Housing Slump Not Over Yet
State of the Nation's Housing: It's Not Over 'Til It's Over
Charlotte, North Carolina is finally getting a small taste of what places like Las Vegas and Miami consider old news, and it's no party scene. As prices there started slipping the city became the nation's last to finally hit the downward housing trend. Prices in Charlotte are nowhere near the huge percentage drops seen in hard hit Vegas and Miami, but their one-month slip is significant because no city was safe from falling prices in April according to The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index.
Another reporting force, Harvard's Joint Center for Housing Studies, released its annual "State of the Nation's Housing" report on Monday with results that are not hopeful. The report acknowledges that the housing slump is still chugging along, and the Center's director Nicolas P. Retsinas says this one will likely take longer to bounce back than other downturns because of the tight credit market and millions of foreclosures.
How bad is it? When they looked at leading economic indicators like housing starts, new-home sales and existing-home sales, the report concluded the current slowdown rivals the worst since the World War II era.

The Duchess of Cambridge is 'feeling better' after spending another day in hospital with acute morning sickness, St James's Palace said on Tuesday night.
A smiling Prince William was seen leaving the King Edward VII hospital yesterday, reassuring us all that Kate is doing well.
A spokesperson for the Royal couple said, "The Duchess of Cambridge is continuing to feel better. She and the Duke are immensely grateful for the good wishes they have received. She will remain in hospital at present and will continue to be treated for Hyperemesis Gravidarum."
We're thrilled to hear that Kate, whose pregnancy was confirmed by the Palace on Monday, is feeling a little better. Now excuse us while we get back to naming her unborn child, decorating the nursery and relishing in maternity wear fit for a Royal.

Governor Palin: Enough is Enough of This Big Brother Government

The government needs to stay out of our garage, refrigerator, church, gun safe, bookshelf, etc. America, are you willing to give up freedom for more government control?
Take a look at this article linked at the top of Drudge. Government is out of control and too many citizens are sheepishly and sleepily okay with it all. This is not what generations of Americans have fought and died for. We should be ashamed of ourselves if we give another pass to government on yet another step in the erosion of freedom and privacy.

In the first known case in Minnesota, a woman has become pregnant from a human donor egg that was frozen and thawed before it was fertilized and implanted.
Doctors used in vitro fertilization to achieve the pregnancy for the 48-year-old woman, who is nine weeks pregnant.
Her pregnancy means egg freezing is now available in Minnesota, though it's a controversial technology that many say isn't ready for wide-spread use.

Looks like fun
Bike Forum
The new red Fort Bill track
Looks mighty fine. I don't like the boardwalk stuff - but thats about my head not anything actually wrong with it.
mmmmmm, yeah!
Looks luverlee. Think we'll be visiting later in the year.
I suspect the board walk is a means to an end, its a big peat bog up there, would be very hard to build a track otherwise. The DH is a "raft" of hardcore on top of the peat iirc.
Designed by Brio?
quite uninteresting first 3 minutes looks like it's just a means to getting across the bog to the good part, which does look fun!.
Who are the riders?
looks great - think the afan weekend away will become a fort bill weekend away now!
WILLIAM. Fort William.
WILLIAM. Fort William.
like that !!!!
WILLIAM. Fort William
It does look fun, but all that wood is going to be well slippery in the wet.
looks fun. does it start from the gondola station?
no it's not it'll be covered in grip paint.
the boardwalk sections on the proper track are prob the grippiest parts of the track.
very close to the gondola station, Jambo
hmmm. about time for another roadtrip from pastyland i reckon.
I shall be paying a visit forthwith.
That looks superb!
Well if it's grip painted then fair enough, although it does wear pretty quick.
We've been trialling some epoxy/sand grip stuff (that's normally used for decking) at Stainburn on the NS and it seems to holding up fairly well.
Only been up to fort william biking once (ten under the ben) - how busy is this trail going to get? looks like it could become packed.
Jambo - bring us a steak one.
Simon - I'd doubt it'll get that much traffic it'd wear away in a season, the DH track stuff holds up fine and will see far more runs what with the yearly SDA, NPS, & WC (300* riders at each) and now the DH endurance too
Looks ace! Def a trip up there soon.
Yep, looks good fun that. Is it actually open yet, that bit at the end by the digger looked unfinished?
It says in the video title that it's meant to open on the 24th of June.
Those that have ridden it from our club say the red rating is a bit on the under-estimating side compared to say the Laggan and Golspie blacks that we ride regularly! Not wanting to put you all off but it might be a bit tougher than it looks in that vid. The penalty for getting it wrong on some of the shore sections would probably qualify you for flying pay before you impact. I hope to give it a shot soon.
That looks superb but I predict carnage!
Imagine what it's going to be like with yer average lycra-wearing xc rider mincing down that with a group of hard-charging TLD pajama-wearing DH'ers right up their arse...
Yeaaaaah. Watching the vid, it doesn't look too difficult, your standard glentress red runner should be OK as long as they keep the head and don't get carried away... But the penalty for failure is going to be a lot higher than the average red. That, and all that boardwalk is going to be new to most folks, and throw in the weather to boot, and distracting views... There's going to be some pain
Watching it, I did think it could do with a bit more width in places, not because it needs it to be ridden but because it's got huge long single-bike-wide sections that some people will want to absolutely bomb down, and others will mince. It'd be good to have passing places. I can't wait though, have to ride it...
Northwind - to me that looked much harder than Glentress red
That looks superb but I predict carnage!
Indeed,like a rider on a Gemini falling off maybe......
(Oh that was on the 'proper'FortBill d/h run)
looks like a lot of fun. *needs to plan roadtrip soon*
To me, it looks like a Red-Downhill track as opposed to the Red-XC tracks at the likes of the 7 stanes and whatnot. So I dont think it compares too directly, and it will be tougher.
It certainly looks like the penalty for getting it wrong could be some serious air time, a lot of the jumps look like blind take offs.
It'll be a case of ride fairly restrained the first couple of times, then, if you've any arms left from the techy sections, blast down.
looks like fun.
Looks like some people will be able to give further justification to their 6" all mountain bikes eh?
A tenner says there'll be a handrail on that hillside boardwalk section this time next year.
Looks great though.
Dunno if a handrail would really make it safer. Those little boardwalk jumps/drops scare me for some reason - it's not like it looks hard, just a mental thing. At least the hillside below looks mostly grassy!

An American Soccer Fan's Musings
With another United States – Mexico matchup on the books, let us take a moment to think about this rivalry in a broader context. I have drawn an interesting mix of criticism and praise for my suggestion that, at least right now, the Mexican side seems better than the American team. The United States has managed to dominate the series of late, in large measure because the American side has taken a more intelligent and calm approach to the rivalry. The Mexican players are more likely to boast unnecessarily, to commit foolish fouls, and to otherwise show the signs of a team under much greater pressure to win without the emotional resources to overcome its fans lofty expectations.
That said, Mexican fans will likely eventually need to come to grips with the fact that the American team will not just continue their head-to-head dominance, but will also soon occupy a much more prominent role internationally. There are a number of reasons for this, but in my estimation here are the five biggest reasons:
1. Momentum. Isaac Newton famously noted that objects in motion tend to stay in motion. Despite the setbacks suffered in 2006 and 1998, over the last 15 years the United States has been on an incredible ascent. They used to be a mere exhibition opponent against top international competition- the quintessential homecoming opponent that you could beat up on and look great doing it. Now, the United States has become less phased by playing top South American and European competition.
On the other hand, Mexico has been very consistent. This is both good and bad; good because you can usually count on them to reach the Round of 16 at the Cup, but bad because they never really look like doing much more than that. To be sure, Mexico has a new crop of youngsters who look pretty classy, but it isn't clear to me that Castillo, Guardado or Ochoa represent a clear improvement over Borgetti, Blanco or Marquez in their primes.
Now, the American fan needs to remember the second part of Newton's maxim, namely that, "objects in motion tend to stay in motion, unless acted upon." In international football, there are myriad forces acting against the continued ascent of any team. After all, to climb up the ladder, you have to do so at the expense of other nations, most of which are equally dedicated to improving, or at least maintaining, their position. As such, it's always important to remember that it's much easier to go from bad to good than from good to best.
2. Youth System. Though the American youth system has been much maligned for its apparent exclusion (or at least inability to include) of Latinos, blacks and urban youth, there are more good things about it than bad things. First, the sheer size of the system makes it the largest in the world. More American kids play soccer than Little League baseball and youth basketball combined. Though most kids eventually turn in their soccer boots for football cleats or high-top sneakers, this is slowly changing. With more kids playing organized soccer at an early age, the talent pool from which the next generation of players will be drawn is an order of magnitude bigger even than the one that produced Donovan, Beasley, Bocanegra and the rest of the current USA starters.
Critics of soccer in the United States love nothing more than to bash college soccer as detrimental to the development of the game in the United States. True, if the United States depends on college soccer to identify and develop its talents, then it is in trouble. What college soccer provides, though, is a forum for thousands of young people who might not be at their developmental apex in their teens, to continue to grow, develop and season into more polished players. A good analogy to draw is with the NBA. Great players like Kobe Bryant or Kevin Garnett will always look to begin their professional careers as quickly as possible, but the NBA is full of players who have elected to stay in college, often because they were not ready -either physically or in terms of the development of their game- right out of high school. Similarly, for every Adu or Altidore who begins his career early, there is an Edu or Dempsey who college to hone their games. As the United States progresses, I believe that many players (not most) will be college attendees or graduates, and this will provide a competitive advantage for the US. Perhaps as importantly, college soccer also provides a venue for players to develop their knowledge, thus eventually allowing them to join the next generation of coaches.
3. Major League Soccer. You really cannot underestimate the impact of the MLS on the growth of American soccer. All of the points that I make about the college system, apply them here at ten times the volume. For the most part, the league has been very well run, and though the near future likely will not allow it to compete with the top leagues in Europe, the day may be close at hand where the MLS has better quality at the top and greater depth throughout than does the Mexican league. Indeed, no reasonable observer would assert that Mexican league soccer will compete on the level of, for example, the Premiership before the MLS does. As is often the case when comparing American entities to their Mexican counterparts -in both sporting and non-sporting contexts- the United States simply has a much higher ceiling. People like CNNSI's resident troglodyte Luis Bueno often lose sight of this important fact when uttering foolishness about Mexico winning a World Cup before the United States.
4. Money. You can't buy happiness, you can't buy love, and you can't buy a championship, but having nice things doesn't hurt, having a pocket full or money will make you a little more attractive to the ladies, and having enormous resources at your disposal can make pursuing a championship just a little easier.
By western European standards, soccer in the United States may seem like a relative pauper. The United States Soccer Federation does not have the riches or clout of the English FA or the DFB in Germany, but it does have resources. First, the substantial investment of Nike and other corporate sponsors has allowed the construction of some truly first-rate developmental facilities that have attracted increasingly impressive talent. In addition, if the relative prosperity of soccer families in the United States has a benefit, it is that top youth teams in the United States have access to training, fitness, facilities, nutrition science, travel, tournaments and clinics that far outpace what most Mexican youth have access to.
5. The weight of expectations. From the moment Landon Donovan's header sealed Mexico's fate in the 2002 World Cup, Mexico has slowly been ground down by the weight of unreasonable fan expectations that get constantly frustrated by their inability to beat their hated rival to the north. By contrast, American fans are fewer, generally less critical, and are not given over as much to histrionics when their team falls short. Distilled down, Mexican fans give the stick, and American fans offer carrots. For whatever reason, Mexico has never responded well to this adversity. Good teams can become psychically damaged by failing to meet expectations. Take England, for example. Certainly one of the top ten footballing nations in the world, their fans and players are in constant agony in large measure because they are not good enough to win the World Cup. They are a good team, maybe even a great team, but they haven't been the best team in four decades. Similarly, Mexico is a good team, but just not a great team; same with the United States. The difference is that American fans have come to accept this reality (for now), while the Mexican fans have not.
2010 World Cup Soccer Starts
1 of many World Glass Soccer Shirts have you found yours? Think about considering the black one of the German team, that is in the semi-finals? Certainly if you are linked with your national team, then there is no conversation, but if you are fascinated by black then you should consider the one of the already 3 times soccer winners.
You could also go for the All Blacks rugby outfit from Fresh Zealand, but the choice were trying to make is among precisely what is the hottest matter right now. There are still four teams participating in at the time being in S. africa: The Netherlands, Paraguay, Germany and Spain, ie. the four strongest in the world. The only thing, typically to clarify is in which order.
If you consider the soccer china jerseys of these 4 groups you can come plan some fancy colors, such as orange, blue-white-red, white, red. But where is the black? The known color of the German born team's jersey is white, but this year they have made an exclusive appearance with their black clothing, quite unusual.
Now that the games are arriving to an end and this there are only two matches left, the question remains who may be going to be the winner between Germany and Uruguay for the next Place and between Spain and The Netherlands, who is heading to win the world title?
Strong and important teams, such as Portugal, Italy, UK, Brazil, Perú got lost on the way and the 2 most effective teams of 2010 are going to face the other person in Johannesburg on eleventh July.
What about the controversial World Cup sports balls? They have offered to the elimination of the strongest teams? Or perhaps is it the Octopus Paul, that foresees the outcome of the video games, who is really in charge of the results?
Nobody has put in any words on the world cup soccer shoes, but it is a must to make a choice on the soil Cup soccer shirts. Purple of the Spanish team or Orange of The Netherlands? Or maybe the two as a tönung flowing from one in the other?

Dear Desktop Engineering Reader:
I'm in the doghouse at home again because, in a jolt of health consciousness, I bought the low-sodium version of a family favorite junk food. It's useless beyond compute. It reminded me of a time I wasted money on some software for work that functioned just enough so that it became abundantly clear that it wasn't up to snuff. I've heard similar gripes from engineers about those MCAD-embeddable analysis applications. But I've only heard good things about STAR-Works CFD software from CD-adapco.
Which makes sense, of course. There's CFD software, and then there's CD-adapco's CFD software. These guys have been at the forefront of CFD development for more than 25 years now. They know their salt.
STAR-Works 4.14 integrates directly into SolidWorks, becoming a natural, nudge-free part of your SolidWorks design cycle. Since STAR-Works 4.14 is powered by CD-adapco's world-class STAR-CCM+ solver technology, it is industrial strength. Only it does not make you suffer trying to use out-of-your class power. In spite of its power, STAR-Works is for designers and project engineers who need to ensure that they are on the right track, not analysis Ph.D.s, although the high priests can certainly leverage it.
In practice this means you can use simple menus or a simulation wizard within SolidWorks to quickly set up and run such simulations as laminar and turbulent flow, thermal load, conjugate heat transfer, rotating machinery, compressible and incompressible flow, and even porous materials. Meshing is a one-button affair and, since STAR-Works 4.14 creates meshes directly from your SolidWorks model, you don't have to fuss with exporting the file and cleaning it up.
STAR-Works 4.14 maintains full associativity with the model throughout the simulation process, so any change your simulation inspires you to make to your design becomes a part of the solution as fast your workstation can process it. STAR-Works even stores boundary conditions and meshes within the model.
The net gain is that STAR-Works 4.14 lets you start optimizing your design as soon as practical and when you feel like it. Think of that a minute. You can shorten your product development cycle with CFD optimization that does not dominate your concentration or waste time. And you're using a top-shelf CFD system, not some useless, low-powered software that leaves you feeling as if you're in the doghouse again.
STAR-Works 4.14 is part of the STAR-CAD Series, which also includes versions for CATIA, NX, and Pro/ENGINEER. Read more about STAR-Works 4.14 in today's Pick of the Week write-up and hit the links to sign up for more stuff like a free webinar, Best Practices, or a demo CD.
Thanks, Pal. – Lockwood

I have experimented running Sublime Text under Virtual Box (on a Mac OSX host). Everything is fine using the --opengl switch or the "renderer opengl" option. It's slow largely because Virtual Box's support for OpenGL is still experimental, but it works.
Only one quirk; when the cursor is in the text area, it becomes almost invisible. It's black and thin, and so disappears over a dark background. I do not recall having the same issue when running natively (using Bootcamp on my Mac). Does this make sense?
The cursors are rendered with line primitives, while most of the rest of the UI is rendered with textured quads. It sounds like the OpenGL under VirtualBox simply isn't drawing GL_LINES correctly.

Inspired by Monza who mentioned it was National Library Day, and since it also is a day for reading in the bath tub. How can we enjoy books and avoid them getting soaked? The library can supply you with audio books - imagine a nice tub, wine.... and listening to an actor reading for you!

Not too much sewing going on 'round these parts, mostly because I've been living in my kitchen instead of the sewing room. Last weekend I hosted my first dinner cooked entirely from the Ad Hoc at Home cookbook - I'm affectionately calling these dinners, which I hope to become a monthly or bi-monthly deal, Ad Hoc at [my] Home. For the inaugural feast, I invited over a few fellow Thomas Keller groupies and got to work planning the menu. For those of you who are not familiar with Ad Hoc, a single fixed 4 course menu is served nightly - salad, entree, cheese and dessert. This menu is posted on the website each morning, changes daily and is based on what is fresh locally. I did let my guests know most of the menu ahead of time as they were bringing over drinks to complement the food.
Since I was busy scurrying around the kitchen, WeezerMonkey was kind enough to grab my camera and document the food and prep. I'm so happy she took these pictures as they are way more artistic than what I could have done and are a great way to remember this first dinner.
First course: Green Bean and Potato Salad with Proscuitto
Second course: Santa Maria Style Tri-Tip, Creamed Spinach and Brioche
Third course: Camembert, honey, pecans and water crackers
Fourth course: Vanilla ice cream, Strawberry coulis and Bouchons
I think that everything turned out pretty well, with the glaring exception of the bread. I somehow completely forgot to add the salt to the dough. Did you know that bread without salt tastes like ass? No joke. All that work and it looked beautiful, but tasted so very icky. :/ Otherwise, I'd say the food was two thumbs up! I had a lot of fun prepping, cooking and then being able to sit down for a relaxed dinner filled with great conversation and tons of laughs.
The more I make from this cookbook, the more I fall in love with it. And I can't wait sharing more its wonderful dishes with friends and family throughout the year. :)

Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Orrin Hatch (R-Utah) issued the following statement after the Obama Administration announced the United States and European Union (EU) will formally launch negotiations on a Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) agreement:
"With the American people still reeling from the recent recession, a strong and aggressive trade agenda would provide a real opportunity for our job creators, our farmers and our workers. Today's formal launch of the U.S.-E.U. trade negotiations is a strong step forward. A comprehensive trade agreement with our European allies could stimulate economic growth on both sides of the Atlantic while creating tremendous new export opportunities for U.S. workers. While I am pleased the President is formally launching negotiations today, it ultimately won't matter unless these negotiations can be concluded and enacted into law. That is why it is imperative that the President show some real leadership on trade and begin working with Congress in earnest to renew Trade Promotion Authority (TPA). Without TPA, it is very hard to see how we can negotiate a strong trade agreement with Europe, and with the Pacific Rim nations through the Trans-Pacific Partnership."

Most of the time the service does not work or part of it . I. Bought to numbers for my kids 9 months ago. Nothing works on Bemilo. I have had replaced sims. New numbers given to me with no notice , data not working texts not working and when I finally give up, they will not provide the PAC codes for me to take the numbers with me. , rejected guardian numbers. They never call you back despite 15 requests over 3 months and the coverage is dreadful. It is good to try and get security for kids phones, and I do not mind paying the high prices, but not at the price where 11 year old cannot contact you in an emergency when they have missed the bus which is the very reason they have the phones ,,. Go for the straight forward Vodafone security apps it has got to be simpler.

I love the idea of elegance and intricacy, but whether it is in a piece of clothing or a fragrance, the intricacy must appear as simplicity, says Fashion Designer Carolina Herrera of the esthetic sense that has driven her during her 17 years as a fashion designer. I think that standard has served me well; women seem to love my clothes. I am extremely grateful for the success that they have given me.
Spoken without a stitch of ego, the statement reveals a great deal about Carolina Herrera. Her entirely straightforward approach toward her business which Herrera founded 17 years ago after being prompted by fashion legend Diana Vreeland and her great friend, the late Count Rudi Crespi is perfectly balanced by her entirely impassioned feelings about her late parents; her husband Reinaldo Herrera; her four daughters, Mercedes, Ana Luisa, Carolina Adriana and Patricia; the family house in Venezuela, La Vega, built in 1590, and of course, her dogs, Gaston and Floyd.
Along with the newly launched 212 Men, the counterpart of 212 Carolina Herrera for women and the sixth of her fragrances eleven years, she oversees an international design firm that encompasses her signature fashion collection, a bridal collection, fragrances, color cosmetics and accessories. Sales extend around the world (U.S., South America, Europe, the Middle East and the Far East). I started doing this because I loved fashion, she says. But I had no idea what it would become. I can only say that I am very lucky my mother instilled such discipline and structure in my life!
Herrera, born in Caracas, Venezuela, descends from a long line of Venezuelan landowners and statesman. The designer is animated in her affection for her parents, Guillemmo and Maria Cristina Pacanins, admitting that she is spoiled as far as men"s looks are concerned because her father was so dashing. She refers with love to her mother"s cultivated aura. She was very strict, but not in a loud way, Herrera adds. There was a time and place for everything. I have carried that with me all my life.
That noble sensibility, combined with a slightly wicked charm, enabled Herrrera to make the transition from her halcyon days as a chic and renowned beauty on the international scene where she spent days with royals and nights with the Warhol crowd to a designer with such talent and business acumen that she could not be ignored.
After receiving a positive reaction to a fashion collection she created in 1980 as a test, she moved with her family to New York from Caracas in 1981 and formed Carolina Herrera, Ltd. Her exquisitely detailed, expertly crafted creations were immediately in demand by specialty stores, and chic, sophisticated women the world over turned to Herrera"s label for the type of impeccable suits, dresses and gowns she instinctively knew how to design the legacy of having grown up in a world where women wore only couture.
Herrera herself had attended her first couture show, that of Cristobal Balenciaga, at the age of 13 with her grandmother.
In 1988 Herrera expanded her business with the launch of her first fragrance, Carolina Herrera, a heady and romantic blend of the tuberose and jasmine essences she had always worn. A men"s fragrance, Carolina Herrera for Men, bowed in 1991. In 1994, Herrera debuted her third scent the floral Flore. Aqua Flore, its lighter counterpart, debuted in 1996.
In a business climate that says continue to do or die, Herrera thrives. The best specialty stores sell her fashion and fragrances worldwide and her first flagship retail store is scheduled to open in Spring 2000 in New York. A line of signature color cosmetics debuted earlier this year in Spain, the Middle East and most recently in England. Herrera"s enormously successful accessories collection, one of the fastest growing divisions in the company, features beautifully detailed, cut velvet and silk block print scarves, and a line of handbags as chic as a faux croc shoulder bag and as playful as a mini velvet box.
Of her latest endeavor, Herrera credits her daughter, Carolina Adriana, as muse and collaborator. The 212 Men fragrance line is sensual, transparent and woody in nature, contrived of citrus and essence leaves, sandalwood, amber notes and white musks. It is a reflection of the charming cosmopolitan man about town, forever savvy and debonair, and every woman"s ideal.
With my clothing and fragrances, says Herrera, I believe that it is best to be realistic, but to always mix a bit of fantasy with reality. It"s the same with life, really.
For Fall 2012 designers are inspired by a wide range of influences, from the elaborate details of brocade and metallic gold embellishments to the dynamic mix of military chic and power pantsuits. Colo

Did South West Beds MP Andrew Selous notice a swing to the left or right when he tried his hand at indoor green bowling?
Mr Selous had a go at the game when he visited Dunstable & District Disabled Sports (DADDS).
The politician has been very supportive of the organisation due to the dedication and commitment of volunteers who help run the charity.
DADDS is an organisation, founded 18 years ago by the late Marie Johnson, who saw a need for local facilities for disabled people to play sports. Sessions are held each Tuesday between 1pm and 3pm at Dunstable Leisure Centre and often more than 100 people attend. If you are interested in becoming a volunteer or just want to know more about DADDS, contact Roger Sharp on 01582 606405.
The picture shows Mr Selous in action on the bowling green overseen by David Lovelock, one of the volunteers.

I need some help, I am a complete beginner with C++ and I am try to develop a program for the company I work for.
What I need is two applications a host app and a server app.
When loaded the host needs to search for all available servers and show a list to choose from. It will then need to send and receive data to and from the server in real time.
When loaded the server needs to broadcast its location so the host app can locate it. It then needs to receive from the host app, process it and send it back in real time.
I would like to have this run on both Windows 7 x32 and x64.
I do not want someone to do all of this for me as I want to use this as a learning experience I just need some guidance. if possible I would like to use Skype or MSN to communicate.

Memphis 2000 watt blown PS
I have a memphis mojo 2000w amp with blown power supply. Looks like missing rubber supports caused a rectifier to crack and a power supply fet to crack and POOF! A completely burned power supply.
I did the A1266s, one was split in two. I got ~5V to the gates.
The amp has been worked on before (mismatched date codes in the ouput section) and I thought it was supposed to have IRF3205s.
When I opened it they were all IRF1010E with 22Ohm resistors. Is that the original setup in these amps? My Orion was 22ohm/IRF3205.

Jakarta (AFP) Nov 13, 2006
At least 1,000 orangutans are estimated to have been killed by fires and land clearing in Indonesia this year, a wildlife expert said here Monday. Willie Smits from the Gibbon Foundation said the fires that swept Borneo during the dry season and the intensive drive to create palm oil plantations have either killed the orangutans or driven them closer to human settlement, where they are killed as pests.
"A thousand is a minimum estimate," said Smits, a founder of the Borneo Orangutan Survival (BOS) project that operates on the Indonesian part of the island.
Trafficking of Orangutans also presents a continuing threat, with animals from Borneo being smuggled to various parts of the globe, Smits said.
Orangutans are a protected species, the only great apes living outside of Africa, and can only be found on the islands of Borneo and Sumatra.
In 2002 a study estimated that just 56,000 orangutans lived on Borneo and 7,000 in Sumatra.
Only one in three orangutan young are estimated to live, lessening the long-term chance of survival for the species.
"If they are to survive, we have to deal with this forest fires and palm oil plantations," Smits said.
The BOS says it rescued 137 injured orangutans in Central Kalimantan region alone during the fire season, and found the remains of scores of others.
"It is only a small fraction. We are not looking at all other areas where BOS is not operating," said Smits.
Large parts of Sumatra and Borneo have been set ablaze in recent months, an ecological disaster caused by illegal land-clearing fires ahead of the upcoming planting season. Weak enforcement of the law has allowed the practice to continue.
Smouldering underground fires in peatbogs and in subterranean coal veins are particulary hard to extinguish and can burn undetected for months.

Glued to your phone watching March Madness? Wondering where you should go in Missoula to watch the next match up? Look no further.
Little Caesars is making "March Madness" for everyone more interesting not just NCAA Basketball fans, with their possible free pizza promotion...
In December of 2013, a group of Montana Grizzly football boosters sent a letter to University of Montana President Royce Engstrom asking him to seek review of NCAA sanctions imposed on the football program.
The 2013 Montana Grizzly football season may have ended in disappointing fashion, but one after another, speakers at the Sunday December 8th football awards banquet encouraged players, parents and fans to consider how remarkable a season it was.
University of Montana officials are expecting a sold-out record crowd at the Saturday night August 31 opening game, as the Montana Grizzlies host the Appalachian State Mountaineers at 7 p.m.
After a long, hot summer, and an NCAA report in the rear-view mirror, the University of Montana football team prepares for the 2013 season, as players report on Sunday, with the first practice on Tuesday, August 6.
The NCAA report involving the Montana Grizzly football program was released on Friday. University of Montana President Royce Engstrom said the university's self-imposed sanctions were instrumental in the NCAA's findings, and that the university sought legal experts to help in that effort.

Mexico City, Mexico
Soumaya Museum
66,000 pieces of art, donated by one of the world's richest men.
Housing a whopping 66,000 pieces of predominantly Central American and European art, the Soumaya Museum was donated and constructed entirely by one of the world's richest men, Carlos Slim Helú.
Towering over a plaza in Northern Mexico City, the Soumaya Museum covers 170,000 square feet and glides elegantly six stories into the skyline. Opened in 2011, the shiny ethereal building cost $70 million to build, but resulted in a chic complex of galleries accessible through a narrow entrance in the building's front.
Although the museum was a donation from Carlos Slim, each part of its construction was an inside job. HIs son in law, Fernando Romero, designed the massive structure and the exterior is covered in 16,000 hexagonal aluminum tiles from an aluminum plant Carlos Slim owns. The entire structure coyly enriches Mexico City's cultural landscape while padding the pockets of the museum's benefactor.
While the modern architecture of the Soumaya Museum has drawn praise for its ingenuity and partnership with Frank Gehry, many have also derided the building as an eyesore. One critic even went as far as to attack Carlos Slim, saying that money can buy everything, except taste. Worth an estimated $65 billion, it's at least nice to see Carlos Slim give a little back to his country. A museum is certainly a better way to spend your billions than writing your name in the sand of your private island.
Know Before You Go
Admission is always free. Open daily 10:30 - 6:30 all days except Tuesday when the museum is closed. Please note that this location houses the Plaza Carso galleries only. There is another entire building of art that is a companion to the Soumaya in Southern Mexico City in Plaza Loreto.

Hernando De Soto dubbed by some as the world's leading voice on capitalism, will join an early debate on the role of governance at the upcoming Dubai Strategy Forum, scheduled for October 28-30 2002 in Dubai.
The potentially buoyant debate, possibly the first time the need for a shake-up in the style of governance that prevails across the region is discussed on a public stage, sees De Soto head-to-head with government ministers, including Pakistan's Minister of Finance, Shaukat Aziz.
De Soto has served at executive committee level and at the helm of many leading corporations, such as Swiss Bank, Peru's General Reserve Bank and the General Agreement for Tariffs and Trade (GATT).
Looking at participation at the Forum, the meeting has already attracted the attention of leading brands, who have committed their support as Organizing Partners. These are Dubai Media City, the rapidly emerging global media hub, Enoc, a leader in upstream and downstream activities in the oil and gas sector, Emirates, the UAE's national airline, the GCC's leading English newspaper, Gulf News; National Bank of Dubai, Dubai's national bank and PricewaterhouseCoopers, the international firm of auditors and business advisors. — (menareport.com)

House Rules
Main Page >> House Rules
The DM will list any changes to the core rules in this space. Click here for character creation rules.
Benefit Points
This is a system to reward players in-game for things they do to help make the campaign better overall. (Stolen, then modified from the rules posted by Wolfhound of Horn of the North fame.)
Benefit Points function just like Action Points, with three exceptions:
- Persistent – Bennies don't go away after a long rest.
- Maximum – You may have a maximum of three (3) Bennies. They're meant to be used, not hoarded.
- Unrestricted – You may spend as many Bennies as you have in an encounter, but only once per turn.
You earn Benefit Points by contributing to the campaign fiction (see below), or when your PC has a Crowning Moment of Awesome (DM's discretion).
Campaign Contributions
A fluffy player character (a PC with at least 250 words describing appearance, background, and personality) begins play with one Bennie.
Every time a player posts a new character prelude, journal entry, or interlude of at least 250 words, his or her PC will receive the player's choice of either one (1) Benefit Point OR two (2) healing surges. More substantial contributions or collaborations may earn more rewards.
Rules Changes
Experience Points
Rather than track experience points, the DM will simply grant ad hoc level-ups every few sessions.
Healing Outside of Combat
When not engaged in a combat encounter, characters who are down a number of hit points equal to or less than their healing surge value regain all hit points after a short rest.
I found this article on a blog with a simple system for implementing morale into a 4E game, in order to speed things along. Here is the summary of the system.

Warning! Super long post!
When I hear the town name Jasper, and it just happens to be in Texas, I immediately think of James Byrd, Jr. I'm sure you do, too. On June 7, 1998, one of the worst cases of racial crimes occurred here. James Byrd, Jr. age 48, was dragged for three miles behind a pick-up truck on an asphalt road. He remained conscious throughout most of the terrifying ordeal and was killed when his body hit the edge of a culvert, severing his head and right arm. The murderers – Shawn Berry, Lawrence Russell Brewer, and John King – then drove on for another mile before dumping his torso in front of an African-American cemetary. The horrific crime shocked the nation.

A member of the Dracena family, the Warneckii is a slow growing plant that may reach 4 feet or more when mature. Warneckiis have very long, tough leaves that are green with white bands running along the edge. Newer varieties include Compacta and Lemon Lime.
This is a very popular plant because of its easy care. They make a good choice for home or office.
WATER: Warneckii likes to have the soil kept moist (but not wet) at all times. If your leaves develop black spots your plant may not be getting enough water. Occasional misting is beneficial.
LIGHT: Light shade or indirect light are the best choices for this plant although they will tolerate full shade.
TEMPERATURE: They like average temperatures of 55 - 65 degrees and higher humidity.
One problem with these plants is getting brown tips and yellow edges on the leaves. The cause of this may be that the plant isn't getting enough humidity. Warneckii likes high humidity. Under watering and being too cold can have similar effects on this plant.
These plants are often available in 6" and 8" pots.

SCOTUS Guts Voting Rights Act
Roberts court rules that VRA so successful, no longer necessary
By Michael King,
12:54PM, Tue. Jun. 25, 2013
By a 5-4 vote, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Section 4 of the Voting Rights Act – which determines state coverage -- is unconstitutional. Without specified states for "preclearance" review, primarily in the South, it will be virtually impossible to prevent burdensome rules designed to suppress turnout, especially among minority voters.
Although Austin eyes are currently riveted by the drama at the Texas Senate, where Sen. Wendy Davis is filibustering the bill that would severely restrict abortion rights and women's health care in Texas, there are other headlines today. Specifically, the opinion of the Roberts Supreme Court (striking down Sec. 4 of the VRA) means that -- failing new and unlikely coverage standards from a divided Congress -- the Department of Justice will not be able to enforce the Sec. 5 provisions that protect minority voters from discrimination in election laws.
Texas Republican politicians were quick to welcome the decision, because it means they will be able to impose previously contested voting regulations. Attorney General Greg Abbott announced that the state would immediately enforce its restrictive "Voter ID" law (until this morning under legal challenge); and legislators speculated that the Texas redistricting maps, also contested for their negative effects on minority voters, will remain in place, perhaps with no further action from the Legislature or Gov. Rick Perry.
We'll have more ongoing coverage of the effects of the decision on the NewsDesk blog and in the Chronicle print edition.

Those of you looking forward to witnessing Meryl Streep's potentially Oscar-worthy portrayal of Margaret Thatcher will have to wait a bit longer than expected. Fortunately, the release date is just a few weeks later than what was originally expected.
According to Deadline, The Iron Lady was expected to release on December 16th, however The Weinstein Company has pushed the date off to December 30th for the limited release, with the wider break for the film to come in January, just in time for the Golden Globe and Oscar nominations.
The Iron Lady will star Streep as former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The cast also includes Anthony Head, Jim Braodbent, and Olivia Colman. Streep is already getting Oscar buzz for the role. If her performance is up to par with her previous roles, Streep could be looking at her 17th Oscar nomination. As Deadline points out, if Streep were to win an Oscar for the part, it would only be the third win in her career. Not only do her nominations far out-number her wins, but she also apparently holds the record for that.
It might seem like we're getting ahead of ourselves in speculating over an Oscar nomination for a film that hasn't even hit theaters yet, however given the challenge of the role in playing Thatcher, added to Streep's track-record with tackling strong female leads with poise and grace, it's probably not all that far off the mark to suggest she's going to knock this performance out of the park.

The son of a taxi driver killed in a fiery crash following a vehicle-to-vehicle shooting on the Las Vegas Strip has filed a negligence lawsuit against the man being held in Los Angeles as a fugitive on Nevada homicide charges.
A civil negligence lawsuit filed in Nevada state court seeks at least $20,000 in damages from Ammar Harris on behalf of cab driver Michael Boldon's 37-year-old son son, Michael A. Boldon, and his estate.
Attorney Lawrence Smith said he's trying to get answers about the Feb. 21 crash — including why the taxi exploded in flames and whether Boldon and passenger Sandra Sutton-Wasmund could have survived if there had been no fire.
Harris was arrested Feb. 28 in Los Angeles and faces an extradition hearing on April 12.

Operation Protect Your Home Comes To Long Island
Senator Johnson, County Executive Suozzi, Host Foreclosure Relief Forum
Long Island homeowners struggling to avoid foreclosure will be able to have their loans reviewed by bank and mortgage servicing company representatives on Saturday, June 7, during a forum hosted by Senator Craig M. Johnson and Nassau County Executive Tom Suozzi.
The event is the latest part of Operation Protect Your Home, a program aimed at helping those at risk of foreclosure that is jointly sponsored by members of the State Senate with participation by the New York State Banking Department and various lending institutions and counseling agencies.
More than 4,000 letters have been sent to at-risk homeowners in the area inviting them to participate at the forum, which will be held from noon to 7 p.m. at the Joseph M. Barry Career and Technical Educational Center (BOCES), 1196 Prospect Ave., Westbury. During this event, mortgage lenders, counselors and attorneys will work with individual borrowers on identifying potential ways to prevent unnecessary foreclosures. Various agencies present at the forum will provide information about government programs. Additionally, there will be a series of presentations promoting financial literacy, with particular focus on credit and foreclosure. The meetings are free and open to the public. However, invited borrowers whose mortgages are scheduled to reset or borrowers who are already late on their payments will have priority.
"Nassau has been bearing the brunt of this foreclosure crisis," Senator Johnson, (D-Nassau), said. "It is our hope that by bringing the banks and the homeowners together here, we can replicate and build upon the success that Operation Protect Your Home has had in other parts of the state. I thank County Executive Suozzi for partnering with us in this critically important program."
As of April, there were 911 foreclosed properties in Nassau County, accounting for 32 percent of all foreclosures in the five boroughs, as well as Nassau and Westchester counties, according to a report released by Senate Deputy Minority Leader Jeff Klein, who spearheaded Operation Protect Your Home. The communities of Elmont and Westbury had the second and third highest number of bank-owned properties in Nassau, with 70 and 48 properties respectively.
"The loss of a home during a financial crisis is personally devastating," said County Executive Suozzi. "This program will bring homeowners, banks and counselors together to mitigate losses and prevent unnecessary foreclosures. We will do our best to offer Nassau County residents any assistance that will help those at risk of losing their homes. I thank Senator Johnson for taking this initiative."
The Westbury event is the latest in a series of Operation Protect Your Home forums that have been held across the state. To date, this program has helped more than 1,600 working and middle class families from Brooklyn to Buffalo avoid foreclosure.
Lender representatives from Countrywide, Chase, Citi, Option One, Home Loan Services, Ocwen, Wells Fargo, Wilshire, and WAMU will be participating in the forum.
For more information on the forum, contact Abdul Hakim, Director of Community Affairs for Senator Craig M. Johnson, at 516.746.5923.

Salt Lake City vegans (I noticed one new member from here and I'm sure there are others who browse the board) the Ching Sanctuary is doing vegan cooking classes!
They are held every other Monday -- the next one is April 7 -- and they're only $7 or $6 if you bring a friend.
I've only gone to two classes so far -- cheezy sauces and indian cuisine -- but they were phenomenal! The next class is BBQ ribs (I have no idea how they're going to make vegan BBQ ribs, don't ask me )
So, those of you reading this who live nearby, you must come by and give it a try. You won't regret it.
just my sales pitch

In a hotly contested Western Conference battle, every game counts for those teams fighting for their postseason lives. That makes the way the Utah Jazz came out against the Oklahoma City Thunder quite baffling. After a listless, somewhat apathetic first half, the Jazz were blown out by the Thunder, 110-87.
Utah started well, jumping to a 12-6 lead midway through the first quarter. Then, in the blink of an eye, Oklahoma City went on a thunderous 44-16 run the rest of the half. The Jazz were absolutely atrocious from the floor, going a full eight minutes without scoring a single point. The Jazz players refused to drive to the basket, settling instead for long, contested jumpers. Even though the Thunder was not firing on all cylinders, it was throttling the Jazz with ease to take a 50-28 lead at the break.
The second half was much improved for Utah, as it was outscored by just one point, 60-59. The most excitement the second half produced was some chippy play by both teams, resulting in a pair of flagrant fouls and five of the technical variety. The Jazz made a decent run, but never got closer than a 15-point deficit.
Starts with the starters: As they tend to do, Oklahoma City's starters set the tone early on and backed it up throughout. After a few minutes of rocky play, the quintet simply dominated. They put 59 points on the board, compared to their counterpart's paltry 26. The Thunder quintet did so well that they were able to rest the entire fourth quarter. No one played more than Kevin Durant's 29 minutes. The sole blemish on their performance was the 19 turnovers they committed.1 comment on this story
Conversely, the Jazz opening five faltered. They connected on just 9 of 35 from the floor. Not a single starter reached double-digit scoring. They, too, sat the entire final stanza, but suffice it to say, it was a less than satisfying rest for them.
Odds and ends:
— Excluding Hasheem Thabeet, every Oklahoma City player had a positive +/- mark. Earl Watson was the only Jazz player who could make that claim. OKC's Kendrick Perkins was scoreless, yet was +25. It was that kind of evening all around.
— Utah shot 11 more shots, yet made nine less than its opponent.
— There were a whopping 42 collective turnovers Wednesday night.
— Former Jazz guards Derek Fisher and Ronnie Brewer tallied 10 and four points, respectively for the Thunder.
