EDITORIAL >> Charter schools
No longer will it be sufficient to show that a charter school would put some children in a different building with a lofty sounding educational doctrine. Charter applicants will have to show that they will offer something decidedly different and effective for children who are struggling in the regular school environment. It has not always been so in Arkansas.
Charter schools are a wonderful development, or at least the concept is. Thoughtful educators are invited to formulate programs that stimulate poor and low-achieving children who lag in the normal school environment. The intense KIPP schools are the best template. They have performed wonders with ghetto children. Helena-West Helena furnishes an excellent model, and now it will be expanded to Blytheville.
But charter schools also can be a ruse for establishing private schools with taxpayer support. They can be a version of the old academies set up in many communities when the public schools were desegregated at the end of the 1960s. They were a haven for white children in communities that had a large quotient of African-American and poor children. The education was no different, just the youngsters at the desks.
The charter student bodies are not all white, but the self-selecting students tend to be better motivated and their parents more involved. So it is no surprise when students like those in the eStem schools in downtown Little Rock score better than those in the regular schools. They also did better when they were in the same classrooms.
Great care needs to be taken in approving charter schools because they drain dollars and students, usually the self-motivating ones, from the public schools, leaving the schools worse and the children who are left behind in greater jeopardy.
Governor Beebe expressed some skepticism about the rapid growth of charter schools, especially in instances where they altered the racial composition in the public schools and undermined their desegregation. His appointments to the Board of Education have gradually replaced those of Mike Huckabee, who by 2006 had appointed all the members. In myriad ways, elections do make a difference.

Another day brings more departures from Penn State.
All-Big Ten kicker Anthony Fera has decided to transfer to Texas, dealing the Nittany Lions a major hit to their special teams.
Fera connected on 14 of 17 field goal attempts and was a semifinalist for the Lou Groza Award. He also averaged 42.0 yards on punts.
There was no announcement from either school after a report by ESPN, though Fera had been removed from the Penn State roster on the school's website.
The Associated Press, citing a person with knowledge of the decision who was speaking on condition of anonymity because neither school had announced the move, also reported that Fera was bound for Texas.
The move for his final two years of eligibility makes sense. The Longhorns are looking for replacement after placekicker Justin Tucker finished his career.
Fera gets to return to his native Texas after attending high school outside Houston at St. Pius X in Cypress.
Backup offensive lineman Ryan Nowicki also is expected to leave the school. He is headed to Illinois, according to multiple news media reports, including by The Arizona Republic. Illinois would be the first Big Ten school to take in a player from Penn State.
His decision means eight players have left Penn State since the NCAA announced sanctions against the football program last week. The highest-profile departure is running back Silas Redd, who will play for Southern California this season.

By Michael McCarthy, USA TODAY
ESPN completed the shift of the major bowl picture to cable television by announcing on Friday that it has added the Rose Bowl to the Bowl Championship Series package agreed to last fall.
The cable network will begin carrying college football's "Granddaddy of Them All" in January 2011. ESPN's corporate partner ABC has been the game's TV home since 1989.
LOOK BACK: ESPN to replace Fox for BCS games
"Given our acquisition of the other (BCS) games, it only makes sense to put the Rose Bowl alongside those games and let them each benefit from an integrated approach," Burke Magnus, senior vice president of college sports programming, told USA TODAY.
He says the move will provide viewers with a "unified approach" to postseason college football.
The Bristol, Conn.-based network already had the Fiesta, Orange, Sugar and BCS national championship game in the fold as part of a multiyear agreement that also begins in January 2011 and will replace Fox.
ESPN reaches 98.1 million homes, about 16 million fewer than receive traditional over-the-air networks, such as ABC and Fox.
Besides the new number on their TV dials, Rose Bowl viewers will not notice much else different, Magnus says.
The game's on-air announcers, analysts and behind-the-scenes production crew will continue to come from the ESPN family. The on-air look and feel will remain the same.
"We'll give it the same white-glove treatment we've always given it on ABC," he says.
ABC will continue to be a "vibrant home" for big name sporting events, says Magnus. Among them: the NBA Finals, Indianapolis 500, World Cup, SEC Men's Basketball Championship and Little League World Series.
But while the Rose Bowl is the latest major sports property to shift to pay cable from free over the air TV, it probably won't be the last. Asked whether some of those other ABC sports properties will eventually migrate to ESPN, Magnus said the company will make those decisions on a "case by case" basis.
As for the NBA Finals, he stated: "All I can tell you is we are totally committed to the NBA Finals on ABC."
Besides the BCS, other sporting events such as the NFL's Monday Night Football, the British Open and portions of Major League Baseball's League Championship Series and the Stanley Cup Finals have moved to cable from broadcast in recent years.
Among TV viewers and sports fans, the "perception/reality gap" between broadcast and cable is fading fast, says Magnus. "Today being Digital Transition Day will only accelerate that. It's no longer an issue. Or less of an issue every day."
Disney-owned ESPN will begin paying $125 million annually for Fox's portion of the BCS package as compared to $82.5 million Fox pays now.

well you didn't "make anybody mad", or at least not me. :)
I'm sure you'll likely be able to pick up as many as you need until
the new ones come out (maybe unless you're looking for huge
quantities). I know Netgate just got in a new shipment when I got mine
last week because the shipping of mine was delayed a bit until they
got their stock.
The Soekris 4801 is a very similar board that uses the same proc, so
that'll be affected by the same CPU discontinuation, but I'm sure
existing inventories will hold over for a while. Soekris also has a
new net5501 line that'll be out in March.
There are lots of alternatives for embedded hardware, but nothing at
the price point of a WRAP or 4801.
Even with the discontinued proc, with existing inventories that likely
exist I'm not really concerned about supply shortages, unless somebody
in the know (like a supplier like Netgate) comes out and says it's

Libhip merge proposal: The libhip branch mainly aims to provide a convenient way for system test of HIPL without full installation and configuration. In addition to this purpose, it also provides a socket API alike library approach for application to use HIP. Last by not least, since vanilla Linux TCP does not yet support long periods of disconnectivity [1] , libhip can be a solution in this condition. In the libhip branch, we build a library version of HIP for upper applications, which only exposes traditional socket like API. when using the libhip, hip control messages are transmitted over TCP or UDP, which is similar to TLS/DTLS but we have a unified protocol to handle both datagram and streaming traffic[2]. Compared to TLS/DTLS, this is a big advantage and it may be better use case for HIP[3]. In the libhip, most of code of hipd has been moved to lib/hipdaemon which then becomes a library for both hipd and libhip. By this way, the libhip can reuse the code of hipd to the max extend. This is also the reason why libhip can be a system test approach for hipd, especially in the process of base exchange, the libhip and hipd share the same code base. Meanwhile, the hip daemon, and other functionalities previous exist in the trunk, are kept unchanged and functioning after this merge.Why is the library called libhipdaemon?
would something else (e.g. "lib/hipl" and "libhipl") be more suitable?

With the loss of lefty relief pitchers Eric O'Flaherty and Jonny Venters to Tommy John surgery, the Atlanta Braves are down to one left-handed arm in their bullpen in the form of Luis Avilan. Ken Rosenthal reports that the Braves are already shopping for a good southpaw for their bullpen this year.
Rosenthal says general manager Frank Wren may target Mike Dunn, who has a 1.74 ERA in 23 appearances with the Miami Marlins this year, would be a perfect fit. Dunn was shipped off by the Braves in exchange for Dan Uggla in 2010.
But even with the injuries, the Braves are still incredibly deep.
"There is still a lot to like with this team," Rosenthal said.
We concur.

What relation would POSIX and Oracle codes have though? I'd expect them to be on completely different exception types. POSIX error codes would make sense on something like FileException, whereas Oracle codes would make sense on something like DatabaseException or OracleException. The problem you run into is when you also have PostgresException and SQLLiteException which derive from DatabaseException. You could have an error code in it, but it wouldn't necessarily mean much if it weren't tied to the specific database exception type. The hierarchy that can be ignored is when OracleException or PostgresException have derived types based on the error code (which then hopefully provide additional information beyond just the error code). But you still end up with a minimal exception hierarchy that everyone has to use if they want to stick to error codes. People can use FileException and its error code rather than FileNotFoundException and NotFileException, but they'd still have to use FileException rather than Exception to get the error code. - Jonathan M Davis

EDITORIAL: Albany lawmakers need to focus on the budget
With the governor's office twisting in chaos over a domestic violence scandal, you could say things are far from business-as-usual in Albany. But that may be good.
In the past, business-as-usual has brought New York dysfunction, high taxes and government spending sprees. This time last year, the economic fallout from banking failures was perfectly plain to read in foreclosure and jobless numbers. Yet how did state government react? It raised spending by nearly 9 percent, including $7 billion in new taxes and fees, only to return midyear to make painful cuts.

* TSX down 46.66 points, or 0.32 percent, at 14,743.12 * Eight of 10 main index sectors decline * Mining shares rise with commodity prices By John Tilak TORONTO, Oct 6 (Reuters) - Canada's main stock index dipped on Monday as energy and industrial sector shares declined, extending a drop recorded in the previous week. Equity markets have been battered recently, pulled lower by strength in the U.S. dollar, geopolitical concerns and the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Investors digested comments from New York Fed President William Dudley, who said he would be "delighted" to raise interest rates some time next year since it would be a sign of economic success, but for now a "very accommodative monetary policy" is still needed. The benchmark TSX, which has dropped in each of the past five weeks, has been coming down steadily after hitting a record high last month. The Canadian market's valuations are still too expensive, said John Ing, president of Maison Placements Canada, who expects the market to sell off further. "The TSX is trading very much on the upper end of the range," he said. "The market has been on fumes, it's been a richly valued." The Toronto Stock Exchange's S&P/TSX composite index closed down 46.66 points, or 0.32 percent, at 14,743.12. Eight of the 10 main sectors on the index were in the red. The energy sector gave back 0.7 percent, despite a gain in the price of oil. Suncor Energy Inc lost 0.8 percent to C$39.55, and Canadian Natural Resources Ltd fell 0.4 percent to C$41.36. Industrials dropped 1.1 percent. Canadian National Railway Co slipped 1.8 percent to C$77.72. Air Canada jumped 3.9 percent, to C$8.18, after reaching a tentative agreement with its pilots' union on a new 10-year contract a year and a half ahead of the expiry of the current contract. The materials sector, which includes mining stocks, benefited from strength in the prices of commodities such as gold, silver and copper. First Quantum Minerals Ltd advanced 0.9 percent to C$21.03, and Goldcorp Inc jumped 1.1 percent to C$25.76. (Editing by Meredith Mazzilli and Andre Grenon)

Most Affordable Places To Retire
September 23, 2013 by staff
Most Affordable Places To Retire, Are prices going up in Latin America? Yes. They never go down anywhere, do they? Unless, of course, there is a housing crisis such as the U.S. experienced in recent years.
There's been no housing crisis practically anywhere in Latin America (except, perhaps, the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico), so prices have stayed a slow-but-steady upward course. And no matter what you may have heard, although the influx of foreign retirees may be causing housing prices to rise in certain locations, we expats are not the primary contributors to pricing increases.
Remember, the U.S. and Canada don't have a lock on the baby boomer generation. Latinos who have spent their careers working abroad are coming home. They have money to spend and are looking to purchase a nice retirement home in Mexico, Ecuador, Panama, Argentina…. Like you, they know their retirement income will go much farther there and offer them the type of lifestyle they can't afford elsewhere.
And as in Ecuador, where we live, younger Latinos who left their home countries for work opportunities in Europe and North America are also now returning home. Many have been laid off and can no longer find jobs abroad. And other immigrants from neighboring South American countries are coming to places like Ecuador, too, where the economy is strong.
And, of course, there are Ecuadorians of retirement age who never left Ecuador. Many are looking to get out of the cities and buy a retirement home in the country or in a smaller city like Cuenca.
The same thing is happening throughout Latin America. But still, places like Ecuador remain a bargain.
As a Canadian journalist who spent time in Ecuador recently, including a month in an apartment in Cuenca, wrote: "A taxi ride from Old Town in Quito to the Mariscal district is a negotiated $3. A haircut costs $3 and a manicure and pedicure between $6-$12. A set menu called 'del dia' for lunch can be as cheap as $2.50 and that includes juice, potato and corn soup, entree of fish or pork (usually) and dessert. Lots of hotels and hostels offer rooms with private bathrooms for less than $50. And that includes breakfast that always has exotic fruit juices as part of the buffet. And free Internet. It's easy to see why so many North Americans are moving here. It's cheaper to live, eat and you can get 10 percent on your money in a savings account at the bank when you get your residence card."
And although real estate sales and rental prices in Latin America may be inching upwards, you'll still find plenty of bargains — especially if you're willing to take your time and look beyond the "gringo neighborhoods." Even in those areas, prices are far lower than you'll pay for comparable properties back home.

The Structure vs. Agency Debate Term Paper by French Paul
The Structure vs. Agency Debate
A discussion on why the structure-agency problem is important for social scientists and an evaluation of the attempts made to 'resolve' the issue.

This paper examines how the structure vs. agency debate is one of the most highly contentious dualisms within the social sciences. By providing an evaluation of the theories surrounding the debate and an overview of the nature of it, the paper seeks to explain the basis of the argument and the predominant schools of thought on the subject. Theoretically the paper concentrates on the monocausal theories of structuralism and intentionalism and the dialectical theories of structuration and the strategic-relational approach.
From the Paper:"The structure-agency debate has existed in one form or another for 'decades indeed arguably centuries' (McAnulla. 1999. p1) and has been based around philosophical questions and other similar dualisms. It seeks to address the extent to which individuals control their lives through their own actions in order to reach their goals, compared to how actors' lives are structurally controlled by external forces. Therefore, structure can be seen as the social and physical environment (context) in which individual actors inhabit, and which limits, causes or allows directly or indirectly our actions within. On the other hand, agency refers to an individual's ability to make changes or control their social and physical environment in order to reach their goals. "

Hi Simon, We went through a similar issue with rewriting due to our need to use doc ids that contained and/or could be requested via paths with one or more slashes.

Voters turned out in record numbers for the midterm elections and, from all available data at press time, it looks like it was a great day for the Democrats and a very black day for President George W. Bush and his (formerly) Republican Congress. Here in Montana, estimates are that upward of 70 percent of registered voters made their way to the polls. Sad to say, many of them were met by a variety of problems as election officials wrestled with the high turnout, new same-day registration laws, and what can only be deemed incompetence by those charged with overseeing the most basic function of democracy—our votes. But in the end, delayed or not, when the votes came in the news for the Democrats and our nation was overwhelmingly good.
As we go to press, Jon Tester has just been declared the victor in his ugly battle with Conrad Burns for the U.S. Senate. The win in this hard-fought campaign, which consumed most of the political energy in the state, means a great deal more than just putting Conrad Burns out to a pasture, which is long overdue. And whatever the final outcome of the few Senate races likely to end in recounts, it's at least clear that Bush's rubber-stamp Congress is a thing of the past. And maybe, just maybe, the sickening culture of corruption that has so permeated Congress and the White House will be diminished as the far too cozy relationships between the K-Street lobby and their corporate lapdogs in Congress gets turned upside down.
If anything, election day turned out to be a referendum on the Bush presidency—and a damning referendum at that. Only last week, the puffed-up balloon of Karl Rove, Bush's chief political strategist, argued vociferously with media interviewers about how much more he knew about the upcoming elections than they did. In spite of nationwide polls showing a looming upset of the Republicans, both Bush and Rove blustered on about how wrong the polls were and how they would be seeing Republican majorities returned to both houses of Congress when all the chips were counted.
But they were wrong on a massive scale. Instead, the Democrats took full control of the House, picking up 28 seats for a commanding 228-196 majority. For the first time in U.S. history, a woman is set to become Speaker of the House as Rep. Nancy Pelosi of San Francisco prepares to take over the gavel from Dennis Hastert. With that position, of course, comes the ability to rearrange committees starting from the Chair on down. Here in Montana, Democrat Monica Lindeen put up a brave fight against incumbent Dennis Rehberg, but even in his win, Rehberg will be going back to D.C. not as a conquering hero, but as a member of the minority facing some well-deserved retribution for the years of insulting, in-your-face treatment Republican majorities dished out to their Democratic counterparts.
In some ways, this outcome for Bush and the Republicans was entirely foreseeable as the Iraq War dragged on, the terrible drain on the nation's treasury continued, and the rhetoric of the self-titled "War President" wore thin. The scare tactics that carried Republicans to victory in the last election simply failed to deliver this time around. Perhaps, as the old tale goes, one can only cry "wolf" so many times before that cry falls on deaf ears. With nearly two-thirds of Americans saying they opposed the Iraq War, Bush put his fingers in his ears, his head in the sand, and continued to spew propaganda about how well the war is going. But in the end, the truth simply overwhelmed the White House spin.
What it means, of course, is that Americans have the opportunity to restore some much-needed checks and balances to our federal government. Perhaps now, given that Democratic leaders will have the power to subpoena Bush administration documents and officials, we can finally find out who colluded with Cheney to put together the disastrous energy bill of 2005 that was so laden with billions in oil company subsidies. Perhaps we'll smoke out the truth about the massive fraud and corruption by White House-friendly war profiteers. Certainly we should see the veil of secrecy which has characterized this administration pulled back and the workings of our government once again exposed to the light of day. And perhaps, finally, we'll begin to turn around the decline in personal freedoms and liberty that the Bush administration has forced down our throats under the guise of national security.
In the meantime, given the election-day screw-ups, Montanans might want to ask a few questions of their own. Instead of plastering his face on billboards all across Montana, perhaps Secretary of State Brad Johnson should have dumped that money into better training and preparation for the actual voting process. After all, he is the state's chief election official, and this was the first statewide vote for which he has been directly responsible. But considering that Gallatin County voters were still casting ballots at midnight while Yellowstone County officials were counting votes by hand because they didn't know they had to reset the machines after tallying absentee ballots, one would have to give our Secretary of State a less-than-favorable review for his efficacy.
Tallies aren't final, but it looks like Gov. Schweitzer will have to deal with an evenly divided Legislature, at best, and not his hoped-for Democrat majorities. More on this next week, when the dust has finally settled.
For now, though, Montana progressives should be dancing in the streets. All the blood, sweat and tears they poured into defeating Conrad Burns has paid off. The Bush presidency will finally be brought to accountability for its disastrous decisions, and our future looks a lot brighter than it did last week.

Diddy to remake 'King Of New York'
Listen to Diddy on iHeartRadio
Sean "Diddy" Combs is looking to put a new spin on the 1990 gangster film King of New York.
According to the "New York Post's" "Page Six," the hip-hop mogul is joining forces with Oscar-winning director Brian Grazer to put a fresh face on the film, which follows a drug lord who eliminates his competition and distributes the profits to the poor.
Grazer reveals that their new version will be different from the original, but "will have the same hard-core gangster feel." He also claims that Diddy wants to be in it and there's speculation that he could possibly take on the lead role, which was played by Christopher Walken in the original.
Production of the film could start as early as 2014.

"My thanks go out to the dedicated first responders who acted quickly to protect lives and assist in the evacuation. And my heart is with all the brave firefighters, who have been working around the clock to contain the blaze and protect their communities."
Washington, D.C. – Nevada Senator Harry Reid spoke on the Senate floor today regarding the wildfires raging in northern and southern Nevada, and on Democrats' plan to keep student loan rates low for an additional year. Below are his remarks as prepared for delivery:
I have been closely following the news of devastating wildfires raging in both northern and southern Nevada this week. My thoughts are with those who have been evacuated from their homes in southern Nevada's Mount Charleston area, where the Carpenter I fire has burned more than 30 square miles of forest and desert. My thanks go out to the dedicated first responders who acted quickly to protect lives and assist in the evacuation. And my heart is with all the brave firefighters, who have been working around the clock to contain the blaze and protect their communities.
It's impossible to say how many lives and homes they have saved. Unfortunately strong winds, dry conditions and summer heat are working against firefighters on Mount Charleston. And progress made to contain the blaze on Monday was erased on Tuesday, as the fire jumped a road and spread to new forest and desert land.
We thought residents would be able to return to their homes in Kyle Canyon yesterday, but unfortunately the fire has spread. I hope they'll be able to return to their homes soon. I commend the businesses that have offered free lodging to Nevadans displaced by this terrible fire.
The smoke can be seen from every part of the Las Vegas Valley. And I've heard from people in Nevada who have seen ash falling from the sky like snow.
I commend the Bureau of Land Management, the Forest Service and all of the other federal and state agencies that have assisted firefighters in containing the blaze and helped residents evacuate.
The Bison Fire burning south of Reno is the largest blaze ever recorded in Western Nevada. That fire was sparked by a lightning bolt on the Fourth of July, and now exceeds 40 square miles. Residents of the Pipeline Canyon area have been urged to evacuate.
I will continue to monitor the progress of these disasters in both southern and northern Nevada. I will reach out to Governor Sandoval to offer any assistance I can. And I will ensure that every federal resource be made available to support local officials and fire crews.
My best wishes go out to every American affected by the wildfires raging across the west. There are currently more than 20 active fires burning in 11 states, including Nevada neighbors California, Arizona, Idaho and Utah. I hope for the safety of thousands of firefighters working tirelessly to save lives and contain these fires.
Today the Senate will vote on whether to begin to debate on Democrats' plan to keep student loan rates low for an additional year.
Last month, Republican obstruction forced interest rates to double from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent for 7 million college students. If Congress fails to roll back this increase, those students will each pile on an additional $1,000 in debt to get a college education. These higher rates will be particularly harmful to low- and middle-income students who rely most on federal loans.
But students shouldn't suffer while we attempt compromise. That's why Democrats have proposed a one-year extension of last year's 3.4 percent rate. This extension will allow us to craft a long-term solution to mounting college debt without harming students in the short term.

America by Heart : Reflections on Family, Faith, and Flag by Sarah Palin (2010)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Now , if the Tea Party would be this cute.
Great book on American conservative values and their clash with the present liberal agenda. Rekindles the hope of what can be if another leader in the likeness of Ronald Reagan can reclaim the White House.
I enjoyed this book which was more like an essay on America than an autobiography. ( I read a biography last February, but wish I had read "Going Rogue," her autobiography instead.) Since I bought this at the Dollar Tree I didn't feel I had much to lose. It certainly made up for all the duds I got there. I pretty much agreed with everything she had to say.
I must admit, I didn't finish this book. Not that I don't like Sarah Palin. Not that this isn't a thoughtful book, or even that is not well written. It isn't even that it is uninspiring. I just felt this book is better geared towards the new conservative or those unfamiliar with Palin's political philosophy.
Palin's prose is fluid, quite unlike the fractured syntax common at her unscripted public appearances, a total reboot that suggests an excellent ghostwriter.

Product Description
This is my America, from my heart, and by my heart. I give it now to my children and grandchildren, and to yours, so they will always know what it was like in America when people were free.Since the publication of her bestselling memoir, Going Rogue, in 2009, former Alaska governor Sarah Palin has traveled the country extensively. She has visited cities and towns in almost every state, dropped in on military bases, given talks and speeches to small groups and at massive rallies. Throughout her travels, she has been privileged to meet thousands of Americans—ordinary men and women who have shared with her their hopes and dreams, their love of country, and their fears about what lies ahead. Governor Palin, inspired by these encounters, celebrates in her new book the enduring strengths and virtues that have made this country a beacon of liberty and hope for the rest of the world. America by Heart is a highly personal testament to her deep love of country, her strong roots in faith, and her profound appreciation of family. Ranging widely over American history, culture, and current affairs, Governor Palin reflects on the key values that have been such an essential part of her own life and that continue to inform her vision of America's future. The book also includes brief readings from classic and contemporary texts that have moved and inspired her, as well as portraits of Americans, both famous and obscure, whom she admires. Informed by Palin's own principles and deepest feelings, graced with intimate memories, this remarkable book gives us a close-up view of an extraordinary woman who is not afraid to speak out and defend the American values in which she so deeply believes.
A Look Inside America by Heart

(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:00:33 -0400)
In her new book, Palin celebrates the enduring strengths and virtues that have made the United States great. Framed by her strong belief in the importance of family, faith, and patriotism, the book ranges widely over American history, culture, and current affairs, and reflects on the key values--both national and spiritual--that have been such a profound part of Governor Palin's life and continue to inform her vision of America's future.… (more)

Here are features of 303 Aerospace Protectant that will surely benefit your life:
Unbeatable UV protection. 303 Aerospace Protectant
has a SPF of 40, the most UV protection offered by any surface protectant.
It will prevent drying, cracking, and fading caused by overexposure to the sun. It was originally formulated for aerospace and aviation applications, machines that come much closer to the sun than your vehicle. 303 Aerospace Protectant is the single most effective protectant on the market.
Stain resistant. 303 Aerospace Protectant
repels water and dirt, and resists stains.
Treated surfaces require less cleaning and will remain in like-new condition. It restores the original finish to vinyl, rubber, plastic, acrylic, finished leather, and fiberglass. 303 is never oily or greasy.
303 Aerospace Protectant
on vinyl convertible tops, vinyl seats, tonneau covers, car bras, vinyl awnings, dashboard, trim pieces, and all over your boat.
It is safe on vinyl, rubber, plastic, acrylic, finished leather, and fiberglass. 303 Aerospace Protectant provides the best protection you can provide for a multitude of materials. Nothing works better on clear plastic to prevent yellowing, hardening, and clouding.
Most recommended by manufacturers. 303 Aerospace Protectant
is recommended by name by more manufacturers of awnings, RVs, tonneau covers, vinyl convertible tops, and spa covers than any other protectant in the world.
I thought it would be fun to include a "Did You Know" section on
303 Aerospace Protectant.
"Did you know?"
• Did you know that Orvis, America's Oldest Mail Order Company since 1856, has used 303 Aerospace Protectant as a fly line dressing since 1987?

Great All Around Protectant
November 23, 2016
I use 303 Aerospace Protectant on ALL of the gaskets around doors and windows. It is also good for treatment of wiper blades and as an alternative for tire dressings if you want a finish that is not exceptionally glossy but has a clean look.
Easy application and long lasting

303 Protectant

I've been using 303 Protectant for years on all my vehicles until they quit selling it in Canada to my disappointment. This product is the best out there and lasts a long time and is worth the extra trip to the US to purchase a fine product. Thank you Autogeek.
Nice low sheen and not greasy to the touch.

I've been using 303 for many years
July 2, 2016
It's the only thing I'll use on my rolling stock.for plastic, rubber and just about everything but the paint. I've had dasboards dry out and crack from products containing protoleum products. 303 protects things just as sunscreen protects your skin. I have turned many motor heads on to it. The product doesn't leave your dash, seats or anything else with a greasy shine.
protects everything from the sun and ozone. Use it on your headlight and taillight covers to keep them from getting cloudy.
A tad on the pricey side, but worth it in the long run.

I have an old bass boat that has oxidized. The 303 brought out the fade and restored it back somewhat. I think that the protectant put some shine back into boat and it's now UV protected. Great product, works better than I thought.

Best Product on the Market
May 9, 2016
I've been using 303 for my classic car convertible tops for many years. Recently, I restored some vinyl upholstery, then uses 303....WOW. Results are phenomenal. Next, I used it to treat an outdoor canopy top as recommenced by the manufacturer of the replacement top (I went through two tops in 4 years). I expect this top to last longer. I'm now using it on all vinyl bumpers, interior dash, door panels, etc. Good for anything vinyl, canvas, leather or rubber. Previously to discovering this product, I used Armorall. Disaster! It yellows and washes off too soon. Buy the big bottle. Dozens of uses and it WORKS AS ADVERTISED.
Multi-use Easy wipe on wipe off WORKS! Durable Not slick or greasy
Costs more than competitive products.

My standard for vinyl and rubber
March 3, 2016
I discovered 303 a decade ago and have used it on all my vehicle vinyl and rubber seals. While I've experimented with other products I have yet to encounter anything I like more than 303. Long lasting, easy to apply, and low sheen. It's perfect for my personal tastes. I even use it on my watercraft and have yet to detect any UV discoloration or deterioration.

A truely legit product
May 21, 2015
I have used this specific product for seven years, after referred to it by my father in-law. I use it religiously on plastic and rubber that will not take to wax. I enjoy detailing and keeping my vehicles and trailer looking fresh with protection from UV exposure as we do not have a garage. 303 fits the need if protection and looks are ones goal. I have a 2011 black Silverado Z71, a 2010 white Aerolite travel trailer, a 2012 Kawasaki quad that I keep in showroom condition, (the Quad looks great and I do use it). Given the fact they are outdoors 24/7, and my old fashion philosophy of being preventative with staying ahead of the game. This product is legit.
It is user friendly and does what they say it does. Try it on your tires if nothing else, simply amazing.
None, given my history using it, and at my picky age of 65, it passes my scrutiny.

Been using 303 for many years on my car interior. My 12 year old BMW seats, dash, plastic and panels looked new after twelve years. Leaves a matte finish not greasy. Can be effective on covering minor surface scratches. Also great to use on tires, rubber trim, and headlights as well. Recommended it to my Dad who loves it as well.

303 has great products! I previously used their waterproofing product to seal my wife' s 2006 SAAB covertible top which was leaking and it did a great job sealing it. This 303 protectant did not disappoint me! I just used it to protect the new vinyl top, which I recently had replaced on my 2005 Cadillac DeVille, from the Florida sun. The top looks great and is now protectected from the sun's destructive UL Rays! I highly recommend this 303 product and, also, their canvas waterproofing product!

Meet My Family
I thought I would take a minute and let you meet my family. I talk about my husband a lot on the air and every once in awhile I talk about my dogs. We don't have kids - we have dogs. Marty and Jack rule our life. Marty is my dog and Jack is my husbands. Marty came into our lives after I found him on craigslist. His former mommy was having another baby and Marty was not getting along with her 1year old son. Mart can't be around children so she had to give him up. It was a sad moment seeing her kiss him goodbye but we all believe she did the right thing. Now, Marty is my love... he is a Lhasa Apso and is very protective of mamma. He loves bones, he loves his toys (Mr. Will, Mousey and Mr. Hog) and hates going outside. He hates his brother and doesn't want Jack to have any contact with me. He barks a lot so we have to put a bark collar on him and doesn't like visitors. Needless to say, he is hard to work with. He is a big pain in the neck. We have spent hundreds in training and tried everything on this earth to make him stop being such a stinker, but, it is what it is. I still love him. Every mamma loves her kids with unconditional love. Here is Marty:
Here are the boys together.
Jack on the other hand is kind of a diva (as seen above). He is a very proud dog and does not mind taking your spot or sitting on your lap while you are trying to do something. Jack is a little love. He was rescued by Rocky Mountain Rescue after living on the Denver streets. He was thin but not too bad. They thought he may have been homeless a week or two, nonetheless, he was lonely and hungry. We saw Jack and we instantly fell in love. His given name by the rescue was Colson but my husband loves Duck Dynasty where Si always says "Jack!". So it's obviously what we had to name him. Jack is very friendly, loves chicken, love to snuggle with daddy and sleep on daddy's head. Jack is part Lhasa and part Schnauzer. His tall legs enable him to watch dad make dinner as he leans up on the cupboards. He puts up with Marty until he can't contain himself anymore and then he fights his brother. It's been a hard battle getting him to stop and my husband has been bit many times. He is getting getter though. We are all learning how to react to one another. Here are some pictures of Mr. Jack.
By the way, Jack like the Green Bay Packers and Marty likes the Rockies and Broncos.

Get the legal help you need at a fixed price. No hidden fees or long-term commitment.
Immigration attorneys (sometimes called "green card lawyers") represent people who want to come to the United States, whether it be for schooling, work, or just a visit. Immigration lawyers can also help undocumented immigrants found living in the U.S. without permission. Immigration laws govern who can enter the U.S., how long they can stay, what they can do while they are here, and how they can become American citizens. If you are not a U.S. citizen and want to apply for a green card or other visa, or if you are already in the U.S. and have been threatened with deportation, an immigration lawyer can help you.

Ask a Dentist. Get Answers to Your Dental Questions.
Great question, let me help you.
so the left is more swollen than the right?
Only right side is swollen.
OK. What is going on with the left side?
Left side has no issues.
OK. So, are you having tooth sensitivity?
If the cheek is thick/raised, this is normally a sign of "cheek-chewing", which is a result of grinding/clenching during your sleep.
It goes away when the grinding/clenching is controlled. It is best to wear a custom-made nightguard for this.
If the gums around the teeth are raised/swollen, then this is typically a sign of tooth or gum infection.
Tooth infection will show up on an x ray, so if your dentist took x rays and didn't see an abcess, this rules out the teeth.
This makes me think it may be more gum-related. Periodontal disease is infection of the gum tissue that causes raised, inflamed gum tissue
Have some on my top teeth but nothing major. My first symptom was a slight pain on the left side. I have only back molar. The teeth prior to that were cracked during a attempted root canal. This area where the two are missing are the mail swelling.
So, your swelling is around missing teeth?
Which is now under the back molar. Under the back molar there is even sever swelling. dentist first mentioned salivary gland.
There is a good chance that if a root tip was left under the gum tissue from tooth extractions you had done in the past, this would lead to infection around these root tips
I would be surprised if your dentist did not see this on the x-ray though
Have you had trauma to your jaw?
I was put on penicillin for 7 days. Took 500mg 4 times a day and made no change.
You very well may have a salivary gland obstruction.
Here is a good site http://www.entassociates.com/salivary_glands.htm
Salivary stones can obstruct a gland (in your case, the submandibular or parotid)
No trauma to jaw. Just showed up. The attempted root canals were 20 years ago.
this will cause swelling, and must be surgically treated
OK. I believe the salivary gland is your issue
By process of elimination
Salivary gland swelling can occur when one of the ducts that carry saliva from the salivary gland to the mouth is blocked. Pain may occur, especially during eating.
The most common cause of blockage is a stone. Salivary gland stones are most common in adults; 25% of those with stones have more than one. A stone can form from salts contained in the saliva. Blockage makes saliva back up inside the duct, causing the salivary gland to swell. A blocked duct and gland filled with stagnant saliva may become infected with bacteria. A typical symptom of a blocked salivary duct is swelling that worsens just before mealtime or particularly when a person eats a pickle (a sour pickle's taste stimulates saliva flow, but if the duct is blocked, the saliva has no place to go and the gland swells).
To diagnose other causes of swelling, a dentist or doctor may perform a biopsy to obtain a sample of salivary gland tissue and examine it under a microscope.
If a salivary duct is blocked by a stone, a dentist can sometimes push the stone out by pressing on both sides of the duct. If that fails, a fine-wire-like instrument can be used to pull out the stone. As a last resort, the stone can be removed surgically.
Anything else I can help you with?
My dentist suggested a cone xray to have done as last resort . I went to my regular dr and he said lets wait awhile before going to oral surgeon. It's getting more and more thicker and is almost involving cheek tissue.
An oral surgeon is the best doctor you could go to
They would be able to treat an obstructed salivary gland, or a tumor, if that is what it ends up being diagnosed as
Thank you very much. This is making me a little nervous since it is not getting better on its own.
