters) - India's state-run aerospace industry aims to take a page out of the IT sector's book by promoting itself as a potential offshoring base for foreign companies, Defence Minister Pranab Mukherjee said on Wednesday.
Joint ventures that take advantage of India's low-cost engineering and science skills can cut development and marketing costs, Mukherjee said at the inauguration of the bi-annual Aero India show in Bangalore.
"There is tremendous scope for outsourcing from India in areas where the companies are competitive," he said. "We are keen to welcome international collaborations that are in conformity with our national goals."
Before India's aerospace industry opened up to foreign companies as part of broader economic reforms in 1991, state-owned Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. (HAL) and other state agencies had focused for five decades on national defence.
HAL now makes aircraft doors for Airbus, part of Europe's EADS, and is set to produce 44 of the 66 Hawk trainer jets New Delhi is buying from Britain's BAE Systems Plc under a joint programme. BAE also has a software joint venture with HAL.
Mukherjee said India had the capability to make advanced alloys, process technologies and aircraft equipment, and the industry was considering diversifying into making civil aircraft.
While Bangalore is the centre for India's $16 billion IT and business services outsourcing industry, it is also the main centre for aerospace.
Since Indian and U.S. relations have improved in recent years, opportunities have opened up for U.S. companies in India.
Lockheed Martin Corp signed on Wednesday a technical agreement with HAL to share data on its P-3 Orion surveillance aircraft. India is considering buying F-16 fighter jets from Lockheed Martin.
"We are confident that integration of Indian industry such as HAL into our worldwide supplier base will enhance the attractiveness of our products to the government of India," said Dennys Plessas, regional vice-president in Lockheed's aeronautics unit.
On Tuesday, Boeing Co. signed up Indian software firm HCL Technologies Ltd. to develop a hosting platform for the flight test system for its new 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
France's Snecma, set to be taken over by Sagem, said it planned a 50-50 joint venture with HAL to make engine parts, investing an initial 300 million rupees ($7 million).
"Snecma looks at India as a priority for strategic development," the company said in a statement.

Had a felling I'd be mentioned in this thread. I never fought for the money..I even fought a few times for free. I always trained hard an my attitude to taking fights was "why not" an I wouldn't change it. So it didn't work out in my favour...not the end of the world could have been the other way an I could have had a record of 20-3-0 an been kicking ass in the UFC. But it didn't lol
It's a shame it's only limited to fighters.
As you can tell I just got bored and didn't incorporate all my comments into one post, this makes reading this thread so much harder.
Shame he couldn't fight any of them because he says he's around 82 and although they'd probably fight him he's a bit heavy, that leaves just Shaun Lomas!!... Shaun would murder him imo.
Although Shaun is missing fights, speaking to him recently he informed me his record is 29-42.

Yeah, 8057s have been switched to "internal" from "beta" on the Stanford side, so I doubt we'll see those again. I've been getting the 762x WUs.
Oh, cool, I'll have to take a look. I turned in a couple 8073s last night that I didn't think we credited, even though my logs show they were accepted by the collection server.

A Victorian Vision of The Wire
Apr 11, 2011
"The genius of The Wire lies in its sheer size and scope, its slow layering of complexity which could not have been achieved in any other way but the serial format."– The Hooded Utilitarian
I always felt that one of my all-time favorite shows, HBO's The Wire, never got it's full due. With such rich character story lines, I thought it could have lasted far more seasons than it did. Now we can at least imagine the show as a piece of serialized Victorian fiction. The show is incredibly smart and intelligent, one highly deserving of this Dickens comparison.

2008.90: Notes on lifting group actions
2008.90: James Montaldi and Juan-Pablo Ortega (2008) Notes on lifting group actions.
Full text available as:
|PDF - Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
84 Kb
Given an action of a Lie group G on a manifold M, and a cover N of M (such as the universal cover M-tilde) the natural question arises of whether the action lifts to a cover of M. In these notes, we address this question and determine whether the G-action itself lifts or whether it is necessary to pass to a cover of G (there is always a lift of the action of the universal cover G-tilde). The results are presumably well-known to experts, but do not seem to be available in print.
These notes started life as the first section of a paper on symplectic (but non-hamiltonian) group actions, though it was felt that they were too detailed for a paper primarily on symplectic reduction. We are therefore making them available as a MIMS preprint.
